When Lin Lie heard the sound of killing from the east gate at the west gate, the battle here had entered an extremely fierce situation, but it did not happen outside the east gate, but inside the east gate, in the urn city!

A team of 3,000 Mongols was trapped in this small urn city, and they couldn't exert their combat power at all, so they were smashed by the arrows and stones and trees that kept falling overhead, and they fell down screaming, and in just a few moments, no less than hundreds of people fell in pools of blood, and the number of dead Mongols continued to increase.

What made these Mongolian people even more alarmed was that now the arrows at the head of the city were falling more and more intensively, and the east gate behind them was already closed, but they couldn't even escape from the predicament of being beaten passively, so they could only dodge in vain, and shoot up with the bow and arrow in their hands, but because of the angle, they couldn't cause much damage to the defenders in the city.

The leader of this army, Tulagu, continued to roar because of anger, and ordered his Mongolian warriors to break the city, but the effect of these words was limited, because at this time, one by one clay pots had been smashed from above, and a lot of oil splashed out, and then the torches and rockets fell, and when the fire burst out, the urn city immediately turned into a flaming hell, and everyone howled miserably in it, dodging, and was no longer able to launch any attack on the city, and these thousands of Mongolian people had completely become the prey and live target of the Ming army at the head of the city.

Tulagu grabbed Shi Qingyan, whose face was pale and trembling, and roared at him: "Didn't you say that the defenders here are your old subordinates, as long as you come forward, they will open the door and sacrifice the city?" How did you become like this? Are you deliberately trying to harm us? ”

Shi Qingyan, who was already frightened by the change in front of him, became more and more panicked when he heard this roar, and could only subconsciously defend himself and shout: "I...... I don't know, they just said well, what the hell is wrong with this......"

When these enemies under the city were being beaten in disarray, Lu Jin, who was in charge of all this in the city, was coldly looking down at the enemies below. Although he didn't know if Shi Qingyan, a traitor, had died in this sudden attack, he believed that even if he could run back alive in the end, what awaited him would inevitably be the death penalty of the Meng.

But this was his own choice, and when he chose to betray the Ming Dynasty and attack Jizhou City for the Mongols, his fate had already been decided.

Just last night, when Lu Zhen and Lin Lie were talking about the consequences of Shi Qingyan falling into the hands of the Mongols, they mentioned a very critical issue - with their familiarity with Jizhou City, especially the relationship with the defenders, if he suddenly betrayed, I am afraid that the city will face a great threat.

In the end, at Lu Jin's suggestion, Lin Lie made a lot of moves, and the most important Dongcheng, Lu Zhen led Jinyiwei's brother to rush over. There, he immediately summoned the garrison Du Zhong.

This is a tall, fair-skinned man with a calm smile on his face. After hearing that Shi Qingyan had been captured by the Tartars before, he actually seemed very calm, just looked at Lu Zhen and asked, "Lord Lu came to tell the last general about this at this time, but was he worried that I, Du Zhong, would open the city and surrender to the Tartars for the sake of General Shi?" ”

"I heard that General Du has been the captain of Shi Qingyan's personal soldiers for many years, and he was promoted by him the year before last

Now in this position. Lu Jin didn't say that he wasn't worried, but just pointed out the close connection between the two sides.

Du Zhong smiled hardly: "Lord Lu, you also underestimate me Du Zhong." Although I am his old subordinate of Shi Qingyan, I am also a courtier of the Ming Dynasty and the defender of this Jizhou City. Even though he has some kindness to me, I can still tell which is more important and which is more important. ”

"Oh? In this way, it is impossible for General Du to open the city because of Shi Qingyan's persuasion? ”

"That's nature. Your Excellency, you may not know, but my father and brother both defended the city here, and it was because they lost their lives in the battle against the Tartars that I, Du Zhong, took over this position. I have a deep enmity with the Tartars, how can I surrender to them! As he spoke, his eyes met Lu Jin's burning eyes, without the slightest hint of evasion.

This made Lu Zhen suddenly awe-inspired, and immediately arched his hand and said: "It turns out that General Du is loyal and good, and this official has indeed offended before. That being the case, I can rest assured. But...... Many of the soldiers below were Shi Qingyan's subordinates, so they had to be careful. ”

"This ......" Du Zhong is not good at packing tickets now, what are the thousands of soldiers thinking in their hearts, and they can't control it.

Lu Zhen has a way: "In this way, you gather all the people, and I will say a few words to them first." ”

Du Zhong naturally did not object, and immediately ordered someone to send an order to gather all the defenders here at the east gate and listen to Lu Jin's lecture. After everyone arrived, Lu Jincai said loudly: "Everyone, this time the Tartars suddenly came with a large army, and the plan is very big. Once they are allowed to enter our Jizhou City, not only will you not escape death, but even the people in the city, your relatives and friends will also be slaughtered by them! And my Dongcheng is likely to be the key to their use of tricks to break the city, this official asks you, do you want to see the result of the destruction of all the lives in the city, and do you want to make yourself such a sinner for the ages? ”

"Nope! No! No! We will defend the city to the death, and we will never back down even if we fight even to the death of a soldier! In such an environment, it was naturally impossible for the soldiers to retreat, and they immediately spoke out loudly.

"What if the Tartars did not use a strong attack, but someone you know well, to induce you to open the city?" Lu Zhen asked another question, but this made the soldiers a little unsure of how to answer.

Fortunately, Du Zhong on the side was prepared, and when he heard this, he immediately shouted: "No matter who you are, as long as you dare to offend the east gate of Jizhou, you are our enemy, and you will kill it!" ”

Under its instigation, many soldiers also shouted, and then the sound spread, and thousands of people shouted the same words almost in unison: "No matter who dares to offend the east gate of Jizhou, it is our enemy, and it will be killed!" ”

"Good!" After listening to the soldiers shouting these words many times in unison, Lu Zhen laughed with satisfaction, he knew that after this reminder and brainwashing, as long as Shi Qingyan really dared to come to the east gate to call the door with his identity tomorrow, the result would inevitably be unexpected.

Shi Qingyan and the Mongolian people didn't know that the Ming army had already prepared, so the attack early this morning acted according to the plan set before, and came up with a trick of attacking the east and west.

The seemingly aggressive assault on Beicheng in front of the head was just to firmly attract the main force of the Ming army and Lin Lie, the main general, to this side. Then divide the way to storm the west gate, for

It is to create a false impression for the defenders of the city, thinking that their real target is Simon. But in fact, what the Mongols wanted to break through this time was the East Gate.

Of course, in fact, what they want to do is not to break through the east gate, but to open the east gate. After all, Shi Qingyan said conclusively before that he would definitely let the East Gate guards open the door according to his will, and as long as he could really open the East Gate and enter the city, this Jizhou City would completely fall into their hands.

In order not to provoke the attention of the Ming army in the north, they did not use too many men and horses this time, only about 3,000 people, and none of them rode horses. But these 3,000 men and horses are the most elite troops in this Warat army, even if they fight on foot, they are not something that the idle Ming army can resist. After all, even if they did successfully enter the city, they would still have to face the counterattack of the Ming army that reacted, and at that time, they would inevitably have a bitter battle in order to defend the city gate.

When the battle in Beicheng was in full swing, this team had quickly come to the front of Dongcheng under the leadership of Tulagu, an important general beside Yexian.

When he saw that there was indeed a Tartar army coming over, Du Zhong's face became more and more gloomy, and it seemed that what Lu Zhen said really made some sense. He did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and quickly prepared for defensive battles, vowing to keep this invading enemy out of the city gates.

However, the enemy army did not attack immediately, but sent several men to the city, and one of them, after standing still, shouted at the city: "Can Du Zhong be on top?" I am Shi Qingyan, and now I have returned to the army of Warat. Now that the first Taishi himself led the army to come, the destruction of Jizhou City is only an overnight thing, I see that we have a friendship before I come to persuade you, good birds choose trees to perch, or hurry up to open the city and surrender, don't make unnecessary resistance, so as to save your own life and your brothers! ”

Hearing this, Du Zhong became more and more annoyed, and subconsciously wanted to order someone to release arrows and shoot this traitor directly on the spot. Although he was once his boss, in the face of righteousness, Du Zhong would never follow any personal feelings, and those outside the city were still the great enemies who killed his father and brother.

But at this moment, Lu Zhen suddenly pressed his shoulder, and then whispered something in his ear.

Du Zhong was stunned for a moment, then he understood a little, was silent for a while, and adjusted his mood before saying, "It turned out to be General Shi...... There is some truth in what you say, but there are many of our relatives and friends and innocent people in this city, and what will happen to them if I open the gates? ”

Seeing that the other party did not turn his face, but asked such a question, Shi Qingyan was immediately overjoyed, and immediately said, "You can rest assured of this." Taishi had told me before that this time he led the army not to loot, let alone hurt the innocent. As long as you don't resist, I will keep the people of the city safe!" ”

What can your guarantee be worth? Du Zhong snorted in his heart with disdain, and then looked at Lu Jin, who was hiding behind him: "My lord, will you let them in?" ”

"As long as the arrangements are made in the urn city, you can put these tartars in." Lu Jin's eyes flashed with a strange light.

Du Zhong nodded, and then said, "Then you wait a minute." Then, at the sound of an order, the drawbridge that separated the inside and outside of the bridge slowly fell, and then the two gates were completely opened from the inside......
