Li Qing took a deep breath: "Array of sharp knives!"
"yes!"
There were more than seventy people, shouting with the momentum of seven hundred people.
Li Qing was holding a giant sword and was at the front of the sharp sword array. Shi Biao was not willing to lag behind and kept pace with him.
"Little brother, go a little north." Li Qing raised the knife in his hand, "If you have one knife in front of you, the knife will be sharp. If you have two knives in front, the knife will be dull."
Shi Biao sneered: "You, Li Qipinniu, and I, Shi Biao, are not weak either."
"I know you are not weak." Li Qing glanced at his injuries, "Your current state is no longer qualified to be at the forefront."
"you……!"
"Fighting is not about emotions. Just wait a little longer." Li Qing's tone was calm, but there was no room for doubt.
Shi Biao snorted and fell half a body behind Li Qing.
A quarter and a half later, another Tatar cavalry charge came, this time the number was smaller, only more than 3,000 people.
Li Qing seized the opportunity and shouted softly: "Kill...!"
"kill……!"
I remember that in those days, we were able to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger. Although our soldiers are more than seventy years old, our style is still the same as before.
Li Qing took the lead, and all the Ming troops behind him also fought bravely. Like moths to a flame, they rushed towards the Tatar flank.
Chopping, chopping, picking, and stabbing, everyone used their best method to kill the enemy most efficiently.
Li Qing was almost exhausted, and his physical strength was greatly reduced. He mechanically wielded the giant sword, killing as many enemies as possible.
Although the others were not as brave as him, they still tried their best. They fought bloody battles on the battlefield, they bravely killed the enemy, and they defended their homes and countries...
After only blocking for a quarter of an hour, the Tatars walked away.
Obviously, people didn't take these dozens of people seriously, and they didn't even bother to make a last-ditch attack.
This time, Li Qing was also injured, with several scars on his shoulders and arms. Shi Heng was even worse than him, with more than a dozen large and small knife wounds, and the little finger of his left hand was chopped off.
But at least they were alive, while others lost their lives.
In addition, two people were still alive, but one had his abdomen opened, and the other was trampled by Tatar horse hooves. His whole chest collapsed, and they couldn't stop screaming from the physical pain.
Shi Biao stepped forward with a knife and said hoarsely: "Brother, don't worry, the living people will avenge you."
As he said that, one of them stabbed one of them in the heart of the two, and the two quickly became quiet.
Li Qing lowered his head and eyebrows, speechless and choked.
Andingmen is the hardest hit area, and other gates are not safe either.
Dongzhimen, Xizhimen, Chaoyangmen, Xuanwumen, Zhenyangmen, Fuchengmen, Chongwenmen, and Deshengmen were also attacked by Tatars.
But relatively speaking, these portals are far less critical than the Anding Gate.
The Tatars have a clear purpose, which is to prevent anyone from supporting Andingmen.
When Li Qing and Shi Heng rushed back to Andingmen, there were 25,000 Ming troops, plus the 6,000 supported by Shi Heng, leaving less than 10,000.
And everyone was squeezed to the city wall.
In this case, the Tatar offensive rhythm was destroyed, otherwise the situation would be even more critical.
Shi Heng was really out of ideas, so he shouted at Ma Shun, the royal guard at the top of the city: "I'm ordering all the troops to go to the rear. Open the door quickly and defend the city!"
"Sorry, it can't be opened." Ma Shun shook his head and said, "Yu Shangshu said that you can't open the door even if the sky falls."
In fact, the city gate has been blocked by stones and cannot be opened in a short period of time. Of course, Ma Shun has no intention of opening it.
He is in the city, so he is naturally not in a hurry.
Shi Heng was so angry that he gritted his teeth and shouted: "I'm so stupid#@#￥%%..."
I don't know whether he is scolding Yu Qian or Ma Shun.
After getting angry, he had to worry. Shi Heng gritted his teeth and chose to be ruthless: "Everyone, step forward to kill the enemy, and those who retreat will be killed!
The general retreats and beheads the general, the soldiers retreat and beheads the soldiers, the general fights hard, the soldiers are too afraid to fight and behead the whole army!
Kill me! ! ! "
Shi Heng completely ignored life and death. Since he couldn't go back, he would go forward to kill him.
The soldiers have no other choice. If they don't go back, they will be stabbed. Since they are all being stabbed, it is better to be stabbed in front than in the back. At least the court will provide compensation when the time comes.

"What should we do?" Shi Biao looked at Li Qing. He was already impressed by Li Qing.
"Huh..." Li Qing let out a long sigh and said feebly: "Hold on."
Hearing this, the always tough Shi Biao couldn't help but remain silent, yes, he could only defend.
"Damn it, even if you die on the battlefield and go underground, you have to respect me." Shi Biao gritted his teeth and took advantage of the vacuum of Tatar's momentum to swing his sword forward again.
Li Qing had a good impression of the soldier and fought with him, taking the time to protect him a few times before meeting up with Shi Heng.
After stumbling and stumbling, Li Qing and Shi Biao were stabbed several times each, and finally got together with Shi Heng.
"You two are finally back." Shi Heng saw that they were now saviors, "When will the reinforcements arrive?"
"What reinforcements?" Shi Biao asked, "We are going to stop the Tatars. Otherwise, how could you have persisted until now?"
"What a fool." Shi Heng's last hope was shattered. He turned around and yelled at Ma Shun on the city wall: "Tell Yu Qian that I can't bear it anymore and ask him if he still wants Andingmen."
I can't stop it, I really can't stop it.
Ma Shun also knew that the matter was serious and immediately ordered someone to notify Yu Qian of Deshengmen immediately.
He could also see that the soldiers under the city were really at their limit and their potential had been exhausted.
Hundreds of households in Jinyi rushed to Deshengmen at a speed of eight hundred miles, and the general played Yu Qian's love.
When Yu Qian heard that Anding Gate was about to be lost, he couldn't help but feel terrified. He gritted his teeth and said, "Let them hold on. Reinforcements will arrive soon."
"Yes." Baihu hurriedly cupped his hands and left in a hurry.
Yu Qian was not rich either, but Andingmen had to be saved. He had no choice but to squeeze in.
In the end, Yu Qian forced out all the cavalry, 2,700 of them!
Go to support Andingmen.
However, when the two thousand seven hundred people rushed out, only two thousand people were left.
Two thousand people are not many, but they can handle some tasks, and they are still cavalry. I hope they can solve the urgent needs of Andingmen... Yu Qian prayed in his heart. ΟиЪ.ōΓＧ
At this time, Andingmen.
The strength of the Ming army was less than 7,000, and many of them were injured. Their combat strength was less than half of its peak. After such a long battle, their physical strength and morale were almost exhausted.
The Tatars' losses were not small. The Ming army's stubborn resistance was beyond their imagination. After fighting forty thousand people, only twenty-eight thousand were left. The physical strength of the men and horses was greatly reduced.
The previous waves of impact had placed too great a load on the horses, and now they could no longer run.
"kill……!"
When reinforcements from the Ming army came, they started shouting from afar, with great momentum.
"The reinforcements have arrived, the reinforcements have arrived...!" Ma Shun stood high and looked far away, and immediately called to his subordinates, "Shout to me to boost morale, tell us that there are 20,000 reinforcements."
"Ah? This..." Qianhu Jinyi muttered, "Isn't this lying about military information?"
"Scream if you want." Ma Shun kicked him away, and Qianhu's instinct flashed and he threw him into the dirt, "Your mother... cough cough, don't be stunned, shout quickly! Shout!! "
A group of Jinyi guards saw the boss's ferocious face, and immediately shouted: "Brothers below the city, hold on, our reinforcements are coming, 20,000, brothers below the city, hold on...!"
The brothers below the city couldn't see the reinforcements at all, but they could vaguely hear them.
People who are close to despair are instinctively inclined to believe in words of hope because this is their last straw.
The last bit of potential of the thousands of defenders was squeezed out and turned into combat power to resist the Tatars again.
"Reinforcements are finally here." Shi Heng was excited and shouted: "Brothers, kill, the time to counterattack has come."
Li Qing secretly sighed: Where did the 20,000 reinforcements come from? Isn't this nonsense?
At this time, he would not expose it and joined the army to kill the Tatars.
The Tatars were also frightened. They looked far away on horseback and saw the number of Ming cavalry, but they were not sure whether there were infantry behind them.
But they did not retreat. The Grand Master issued a death order this time, vowing not to look back until Anding Gate was breached!
"Damn it, it's already afternoon and we're still fighting." Li Qing was furious.
Uncles and nephews Shi Heng and Shi Biao also cursed.
…
It's approaching evening.
Let alone the people, the horses are almost exhausted.
Finally, under the desperate attack of the Tatars, the heavy city gate was overwhelmed and opened a large hole.
Before they were overjoyed, they saw the airtight and dense stones at the door. What they didn't know was that behind the stones, factory guards were still licking bricks and tiles.
The Tatars came in a hurry this time because they were in a hurry. They didn't bring any ladders or catapults, mainly to make up for the time difference.
Therefore, the only way for them to enter the city is to break through the city gate.
Now the city gate is broken, but behind the gate is a stone wall, which is... shocking.
The Ming army defended with sheer force of will, while the Tatars... were full of energy. Now that they were short of men and horses, their energy had long since disappeared, and a stone wall had even dispersed their spirit.
The rugged man looked miserable: Damn it, the Grand Master made a wrong decision!
"withdraw--!"
After fighting for so long, the Tatars are not much better than the Ming army. In this situation, even if they kill the Ming army, they can't break the city.
The war finally came to an end, everyone collapsed on the ground from exhaustion, and almost no longer even had the strength to breathe.
Li Qing looked at the dim sky, recovering his energy after a year, and murmured:
"We can't go on like this. Reinforcements are expected to take another three days, but this situation can't last that long. We have to take the initiative!"
