Back punch with his left hand, uppercut with his right hand, kick with the left side, and volley with his leg raised high... Li Qing's movements were graceful, and every blow hit Yuan Ren's temple, throat, heart, and several vital points.

Under the influence of true energy, every blow exceeds the limit that the human body can bear, either shattering the brain, shattering the throat, or bursting the heart.

One blow kills one, and he kills the enemy so efficiently that even Zhu Di's slashing with a knife can't beat him.

In this case, Li Qing should allocate part of his energy to protect Zhu Laosi, otherwise it would be even more violent.

Li Qing doesn't use a knife not to show off, but because he is not used to using it. Only by using his body and limbs can he exert his greatest strength.

"Pfft~"

Zhu Di cut off Yuan Ren's head with all his strength, and blood spurted out all over his body. He wiped his face, and took a chance to look back. He had only killed seven or eight, and Li Qing had almost killed twenty. He couldn't help but feel competitive.

rise.

"Come again!"

"Not coming." Li Qing grabbed Zhu Di and said, "Your Highness, our reinforcements have arrived. The top priority is to coordinate the overall situation."

Zhu Di glanced at it and asked curiously: "Where is it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a small team was seen climbing up the city wall and fighting with the Yuan people. After a while, more and more Ming troops climbed up the city wall.

"Finally here." Zhu Di grinned and relaxed.

Half a quarter of an hour later, a burly man covered in blood came over, saw Zhu Di's appearance clearly, and immediately knelt down on one knee, "General Qiu Fu is late, please forgive me, Your Highness."

Zhu Di was not in the mood to be polite and said directly, "How long will it take for the two guards to arrive?"

"We have all arrived and started to climb the city." Qiu Fu said respectfully, "General Zhu Neng is executing His Highness's deployment."

"Okay!" Zhu Di nodded, "Follow me to guard the main gate, and send your own soldiers to notify Zhu Neng and ask him to hurry up."

"The general will obey his orders."

…

"Soldiers, hold on, our reinforcements will be here soon, they will be there soon..." The chief envoy was afraid of his life and did not dare to get up. He sat down close to the city wall and continued to yell, "We have defended the city, and everyone will have a big bowl of meat."

Stuffed dumplings!”

The government servants around him followed him and yelled, not daring to stop for a moment.

"The reinforcements have arrived." Li Qing stepped forward and said with a smile, "My lord, the chief minister has worked hard."

"No hard work, no...Li Qinchen?" The chief envoy was overjoyed, and then asked, "Where is Your Highness?"

Zhu Di said angrily, "Are you using this to vent your anger?"

"Your Highness?" The chief envoy was overjoyed. When he saw Zhu Di covered in blood, he was frightened. He didn't care about etiquette anymore, so he rushed up and touched him randomly.

"Presumptuous!" Zhu Di kicked him aside and shouted angrily, "Are you tired of living?"

The chief envoy was not angry either, with a relaxed smile on his face. The two bosses were fine, reinforcements had arrived, and he finally felt at peace.

As soon as the tight string loosened, the person fainted.

Zhu Di was stunned and said nonchalantly: "I didn't try hard enough!"

Li Qing hurriedly stepped forward, felt his pulse and chuckled, "He's fine, he's just too tired."

After that, he asked several government officials to carry the chief envoy down the city wall.

…

As more and more Ming troops descended on the city, the situation gradually stabilized. Zhu Di observed the situation, his brain working rapidly. After a while, his face gradually relaxed and he smiled:

"They will withdraw their troops by noon tomorrow at the latest."

Li Qing rolled his eyes. He was facing a powerful enemy and it was hard for him to attack Zhu Di, so he said, "Your Highness, the eight thousand cavalry that were sent out before should have arrived by now. Why is there no movement at all?"

"Don't worry, Zhang Yu is better at fighting than you." Zhu Di was very patient, "The battle has been fought so far, and there is no suspense anymore. Under my careful arrangements, there won't be any accidents. You can just sit back and watch the show.

"

Please stop saying a few words... Li Qingxin said: "g will not end well."

The Yuan people were very powerful in battle, but they could not plunder anything, so their wives, children, and children were at risk of starving to death.

Under such pressure, despite the long-distance attack, their combat effectiveness was no weaker than that of the Ming army, which was just waiting for work. In fact, its bloodthirsty force was even better than that of the Ming army.

On the city wall, both sides fought bloody battles, with both sides suffering serious casualties.

But the Ming army has one advantage, and that is: if you want to fight me hand-to-hand, you must first go to the city.

Most of the people from the Yuan Dynasty fell into disgrace during the process of ascending to the city!

Zhu Di's deployment began to take effect. The situation on the city was gradually controlled by the Ming army, and a large number of defensive equipment was transported to the city.

Under the resistance of horizontal stones, rolling logs, kerosene, arrows, cannonballs... the cost of the Yuan people who climbed the city increased sharply.

Screams, curses, roars, and calls to kill...were heard endlessly, and the blood stained the walls of the city red.

Despite this, the Yuan people still maintained a fierce offensive and risked their lives. After paying a heavy price, they finally achieved good results.

The city gate was forcibly broken by a hammer. Although there was a wall made of big stones behind it, it invisibly put a lot of psychological pressure on the Ming army.

Zhu Di frowned, and Li Qing looked unhappy, cursing in his mind: g?

When the people of the Yuan Dynasty saw that there was something going on, they simply stopped going to the city and focused all their efforts on the city gate.

The archers gave up everything and only shot at a small area above the city gate. The arrows were so dense that they couldn't even keep their heads above water.

At this time, Li Qing was panicked and said anxiously: "Your Highness, how long can the stone wall last?"

"At most half an hour." Zhu Di said, "After all, it's just a temporary thing, and it's not integrated with the city wall. It looks deceptive, but it's not actually strong.

But don’t panic, although Yuan Ren’s method of attack is very effective, they will also suffer a lot of damage.”

Zhu Di said with a sinister smile, "Qiu Fu, transport the defense equipment here to both sides, and let the people go over and beat me with all your might from both sides. Damn it, since you can't take the lead, let's not defend at all. If they attack, we will attack too."

"

After a pause, "In addition, I sent an order from the king to Zhu Neng, asking him to mobilize 8,000 people as soon as possible and form a phalanx to block the city gate. If the king has blocked it, he must be quick."

"The general will obey his orders."

Qiu Fu clasped his fists heavily and began to execute.

…

Zhu Di said to Li Qing, "We have been fighting for a long time. Now that the dawn is in front of us, the Yuan people will go crazy and the losses will be even greater..."

Hearing that the square formation was blocking the door, Li Qing felt a little relieved, g, and quickly interrupted: "Why is Your Highness so sure? Yuan Ren is not stupid."

Zhu Di smiled and said, "There is a saying in the art of war: attack the city from the bottom, and attack the heart from the top.

It's not easy for the Yuan people to come all the way, but now they can't attack for a long time, and their morale has been greatly damaged. At this time, people tend to selectively believe in a situation that is beneficial to them."

Uh... It seems to make sense... Li Qing nodded, "It's normal for soldiers to have this mentality, but the leader of the Yuan people should be relatively calm."

Zhu Di shook his head and said, "You don't understand this. On the battlefield, many times it is not the soldiers obeying the generals, but the generals accommodating the soldiers.

At present, it is clear that they have the upper hand, their morale is high, and they have a strong desire to attack. If they rashly change their fighting style, their morale will be greatly damaged, and the gain will not be worth the loss."

As he said that, he picked up his shield to block it, glanced down at the city, and then sat down close to the city wall. "The situation is as I expected. Now the Yuan people have suffered even greater losses."

Li Qing also took the time to take a look below. It was indeed as Zhu Di said. The Yuan people put all their efforts on the city gate and were a little crazy. The Ming troops on the left and right kept throwing objects at high altitudes, with great results.

Thinking that there was still a phalanx inside the city gate, Li Qing was completely relieved and couldn't help but praise: "Your Highness is a great talent."

"That's right." Zhu Di said proudly, "When I was a boy, I went on an expedition with my father-in-law, Li Laobiao and other generals. I was not the second or third son...

Ahem, otherwise, why would my father let me control a military powerhouse like Beiping?"

Li Qing nodded, Zhu Di was indeed a rare handsome talent.

However, in the early Ming Dynasty, there were too many handsome talents, as if they were free of charge, such as Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde... Compared with their brilliance, Zhu Di at this stage is indeed not too outstanding.

You know, even Lan Yu only truly entered the ranks of first-class military commanders after winning all the battles in the fishery.

There is no way, it's not that they are not good enough, but that there are too many talented people in the Hongwu Dynasty!

…

The Yuan people suffered huge casualties, but also achieved great results, such as destroying the city.

But just when they were cheering to enter the city to plunder, they found that instead of panicked people, the city was filled with densely packed Ming troops. The phalanx of tens of thousands of people stood there, giving people a feeling of despair.

There was a leak in the house and it rained continuously all night. When the Yuan people were filled with grief and anger, an iron cavalry came out from the diagonal stab to kill the general, sweeping forward with an unparalleled momentum, like a sharp knife stabbing him.

The eight thousand cavalry were all the best among the best, and they were well fed and rested. Although their number was not as large as that of the Yuan people, they were still difficult for the Yuan people to resist.

First, it was sudden, and second, the cavalry had already charged.

Suffering a sudden violent attack, the Yuan people were unable to arrange their troops.

In an instant, the Yuan army was in chaos and had no formation at all.

Zhu Di's face flushed with excitement and his mouth opened, but in the end he did not give the order to go out of the city to fight. Once he went out to fight, the advantage of defending the city would be gone, and even a good situation would be ruined.

The eight thousand cavalrymen were like sharp knives, directly disemboweling Yuan Ren, killing everyone in Yuan Dynasty.

After a charge, the cavalry did not counter-charge, but simply walked away.
