Chapter 57 What a capable person can't do, and what an adult can't do

"Seal the opening, seal it!"

In Niuzhuang City, there is a hot atmosphere. A group of men was emerging from the tunnel, and a junior officer was screaming outside the hole.

Zheng Zhilong stood on the city wall, quietly watching this scene, such a hole and sealed soil, there is not only one place in Niuzhuang City.

Others are leaving.

It's the end of July, and after the autumn rains, the weather is noticeably cooler. Zheng Zhilong had already put on his cloak, and it was indeed time for him to lead the naval army back to Juehua Island.

If you don't leave, the excuses are almost gone.

- He is withdrawing the army now, it can also be said that in order to relieve Hong Chengchou's department, he transferred too many soldiers and horses, the Qing army saw the opportunity, and attacked fiercely for days, although it wanted to stick to Niuzhuang City in winter, but the city defense had been seriously damaged during this period of time, and had to abandon it.

But before leaving, he had to use gunpowder to blow up the cow farm.

Blowing up a city with gunpowder is not uncommon, and it is definitely not the first invention of the Tianping Army. In the Battle of Kaifeng, which had ended, Li Zicheng had thought of this trick early on.

However, Li Chuangwang did not have professional talents in his hands, and he did not know how to fill the pit after digging a pit to fill the powder, and as a result, the shock wave after the explosion of the powder rushed out of the tunnel, not only failed to blow up the Kaifeng city wall, but made the peasant army itself full of bags.

But when it comes to King Hong, look at the professionals in the Taiping Army-the miners in the land of Xianggui, absolute blasting experts. The coffin is filled with powder at home, and then the pit is backfilled and compacted, and then the fire is ignited, isn't it just "overturning the giant city, like uncovering a piece of paper"?

Zheng Zhilong is going to overturn the entire Niu Zhuang now, so that he can come again next year after the weather is warm and the ice disappears.

No matter how much the Tartars spared no matter how much effort they spared, it was impossible to repair the cattle farm in a few months, and it was even impossible to break ground in winter.

Wait until a long winter has passed, when the ice and snow have melted, and then you want to start work, at that time, Zheng Jun's sailors have already been killed. The Tartars could not completely stop the wide surface of the Liao River.

If the Tartars were really stupid enough to build a wooden embankment on the Liao River, deploy artillery, wooden fire, and other means to prevent the invasion of Zheng Jun's sailors, then Zheng Zhilong would laugh out loud when he slept at night.

Ready-made targets!

The time entered August, and the entire Niuzhuang City had been properly arranged, and some ships had withdrawn to Juehua Island first.

Nikan outside the city looked at Niuzhuang and had a faint feeling in his heart - Zheng Zhilong would not stick to the city for the winter. There is no solid reason for this, it is pure speculation.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to wave his army to Niuzhuang at this time.

The matter of Duoduo has not yet been completely finished, and Nikan is unwilling to ask for hardship.

As the son of Chu Ying, the political struggle of the Manchu Qing high-level is not compatible with Nikan, even though Nikan is more sympathetic to Dolgon's brother in his heart. In the three Dolgon brothers, he saw the shadow of his father.

Don't look at the old slave who poured a lot of dirty water on Chu Ying after killing his eldest son, but how many years have passed since Chu Ying's death? Nikan was still young at the time, but his eldest brother Du Du was not young.

In just a few years, the old slave killed his brother, killed his parents and children, killed each other, and did such a thing that violated common sense, why? What adult doesn't know that?

When Chu Ying died, the old slave was already fifty-seven, and the eldest son, who had a high military achievement, was already thirty-six years old. He is young and strong, and his prestige is high. The old slave still has unfulfilled ambitions and is never willing to give up his rights. In this way, if Chu Ying does not die, who will die?

At present, Huang Taiji focuses on Duoduo, and then coerces the three Dolgon brothers, isn't it also for the purpose of centralizing power?

But Nikan, who is particularly informed, will not interject a word about the battles that have started in Shengjing City.

The time came to the third day of the eighth month, the defenders in Niuzhuang City suddenly moved unabashedly, one by one the warships sailed into the river bank from the center of the Liao River, there were the bold eight banner sentry horses, beating horses and rushing to the Liao River, and at a glance to the north, you can clearly see that a large number of Zheng troops are unabashedly transporting all kinds of baggage such as grain, grass, and military supplies onto the ship.

The news reached Haizhou, and Nikan hurriedly led his troops and horses to Niuzhuang. Otherwise, the team of men and horses left in front of Niuzhuang by relying only on the Qing army would have no deterrent effect on Niuzhuang at all.

In fact, it was also the case, when Nikan arrived with the troops, the Qing soldiers were still in the camp, and Arking, and they didn't let out a single fart.

"Father, the main force of the Tartars ......," Zheng Sen shouted, pointing to the Eight Banners rolling to the east.

Zheng Zhilong licked his lips, it was naturally necessary to explode the Niuzhuang before leaving, but if it was to pit the tartar again, the taste would be even more beautiful.

"Fusong, do you think the tartars will be on the set?" Zheng Zhilong held a telescope in his hand, and he didn't need to use it at all, and he could see the Qing army galloping from the east with the naked eye.

"It's not a good thing to be a tartar, right?" Zheng Sen felt that it was impossible for the Qing army not to be trapped. How long have the two armies been facing each other? The main general of the Tartars on the opposite side is probably chasing his dreams and wants to take the Niuzhuang.

"Then let's go." The horizontal and vertical preparations have been made, and Zheng Zhilong is a pity that he can't get the head.

The last Zheng troops in the city also disappeared. All that was left was a few flags at the battlements, and the swarthy cannons.

The cannon is very realistic, but it is actually a wooden tube that is black, why is Zheng Zhilong reluctant?

Nikan waved his hand, and a group of clothed Aha were forced to run towards Niuzhuang City by their Eight Banner Masters with bows and knives. Thirty or fifty people wept and mourned and 'attacked' Niuzhuang City.

"Such a vicious Tartar, he doesn't treat my Han as a human being." Zheng Sen, who had already boarded the boat, scolded angrily after hearing the report.

Zheng Zhilong was expressionless.

Is this kind of thing less? Or, during the eight-year Anti-Japanese War in the previous life, the ghost soldiers who also didn't treat the puppet army as human beings used guns to force the two dogs to go to the mines, is it difficult to see in film and television dramas and novels?

Therefore, Zheng Zhilong made the water ghost lurk on the shore of Niuzhuang this time. It seems that everyone has left, and it is just a 'seeming'!

When the Qing army got the report that the Ming army had completely left Niuzhuang, both Nikan and Arking were full of surprise. Anyway, the cattle farm is back in their hands.

As soon as Nikan gave an order, Arjing Axian led hundreds of Eight Banner vests to rush into the Niuzhuang.

One ship after another sailed away from the east coast, but many people were still standing on the side of the deck, and the city had been busy for so many days, how could they not know what Zheng Zhilong had buried underneath?

I'm waiting to see that last moment coming. Whether it can be as good as you want will be known in the next moment.

But when the explosion did come, many people were speechless. Their level of education is too low to find the right and exact words to describe what they see.

It was too terrifying and shocking for them to accept, and it completely turned their worldview upside down. So much so that everyone was stupid.

Zheng Sen's eyes burst with scorching sparks, "Overturning the giant city is like uncovering a piece of paper; overturning the giant city, like uncovering a piece of paper...... "My father is really capable of what people can't do, and adults can't do it."

With this trick, wouldn't it be easy to attack the city in the future?

As for the tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder consumed in the war, Zheng Dagongzi didn't pay attention to it.
