Chapter 477 Siege

On August 18, the 7th year of Chongzhen, just when the situation in Shu was changing and blood was flowing everywhere, the Pei family's army, which had been surrounding Jianzhou for more than two months, no longer had the patience to wait any longer.

On August 18th, Pei Xiaoer sent someone to send an ultimatum to Jianzhou City, ordering the uncles and nephews of the Qin family in Jianzhou City to hand over his father Pei and surrender unconditionally within 3 days, otherwise after the army entered the city, the white-armed soldiers would be killed.

No chickens or dogs left.

After Qin Minping got the news, he took the initiative to send people out of Jianzhou for the first time to ask for Pei Xiaoer, and begged Pei Xiaoer to give him a grace period of ten days. After he cleared the dissatisfied white-pole soldiers in the city, the city would surely surrender.

Pei Xiaoer refused to see him and ordered someone to exchange the news. Three days was the deadline. If he still didn't surrender after three days, don't blame the Pei family army for attacking the city regardless of God's goodness. The envoy waited for a long time and was still not allowed to enter.

, left in frustration.

In Jianzhou City, Qin Minping seemed to have known the consequences for a long time and was not discouraged. He sent an envoy out of the city again overnight, this time reducing the grace period for requesting to ten days. This time, the envoy did not even enter the Pei family army camp.

Was blasted out.

After settling the envoys, Qin Minping replaced the envoys again. At the same time, he prepared the equipment to defend the city. He even moved the ten catapults improvised during this period to the top of the city to defend the city.

Not only that, Qin Minping also ransacked the entire city and brought all the grain, kerosene, firewood, etc. stored in the people's homes in the city back to the military camp for unified management. The tens of thousands of men and women in the city were not spared, and they were all brought to the military camp.

.The old people served as cooks, and the strong men directly served as recruits and auxiliary soldiers. Even the women in the city were gathered to wash clothes and sew armor for the army.

Qin Minping's cruel methods caused resentment among the people in the city. For the first time, the poor people and wealthy families put aside their prejudices and gathered together to resist Qin Minping's brutal rule. Resistances, assassinations, and escapes occurred in endlessly. However, after all, these people are just ordinary people. With the help of 1

Shenxueyong was no match for Qin Minping, and gradually calmed down under Qin Minping's bloody suppression.

Three days passed by in a flash, and the commotion in the city gradually calmed down. All those who dared to resist Qin Minping were sent to see the Lord of Hell by Qin Minping. On the top of Jianzhou City, whether they were voluntary or were broken

, soldiers who were either well-equipped or poorly dressed crowded the gates of Jianzhou City.

Pei Xiaoer personally led the Pei family's army out of the camp and lined up outside Jianzhou City to prepare for battle. Looking at the white flags on top of the city and everyone wearing mourning, Pei Xiaoer said in a deep voice: "Send someone to give Qin Minping the last word, as long as he

If I can ensure that my father is safe and sound, I will allow him to take his white-poled soldiers back to Shizhu safely."

When things came to a close, Pei Xiaoer decided to compromise. This was not because he was afraid of Qin Minping, nor was he determined to recruit these white soldiers. In fact, now, Pei Xiaoer also knew about these white soldiers.

It is no longer possible to surrender to him. What he really cares about is his father Pei.

Although Liu Bang originally said to Xiang Yu who wanted to push his father into the cauldron for the sake of the world, please share a piece of the pie with me. But this reputation of abandoning his father and abandoning his son can no longer escape. Pei Xiaoer boasts that he has no

Liu Bang was so big-hearted that he didn't want this infamy to follow him.

Upon hearing Pei Xiaoer's order, the primary school officer quickly ran towards the city. After a while, a high-pitched voice came from the top of Jianzhou City, "If you want to fight, then fight, no need to say more."

Everything that can be done has been done, everything that can be said has been said. Pei Xiaoer has done his best to be kind and righteous. If Father Pei is really in trouble, he will be able to save everyone in this world.

"attack!"

Following Pei Xiao's 21st order, the first to start the attack was Pei's army's artilleryman Ren Mingdao. Compared with just entering Sichuan, occupying Sichuan, especially the artillery that was supplemented by a large amount of supplies from Chengdu City, was like eating the whole thing. Not only are the red cannons greatly replenished with pills, but also cannonballs, gunpowder, etc. are all available.

Various cannonballs of different sizes and materials, accompanied by tongues of flame, flew out of the muzzle and hit the unwilling city wall hard. Under such a fierce attack, the blue wall bricks flew everywhere, and the sand was thrown away. Stone splash.

On the top of the city, Qin Minping's temporarily recruited recruits had never seen such a scene before. Each one of them turned pale with fright, and their legs were like chaff. What's more, they were scratched by the splashed masonry fragments, and the space between their legs suddenly 1. It was so hot that I lay down softly.

When Qin Minping saw this situation, he suddenly felt that something was not good. After all, these civilians had no training. If they continued to fight like this, they might be defeated before the rebels could attack.

After thinking about it, Qin Minping immediately pulled a general beside him and whispered a few words in his ear. Then the general nodded and left. Not long after, the general led a team of elite soldiers to patrol behind the civilian husband, and said loudly: "General With the order, anyone who dares to escape from the battle will be killed without mercy."

With the war team watching behind them, although the civilians were scared to death, they did not dare to flee for their lives. They could only stand on the top of the city and accept the baptism of Pei's army's artillery shells.

The cannon continued intermittently for half an hour. Numerous gaps were made in the city wall, large and small, in the female wall. The big ones could accommodate one person, and the small ones were as big as the mouth of a bowl. The horse-facing wall in front of the city wall was even more pitted. , the wall bricks have been knocked off in some places, exposing the rammed earth layer inside. There are several large cracks in the entire city wall.

"General, the cannon is too hot. If we keep firing, the cannon will be disabled." Ren Mingdao sent someone to report on the current situation of the artillery.

"Then let the cannon stop and repair it." Pei Xiaoer saw that on the artillery position, many people wrapped soaked rags around the cannon body to cool down the cannon, and the steaming water vapor enveloped the cannon position. Pei Xiaoer 2 I know that the artillery can't fire for the time being, but it doesn't matter. Although the artillery is powerful, if you want to completely defeat the enemy, you have to dispatch a large number of infantry.

"Hu Zhonglong, lead your headquarters to attack!"

Hu Zhonglong is Pei Zhuer's general and can be regarded as a strong general in the army. After hearing Pei Xiaoer's order, he immediately jumped out and ran towards Jianzhou. 3,000 elite soldiers followed closely behind him, pushing the nest cart. , wooden curtains, churro chariots, crash chariots, Linchong and other siege equipment, rushed towards Jianzhou.

After a two-month siege, the Pei family's army would naturally not do nothing. So many siege equipment are naturally the masterpieces of the Pei family's army that stayed outside Jianzhou City for more than two months. It is precisely because of these two months of hard work that This was the first time that Pei's army was fully prepared to attack a city.

Sure enough, with the blessing of so many siege equipment, in less than half an hour, the Pei family army had already attacked the city, opened up 34 strongholds on the city wall mountain, and established a firm foothold. Qin Minping's face was as black as iron. , never expected that the defense he had worked so hard for so long would collapse in just half an hour.

The unwilling Qin Minping roared angrily, then rushed forward and led the white-pole soldiers in an attempt to drive the Pei family's army down the city who had just climbed the city wall.

While the Pei family army was fighting with the white pole soldiers, a group of people quietly came under the city wall. These people did not attack the city. Instead, they shouted to the city. Their target was Jianzhou, who was being held hostage by Qin Minping. common people.

"People of Jianzhou, the general knows that you have been defeated. The general is willing to give you a way out. As long as you turn against the enemy and attack the thieves around you, the general will not hesitate to reward you generously. Even if you dare not resist the thieves, As long as you lay down your weapons, kneel down and surrender, the general is still willing to let you go home and live an ordinary life."

"People of Jianzhou"

The repeated psychological battles made Minzhuang, who was temporarily recruited by Qin Minping on the top of the city, feel dazed and hesitant. What's more, the eyes he looked at the white soldiers on the side became a little different.

The white-pole soldiers who were supervising the minzhuang instinctively felt the threat, and they became more vigilant when looking at these minzhuangs. Suddenly, several people put down their weapons, and the slightest movement instantly caused a strong reaction from the supervising team, and many people suddenly launched attacks on the civilians.

The civilians were caught off guard and many were killed on the spot. However, they quickly realized what was happening and began to fight with the supervising team. Originally, the Pei family's army only broke through 34 gaps and gained a firm foothold. In this way, the remaining soldiers were killed. The Pei Jiajun officers and soldiers provided an opportunity.
