Liu Kui's head was sweating, the leader of the Mongolian soldiers just now let out a miserable scream twice before he died, it should have spread far away in the night, if there were Mongolian soldiers coming to check the post, it would be troublesome, these three wounded soldiers were not the opponents of the murderous Mongolian soldiers at all.

Li Xing was greeted by soldiers outside the city and had already led a large army to the city, but the city gate was still closed.

"With a knife." Liu Kui went out, "You and I will cut the chains with knives first, you, go and open the city gate first, and then come back to help us." ”

"How can such a thick chain be cut?" The soldier had little strength, and he trembled with fear when he had assassinated the leader of the Mongol soldiers.

"There is no way, we must cut it off, otherwise, when the Mongol soldiers come, we will die without a place to bury." Li Xing interrupted him, "Don't be long-winded, hurry up, the Mongols are coming." ”

The soldier had no choice but to take turns with Li Xing to use the scimitar in his hand to cut at the chain of the drawbridge.

"Ding Ling, be long!" In the quiet midnight, the sonorous sound of the iron colliding came far away, and Li Xing under the city could hear it clearly.

"Hurry, force." Liu Kui was so anxious that he was about to cry, he was already sweating like rain, who made such a thick iron chain? He didn't know if his wound had burst or not, he didn't have time to touch the bandage or even think about his wound.

"Click...... Oh! ”

A clear sound came from Liu Kui's knife, and the scimitar suddenly had nowhere to be forced, and Liu Kui stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

Liu Kui was overjoyed: "It's broken." "He had no idea what new injuries the fall would cause to his body.

But there was still one chain, and the edge of their knife was either curled or notched.

"Change the knife, quick!" Liu Kui urged the soldier.

The sound of "Ding Zero, Dangchang" once again broke the silence of the night.

Human endurance is limited, and their strength disappears little by little.

Fortunately, the soldier who had gone to open the gate had returned, and he picked up his scimitar on the ground and joined the two men who had cut the chains.

There was a shouting and scolding from the inner city, mixed with the "click" of horses' hooves on the ground.

Liu Kui was shocked: "It's not good, the Mongols are coming, cut it quickly." ”

If the Mongol soldiers felt the head of the city, the three of them did not need the Mongols to do it, and the trampling of the Mongols' horses' hooves alone could make them lose their souls for three thousand miles.

All three understood that they had only one way out now, and that was to quickly cut the drawbridge and let the soldiers of the First Brigade outside the city enter the city. To the north of Qiantun, they saw with their own eyes that more than 500 Jiannu and Mongol soldiers had fallen under the flintlock pistols of the soldiers of the First Brigade, and there were only 100 Mongol soldiers in Ningyuan City, which was no match for the First Brigade at all.

The three of them didn't care about the wounds on their bodies, and the sound of the Mongols' horses' hooves became clearer and clearer.

"Click...... Oh! ”

Finally, the voice they had been longing for was heard.

This "click...... Oh", more than "a long drought and a sweet rain", than "a candle night in the cave house" that they look forward to.

The second iron chain broke, and the drawbridge also fell rapidly, and with a "bang", the drawbridge was dripping heavily on the ground, and the hearts of the three people also fell back to their chests from their throats.

All three of them were soaked, and the moment the chains broke, they collapsed on the ground, unable to stand up again.

The soldiers of the First Army had long since dismounted and waited to enter the city. With a flintlock pistol on his horse, he could neither aim nor reload ammunition.

"Hurry up, take both sides of the gates." Li Xing saw that the drawbridge had fallen, and shouted loudly to the soldiers.

The soldiers of the 1st Brigade flooded over the drawbridge and poured into the city gates.

Traces of the Mongols have already been seen.

After the Ming soldiers crossed the city gate, they quickly seized the city head on both sides and gave way to the passage in the middle.

"Fan-shaped formation." Li Xing only had time to say this, and the figure of the Mongol had already faintly appeared in the soldier's sight.

More than 100 soldiers from a company on the left and right were aiming with their guns, and the rest of the soldiers were constantly joining behind them.

"Shoot." In the dark, Li Xing could not accurately judge whether the Mongols had entered the firing range, so he had to give the order to shoot first.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

……

"Buden, Buden."

The Mongol soldiers who rushed to the front fell from their horses, and the Mongol advance was halted. But their bows and arrows also fired, and several soldiers in the front row fell to the ground screaming, and the flintlock pistols were thrown aside.

The soldiers who were constantly joining the back row opened fire, and although they could not see the exact position of the Mongols, the bullets from the flintlock pistols formed a dense network of fire in front of them.

More Mongols fell from their horses, and more flintlock musketeers joined the ranks of the shots.

There were fewer and fewer bows and arrows falling in front of the flintlock musketeers, and more and more ownerless horses wailed in despair at the sound of flintlock bullets exploding and the light of fire.

Hu Wu'er Cha was shot twice in the chest, he shook and planted off the horse, and the soldiers who followed him shouted anxiously: "Oh no, Ezhen fell off the horse......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he planted his horse, bleeding from his chest.

"Don't stop, keep shooting, suppress the Mongols' bows and arrows." Li Xing had already arrived at the gate of the city, standing behind the gunman, and now that the casualties of the Mongols were unknown, he did not dare to be careless.

The flintlock muskeviers fired another round, and no more bows and arrows came from front of them.

Could it be that the Mongols were dead and wounded? Li Xing knew that there was only one dissatisfied Mongolian Niulu in the city, and more than 100 Mongolian soldiers. Just now, the Mongol arrows hit the gunners, indicating that they had entered the range of the flintlock guns, and it was not impossible that so many bullets were fired densely and the Mongols died.

"Stop shooting." Li Xing wanted to judge the situation of the Mongols.

The north gate was darkened, darker than before.

There was no fire, and the frightened Mongol horses had stopped galloping, perhaps tired, and were slowly swinging between the First Brigade and the Mongol soldiers, and several of the horses were pricking up their ears to listen to the Mongol soldiers behind them moaning on the ground, and perhaps among the moaning soldiers was its owner.

"Light the torches and surround the Mongols." Li Xing gave the order again. There was no torch just now, firstly, there was no time at all, and secondly, he did not want to be the target of the Mongolian archers, and now, Li Xing was ready to clean up the battlefield.

The soldiers, with torches in one hand and sabers in the other, slowly advanced from both sides, outflanking the Mongol soldiers in a roundabout way.

It is true that there were Mongol soldiers still alive, but instead of sitting on horseback, they were rolling on the ground, uttering all sorts of incomprehensible screams and moans.

"Cut off their heads."

The soldiers went to harvest the heads of the Mongol soldiers in groups, and Li Xing went to visit Liu Kui and the three who were still lying at the head of the city: "Liu Kui, you have worked hard, your merits, we will not forget jì, and the promise of the military seat is still valid." ”

"Thank you, Traveler." Liu Kui struggled, wanting to kowtow to thank him, but his body kept calling.

"Liu Kui, don't be polite, take a good rest first."

The matter of harvesting the heads of the Mongols was soon over, and the soldiers came to report to Li Xing: "There are seventy-eight heads of the Mongols in the brigade. ”

"Oh? So little? Less than a hundred. Li Xing replied casually, "The Mongols are really getting more and more unpopular. ”

Liu Kui was shocked when he heard this: "Brigade, each of the Mongols has more than a hundred people, how can there be only seventy-eight heads?" "He usually lives in Ningyuan, mingles with Jiannu and the Mongols, and is very familiar with the situation of the Mongols.

"Did any of the Mongols escape? Or did they not come at all? Li Xing said to himself, "No matter what the situation is, we will dig out the Mongols in the city." ”

"Brigade, Ningyuan City is so big, twenty or thirty Mongolians, how to find it?" The pro-soldiers were reminding Li Xing.

"We must find out, otherwise, they may be hiding in the shadows and will give us an arrow at any moment." Li Xing looked in the direction the Mongols were coming from, and he suddenly understood: "Liu Kui, do you know where the Mongols' military camp is?" ”

"Go back to the brigade, the little one knows."

"Liu Kui, the Mongols have not been completely wiped out, and the war is not over yet, please take my soldiers to the Mongol barracks to search for it."

"Yes, Brigade." Liu Kui's body was overdrawn and had not yet recovered, but the First Brigade had a large number of horses, and now more than thirty Mongol war horses had been captured, and he slowly climbed on horseback with the support of the soldiers of the First Brigade.

Li Xing climbed out of two companies, that is, more than 200 soldiers, and followed Liu Kui to clear the Mongol barracks.

After Liu Kui left, Liu Kui divided the rest of the soldiers into fifteen companies, and under the leadership of their respective company commanders, they went to seize the remaining three city gates, and searched for the remnants of Jiannu and Mongols in the city.

At dawn, thirty-two more Mongol soldiers were beheaded, and at the same time, 14 Jiannu and their families who remained in the city were beheaded, and even the family members of Jiannu Gyala Ezhen Bakshi in the city were all beheaded by the soldiers.

After dawn, the work of clearing the Jiannu and Mongols in the city was basically over.

In the name of the Ming court, the First Brigade posted notices everywhere in the city to appease the Han people in the city, and the four city gates were taken over by the First Brigade, and all the people were temporarily not allowed to enter and exit, but martial law was not implemented on the streets.

The people who served and farmed for Jiannu in Ningyuan City were all Han Chinese, with a total of more than 3,000 households and a population of about 20,000.

Li Xing was not interested in these government affairs, so he handed them over to Yue Jingsheng, a staff officer in the army, to take care of them, and Liu Kui assisted them.

Li Xing found a craftsman and re-welded the iron chain of the north city gate to prevent Jiannu's reinforcements from attacking Ningyuan.

Yue Tuo, the owner of the Red Flag Banner in Guangning, did not know that Ningyuan City had changed hands.

When Wu Lie sent someone to report to him, he only said that there was a Niu Lu in Ningyuan who had lost his trace, and according to his judgment, this Niu Lu might have been annihilated by the Ming army, and his basis was that a Mongolian Niu Lu was annihilated by the Ming army in Qiantun, and only four soldiers were left to flee back to Ningyuan.

After Yue Tuo received Wu Lie's report, his brows never stretched. Thinking of Sun Chengzong's re-passing of Jiliao, he repeatedly sent the Ming army out of Qiantun to attack the soldiers of the small Dajin Kingdom, and he also estimated that this missing Niu Lu was more auspicious.

This is a whole cow record, if it is completely eaten by Sun Chengzong, then how many people does Sun Chengzong have to come out of Qiantun? Could it be that the Ming army is ready to fight back?

Yue Tuo couldn't figure out Sun Chengzong's thoughts, so he would not take the initiative to attack Shanhaiguan, but accept Huang Taiji's construction and wait for Sun Chengzong to die of old age, or be transferred out of Shanhaiguan.

But Sun Chengzong ate his whole cow record, Yue Tuo couldn't swallow this breath no matter what, even if he endured it, other banner owners would laugh at him, and his subordinates would look down on him.

He instructed the Jinzhou garrison Sukhbaru to immediately reinforce Ningyuan.

On the afternoon of Li Xing's attack on Ningyuan, Sukhbaru's reinforcements arrived in Ningyuan.
