Chapter 891
At the head of Jinzhou city, the Qing army on the city looked seriously at the Wei army cavalry galloping into the camp in the distance, and there was no sound on the city.

Before the Wei army left the camp and stopped attacking the city, they could all guess that the reinforcements came from the pass. Now that the Wei army has returned to the camp, it means that the Wei army has solved the reinforcements from the south.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Qing army couldn't help being a little flustered. The city they defended had two beliefs.

Wei Jun was reclaiming land outside the city, posing as if he would not leave and spend a long time, which shook the defenders' belief in the hope that Wei Jun's food would run out, and now their belief in standing still and waiting for help was also shaken.

"Lord Hong, look!" General Qing on the city wall suddenly exclaimed.

Hong Chengchou and others hurriedly looked out, and saw the Wei army behind, escorting a long line of Qing army prisoners to the city.

Wei Jun, who had just entered the camp, also rushed out nearly a hundred cavalry, and the leading cavalry carried a human head with a horse lance, flaunting their power under the city, shouting loudly: "He Luohui's head is here, please Hong Chengchou take a look!"

"He Luohui's head is here!" Nearly a hundred cavalry galloped back and forth under the city, screaming loudly, but the defenders at the top of the city were silent.

At this time, nearly a thousand prisoners were taken to the base of the city. Under the call of the generals of the Wei army, the prisoners of the Qing army who were tied up in a string also began to shout, "The army of aid to Jin is gone. The great Wei treats the prisoners preferentially. Brothers in the city surrender."

The generals in Jinzhou City were silent. Now it seems that the reinforcements will be exhausted, and the isolated city will eventually be unable to avoid the fate of breaking the city.It seems that Jinzhou City cannot be defended for long.Many soldiers of the Qing army at the top of the city couldn't help regretting it. If they had known this before, why not...

Hong Chengchou heard the shouts from the city, saw the lifted head, his legs went limp, and he was supported by Bai Guangen, "Lord Hong, this is the end of the matter~"

Bai Guangen was originally a famous general, and was supported by Hong Chengchou after he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. He was Hong Chengchou's confidant. Needless to say, Hong Chengchou also knew what he wanted to say.

Hong Chengchou squinted at Bai Guangen, Bai Guangen lowered his head, and Hong Chengchou glanced at the city general Zuo again, keeping their expressions in mind, then pushed away Bai Guangen's hand that was supporting him, and said in a deep voice: "I know it!"

After finishing speaking, Hong Chengchou walked down the city wall surrounded by the Eight Banners, and returned to the government office.

At noon, in the barracks of the Qing army, Li Chengdong, Li Yuanyin and his son gathered together, and there were confidant soldiers guarding the door.

At this time, the two were eating, and Li Chengdong said: "You were not allowed to do it before, and now the time has come."

Li Chengdong was not sure whether Jinzhou would be able to hold on before, but now he is 100% sure that Jinzhou has no morale and will definitely not be able to hold on.

If his guess is correct, the Wei army will take advantage of the wavering morale of the defenders to launch an attack in the next few days. If the city is broken, it will be too late.

Li Yuanyin asked excitedly, "How is Father Marshal going to do it?"

This problem really stumped Li Chengdong. There are two Niulu soldiers with 600 soldiers in the city, and the Han Army Banner has 500 soldiers, but he has only more than 1000 people under his command. In a real fight, he may not be Hong Chengchou's opponent.

Now the Manchu and Han flags are worthless and are everywhere, but the flag soldiers are flag soldiers after all, and there is always a thought in their hearts that the Qing Dynasty has won and that they can be the master, and their loyalty is still relatively high.

Originally, Li Chengdong was also going to be incorporated into the Han Banner, but during the Battle of Hedong, he slipped away first. In addition, Li Benshen, who was born in Xuzhou Town, voted for Wei in Taiyuan, which made Dole dissatisfied. The poor soldiers and horses were incorporated into the Han flag, and he did not have his share.

Could it be Li Chengdong, it was easy to kill Hong Chengchou, he hacked him to death, but after he was killed, he was killed by the Eight Banners in the city, it was not worth it.

Li Chengdong would not do such a thing, but when he was thinking, the soldiers outside the gate suddenly said: "Mr. Hong, Junmen, sent someone to invite Junmen to come over."

Li Chengdong was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty, but he got up and responded, "Got it!"

Inside the Jinzhou Government Office, Hong Chengchou and the Manchurian Bahana were discussing matters, when Banner Ding outside the door suddenly said: "Lord Hong, General Li has arrived."

Hearing the words, Hong Chengchou hurriedly stood up, "Let him in!"

Li Chengdong walked into the lobby, and when he saw Hong Chengchou and Bahana, he quickly saluted, "Please refer to your lord for humble posts, Gushan!"

Hong Chengchou came forward, grabbed his hand, and said with emotion: "Just now in the city, I saw that all the soldiers were shaken, but only Li Jun showed indignation, and I was very relieved!"

Li Chengdong was slightly taken aback. In the morning on the city, Bai Guangen intended to persuade Hong Chengchou to surrender, but if Hong Chengchou surrendered, he would have no merit at all, so he showed anger. He didn't want Hong Chengchou to misunderstand.

"Lord Hong, I thought that the city of Jinzhou would be strong enough to hold on!" Li Chengdong immediately stood up straight, puffed out his chest, and said with a straight face.

Hong Chengchou and Bahana looked at each other, and then said: "I really did not misunderstand you." He sighed, "However, Jinzhou is really difficult to hold on to."

When Li Chengdong heard this, his heart was shocked, and he was a little anxious. Master Hong can't surrender, he exclaimed: "Could it be~"

"I have discussed with Gu Shan Ezhen for a day. Now the morale in the city has been blown out, many generals have been shaken, and the Wei thieves will definitely take this opportunity to attack the city. At that time, the city will really be difficult to defend." Hong Chengchou waved his hand, "So I and Gu Shan Ezhen decided to break through the siege, but the Wei thieves outside the city were very heavily defended, so I wanted to give General Li a task. I asked General Li to send someone to see the leader of the Wei thieves, and said that I was willing to surrender and lower the Wei thieves. Vigilance, we broke out of the city in the middle of the night."

Li Chengdong was startled, he didn't expect Hong Chengchou to act so decisively, he was going to break through tonight, but fortunately, it's not too late to know now.

After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, he looked at Li Chengdong and said, "General Li, is he willing to take on this task?"

Li Chengdong was overjoyed and hesitant on his face. Seeing that Hong Chengchou and Bahana were looking at him, he pondered for a moment before saluting: "I am willing to serve my lord! I will leave the city as soon as I am humble!"

After finishing speaking, he wanted to salute and leave, but Hong Chengchou stopped him, "For the matter of leaving the city, let General Li's adopted son Li Yuanyin go in the evening. General Li reorganizes his troops and prepares to be the vanguard! This matter needs to be kept secret, so don't tell Yuanyin Yin the truth."

Hong Chengchou judged that the Wei army might attack the city tomorrow, but most of the city would not be able to defend it in the state of the defenders, so he must leave tonight.

Go out of the city in the evening and ask for surrender. It is difficult for Wei Jun to ask to enter the city today, and he will not be able to take over the city defense until tomorrow at the earliest. In this way, he will have one night.

When the Wei army defeated the Qing army who rescued Jinzhou, it must be arrogant. However, Jinzhou city was cut off from foreign aid, the army's morale was shaken, and the city would be destroyed.

In the evening, the Wei army got the news of the surrender in the city. Naturally, the defense of each army was not as good as before, and they had a chance to break out of the encirclement.

Li Chengdong glanced at Hong Chengchou, not daring to say anything more, "Your humble job is your job!"

~~~~~~
Outside the city, in the camp of the Wei army, Li Dingguo and Hu Dawei are discussing the matter of attacking the city tomorrow.

Hu Dawei laughed and said: "Today, I used He Luohui's head to walk around the city, and there was no sound in Jinzhou City. I think tomorrow will be able to attack the city with one blow."

Just as he was talking, Wang Yongqiang stepped into the commander's tent and reported to Li Dingguo: "The governor, just now one person was released from the city, saying he wanted to surrender!"
