The generals have all fled, and almost all of the soldiers below are injured. How can they hold on?

Some of them fled after Gu Xingzu. Some of them fought in Mao'er Village until the last minute.

But none of this mattered to Duke Cheng.

When he learned that Mao'erzhuang had been captured by Wa Ci, he swayed and almost fell to the ground.

In an instant, Duke Cheng was in despair.

It is simply that there are pursuers from behind and no retreat in front.

Some people say that it is better to go straight to the border wall in Mao'erzhuang. Even if the Waqi army in Mao'erzhuang does not come out to stop them, it is just that the horse power of the army is already exhausted.

The war horses set off from Beijing to Datong, and then to Maoerzhuang, especially galloping back and forth between Maoerzhuang and Jining Haizi, and faced the pursuit and fighting of Washi.

The horsepower consumption is extremely serious.

And the horse food is not enough.

Now is the best season on the grassland. The grass is growing and the orioles are flying. Under this environment, you only need to let the horses eat grass for a while.

Therefore, when the army was dispatched, it did not bring much horse food, but mostly some beans.

But now, these beans have long been eaten.

The war continued, and the Waci people did not allow the Ming army to stop for a moment. Unless they used the dry food that people eat to feed their horses.

But when I left the customs, I ate ten days of dry food, and now I have eaten a lot. There is not much left for everyone. If the horses eat it, what do people eat?

Under such circumstances, it is surprising that the horse can bear it.

Therefore, the food of Maoerzhuang and the city wall of Maoerzhuang are the vitality of this army.

For Cheng Guogong, he no longer had any desire to survive.

Because the battle has been fought like this, after entering the pass, he will definitely be sent to prison. What is the difference between dying here and dying outside?

In an instant, Duke Cheng Guo put his hand on the Yitian Sword and slowly pulled it out, thinking to himself: "This sword can blow hair and break hair, and cut iron like mud. But now it is perfect for beheading me.

"

"Guo Gong." Wu Jinhou Zhu Mian pressed Cheng Guo Gong's hand and said: "The matter has not reached this point."

Zhu Mian, the Marquis of Wujin, was a loyal supporter of Zhu Yong, Duke of Cheng. Along the way, the three thousand battalions were almost wiped out when they retreated. Song Ying died in the battle without even leaving his body.

All the troops suffered heavy losses, but Wu Jinhou's troops followed the Chinese army and were the only troops in the army that retained their combat effectiveness.

Zhu Yong, Duke of Chengguo, said: "What can you do now?"

Wu Jinhou showed determination in his eyes and said: "Mao'erzhuang has fallen into the hands of Wa Ci, just shoot it down."

"To put it bluntly, do the Tatars know how to defend a city?"

Cheng Guogong said: "Who is going? The time is too short."

Yes, time is short, there is no time at all.

The Wazai people held on to the army, and they were not far away from Maoerzhuang. If they could not recapture Maoerzhuang before the army arrived, it would probably be a massacre after nightfall.

The men and horses were tired. On the grassland, if there was no obstruction, the Waci people still had a lot of fresh troops.

Wu Jinhou said: "There is still some time before sunset, I will go. The Duke will just wait for the good news."

Wu Jinhou stepped back, bowed, and said, "Brother, please take care of yourself after I leave."

Looking at the battle reports from the orthodox years, most of the Dukes Cheng Guo and Wu Jinbo were linked together. Both sides were named Zhu, and they sometimes treated each other like brothers in private.

But Wu Jinhou was a man who knew what was right and would never go beyond his duty in the army.

At this moment, he said this, but it was retribution for his death.

Zhu Yong, Duke of Chengguo, opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

Having been partners for so many years, they are like right and left hands to each other. They have a deep friendship with each other. They are not brothers, but they are like brothers.

Zhu Mian, Marquis of Wujin, was also listed as one of the important members of the Jingnan Xungui Group by Zhu Qizhen.

Duke Cheng Guo now has the heart to let Marquis Wu Jin fight in such a war, and he will almost die.

Looking at the candidates who will open the way and those who will end the process, Cheng Guogong has always wanted to preserve the vitality of Jingnan Xungui. But at this moment, he can't say anything.

At this time, no one can die and no one will die.

There is even an emotion more terrifying than death, and that is regret. At this moment, Duke Cheng wished he could cut himself into pieces with his own hands.

The iron that gathers all over Jiuzhou cannot make today's mistakes.

What's the use of regret?

Wu Jinhou led his troops to get rid of the brigade and came to Maoerzhuang.

Now he found a good opportunity.

Maoerzhuang has just been defeated, and the battlefield has not yet been cleared. Boyan Timur is not here at the moment, and he has already gone to pay his respects.

However, Ye Xian urged him repeatedly, and Boyan Timur had to explain to Ye Xian in person.

Of course, there is also Boyan Tiemur who feels that the overall situation here has been decided.

The Ming army was almost a lost dog. Where could they have the strength to counterattack? Even if they counterattack, so what? Although they suffered heavy casualties when they attacked the city, there were still 20,000 to 30,000 troops on Boyantemur's side.

Although most of them are people from various tribes, there are not really many people in Wasi's headquarters. But there should be no problem in defending a city, and calculating the time after dark, Wasi's army should arrive.

Boyan Timur also had a small thought in his mind. Such a huge victory could be said to be the biggest battle that Wa Tsai had fought in decades. Even when Tuo Huan was there, he could not achieve this.

How could Boyan Timur not take more credit for such a thing? Where is the place where he really has the opportunity to take credit? That is to be around him first.

Therefore, Boyan Timur did not want to waste any more time here. He left his cronies to guard the city.

However, Wu Jinhou Zhu Mian did not know about these circumstances.

Wu Jin Hou Zhu Mian came to Mao'erzhuang about three hundred paces away. He dismounted from his horse, raised his sword and gun, and said to the people behind him: "You all know the current situation. There is nothing to say, nothing to do, nothing more.

If one dies, there may be a way to survive if one works hard.

Are you willing to wait for death, or follow me and fight for a way out?"

All the cavalrymen dismounted and lined up in front of Maoerzhuang.

Wu Jinhou said: "Good brother, just follow me."

He shouted and rushed towards Maoerzhuang on foot.

To be honest, although Wu Jinhou was born as a general, his father, old Wu Jinbo, was the guard of Daning City. He dedicated Daning City to Emperor Taizong and laid the foundation for Emperor Taizong's victory in Jingnan. Wu Jinbo also served as a subordinate.

Riding and shooting are both good.,

It's just that he is old.

He is also in his fifties, a few years younger than Duke Cheng. In Duke Cheng's mind, if he goes to the cabinet, he hopes that Wu Jinhou Zhu Mian will be in charge of the capital camp. The relationship between them is like the relationship between the British Duke and the Duke of Cheng.

The relationship between Cheng Guogong is the same.

As a person in his fifties, even when he was young, no matter how much he could charge and kill, he still feels powerless now.

But nothing matters at this moment.

The setting sun is already very close to the horizon.

Within half an hour, the army arrived.

Therefore, Marquis Wu Jin knew that he only had one chance to attack, because those coming with the army must be the Waqi cavalry. With the Waqi cavalry here, it would be a dream to capture Maoerzhuang.

Therefore, he can only fight hard.

Under the setting sun, a naughty white hair popped out from under the helmet. As Wu Jinhou strode forward, a bead of sweat fell on the loose soil on the ground.

In an instant, it rolled into a ball of dust and disappeared, and then countless straight feet stepped on this piece of floating soil, shaking all the sand on the ground again.

Countless soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, as silent as dead men, followed Wu Jinhou's footsteps and rushed towards the short city wall.

Arrows were like rain, and countless arrows hit the heads of the Ming army.

Although many people fell down on the spot, more people carried several arrows, which no longer prevented them from moving forward.

The Ming army stepped on the corpses left behind by the tiles and approached the city wall.

The Ming army built a human wall and climbed the city wall amidst the rain of arrows.

After all, Maoerzhuang's city wall has not been maintained for a long time. Very tall grass has long grown on the city wall, and the outside of the city wall is not smooth at all, but has pits.

Good for climbing.

Marquis Wu Jin rushed to the top of the city under the guidance of his own soldiers.

For a time, the whole army was overjoyed and the cheers were loud.

Marquis Wujin also couldn't believe it, but he had to believe that it was not only Marquis Wujin who took the lead and was determined to die, but also the Mongols who really didn't know how to take advantage of the city.
