At this time, the good town is no longer the usual quiet and prosperous, and the city wall is full of Ming soldiers wearing mandarin duck uniforms, among which there are some young adults wearing ordinary people's clothes.

Outside the city of Liangxiang, a cavalry unit of more than 10,000 people was encamped, not caring at all about the Ming soldiers in the county seat. There were even dozens of cavalry cavalry running under the city walls and loudly provoking.

"Lord Shi, can we keep the good town"?

Liangxiang County Commander Li Guangshen stood on the city wall and looked worriedly at the black cavalry outside the city.

Shi Guogang is the garrison of Liangxiang County, and it is his duty to protect the territory and the people. Just looking at the black cavalry outside the black city, my heart is also up and down. As for whether he can keep the good hometown, he has no bottom in his heart, so he can only reply hard.

"Lord County Commander, do you also know what the Liangxiang garrison looks like? At present, I have tried my best to find only 1,500 people available, and even if I add the ordinary people of animal origin in the city, there are only more than 3,000 people under my hands.

If it is short, I can be sure that I will hold the city, but if there are no reinforcements, .........."

Although Shi Guogang didn't finish his words, Li Guangshen had already heard the meaning of his words, and he could only sigh softly helplessly.

"Lord Shi, I see that the Mongolian cavalry outside the city is completely defenseless against our army, can we take the opportunity to go out of the city to attack them, so that the pressure on defending the city can also be relieved in the future."

Xu Minghuai, the master of Liangxiang on the side, stretched out his head to look at the defenseless Mongolian cavalry outside the city, and couldn't help but turn his head to ask Shi Guogang.

Listening to Xu Minghuai's words, Shi Guogang couldn't cry or laugh in his heart. Not to mention whether the officers and soldiers in the city have the courage to go out of the city to attack, but their own 3,000 men and horses, if they really go out of the city, may not have arranged the military formation, and they were directly scattered by the Mongolian cavalry.

"Master Xu, all our soldiers are infantry, and it is even more difficult to fight cavalry with infantry, and most of them are ordinary people, so it is impossible to organize an effective attack. Once defeated, it is very likely to cause incalculable losses to the morale of our army, which will be extremely unfavorable to the future defense of the city."

Although Xu Minghuai is just a master bookkeeper, in terms of official position, he is only from the seventh grade, and he is a military attache of the fifth grade. It's just that now Da Ming Wen is heavy on military and light on martial arts, even if he is a military attache of the fifth grade, but when he sees a civil official from the seventh grade, he must treat each other politely, which is why Shi Guogang is so patient to explain.

"But Lord Shi, I remember that Yue Wumu led the Yue family army in the previous dynasty to break 100,000 in 800, and the Jin soldiers who fought were killed and wounded heavily."

Shi Guogang couldn't wait to cut Xu Minghuai's head open at this time, wanting to see what was in his head.

There are 800 broken 100,000, do you think those 800 people are all heavenly soldiers, or 100,000 golden soldiers are fools, standing there and letting you cut and kill.

And even if he is real, he is Shi Guogang, not Yue Wumu. If the infantry defeats the cavalry, you can only find it in it.

"Okay, Lord Shi, Master Xu and I are both civilian officials, and we don't know anything about military affairs at all. So this time I will ask Lord Shi to defend the city, if there is anything you need help with, just say it."

Li Guangshen looked at Shi Guogang, who was crying and laughing, and waved his hand, and knew that Xu Minghuai's words were a little too whimsical, so he motioned to Xu Minghuai to stop talking, and explained to Shi Guogang apologetically.

"The county commander is polite, as the garrison of Liangxiang, I will definitely live and die with Liangxiang. However, the official does have one thing to ask for, now that there is a shortage of food and grass in the army, and there are many soldiers who have not sounded for several months, if they can, I hope that the county commander will sow some silver taels, which can also stimulate the fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers defending the city."

Shi Guogang said calmly, with a slight remembrance in his eyes.

"After the official goes back, he will immediately arrange manpower to hand over the grain, grass and military salary to Lord Shi, but you don't have to ......... the stone garrison."

"Forget it, I won't say anything superfluous, I hope I can drink and have fun with the garrison again in the future." Jiangsu Literature Network

Although Li Guangshen was only a civil official, he also saw Shi Guogang's desire to die, and wanted to comfort him a few words, but he couldn't say anything when the words came to his mouth.

looked at the Mongolian cavalry that had been encamped outside the city, and then looked at the county town that was still calm, and finally walked down the city tower with a blank face.

At this time, in the tent of the Mongol cavalry, Enhe Batu was discussing with Modlertu Nurnisha and the others about how to attack Liangxiang.

"Two, now that the good township is in our eyes, is there any good way for the two of you to take down the good township?"

En, and Batu looked at the map and thought about how to attack the city, since ancient times cavalry was not part of the army attacking the city. In the past, when he fought with Houjin jointly, because of the Jurchens watching from the sidelines, he and the others did not dare to have other ideas, so they could only let the men and horses under his hands pile up regardless of casualties. After a battle, I don't know how many Mongolian athletes died on the battlefield.

"At present, there are still 5,000 men and horses searching around Liangxiang, and there are only more than 10,000 people in the army, or we will send 2,000 men and horses to attack the city and explore the reality of Liangxiang."

Nurnisha suggested that although all three men had the same official position, the men under them were all the same. Where the army goes out to fight must have a commander, if the official position is the same, it will inevitably cause no one to obey anyone, so this time Huang Taiji is to let En and Batu as the commanders of the march.

However, En and Batu also understand some truths in officialdom very well, and they did not fly arrogantly because they were the commanders of this march, and asked the two of them in case of trouble, so as to avoid the contradiction of discord between the generals.

"Modletu, what do you think?" Although Enhe Batu also agreed to Nurnisha's proposal, they still habitually asked.

Seeing that Modletu also nodded in agreement, he directly ordered his men and horses to draw out more than 2,000 people to make a siege formation, while he and Nurnisha stood in the rear of the army, wanting to see the resistance of the Ming army in the city.

Shi Guogang stood on the city wall and looked at the assembled Mongolian soldiers, knowing that the other party should be attacking the city now, and hurriedly asked his men and horses to carefully defend the four city gates.

At this time, more than 2,000 Mongolian cavalry outside Liangxiang City gave up their horses and used them as infantry, and several emergency ladders were placed in the front. A Mongol in armor sits on a horse and wields a sword in his hand. The rest of the Mongol soldiers were dressed in Mongolian robes, looking longingly at the armor on the Mongol's body.

Due to the rise of the Ming Dynasty from the early period to the later period, the Mongols have always been regarded as a thorn in the eye during this time, so when the military is strong, it occasionally goes north to attack Mongolia, even in the later period when the military is weak, it is also an economic blockade, so that the iron tools of the whole Mongolia have become a luxury. Therefore, Mongolia is now so poor that it has to take away its pants, and it is not only a symbol of status, but also a weapon to save life.

"Children, the general has an order, if we take the city, the 110 goods in the city will belong to us.

Eternal God bless, children rush."

With the general's order, more than 2,000 Mongol soldiers roared like wild wolves and rushed to the city gate frantically.

The officers and soldiers who belonged to the garrison on the city wall were still able to hold their breath, but the young men who were recruited were looking at the Mongolian soldiers rushing over in the dark, and their bodies suddenly weakened.

Shi Guogang looked at the performance of everyone on the city wall, and he was very anxious in his heart. Hurriedly commanding the only two artillery pieces on the city gate, he ordered the artillery to immediately fire outside the city.

With two cannon shots, two stone balls the size of a football erupted from the barrel. In an instant, he killed two Mongolian soldiers in front of him, and continued to catapult forward with the remaining strength.

When Enhe Batu, who was standing behind the army, heard two cannon shots, he was so frightened that he hurriedly looked into the distance. It was only after these two cannons that there was no sound again for a long time, and then I was relieved.

"Hurry, why stop, hurry up and launch again."

Shi Guogang hurriedly urged the artillery to continue firing, but the artillery at this time belonged to the filling type. The prepared gunpowder must first be placed in a suitable place and the shells must be dropped. After such a set, it is impossible to complete it in a minute or two.

Several artillerymen hurriedly lit the refilled cannon, and with two cannon sounds, two stones were sprayed again, rushing towards the Mongol soldiers who were approaching the city gate.
