I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

There was already chaos in the south of Chahanhot City. Seeing this, Hong Lengtaiji, who was in charge of the defense, quickly called his soldiers to come forward and be sure to block the collapse of the city wall to prevent the Ming army from entering.

But as He Shixian said, the Ming army was already ready.

From the moment the city wall collapsed, with Haixi Camp and Yaowu Army as the vanguard, they attacked directly towards the city wall.

Especially the soldiers of the Haixi camp, they are all veterans who have experienced the great victory of Sarhu, and now they are completely familiar with the attack on Chahanhot.

Therefore, under the leadership of Tunbulu and others, and under the cover of artillery, the soldiers of the Haixi camp marched forward bravely. The Yaowu army took Huang Degong and others as the vanguard. Zhu Daoxin, Sun Xinji and others also took the lead, leading the people to follow closely behind the Haixi camp. Behind the Jurchen soldiers.

"Whoosh whoosh~"

Tunbulu and others held bows and arrows in one hand and moved forward while shooting arrows. In addition, Yaowu Army's artillery also adjusted their angles and continuously bombarded the city of Chahanhot. The pressure was so heavy that the defenders could not even lift their heads. Therefore, Tunbulu and others He quickly rushed up to the cave-in.

"The city of Chahanhot has been destroyed. Attack the Golden Dome White Temple and capture Lin Dan Khan alive!"

"kill!"

Hearing that Tunbulu and others had entered the city first, the morale of the people behind him greatly increased. They followed closely, rushed into the cave-in, and fought with the Chahar defenders.

When Hong Lengtaiji saw that the Ming army was so brave and unafraid of death, he rushed into the city and immediately panicked.He now finally understood why Mang Gusi and others were defeated by the Ming army.The Ming army is so brave, it is surprising that Mang Gusi and others can win.

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on his head, and he shouted to the guards on the side:

"Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?"

"I don't know. The boys have already sent people to ask for help. They should be here soon."

Upon seeing this, Hong Lengtaiji also turned his head and looked towards the city, only to see that the city was also in chaos.The more he watched, the more anxious he became. He knew very well that the Mongols were only suitable for riding and shooting, and were not suitable for infantry fighting at all, let alone defending the city. , and the Ming army is so brave, there is only a dead end if this continues.Thinking of this, he immediately looked at Wanhuguan Kebali aside.

"Kebali, I'm going to find the Khan to mobilize reinforcements now. You must defend the south of the city for me to the death and don't let the Ming army attack."

"Don't worry, Mr. Taiji, even if I try my best, I won't let the Ming army succeed!"

Hong Lengtaiji nodded solemnly upon hearing this, then quickly mounted his horse and led his guards to the Golden Summit White Temple.When he arrived at the Golden Dome White Temple, he saw that the inside of the White Temple was already in chaos. Lin Dan Khan's guards were constantly coming in and out. When he saw this, he hurried in and saw many Chahar Taijis surrounding Lin Dan Khan. .

"Khan, where are you going?"

"Hong Leng, you came just in time. Now the city of Chahanhot has been defeated. The city cannot be defended. I have decided to retreat temporarily and plan for it slowly."

Hong Lengtaiji looked at Lin Danhan in disbelief, really feeling sad for his misfortune and angry for his inability to argue.

What time is it now? Instead of thinking about arranging troops to stabilize the morale of the army, I still want to run away.He was about to yell out loud, but the overwhelming anger and disappointment in his heart actually made him calm down.

He suppressed his anger and spoke sincerely again:

"Khan, you are a bloodline of the Golden Family. You can't be like this. Although the Ming army has destroyed the city, if we concentrate our forces on defense, we might still be able to hold it. By then it will be too late to run away. If you run now, the morale of the army will be greatly disturbed. , the city will be destroyed in a matter of seconds."

Lin Danhan was a little ashamed when Hong Lengtaiji said this, but now that the matter was over, he didn't care anymore.He was even said to have failed. Since he was beaten by the Horqin people and ran away once last time, and now he ran away for the second time, he felt a lot less pressure.

"You said that if you keep the green mountains, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. It is precisely because I am a bloodline of the Golden Family that I must preserve the dignity of the Golden Family and not be captured by the Ming army. If you don't leave, stay and defend the city. Let's go."

After Lin Danhan finished speaking, he immediately turned around and headed towards the north gate regardless of Hong Leng's reaction. Upon seeing this, other nobles also looked at Hong Leng and followed closely behind.Hong Leng looked at Lin Danhan's retreating back, feeling resentful and helpless in his heart, and finally murmured to himself:

"This is the Khan of our Mongols. Chahar's invincibility is unacceptable."

But having said that, he still hoped that Lin Danhan could still run away. After all, if he died, the whole of Mongolia would be in chaos again.But he didn't want to leave anymore, so he immediately asked his soldiers to gather soldiers and horses in the city who were still willing to resist, and go with him to the south of the city for a decisive battle.

Although Hong Leng wanted to fight to the death, the Ming army did not give him a chance to react.

"kill!"

While Hong Leng was looking for Lin Danhan, soldiers from the Haixi Battalion and Yaowu Battalion rushed into the cave in a steady stream, quickly occupied the south city wall, opened the city gate, and marched into the city.

Although Kebali wanted to resist desperately, he was unable to defeat the four-handed attack with his two fists.Under the continuous attack of the Ming army, the defenders in the south of the city were quickly defeated and retreated.

When Hong Leng returned, he saw that Kebali had disappeared, and the Ming army had occupied the south of the city and was heading towards the Golden Summit and White Temple.

Since he could stay, he had already put his life and death aside. He immediately drew his sword and led the assembled soldiers and horses. While letting people set fire to the Golden Dome and White Temple, he was about to kill the oncoming Ming army.

But before he had taken a few steps, he received another report saying that Lin Danhan had not run away and that he was still being called over.

He couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and immediately asked the reason.

It turned out that Lin Dan Khan and others came out from the north gate, but the Ming army had long thought that Lin Dan Khan would escape, and immediately sent cavalry to guard the remaining three gates of Chahanhot, waiting for Lin Dan Khan to run away.

Seeing that there was no way to go to heaven and no way to go to the ground, Lin Danhan had no choice but to return to the city and contemplated surrender.He thought about asking Hong Leng to ask for surrender, saying that he was willing to agree to all conditions, even if he quit Chahar, it didn't matter.

Hong Leng was extremely shocked when he heard these remarks.He never expected that Lin Danhan had no lower limit and was still thinking about surrendering now.

But even if he wants to surrender now, the Ming army will agree.Really as stupid as a pig.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

"Heaven is going to destroy Mongolia, and these are actually the descendants of Genghis Khan."

As he spoke, he turned around, pulled the messenger's collar, and said sternly:

"Tell Lin Dan Khan that if he still has the integrity and still thinks that he is a descendant of Genghis Khan, he should fight to the death and not lose the face of the Golden Family. I, Hong Leng, will go first and wait for him below!"

After he finished speaking, he went straight towards the Ming army without looking back, and was soon overwhelmed by the Ming army that rushed forward.

Seeing that Hong Leng was dead and Lin Dan Khan was determined to surrender, the morale of the other Mongolian soldiers dropped sharply and they were defeated one after another.

As a result, Chahanhot, the last capital of Mongolia, was finally captured by the Ming army. (End of chapter)
