Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 747

After Wang Yan defeated the [-] main force of Boluo, the large net formed by the more than [-] Qing troops was equivalent to opening a big hole, and the previous strategy of the Qing army was completely disrupted.

In the duel outside Dasheng Pass, Wang Yan defeated Boluo, and the Qing army was hunted down by the Ming army. From the west of Dasheng Pass to outside Moling Pass, the Qing army lay dead for more than forty miles.

The Ming army beheaded nearly [-] people from the Qing army, captured more than [-] people, and seized countless supplies and war horses.

In Ningguo Mansion, Xiao Qihui, governor of Zhejiang Province in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, fought fiercely with Sun Shoufa in Jingting Mountain. Zhongwu Town chased and killed the defeated army. Here, like a divine soldier descending from the sky, he rushed into the right camp of the Qing army, beheaded thousands of Qing soldiers, and Xiao Qihui was defeated and returned to Xuancheng.

Afterwards, Liu Shun's army arrived and joined forces with Sun Shoufa to attack Xuancheng. Xiao Qi met with the reinforcements of the Ming army and judged that there had been a change in the internal battle.

On the north bank of the Niutun River, Duoduo defeated Li Guo again with his superior force, and the army pursued to Ruxukou, just when Gao Yigong crossed the river to meet him.

Zhongzhen Town had just gone through a big battle, the soldiers were very tired, Dodo was not feeling well, he was anxious to join Boluo, so he attacked Li Guo at all costs, although the Qing army broke through Li Guo's block twice, but they themselves lost heavily.

Similarly, after the appearance of the Gaoyi Gongbu, Duoduo also knew that the internal war might be over. The big net woven by the Qing army was broken by Wang Yan. defeat.

The two armies fought a battle, and it was difficult to distinguish the opponent. At this time, Ma Guanghui from Yangzhou sent another urgent report. Zhu Yihai took advantage of Duoduo's main force in the west and made a big move on the east front. Ma Guanghui has few people, so he can only concentrate on guarding Yangzhou, Huai'an has already fallen into the hands of the bandit army.

Huai'an is where the Yellow River, Huaihe River, and the Grand Canal meet. The location is extremely important, and Duoduo is absolutely not allowed to fall into the hands of the Ming army.

Right now, Duoduo couldn't help Gao Yigong, and there were Ming army sailors gathered on the river, and Duoduo was also worried about Jiangning's situation, so he stopped the battle and returned to Yangzhou, and the Ming army also withdrew to the south bank of the Yangtze River.

The northern and southern armies that the Qing army was in charge of outflanking were forced to retreat, Wang Yan's rear was safe, and the time was ripe to attack Nanjing.

Due to the huge losses of Li Guo's troops who were responsible for blocking Duoduo, and there were only [-] soldiers left, Wang Yan ordered Li Guo to garrison Wuhu, and quickly sent an order to Dai Zhifan to give up attacking Hefei and return to Anqing to ensure Huguang's arrival in Nanjing. The transportation line is not cut off.

After the military order was conveyed, Wang Yan mobilized all his troops to help the emperor's coffin to flee to Nanjing, and at the same time, as a general and the head of the military officials, he ordered the army to send Sun Shoufa, Zheng Chenggong, and King Lu to hunt Nanjing.

On August [-]th of the fourth year of Longwu, Wang Yan led a large army to Nanjing Waiguo, which used to be the southern capital of the Ming Dynasty, the center of the empire, and the most affluent and majestic city in the world.

Four years later, when Anzong fled, Qian Qianyi and others knelt in the heavy rain to welcome the Qing army's entry into the city. However, today, the Ming army is back.

Outside the city of Nanjing, soldiers in plain clothes came continuously from the wilderness to the west and stopped two miles below the city.

The Qing soldiers on the city saw more and more people gathered outside the city, but wherever they could see, they were all Ming soldiers in plain clothes. No amount of people, shoulder to shoulder, was enough to describe the power of the Ming army. .

The Qing soldiers saw crowds of people moving around the city, as if swarms of termites were moving their nests.

The key point is that there are so many people, but the whole wilderness is silent. It seems that there is a murderous aura, which makes the Qing soldiers a little breathless.

In addition to the large number of people, in this white ocean, there are also hills of equipment, which is the biggest test for the Qing soldiers.

Hong Chengchou, Bo Luo and others got the news that they had come to the city. They took a rough look and found that there were more than 100 red cannons covered with cannon coats. , These large-scale equipment, I am afraid that there are hundreds of thousands of them that can be seen with the naked eye.

Hong Chengchou looked at a tower as high as a building in the distance, with iron chains as thick as his arms, hanging a log that couldn't be carried by one person, and the front of the huge log was wrapped with an iron sheet.

If this huge monster hits the city gate, as long as it is pulled and released, even the city gate of Nanjing may be able to withstand a few bumps.

For a while, Hong Chengchou handed the binoculars to the officials next to him, and supported the city wall with a dignified expression, "Wang Ni has been hiding in Huguang for several months, this time he came prepared!"

When Boluo fought against Wang Yan, Wang Yan was traveling lightly and left all the equipment in Wuhu, so he didn't see so many equipment.

Now that he saw this, he knew that Wang Yan had really made sufficient preparations. If he didn't say anything else, he said that the log was probably transported from Yunnan, Guizhou or the mountains in eastern Sichuan.

"The emperor of the Southern Dynasty died of illness. This was originally a major crisis for the Southern Dynasty, but Wang Yan wanted to make sure that the mourners would win. Governor Hong, have you seen the murderous aura all over the mountains and plains!" Tong Tulai licked his chapped lips, Pointing to the road under the city.

Hong Chengchou saw that everyone was intimidated by the formation of the Ming army, which was not a good omen. He smiled slightly, "The soldiers of the Qing Dynasty used to advocate offense. Taizong took the initiative to attack the pass wall several times. In the opinion of the governor, if the defense is done well, it is also a kind of offense. Jiangning City has a high wall and complete fortifications. This time we use Nanjing to defend the battle, and the casualties to the Ming army may be greater than those in the field. The Ming army If we can defend Wuchang and Xiangyang and turn the situation around, our soldiers of the Qing Dynasty have no reason to do so, everyone, think about wearing flower feathers on your head, let’s give it a go!”

Hong Chengchou is indeed a master of strategy. When he said this, many Qing generals couldn't help showing their desire to fight.

Just when Hong Chengchou and others peeped at the situation of the Ming army from the city, Wang Yan was also surrounded by the city.

He still wears the golden armor, carries the precious sword, and wears the gold-plated six gods helmet on his head, but the red cloak is replaced by a white cloak.

Looking at the majestic city wall, Wang Yan and many soldiers couldn't help sighing in their hearts. This is the place that the whole nation dreams of. pain.

This kind of shame has been accompanied by the entire nation for four years, and now they have finally come back. With the offensive and defensive changes, how can the Qing army stop the thunderous fury of his [-] athletes' revenge!
Wang Yan was on the horse, looking back at the army, the soldiers were at their peak, his heart was full of pride and high spirits, his eyes cast a sharp look, looking at the city from afar, he suddenly chanted loudly: "Xi Su Linjiang swore to destroy Hu, the ten strong troops Wan Qi swallows Wu. Try to cast a whip across the sky, if you don't believe in the Central Plains, don't believe in Zhu!"
