Chapter 564: Wounds
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Dense gunfire sounded, and more than a thousand soldiers from the palace were lined up at the gap.
They pointed their guns at the gap, and the Beidi soldiers who crossed the city wall kept falling.
In front of them were chevaux de frise and other things.
"Go back immediately, we don't need you here for the time being, the north gate needs you more." Guan Tong was also at the gap.
Seeing reinforcements coming, he waved his hand.
Although a section of the wall of the West City collapsed, it did not mean that the West City could not hold on.
At first, he was a little panicked.
But he placed soldiers at the gap and immediately curbed the attack of the Beidi.
The Beidi soldiers who rushed in from the gap became their live targets.
They didn't even have the opportunity to fight with the soldiers of the palace.
At the same time, on the walls of the West City that did not collapse, the soldiers were still fighting, killing any Beidi soldiers who dared to climb the wall.
Seeing this, the lieutenants had to lead their troops back and tell Qin Shan the news.
"You each go back to your own defensive positions." Qin Shan nodded.
Although Guan Tong is usually careless, he will not act recklessly on the battlefield.
He said that if he can hold on, he will definitely hold on.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly found that a section of the fire wall was extinguished.
The Beidi soldiers seemed to be throwing the bodies of their companions into the trench.
The numerous bodies immediately dimmed the flames in the trench.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shan felt uneasy.
Sure enough, when this section of the fire wall was extinguished, the fire walls in other places also gradually extinguished.
The brightness of the entire battlefield weakened again.
"The Beidi people are really cruel." Qin Shan smiled bitterly.
He naturally did not expect the fire wall to burn all the time.
After all, in the years of fighting with Dasong, Beidi had seen all kinds of traps.
But he thought that the Beidi generals would let the soldiers dig and fill, which would take up more of his time.
As a result, they used local materials and directly used the bodies.
"Anda!"
The fire wall gradually extinguished, and the roar of the Beidi soldiers became louder and louder.
This is more Beidi soldiers approaching the city wall.
At the same time, the sound of "ding ding dang dang" chiseling the city wall sounded again.
The soldiers of the palace fired fiercely at the place where the sound came from.
Immediately, the sound disappeared with a scream.
But after a while, the sound sounded again.
Qin Shan's heart was hanging, he was worried that the situation at the west gate would happen at the north gate.
Just thinking about it, suddenly a loud noise came, almost shattering his eardrums, and the city wall under his feet shook violently.
Just 50 meters away from him, a sky-high flame rose.
It was even more powerful than the previous explosions of gunpowder barrels.
After the bricks and stones were blown into the sky, they fell like raindrops.
Many of them hit the soldiers of the palace, injuring some soldiers.
And a gap of seven or eight meters appeared in the city wall.
Barely stabilizing his body, Qin Shan's face changed drastically. He immediately summoned the four lieutenants just now and led two thousand soldiers down the city wall.
At this time, hundreds of Beidi soldiers had already rushed through the gap.
"Anda!" Seeing them, these Beidi soldiers rushed straight over, their faces full of fierceness.
The soldiers of the royal palace were not afraid, holding their muskets tightly, equipped with bayonets, and fighting hand-to-hand with these Beidi soldiers who rushed forward.
After joining the army, with sufficient food and strong training, their physical fitness is not inferior to the Beidi soldiers.
Even because of the bayonet skills condensed in the battlefield, the hand-to-hand combat is more fierce.
They don't fight hand-to-hand at ordinary times, because the rifled gun provides them with the same advantage as horse archery.
When fighting, they naturally have to use this advantage.
But when necessary, they can still transform into a traditional hand-to-hand combat army.
"Kill!"
A soldier of the royal palace raised his bayonet and stabbed the Beidi soldier who rushed over.
Seeing this, the Beidi soldier slashed the bayonet of the royal palace soldier to the right with a side chop, avoiding the blow aimed at the heart.
The royal palace soldier was not panicked.
He had practiced such a battle countless times in the army.
I saw his bayonet follow the trend and stab downwards.
The Beidi soldier was unable to react and was stabbed in the thigh, causing him to scream.
The soldier of the palace drew out his bayonet and stabbed him in the chest.
The conical tip of the three-pointed bayonet easily pierced the armor of the Beidi soldier.
With a muffled groan, the Beidi soldier fell to the ground and died.
Other soldiers of the palace also dealt with the Beidi soldiers who were approaching.
Qin Shan nodded slightly when he saw this, although he was very confident in the melee ability of the soldiers of the palace.
But at present, there was a huge gap between his and the Beidi soldiers, and melee would be at a disadvantage.
In the end, he still had to rely on the power and range of the rifle.
So, he immediately ordered the soldiers to put up chevaux de frise at the gap.
At the same time, he asked the soldiers to line up and shoot the Beidi soldiers rushing through the gap.
Beidi camp.
After a section of the city wall of the north city was blown up, Muller Hongzhen laughed softly.
For him, Ningcheng was basically in his hands.
These gaps on the city wall were like wounds on a person's body.
Focusing on attacking these wounds would accelerate the bleeding of Ningcheng.
With his superior military strength, Ningcheng will definitely belong to them.
Just as he was feeling proud, there was a commotion in the tent.
Someone pointed to the sky.
Mule Hongzhen looked at it and his face suddenly became embarrassed.
In the east, more than ten fireballs kept moving towards Ningcheng.
