The sound of cannons and screams reached Li Guo's ears, but since he witnessed Wang Dou's bravery in the night attack, he was already afraid of Wang Dou, and now he thought that there might be an ambush, and he didn't dare to order the troops to attack.

This is the difference between him and the famous general, it seems that he has won a lot of battles, the Ming Empire is about to be captured by him, but he is still not a famous general, in fact, he has a lot of people under his command now, definitely above 20,000 people, or even more, Wang Dou's peripheral strangulation and artillery attack, in fact, did not kill many people, although it seems to have suffered heavy losses, but in fact, all units are still intact and basically intact, if Li Guo immediately enters the assault at this time, it may not have a few chances of winning.

However, due to Li Guo's timidity, the opportunity to fight back was soon lost.

Because I witnessed that a few military formations sent out to test were quickly shattered by Wang Dou, after several temptations, these people's legs were weak, most of them were actually Ming troops surrendered, and it was no problem to fight a tailwind battle, but let them fight to the death? How could they be so brave? If you have the courage to do this, you won't surrender in the first place!

Most of them are not afraid of going to war, so they surrendered, and now, the person is still the same person, and the time has not passed for long, and they will not change people because they have fought a few smooth battles with Li Zicheng.

Although they knew that they couldn't win, they wouldn't disperse in a hurry, because at this time, Li Guo had already ordered the old battalion soldiers to come up and supervise the battle!

Li Guo's people will not be soft when they kill people, although they do not have the posture of famous generals, but Li Guo and others also have a bit of courage, they can't fight, but they won't surrender like these Ming troops, they can still defend the city, although this is just a village, but it is enough to defend against cavalry attacks, this place Li Guo was originally prepared to defend against the Ming army reinforcements that may come.

This is an overall construction according to the goal of defending against the attack of tens of thousands of troops, but I have not yet become accustomed to firearms, and I did not expect the enemy to attack with firearms.

So be cautious, the enemy is so cunning, there must be an ambush, and you must wait until the reinforcements from the big battalion arrive.

But when will the reinforcements arrive? Although Li Guo looked in a very safe place at this time, his heart was full of a sense of crisis!

If there is danger on his side, Li Zicheng will definitely come to the rescue, but he is afraid that someone will make an obstacle from it, in this regard, Li Guo has already planned, which is also the reason why he is unwilling to take out his elite soldiers to fight.

I folded a lot last time, and this time at the breaking point, what capital can I have to fight for the throne of Dashun?

The only few horses were sent out early to ask for help, in the face of a fierce general like Wang Dou, the infantry is not good, it must be the cavalry, Li Guo also sent people to the north to see what is the situation of Liu Zongmin now?

In case, if Liu Zongmin was killed without even reporting the letter, he would have to quickly consider retreating to Shanxi or even Shaanxi.

……

In the big camp, in fact, I also felt that something was wrong today, and Li Zicheng was too anxious! He was not anxious because of the lack of military rations, but because Li Guo had not moved for a long time.

An order had already been handed down, saying that a general attack was launched at the same time, but the south met together to launch it, while the north side did not move, which also greatly affected the offensive and gave the city a gap to adjust the defending generals.

After all, they are still recruits, and in the face of the attack on all the enemies, the pressure is also very high, and even Yang Yi is preparing to give up the outer city.

However, there was no movement on the north wall, but it made Yang Yi understand that Wang Dou was probably making a contribution this time, and in the original plan, there was a plan for the south or the north, and after leaving the city, it would depend on where Wang Dou chose.

It seems that Li Guo's department in the north was selected, which also gave the reserves placed in the north to be transferred to other sections of the city wall to defend against Li Zicheng's surprise attack.

At this time, Li Zicheng's department really lived up to its reputation, as soon as it came up, it was a fierce attack, and the city was a little overwhelmed at this time.

Fortunately, there is a new force withdrawn from the north to replenish it, which makes the various departments defending the city relieved, these days ago are the most dangerous, after all, most of the young people who have just been trained have never seen blood, and their combat effectiveness is very reluctant.

After the baptism of the battlefield, these people will quickly degenerate and gradually become a qualified soldier, and the longer they defend the city, the more stable the city will become.

Li Zicheng didn't know the level of danger in the city, but he didn't know that if he fought with all his might today, he would probably have a huge success!

But without Li Guo's department, the plan to attack on all sides will fail, and if today's opportunity is lost, it will only be more and more difficult in the future!

Fought until noon, seeing that the defense in the city was getting more and more strict, like in the morning, there were still people who could rush to the city and get the name of the first to ascend, but at noon, it was difficult to approach even the head of the city, Li Zicheng had to let people fire the trumpet cannon at this time, and at the same time sent people to Li Guo to convey the military order.

But a series of more than ten waves were sent out, and there still seemed to be no movement over there, and there was no messenger to report back!

What was Li Guo thinking? Why don't you send troops to attack the city? Is something wrong?

At this time, Li Zicheng finally felt that something was wrong, Li Guo was not such a selfish person, although he was named a nephew, in fact, Li Guo was a few years older than him, and he was very stable, especially Li Laiheng was still with him.

This signal to Li Guo is very clear, as long as there are no accidents, Dashun Kingdom will be Li Guo in the future, and Li Laiheng will be the emperor's grandson, so there is no need to consider whether Li Guo will rebel, there is no such possibility, then it can only be a problem.

Just when Li Zicheng ordered the horse to investigate, a blood-stained Dashun soldier was carried and galloped over, or Gao Yigong personally brought it, and was blocked ten steps before Li Zicheng's horse, Gao Yigong waved his horsewhip at this time, and those who stood in the way were driven away, and he took people forward.

"Your Majesty, when I was inspecting the northern defense, I rescued a messenger, saying that the Marquis of Bo was raided by the enemy's cavalry this morning, and now it is besieged, please send cavalry to reinforce it quickly!"

Besieged by cavalry? Donnu? Guanning Iron Ride? Mongol?

Li Zicheng was a little reluctant to believe this information, seeing that the messenger was panting less and less, and he couldn't ask any news at all, but the current battle situation couldn't help but hesitate.

The frontal attack has been attacking for three consecutive days, and I thought that the city might not be able to withstand it, but if a huge offensive is launched from the flank, then as long as one side is broken, at least it will be no problem to break the outer city of the capital.

However, this originally planned offensive was thwarted before it began, and only two of the three sides launched an offensive, and the north did not launch an attack for a long time, and now it is known that the north is actually besieged!

This is bad news, Li Guo has more than 30,000 people, how many troops are needed to besiege him, not to mention, Liu Zongmin is in the north with tens of thousands of cavalry, could it be that Liu Zongmin's entire army is annihilated?

How is this possible? Li Zicheng thought of this question and was a little scared!

However, he still gritted his teeth, and pulled out the last few thousand cavalry from the remaining cavalry to the north to reinforce and let Gao Yigong lead the team.

There are not many generals in the army, basically they are relatives, Gao Yigong is Li Zicheng's wife Gao Guiying's younger brother, and he can be regarded as Dashun's uncle, so he is naturally relieved, and told Gao Yigong to be optimistic about the situation, and if there is a problem, bring someone back first.

Li Zicheng already has the mind to withdraw the army!

"General Wang, a large group of cavalry has appeared from the southwest, and it seems that Li Zicheng's battalion has only now gotten the news!" Wang Dou was still leading the cavalry to kill Li Guo at this time, in fact, he hadn't killed anyone for a long time, Li Guo had become a shrunken turtle, and at this time all the turtles were cowering in the village they built, and the elite cavalry sent by Wang Dou to intercept and kill the messenger suddenly came back at this time and reported a bad news.

Although it was already noon, and the haze on the battlefield should have cleared up long ago, the artillery attack had not stopped, and the village where Li Guo was stationed was surrounded by gunsmoke and could not be seen clearly.

"General, the last general is invited to fight!" There is no shortage of warriors around Wang Dou, after all, this is a specially selected team, most of which have been strengthened by the "Life and Death Talisman", and they haven't moved much today, and everyone still feels full of energy!

Wang Dou's face was dark and swarthy at this time, this was his skin color, and at this time, he didn't see any expression on his unsmiling face, just nodded: "Go, take your cavalry to attack!" Remember, you must rush to the end and don't look back! ”

"No!" The general answered at this time, Wang Dou ordered a few people to lead the team to follow him, he estimated that the number of cavalry was not much, so he had no idea of shooting, he took more than 1,000 horsemen, still monitored the movement of Li Guo's department, and allocated 2,000 horsemen to attack the enemy's reinforcements.

"There is cannon fire in the north of the city!"

Gao Yigong, who led the team to help, was very careful, he saw a lot of dead bodies on the way, he knew that these were messengers, he didn't care about this side this morning, after all, thinking that Li Guo was here with more than 30,000 horses, this area should be fine, but he didn't expect that there would be enemies interspersed here, if there were many people, it would be bad to directly attack the besieging army in the morning! Fortunately, when the battle was stopped at noon, he took the cavalry to inspect and save the messenger, only to know that there was a problem on Li Guo's side, he took the war horse and said with a solemn face:

"Quick!" Gao Yigong's lieutenant said with a wave of his hand.

The three thousand elite horsemen immediately rushed in the direction pointed by Gao Yigong, and in the distance, they could already see several scouts dressed in the Ming army in the distance running at full speed.

At this time, suddenly a large group of Ming cavalry rushed towards their side, and after meeting with those Ming scouts, those scouts also rushed towards their own side at this time.

Such a brave Ming army is rare, and at this time, Gao Yigong felt a murderous aura, from those Ming soldiers who rushed over, but his past prejudices made him ignore this murderous aura.

The Ming army cannot fight, this is the consensus of the Dashun army, and it is also the impression given to them by the performance of the Ming army in the past few years.

"Fight!"

Gao Yigong gave an order at this time, and the Ming army who greeted him shouted, all he brought was Li Chuangjun's old battalion, all of them were elite, and like him, he didn't take the Ming army in his eyes, and there may be people in the Ming army who can fight, but it is generally only a wave of charge.

The cavalry on both sides quickly raised their spears and charged at full speed at this time, and the two cavalry collided together in more than ten seconds.

Gao Yigong, who was wearing two layers of armor, grabbed the oncoming spear at this time, and then swept the enemy on the opposite side with a knife while grabbing the spear, but that's all, because he was not at the forefront, he was also the general of the Dashun army, and he had already passed the class that had to lead the charge, and when the enemy hit him, it proved that his army had been penetrated by the enemy for nearly half.

This happened in an instant, Gao Yigong didn't have time to react, he saw the soldiers of the old battalion in front of him fall one by one, and he only had time to kill a Ming knight who charged in front of him.

And the soldiers of the old battalion on both sides of him did not have his reflexes, and were directly pierced by the enemy's spear and fell to the ground, and by the way, the spear that Gao Yigong was holding at this time did not let go, and the other spear reached his chest, stabbing him off the horse and being nailed to death by a Ming cavalry spear.

The Ming army was so powerful and so brave that the morale of the Dashun army that was charging in the rear dropped suddenly, and the uncle of the country was broken, and this battle was won, and it was impossible to escape, so many people hesitated.

This is also because the people in Gao Yigong's belt are too familiar, most of these people are extremely familiar with him in the north and south, and this is the problem, if other generals are killed by the enemy, the soldiers will not care too much, and the war always has to die.

But Gao Yigong is different, this is Dashun's uncle Guo, how can he die like this, even if this battle is won, and Uncle Guo is dead, it can be regarded as a loss, or the kind of defeat!!

As soon as morale fell, everyone hesitated; And most of these soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have been strengthened by Yang Yi's "life and death talisman", and the overall strength of the individual has not improved much, but for the emotional aspect, it has gone through some brainwashing, once they fall into killing, then they will lose part of their sanity, which is a disadvantage, but sometimes it is an advantage!

The era of cold weapons is to a large extent morale, the level of cavalry equipment training on both sides is about the same, these Ming troops are even better, they are all hereditary military households, their ancestors have been professional soldiers for generations, this area of the capital is not the south of peace, Chongzhen has been bypassed the Shanhaiguan many times since the beginning of the second year to enter the customs and plunder, the guards here have not abandoned the training, not to mention them the Beijing battalion soldiers in the capital, the treatment is better, the physical condition is better, it can be said that they are not without the ability to attack the enemy, It's just that I didn't have the courage before, but now, after losing my mind, I can show my true strength.
