Anti-Qing: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 354 Conquer Tianjin

There were hot air balloons of the Ming army watching over the battlefield. Every move of the Qing army was completely one-way and transparent to the Ming army.

The Qing army was just about to gather its forces when the Ming army's hot air balloon discovered it.

Immediately, the heavy artillery group began to quickly adjust its shooting at various elements under the command of the hot air balloon, preparing to launch the bombardment.

The result was that as soon as the Qing army gathered its forces, the Ming army's artillery attack followed closely.

One shell after another accurately hit the Qing army's head.

Boom! Boom!

The bomb exploded the moment it hit the ground, sending smoke and dust into the sky instantly.

The air waves spread quickly along with gunpowder smoke and firelight, and broken limbs and broken arms flew...

The Ming army used a round of artillery fire to defeat the Qing army's blocking force behind the city wall.

The Qing troops behind the city wall began to flee in all directions.

Basically all the junior officers have taken the lead in rushing through it more or less a few times.

Soon, the clear banner at the top of Tianjin City was lowered and replaced by a high-flying clear banner.

The bayonets reflected the cold light under the sunlight.

Seeing this, the soldiers around Fu Changan began to attack the Ming army in front of them, trying to repel the Ming army.

"Brothers, follow me!"

Fu Changan was carried to the front line of the battlefield, but what greeted him were groups of Ming troops with bayonets drawn.

Shout loudly and rush forward!

"Brothers, kill, defend Tianjin, defend the Qing Dynasty..."

Even if the Eight Banners officers in the Qing army waved their swords desperately to supervise the battle, they still could not change the general trend of the collapse of the Qing army.

Behind him, the soldiers under his command were greatly boosted in morale when they saw their battalion commander leading the charge.

However, what greeted them was the Ming army lining up to shoot them.

The black Ming army poured into Tianjin Fucheng.

In order to boost morale, Wang Dahe rushed in front of everyone.

Seeing this, Fu Changan's eyes were splitting, and he attempted to lead a counterattack to recapture the city wall captured by the Ming army.

The Qing army in front of them was almost defeated.

"Drive out the Tartars and restore China. Today, the Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"

He raised the command sword in his hand high and shouted.

With a loud banging sound, several long wooden boards were put up on the trench. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty stepped over the wooden boards and continued to charge forward.

At this time, the Ming army was full of vigor from top to bottom, and it was not uncommon for officers to take the lead in charging.

However, his severely injured body really could not allow him to lead the charge.

At the same time, the Ming army's siege troops had already rushed to the trench outside Tianjin with bayonets drawn.

Snapped! Bang bang!

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty raised their guns and fired a volley.

The crackling gunfire sounded and the smoke filled the air. A large area of ​​the Qing army in front of them fell down.

Blood gushed out from the wound and seeped into the gaps in the floor tiles.

The air is filled with the pungent smell of blood!

After firing the volley, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty continued to rush forward.

And when passing by the Qing army who fell to the ground, he raised his bayonet without hesitation to hit the opponent.

Phew! Phew!

The sharp bayonets easily pierced the cotton armor worn by Fu Changan's soldiers, taking away the last chance of life of these Qing troops.

Seeing this, the remaining soldiers around Fu Changan could only protect their master and wanted to withdraw from the battlefield.

However, before they could run far, another group of Ming troops appeared on the street corner.

Two teams of Ming troops, one behind the other, blocked Fu Changan and his party on the street.

"Kill!"

"Soldiers, kill the Tatars!"

"charge!"

"..."

The cry of killing rang out, and Fu Changan's troops seemed quite powerless when facing the bayonet charge of the Ming army.

In just an instant, they were overwhelmed by the charge of the Ming army. Fu Changan was also stabbed through the chest with a bayonet. The sharp bayonet rotated slightly, breaking Fu Changan's heart.

His eyes widened and he stared at the Ming soldier who killed him, his eyes full of unwillingness and despair.

The flames soaring into the sky dyed Tianjin city red for most of the day. When he was dying, Fu Changan seemed to have seen the end of the Qing Dynasty...

There was a pop, a flash of sword light flashed, and Fu Changan's head fell to the ground.

The headless Qiangzi also fell to the ground, lifeless.

With Fu Changan and his soldiers killed in battle, Tianjin was finally captured by the Ming army.

……

The news of Tianjin's fall quickly spread to the capital as if it had wings.

Soon, Yong Rong of the capital received the news that Tianjin had fallen and Fu Changan and others died in battle.

Yong Rong fell onto the dragon chair, his eyes full of despair.

Now he really feels that the building is about to collapse!

At this moment, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the hall. Xiao Yunzi walked in from the outside with a happy face, came to Yong Rong's side, and opened his mouth to report.

"master!"

"I'm so happy, Master!"

"Our army stationed in Baoding has returned for reinforcements!"

"Now the army has arrived outside the capital city!"

When Yong Rong heard this, his stiff face suddenly regained its expression.

With a bang, Yong Rong stood up from the dragon chair and spoke loudly.

"Good! Good! Good!"

"Reinforcements have arrived, and there is hope for the Qing Dynasty."

At the same time, Xiao Yunzi continued to speak.

"Returning to the emperor, in addition to my troops from the Qing Dynasty, the two princes Yongyan and Yonglin also led their armies to the outside of the capital city, preparing to join forces with the emperor to fight against the Ming thieves!"

When Yong Rong heard this, the smile on his face became even wider.

he laughed.

"very good!"

"Send the order and order a banquet outside the capital city. I want to personally receive the two imperial brothers..."

With Yongyan and Yonglin leading troops to help, Yongrong now really saw some hope of keeping the capital.

……

Tianjin Fucheng!

In Tianjin City, the Ming army was undergoing repairs and preparations for departure.

Zhu Jing'an stood in front of a map in the war room, pointing the country.

Together with the generals, he planned the strategy of advancing the army.

"Judging from the current situation, the Qing court's heavy troops have gathered in the Baoding area, and a fierce civil war is still going on."

"If I, the Ming Dynasty, take advantage of this opportunity to march in and recapture the capital, we can take advantage of the opportunity and achieve maximum results at the minimum cost..."

"The battle to regain the capital is imperative!"

Zhu Jing'an said.

"If our army wants to invade, the first choice is to go through Tonghui River..."

At this moment, the Ming army generals on the side expressed their opinions one after another and discussed the strategy together.

Zhu Jing'an sat in the main seat, nodding his head from time to time to express approval.

At this moment, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the war room.

Zhang Jin walked in from the outside with a military report in his hand. After the report, he came directly to Zhu Jing'an and spoke.

"Your Highness, urgent report from the direction of the capital!"

"The main force of the Qing army has withdrawn from Baoding and has already withdrawn to the capital."

"In addition, Yongyan and Yonglin also chose to join forces with Yongrong to fight against our Ming Dynasty..."

"My Ming Dynasty's battle to regain the capital may be full of twists and turns!"
