Rolling stones weighing 20 catties can only be hugged by one person, and the rolling wood is up to one zhang long...... With a whistling sound, he was thrown down from the three-battle high wall by the defenders.

In the face of the attack falling from the sky, he had already rushed to the foot of the city wall and was preparing to erect a ladder and climb the tartar of the city wall. The only thing that can be done is to dodge these killing machines that fall from the sky. Because, as long as the whistling stones and rolling logs are touched, the head is broken and bleeding. If you're unlucky, it's possible for your brain to burst.

However, no matter how fast the Tartar reacts, it can't be faster than the Rolling Stone and Rolling Log.

What's more, when they climbed the ladder, they could only carry it hard in the face of the attack falling from the sky, and they didn't even have a chance to dodge.

Therefore, when the first round of rolling stones and fire oil fell from the sky, at least forty or fifty Tartars fell at the foot of the city wall with a scream......

However, in the face of the city wall, which was already close at hand, this loss obviously could not stop the pace of the Tartars' attack.

The first batch of soldiers who climbed the ladder had just been smashed down, and the second group of Tartar soldiers, with fierce faces, climbed the ladder without hesitation, and continued to climb towards the city, going forward and successively, and ......

Hold the wall, have a height advantage, and can easily destroy the Tartars at the foot of the wall. However, they are not much better either. The Tartar archers, constantly throwing arrows at the city walls, are still being shot and killed, and tens of thousands of soldiers are defending the city......

In this way, as the battle continued, the border soldiers guarding the city wall gradually showed some defensive loopholes due to heavy casualties......

It has been pressed at the foot of the city wall by rolling stones and logs, and the tartar who has also lost its care. Didn't miss this opportunity.

With lightning speed. Climb to the top of the city. At the breach, engage the defenders in close quarters.

When the first Tartar storms the city wall and fights the defenders on the wall, the scene appears on the battlefield. The Tartars, who had been pressed at the foot of the city wall and were demoralized, began to climb the city wall desperately as if they had been stimulated in an instant.

This is the end of the other, because the Tartars climbed the city wall, and the morale of the defenders of the city wall. Directly because of this, it began to slowly decline......

Under such circumstances, more and more Tartars began to climb the city. Tong Guò fights at close range, fighting with the defenders for the walls at their feet.

At this time, Liaoyang City under his feet was really at the moment of life and death.

If the head of the city misses, the Tartars can take advantage of the situation to attack Liaoyang. When the time comes, Liaoyang will be lost, and Liaodong will be lost......

Faced with the increasingly bad battle situation in front of him, Hong Chengchou had to draw his sword. With personal guards, rush into the battle.

As a strategic envoy of Liaodong. The guards around Hong Chengchou, not to mention one against a hundred, with one against ten, there is no problem.

Therefore, when hundreds of well-equipped and powerful Hong Chengchou guards entered the battlefield, the situation on the battlefield became more and more terrible, and finally stabilized.

Not only that, but under the encouragement of Hong Chengchou killing the enemy alone, the morale of the soldiers defending the border of the city finally recovered.

Under the leadership of Hong Chengchou, the more he killed, the more courageous he became, and finally slaughtered the hundreds of Tartars who climbed the city wall.

At this moment, the two thousand soldiers who were hurriedly transferred to the city by Hong Chengchou happened to rush to the city wall. With the help of these new forces, the Tartars, who were crushed at the foot of the city walls by rolling stones and logs, could no longer climb the city walls. Then, he had to leave behind the corpses of his comrades all over the ground and withdraw from the battlefield like a lost dog.

At the end of the battle, the soldiers did not rest immediately, but under the command of generals at all levels, they cleaned up the corpses on the city wall.

Soon, the general soldier of Liaoyang, who still had a trace of blood on his body, walked in front of Hong Chengchou and reported with a solemn face.

"My lord, the battle damage has been counted...... In the battle just now, we lost more than 2,900 people. Among these people, more than 2,100 people were killed in direct battle. As for the rest, even if they do not die in battle, there is no way to continue to participate in the battle in a short time......"

"Another 3,000 are gone...... In other words, up to now, there are only 22,000 defenders in Liaoyang City......" Hong Chengchou's face also became gloomy at this moment.

The general soldier of Liaoyang, who also had a solemn face and a look of thinking about the rest of his life after the catastrophe, hurriedly opened his mouth and affirmed.

"Yes, sir...... Of the more than 20,000 people, in addition to the 10,000 people who defended the other three walls, there are only 12,000 soldiers left who can be used for frontal defense...... If you are outside the city, launch another attack of that magnitude. With our current strength, we can only repel one attack from them at most......"

Seeing Hong Chengchou, who was directly silent in front of him, the general soldier of Liaoyang, who was already scared here, reminded with a face full of expectations: "My lord, in the eyes of the last general, the Liaoyang City under our feet can no longer be defended. Coupled with the reinforcements of the imperial court, until now, there has been no news, and it is definitely not an exaggeration to describe it with the words "far away". ”

"Therefore, the last general has the courage to build yì, for the sake of the more than 20,000 soldiers under his command, the lord should immediately lead us to break through and give up Liaoyang ......"

Abandonment of Liaoyang ...... Hong Chengchou, who was still contemplative just now, listened to these words. Up and down his body, he suddenly exuded a thick murderous aura outward. Staring at a pair of eyes that were also full of murderous aura, he stared at the Liaoyang general soldier in front of him, and asked loudly......

"You said let this official give up Liaoyang and let this official be a sinner in the Ming Dynasty......"

After finishing speaking, he didn't give the Liaoyang general in front of him the slightest chance to explain, and scolded loudly: "Do you know how important Liaoyang is to Liaodong? How important is Liaodong to the entire Ming Dynasty......"

"This official is here to tell you that as long as the official is alive for one day, he will defend Liaoyang to the death...... The official also believed that the imperial court would not remain indifferent to the occupation of Liaoyang by the Tartars. ”

Speaking of this, Hong Chengchou directly added to the Liaoyang general soldier with a pale face in front of him: "If it weren't for the fight against the Tartars now, there wouldn't be too many available generals in the hands of this official." Just by virtue of what you just said, this officer will take ...... of military justice against you."

After the Liaoyang general soldier hurriedly retreated, he knew that it was impossible for him to leave Liaoyang City alive.

However, inspired by the belief of 'living', the general army of Liaoyang did not give up this idea.

Soon, several military centers were summoned together by the Liaoyang General Army.

After talking about his conversation with Hong Chengchou, he added fuel and vinegar to it. Several henchmen directly showed a trace of anger from the heart on their faces. and scolded loudly: "He Hong Chengchou wants his brothers to accompany him to die here......"

"When he Hong Chengchou died, the court would give him a pension. However, the brothers died, and there was nothing. Under such circumstances, how can we, the families of our brothers who are looking for death, still live......"

In a good sentence, it is 'the cohesion of things'......

The Liaoyang General Soldier is greedy for life and afraid of death, and several henchmen of the Liaoyang General Soldier are also greedy for life and afraid of death.

Therefore, when they heard Hong Chengchou's decision to defend Liaoyang, their first thought was that they couldn't follow Hong Chengchou to die here and go back alive. It's just that the reasons they say are more high-sounding.

Seeing that his subordinates had the same thoughts as himself, a sneer flashed directly on the face of the chief soldier of Liaoyang.

Under everyone's gaze, he said in a surprising voice: "Ben will also know the difficulties of his brothers. So Ben Jiang just had a reasonable argument with the envoy of the strategy. However, what this general didn't expect was that this master of the strategy would only care about his own reputation, completely ignoring the thoughts and difficulties of his brothers, and still insisted on holding on to the ...... here."

Facing his subordinates, the same as his original self, his expressions became more and more gloomy. Liaoyang's words changed and continued: "However, you are all brothers brought out by Ben Jiang, and Ben Jiang will definitely not watch everyone die here......

"Ben Jiang has an idea here, and it is also a glory and wealth, I don't know if you brothers, are you willing to follow Ben Jiang and do a big job here."

The eyes of several hearts lit up, and with a face full of expectation, they opened their mouths and asked, "General, what way... As long as you can leave Liaoyang City alive, we will all listen to your ......"

"Listen to me, what will you do, you will do it, don't regret it?" Liaoyang General asked with a meaningful face.

A few henchmen knew that the time had come to show loyalty to the Liaoyang general soldiers in front of them.

So, as if they had discussed, several people replied at the same time: "The last general swears to follow the general to the death, and will never regret it." ”

"Very good...."The strict and deep face of the general soldier of Liaoyang finally revealed a smile.

Under everyone's expectant and eager gaze, he said in a surprising voice: "Hong Chengchou plans to defend Liaoyang City, and the entire Liaoyang City is surrounded by tens of thousands of Tartar foot cavalry. In the absence of cavalry, breaking through from Liaoyang will not only fail to succeed, but will also hasten our downfall. Therefore, breaking through this road will definitely not work......"

"You can't break through, and you can't defend it... That leaves us with only one last way..."

"Ben will already say this, you are not stupid people, Ben will believe, you should have understood what Ben will not say..."

Under the gaze of the general soldier of Liaoyang, a henchman asked tentatively: "General, what do you mean, after the surrender of the Golden Tartars...."

The general soldier of Liaoyang shook his head and replied: "Surrender....no, this word is too ugly....we are not surrendering, it is a battlefield uprising, in order to leave a way for the soldiers to live, take the initiative to attach Houjin..."

"As far as the general knows, the generals who were attached to Houjin a year ago are very good mixed in Houjin. Not only did he get the canonization of the Later Golden Emperor Taiji, but he also had a knighthood. And they are all commanders, and they are not deprived of the right to command the troops because they are attached to Houjin..."

"Therefore, as long as we belong to Houjin, what awaits us must be a ...... of glory and wealth" (to be continued......
