Half an hour had passed, and the sun had already set in the west, but Mr. Ma had no intention of letting the soldiers stop.

But it can be seen that the momentum of the soldiers' offensive is gradually weakening, and one wave is one wave after another.

Ma Zongbing also felt tired, he really couldn't attack, but he was reluctant to give up his efforts.

Looking at the corpses of countless soldiers on the battlefield, his eyes were a little on fire.

Du Wenlin walked up to him and said loudly:

"This battle can't go on!"

Ma Gui stared at the city wall in front of him with red eyes and did not say a word.

Du Wenlin repeated it again.

Ma Gui waved his hand at his lieutenant, and the attack stopped.

The soldier retreated and began to eat, and Mr. Ma had time to talk to Du Wenlin:

"Lord Du, where are your soldiers?"

The battle was in full swing here, and Du Wenlin's soldiers didn't see a single one, and he was angry.

"They're all stationed ten miles away."

"Even if you come to watch the battle, you can't stay that far." Ma Gui didn't have to be angry to say.

Du Wenlin said patiently:

"I only brought 5,000 soldiers, and if I brought 10,000 soldiers in this way, it would be useless."

"Then how do you say to fight?" was accused by a young man, and he almost jumped up and scolded his mother.

"Mr. Ma, do you think this will work? Withdraw the troops on the other three sides, and leave only a small number of troops to make a feint attack on the south gate in the afternoon, so that the others can rest well. ”

"And then?" Ma Gui asked puzzled.

"After dark, you storm the south gate. I took 5,000 men to quietly go around to the north gate, and took advantage of the emptiness of the north gate to make a breakthrough. What do you think? ”

Ma Gui thought about it, and there was no better way for the time being, so he nodded and agreed.

"Also, after the city is broken, the defeated army will definitely flee from the West Gate to Ningxia City, and you will lay down 5,000 people outside the West Gate in advance and intercept them halfway."

Ma Guixin said that it was no problem to intercept and kill halfway, the key was how to attack the city.

He didn't believe that Du Wenlin's 5,000 soldiers could break through the north gate, so he reluctantly agreed.

When night fell, the cannon fire at the south gate of Jingbian City was endless, shouting to kill and shake the sky, and the firelight reflected red in the air.

The other three gates were dead silent, and there was no movement.

The defenders in the city thought that the Ming army had not captured it with all their strength during the day, and at night they reduced their forces and concentrated on the south gate.

Therefore, most of the troops of the other three gates were transferred to the south gate.

The North Gate is even more lax because it is far away from the battlefield.

Only a few soldiers were napping with their weapons on the towers.

Not far from the east side of the north gate, two black figures quietly jumped up from the dry moat, like two wisps of light smoke flying towards the city wall.

When they came to the base of the wall, the two of them each took out a dagger with a cold light from their arms, looked at each other, and rose to the sky. When the momentum was about to end, the dagger slammed into the wall, and with the force of his wrist, his body took advantage of the momentum to rush again, and he came to the city wall with a few ups and downs.

The two of them climbed the battlement with their hands, their bodies hanging in the air, and observed the enemy situation inside the wall.

There were not many defenders on the walls, only a small number of soldiers lookout.

The two climbed the city wall, evaded the guards, entered the city, and quickly moved in the direction of the city gate.

There were quite a few soldiers in the city resting on the spot, and they all came to guard the north gate.

Unhindered, the two came to the city gate.

There are dozens of soldiers standing on both sides of the city gate, and their duty is to guard the city gate, and they dare not slack off in the slightest.

The two looked at each other, and one of them, a thin man in black, drew his sword and slashed at the soldiers guarding the door like a whirlwind.

His body was too fast, and the speed of his sword was even faster, and the soldiers were stabbed down by six or seven people in the blink of an eye.

As soon as the other soldiers saw someone entering, they surrounded them.

Another man in black took the opportunity to rush to the city gate, and before the two soldiers could stab their weapons, their throats were cut by daggers.

He easily pushed off the deadbolt that usually required two stout soldiers to lift, opening a city gate.

The Ming soldiers, who had long been in ambush outside, saw that the city gate had been opened, and rushed in shouting.

The soldiers defending the city woke up like a dream at this time and tried to come and block the city gate.

However, the Ming army poured in like a tide, more and more, from the city gate to the city gradually covered the past, shouting killing to the sky.

The defenders in the city saw that the general situation had gone, and they fled one after another, and the officials could not control it at all.

Once a soldier loses his fighting spirit, like a dam collapsing, it will become a disaster in an instant.

It didn't take half an hour for the Ming army to control a large area near the north gate, and it was still developing inside.

The battle at the south gate is still fierce, and Magui's troops are still attacking desperately, and there is a great tendency to not break and return.

The officer defending the city, King Qianhu, had just received a report that the north gate had been broken, the defeated army had retreated to the center of the city, and the south gate was about to be attacked by the enemy.

Wang Gang felt a sadness in his heart:

"Jingbian is finished!"

Ordered his subordinates to retreat to the West City Gate, preparing to break through the West Gate in the direction of Ningxia.

Ma Gui was fighting a lot of money, and suddenly saw that the resistance on the head of the city stopped, and there were few soldiers.

Overjoyed, he commanded his soldiers to climb the walls and open the south gate.

The soldiers of the Ming army, who had gnawed on the bones for a day, instantly poured into the city.

Wang Gang took more than 2,000 elite soldiers, opened the west gate, and broke through to Ningxia City.

The commander fled, and the remaining soldiers no longer had the fighting spirit, threw down their weapons, and surrendered one after another.

In less than an hour, the soldiers on the north and south sides met in the city, and Jingbian City was completely destroyed.

The Ming army, which invaded from the north gate, guarded the soldiers who threw down their weapons on the streets, and sent soldiers to guard every street, and it was strictly forbidden to trespass on private houses.

The Ming army that entered the city from the south gate may have vented the grievances of the arduous siege of the city.

Du Wenlin, who was still dressed in black, and Wang Ling, who was also dressed in black, stood in the city, looking at the miserable scene in the southern half of the city, their faces solemn.

If it weren't for their adventurous sneak attack to open the north gate, it would be impossible for Magui to capture the south gate now.

And when they entered the city, they were like wolves into the sheepfold, and the common people became lambs in the pen.

An officer came from the south on horseback, followed by a group of soldiers.

Du Wenlin took a few thousand households to block his way.

The bearded officer pointed with a long knife in his hand:

"What part of you are from, why don't you go after the bandits?"

"We've taken over here, please come back!" Du Wenlin spoke politely.

The officer looked at Du Wenlin, who was dressed in black, and then looked at the thousands of households beside him, and he didn't know where the other party came from, so his attitude was a little more restrained.

"Report your name, and the official will have an explanation when he goes back." He asked, riding on his horse.

"Please go back and tell Mr. Ma, just say that Beicheng has been taken over by Du Wenlin." Du Wenlin said tepidly.

"What is Du Wenlin, I haven't heard of it." He originally thought that the other party was a famous person, but now it seems that he is just an unknown person.

As soon as the words fell, his eyes went dark, and his right cheek was slapped heavily, and he suddenly felt dizzy.

A petite soldier jumped up from Du Wenlin's side and slapped him, and before he could react, the soldier had already returned to his original position.

He had never been insulted in such a way, and in a moment of annoyance, he swung his knife and slashed at the short soldier.

However, as soon as the knife was cut halfway, only half of it remained.

The slender man in black who was standing next to Du Wenlin cut off his long knife with his sword.

At this time, he was really dumbfounded, and he was insulted one after another, but he didn't have the courage to argue with the other party again.

I was afraid, but with so many subordinates behind me, I really couldn't afford to lose my face.

"Do you want to rebel?" With a wave of his hand, the soldiers behind him immediately rushed forward and surrounded Du Wenlin and them in the middle.

Rong'er drew her dagger and squinted at the officer, eager to try.

Du Wenlin shook his head, and said in his heart that these real soldiers are not afraid of death except for fighting, and they are not very good at their brains.

"Stop!" A shout was heard, and another group of men and horses came from the south.

Du Wenlin saw that it was Ma Gui who had arrived.

Ma Gui came to him, saw Du Wenlin who was surrounded in the middle, hurriedly dismounted, and ordered the officer:

"Take your men and horses and search the West City immediately."

The officer glanced at Du Wenlin unwillingly and led the people to the west.

Ma Gui arched his hand and said:

"On behalf of all my subordinates, thank you, Lord Du!"

Du Wenlin hurriedly returned the salute.

"If it weren't for Lord Du's wit and bravery to take Jingbian City in one fell swoop, I don't know how many of my subordinates would have died in battle?" Ma Gui is a cheerful person and outspoken.

Hearing him say this, Du Wenlin was a little embarrassed. He is not a proud person, and he thinks he just did what he should have done.

"Mr. Ma has won the award! It's just that the lower official has a small request, I don't know if to talk about it or not? Du Wenlin asked.

"Master Du, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"The lower officials want to ask General Ma to restrain some of his subordinates and try not to harass the people in the city."

After hearing this, Ma Gui's face turned red, and he turned his face to the adjutant and said:

"Pass my orders, no one is allowed to harass the people in the city, and those who violate the law will be punished on the spot."

"The task of the lower officer has been completed, and after dawn, the north city will be handed over to General Ma. and his subordinates returned to Yan'an Mansion. Du Wenlin said again.

"Hey, Lord Du and his subordinates have made great contributions to the battle of Jingbian, and the official will personally reward the three armies after dawn, and how about leaving when the soldiers are full of food and drink?" Ma Gui is also sincerely retained.

Du Wenlin saw that his intentions were very sincere, so he agreed.

Du Wenlin looked at the sky and said to the thousands of households under his hand:

"Everyone's worked hard tonight. At this time, the time had passed, and some of the people were left to watch over the captives and maintain law and order, while others rested on the spot. ”

Under the eaves of the street, in the shade of the trees, resting soldiers lay down.

Ma Gui's subordinates, who attacked all the way from the southern city, saw that the northern city was so quiet, and the soldiers were all lying on the ground to rest, and they all felt strange. In their experience, shouldn't this be the time to hunt down the remnants of the enemy and at the same time go into the people's homes to grab some money?

Since you have this experience, you can't be idle. As a result, many people's homes were broken into, beatings, scolding, and shouting could be heard everywhere, and robbery and rape were inevitable.

Of course, many of them did not survive tonight, and were punished on the spot by the law enforcement team temporarily set up by Ma Gui.

Ma Gui didn't want the younger generations from the capital to go back, and it was rumored that he was not strict in governing the army.

Besides, everyone knows very well who should be credited with the main credit for the capture of Jingbian City tonight, which also makes this veteran who has been on the battlefield for decades feel disgraced.

If you connive at your subordinates to harass the people, wouldn't it be more realistic?

When it was almost dawn, Ma Gui's men carried many captives into the city through the west gate.

Du Wenlin knew that this was a rebel who escaped from the West Gate and was intercepted and killed by the Ming army in ambush halfway, and it was estimated that there would not be many people who could escape through the net.

Looking up at the sky, Dongfang had begun to turn white, his eyelids were a little heavy, and Wang Ling and Rong'er, who were nestled on both sides of his body, also fell asleep, Rong'er was smiling in her sleep, and the corners of her mouth were still drooling.

Du Wenlin couldn't help laughing, the little girl might have encountered something beautiful in her dream.

After laughing, my heart was full of pity. Where is the place where they should come to such a brutal battlefield of flesh and blood?

The desolate border is swept by the wind every day, and the yellow sand is everywhere. Not to mention such a delicate girl, even the soldiers who have been in the border for a long time are miserable.

But they endured silently along the way, without complaint or regret.

Du Wenlin knew what they were for.

In fact, they have no concept of social safety, they were born and died together, in the end, is it not to accompany him?

Thinking of this, I felt a faint pain in my heart.

There is even a feeling of guilt that is deeply rooted.
