Tongjimen!

This is one of the thirteen inner city gates of Nanjing city wall, in the early Ming Dynasty, the old east gate of the original Jiqing Road was added to the moat, guarding the boundary between the inner and outer Qinhuai, the gate is the imperial city to the northeast, and the business district is to the southwest, it can be said that it is the throat of Nanjing City, and it is also the largest urn city gate in Chinese history, a unique masterpiece in the history of the world city wall.

The internal structure of Tongji Gate is extremely complex, its shape is unique in China, a city tower, two upper city roads and sidewalks, three urn cities, four gate walls are all arched masonry, and a number of urn holes, the circumference of the urn city is ......

Although I once visited the Zhonghua Gate, I learned some knowledge of Tongji Gate, but in the past, I only knew that it was bigger than the largest existing urn city "Zhonghua Gate", but I still don't know much about how big this urn city is, but now, when the gate of the urn city in the ship-shaped Tongji Gate is opened, looking at the city gate of the black hole, Zhu Mingzhong suddenly gave birth to a kind of timidity, and even a kind of fear - if the Qing army is aware, what should the time be?

"General, don't worry!"

Because he had surrendered to the enemy in Guazhou and let this Ming army "enter the city", he knew that Zhu Yizhu, who could not take off the hat of this "collaborator", would have surrendered with an iron heart, and the reason why this was so was because he knew that there was no way to retreat, and the only thing he could pray for was that the Ming army defeated the Qing army.

Sometimes a general who has no way to retreat is loyal precisely because he has no way to retreat. Sensing that Zhu Mingzhong seemed to be worried, he immediately spoke.

"This Tongji Gate seems to be very dangerous, but in fact, there are only more than a thousand women and children in the city on the city gate, all of which are vulnerable!"

As if he was afraid that the other party would be suspicious, he explained again.

"There are more than 10,000 defenders in this city, if you defend the city, you can only be virtual and real, and the general's soldiers only surround the north and west of Jiangning City, and the east and south directions of Jiangning are almost not a soldier of the Zheng army, this Tongji Gate, naturally there are some soldiers and horses, in fact, the most important thing is that Titicham does not believe in the green camp in this city, and does not dare to let them guard the Tongji Gate, after all, this gate is all over the city, if the green camp is in front of the formation, when the time comes, how can the city resist, and the young bannermen in the city are all dead in the silver mountain, This city is full of women and children......"

As he spoke, Zhu Mingzhong, who had already stepped into the third urn city, had already begun to beckon his subordinates to enter the urn city - the urn city was not only a place to block the enemy, but also a barracks, and because of this, the 6,000 men and horses led by Zhu Mingzhong now only entered the "city within a city".

"Lord Zhu, the rest is up to you!"

When he said something to Zhu Yizhu, Zhu Mingzhong specially reminded him.

"As soon as you attract the attention of the Qing army here, the army will pour into Nanjing from the Shence Gate, and you will be a great achievement at that time, Lord Zhu!"

What the!

Zhu Yizhu looked at the chief soldier beside him in astonishment, his eyes were full of surprise, he, how did he know, this, how could this be......

In an instant, Zhu Yizhu's whole person seemed to have no soul, and there was only one thought left in his heart - fortunately, he saw the opportunity early, otherwise...... Otherwise, even if this person is trapped in Tongji Gate here, and Zheng Chenggong's hundreds of thousands of troops pour into the city from Shence Gate, when the time comes, I am afraid that I will also be dead!

"On the tower of the city is the general, this official is the former Caojiang governor Zhu Yizhu, on the order of the governor, please ask Su Song's general Liang Huafeng and his party to enter the city to discuss matters, and also ask the general to open the gate of the urn city!"

Because he had already received the order, Zhu Yizhu said this, and seeing that those reinforcements had entered the barracks on both sides of the urn city, the city guards upstairs did not suspect it.

"Lord Zhu, wait a minute!"

In a few moments, the gates were opened. When the last city gate opened, Zhu Mingzhong's eyes narrowed into slits, and at the moment when the city gate opened, he immediately whipped the horse with his horsewhip, and roared while riding the horse forward.

"Kill ......"

The change was so quick that it was completely beyond everyone's expectations, and before even the young flag man in the city gate could react, the galloping war horse swept past him, and at the same time as the horse swept by, a silver light swept in front of his eyes, and with the gallop of horsepower, the blade of the knife easily cut his neck when it crossed his shoulder.

“……”

Before the scream could be uttered, his head rolled to the ground.

"Kill ......"

Wang Dahu and others, who rushed forward on horseback, rushed forward with a howl, and more than 200 cavalry rushed towards the outside of the urn city with Zhu Mingzhong, compared to Tongji Gate, this last city gate did not have a jack gate, and it was precisely because of this that Zhu Mingzhong would rush towards the city at the moment when the city gate was opened.

The cavalry who rushed into the city did not rush to the city, but immediately dispersed to both sides after rushing out of the urn city, along the horse road on both sides of the urn city, all the way to the city wall, those young men and women who were originally glad that the reinforcements had arrived, until the sound of horses' hooves trampling on the city bricks, still did not react, until the horse's horse came to rush in front of them, and the knife slashed at their heads. Only then did they know what had happened.

It's not reinforcements, it's enemy troops!

"Quick, all go up, the Han people have seized the city gate, and we all have to die!"

The Qing army with knives immediately pushed the women around him, and let those women with knives and guns go up, these women who had lost their men in Zhenjiang, after a battle, would be completely based on women's instinct to protect their families.

"The Han people are here, they have to kill your whole family......"

When people are in a desperate situation, I don't know what kind of courage they will burst out, those women hold their knives and guns to kill the cavalry rushing to the city, their faces are full of despair, their hands are holding the knives and guns left by the men, just like a mantis arm as a car towards the cavalry rushing to the city, this will have already rushed to the front Wang Dahu held a spear and stabbed at the woman who killed, although it was a woman who was killed, but he did not see the slightest softness, the spear easily pierced the woman's body, in the woman's screams, With a flick of his arm, he threw the woman to the city with the help of his horse, and then continued to charge with his spear.

Compared with these tiger-like cavalry, the resistance of those women and children in the city is almost not worth mentioning, they are constantly beheaded on the horse, and the horse's hooves continue to trample on the corpse, crushing the head, and trampling the corpse into flesh, the women who have never experienced such a scene were frightened, and the people behind kept retreating, just when they were approached to the position of the city gate tower, Zhu Mingzhong, who saw that the overall situation had been decided, immediately shouted at the city.

"Siege, Release, Forward Siege ......"
