Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 260 Seven Sneak Attack

On the tower of the south gate, a grandson of Sun Chengzong was beating his grandfather's legs. The old man could barely sit with his eyes open, but he looked at the children and grandchildren around him, as well as the children of several gentry families in Gaoyang City. speechless.

Just now when he inspected the city defenses, Old Sun already understood in his heart that if the Eastern captives came to attack, Gaoyang City would be very difficult to defend.

He served as a supervisor in Liaodong back then, and he was very clear about the fighting power of the Jurchens.

There are less than a thousand guarding soldiers in front of me. They are said to be strong men, but there are half a pile of big boys who are in their 60s and 100s and snot in their teens. They are wooden sticks with sharpened heads, and there are less than [-] people with weapons, and they are all inferior products... If such an army can stop the Eastern captives, the captives will definitely not be able to enter the pass. [

Although he knew it in his heart, Sun Chengzong didn't intend to shrink back.

Once the captive soldiers come, he will personally beat the drums at the top of the city, encouraging everyone with loyalty and bravery, and the men defending the city are defending their family members in the city, and they will definitely do their best, unlike the officers and soldiers of Liaodong. Seeing the captives, they would panic and flee, without the courage and determination to fight back bravely.

There are also the children of the Sun family and a group of talented students, plus a few gentry families. These children have all practiced martial arts. The disciples of the Sun family can all draw bows and shoot arrows, and have already ruined their families and the country, so there is nothing to worry about in terms of morale.

Now that he is determined to serve the country with death and awaken the morale of the army and the people with his death, Sun Chengzong no longer considers whether he can hold it. In his mind, he only considers how long he can hold it.

Now it seems that the morale is still good, there are not many people in the city, but Gaoyang City is not big, so there are a few people on each crenel, and there are a lot of hot oil, wood, and stones.

There are more than 1000 strong people in the city, and they don't even have wooden sticks, but as a reserve team, the city head is short of manpower. They can go to the city to help defend, and they can be used as auxiliary soldiers to carry stones and wood.

Almost all the houses in the lower half of the city were demolished, and all the large stones and wood were piled up near the gates of the city. The residents of the demolished houses did not complain. Go inside the building.

Sun Chengzong is quite satisfied with such a situation. Previously, he had planned to guard Suiyang for as long as possible. Now it seems that this small city should be able to guard for a long time, even if it is not as good as Zhang Xun guarding Suiyang. , but to be able to spread one's loyalty and the unyielding confidence of the people, even though the whole city died, it was worth it.

Even so, at this time, the cold wind howls outside the city tower, and the coldness is pressing. Usually at this time, Sun Chengzong will take the young children of the family to study in the big study with a brazier. In the damp and broken city building with the windows all around being ventilated, his children and grandchildren felt very sad, but they had nothing to say, nothing to comfort them...so they could only look at each other in silence.

Resting in this way until dusk, seeing the waning sun turning red and slowly falling, the city gradually became noisy with people, and everyone felt that Gaoyang City had survived another day, and there was hope that the Tartars might not come to attack this small city. So some people started talking and laughing loudly, some people were praying and thanking God, and some people started urging the gang leaders to cook the meals quickly.
