After suffering heavy casualties and experiencing great shock, the Later Jin army still rushed to the city, shouting as they erected ladders and prepared to climb up to attack the city.

However, with the sounds of thuds, grunts, and "ouch"... the Later Jin soldiers below the city fell to the ground in chaos.

Before the Later Jin army could adjust, bows and arrows, three-eyed guns, fire pots, and ten thousand enemies were fired down from the city walls, smashing and shooting at the Jiannu people's heads as if they were free.

The battle entered a white-hot stage. Amidst the rising fireworks, shouts of killing shook the sky. Both the attackers and defenders were dying every moment. Life became cheap and humble at this moment.

The defenders always have some advantages due to the geographical advantages. In addition, the city has sufficient troops and the speed of internal mobilization is fast. As long as they dare to fight and not retreat, they can hold on.

Whoosh! A can of kerosene burst into flames below the city, setting the surrounding Later Jin soldiers on fire, making them scream and howl. A ladder was also set on fire.

Two Later Jin soldiers jumped down from the ladder. The Jiannu, who had already climbed close to the battlements, gritted their teeth and jumped onto the battlements with their swords raised.

Several long spears stabbed at him, and the Jiannu blocked them left and right, and was in a panic for a moment.

"Go to hell!" Along with the curse, another big gun stabbed at the chest.

Jiannu raised his shield to block, but he didn't expect the spear to be so powerful and heavy that the shield blocked it, but it also pushed him back, and his feet were empty, and he fell headfirst.

The Jiannu who fell off the city fell into the fire below and fainted for a moment.

When Jiannu woke up again, he was covered in flames. He stumbled and rolled, screaming inhumanly, scaring his companions so much that they all dodged him. After struggling for a long time, he fell to the ground motionless, with flames still coming out of his body.

"Charge, charge, charge up for me. Anyone who retreats will be killed!" Another team of Ming troops under the city rushed up to the city and joined the battle amid the roars of the officers.

A Later Jin officer jumped off the battlement, holding a shield in his left hand to protect his body, and brandishing a sword with his right hand, he chopped down two soldiers guarding the city in succession, while covering several of his companions who were also rushing up from behind.

A huge spear came crashing down with a whistling sound. The Later Jin officer raised his shield to block it, but was knocked back two steps.

In front of him was a Ming army officer wearing a helmet and armor. He glared, shouted loudly, swung his spear and stabbed again. His momentum was so great that he actually suppressed the momentum of the Later Jin officers who were climbing the city.

"Go, go, charge." Gou Zhenhuai came with several Ming soldiers as reinforcements and gathered around the Ming general. They held up their spears and swords and resisted the enemy, preventing the enemy who climbed the city from expanding the area they occupied.

Soon, the Jiannu who climbed the city wall discovered that the Ming army defending the city was really numerous, and groups of them were rushing up from the bottom of the city. If the space on the city wall was not limited, it would probably be packed.

Rows of long spears and sharp blades quickly confined them to a small space. Several three-barreled guns suddenly appeared and fired bullets at the group of Jiannu.

How despicable! The Later Jin officer was hit by two bullets and his body was shaking. In his increasingly blurred vision, he saw a figure jump up and chop at him with a big knife flashing with cold light.

The danger on the city wall had turned into safety, and the defenders, who were constantly reinforced, counterattacked the attacking Later Jin army more fiercely.

The wooden cannons were used as rolling logs, rolled down from the top of the city walls one by one, knocking down a few enemies from time to time, completing their final mission.

Ladders were overturned, set on fire, and flames were emitted in the smoke.

Cannons of all sizes were reloaded and adjusted, bombarding the Jiannu archers.

The Ming army that had just climbed the city wall raised their three-barreled guns, lit the firing pins, and fired bullets towards the city.

As the siege equipment was consumed, the offensive of the Later Jin army declined from its peak, but the number of defenders continued to increase, and they resisted more and more safely and easily.

"Sound the horn!" Daishan waved his hand and gave the order.

It was impossible to attack anymore. Almost all the siege equipment built in two days was destroyed. If we continued to attack, we would be sending ourselves to die.

Amidst the rapid sound of gongs, the Later Jin troops below the city retreated in panic. Artillery fire and arrows from the city walls pursued them, leaving behind many enemy corpses.

Roar, roar, roar! Mighty, victorious! Victorious, mighty!

The Ming army on the city wall shouted victory. Amidst the excited shouts, the general's flag was raised high and fluttered on the top of the city wall.

"General, Xiong Manzi is in the city?!" Daishan stood up straight on his horse, his eyes widened, and after careful identification, his brows wrinkled into a lump.

After a long pause, Daishan waved his hand and called over several of his personal guards, instructing them, "Go quickly to Guangning City and report to the Khan that Xiong Tingbi is leading his troops to garrison Youtunwei City, and our siege has been thwarted. The Khan will decide on the next course of action."

If the Later Jin army had raised the banner of the general strategy as soon as they arrived at the city, Daishan and others would certainly have been on high alert, but they would not have been so scared that they would not dare to attack the city.

But after the siege failed, Daishan inevitably felt that he had fallen into a trap.

He would think that Xiong Tingbi did this on purpose to lure his army into a siege, which they were not good at, so as to inflict heavy casualties.

Moreover, Xiong Tingbi, who was in charge of Shanhaiguan, was in Youtunwei City, which meant that there were quite a few troops in the city, and it was very likely that a large number of Ming troops from Shanhaiguan were assisting in the defense.

Combined with the fact that all the forts along the way were abandoned, Daishan had already guessed what was going on.

All the Ming troops in Guangning should have been concentrated in the two important places of Guangning City and Youtunwei City, ready to rely on the cities to fight against the Later Jin army.

Although Youtunwei City was not as tall and strong as Guangning City, it had a large number of defenders and was guarded by Xiong Manzi. It would be extremely difficult, even impossible, for him and Amin's three banners to capture it.

The Later Jin army retreated in disgrace, and the Youtunwei City erupted in jubilation. The defenders brandished their swords and spears, shouting their victory.

Huh! Garrison commander He Kegang leaned on the ground with his spear and exhaustedly exhaled a thick white breath.

"Brother!" A big hand patted He Kegang's back vigorously. Gou Zhenhuai's smiling face appeared, and he raised his chin and praised: "You are really good at using the big gun."

He Kegang grinned twice and said modestly: "Your Excellency has killed a powerful enemy with your swordsmanship. It is really admirable."

Haha, Gou Zhenhuai laughed heartily and nodded at He Kegang, saying, "You have a keen eye, you're a trained man. My swordsmanship is not apparent to most people, but it's quite famous. Have you heard of the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Sword?"

"I am ignorant." He Kegang was very honest and didn't know what he didn't know.

Gou Zhenhuai didn't care, nodded, and said, "I like honest people. To tell you the truth, this Five Tigers Breaking Door Knife comes from Shaolin and has been lost for a long time. It was also by chance that I learned a few moves from an old monk. Thinking back to the past..."

Zu Dashou led his personal soldiers to patrol the city and looked at the devastation below.

This ogre, who was trapped in Dalingh River for several months in history and ate most of the people in the city, stroked his beard and nodded, thinking: After this victory, the city is basically defended.
