The Qing army had to show that the army's use of spears changed the situation to a large extent.

After hundreds of people died, the Qing soldiers began to shrink back, and this was exactly the situation that the Ming army wanted to see.

Boat against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat.

The same is true on the battlefield.

Wang Ermazi was extremely excited. The soldiers regained control of the situation and drove the Tartars down the city!

Gan Hui and Li Shitou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, night attacks are a test for both sides, but the pressure on the siege side is more.

This can only mean that Jun has better adapted to the environment and won the opponent in the simplest way.

After a fierce battle overnight, the Ming army suffered heavy losses.

According to preliminary statistics, there were nearly a thousand soldiers killed in battle alone, and the number of injured soldiers was even thousands.

This is not good news for the Ming army, which has less than 30,000 combat soldiers.

Although the Qing army also suffered heavy losses, it could have sent a group of new green camp soldiers to continue to attack the city, and the Ming army could still only use these people.

There is no rotation, so I can only fight to the end!

Wang Ermazi was very guilty at this moment. If it weren't for his arrogance, these casualties might not have happened.

"I don't know when Brother Yu's reinforcements will arrive."

Yu Qi's reinforcements have now become the last hope of the Ming army in Jiaozhou.

If reinforcements cannot be waited for, it will be meaningless even if they hold on for a long time, because it is only a matter of time before the Qing army breaks the city.

"General Wang, don't belittle yourself, after all, you didn't expect so many people to come to the Tartars at that time."

Li Shitou comforted him with kind words.

He was really scared today. If Wang Ermazi had any reason, then the command of tens of thousands of soldiers in the city would be a big problem. After all, he and Gan Hui were foreign monks, and there was no way to speak in the Jiaozhou temple.

"I've thought about it. If the reinforcements are not yet enough within three days, we will go to Dengzhou by water."

Wang Ermazi sighed and finally accepted his life.

There is no way, this is not only related to his life alone, but also to the lives of thousands of soldiers.

If the sacrifices of the soldiers make sense, of course it can.

But if it is a meaningless sacrifice, Wang Ermazi will never accept it.

It seems that Jiaozhou is difficult to defend now. Since this is the case, why not retain the vitality and carry out large-scale transfers?

The ancients said it well, and the green mountains left are not afraid of burning firewood.

As long as people are there, there is hope.

The Denglai Uprising has greatly awakened the people's desire to fight, which is enough.

Do you really hope to rely on Denglai to fight against the entire Qing Dynasty alone?

Besides, isn’t there any court? The Tartars fought in the south were lost and it would be a matter of time before they could recover the south of the Yangtze River. At that time, as long as they cooperate with the emperor’s northern expedition, the lost city can still be recaptured.

Thinking about this clearly, Wang Ermazi's unwillingness became much less calm.

"Good brother, just think it through."

Gan Hui nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

He shouldn't have said this. It would be better for Wang Ermazi to figure it out by himself.

After all, talent is the most important thing, and these passionate men have no reason to die in this lonely city.

...

...

Three days later, Wang Ermazi still couldn't wait for Yu Qi's reinforcements.

This cannot be blamed on Qi. They received the news too late. When Wang Ermazi sent a messenger to Dengzhou for help, Jixiha had already faced the enemy.

Although Denglai is adjacent, it takes several days to go back and forth.

Not to mention preparing military food and grass and other matters.

It's definitely not as simple as moving your mouth.

Of course, Wang Ermazi did not blame Yu Qi either.

He respects this elder brother very much, and he believes that the same is true for his brothers.

To take a step back, if Yu Qi did not take the lead in killing the Dengzhou prefect and uprising in Qixia Mountain, Wang Ermazi would not dare to echo the uprising in Laizhou.

It can only be said that Yu Qi has fulfilled him.

Wang Ermazi gradually moved the army and the people in the city to the Shuicheng according to Gan Hui's suggestion.

The water city is directly connected to Jiaozhou Bay, and there are very sufficient ships in the bay. The addition of various ships is enough to transfer all the military, civilians and people.

It is impossible for Wang Ermazi to let go of the people's care.

As soon as these people participated in the battle to defend the city, they had already become their own people.

Secondly, Wang Ermazi was worried that the Tartars would massacre the city and vent their anger after they broke the city.

If so, wouldn’t he become a sinner for the ages?

The soldiers in charge of the palace were the most difficult. They not only had to deal with the Qing army's offensive, but also could retreat into the water city at any time and jump onto the ship to transfer.

If you act a little slower, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Of course, someone has to do this.

Li Shitou chose to stand up in times of crisis.

First of all, the Hu Ben Army has rich combat experience and the sharpest firearms. Even if the situation is not good, you can rely on the musket to shoot from a long distance to drag time.

Anyway, just retreat into the water city before the Qing army sieges the city in general.

Li Shitou's ideas are very clear and he will never fight the Tartars.

Come on, let’s come over!

I leave you an empty city, and even all the food is transported to you. How can you stand with me?

...

...

Jishiha's expression on his face was extremely complicated.

The Qing army suffered heavy losses after fighting overnight.

The soldiers' faces were filled with fear.

Is the Ming army really that scary?

Jishiha doesn't think so.

It must be because these soldiers were not skilled, so they were beaten by the Ming army.

If the quality is not enough, we can make up for it.

Jishiha decided to replace a group of green camp soldiers and continue to charge.

But Jishiha discovered a very strange scene.

The number of Ming troops on the city wall was much smaller.

Could it be that he died in the fierce battle last night?

Ji Xiha shook his head as soon as this thought came to life.

It shouldn't be.

It is logical that although the army suffered casualties, it is impossible to have such a large proportion.

Judging from the current situation, the remaining Ming army is less than 20%.

Could it be that Ming used military tactics to lure Jixiha to send the main force to fight?

After thinking about it, Ji Xiha felt that this is the only possibility left. After all, the Ming army was cunning and was likely to play with these fancy things.

call!

Ji Xiha breathed out a long sigh.

The weather was a little cold in the morning, and the fishy and salty sea breeze blew on my face like a knife.

Jixiha rubbed his palms and thought about his next plan.

Should I send all my strengths to the main force?

What if it was deliberately tempted by Ming Jun?

Then he was trapped?

It is obvious that you can get Jiaozhou at the lowest cost by grinding, so why do you have to use human life to fill it in a short period of time?

Jishiha was very confused.

There were two voices in his heart, and he hesitated for a long time and could not make a decision.

"The master can no longer see the thief on the top of the city wall!"

After being reminded by personal soldiers, Jixiha woke up like a dream.

Oh no, I've fallen into the trap!

It turned out that the Ming thieves were gradually retreating. No wonder there were fewer and fewer Ming troops on the city. What he saw just now should be the last group of people behind the palace!
