On the Nanguan wall, Xie Qian looked to the north with a serious expression. In just a short while, more and more Qing troops gathered in front of the wall.

Within the range of people's sight, there were all the figures of Qing soldiers, and there was no description of the crowds of people and the mountains and fields. The Qing army's troops were numerous.

Xie Qian looked down from the wall and looked around. He saw that there were a lot of people and horses, as well as various equipment standing among the crowd.

Dai Zhijun looked at it roughly. In addition to a large number of cavalry, there were all large equipment such as cannons, ladders, cave houses, shield cars, stone throwers, etc., and hundreds of them would pose a huge threat to Lushun's defense.

For a moment, noisy sounds came from outside the wall, and the soldiers on the city wall looked at the assembly of the Qing army with solemn expressions.

"The Qing army has started to set up artillery!" Dai Zhijun looked solemn.

Xie Qian held the hilt tightly in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Sir, don't worry. Although the Qing army has many soldiers, Nanguan City has complete defenses and warships on both sides. The area where the Qing army can attack is very narrow, only a few miles on the front. We can concentrate our troops to defend, and Yue Le's troops cannot be used at all."

The Qing army had attacked Lushun once earlier. At that time, tens of thousands of people were blocked north of the Nanguan Wall. Not only did they not break through the Guan Wall, but they were also bombarded by Ming warships on the sea on both sides of the Guan Wall. They were harassed by the Ming army landing from the rear. They were miserable. In the end, the Qing navy attacked from the sea, captured Lushun from behind, and killed tens of thousands of troops in Donghai Town.

This attack was annihilated by Zhao Ming more than two years ago and has not recovered its vitality so far. It can only hide in Weihai, Shandong and lick its wounds. Therefore, only the troops brought by Yue Le were attacking Lushun.

However, Yue Le was not worried about this, because he had already found out that the Dongfan soldiers in Lushun were less than 10,000, only a few thousand, while he brought an army of 80,000.

With such strong military strength, Lushun is a wall of iron, and Yue Le has the confidence to defeat Lushun.

At this time, while the Qing army artillery team arranged artillery, Yue Le led dozens of cavalry forward and peered at the defense of the Nanguan Wall.

Donghai Town laid a large number of obstacles such as horse-repelling piles and deer antlers in front of the wall to prevent the Qing army from approaching the wall. In order to prevent artillery, Donghai Town built two parallel walls, one with a shorter front, only two feet, and the other behind is close to three feet.

Yue Le immediately frowned and exhaled a breath of turbid air. Donghai Town arranged this way, even if a wall in front was smashed into pieces, there was another one behind, which was not easy to be hit by artillery.

In fact, in addition to what Yue Le saw, there was a three-meter-wide moat before each wall, which was filled with spikes and wooden stakes, because under the ground level, these Yue Le could not observe them.

Yue Le hurriedly checked one side and found that the defense of the Nanguan Wall was very perfect and there were covers of warships on both sides. He could only attack the middle part, which was very difficult, but he looked back at the Qing army everywhere behind him, and was full of confidence.

At this time, Yue Le pulled out his horse and returned to Dao's banner. The Qing army artillery placed in front was already in full swing.

"Prince, the artillery team is ready!" Han army flag artillery team Jialazhangjing Hu Maozhen stepped forward and clasped his fists.

Yue Le waved his hand coldly, "Bombardment!"

The Qing army's central army made a golden sound, and the cavalry under the city retreated one after another. Then a sudden loud noise from the cannon formation in front of them. A red cannon suddenly retreated back. A black iron bullet slashed through the sky and smashed into the horse-rejecting pile in front of the city wall. Broken wood splashed, stirring up a cloud of smoke and dust.

Seeing that the Qing army's artillery team failed to hit, they immediately adjusted the artillery position and raised the muzzle slightly.

The Qing army received help from the Dutch. During the Battle of Jiangbei, Huang Ting and other generals from Donghai Town surrendered to the Qing army. With the help of these people, the Qing army immediately improved its use of firearms.

It can be said that when the three-shun kings surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty lost its advantage in firearms. The help of the Dutch and the surrender of thousands of elite soldiers in Donghai Town, not to mention that the Qing munitions surpassed that of Donghai Town, but at least it improved the level of artillery control in the Qing army.

At this time, after the Qing army artillery team was adjusted, the artillery officers roared loudly and waved the triangle flag. The gunners raised the ignition sticks in their hands and ignited the leads. The artillery positions instantly burst into deafening sounds of cannons.

Amid the thunder, thick white smoke covered the long front. As the Qing army's artillery mounts retreated, dozens of iron bullets of more than ten kilograms rushed out of the muzzle and smashed towards the Nanguan wall. Countless broken ice exploded on the long wall immediately, and white lotus bloomed.

For a moment, the city wall was shaking, and the sound of ice and soil collapsed constantly came, mixed with many screams and panic calls.

In front of the Red Armor, there was no big difference between the reactions of Donghai Town, which had strong combat power and the Qing army.

The Qing army concentrated on bombarding a section of the city wall. After three rounds of artillery attacks, the long wall was smashed to pieces.

At this time, Yue Le, who looked cold, waved his hand immediately, "Infantry attack!"

The new army of the five thousand Han army was in the red flag immediately had a shield chariot in front, and the musketeers were holding guns behind, stepping on neat steps, pressing towards the city wall, and launching a tentative attack.

~~~~~~~

There are only 2,500 Dutch people on Taiwan Island.

Donghai Town captured nearly a thousand people in the naval battle, defeating Roskarn more than 600 people, and more than 300 people surrendered to Chikanburg, and less than 700 Dutch were left in Rezhelanburg.

But these more than 700 Dutch people stumped more than 10,000 soldiers in Donghai Town.

After Chikan Fort surrendered, Zhao Ming began to try to attack Rezalan Fort, but the flowering bullets with huge lethality against the warships lost their effect on the stone fort. When soldiers were sent to land and attack, the narrow sandbank could only allow more than a thousand soldiers to be deployed at a time, limiting the investment of troops and unable to exert their strength advantages.

After several attempts, the soldiers of Donghai Town lost more than 600 people, which is equivalent to the losses of the entire battle before.

During the process of shooting against Hotzalamburg, the wooden sailing warship fired against the stone fort, and was not afraid of the advantage. A gunboat ship was smashed by heavy cannons on the fortress, so Zhao Ming could only temporarily stop the attack.

The siege is known to have been "unable to be conquered" before the long-range siege heavy artillery appeared. However, there is no way to deal with the siege. One of them is to dig a "Z" trench and advance under the city wall to avoid premature exposure to the siege artillery of the siege to reduce casualties, or set up a mortar to shoot and then fill it with human lives. However, the siegelandsburg is surrounded by the sea on all sides, and these methods are not used.

For a time, Donghai Town fought around Rezhalanburg for more than a month, but there was no progress.

This made Zhao Ming at a loss. He understood why Zheng Chenggong had tens of thousands of people, but it took eight or nine months to force the Dutch in Rezhelan.

In Chikan Fort, Zhao Ming said angrily: "It is not unreasonable that Western barbarians build a stronghold and control large areas of colonies. We still have cannons. Those who hold bows, arrows, spears, are difficult to conquer such fortresses even if there are tens of thousands of people!"

It is indeed some of the ability of the Westerners to colonize successfully, which makes Zhao Ming admire him.

Xu Fuyuan said: "If we are not in a hurry to end the war, we can surround the Red-Fao Yi in the city. When their food and water sources are exhausted, they will naturally surrender. But now, General Xie is under great pressure in Liaodong, and due to the war, Jiangdong's merchant ships can only travel to Japan and North Korea, and to the south, they can only go to Taiwan. The cotton and silk produced by workshops and merchants have already been backlogged."

Zhao Ming's face became heavy, and at this moment, Guo Zhong suddenly walked in and whispered to Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming's face became even more gloomy, and he punched the edge of the sand table, "Manqing really took action!"
