Li Wei watched this siege battle from afar, and he couldn't bear it.

The last time he fought that battle was at night, and the dead were all enemies, he didn't feel much of it, but now this time it was broad daylight, and the scene of flesh and blood flying was really presented in front of him, which made it difficult for him to calm down for a while.

After estimating the casualties of the former army to a certain extent, Hu Hai ordered them to retreat and replace them with another 5,000 men to rush forward again.

With wave after wave of attacks, pieces of corpses piled up under the city, and the defenders in the city continued to suffer casualties, but compared to the Ming army besieging the city, it was much better.

However, the Ming army took turns in several waves, and they gradually became tired after a long time, giving the Ming army the opportunity to climb the city wall.

Once someone climbed the city wall somewhere, the Northern Yuan defenders immediately surrounded it, and the Ming army that boarded up knew that there was no way to retreat, and they could only fight to the death.

Although most of the Ming troops who landed in the city would be driven down again, this situation still made Daruhua frightened.

It's only the first day, if he goes under this situation, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold it for a few days and will be broken by the Ming army!

The battle lasted a whole day, and it was not until it was getting dark that Hu Hai ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

At night, the campfire of the Ming army was lit, and the generals gathered together to study tactics, and after a day of testing, Hu Hai also figured out the strength of the defenders of Puding City, and his confidence was greatly increased.

"Tomorrow, I plan to advance in three directions, alternating between virtual and real during the attack, so that the defenders in the city will be exhausted, so that in a few days, I will be able to break through the city!"

Hu Hai said loudly.

Fu Youde nodded slightly, and the generals also agreed.

Only Li Wei expressed a different opinion: "I think it's better to let me bombard, I guarantee that the city will be broken in less than three days!" ”

He wants to reduce some casualties, although those soldiers are not his soldiers, but they are all Ming people, living people!

Hu Hai, who was still very proud, suddenly lowered his face when he heard this, and snorted coldly in displeasure.

The other generals didn't bother to pay attention to him this time, just thinking that he was ignorant and fearless.

Fu Youde did not respond to his request, but just asked Hu Hai to continue the siege of the city tomorrow as planned.

Seeing this, Li Wei could only shake his head and sigh secretly.

On the second day, Hu Hai commanded the army again, three roads went out together, and the siege was missing one, during which the direction of the main attack was reversed several times, forcing the defenders of the city to follow back and forth to mobilize support.

On the third day, the city of Puding was almost lost several times, but in the end the defenders drove down the Ming army that rushed up.

At this time, Li Wei no longer went to watch the battle, and stayed directly in the camp to wait for news, Fu Youde felt that it was more reassuring for him to stay in the camp, so he happily agreed.

In the evening, Hu Hai returned to the camp with his generals, although he was tired, his spirit was very uplifted, and he had a relaxed smile on his face.

Although he still failed to break the city today, the fatigue of the defenders has been revealed, and he believes that it will not take it in a few days!

Li Wei, who was wandering around in the camp, saw him like this, and immediately perked up, stepped forward and asked, "Hu Dudu, are you done fighting?" ”

Hu Hai, who had just entered the camp gate, suddenly smiled and said angrily: "How can it be as easy to attack the city as you think?" ”

"Or else?"

Li Wei took it for granted, it's been three days, I can finish all of them, and you haven't finished fighting a small city yet?

"Ling...... Hum! ”

Hu Hai was suddenly angry with him, and the good mood of breaking the city dissipated in an instant, snorted coldly, and waved his sleeves away.

The soldiers under him also gave Li Wei a roll of his eyes, and followed him back to the camp to rest.

Li Wei pursed his lips, feeling a little disappointed, originally he still wanted to hurry up and go home for the New Year, but now it's November, and it seems that there is no hope at this rate.

Thinking that Xiaoqing at home did not have his own guidance and teaching, and the level of idioms must have declined again, he sighed for a while.

In Puding City, Daru Huachi cautiously inspected the city defense, and then returned to his house worriedly.

"My lord, can we hold it?" Xie Cheng asked in a low voice.

Daru Huachi took a deep breath and said, "If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!" ”

Seeing him like this, Xie Cheng suddenly became even more worried.

"In this way, tell the soldiers tomorrow that the 100,000 troops supported by King Liang will arrive in a few days!"

"This ...... Are you sure? ”

Daruhua glanced at him coldly: "Of course it's true!" ”

Xie Cheng's eyes flickered, he didn't believe his nonsense at all, but he didn't dare to question it.

On the fourth day, after Daru Huachi released the news, the morale of the defenders was immediately boosted.

Hu Hai, who was besieging the city, suddenly felt the pressure, this first day was not even as good as yesterday, and the Ming army was quickly strangled by the defenders several times when he landed in the city.

After collecting the troops, Hu Hai frowned and returned to the camp, and Li Wei, like yesterday, came up and asked, "Is the fight over?" ”

Hu Hai glanced up at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.

As soon as Li Wei saw this, he knew that there was no drama today, so he immediately shook his head and sighed in disappointment, made a look of hating iron but not steel, turned around and left, and gritted his teeth to Hu Hai with anger!

On the fifth and sixth days, Li Wei asked every day, Hu Hai was so annoyed, but he couldn't care about answering this goods now, although the Yuan army was exhausted in the past few days, but the morale was still strong, and for a while it temporarily blocked the offensive of the Ming army.

If the fight continues like this, although he is still sure to break the city in the end, I am afraid that the seven-day promise will be in vain.

All the generals gathered in Fu Youde's military tent, all frowning and silent.

Everyone has seen the battle in the past few days very clearly, Hu Hai's command is still very good, no matter which of them is replaced, it can't be better.

However, now that it is the sixth day, tomorrow is the seventh day of Hu Hai's promise, and I am afraid that there is not much hope for this situation.

"Can you break the city tomorrow?"

Although he knew that there was little hope, Fu Youde couldn't help but ask.

The corners of Hu Hai's mouth moved, and he was no longer as confident as before.

"The last general will go all out!" After a moment of silence, Hu Hai said.

Fu Youde couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard his obvious lack of confidence, and everyone fell silent.

"Why don't you let me go up, I don't think this small city can resist my artillery at all, and it will definitely be taken in two or three days!"

Li Wei took the opportunity to propose again.

Hu Hai's face suddenly became a little ugly, and he refuted angrily: "Do you think artillery is omnipotent? I've been bombarding a lot these days, haven't you seen it? ”

Li Wei said disdainfully: "Can my cannon be the same as your tattered?" ”

"What's the difference?"

Li Wei didn't hide it, and said directly: "First of all, the firing range, the guns of my Shenji battalion only need to be arranged one mile away, and they can hit the city, unlike your tattered, you have to run to the house and put it again." ”

"Hmph, what do you know, the artillery can hit a mile away, but the power of the shells will be reduced sharply, and the advantages of the artillery will not be brought into play at all!"

"We're different, I'm a powerful ......"

"What's the difference, I see that your cannon is thin and short, and the power is probably not as good as mine......"

"Fart, you're thin and short!" Li Wei was furious!

"Alright, alright!"

Fu Youde hurriedly interrupted the quarrel between the two, groaned for a while, and asked Li Wei, "You really only need to deploy the cannon a mile away?" ”

Li Wei suppressed the anger that was exposed, and said solemnly: "Yes, my Shenji Battalion only needs to be arranged one mile away, and it doesn't take a single soldier to take this city!" ”

Hu Hai was disdainful, and the other generals also sneered.

Fu Youde thought about it, and finally relented: "It's okay, then you can arrange for the Shenji Battalion to bombard the city one mile away......"

"General......" When Mu Ying heard this, he immediately wanted to persuade Li Wei that Li Wei couldn't have anything to do, so it was better to let him stay honestly in the back and learn more and see more.
