The eighteenth offensive became obviously decadent, and he had no choice but to retreat.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties after attending the service. This is war, at the cost of death. Behind each living life are innocent families.

Whose family, whose father is who is the husband? Why do you need war? Is the purpose of war just to seize what originally belonged to others?

No one knows the answer, the answer lies with Huang Taiji. It is his ambitious man who has created many bones.

This kind of person does not feel guilty at all, and will even become an idol pursued by many fanatics. In the hearts of the Qing people, Huang Taiji was not just as simple as the emperor, but highly respected.

If you can't capture it for a long time, the soldiers will suffer heavy casualties. If you continue to attack, it will be a loss-making business. The subordinates are interested in retreating. If it really doesn't work, let's go back.

Although they did not gain much from this long journey, they had captured several cities at least. Moreover, they captured a large number of people.

Huang Taiji's purpose was to make these Han people the vanguards.

This is an extremely cruel tactic. The Mongols used this method to conquer cities and territories and were invincible. Now, Huang Taiji has learned through history books that he wants to use this tactic to capture Lanzhou City.

In fact, the Liao Kingdom in the Northern Song Dynasty used this method. When the family members of the grass and valley were all dressed in armor and carried soldiers, they would first cut down the gardens and then drive away the old and young, fill the trenches with big trees. When siege the city, they would first climb, and then climb down the old and young.

"The Return of the Condor Heroes" also describes the Mongolians siege the city and drive away the people of the Song Dynasty first. As long as the guards of the Song Dynasty are weak, the Mongolian soldiers will follow immediately.

Now, Huang Taiji used this method. Since he attacked Lanzhou City and encountered crazy resistance, don’t blame me for being ruthless.

From the time of the Jisi Rebellion, Huangtai-Ki began to plunder the people of the Ming Dynasty, taking away the people of the Ming Dynasty, regardless of age, and bringing them back to the Qing Dynasty and becoming slaves of the Eight Banners.

This time, he came to Shaanxi and went south all the way south to capture a large number of refugees. So, early the next morning, countless refugees were brought by Huang Taiji's army.

The Qing soldiers drove away with bows and arrows behind them. Anyone who dared to escape would shoot and kill them on the spot. Or they would simply trample on horseback to death.

The people cried loudly, and were driven out of Lanzhou City like driving cattle and sheep. This made the Ming soldiers on the city shocked each other.

These people are all the people of the Ming Dynasty and their own compatriots. They were driven to the city by the Qing soldiers. The Qing soldiers hid behind and watched the changes.

As long as the Ming army in the city dares to open the city gate and let the people enter the city, the Qing soldiers will launch a fierce attack and strive to capture the city gate in one fell swoop.

Once the city gate was broken, the Ming army would have no capital to compete with the Qing soldiers. You should know that if the Ming army had not relied on the city, it would have been no match for the Qing soldiers at all.

As long as the Qing soldiers break through the city gate, they will be able to conquer Lanzhou City in less than half a day. At that time, the Huanglong Banner of the Qing Dynasty floating on the walls of Lanzhou City will be their Qing Dynasty.

Huang Taiji's move was vicious. He used the Ming Dynasty people as the vanguard and let his subordinates hide behind the people. If the Ming army on the city wall dared to fight back, they would definitely shoot their compatriots.

If the Ming army was weak and gave up resistance, then Lanzhou City was within reach.

This kind of insulting tactic is really a big deal.

However, soldiers never get tired of deceit. In military affairs, no matter how despicable or shameless the tactics are, they are understandable, because the ultimate pursuit of victory in the war. Only by defeating one side can you have absolute voice.

"Mr. Song, something is wrong. The Tartars drove away a large number of people. What should we do? Many soldiers have given up their resistance." Yuan Xiaoxiao and others from the Eastern Palace Guard found Song Xiance to report.

After one day of resistance yesterday, the Ming army in Lanzhou City was exhausted. As the main general, Song Xiance did not sleep all night. He had to patrol the city walls around to appease the soldiers.

When the sky was light, Song Xiance dared to lean on the battlement of the city wall to take a nap.

Not long after he closed his eyes, Yuan Xiaoxiao came over to report with a panic expression.

Song Xiance's eyes suddenly opened, and then he turned over and stood up. At this time, Song Xiance was like a wind leaf on a water wheel, spinning tirelessly for a moment.

He omitted the whole process of ordinary people waking up from opening their eyes to distracting and then coming back to their senses after they woke up. Instead, when Yuan Xiaoxiao called him, he suddenly opened his eyes, giving you the illusion that he had never fallen asleep.

Song Xiance woke up and kicked the sleepy soldiers beside him: "Jiannu has been hit by him, get up and resist! Pick up your guys, take out your strength, and kill me! Kill!"

From beginning to end, Song Xiance was like a monkey jumping wildly, without a moment of peace. From him, you seemed to not see any of his decadence. He was always so refreshed and full of vitality.

Yan Yishuang, who was standing beside him, was also awakened by Song Xiance's shouts, and Shi Xiaofan was still wearing the coat Yan Yishuang covered him. He suddenly realized that he continued to inspire the morale of his subordinates.

Yan Yishuang and Yuan Xiaoxiao looked at each other. They had never seen such a person before. Song Xiance was like a fierce flat-headed brother. He was not tall, but he was full of energy.

So much so that Yuan Xiaoxiao couldn't help but exclaim: "Is Lord Song a monster? He doesn't know what fatigue means."

Yan Yishuang was shocked, and then she remembered that Song Xiance had never slept since retreating to Baiyin City. In the past half month, he and his soldiers retreated all the way to Lanzhou City.

When he arrived here, he was full of decadence and scatteredness. So he had a heavy burden on him, and he was like a falling off, turning forever.

In Yan Yishuang's memory, Song Xiance has not been asleep for more than half a month. Occasionally, at most, he will suddenly wake up and continue his endless work.

At this time, Song Xiance had become the hope of Lanzhou City. Whether it was the people or the soldiers, as long as they saw their General Song and Song Xiance's scream that was torn to pieces, everyone would feel inexplicably at ease.

Everyone thinks that Song Xiance must have a solution, because he is always so energetic and so tireless.

Only Yan Yishuang knew that she saw with her own eyes that Song Xiance was helpless and confused. She saw with her own eyes that in the corner where no one was, Song Xiance cried like a child, with her face broken.

It was too difficult for him. All the pressure was on him alone, and the situation in the entire Lanzhou City and even the entire Shaanxi was carried by Song Xiance alone.

Shi Xiaofan did not dare to show any of his decadence in front of others. He could only pretend to show his sunny side to everyone. Although his whole body had long been broken.

Yan Yishuang believed that if the soldiers saw Song Xiance's broken expression, Lanzhou City would never be able to defend for another round.
