Enemies on all sides!

The Qing soldiers poured towards the city like a frenzy of the angry sea, launching round after round of fierce attacks.

Gradually, the Ming army also had a feeling of hardship.

Zhu Youlang frowned tightly and looked solemn.

"Please also ask Your Majesty to return to the palace to avoid the edge for a while!"

Mu Tianbo saw that the situation was unfavorable, and hurriedly rushed to the son of heaven to admonish.

Zhu Youlang shook his head and said, "The soldiers are working hard for me, how can I go." I'm here, don't take a step back! ”

Seeing that Emperor Yongli was so resolute, Mu Tianbo was not easy to persuade anymore, so he asked Jinyi Wei to protect the Son of Heaven.

At that moment, a stray arrow shot at him, piercing the right eye of a brocade guard. But when he heard the scream, the man died of pain instantly.

The brocade-clothed guard soldier was only a few steps away from Zhu Youlang, and the shock he felt when he saw the guard being shot to death was difficult to describe in words.

Life is so fragile in troubled times.

No wonder there is a saying that it is better to be a peace dog than a troubled person.

But the more this is the case, the more Zhu Youlang has a strong sense of responsibility.

As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he has the responsibility to make the people live a good life.

And the premise of all this is to regain the land that belonged to the Han family from the hands of the Manchus!

It all starts with this battle!

"Fetch the bow!"

There is no stronger proof than action, and Zhu Youlang is a symbol.

As long as he doesn't retreat, the soldiers won't retreat!

After Colonel Jinyiwei presented the golden bow, Zhu Youlang bent his bow and aimed an arrow at a Qing officer.

Taking a deep breath and accumulating enough strength, Zhu Youlang loosened the strings.

The feathered arrow burst through the air and hit the target steadily.

"Your Majesty's Divine Marksmanship!"

The soldiers of the Ming army rejoiced and praised from the bottom of their hearts.

"Kill the enemy with me!"

Zhu Youlang raised his arms and shouted.

For a time, the Ming army was full of momentum, and they bent their bows and arrows to block the Qing soldiers.

...

...

The battle situation has reached a stalemate for a while, which Zhao Butai does not want to see.

The longer the stalemate lasted, the more unfavorable it was for the Qing army.

Their grain and grass could not withstand long-term consumption, and the Ming army was backed by a strong city, so they needed as much grain as they wanted.

"What does General Pingxi think?"

Zhao Butai turned his head to look at Wu Sangui.

In fact, there are still many Qing army garrisons in Guizhou, if you pull down the subordinates, you can first Mingjin to collect the troops, and wait until Guizhou reinforcements arrive to attack the city.

While waiting, they can even rush to make some siege equipment such as battering rams and rushing cars. When the Qing army in Guizhou came to Kunming with artillery, it was the time for them to join forces to attack.

From any point of view, this is the most reasonable choice.

The only problem is that it doesn't look good on the face.

Therefore, Zhao Butai threw the problem to Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui secretly scolded Zhao Butai for being shameless in his heart.

The old dog knew that this was a bad choice, but let him answer.

"Maybe you can take another look?"

Wu Sangui thought about it for a long time, and came up with a less responsible answer.

At this moment, a cannonball exploded next to Zhao Butai, and Zhao Butai was blown away.

In an instant, the earth flew and the smoke billowed out.

Wu Sangui was stupid with fright, and it took a long time to react.

It stands to reason that their location is far away from Kunming City, and the Ming artillery should not be able to hit it.

Several banner soldiers and minions panicked to help Zhao Butai, who had been bombed by dogs gnawing mud, to pick him up, but saw that the general of Zhengnan was spitting blood from his mouth and was dying.

Such a terrible thing happened in an instant, and Zhao Butai's personal guards were all stupid.

However, Wu Sangui calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Don't you want to withdraw your troops?" If you continue to fight, will you delay General Zhengnan's treatment of injuries? ”

He didn't say this because he was really worried about Zhao Butai's injury, but because he found a reason to withdraw from the army.

In fact, Wu Sangui had long wanted to withdraw his troops from Mingjin.

This Kunming City seems to be a very difficult bone to gnaw, and it is too light for them to come without any artillery or large siege equipment.

The reason why he has not given the order is because neither Wu Sangui nor Zhao Butai wants to be responsible.

After all, voluntarily withdrawing is a not-so-nice order.

Now that Zhao Butai was injured by artillery, Wu Sangui can put the blame on Zhao Butai, so as to preserve both himself and the strength of the descendant army.

This is crucial for a general like him.

He was able to get to where he is today because he had an army that was quite capable of fighting.

At present, although this army has suffered losses, fortunately, the losses are not too large, and it is a good strategy to stop losses in time.

The minions beside Zhao Butai saw Wu Sangui giving the order, but they were a little hesitant.

A servant saw what Zhao Butai was muttering, and hurriedly leaned down to listen carefully.

After listening to it for a long time, he said loudly: "The general has an order, immediately Mingjin and withdraw the troops." ”

At this point, Wu Sangui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

...

...

"Your Majesty, the East Captives have withdrawn!"

Mu Tianbo couldn't believe his eyes, and said almost ecstatically.

Zhu Youlang looked in the direction pointed by Mu Tianbo, and sure enough, he saw the Qing soldiers retreating like a tide.

"This is a retreat?"

Of course, he didn't know that the cannon blew Zhao Butai half to death, and the Qing army was already in chaos and had no will to fight.

Zhu Youlang felt a little disappointed, and said to Mu Tianbo: "Do you think Qianguo Gong can take advantage of the situation to go out of the city to pursue?" ”

Although he knew that it was unlikely that the enemy army would be completely annihilated in this battle, Zhu Youlang still wanted to suffer as much battle damage as possible.

"I'm afraid that the Dongyu is pretending to be defeated and luring our army out of the city."

Mu Tianbo is an old man with a serious character, and when he saw that the Son of Heaven asked him for advice, he replied instinctively.

"I think we should take advantage of the victory to pursue it."

Zhu Youlang read many classic battle examples in later generations, and after comparison, he found that the retreat of the Qing army was very panicked.

If this is all acted, then the acting is too realistic.

He really couldn't bear to let the Qing army go like this.

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, you might as well send a partial division to pursue. In this way, even if Dongyu is a feint, there will not be much loss. ”

Zhu Youlang also knew that he couldn't press the treasure on this opportunity, so he nodded and ordered: "Spread my will and order Bai Wenxuan, the king of Gongchang, to lead his troops to attack." ”

Bai Wenxuan defended the east gate, and it was ideal to pursue from the east gate.

In the case of only opening one city gate, even if the Qing army feigned defeat, there would not be much risk.

After all, the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, and every word he says is a holy decree.

Even if there is a brocade school, he went to the east of the city to preach the message.

Bai Wenxuan wanted to ask the King of Jin before talking, but seeing that the enemy army had a tendency to run away, he decided to open the city gate immediately and pursue.

Before leaving the city, he instructed his lieutenant general to block the city gate immediately if the situation was not right, and not to worry about his safety.

Although the lieutenant general couldn't bear it, he also knew that there was no way to do it, so he bit his lip and nodded.

"The strong man was hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Hun blood. Sons, the opportunity has come to avenge the tragic deaths of the people. Open the city gate and go with General Ben to kill the captives! ”

Bai Wenxuan, who was dressed in bright armor, commanded domineeringly.
