Li Yuanjiang took over the east gate of Dongyu City. While sending people to guard the gate, he arranged heavy troops to snatch the two gates in the west and north.
The defenders at the west and north gates were ravaged by Ming Army artillery outside the city for a long time, and now they were taken back by the Ming Army. They saw that the Ming Army had entered the city, and they had given up their resistance psychologically. The military flintlock drove out of the city.
The Sixtieth Division and the 59th Division have merged in the city, and everything is exactly the same as Lin Chengxiang's design.
Li Yuanjiang and Sun Ke did not rest. Instead, they searched the city during the night. They divided the soldiers into regiments as usual and surrendered the remaining defenders in the city.
Although there are thousands of Dongyu Army, the city is full of the sound of flintlocks, and the message of a large number of Ming troops entering the city makes people panic. Even the defender Wu Yanzu could not gather his soldiers, only hundreds of soldiers surrounded him. Around.
The soldiers of Tongyu began to flee towards the city gate, trying to escape out of the city, but the three gates in the east, west, and north were guarded by Ming troops. Every time they entered the city, they would drop large corpses and then retreat in despair.
The people in the city were also in panic. They were behind the soldiers and wanted to escape from the city under the protection of the soldiers. But every time they met the Ming army defending the city, a lightly-clad Dongyu soldier fled quickly, and was finally caught The flintlocks of the Ming army were fired by these people who were dragging their families.
The soldiers and civilians of Dongyu in the city are like flies in the glass house. They can see the future clearly and find no way out.
Only the Han people were warned in advance that they stayed behind closed doors one by one, and would never come out to take a peek at the excitement, even if the shouts were loud and blood was flowing into the river.
There was no Da Ming defender at the Nancheng Gate, and in the end Dongyu soldiers and civilians in the city came out.
Tongyu soldiers wrapped the people in the city and began to flee from the Nancheng Gate. Even Wu Yanzu was also preparing to flee south from the Nancheng Gate.
"General, this is obviously the Ming army's method of "surrounding three queasy", and there must be a Ming army ambush outside the city."
Wu Yanzu glanced at the entourage around him, he didn't think of the ambush of the Ming army, "But, besides going out of the city, do we have a choice?"
"General, knowing that there are ambushes outside the city, shall we go out of the city?"
Wu Yanzu smiled bitterly, "Stay in the city, we have only two paths, either surrender or be killed by the Ming army. Can we resist to the end under the current situation?" He looked at the hundreds of guards in the district, and he thought early in his heart. The pride of yesterday is gone.
"General..."
Wu Yanzu waved his hand and prevented his entourage from speaking, "What if there are no ambushes outside the city? Besides, even if there are ambushes, we are psychologically prepared, maybe we can escape some people at night."
"General, the subordinates suggest that we should not start, let the rebels and the people in the city start, and we will find a way to break through according to the gunshots of the Ming army?"
"That's not bad. We set off immediately, after leaving the South City Gate, with our tail behind, looking for the weak spots of the Ming Army." Wu Yanzu waved, and hundreds of guards followed him out of the South City Gate.
There are already a large number of Tonggu soldiers and civilians outside the city. The soldiers ran fast and were all in front of the line. Although the people gave up their heavy possessions when they left the city, most of them dragged their families and fell behind the line. At the end are Wu Yanzu and his guards.
Outside the south gate of Dongyu City, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians fled, it is more lively than going to the market, but the soldiers and civilians are not calm, they all have different moods.
The people are mostly in panic. Leaving Tongyu, they will lose all their land. They don’t know how to survive in the future. In fact, how to survive tonight is the biggest suspense in their hearts. They are behind the soldiers. Only the soldiers of Toungoo can give them a little comfort.
Toungoo soldiers were also shrouded in fear. Leaving the South Gate, they looked like fish swimming in the sea and wolves in the grassland. They immediately restored their original minds.
Soldiers in groups of three or five took the initiative to carry heavy objects for the people behind them, and even helped women hold their children.
At the southeast corner of these soldiers, a group of seven or eight soldiers, while fleeing, looked back and forth, and the two soldiers on the outermost side were walking and talking about their thoughts.
"Brother, where are you going to escape?"
"Leaving Tongyu, how can there be a fixed place? Hey, take one step and look one step at a time!"
"Brother didn't think about the future?"
"Brother..."
"Hahaha..."
"What's your plan, brother?"
"Brother, don't ask me, tell me, what are you looking at?"
"Brother... Brother, I am attracted to the old man behind me. Although he is old, his clothes are glamorous, and the box in his hand is heavy. There should be... there should be a lot of yellow and white things."
"Brother has good eyesight, I thought brother was a dull man."
"Say me, what is your brother's plan? My brother is not going to run away empty-handed?"
"Sure enough, he's a good brother, he understands me," he turned his head slightly, pointing to the stumbling crowd in the night, "see you? That's our wealthy businessman. I told you, brother, don't fight with me. "
"How could I move my brother's prey? But... Since I am an acquaintance, how can you do it? What if he remembers you?"
"Stupid, brother? Can this kind of thing leave its roots?"
"Brother mean..."
"Now the army is in turmoil, and the people are dead..."
"Brother..."
"Don’t hide my brother, the reason why I retreated is not just for him, there is also a lady in the neighborhood... Once there is chaos, my brother will..."
"Ah... Congratulations, brother first, brother, I will also rush to find one, the Ming army is really timely, such a dark sky, the girl who doesn't need money..., speaking of the girl, the brothers are almost drooling."
"Then brother, go, it's someone else's late."
"The brother is going first, see you later..."
…
The sound of footsteps alarmed the Ming army outside the city.
Lu Yufeng's 58th Division had been hiding in a depression five miles outside the Nancheng Gate. This was the last line of defense for the Ming Army.
Lin Chengxiang’s order to Lu Yufeng was to let no one of Toungoo’s soldiers be spared. It was still dark now, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a soldier or a civilian. He had already issued the order: Don’t let a Dongkuo off, if Dare to attack the Ming army's position, let alone kill!
The people were deep and shallow. The darkness gave them a way to escape and added many factors of terror. Wu Yanzu, who was at the back of the line, thought he had made a mistake, "Is there no ambush of the Ming army outside the city? The Ming army will give us. Leave an escape route?"
The happiest people are the soldiers of Tongyu. As long as they leave the city of Tongyu, they will be their world.
There is still some time before dawn, and they have to look for more two-legged sheep.
They were grateful to the Ming army in their hearts. If the Ming army did not come to attack the city, they would never have such a chance. If the Ming army came to Toungoo earlier, they would not have to be a battlefield cutter for these years.
"Damn..." In the darkness, a Tongyu soldier stroked the long scar on his face and cursed in a low voice.
"Boom... Long..."
"Boom... Long..."
"Boom... Long..."
…
The Ming army’s mountain artillery fired. The mountain artillery was small, light, and easy to carry. Lu Yufeng carried a total of ten mountain artillery. It was hard to see the number of Toungoo soldiers in the dark.
The sound of the artillery shattered the dreams of the Dongyu soldiers. Even Wu Yanzu was shocked. What was even more alarmed was the people of Dongyu who had just escaped from the Ming army’s flintlock guns and caught up with the Ming army’s artillery.
The older people who dragged their children could no longer walk. They could only sit on the ground in despair.
The Toungoo soldiers at the front were stunned at first, but they woke up and fled to both sides. It was impossible for the Ming army to set up an iron barrel formation outside the entire Nancheng gate.
They temporarily forgot the money and the maidens in the hands of the people. In the face of death, everything is a burden.
The desperate people still followed closely behind the soldiers of Dongyu, except for the soldiers' backs, they really couldn't find a safe haven.
"boom."
"boom."
"boom."
…
The sound of flintlocks pushed Tongyu soldiers into the abyss of despair. The Ming army did not leave them a way out!
After desperation, the Dongyu soldiers calmed down instead. Since the Ming army did not give them a way to survive, how could they have to pull back before they died, "Damn, fight with the Ming army!"
With the leading soldiers, the soldiers from behind followed, and they swooped to the side of the Ming army, hoping to break through a path of hope, even if they could not break through, they would have to fight off a few Ming army.
There is no command from an officer, no follow-up reinforcements, no accurate information from the Ming army, and no applause from the people.
A small group of Dongyu soldiers, brandishing their scimitars, rushed to the Ming army's defensive position without hesitation.
Maybe they knew that it was moths throwing fire, but they had no retreat, and the Ming army did not give them a chance to escape.
In the darkness, the soldiers of the Ming Army felt the vibration of the earth. They could only use the faint light of the flintlock to see the indistinct shadow in front. The bullets of the flintlock were all aiming at the shadow. It doesn't matter whether the person opposite is the person or the Buddha.
"what… "
"Mom..."
"My blood..."
…
Hearing the voices, the Ming army’s flintlocks fired even more happily, and those who came were all flesh and blood!
The leading soldier was dead, and the Dongyu Army who followed did not have the courage to attack. The screams, screams, and the strong smell of blood had scared their courage.
Without the bird, the bird would flee in another direction. Seeing that there was no way ahead, the soldiers of Dongyu had to retreat back.
Just like the tide on the Qiantang River, once the head of the tide is blocked by the front bank, the tide will pounce back, even more fierce than the oncoming.
When the Dongkuo soldiers retreated, they stepped unscrupulously on the people's body, whether they were old people or children, as long as they could escape their lives, everything was their stepping stone.
The people's screams are screaming, hoarse, and lingering.
Dark night, despair, fleeing, trampling, screaming, bloody, outside the Nancheng gate, the Ming army and Dongyu soldiers jointly performed a hell on earth. On the eighteenth floor of the hell, they are the people of Dongyu.
"I would rather be a peaceful dog than a chaotic person!" The people of Dongyu interpret this proverb of the Han.
