Shi Yide asked Ren Deren to die on the battlefield, which was the best result for a general, because he knew his ending before going to fight, and this was also the only ending he could choose.

Shortly after Shi Yide's death, Zhu Yicheng learned the news. After hearing this, Zhu Yicheng had not spoken for a long time. Finally, he just sighed softly and ordered him to restrain his and his corpses and find a place with good feng shui for burial.

Although Shi Yide was dead, Suzhou was still in the hands of the Qing army. However, the morale of the Qing army in the city had dropped to a very low level. Zhu Yicheng sent someone to write to the city, asking Suzhou City to open the city to surrender voluntarily. The Ming army would ensure the safety of the lives of the people in Suzhou City and the surrendered Qing army, and would also treat all the surrendered Qing generals and officials in the city with kindness.

The letter was sent to Zhang Boxing. After reading the letter, Zhang Boxing was furious and immediately tore the letter to pieces, swearing to the tyranny with the thief.

It is impossible to surrender, and it is impossible to surrender in this life. Zhang Boxing is a famous honest official and a loyal minister. He is a virtuous person who devotes his whole life to the great Qing Empire. Death is not terrible to him, and his reputation after death is the most important. If he can get the posthumous title of Wen Zhong after death, he can still smile.

After Shi Yide's death, Zhang Boxing directly took over all the Suzhou city defenses in the name of the governor, and acted as a swearing to strictly guard Suzhou. He not only inspected the city defenses himself, but also showed no mercy to those passive officers at all levels, and directly punished a group of people who beat the board and those who seized the post. Two hundred officers even were directly beaten by him on the spot because of his words to contradict Zhang Boxing.

After sending the letter of surrender, the stones sank to the sea. After waiting for a day, he saw that there was still no reply in Suzhou City. Zhu Yicheng was not polite and immediately ordered the entire army to start attacking the city.

The battle in Suzhou began to enter a fierce state. The Ming army, with its morale as rainbow, rushed towards Suzhou City like a scattered sea. Zhang Boxing also acted as a defensive position. Not only did he send trusted officials at all levels to serve as military supervisors to supervise the Qing army and the organized soldiers to defend, but he even personally picked up his sword and fought desperately with the Ming army.

For a moment, the sound of killing sounds shook the sky, cannons, muskets, feather arrows, flying stones... back and forth in the air, bloody corpses fell from the top of the city from time to time, including Ming army and Qing army...

"Kill! Kill the thief!" Zhang Boxing personally killed a seriously injured Ming army at the top of the city, panting and waving the sword in his hand as if he was crazy. When the Ming army's offensive finally retreated, he laughed even more at the Ming army Zhang Boxing who retreated like a tide. In his opinion, these thieves were just like this, and Suzhou could still be defended.

"Sir! Oh my god!" At this moment, an official rolled over and crawled over. When he saw Zhang Boxing from afar, he shouted loudly: "The east gate...the east gate has been opened..."

"What! How can the east gate open?" Hearing this, Zhang Boxing couldn't believe his ears, and his whole body shook, then he asked sternly.

"Yao Guerrilla is the city gate that Yao Guerrilla ordered to open. He surrendered to the thief!" the visitor cried.

"Where is Zhang Dianshi? Didn't he also supervise the war at the East Gate? Why didn't he stop it?"

"Yao Guerrilla took advantage of Zhang Dianshi's unpreparedness to cut him off, and then he led his men to open the east gate. Now the rebels have entered the city from the east gate!"

"So rebellious, greedy for life and fear of death, he actually surrendered to the thief..." Zhang Boxing was so angry that he trembled all over. But before he could finish his words, another person came to report that the Ximen was also opened, and the general soldier Qian Dachang opened it. However, compared to Yao Guerrilla, Qian Dachang at least did not kill the civil servants such as the Suzhou prefect who was with him. However, these people were controlled by Qian Dachang's troops, and then ordered his troops to open the Ximen.

Not only that, Qian Dachang also ordered all the troops in the city to give up resistance and surrender to the Ming army in the name of the general. When he heard the news that was like the top of the five thunder, how could Zhang Boxing stand still? His face turned ashen.

"Sir...what should we do now?" The other man hurriedly supported Zhang Boxing. Zhang Boxing took a deep breath, pushed away the others with force, and barely stood with the sword in his hand. At this time, there were a few other gates in the east gate and the west gate. From a distance, the Ming army outside the city had swarmed from these gates, and the military flag that was originally inserted at the top of the city was no longer visible. Instead, the Ming army sun and moon flag that had just been replaced was replaced.

"The city is broken...the city is broken..." The Qing army, which was already not very morale, did not have the desire to resist when they saw this situation? The Qing army in various units suddenly became a mess. Some immediately surrendered, some were like headless flies, and many Qing army even ran to the city desperately, taking off their military uniforms while running, trying to hide in the city to impersonate the people to save their lives...

Even where Zhang Boxing was located, the Qing army guarding the city was extremely frightened. Some of the Qing soldiers far away looked at each other and ran away at the same time. How could they care about defending the city? Seeing that the situation was over, Zhang Boxing's lips trembled, and he wanted to scold him, but something seemed to block his throat. He wanted to summon his subordinates to fight back and take back the city gate, but it was too late at this time. The sound of shaking shouts and killing came from all directions, and the Ming army attacking the city was getting closer and closer to him.

Not only that, the Ming army that had just retreated launched an attack on the city. This time, the defenders at the city had no courage at all. They collapsed and fled after contact at the first day of the first day. Seeing the fierce Ming army constantly climbing up to the city, waving the swords in their hands to chase the Qing army like cutting vegetables and melons, Zhang Boxing couldn't help but close his eyes.

"It's over... everything is over..." Endless sorrow surged in Zhang Boxing's heart. Suzhou was about to fall. Zhang Boxing must not be a prisoner of the rebels. He was a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty and a famous honest official in the world!

After throwing away the sword in his hand, Zhang Boxing climbed the city tower. Regardless of the fighting under the city tower, he first tidied up his clothes, then solemnly bowed and kowtowed to the north, stood up, walked silently to the window, looking into the distance, and didn't know what he was thinking at this moment. Then he suddenly jumped out. Under the gaze of countless people, Zhang Boxing jumped off the city tower like a broken winged swallow...
