    The Gaizhou City in the Ming Dynasty was located closer to the sea than the urban area of ??Gaizhou hundreds of years later, blocking the passage from the north to the south.

    Dorgon led an army of 50,000 in person, and tens of thousands of them were coated with the army. After gathering in Haizhou, he quickly went south.

    Hauge led the 20,000 Eight Banners Army, came from the valley in the northeast, and went straight to the east of Gaizhou along the Daqing River, just wanting to wreak havoc on the countryside and grab wheat.

    Because the entire north bank of the Daqing River, in order to prevent it from being harassed by the Manchus, the vast and fertile land was completely abandoned, and crops can only be seen if you cross the Daqing River.

    Anyway, the population is insufficient, so of course we must choose a safer area for cultivation.

    "My lord, the front door is Newcastle!"

    Hauge galloped out on horseback, bypassed a mountain creek, and personally stepped forward to take out the binoculars to observe.

    There is no castle here, and the construction has been completed in recent months.  Since they didn't know the name, the Manchu spies called it "Xinbao".

    At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in order to guard against the passage here, Tangchi Fort was built in the north, and a large area of ??Lingguan, Shanghata Dun and Shimenguan were built along the river valley in the east.  However, these places are too far away and are easy to be surrounded and defended. The Datong Army shrunk their defenses and built the "Pinglu Fort".

    "What castle is this?"

    Haug put down the binoculars, muttered to himself, then picked it up again to continue observing.

    The walls of the castle here are very low, and you can rush up with a ladder.  Moreover, there is a layer of sloping soil slopes outside the city wall. This kind of soil slope does not even need ladders, and soldiers can climb it by running and charging.

    It's just that the trenches outside the slope are very annoying, and the folks have to fill the trenches first.

    After observing carefully for a while, Hauge was amused, and said to the left and right generals: "If it is under my command, the craftsmen responsible for building this castle should be killed. How can we prevent the army from attacking the city?"

    The original plan was that Dorgon led the main force to besiege Gaizhou City and send aid by the way.  Hauge led a partial division to outflank the flanks, plundered the population while harvesting wheat, and joined forces with Dorgon at critical moments.

    At this moment, Hauge saw the appearance of "Pinglu Fortress", and immediately decided to unplug this stronghold first.

    According to Hauge's estimate, it can be won in a day at most!

    The people who were plundered from North Korea some time ago have now become siege men, and they go to fill the trenches with the soldiers.

    "Bang bang bang!"

    As soon as the peasants approached the trench, they were shot by the firecrackers behind the slope.

    After a gunshot, they all collapsed.

    In desperation, Hauge ordered the car to be moved from the ship to assemble.  Use a car to cover the civilian husband, and fill in the trench first.

    "Boom boom boom!"

    This time it was a cannon fire, and it was extremely accurate, almost four or five shells could destroy a wagon.

    Lu Xiangsheng's cavalry has expanded to 7,000.  The newly added war horses were all captured on the Henan and Shandong battlefields, and some cavalry simply came here with their horses.

    For example, Jiang Yu took four hundred Ding cavalry to join him, and is now dispatched to Liaodong to participate in the battle.

    "Haha, this Laoshizi Bastion is really useful." Lu Xiangsheng stood on the wall to watch the battle.

    The bastion is not known for being strong, and the city walls are also very low.  If you are really rushed to the bottom of the city by the enemy, you can climb up in minutes.

    However, there is no blind spot of firepower, and enemies in any corner will be covered by firepower.

    Including the shooting point of the artillery, they are all measured in advance.  When the enemy arrived in that area, they let the artillery fire, and the hit rate of the shells was very high.

    After several vehicles were scrapped in a row, Hauge couldn't sit still, and ordered the civilian men and servants to fill the trench with soil regardless of casualties.

    After defeating the men who filled the trench more than ten times, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly ordered: "Let them fill it, save some gunpowder and shells, and use it to fight the real Tartars behind."

    The guns stopped immediately, and Hauge was overjoyed: "Those Nanban ammunition is not enough, quickly fill up the trench!"

    The trench is neither wide nor deep.

    After the gun threat was eliminated, the civilian husband quickly filled it up, and Hauge immediately ordered the Eight Banners soldiers to push the car to attack.

    Everything went well until the car approached the slope.

    "Bang bang bang!"

    Firecrackers appeared on the slope again, and the siege weapon of the Manchu and Qing dynasties, the chariot, could not play the slightest defensive role.

    Because the soil slopes are also full of edges and corners, the car can block the bullets on the front, but it cannot block the bullets on both sides.  The paper shell ammunition is loaded, and the paper shell is also inserted with a stab strip, which can prevent the projectile from rolling off when it is shot down.

    The descendants of Nurhachi, the owner of the small flag of Zhenglan Banner, and Boluo, the son of Gushan Bei, are leading the charge at this time.

    Hauge¡¯s confiscated Zhenglan Banner Niulu, although??Mongolia.

    The bastion-like defensive buildings in Liaodong were built by Sun Yuanhua with the support of Sun Chengzong.  Ningyuan, which Zu Dashou guarded for more than ten years, has similar defensive buildings.

    However, that is not a bastion.

    Instead, on the basis of the Chinese-style city wall, a prismatic enemy platform was built so that artillery and firecrackers could bypass the chariot and hit the enemy.

    There is no difference between who is good and who is bad. Even the Eight Banners soldiers can't break through. In the end, Ningyuan City was besieged alive.

    The bastion here is too short. Hauge and other Manchu nobles couldn't think of Ningyuan City for a while, and they didn't think of the sharp-angled enemy tower in Ningyuan City until they were hurt.

    "Rush to die?" Duny sneered.

    "What should we do if we don't rush?" Obai said, "The castle is built in a critical place, so we can bypass it when we come here. How can we bypass the food, people and livestock when we have a lot of luggage? At that time, we have to cross the river,  Either walk outside the castle, no matter which one is easy to be raided."

    Duny said: "Just lead the enemy out of the castle and destroy them!"

    Aobai confronted each other: "Those southern barbarians know how to fight, so we must let us rob them. The more things we rob, the harder it will be to march. At that time, we will be the prey, and the enemy will be the hunters. They rely on the castle, and they can come and go quickly."  Hurry up, go fast, gain the upper hand everywhere, we are very passive everywhere."

    Doni said: "No matter how difficult the field battle is, it's better than besieging the city and dying. This weird castle, you go first if you want to die!"

    "Let's go!" Aobai said angrily.

    This seems to be discussing military affairs, but it is actually a continuation of the conflict between Hauge and Dorgon.

    Doni is the second son of Dodo!

    Shang Kexi huddled beside him. He didn't speak at first, but he didn't want to storm the castle, so he had to say: "This kind of castle with a sharp angle, I've heard it mentioned by the red-haired artilleryman before, and Mr. Sun has also mentioned it many times. Don't look at it  Short, in fact, it is not easy to conquer"

    "Why didn't you say it earlier? I killed thousands of warriors!" Hauge was furious.

    Shang Kexi explained: "The last general has only heard about it, and has never seen the real thing. And in the past many years, I really didn't think of it for a while, and I didn't think of it until the prince withdrew his troops just now."

    Aobai said: "First use the artillery to bombard, wait until the Eight Banners warriors charge close, and then stop and don't fire the artillery. The slope is not steep, and only wears a layer of armor, so it must be very fast. After occupying the slope  , and then take a ladder to attack the city. Those walls are not high, so we can definitely attack them!"

    Haoge didn't want to be laughed at by Dorgon, so he said immediately: "Then try this way!"

    Doni and the others just sneered, they wouldn't attack anyway.  If Hauge wanted to force it, he had to let his Niu Lu go to attack the city, and they wouldn't feel distressed no matter how many deaths there were.

    Manqing is the head office, and the Eight Banners are branch companies. There are also branch companies under each banner, and each branch company is responsible for its own profits and losses.

    As the small boss of the branch, Doni only needs to keep himself from losing money.
