When Ta Long woke up, it was already the time of the lamp, and a day passed in Ta Long's anxiety, although he slept a good afternoon, but after waking up, Ta Long had to face the Ming army outside the city again.

He knew that the morale of his army was low, whether it was the soldiers or the generals, who were frightened by the firearms of the Ming army and the speed of their advance.

The generals did not dare to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army, especially General Ji Lunhai, whom Ta Long valued the most.

But if the passive defense continues for a long time, it is obviously a sign of weakness to the Ming army, and the morale will only be worse, not to mention that food is a problem, morale alone can make his army disintegrate.

Ta Long decided to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Ming army to divide troops in the north and west of the city, he decided to take the Ming army in the west of the city first, as long as the Ming army was defeated, even if the battle was a draw, the myth of the Ming army's invincibility could be shattered.

Mu Qiyuan didn't give him a chance to go out of the city for a decisive battle.

At the beginning of the day, when Ta Long was about to convene a meeting of the generals, the Ming army outside the west city had already set up sixty artillery pieces at a distance of a thousand steps from the city wall, and behind the artillery, 70,000 Ming troops were waiting for a battle, ready to enter the city at any time.

The defenders at the head of the city noticed that the situation was different and immediately flew to report Talon.

As soon as the heralds of Donghu left the city, the artillery and mountain artillery of the Ming army began to fire.

Countless flowering bullets bombarded the city walls and gates, and Taron felt the earth tremble in his camp, and without the soldiers to report back, Helon knew that the Ming army was going to attack the city.

I don't know how many rounds of shooting, maybe Mu Qiyuan felt that the war was about to end, and he could use the flowering bomb luxuriously, until the city wall collapsed with a hole of more than thirty zhang.

The Ming army cheered, and the soldiers were eager to try, but Mu Qiyuan was not in a hurry, there were still 100,000 Donghu soldiers in the city.

He asked the gunner to extend the flowering shell forward three hundred paces and fire four rounds.

There were no defenders on the city for a long time, and even if there were defenders alive, they would have taken refuge in the back of the city walls, or simply fled from the city, scrambling to report the latest battle situation to Talon.

Mu Qiyuan asked the gunners to move the artillery to the city, and strive to let the flowering shells fall to 800 steps inside the city, before the artillery was re-erected.

The flowering shells extended 500 and 800 paces into the city, and they were shelled in four rounds.

"Commander, there are not many flowering shells left, can you enter the city now?" Chen Zizhuang was also thrilled by the flowering shells of the Ming army, although he was a military commander, he had never seen so many artillery salvos, and there were dozens of mountain guns.

"Well, it should be almost, enter the city in order," Mu Qiyuan couldn't see the defenders at the head of the city for a long time, but a large number of defenders in the city should still be there, and he advised: "Be careful of the Donghu army in the city, the army should not be too scattered." ”

"Yes, Throne!" Chen Zizhuang agreed and ran away first, this time he won the opportunity to enter the city first, he had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.

The other armies were envious, but Mu Qiyuan sent out a new military order, "Liu Zhenyu! ”

"Here!" Liu Zhenyu stood beside Mu Qiyuan, he thought that he was waiting for the second opportunity to enter the city.

Mu Qiyuan didn't give Liu Zhenyu a chance to enter the city, "Ta Long may have to escape from the East City Gate, so don't enter the city, take the 55th Division, bypass the North City Gate, and insert it directly into the East City Gate along the city wall. ”

"Yes, Commander!" Although Liu Zhenyu preferred to enter the city, he did not dare to disobey Mu Qiyuan's military order, he waved his hand at the soldiers of the 55th Division and immediately rushed to the east city gate.

Liu Zhenyu was still a step slower.

When he rushed to the west city gate, he heard the report of the rout and knew that the west city gate had been lost, so he immediately returned to the barracks and retreated directly to the east city gate with his soldiers.

When Liu Zhenyu arrived at the East City Gate, there were already more than 30,000 Donghu soldiers out of the city, almost the main force arranged by Talong at the North City Gate.

It turned out that Ta Long estimated that the Ming army would chase after him, so while he fled, he gathered the only hundreds of elephant soldiers in the city to block the pursuing soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

Liu Zhenyu pursued lightly, did not carry heavy firearms, and faced the elephant soldiers of Donghu, he had no choice, and watched Ta Long and Ji Lunhai lead 30,000 Donghu soldiers to flee to the southeast.

However, Liu Zhenyu blocked the east city gate, and none of the 60,000 or 70,000 Donghu soldiers who remained in the city escaped.

In desperation, the remaining Donghu soldiers all knelt down and surrendered, and Mu Qiyuan received a total of more than 50,000 surrendered soldiers, because he knew that there would be no large-scale battles in the future, he did not kill, but temporarily detained these surrendered soldiers.

Lin Chengxiang was temporarily in charge of the liquidation of the city, and all the civilians who assisted the Donghu army were severely attacked by the Ming army, or shot to death, or thrown into prisoners of war.

Mu Qiyuan personally led his 19th Army to pursue the deserters in Donghu.

The elephant soldiers outside the eastern city had been wiped out or dispersed by rockets and mountain artillery, and Mu Qiyuan followed his steps and kept chasing down to the southeast.

Now Ta Long is panicked like a lost dog, and vast like a fish that has slipped through the net.

There were no pontoon bridges or boats to cross the Baigu River, so the Donghu soldiers had to swim across the river.

As soon as thousands of soldiers came ashore, and before even the defensive formation was deployed, a bang was heard, and the shouts of killing in front shook the sky, and the soldiers of the 30,000 cities poured out of the bushes.

The arrows were like flying locusts that covered the sky, carrying the infinite hatred and body heat of the soldiers of Ayutthaya, and shot mercilessly at the stunned Donghu soldiers.

"Fight back, quickly set up a defensive formation!" He yelled in a hurry on the other side, and he didn't know that cold sweat was running down to his chin.

But the battlefield was too noisy, and their voices couldn't cross the Baigu River at all.

The Donghu soldiers who were wading across the river were so frightened that they could only dance in the water, and they no longer dared to swim to the opposite bank, and the thousands of soldiers who came ashore had already suffered more than half of the casualties before they woke up, and the soldiers who could still stand were less than 2,000.

The 2,000 Donghu soldiers began to counterattack, but when they crossed the river just now, they lost more than half of their swords, guns and arrows, and they had no strength to fight back.

After a brief period of fear, the soldiers of Ayutthaya were followed by another rain of arrows.

The huge numerical superiority completely suppressed the Donghu soldiers, and the Ayutthaya army pursued the victory to the river embankment, forcing the remaining hundreds of Donghu soldiers back to the Baigu River.

The soldiers of Ayutthaya fired arrows into the river while harvesting the wounded soldiers of Toungoo on the shore.

He was shocked, why did the soldiers on the opposite side have such combat effectiveness? However, he didn't have time to look for this answer now, he knew that hundreds of elephant soldiers could only block the Ming army for a while, and after cleaning up the ancient city of Bai, the Ming army would pursue it very openly, and he didn't believe that the Donghu army in the city could hold back the main force of the Ming army.

At that time, the Donghu army would face a two-sided attack from the Ming army and the Ayutthaya army, and the opponent still had a huge numerical advantage.

"Brothers, crossing the river, the only way ahead is our only way to survive!" He was red-eyed, and in order to boost morale, he personally jumped into the Baigu River, and he wanted to take the lead.

Ji Lunhai hugged him, "Your Majesty, let me rush with my brothers!" He beckoned to his own soldiers, "Quick, cross the river with me." ”

The Donghu soldiers, who were floating in the river, began to swim to the opposite bank again.

The arrows of the Ayutthaya soldiers were shooting at the Donghu soldiers in the river all the time, but the Donghu soldiers only had their heads exposed on the water, and the target was much smaller, and the shooting effect was very unsatisfactory.

The Donghu soldiers gradually approached the shore.

I don't know which of the Ayutthaya generals found the problem, "Throw, shoot the arrow into the sky and let the arrow fall freely." ”

Now the Donghu soldiers in the river are as dense as tadpoles, as long as the arrows fall from the sky, there is no need to aim at all, and there is at least 30% certainty that they will fall on the heads of the Donghu soldiers.

"Ah......h

"Ah......h

"It's painful......"

……

Donghu soldiers let out a miserable scream, these strange screams, more than the red river water, made him worry, looking at the only more than 10,000 Donghu soldiers on the west bank, he shouted, "Brothers, we will cross the river successfully, now all cross the river with me!" ”

"Puff, puff......"

The last Donghu soldiers all jumped into the river and went forward one after another.

The Donghu soldiers who swam in front were encouraged, and they quickened their advance, and the soldiers in the front, whose feet were already up to the floating soil at the bottom of the river, began to shoot arrows and counterattack once their feet were strong, and their free hands.

In the desperate situation, the Donghu soldiers showed far more combat effectiveness than the Dacheng soldiers, and although the 30,000 Dacheng soldiers fought hard, they still let the Donghu soldiers gradually go ashore.

The Taungoo soldiers set up defensive positions on the shore, and the fighting between the two sides was in a state of stalemate, and the Taungoo army could not break through, and the soldiers of Ayutthaya could not move forward.

The Donghu soldiers in the Baigu River continued to come ashore and join the battle against the Ayutthaya soldiers.

At last he climbed the embankment, and he almost collapsed from the hard swim he had just swam, and as soon as he reached the shore, he sat down on the ground with his back to the riverbank.

He suddenly pricked up his ears, and the shouting of the Ming army faintly came from behind him, "It's not good, the Ming army is chasing after you!" He did not care about resting, and with the support of his own soldiers, he began to run towards the embankment.

As soon as he went up to the river embankment, he suddenly found that the soldiers on the opposite side did not have artillery and flintlock guns, and they were not wearing the gray cloth uniforms of the Ming army. ”

He was overjoyed, since it was not the Ming army, he had a way to escape, and he shouted, "Brothers, there are soldiers in Dacheng on the other side, and our men are defeated, rush...... Kill ......"

The hearts of the Donghu soldiers were lifted, and they followed Talon, and pounced on the sheep on the opposite side like wolves, forward, forward, forward, they had only one belief, and that was their only way out.

The soldiers on both sides began to make contact, and they were caught in a hand-to-hand encounter, and he swung his sword and slashed at the soldiers of Ayutthaya who stood in his way.

Suddenly, a stray arrow silently shot at Talong, and when Talong found the stray arrow, it was too late, and his long knife was cutting into the shoulder blades of the soldiers of Ayutthaya, and he could not pull it out for a while.

The arrow went into Thron's neck and passed through his throat.

"Your Majesty......"

The soldiers supported the crumbling Talon, but Ta Long was already speechless, and the blood suddenly found the outlet for the eruption like a volcano, and it was blowing out.

He glanced weakly at the battlefield in front of him, his body fell limply, and the soldiers who helped him were also dragged by his heavy body, and until he died, he Long did not look at it.
