The Ming army appeared under the city of Thanh Hoa!

When this news reached Hu Jili's ears, the forty-year-old Anyue ancestor of Rongma directly blew up.

"There are more than 30,000 Ming troops under Thanh Hoa City? And cannons? Hu Jili roared like thunder, and the general's report was torn to pieces, "It's all nonsense!" Are the coalition forces at the front all blind? How could such a large-scale Ming army infiltrate! Even if the Ming army will fly away, what about the artillery? Can cannons fly too? Fart!! ”

The defenders of Thanh Hoa City have been frightened, the Ming army besieging the city is like a madman, and the Ming army without the siege ladder braves the rain of arrows to rush to the city gate, just in order to blow up the city gate, the Annan army in Thanh Hoa blocked the city gate hole with stones, and the city gate cannot be entered.

However, the continuous gunpowder blasting has caused serious wall cracks in the city wall at the city gate, and after several explosions, it is very likely to collapse, and then the Ming army can rush in along this gap.

This time, the mountain army did not carry dry rations, and everyone carried nearly 15 catties of gunpowder with them, and the amount of 20,000 people was too easy to blow up a city.

Therefore, the garrison general of Thanh Hoa could only make the situation more serious, and even bluntly said, "If there are no reinforcements within ten days, Thanh Hoa will be lost." ”

"Ten days, ten days!"

Hu Jili had red eyes and roared angrily, "Tell him that if you can't hold it for a month, you will punish the Nine Clans!" I'll punish him for the Nine Clans!! ”

Angry, Hu Jili still forced himself to calm down, "Where is Ruan Jingzhen's army now?" ”

Ruan Jingzhen is another confidant of Hu Jili, and the main general who was previously responsible for searching for the mountain army in the Red Clay Plain was Ruan Jingzhen.

"General Ruan is rushing to Xianzi Pass, and he can arrive tonight."

"Immediately send an order, give me to take Xianzi Pass immediately and gallop to help Thanh Hoa." Hu Jili gasped for breath, and even had to close his eyes to restrain the nausea caused by dizziness.

"The order is simple, and the coalition forces on the front line have brought back 100,000 people."

Hu Jili understands in his heart that the combat effectiveness of this group of so-called soldiers in China is too poor, although he has not fought with this group of Ming troops who have rushed in, but since he knew the existence of this group of Ming troops to the present day, the latter has fought in Qinghua, before and after only ten days, an army, ten days, while traveling 1,100 miles, he can also easily solve the county towns along the road to replenish food, this kind of combat effectiveness, makes Hu Jili's heart chill.

The coalition defense line at the front line is really important, but Thanh Hoa is even more important! If Qinghua loses it, there is no need to fight this battle again, and it may be possible to die a dignified death if he goes directly to Nanjing to surrender.

"Guozu, there are still tens of thousands of people in Hanoi City, do you want to?"

Hu Jili shook his head, "I can't move for the time being, the marching speed of this Ming army is too fast, and I am afraid that they will be deceitful." ”

It will take more than 20 days to transfer troops from the front line to Thanh Hoa at the earliest, so Hu Jili gave a death order, "Five days!" Within five days, Nguyen Kyung Trung must rush to Thanh Hoa! Otherwise, let him send his head. ”

And when Ruan Jingzhen received Hu Jili's military order, the former was directly red-eyed. "100,000 men divided into three shifts, 30,000 keep vigil, 30,000 rest, 40,000 cut wood to make ladders to climb the city, and tomorrow morning, 30,000 resting will attack the city, and the remaining 70,000 will repair."

Speaking of this, Ruan Jingzhen glanced at the group of generals with murderous spirits, "From this general to the next, if you can't beat Xianzi Pass in three days, you will be killed!" ”

The scouts have already probed seven or eight, and the Ming army in Xianzi Pass has no more than 5,000 people in the sky, and 100,000 people have tackled the key points, even if they take their lives, they will exhaust the Ming army on the opposite side to death!

Luchuan, the camp of the Ming army.

Xu Huizu quietly read the book in the camp, and Mu Sheng, who was not far away, was anxiously restless, this morning the scout reported that there was an abnormal movement in the Annan coalition army in the mountains opposite, and now three hours have passed, and there is no specific situation coming, which makes Mu Sheng not in a hurry.

"It should be more than a month since the mountain army entered Annam."

"Thirty-seven days."

Xu Huizu nodded, "From here to Hanoi, if the people of Annam have a road that we don't know that can be used to ride horses to report to the army, it will take at least three days, and there is a move today, which means that as early as many days ago, there was a big incident in the rear of Annam, and it is useless for you to be anxious now." ”

After a few days, either the mountain army was dumpled by Hu Jili, or it was hit in Qinghua City, the first possibility is not very likely, if the mountain army has been completely annihilated, Hu Jili will definitely not move the troops of the coalition army, unless there is fraud, or it can only be the latter.

Whether it was conquered in Thanh Hoa, or not conquered and dragged in Thanh Hoa, this time the mission of the mountain army has been accomplished.

Hu Jili is panicking now.

"Urgent!"

The tent of the big camp was opened, and a pawn rushed into the tent and knelt on one knee, "Grandpa, the coalition army has moved, and there are about 100,000 people pulling out the camp and heading south. ”

Xu Huizu stood up with a snort and frowned, "Only 100,000?" ”

The scout nodded firmly, "That's the only number, there are still many soldiers in the coalition camp." ”

Xu Huizu started pacing back and forth in the camp, "Only 100,000 people have been transferred, and Hu Jili is cautious enough." ”

"Grandpa!"

Mu Sheng stood up and said anxiously, "It can't be delayed any longer, for more than a month, the mountain army is now afraid that the attrition is serious, 20,000 brothers, let's move the army." ”

20,000 mountain troops! The elite who has been trained in more than a year.

Xu Huizu's face was cloudy, "Now that we are dispatched, there are still 100,000 enemies in front of us, thousands of miles of dangerous mountains." ”

Gritting his teeth, Xu Huizu looked at the scout, "The scout team is out, we must find a way to find the mountain army, and tell them that there are still 100,000 people in Luchuan!" ”

Mu Sheng's eyes suddenly turned red, "Grandpa!" ”

If it drags on any longer, the mountain army is afraid that it will be wiped out.

"It's better to die 20,000 than 100,000!" Xu Huizu shouted, "The road ahead is unknown, who knows the current situation of the mountain army at this time, what if the brothers of the mountain army have been wiped out?" This 100,000 people in Annan pulled out the camp to help, in case it was Hu Jili's treacherous plan?

Our army entered rashly, you and I died in a small matter, once the army is lost, Dao Ganmeng and Hu Jili can drive directly to Yunnan! You say, is it 20,000 lives that are important, or is Yunnan Province important! ”

Mu Sheng swallowed his saliva, what Xu Huizu said was not unreasonable, compared to the weight of the country, 20,000 lives are really too light.

"Brother of the Mountain Army, it's too difficult."

Mu Sheng sighed, only to feel that his heart was about to be burned to ashes by the fire, and choked up.

The mountain army is now indeed at the point of exhaustion!

Ruan Jing really attacked the city day and night, Liu Zheng didn't even have the kung fu to close his eyes, as if nailed to the city wall, he mechanically stabbed the bayonet in his hand into the dense body of the Annan army, and then pulled it out, next!

One, two, three.

Liu Zheng couldn't even remember how many enemies he had killed, he only knew that the corpses on Xianzi Pass had been piled up in almost every corner, and it was roughly estimated that at least 10,000 people had died in the Annan army!

"100 households."

A comrade-in-arms from the same township came over to support Liu Zheng, "Let's take a break, the barbarian has retreated." ”

Under the city pass, the dense Annan army retreated like a tide, and after two consecutive days of siege battles, the barbarians could not bear such huge losses, and the impact of the corpse mountain and sea of blood on the spirit was huge.

"Can't be careless."

Liu Zheng lay on the battlement, looking at the sky, "The enemy has no oil, and he can't attack the city only in the dark, and now there is still an hour before it gets dark, if I am the enemy's main general, I will definitely attack once." ”

Coughing lightly twice, pulling his arms that were almost cramping, Liu Zheng frowned, "Erhu, how many brothers do we have left?" ”

Erhu was stunned, looked left and right, and said astringently, "There are no statistics yet, but we have 100 households, and only the two of us are left." ”

We have 100 households, and only the two of us are left!
