Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 347 Shen Yongzhong's Determination
At the head of Wan'an City, Shen Yongzhong witnessed the fire dragons in the distance being killed in pieces, and large torches appeared on both sides of the official road leading to Wan'an in Ganzhou, tens of thousands of them.

The screams of killing all over the sky came from a distance. Everyone knew that the Qing army who rescued Wan'an was ambushed, and Shen Yongzhong even punched the city with a furious fist, filled with regret in his heart.

He never expected that there would be a large number of Ming troops going around to the south of the city, and he already knew that he had fallen for Wang Yan's plan, which made him hate and fear, and felt a burst of despair in his heart.

It now appears that apart from the 3 troops killed along the Ganjiang River, the Ming army that entered southern Jiangxi also has the current one.Looking at the torches all over the mountains and plains, there are probably 3 to [-] people.

Based on this calculation, Wang Yan's army strength should be more than 6, which is [-] more than Luck Dehun's. Now that the Qing army has lost nearly [-] troops, the disadvantage is even greater.

Shen Yongzhong knew that with the Ming army approaching the city, he might never have any reinforcements.

"Open the door~ let us in~"

"The Ming army is coming, quickly open the city gate~"

Just when Shen Yongzhong was angry, a group of about a hundred Qing soldiers ran to the front of Wan'an City, throwing away their helmets and armor, shouting loudly, causing the Qing soldiers on the city to show a panic on their faces, and they all looked at Shen Yongzhong.

At this time, the battle in the distance seemed to have ended. Tens of thousands of torches moved towards Wan'an. Looking from the city, it seemed that fireflies appeared overwhelmingly in the summer night. The scene was spectacular, but it made the Qing soldiers on the city They were all terrified.

The battle on the official road was over. Most of the 5000 Qing soldiers were captured, and a few escaped in all directions. It was inconvenient to chase and kill them at night, so Dai Zhifan did not plan to pursue them. Instead, he left 5000 troops for He Zhen to deal with the battlefield. Ten thousand and [-] people raised fire and advanced, approaching Wan'an.

The Ming army in charge of the fraudulent city is the Green Battalion soldiers of Li Shiyuan's tribe who were recruited from Ji'an. They all shaved their heads and left their braids, so there will be no flaws on the outside.

At this time, Shen Zhixiang in the city looked at the screaming soldiers and the Ming army approaching in the distance, but his heart sank. He was extremely afraid of Wang Yan now, and he didn't want to open the door at all. It is inevitable that the Qing soldiers in the city will be chilled.

Shen Zhixiang is also considered a veteran of the battlefield. He has fought with his father for many years and has a lot of experience. Although these rout soldiers are bareheaded and have braids, it is not a problem for Wang Yan to capture northern Jiangxi and recruit some green battalion soldiers. Logically speaking, Wan'an City is small, and they were surrounded and attacked by the Ming army when they fled in. Anyone with a little brain would not choose to flee to the city. Entering the city is to let the Ming army catch a turtle.

At this time, Shen Zhixiang couldn't help but a cold light flashed in his eyes. He took a look at the rout soldiers under the city, and then told a boss beside him: "Open the city gate, let them enter Wengcheng, and prepare five hundred archers for surveillance. If they rob the city, shoot them all immediately."

"Zha~" Mr. Qian responded, and immediately beat Qian'er to leave, and then saw the Qing soldiers mobilized at the top of the city.

The defeated soldiers under the city couldn't see the situation above the city clearly, and they didn't know that Shen Zhixiang was on guard.The gate of the city opened creakingly, and the hundred households of the Ming army headed by it were overjoyed when they saw this. After a greeting, they swarmed in with the rout soldiers behind them. Running down the city.

The Qing soldiers in the city heard the sound of horseshoes, and their expressions changed drastically, but Shen Yongzhong's expression turned cold, and he sneered: "Hmph~ Sure enough, there is a fraud~"

The rout soldiers rushed into Wengcheng screaming, only to find that the inner door was not opened. The hundred households of the Ming army who were in charge of defrauding the city were shocked when they saw this, with a look of horror on their faces, and they hurriedly said: "No~ get out~ "

At this moment, a large group of Qing soldiers suddenly stood up on the city. They stretched their bows and set up arrows, and shot down a rain of arrows in an instant. The Ming army in Wengcheng was not covered, and fell down immediately. The hundred households turned around and were also shot. Heart, fell to the ground and died.

The Ming army in Wengcheng was in a mess, some wanted to retreat, some wanted to go up the city from the horse road, but they were all shot down by arrows, and only a few soldiers in the gate escaped.

At this time, a group of Qing soldiers took the opportunity to rush down the horse path, closed the city gate again, and then began to massacre the injured Ming army in Wengcheng.

The cavalry of the Ming army rushed to the bottom of the city, and when they saw the Ming army in the fraudulent city escaped from Wengcheng in embarrassment, they knew that the fraudulent city had failed. stop.

After a while, Dai Zhifan and the generals of the Ming army came to the city. He was a little surprised by the failure of the fraudulent city, but it was not a big deal. After all, there were only 3 green camps in the city, and he had [-] horses. what?

At this time, Dai Zhifan rode forward and came to the city of Wan'an. He had already figured out the situation in Wan'an and knew that the guard was Shen Yongzhong. The land in the north is completely owned by Ming Dynasty. Luck Dehun was pinched by Chu Guogong and Wan Dushi. It will be a matter of time before he will be defeated. You have also seen just now that the 1 horses Luck Dehun sent to rescue you have already After being defeated by this general, and even the main general Geng Jimao was killed, you have become a lonely army, when will you not surrender now?"

"Shoot the arrow~" Shen Yongzhong was startled when he heard that Geng Jimao was killed, and he felt a sense of sadness when the rabbit died. He knew that Dai Zhifan's words were not meant for him. Hearing the words, he immediately ordered: "Shoot this general to death He~”

Right now arrows were raining down from the top of the city, but Dai Zhifan's personal guards had already formed a shield wall in front of him, blocking the rain of arrows.

"Shen Yongzhong~" Seeing this, Dai Zhifan looked coldly at the head of the city and said, "Do you want to follow in the footsteps of your father?"

Shen Yongzhong's father, Shen Zhixiang, was the Duke of the Qing court. Huarong was captured by Wang Yan in World War I. Wang Yan was angry at his slaughter of horses and cut him alive in front of the two armies.

This is the eternal pain in Shen Yongzhong's heart, even if the Qing court is over, he will fight Wang Yan to the end.

At this time, from the top of Wan'an City, corpses were suddenly dropped, all of them were soldiers of the Ming army who died in Wengcheng. Shen Yongzhong asked the Qing soldiers to throw the corpses outside the city like a provocation, and then said loudly: "Dai Zhifan, You tell me Wang Yan, the hatred of killing your father is irreconcilable, if he wants Wan'an City, then he will trade his life for it~"

For the courage of the soldiers, Wan'an was an important place for Qing military supplies, so Le Ke Dehun arranged many confidants, and many Han Eight Banners were arranged in the city.

The failure of the Ming army to cheat the city made the Qing army a little calmer, but Shen Yongzhong's performance cheered them up.

Seeing this, Dai Zhifan frowned slightly, he had already seen Shen Yongzhong's determination, so he glanced at the top of the city, then turned his horse's head and returned to the army.

The [-] Ming troops were lightly armed and had basically no siege equipment. Dai Zhifan understood that Wang Yan did not want to consume his troops, so he did not rush to attack the city. Instead, he asked his soldiers to set up camp and prepare equipment.

The next day, during the siege of Ganzhou, although Jin Shengheng's warlord fought to the death, there were tens of thousands of horses in the city of Ganzhou after all, and the Qing army could only attack one side, and was finally defeated from the top of the city.

In the big tent, Luckard walked back and forth with his hands behind his hands, glaring at Jin Shengheng who was kneeling in the tent, and said: "Trash, 3000 people died, and they still haven't been shot down. What do you want me to do?"
