Wei Wuji and Mi Lin did not move outside the city, but intensified the contraction of the encirclement of Hangzhou, and stepped up the suppression of the Qing army in other counties of Hangzhou Province and the remnants of the Ming army rebels who sympathized with the Qing army.

Although Sunit had thousands of cavalry, tens of thousands of green battalion soldiers, and mobilized 2,000 landlords and squires in the city, and 3,000 young and strong people in the city to defend the city, he was at a loss, his cavalry was useless in defending the city, and he did not dare to fight out, because he knew the strength of the Jinhua Righteous Army, and he had been defeated in the hands of the Jinhua Righteous Army several times.

Therefore, he was very annoyed, and the last time he inspected the city wall, he was shot and killed by the arquebus master of the Jinhua Righteous Army, so that he did not even dare to go up the city wall, and was trapped in the city, frowning all day long, losing his temper, and many maids and guards fell into bad luck, and were killed by his cane for no reason, or whipped to death with a leather whip.

At the same time, Tian Bin was feasting several Qing army leaders in the green camp in the city.

Since Tian Bin saved Sunit desperately, Tian Bin was promoted to the chief soldier of the green battalion, which made the other green battalion generals very dissatisfied, either cursing behind their backs, or making bad things behind their backs, and the soldiers in Tian Bin's camp also had a lot of opposition to him.

Several of the main generals in the green camp are the generals and gentry of the Hangzhou Mansion, this is a civil official, a fourth-grade official of the dynasty, and an alternate Taoist of the Hangzhou Mansion, smiling all day long, but scheming and vicious, few people dare to approach him.

Don't be a civilian official who temporarily leads the troops, this Tian Bin doesn't care about him very much, the civil officials can't be compared with these military generals who support the army and respect themselves, if the world is peaceful, maybe Tian Bin is still afraid of him, but now this place is surrounded by the Jinhua Righteous Army, he, a civilian official, is nothing, only the right to command the army in name, but in fact he exercises the right to supervise, and now the general and the capital division, the garrison listens to him, each holding the strength in his hand, waiting for the price to sell.

It is said that this green battalion was established in the first year of Shunzhi, that is, in 1644, but when it was implemented to the south, it was already 1648, and these people here were originally generals under the account of King Lu and Lu Jianguo, or the generals of the Ming army who were loyal to the Hongguang court, after being defeated by the Qing cavalry of Bolobel, surrendered to the Qing army, there were early and late, followed by the Qing army's buttocks all the way to burn and loot, and slaughtered the people without mercy, it can be said that the Qing army ordered, they carried it out specifically, and took the opportunity to rob the property.

Tian Bin was originally such a person, but he surrendered late, and he was not a Ming army, but a general of Dashun, who was the anti-Ming court of Li Zicheng, a peasant rebel, also called Liukou.

After he surrendered, he fought with the Jinhua Righteous Army, was beaten and urinated, fled thousands of miles, lurked for several years in the trench gate occupied by the Portuguese, and only recently returned, and everyone knows what happened in the future, so he has not participated in the massacre and plundering of the people in the south.

He also had no good impression of the officers and soldiers of the Green Battalion, the pioneers and executioners who slaughtered the people in the south, but in order to accomplish his mission, he did not let go of the mustard in his heart and came to deal with them.

The biggest opponents in this are Wu Jing, the general of the Green Battalion garrison battalion, Tang Guoqiang, the governor of Hangzhou Prefecture, Zhang Guoguo, the governor of Jinling Prefecture, and Sun Li, the commander of the Hangzhou Patrol Battalion.

The green battalion is due to the establishment of an official office, the official recruitment, the soldier acts, and the establishment is fixed, but the official can be uncertain, so as long as you have an official body, there are many battalions in the green battalion.

So the green battalion is as much as a cow's hair, especially in the early Qing Dynasty, most of the Ming troops who surrendered were veterans, very slippery, fighting and fighting, then you have to force them to have no choice, they showed their fierce minions, but if you don't force them, they turn around and flee, fighting is a dead man's business, let others do it.

Under the ferocious pressure of the Qing army, the combat effectiveness of the current green battalion is still very powerful, and compared to the Ming army with fallen trees and no fighting spirit, their combat effectiveness is simply against the sky.

In front of such a group of wolves, Tian Bin could only play with his heart and eyes, and he could only envelop them, so he set up a banquet to entertain them.

Everyone unceremoniously ate the big fish and meat for a long time, and Zhang Guoguo, who claimed that he was an officer and soldier of Jinling Mansion, stood up and said staggeringly: "Lord Tian, we know what you mean, and in the future, I will greet me and my sons and daughters under your command, but I will send it," the words sounded good, but he stood up and left, not giving Tian Bin a good face at all.

Tian Bin stood up and said loudly: "Lord Zhang, now that the Jinhua Righteous Army is besieging the city, I am recruiting everyone to consider everyone's future whereabouts, and I am going to discuss it with everyone. ”

Everyone glanced at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Tian Bin's gourd.

Wu Jing, the general of the Hangzhou Prefecture Garrison Battalion of the Green Battalion, who was relatively young, stood up and asked with a smile: "Chief soldier Tian, do you have any good ideas that can let us get out of this Hangzhou Mansion?" ”

Tang Guoqiang, the governor of Hangzhou Prefecture, said to the general of Fubiao: "Yes, Lord Tian has traveled all the way, and how many Jinhua rebels have not left the adults behind, does it matter if the adults are over there, can they let us go?" Tang Guoqiang's words were a bit heart-wrenching, alluding to Tian Bin's collusion with the Ming army and the Jinhua Righteous Army.

That is, he asked his heart for everyone, and left a controversy for Tian Bin, if the Manchu generals of the Qing army knew about it in the future, Tian Bin would be a little hung if he wanted to continue to serve as the chief soldier.

"Hehe, there is no relationship, but I let my subordinates investigate, the city defense of the Jinhua Righteous Army is not without loopholes, their defense of the east of the city is relatively lax, there is an interval of about two hours in the middle, in that interval there are only three or five patrols at the level of troops, everyone knows that now the Jinhua Righteous Army has not been able to attack for a long time, and their main forces have gone to various counties to clear up, so the strength of this siege is definitely not enough." Tian Bin explained to everyone.

"Isn't there still the Ming army of Lu Jianguo? None of them left. Don't scold us, Master Tian, we also have spies outside. Wu Jing said gloomily.

Tian Bin glanced at him with squinted eyes, and said arrogantly: "Can those wastes be on the table?" Even if I am a soldier who has been summoned on the fly, I can fight ten at a time," he said with awe-inspiring righteousness and no mercy.

Most of them here are the generals of the righteous army and the Ming army before King Lu, so I won't show them mercy, and it is also a counterattack and suppression of these people.

Everyone blushed, and some people slapped the table angrily and shouted, but they were quickly suppressed by Tian Bin's personal soldiers who were waiting outside the tent, Tang Guoqiang sat down and said: "Then the chief soldier, you take a charter, we must escape,"

He Shen said: "Yes, yes, I think, it's better to go in batches tonight, and strive to pass the gap within two hours, otherwise let the Ming army entangle, and those Jinhua rebels who went down to the county to encircle and suppress will surround us, and we won't be able to eat and walk around,"

Everyone nodded.

Tian Bin smiled, deal with these green battalion soldiers tonight, and then deal with the Mongols tomorrow.
