Outside the city of Ganjiang, the Ming army had already set up a battle to surround the city.

As the last stronghold of the Qing army in Jiangxi, the Qing soldiers gathered here were basically diehards.

It is impossible to persuade to surrender, so you can only choose to attack.

Now the Qing army retreating to Ganjiang is only 50,000 people, while the Ming army besieging Ganjiang has more than 100,000 people, which can be said to be besieged.

Zhu Youlang wanted a quick victory, so he ordered his soldiers to use artillery to bombard the city wall to suppress the Qing army at the head of the city.

At the same time, dig tunnels to prepare coffins to blow up the city.

The weather has been very good these days, and it should not be possible to see sudden heavy rain.

If it doesn't rain, gunpowder won't get damp, and there won't be any emergencies.

This trick Zhu Youlang can be said to be very proficient, as long as the city wall is blown up, he basically takes down the Ganjiang River.

Li Dingguo and Zhao Xu are responsible for two tasks respectively.

Kui Dong Zhuxun and Zheng Chenggong were in charge of the feint.

Although it was a feint, the Qing army still did not dare to take it lightly.

After all, the strength of Kuidong Zhuxun and Zheng Chenggong is also very strong, if you don't fortify them, they will become a real attack.

"Your Majesty, after taking the Ganjiang River, the minister wants to rush back to Nanjing first. After all, Shi Lang, the thief, has always been eyeing Nanjing. ”

finally had a chance to communicate with the Son of Heaven, and Zheng Chenggong naturally had to seize it and perform well.

Zhu Youlang nodded and said, "What King Zhong said is reasonable. Nanjing is very important, and we must not afford to lose it. When Ganjiang City is broken, you will lead your troops to set off immediately. ”

Zhu Youlang paused and said, "As for me, I will also go to Nanjing to pay homage to Xiaoling later." It will be later, though. ”

Zheng Chenggong said in his heart, Son of Heaven, this is something to say.

On the surface, the Son of Heaven explained the itinerary, but in fact, he expressed to Zheng Chenggong that he might move the capital.

After all, the act of paying homage to Xiaoling is too special.

The Son of Heaven visited the mausoleum of Emperor Taizu, which has a strong symbolic meaning.

In addition, Nanjing is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and moving back to Nanjing can be said to be expected.

It's just that in this way, Zheng Chenggong's position has to be moved.

Originally, Zheng Chenggong lived in the garrison mansion, and now he will definitely move out.

But it's also a matter of time.

In the future, the Son of Heaven will definitely have other arrangements for Zheng Chenggong, and Zheng Chenggong only needs to act according to orders.

"The minister will definitely arrange all the matters to welcome His Majesty."

Zhu Youlang nodded with satisfaction.

At least so far, Zhu Youlang admires Zheng Chenggong very much, and Zheng Chenggong has also behaved very measuredly and fulfilled his duty as a minister.

As for the Zheng family's loyalty to Emperor Longwu before, Zhu Youlang didn't feel anything wrong.

At that time, the situation was different, and each was the master.

If it is really investigated, not only Zheng Chenggong, then Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan also have problems. Isn't Zhu Youlang unavailable?

"Your Majesty, why don't you use a hot air balloon this time!"

Liu Xingming, who was idle and panicked, was a little helpless, and begged Zhu Youlang: "Please ask Your Majesty to give me a chance." ”

Zhu Youlang only thought it was funny. Liu Xingming: This is addicted.

In fact, Zhu Youlang also likes to use hot air balloons, but he doesn't think it's necessary.

A mere Ganjiang city has not yet been bombed by a hot air balloon.

After all, there is still a certain risk in hot air balloons, and if they are shot down by Tartar with guns, Zhu Youlang will not be able to explain to Liu Tichun.

The reason why I chose a hot air balloon before was because I was not sure of winning, and I could only use a hot air balloon to gamble.

But what is the bet on a winning game? Isn't it fragrant to eat your opponent safely?

"I've made up my mind, so don't ask for any more war."

Zhu Youlang said with a smile: "This time, you will be a spectator and see how I will conquer this Ganjiang City." ”

Liu Xingming had to fight again, but Liu Tichun tugged at the placket of his clothes before giving up.

"Stinky boy, don't make trouble for Lao Tzu!"

Although Liu Tichun really wants to see Liu Xingming have a future, he is too late for everything.

The Son of Heaven has already said this, and it makes no sense for Liu Xingming to insist.

Repeated stubbornness will only disgust the Son of Heaven and affect his status in the heart of the Son of Heaven.

As for Yuan Zongdi, Li Laiheng and others, they basically agreed with Liu Tichun's approach.

People from the old camp should be more cautious in doing things, and they can't make a mistake

"Your Highness, the tunnel has been dug!"

In less than half a day, Li Dingguo's men dug a small section of tunnel.

Since the Tiger Ben Army has been covering with firepower, Li Dingguo's men did not have any risk, and they dug very happily.

"Okay, let's put the coffin."

Li Dingguo was already very familiar with this process, and now the Ming army only needed to stylize it to blow up the city wall.

The soldiers carefully carried the coffin down into the tunnel.

The tunnel is so narrow that only one person can pass through.

The two carried the coffin and moved slowly, one after the other.

In the case of potholes, they also have to adjust the angle and height according to the terrain.

Finally moved to the site of the planned blasting, and the soldiers worked hard to erect the coffin.

"Alright, put the lead in and we'll get out."

In the past, this work was done by the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army, but this time Li Dingguo's subordinates were still a little excited to do it.

After all, watching others do it and doing it yourself are two different things.

After setting up the explosives, the two soldiers bowed and retreated.

As instructed, they retreated to safety, the lead was pulled long enough, and the soldiers carefully lit it.

But at the sound of a stab, the lead ignited and sparks flew towards the entrance of the cave.

Everyone was watching the hole, because they didn't want any more accidents.

Smoothly conquering the Ganjiang River and taking the last stronghold of the Qing army in Jiangxi is the only thing that Yongli Junchen wants to do now.

It turned out that the explosives did not disappoint them.

But when I heard a loud bang, a gap was instantly blown open in the city wall north of the Ganjiang River, and stones and rubble flew and dust flew up.

When the dust cleared, the Ming monarch and ministers clearly found that the gap was large enough for several people to pass through at the same time.

The Qing army was obviously frightened and stood there dumbfounded.

As soon as Zhu Youlang Jinkou opened and ordered a general attack, the soldiers of the Ming army rushed towards the gap.

"Rush into the city, kill the captives and serve the country!"

"Kill the captives and repay the country!"

"For Da Ming!"

Sometimes it only takes a split second to change the course of the battlefield.

Seeing the tide of the Ming army rushing towards the gap, the Qing soldiers were so frightened that the six gods had no master under their feet and ran away directly.

No one dared to defend it, and they didn't think they could keep it.

When disaster comes, they fly separately, and saving their lives is the most important thing.

Take advantage of the fact that the Ming army has not yet entered the city, how far can you run. At this time, it is more capable.

So far, Zhu Youlang's mentality has also changed a lot.

After taking Jiangxi, Daming was finally qualified to compete with the Qing army for internal strength.

With the two granaries of Huguangjiang and Jiangxi, there are countless grains, and the army can be expanded at any time.

He no longer has to worry about a situation where he will collapse if he loses a game
