The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 543 Announcement
The Ming army's offensive is very fast!
With fierce attacks again and again, people kept breaking into Zhenjiang City.

The living space of the Qing army in the city is being compressed bit by bit.

In fact, it stands to reason that the siege should be surrounded by three and one missing!

Use such psychological tactics to give the Qing army in the city the illusion that they can escape.

Use this to reduce the will of the Qing army to resist!

However, the siege tactics adopted by the Ming army this time were to encircle the city on all sides.

The Ming army was very tough, and there were only two choices for the Qing army in Zhenjiang City, either surrender or die!
There is no other choice!

Because, Zhu Hongyu wants to use Zhenjiang to fight to announce to the whole Jiangnan and the whole world.

Daming is back!
Boom!Boom!
The shelling continued.

Heavy artillery shells fell on the city wall of Zhenjiang one after another. In the blink of an eye, the city wall of Zhenjiang was covered with cracks from the shells.

The masonry debris fell rustlingly!

Flowering bombs fell in the city, and the sound of explosions continued one after another.

The explosive bombs used by the Ming army were filled with almost all new types of gunpowder, and the explosive power was astonishing, far exceeding that of black gunpowder.

The explosion of each flower bomb was a pleasant surprise to the Qing army in the city!

Tuhai led his troops to hide in a corner of the city, still wanting to resist stubbornly.

These desperate Eight Banners soldiers fought very bravely. Under the command of Tu Hai, they fought fiercely with the Ming army and fought endlessly.

Facing the bayonet charge of the Ming army, the Eight Banners of the Qing army also mustered up the courage to launch a countercharge.

Amidst the crackling gunshots, countless lead bullets flew across the battlefield, killing the Eight Banners soldiers who rushed to the front.

However, the fighting will of the Eight Banners soldiers was unexpectedly tenacious. Facing sharp bayonets and dark muzzles, they charged forward one after another.

But it's normal, even if it was against the British and French allied forces in the late Qing Dynasty, although my Eight Banners disciples in the Qing Dynasty were poor in combat effectiveness, they were not bad in blood.

It also fought several battles with high casualties.

The most typical example is the Battle of Baliqiao commanded by Seng Gelinqin. The Qing army that participated in the battle was almost wiped out, and most of them died in the charge.

The record is embarrassing, but their fighting will is still good!

At that time, the Eight Banners of the Qing Army could be so bloody, let alone the Eight Banners of the Qing Army now?

The fighting on the front lines of the two sides soon fell into a melee!

Seeing the anxious battle ahead, Zhu Hongyu climbed onto a high platform in person to beat the drums to cheer for the siege soldiers.

Boom!dong dong!dong dong dong!

The dull sound of war drums resounded throughout the battlefield.

Seeing Jian Guo beating the drum himself, the Ming army's morale became even higher.

Because the resistance of the Qing army was too tenacious, coupled with the difficulty of the heavy armored infantry.

In order to break the formation, the Ming army dragged a large number of small-caliber artillery, grenades, and rockets into the city.

Rumbling explosions sounded one after another!

Clouds of fire, smoke and dust exploded in the Qing army formation, clearing out patches of vacuum.

Opened the offensive channel for the Ming army!

The Qing army in the city was continuously strangled, and those Mongols who were not strong enough to fight began to choose to surrender to Daming in large numbers.

Although the remaining Eight Banners of Manchuria are stubbornly resisting, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just their dying struggle.

Tuhai's request for help was sent to Jiangbei, and the Qing army in Jiangbei received an order to cross the river for reinforcements.

However, what greeted them was the shells fired by the naval ships of the Ming army!

Under the blockade of the Ming army's navy, it was not difficult for the Qing army to pass on the news.

After all, it is impossible for the navy of the Ming army to really block the entire Yangtze River waterway, and there will always be fish that slip through the net.

It is not difficult to row a small boat across the river in a team of three or five!
However, it is absolutely impossible for the Qing army to cross the river with a large number of troops to reinforce Tuhai's troops.

It is true that there will be fish that slip through the net in the blockade of the Ming army, but at most three or five small fish and shrimps will be missed, try if you have a scale of hundreds?

The Qing army's reinforcements were blocked in Jiangbei by the Ming army's navy, and they couldn't cross the river at all!
As for the Jiangnan Qing army in the upper reaches and lower reaches of Zhenjiang, no one dared to jump out to stroke Ming's tiger's beard when the decisive battle was already divided, the Qing army in the Southern Expedition was about to be wiped out, and Jiangnan was about to return to the Ming Dynasty.

Most of the people chose to wait and see very wisely. They sat and watched the war end, and Tu Hai and others were besieged and wiped out in Zhenjiang City.

What's more, he took the initiative to send a letter of allegiance to Zhu Hongyu, expressing his attitude of allegiance to Daming.

During this process, Qian Qianyi showed his due role.

Taking advantage of his reputation among scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, he made preparations for the mansions of those big families who frequently went to and from the south of the Yangtze River in series before and after the Ming Dynasty, and made preparations for the whole of the south of the Yangtze River to be established for the spread of the Ming Dynasty.

This is also the reason why Zhu Hongyu accepted Qian Qianyi.

He really looked down on Qian Qianyi's soft bones, but he had to admit that weak bones are not necessarily useless.

Qian Qianyi is in the middle of the series, waiting for the Zhenjiang war to end, Tuhai's troops are wiped out, and Jiangnan will be able to spread the news!
……

"kill!"

"Kill the thief!"

"Hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon, we are from the Qing Dynasty, we must not surrender to bandits!"

Tuhai continued to command the troops around him to fill the vacancies on the front line.

Then I watched helplessly as the fully formed troops went up and retreated.

In the blink of an eye, most of them were killed or injured by the shelling of the Ming army.

Seeing the heavy losses of the Qing Dynasty, Tu Hai's heart was twisted like a knife!
Facing the heavy armor of the Qing army in formation, it was very difficult for the infantry of the Ming army to break through.

Even if it is to use heavy steps to deal with heavy steps, it is by no means an easy task.

It is not so easy for a heavy armored infantry to be killed with cold weapons alone.

However, why did the Ming army have to use infantry to deal with infantry?
There are so many artillery pieces in the army, they are not decorations!

While the artillery roared, the shells cleared the way for the infantry.

The living space of the Qing army was drastically compressed until they became crowded sardine cans.

Thousands of remnants of the Eight Banners were besieged by the Ming Army regiments near the government office in Zhenjiang City!

Morale is quite low, because everyone knows that at this point, their last moment is coming soon.

……

Zhu Hongyu nodded while listening to the messenger report on the battle situation in the city.

"Send someone to persuade you to surrender!"

"Tell the slaves in the city that if you surrender, you can live, and those who resist will be killed!"

Zhu Hongyu was going to persuade the Eight Banners in the city to surrender, and it was no longer necessary to continue fighting at the current level.

The rest of the Qing army must not be able to make waves!
The reason why Zhu Hongyu persuaded them to surrender was to disgust those Eight Banners soldiers and declare to the world.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners have all formed a system and surrendered to Ming Dynasty, why don't you hurry up and make the most correct choice?

Of course, if those Eight Banners soldiers surrendered, Zhu Hongyu would definitely fulfill his promise.

If you don't kill them, don't kill them!

After all, no matter what, it was thousands of strong laborers.

How wasteful is it to kill them all in one go?

Throw them into labor camps, dig mines and move bricks, build bridges and pave roads to make atonement, isn't he good?
The heinous kind, throwing him to Tai Hospital to contribute to medical progress, isn't he good?

To be honest, it depends on the treatment in the labor camp and the work to be done.

If you really entered the labor camp, you would be better off dead than alive!
Although it is said that it is better to live than to die, but scoring is a way to live, isn't it?
Zhu Hongyu glanced at the prisoner kneeling in front of him, and ordered casually.

"Don't you want to prove your loyalty to Gu? Go ahead and persuade those who are still stubbornly resisting in the city to surrender!"
