Chapter 501 Xiongcheng
Tianjin and Cangzhou are currently the main defense areas of the two towns of Daming. Under the arrangement of the Longwu Dynasty, Huang Degong and Gao Jie have built a solid defense area with many dangers in this year.

It's not that there is no possibility of a positive breakthrough, but obviously there is no need for a positive breakthrough.

Just like Shanhaiguan.

Just go around.

So Zhu Youjian ordered that the Black Banner Army set off from Zhengding Mansion, go to Handan and then cross the canal to attack Liaocheng. At the same time, another army blocked Huang Degong's troops on the canal and land.

And the battle naturally started in Liaocheng.

"It's outrageous! It's outrageous! A bunch of what!?"

Hao Ya has arrived in Liaocheng, and not only has he arrived, but he has also scolded his mother in front of the city.

Because the process of his breaking into the territory of Ming Dynasty was too smooth.

There was no obstruction on the Wei Yun River. There was a county seat on one side of the river, and another county seat on the other side of the river. The fishermen and common people in the two counties watched the black flag army cross the river from a distance.

When he got to Daming's side, Hao Ya thought about driving the people away and occupying the opposite county, but the people on the other side came up to welcome him.

"General, the county magistrate of Guan County has escaped, please invite the general into the city."

"what?"

After a while, the village officials from several villages around Guan County also came. They all expressed their submission and asked the army if they needed a place to contribute.

In the county seat, there are only ruins everywhere.

It turned out that although they were now border cities, they were not included in Daming's defense plan, but were directly included in the buffer zone.

Therefore, a large number of people were moved to the back of Liaocheng, forming a line of defense with Dezhou, Cangzhou, and Tianjin.

The rest is hard to leave the homeland, muddle along.

Naturally, Hao Ya would not embarrass them, but in order to prevent them from harming the rear of the army, he forcibly recruited the few strong men left in the area and went to Liaocheng with the army.

Guan County had just arrived, and the army arrived near Liaocheng that day. The people here were much more resistant than Guan County. When they saw the black flag, they ran away and went straight to the city.

But they have already arrived in Liaocheng, and Hei Qi didn't even see a single spy, let alone stop him along the way.

Liaocheng was able to get the news of the black flag's attack, and it all depended on the local people to spread the word.

Therefore, Hao Ya cursed and asked his subordinates to prepare all the cannons, and then directly sent envoys to persuade them to surrender.

Fortunately, the guard of Liaocheng was Huang Fei. After rejecting the black flag messenger, he quickly sent letters for help to the two towns in the north and many Ming troops stationed in the rear defense line. I panicked.

He thought that the vanguard of the Black Banner Army was outside, and there would be a large army coming later.

But they don't know that the half of the firearms battalion outside is more terrifying than tens of thousands of troops.

"It's a pity too."

Knowing that the guard of Liaocheng would not open the door, Hao Ya was a little distressed.

It's not that I can't make a move, but it's just that I'm a little reluctant to make a move.

Moreover, Liaocheng is not an ordinary rough town. It is a majestic city surrounded by water, the seat of Dongchang Mansion, and there are only four bridges to enter the city. Even if there are cannons, you can only use force at the gate, and the gate explodes. Now, the resistance of the siege party rushing into the city is not small at all.

"Launch two rounds first! Calibration! The red-clothed artillery crew pay attention to possible counterattacks in the city! If it occurs, it must be suppressed immediately!"

Hao Ya gave the order, in short, let's see if he can make the guard on the opposite side quit.

After all, the [-] Firearms Battalion and thousands of civilians lined up many cannons in the north of Liaocheng.

About to fire.

But I saw a huge fleet of ships circled behind Liaocheng on Dongchang Lake next to Liaocheng!

Hao Ya's eyes darkened when he saw this!

Knowing that Dongchang Lake is a commercial port on the canal, and Huang Fei is also the commander of the navy, there must be a navy fleet on the canal. I didn't expect to see it when I was always on guard when crossing the canal, but now I saw it.

The city on the water is supported by a navy fleet.

"fire!"

There is really little hope of capturing Liaocheng, but the guns that should be fired still have to be fired.

The shells roared across the lake and the bridge, and rushed to the gate of Liaocheng. The Ming army navy on Dongchang Lake did not sit idle after they came out. After a little approach, they fired at the black flag station on the shore.

But the cannons of the navy on the lake have a limited range, so they can only show the black flag a firework.

But right.

Give Hao Ya the whole idea of ​​quitting.

It is impossible to fight with less troops.

The task given by His Majesty is heavy and time is tight.

Next, either ask for help from the rear, or collect and force the surrounding Han people, gather them all and act as armored men. In this way, with the firepower of the black flag, the Ming army may be repelled.

But right.

What Hao Ya didn't know was that Huang Fei in the city was also heartbroken by a round of cannonballs from the black flag.

I wonder if this is the striker of the Tartars!The firepower is so fierce!
How many red cannons are there!

"What happened to Xuanwei Gate!?"

Seeing the soldiers who checked the situation of the city gate come over, Huang Fei hurriedly asked!

"The gate of the city was shot three times! A big hole was opened!"

The soldiers were also a little panicked.

The city gate was directly blown to pieces, and after two rounds of bombing, the city gate would be opened!There is no urn city at the north gate, so the tartars can rush in directly!

We haven't seen the salary for several months, and we all rely on odd jobs in our spare time to make ends meet. When the time comes...
Let the elite and tartars under the general's command go all out!
Huang Fei didn't have time to watch the soldiers' expressions change. Hearing this, he hastily ordered the artisans in the army to repair the city gate, and ordered the city to urgently manufacture things for street fighting.

But at this time, there was another commotion in the city.

It's true that Huang Fei is the defender of Liaocheng.

But Liaocheng, as the administrative seat of Dongchang Prefecture, is the county magistrate of Liaocheng, the magistrate of Dongchang Prefecture, who is really in charge of the affairs of the city.

Huang Feirang expropriated wood in the city, and his request for defense resources was directly rejected.

"No! The water bridge at the north gate is [-] meters long! There is also a suspension bridge to stop the enemy! Jian slaves are attacking! All the soldiers attack it together, and the north gate can be turned into a place where slaves and thieves die! There are also sailors firing cannons from the side Can Nu'an be undefeated!?
At this time, I was thinking of expropriating people's property!We have to demolish the house and arm it!Don't you want to take advantage of the slaves' attack and take the opportunity to make money!Or slacking off and fighting timidly! "

Song Bingkui, the prefect of Dongchang, pointed at Huang Fei and yelled.

Even if there is a difference between civil and military superiority, Huang Fei, the governor and the prefect, the commander of the navy, and the admiral of the navy are more authoritative than him as the prefect.

He was able to do so because of the importance of the Dongchang Mansion in Liaocheng to Daming. As the only commercial port on the canal facing the Northland, its commercial value and interests involved a lot.

In other words, people's rights are already quite strong, and that's all, the relationship is still hard.

Huang Fei could only wait and laugh.

"What you said is, then let's draw from the east of the city first."

Song Bingkui nodded but shook his head again, with a look of success on his face: "Master Huang must first guard the east of the city, don't let Jiannu bring disaster to the commercial port, and then I will let many merchants in the commercial port contribute funds to help the military prestige."

"That's good, that's also good."

Huang Fei agreed, but saw that Song Bingkui, who was over half a century old, had some youthful vigor on his face, and said with a strategizing look on his face through this conversation: "Furthermore, there are not many slaves, why don't you lead the navy to bypass the canal to attack the building?" Slave rear! Maybe some gains!"
