    Sony finally met the generals of the Tiger Guard.

    He was a minister of the Qing Dynasty, but now he must lower his head to meet the generals of the Ming Dynasty.  But he must endure it. For the fate of the Qing Dynasty, he must endure it no matter how difficult it is!

    But when he told the purpose of his coming, the generals of the Tiger Guard burst into laughter. Cai Jiuzhou pointed his fingers and said with a smile: "The inner city is about to be destroyed. Do you still want to fantasize about buying time and waiting for more?"  Will Ergon return the favor?"

    "One sentence revealed Manchu's thoughts.

    Sony forced a smile, and Ye Dahai already laughed and said: "Go tell your little emperor that even Dorgon can't protect himself now. We have sent troops to rescue quickly, and I expect Beijing will also take action now. If you want to delay, then  How long can it be delayed?¡±

    "Go, go back and tell your little emperor that surrender is the only top priority now." Zhang Xianxuan sneered: "I'll give you one hour to open the city and surrender. If you don't surrender, once the city is broken, no chickens or dogs will be left behind!"

    Once the city is broken, no chickens or dogs will be left behind!

    These eight words hit Sony's heart like a heavy hammer.  .  .  .  .  .

    He was driven back before he even had time to say anything else.  .  .  .  .  .  And when he conveyed these words of Huben Wei to the ears of the Manchu, everyone fell silent.  .  .  .  .  .

    The Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty!  Could it be that the Great Qing Dynasty really died like this?  For an hour, those Han people actually only gave them an hour!

    In fact, they didn¡¯t know it, if it weren¡¯t for the arrival of all the siege weapons.  The generals of the Huben Guards might not even give them this hour.

    But how should these Manchus choose now?

    None of the ministers spoke.

    "I don't have to argue with those Han dogs!" Turge's face flushed red: "I'll fight them anyway. Can our warriors of the Qing Dynasty really be afraid of them?"

    "I would rather die to protect the emperor!" When he heard Turge say the word "Han dog", Ning Wan's expression changed drastically, but he still suppressed his anger and said.

    Turge curled his lips in disdain. He didn¡¯t believe these Han people from the bottom of his heart.  .  .  .  .  .

    "Fight!" At this time, Bumbutai also knew that any fantasy was unrealistic. No matter how difficult and painful she was, she had to persevere. This was for the Qing Dynasty!

    The Queen Mother has made this decision, so everything is irreversible.  .  .  .  .  .

    The Manchus have made their own decision: fight!

    An hour passed in a blink of an eye, and the most terrifying moment finally arrived:

    On April 15th, the battle for the inner city of Shengjing officially broke out!

    This battle.  A name in history!  This battle will be remembered forever!  In this battle, the world turns upside down!

    The Huben Guards concentrated all the artillery fire they could and frantically bombarded the inner city.  The pirates quickly launched a large-scale clearing of the occupied outer city.

    The Tiger Guards must not be distracted at the critical moment of attacking the inner city. This is the only mission of those pirates.

    In fact, they have done the same thing in Manila, Luzon Island, and now it is just repeated.

    In fact, not everyone's determination to resist was so strong. Some of them were also timid and scared, even those who had not had time to run into the inner city.

    For example, this is the case with Ilegen from the Ministry of Finance.

    He originally wanted to run into the inner city to escape.  But the moment he entered the inner city, he made a decision: since the Ming army could break the outer city.  Then it is not difficult to break through the inner city.

    Since we are going to die together with Sheng Jing, why not find a better way to protect ourselves?

    So when the pirates kicked his house open, they were surprised to find a room full of people sitting there neatly dressed.

    "I am Ilegen, the left minister of the household department."

    Ilegen said very frankly: "I want to see your general. I have something very important to tell him!"

    The pirates looked at each other in shock. Although they thought this was a bit incredible, they still agreed to the Manchu request.  And when Ilegen was brought to Cai Jiuzhou, the first thing he said was: "I know everything about the inner city and the layout of the palace. If you can use me, I can save you a lot of energy."

    Cai Jiuzhou smiled slightly: "What kind of reward do you want?"

    He knows these people very well.  All their efforts are not free, and they must receive some satisfactory reward.

      "Please don't hurt my family." Ilegen opened his mouth to express his request.

    Cai Jiuzhou nodded: "If we can rush into the palace with your help and capture your emperor, empress dowager and important ministers alive, then not only will your family not be harmed, but you will also be rewarded by us!"

    Cai Jiuzhou understands the usefulness of these people, whether in Japan or Luzon, these traitors who betray their own country.  It often has unexpected effects!

    Ilegen let out a long breath, and then pointed in the direction of the inner city: "Sir, have you seen the southwest direction? That section of the city wall collapsed in the earthquake in Shengjing last year, but the emperor at that time  . . . Huang Taiji said there was no need to renovate it.

    The eyes of all the Tiger Guard generals lit up.  .  .  .  .  .

    This is a piece of information that could not be more important!

    The muzzle of the gun immediately turned to the southwest, and all the artillery fire roared together!

    ¡°What a country fears most is the emergence of people like Ilegen. This is simply the most serious disaster for this country.

    From the outside, the southwest wall is no different from any other section. Only those inside know that it is actually vulnerable.

    After more than a dozen shells were fired, a large crack appeared in the southwestern city wall. This made all the Tiger Guard generals excited. They mobilized almost all the artillery fire they could muster to bombard the city fiercely and continuously.

    Finally, there was a loud "boom" sound, and the city wall collapsed!

    Cai Jiuzhou glanced at Ilegen approvingly.  Ilegen immediately puffed up his chest with pride.

    "Continue the bombardment and increase the gap!"

    Amidst these orders, the artillery fire became more and more cheerful.

    The shells were falling almost crazily.

    The huge gap in the southwest city wall continues to be torn apart.  .  .  .  .  .  The Manchus tried their best to make up for this gap, but under the bombardment of the Ming army, all they paid was an increasing number of corpses.  .  .  .  .  .

    Azig stared at all this blankly. He had no idea how the Ming army knew about this huge hidden danger in the inner city wall.  But there was nothing he could do now.

    A large number of Qing soldiers were concentrated in this section, and he knew that a crazy attack would begin soon.  .  .  .  .  .  At this time, the Huben Guard generals quickly discovered the Qing army's intentions.  .  .  .  .  .

    The artillery began to move forward, and explosive shells were loaded into the muzzle. Then the whistling shells fell densely towards the Qing army that was gathering.

    The casualties were horrific.

    Such a dense formation soon became a target for the Tiger Guards' artillery, which could kill a whole group of people with one shell without having to take aim.

    Groups of Qing troops fell into a pool of blood under the attack of artillery fire, while the rest were desperately trying to carry out new gatherings in accordance with previous orders.

    And this also made the sound of the Tiger Guards' cannons become more cheerful.  .  .  .  .  .

    Tremble.  Shengjing!  Burn it, Shengjing!

    When the end of a city comes, no one can stop it.  It's just that this day came too quickly for Shengjing!

    Finally, those Qing troops discovered something was wrong, and they would only become a target for the enemy.  But what they discovered seemed to be a little late. Under the intensive artillery bombardment of the Tiger Guards, nearly a thousand people had already fallen into a pool of blood.

    Azig seemed indifferent, but he sighed deeply in his heart.

    Since the Huben Guards began to attack Shengjing, he has seen the power of the Huben Guards' artillery again and again.  That was really an inescapable nightmare for the Qing army.

    What he knew even more clearly was that under the attack of such powerful artillery.  The inner city cannot be defended, the palace cannot be defended, and everything will be destroyed by such terrible artillery fire.

    But he must persist, because he is the Prince of England in the Qing Dynasty, and everyone's hopes are placed on him.  .  .  .  .  .

    Turge, Xihan, Tan Tai and other important officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty came here with their servants and Baoyi, and they decided to make one last fight for Shengjing.

    We can¡¯t fail, we can¡¯t fail this time no matter what.  .  .  .  .  .

    Azig pointed toward the Huben Guards position outside the inner city: "Did you see it? That's the artillery of the Ming Dynasty. Under such an attack, any obstacle will be turned into powder."

    Turg¡¯s expression was uncertain. Although he had heard about the horror of the Ming army¡¯s artillery fire, he had never thought that it would be dangerous.Afraid of being like this.

    What kind of scene is this!

    Smoke of gunpowder filled the air, the sound of cannons shook the sky, and everything was trembling and destroyed under the bombardment of artillery fire.  When a cannonball falls, you will feel the earth shaking; when a cannonball falls, you will feel like the end is coming.

    There is nothing more thrilling than this.

    "Charge up. Charge up!" Tan Tai roared: "Charge up and kill them all!"

    "We have tried it a long time ago." Azig smiled bitterly: "That's what Prince Su tried. Eight thousand elite soldiers, a total of eight thousand elite soldiers, nothing is left. Nothing is left  "

    Tan Tai and his companions trembled involuntarily.  From the words of the British Prince, they knew what the truly most terrible war was.

    An artillery shell roared over and landed in the middle of a group of Qing soldiers. In an instant, screams of misery rang out, and a broken leg landed impartially next to Turg.

    Turg almost vomited.

    He has also seen war, and he has personally participated in war, but in his memory, war should never be like this. This is not a war, this is simply the bloodiest killing!

    There are explosions and burning everywhere, and the inner city has been completely immersed in the baptism of fire.  .  .  .  .  .

    The expressions on all Manchurian faces are different.  Some were desperate, some were numb, and some had fear written all over their faces.  .  .  .  .  .  They really hope that God can come and stop this from happening.  But where is their god?

    The sound of cannons suddenly stopped.  .  .  .  .  .

    The Manchus looked at each other in shock, wondering what was going on, but Azig let out a long sigh. This was not the first time he had fought against the Tiger Guards. He knew that once the sound of cannons stopped, a large-scale attack would soon begin!

    Zhen Tan Tai, who stood on the forehead of Zhenghuang Banner Gushan, pulled out his sword with a bang: "The Ming army relies on nothing but artillery. If we want to seize the inner city today, we must rely on bloody battles to succeed. How can I, a man of the Qing Dynasty,  Not as good as them?"

    Azig shook his head.  Gushan Ezhen didn't know that the horror of the Tiger Guards was not just as simple as artillery.  .  .  .  .  .

    Azig didn¡¯t want to explain anything to him. Soon, he would discover what was another kind of horror.  .  .  .  .  .

    Large groups of Tiger Guards began to gather, and the musketeers stood at the forefront; large groups of Qing troops began to gather, and armed with swords and guns, they were about to face the Tiger Guards who used muskets again.  .  .  .  .  .

    "Attack!"

    When this order was issued, countless battle flags of the Tiger Guards fluttered in the wind!  The final blow against Shengjing officially begins from this moment!

    This is a day that all Manchus will never forget. This is a day that makes all Manchus bleed in their hearts.  .  .  .  .  .

    Tan Tai and Xihan were the first to rush forward with their domestic slaves, but they soon realized that what they did was really wrong.

    The muskets roared continuously.  Those who rush forward, without exception, have only one choice: death.

    They have never experienced such a battle, and they have never faced such a terrifying scene.

    A phalanx of muskets on the opposite side.  It's like an iron wall that can never be broken down.  No matter how many times you charge, the end result is the same.

    In a war like this, victory and bravery have nothing to do with each other.  The difference in weapons is really too big.  .  .  .  .  .

    Tan Tai and Xihan's courage became shaken as the casualties continued to increase.  It soon became clear to them that relying on such a charge alone would not help the victory except for the dead.

    But they had no choice. From the first moment they decided to charge, they had no choice.  .  .  .  .  .

    They can only face the arrival of death passively.  .  .  .  .  .

    The musketeers of the Huben Guards kept raising their guns and shooting one after another. The terrible muskets told all the Manchus: The era of hot weapons has arrived.

    The Manchu cavalry could no longer continue to roam the battlefield.  .  .  .  .  .

    "Every enemy will die here" When recalling this past event a few years later, Cai Jiuzhou said this:

    "Actually, our soldiers have long been numb to death. They don't care at all how many people died under their own guns. All they want is constant victory I remember King Wulie many years ago.  We were told about the horrors of the era of hot weapons, but to be honest, we didn¡¯t fully understand it at that time.??Thoroughly, but as one war after another happened, we fully understood what King Wulie said.  .  .  .  .  .  "

    The soldiers of Huben Guard have completely understood!  This is an era of hot weapons, this is a brand new era!

    When the Huben Guards entered the era of hot weapons ahead of schedule, no force in the world could stop their progress. In such a big era, they had firmly grasped the initiative in their own hands!

    Long live the Tiger Guards!

    Xihan fell into a pool of blood.  Tan Tai rushed forward and hugged Xihan. He saw that Xihan's body was bleeding and his eyes were blurred.  Then he heard Xihan ask:

    "The Qing Dynasty can't be saved Your Majesty, we really can't save you"

    He said such a truth before he died. In fact, it didn¡¯t need Xihan to say it. Tan Tai, who was once confident, also knew that everything was over.

    Now he has fully understood the elite of the Tiger Guards and the terror of the Tiger Guards.  .  .  .  .  .

    He slowly put down Xihan¡¯s body, picked up the knife in his hand, and yelled at the top of his lungs: ¡°Warriors of the Qing Dynasty, charge!¡±

    A burst of gunfire came, and Tan Tai, who had just shouted such a slogan, shook his body, then looked down, and he found that blood was pouring out from countless blood holes in his body.  .  .  .  .  .

    He tried hard to take a step forward, but then fell to the ground with a "bang".  .  .  .  .  .

    Xihan and Tan Tai died one after another, defenseless and died under the gunfire of the Tiger Guards, and more and more people would die like him around them.  .  .  .  .  .

    Turge saw it, he clearly saw so many people die, he clearly saw his former colleagues like Tan Tai and Xihan die.

    His heart at this moment was completely desperate.

    This is an unwinnable war, a war with no hope.  All their efforts now were in vain.

    No one can stop them, no one can stop the Tiger Guards from achieving their final victory!

    When confidence is completely lost, the courage you had before will be gone.  The timid mood soon emerged unstoppably.

    Turge quietly stepped back, and at this moment a sarcastic voice sounded: "Gushan Ezhen, are you scared too?"

    He turned his head and looked there, and saw Azig staring at him.

    Turg didn¡¯t know how to answer, but his heart told him that yes, he was really scared, and he really didn¡¯t know how to face all this.

    "Gushan Ezhen, running away is also death, not to mention where can you escape now?" Azige sighed softly: "Follow me and rush, even if you die, you will die like a Qing Dynasty.  's man!¡±

    Then, Azig ignored Turg and rushed forward with a roar!
