Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 348
Ganzhou was originally a strong city. Wang Shouren relied on this place to put down King Ning's rebellion. It was basically impossible for the Qing army to break through the city in a short time.

Facing such a fortified city, one must be fully prepared before it is possible to take it down. However, Luck Dehun forced the Qing soldiers to attack, and the result was only huge casualties, but the city of Ganzhou remained motionless.

Wanji and the Ganzhou defenders already knew that Wang Yan's troops were about to arrive, and seeing the division of the Qing army, naturally their morale was greatly boosted. In fact, Luck Dehun had no chance.

At this time, Jin Shengheng faced Luc Dehun's anger, but did not refute it. He also heard the news that Wang Yan was approaching Wan'an, and knew how Luc Dehun was feeling at this time. If he resisted, he would be severely punished .

Among the Qing army, with Luck Dehun's suppression of him these days, Hu Yousheng, a Han in Liaodong, Yang Yuming, Gao Jinku, Liu Wuyuan and others were promoted arbitrarily, his power has been greatly reduced.

These days, the Qing soldiers attacked the city day and night, and the main force of the attack was his men and horses. The loss amounted to [-] people, which made his generals very dissatisfied.

He knew very well in his heart that Luc Dehun had been looking for opportunities to deal with him, so he could only be patient and not give Luc Dehun a chance to attack.

At this time, all the generals have seen that Luc Dehun intends to suppress Jin Shengheng, and some generals have deliberately contacted Hu Yousheng and others whom Luc Dehun trusted, so as not to be slowly consumed by Jin Shengheng.

Now Jin Shengheng was extremely depressed. He knelt down without saying a word, feeling ashamed in his heart. He wanted to let Luckdhun finish his scolding, and let him speak after he breathed a sigh of relief, but Luckdhun obviously didn't intend to just let him go.

"Come here, let me drag this trash down and beat him with forty army sticks, and punish him for failing to attack the city!" Luck Dehun suddenly ordered.

Kneeling Jin Shengheng listened to Luc Dehun's words, but his heart was extremely chilled. Since he voted Qing, he has made great contributions to the Qing court, but Luc Dehun humiliated him so much, which filled him with resentment.

Jin Shengheng thought in his heart, "Why did you want to surrender in the first place?"

At this time, he regretted it very much, but he did not argue or even beg for mercy for the punishment of Luck Dehun. He is not an impulsive person, because he has already sensed the danger.

Ganzhou City is really not easy to fight now, and many Qing generals in the tent know very well that even if they go to attack the city, the result will definitely be the same, and they are not even as good as Jin Shengheng.

The generals in the tent heard the words, and at this moment they also felt that Luck Dehun was a bit too much, even the general Jue Luo Langqiu couldn't stand it.

"Lord Baylor, Admiral Jin has been attacking for days, and he is very diligent. I ask Lord Baylor to give him another chance~"

"Please Lord Belle, please punish me lightly."

With the forty army sticks down, Jin Shengheng must be bedridden, so who will command the next siege?A group of generals must plead for Jin Shengheng no matter in terms of morality or for their own consideration.

For a moment, the generals in the big tent knelt down together, and Leket frowned slightly when he saw this. Among the people, he was considered to be a relatively intelligent type. Hitting Jin Shengheng was done after careful consideration.

Now he looked at the kneeling generals, even Jue Luo Langqiu pleaded for Jin Shengheng, he understood that his intentions were too obvious and had made the generals feel unhappy.

At such a special moment, Luc Dehun knew that he could not go against everyone's wishes, but he was not prepared to compromise completely, so he said coldly: "For the sake of the generals' plea, change it to ten army sticks. I'll give you a chance, if you still can't break through Ganzhou, then come and see me~"

The generals of the Qing Dynasty did not dare to persuade Luck Dehun to make concessions, but Jin Shengheng remained silent and let the soldiers take him out of the tent.

Seeing this, Luck Dehun waved his hand to make all the generals retreat, but Jue Luolangqiu was left behind.

At this time there were only the two of them in the tent, Jue Luo Langqiu asked with some doubts: "Master Belle, the current situation is extremely unfavorable to us, and it is time to win people's hearts. Why did Lord Belle humiliate Jin Shengheng so much?"

Le Kede heard the words, narrowed his eyes and said: "It is precisely because of the current crisis that this commander wants to humiliate Jin Shengheng, make him feel dissatisfied, and argue with this commander, this commander can take the opportunity to cut him off, but this Jin Shengheng is very You are shrewd and didn't give Ben Shuai a chance."

"Cut off Jin Shengheng?" Jue Luo Langqiu was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Lucde wanted to kill Jin Shengheng outright.

Lu Kede nodded and said: "Yes, he is the admiral of Jiangxi, and I can't kill him casually, so I beat him with the army stick. In this way, if he continues to swallow his anger, this commander will use this to weaken him. The prestige in the army can also allow him to continue to attack the city and consume his troops and the Ming army in Ganzhou City. If he is resentful and refuses to accept the punishment, then the commander can say that he does not obey orders and kill him."

Jue Luo Langqiu was a little shocked, but at the same time he was a little worried, "Master Baylor, the enemy is now at hand, and Jin Shengheng is very good at fighting, isn't he self-destructing the Great Wall?"

"Since Wang Yan entered Jiangxi this time, it took almost half a month to go from Jiujiang to Taihe, and all the places he passed were waiting for the wind to surrender. This shows that the green camp has no resistance at all!" Luc Dehun shook his head and explained. Said: "It has only been more than a month since my commander entered Jiangxi to take control of the military. Although Jin Shengheng was suppressed by this commander, he still has a high status in the green camp. Now that Wang Yan is approaching, how can this commander tolerate his existence?" ?”

"Master Baylor is worried about Jin Shengheng's betrayal?" Jue Luo Langqiu seemed to understand.

"The green battalion in northern Jiangxi can rebel. As long as the situation is unfavorable, Jin Shengheng will definitely rebel, and I heard that Wu Zunzhou, the secretary of the shogunate, has rebelled and has become the Jiangxi patrol censor in Nanming. How can you rest assured me? !"

"Is there such a thing?"

"In the current situation, the most reliable thing is that we are full of people. With Jin Shengheng, this commander cannot completely control these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. So in fact, no matter whether Jin Shengheng is a traitor or not, this commander cannot tolerate him." Lu Kede said coldly. He said: "Now we are going to fight Wang Yan, you know how powerful he is, so this commander must completely control the army before confronting him head-on, and anyone who blocks the way of this commander should be cut off, do you understand? ?”

Jue Luo Langqiu nodded. He completely understood Luck Dehun's intentions. To be honest, he didn't trust the Han people very much. Moreover, when he was fighting Wang Yan, it was a godsend to have such an uncontrollable existence beside him as Jin Shengheng. Big hidden danger.

Seeing that Luo Langqiu understood what he meant, Luck Dehun said cruelly: "Go and urge Jin Shengheng today. If you can break Ganzhou, then find other opportunities to get rid of him. If you still can't, then Just kill him on the charge of being unfavorable in attacking the city. This commander has given him a chance, so the generals of the green battalion in the battalion will not have anything to say~"
