In a flash, seven or eight days have passed, and the time has reached the tenth day of February in the fourth year of Tianqi.
In these days, the army of the later Jin Dynasty was still not warm, not in a hurry to attack, and it was always advancing steadily. At this time, outside the south gate, the huge fortifications of the post Jin army had been built, with snow walls and shelters everywhere.
The step foundation of the later Jin Dynasty also became wider and wider, with a scale of almost 200 steps, covering a small part of the area on the west side of the south gate.
However, due to the suppression of the bird and blunderbuss of the Ming army, their foundation only reached about 13 meters, and there was a drop of 2 meters from the head of the city.
In order to make up for the two meter gap, these Tartars can only take human lives to fill in. Naturally, they dare not be impulsive.
And these days, Li Yuanqing and the children of Changsheng camp are not idle.
Li Yuanqing's "kerosene" has a considerable scale, with a reserve of more than 3000 kg.
Of course, the fat of livestock and the fat of tartar corpses are mainly auxiliary, and the core component of them is resin oil.
If it was not for the limited number of iron pots in the city, more than half of them would be used for cooking, and the number would have to be increased several times.
As a matter of fact, Li Yuanqing had already used the "kerosene" offensive as early as the Lushun defense war.
It's just that at that time, the right time, the right place and the right people didn't have to work as hard as now.
Here, if you want to use "kerosene", the most important thing to ensure is the temperature of the kerosene.
Otherwise, once the grease cools, the animal fat will condense and float on it, and it will be difficult to burn again when it is blown by the cold north wind.
But all things are relative. If there are disadvantages, they will be beneficial.
The kerosene will not burn easily, and it is convenient to store it.
Pour it directly into the barrel, it will freeze up quickly. If necessary, take it out directly and put it in the pot for heating.
On the other hand, Li Yuanqing also asked ten craftsmen to split part of the explosive bag, take out the powder and make some simple hand grenades.
The process is actually very simple.
Dig the snow in the city, touch the ground, and dig down until the gravel is dug out.
Heat the sand and stone, select the solid and hard parts, and wrap them tightly with bark and cloth together with gunpowder, lead out the fuze, and keep them in a big dry and warm tent to prevent freezing.
When in use, take it out directly, ignite the fuse and throw it at the enemy.
Although the method is local method, the Ming army has favorable terrain, so long as it is operated properly, it may not have good effect.
These days, craftsmen have rushed to more than 300 grenades, and Li Yuanqing has personally selected 50 of the strongest pitchers from the sabre and shield forces. He personally guides them every day and integrates them into his personal ranks.
In fact, the real trouble doesn't mean throwing it out.
But this thing hurt people and hurt themselves. Li Yuanqing can only force these pitchers to form instinct and follow the throwing process completely.
Xu also trained 50 or 60 pitchers, but they mainly threw explosives.
If the situation is as anxious as last time, this explosive bag can be directly added to the battlefield, and the distance between the two armies can be instantly widened.
After all, it's only early February.
If the ice melts and lakes and rivers thaw, it may be at least until April, or even summer at the end of May.
In this long period of time, Li Yuanqing also did not want his children to have too much casualties, so he had to think of other ways.
At this time, both the later Jin Dynasty and the Changsheng camp were fully prepared, waiting for the arrival of the decisive battle at the last moment.
……
February 12, the fourth year of Tianqi of the Ming Dynasty.
The sky has been clear for two days, and there are no more miscellaneous snowflakes. The snow walls of Houjin have been piled up to a height of 14 meters in front of them, and soldiers can directly climb to the head of the Ming army.
Early in the morning, the sun has just emerged from the eastern horizon, Houjin camp has a big move.
Tens of thousands of soldiers poured out of the camp and went straight to the city of the camp.
Although there are tartar tribes in the surrounding areas constantly supporting various materials, there are more than 20000 people, all of them are strong men. In addition to the tartar slaves, they are afraid to exceed 30000 people. In addition, with nearly 100000 war horses and livestock, people eat horses every day. Their economic pressure is much greater than that of Li Yuanqing.
I'm afraid the old slave can't wait. Even if Dai Shan wants to delay, it's very difficult to drag on.
With the long sound of antlers, more than a dozen cattle records of each flag, almost more than 5000 people, were pushed by cowhide chariots under the cover of two or three thousand tartar slaves, and the tigers and tigers approached the Ming army city.
Soon, they were forced to the next hundred steps of the city.
Tartar slaves began to push the top of the cowhide chariot in front of them. Behind them, the main tartar banners were eager to try, ready to rush up at any time.
On the head of the city, Li Yuanqing saw it vividly.
I'm afraid that acting as a good person also has a long memory.
Almost all of these tartar soldiers were clad in iron armour, with heart goggles on their chests, shoulder pads on their shoulders, elbow and wrist protectors on their arms, and all kinds of small flags were planted behind them.The banners of Daishan, manggurtai, Amin, yuetuo and Dudu are 150 steps away. It seems that they are all capable and will put all their eggs in one basket!
"Dog Tartars are going to fight for it Kong Youde was staring at the tartar war in front of him, his face was very solemn.
Although we are well prepared, the Tartars are 5000 elite and are all elites of various banners. We should weigh this pressure on us.
Shunzi's teeth kept biting, "I'm afraid they won't come! If the Tartars dare to come up, they must have a good taste. "
At this time, Xu Heizi was also in charge of the war before the war, and said in a cold voice: "Tartars have done too much evil! This time, let's act for heaven
Li Yuanqing's upright face did not have much expression.
Liu Qiao and Shu Murong are still watching the battle behind them.
As the saying goes, "the winner, the prince, the loser!"
The Tartars are going all out, and Li Yuanqing has no choice!
If you don't succeed, then you will become benevolent!
Even if it is destined to create countless murders, Li Yuanqing can only stand up and bear bravely!
Soon, with the cowhide chariot pushed to the front, the main force of the later Jin Dynasty also pressed hard.
Li Yuanqing waved with a big hand, "open the blunderbuss, and drive these dog scraps down to me!"
"Yes
For a moment, "bang bang bang" sounds like a series of gunshots, and intensive shooting is directed towards the Tartars.
These tartar slaves did not dare to show their heads at all. They hid behind the cowhide chariots one after another, only daring to advance cautiously by taking advantage of the gap between the Ming army's blunderbusses.
But the more fierce the Ming army resisted, it gave them more confidence. Facing the elite of Dajin, minggouzi was afraid.
It was almost a road built with corpses. Soon, the Tartar's chariot had been pushed a few steps below the wall.
The Tartars in the back rush forward one after another, and their arrows are like rain.
The sword shield soldiers of the Ming army rushed to the front, propped up the shield and surrounded the brothers behind.
Seeing that there were Tartars everywhere, Xu Heizi couldn't help it. He said to Li Yuanqing, "general, is that all right?"
A little more anxious, Li Yuanqing, don't make them laugh
Xu Heizi had to restrain his eagerness for the time being and focused his eyes on the battlefield ahead.
With the first group of Tartars rushing to the city, the long spear soldiers of the Ming army rushed up and drove them down.
However, the Tartars gathered more and more behind them. There were probably more than 2000 people on the whole staircase slope. It was obvious that the long spearmen on the head of the city began to be tight.
One side, Li Yuanqing behind, Liu Qiao's two small hands tightly tangled together, nervous looking at everything in front.
These days, Li Yuanqing is extremely spoiled to her, and she also feels that her body is much better than before.
For Liu Qiao, her good day has just begun. All her dreams, all her visions, all her things have long been integrated with Li Yuanqing, and they can not be separated.
But at this time, these Tartars, like a devil, may tear up her dream at any time and rob her of everything she has.
In Shenyang City, she has lost her home and parents, but here, she is not willing to lose all of them!
Unfortunately, at this moment, she could do nothing but cry out in her heart, "Buddha! You must protect the general! Bless the children of Changsheng camp
Shu Murong is also very nervous.
She has more military knowledge than Liu Qiao.
At this moment, she clearly understood that the time to decide the victory or defeat of the war was coming.
Although her people are all in front of her, Shu Murong doesn't want her tall man to fail at the moment.
She clenched her lips, hoping that this man, like before, would bring her surprise and hope.
At this time, the battle on the head of the city has entered a white hot.
More and more Tartars rushed into the city and tangled with the spearmen of the Ming army.
Xu sunspot could not help it any longer and said, "general, it's almost there."
Li Yuanqing nodded and suddenly laughed, "almost. There are three thousand! Somebody, give me the order! Bird and spear soldiers, knife shield soldiers cover, long spear soldiers retreat, Huo you
"Yes
The order was quickly passed on.
Soon, the spearmen retreated one after another, the bird and spear soldiers concentrated their firepower support, and the sword and shield soldiers were in front of them.
Not far behind them, there was a big black pot. The hot oil was already the most prosperous. Many soldiers carried the pot and splashed the hot oil onto the slope.
In an instant, the hot oil and the cold ice contact, issued a "zizilala" penetration of the scalp sound.
"Ah! You mean dog
Many Tartars on the slopes could not escape at all. They were poured with fire oil one after another, sending out a cry of killing pigs.
"Continue! Give them all! "Li Yuanqing yelled.
Children do not dare to neglect, have pot after pot of hot oil, continue to pour down the slope.
Soon, the entire huge slope, everywhere is "zizila" sound, people straight goose bumps.
But after all, the scope of human dumping of kerosene is limited. In addition to the Tartars in front of them being affected, the Tartars behind them are far away from each other.
Du Du was in charge of the battle in person.
He had climbed to the middle of the slope and yelled, "come on! Come on! All of them are on top of me! Today, I must drink from Li Yuanqing's heart! "
These days, the Houjin soldiers around him are also suffocating. They shout loudly and rush to the city.
At this time, in the city head, the fire oil has basically been spilled. In the sight of Li Yuanqing, it has reached the middle of the slope, and is puffing with white smoke.
Seeing that it was almost time, Li Yuanqing grinned grimly, "pitchers are ready! Torch
"Yes
Fifty pitchers had been waiting for a long time. They took the sticks which had been burning a big pot and threw them into the city.
