3 The Tartars broke the city

[Lao Yun’s new book, please collect and recommend it!]

The sight turned back to Xingzhou, and the Tartars had already set their sights on Xingzhou.

The Tartars tentatively attacked several times during the day, but although they did not attack Xingzhou, they also allowed the Tartars to find out the reality and reality of Xingzhou City.

After dark, after the Tartars' Han flag infantry and Mongolian soldiers arrived outside Xingzhou City, the Tartars finally had the strength to capture Xingzhou City.

In fact, at this time, the chief general of the Tartar Army, Azige, had ordered the Tartar Army that had entered the pass to prepare for retreat.

After all, it has been nearly four months since the Tartars entered the pass this time.

In this short period of time, the Tartars had been invincible. No Ming army dared to compete. They conquered more than a dozen cities in the Ming Dynasty, captured nearly 200,000 people and animals, and countless gold, silver and jewelry.

For the Tartars, the purpose of their entry into the pass has been achieved. All that remains is to protect the money, food, people and animals they plundered, and return safely outside the pass.

Therefore, Xingzhou City was also the last city that the Tatars targeted. The one responsible for attacking Xingzhou City was a group of troops from the Tatars's Zhenghong Banner. The leader was a Jialajingzhang named Aleye.

After dawn, more than 6,000 Tartar soldiers outside the city launched a fierce attack on Xingzhou City. This time, the Tartars' offensive was much more violent than before.

After all, the previous ones were all Tartar cavalry, which was not suitable for siege.

But now, with the arrival of a Han flag infantry and Mongolian horses, the Tatar army's ability to siege cities has greatly increased.

Zhu Yong was still in the dilapidated temple in the city at this time. After knowing that the Tartars had siege at dawn, Zhu Yong's heart was raised again.

"We must hold on. Only when the reinforcements sent by Lu Xiangsheng arrived will I be safe!"

Zhu Yong was praying for the officers and soldiers guarding Xingzhou City in his heart.

At the same time, Zhu Yong also sent his newly acquired younger brother Xiao Liuzi to inquire about the city gate area.

Until the afternoon, although the attack of the Tartars outside the city had not stopped, the magical thing was that the small Xingzhou City actually defended.

But in fact, the Ming army that refused to guard Xingzhou City at this time was already at the end of its strength.

The county magistrate of Xingzhou City was a little old man named Yu Youren. He personally led thousands of Ming troops and more than 3,000 young and strong men to defend the city, and fought extremely tenaciously.

However, under the fierce attack of the Tartars, Yu County Magistrate and his two sons were killed one after another, and the Ming soldiers and young soldiers were also seriously injured.

At dusk in the afternoon, the Tartars still attacked Xingzhou City.

Xiao Liuzi, who was inquiring about the news near the city gate, saw that the city was broken and the Tartars entered the city, ran desperately towards the ruined temple where Zhu Yong was.

"Boss, it's not good, the city is broken!"

Xiao Liuzi ran back to the ruined temple desperately and shouted at Zhu Yong.

"What, did the Tartars kill into the city?"

Zhu Yong also stood up suddenly and asked in horror.

"Huhu, yes...yes, the southern city gate... is lost, the Tatars army rushed in, and I heard that County Magistrate Yu had also died in battle."

Xiao Liuzi stood in front of Zhu Yong, and said in a pissy manner, his eyes flashing with fear, and even his voice trembling.

"Damn it, why were you killed by the dog Tartars?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yong said angrily, and what is more important is to worry about his life.

"Boss, what should we do now? I heard that those Tartars all kill people without blinking, and I don't want to die yet!"

Xiao Liuzi said with a sad face.

"What nonsense is it? Don't worry, follow me and you won't die.

Besides, although the Tartars were brutal and bloodthirsty, this time they entered the pass mainly to plunder the population and would not kill all of us people.

Therefore, compared with the officers and soldiers in the city, the identities of our people are safer.

Let’s find a way to hide first. It would be best if you can escape the search of Tartar soldiers entering the city and try to escape from the city.

If you can't escape, don't resist when you meet the Tartar soldiers, remember that life is the most important thing."

Zhu Yong thought quickly in his heart and said to Xiao Liuzi, who was frightened and restless next to him.

At the same time, Zhu Yong calculated the time in his mind. It had been a day and a night since he asked Wang Chengen to order Lu Xiangsheng.

After such a long time, if Lu Xiangsheng sent an elite cavalry, he would have been about to arrive in Xingzhou.

"God bless you, reinforcements will arrive quickly."

Zhu Yong continued to pray that if reinforcements were not available, he would not accept it whether they were captured by the Tartars or killed by the Tartars.

Step by step!

At the south gate of Xingzhou City, a large number of Tartar cavalry rushed into the city. The Tartar soldiers grinned and waved their long swords to kill the defeated officers and soldiers and young men, killing the addicted Tartar soldiers, and even ordinary people did not let go.

Soon, with a large number of Han flag infantry and Mongolian soldiers behind the Tatar soldiers also entering the city, the entire Xingzhou city suddenly fell into chaos.

"His grandma's, a small Xingzhou City, actually caused me to lose more than a dozen children and more than six hundred soldiers. These Ming dogs deserve to die."

This Tatar Jia Lajingzhang, named Aleye, rode on his horse and entered Xingzhou City, with a bad look.

Because the magistrate of Xingzhoucheng County led more than 3,000 officers and soldiers to fight to the death, the Tatar soldiers lost more than 600 soldiers in order to invade Xingzhou City.

In fact, most of the soldiers who were killed and injured were from Han Banners, and as for the real Tartar soldiers, only a dozen people were killed or injured.

But even so, Alerye was still unhappy.

"Send the order to block the city gates everywhere, and prevent the people in the city from escaping.

Collect money and food in the city, arrest all the people in the city, and take them away. I will evacuate them tomorrow.

Prince Duluo Wuying has ordered a retreat, so we cannot leave it for too long.”

Aleye issued an order.

"twitter!"

Several Tartar generals behind Aleye immediately knelt down and responded.

"Ah, help me!"

As it darkened, fires rose everywhere in Xingzhou City, howlings, screams, and help were heard throughout Xingzhou City.

The Tartar soldiers who entered the city were divided into teams of people and killed whenever they encountered resistance.

Then, these Tartar soldiers broke in from house to house, searched the money and food from the people in the city, and captured women, children and young men.

Money, grain and population are the two things that the Tartars must seize when entering the pass and value the most.

As for some old, weak, sick and disabled people in the city, they were all ruthlessly killed by the Tartars because these old, weak, sick and disabled people were useless to them.

"mother!"

In a courtyard, a middle-aged man roared and witnessed the long sword of a Tartar soldier in front of him stabbing his elderly mother's body.

At this moment, the middle-aged man could no longer bear it. He roared, then picked up a stick in the yard and rushed towards the Tartar soldier in front.

"Beast, I've fought with you."

Puff!

Unfortunately, after a moment, a stream of hot blood soared into the air. The middle-aged man who rushed over covered his throat with his hands, his eyes were dissipated, and he fell down with a "thump".

"act recklessly."

The Tartar soldier sneered, looked at the falling body of the middle-aged man and said in Tartar.

"Grandma, dad!"

Not far away, a boy of eight or nine years old cried sadly, trying to rush over, but was hugged by a middle-aged woman behind him.

"Qing'er, don't go there."

The middle-aged woman looked sad, tears flowed from her cheeks, and she could not do anything when she watched her husband and mother-in-law being killed.

But at this time, the middle-aged woman could only hold her son and prevent him from rushing over, trying to save her son's life.

"take away!"

The Tartar soldier looked at the living middle-aged woman and boy, and ordered several Han flag soldiers behind him.

Things like this are happening at any time in the entire Xingzhou City at this time.

Even some people who resisted fiercely annoyed the Tartars and were killed by the Tartars.

The city was full of chaos, and Tartar soldiers could be seen everywhere. Zhu Yong, Xiao Liuzi and several beggars, were hiding and hiding.

Originally, Zhu Yong planned to escape from other gates while the Tartars had just entered the city.

But as a result, the Tartars were faster. Before Zhu Yong could lead his men to slip away from other city gates, the other city gates of Xingzhou City were occupied by the Tartars.

Zhu Yong was trapped in Xingzhou City. He didn't hide for long before he met a team of Tartar Han soldiers.

"Catch them all for me."

After discovering Zhu Yong and his group of seven or eight, a general of the Tartar Han Banner issued an order to the soldiers behind him.

"Escape!"

Looking at the Tartar soldiers approaching him, Zhu Yong was frightened, but he still responded in time, turned around and ran away, and shouted to remind others around him.
