With the unity of the generals and the support of the people, the wall will be completed in a few days.

Zhu Dadian personally saw it and said: "Okay, I'm no longer afraid of the rebels' harassment, I'll just implement the strategy of holding on and seeing how long the rebels can hold out." ”

Wang Laizhi said: "Not only is the speed of building the wall amazing, because the generals took turns to feint, the rebels did not notice it, and it was not until Gao Gonggong bombarded the city that the rebels panicked. The plan of General Wang Zhifu and others to conquer Shuicheng by tunnel blasting is also proceeding smoothly and is almost complete. It seems that the day of the restoration of Dengzhou is not far off. ”

Wang Lai hired Chongzhen's four-year martial champion. The martial arts of the Ming Dynasty did not have a palace examination for a long time, and without the palace examination, there would be no title of "Wu Zhuangyuan". Wang Laipin was the first person in the Ming Dynasty to be a real martial champion, brave and strategic, and was highly valued by Zhu Dadian.

Therefore, when Zhu Dadian heard this, he said with great interest: "What you said is very true, I don't know if there is a way to break the enemy?" ”

Wang Laipin was not polite, pondered for a while, and said: "Judging from the attack and defense of several days, both sides have artillery, and it is not easy to attack nearby. From this point of view, the two sides have won and lost each other, and it can be regarded as a draw.

However, our foreign aid continued, and there were many generals, and General Wang found a strategy to blast the tunnel, while the rebels were alone, with no foreign aid at all, and the people who went out of the city to fight were only Li Jiucheng's father and son.

If our generals take the opportunity to take turns to besiege Li Jiucheng and his son and kill them, the rebels will be chaotic, and our army can take the opportunity to carry out tunnel blasting and blow up the city wall. ”

Zhu Dadian said: "What I said is exactly what I want, and I will act as soon as I say it." ”

Li Jiucheng didn't know, and thought that as in the past, as long as he went out to disperse the officers and soldiers.

Clearly, he was thinking as he walked: "The country has always been inhabited by capable people, these two guys, they haven't done much since they started the army, and they dare to point fingers at us?"

Don't pee and take pictures, what kind of virtue are you? Hmph, if it weren't for the love of our father and son, how many of the soldiers would be willing to follow you? ”

The more Li Jiucheng thought about it, the more he felt that he had worked hard, and the more he felt wronged, and said secretly: "Let's not worry about you, when Dengzhou is stable, we will get rid of you sooner or later." ”

After making up his mind, seeing that the city gate had arrived, he couldn't help but think again: "Now let's go out and fight first, and let you see Li's methods, so as to save you from swaying and disturbing the morale of the army." ”

Thinking secretly, he saw that some soldiers had opened the city gate, and suddenly sent their horses on horseback and led their troops to rush out.

The officers and men had already made preparations and surrounded them together.

Li Jiucheng was conceited and brave, but he was not afraid and fought hard.

Helplessly, the officers and soldiers surrounded them tightly as if they were crazy, and the officers and generals took turns to fight with them. Li Jiucheng finally fell into decline and was killed by officers and soldiers.

When his son Li Yingyuan saw it, despite the dissuasion of his generals, he struggled to come over, trying to snatch his body, and was killed by the officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers shouted: "Li Jiucheng is dead-the rebels are descending quickly-"

When the general Wang Zhifu heard about it, he was busy carrying out the blasting.

Gao Qiqian also took the opportunity to fire artillery into the city to cover it.

Besides, Wang Zideng, although he is inferior to Li Jiucheng in all aspects, is Kong Youde's cronies, and after being ordered to temporarily replace Li Jiucheng, he was thinking: "Who is Li Jiucheng, deputy marshal, let's replace him, won't we also enter the high-level?"

What is the high-level, once Dengzhou is stable, it will be the hero of the founding of the country. How many generations has our Wang family experienced, and how many heroes have been the founders of the country?

Just for the sake of this founding hero, we swear to help Marshal Du defend this Dengzhou City. ”

Thinking to himself, he shouted, "Open the gates of the city quickly, let the brothers outside in, and if any officers and soldiers are following, immediately fire at me and blow them up fiercely." ”

The fact is that although the officers and men shouted fiercely, no one followed.

Wang Zideng didn't doubt him, he was relieved, and couldn't help but think again: "We can't ask ourselves as well as Vice Marshal Li, but diligence can make up for clumsiness, as long as we do our best, we shouldn't be far behind."

Also, we don't have a group of our own people, so we have to buy people's hearts. Otherwise, when it comes to a critical time, who will be willing to die for us?

Well, what we did just now was good, we obviously didn't see the officers and soldiers, but we said that the situation was more critical, and the results were still there, don't you see the gratitude of those brothers who retreated into the city? ”

Thinking about it, he got up and went to the gates of the city to inspect in person: "What is an inspection? Patrolling is when someone looks up. What's that feeling like? It's definitely not the same as bending your eyebrows, haha. However, we still need to be gracious, and we must have our own team. ”

Just as he was calculating, there was a sudden earth-shattering loud noise, and the city wall collapsed, and the officers and soldiers rushed in after him.

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and asked urgently, "What the hell is going on?" ”

A subordinate general came over and said: "The officers and soldiers carried out the tunnel blasting, and the city wall was blown open. ”

He said: "Where there is no tear opening, whenever there is an attack, just greet with artillery fire, and the rest of the people will follow me to block the mouth and swear to defend the marshal to the death." ”

With that, the first soldier rushed over.

Seeing this, the rebel soldiers refused to spare their lives, and they all moved forward, and everyone scrambled to be the first.

When the officers and soldiers saw that the city wall had been blown open, their morale was greatly boosted, and some of the generals shouted to meet them in unison.

One side swore to hold on, one side sacrificed his life to attack the city, and when the two sides met, the sword and sword shadow, and the flesh and blood flew sideways.

Wang Zideng did not know that Kong Youde and others had evacuated one after another, so he fought desperately, because Ding Sihou, deputy chief soldier of the officers and soldiers, Cheng Zhongwen, and Zu Banglou, died bravely one after another, and the officers and soldiers actually fell behind and had to retreat.

The king came to see him, and took the lead with a big sword, bravely took the lead in the city again, and fought hard. Encouraged by this, the officers and men rushed forward again.

The two sides fought fiercely again, and in the fierce battle, Wang Laipin was wounded in many places, but still refused to retreat until he died in the battle.

Zhu Dadian saw it from afar, regretted it in his heart, and was silent for a long time.

At this time, a Chinese army came to report: "Your Excellency Governor Qiqi, news has come from the sea, saying that Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others have fled to the sea one after another. ”

Zhu Dadian was stunned for a moment, then had an idea, and said: "Shout out loud, you must let the rebels hear, one person can't do it, let everyone shout together." ”

Although everyone was puzzled, how dare they disobey, and shouted together: "Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming have fled—the rebels have descended quickly—"

When the rebels heard this, they couldn't distinguish between the true and the false, but their fighting spirit gradually weakened, and Rao is prince Deng repeatedly reprimanded, and the rebels still wavered.

In the stalemate, no matter which side is shaken, it undoubtedly provides an opportunity for the other side.

The officers and men seized the opportunity and struck hard, and the rebels began to rout. As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain, and once the rout begins, it can no longer be stopped.

Wang Zideng was unwilling and tried in vain to stop him, and was trampled to death by the retreating rebels.

With the death of Wang Zideng, the rebels lost command and became more and more chaotic.

The officers and men took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, captured more than 1,000 rebels, and killed, hanged themselves, and threw themselves into the sea, killing 4 to 5,000 people.
