Three quarters of the hour, north line, Xinfeng Town.

At the meeting between Wang Yan and Haoge, the battle on the northern front had already begun, and the intersection of the battle was still Lingkou Town and Xinfeng Town.

In the area controlled by the Ming army in the former, only a rich man's dock fort in the town remained, and although the latter was all under the control of the Ming army, the situation was already precarious.

At this time, the rumbling cannons, the earth-shattering shouts of killing, stopped for a little midnight, and then sounded again in the early morning, and at this time, the two armies of Ming and Jin fought for the town for another half an hour.

Last night, fighting until midnight, Ruan Meimei was not easy to repel Zhao Liangdong's attack, early in the morning the Jin army rushed to the outside of the town, after a little formation, they overturned the Ming army's temporary antlers, and frantically charged into the town.

Nguyen Mei commanded the Ming army, and continued to shoot and suppress with artillery and firearms, but helplessly, this place was open around and the Jin army could attack from all sides, dispersing the defenders' firepower and strength, and the defenders needed to defend everywhere, and they were already a little tired of coping.

Although the Ming army sprinkled some thistle terrestris overnight and buried some "explosives", but not long after the war, the Jin army also rushed to the edge of the town, and the Ming army had a fierce battle.

The early morning wave of attacks was stopped, but the frustrated Jin army did not stop attacking, and after a short rest, they regrouped, and then launched another onslaught.

A bronze cannon in the town let out a roar, raising a cloud of white smoke, and a cannonball made a gap in the Jin army's front, but the Jin army did not stop, relying on the superiority of troops, attacking from all sides, and soon fell into hand-to-hand combat.

Ruan Mei led the defenders to support hard, but at this time, Meng Qiaofang led the army to arrive, and the already bad situation was even more difficult to support.

"Governor, it's not good, the brothers are running out of gunpowder, and a brigade of gold thieves is swarming from the north!" Nguyen Mei was commanding a small artillery bombardment, and a wounded officer of a thousand households stumbled over and reported loudly.

Ruan Mei's face was covered with gunsmoke, and there was a depression in the front of the iron helmet above his head, which was a projectile from the Jin Army that shot him in the head, almost killing him.

After being severely injured on the Korean battlefield, Nguyen My has been recuperating in Korea, and during his recovery from his injuries, it coincided with the rebellion of King Lu, and the Nguyen family, as a supporter of King Lu, was mostly exiled in Nanyang, and he was blessed by misfortune and escaped a catastrophe.

After recovering from his injury, he returned to Daming, and Wang Yan was not generous enough to reuse him immediately, in fact, he was idle for a long time.

As a general who has fought in the killing field, Ruan Mei really can't bear to be idle.

He misses very much the feeling of galloping on the battlefield with a horizontal sword, especially when he saw some junior generals, who also followed Wang Yan to participate in the Central Plains War and make contributions on the battlefield, and he could only engage in some small things, he inevitably felt lost and felt that he had not met Huaicai.

After that, the Northern Expedition recovered Shenjing, and the use of troops against Eastern Mongolia, naturally he did not have his share.

He was transferred from Xie Qian's deputy general to the local area to help train new soldiers in the military department, which was tantamount to a kind of exile.

This made him have little hope of returning to the battlefield, and it happened that Luzon sent a letter inviting him to Luzon to be an official, but he did not agree, but was disheartened and prepared to train as a new pawn in this way, and spend the rest of his life.

Coincidentally, at this time, the imperial court needed to expand the army by 200,000, the lack of talents, coupled with Wang Yanguang's restoration of Shenjing, after the destruction of the Qing Dynasty, his prestige was in full swing, his position was extremely solid, and the army had basically been reorganized, which was firmly in the hands of the imperial court, so there was no need to worry too much, someone shook his position, so Ruan Mei, who had passed the political test, was reactivated.

In this way, he was transferred back to the front line, and participated in the battle of gold cutting, he was very excited, so he personally received this task.

When he heard the alarm, he couldn't help but carry his sword and came to the north, but the scene in front of him was terrifying.

In the wilderness to the north, it has been covered with the golden army like the tide of the sea, and countless golden troops are overwhelmingly killing the town, and Xinfeng Town has not been able to hold out for long.

At this time, if Ruan Mei wants to break through, he still has a great chance of standing out.

Because the Jin army wanted Xinfeng Town, not the Ming army in the town, in the process of besiegement, the Jin army deliberately put only a small number of troops in the south, the purpose was to hope that the Ming army in the town could give up the town, so they left a chance to flee south.

But the Dufugou in the west has been lost, and half of the Lingkou Town in the east has been lost, most of them can't hold it, Xinfeng Town has become the most critical support point for the entire northern front of the Ming army, if Xinfeng Town is also lost, then Zhang Mingzhen even if he comes, it is estimated that he can't beat Meng Qiaofang.

Ruan Mei lifted the knife, looked at the sharp war knife, and then looked at the ant-like Jin army outside, he knew that he couldn't go, but this was the battlefield he had always wanted.

At this time, there was already a group of generals around him, Ruan Mei looked at the faces full of gunsmoke, and couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "The man should die in the border field, and the horse leather shrouded in corpse, not to mention that today is the cause of reunification, for the whole of my territory, and he will die as he deserves!" Ben will be determined to stop the gold thief here, you are all the generals of the Ming Dynasty, because you should make a last fight with Ben General, and you will also pull a few backs to die. ”

Hearing him say this, many military schools know that they can't go, the main general has this ambition, and the people below are helpless, not to mention that the Zhenwu army fought in eastern Zhejiang, independently supported the great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, entered the Yangtze River three times, fought in the north of the Yangtze River, and was indomitable, so he never admitted defeat.

An official of a thousand households stomped his feet and also let go, "Those who listen to the governor of their duties, on the Huangquan Road, there are brothers to accompany them, and they are not afraid of loneliness." ”

At this time, a large number of Jin reinforcements joined the attack, and the Jin army swarmed up, and soon someone climbed over the earthen wall built by the Ming army.

Many of the guards had resolute faces, gathered around Ruan Mei, and one by one clenched their swords, and the anger and resoluteness spread.

Ruan Mei looked at the Jin Jun who was attacking the town, and suddenly roared, "Kill thieves and serve the country!" ”

Many soldiers shouted frantically, brandishing their swords to meet the enemy troops who rushed into the town.

……

To the north of the town, under the banner of a Phnom Penh Daxu, Meng Qiaofang was watching with a clairvoyant mirror, and he saw that the Jin soldiers had already climbed over the wall and rushed into the town, and his face couldn't help but leak a smile.

At this moment, a messenger with a flag on his back suddenly galloped in front of Meng Qiaofang, then turned over and dismounted, and knelt on one knee, "King Qiqi, the king thief has attacked the front defense line of our army in a big way, Your Majesty ordered the king to quickly attack south, break through the northern flank of the Ming thief, and attack the king thief's middle army!" ”

Meng Qiaofang put away the clairvoyant mirror and waved his hand arrogantly, "Tell Your Majesty that the soldiers of Yanchang Town, Tongzhou Town, and Jingyuan Town will not disappoint Your Majesty, and this king is bound to break the king thief!" ”

Many Jin army generals and colonels, hearing the words of the main general, couldn't help but boil their blood and their faces were full of fighting spirit.

"The humble post must convey the words of the prince to His Majesty!" When the messenger heard this, he clasped his fists and saluted, then turned on his horse and walked away.

Meng Qiaofang retracted his gaze, looked at the battlefield not far away, and sneered: "The king thief has been dominating the world for more than ten years, and there are few defeats, but how can there be so many victorious generals in the world, today this king wants to see whether the king thief breaks the front first and rescues the 50,000 thieves in Lintong, or this king and the king of Shu break his wings first!" ”

"It must be the prince who breaks the king thief first!" Many golden generals are full of pride and raise their arms in response.

Meng Qiaofang nodded with satisfaction, and was about to whip the command to increase the troops and take Xinfeng Town as soon as possible, when several sentry riders suddenly rushed to the front of him, dismounted and reported: "Lord Qiqi, the Ming thief reinforcements broke through the barrier of our army's scouts, and the first thief Zhang Mingzhen is coming north!" ”

Meng Qiaofang frowned slightly when he heard this, and suspended the increase of troops, but he was not flustered, and after thinking for a while, he waved his horse whip and ordered: "Order all battalions to line up on the spot, and then order the horse army to prepare. ”
