At this time, the deflection pass has reached the critical moment of being attacked.

In the face of the continuous rush of killing, whether it is with bows and crossbows, or with wood and stones, even with artillery bombardment, it is impossible to stop the enemy's footsteps. They crossed the moat and came to the bottom of the city, constantly harassing the top with bows and arrows, while more people tried to dig through and even break down the wall that blocked their way.

Under this reckless destruction and temptation, the wall, which already had many loopholes, was finally dug up several gaps by them. When they saw this scene, the soldiers of the Ming army above were even more frightened, and they also threw all the weapons that could attack the enemy below as if they were crazy, in order to temporarily retreat from the enemy.

Not to mention, this kind of attack has some effect after all, seeing that the Ming army above is also desperate, knowing that it is only a matter of time to break through, the Mongolian people began to retreat with their lives, and finally did not let them dig up the city wall.

However, now that the flaws in the fortress were so obvious in front of the enemy army, perhaps when the enemy launched the next attack, there would be a situation that no one wanted to see, which made the mood of the defenders at the head of the city extremely panicked, and the morale of the defenders at the head of the city was also at a minimum.

Zhengde's face turned pale in the midst of it: "What...... How so? Am I still misestimating the situation? The tone was already full of self-reproach.

Yang Chen watched from the sidelines, and he didn't know how to persuade for a while. Because in his opinion, Zhengde did make a wrong judgment this time, and underestimated the determination of the Mongolian people to win the bias pass, so that everyone fell into such a desperate situation.

However, he is the emperor after all, even if he is a courtier, it is not easy to point it out directly, so he can only comfort: "Your Majesty does not have to blame yourself, there is no endless road, until the last moment, we always have a chance to turn defeat into victory." ”

"What else can be done, now the wall is almost unsupportable, as long as they attack again, it will be the time to break the city. I will become a laughing stock for the ages! Unless the reinforcements can suddenly kill behind the Tartars at this time, even the reinforcements from the south will not be able to save this deviation! As he spoke, he sighed again.

And this time, Yang Chen didn't say anything more, which made Zhengde feel bad in his heart, and said that you have comforted so much, can't you say a few more words? But immediately, he found that Yang Chen's gaze was staring straight ahead, his face full of disbelief. This made him look into the distance curiously, and then he shouted excitedly: "Reinforcements, they are really attacking from behind the Tartars!" ”

At the same time, many other people in the city also saw the change in the rear of the Mongol camp, and several groups of cavalry were advancing forward, and then the fire continued to rise from all over the camp. This is enough to show that they are friends and not enemies, and the reinforcements that they have been waiting for for a long time have finally arrived at this critical juncture, and they have appeared where they should have appeared most - the rear army with the weakest Mongolian strength.

"Brothers, behind us are the people of the Partial Pass, our fathers and fellow villagers! Behind it, there is the country of my Ming Dynasty, which is the home we are guarding wholeheartedly! Now that reinforcements have arrived, as long as we can withstand the enemy's onslaught, victory will be ours! Seeing this, Lei Ming hurriedly made a statement to boost the morale of the army.

I don't know if it was the sudden appearance of reinforcements that made everyone regain the courage to fight, or his words had an effect, anyway, at this time, the original decadent appearance of the defenders at the head of the city has been swept away, and everyone's eyes showed a resolute look, and the hands holding the weapons became tighter, staring at the front with their eyes dead, and shouting in their mouths: "Swear to guard the head pass!" Defend my Great Wall border defense! ”

The shout spread quickly, echoing above the city wall of the Partial Pass, and even spreading far away, spreading towards the winding and continuous Great Wall. Seeing this scene and hearing this, Zhengde was even more moved: "Well said, I believe that we will win this battle!" ”

But even so, the Mongols' offensive against the Partial Pass is still not slowing down. With a terrible howl, they pounced again. Although they paid a lot of price on the way because of the continuous resistance of the Ming army, they still let their brigade kill the city. The same crisis had reappeared, and the gap had widened, and the people at the head of the city could already feel the crumbling feeling.

Even if the Ming army continued to smash all kinds of arrows, wood and stones like rain and hail, the enemy would not retreat......

Just when everyone was a little desperate and thought that the city was about to fall, a low horn suddenly sounded from the camp of the Mengda people. The sound of this horn was completely different from the passionate sound urging the soldiers and horses to rush and kill just now, and it was especially desolate.

And after hearing this sound, the Mongolian people who were still digging desperately were all stunned, and their eyes showed a look of disbelief. Seeing that the partial pass is about to be breached, why does the rear have to recall the army?

When someone turned his head to look back, his face quickly changed, and he shouted loudly: "There is a Ming army sneak attack on our camp!" There was horror in his voice.

With this shout, all the Mongolian people suddenly realized that the matter was far more complicated than they thought. Now that the Chinese army camp is under attack by the Ming army, if something goes wrong with the Great Khan, then even if this battle can break through the deviation pass, it will only be himself who will lose in the end.

So, after some hesitation, the Mongolian army, which was about to capture the Bitou Pass, could only turn around and rush towards their own Chinese army camp. At this time, they were completely red-eyed, and vowed to annihilate all the enemy troops who had ruined their good deeds.

The Ming army at the head of the city breathed a long sigh of relief, and the ups and downs of the near-death made everyone's hearts hang in their throats, and many people even had to lean against the wall to prevent themselves from falling to the ground because of their weak legs.

The crisis was temporarily lifted, so that Zhengde's whole person also became energetic and sober, I saw him squint at the Mengda camp in front of him, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly walked to Lei Ming: "Mr. Lei Qian, the best defense at this time is to attack." Hurry up and get the defenders ready and go out with me! ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, and don't look at when this is!" Lei Ming was a little dazed because of excessive nervousness, and when he heard that someone suggested going out of the city to kill the enemy, his first reaction was to reprimand him severely. But as soon as the words came out, he suddenly realized that it was the current day who said this, which made him turn pale with fright, and immediately knelt down, kowtowed and confessed his mistake: "Your Majesty forgives me, the minister doesn't know that it is you, and I offended Your Majesty......"

"It's okay, I just need you to quickly order the troops and cooperate with the reinforcements to flank the Tartars before and after, so that we will be able to win this battle!" Zhengde waved his hand disappreciatively and continued to put forward his own suggestions.

But even if it was the emperor's will, Lei Ming couldn't comply: "Your Majesty, I only have less than 3,000 soldiers and horses in the Biaotou Pass, and now I have nearly half of the casualties, and I can only use more than 1,000 people." And there are tens of thousands of Tartars, even if they are killed, I am afraid that it will not help. It is better to let the army rest here and recuperate their spirits. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about? Now there is not much difference between the side of the head pass and the broken city, once the Tartars have pacified the rear reinforcements, and then turn around and kill, can they hold on to this point alone? It's better to give it a go and take the initiative with the reinforcements! Zhengde also said with a serious expression.

At this moment, Yang Chen felt that there was some truth in what the emperor said. At this point, it has reached the point of exhaustion, and it should be the best choice.

Ding Yueqian, who was on the side, also said after groaning: "Lao Lei, although Your Majesty's plan is risky, it is the only way for us to turn defeat into victory and break this deadlock." And I don't think those Tartars will be able to take the initiative to send troops, and then we will be able to play a surprise role. ”

"But ......" Lei Ming still hesitated, after all, he was the guard of this partial pass, and the first place in his heart was naturally to keep the city from losing.

When Zhengde saw it, he immediately straightened his face: "This is my holy decree!" Lei Ming received the order, I ordered you to quickly order the soldiers who can still fight in the pass, and go out of the pass with me to kill the enemy! ”

"Obey the order!" In the face of the irresistible holy decree, Lei Ming could only give in after all, knelt down to accept the order, and then turned around to make corresponding arrangements.

And at this time, Yang Chen, Ding Yueqian, and the guards around him suddenly woke up, the emperor was going to personally lead people to fight, which was absolutely unacceptable. So, a group of people hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade: "Your Majesty, just let the ministers lead the defenders to fight and break the enemy." You are a man of ten thousand gold, and it is a dereliction of duty to appear in the city, and you must not venture out of the city again. ”

"I have decided that this time I will personally compete with the Tartars, and let them know that my Ming Dynasty has descendants after Taizu Taizong who can defend these thousands of miles!" Zhengde's eyes were full of solemnity, and he couldn't see the stubborn appearance of the past, which made the guards feel that the Son of Heaven seemed to be a different person, and the pressure on them became greater.

After suppressing everyone in momentum, Zhengde slowed down his tone and said: "Look at the other side, it is the little prince of the Great Khan of the Tartars, Boyan Mengke, who personally led the army to attack. As the lord of the Mongolian steppe, he can risk his life, can I, the great tomorrow, only hide and dare not fight head-on? If this spreads, won't it make the world laugh at me for being cowardly and afraid of war? I have made up my mind, so you don't need to persuade you anymore! ”

If there is even one civil official here, there will be people who will stand up and continue to stop it, and they will not give up until the goal is achieved. However, even Yang Chen was actually more of a military attaché, so after facing the emperor's words, everyone couldn't say anything to stop him from fighting in person.

At this time, Lei Ming had already gathered all the men and horses of Shang Ke to fight, just waiting for an order, and the city was opened!
