Zhao led his soldiers, jumped directly over the city wall, and rushed towards the rear Jin soldiers.
However, the Hou Jin soldiers changed their tactics to level shooting.
When the Ming army had only rushed forward more than 40 steps, hundreds of soldiers had already fallen.
The soldiers behind were timid and began to flee backwards.
Zhao led the army to the front of the Hou Jin soldiers' formation. , stabbed an armored soldier to death with one shot.
At this time, the servant beside him shouted: "General, the ones behind have retreated, retreat quickly."
Zhao Shujiao looked back and saw that there were only a few servants around him, and the other Ming soldiers were running backwards.
He let out a long sigh and shouted: "Quickly retreat, be careful behind you."
He also ran back with his servants.
By the time he ran to the city wall, seven or eight of his servants were dead.
He had no time to be sad and said to Yuan Chonghuan: "Master Yuan, I'm afraid this won't work.
Please ask your subordinates to lead people to attack the troops behind.
There are mostly Han troops there.
We can open a way for the young people to escape first, and then we will It’s easier to drag Jiannu here.”
Yuan Chonghuan was already regretting not listening to Zhao Lian's instructions and letting Qing Zhuang leave first.
Now Qing Zhuang has seriously affected the morale of the Ming army.
But of course he would not admit it, and now Zhao Shujiao's proposal made him tempted.
He said: "General Zhao, stay here while I personally lead people to attack the enemy behind."
After that, without waiting for Zhao Zhijiao to answer, Li Chengxian and Lu Zhijia rushed towards the Hou Jin army behind with five thousand soldiers.
He followed behind with Qingzhuang.
Li Chengxian's injury was almost healed.
He took the lead and braved the rain of arrows to kill the enemy.
Zhao Shujiao had no choice but to turn around and guard against the Houjin armored soldiers in front.
He ordered the soldiers to squat down and use shields in front to block the arrows, while those in the rear used bows and arrows to fight back.
The pikemen squatted behind the archers, preparing to deal with the armored soldiers rushing towards the city.
There were not many Hou Jin soldiers behind.
Li Chengxian took the lead and lifted an armor soldier in front into the sky and threw him far away among the Hou Jin soldiers.
Their morale was boosted and everyone rushed towards the Hou Jin soldiers.
Yuan Chonghuan was overjoyed and shouted: "Come on, there will be a heavy reward for catching the leader of Jiannu."
The Hou Jin soldiers did not panic.
The soldiers in the front withstood the attack of the Ming army.
The armor soldiers in the back shot arrows into the air and quickly suppressed the charge of the Ming army.
Although there were many soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, they gradually became irresistible.
Slowly, the Ming army began to retreat, and no matter how much Yuan Chonghuan shouted, it had no effect.
Seeing this situation, Yang San and Liu Boze immediately began to gather Qingzhuang, but at this time Qingzhuang was frightened by Jiannu's troops and began to flee in all directions, not listening to their greetings.
Bi Mazi and Bi San took the opportunity to lead them.
They shouted with their henchmen: "We can't fight, the Ming army is going to be defeated, run away."
So the young men became even more chaotic, and even disrupted the Ming army's formation.
Li Chengxian and Lu Zhijia had no choice.
They were fighting in front, but there was chaos behind them.
They couldn't beat them no matter what.
So we had to retreat slowly.
Yuan Chonghuan had already returned to the city wall.
When the Ming army all retreated, there were only more than 3,000 of the 5,000 people who went out.
Not many died, and most of them ran away.

Among the young men, except for the more than 500 people led by Yang San and Liu Boze, everyone else had fled far away.
So there were only about 6,000 people left in the city, but this was a good thing.
With fewer people, everyone basically had armor and some shield soldiers.
This weakened the effectiveness of the bows and arrows of the Hou Jin soldiers, while the Ming army The bows and arrows fired back and wounded some Hou Jinjia soldiers, and the two sides are now in a stalemate.
Later, the Jin soldiers came from afar and did not bring much food.
Going out to collect food would obviously cause the Ming army to attack and break through.
And if the Ming army does not need to supply the young and strong, the food will be enough for four days.
Now it depends on whose reinforcements will come first.
The low city wall now played a certain role and could barely block the charge of the Hou Jin soldiers.
The two sides continue to have some small-scale conflicts, but they are only adequate.
Under the current circumstances, neither side is capable of launching a large-scale attack.
The next night, reinforcements from the Hou Jin Army arrived.
Although they were all Han troops, the reinforcements of more than 2,000 people broke the balance of power between the two sides.
Of course, Yue Tuo would not attack at night and ordered the reinforcements to be stationed. camp, and defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop tomorrow morning.
The Ming army saw the reinforcements coming from the other side, and their morale became very low.
Yuan Chonghuan regretted deeply.
If he had not been too greedy, he would have returned to Shanhaiguan long ago.
Now it seems that he can only die for his country, but he is unwilling to do so.
He is a person who wants to achieve immortal achievements, how can he die like this?
What a small place He summoned the three generals Zhao Lijiao, Yang San and Liu Boze to discuss countermeasures.
Zhao Lijiao said: "For the current plan, we can only fight hard.
If the general is brave, there will be no more slaves than us.
As long as everyone Working together, there is still hope to defeat Jiannu."
Li Chengxian and others felt that as long as the soldiers worked together, it would be possible to hold on and wait for reinforcements.
Yuan Chonghuan retorted: "Wait for reinforcements.
Where can we get the reinforcements?
The slaves will attack tomorrow.
The city wall is low.
How can we defend Yang Daxia?
I heard that you have great martial arts skills.
Can you return me to Shanhaiguan safely?"
Zhao Shujiao hurriedly advised: "Master Yuan, if you leave first, our army will collapse immediately.
I have already asked my servants to go to Shanhaiguan to move reinforcements.
Reinforcements should arrive soon."
Yuan Chonghuan scolded: "I, Ning Qian, are preparing for the army.
How can I die here?
You are waiting here to wait for help.
I will go ahead tonight and wait for you at Shanhaiguan.
How can the soldiers mutiny?"
After that, Looking at Yang San expectantly.
Yang San knew that he was the actual leader of this army, but he didn't want to escort him to escape first, so he hesitated and said: "Master Yuan, the common people's martial arts are ordinary, I'm afraid they can't keep you safe in the chaos of the army, please Sir, think twice.”
Yuan Chonghuan refused to give up and said: "We set out at night.
There are few people and we will not alert Jiannu.
Isn't this okay?"
"Your Excellency, Jiannu has deployed heavy troops on both the east and west sides.

Now that their reinforcements have arrived, they will definitely strengthen the prevention and inspection in the west to prevent us from breaking through.
Martial arts are worthless in front of the army, and the common people cannot guarantee your safety. " Yuan Chonghuan looked at Zhao Lingjiao again and said: "If General Zhao leads people to attack the Jiannu in the east, the Jiannu in the west will be in chaos.
Then I and Yang Daxia will take the opportunity to break out, how about?"
Zhao Shujiao despised him in his heart and said: "Master Yuan, many soldiers have night blindness.
Attacking at night is tantamount to suicide.
Jian Nu does not have to fight at all, he only needs to shoot arrows.
There will be no chaos.
And Our army will suffer heavy casualties, so we will disperse without fighting tomorrow."
Yuan Chonghuan finally gave up and sighed, ready to resign himself to his fate.
The generals also went back to let the soldiers rest and prepare for a fierce battle tomorrow
