Soon, the four cities were covered with Liaodong troops holding guns. The Hongyi cannons, general guns, and big guns were all aimed at the Houjin army outside the city.

Guerrilla Liu Shiying participated in the Battle of Ningjin in the past. In that battle, the commander-in-chief Zhao led the army to defeat the Jiannu army with cannons and firecrackers. There are more than [-] cannons, and there are more than a hundred general cannons and large guns. Compared with the defenders in Jinzhou, this firepower is much stronger.In Liu Shiying's view, it was impossible for Jiannu to break in.Therefore, he was full of confidence, and kept patrolling the top of the city with his saber in hand, cheering up the soldiers:

"Brothers, don't panic, let alone be afraid. Our city is strong and powerful, and the Tartars have no ability to attack the city. If they come, you can attack their high officials. As long as they injure their high officials, the Tartars will be killed." I will retreat without a fight!"

"If the Tartars are approaching, you fire your guns. If the Tartars want to retreat, just leave him alone. Back and forth a few times, the Tartars will not dare to approach our city..." [

At the unfinished gap in the northern city, more than 3000 civilians were nervously carrying stones there.Every time he handed over a piece of his head, he would involuntarily look towards the Jinying camp outside the city. Every time he glanced at it, his heart would beat violently, for fear that Jiannu would attack the city right in front of him.Fortunately, Jiannu had just arrived and was busy setting up camp, so he didn't attack the city right away.

In the entire Dalinghe City, there are 600 Liaodong Army of the ancestral tribe, 4000 civilian husbands and more than [-] civilians who are family members of the army.

After the discovery at dawn, the Jin army besieged the city, and all the soldiers and civilians in the city were mobilized. The difference is that in the past, there was a lot of people, but today the city is full of silence.

Everything is done with sound.

Whether it's a soldier, a civilian, or an official, the palms of your hands are full of sweat.

Everyone was looking out of the city nervously, the dark golden camp gave people a sense of stagnation.

Waiting is suffering, everyone is waiting.

Just after a quarter of the hour, the golden camp outside the city finally blew the horns.

Hearing the sound of the horn, everyone in Dalinghe City didn't feel scared, but breathed a sigh of relief: It's finally here!

.........

When everyone on the top of the city thought that the Houjin army was about to attack the city, they were surprised to find that the slave cavalry who rushed out of the Jin camp with the sound of horns did not come to attack the city, but were three miles away. stop.

After a while, tens of thousands of captive Han people were driven out of the camp by Jiannu, and Haogou began to be dug where those Jiannu cavalry were.

Digging was being done on all sides in the southeast, northwest, and as far as I could see from the top of the city, I saw that the shovel kept swinging down, and the excavated soil was quickly transported away by several long dragons.In the blink of an eye, deep ditches appeared in front of the defenders at the top of the city.

If you observe carefully, you will find that in the south of the city, that is, the direction close to Jinzhou, the trench dug by Jiannu is obviously wider and deeper than the other three sides.

Liu Liangchen, the general in charge, saw that the Jin army was digging trenches aggressively, and he wondered: "What is Mrs. Hong trying to do? Could it be that they want to trap us to death? It doesn't make sense. We are only [-] miles away from Jinzhou, and reinforcements are just around the corner. To, how could they really trap us in the city?"

Hearing Liu Liangchen's doubts, He Kegang who was standing behind Zu Dashou couldn't help but look back at him, and said in a deep voice, "If the reinforcements are blocked, we will really be trapped to death."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Zu Dashou and said, "Commander Zu, Mrs. Hong is really well versed in the art of war. This man is really clever in using troops. First he made a false shot so that we wouldn't be on our guard. Now he is digging deep ditches outside the city. It is clearly intended to trap us, but in fact it is the idea of ​​getting our reinforcements. It is powerful, it is powerful. Liaodong's elite are all in our place, and Jinzhou is empty. If we want to save us, the only way to save us is to send troops from the closed door. That way For one thing, Mrs. Hong is just waiting for work, if our reinforcements lose, I'm afraid I'm going to be trapped to death."

After finishing speaking, Zu Dacheng, Zu Dashou's younger brother, said with concern: "There is only enough food and grass in the city for more than a month. If we let him dig it down, what will we do in a month? Are we really going to be trapped and die of starvation?" Brother, in my opinion, it’s better for us to immediately recruit elite soldiers and rush out from the south gate, leaving aside other directions, just not allowing Jianu to dig the trench to the south, otherwise, we will really be birds in a cage.”

Zu Dashou's youngest brother, Guerzilla Zu Daming, heard that the third brother wanted to go out of the city to prevent Jiannu from digging ditches, so he agreed, "Yes, we can't let them dig the ditch well, otherwise, even if the reinforcements arrive, we won't be able to leave the city." Respond." [

Hearing the words of the two uncles, Zu Zerun was startled, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Third uncle, fourth uncle, there are tens of thousands of Jian slaves outside the city, and we only have more than 1 horses in total, and we have to guard four cities." , at most 5000 soldiers who can leave the city, I'm afraid they can't stop Jiannu. If there is a mistake with these [-] troops, the city will be even more difficult to defend. According to my nephew, we will guard in the city. It is impossible in Jinzhou Those who don’t send reinforcements, when the reinforcements arrive, it won’t be too late for us to leave the city.”

"Reinforcement?" Zu Dacheng smiled wryly, "Is there anyone in Liaodong who can fight besides us?"

Zu Zerun reminded: "Third Uncle, don't forget Uncle, Uncle and the others also have a lot of people. If they know that we are surrounded, they will definitely come to rescue us."

Zu Zerun said that his uncle is Wu Xiang, the general of Liaodong, but his uncle is the deputy general Pei Guozhen. These two men also have five or six thousand Guanning cavalry.

Zu Dacheng nodded: "They can fight, but their strength is too small. There are tens of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers outside the city. One or two banners can prevent them from approaching the Daling River. It is a drop in the bucket, and there is no hope. To say If you really want to count on reinforcements, you can only hope that Jinglue will transfer troops from the closed door."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zu Dashou suddenly raised his arm and shouted: "Don't forget the reinforcements, we have to rely on ourselves for this battle!" Turning his head to face the generals, he looked at them one by one, "This commander wants to go out of the city to stop the Jin army Dig a trench to trap me, who dares to fight with me!"

"I dare!"

Guerrilla Gao Guanghui was the first to respond with a bang.

All the generals present were brought out by Zu Dashou, and now that Zu Dashou was going out of the city to fight, naturally they all responded.Even Zu Zerun, who was deeply afraid of Jiannu, stood in front of his father with a face full of fear.

The generals were frightened, Zu Dashou was very satisfied, he didn't say much, and said "After half an hour, follow me to fight." Then he turned and went down the city.

…………

Half an hour later, the south gate of Daling River was slowly opened.A group of generals in distinctive armor rode out first, followed by five thousand Guanning cavalry.

Jinying on the opposite side discovered that after the Ming army in the city left the city, they did not send troops to stop them, but sent orders to retreat slowly.

Lieutenant General Liu Tianlu felt that something was wrong, and wanted to remind Zu Dashou that there was something wrong with building slaves, so he heard the loud sound of Hongyi cannons coming from the opposite side. Before he could react, two cannons exploded in the crowd not far behind.

Immediately, dozens of riders were blown up, and the rest of the horses were frightened, and the team was in chaos.

"It's Hongyi Cannon!"

When he heard the sound of the cannon, Zu Dashou knew that it was the sound of the Hongyi Pao, and he was more surprised: When did Jiannu have the Hongyi Pao!

Without allowing him to think too much, two more cannonballs landed in the crowd, killing and wounding hundreds of soldiers.

The team had just left the city, before they fought against the Jin army, they lost a hundred riders, Zu Dashou was horrified.

Looking up, he saw the two flags of Jinying Zhengbai and Xiangbai waving on the opposite side, and thousands of golden cavalry came to the city in two directions.

Zu Dashou was shocked, and his side was in chaos. At this time, in the battle, there were more defeats than victories.

Gritting his teeth to send an order: "Withdraw! Withdraw to the city!" [

Hearing the retreat, He Kegang was a little unwilling, and immediately raised his arms and shouted at Zu Dashou: "Zu Shuai, if you retreat now, you may go out of the city again! I hope Zu Shuai thinks twice!"

"Hold on and wait for help!"

After finishing speaking, Zu Dashou turned his horse's head, beat the horse and returned to the city.

Seeing this, He Kegang, Zhang Cunren, Gao Guanghui, Liu Shiying, Sheng Zhong and other Liaodong generals sighed deeply and led their troops back to the city.
