"Take me back, I will never let anything happen to Tongjin Gate." Shang Kexi saw that he had been taken down from the city wall, so he asked his soldiers to take him back.
By guarding Tongjin Gate, he would naturally have a chance to be promoted, but if he could not hold it, he knew that he would be sent to the court by Dongjiang Town for punishment as soon as possible, unless he died on the city walls.
He also wanted to go back for the sake of the Shang clan people living in Lushun North City.
Hearing this, the soldiers on the side hurriedly said: "General, we can't go back. Tongjin Gate has been lost, and the tiger thieves are entering the city from Tongjin Gate."
"The tiger thieves have already entered the city?" Shang Kexi was surprised by the words of his own soldiers.
The soldier next to him said: "General, Nancheng cannot be defended anymore. The tiger bandits' troops will be caught up soon. It's better to let your subordinates escort you back to Beicheng!"
The Shang clan members are all in Beicheng, Lushun. Going back to Beicheng is like going home.
"No, we can't go back." Shang Kexi rejected the proposal of the personal soldiers and immediately said, "If I go back to Beicheng, I will really harm my Shang family. Come back with me and drive the tiger thieves' soldiers out of the city. .”
He took back his knife and staggered towards Tongjin Gate.
The soldiers under his command followed him back helplessly.
On the way back to Tongjin Gate, they stopped those officers and soldiers who fled from the direction of Tongjin Gate along the road, and forcibly took the officers and soldiers who wanted to escape and rushed to Tongjin Gate again.
While rushing back, they collected the remnants of the army. Before they reached Tongjin Gate, more than a hundred remnants of the army had been gathered.
boom! boom!
Sporadic gunshots came from the front.
Shang Kexi glanced at the wound on his left arm where he was hit by the musket. The blood had stopped flowing out, and he didn't even feel much pain. He almost couldn't feel any sensation in his left arm.
He looked up and saw several people stumbling towards him on the road ahead, and behind these few officers and soldiers there were soldiers and horses of tiger thieves chasing them.
"Follow me and kill the thief!" Shang Kexi raised the knife with his right hand, raised his leg and rushed out.
Several soldiers followed him closely.
As for the more than 100 officers and soldiers, except for dozens of people who followed behind, the rest actually fled in a hurry.
The situation behind him is quite gratifying. If there are no eyes on the back of his head, he cannot see it.
What's more, even if he saw it, he couldn't care anymore.
At this time, he only had one thought in his mind, which was to fight back, drive the tiger bandit's troops out of the city, and retake Tongjin Gate.
The few officers and soldiers who were fleeing for their lives breathed a sigh of relief when they saw so many officers and soldiers in front of them. At the same time, they stepped a little faster, hoping to join the other officers and soldiers.
Shang Kexi, who was rushing at the front, encountered several officers and soldiers who were being chased by soldiers of the Tiger Flag. He raised his hand and slashed at one of the officers and soldiers with a knife.
One of the officers and soldiers was killed with a knife.
When the officer and soldier were dying, they didn't understand why the other party wanted to kill him.
Several companions who escaped with this officer and soldier were killed by several soldiers around Shang Kexi before they could react.
Shang Ke couldn't bear to explain to others that this was the fate of deserters, because not far behind these officers and soldiers who were hacked to death were the Tiger Flag soldiers who were chasing them.
"kill!"
After shouting again, Shang Kexi strode forward.
More than a dozen Tiger Flag fire gunners were delighted to see Shang Ke. They immediately recognized him as a high-ranking official from the armor and stomach on his body, and immediately picked up the fire gun in their hands and began to aim.
However, the gunmen were not in a hurry to fire.
Only if the distance between the two parties is closer can the hit of the fire gun be guaranteed.
Under the deliberate release of the fire gunmen, Shang Kexi led his own soldiers and rushed within ten steps of the fire gunmen.
The average archer can basically hit the target with 100 shots within 20 steps.
Although the accuracy of the fire blunderbuss is a little off, the distance is close and it can still hit the target with perfect accuracy.
boom! boom! boom!
More than a dozen fire cannons were fired almost at the same time, and the cannons flew out from the mouth.
At such a short distance, unless you deliberately shoot into the sky, it would be difficult to miss.
The gun easily tore open the armor and stomach of Shang Kexi and penetrated into the body, crushing the flesh and blood inside.
Shang Kexi seemed to have received a heavy blow on his chest, his back bowed, a mouthful of blood sprayed out from his mouth, and he fell to the ground.
The future King Zhishun died in Lushun City.
Several of his soldiers were also hit by muskets. The muskets tore the armor around the hit spot, tore the body behind the armor, and took away the lives of these people.
There were dozens of officers and soldiers who were following behind. When they saw the death of Shang Kexi and his Qing soldiers, they immediately dispersed and fled for their lives.
Originally, these people were forcibly escorted back to Tongjin Gate by Shang Kexi's soldiers. They had been beaten and frightened a long time ago, and they no longer had the courage to fight against the Tiger Flag soldiers.
Soon there was a scene involving more than a dozen soldiers chasing hundreds of officers and soldiers.
There are two gates in the south city of Lushun, namely Tongjin Gate in the south and Renhe Gate in the north.
When Chen Jisheng came back from Tongjin Gate, he went directly to Renhe Gate in the north.
At this time, Renhemen was guarded by guerrilla Wang Tingrui.
Chen Jisheng, who came to Renhemen, did not blame Wang Tingrui for lying.
Although Huanglong went out of the city to attack the artillery position of Tiger Flag outside the city, he failed in the end and still left the city without permission despite the order.
Whether to make the Huanglong round or flat depends entirely on Chen Jisheng's thoughts.
"General." Wang Tingrui greeted him personally.
Chen Jisheng looked at Wang Tingrui and asked, "How is the situation here? Have the tiger thieves come to attack the Renhe Gate you are guarding?"
"Replying to the general, no tiger thieves came. Instead, Vice General Huang led the cavalry in the city and forcibly left the city through the Renhe Gate guarded by the last general." Wang Tingrui said.
Chen Jisheng waved his hand and said, "I know about Huang Long, so I won't talk about him anymore."
"Yes." Wang Tingrui bowed in response, and then took a step aside, leaving room for Chen Jisheng to pass.
Chen Jisheng led his men to the Renhe Gate and stopped. He turned back and said to Wang Tingrui: "The general at Tongjin Gate has been handed over to Shang Dusi. You, Wang Youqi, will be in charge of the Renhe Gate."
"With Shang Dusi here, Tongjinmen will definitely ensure that everything is fine." Wang Tingrui said auspicious words.
Chen Jisheng nodded in agreement and said, "I think so too."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the closed Renhe Gate, and said: "I am worried that the tiger thieves will attack the North City when they see that they cannot capture the South City. I need to go to the North City in person to take charge. After I leave later, I must Remember to keep an eye on the Renhe Gate."
"General, are you leaving Nancheng?" Wang Tingrui looked at Chen Jisheng in surprise.
As the important government office of Lushun, North City of Lushun has more garrison troops than Nancheng, but in order to facilitate the delivery of supplies to various places, almost most of the supplies shipped from Dengzhou are in Nancheng.
Leaving Nancheng at this time would be equivalent to giving up the supplies stored in the city.
