When Balur heard Hong Chengchou's words, a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face, and he said to Hong Chengchou in front of him.
"Well! Go ahead and get ready!"
Looking at Balur's back, Kong Youde looked at Hong Chengchou with a hint of doubt in his eyes and said: "According to Balur's words, it is most likely a civil strife! And it is probably a civil strife among most people.
, taking advantage of the night to change the owner of the entire city, there is no problem!
Otherwise, if an army enters the city, there will definitely be noise, and if someone kills people, the noise will definitely not be small! How can there be no sound at all??"
Kong Youde looked at Hong Chengchou in front of him with doubt in his eyes.
With a faint smile in his eyes, Hong Chengchou looked at Kong Youde in front of him and said, "What if those people entered the city under the guise of full Qing cavalry?"
Do you think the Green Camp soldiers have the guts to attack these Manchu cavalry??"
"It makes sense for you to say that! But there should have been many knights in the city! They should at least be able to recognize them!"
Kong Youde still looked at Hong Chengchou in front of him with confusion in his eyes.
“I came to Shanhaiguan to see it!”
Hong Chengchou looked at Kong Youde in front of him with a sigh in his eyes, and said with a wry smile: "The Manqi stationed in the city have long been corrupted. Even if there is an army entering the city, it will be the soldiers from the Green Battalion who are responsible for inviting them!
So, who do you think can do this??"
"But, these are all your guesses! How did Hauge come to Shanhaiguan? Fly here??"
Kong Youde still looked at Hong Chengchou in front of him with confusion in his eyes.
"Mongolian steppe!"
Hong Chengchou said to Kong Youde in front of him with a serious face.
Kong Youde: "...It's just like a joke! Anyway, I think there is no evidence at all to prove that Hauge is inside Shanhaiguan! Anyway, we are going to break through Shanhaiguan. Is he inside? The city
Once it is broken, it will naturally become clear!”
"kindness!"
Hong Chengchou nodded with emotion in his eyes, but his eyes were still full of doubts.
He knew that there was a high probability of Hauge in this city, but he didn't know how to convince Kong Youde, but it seemed that there was really nothing to convince.
Anyway, no matter what, just like Kong Youde said, no matter what, we must attack the city!
Who is in the city doesn’t seem to be that important!
It’s just that Hong Chengchou thought too much!
Thinking of this, Hong Chengchou smiled bitterly and shook his head.
At this time, on the city wall.
Hauge held a telescope and looked at the camp of Hong Chengchou and Kong Youde, his expression slightly solemn.
"The people coming this time should be the elite Green Battalion who are responsible for attacking the city! I don't know who is leading it, but there is a high probability that it should be that guy Hong Chengchou!
This guy is the best at attacking cities, Dorgon will never let this go!"
Hauge's face was slightly solemn.
"Don't worry, General! Shanhaiguan is known as the first pass in the world, and it is not that easy to break!"
Wang Ting said to Hauge in front of him with a smile in his eyes.
"We just need to pay attention. Artillery and explosives are the two things that cause the greatest damage to the city wall! We really need to pay attention to this. Others, their army cannot break through our city wall so easily!"
Wang Ting said firmly to Hauge in front of him.
Hearing Wang Ting's words, Hauge felt a little relieved.
"kindness!"
Hauge nodded.
With that said, the two began to quickly arrange the defense of the city next to them.
As time goes by.
Gradually the sun began to set in the west.
Hong Chengchou finally began to organize his soldiers to attack!
Tens of thousands of soldiers lined up under the Shanhaiguan Pass, and dozens of cannons began to be loaded. The soldiers quickly pushed siege chariots and ladders, and quickly began to approach the city wall.
On the city wall, the soldiers began to shoot arrows downwards.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Countless arrows were shot towards Hong Chengchou and others in front of them.
But Hong Chengchou was naturally prepared. The soldiers rushing in front almost all held a shield in front of them, while the soldiers behind without the shield leaned behind the soldier holding the shield.
The ladder was quickly set up.
The soldiers held shields and quickly approached the city wall.
The rolling stones fell from the city wall. Those soldiers holding shields were lucky enough not to be hit by the rolling stones. However, there were also many people who were hit by the rolling stones and fell to the ground with huge force. They fell directly to death.
!
Countless ladders are set up on the towering city wall. These green battalion soldiers are all elites who are very good at attacking cities and are very safe.
The siege chariots kept hitting the city wall, but Shanhaiguan's strength was not comparable to that of ordinary city walls. No matter how they hit it, the city wall would not move at all!
Under the sunset, the siege battle was very fierce!
Soon, the fire oil was sprinkled down, and the flames quickly blocked the progress of many people attacking the city.
However, many soldiers also attacked the city, but the people on the city were experienced soldiers, and the two sides began to engage in a tug-of-war.
Very tragic!
"So tragic!"
Hong Chengchou's face looked a little unsightly.
But Kong Youde's face was very calm.
"Master Hong, this is a siege. I thought you were mentally prepared for this!"
Hong Chengchou smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying nothing.
The brutal siege continued into the night.
Ming Jin withdraws his troops!
Such a siege battle can usually only be a tug-of-war to see which of the two sides can't hold on first. After all, if you want to succeed in one battle, even if there is a gap in strength between the two sides, unless the gap in will is huge!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to capture the city so easily.
This is true for ordinary cities, let alone the most powerful pass like Shanhaiguan!
The siege lasted for several days.
This kind of thing cannot be hidden from anyone!
Li Zicheng received the news on the second day of the siege.
"Shanhaiguan Rebellion??"
Li Zicheng looked at the spy in front of him with a look of surprise in his eyes and asked.
"Yes! Sir! Shanhaiguan suddenly rebelled, and then Hong Chengchou and Kong Youde led an army of 50,000 to attack Shanhaiguan!"
"Good thing! Great thing!"
Li Zicheng's eyes showed excitement.
Niu Jinxing on the side had a smile on his face. He looked at Li Zicheng in front of him and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! God bless you!"
"Hahaha! I hope that guy Hong Chengchou is killed by a cannonball from the city wall!"
Li Zicheng said with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Yes! King!"
"Master Niu, what should we do now??"
At this time, Li Zicheng suddenly thought of something. There was a trace of hesitation in his eyes, and he looked at Niu Jinxing in front of him and asked.
