The Han army approached the city, and the Qing army in Hubei and Anhui also began to urgently assemble.

There were 300,000 troops in the entire Chu region, including 10,000 Jurchen Tartars and 60,000 Mongol cavalry. There were few Jurchens, and now all localities relied on the Mongols to stabilize the situation. If it weren't for the fact that the Mongol power class was too dispersed, I am afraid that the Mongols would have easily taken the place of the Jurchens.

"Fireworks go down to Yangzhou in March, it's a pity!" The tall Yangzhou city is still strong, but it is a pity that there is no literati boating, and there is no pink boat ditch heart!

"Set up camp! Siege Tomorrow! "If it weren't for the thousands of natural people in the 01st Division, Chen Xiong couldn't help but attack the city immediately.

"It's the lord."

When the Han army returned to Jiangbei, not only the Manchu Qing Dynasty was shaken, but the gentry of Huainan in Chu were also panicked!

The gentry of Jiangsu and Zhejiang can still support their families by sea ship trade, but once the inland gentry lose the right to pay taxes, their huge families will fall apart! The Jiangnan scribes can still join the chariot of the Han army, but their Jiangbei literati are already a few steps behind, which also means that once Yan and Huang unify the world, their gentry will completely decline!

Breaking the family's wealth is more serious than killing relatives, and the gentry and landlords will naturally not sit idly by! However, it is impossible to deal with the Han army with the peasant army alone! Even if there is an army of two million people, they do not have the courage to fight against the Han army!

Yunyang Province in northwestern Hubei Province is a complex terrain of mountains and basins, where there are Han Chinese and tribal people. Yunyang, which borders the four provinces, is not only geographically unique, but also barbaric and fierce in its folk customs.

In the poor mountainous areas, the government had lost control before the Ming Dynasty, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty only superficially occupied it after it went south.

Xunyang has been a place of rebellion since ancient times, and the Xunyang Rebellion a few decades later dealt a heavy blow to the rule of the Manchus. It took several years for hundreds of thousands of troops to completely wipe out Xunyang's rebel army.

The Xunyang Mansion of the Three Regards is the strongest in the White Lotus Sect, and although the White Lotus Sect has no serious skills, it is a very difficult underground organization. Not to mention its ability to brainwash and demagogue, its use of poison and external skills should be first-class in the green forest.

The White Lotus Sect can be said to be unconvinced by no one day in the Southern Song Dynasty or the Ming and Qing dynasties, and all the ruling classes are the targets of their countering.

"Sect Master, this is a big deal of 20 million taels, enough to pull up an army of 100,000!" Deputy Sect Leader Liu Xiang was secretly happy, if he was the sect leader, he would respond on the spot.

Wang Mengcheng was also greatly moved: "Who is the force that contacted you?" ”

"They are all dead soldiers, but I guess they must be from the Jiangbei family, otherwise ordinary people would not be able to detect our whereabouts at all!"

"Well, King Han really deserves to die! What bullshit son of heaven and earth, the reincarnation of the gods, this is simply an evil crooked! "Sect Leader Wang is finally moved, 20 million taels of their entire White Lotus Sect tens of thousands of people, but they can't take out so many silver taels!

"Okay, then arrange a hundred Lux and go to Yangzhou." Liu Xiang was very happy, as soon as this matter was completed, he would have a deposit of one million taels in private, and there would be a bounty of two million after completing the task.

"Slow down: I am sending twenty Arhats, and I will let the Holy Maiden personally lead the team." Sect Leader Wang was still not at ease, and immediately opened his mouth to send more people.

This~ Liu Xiang frowned: "Okay then!" It's time for the saint to see the blood. ”

Although there is a feeling of using a knife to kill chickens, it doesn't matter!

One hundred Lux and twenty Arhats, this is already half of the strongest elite of the White Lotus Sect. Lux: The strength is infinite, each of which is a wrestler who has been piled up with meat since childhood, and the Arhat is soaked and honed with medicinal materials to make copper skin and iron bones.

Equipped with a highly poisonous crossbow, Lux can kill people from a distance of 300 meters as easily as drinking water. Luohan is equipped with mixed steel wire armor and more than a dozen horn knives all over his body, and the whole person is simply an invulnerable hell weapon.

The saint is even more proficient in doctrine, can be literate and martial, and can pretend to be a variety of characters, whether it is a daughter or a wind and dust demon queen, she can play in her true colors.

The sun was already bright in the early summer morning, but the dense Qing soldiers at the head of the city did not have a trace of warmth.

Bell ~ Bell ~~ The gong player is on the field again.

"Traitors, listen well: all 600,000 traitors in Changsha were slaughtered by the Han army in the First World War, but God has the virtue of a good life, and the sins of Emperor Yanhuang Nianer and other sins can still be saved. Once the city is breached, the rebels flee and kill them all. ”

The gong bearer shouted in defiance, but the Qing soldiers had a smile on their faces. Fortunately, they don't belong to the traitors in the order of killing!

"Damn it, shell them out." The commander is furious, let these dogs bark any longer, and the army will collapse! The soldiers can surrender, but they, the traitors, will surely die!

Seeing that the line of fire was ignited, the gong player immediately scolded: "Damn, the sacred cow, let's retreat, go quickly." ”

Well~~

The war ox immediately understood, and the ox cart also departed quickly.

Boom boom~~ Several iron balls also hit in an instant, and as soon as the iron balls smashed into the dust, they immediately rolled up a large area.

"Hehe~ Bullying us didn't have a cannon, right?" Chen Xiong said with a sneer.

The 01st Division did not have shotguns, nor did it have 150 mm field guns, let alone Yanhuang naval guns.

The largest caliber of the 01st Division is 88 mm, and the smallest of the two calibers is only 40 mm caliber.

"Lu Shuai, let's start."

Master Lu Shuai was overjoyed and immediately saluted and shouted, "Respect the order." ”

As soon as the ox cart moved, Lu Shuai stood on the ox cart and soon came to the front of the 01st Division.

There were several forts in Yangzhou, and a few general's guns made it possible for the Han army to line up four kilometers away.

"Master's seat." Pang Yuzu, the former division commander of the Fifth Army of the Han Dynasty, is currently the deputy commander of the 01st Division.

Although he was demoted, he couldn't sleep for two days and two nights when he was excited to join the emperor's pro-army.

The whole division had a musket, and even the artillery had a short musket. The 20,000 people are all Chongzhen nineteen-style firearms, and none of them are old-fashioned firearms.

The density of the guns already excited him, but the small artillery of the 01st Division made him regretful! However, after the powerful artillery showed the power of the small artillery, his smile did not fall for half a month.

"The east gate and the south gate will attack together, Pang Zu, you will lead the first and second battalions to attack the south gate, you must cover the impact of the first army of the Han Dynasty, and you must not let the Qing artillery hurt the lord's personal soldiers." Lu Shuai has always called Pang Zu for the sake of simplicity.

Pang Yuzu was used to it, and he immediately received the order: "Respect Lu Shuai." ”

"Haha, let's go!" Lu Shuai was overjoyed, he liked it most when others called him like this, although the commanders of the Han Fifth and Han Sixth Armies didn't like it very much!

In the 01st Division, the 5,000 artillery units were all earth and stone alloy troops, and the 5,000 artillery units were all assigned to four reinforced battalions.

A battalion had 30 40-caliber guns, 20 60-caliber guns, and a total of 10 mountain guns of 88 mm caliber. Now there are fewer artillery and more people, so many artillery pieces are also firecrackers.

"Charge, clear the big and small artillery at the head of the city for me." It is estimated that after the south gate was ready, Lu Shuai immediately gave the order.

"It's the teacher's seat." The silver cannon commander will not please Lu Shuai, and of course Lu Shuai does not dare to give the silver man a face. The silver people control the military and political affairs of the empire, and no one dares to despise this group of monsters.

"War Bull Departure~"

Well~~ The wooden ox screamed, and sixty ox carts immediately rushed to the city gate.

There were three artillery pieces in the ox cart, one for the ox, one for the main gunner and one for the deputy gunner!

Boom~ Sixty ox carts ran fast like war horses, and the dust also rolled up all the way.
