Compared to hitting a flying bird, hitting the head of an Eight Banner soldier is a piece of cake.
Once shot, the victim may suffer minor injuries and bleeding, or die on the spot.
As more and more defenders fell, the defenders on the city wall felt more and more pressure and gradually began to lose strength.
At this time, Jirgalang moved.
He rode on his horse, brandishing his sword and moving forward: "Today the Ming army first filled the trenches, and then began to attack the city. They have been busy for three hours and are already exhausted!"
"Order all units to advance the battle line and attack the Ming army that is attacking the city!"
"Yes!" The messenger waved the flag and passed on the general's order.
The 60,000 Eight Banners soldiers were divided into three armies: left, center and right, and launched an attack on the Ming army.

Wang Yongji divided the 60,000 Ming troops into three parts.
Among them, 10,000 infantrymen attacked the east, west and south of Matsuyama Castle.

Of the remaining 50,000 Ming troops, 20,000 were stationed in the west of the city to protect the siege troops there.

The right wing came into direct contact with the Ming army in the west of the city.
The central army came to the north of Songshan City and shouted to the defenders: "Open the city gate quickly, we want to enter the city to help you resist the Ming army."
Crunch!
The capstan turned and the city gate was opened from the inside.
Thousands of Eight Banners soldiers rushed towards the city gate on horseback upon seeing this.
After entering the city, they ran as quickly as possible to the foot of the east, west and south walls.

The Ming army, which was about to climb to the top of the city wall, was defeated again under the fierce counterattack of the Eight Banners Army.
