Chapter 416
"Marshal, look quickly, reinforcements are coming!"

This sound, like the sounds of nature, made He Renlong overjoyed. He quickly turned his head to look over, and saw a red line appeared in the distance to the south. You can already vaguely hear it.

"Damn it, the reinforcements have really arrived! Haha, the reinforcements have arrived!" He Renlong burst into laughter, and quickly shouted: "Brothers, the reinforcements have arrived, brothers, the reinforcements have arrived..."

The trick of Jianlu hanging from the top of the city made him, who was short of troops, helpless. Even if he went all out, he would not be able to block the huge circle of Guihua City.Originally, he thought that this time, he might be shrouded in horse leather.

The timely appearance of the reinforcements really made him very happy.

Since he is like this, there is no need to mention other Ming army officers and soldiers.They took the time to see the reinforcements coming quickly behind them. Each one was just like their commander. While continuing to fight with Jianlu, they all shouted wildly: "The reinforcements are here, the reinforcements are here, the Ming Dynasty is victorious!"

Every time they shouted, their momentum and morale increased. They who had been marching in a hurry had never had a good rest. They were already exhausted, and they didn't know where their strength came from. The existence of running around.

As for the Jianlu at the head of the naturalized city and under the city, their mood was completely opposite, and many people were dumbfounded.

The fight was inextricably linked, or in other words, when the dawn of victory appeared, the enemy's reinforcements suddenly appeared. How could we fight?
On the top of the city, Ji Erhalang's face was also a little pale. Looking at the distance, tens of thousands of horses galloped, and the dust rolled up went straight to the sky. The reinforcements from the Ming Kingdom, how many troops are here?

At this time, it was already evening, and it was not very clear.

The more he couldn't see clearly, the more terrified Ji Erhalang felt.Could it be the main force of the Ming army, all the reinforcements came up?

Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea, is he going to follow in Dorgon's footsteps and be wiped out in Guihua City?

The sudden new force inevitably affected both sides fighting on the battlefield.

When he came back to his senses, Jianlu panicked.Those Jian captives who went down to the top of the city knew that if they stayed under the city, they would definitely die.At this time, regardless of the military order, he immediately pulled the rope and climbed to the top of the city.And the ones on the top, of course, didn't go any further down, and they weren't crazy!
At the gate of the city, Jianlu, who was desperately pushing forward, also faltered immediately, and immediately began to retreat into the gate hole.

"Let them back quickly, or if the morale of the unknown army is high, those who go out of the city will die!" Azig couldn't help shouting when he saw Jierhalang standing there in a daze.

After being called out by him, Jierhalang came back to his senses, and couldn't help but smiled wryly: "They all started to withdraw themselves."

Hearing this, Azig turned his head to look at the situation on the battlefield, but became angry again.They withdrew without an order to withdraw their troops. This is a disobedience to the military order!

But at this moment, so what if he was angry?
After all, Jierhalang gave the order to withdraw the troops, and the sound of "dang, clang, clang" resounded from the top of the city, which relieved those Jian captives who resisted the order and withdrew to the top of the city.

Speaking of which, these are the elite of Jianlu after all.Although they disobeyed the military order and retreated, they did not scramble to be the first, and there was still a certain order. Those who were covering with shields were still covering with shields, waiting for the accomplices behind them to go to the top of the wall first.

At this time, they wanted to withdraw, how could He Renlong let them do so, and immediately ordered loudly: "Brothers, go up to this commander and shoot them to death. Damn it, it's easy to get down. If you want to go up, you have to get my commander's approval." No?"

In fact, he didn't need to give this order. The Ming army soldiers had already launched an attack on their own initiative, shooting the prisoners who were climbing the wall without cover.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

"Blah blah blah..."

"Boom boom boom..."

"..."

All kinds of long-range weapons, including bows and arrows, muskets, cannons, and even javelins, all greeted the crawling prisoners.

Even if the Jianlu on the top of the city fought back to cover them, those Jianlu who had no cover turned out to be unlucky ghosts.

Some of these people were hit by many arrows, like hedgehogs, they fell down with an "ah" and hit their comrades who were trying to climb up; some blood bubbles suddenly appeared on their bodies, Just like a fountain, the blood spurted out immediately, and the corpses all fell on the accomplices below; there was even one who was nailed to the city wall by a javelin, but it didn't fall off...

At this time, the Ming reinforcements in the distance were getting closer and closer, and with the help of the afterglow of the setting sun, they could basically see clearly.

He Renlong could see clearly, he couldn't help laughing and said, "It's still a brother from our hussars battalion, the tiger with a big beard is here, haha..."

That's right, the reinforcements that arrived in time were from Hu Dawei, another commander-in-chief of the Hussars Battalion.Although he set off immediately after He Renlong set off.But he was a man with two horses, and his speed was not as fast as that of He Renlong's men. In the end, he arrived nearly a full day late.

From a distance, he saw the Ming army in red mandarin duck battle robes surrounding Guihua City, so he knew he was not late, and he was immediately overjoyed.

However, Jierhalang on the top of the wall felt a little regretful again.At this time, he has seen clearly.The Ming army's reinforcements this time were only about 5000 people. The scary momentum just now was only because they were also equipped with empty horses!

All the Ming troops outside the city should add up to only have the same strength as their own.However, the Ming army must have marched in a hurry, and their physical strength and energy must not be as good as that of the Qing army.If he hadn't been persuaded just now and continued to attack, and the warriors of the Qing Dynasty knew this, there might still be a chance to attack.

But at this time, Jierhalang looked at the situation on his side. Except for the dead, almost all the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty under the city had returned to the top of the city.All the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were downcast one by one, obviously not suitable for fighting anymore.

Ji Erhalang looked up at the sky, the half-circle moon had already appeared, and the sky was full of stars, which were beginning to appear.

He was also a decisive person. He lowered his head, looked at the Ming army outside the city, and ordered without hesitation: "Light up a fire and cook, and everyone except those on duty should rest immediately."

"Call again at night?" Azig heard the meaning in his words, and immediately asked.

After hearing this, Ji Erhalang nodded immediately, and said without hesitation: "The main force of the Ming army where the emperor of the Ming Kingdom belongs has not yet come up. If we stay here for a moment longer, we will be in danger for a moment longer. Wait until tomorrow to fight. The Ming army will also slow down. Even if the night battle is easy to be chaotic, it must be fought."

Azig also knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately nodded and echoed: "Yes, we must fight!"

On the Guihua City side, the war finally came to an end due to the arrival of reinforcements from Hu Dawei's troops, and both sides entered a state of rest.

Hu Dawei galloped over and dismounted. Most of his bodyguards staggered at first, but he didn't have any problems at all. He walked very steadily. It can be seen that he has excellent equestrian skills and is worthy of being of Mongolian origin.

Guided by Shuai Qi, he strode over and saw that He Renlong, who still had a few arrows hanging on his body, was also walking towards him, so he laughed and said, "How about it, brother, I'm not late, am I?"

"Okay you bearded man, when you go back, I'll treat you to old wine, the best kind in the capital!" He Renlong laughed, with a rare trace of gratitude on his face, and replied Hu Dawei.

Then, without waiting for Hu Dawei to speak, he immediately said first: "Jianlu rushed out desperately, probably because he knew the danger, so he jumped over the wall in a hurry. They rushed from the city gate, hanged from the city wall, and all kinds of methods were used. Let me explain to you clearly..."

Although Hu Dawei is full of beards, he usually seems to have the same smell and personality as He Renlong.However, how can he be a brute who can accumulate merit all the way from a small soldier to a general soldier!Therefore, when he heard that he was talking about business, he immediately became serious and listened seriously.

He Renlong didn't even take a breath, he finished the situation in one breath, and finally said to Hu Dawei: "Big beard, I'm really tired here, please help me a little bit, and give me a breather!"

When Hu Dawei heard this, he understood of course that He Renlong had rushed over as fast as he could, and immediately went into battle.It is indeed not easy to persist until now.

Therefore, he immediately nodded and said: "Okay, I will leave it to my brother, you go and rest for a while."

When He Renlong heard this, he smiled and patted Hu Dawei on the shoulder as a gesture of gratitude.

Hu Dawei knew that this was not the time to be polite, so he immediately turned around and shouted to his subordinates: "Reform the team immediately and change defense with your colleagues."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and wanted to say a few more words to He Renlong.But when he turned his head and looked, he didn't see He Renlong, so he flashed away so quickly?
"Snoring..." Suddenly, there was a sound of snoring from under his feet. He looked down and couldn't help crying or laughing: It turned out that He Renlong just lay down on the spot and fell asleep right away!
After the first laugh, Hu Dawei suddenly became serious.

He Renlong's troops are really exhausted, and thanks to their starry nights, they rushed here as fast as possible, and they have been fighting Jianlu all the time. They really deserve to be the heroes of Qin!

Thinking of this, and then turned his head, Hu Dawei saw that after his subordinates handed over to He Renlong's subordinates, most of them lay down on the spot and fell asleep from exhaustion.

Looking around again, I found that many soldiers of the Ming army were injured or died in battle.It can be seen that the fierce fighting situation during the day is evident from this!This kind of high-intensity warfare is really not something that ordinary troops can bear.

It seems that it is not unreasonable for the emperor to choose He Renlong's subordinates!Hu Dawei thought about this in his heart, and suddenly he was refreshed again, and immediately shouted: "Brothers, they are all good guys, and we are not cowards, cheer up the commander, and block Jianlu to death!" !"

Tired of Tiger Dawei?Of course I'm tired too!But at this time, when they saw the appearance of He Renlong's troops and the situation on the battlefield here, they all felt admiration from the bottom of their hearts.But everyone is a brother of the hussars battalion, of course there is competition at ordinary times, and now they are performing so well, how can I be compared with them on my side!
Thinking of this, Hu Dawei's subordinates all shouted in response: "Block Jianlu to death! Daming Wansheng!"

The slogans were shouted, but their hands kept moving, and they immediately began to prepare for war.

Hearing the high-spirited voice from outside the city, Jierhalang felt particularly heavy, but he didn't show it, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Send the order and tell every soldier about our situation. Clear. Tell them, only by attacking and defeating the Ming army outside the city can they survive!"

After a pause, he added: "The Ming army outside the city must have traveled day and night to arrive. They are exhausted. As long as they are close to fighting, the Ming army will definitely not be my opponent!"

Explain your own desperate situation, and give him another hope, so that you won't break the can!
I have to say that it was a bit embarrassing for the Qing Dynasty for Jierhalang to issue such an order.But now, the facts are already like this. If every soldier of the Qing Dynasty is not informed of the situation and fights without hesitation, and waits until the main force of the Ming army arrives, then the whole army will really be annihilated like Dorgon's army in Tashan. Got it!
Therefore, even the bad-tempered Azig didn't say a word when he heard such an order that insulted the reputation of the Qing Dynasty. Instead, he responded to Jierhalang and discussed with him how to break through at night and defeat the enemy outside the city. Ming army!
…………

In the distance outside the city, Ying Erdai saw Ming reinforcements arriving during the day, and he knew that he had no chance, so he gave up harassing the Ming army and ran away immediately.At this time, he was lying on the grass far away, looking at Guihua City, although he was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

Looking back and looking at the people around me, there are only about thirty people, which is too small.More importantly, most of these subordinates are herders, so they are not prepared for war. What they can use in their hands is only a knife and a gun, and the rest are consumed during the day.If there are 200 people, all fully armed, maybe they can sneak attack at the right time, which can be of great use.

After thinking about the useless idea for a while, Ying Erdai had a bad feeling in his heart: the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was so shrewd, wouldn't he give the Qing Dynasty a chance?Maybe if you can't break out tonight, you won't be able to break out tomorrow.

Thinking about it this way, he remembered that 1 Qing troops had been lost on Tashan, and if another 1 Qing troops were lost in Guihua City, the strength of the Qing Dynasty would be severely weakened.Could it be that the good days of the Qing Dynasty have only passed so many years?The Ming army became stronger as they fought, so where will the Qing Dynasty go?

Time does not depend on anyone's will, and passes by little by little according to its own inherent laws.

The night gradually deepened.Between the heaven and the earth, it seems that only the cold wind is whistling.

Outside Guihua City, He Renlong's troops had already woken up at some point, and quietly joined the defense.If you really want to keep sleeping like that, you will definitely end up freezing to death.

I don't know when, above Guihua City, there was a figure shaking suddenly.
