This tragic scene made Zhao Guangning, who was commanding the battle at the head of the city, frown, looking at the performance of the Eight Banners Army under the city without fear of death, he was shocked in his heart, it turned out that this is the real combat power of Houjin, no wonder many people in the Ming Dynasty changed their voices when they heard about Houjin, just this fierce attack without fear of death can make people frightened.

Looking at the militia soldiers around him who were trembling in fear of Houjin's offensive, Zhao Guangning shouted: "What are you afraid of? These Tartars are also human beings, and they will die if they are shot and bleed when they are slashed with knives. They are not afraid of death, but you are afraid of death? You're fucking men, too, and you're seeded! ”

"I'm scared, I'm going home!" A militia soldier cried and shouted, but was caught by Zhao Guangning, directly slapped him a few times, and then grabbed it, and said viciously in front of the soldier's face: "If you want to go home, it's very simple, kill all the Tartars under the city, and you can go home!" ”

Zhao Guangning's hideous mask flashed in front of the militia soldiers, like a monster, which frightened the soldier's already small courage even more, he shook his legs, and then urinated gorgeously.

Zhao Guangning threw down the soldier in disgust, unmasked him, pointed at himself and said: "Lao Tzu is also afraid, I haven't begged for a daughter-in-law yet, Lao Tzu has thousands of family fortunes in his family, or countless wives and concubines waiting for Lao Tzu to enjoy, according to your thoughts, Lao Tzu should have run away early." But Lao Tzu doesn't run, Lao Tzu is a man, a man with seeds! ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't run, you run a fart, Lao Tzu still wants to be promoted and make a fortune, what about you, you are so poor that you can't even talk about your daughter-in-law, now the time to get rich has come, don't seize the opportunity to have a future." You're all going to be poor ghosts! Listen to me, kill them, and then take the reward and go back to being a rich man! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Guangning suddenly smiled coldly, and he said loudly: "What's more, you can't run if you want to, the city gate has been sealed by me, if you want to live, kill these people for me, otherwise you will wait for the Tartars to cut off your heads and receive the reward!" Either you die or they die. Make your choice! ”

After speaking. Zhao Guangning put on the mask again, picked up the musket in his hand, and pulled the trigger at the Eight Banners soldiers under the city, after knocking over a Tartar. Immediately retracted. Reload ammunition on one side. While saying, "See? Kill the Tartars, it's that simple! ”

When the surrounding militia soldiers saw this, their courage regained a little. What's more, Zhao Guangning denied them a way to retreat, and in order to survive, they had to pick up the weapons in their hands and start fighting against the city.

Zhao Guangning saw that the militia soldiers returned to normal, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally let them survive, fortunately it did not cause the soldiers to rout and escape, hey, the militia in his hands is like this, when encountering this kind of fierce attack that is not afraid of death, they will be exposed in their original form, and they have never seen blood.

Zhao Guangning took his Spanish phalanx as a swimming support team, where it was tight, he rushed over to support, so a few times to run down, Zhao Guangning was so tired that he didn't want to move, although this plate armor has good defense, but it is too heavy, it consumes physical strength, and now the armor is full of sweat.

Zhao Guangning leaned against the corner of the city wall, panting, while ordering the militia under the city to come up to support, now there are still a few reserves in the city, if this fight continues, the recruited people will also be sent to the city wall.

The Houjin soldiers under the city are not monsters who don't eat or drink, they are also tired, especially the archers, the surviving archers can't even lift their hands, Huang Taiji saw this, so he had to Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

When the Eight Banners retreated like a tide, Zhao Guangning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and he waved his hand weakly and ordered: "Let the city bring up the food, everyone take a rest!" ”

When a basket of steamed buns was served, the soldiers of the Dongjiang Army picked it up and ate it, while the people looked at the bloody scene in front of them, and they all began to vomit, and they couldn't eat it at all.

"Eat? How can you have the physical strength to kill the enemy if you don't eat? Zhao Guangning picked up two steamed buns and ate them in a big gulp, although he looked good, but he had been in the army for a long time, and there was no difference between eating and the rough men in the army. While eating, he said, "Cherish it, it's not easy to eat alive!" ”

The militia vomited almost, and when they saw this, they also ate it, but they just looked at them as if they were eating poison.

Zhao Guangning ate three steamed buns in a row, and after filling his stomach with water in the water bladder, he stretched out comfortably, and then asked the people on the side: "I asked you to bury explosives, how are you prepared?" ”

"It's buried, but do you really want to do that? Didn't the marshal ask you to lead people to retreat, and now that the task is completed, why don't you leave? His subordinates asked in confusion, in his opinion, Zhao Guangning was purely stupid.

"Dashuai let me go, that's a good intention, but, do you think I can go? If I go, this new golden city will be a Tartar, and then how much will it cost the commander to attack this city? And these artillery can't be taken away at once, aren't they all cheap Tartars? Zhao Guangning asked lightly, it seems that he has thought about it a long time ago.

"We can blow up the city walls and cannons, so it's useless to occupy the Houjin!"

"We're safe, but can these forts of Red Chew Fortress compare to New Golden City? And there are not many of them, they can't stop Huang Taiji at all, in this case, not only will the marshal's plan fail, but the defenders of Donggou will be in danger. Zhao Guangning said with a long sigh.

"And it was not easy for the handsome to make Dolgon and Huang Taiji turn against each other, if Huang Taiji catches up with Dolgon, how can that little person in Dolgon's hands be Huang Taiji's opponent, if Dolgon is killed, Huang Taiji will be even stronger, so, no matter what, I will nail Huang Taiji!"

The people on the side listened to Zhao Guangning's words, and couldn't help but admire in their hearts, and after a long time, someone asked: "Young master, if something happens to you, how can you explain it to your family?" ”

"I have left a suicide note for my family, and if something really happens, they should not have me! Da Shuai is a nostalgic person, he will take care of the family on my behalf in the future, as long as Da Shuai is in one day, my Zhao family's business will not fall!" Zhao Guangning was very firm when he said this, and he was very confident in Wang Dalun.

Before everyone could be persuaded again, Zhao Guangning waved his hand and said apologetically: "I'm sorry for bothering you!" ”

"Young master, there is no need to say that, not only you bring the seeds, but we are also men who stand up to the sky, and it is worth dying here!" The men said in a deep voice.

"Okay, okay, then let the Tartars know how powerful we are, let them see, not only are they not afraid of death, but we are also not afraid of death! If they want to take this city, they must be prepared to shed their blood! Zhao Guangning laughed loudly.

Suddenly, someone next to him shouted, "Look, what are the Tartars doing?" ”

Zhao Guangning looked up and saw that the Eight Banners Army was smashing bowls, and the cauldron used to cook rice was also broken. Zhao Guangning's face slowly became serious, he looked at the generals around him, and said in a deep voice: "Tartars, this is to prepare to work hard, this time they are determined to become benevolent if they don't succeed!" ”

Everyone's expressions couldn't help but tighten, it seemed that this time it was dangerous, Zhao Guangning laughed and said: "Okay, since their days are over, we are not ready to live, the fire points in the city are prepared for me, and the fuses are also buried, this time we will accompany the Tartars to go crazy once!" ”

"Fight with them!" The crowd shouted, and then they began to prepare, and all the shells were removed, and all the grenades were released, the bullets were loaded, and the knives were sharpened. The militia soldiers were also silently sorting out their weapons.

The general offensive began again, this time the Eight Banners fought more resolutely than in the morning, and under the accumulation of their lives, the cannonballs and grenades on the city gradually ran out, more and more ladders were erected, and then more and more Eight Banners soldiers climbed to the top of the city.

"Kill!" Zhao Guangning, whose whole body was covered by armor, roared angrily, raising the knife in his hand to slash left and right, like a killing god, slashing and killing the Eight Banners soldiers who rushed up. The heavy infantry of the Spanish phalanx became the busiest men in the city, and they slashed everywhere, driving down the waves of Eight Banners.

Although Zhao Guangning and others were very hard-working, they couldn't stand the large number of Eight Banner soldiers, and the Eight Banner soldiers who poured up like a tide seemed to be inexhaustible, and the Ming troops in the city were constantly killed, and the heavy armor soldiers around Zhao Guangning were also getting fewer and fewer, and gradually, they were compressed at the staircase of the lower city.

"Young master, withdraw quickly, we can't hold much time!" The soldiers around Zhao Guangning shouted while relying on the armor on their bodies to confront the soldiers who rushed up, although their defense was high, but under the attack of the heavy weapons in the Eight Banners, the number was getting smaller and smaller.

Zhao Guangning shouted frantically: "Leave me alone, the people in the city hurry up and light the fire!" This city must not be allowed to fall into the hands of the Tartars! ”

The people under the city originally wanted to accept Zhao Guangning's retreat, but after listening to Zhao Guangning's words, they hurriedly shouted: "General retreat, let's stop the Tartars!" ”

Zhao Guangning was so tired that he couldn't lift his hands now, and he shouted: "I don't have the strength anymore, hurry, I'll stop the Tartar and light the fire!" Light a fire for me! ”

After speaking, Zhao Guangning suddenly burst into a loud shout, and used all the remaining strength in his body, he rushed to the enemy like a madman, slashing and slashing frantically, and he didn't dodge the other party's weapon at all, and soon, he was fell, and the Eight Banners soldier on the side slashed the knife in his hand at Zhao Guangning on the ground.

"Ignition!" Zhao Guangning also shouted before he died.

With tears in their eyes, the people under the city lit the fuse, and they laughed and said, "General Zhao, wait for us, we will come to you with the Tartar soon!" ”

The survivors drew their knives and rushed towards the Eight Banners Army who rushed down to the city, and when they were cut down, a shocking noise came out, only to see that the city wall that everyone was fighting for just now was gone, the sky was full of bricks and stones, there were no living people at the explosion point, and the fire in the city was burning.
