Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 483 Breaking through Zhangzhou
On the city wall, Mr. Sun Qian couldn't help but his liver and gallbladder broke when he heard this. The Ming army had already killed the city, but suddenly a group of Zheng's army came to the city anyway, and it was still under the command of Shi Fu. So what else did he have to say? Definitely going to follow suit.

But at this time, Niu Lu of the Han army who was in charge of monitoring the city defense also found the group of troops who had suddenly arrived on the city. He separated the soldiers and said angrily: "The Ming army has rushed to the city, what are you group of birds doing?" Hurry up and return to your normal position, prepare to defend~"

Niu Lu hadn't finished speaking, but he suddenly saw clearly that the person who came was Shi Fu. He was slightly taken aback, then narrowed his eyes, and put his hand on the handle of the knife.

But at this time, Zheng Bing on the city wall did not wait for others to order, and surrounded him from all sides. Seeing this, Niu Lu showed a trace of panic on his face. Are you rebelling? I don’t even want to live~”

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Bing pierced his chest from the back when he was behind him, and blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly staining his armor, his face contorted in pain, and his body limp limply go down.

Seeing this, the Zheng army soldiers on the city hacked and killed all ten Eight Banners soldiers on the city.

Mr. Sun Qian saw that his subordinates had turned against him, so he had to quickly salute: "The humble official is willing to follow the general, and against his mother!"

After hearing this, Shi Fu patted Mr. Sun Qian on the shoulder in satisfaction, "This is the old brother! Mr. Sun Qian, order your men to wear red cloths on their left arms. This is a secret sign agreed with the Ming army. Those who have no weapons but no cloth can be killed. And the soldiers are not allowed to shoot arrows!"

Hearing this, Mr. Sun Qian hurriedly looked down the city, and saw that the Ming army was already within the range of the attack, he couldn't help but shivered, and quickly shouted: "Brothers, if you rebel, you are not allowed to shoot arrows."

"Mr. Qian has an order. Anyway, don't shoot arrows." One after another, the shouts echoed on the top of the city, and the soldiers loosened their strings and shouted together.

"Tie a red cloth on the left arm as a sign, it's reversed!" Immediately afterwards, there was another cry, seeing that the Ming army was about to attack, Zheng Jun's soldiers hurriedly cut off a piece from the inner robe and tied it on the arm.

Seeing this, Shi Fu stopped talking and immediately turned to go down the city. Mr. Sun Qian also reacted, drew his sword in his hand, and yelled: "Let's go, brothers, go to the north gate first."

Under the city, the Ming army pushed the carts and ladders, held the shields, and launched a charge. The momentum was like a rainbow, covering the sky and covering the earth. The chariot hit the city wall, and the soldiers rushed forward.

The Ming army charged with all their strength, and suddenly felt a punch hit the air, as if they were visiting the city, and easily boarded the city wall.

Of course, not all the city walls are so easy. There was fierce resistance at the gate of the North City, which was stationed by the green camp of Tong Yangjia's troops. Li's soldiers on the city were completely confused about the situation. He also prevented the Ming army from ascending the city, and waited for Wang Yan to let Li Yuanyin shout under the city before completely turning the point of attack.

At this time, the north of the city was completely in chaos. Zheng Jun, who was wearing a red cloth, killed the green battalion soldiers at the top of the city by mistake. The green battalion soldiers who shot arrows down the city were thrown into chaos in an instant, and they died without even thinking about it. I understand why he was suddenly killed by his colleagues.

"On the contrary, the Ming army has entered the city!"

There were shouts from the city, one after another, a large group of green battalion soldiers who were heartbroken, and they were at a loss. They also wanted to rebel, and they kept shouting, "reverse, rebellion", but they didn't know the code. The army rushed over, regardless of indiscriminate, slashing head and face, and the green battalion soldiers were cut down on the ground in the blink of an eye, and blood flowed horizontally.

If a strong city like Zhangzhou is attacked from the outside, it will be difficult to capture tens of thousands of people, but if there is internal strife in the defenders and there is an internal response, it will be simple. Right now, the defense of the Qing army in Zhangzhou City can be destroyed in a short while. Fall apart.

Tong Yangjia killed Li Chengdong and beheaded Dong Fangce. As soon as he pushed down Li Bu in the city, he saw that the top of the city was filled with bright flags. He was terrified and hurried his horse to the north gate.

At this time, he saw the defeated soldiers from the Green Battalion retreating from the city, and the Ming army climbed up the city wall one by one from the building carts, without stopping them at all.

At the gate of the city, countless soldiers of the Zheng army with red cloths on their hands had already removed most of the stone strips that sealed the gate. A general from the Green Battalion fled down the city, just as he met Tong Yangjia and cried out, "Futai My lord, Zheng Jun rebelled, Zhangzhou is over~"

Seeing Tong Yangjia, the defeated green battalion gathered spontaneously, because the four gates of Zhangzhou City were sealed with stone strips, and Zheng Jun killed them when he saw them. They had no way out, so they instinctively gathered around the governor.

At this moment, the gate of the northern city of Zhangzhou was opened with a bang, and the Ming army flooded into the city like a school of fish swimming against the current.

"Master Futai, what should we do?"

"It's over, what should I do!"

The Eight Banners and the defeated Green Battalion were in chaos immediately. Tong Yangjia's face was ashen, without saying a word, he suddenly rode his horse and rushed out of the crowd, leaving the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion in awe, at a loss.

A general from the green battalion came back to his senses, glanced at the gate of the city, and saw the Ming army roaring to kill him, he jumped up suddenly, even pulled a Eight Banners beside him from his horse, and chopped off the opponent's head with a single knife .

Everyone looked at him in disbelief, but he roared, "If you don't make meritorious deeds now, are you waiting to die?"

The soldiers of the green battalion reacted immediately, and went up one after another, fighting with Tong Yangjia's Eight Banners, but there were few people in the Eight Banners, and there were many people in the green battalion, and there were not enough heads, and the rest immediately dispersed.

The city of Zhangzhou was in chaos, and people from all walks of life were killed in a group. Many green camps had no choice but to kill the people in the city without the heads of the Eight Banners in order to save their lives. , adultery, a military disaster for the people in the city is inevitable.

Shi Fu and others led troops into Tong Yangjia's mansion, intending to capture Tong Yangjia alive so that he could ask Wang Yan for meritorious service, but there was no trace of him. In the end, they rushed to the government office again, but more than a dozen false officials including the magistrate were caught.

At this time, as the Ming army entered the city in a large scale, except for the soldiers who had the marks, everyone who had weapons would be killed.

From the siege to the occupation of Zhangzhou, the Ming army was useless for even an hour, and the combat intensity was not as good as a drill.

As the officers and soldiers entered the city, the people of Zhangzhou finally survived a frightening hour. The armies of the various ministries were ordered to return to the camp, and the prisoners were escorted out of the city.

At dusk, Wang Yan went into the city to appease the soldiers and civilians, and ordered the soldiers to post clipping notices, and then he went straight to Li Chengdong's mansion.What he wanted was nothing but the money that Li Chengdong said would be used to buy roads, but it turned out that Li Chengdong was really cunning, and there was only more than 3 taels of silver in the mansion, which greatly disappointed Wang Yan.

Afterwards, Wang Yan asked Li Yuanyin to inquire, only to find out that the silver taels that Li Chengdong had robbed were still in the Wusong area and had not been transported in time.

When it was getting dark, the Ming army counted the results of the battle, and all the puppet officials were there, but Tong Yangjia was missing. Wang Yan frowned slightly. Without Tong Yangjia, he couldn't do it, so he ordered: "The four gates of Zhangzhou have been sealed. God, he must still be in the city, let me find him, and dig three feet to find him."
