Lion Rock Reading River Building, the river breeze slowly passes, at this time in the past for the Jiangnan literati to look at the Yangtze River, I don't know how many articles and poems left on the Yuejiang Building, Zheng Chenggong stood in the building, his brows tightened, this is not the first time he came here, when he was still a teenager, he had studied in Nanjing's Guozijian, at that time worship in Jiangsu and Zhejiang famous Confucian Qian Qianyi door. And Qian Qianyi, who was the leader of the Donglin Party at that time, gave him the alias "big wood" in order to encourage Zheng Chenggong. At that time, he came from a remote place in Fujian, and he was almost lost in the prosperity of Nanjing and the gentle countryside on the banks of the Qinhuai River.

That is, in that year, the thieves invaded the capital, the martyrdom of the emperor, and then the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the land of China, fell into a bloody place, and hundreds of millions of Li people were slaughtered, that is, the thunder woke others up from the gentle township, and those in the Guozi Prison were either thrown into the beam or thrown into the river to martyrdom, or shaved their hair to surrender to the enemy's teachers and friends, he returned to Fujian and chose to resist the Qing Dynasty.

In the past ten years, even if his father and brother surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he did not change his original intention of resisting the Qing Dynasty, and in the past ten years, although he has experienced repeated setbacks, he has never dared to forget the original intention of resisting the Qing Dynasty one day.

National hatred, family hatred!

It's all today......

Thinking of this, Zheng Chenggong looked at the towering city wall of Nanjing, fifteen years ago, when he first came to Nanjing, he was amazed by the city wall of Nanjing, the outer city wall of Nanjing is an earthen city, although it is an earth city, it is also a high city wall, and the inner wall is built of bricks and stones.

This Nanjing city wall...... It's too easy to defend and hard to attack!

“…… The Nanjing city wall was twenty-six years earlier, during which a total of 280,000 migrant workers were mobilized in 1 department, 3 guards, 5 provinces, 28 prefectures, and 152 prefectures and counties, which lasted for 27 years, and finally completed the pattern of the four city walls of Jingshi Ying Tianfu...... The construction of the city wall of Nanjing changed the old system of taking square or rectangular city walls in the past, and built the city according to the direction of Nanjing's mountains and water systems on the basis of the construction of Kangcheng in the Six Dynasties. The benefits of mountains and rivers, the momentum of empty rivers and lakes, and the Qinhuai River in the south is a natural moat; There is Zhongshan Mountain in the east; There is a back lake as a barrier in the north; The Hills of Sina enter the city; Form a three-dimensional military fortress with unique defensive characteristics. Among them, the city wall of the capital winds for 70 miles, and the outer city wall outside the capital is more than 120 miles......"

Wang Zhongxiao looked at the towering city wall like a sleeping dragon, and couldn't help but sigh at its steepness, this is the city wall built by Hong Wuye! Just by facing this wall, he felt that it was almost impossible to capture such a steep wall.

Among Zheng Jun, there are only a few people such as Wang Zhongxiao who are reused by literati, and his words only made Gan Hui, Ma Jin and others look at the Nanjing city wall in shock, and most of their expressions are a little complicated.

Compared with land warfare, they are better at water warfare, although there are thousands of enemies annihilated in Yinshan and tens of thousands of enemies captured, and the annihilation is still known as the "invincible" Eight Banners soldiers. But even so, for them, in the face of the city wall of Nanjing, everyone's mood has become complicated.

The walls are too long and too high......

"120 miles of city wall, it is not easy to enclose this Nanjing city!"

The 120-mile city wall, there are dozens of city gates alone, with more than 100,000 soldiers, let alone besieging the city, just want to block the city gate, it's like sprinkling sesame seeds, don't want to block the city gate at all.

I'm afraid that without hundreds of thousands of troops, this Nanjing city will not be surrounded!

I admired Hong Wuye's vision of repairing Nanjing City in my heart, and couldn't help but complain again, you say...... Why do you have to build the walls so high and so long? Although he complained so much in his heart, Zheng Chenggong still noticed the complexity in the expressions of the generals around him after hearing the 120-mile city wall, and he immediately cheered for everyone.

"Even if you have 120 miles of walls, what can you do? What's more, now the Qing captives have abandoned the outer city and defended the inner city for 70 miles......"

Looking at the dozen henchmen in front of him, Zheng Chenggong said in a low voice.

"In this matter, I just want to tell you that Ma Jinbao of Songjiang has promised to act as the internal response of our army!"

"Ahh Admiral Matsue! ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, although they knew that many Qing generals were watching in the Northern Expedition, such as Ma Jinbao was one of them, but most of them were waiting and watching, and now Ma Jinbao actually wanted to do it as an internal response!

"That Lang Tingzuo has sent people to mobilize Qing troops everywhere many times to garrison Nanjing, but he doesn't know at all that Ma Jinbao has already contacted our army, once Ma Jinbao's reinforcements arrive in Nanjing, he will not only enter the city, but then serve as our army's internal response, even if this Qing captive has a hundred miles of city walls, what is the trouble!"

In fact, long before the Northern Expedition, Zheng Chenggong had already been in contact with Ma Jinbao, if not, how could there be Ma Jinbao's support for the army to wait and see, half a month ago, he received a secret letter sent by the teacher Qian Qianyi, it turned out that Qian Qianyi had personally lobbied Ma Jinbao, so that he promised to be the internal response of the army, to assist the army to attack the city, with Ma Jinbao's tens of thousands of troops in the city as an internal response, and why worry about this Nanjing is gone, and even because of this, he will appear so confident, Qian Qianyi's letter is the foundation of his self-confidence.

"Ahh It turns out that the general has already become a belly......"

"I see, no wonder the general is not worried about the ...... of this city wall at all"

In the sound of the generals' sycophants, Zheng Chenggong just looked at Nanjing City with full ambition, and at this time he only felt that he seemed to have taken the vice capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Compared with the relaxation of the generals when they heard that the general had already responded internally, Wang Zhongxiao's expression was a little dignified, but he didn't say anything until after the generals left, he said to Zheng Chenggong.

"General, Ma Jinbao is very easy to repeat. When he was the deputy general of Anqing in our dynasty, when he heard that the Qing army was moving south, he immediately surrendered to the Qing army, and this person can never be trusted! ”

"This may be the view outside, but this person is really credible, since he could have surrendered back then, he can surrender to me today, and besides, there is someone who guarantees him, and this person is reprimanded by Qingyu, it can be believed!"

"Oh, really?"

Wang Zhongxiao thought that his responsibility was to remind Zheng Chenggong, and just when he wanted to remind him again, he only heard Zheng Chenggong laugh and say.

"Alright, there's no need to discuss this matter anymore!"

Zheng Chenggong said with a smile, he may now think that it is the time to be in high spirits, and the nearby five prefectures and twenty-four counties in three states have been surrendered one after another, how can he not be full of hope for the future. Looking at the city of Nanjing, he seemed to see the moment when the world was restored.

"Changru, if this Northern Expedition is successful, I dare to say that in less than five years, this Central Plains will be surnamed Zhu again!"

Again, Zheng Chenggong mentioned the poem he had made again.

"Su Linjiang swore to destroy Hu, and the male master swallowed Wu with 100,000 anger. Try to see the moat throwing the whip crossing, don't believe that the Central Plains is not surnamed Zhu! ”

As long as Nanjing is re-conquered, who in this world dares not to believe that the world is not surnamed Zhu?
