The Ming army collapsed the city wall, but did not attack the city and directly withdrew its troops.

Seeing this, Bolehe immediately asked Liu Liangzuo and others to repair the city wall, and hurriedly led his troops back to the inner city and reported to Ajige.

Azig had already seen the Ming army return to the camp. After hearing Boleh's reward, he couldn't help but wonder.

What is Zhao Zamao going to do? Ajige thought for a while and felt uneasy.

"It's good that Zhao Zamao attacks the outer city! It can give the inner city a breath." Ajige pondered for a while, glanced at Boleh, and ordered: "Since Zhao Zamao attacked the outer city, then you should temporarily station the outer city and urge the Han army to defend the city! In addition, Zhao Zamao bombarded the outer city without bombing the inner city, most of the time it was to find out that I had dug a trench and built a new earth wall on the inside of the city wall. After you go, you can lead the generals of the outer city and dig one."

Boleh nodded reluctantly, "I know. But I'm afraid it's too late to go through time!"

Ajige said in anger: "Don't you use your brain? Zhao Zamao collapsed the city wall and did not attack. He is waiting for the Han army in the outer city to surrender itself."

Bolehe was stunned. He knew that the Han army in the outer city was unreliable, so he pushed me to the outer city. Is I your own son?

...

At the collapse of the city wall, Liu Liangzuo and others stood in the city, watching the soldiers transporting earth and stones to repair the city wall.

"Master-in-law, what's the use of repairing this? The giant cannon will collapse if it hits!" Liu Zehong said in a low voice.

Liu Liangzuo said: "Zhao Ming collapsed the city wall but did not attack. This is a policeman who told us that the Ming army is strong enough to break the city. If he does not surrender, he will die. If he withdraws his troops, he will give us another chance."

"Military Liu, what were you talking about?" A voice suddenly came from behind.

Liu Liangzuo was shocked and turned his head to see that it was indeed Prince Boleh.

"Why is the prince back? Just leave it to the servant!" Liu Liangzuo was startled and hurriedly stepped forward and beat Qian'er.

Boleh actually didn't want to come back, but he had no choice but to let him come to the outer city.

Even if the Han army wants to surrender and launch a rebellion, they must try their best to delay time.

Now time will be the key to whether he can defeat Zhao Ming in the battle between the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Bolech looked at the busy soldiers and asked, "How long will it take to repair the city wall?"

Liu Liangzuo said: "Report to my master, the work can be completed in the middle of the night."

Bolech nodded, then said: "The emperor passed on an order to dig deep trenches inside the city wall and build earthen walls. In this way, even if the city wall is collapsed, the deep trenches and earthen walls can prevent the enemy from entering the city."

Liu Liangzuo frowned and said, "In this way, a large number of houses have to be demolished, and there is no time left!"

Boleh nodded, "It's really not enough time. If the Ming army attacks the city tomorrow, it's really too late."

After Boleh finished speaking, he immediately said to Liu Liangzuo: "You come with this prince first and discuss with you if you have something to do."

After saying that, Boleh turned around and walked back, and Liu Liangzuo had to follow quickly.

Azig asked Boleh to station in the outer city, but Boleh did not dare to leave the inner city too far, so he lived outside Chongwen Gate, less than two hundred steps away from the city wall.

If there is any change in the outer city, he can quickly escape into the inner city, but he will quickly control the Chongwen Sect to prevent the rebels from rushing into the whole city.

When Liu Liangzuo saw Boleh staying in a dilapidated house, he couldn't help but say, "How can the prince live in such a place? It's better for a servant to give up the mansion and let the prince live."

But Boleh shook his head and said, "In extraordinary times, I don't care so much, so let's live here for the time being."

At this time, the group walked into the house and came to a room to sit down.

Bolehe then lowered his face and said seriously: "General Liu, can I trust you?"

When Liu Liangzuo heard this, before his butt was hot, he stood up again and knelt down to express his opinion, "I am loyal to the Qing Dynasty and to the prince."

Bolehe nodded and then said, "I think I can trust you too. Your brother Liu Liangchen surrendered to the Qing Dynasty when he was outside the pass. Although you surrendered later, it was precisely because of your surrender that the four towns in Jiangbei of the Ming Dynasty collapsed and the Qing Dynasty could easily cross the river and conquer Nanjing."

Liu Liangzuo felt bitter. These things have now become his burden. Otherwise, he would have been rebelling and returned to the Ming Dynasty.

Boleh continued: "I have something for you to do!"

Liu Liangzuo hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Master, just give me instructions!"

Bolehe said in a deep voice: "I want you to send someone out of the city to surrender like Zhao Ming!"

Liu Liangzuo was shocked when he heard the words. He did have this sign in his heart, but how did Boleh know?

Or does Boleh also want to surrender?

Liu Liangzuo was worried that it was a temptation, so he was so anxious that he kowtowed, "Master, the servant is loyal to the Qing Dynasty, how could he surrender?"

Bolech waved his hand, "Good slave, it's not that you really surrender. It takes time to dig trenches and build walls. If you pretend to surrender, you will delay the prince for three days."

After coming out of Boleh, Liu Liangzuo returned to his residence and sent someone to summon Liu Zehong back to his residence.

"Master-in-chief is looking for me?" Liu Zehong came in and asked.

Liu Liangzuo said in a deep voice: "Tonight, you go outside the city, like the Ming army surrendering."

Liu Zehong's eyes widened and said in a panic: "What's the decision of the father-in-chief?"

Liu Liangzuo shook his head, "It's not decided yet! Back then, the Hongguang court set up four towns in Jiangbei to defend against the Qing army. His father suddenly surrendered, causing the four towns to surrender, and Hongguang was destroyed. After that, his father attacked Jiangyin and became enemies with Zhao Ming. If the Qing Dynasty could hold on, his father would naturally not be willing to surrender!"

"Can the Qing Dynasty hold on?" Liu Zehong asked.

Liu Liangzuo sighed: "I think it's quite lingering, but it's not without a chance!"

"Then my father asked me to surrender?" Liu Zehong asked again with emotion: "Is it because he wants to leave a seed for the Liu family?"

Liu Liangzuo glared at him, "This is the prince's decision. Let the father delay him for three days to strengthen the defense of the outer city."

Liu Zehong said: "What about three days later?"

Liu Liangzuo said: "In three days, let's see the situation again!"

...

That night, in the Ming army camp.

Zhao Ming and the generals surrounded the sand table and said in a deep voice: "I was so shocked today, the Han army in the outer city should be shaken."

Zhang Jiayu, the army joined the army, said: "If the Han army in the city is willing to be an internal support, it will be relatively easier to capture Chongwen Gate, Zhengyang Gate, and Xuanwu Gate."

Zhao Ming nodded slightly, "Not bad! At that time, the army will attack the inner city and restrain Ajige. The inner city will take the opportunity to seize the three gates. Then he can lead the army into the outer city and enter the inner city from the three gates."

Ajige stationed troops in all three gates. If the Ming army attacked the outer city and Ajige saw that the outer city was broken, he would probably block the three gates together, which would be difficult to attack.

Therefore, only when the Ming army captured the outer city and captured three gates, the battle could be easily fought.

At this time, Wang Shuang suddenly entered the tent, bowed and clasped his fists, "Your Highness, there is a person hanging down outside the city and being held by the soldiers."

"Your Highness's plan has worked!" Zhang Jiayu immediately smiled.
