In the Western Liaoning Corridor, the Ming army has been advancing steadily since its victory at Xiping Fort. The western front even built the fort all the way to the Liao River, and has great momentum to attack the north bank of the Liao River.

Due to his meritorious service, Jin Guofeng was promoted from the deputy general of Jinzhou to the commander-in-chief of Yizhou and was stationed in Yizhou. Xiping Fort was garrisoned by Hong Chengchou.

In recent days, Jin Guofeng has been working non-stop, patrolling all the way with his Yizhou soldiers, from Dading Fort to Dakang Fort, and then to Daping Fort north of the river.

These fortresses are extremely important. They are the horns of each other and rely on each other. Once the reconstruction is completed, it will not be so easy for the Jiannu and the Mongols to move eastward and southward from Yiju.

Looking at Yiju's rammed earth city wall that was nearly 80% completed, Jin Guofeng felt uncontrollable excitement in his chest. By then, Yiju's defense would be connected with the Xiping Fort and even the Guanningjin defense line, pushing the defense line to the door of the Qing Dynasty.

Shengjing is only 200 miles away and can take the initiative in war at any time.

Suddenly, the war drums sounded and the smoke ignited. Jin Guofeng looked at the dust rolling up in the distance as usual. In the past few days, the Qing army had been harassing the construction sites for repairing the forts, starting from Xiping Fort to the foot of Yizhou City.

Not a single day sets.

Jin Guofeng was on full alert every time and led his Yizhou soldiers to prepare for the attack. Although the opponent was not weak, they never broke through Yizhou's defenses.

He has three thousand old subordinates beside him, and there are tens of thousands of Jizhou and Miyun troops in Yizhou behind him, so he feels very confident.

Jin Guofeng knocked off the dirt on the tips of his boots, got on his horse, drew out the Yanling sword from his waist, and shouted: "Brothers, come with me to fight!"

"Kill the slaves!"

The Yizhou soldiers under Jin Guofeng gathered quickly, and everyone galloped on horseback towards the Qing army coming from a distance with smoke filling the sky.

Jin Guofeng and his two sons took the lead and moved forward bravely, shouting: "Kill the slaves!"

"Kill the enemy!"

Immediately afterwards, thousands of voices echoed in unison, resounding throughout the sky and reaching into the sky.

Soon, the red and white armors collided violently, fighting each other.

As the battle continued, Jin Guofeng suddenly felt unprecedented pressure. The Eight Banners Army on the opposite side seemed completely different from the previous Qing Army.

Under the strong pressure, the Yizhou soldiers began to lose their position and even showed signs of retreating.

Jin Guofeng was anxious. He could never retreat. Behind him were the repair sites of Yiju and Dapingbao. Once he retreated to Yiju, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

Jin Guofeng ordered the messenger: "Go to Yizhou to send an order and ask General Xia Chengde to quickly lead his troops to rescue!"

After saying that, he gritted his teeth and plunged into the rebel army again. How could his servants allow the general to be in danger? Hundreds of people guarded him closely and also went in.

Under the rampage of hundreds of servants and guards, Jin Guofeng became even more brave, fighting back and forth, killing the surrounding Qing troops in pieces, and it was as if he was in a deserted land among thousands of troops.

Wherever he went, Qing troops retreated one after another, fearing that they would be beheaded by this life-hungry Ming general.

Under the leadership of General Jin, the Yiju soldiers, whose morale had gradually declined under strong pressure, rose again and successfully withstood several fierce attacks by the Qing army.

The leader of the attack this time was Dorgon's Zhengbai Banner, and some Zhengbai Banners followed the army. Dorgon did not retreat easily because of the difficulty of the Ming army, but was quite interested in Jin Guofeng's head.

Dorgon had long had a grudge against Jin Guofeng. No matter how the Qing Dynasty tried to recruit him to surrender, the man surnamed Jin would not surrender. He had the same bad temper as Zu Dashou.

Under the command of Dorgon, the Eight Banners Army launched continuous attacks, trying to completely defeat the Ming army and kill Jin Guofeng.

However, Jin Guofeng's bravery seemed to exceed the expectations of the Eight Banners Army. Faced with the fierce and unusually brave Ming army general, there was nothing he could do.

Jin Guofeng was in excellent condition. He became more and more courageous as he fought, charging and killing fiercely, leaving no trace of armor behind in his path.

However, after all, he still could not withstand the overwhelming numbers of the Eight Banners Army. As time went by, Jin Guofeng gradually felt that he was exhausted and fell into a tight siege.

He looked up and saw that there were Qing troops in all directions. The soldiers under his command retreated in waves, and Qing soldiers rushed forward again. It seemed that they would never be able to finish them off.

Seeing the soldiers around him fall down one after another, Jin Guofeng roared angrily: "Xia Chengde, why the hell haven't you come yet?"

His physical strength was gradually exhausted, the sword in his hand had long been curled, and one of his sons had even died in the battle.

"Father, my eldest brother has died in the battle. They will not come to support us. Let's break through!" his second son advised.

Jin Guofeng said bitterly: "Death means death, we can't lose it here! Fight to the death and wait for help!"

After saying that, he rode his horse again to kill the enemy.

On the wall of Yizhou City, Miyun Commander-in-Chief Xia Chengde and several other generals were watching the battle from a distance with binoculars.

Xia Chengde said: "I think it would be better for the troops from Jizhou to rescue General Jin. I am stationed in Yizhou, so I will be absolutely safe."

The commander-in-chief of Jizhou laughed and said: "General Xia's Miyun army has strong troops and horses. I still feel that it is more appropriate for General Xia to lead the army. I will not compete with you for credit. I will just defend Yizhou."

Xia Chengde snorted coldly and stopped arguing with him.

Seeing the stalemate between the two, neither of them was willing to send troops to rescue. Songshan Deputy General Zhu Wende couldn't help but said: "The last general is willing to lead troops to rescue!"

Xia Chengde was stunned for a moment, and then scolded: "If the division of troops for rescue results in Yizhou City having insufficient troops and being breached by the Qing army, will you bear the blame?"

Zhu Wende said: "There are 30,000 horses in Yizhou City, and the final general will only need 5,000!"

Xia Chengde shouted: "Shut up! It's not your turn to decide the matter of Yizhou as a deputy general, so stand down!"

He added: "It's all caused by the poop and urine of the parents. Just take it easy."

Zhu Wende was very angry, but the military orders were like mountains, and the officials at the highest level crushed people to death.

...

The battlefield outside Dapingbao is still so fierce, and the battle has entered a fever pitch.

The sword in Jin Guofeng's hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and every time he danced it, the last trace of strength in his body was taken away.

Suddenly, a heavy arrow shot from his back. Jin Guofeng felt his body tremble, and was surprised to find an arrow with blood stains piercing through the armor in front of him.

In an instant, he felt as if all his strength had been drained out of his body. Jin Guofeng felt very tired. Sweat was pouring from his forehead, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and the sword in his hand could no longer be held and fell to the ground.

"General!"

"father!"

When the servants around Jin Guofeng saw that their general was being plotted, they tried desperately to protect him, but were unable to save him. A soldier in white armor stabbed Jin Guofeng in the abdomen with a spear.

A sharp pain hit him, and Jin Guofeng suddenly opened his eyes, shouted angrily, and powerfully grabbed the spear that pierced his abdomen with his thick big hand.

This white-armored soldier had been in the army for more than ten years and had never seen such a terrifying scene before. He was so frightened that he loosened his grip and subconsciously tightened the reins of his horse and took a few steps back.

Jin Guofeng grabbed the spear, flipped his hand and pulled out the entire spearhead from his abdomen, bringing out a pool of black and red blood. With his last breath, he waved the spear stained with his own blood, slashing and stabbing...

This scene frightened the surrounding Qing troops, who all felt that the general was possessed by a ghost. No one dared to take a step forward, and they all retreated in fear for fear of being stabbed by him and losing their lives.

Jin Guofeng's dying counterattack aroused the indignation of all Yizhou soldiers, and everyone fought back desperately.

Jin Guofeng killed several Tatar soldiers in succession, and finally exhausted his life. His eyes fell into darkness, and his spear fell to the ground helplessly.

In his mind, the shouts of killing around him became smaller and smaller, until there was only dead silence.

I hope to see Huang Ming unified again in my next life...
