Xie Sanqin went on the battle himself, and with his amazing skills, he killed the city, and fought dozens of Turpan defenders with his own strength, tore a hole in the enemy's defense line. The personal soldiers took the opportunity to climb to the city and tore the hole even bigger. Then they were out of control. The Ming army used the siege ladder to rush up to the city like a tide, completely occupying the city south of the city.

After getting rid of the terrain disadvantage, the power of the flintlock rifle was exerted. The musketeers who climbed the city wall pulled the machine one after another. The gunshots were like beans. The Turpan defenders were either killed or fled to the city wall, and they all fled.

Dongdongdongdongdong...

Isana looked at the flag of "Xie" flying high above the city, and was so happy that she smiled and beat the war drum even harder. The other drummers tried their best to almost break the drum surface made of cowhide.

"Run! Kill!" Jizhou soldiers rushed up the city along the cloud ladder and rushed along the head of the city to the west and east ends of the city.

Because the city gate hole was blocked by a large number of bricks and stones, it was difficult to clean up for a while, so Xie San simply gave up opening the city gate and ordered a fight along the two sides of the city. On the one hand, it stretched out the team and on the other hand, it helped the Datong army at the east gate climb the city.

The east city gate is right on the south city gate. At this time, the Datong army led by Yu Linsheng was attacking the city. However, after more than an hour of bloody battle, morale has begun to decline.

Just when Yu Linsheng was a little depressed, he suddenly heard the drums in the south of the city and the cheers were shaking the sky. He turned his head in surprise and looked at it, and said in thought: "It's broken, have you been the little guy Xie Sanqin climbed the city first?"

Just as Yu Linsheng thought of this, he saw a red "Xie" flag flying high on the head of Nancheng. He couldn't help but slapped his head and shouted in annoyance: "Oh, I really let that boy Xie Sanqian take the lead. Damn, the war drums are beating, I can't lose to Old Pei anymore."

Dongdongdongdongdong...

The drummers of the Datong Army beat the war drums hard and launched a fierce offensive.

At this time, the Turpan defenders on the city were at the end of their strength. In addition, seeing that the Ming army's battle flag had already been planted on the south city, the morale of the army was even more in chaos, so soon, the Datong army also attacked the city. Immediately afterwards, there were also earth-shaking cheers coming from the north of the city, and the "Pei" character raised the flag!

Xu Jin on Mingsha Mountain put away his glass and said relaxedly: "The overall situation is settled, let's go, go down the mountain and go back to the camp!"

Immediately, Xu Jin walked down Mingsha Mountain under the guard of a group of personal soldiers and returned to the commander's tent. At the same time, Xie Erjian and Qi Jingtong led the Shenji Camp, which had been ready to go, and rushed towards the west of the city.

The time was just right. When the Shenji Camp went around the west of the city, Hu Lina, the general of the Turpan Eastern Expedition, led three to four thousand defeated soldiers to escape from Ximen in a hurry. The result was imagined. The Shenji Camp killed the defeated soldiers with just one charge, with countless casualties.

However, Hu Lina was very lucky. He escaped under the desperate protection of his personal soldiers and disappeared into the vast Lop Nur desert. Xie Sanqian and Qi Jingtong chased each other for more than 30 miles and dared not chase him. They quickly retreated along the hoof tracks to avoid the wind and sand smoothing the hoof tracks. In the harsh environment of Lop Nur, it is very easy to lose its direction, and it may be wiped out. This is not a joke.

Speaking of Lop Nur, it is necessary to briefly introduce it. Lop Nur was called Yanze in ancient times. It was a lake located in the southeast of Xinjiang, my country. Because it looks like a human ear, it was copied as "ear of the earth" and is also called "the sea of ​​death". Its area can reach 20,000 square kilometers at its largest area.

During the Han and Tang dynasties, there was sufficient water source and a large population. The ancient Loulan Kingdom, which was once prosperous in history, was on the bank of Lop Nur. However, with the continuous decrease in the injection of water sources in the upper reaches, the area of ​​Lop Nur continued to shrink. By the Ming Dynasty, the Loulan area had already become a barren desert, and the ancient Loulan City had become a legend buried under the sand. It was not until modern times that it was discovered by Western "archaeologists" that these greedy cultural relics thieves almost emptyed the cultural relics in the ancient Loulan City.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the area of ​​Lop Nur was about 2,000 square kilometers, but due to excessive reclamation, the water source was drought sharply, and eventually Lop Nur completely dried up and turned into a sea of ​​dead sand, integrating with the vast Takramakan Desert.

Let’s get back to the point, let’s talk about the Shenji Camp stopping its pursuit and retreating back to Dunhuang on the same route. At this time, the remnants of the Turpan defenders in Dunhuang City had been almost completely cleared, and the entire city had completely fallen into the hands of the Ming army. At this moment, various Ming troops were busy cleaning the battlefield.

In the evening, after the Ming army cleaned the battlefield, the blocked city gates were also opened. Xu Jin came to the south gate with a cheer of "Wansheng". The generals were already waiting in line, saluting towards Xu Jin who was coming towards him, shouting in unison: "See the General!"

Xu Jin looked full of spring breeze and raised his hand and said, "Don't give me a gift. Thank you for your hard work in recent days. I will hold a banquet to celebrate your merits tonight. All soldiers will be rewarded with two taels of silver. The military merits will be made for another victory!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole army suddenly cheered and laughed!!

Although two taels of silver are not too much, the nearly 100,000 army, each of which is two taels per person is two hundred thousand taels, which is a big deal. What's more, the two taels of silver are just an extra reward, so the soldiers at the bottom are all in great pleasure.

Xu Jin's eyes finally fell on Xie Sanqiang and smiled and said, "I have always done my best to say anything. General Xie, the moonlight will be yours in the future. Big head, bring the horse up!"

Zhao Datou, this guy, pulled the moonlight up in response!

The four hooves of the moonlight are long and powerful, tall, without a single hair on their bodies, with big eyes as big as copper bells, and very divine horses. When they run, they are like a beam of light, fast and steady, like a divine horse. No horse in the army can run better than him, including Bing Niuer's dark cloud covering the snow.

Looking at the divine moonlight in front of him, all the generals were so greedy that their eyes shone. Xie Sanqin happily took the reins from Zhao Datou, and smiled and said, "Thank you, the general!"

Isana carefully touched the pure white mane of Moonlight and said happily: "Congratulations to Brother San Gun!"

Xie Sanqiang grinned, stuffed the reins into Yisana's hand, and said softly: "Nana, give you the moonlight!"

Isana was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said, "What about you!"

Xie Sanqiang blinked: "Hey, you are my moonlight!"

Isana's face turned red, and her heart felt as if she had eaten honey.

Pei Laopi laughed and said, "Okay, the old man of the Xie family has saved all the betrothal gifts!"

The soldiers couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the father-in-law Xie Qing laughed and scolded: "Boy, I forgot about me when I have a wife!"

When Yisana heard this, she became uneasy and hurriedly said, "Brother San Gun, let's give moonlight to my father, my father likes it!"

"This is called Dad. It seems that the bride can't wait!" Yu Lin said intriguingly.

Everyone burst into laughter again, and Xu Jin couldn't help laughing and smiled and said, "Princess Yisana is filial to you, but since you have given three guns to you, then accept them. I will find another good horse to respect the elderly. After returning to Beijing, I will offer you another great gift on the day you get married with Sangu."

By the way, Xie Sanqiang had already told Xu Jin about the showdown. He learned that Yisana had "accepted his fate" and gave up his position of restoring the country, so Xu Jin now regarded Yisana as his "his own person".

Although the Tatar woman had a cheerful personality, Isana was still a little embarrassed in front of everyone, and blushed and whispered: "Thank you, the coach!"

Xu Jin laughed and waved, "Go into the city!"

Next, the soldiers surrounded Xu Jin and entered Dunhuang City. A simple celebration banquet was held that night, killing pigs, sheep and adding vegetables, and everyone had a share.

…………

On June 18, the sixth year of Jiajing, Turpan general Yalan led an army of 50,000 from Hami to approach Guazhou City. When the front line arrived at the north bank of Shule River, he finally received news of Guazhou and Dunhuang falling one after another.

Yalan was shocked and immediately ordered the entire army to stop the front army. After staying for a night, the veteran Turpan, who had been through many battles, actually ordered a retreat, led a 50,000 army to turn around and quickly slipped back to Hami City.
