Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Wu Zhen, the Patriarch of the Wu family, was a little panicked. Although he was as stable as a dog on the surface, when he received the news that the army was approaching, he panicked in his heart.

The other families are easy to say, but my Wu family really has a branch that has been wiped out by the nine clans!

And what's even more damning is, how come there is a large army surrounded all of a sudden?The manpower sent to Nanjing by my side, after calculating the time, they have just arrived in Nanjing City, right?

Divine Soldiers descended from heaven?

After forcing himself to calm down, Wu Zhen cupped his hands and said: "Brother Xu, the army is besieging you, you still have to make up your mind first."

Hu Changfeng said: "No matter what you say, you have to send people to find a way to spread the news and let those people come over, otherwise we really won't be able to leave!"

Xu Wenxuan said: "Brothers, please rest assured, my Xu family has been running Jiangnan for many years, how can it be that I don't have any backup?"

Pointing to the yard casually, Xu Wenxuan continued: "Not to mention that the entire Wubao is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the food is enough for ten thousand people to feed for a year. Even if it is really impossible to defend, it is not impossible to retreat."

After pointing to the bottom of the foot, Xu Wenxuan said again: "I really can't hold it anymore. There is a secret passage under the bottom of the foot leading directly to the mountain thirty miles away. By then, the mountain guard will be able to hold it?"

Hu Changfeng said: "How many people can pass through the secret passage?"

Xu Wenxuan said with a smile: "It's no problem to walk three or five people side by side, and there are dragon-breaking stones and explosives in many places inside, when the time comes to put down the dragon-breaking stones one by one and blow up the secret passage, those officers and soldiers can't chase after them! "

Hu Changfeng sighed and said: "Xu's business has been in business for a hundred years, and it really deserves its reputation. It is such a secret passage of thirty miles, and I don't know how much manpower and material resources it will take."

Xu Wenxuan smiled quite complacently: "From the excavation to the completion of this secret passage, it took a whole generation to complete it. Today, no one else knows about it except my Xu family's main line of word of mouth."

Hu Changfeng said: "In that case, I'd like to ask brother Xu to make arrangements to send Hu's subordinates out and transfer them here."

Xu Wenxuan shook his head and said, "It's okay to send people out, but you can't transfer people here."

Without waiting for Hu Changfeng to ask, Xu Wenxuan explained: "Since the army has surrounded this place, it's not realistic to stick to it.

For the immediate plan, it is better to transfer people directly to the mountain, bypassing those officers and soldiers, and then plan the future. "

Wang Wenyi, head of the Wang family, said: "If this is the case, wouldn't it be a fallen grass?"

Xu Wenxuan said: "Where did the grass come from? After going up the mountain, we can make long-term plans, and even take advantage of the time when the officers and soldiers have not reacted, we will directly raise the banner and attack the county town!"

After finishing speaking, Xu Wenxuan laughed again: "Actually, we can't even talk about beating the county. As long as Xu repairs a letter, the gates of Huating County and even Songjiang Mansion will be opened wide."

While several people were complimenting each other, the officials of the Xu Mansion hurried over, bowed and said: "Master, the officers and soldiers outside are sending someone to shout."

Xu Wenxuan stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "Brothers, let's go and have a look together?"

Several other people responded immediately: "Go together, go together."

Before arriving at Wubao, Xu Wenxuan said loudly: "Xu is here, I don't know who is outside? Today's son is unvirtuous and kills innocent people without permission. Why don't you abandon the dark side and turn to the light? It's also a good way to make a contribution to the dragon!"

Zhao Guang, who was sent out from thousands of households, immediately ran through a group of divine beasts.

The emperor lost his virtue?Abandon the darkness and turn to the light?from dragon?

You fucking want to piss off Ben Qianhu so that you can inherit Ben Qianhu's position, right?

Xu Wenjue, who was behind him, also lost his interest, and simply ordered: "Since these people want to die by themselves, let them go on the road and attack!"

As soon as Xu Wenjue gave an order, the attack drum began to beat, and the artillery that had been prepared for a long time also started the first round of test firing.

After the sharp piercing sound, there was the explosion of shells falling to the ground.

Because of the large number of cannons, the angles of the cannon barrels are different, and the places where the shells land are also different.

For those with high angles, the shells had already landed directly on the top of Wubao, while those with low angles landed in front of the gate of Wubao.

Xu Wenjue quietly listened to all kinds of shouts and orders to adjust the angle of the gun barrel coming from behind him, and kept silent with a dark face.

Damn, in the first round of test firing, only a few of the nearly a hundred shells hit the expected position, and the others all deviated to varying degrees.

These bastards, you have to continue practicing when you go back!Practice to death!

As early as when Xu Wenjue's cavalry were preparing to attack, Xu Wenxuan noticed the small movements of the Ming army on the opposite side, and hurried back with several other Patriarchs.

Hearing the constant explosions outside and feeling the vibrations on the ground, Xu Wenxuan's expression turned ugly: "How many cannons did the officers and soldiers bring this time? Why are they so powerful?"

It is not that there is no artillery in the Wubao of my own family, but compared with those brought by Xu Wenjue, the power is simply the difference between heaven and earth, and it is as ridiculous as the firecrackers set off by children during the Chinese New Year.

After gathering his mind and calling for the housekeeper, Xu Wenxuan said directly: "Order people to send Brother Hu's people out, remember to transfer those people to the mountain to settle down first, and then send the madam and the young ladies to the mountain .”

After finishing speaking, Xu Wenxuan turned his head and said to several Patriarchs: "It seems that we can't keep it here, and we will go to the mountain later."

The other patriarchs responded with black faces.

Just now you fucking bragged your bullshit to the sky, saying that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and now you say you can't defend it?

What are you doing yourself, don't you have any clues in your mind?

This is a rebellion, a business of the Zhulian Nine Clans!

Xu Wenjue outside Wubao was staring at Wubao in front of him, admiring the bursts of explosions caused by shells, but a fast horse galloped over from a distance, and it rolled off the saddle when it got behind him, and said: "I want to report to you, my lord. Urgent order!"

ps: Today, I sacrificed the great god's work "Big Cousin of the Northern Song Dynasty".

Chapter 6 Seventeen

Xu Wenjue took the urgent report from the messenger and looked at it for a while. After a sneer, a series of orders were passed on, and then he turned his head to Wubao in front of him.

The Xu family has managed Jiangnan for a hundred years, and the Wubao they built is really powerful, and it can actually withstand four or five rounds of artillery bombardment.

But there is no use for birds, and there is no high-grade special cement for construction. The so-called Wubao can withstand four or five rounds and has reached its limit.

Having been with Emperor Chongzhen for a long time, Xu Wenjue also learned Emperor Chongzhen's big bombing method-artillery advance, bombing in turn.

It took half an hour to blow up like this before Xu Wenjue yawned, waved his hand and said, "When it's almost done, send soldiers in to gather those who surrendered, and those who don't surrender will die!"

……

Passing Xu Wenxuan's study, a hole appeared behind the bookshelf that had been removed. There was not even a trace of light in the dark tunnel, just like a monster that wanted to choose someone to devour.

After searching from the back of the bookshelf, Xu Wenxuan took out a torch, lit it with a torch, and walked towards the secret passage first.

There is some mess in the secret passage, obviously there are traces of many people passing by in front.

Walking in the secret passage, except for Xu Wenxuan who didn't show any special expression towards this secret passage, the rest of the patriarchs all opened their eyes wide, staring at the endless secret passage in disbelief.

Everyone in the world knows that there is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is easy to build a [-]-mile-long underground passage to get out. Anyone from my family can afford it.

But if the environment in this secret passage is guaranteed, as well as the service life of the secret passage, it is a very serious problem.

Hu Changfeng gave a thumbs up and said in admiration, "How much manpower and material resources will be needed to build this secret passage?"
