At the head of Jinzhou City, the Qing army in the city looked at the Wei cavalry galloping into the camp in the distance with a serious expression, and the city was silent.

Previously, the Wei army left the camp and stopped attacking the city, and they could all guess that it was the reinforcements from the Guannei, and now that the Wei army has returned to the camp, it means that the Wei army has solved the reinforcements from the south.

Seeing this, the Qing soldiers couldn't help but be a little flustered, and there were two beliefs in the city they were holding, one was the rescue of reinforcements, and the other was that the Wei army was short of food and grass, and the soldiers retreated after running out of food.

The Wei army reclaimed the land outside the city, putting on a posture of not leaving, and long-term consumption, which shook the belief of the defenders in the city that they hoped that the Wei army would run out of food, and now the belief of holding on to and waiting for help was also shaken.

"Lord Hong, look!" The Qing general on the city wall suddenly exclaimed.

Hong Chengchou and the others hurriedly looked out, and saw the Wei army behind them, escorting a long list of Qing army prisoners to the city.

The Wei army, which had just entered the camp, also rushed out of nearly 100 horsemen, led by the cavalry with a horse lance to carry a human head, showing off their might under the city, and shouting: "He Luohui's head is here, please Hong Chengchou take a look!" ”

"He Luo's head is here!" Nearly 100 cavalry galloped back and forth under the city, howling loudly, and the defenders at the head of the city were silent.

At this time, nearly 1,000 captives were escorted to the city, and under the greeting of the Wei generals, the Qing army prisoners who were tied up in a string also began to shout, "The aid Jin army is gone, the Great Wei treats the prisoners preferentially, and the brothers in the city have surrendered." ”

The general of Jinzhou City is silent, and now it seems that the reinforcements are overwhelming, and the lonely city will eventually not be able to avoid the fate of breaking the city. It seems that Jinzhou City will not be able to hold on for long. Many Qing soldiers in the city couldn't help but regret it, they knew it was so, why not ......

Hong Chengchou heard the call from the city, and saw the head of the person who was lifted, his legs were weak, and he was held by Bai Guangen, "Lord Hong, the matter has come to this~"

Bai Guangen was originally a Ming general, but after the Qing Dynasty, he was promoted by Hong Chengchou, and he was Hong Chengchou's henchman, needless to say, Hong Chengchou also knew what he wanted to say.

Hong Chengchou squinted at Bai Guangen, Bai Guangen lowered his head, Hong Chengchou glanced at the city general Zuo again, remembered their expressions, and then put aside Bai Guangen's hand holding him, and said in a deep voice: "This official has a number!" ”

After speaking, Hong Chengchou walked down the city wall surrounded by the Eight Banners and returned to the government office.

At noon, in the barracks of the Qing army, Li Chengdong and Li Yuanyin's father and son gathered together, and there were henchmen guarding the door.

At this time, while the two were eating, Li Chengdong said: "I didn't let you do it before, but now the time has come." ”

Previously, Li Chengdong was not sure whether Jinzhou would be able to hold on, but now he is 100% sure that Jinzhou has no morale and will definitely not be able to hold it.

If his guess is correct, the Wei army will take advantage of the defenders' wavering hearts to launch an attack in the next few days, and if the city is broken, it will be too late.

Li Yuanyin said excitedly: "How is my father going to do it?" ”

This question stumped Li Chengdong, there were two Niu Lu 600 people in the city, and 4,500 people in the Han Army Banner, and there were only more than 1,000 people under him.

Now the Manchu Han flag is worthless, it is everywhere, but the flag soldiers are flag soldiers after all, and there is always a Qing Dynasty in my heart to win, and I can be the master, and the loyalty is still relatively high.

Originally, Li Chengdong was also going to be incorporated into the Han Banner, but during the Hedong War, he took the lead in slipping away, and Li Benshen, who was born in Xuzhou Town, surrendered to Wei in Taiyuan, which made Dol roll dissatisfied, so he stopped and incorporated a large number of soldiers and horses with worse combat power than Xuzhou Town into the Han Banner, and he did not have his share.

Is this question Li Chengdong, it is easy to kill Hong Chengchou, and he is hacked to death with a knife, but after killing, he was killed by the Eight Banners in the city, and it can't be done.

Li Chengdong would not do such a thing, and while he was pondering, the sergeant outside the door suddenly said loudly: "Junmen, Lord Hong sent someone to invite Junmen over." ”

Li Chengdong was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a little weak, but he still got up and answered, "Got it!" ”

In the Jinzhou Government Office, Hong Chengchou and the Manchurian general Bahana were discussing things, when the flag outside the door suddenly said: "Lord Hong, General Li has arrived." ”

When Hong Chengchou heard this, he hurriedly stood up, "Let him come in!" ”

Li Chengdong walked into the lobby, saw Hong Chengchou and Bahana, and hurriedly saluted, "See your lordship, Gushan!" ”

Hong Chengchou stepped forward, grabbed his hand, and said with emotion: "On the city, the official saw that all the soldiers were shaken, but only Li Jun's face was indignant, and he was very relieved in his heart!" ”

Li Chengdong was slightly stunned, in the morning in the city, Bai Guangen had the intention of persuading Hong Chengchou to surrender, and if Hong Chengchou surrendered, he would not be able to gain merit at all, so he showed anger on his face, and he didn't want Hong Chengchou to misunderstand.

"Lord Hong, I think Jinzhou City is strong, and I can still hold on to it!" Li Chengdong immediately stood up straight, puffed up his chest, and said with a straight face.

Hong Chengchou and Bahana glanced at each other, and then said, "This official really didn't misunderstand you. As he spoke, he sighed, "However, Jinzhou is indeed difficult to hold." ”

When Li Chengdong heard this, his heart was shocked, and he was a little anxious, Lord Hong couldn't surrender, he exclaimed: "Could it be~"

"This official and Gushan Ezhen have discussed for a day, and now the morale of the city has been greatly reduced, many generals have been shaken, and the Wei thieves will definitely take this opportunity to attack the city. At that time, the city will indeed be difficult to hold. Hong Chengchou waved his hand, "Therefore, this official and Gushan Ezhen decided to break through, but the Wei thieves outside the city were very well defended, so the official wanted to give General Li a task, and asked General Li to send someone to meet the Wei thief general, and said that the official was willing to surrender and lower the vigilance of the Wei thief, and we would break through the city in the second half of the night." ”

Li Chengdong was shocked, he didn't expect Hong Chengchou to act so decisively, and he was actually ready to break through tonight, but fortunately, it was not too late to know now.

After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, he looked at Li Chengdong and said, "Is General Li willing to take on this position?" ”

Li Chengdong was overjoyed and hesitated on his face, and when he saw that Hong Chengchou and Bahana were looking at him, he pondered for a moment before saluting: "Willing to serve the adult!" Humble and out of town! ”

After speaking, he was about to salute and leave, but Hong Chengchou stopped him, "The matter of leaving the city, let General Li's righteous son Li Yuanyin go in the evening, General Li reorganize his troops and horses, and prepare to be the vanguard!" This matter needs to be kept secret, don't tell Yuan Yin the truth. ”

Hong Chengchou judged that the Wei army might attack the city tomorrow, and most of the cities in the state of defenders could not hold it, so they must leave tonight.

When he went out of the city in the evening and asked to surrender, the Wei army would not be able to ask to enter the city today, and he would not be able to take over the city defense until tomorrow at the earliest, so that he would have a night's time.

The Wei army defeated the Qing army that rescued Jinzhou, which must be arrogant, and the aid outside Jinzhou was cut off, the army's heart was shaken, and the city would be broken.

In the evening, the Wei army received the news of the surrender in the city, and the defense of the various armies was naturally much worse than before, so they had the opportunity to break through.

Li Chengdong glanced at Hong Chengchou and didn't dare to say anything, "Humble and orderly!" ”

~~~~~~

Outside the city, in the camp of the Wei army, Li Dingguo and Hu Dawei were discussing the siege of the city tomorrow.

Hu Dawei said with a smile: "Today, with the head of He Luohui, I went around the city, and the city of Jinzhou was silent. I see that tomorrow the siege of the city will be able to fall with one drum. ”

As he was talking, Wang Yongqiang walked into the handsome tent and reported to Li Dingguoyu: "Governor Dadu, just released a person in the city, saying that he wants to surrender!" ”
