Thanks to Brother Xiong for initiating the discussion!
When I write, the principle is to proceed on a reasonable basis.
When I was designing the plot, I felt that the Tatars would do such a thing because of their urine. And with Sun Hong's buttocks, they would also make such a decision.
However, in the middle, one thing was not handled well, that is, it was not clear from the beginning that the Tatars still had the strength to fight. They only said that the previous defeat in the war was due to the Tatars' carelessness. The loss of troops was not enough for the main Tatar force. To the point of breaking your muscles and bones. This was not clearly made clear from the beginning.
In addition, there is no description of the county wall or perimeter, and there is no detail from the beginning that I designed this plot: I originally thought that the Tatars were capable of killing at least tens of thousands of people. After all, there are nearly 10,000 Tatars in the city, and it will not be difficult for them to massacre the people. The White Armored Soldiers, other True Tatars, and the Eight Banners of Mongolia also have considerable strength. They didn't stop fighting, but they used this move to disgust the Ming army and threaten Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting.
What Du Du was afraid of was not that he would not be able to defeat the Ming army or that he would die, but that the people and materials he was responsible for guarding would suffer massive losses, which was his responsibility.
If this point could be written down, I believe there would be less controversy. Although some corrections were made afterwards, there was still some discrepancy between the idea and the work.
I will pay attention to this in the future, thank you!
