Rolling stones weighing twenty kilograms can only be hugged by one person, and the rolling wood that is ten feet long... with a whistling sound, they were thrown off the three-battle-high city wall by the defenders...

Facing the attack falling from the sky, the Tartars who had already rushed to the foot of the city wall and were about to erect a ladder to climb the city wall. The only thing they could do was to avoid these murderous intents falling from the sky. Because, as long as the rolling stones and rolling wood were touched, they would be bleeding. If they were not lucky, they would have a brain burst.

However, no matter how fast the Tartars react, they are not as fast as the rocks and woods.

More importantly, when they climbed the ladder, they could only carry the attacks falling from the sky, and they didn't even have the chance to dodge.

So, when the first round of rolling stones, wood and turmeric oil fell from the sky, at least forty or fifty Tartars screamed and fell at the foot of the city wall, life and death were uncertain...

However, facing the city wall that was already close, this loss obviously could not stop the Tartars' attack.

The first group of soldiers who climbed the ladder were just smashed down, and the second group of Tartar soldiers climbed the ladder without hesitation without hesitation, and continued to climb to the city, one after another, continuously...

Sticking to the city wall, with a height advantage, can easily destroy the Tartars at the foot of the city wall. However, they are not much better. The Tartar archers kept shooting arrows on the city wall, and were still shooting and killing them continuously. They were defending the city to obtain tens of thousands of soldiers...

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

The Tartars, who have been pressed by rolling stones and rolling woods at the foot of the city wall and have also suffered losses, have not missed this opportunity.

With lightning speed, climbed up to the city and fought close-range with the defenders at the gap.

When the first Tartar attacked the city wall and fought with the defenders on the city wall appeared after the battlefield. The Tartar, who had been pressed at the foot of the city wall, had a weak morale, began to climb the city wall with no chance of death as if he had taken stimulants in an instant.

One rises and the other falls, because the Tartars climbed the city wall, and the morale of the city wall defenders began to slowly decline...

Under such circumstances, more and more Tartars began to climb up the city walls through close combat and fought with the defenders for the city walls under their feet.

At this time, Liaoyang City under your feet was truly at the critical moment of life and death.

If the battle at the city wall is wrong, the Tartars can take advantage of the situation to attack Liaoyang. At that time, Liaoyang will lose, and Liaodong will lose...

Faced with the increasingly harsh battle situation in front of him, Hong Chengchou had to draw out his sword and rushed into the battlefield with his personal bodyguards.

As the Liaodong General Commander, the guards around Hong Chengchou are not only good at fighting a hundred, but also against ten.

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

Not only that, encouraged by Hong Chengchou's killing of the enemy alone, the morale of the soldiers guarding the city's border troops finally recovered.

Under the leadership of Hong Chengchou, he became more and more braver as he killed the hundreds of Tartars who had climbed the city walls.

At this moment, the two thousand soldiers who were hurriedly transferred to the city wall by Hong Chengchou happened to rush up to the city wall. With the help of these new forces, the Tartars, who were suppressed by rolling stones and wood, were no longer able to climb up the city wall. Then, they had to throw away the bodies of comrades on the ground, and withdraw from the battlefield like a stray dog.

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

Soon, the Liaoyang General, who was still covered in blood, walked to Hong Chengchou and reported with a solemn look on his face.

"Sir, the damage to the war has been counted... In the battle just now, we lost more than 2,900 people. Among these people, there were more than 2,100 people who died in battle. As for the rest, even if they were not killed in battle, there was no way to continue participating in the battle in a short period of time..."

"There are another three thousand people... In other words, the guards in our Liaoyang City have only 22,000 people in total..." Hong Chengchou's face also became dark at this moment.

The Liaoyang General, who also had a serious expression and thought of surviving the disaster, quickly spoke up and affirmed.

"Yes, sir... more than 20,000 people who have defended the other three walls, we can use it for frontal defense, and only 12,000 soldiers are left... If the Tartars outside the city launch another attack of the scale just now. With our existing troops, we can only repel their attack at most..."

Seeing Hong Chengchou who was silent in front of him, he was already fighting the fear of Liaoyang General here, and reminded him with a look of expectation: "Sir, in the eyes of the last general, the Liaoyang City under our feet can no longer be defended. In addition, the reinforcements of the court have not yet been heard. It is absolutely not an exaggeration to describe it as the words "Nowadays."

"So, the last general dares to suggest that in order to command more than 20,000 soldiers, the lord should lead us to break through immediately and give up Liaoyang..."

Give up Liaoyang... Hong Chengchou, who was still thinking about his face just now, suddenly felt a strong murderous aura emanated from his body. He stared at the general of Liaoyang in front of him and asked loudly...

"You said that I would let me give up Liaoyang and let me be a sinner of the Ming Dynasty..."

After saying that, he did not give the Liaoyang General in front of him any chance to explain, and scolded loudly: "Do you know how important Liaoyang is to Liaodong? Is Liaodong very important to the entire Ming Dynasty..."

"I am here to tell you that as long as I am still alive for one day, I will defend Liaoyang to the death... I also believe that the court will not be indifferent when Liaoyang is occupied by the Tartars."

Speaking of this, Hong Chengchou directly added to the pale general of Liaoyang in front of him: "If it was not for the purpose of fighting the Tartars now, I would not have many generals available. Just based on what you just said, I would be engaged in your military law..."

After the Liaoyang General, who was ashamed, hurriedly retreated, he knew that it was impossible to leave Liaoyang City alive through Hong Chengchou.

However, inspired by the belief of "living", the Liaoyang General did not give up on this idea.

Soon, several soldiers were summoned by the Liaoyang General.

After he spoke up his conversation with Hong Chengchou like a little bit of fire, a hint of anger appeared on his faces, and he cursed loudly: "He, Hong Chengchou, wants his brothers to accompany him to die here..."

"When Hong Chengchou died, the court would give him a pension. However, when the brothers died, there was nothing. In this case, how can our families who are looking for death survive..."

In a good sentence, that is, "things gather inward"...

The Liaoyang General was greedy for life and fear of death. Following several of the Liaoyang General’s confidants, they were also greedy for life and fear of death.

Therefore, when they heard Hong Chengchou's decision to defend Liaoyang, their first thought was that they could not follow Hong Chengchou here to die and go back alive. However, the reasons they said were just more high-sounding.

Seeing the same thoughts as himself, a sneer flashed across the face of the Liaoyang General.

As everyone watched, he said in a shocking way: "I also know the difficulties of my brothers. So I just had a struggle with the Administrator. However, what I didn't expect was that this Administrator made me care about his reputation and completely ignore the ideas and difficulties of my brothers, and insisted on sticking here..."

Facing his subordinates, his expression was increasingly gloomy like himself. The general of Liaoyang changed his words and continued: "However, you are all brothers brought out by me. I will never watch everyone die here in battle..."

"I have an idea here, which is also a blessing and prosperity. I wonder if you brothers, would you like to follow me and have a big fight here."

The eyes under the accomplices lit up, and with expectations on their faces, they asked: "General, what are the solutions... As long as we can leave Liaoyang City alive, we will all listen to you..."

"Listen to me, you will do whatever you want you to do, and you won't regret it?" The General of Liaoyang asked meaningfully.

Several of my confidants knew that it was time to express their loyalty to the Liaoyang General in front of me.

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

"Very good..." The general of Liaoyang finally showed a smile on his serious and deep face.

Under everyone's expectation and eagerness to look at everyone, he said in a shocking statement: "The strategy commander Hong Chengchou planned to defend Liaoyang City to the death, and the entire Liaoyang City was surrounded by tens of thousands of Tartar infantry and cavalry. Without cavalry, breaking through from Liaoyang will not only fail, but will also accelerate our destruction. Therefore, breaking through this road will definitely not work..."

"It's not possible to break through, it's not possible to defend... Then the only way left for us is the last path..."

"I have already said this. You are not stupid people. I believe that you should have understood what I have not said..."

Under the gaze of the Liaoyang General, a confidant asked tentatively: "General, what do you mean is to surrender to the Later Jin Tartars..."

The general of Liaoyang shook his head and replied: "Surrender... No, this word is too ugly... We are not surrendering, but a battlefield uprising. In order to leave a way out for the soldiers, we took the initiative to surrender to the Later Jin..."

"As far as I know, the generals who surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty a year ago were all very good at the Later Jin Dynasty. Not only did they receive the title of Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty and have titles. They were also ordered to command military commanders and were not deprived of their power to command military commanders because they surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty..."
