Chapter 98 (1/2)

Although the counter attack of the Jin garrison in the back of the city was ferocious, it did not frighten the men of the Ming army.

Seeing that the consumption of the rolling wood and stone at the head of the city was almost exhausted, Zhang pan roared and led a dozen of his relatives to personally participate in the siege.

The Ming army saw the general go to war, but their morale was greatly improved. They quickly gathered together and launched a new round of fierce attack on the city.

On the left wing, Chen Zhong's side also began to take action. Hundreds of soldiers mounted the ladder and rushed to the Western castle wall.

On the right wing, Li Yuanqing squints at the situation ahead. At this time, the threatening weapons of Houjin garrison are basically thrown out. It's time.

”I ordered Duan Xiliang to take 300 soldiers to attack the city.”

”Yes.”

Soon, Li Yuanqing's military orders were conveyed. Duan Xiliang, with three hundred soldiers of Li Yuanqing's army and carrying three ladders, quickly rushed to the east of Nanguan Fort wall.

This morning, Li Yuanqing and his colleagues had a careful discussion.

Although Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong have a large number of people, their equipment quality is far inferior to that of Liu Aita's main force.

Siege is purely a hard fight, even if your own strength is several times stronger than your opponent.

If Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhongbu go to the vanguard, they can only take human life to fill in. Even if they can fight down, they will kill 1000 enemies and lose 800 themselves. In the state of three men, no one can bear the heavy burden.

The Zhang Pan Department is well-equipped, has local advantages and is familiar with the terrain. Even if there is any damage, it is within the controllable range. It is also ”good steel for the blade”.

Originally, the Houjin garrison in Nanguan had some difficulty facing zhangpan department. With Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong participating in the battle one after another, their pressure doubled.

Just a quarter of an hour later, cheering came first from the West. Chen Zhong had already led his troops to attack the city and took the initiative completely. The Houjin garrison did not dare to resist and fled in confusion.

Then, there was good news from the front zhangpan department. The defeat of the garrison on the west side caused the panic of the main force of the Jin Dynasty after Nanguan pass. They did not dare to love the war, so they had to give up the city head and quickly withdraw to the north gate.

The eastern part of Li Yuanqing, driven by Chen Zhong and Zhang pan, was also brought up and soon killed at the head of the city.

Seeing that all the main forces have been evacuated, the garrison at the head of the city retreated in a hurry. Duan Xiliang led people to chase and kill them, leaving many corpses.

Half an hour later, Nanguan has completely fallen into the hands of Li Yuanqing's three departments. At this time, the sun has just risen in the sky for more than half an hour, which is about ten o'clock.

Zhang pan smiles at the South Gate of Nanguan to welcome Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong into the city.

In this battle, his headquarters only injured more than 40 people, but killed 70 or 80 Tartars in the south gate. Although most of them were Han people with the Han Army flag, they were absolutely victorious.

”Ha ha ha. It's a pleasure. Fortunately, these Tartars run fast. Otherwise, I will kill them one by one. ”

Chen Zhong's face is full of blood. He led the team in the siege just now.

Of the three, only Li Yuanqing did not personally participate in the siege.

After the three entered the city, Zhang pan held a banquet in the official hall of the castle to entertain Li Yuanqing, Chen Zhong and three soldiers.

Soon, the results were counted.

Chen Zhong got more than 50 Tartars on his side and lost more than 50 people. Duan Xiliang only got more than 30 tartar heads, but lost more than 40 people.

There is also a clear comparison of the combat effectiveness of the various departments.

Unfortunately, after Nanguan, the garrison was well prepared. There was not much food and materials in the city, and the people were very few. The three departments paid more than 100 lives, but the actual harvest was very meager.

But there are also some advantages. Li Yuanqing captured many weapons of later Jin soldiers. On Li Yuanqing's side, there are more than 20 excellent steel knives, and some spears, hooks and forks. Li Yuanqing directly captured these weapons and equipped them to the front line of the army.

After a sumptuous lunch, Zhang pan and Chen Zhong both went to camp in Nanguan fort, but Li Yuanqing didn't let them in.

Zhang pan was obviously displeased. Chen Zhong opened his mouth to Zhang pan and said Li Yuanqing's plan.

Zhang pan looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile and said, ”brother Li, the three of us together are a good knife. If you leave like this, don't you miss this great achievement in vain?”

Li Yuanqing didn't want to fall out with Zhang pan. He said with a smile, ”brother Chen is here, and there are more than 2000 people in your two departments. As you can see from brother Zhang, I don't have enough training equipment on this side. I really have enough spare power to fight against the city. We can keep in touch with each other closely after I get to the front line of Liaoxi. If the two brothers break through Jinzhou as soon as possible, we can meet again under the city

Listen to Li Yuanqing said so, Zhang Pan's face looked better, but did not take on Li Yuanqing's words, maintaining his aloofness.

Li Yuanqing doesn't mind.

Even if Mao Wenlong was present in person, Li Yuanqing would exercise sufficient restraint in this kind of behavior of ”attacking the enemy with his own weakness”.After simply saying goodbye to the two men, Li Yuanqing returned directly to Lushun wharf. At this time, Xu Heizi had arrived and asked about the battle situation in Nanguan.

Shunzi hurried to Nanguan's affairs and said to Xu Heizi simply that Xu Heizi would scold Zhang Pan's mother.

Li Yuanqing glared at Xu sunspot.

Xu Heizi could only swallow the dirty words that came to his mouth and swallow them back into his stomach. He said wrongly, ”my Lord, we have run for hundreds of miles to help them. This surnamed Zhang is so kind to us. Why does he rely on it?”

Li Yuanqing didn't want to tangle with this topic, ”it's all about killing Tartars. Why is there so much nonsense? Mr. Zhang, like this, naturally has the intention of Mr. Zhang. We don't take part in it, but we expect them to win. I'm so damn patient. Shunzi, you go and have a look. Are they coming soon

”Yes.” Shunzi rushed to the ship. There is a high watchtower on the ship, which can be seen far away from the wharf.
