Chapter 135: The City Gate Opens Wide
The city gate made a loud noise, the military advisor disguised as the Emperor Tianyuan was a little anxious, he didn't want to leave like this, if he left, he didn't know how to explain to the Emperor Tianyuan, he was like the general who replaced Nai'er Buhua, messed up everything, he was very confused, and he didn't know how to face the fathers and villagers of the Northern Yuan for a while, behind him was the city of the Northern Yuan, if he gave it up, he would become the sinner of the Northern Yuan.
The military advisor was bitter, after all, internal and external troubles, the people did not like the government of the Northern Yuan, and the Ming army was overwhelming outside, but the shooting he ordered did not achieve results, he thought that the revolver was a long-distance killing artifact, who knows, the Ming Dynasty actually grasped the distance, and did not give him a chance to shoot at all.
"Why doesn't Emperor Tian Yuan show his head!" Ma Sanbao was a little angry, his little face looked a little stiff against the lens of the sniper rifle, compared to him, Zhu Di was a lot cooler, Zhu Di was immersed in the pleasure of commanding, either drumming to march or getting ready to go, or to improve morale, provoking the soldiers who hit the door to become more and more courageous, Zhu Di even mocked the helpless revolver soldiers on the city wall.
There was a crack in the city gate, and even the Beiyuan soldiers in the rear were a little unbearable, they looked at the door bolt that was gradually broken, and they were a little surprised, the siege vehicles of the Ming Dynasty were huge, and even the disguised Tianyuan Emperor was wide-eyed.
"This Da Ming is simply unforgiving! These damn Han Chinese! Hold on, I'll go first! "Can't stand the persuasion of others, this military advisor disguised as the Emperor Tianyuan rode on a horse to the city lord's mansion, the city lord's mansion of this city is very remote, in the most corner of the city, the other city lord's mansions are in the center, and the old city lord in order to escape for his life, specially selected the location of the city lord's mansion in the corner, it is because of this location that it is good to dig through the tunnel to prepare for escape.
"Soldiers! Remember, if the Ming Dynasty surrenders, it will surrender directly, but don't confront the people of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that you will suffer heavy casualties, I have no shame to face the Khan, the Khan trusts me so much, but I have betrayed his trust, and the city will be surrendered, I believe that one day, the Khan will lead us back to the glory of the past! The military advisor spoke, he left the city wall, under the cover of the soldiers, approached the city lord's mansion, and hurriedly sent the order to the soldiers who did not need to escape, he knew that he disguised himself as the identity of the Tianyuan Emperor, if he was caught by the Ming Dynasty, there would be no good results, after all, how could it be possible to keep the local leader alive? This is not a trick of the Ming Dynasty.
Daming did a good ambush around, but did not know the existence of the tunnel, the tunnel is extremely hidden, if it is not for the map left by the old city lord, even the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty do not know the existence of this tunnel, the city is often attacked by Europeans, those Vikings in Eastern Europe are precisely because of Genghis Khan's southern conquest and northern war, resulting in their hatred of the Mongols, which often attacks the Mongolian city, the old city lord is very lucky to escape a catastrophe, but still can't escape time.
The tunnel has obviously not been used for a long time, open the door of the tunnel, the military division smelled a rotten and moldy smell, he looked at the tunnel, a little scared, did not dare to go deeper, fortunately, there are vanguard troops in front of the front, wait for the air to circulate thoroughly, these people slowly enter the tunnel.
The fishy smell and musty smell in the tunnel made him have to cover his ears and nose, outside the door of the tunnel, there was the voice of the people in the city, the people talked about when the Ming Dynasty would be able to break in, they were not like hiding from the plague god to avoid the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, but they really wanted to welcome the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, it is normal to say that the farmland and livestock that the people of the city rely on for their survival are very strong under the care of the Ming soldiers, and the people are grateful to the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and they will not feel that the Ming soldiers have treated them badly.
The pretenders of the Tianyuan Emperor have slipped away, and the soldiers in the city also have the intention of retreating, but the tunnel is an escape channel for one person, but there are too many people, it will definitely attract the attention of the Ming soldiers outside the city, they don't want to expose themselves to the existence of the Tianyuan Emperor is a stand-in, a city, although it is an indispensable city, but as long as the Tianyuan Emperor and his stand-in are still there, sooner or later there is a possibility of turning the tables, the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty gritted their teeth, pretended to hold on, and waited for the Ming army to break through the city.
The city gate is crumbling, the cracks are getting bigger and bigger, and the light outside can already be seen, and the soldiers standing behind the city gate have retreated, for fear that the iron cavalry of the Ming Dynasty will hurt their lives after opening the city gate, life is undoubtedly the most important, at present, the military divisions have ordered to surrender, and they naturally have to cherish their lives.
With a loud bang, the bolt of the door broke, the city gate was wide open, and fresh air poured into the nasal cavity of the Northern Yuan soldiers in the city, only to see a siege vehicle stay outside the city gate, and the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty had long since disappeared, after all, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were also afraid that the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty had prepared a meeting gift for them behind the door, in order to prevent the appearance of bullets and bullets, they hurriedly dodged and did not give the Northern Yuan army a chance.
"Huh? Why is there no movement at all when the city gate is opened? Shouldn't it be a volley of revolvers? Zhu Di looked at the city gate that was knocked open with some doubts, he didn't dare to act rashly, and he didn't dare to let the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty go deep into the tiger's den, once he entered the city, it was the home of the Northern Yuan, even if the city gate was wide open, what matter? Zhu Di will not try things easily, Zhu Di under the influence of Ma Sanbao, his thinking has also changed imperceptibly, he no longer feels that the life of a soldier is not a life, after all, every soldier before participating in the war, is the son of his mother, the husband of his wife, and the father of his child, they are all the pillars of the family, come out to join the army, sooner or later they will die in a foreign land, they all signed a deed of sale, for the sake of Daming, willing to sacrifice their lives, but also to make their family conditions better, only willing to give up their lives, But it's not like they're going to die in vain.
"Brother Xian, what's the matter, there seems to be no will to fight in this city!" Zhu Di looked at Ma Sanbao with some doubts, he picked up the binoculars to observe the city wall, the revolvers on the city wall who were previously tense put away the revolvers in their hands, and seemed to be very calm in greeting the Ming Dynasty, even the city gate was wide open and there was not a single soldier, which couldn't help but make Zhu Di suspect that there was fraud in it.
The city gate is wide open but there is no enemy, in ancient times this is the empty city plan used by Zhuge Liang, of course, the empty city plan means that there is not a single soldier in the city, and now, after the exploration of the telescope and the previous temptation, they also know that this is definitely not an empty city plan, there are a lot of Northern Yuan soldiers lurking in the city, not to mention the thousands of people on the city wall, there must be a lot of hiding in the city, among which there are many fierce generals of the Northern Yuan, most of the generals can follow the Tianyuan Emperor to go on the expedition, only a small number of generals still remain in the territory of the Northern Yuan, this battle, Obviously, Emperor Tian Yuan has been preparing for a long time, and it is impossible to open the city gate without a single soldier or general showing up.
"I'm afraid I don't want to succumb to the majesty of our Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Di took it for granted, he smiled, looked at the city, he saw a few soldiers in the distance sitting outside the teahouse in the city, talking and laughing outside the teahouse, chatting with the people, completely unable to see that this was the eve of the war, this group of soldiers seemed to live an ordinary life.
"Funny? Why are these people not nervous at all, is this looking down on us? Zhu Di looked at the Beiyuan soldiers drinking tea and chatting with some dissatisfaction, this group of Beiyuan soldiers seemed to be a little unseen, and they did not respect the feelings of the Ming soldiers, there was food and drink, Zhu Di even saw the existence of a similar Qinglou, the soldiers wandered in it, and there was no intention of war at all.
"Are these soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty looking down on me? The war is approaching, and it is so slack that there is still fun! Zhu Di's nose was crooked, even Ma Sanbao didn't expect that it was obviously a war period, but the peaceful scene shown by the Northern Yuan Dynasty was completely devoid of the solemnity and grandeur of the war.
"There is fraud in entering the city, wait and see first!" Ma Sanbao said, as smart as he is, he didn't dare to enter the city rashly, for fear of fraud, he had harmed Beiyuan many times, but he didn't want to fall into Beiyuan's trap.
The open city gate was not closed by the soldiers of the Northern Yuan, and it seemed that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were intended to enter the city, however, all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty did not dare to advance rashly, and advancing meant that there was a risk, and they did not dare to joke with their lives.
Inside the city wall, the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty looked at the cowardice of the Ming soldiers, laughed out loud, looked at the serious Ming soldiers, compared with the Northern Yuan soldiers who lived an ordinary life within the city wall, they were completely in two worlds, as if the city wall was a Garden of Eden, and the outside had to experience the torture of blood and sweat.
The soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty even had a lot of wine out of the city, tasting it happily, not caring at all about the Ming soldiers standing outside, and even the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who were playing cards and chatting on the city wall, having a lot of fun, and not being affected by the war at all, the pretender of the Emperor of the Tianyuan Dynasty left, making the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty more fearless, they relied on the Ming Dynasty not to take the initiative to attack them, and became more and more arrogant.
"Why are these soldiers enjoying themselves in our city, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are at the door, and they are still drinking and drinking tea for fun, or we will take refuge in the Ming Dynasty in the future, this Beiyuan is simply a little unreliable!" Many ethnic minority people have talked about the absurdity of the Northern Yuan, they could not have imagined that the soldiers who were majestic in front of them before were now living a rotten life when the city gate was wide open, and they couldn't wait to become a part of the Ming Dynasty and break with this group of Northern Yuan people.
