"Master, you can't fight anymore, please withdraw your troops. Today, there are more than 2,000 soldiers. Now we can fight only 6,000 soldiers. Even if we attack the city tomorrow, we will probably not exceed 5,000 soldiers. The total strength of the Ming army is 15,000. Even if there are several thousand casualties, there are more than 10,000 people. Judging from their will to resist today, they are not weak at all. We may not be able to get it well by then. Moreover, where did the 15,000 naval army of Lin Cha go, we know nothing. If we are really caught, there may be an unexpected disaster." Li Chengyin advised.

"Yes, deputy commander, I feel bad about my position. The key is that there are not many food and grass and arrows, and the damaged weapons cannot be repaired in time. Please withdraw them." Yuan Pengnian also agreed with Li Chengyin's proposal.

Li Chengdong looked at Sun Zhongming, and Sun Zhongming said: "Deputy Commander, the morale of the soldiers has also been affected."

Li Chengdong sighed after hearing this, "Oh, I'm really unwilling to accept it. When did the Ming army have such strong combat power? I really don't understand what Yongli promised them, and Chen Jitai fought so hard?"

"Okay, the situation is really not conducive to the fight. Let's take a night off today and withdraw troops tomorrow." Li Chengdong continued.

...

There are unexpected winds and clouds in the sky, and the moon has phases.

After nightfall, Li Chengdong had not yet fallen asleep for a long time.

He was worried about future events.

Since I led a 20,000 army into Guangdong, the initial stage has been smooth, but it has not been smooth at all when I attacked Guangzhou. I have attacked two cities in four days, losing 3,000 people, and exhausted the food, grass and arrows, but there is no record at all.

The loss of soldiers and generals was defeated and returned in vain. This was obviously a defeat. Victory and defeat were common in military affairs, and if they were defeated, they would be defeated. But the key is that Zhu Youlang put his adopted son back with great fanfare and cut off his braids. Will Tong Yangjia doubt? What about Boluo? How will the court deal with it?

The court was a Manchu court, not a Han court. He had always been very suspicious of Han ministers and had very strict precautions. It is conceivable that if you are defeated like this, you may not get anything better.

Surrender to Yongli? Not that it is impossible, but can he become a climate? Yin'er admires him, and it is considered a little bit of a pattern to see his actions. The two armies have been fighting each other these days, and he has not obtained any advantage, which shows that his ability is extraordinary.

However, based on these things, it is too early to conclude that he can achieve something.

Otherwise, after going back, I would give Tong Yangjia more gifts and ask him to give him more beautiful words?

However, this time I came out, there was not much money.

After thinking about it, I feel sad.

Suddenly, when he heard the sound of wind outside the tent, Li Chengdong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly sat up, put on his clothes and came out of the tent, and a few drops of raindrops hit his face. Li Chengdong was ecstatic: "Hahaha, it's really a way out!"

"Come here, please invite Lord Yuan and General Sun to discuss matters in the account."...

At the same time, in Sanshui City, Chen Jitai was also urgently summoning the generals to discuss matters.

The light rain was not heavy, but the plan to burn the ladder was no longer useful. Obviously, Sanshui City was in danger.

Everyone's faces were very serious.

"All the generals, tomorrow's battle will not only affect the safety of Sanshui, but also the success or failure of the entire strategic plan formulated by the emperor, but also the parents, wife, children, and their lives! Everyone must show their desperation and must not let the Qing soldiers climb to the city. Even if they die, they are not allowed to take a step back!"

"Don't worry, uncle, we will save all the benefits and will not be a coward!" Yang Dali said loudly.

"Oh, the last general sees that the soldiers are just like this. They are not as powerful as the legend. Apart from multiple braids, what's the difference between us? We have the advantage of the number of people, and we have more than one fight, so how can we be afraid of them?" Luo Zhaocheng was full of confidence.

"General Luo, you guard the South Gate. This is the main attack direction of the Qing army. The burden is not light. Let Zhongwu lead the troops to assist you and be under your command. My name leads the central army to support you." Chen Jitai said.

"No, Master, I can handle it. Let Zhongwu protect you." Luo Zhaocheng rejected Chen Jitai's kindness.

"Okay, stop talking. My Lord's safety lies in the victory or defeat of this battle. If you win, my Lord will be safe. If you defeat... I will apologize for my death." Chen Jitai said.

Chen Jitai understood that the emperor did not pursue his rebellion, did not pursue his crime of not obeying military orders, and he also concealed himself from his subordinates. If Sanshui could not be protected, it would affect the development of the entire war situation. Only by sending the head back to Guangzhou can he probably save his family.

Was Pan Duoshou's head given for free?

"Brother, according to the general's view, the Qing army is at the end of its strength. The emperor's decree clearly stated that our army withstood the Qing army for two days. The general's estimates that the emperor limited the two days because he had already arranged the arrangements and Guangzhou could not draw out the army. What about Lin Cha's navy? As the general expected, the emperor must be writing a big article. Therefore, as long as we persist for one day tomorrow, the situation of the war will probably change greatly." Li Desi analyzed.

Chen Jitai nodded.

He admires the current atmosphere, where everyone is united and works together, and what he says - it is completely different from his rebellion when he was rebelling.

"Yes, the last general also agrees with General Li's words. Another point is that when the Qing soldiers come from afar, there will definitely be insufficient food and grass, and the weapons and arrows cannot be replenished in time. As long as they survive today, they will probably be finished. What else can they do besides withdrawing their troops?" Yan Shuli said.

Seeing that his subordinates were very optimistic and had no fear of fighting at all, Chen Jitai was very pleased: "Okay, let's compete with Li Chengdong tomorrow to see who can hold on to the end! Although the time is not there, I have the advantage of the terrain and the better the people. The longer the fight lasts, the more beneficial it is to me. In this way, we have a great chance of victory. However, the Qing soldiers have very strong combat power, so don't underestimate them at all. My name is afraid that the soldiers can't stand it, and they will be in trouble if they touch it. Therefore, after you return to the camp, you will immediately summon your soldiers and generals to explain the situation clearly and boost your morale. The more you are afraid of death, the faster you will die, and you will be afraid of losing your life?!"

"Abide by the order!"

The "Four Great Hells" answered in unison.

...

On the thirty day, it was raining lightly, and the battle that concerns the fate of the coaches of both sides began.

The Ming army lost its muskets and torches, and the calculation of burning ladders was aborted.

If you can't take shortcuts, you can only fight hard.

Head-on battle, the Ming army was not the match between the Qing soldiers. The Qing soldiers were all in the battlefield for a long time, fearless fighting will, and the strong battlefield discipline, quickly gained the upper hand in the confrontation.

Although the Ming army had already been mentally prepared to die, when it was really at the critical moment of life and death, it was still panicked and in chaos.
