    (Readers, please support the new book "Iron-Blooded War", thank you.) Six hundred cannons were neatly arranged, with their dark muzzles all facing Shenyang City.  This is a miracle in the history of war. No war has ever used so many artillery. But such a deployment has become a habit in the eyes of Lu Xiangsheng and the soldiers of Jiangning Battalion. However, the number of artillery used this time is huge.  , is the largest number in all previous battles. It is believed that Shenyang¡¯s solid city walls will be vulnerable to the fierce bombardment of artillery.  June 25th at Mao hour.  The battle to attack Shenyang began. Six hundred artillery pieces roared at the same time, and the huge sound waves made the air tremble.  Fifty thousand Jiangning battalion soldiers are waiting for the order to charge. It is their lifelong honor to participate in the battle to attack Shenyang. Of course, Shenyang is the capital of the Houjin Tatars. If you want to win this city, you will definitely have to make a heavy effort.  casualties.  Huang Taiji's body collapsed completely. This time it was different from before. In the past, there were many opportunities to inspire Huang Taiji to cheer up. But in the current situation, Huang Taiji saw no hope. He originally thought,  I went to the city gate in person to see how brave the Jiangning camp was preparing to attack, but my body couldn't allow it, and Jierhalang wouldn't agree.  Because Fushun was besieged by the sergeants of Jiangning Camp, Jierhalang gave up the entire perimeter of Shenyang and dispatched 50,000 soldiers to Fushun for reinforcements. The total number of sergeants guarding Shenyang City was only about 100,000. Compared with Jiangning,  Compared with the battalion, there is no advantage in terms of military strength.  The attack on Fushun was a huge blow to Huang Taiji and Jierhalang, according to Jierhalang's arrangement.  Even if Shenyang cannot be defended anymore, the breakout army can go to Fushun and Zhenbeiguan. The worst is to return to the white mountains and black waters where they lived before. But Su Tiancheng's arrangement completely broke their plan. Once Fushun is lost.  Even if Zhenbeiguan is lost, the Manchu Banner and the Han Banner will have nowhere to go. It is even more unrealistic to enter the grassland. The situation in the grassland is worse than that in Liaodong. The Horqin tribe, the largest tribe in the grassland, has been defeated several times. It seems that  I can't support it anymore.  It feels like being defeated like a mountain.  Huang Taiji and Jierhalang both realized it.  The deaths of Daishan and Dorgon made Huang Taiji feel that the situation was not good. The only chance for the Qing Dynasty was Hauge. If Hauge could successfully retreat to Zhenbeiguan, he would bring many  The Manchu nobles could still retain the talents of the Qing Dynasty and have a chance to make a comeback.  When the huge sound of cannons came.  The palace felt trembling.  Huang Taiji looked at Jierharan in front of him with a forlorn expression.  He spoke slowly.  "Prince Zheng, I have made countless conquests in my life. No matter what hardships and hardships I face, I can find ways to resolve them and reverse the unfavorable situation. But I didn't expect that when I was in my dying years, I would actually see this scene. I  The Qing Dynasty that I created with my own hands is about to completely collapse. I am not willing to accept it. " "Your Majesty, I will definitely lead the soldiers to defend the city of Shenyang. Jiangning Camp should not think about taking it. There is enough food and grass in the city. Jiangning Camp insists.  "It won't take that long." "I don't need such comfort anymore. Listen to the sound of artillery. I have never heard such dense artillery fire. The artillery of Jiangning Camp once caused heavy damage to the Qing Dynasty. Now,  I am afraid that these artillery pieces will completely destroy the foundation of our Qing Dynasty. I am not afraid of death. I have worked hard for so many years to create the Qing Dynasty. God will not treat me badly. " Jierharang lowered his head and stopped talking.  Huang Taiji said such words, so he had to try his best to comfort Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji was very clear about the consequences he was about to face.  "I had a dream last night about Hauge. I am very awake. I am afraid that Hauge should not think about being able to retreat to Zhenbeiguan. Even if he retreats to Zhenbeiguan, it will be difficult to support him without many warriors around him.  Su Tiancheng made such a big determination and thought about all the possibilities, how could he let Hauge maintain the lifeline of our Qing Dynasty? " "I still remember talking about Su Tiancheng here many years ago. At that time, Su Tiancheng was still here.  He is unknown, but at that time, I asserted that it was this Su Tiancheng who would put our Qing Dynasty into many dangers in the future. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and everything has come true. I regret it, why did I do it in the first place?  He did not go all out to deal with Su Tiancheng. " Jierhalang never spoke. He had already fully arranged the deployment of guarding Shenyang City. He did not need to go to the front line to command. However, when the attack started, he also wanted to go to the front to see it.  look.  Shenyang City is also divided into an outer city and an inner city. Now it is the outer city that is under attack. Even if the outer city is captured, the elites of the Eight Banners are still waiting in the inner city. Sergeant Jiangningying wants to?To capture the entire city of Shenyang, it will take a certain amount of effort and even huge sacrifices.  Huang Taiji, who expressed many emotions, slowly stood up.  "Prince Zheng, I will go with you to see how brave the soldiers of Jiangning camp are and how they captured the city." "Your Majesty, you must not do it. I will go over and have a look immediately. If there are other situations, I will definitely come and help."  The Emperor reports. " "Prince Zheng, don't you understand my temper? Am I that kind of person? I have been fighting all my life. If it weren't for the rise of Su Tiancheng, I would have been killed by this time.  The city walls of Shenyang's outer city soon began to collapse. No matter how strong the city walls were, they could not withstand the bombardment of six hundred cannons.  An hour later, at Chenshi, the soldiers of Jiangning Battalion began to charge.  Part of the city wall was blown down, the city gate had been blown away long ago, and the moat was flattened.  The charge went smoothly, and soldiers all the way began to enter the city.  There was no smile on Lu Xiangsheng's face. He knew very well that the battle had just begun. Despite the bombardment of 600 cannons, there were not many sergeants placed on the city wall by Houjin Tatar. More sergeants were waiting in the city.  Inside, this means that the battle in the city will be extremely cruel. Shenyang is the capital of Hou Jin Dynasty, which is different from anywhere else. The defense here is particularly tight. After the Jiangning camp soldiers invaded the city, it was difficult to  Getting support from the common people depends almost entirely on one's own efforts.  Lu Xiangsheng once thought about bombing the city of Shenyang, but this suggestion was directly rejected by the emperor. The emperor's reply was very simple. Don't consider the pleasure of the moment, but care about history and respect history. If the entire city of Shenyang is destroyed,  Razed to the ground, how will history be reviewed a hundred years later?  The emperor's words made Lu Xiangsheng completely determined not to use large artillery in Shenyang City, even if he had to pay a heavy sacrifice.  Sure enough, after the Jiangning battalion soldiers rushed into Shenyang City, the speed of the attack began to slow down.  Every time you advance one meter, soldiers will fall. Houjin Tartars used almost all the buildings, and bows and arrows were constantly shooting from all directions. However, in the process of advancing, Houjin Tartars also continued to lose their lives.  The fighting in Shenyang City started at Chenshi, and it was still a long time before dark.  Lu Xiangsheng had less than 70,000 soldiers available for the project, and more than 20,000 soldiers at the same time had to stay outside and monitor the city gates distributed in the southeast and northwest at all times to prevent the Jin Tatars from breaking out.  Brutal fighting began in the city.  No one would have thought that this would become the most sacrificial battle in the history of Jiangning Battalion. The annihilation of the Houjin Tatars was achieved with Jiangning Battalion's heavy casualties.  Su Tiancheng had already set off from Guanning. The day before he attacked Shenyang, he took 10,000 soldiers and set off from Guanning to Shenyang. All kinds of intelligence came from all aspects. The army led by Hong Chengchou captured Haizhou and Liaoyang.  Waiting for a while, they were galloping towards Shenyang. The army led by Sun Chuanting and He Renlong also rushed towards Fushun. Everything went smoothly. As for the specific results, it is not clear yet, but the two troops led by Hauge also rushed towards Fushun.  Wanhou Jin Tazi, facing the 70,000 army led by Sun Chuanting, there is absolutely no possibility of divine calculation, and it will be a matter of time before he is wiped out.  By this time, Su Tiancheng would no longer stay in Guangning and had to go to Shenyang. He believed that by the time he arrived in Shenyang, the battle to attack Shenyang would be almost over.  In the direction of the grassland, reports from Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong have been sent a long time ago. The battle to conquer the grassland is coming to an end. The Horqin tribe is still making the final struggle. The grassland is vast. If it relied on the cavalry to pursue it, it would have been  It was difficult to completely annihilate the Mengba Banner, but artillery played a key role. The soldiers of the Mengba Banner were at a loss when facing the artillery, and even used their bodies to resist the artillery. This was actually a "feat" of their own.  Take destruction.  Therefore, the grassland conquest battle, which was originally very difficult, seemed much easier. Su Tiancheng hardly needed to worry about it. He simply let Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong take charge.  In Su Tiancheng's view, once the Houjin Tatars were annihilated and the grasslands were conquered, there would be no large-scale wars in the Jin Dynasty. The rest would be small-scale battles at most. As for conquering the world, such a goal is impossible.  What has been achieved is also a measure that wastes people and money. Using economic means to control the world is the best way. Next, using culture to influence the world is the right choice. It is the most stupid method to send troops to conscript people at every turn.  Su Tiancheng rushed to Shenyang in a hurry, and he had another wish, which was to meet Huang Taiji.What does the most respected opponent look like? Maybe there is no such opportunity. After all, Huang Taiji is the emperor of Hou Jin. He may not be able to bear the end of Hou Jin being wiped out. It is also possible to choose to commit suicide in the palace.  But somewhere, Su Tiancheng felt that he would definitely be able to see Huang Taiji.  (To be continued)
