Long Sheng was about to find a few more people to ask, when suddenly a group of Qing soldiers came running down the street, about fifty people. However, these Qing soldiers did not bring weapons, and shouted all the way along: "You banner soldiers who have been killed by heaven, the Ming army is just a scourge to the enemy, how can you even harm your own people." ”

Someone else shouted: "These brutes have no humanity at all, so they should be killed by the Ming army." Hearing the words of these people, Long Sheng looked at the Qing army next to him, pointed to the houses on both sides of the street and said, "You did all this?" The Qing soldier suddenly said: "No, this is all ordered by the garrison." ”

Then I heard those people crying: "The Ming army is not a good thing, it is not the same. Oh my God, my daughter-in-law was killed by all these shitty things. They want us to help them defend the city, they are jackals. ”

Long Sheng's face darkened, and he yelled at those Qing soldiers: "Let go of your mother's bullshit, our Restoration Army will never harm the people." You are all blind, and you are the soldiers who have harmed the people, and now it is still on our heads. ”

When those Qing soldiers heard this, they immediately looked at Long Sheng and the others. Only then did I find that there were a lot of Ming troops standing here, and they were suddenly speechless. Long Sheng said: "You are really confused, just now it was those Eight Banners soldiers who harmed your family, and we killed them and drove them away." Now they are still scolding us for the Restoration Army, which is really unreasonable. ”

Seeing that Long Sheng was angry, these dozens of Qing soldiers were suddenly frightened. One of them said: "We didn't say the general, it was the Qing court who said so." Since the general helped our family drive out the Qing soldiers, we are here to thank the general. As he spoke, he bowed to Long Sheng.

Long Sheng didn't really want to be angry with these people, but seeing that they were still wearing the clothes of the Qing soldiers, he suddenly said, "Why are you still wearing the clothes of the Qing soldiers?" The man who replied just now said: "If you return to the general, we are the Qing soldiers who escaped from the security gate just now." We don't help the Qing court anymore, we help them, and they still come to kill our family. ”

Long Sheng also knew that he couldn't tell these people clearly, so he said: "Okay, don't run around, take off your clothes, lest other people see you and kill you as Qing soldiers." With that, he took the army and left with him.

At this time, a Qing soldier rushed out of a private house and said to Long Sheng: "General, you really don't rob the people's things? Long Sheng said: "This is still fake, okay, you stay at home and don't run around anymore." Otherwise, it will really be misunderstood by others. ”

The Qing soldier said: "General, I'll go with you, I'll follow you to kill the Qing soldiers, I want revenge." Long Sheng was stunned and looked at the Qing soldier. The Qing soldier said sadly: "General, my family members have been killed, and those Eight Banners soldiers just now killed them." I'm going to kill those Eight Banners and avenge my family. ”

Hearing him say this, a Qing soldier next to him said: "Sun Anhe, you are crazy, we just ran out of the Qing army, and you still want to go back and die." Sun Anhe said: "This is not to send to death, you look at our family." They were killed by the Eight Banners, and if we don't avenge them, are we still human? ”

Long Sheng patted Sun Anhe on the shoulder and said: "Good job, you have to be bloody, everyone is bullied to the head, and you don't dare to come forward, what kind of man." Sun Anhe looked at the Qing soldier who had just spoken and said, "Yang Shishi, are you going?" You look at your home, is this still a home? ”

Yang Shi took a look at the dilapidated home that had been smashed. Immediately, he also said ruthlessly: "Okay, let's all go and go to those Eight Banners soldiers to take revenge." "This Yang Shi was the patrol captain in the city before, and when he said this, everyone else also agreed.

Long Sheng didn't expect that he could still meet a group of anti-water Qing soldiers, and he was immediately overjoyed: "Okay, let's go to those Eight Banners soldiers now to take revenge." With that, he set out with the army.

Sun Anhe saw the braid on Yang Shishi's head, went over and picked up a knife on the ground, grabbed the braid on his head with his backhand, and then cut it off with a knife, and said: "Today, we will be inseparable from them, the Eight Banners, and we will let them pay for their blood debts." ”

When the others saw that Sun Anhe had cut off his braids, they also cut off their braids one after another, and said, "Yes, let them pay for their blood debts." Long Sheng was also very happy to see the high morale of the people. remembered that when I entered the city just now, many robbing Eight Banner soldiers shouted that the Ming army entered the city, and at the same time kept robbing the people.

Long Sheng said: "All the soldiers of the Restoration Army, listen, our slogan has changed. Everyone stopped shouting that the Ming army was entering the city, and they all sang military discipline songs to me. The others also reacted, remembering what the Eight Banners Qing soldiers had done just now, and immediately sang loudly.

And Sun Anhe and others, who just joined, can't sing. Long Sheng asked them to shout: "Daming Wangshi, don't disturb the people." Anyone who dares to enter the house will be killed. In this way, it suddenly formed a sharp contrast with the Eight Banners in the city. Previously, many people thought that the Ming army that entered the city was the same as the Qing soldiers, but now after listening to the slogans and songs of the Ming army, they understand that the Qing soldiers are doing something that hurts the heavens and reason.

It is somewhat unrealistic to let these people rebel against the Qing soldiers. But as long as the Ming army approached, the Qing army wanted to run away, and they were immediately pointed out by the people they had just bullied, helping the Ming army to clear the Qing army in the city as soon as possible.

Long Sheng led the army to the city, and after a few streets, he ran into An Yang and others who came from Wenchangmen. When Anyang saw that Longsheng's army was singing military discipline songs, he immediately stopped shouting slogans, and sang military discipline songs together. Now the Qing army in the city, only the defenders of the other city gates, do not dare to come to the city to stop the Ming army.

It should be said that Wuchang also has nine city gates, each of which has 3,000 defenders. In the entire Wuchang City, there were nearly 30,000 troops at the gate of the city. There are also constant patrols and servants in the city, and there are about 10,000 of them. It stands to reason that there should not have been such an empty defense.

If the officials in the city came forward to organize the defense, it would be very difficult for the Restoration Army to break through Wuchang and take full control of Wuchang. However, Zhang Changgeng and Yang Maoxun went to Wangshanmen and were captured by the Restoration Army. Yue Le in the city didn't pay attention to the Ming army at all before, thinking that with the Qing army outside the city, it was enough to defeat the Ming army, and if he didn't get it, he could completely annihilate the Ming army.

But what Yue Le didn't think about was that this time it was not the ordinary Ming army, it was Zhu Youdong who personally led the army. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the Restoration Army is several times higher than that of the ordinary Ming Army. Moreover, the number of the Restoration Army is not a small team of a few thousand people.

In addition, the capture of Zhang Changgeng and Yang Maoxun also made the defense of Wuchang lose its unified command. In addition, there were eight banner soldiers roaring in the city before, disturbing the morale of the army. Let the defenders of the other city gates think that the Ming army has broken through the city.

Therefore, the defenders of the other city gates did not dare to bring troops to the rescue without authorization. Even the Qing army of Zhongxiaomen saw that the Ming army was coming to attack Baoyang Gate, and many people in the city were shouting that the Ming army had entered the city. There was no order to transfer troops for support, and for a while he didn't dare to come to the rescue. Seeing the ferocity of the Fuming army's attack, the defender simply took the army directly, ran out of the city through Wushengmen, and went to the camp of the Qing army in Hongguan.

There were originally 3,000 troops in the military camp in the city, but they had been taken to Wangshan Gate by Yang Maoxun, and because they saw the Eight Banners robbing and setting fire in the city, they had already dispersed automatically. In the entire city of Wuchang, there was no formed army by mistake. So as soon as Long Sheng and An Yang met, the two of them coincidentally led their troops to the governor's yamen.

Long Sheng and An Yang excitedly thought in their hearts that if they could catch Yue Le in one fell swoop, this credit would be great. Now Sun Anhe and others led the way, and the two quickly rushed to the Governor's Mansion with their troops. But what made the two depressed was that Yue Le had already run away.

Not only did Yue Le run away, but there were also troops from the Restoration Army, who had already occupied this place first. Long Sheng and An Yang had no choice but to let their subordinates take the army and continue to exterminate the Qing army in the city. Then let Sun Anhe and Yang Shishi come forward and gather the people in the city. Let them keep the city safe, and all those who rob the people will die on the spot.

Just when Longsheng and Anyang arranged for people to maintain order in the city, someone ran over and said: "General, go to Wushengmen, the prince of the Qing court is surrounded on Phoenix Mountain." When Long Sheng and An Yang heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. The two immediately rushed to Phoenix Mountain near Wushengmen with their troops.

When the two of them came over with the army, they found that there were only more than 500 people here blocking the Wusheng Gate. And there are still a lot of Restoration Army in the city, which are rushing here. After Long Sheng arrived, he hurriedly asked the Fuming army at the gate of the city, "What's the matter?" Didn't you say that Yue Le was blocked here? What about people? ”

Those Restoration Army guarding the city gate were really the first team to rush into Wuchang City before. By this time the garrison had been wounded and was carried by several soldiers and placed on a door panel. Now when he heard Long Sheng asking, he immediately said: "The Sixth Army garrison Zuo Jiangchuan has seen my lord, just now we came to block the Wusheng Gate, and before we had time to deploy the defense, we were rushed over by a group of people. ”

Long Sheng saw that Zuo Jiangchuan's injuries were also very serious, and the whole person looked very weak. Suddenly, he said: "Needless to say, the process is not to be said, are you sure it is Yue Le?" Zuo Jiangchuan saw that Long Sheng interrupted his speech, so he had no choice but to say: "Yes, I heard them shouting by themselves, let people protect Prince An and leave quickly." Then he turned to the vicinity of Phoenix Mountain, where I was wounded by his guards. ”

Long Sheng said: "Okay, rest first, I'll send someone to search." Then seeing that there was no Lang Zhong to treat Zuo Jiangchuan's injuries, he immediately shouted: "Where is Lang Zhong? Come and heal someone. Zuo Jiangchuan said: "No need, I know my injury, I just have to wait for you to take over Wushengmen, and now that I hand it over to you, I will rest assured." Long Sheng listened to Zuo Jiangchuan's tone and took a closer look. Only then did I find out that Zuo Jiangchuan also had a piece of clothing on his body.

Long Sheng took a look at his clothes, and suddenly this person was stunned. Zuo Jiangchuan's entire chest and stomach were all pulled apart with a knife. The entire entrail was exposed, and the blood was still pouring out. Long Sheng hurriedly shouted: "What about Lang Zhong? Why haven't you come yet, hurry. ”

But Zuo Jiangchuan was already dying, and said to Long Sheng: "No need, I can't be saved now." You must catch which Yue Le, and you must not let him escape. The Qing court killed so many generals and princes of our Ming Dynasty, and we can't let them have a good time. ”

After Zuo Jiangchuan said this, the whole person couldn't move. muttered: "My home is in Kaifeng Mansion, I really want to go back and see." But it was destroyed by the Qing army and could never go back. ”

and the soldiers of a regiment and battalion in Zuo Jiangchuan immediately cried when they heard this. A soldier said: "My lord, you have to get better, let's fight back together, and we have to find the Qing army for revenge." They have killed so many of us to make them pay with blood. ”

When the soldier looked up at Zuo Jiangchuan, Zuo Jiangchuan was already out of breath. Now Wushengmen has been taken over by the soldiers of the Restoration Army brought by Longsheng. Zuo Jiangchuan's subordinates all ran over one after another, but they could only see Zuo Jiangchuan, who was already dead.
