As for Tang Tong, who was responsible for guarding the north gate, he was forced to have no way out at this time, so he had to fight to the death to fight for a future for himself, at least in order to survive, he also had to hold Tongzhou City, so he got up early on the third day, and kicked the idea of escaping into the toilet, hung his armor neatly, carried a big knife, personally climbed the city gate tower, and began to command his subordinates to resist the attack of Jiannu.

On the contrary, one or two soldiers bravely kill the enemy for the soldiers, but once the main general makes up his mind to play with his life, the impact on the soldiers will be great, once Tang Tong once he has made up his mind, he really doesn't want to say, he really has a bit of a general demeanor as a general officer, running back and forth in the city with his family, commanding the soldiers to counterattack the siege of the Jiannu army, and personally beheaded a thousand generals who left the place of defense without authorization. The head of this thousand general people was hung on the city gate tower to set an example.

And at noon, when Jiannu's attack was at its tightest, even Tang Tong personally raised his knife into battle, blocked a section of battlements, and used his big knife to cut down several Jiannu soldiers who attacked the city wall from the hook ladder, and even grabbed the gunner's torch and personally killed the Jiannu army under the city, so that the remnants of the defeated generals under his command couldn't help but boost their morale, and they followed Tang Tong on the city wall to fight to the death with the Jiannu army one by one.

This situation even Zhang Erzhong did not expect, Zhang Erzhong also had the heart of death, seeing that the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the city had declined greatly in two days, this Tongzhou City was about to be lost, Zhang Erzhong was even ready to kill Shengren when the city of Tongzhou was broken, and used his life to give him a loyal name, and he was martyred in the city, but on this day he saw that the soldiers and civilians in the city were all excited again, and fought to the death with Jiannu, so he didn't know why he asked why, As a result, one of his sons secretly told Zhang Erzhong about the rumors about the Dazhong Army, and after Zhang Erzhong heard it, his heart could be described as full of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty!

During this period of his operation in Tongzhou, he recruited troops and bought horses, and prepared all kinds of guards, it turned out that his preparation was originally made for the Dazhong Army, but he didn't want to run to the Jiannu army first, seeing that his table of dishes was about to be eaten by Jiannu, but he didn't think that the Dazhong Army had become their savior, which was really a huge irony, so that Zhang Erzhong couldn't cry or laugh, and after staying for a long time, Zhang Erzhong sighed and said to his son: "That's it!" If this torture thief can save tens of thousands of lives in the whole city of Tongzhou, so that they will not become ghosts under the sword of Jiannu, then this Tongzhou city will be given to them! They have finally accumulated virtue! Although Xiao Xingtian is a thief chieftain, this person has the word "people" in his heart, no wonder he can force my Daming to such a point! Go for yall! Go and defend the city, no matter what, you can't cheapen Tongzhou City to the Jiannu army! ”

So there was the desperate resistance of the third day of Tongzhou City, Abatai and Haoge Governor were storming for a whole day, but it can be said that they did not build an inch, but in vain they lost hundreds of corpses of Jiannu soldiers under Tongzhou City, seeing that it was getting late, and there was no chance to fight again, so Abatai and Haoge discussed it, and had to order to take back the soldiers and horses besieging the city, and ordered all the troops under his command to camp outside the city to rest, and then attack Tongzhou City after dawn on the fourth day.

Tongzhou for three consecutive days of cannons, far into the capital, under the will of Chongzhen, the whole city is under martial law, the defenders in the city are all on guard, ready to meet the siege of the Jiannu army at any time, hundreds of thousands of residents in the city can be said to be panicked, all listen to the faint rumbling cannon sound from the direction of Tongzhou in the east of the city, each is like a frightened bird does not know what to do.

Chongzhen now understands better than anyone that his Ming Dynasty has reached the last moment, whether it is the Dazhong Army or the Jiannu Army, he can no longer keep the foundation left by his ancestors, and now look at it, Jingshi has become a lonely city, although he is still known as the Ming Emperor, but his holy decree can no longer get out of the capital, originally the Jiannu Army since Miyun entered the Kou, only captured Miyun, Huairou, Shunyi and other places, but the garrison of Changping Prefecture actually did not see the Jiannu army appear in Changping City, He first messed up, hula ran most of the time, there were large and small works in the city, and he actually took the opportunity to start an incident, recruited a group of soldiers and civilians, announced that the city had surrendered to the Great Middle Dynasty, and closed the city gate, grabbed the officials in the city, and took over the defense of Changping City by himself.

So at this time, Zhu Youzhen has completely left only his capital still under his control, and the surrounding state capitals and counties have basically fallen into the hands of the Dazhong Army, either the official announced the surrender of the city and switched to the Dazhong Dynasty, or he abandoned the city and fled, nowhere to be found, and was gathered by the people of the Dazhong Dynasty to take over the city, Zhu Youzhen was in the palace, although the last time he issued an order, ordering the world's soldiers and horses to come to the aid and enter the Beijing division to defend him, but his holy decree was not even sent out of the capital at all, Because the person who gave the decree no longer knows where to send it.

Even at this time, the diligent Zhu Youzhen had to go to the early dynasty, but unfortunately now his early dynasty, the officials who came to participate in the early dynasty, but there are not a few, Zhu Youzhen was above the court, looking down at the empty hall, and couldn't help but be angry, and ordered the chamberlain to pass on those ministers to the court, but after the ministers went out of the palace to announce the decree, there were still not many ministers who came to participate in his early dynasty, but let the ministers bring back a lot of messy excuses, in short, this early dynasty for these ministers, It's already an irrelevant thing, so what can you do if you don't participate? It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to stay at home for a few more days and accompany your family, besides, now that the Holy Lord Zhu Youzhen is in a bad mood and goes to participate in the early dynasty, I can't guarantee who he wants to kill! So it's safer to stay at home, and even some eunuchs who go out to deliver the decree don't come back as soon as they leave the palace, and they don't know where to hide.

Zhu Youzhen's face was pale, looking at the empty hall, recalling that after he ascended the throne in his early years, he took charge of the power of the court after killing Wei Zhongxian.

So Zhu Youzhen waved his hand like ashes, stood up and staggered back into the harem, no longer interested in dealing with any political affairs! Anyway, it's already like this, love what's the matter!

The unexpectedly fierce resistance of Tongzhou City made Abatai's strong attack on the third day finally return again, and he failed to capture Tongzhou City as he wished, which couldn't help but make Abatai very discouraged, and after returning to the camp, he gritted his teeth and swore that if he did not take Tongzhou City, he would never give up, as long as he let him take Tongzhou City, he would let these damn Han barbarians know the consequences of his Abatai lord's anger, and he would kill all the men in the city, and see if anyone would dare to resist his army so desperately in the future.

But Hauge seemed to sense something not quite right from this day's fighting, and after returning to the camp in the evening, he sat down and thought about it carefully, combined with the sentry cavalry who had been losing contact with each other for the past two days, and always felt that this time things seemed a little strange.

Now if it is late today, according to the normal situation, the sentry horses scattered out, they will send people back to restore their lives, whether they meet the enemy or not, they must return a letter, let them know that nothing serious happened, but today's situation is very abnormal, at this time, only a small number of sentry horses came back to resume their lives, and many of the sentry horses sent out did not have any news until late in the evening, so Hauge went straight to Abatai's big tent, and told Abatai about this abnormal thing.

Abatai then also realized that things seemed to be a little beyond his expectations, as they are the generals who have been marching and fighting outside all the year round, who does not know the importance of the sentry cavalry to them, this is not outside the pass, it is their own territory, they come and go freely, now they are in the pass, and it is not far from the capital of Daming, if you spread your feet, it will not take an hour to touch the wall of the Ming Jingshi, and there are Han barbarians who hate them everywhere, which can be said to be a place of danger.

So the importance of Sentinel Riders to them is self-evident! Now there are a lot of sentry riders who suddenly have a lot of non-recovery situations, this is not normal, even if there are occasionally a few sentry riders outside on a safari, playing with women and having fun, and drinking too much, but it is impossible for so many sentry riders to drink at the same time!

Therefore, combined with the fact that the sentry riders who fled back said that they had encountered a lot of scouts from the large Chinese army, it fully shows that things may not be as simple as they thought.

As a veteran who has been fighting with his father's wild boar skin since he was a child, how can he not know that there must be a problem here? But his bigger problem at the moment was the large number of missing sentinels, so that he could only grasp the situation within a dozen miles of the surrounding area, and farther away, he could not know what would happen in their vicinity.

It's like they're suddenly blind, in a fog where they can't see what's going on around them, and it's a very bad thing, and if they're not careful, they can fail miserably.

After listening to Hauge's words, Abatai immediately realized that something was not going well, so he immediately ordered more sentries to be sent overnight to probe around, especially in the southeast, either to find out the whereabouts of the missing sentinels or to find out what was going on in the surrounding area.

After receiving the order, these Jiannu soldiers immediately mounted their horses in groups, rushed out of the camp in the night, disappeared into the darkness, and searched in all directions.
