Liu Zehong climbed into the city wall overnight. The Qing army in the city had already begun to dig trenches while restoring the city wall.

Liu Zehong was pulled up to the city wall and asked where Liu Liangzuo was. When he learned that he was at Boleh, he went directly.

At this time, it was already three o'clock in the middle of the night. Bolehe and Liu Liangzuo had arranged the matter of digging the trench overnight.

Originally, Liu Liangzuo was going back to his house, but Bolehe was dragged to have a midnight snack and waited for Liu Zehong to come back together.

At this time, the two were eating, and the guards came to report, "Master, General Liu is back."

When Bolehe heard the sound, he immediately put down his bowls and chopsticks, but Liu Liangzuo stood up first, "Master, eat first, and I will take him into the guest hall to wait."

After saying that, Liu Liangzuo quickly walked out of the room and saw Liu Zehong coming towards him after walking a few steps.

"Master-in-chief!" Liu Zehong returned to the city and saw Liu Liangzuo, tears almost flowing out of his eyes. The trip outside the city was so damn dangerous and scary.

Liu Liangzuo came towards him, but did not pay attention to his expression. He grabbed his hand and couldn't wait to say, "What's the matter? Did Zhao Ming agree?"

Liu Zehong cried and saw the surrounding guards far away, then said, "Zhao Ming agreed, but he already knew that Bolehe was deliberately delaying."

Liu Liangzuo was furious when he heard the words and wanted to get angry, so he saw Liu Zehong wearing a bandage on the back of his neck.

For a moment, Liu Liangzuo said angrily: "You have all taken care of it."

"Everyone has been recruited! If you don't recruit your son, you won't be able to come back." Liu Zehong said: "But the Regent promised to give his father another chance. In three days, you can be exempted from death as long as you offer the city, otherwise~"

"Otherwise, what?" Liu Liangzuo pulled Liu Zehong's chest with both hands, showing a ferocious face.

"Otherwise, the inch plate will be in the market!" Liu Zehong said.

Liu Liangzuo let go of Liu Zehong and took a few steps back with pale face.

At this time, Boleh had already followed him, and he asked anxiously: "What's the situation?"

Liu Zehong looked at Liu Liangzuo, saw that he shook his head slightly, and then beat Qian'er and saluted: "Report to the master, Zhao Ming agreed and surrendered within three days."

Boleh raised his eyebrows, "Don't Zhao Zamao feel suspicious?"

Liu Zehong glanced at Liu Liangzuo again and suddenly thrust his chest, "Reported to the master, Zhao Zamao did doubt it, and even asked someone to chop off the slave, but the slave withstands the pressure and is not afraid of the danger. Zhao Zamao believed in the slave."

Bolehe saw that Liu Zehong was tied with a bandage on the back of his neck, and bright red blood oozed out.

"Oh, it turns out that the tiger father has no dog son!" Bolehe praised and hurriedly said, "Call the imperial doctor here!"

Liu Zehong beat Qian'er, "I thank my master for your care."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang outside the city, a ball of white light burst out, and then a tremor came from the direction of Guangqumen.

Bolech and others saw a huge earthquake under their feet, as if they were about to have an earthquake.

"Didn't it mean that Zhao Zamao agreed to give a three-day deadline? Why did the giant cannon hit again?" Boleh said in shock.

Liu Liangzuo hurriedly said, "Maybe Zhao Ming is still suspicious and worried that we will strengthen the city defense and deliberately delay, so he fired a bombardment."

After hearing this, Bolech was speechless for a moment. He stood for a while and suddenly nodded with a smile, "It's reasonable, but that's just right. Anyway, the outer city wall is unreliable. Let him bombard him, and it will be possible to delay it for three days."

After saying that, Bolehe glanced at the two of them and smiled and said, "Thank you tonight. Some people in this outer city have a second heart, but I still believe it. Now, I will rely on you father and son to defend the outer city. When you overcome the difficulties, you will be the benefit of your father and son."

When Liu Liangzuo heard the words, he was busy pledging to be loyal to the Great Qing Dynasty.

Bolech then immediately asked the two to go back and rest, and said that he would let the imperial doctor go directly to their mansion.

On the other hand, Zhang Dong also returned to the city and found that the Qing army and civilians were indeed building walls and digging trenches under the city wall. He couldn't help but feel happy.

This digging of trenches and walls can facilitate the concealing of the soil generated by digging tunnels, and the sounds underground can also be covered up.

I was originally worried that the excavator would be discovered if it was too loud at night. Now Zhang Dong was relieved and hurriedly told Zhang Tianfu.

The next day, the Ming army outside the city still bombarded the city wall, but no troops attacked the city.

This made Bolech think that his delaying strategy had worked, so he ordered all places to speed up the construction of earth walls and dig trenches.

As long as the fortifications are completed, even if the outer city is collapsed, you can still guard it.

At night, hundreds of Qing troops were quietly digging in a yard house on the east side of Chongwen Gate, and then transporting the soil piled up in the room away under the cover of the night to build a wall.

Outside the city, the Ming army's artillery bombardment and the Qing army's actions in the city covered the sounds underground.

There are soldiers guarding the streets and key intersections to prevent anyone from seeing them.

"Where did you dig it?" Zhang Tianfu asked.

Zhang Dong replied: "It should have been under the city."

Zhang Tianfu said: "That's what you said, you will be able to dig it out tomorrow night."

Zhang Dong said: "I'll dig it out, I'll leave the city immediately and inform the Regent."

The Qing army's attention was attracted by shelling, and was busy digging trenches, and no one paid attention to the excavation of tunnels.

At the third update of the second day, Zhang Dong climbed over the wall and reported to Zhao Ming.

At the fourth update, the fortifications in the city have not been completed.

Time was tight, and Bolech did not sleep all night. Below the city wall, he urged his soldiers to dig trenches and cast earthen walls.

In the past two days, the Ming army has been bombarding, and many outer cities have collapsed. The Qing army must complete the fortifications before the Ming army sieges the city.

At this time, a group of people were walking under the city. Suddenly, the Qing army on the top of the city exclaimed.

Bolech frowned slightly, "What's going on?"

"The Ming army gathered outside the city!" The Qing army at the top of the city exclaimed repeatedly.

Bolehe was shocked when he heard the words and hurriedly led everyone to the city. Sure enough, he saw countless Ming troops gathered outside the city.

At this moment, the Ming army outside the city roared angrily, and countless torches rushed towards the city wall.

Bolehe was shocked and turned his head, glared at Liu Liangzuo and said, "Didn't Zhao Ming say, give me three days?"

Liu Liangzuo was also shocked. He had not made up his mind and was not ready yet.

"Crown Prince, this slave doesn't know either!" Liu Liangzuo said panic.

For a moment, Boleh didn't care about so much, so he could only roar: "Hurry up, send reinforcements here, the fortifications have not been completed yet, and the required repairs must be made to guard the outer city wall."

While speaking, a wave of soldiers appeared behind everyone. Bolehe couldn't help but wonder why the troops were dispatched so quickly.

Unexpectedly, these people rushed over without saying a word and chopped the Qing army that was digging trenches and building walls.

"Brothers, you have turned against me! Capture Boleh alive!" The leader roared loudly.

Bolehe saw it, it turned out to be General Wu Ruyi, and he was shocked and confused. "General Liu, please dispatch troops quickly, send troops quickly~"

Bolehe ordered repeatedly, but no one responded. He turned his head and saw that Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zehong and his son were gone.
