Chapter 234: Qiantun Guard Battle (9)

In the corner tower of the former city, Yan Yingyuan, who had been tired for two days and two nights, finally couldn't bear the fatigue, and under the repeated persuasion of the two personal soldiers, he lay down on the board temporarily laid with shabby bedding in the corner tower.

After several days of tense nerves, when he really relaxed, Yan Yingyuan felt how tired his body was, his whole body was sore, his eyelids were as heavy as iron stone, and he didn't want to open them when he closed them, so he fell asleep in a daze.

It is said that it is the most tired time of the day, and it is also the coldest time of the day.

Inside and outside Qiantun City, everything is silent, and a few stars twinkle lonely in the night sky.

Boom - a huge cannon shot suddenly pierced the quiet cold night.

With the sound of a cannon, the gate of Qiantun City suddenly creaked and was pulled open from the inside.

Immediately after that, the sound of horses' hooves and shouts of killing outside the city came from far and near to the former city.

Dozens of soldiers opened the gates of the city and rushed out.

"I'm Hu Zihao, and I want to see His Royal Highness the Prince of Daqing." A young man running in front shouted at the galloping Tartars.

But soon these dozens of people were overwhelmed by countless Tartar troops......

The first to wake up was Chen Mingyu under the city, he didn't even take off his armor, and he went out of the dilapidated house with a knife.

"Lord Chen, Tartar...... The Tartars rushed in! A soldier ran from the direction of the city gate in a panic and shouted when he saw Chen Mingyu.

"What? Aren't the gates sealed? Why did the Tartars rush in?

Hurry up and go to the city to inform Lord Yan, Xu Erhe, gather the soldiers, and follow me to meet the enemy! Chen Ming was shocked, but he didn't have time to ask the reason, since the Tartar had already been killed, he had more urgent things to do.

The city was in chaos, and more than 10,000 people in the city were also awakened, and fear invaded this small border city, and the people ran wildly in the night, hoping to escape from this desperate small city.

"Hahaha, Hannu are really afraid of death, this king is worried about being depressed for the past two days, the eldest nephew, compare with each other? See who kills more? Azig rode his horse into the city.

The panicked people in the city and the Ming soldiers scattered everywhere made him lick his lower lip unconsciously, in his eyes, the city was full of poor lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and he was the hunter with a butcher's knife in his hand.

"Hmph, Azig, you don't pretend to be a calf in front of this king, this king is one step ahead!" Haug was also itched by the panicked lamb, and before he could pay attention to Azig, he drew his sword and rushed into the crowd.

"Shoot the arrows!" Chen Mingyu's voice suddenly came from the darkness.

Woooo

Ahh

Chen Mingyu held a war knife in his hand, standing behind a row of crossbowmen, in an emergency, he only came to gather less than a thousand people, and the rest had already scattered and fled, but where could they escape?

The only exit was a continuous influx of Tartar soldiers, and the entire former city fell into hell on earth in an instant.

"Rush to this king! This king wants to capture this thief alive in front of him! Hauge ripped off the arrow feathers from his thighs and roared nonchalantly.

Two thousand Eight Banner soldiers carried scimitars and fought with Chen Ming.

Above the city walls.

"General! Checkmate! A soldier rushed into the corner tower and rudely pushed Yan Yingyuan's body.

Yan Yingyuan was so tired that he didn't realize such a loud cannon fire just now, and when his body was pushed, Yan Yingyuan slowly opened his eyes.

In the dim light in the corner tower, Yan Yingyuan saw a panicked soldier in front of him, the soldier's mouth was wide open, and he kept saying something, but he just couldn't hear it.

After being dizzy for a moment, Yan Yingyuan finally sat up like a spring.

"Lord Yan, Deputy Qian President Hu Zihao took away his brothers under the city wall last night and broke the city gate without permission! He...... He's gone to the enemy! Ma Shining, the official of the thousand households, knelt in front of Yan Yingyuan, shouting tears in his eyes, and said through gritted teeth.

Hu Zihao was his subordinate and the nephew of Zhu Chunchen, the prince of Chengguo in the current dynasty.

In his words, he came to serve in the border army only for gilding, and even then, he was appointed deputy Qianhu from above.

Ordinary soldiers who have fought on the battlefield for half their lives may not be able to hold official positions, just because they have a relative who is the prince of the country, they can soar to the sky.

But there is no way for the thousands of households, but fortunately, this Hu Zihao is also very clever, but he didn't cause him too much trouble, since his thousands of households were assigned to Yan Yingyuan's hands, this Hu Zihao was even more obedient.

But I never thought that at the time of the catastrophe, it would be such a number one person who betrayed everyone in the city.

Qianhu officials are full of guilt, and at the same time, they can't accept it in their hearts, how can they not cherish the prestige of their ancestors so much?

"How's it going out there?" Yan Yingyuan ignored the grief and indignation of the Qianhu officials, but his face was calm.

The situation is already like this, if anger can make thousands of troops, wouldn't the Jianyu have already disappeared.

"Lord Chen is fighting with Jianyu in the city, and the people are in a panic, and the city is ...... It's a mess! "Thousands of officials reported truthfully.

"How many soldiers are there on the walls today?" Yan Yingyuan frowned slightly.

"My lord, the 1,800 soldiers in the city are all brave fighters!" Seeing that the general's face was as usual, the Qianhu official not only felt ashamed of his crying expression, but then said loudly.

"Quickly take a thousand people down the city wall to support Lord Chen! Remember that the Tartars will not let us go, and tell the soldiers that when you fight bravely to kill the enemy, the Ming will avenge you! ”

"Obedience! I wish the general a prosperous and prosperous martial arts, and be one step ahead of his humble duties! The Qianhu official gave the last salute and resolutely walked out of the corner tower.

In the cold winter night, a group of barbarians in order to vent, a group of innocent people in order to live, the city shouted killing, screaming, and helping.

Yan Yingyuan got up and took out the pen and ink from the corner, spread out a piece of rice paper, and raised the pen to write something.

He hesitated, threw the brush on the table, stretched out his right index finger, bit it, sprayed blood, and waved his finger into a book.

Leaning less, Yan Yingyuan folded the letter neatly and stuffed it into his arms, and walked out of the corner tower.

Outside the corner tower, eight hundred soldiers were already waiting here, waiting for their generals, even if they knew their final fate.

"General, Liang Kewang, a hundred households of the lowly Jinyi Guard, has seen General Yan!"

A soldier dressed in Ming army armor walked out of the corner of the city wall, and the soldier suddenly took out a brocade guard waist card from his waist and showed it to Yan Yingyuan.

"Hehe, Hou Ye's brocade guard is really extraordinary, and he even arranged manpower under the nose of this official, but I don't know what this young master has to do?" Yan Yingyuan's words were calm and teasing, and a little self-deprecating.

"My lord, the former Tun City has been broken, you are the commander of the old adult, and you can find a way to escape with the adult before leaving the city with a humble position!

The lowly is fluent in the Tatar language, and two sets of Tartar military uniforms have been prepared in the city, as long as you go down from this city wall, there is night protection, and the lowly is sure to take the adults out of the way, but the others ......"

Liang Kewang hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything.
