    "Our parents, wives and children are all in the city. Once the bandit army breaks through the city, they will be hard to escape!"

    "Follow me to the death!"

    The gate of Yunxi Mansion was smashed into a hole by a trebuchet. Seeing a large number of elite Qinghe Army infantry rushing forward, Admiral Zhang Wenhua took a deep breath, grabbed the sword of the guard beside him, and shouted with his real arm.

    Admiral Zhang Wenhua was well-known in Yunxi Mansion, although the garrison soldiers at the top of the city suffered heavy losses, they were panicked.

    However, seeing Admiral Zhang Wenhua not only did not run away, but raised his arms and shouted to fight to the death, they were also infected and roared one after another.

    "You take people to block the city gate!"

    Zhang Wenhua called the garrison general and ordered him to take people to block the city gate that had been blasted out.

    "Brothers, come with me!"

    The general of the garrison battalion also had the will to die, and led hundreds of garrison soldiers down the dungeon ladder.

    "Kill!"

    Yunxi Mansion is just a prefectural city, without a moat. When the garrison battalion led people down to the city gate, the infantry of the Qinghe Army had already rushed in front of them.

    Without any nonsense, the two sides roared directly, and rushed towards each other with swords in hand.

    Several brave infantrymen of the Qinghe Army wanted to win the first victory in entering the city. They rushed to the front, drilled through the trebuchet and blasted out of the hole, and entered the city gate corridor.

    "prick!"

    The infantrymen of the Qinghe army were greeted by the densely packed spears of the garrison soldiers, and they stabbed at the infantrymen of the Qinghe army in unison.

    These infantrymen of the Qinghe Army swung their sabers vigorously, trying to swing away the spears that were stabbing them.

    However, in the narrow and dark corridor of the city gate, facing countless spears, they swung a few of them, and more pierced into their bodies.

    The few soldiers of the Qinghe army who rushed into the tunnel first were stabbed with countless blood holes all over their bodies, spitting blood from their mouths, and fell to the ground unwillingly.

    "Kill!"

    The infantry of the Qinghe Army who followed closely protected their bodies with shields, and slammed into the cold spears, knocking over several guarding soldiers immediately.

    "Puff!"

    "Puff!"

    Amid the splashing blood, the soldiers of the Qinghe Army raised their knives and fell, beheading several guarding soldiers.

    But the next moment, they were stabbed into blood gourds, and fell into a pool of blood.

    Hundreds of garrison soldiers blocked the passage of the city gate with their flesh and blood. Although the infantry of the Qinghe Army flocked to the city gate, the two sides were bloody fighting in the passage of the city gate, and they were unable to break into the city for a while.

    Han Feng, the head of the 12th Banner Regiment, thought that as long as he broke through the city gate, he could take Yunxi Mansion without any effort.

    But when he saw that the troops rushed under the city wall, but were firmly blocked at the city gate, he couldn't help frowning.

    Instead of fleeing, the defenders are fighting to the death without retreating. This makes the infantry of the Qinghe army who are in charge of the attack puzzled.

    This was their first battle after the training of the 12th Banner Regiment, and Han Feng, the head of the Banner Regiment, naturally didn't want to disappoint Chen Ziang.

    Han Feng, head of the flag group, waved his hand, and more than 20 ladders followed quickly. Since the bloody battle in the city gate corridor made it difficult to break through for a while, they had to find another breakthrough.

    Under the command of Admiral Zhang Wenhua, the garrison soldiers and young men at the head of the city were throwing pots of hot oil and rolling logs towards the city.

    A large number of Qinghe Army soldiers gathered near the gate of the city encountered an attack from the top of the city. The dense team could not dodge in time, but there were also many casualties.

    "Pancheng!"

    Fortunately, as the ladder was quickly transported to the front line, under the command of the officer, the infantry of the Qinghe army who could not enter through the city gate quickly set up the ladder and began to climb towards the top of the city.

    More than 20 ladders leaned against the city wall in a row, and the infantry of Qinghe Army, with sabers in their mouths, climbed up quickly like apes, with vigorous and sensitive movements.

    "Block them!"

    "prick!"

    There were also shouts one after another from the top of the city. Some people threw stones at the ladder, and some shot with bows and arrows.

    There are also garrison soldiers leaning out of the battlements and using spears to attack the soldiers of the Qinghe Army who climbed the city wall.

    A garrison soldier aimed at a Qinghe soldier and stabbed his spear fiercely, trying to knock him down.

    But who knew that this Qinghe soldier dodged, instead grabbed the spear and yanked it violently.

    "ah!"

      The garrison soldier who was leaning out of the battlements was yanked violently, turned directly out of the city wall, and rolled down towards the city, letting out a shrill scream.

    This soldier of the Qinghe Army jumped directly into the city wall, and the saber in his hand simply and neatly knocked a dazed young man to the ground.

    The two garrison soldiers who were shooting arrows also backed away in horror when they saw the fierce Qinghe army soldiers chopping down Qingzhuang.

    The soldier of the Qinghe Army grinned grimly, stepped forward, and dealt with two guard soldiers holding hard bows one by one.

    One after another Qinghe army infantry jumped to the top of the city, and they formed a combat team in groups of three or four, slaughtering those garrison soldiers who were not strong in combat effectiveness.

    "Run!"

    The young man who assisted in defending the city saw the guarding soldiers continuously falling in a pool of blood, and saw the soldiers of the Qinghe Army approaching them with blood-dripping sabers. They were so frightened that they dropped their weapons and turned around and fled. The city was in chaos.

    "Kill!"

    "Kill the thief!"

    Although Admiral Zhang Wenhua was a civil servant, he still held a saber and fought fiercely.

    However, the garrison soldiers under Zhang Wenhua's command maintained law and order on the ground, and it was still a battle against those rabble-rousing bandits.

    Now what they are facing is the brave Qinghe army, and the Qinghe army is a tiger wolf division that beats the crap out of the generals and civilians.

    Zhang Wenhua led the defenders of Yunxi Mansion to resist and defend to the death. It was nothing more than a mantis' arms, and the only thing waiting for them was the end of defeat.

    When the infantry of the Qinghe Army gradually occupied the head of the city, the corridors of the city gate also allowed the Qinghe Army to break through.

    The corpses of hundreds of garrison soldiers who guarded the city gate corridor were spread from the corridor to the streets in the city.

    The remaining more than a hundred garrison soldiers have retreated to the street, and the infantry of the Qinghe army is swarming in from the city gate, and they are besieging and killing them.

    In the face of these powerful Qinghe army infantry, the more than one hundred garrison soldiers on the street were killed in the blink of an eye.

    The great banner of the dynasty at the top of the city was taken off and thrown down the top of the city, and the black wolf flag of the Qinghe Army was slowly raised.

    The remnants of the defenders led by Admiral Zhang Wenhua retreated into the city, trying to rely on the buildings in the city to resist.

    However, as a large number of Qinghe Army infantry poured into the city, the streets everywhere were gradually occupied.

    Zhang Wenhua and other remnants were finally compressed in the admiral's mansion. They closed the gate of the mansion, trying to rely on the high-walled compound to fight against the Qinghe army.

    "Listen to the people inside, put down your weapons and surrender, otherwise once you break in, you will be shot to death!"

    The infantry of the Qinghe Army surrounded the admiral's mansion, and the admiral Zhang Wenhua and others had become shackles.

    "My lord, what should we do now?"

    Now there are only a few dozen garrison soldiers standing beside Admiral Zhang Wenhua.

    Facing the surrounded Admiral's Mansion like an iron barrel, they are also full of despair now.

    They thought they could hold out for ten and a half months and wait for reinforcements to arrive before repelling the bandits.

    But who knew, in just over an hour, Nuo Da's Yunxi Mansion was declared to have fallen.

    "The reinforcements from the imperial court have not arrived for a long time. We have tried our best. If we continue to resist now, it will only increase casualties."

    When Admiral Zhang Wenhua saw these blood-stained soldiers, his gaze became dim.

    "Put down your weapons, go out and surrender, you can save your life."

    Hearing the Qinghe army shouting outside the gate of the mansion, Admiral Zhang Wenhua waved his hands feebly, telling the soldiers under his command to put down their weapons and surrender.

    Although these garrison soldiers were extremely unwilling, but in the time of life and death, in fear of death, they finally put down their weapons and opened the gate of the mansion.

    "I am Zhang Wenhua, the admiral of Yunxi Mansion. I ordered the defense of the city to the death and caused many casualties to your army. Now I will apologise, and please treat the people in the city and these irrelevant soldiers well."

    When the Qinghe army breathed a sigh of relief seeing the last remnants of the defenders putting down their weapons and surrendering, Admiral Zhang Wenhua stood on the steps and bowed deeply to the Qinghe army.  He swung a knife and killed himself.

    "My lord, my lord!"

    When the surviving garrison soldiers saw the admiral Zhang Wenhua slashing himself with a knife, some of them shouted in grief.

    Seeing that Admiral Zhang Wenhua was still thinking about the people in the city and the soldiers who had survived the bloody battle, even though he was an enemy, the soldiers of the Qinghe Army still respected him.

    "Contain the body of the admiral, and take it out of the city to bury it." The thousand-person general who was in charge of attacking the admiral's mansion ordered.
