Chongzhen Undergraduates

Duoduo watched with cold eyes nearly [-] people and the golden soldiers among them approached the city wall, and then slowly climbed up the city ladder.

When the first commoner showed his head from the city wall, he glanced at the city wall in horror.Immediately, two people jumped up from the base of the wall, held him down, and pulled down the battlement.

Immediately afterwards, a large fishing net came over, and the man was immediately dragged aside, picked up by several large wooden forks, thrown onto a wooden slide on the side of the city and slipped down.

Naturally, there were people in the city to respond, and they were quickly tied up.What awaits them is three days of interrogation, centralized detention and hard labor.Of course, except for the elderly, weak, women and children.Ordinary people can survive, as for the golden soldiers carrying weapons, they are directly hacked to death on the spot.

Duoduo watched a large number of people enter the city, but he didn't see the sound of swords and soldiers on the top of the city. He waited until the 1 people were delivered, and the fierce battle he imagined never happened.

Duoduo was stupid, this all-purpose poisonous trick completely failed, and sent a large number of laborers to the city for nothing.

"Your Majesty, the slaves have invited troops to attack Xuzhou." Tong Yangjia, the leader of the Zhenglan Banner, knelt on the ground and asked Duoduo.

"Good slave. But I don't want you to die in vain like this. Tell those bitches to go quietly to the city at night and dig a hole to bury the explosives to blow up the city."

Tong Yangjia was very moved. He felt extremely honored to be taken care of by a prince like Duoduo.

And Duoduo started to resent Xuzhou, so he didn't believe it. Your Xuzhou city is not built of bricks, can't it be rammed with loess?

In the middle of the night, Doduo was woken up by someone, and asked with sleepy eyes, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, this Xuzhou..."

"What happened to Xuzhou?" Duoduo didn't pay much attention.

"This city of Xuzhou was built with a huge stone. The foundation is embedded in the ground more than six feet, and it cannot be dug at all."

"How is this possible?" Duoduo was well-informed and had never heard of such an incredible thing.How can there be a whole city built with one huge stone.Let alone this kind of plain, I have never seen it even in the mountains.

"The slave dare not lie to the master, the master can send someone to check in person." The person who reported the letter was so frightened that his legs trembled.

Duduo naturally wanted to send someone to check, but he had already believed the words of the soldier in front of him.Duoduo has been in Henan for more than a year, and he has heard of some strange things in Nanjing.

In addition to the large number of scholars who went to the north from Nanjing more than half a year ago and some officials who defected from the Ming Dynasty, the Houjin side probably knew that there were cement and other things, but they didn't pay enough attention to it.

Before dawn the next day, when Jin Bing ignited the big thick coffin bomb buried under the city wall, there was only a muffled sound from the ground, but Xuzhou City remained motionless, showing no sign of collapse.

"Ming wins!" Immediately, the Ming army shouted in unison from the city of Xuzhou.For the first time, Yan Yingyuan developed confidence in defending Xuzhou.

Duoduo, on the other hand, directly sent someone to quickly report back to the capital, and reported the affairs of Xuzhou City to Dorgon.This is no longer a problem he can solve.

The battle report was sent to the capital and Wuchang at the same time three days later. Dorgon frowned when he saw the battle report, and immediately recruited Wang Duo into the palace.

"Hahaha, this is the tortoise shell that resists the cold weapon war. It cannot be broken or smashed." Zhu Youjian laughed when he received the battle report.

If Jiangbei hadn't made some preparations for cheating, wouldn't the million gold soldiers have been pushed all the way to the city of Nanjing?Dorgon was still too naive, thinking that he could take the opportunity to quickly capture Huaisi, but unexpectedly he bit the stone with the first bite.

"Your Majesty, is it impossible to break through a city built with difficult cement?" Li Laiheng has now become Zhu Youjian's new favorite general. After passing through Shang Nan's life-and-death friendship, the young Li Laiheng is also willing to ask Zhu Youjian many questions .

"Everything in this world is one thing and one thing. Although cement is strong, it is not invincible. The Jin army only needs to cast bigger and more powerful cannons to blow down the cement city.

Moreover, the city wall of Fengyang is not made of cement, and it can completely collapse.There is only one real cement city in Xuzhou. "

"Then why didn't the golden soldiers bomb Fengyang City directly?"

"Because the water in Fengyang's moat is too deep, the explosives cannot be ignited."

"Hahaha." Li Laiheng laughed again with Zhu Youjian.

"I want your Thirteenth Army to enter Henan quietly as soon as possible, and once again get into Princess Iron Fan's belly like Monkey King. Can you do it?"

Regarding Li Laiheng's Thirteenth Army, Zhu Youjian didn't expect to take it to the frontal battlefield in Jiangbei to consume it at all. He wanted to play a plain guerrilla to add some congestion to the Jinbing's rear.

And what Zhu Youjian really wanted to bring to Jiangbei was the 2 members of the Gao Yigong Department who stayed in Wuchang, and this was also the direct line of the Black Banner Army.

Zhu Youjian will quickly reorganize these people and the newly recruited Black Banner Army in Nanjing, and then form a mobile force of 15 with the cavalry to serve as a reserve firefighting team in Jiangbei and defend Nanjing City by the way.

And Dorgon in the capital also laughed.Although Dorgon frowned for a while when he received the battle report, he finally smiled.Because this matter was already within Hong Chengchou's expectation.

"Tell Prince Yu and the others not to attack for now. Surround the city first, and I will send someone to help them with siege artifacts. Don't worry!"

Dorgon looked to the south, but he was always calculating the deployment of troops in the entire Central Plains.

"We must rush to the city of Nanjing before the Sichuan army becomes an army." This is Dorgon's plan for himself.

The most intense battle is still Yimeng Mountain in Shandong.

Li Yan couldn't bear it any longer.

Chapter 2 Sixty: Li Yan's Desperation

Why do you say that Li Yan has reached the most dangerous time?

Because in just two months, 8000 of Li Yan's men died in battle, and all of them were killed directly, not counted as injuries.

Hauge's subordinates also suffered heavy casualties, but they had the rear, medical treatment, and a bunch of "two dogs" as scapegoats.Therefore, Hauge's direct casualties were less than [-].

According to this exchange ratio, Li Yan will face desperation if he lasts at most three months.

It's not that Li Yan can carry tens of thousands of people for half a year, that's kindergarten arithmetic.As casualties increase, the territory becomes smaller and smaller, and after the living space is compressed, Li Yan's casualties will increase geometrically.

Either transfer quickly, or add new forces, there is no other way.In short, Li Yan couldn't stay in Shandong any longer.

"Brother, we can't go on like this anymore. If we continue like this, we will be wiped out." Li Nian was bare-chested. He had three arrow wounds on his chest and was bleeding.

With his back to his younger brother, Li Yan was meditating.He has not contacted Zhu Youjian or Nanjing for more than a month.

Long-distance contact information in this era is either sent by person or sent by carrier pigeon.

Ever since the Luzhong Army went north, it has been surrounded by heavy siege, and it is unrealistic to send people to contact them.As for homing pigeons, a fixed location is needed to train the recognition ability of the pigeons. The Luzhong Army, which often moves to battle, does not have a fixed location at all.

Although Li Yan and the others contained a total of 20 Jin soldiers, their own living space was decreasing day by day, and it had reached the point where they could not move.

The Luzhong Army had already sent away a group of civilian personnel before the war, including many military doctors and nurses supported by Jiangbei.There are still more than 3 people in the Luzhong Army, but nearly [-] of them are wounded.

Jin Bing used the strategy of encirclement and suppression with a dragnet, and even used the fine dogs on the grassland, preparing more than 200 dogs, and chased Li Yan and the others smelling and smelling.The Luzhong Army is basically isolated and helpless, fighting independently.

"Brother, those dog noses are too good. Our several ambushes were seen through by the enemy in advance, and Shanwazi almost fell to his death. How can we fight this battle?"

"We can't withdraw." Li Yan didn't answer Li Nian's words directly, but just said it lightly.

"Why? Why can't we withdraw?" Li Nian was puzzled.

"Since I started going north, I have no intention of retreating to the south. I chose a dead end.

In order to buy time for Jiangbei to relieve pressure, our Luzhong Army can only choose to go north.If we go south, Hauge's 20 troops encircling and suppressing us plus the [-] defenders stationed in Shandong will all follow south.

Do you know how many enemy troops Huaisi will gather?A full one hundred and thirty-four million.If that time really comes, the entire Jianghuai will be crowded with enemies.
