Chapter 162 Inspection of the enemy

Seeing Cui San's death heroically, the other soldiers who lost their combat power due to injury did not say a word. However, they firmly took the grenades, pulled the bracelets one by one, either hugged the enemy, jumped under the city wall, or came to the enemy's crowd in other ways, and took away at least three or five or more enemies after the grenade exploded.

For a moment, explosions sounded one after another, accompanied by screams from enemy soldiers, and in addition to tears on the faces of Ming soldiers.

The Ming soldiers who were not injured or were only slightly injured knew that this was the serious injury that these seriously injured men exchanged their safety to the greatest extent at the cost of their remaining lives and the guarantee of victory in this great war. These soldiers should have done nothing after being seriously injured. They just need to enjoy the pensions issued by the government for the rest of their lives and accompany their children and grandchildren to live their lives.

Ma Mingfeng's face was filled with tears. The reason why these soldiers did this was largely due to his suggestion. Although each of them was voluntary, if it were not for Ma Mingfeng's suggestion, they would not have known that such a method would be used. So to a certain extent, the deaths of these soldiers were inseparable from him.

"You use your life to exchange for our chance to survive, for the victory of this battle to defend the city, and even the future of the Ming Dynasty. I know your hopes deeply and your wishes. I can only do my best to protect this city. No matter how difficult the days ahead are, I will try my best to defend it, not to be loyal to the emperor, nor to be a loyal minister for all ages, but to be a warrior who has no regrets and has been ready to die!"

Ma Mingfeng said silently in his heart. He originally wanted to do his best to plan for Nanming, but now, although the plan for the layout of Nanming has not changed, he still fantasizes about being able to do his best to defend this strong city and make it an insurmountable strong fortress for the thieves' army.

Although he was not a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, he was willing to turn this place into Suiyang during the Anshi Rebellion, so that the enemy could not surpass half a step from now on!

Moreover, in Ma Mingfeng's view, all this is not impossible. Although the current thief army is strong, if they insist on attacking the city in this way, the final result will not be impossible to cause them to suffer heavy losses, and even counterattack to defend until they are completely eliminated.

What's more, Ma Mingfeng also knew that although Chongzhen was not capable enough, he was also a strong monarch and would do his best to send reinforcements here. As long as his team sticks to the end, he can definitely hold on until the bandits withdraw his troops.

Thinking of this, Ma Mingfeng felt sincere respect for the soldiers who dared to die generously. He respectfully worshiped the fallen soldiers at the top of the city, and said with a deep sad face: "Warriors who sacrificed their lives for the country, you are the loyal souls of my Ming Dynasty. You have used your flesh and blood to forge a new steel Great Wall for my Ming Dynasty. Your great spirit will last forever, and my Ming Dynasty will eventually stand. Brothers are not far away, let's see how the dead will kill the enemy after us?"

After saying that, Ma Mingfeng stood up, took a spear from the weapons left by the soldiers who were willing to die, stabbed him hatefully at the chest of an enemy soldier who was about to climb the city wall, then shouted loudly, lifted the enemy soldier high, and threw it under the city.

At this time, another enemy soldier jumped onto the top of the city, hugged Ma Mingfeng from behind, and dragged him to jump off the city wall, and died with him directly.

In an emergency, Ma Mingfeng kicked the female wall with his legs, directly crushed the enemy soldier to the ground, and then took the opportunity to attack the other party with his elbow, forcing the other party to let go of his hands holding him, then jumped up suddenly, pulled out the sword around his waist, and stabbed the other party to death with one sword.

It was not until this time that Ma Mingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he realize that his back was wet with sweat.

Then Ma Mingfeng waved the sword in his hand angrily, and cut melons and vegetables to kill the five or six soldiers who rushed up to him on the spot. His face was covered with blood, but he didn't care at all. He stood there coldly, looking quite heroic.

This made a female general wearing a red battle robe in the distance sigh: "I really didn't expect that this scholar would have a strong and heroic side, which is not worse than my Li Lang. Humph, this kid actually rejected my kindness at the beginning. Seeing that you are now surrounded again and again, do you regret your decision?"

Ma Mingfeng did not regret that Hongniu didn't know, but Hongniu saw Ma Mingfeng's determination to defend the city. Not only Ma Mingfeng, the soldiers in Kaifeng City all fought to the death, and even took suicide attacks. Especially the suicide attacks of their rushing into the crowd of trenchers with thunder, which brought great shadows to the crusade. As long as they saw this suicide attack, the crusade had no other way except to escape.

As a result, on this day alone, the rebel army lost more than 15,000 people. Although the Ming Dynasty's official army also lost more than 3,000 people, all of these more than 3,000 people died completely, it could not make up for the huge casualties of the soldiers under Li Zicheng's command.

"How long has it been? Our army actually lost nearly 30,000 people. I'm afraid there are not so many defenders in Kaifeng City?" Li Zicheng's face was extremely gloomy. He had no choice but to have the suicide attack created by the Ming Dynasty, especially the suicide attack created by Ma Mingfeng. However, he was unwilling to retreat in such a mess.

So Li Zicheng decided to go to the city to observe the situation in person so as to determine the main attack direction and the next strategy. He believed that as long as he was careful enough, he would be able to find the loopholes. As long as he found the loopholes, he would be able to win in one fell swoop and successfully break Kaifeng City is just around the corner.

However, when he heard that Li Zicheng was going to inspect in person, Luo Rucai solemnly persuaded him: "Old Qi, it's not just me to say to you, you can observe the enemy situation yourself, which is really dangerous. Don't you know Sun Ce during the Three Kingdoms period? Even when observing the enemy situation, he met Taishi Ci, which was also Liu Yao, who was relatively incompetent, otherwise he would never be able to go back."

Li Zicheng laughed and said, "If Sun Ce hadn't personally investigated, how could he recover a powerful general like Taishi Ci? What you said just now is a good omen. Maybe I can get a general."
