The fog gradually dissipated, completely exposing the Ming Dynasty and Jianlu to the eyes of both parties.
The war is still going on, for two full hours, there is still no sign of stopping.
Zhou Zheng has always refused to let the'preparation' come up, only five thousand people are struggling to guard the Anding Gate.
Mangui was relatively relaxed, Jianlu didn't get much cheaper, but Zhou Zheng was in danger here, as if it would collapse at any time, becoming the weakness of the north gate of the capital.
The adults in the capital are always paying attention to the movement of the north gate. Seeing this situation, they can't bear it, and waited in a panic.
"Zhou Xun press, General Manchu comes to ask if he wants his support." A man Gui soldier came to Jiange and asked Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng held a knife in his left hand, and said in a flat tone: "Tell the man, I can hold it, and ask him not to worry."
The soldier glanced at Andingmen, which seemed to be defeated in the next moment, did not say much, agreed and left quickly.
After a while, Cao Bianjiao ran over again and said, "My lord, I can't hold it anymore, please send troops to support it."
"Stay a little longer, I will transfer two thousand people up." Zhou Zhengdao.
Cao Bianjiao replied with a solemn voice, and turned to continue resisting the prisoners. Rush to the front, slashing a long knife desperately.
Zhou Zheng looked not far away, the army of 20,000 soldiers who had not moved, his face sinking like water, he suddenly called Chu Jin and whispered a few words in his ear.
Chu Jin looked hesitant, still raised his hand and said, "Yes, let's go after the official."
This battle lasted until dusk, and Andingmen was crumbling, but it was never breached, but Jianlu seemed to have eaten his heart, and even if the offensive was weak, he still refused to give up.
Cao Bianjiao ran over again and looked at Zhou Zheng anxiously: "My lord, I really can't hold it anymore. When will your reinforcements come up?"
Zhou Zheng looked up at the sky, then looked at the declining offensive army, waved his hand.
The two thousand people who were ready to go under the wall quickly rushed up to fill the vacancy on the wall.
With reinforcements, the momentum of the Ming army on Andingmen suddenly lifted, struggling to repel the attacking captives.
Cao Bianjiao looked at him, his confidence increased, and he continued to howl with a hoarse voice.
At the rear of the Jianluo army, Amin looked at Yue Tuo with an ugly face and laughed and said, "You can't hold a small gate, and you still don't withdraw it. I will teach you how to attack the city tomorrow!"
Yue Tuo didn't expect that Mingren's capital was so difficult to attack, he would have to win it several times, but he didn't attack it!
He looked ugly, glanced at Amin, and then at Hauge.
Hauge sat on the horse and said, "This Andingmen, I want it, and I will see it tomorrow!"
Amin sneered and didn't care, and said: "I want to show Huang Taiji, he is still far short of his achievements in battle!"
This sentence made Hauge and Yue Tuo's eyes sink.
Although Amin and Huang Taiji used to be the Big Four Baylors, Huang Taiji was already sweating, and Amin still couldn't turn around. Just as he was rude to Huang Taiji in the past, he just opened his mouth to come, even more unscrupulous than before!
When it was about to get dark, Jianlu finally retreated, leaving a mess outside the city gate.
Upstairs, Zhou Zheng sighed quietly.
Cao Bianjiao was standing on the city wall, wiping blood from his face, and a smile appeared on his face. This is the first time he has taken on a major task and successfully defended the city gate!
He smiled and turned to look at Zhou Zheng in the Arrow Pavilion.
The surviving soldiers also laughed, holding on to each other, holding on to the city wall, and smiling hard at the bleak sunset.
The gate was kept, and the happiest thing was the big people in the city.
Chongzhen heard the sound of war drums disappearing outside the city, and felt relieved. He looked at Wang Chengen, who had been standing in front of him, and said, "Is it right that there is nothing wrong with this?"
Wang Chengen didn't understand military affairs, so he hesitated and said, "Long live, you can ask Shen Shangshu to ask."
Chongzhen said: "That's not hurry to go!"
Wang Chengen responded and quickly went to find someone in person.
Shen Yongmao was going to the North Gate, but when he heard Chongzhen's summons, he hurried over.
Chongzhen sat on the chair and couldn't wait to say: "How is it? Has Jianlu retired?"
Shen Yongmao was stunned when he looked at Chongzhen, knowing that he was afraid, and quickly soothed: "Your Majesty, Jianlu has not retired yet, but he has worked hard, then declines, and is exhausted. The capital is already intact, so there is no need to worry about it."
Chongzhen listened, although a little disappointed, but finally settled down, nodded lightly, and said: "Okay, pass the decree, reward all the guards of the city!"
Shen Yongmao responded, and then said: "Your Majesty, Jianlu still has 40,000 troops outside, Man Gui, Zhou Zheng wants some support."
Chongzhen immediately said: "When is it all, what they want, give them all."
Shen Yongmao hesitated for a moment, and said, "First, they want more arrows, armor, and swordsmen. Second, they want the mighty general."
The so-called Shenwei General, that is, artillery.
Chongzhen naturally knew this, and frowned upon hearing it.
This thing can kill the enemy to the outside, but if you turn around, you can directly attack the palace.
Shen Yongmao knew the embarrassment of this matter, not only Chongzhen was embarrassed, but if the officials knew about it, he would definitely not agree. When the time comes, the entire capital must be exploded with the sound of cannons.
Although Shen Yongmao knew that Zhou Zheng's request was correct and the court should also give it to him, the risk was too great!
Chongzhen's expression changed for a while, and he said in a deep voice: "Tell the Ministry of Industry, to immediately assign Man Gui, Zhou Zheng! You tell Man Gui, Zhou Zheng, you must keep it for me!"
Seeing that the emperor had such courage, Shen Yongmao was determined to raise his hand and said solemnly: "Chen Zunzhi!"
Shen Yongmao quickly went out of the palace, arranging all the things Zhou Zheng wanted, and sending them to the north gate to Man Gui and Zhou Zheng.
Shen Yongmao watched the soldiers loading cannons, and whispered to Zhou Zheng: "You have to think about it clearly. The entire capital will be frightened when the cannon is fired. Regardless of the facts, the police officers will not let you go. of."
Zhou Zheng naturally calculated the consequences a long time ago, and said, "Thank you, my lord, for dealing with it."
Shen Yongmao sighed softly and said, "You can defend the city without worry, no matter what, I will block for you in the future, and some adults will also speak, so I won't be too embarrassed."
Zhou Zheng didn't want to say more about this, and said, "My lord, is there anything going on in Jizhou?"
Shen Yongmao looked solemn, frowned, glanced around, and said in a low voice: "Jizhou is safe, Master Yuan has sent Zhao Ledjiao back to support, and I ordered him to hide in Tongzhou, no one else knows. "
Zhou Zheng's heart moved slightly. Obviously, this Shen Shangshu had other plans.
He didn't ask too much, and said, "There are no problems in the other courses, right?"
Shen Yongmao said: "There are only 40,000 men who have come to the army. They must take the capital as soon as possible, and they will not divide their troops to encircle them, otherwise the night will be long and dreamy."
Zhou Zheng nodded lightly, building the captives without sufficient food and grass. He won't last long, and there won't be too many tricks. He will only break through the North Gate in one go and take the capital completely.
Only in this way can the Jiankui be able to reverse their disadvantages and save their national fortune. (End of this chapter)
