Immediately, he led the Jimen Town troops and other troops to approach Changle. This time, there was no artillery blocking them. Their speed was very fast and they soon joined the Ming army ahead.

With the addition of the second echelon, the Ming army, which had been beaten to a little shaken, gradually stabilized its position and was unhappy. This was the mentality of most soldiers. Seeing that their own troops were increasing, the enemy could not increase their troops, and they had the confidence to win again.

Then, under the command of officers at all levels, they began to try to extinguish the fire caused by ten thousand enemies thrown from the city, intending to attack the city again.

Even though people still keep falling down, with the hope of victory, they are full of motivation. The flames that were about to burn for a while were quickly extinguished.

When Kong Youde saw this, he immediately started fighting.

I didn't plan to use it before, but now I have to go on the court. The Ming army's command system is still in operation. They must knock out their command system to make them [Update Fast] fall into complete chaos and reduce the pressure on defense.

Although these snipers are not large, less than 200, they are all elite soldiers in the army. They have excellent marksmanship and are more training than other troops on weekdays. The bullets used for training alone are three times that of normal soldiers, so as to ensure that they accurately shoot and kill enemies on the battlefield.

Their goals are also very clear, that is, those with high value goals, the highest priority is the middle and senior officers of the enemy. This is easy to identify. In wars these days, officers are easy to identify because they are not easy to identify, so they cannot command on the battlefield.

In the past, this was not a disadvantage. After all, it rarely happened to shoot commanders accurately from a long range, and even if there were, it was very rare. The most famous one was Zhang Gui shot Xiao Talin with a three-bow crossbow and two or three miles away, which led to the Chanyuan Alliance.

Therefore, these officers were not prepared for this, but they didn't know that they had become the target chosen by the snipers and would immediately have their lives to worry about.

In addition to middle and senior officers, the second target of snipers is the enemy's sharpest archers and musketeers, as well as grassroots officers. As for how to choose, it depends on their personal choice. Sometimes, a precise archer may have a longer threat than a few, and even a team is threatening.

With the entry of the snipers of the Tiance Army, the Ming army, which had gradually gained the advantage, was gradually suppressed.

One after another, officers died under snipers, and even with the protection of personal soldiers, it was difficult to survive.

At the same time, those Ming army archers who caused a large number of casualties to the soldiers on the city were also given priority care, and the casualties quickly rose.

Changle's battle is now a collision of strength, it all depends on who is stronger and can withstand pressure.

The battle never stops, and no one can stop just by trying to stop. If the enemy cannot be killed, they will be killed by the enemy. With this belief, the soldiers on both sides attacked each other wildly.

Roars, explosions, scoldings, moans, etc. filled the entire battlefield. Now the soldiers on both sides are fighting by instinct.

The Ming army kept trying to advance, transporting the ladder behind, replacing the broken ladder in front, and then climbing towards the city. However, the Tiance army guarding the city continued to use ten thousand enemies to block their attack.

When they throw these things, they will be attacked by Ming archers and musketeers. Those who are unfortunately shot will fall from the top of the city, and they are even a little unlucky. They were originally putting explosive packs or ten thousand enemies, but they were shot by the enemy's bows and arrows. The ignited explosive packs or ten thousand enemies will detonate at the top of the city, and instantly reimbursed the Tiance army around them.

The casualties on both sides are rising rapidly.

But now no one cares about this. Whether it is Kong Youde or Liu Yulie, they are waiting for the moment when the other party can't hold on, or some other situation will occur to end the battle.

All the generals are also doing their own things. Some are only good at fighting, some are responsible for replacing reserve troops, and some are responsible for transporting the wounded to treat them. In short, no one is idle.

Judging from the voice, the battles in several other camps were equally fierce. The Ming army kept launching fierce attacks on these places, and the guards of Tiance army were also fighting hard.

It had been half an hour since Mou Wenshou led his army to reinforce, but there was still no big progress, which made Liu Yulie very confused. He made up his mind to take Changle and destroy Kong Youde, but he sent more than 40,000 people but still did not see any hope of victory.

He was hesitating now whether to send the last 20,000 troops to the ground.

After hesitating for a long time, he made up his mind to take out the last 20,000 troops and take a gamble. He didn't believe that he could not defeat Changle City.

But now the west city wall is in a saturation state. The city wall is less than 230 feet wide, and has gathered 30,000 to 40,000 troops. If the troops are sent, they can only stare at me, which will not have any effect.

To increase troops, you can only attack the north and south sides. However, the mines in these places will cause a large number of casualties to the siege troops. However, if the troops are not increased, it is impossible to capture Changle City.

"Come on! Launch the general attack!"

"Break through the city gates on both sides of the north and south, Liu Bangyu led his team to attack the north side, and Zu Zeyuan and Lu Yan led their troops to attack the south side!"

"All soldiers and horses participated in the attack, the cavalry dismounted the infantry battle, the artillery took swords and gave them all!"

"Those who catch the Confucius thief will be promoted to five levels, and will be rewarded with tens of thousands of taels of silver!"

Without much hesitation, Liu Yulie made up his mind.

If you take a big bet, he will be free if you win. The remaining rebels don’t have to worry about it. The generals below can handle it themselves. If you lose, he will be free, and he will be completely free. He will no longer have to rack his brains for these messy things.

Liu Bangyu, Zu Zeyuan and others were a little reluctant to do so. They also knew about Gao Guang and Shaoyang, who led their troops to charge and were killed and injured by landmines. Now that they are asked to attack from the north and south, they are likely to face the threat of these landmines again, and they are also somewhat instinctively resisting.

They can only infer how many landmines the enemy has buried and where they are placed based on experience. If the enemy does not act according to common sense and bury the landmines in some strange places, they are likely to step on the landmines.

Resistance is to resist, but the order still needs to be executed. Now this is the case and they can no longer retreat.

At worst, I could stay away and wait for the troops in front to charge. They quickly joined the attack on Changle City with their own troops.

With the addition of these 20,000 soldiers, the pressure on the Tiance Army increased sharply. Fortunately, the mines that had been buried long ago played a certain role, delaying the attack speed of the Ming army and buying time for the rear dispatch of troops.

Not long after, the north and south sides were also in a hard battle. The Ming army attacked from three sides and the Tiance army defended from three sides. Both sides fought for hard strength, and whoever could not withstand first would lose.

The entire battle did not end in a short time like other battles. The artillery battle started from Chenshi to Shenshi, and for the entire four hours, both sides fought bloody battles.

The Tiance Army soldiers defending the city wall have also changed one after another. Some were killed by the enemy, some were exhausted and forced to rotate. The artillery also had to be rotated because of the heat of the gun barrel, which greatly reduced the fire density.

However, the Ming army suffered a considerable loss, and with the obstacles blocked, the offensive momentum was not as good as the beginning. The corpses outside the city wall had accumulated ten feet high, and some places had accumulated one or two feet of blood in the tunnels blown out by explosives, but they still couldn't attack.

Liu Yulie was also becoming more and more anxious. Not only was Changle's offense blocked, but the offensive in other aspects basically made no progress.

The original plan was to bloom in the five directions, and to launch an attack on the five strongholds of the Tiance Army at the same time, and strive to defeat each one. As long as there is a breakthrough in one place, the troops can be concentrated in Changle. First, increase the siege force, and second, boost morale.

As a result, in other aspects, they also fell into hard battles. These rebels were equally strong, defending to the death, and there were many strange traps, causing heavy casualties in the offensive troops.

Especially in Shouguang, the rebels in the city turned out of normalcy and took the initiative to go out of the city to launch an anti-raid, which caused not much disruption of the attack rhythm. The attacking troops also lost more than a thousand people in vain, and their morale was extremely low.

Looking at the increasingly taller corpses piled up in front of them, the smoke of gunpowder that was permeated throughout the battlefield, even the smell of barbecue, the broken city walls and the incomplete city heads, Liu Yulie felt deep despair.

Yes, he no longer sees hope for victory. So far, the soldiers and horses lost at least 13,000 to 10,000 troops under Changle City, and the rest are exhausted. Even if they continue to fight, it will be useless.

He thought of withdrawing his troops, but what about after the withdrawal?

It was originally decided for one battle, but now I can't fight in one battle, and I have no chance to win any more.

Suddenly, a subordinate reported that he rushed to the southwest direction, saying that he was a Zhuozhou soldier affiliated with Xiao Bai, and shouted to see the Governor.

There were not many guards around Liu Yulie, so he stopped them, checked them routinely, confirmed their identity, and confiscated their weapons before bringing them to Liu Yulie.

When the leaders met, they knelt down and said, "Mr. Supervisor, it's not good. Our army's attack on Lingshan camp was blocked. General Xiao Shen came to the front line to command. Unfortunately, he was shot and the army fell into chaos! The rebels broke out from the camp. Our army is now defeated. Please send troops to rescue them, otherwise the entire army will be wiped out!"

When Liu Yulie heard his story, he was shocked. The thing he was most worried about happened. The rebels were indeed not that easy to deal with.

But then his expression calmed down, as if this matter had no effect on him at all. He raised his head and looked blankly at the sky, looking a little decadent and a little bit like seeing through the world.

Everyone didn't know what the situation was, but they didn't bother him. They thought Liu Yulie was thinking about countermeasures and dealing with the situation in front of him.

After a half cup of tea, Liu Yulie regained his majesty and said in an uninhibited tone, "Come on, the Super Biao Battalion is ready for battle!"

"I will go to fight in person, eliminate these invading enemies, and the Supervisor Battalion will follow my Supervisor to fight!"

Gao Qiqian saw him like this and immediately panicked and quickly persuaded him, "Supervisor, you must not. If you want to take charge of the overall situation, how can you kill the enemy in person? If you have a few shortcomings and no one will command this battle, wouldn't it be a big mistake?"

"I know the military, you and I don't deceive myself anymore in the current situation! After I leave, the battle situation will be temporarily left to you to control. How to make a decision depends on you alone! You and I know each other a lot, and I am the one who I trust the most. I will ask you for the rest of the matter!"

After saying that, he asked someone to hand over the Governor's seal, surrender himself, and give it to Gao Qiqian, and let him keep it on his behalf.

Gao Qiqian did not persuade him anymore, but said with tears in his eyes, "Supervisor, take care!"

Liu Yulie also replied, then rode on the war horse, resolutely took the Super Biao Camp, and rode towards Lingshan, which was a very slight atmosphere of a hero leaving forever.

Gao Qiqian, who was still there, was also sad. He couldn't see how he could not see that Liu Yulie took the initiative to die.

In other words, he is seeking liberation, and death is his way of liberation.

But he couldn't stop it at all, and he also knew that the current situation was whether Liu Yulie was there or not was a solution, and he ended up with defeat in the end.

Liu Yulie did this to protect his family. The current situation is basically unsolvable. The siege was blocked and the losses were heavy. It is said whether he could retreat smoothly. Even if he could retreat, could Liu Yulie turn the world around?

Even if Liu Yulie was Han Xin's resurrection, such a bad situation would at most be able to withdraw back to Qingzhou safely and then keep Qingzhou. It would be impossible to destroy the Tiance army.

Even so, can he, Liu Yulie be safe and sound?

It is simply impossible. Thinking about Yu Dacheng, he was just a passive response. After the Tiance army conquered Dengzhou City, he was dismissed from fame and fortune, and became a military household in Leizhou Guards.

From a dignified chief official to a military household in the garrison with an underground status, it was not something that Liu Yulie could accept, let alone becoming a military household was just a luxury, and his fate would definitely be even more miserable.

Liu Yulie, who held 130,000 heavy troops, can be said to be the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty. The court gave him high hopes. Not only did he provide sufficient food and salary, the emperor even took out most of the red-clothed cannons on the top of Beijing to suppress the rebellion, and also gave him many powers, which shows his great determination.

In the end, not only did they fail to eliminate the rebels, but they also lost nearly half of these soldiers. The rebels' activities expanded from Denglai to the entire Shandong. According to the current emperor's temper, it would be light to kill him. Even if he was killed by the nine clans, it would not be surprising.

In contrast, Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, had a much greater mistake in the process of the rebels' capture of Dengzhou than Yu Dacheng. However, because he was "dead in battle" in Dengzhou, he was not only fine, but also received a posthumous title from the court, and his family was safe and well and was given a pension.
