Wuchang and Hanyang look across the river, the water in it is crisscrossed, the rivers are staggered, and it looks like it has been cut into pieces of land by the water flow from a distance.

On the south bank of the Yangtze River, there are two large cities of Jiangxia and Wuchang, which are now occupied by the Tong Dynasty, and there are less than 8,000 people in the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty under him. Looking at the Ming army covering the sky, I couldn't help but sweat in my heart.

Since his grandfather surrendered to Nurhachi, there have been few defeats in large and small battles, and the Tong family has not been absent. After Wu Sangui switched, they fought all the way from Liaodong to Jiangnan, and all the Tong families were complacent about their grandfather's foresight.

Prince Yu's army captured Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the imperial court in Beijing celebrated the crown, and all the Manchus thought that the world was within reach. Dolgon and others even ordered the Manchurian warriors to return to the north to escape the summer. But from Suzhou onwards, things gradually became cloudy. Suzhou folded Bolobel, Hangzhou died a solid mountain Ezhen Ji Xiha, Changzhou was even more amazing, Prince Yu was captured alive, and tens of thousands of banner soldiers turned into ashes.

The one who caused all this was a Han man named Hou Xuanyan, and now he was preparing to fight with him in this land far from his hometown.

The body of the Tong Dynasty is burly, the skeleton is huge, and the ape's back and bear waist are not like those of the Han people. But what flows in his bones is not the ferocious and ruthless blood of Jiannu Tartars. Years of intermarriage have turned their family into a nondescript hybrid. He has a foreign body, but he also has a cunning and greedy character, seeking good fortune and avoiding trouble.

For the next bloody battle, Tong Dai didn't want to verify whether Hou Xuanyan was the disaster star of the Qing army. He was well prepared, reinforcements were on the way, and if he couldn't win, he had designed a route to escape.

The Northern Expeditionary Army under the city is getting closer and closer, and as Zhang Huangyan said, the periphery of Wuchang is indeed vulnerable. Those wall grasses are fair to every party, they never work hard for others, and they have long since returned to Wuchang.

The red red flag represents the reborn army in the city of Changzhou, covering the sky and the sun, and the banner of the 100,000-strong army dyed the city of Wuchang into a sea of blood.

Li Haoxian rode on a horse, full of spirit, and 100,000 soldiers and horses were like an arm, which made him feel like he was in the clouds. Once the eldest husband has this kind of power, the feeling of destroying the bones and destroying the soul is difficult to give up.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty under Tong Dai were as brave as the Manchurians, and they were not afraid in the face of an enemy ten times their size. Most of the books, films and television of later generations exaggerated the achievements of the Manchurians, making everyone think how brave the Manchurians were. There are also people who chant every day, "The Jurchen is not satisfied with 10,000, and the 10,000 are invincible." In fact, these have nothing to do with Manchurian Jiannu, and the Jurchens in the era of Wanyan Aguta and the Manchurians in the late Ming Dynasty have not much to do with it. Strictly speaking, they are two races.

Even the Jurchens, who were invincible at that time and created the shame of Jingkang, were not almost wiped out by the Mongols. And now, the Mongols have long since lost their king, prostrate at the feet of the Manchus, like a not very docile dog. The strength of an army has never been determined by race, with the exception of Koreans, of course...

The Manchu Qing Dynasty relied on the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, at least most of the credit was due to the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.

Li Haoxian waved his hand, the military flag of the Flame Camp waved, and the desolate horn suddenly sounded. The Qing soldiers on the city tower and the fire battalion sergeants under the city were ignited with blood at the same time. In front of Wusheng's gate, the fog was thick, and the fire camp launched a fierce attack with the help of the fog.

The defenders of the city relied on the rolling stones of the wood to resist the waves of attacks with difficulty. Wuchang's garrison was lax, and there were not many equipment to defend the city, and what Tong Dai was thinking about on the city tower was all about how long to defend and escape, and the crime was not a big problem.

At the same time, a group of people and horses took advantage of the fog, carried a long pole in their hands, and held a straw man, and came to the Wenchang Gate of Wuchang City. Wenchang Gate faces the river, the soil is soft, these soldiers do not hit the city gate, do not climb the ladder, and hold shovels to dig tunnels under the city. Soon, three large holes were digging tunnels from outside the city to the bottom of the city walls, and the sound of digging tunnels could be heard clearly inside the city. The earth-shattering offensive of Wushengmen attracted the vast majority of the defenders, and the defenders of Wenchangmen were simply unable to deal with the digging team under the city.

The defenders of Wenchangmen hurriedly reported that Tong Dai knew, but he only had 8,000 men and horses, so how could he dare to go out of the city to search. Tong Dai stubbornly said: "Go back to the city tower, don't confuse the army." ”

Zhang Huangyan looked at the city, a smile appeared on his face, and ordered: "Pass the order, wrap gunpowder in cotton wool and place it in the tunnel under the city wall, and then use a hollow long bamboo pole to pull out the fuse, and prepare to blast the city wall." ”

Before the dawn of the morning fog dissipated, a loud noise came from Wenchang Gate, and the tunnel explosives ignited and exploded, and the city wall collapsed more than 20 zhang.

When Li Haoxian heard the explosion, he laughed loudly: "The army is transferred to Wenchang Gate, kill me in!" ”

Tong Dai's face in the city was as gray as ashes, knowing that it would be difficult to be good today, he gritted his teeth and said, "Open the city gate and fight out!" ”

The defenders on the city tower have also been killed, and when they heard the rumors, they all held weapons and rushed to the city.

Tong Dai's eyes flickered, there were battles at the east gate and the north gate, he turned around and left, preparing to slip away from the west gate. After crossing the river, Hankou is Hankou, and with the energy of the Tong family, it is enough to protect him.

In front of the Wusheng Gate, the only remaining 5,000 Han and Eight Banners opened the city gate and rushed into the 100,000 Flame Camp. They howled and regarded death as home, but it was a pity that the body of the Han family descended from their ancestors, wrapped in blood, was actually a loyal dog for the alien race. Li Haoxian didn't go to Wenchang Gate anymore, and waved his army to meet this group of madmen who were sent to death.

The funny thing is that what they got in exchange for the death was only a moment when the coach slipped away. Tong Dai was escorted by his own soldiers to escape from the West Gate, only hating his father and mother for having two legs missing, and fled towards the river.

Suddenly, the fog lifted, and a black-pressed cavalry appeared in front of him. These people are dressed in black armor, with helmets and masks, and they are murderous. At the beginning, a Si Ming flag, the ancient seal "wind" word was written. The knife in Tong Dai's hand fell to the ground with a bang. When the soldiers behind him saw it, they reluctantly lowered their heads. Even if these dozens of them are all reincarnated by Zhao Zilong, they can't protect their master Tong Dai today.

The soldiers of the Fengzi battalion immediately stepped forward to capture them, and Xia Wanchun said in a loud voice: "Commander, it seems that we are late, General Li has already broken through Wuchang." ”

A lazy voice came: "Kill people first, kill all the people and then take the land, and Wuchang Mansion without the enemy can be wiped out in one day." ”
