I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 591 Daishan’s powerlessness

Chapter 591 Daishan’s powerlessness
Accompanied by the long sound of the horn, the gate of the Ming Army suddenly opened.

Several groups of cavalry first galloped out from the camp gate and headed left and right. Then several large flags appeared inside the gate and filed out of it.

Du Du endured the thick smoke in the city, steeled himself, opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the Ming army's camp, hoping to see the words on the banner.But the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, because the words "Jianzhou", "Haixi", "Haidong" and "Manchuria" were clearly written on these big flags.

Du Du knew the organization of the Ming army and knew that these battalions were formed by the soldiers of the Eight Banners who surrendered to the Ming army.

This is to make the Jurchens kill each other.As soon as Du Du saw this, he understood Ming Jun's intention, and his expression changed from calm at first to panic.

The Ming army camp was still dispatching troops in an orderly manner. Following these banners were the soldiers and horses that came out in separate columns. They were led by the servant camps of Heshun and He Xiong, followed by siege equipment and various Jurchens. Soldiers and horses filed out of the camp.

Seeing the slightly organized team following the footsteps of the servant camp and slowly heading towards Sarhu, seeing Du Du's scalp numb, he quickly said to everyone:

"Hurry, quickly report to Daishan that the army is preparing to attack the city! In addition, call all the troops under the city wall. Those who can go up the city wall can go up the city wall. People on other city walls don't need to guard other directions. Give them all to me. Guard the west wall!"

"The slave understands."

The guards with white flags on the side saw the Ming army soldiers and horses constantly gathering under the city. They were so densely packed that they felt frightened for a while.

They already understood the seriousness of the matter and immediately left to report the news, while Du Du continued to calm down and looked at the situation below the city.

The gathering of soldiers and horses of the Ming army continued. Following the "Jianzhou", "Haixi", "Haidong" and other battalions that came out of the Ming Dynasty, Sichuan soldiers and white pole soldiers also filed out and stationed in the Ming Dynasty. Behind the Jurchen soldiers and horses.

When everyone was ready, Chen Liangbi, the governor of the capital camp, and others led the generals of the capital camp, Amin, Mang Gurtai, and He Shixian, who had just arrived, and filed out of the gate.

When Chen Ce, Heshun, He Xiong, Zhang Mingshi and others outside the camp saw this, they also stepped forward and bowed to Chen Liangbi.

"The last generals Chen Ce, Qin Bangping, Heshun, He Xiong and others have met the Governor-General."

"Get up quickly!"

As soon as Chen Liangbi came out of the Ming army camp, he saw the Sarhu city wall that had been blasted with several holes by Krug artillery, as well as the thick smoke and raging fire inside the city wall.

This made Chen Liangbi feel very good, and he immediately waved and shouted at Chen Ce and others who were kneeling on the ground, and then looked towards the crowd, seemingly looking for something.

"Where is Zhang Mingshi!"

As soon as Chen Liangbi called him, Zhang Mingshi, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Zhejiang Battalion who had just arrived from the artillery position, immediately stepped out and said:

"The end is here!"

"Well, I have long heard that Governor Xiong said that you are good at using firearms, and now it seems that it is true. With so many Kru cannons handed to you, and you can still wave your fingers like an arm, it seems that you are indeed capable. Now in Saarhu City I owe a lot of credit to you for being like this. However, I have been unable to sleep due to the noise of shelling in the camp these days. I will have to settle the account with you afterwards."

When everyone heard Chen Liangbi's joke, they immediately laughed.Zhang Mingshi was very happy when he saw Chen Liangbi's compliment. He would not let go of such a good opportunity, so he handed over his hand and said:
"Governor Chen is ridiculously complimentary. I don't dare to take credit for my humble position. Commander-in-Chief Tan has good command and the artillerymen of the Beijing camp are well-trained. Anyone in a humble position can achieve such results."

As soon as Zhang Mingshi said this, everyone nodded.Especially for the generals in the Beijing camp, most of the artillerymen operating in the past few days were transferred from the three armies of the Beijing camp. To affirm the strength of the artillerymen in the Beijing camp is to affirm themselves. How could they not be happy about this.

When Chen Liangbi heard this, he smiled and continued to praise a few more words, then walked to He Xiong and Heshun, and then looked at the Jurchen general behind them.

"Today's attack on Sarhu City requires you to take the main attack. I wonder if you are confident in taking Sarhu."

If Xitai, Tunbulu, Zhengaru and others were asked to attack Sarhu before, they may not have the confidence yet and feel jealous of the Ming Dynasty, feeling that they are wasting their own strength.However, after the Ming army stationed troops under the city of Sarhu and used Krug artillery to continuously bombard Sarhu in the past two days, everyone was completely convinced.

The tragic situation in Sarhu has proved that their choice was so correct. They were even constantly grateful that they surrendered, otherwise they would have been bombarded by hundreds of Krupp cannons and would have died without a burial place.

And they finally understood how powerful the Ming Dynasty was. In the past few years, it was just a small fight and had internal instability, so it was taken advantage of by the built captives.Now that Daming has reacted and become serious, he is definitely not comparable to Jianlu.

"Please rest assured, Lord Governor, Bei Gong and others are already gearing up, hoping to seize this great power and capture the city of Sarhu for the imperial court."

Seeing Chen Liangbi's verbal inquiry, Zhen Galu was the first to stand up and reply.He is now highly regarded by Heshun and others, and the situation is one-sided, so he has made up his mind to go with Daming.Now I want to take this opportunity to win military glory for myself and earn myself great wealth.

When Chen Liangbi heard this, he looked at Amin behind him and said with a smile:

"It seems that the commander on the right has many talented people under his command. It would be great if the Eight Banners on the opposite side also think the same way as Zhen Galu."

Amin felt very bitter in his heart when he heard Zhen Galu's statement. As the former leader of the white flag and the master of Zhen Galu and others, this was the first time he had seen Zhen Galu and others in a month.

Although I thought that the Ming army would divide its power, I just didn't expect that the Ming army would move so fast.Xiangbaiqi and others were divided as soon as they arrived in Fushun, and they now have no military power.And when he and Mang Gurtai came here, they originally had hopes of meeting these people and maintaining relationships.However, Chen Liangbi did not mention this matter at all, and Zhen Galu and others did not take the initiative to ask for an audience, which immediately left him in the cold.

Now that he saw Zhen Galu expressing his stance to Chen Liangbi in front of him, he felt even worse.He could only reluctantly agree with Chen Liangbi:

"There are stubborn people in the city. Zhen Galu and others are working for the Ming Dynasty. We can eliminate them as much as possible and make great contributions to the Ming Dynasty!"

"Okay, okay, thank you very much, Commander Right, for your kind words."

The reason why Chen Liangbi went to encourage Zhen Galu and others was to see the reactions of Amin and Mang Gurtai, and to express their stance.Now seeing Amin say this, he immediately felt relieved, patted their shoulders and praised them.

In fact, no matter whether Amin is angry or not, whether Zhen Galu and others are loyal to the Ming Dynasty, it is no longer important in Chen Liangbi's view.

Because the situation is now clear. The Ming Dynasty has a strong military and the Jianlu are unable to raise their heads. Now it is only a matter of time before the Jianlu are destroyed.

If these people are obedient and follow the Ming Dynasty honestly, then Chen Liangbi will naturally not mind giving them a fortune. If these people are not wise, Chen Liangbi will not mind taking care of these people as well.

It's that simple to use your power to overwhelm others!
"Okay, then I'll wait for the good news from Zhen Galu and others. Tan Mian, Zhang Mingshi."

Tan Mian and Zhang Mingshi's faces straightened, and they immediately came out of the queue and bowed their hands.

"The end is here!"

"You two continue to order the Krug artillery to bombard Sarhu City and force the Jianlu garrison to be built!"

"Where are Xitai, Tunbulu, Zhengaru, and Gaduhun!"

The Jurchen generals on the side also came out one after another.

"The end is here."

"You bring troops from each battalion and wait for the Krupp artillery to stop and attack the city immediately. The Krupp artillery of the Beijing camp has blown open the west city wall. We must win Saarhu in this battle, otherwise we will not come back!"

After hearing Chen Liangbi's words, the four of them knew that Chen Liangbi had not left them a way out, and they would be benevolent if the battle failed.Then he looked tense and shouted loudly:

"Please rest assured, Governor, we cannot take Sarhu City and we will never come back!"

Chen Liangbi nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Chen Ce and others and continued to give instructions:
"The Sichuan soldiers and the Shizhu chieftain soldiers are the last to hold the formation, follow closely behind!"

"I will understand at the end!"

After hearing the words, everyone immediately started to move. Chen Liangbi did not return to the camp, but followed everyone and sat on the platform in front of the camp. Today he will personally watch the city of Sarhu be destroyed!
Compared with the orderly rhythm of the Ming army outside the city, the Jianlu inside the city were already in chaos.

The fire in the west of the city was still burning, but the horn of the Ming army's attack outside the city had already sounded.Before Du Du sent someone to report the news, everyone in the city heard the signal of the Ming army's attack.

Daishan was also very anxious now, secretly saying that his premonition had indeed come true.Now the fire is spreading in the west of the city, and it is too late for him to send people to put out the fire.But the Ming army came to attack at this time, maybe they took a fancy to this.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel powerless.This time he fought a very frustrating battle to defend the city. He was fully prepared and thought that the Ming army would attack with artillery, but it still ended like this.

This made him feel even more helpless. He seemed to have done nothing. The originally impregnable city wall was blown away, his strong morale was destroyed, and the city became a sea of ​​fire.

Even though he felt a huge sense of powerlessness, now that the matter had come to this, Daishan knew that he could not sit still and wait for death.So I took a few deep breaths, forced myself to calm down and organize my thoughts.

"Come here, the number of defenders on the west wall of the city is now very small. We must send people to support immediately. Order all the defenders on the east side of the city wall to transfer to the west wall. Also, why is the fire in the west of the city still burning? Send someone to tell Songuo Tuo that even if it is extinguished, If there is no big fire, at least open a few channels for me so that my troops can be mobilized.

In addition, quickly send a messenger to Jiefan City and ask Father Khan to come to the rescue quickly, otherwise Sarhu may not be able to hold it anymore! "

Following Daishan's eloquent instructions, the surrounding soldiers naturally did not dare to neglect and immediately took the order and left.

At this moment, the Ming army's shocking artillery fire sounded again.

Daishan's heart tightened when he heard the words, and then he looked to the west.

The Ming army's attack has begun!
