The battle has just begun, the Ming army seems to have reached the last moment, the main general Li Jin, formerly known as Li Guo, is Li Zicheng's nephew, known as 'a tiger', he is the leader of the Dashun army, and the combat effectiveness of the veterans of the Dashun army under him is also very strong.

Even the Tongguan, which was the last firmly defended by the famous general Sun Chuanting, who killed Gao Yingxiang and repeatedly defeated Li Zicheng's Dashun army, was broken by Li Jin with his troops.

Giving birth to a son should be like Li Yazi, it is precisely with his nephew Li Jin who broke through Tongguan City and killed his old enemy Sun Chuanting, Li Zicheng can wave the Northern Expedition without scruples, and finally win Yanjing.

But no matter how brave Li Jin was, he couldn't stop the Qing army's advance in this Yuezhou city. The artillery fire and the sea of people of the Qing army caused the more than 100,000 defenders that Li Jin had just expanded to suffer tens of thousands of casualties every day. The people who first developed artillery and gunpowder are now being ravaged by the artillery fire of their enemies.

"General, we can't stand it! The Tartar fire is too fierce! Li Jin's lieutenant Yuan Zongdi braved the artillery fire and came to Li Jin's side on his knees, reporting the unbearable status quo on his side.

Li Jin dusted off the broken bricks on his shoulders, spit out the mud and sand in his mouth, and said hatefully with a pair of blood-red eyes: "You and Lai Heng take our headquarters to withdraw first, the blood of the Dashun army can't all be folded here, we will live to take revenge in the future!" ”

Yuan Zongdi said: "Won't General Zhi withdraw with us?" ”

"No!" Li Jin replied resolutely, facing the enemy in front of him, he wanted to swallow it in one gulp, even if doing so would break his front teeth.

Looking at the Qing army that pounced on the city like ants, Li Jin said indignantly: "Even if you exchange twenty lives for a Tartar, you have to let them die a few more." ”

"But......" Yuan Zongdi just wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Li Jin: "Don't say it again, you should withdraw first!" The enemy who attacked us was Wu Sangui! It's Wu Sangui! Do you know? ”

The Ming army was bleeding, and the entire Yuezhou City was bleeding, but Li Jin and these people were not only bleeding, but they were still crying in their hearts. The fair world they had built with their own hands was destroyed by the sudden defection of Wu Sangui, who was negotiating, from King Chuang leading 20,000 horses into Beijing on March 17, 1644, to the defeat of the Shanhaiguan Stone Battle on April 21, this ideal country of Juntian was exempted from success to failure in only one month and four days.

The ideal belongs to his Li Jintong uncle, and it is also the one of all the soldiers of the Dashun Army. Since Li Zicheng killed the creditor who almost forced him to death, Ai Zhao, and killed He Gai Hu and Han Jin'er, Li Zicheng has only Li Jin by his side.

He was his first soldier and his last. Li Jin's whole life has been remembering that ideal country, remembering his great uncle, he misses it in his heart, and he writes with pen and paper. What I want to tell is not only memory, but also pride!

Li Jin's righteous son Li Laiheng was withdrawn, and the deputy general Yuan Zongdi was also withdrawn, but he was still there.

Yes, the enemy is very, very strong, even when the Dashun army is at its strongest, it has not been able to defeat this enemy.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the rebel army were wiped out by the Qing army in just one year, and the battle between my uncle and the Qing army lasted only one year and half a month from the time he entered Beijing to his death.

However, until the end, the Dashun army was counterattacking, they knew that the enemy was extremely powerful, but they dared to line up to meet it! They charged! They attack at night! They fight! They sacrificed......

In Yuezhou, countless shells rang out around Li Jin, and many soldiers fell in front of his eyes, they died in the smoke of gunpowder, they died in the flames, they fell under the enemy's sword, they fell down the city with the enemy in their arms - if this is still a city.

The number of artillery of the Qing army was 12 times that of the total number of artillery of the Ming army defending the city, and after only three days of siege, the Ming army's defensive firepower was destroyed, leaving only more than 20 artillery pieces to hide in the relatively strong fortress.

The battlements were gone, the enemy buildings collapsed, and the so-called fortified fortresses were all simple buildings built by the Ming army with wood and stone.

In the city of Yuezhou, which is constantly dying, the dark clouds in the sky are overwhelming, so that people can't see a trace of sunlight, and a heavy snow is also floating down at an inopportune time, the cold wind in the sky is bleak, the snow is flying, and the ground is full of scorched earth and gunsmoke.

The enemy wore thick cotton armor, but the Ming army had only a single coat; The enemy had powerful artillery, while the Ming army had the fighting spirit and determination to not give up an inch.

Although there were nearly 10,000 casualties every day, every night, thousands of mortal warriors climbed down the city and launched a mortal charge against the enemy's camp, and when they left, they just smiled and hugged their fists and waved their hands at their comrades. Life and death, gain and loss, have been looked down upon by these warriors of the Ming Dynasty, and all this is only for the sky above their heads, the ground under their feet and the home in their hearts.

Seven days after the battle, the Qing army broke through the city wall, and although the Ming army recaptured the city wall after a desperate battle, it was already exhausted. When faced with the enemy's breakthrough again, they were really powerless to stop it, and they tried their best to make the Qing army pay the price of tens of thousands of casualties.

But no matter how hard they tried, they still lost the city wall in the end, but at this point, if Wu Sangui felt that he had succeeded, then he was wrong.

Li Jin's retreat into the city of the Ming army is still close to 50,000 people, simply killed red eyes, since the defeat of the Shanhaiguan army, Li Jin's eyes have always been red, and they have not changed back to their original color.

Now that Li Jin has red eyes, and since the defenders have reported their mortal intentions, they will definitely fight to the death against the Qing army in every street and alley and every house.

Before the war, the people of Yuezhou had basically been moved to the rear, and the Ming army built some tunnels and closed small pillboxes in the city.

They relied on these improvised bunkers, bows and crossbows, and even bricks and stones, to continue their defense.

On the other hand, the Qing army at this time, due to the loss of artillery support outside the city, could only attack the fortresses everywhere with close-quarters blades, and its effect and losses can be imagined.

The Qing army suffered heavy casualties, especially in the assault on the city walls. It's just that because Li Jin didn't have enough time to build the fortress before the war, the number of fortresses in the city was not particularly large, and the number of masonry structures was even less.

However, the Qing army gradually figured out the trick after a few days of fierce fighting, and began to gradually clear the Ming army in the city by means of fire attack, so far it has been ten days of street fighting.
