    Looking at the Santun Camp in front of him with bright eyes, Huang Taiji slowly raised his hand, waved it down hard, and shouted loudly: "Charge up! Take down the Santun Camp!" With the shouting,  Two men and horses quickly ran out behind Huang Taiji, carrying ladders and rushing towards the Santun camp.  When the infantry were almost gone, groups of cavalry roared out.  Each cavalryman carries a quiver on his back and holds a big bow in his hand.  This group of people were selected by Huang Taiji in the army to be good at archery. The Eight Banners disciples and Mongolians are all good at archery, and these people are the best among them.  Not only does the arrow shoot accurately, but it also shoots quickly and has a long range.  The last time we suffered a loss from the crossbows at the Santun camp, this was Huang Taiji's idea to let these people shoot arrows into the city from the opposite side of the trench.  In this way, the Ming army in the city could be suppressed, but the Ming army did not dare to raise its head. However, the range for the next ballista was still not enough, but Huang Taiji believed that the Ming army would not have many ballistas.  Standing on the city wall, Qi Jin¡¯s wife Chen quietly looked at Jiannu who was rushing towards her below, and poked the ground with the iron rod in her hand.  The blood-red cloak behind her was rustling in the strong wind, and the tassel on her head was also fluttering in the wind, but her body did not move at all, just standing there quietly.  "Daughter-in-law of the Qi family, I haven't seen you dressed like this in many years, but now you still look the same as you did back then! You were dressed like this, riding on a horse, and when that boy Qi Jin saw it, he said he wanted to marry you.  I begged the general to propose marriage. Thinking about it, it seems like it happened yesterday." Wang Quan walked to Mrs. Qi with a knife in his hand and said with emotion. "Looking back at Wang Quan, Mrs. Qi's face turned a little pale.  Hong, but still raised his eyebrows and scolded in a sweet voice: "If you hadn't been talking nonsense about how we fell in love at first sight and were committed to each other for life, I wouldn't have married this stupid guy. After all these years, you  You dare to mention it? I was so angry when I mentioned it. How dare you say it? If it weren¡¯t for Grandma Wang¡¯s sake, I would have torn your old bones apart and thrown them directly into the city!  After stepping back, Wang Quan said with a smile: "As the saying goes, if you are not a family, you don't enter the same door. If it weren't for my old Wangtou, how could you be here today? You don't even say thank you to me, and you want to tear my old bones apart?  The world is really declining, and people's hearts are not as good as they used to be!" Looking at Wang Quan's appearance, Mrs. Qi suddenly swung the stick and hit it like Wang Quan, and shouted loudly: "Learn what others say, you know these two sentences.  "What do you mean?" "Why don't I know? I've asked the teacher in Xicheng, and I'm just waiting for this time! You guys don't know how to respect your elders. You and that boy from the Qi family are the same."  !" Wang Quan said, jumping to one side, raising his legs as if walking, and talking as he walked.  There were many people on the city wall. After Wang Quan ran away, his expression became serious. He looked at the smiling soldiers around him and said loudly: "I have laughed too much. Jiannu has also come up. I tell you, who will be there soon?"  If you don't fight well, you will urinate in someone's food tonight. I tell you, fight well, the general is watching from above!" Wang Quan didn't say much, and everyone who was laughing just now became serious.  Everyone raised their heads and looked at the sky.  Under the leadership of a person, he slowly raised his hand. No one said anything, and there was no unnecessary movement. It was just such a simple movement.  When everyone lowered their hands, the atmosphere on the city wall suddenly changed, and the entire city wall was enveloped in a chilling atmosphere.  Everyone's face was dull, with bloodlust in their eyes. There was also a kind of piety in those veterans, with pious gazes in their eyes and solemn expressions on their faces.  The siege troops below the city kept running forward, and the artillery on the city finally fired. Amidst the roar of the artillery, the shouts of killing and screams were suppressed to a very low level.  Jiannu rushed through the trench like last time, and they were still greeted by crossbow arrows, but the density of the crossbow arrows was much smaller.  From this point, we can know that the number of guards in the Santun camp has been reduced a lot.  Countless people rushed forward under the rain of arrows. They were very fast, and everyone rushed forward.  These people understand that although the ballista has a long range and is powerful, it is large and heavy to carry.  Therefore, the range is fixed and can only cover one area, as long as it can rush through.  It's just that the food was too dense last time and it was impossible to rush through, but this time I was able to rush through.  On the other side of the trench, the elite archers selected by Huang Taiji were all setting up their bows and shooting arrows. Every shot of the bow was like a full moon.  Even so, most of the feather arrows still fell outside the city, and only a small part could be shot into the city.  However, even this small number of feather arrows caused casualties to the Qi family army. No one was hit by the feather arrows.  If you are lucky, you will be slightly injured. You will break the arrow and continue fighting. If you are unlucky, you will be shot to death and fall to the ground.  Screams could be heard from time to time on the top of the Santun camp, and some people fell to the ground with a muffled sound before they even had time to scream.  Blood splattered, corpses?Then he fell to the ground.  This kind of confrontation continued, but soon the battle turned into another form. Jiannu quickly passed through the Feather Arrow area and put the ladder on the city wall.  In this way, the ballista lost its function, but the feather arrows and rolling wood and stones began to work. Screams continued to sound, and people continued to die.  However, the artillery on the city kept firing, and those who were shooting arrows on the other side of the trench were all intercepted on the other side of the trench.  The battle continues, repeating monotonously, climbing up the ladder, and then being knocked down and falling to death, while the people behind are climbing up.  Looking at the battle situation, Huang Taiji frowned slightly, looked at a few people on one side, and said in a deep voice: "We can't be in such a stalemate, who of you will go? Tell those archers to abandon their horses and rush across the trench to  Go shoot arrows on the opposite side. The troops seem to be a little short now. Who is leading the five thousand infantry? " "Master Baylor, Sanko did something wrong last time. This time, Sanko is willing to take the punishment.  ." Sanke, who was on the side, came out on horseback, hugged Huang Taiji and said loudly.  "Sangke!" Before Huang Taiji could speak, Sangga on the side had already shouted, with worry written on his face.  There were 5,000 people who had just rushed up. Looking at it now, at least 1,500 people were dead. His brother was leading the people up. It was really too dangerous.  Huang Taiji looked at the two brothers and said nothing. He knew that it was better not to speak at this time and to let them make their own decisions.  "Brother, I was timid last time in Zunhua! As a warrior of the Mongolian grassland, Battle of the Zalut tribe, I can't lose this face. The shame of the past can only be washed away with victory, and I will come back alive.  !" Looking at his elder brother, Sanke looked very serious and his tone was quite firm. It was obvious that he had made up his mind.  Slowly nodded, Sangga said in a deep voice: "Brother, you have grown up! You don't have to follow your brother anymore. You are Battle of the Zalut tribe. Go! Come back with honor!" "Baylor,  Let me go!" Sanko said firmly, turning his attention to Huang Taiji again.  Nodding with satisfaction, Huang Taiji said with a face full of relief: "Okay! Sanko, you are impressive, go ahead! If you win the Santun Camp, after you go back, I will ask Father Khan to give you the title of Mongolian Battle!"  "Master Xie Beile!" With a fist in front of Huang Taiji, Sanke led the people and ran away into the distance.  By this time in the battle, four hours had passed and the sun was already in the west.  The setting sun shone on the ground, reflecting on the blood, which looked particularly bright red.  The fighting in the Santun Camp continued, with screams and killing cries loud and clear.  Since Sanko led his men to join the battle, the situation of the battle has changed. The archers broke through the blockade of the Qi Army and were already shooting upwards under the city.  After hesitating, the distance was much closer, and all the feather arrows fell into the Santun Camp.  Since an hour ago, slaves have been climbing up the city from time to time, but it didn't last long, and they were basically killed as soon as they came.  However, both Qi Jiajun and Huang Taiji understood that Santun Camp was shaken immediately. As long as this offensive continues, Santun Camp will definitely be captured.  The fighting is still going on, the fighting has not stopped, the screams and shouts of killing are still ringing, blood is splashing everywhere, and flesh and blood are flying everywhere.  After beating a Jian slave away, Mrs. Qi wiped her face fiercely. At this time, her body was covered with blood and her eyes were already blood red.  Quickly ran to Wang Quan and beat a slave to death with a stick. Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "How is it? The old guy still doesn't admit defeat? This can't be done!" "Daughter-in-law of the Qi family, you are not doing this right.  Bullying me, Lao Wangtou. I tell you, I have killed four Tatars and two Tatars. Even if they die, I have earned it." Lao Wangtou held the knife in both hands and said loudly, laughing.  said.  Looking at the Qi's army on the city wall, Mrs. Qi said worriedly: "It's no longer fun to fight like this. Jiannu is desperate. We can't afford to use people like this! We just counted the number of people, three thousand  There are less than 2,000 people left, and we can no longer hold on any longer!" Looking up at the sky in the distance, Wang Quan said with a smile: "There is no problem today, it will be dark soon!  We got through it, but Qi family daughter-in-law, if we can survive today, we may not be able to survive tomorrow. I'm here to tell you, if you really can't hold on, call the Qi family boy back!  The roots of the Qi family army cannot be broken! The city is full of women, children and children, so we cannot let Jiannu attack! Although it is important to stop Jiannu, there must be a choice when necessary!" Wang Quan looked serious as he spoke.  His words were very serious, and he may have rarely spoken like this in his life.  Looking at Wang Quan¡¯s back, Mrs. Qi slowly fell into deep thought.  (To be continued.
