Liao Zhongping glared, these people in front of him were not the guards he brought.

"Lord Liao, your guards are fine, but they were invited to drink by their subordinates." Xiong Rulin laughed.

How could Liao Zhongping believe that his personal guards did not have his own orders, even if the emperor invited him to drink, he was afraid that he would not leave.

So, Liao Zhongping looked at each other angrily, "Do you all want to rebel?" ”

Zhang Huangyan stood up and greeted: "Lord Liao doesn't have to worry about the safety of your subordinates, they did go to drink, of course, they were reluctant to go down, but Lord Liao can rest assured that they will not be in danger of their lives." ”

"You guys premeditated this?" Liao Zhongping is not stupid, he suddenly grabbed the door, he is confident that as long as he can get out and mobilize 5,000 Jingwei, he can grasp the initiative.

But when he ran to the door, he found that Zhang Guowei and the others had no intention of chasing him at all, and they didn't even shout.

This made Liao Zhongping feel very bad.

Sure enough, Zhang Guowei said: "There are still 7,000 people in Hangzhou Wei, although the reinforcements of the Shaoxing Mansion are not enough, it can still be done by surrounding the martial arts field...... In this way, I will prepare the horses for Lord Liao and accompany Lord Liao on a trip? ”

Liao Zhongping slowly retreated.

He had to retreat, because the hundreds of soldiers in black uniforms outside were neatly arranged on the left and right sides, and they had no weapons in their hands, but their eyes were all staring at him, Liao Zhongping knew that even if he was stupid, these soldiers were veterans and elites, and even if he had three heads and six arms, he was afraid that he would not be able to get out of their eyes.

Rather than being dragged back, it is better to take the initiative to return.

Liao Zhongping slowly sat back in place under the eyes of everyone, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and said after drinking a full drink: "If you want to kill me, you can do it." ”

Zhang Huangyan smiled and said: "Lord Liao is a loyal and righteous person, and we are not anti-ministers, why do I want to kill you?" ”

Liao Zhongping was stunned and said: "If Liao does not die, he will inevitably report what happened today to His Majesty." ”

"Listen to me." Zhang Huang said.

Liao Zhongping was really puzzled, "Then what is your purpose in detaining Liao?" ”

Zhang Guowei said: "The purpose of detaining Lord Liao is to prevent the two armies from fighting. At the same time, I hope that Lord Liao understands that the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Four Guards is fighting a bloody battle with our common enemy, and I hope that Lord Liao will not help the abuse. ”

Xiong Rulin said loudly: "Liao Zhongping, in a word, you have been eating and drinking well here these days, and when the crisis of Shaoxing Mansion is resolved, I will let you go back to Beijing." But if you intend to cause trouble, then don't blame me for being rude. ”

Zhang Guowei said: "Please Lord Liao hand over the talisman." ”

Liao Zhongping said angrily: "Fu is in the people, and the Fu is dead." ”

Zhang Guowei shook his head and let out a light sigh, "Does Lord Liao still want to provoke a fight between the two armies?" ”

Liao Zhongping suddenly raised his head and said, "Even if you hold this official hostage, this official will not hand over the soldier talisman on his chest." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, Zhang Guowei was the first to react, and said loudly: "Come on, take down Liao Zhongping." ”

Several soldiers quickly pressed Liao Zhongping, and Zhang Guowei stepped forward and took out the talisman from Liao Zhongping's chest, "Offended." ”

After speaking, he turned his head and said to Xiong Rulin: "Lord Xiong, early tomorrow morning, you can lead 5,000 people to cross the river to reinforce the general." ”

Xiong Rulin stared at Liao Zhongping for a while, and then arched his hand and said, "Thank you." ”

……。

People are forced out.

In the city of Shaoxing, Song An, who was in a stalemate with the Qing army, was the same.

Under the stalemate, Song An began to recruit the strong in the city.

The people of Shaoxing City, who had been slaughtered by the Tartars for more than half an hour, were already filled with righteous indignation.

As a result, Song An easily gathered more than 2,000 strong men.

Song An didn't want to follow Zhang Ada's example and drive the strong man to charge desperately.

While gathering the strong men, he also collected the Eight Immortal Tables from every household of the people.

Cover the table with a water-soaked quilt.

Early the next morning, when the sky was still bright, Song An broke up the musketeers into groups of three, let the strong men carry the table legs, the table was facing the enemy, and the musketeers were deployed behind, and then lined up in a row along the three main streets to attack the southern city.

That's not all, Song An divided his troops to go to the roof and shoot from top to bottom.

This kind of "earthen tank" really made the Qing soldiers helpless, and the attack power of the arrows was greatly suppressed.

And when the Qing army roared and charged, the concentrated fire of the musketeers made it difficult for them to surpass Lei Chi.

In desperation, the Qing army wanted to repeat yesterday's method, and they used the bumps of the storefronts along both sides of the street to avoid musket fire.

But at this time, the musketeers on the rooftops along the street crossed fire at the Qing troops below.

The Qing archers had no choice but to tilt their heads upwards and suppress the roof musketeers.

But at this time, the "earth tank" was already approaching.

After a morning of fierce fighting, the Qing army was forced by Song An to a corner of the southern city after losing nearly half of the men.

The musketeers from three directions began to close, and this Qing army had become a turtle in an urn.

In the afternoon, Song An ordered a general attack.

But when the "earth tanks" approached the Qing army step by step, and the musketeers loaded their short swords on the muzzles of their guns and prepared to charge, more than 1,000 Qing troops suddenly surrendered.

Song An accepted the surrender of the Qing army.

But after disarming, he turned around and ordered the more than 1,000 captives to be escorted to the eight-foot archway on the main street, and all the captives were killed in front of tens of thousands of people.

This was in response to his pre-war order, leaving not a single prisoner of the Qing army who slaughtered Shaoxing City.

This battle made Song An really have some experience in musket combat.

It was also this battle that made Song An officially enter the ranks of generals who commanded the army alone.

But this is also equivalent to destroying the only hope of survival for the people in Wuzhuang who were taken captive by Duoduo.

……。

Where did Wu Zheng go?

It is true that Dodor is unusually sensitive to the situation on the battlefield, and his predictions are correct.

Wu Zheng went to Shaoxing, of course, it was not there at this time, to be precise, in the direction of Shaoxing Mansion.

The reason why Wu Zheng changed direction was that he learned from the mouths of the people along the way that there was a tragic siege battle in Shaoxing City.

This did have a great impact on Wu Zheng's heart.

Wu Zheng regretted it, he deeply regretted it in his heart, he should not classify the people of Jiangnan as numb and slack.

The people of Jiangnan actually know how to fight!

If they really didn't know the meaning of the struggle, where did they come from the tragic rebellion against the Qing Dynasty in the past 40 years?

It's just that they need a reason, a reason to pay for it.

The Ming Dynasty really owes the people too much, and it didn't even tell the people why they should fight!

It didn't even teach the people what a nation is and what a nation is!

Wu Zheng no longer wanted to join Chen Sheng, he felt that no matter what, he had to go to reinforce this spontaneous rebel army.

So he changed his route from the Three Realms and advanced to Shaoxing City in the direction of due north.
