"Who... sweats?"
"That's sweat!"
"General, that's the Great Khan!"
The generals were slightly stunned at first, and then exclaimed.
It's really easy to identify Huang Taiji's unique set of armor and costumes.
Shumulu Yanguli's heart sank instantly. Although he had some guesses, at this moment, he was still extremely shocked.
He really couldn't figure out how the three-party coalition army of more than 400,000 people, including 200,000 cavalry, was annihilated by the 200,000 Ming army.
He knew the character of his brother-in-law Huang Taiji so well that even if the army was defeated, he would not give the Ming army a chance to capture him alive.
But now he was caught, along with more than ten high-level military commanders.
"No, we can't let the sergeants know that this is the Great Khan, otherwise it will greatly affect the morale of the army!"
"It not only affects the morale of the military, but also affects the people of the Ming Dynasty who were recruited!"
"It will greatly destroy the problems that this general has left for Ming Dynasty!"
"If Huang Taiji is captured, Chongzhen will definitely sacrifice him to the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and then kill him in front of the people. There is absolutely no possibility of letting go of this kind of feud!"
"This is a naked insult. Although he failed, he must not be allowed to suffer this kind of insult!"
…
Various thoughts quickly emerged in my mind, and I made a decision instantly.
"Shut up!"
"Don't you have any brains? We have more than 400,000 sergeants, including 200,000 cavalry.
There are three barriers: the Liaohe River, the Hunhe River, and the Taizi River. There are plains outside Liaoyang City, which are suitable for large-scale cavalry charges. Do you think the Ming army can stop it? "
"Think about it with your brains, what kind of person is the Great Khan? He would rather die in battle than be captured by the Ming army.
But now that you've been caught, don't you think it's strange? "
"Even if the Great Khan was caught, what happened to the dozen generals who were all caught and not one of them committed suicide?"
"The general has just recruited all the people in the city to help defend the city, and then a giant arrow was shot out of the city to deliver the message, and then the Khan was hung on a pole. Don't you think this is too coincidental?"
"The only explanation is that the Ming army found people to act as the surrendered generals outside the city, with the purpose of damaging our morale and military morale."
"Why do you do this? Because the Shenyang city wall is eleven and a half meters high, plus the two and a half meter female wall, the total is a fourteen meter high wall.
There is a moat tens of meters wide outside the city. There are more than 10,000 defenders in the city plus the servants of each family, at least 30,000 people. Thirty thousand people defend Shenyang City. The Ming army must have at least 300,000 troops to besiege it for more than three months. ,
Winter will begin here in two months. The snow is falling, the weather is cold, the roads are slippery and muddy, and supplies are difficult. So they have no time to spend with us, so they can only use this method to attack their hearts.
As long as we relax ourselves, we will give them an opportunity. The Ming army lurking in the city can take the opportunity to open the city gate or create chaos and cooperate with the Ming army outside the city to attack the city. "
…
Shumulu Yanguli roared loudly, and his voice echoed on the city wall.
Listening to his analysis, the soldiers were a little flustered at first, but then slowly regained their composure.
Indeed, as Shumulu Yanguli analyzed, it is too much of a coincidence.
It is impossible to explain why he captured the top generals of his own Great Khan and Great Gold in an army of hundreds of thousands.
The soldiers on the city wall heard what Shumulu Yangguli said, and Huang Taiji and other generals who were tied outside the city also heard it, with a satisfied smile in their eyes.
"Everyone prepares their trebuchets and aims at that 'Huang Taiji'. Since they want to die, then we will help them!"
"Trebuchet, withdraw!"
The sergeant on the lookout from the hot air balloon a few meters behind looked at Sergeant Jiannu's operation and shouted loudly.
The sergeants of Feilei Artillery Battalion who were busy digging holes ran away, and the sergeants responsible for carrying the wooden poles tied with Huang Taiji also retreated.
At the same time, the stone-throwing maneuver that had already been prepared was launched, and stones were thrown at the place where 'Huang Taiji' was.
The stone hit the ground, sending up smoke and dust.
"You bastard, we haven't attacked yet, but they have taken the initiative!"
"The flying thunder artillery battalion is ready!"
Sun Chuanting was angry and immediately issued an order to attack.
The flying thunder artillerymen who had been preparing for a long time in the rear carried the flying thunder cannon and entered the newly dug hole under the cover of dust, and put the flying thunder cannon into it.
As soon as it was put in, the thunder cannon sprayed fire and flew towards the city wall with the thunder bombs.
In the blink of an eye, he landed on the city wall.
boom……
boom……
boom……
There were violent explosions.
The solid city wall bricks instantly fell apart, and pieces of rubble were shot around with extremely lethal power.
As long as you rub it, you will either die or be injured.
Barrels of kerosene were knocked over, ignited by the explosion flames, and flowed towards the surrounding area, causing a heat wave.
If a kerosene barrel is directly hit by a thunder bomb, the ignited kerosene will fly into the sky and then fall like fire rain, which is extremely spectacular.
One after another, the trebuchets were washed up by the air waves of the explosion. Before they hit the sergeants operating next to them, the sergeants were already swept up into the sky by the air waves, and then fell towards the city wall more than ten meters high.
Before it fell, it was pierced by flying rocks and ignited by a rain of fire.
The wind helps the fire, and the humanoid flame reappears!
Under the city wall, the common people who had just finished registration and were preparing to carry the city defense equipment were completely stunned.
Feeling the violent vibrations on the ground and the flying rocks and flames, almost all the people immediately urinated.
"Master Jun, I will give you this money in exchange. I don't want it anymore. Let us leave!"
"Bastard, since you took the money, you have to..."
"It's important for me to save my life if you want your mother!"
One person in the crowd cursed angrily: "Brothers, run quickly, it will be too late if you don't run!"
Someone took the lead, and the rest of the people followed. A mere hundred or so people could not block the impact of hundreds of people, but they were scattered in an instant.
At the same time, everyone on the recruiting street outside the inner city gate was attracted by the loud noise.
Through the long street, they saw a scene they would never forget.
The solid city wall collapsed, rocks flew into the sky, the sergeant flew into the air, fire rain fell from the sky, and the city wall burned...
"This...run!"
"Damn it, who can resist this kind of attack from the Ming Army!"
"This money is money to buy your life!"
…
Someone yelled, and the four or five registration teams that were two to three hundred meters long dispersed instantly, and the people watching also dispersed.
The deserted streets became deserted in just a few breaths, leaving only the sergeants registering and guarding gold, silver and jewelry.
Looking at the empty field and the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry, everyone felt a little stupid.
The city gate is destined to be undefendable. If we go back to defend the city, we will die.
