The fire soared into the sky and spread rapidly to both sides. For a time, the entire street was shrouded in fireworks, cutting off the Yuan army's attack route from the east and west sides, but also aroused the Yuan army's anger. You should know that after the Mongolian Yuan implemented the military farming policy, he settled his home on the spot, allocated the land, and built a home. Although it was robbed, it had been operating for more than ten years and regarded it as his own home. In their eyes, the Song army became a real invader.

Now that their relatives are killed, their fields are destroyed, and their homes are swallowed up by fire. After years of hard work, wouldn't this make them very angry? The result is that the Yuan army, regardless of the number of soldiers and civilians, launched a continuous attack with the advantage of numbers, in order to kill these "invaders" and then hurry up.

Because Qianhu Hou was located on the side of the long street, the road was only thirty steps wide, and there was only a small square with a length of less than fifty or sixty steps in front of it. So many troops gathered together and swarmed forward. The guard camp arranged four fires on the front defense, and some of the Duding Dings who surrendered were only seventy or eighty. The enemy troops on the attack surface were just the same. However, the Yuan army was at home, with sufficient reserve forces and shared the same hatred of the enemy. It can be said that they were spontaneous, consciously participating in the war, and their morale was high.

Tan Fei originally thought that the trenches and ponds in front of the city could be used to block the enemy forward, but the enemy troops who were swarming up were fearless of the shooting of muskets. Although people were constantly knocked down, the people behind still stepped forward. In just a moment, the small trenches and ponds that were almost covered were filled with corpses, and scarlet blood flowed everywhere. The weak force of his own troops was so weak that the muskets could not form continuous blocking fire. The enemy behind him was like an angry bull, rushing to the city without hesitation, rushing to the gate and smashing the walls without hesitation.

Listening to the sound of the door breaking and the sound of the wall chiseling, Tan Fei was sweating in his palms. He did not expect that the fighting will of the group of Mongolian Yuan reserve troops was so tenacious, far beyond the enemy he encountered at the beginning, and would scatter after losses. The enemy was already at the city. Although the gate was strong and blocked with chores in advance, he knew that he would not last long with this kind of fighting style.

As the enemy approached the city, the role of the musket was greatly reduced. Even if the gun shot the enemy, it was too late to reload the bullets in the face of the crowd like ants. Tan Fei simply ordered the soldiers to throw grenades into the enemy group under the city. Unexpectedly, it seemed extremely powerful in the melee. Each explosion would bring out a cluster of blood rain, blowing a group of people, but it still could not stop the enemy's attack.

After a long battle, the grenades carried by the officers and soldiers of the guards were almost exhausted. Tan Fei ordered the mortar shells to be ignited and threw them directly under the city. The driving force continued to transport the flower stones, stone benches and long woods collected from the house to the city and kept throwing them down to smash the enemy under the city. After repelling the enemy's three consecutive attacks, the battle gradually subsided. At this time, corpses were piled up on the surface of the city, which was only a few dozen feet in radius, and blood overflowed to the long street. The thick smoke blocked the sunlight, and under the reflection of the beating firelight, it seemed like a Shura field.

"Commander, what is this battle?" After a break in the battle, the team leader Qiu Decai leaned over and said.

"Random battles, I have never fought such a battle since I joined the army." Tan Fei retreated and shook his head with a wry smile, and asked again, "Do we have any casualties?"

"Fortunately, only a few people suffered some skin injuries, and they were not seriously injured, and they could still fight." Qiu Decai replied, "I am also surprised. Why are these village soldiers more brave than those regular soldiers? After so many people died, they still fight to the death without retreating?"

"Alas, those regular soldiers are working for the court in war, but these rural soldiers are defending their homeland in war. Of course, it is different. Moreover, these Tartars have always been fierce and brave. In addition, the people who died are their neighbors and relatives. We have become fish in the net and meat on the table. Of course, we will be killed even if we fight to the death." Tan Fei sighed.

"Bah, the land in Jiangbei is all the land of my Song Dynasty. When did it become the territory of their Tartars? Do you really think they can take it for themselves if they robbed it?" Qiu Decai spat and said angrily.

"This is what Your Majesty often says about the weak. If we do not strive for success, we will become prey for others and food from others, just like those who drive them to oppress and slaughter. But if we become stronger, let alone the Central Plains, even the Desert North of the Tartars, we will all be ours. Let them shed horses for the Song Dynasty." Tan Fei said.

"If you want to make Sajia the food they eat, you have to see how their teeth are?" Qiu Decai sneered.

"That's true, but our situation is not optimistic, so we have to prepare early!" Tan Fei heard his tone and knew that although everyone was in a siege, his morale had not decreased at all.

"Even if the commander gives orders, everyone will follow everything." Qiu Decai politely said, "Previously, everyone had doubts about the commander coming to the guard camp. They thought that the commander had obtained this high position because he was His Majesty's childhood companion, and they were not completely convinced. However, after this battle, everyone could see that the commander was not only wise and brave, but also loyal to His Majesty. We all saw that it was extremely dangerous to enter Guabu Town alone, and the commander had already known it, but he still took His Majesty's instructions first and came here risking his life. Only these brothers would be willing to follow the commander's leader!"

"Your Majesty is a deep kindness for me personally. Not only did he save the lives of our orphans and widows, but he never abandoned them in great difficulty and kept them by my side. Otherwise, I would not be a starving person on the street, and I would live a life worse than death like these drivers. In a broad sense, Your Majesty can be said to have turned the tide when the Song Dynasty was in the life and death and helped the building fall. Therefore, there would be no Song without Your Majesty. Why should we cherish our humble body for your own sake for your own sake?" Tan Fei said solemnly.

"What the commander said is very true. Even if we are all killed today, we cannot make Your Majesty lose his words to the people of the world!" Qiu Decai said.

"The matter has not been so serious that His Majesty will not leave anyone in the army, so how can he give up on us easily? Now he must start organizing rescue." Tan Fei waved his hand and smiled, "Listen, the sound of gunfire in the west and south has been constant. This shows that Chen Dushuai is fighting fiercely with Habichi's troops on the one hand, trying to get closer to us, and on the other hand, he is blocking Du Gewanhu who came to reinforce from Liuhe."

"No way? The Sa family saw that Li Hongbin was not like a good person. If he hadn't been rushing to go back to Jiangbei and pushing us to the point of being stuck here!" Qiu Decai said indignantly.

"It's not entirely true that Li Dutong is blamed. He also acted according to the plan. Who knew that there were other problems!" Tan Fei waved his hand and said.

"As the main general of the front line, he has the right to give him the right to help him. After the enemy situation changes, he should adjust the combat plan accordingly, rather than sticking to the incompetent and having no responsibility. He is not worthy of being the main general of one side!" Qiu Decai said angrily.

"Your Majesty is definitely not a confused person. There must be a public opinion on which matter is right and wrong. We have no right to comment!" Tan Fei shook his head and skipped the topic, straightened up and looked out of the city, "We have too few troops at present and have no reserve team. If we continue to fight like this, it will be impossible for the Tartars to waste, and we need to make plans early!"

"The Tartars are adjusting their troops and are about to start the attack again!" Qiu Decai squatted up and looked out through the battlements. He saw that the enemy was also adjusting. Some people were organizing rescue, pulling down the burning house to organize the spread of the fire; some people climbed onto the opposite house with arrows on their backs, hoping to provide cover for the siegemen; and from a distance, you can see someone trapped in a section of the long street. There is no need to ask if they want to set up ladders to attack the city.

"We have few troops and few ammunition, and the bottom of the wall has been hollowed out and the gate has been destroyed. We can no longer fight against them." Tan Fei looked at it and said. He almost killed the master with the chaotic fist just now. Now, after the enemy's re-adjustment, they will launch an organized attack, which is even more difficult for them to stop.

"The commander means to give up the wall and retreat to the inner house to fight the streets with the enemy?" Qiu Decai understood his intention after thinking for a moment. At that time, they were defending by the wall. Although the defense surface was greatly reduced, their troops were still too wide, which made them a little overwhelmed just now. When they retreated to the yard, the houses were adjacent to them, and there were only a few passages, and the defense surface was greatly reduced, so they could control a road with just a few people.

"Well, but we must organize two lines of defense. The first one uses the main hall as the baseline to defend and hold on to it, consume the enemy's troops and attack its morale. The second one is set up with the inner house wall as the baseline. Once the first one is broken, it quickly retreats and waits for assistance. At the same time, we must control the commanding heights. Both the corner tower and the roof must arrange troops to prevent the enemy from infiltration into our defense line from the wall. We will also arrange explosion points on the north wall to prevent reinforcements from coming and prepare to break out after dark." Tan Fei nodded and arranged a task, and said slowly.

"It is important to remember that the life of every soldier is precious and is a great talent in the future. Do not cause casualties due to recklessness, impulse, or rash attack. Before the unavoidable, you should not fight in close combat with the enemy. You should be good at using the weapons in your hands to eliminate the enemy. If I am killed, you will be the one who takes over the command, and so on. Do not break through with the power of a person. If you are a person, you cannot break through the siege. If possible, you must take those who drive the siege. If they are left, they will have no way to break through, and there will be no physiology!"

"Don't worry, commander, keep it in mind!" Qiu Decai nodded and led most of the troops down the wall first.

"Come on, let's kill them first!" Tan Fei called the rest of the people, patted the musket in his hand, and pointed to the Yuan army road that was being mobilized outside the wall...

…………

When the guard battalion was fighting hard, Li Hongbin was scolded by Chen Fenglin and hurriedly redeployed his troops, ordering the troops deployed in Guabu Mountain to stop retreating, organize defenses in the northwest, and block the enemy troops coming from Changlu Town. At the same time, the commander of the First Regiment led the Third Battalion of the Reserve Team and the Artillery Battalion directly under the Division that had just landed, reinforced the First Battalion and the Second Battalion directly under the Guabu Town, and reinforced the Guabu Town; ordered the direct baggage battalion directly under the division and the Third Battalion directly under the Division to defend the ferry; ordered the third regiment and the direct rocket battalion directly under the army to defend the north and block the reinforcements from Dugewanhu Mansion.

"We are known as the first army of the imperial guards. We boasted about Haikou in front of His Majesty and used a division's troops to deal with a thousand households who farmed, but the battle was like this. Is your division general embarrassed? I feel so arrogant that I have no shame to see the emperor. Should I transfer the first division across the river to replace your second division?" Chen Fenglin walked anxiously in the temporary command post, and pointed Li Hongbin with a horse whip and said.

"All the handsome men are all humble and incompetent!" Li Hongbin bowed his head and bowed.

"You are not just incompetent! The Sa family saw that you were promoted to the office and your mind was not good!" Chen Fenglin said in anger, "You are also the old man of the General's Office. You don't know your majesty's temper? You can laugh and laugh on weekdays, but you must not be ambiguous in the main business. Qin Linfeng was also his beloved general, ruled tens of thousands of troops, and he was killed without any mercy because he made a big mistake. You wouldn't think you were more face than Qin Linfeng!"

"You can't compare with your humble position!" Li Hongbin said with a blushing face.

"You know that you should know your grandfather's intention. He sent his guard camp up, just to make up his mind to rescue the assault team!" Chen Fenglin became even more annoyed when he heard this, and said in a true voice.

"Didn't your Majesty say that the guard camp has not participated in actual combat for a long time and needs to train the team?" Li Hongbin raised his head and said.

"Oh, Tan Fei and you both came from the Guard Camp, why are you so stupid?" Chen Fenglin smiled anxiously and patted his shoulder, "The Guard Camp is the personal army of Your Majesty's personal army. He is in the safety of Your Majesty. He will never move lightly until the extraordinary time. This use is to show his determination, and Tan Fei understood His Majesty's meaning. He knew he was going deep into the tiger's den, but he went alone. But you were hesitant and refused to advance for a long time. He also wanted to withdraw his troops and retreat back to Jiangnan. What did you ask Your Majesty to think of me and how did you think of you? Can this be explained clearly with a stupid word?"

"Xie Dushuai, I understand!" It was a word that woke up the dreamer. Li Hongbin thought Tan Fei was trying to compete for me at first, and was angry. Now he was sweating all over his body. He gratified and said to Chen Fenglin. He knew that if he lost the guard camp and failed to save the other four people, his life in the army would be over.

"What's the use of giving me a gift? If you can't wipe out Habichi Qianhu today, you won't come back from Guabu Town!" Chen Fenglin shook his horse whip hard on the desk with a loud noise.
