In Wan'an County, Ji'an Prefecture, Jiangxi, more than 6,000 people of the Third Division of the People's Army have surrounded it and are about to start attacking the city.

This more than 1,000 Ming army is mainly divided into three parts, one part is the original county defenders, one part is the young and strong recruited by the county order, and the remaining part is the rout of Li Chengliang's army who fled to Wan'an County.

The county commander Xiao Lun was loyal to the Ming court, and he was not bad to the people on weekdays, so he was able to gather such a Ming army to guard Wan'an County.

Liu Hong, the commander of the Third Division of the People's Army, has sent someone to send a letter of persuasion to Xiao Lun, and was directly killed by Xiao Lun to sacrifice the flag, fortunately, Liu Hong sent a person to send a letter of persuasion to surrender The Ming army was captured, and he died when he died.

The city gate is not blocked, which saves the People's Army a lot of trouble, once the city gate is blocked, the People's Army can only blow up the city wall or climb the city wall, for which the People's Army will have to kill and wound many soldiers.

For this war, the People's Army has prepared siege vehicles in advance, which are directly disassembled into parts for easy transportation, but no matter how convenient it is, the troops transporting the parts of the siege vehicles will be slower than the combat troops.

Seeing that the Ming army in Wan'an County refused to surrender, Liu Hong directly ordered an attack on Wan'an County from the south, and the heavy artillery regiment first fired a few rounds of salvos at the city wall, and then the infantry with the first soldiers, grenadiers, and musketeers rushed towards the city.

Some of the musketeers ran forward for more than 100 meters and stopped, they held muskets loaded with ammunition and aimed at the city wall, as soon as the Ming army emerged from the city wall, the musketeers would immediately open fire and shoot them, if the Ming army was allowed to throw heavy objects under the city, the KPA soldiers who had already rushed to the city would not necessarily be stoned to death or seriously injured.

The city gate area in the south of Wan'an County is the key offensive area of the People's Army, and it is also the key defense area of the Ming Army, the soldiers of the People's Army have rushed to the city, and the Ming Army on the city wall is ready to throw the rolling wood and stones out under the command of the county commander Xiao Lun, but as soon as they show their bodies, they meet wave after wave of lead bullets.

Waves of lead bullets attacked, and dozens or hundreds of Ming sergeants were shot, so that the Ming sergeants did not dare to rise again.

Taking advantage of the gap, the pioneer soldier with the explosive bag rushed directly over, put the explosive bag at the city gate, lit the fuse, and ran.

Rumble!

Nearly ten seconds later, with a loud bang, the south gate of Wan'an County was directly blown down, and the soldiers of the People's Army poured into Wan'an County through the blown up city gate, with the soldiers in front and the grenadiers behind, and the grenades had been taken out and ready to be lit and thrown at any time.

The city gate was easily blown up by the People's Army in this way, Xiao Lun already knew in his heart that Wan'an County would not be able to hold it, in fact, before the outbreak of this battle, Xiao Lun knew that he would definitely lose this battle, but Xiao Lun wanted to stick to Wan'an County, buy a little more time for the Ming Court, reorganize the army to resist and even defeat the People's Army.

Now that the People's Army has rushed into the city, and Wan'an County will soon fall, Xiao Lun looked at the surrounding Ming soldiers and soldiers, and couldn't bear to let them go with him to die.

"You have wives and children, stay here, and prepare to surrender the People's Army."

Xiao Lun, who had a sad face, said a word, and then pulled out a Yanling knife and walked towards the city wall step by step, even if he Xiao Lun was just a civil official, he would fall on the way to kill the enemy.

"My lord, I'm with you!"

"Me too."

Xiao Lun's Huangquan Road was not alone, and dozens of Ming soldiers followed Xiao Lun and rushed towards the People's Army.

A county town held by Ming court officials was so easily captured by the people's army, Li Chengliang's army had been completely defeated, and it was impossible to gather resistance forces at all.

After the officials and Ming troops in other cities knew that Li Chengliang's army was defeated, they almost immediately packed up their gold and silver and fled north with their families, and if they didn't flee, they would die when the people's army came, and there were only a few hundred defenders in a county town, and only two or three thousand defenders in a prefecture, how to resist the people's army that defeated Li Chengliang's 500,000 Ming troops.

There are too few loyal officials like Xiao Lun in the Ming court, and most of the officials are full of promotions and fortunes, glorifying their ancestors, and staying is death, and they don't want to die like this.

The Ming court officials and defenders fled, allowing the People's Army to attack the city much faster, and Liu Hong's Third Division, after capturing Wan'an County, left 1,000 men, and continued to march north with most of the Third Division.

The remaining 1,000 people will first take control of Wan'an County, and then send people outside the city to reassure the people, suppress bandits, and confiscate landlords, and the officials who will go to Wan'an County to establish a people's army government will soon arrive.

The People's Army is attacking the city in the south of Jiangxi, and the news of the defeat of Li Chengliang's army has already reached Nanchang City, and the entire Nanchang City has been in chaos, and the gentry and merchants who are still in Nanchang City are going to leave the city and flee north, and the officials in Nanchang City are all frightened and pale, they are Ming Court officials, and they should stay in Nanchang City to resist the People's Army, but now they are all thinking about escaping.

Even Li Chengliang's army was defeated, no matter how strong and tall the walls of Nanchang City were, they couldn't stop the People's Army that defeated Li Chengliang's army, and staying in Nanchang City was death.

But if the People's Army did not call them, they fled, and when the time came, the court would definitely ask for the guilt, and it would be a dead end.

Officials in Nanchang no longer know what to do.

"Or do we vote for the People's Army?"

There is an idea that has never been in the mind of an official, but it has become a very good idea in the current situation, Li Chengliang's 500,000 Ming army has been defeated, how can the Ming court resist the people's army, the Ming Dynasty is afraid that it will change hands, continue to be an official of the Ming court, and sooner or later one day will die.

Since the People's Army wants to win the world, it has become a very good choice to join the People's Army, and if the People's Army wants to govern the world, it will definitely need a large number of officials, and this is their opportunity.

Obviously, the Ming court officials in Nanchang City did not know the regulations of the People's Army, and in the past, there were Ming court officials who defected to the People's Army, but none of them were accepted by the People's Army.

Most of the officials wanted to escape, but there were also officials loyal to the Ming court who wanted to defend the city of Nanchang, but the Ming army defending the city was a problem.

Li Chengliang's army fought with the People's Army, resulting in the number of defenders of Nanchang City being less than 5,000 people, and the defenders could not hold Nanchang City.

Some officials set their sights on the rout of Li Chengliang's army, most of the rout troops are going north, and they have not yet arrived in Nanchang Mansion, so they can send people to collect the rout as soon as possible, even if the rout has no morale, but as long as tens of thousands of rout troops are gathered, the certainty of holding Nanchang City can also increase a few points.
