In the early years, Zuo Liangyu led his troops to rebel eastward, He Tengjiao was coerced by the army, and he escaped from the rebels at the risk of his life, and ran all the way to Changsha to clean up his subordinates to reorganize Huguang, and he still had some blood in his heart.

At present, since he must personally sit in Wuchang, He Tengjiao still showed his enthusiasm, because the city is not guaranteed, not only will his family be finished, the He family will be cut off, and the situation of resistance to the Qing Dynasty will also collapse.

At the beginning, Plug Yinxi led the remnants of more than 200,000 Shun troops to besiege Jingzhou, and he was about to break the city, but because he led a group of people and horses to easily abandon Yuezhou, not only did not attack Wuchang as agreed, but let Luck Dehun easily copy the back road of Block Yinxi, so that more than 200,000 Shun troops were defeated extremely miserable, and finally Wang Yan entered Chu to turn the tide.

Although his military talents are a mess and his command is purely chaotic, as the number one in command in Huguang, as long as he shows his face, he can boost morale.

At this time, the Qing army came to the city, 100,000 troops, hundreds of thousands of people, camped under the city, the camp tent stretched to the sky, like a big white bun just out of the cage, filled the Jianghan Plain, magnificent.

If you have seen the surging tide of the Qiantang River, you can barely describe the prosperity of the Qing army, the soldiers at the head of the city, as far as the eye can see, the whole fucking head is crowding, just like the mosquitoes in the stinky ditch on a summer night.

In this crowded camp, there are nearly a thousand ladders of equipment, goose carts, and rushing carts that stand like hills.

This is the result of the flood thief in the past year, when He Tengjiao strengthened the defense of Huguang, Hong Chengchou, who was in the south of the Yangtze River, did not rest, in addition to building large ships and seizing control of the Yangtze River, it was to build equipment and prepare to counterattack Huguang.

Among these instruments, the battering ram was particularly hideous, the huge log was hung on the frame by iron chains, I am afraid that it would take nearly a hundred people to push, and once he approached the city gate, the log that one person could not hold hit the door, and I did not know how many times the city gate could withstand it.

Compared with the equipment, the defenders were most worried about the red-coated cannons covered by artillery jackets, which were smashed with iron bullets, and the bricks and stones were splashed, and they were damaged after a while on the strong city walls.

As far as the posture of the Qing army is concerned, the timid people must be so frightened that their legs tremble when they see it.

He Tengjiao was also afraid in his heart, but he had seen the world to some extent, and when he and Wang Yan joined forces to besiege Wuchang last year, it was also this picture.

It is also a coincidence that Tong Yanghe and Tulai in Wuchang City were besieged by them at the beginning, but now they are just the opposite.

At this time, he remembered the fate of a group of Qing court officials after the destruction of Wuchang City, and he couldn't help but tremble, but he was afraid that since he was sent to the cusp, he still wore a striking gold lacquer mountain pattern armor, with a red feather phoenix wing helmet, and a crimson cloak behind him, and came to the city to inspect.

At that moment, He Tengjiao led a group of generals to walk across the city wall, dressed so coquettishly, the soldiers could see it, they stopped their work one after another, saluted respectfully, and called out in their mouths, "Supervisor!" ”

Since the Chongzhen period, although Wuchang City has been destroyed many times, Hongguangnian Zuo Liangyu destroyed the city to the east of the rebellion, after the Qing soldiers occupied Wuchang, the repair has not been completed, the Ming army killed it, the city was destroyed in the war, but the big city is the big city, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, after He Tengjiao's year's strategy, reinforcement and repair, the tall and strong city wall is naturally needless to say, such as the watchtower, the enemy tower, the arrow tower, the female wall, the horse face These do not need to be mentioned, each city gate has repaired the urn city, He Tengjiao looked around, or barely found a trace of confidence.

In addition, the moat of Wuchang leads the water of the Yangtze River, which is quite wide, and the Qing army wants to seize the city, and the first thing to solve is how to cross the moat.

Since ancient times, water and fire are the most ruthless, if the Qing soldiers build a bridge to impact, then once they are shot down, fall into the water, will be a dog planing is good, if it is not watery, then it can only feed the fish, but with the virtue of the Qing soldiers, it will definitely drive the people to fill the river, otherwise so many equipment, how to send it to the city.

Just when He Tengjiao was patrolling the city, Duoduo, who had returned to the camp, had already taken the drawings presented by Fu Shangrui and studied them with many generals.

To tell the truth, after the Qing soldiers entered the customs, the luck was indeed very good, in a stone to fight a field battle that the Qing soldiers were good at, and then Li Zicheng abandoned the city and fled, such a strong city as Beijing, without a soldier to occupy, after which all the way to pursue, Xi'an, Tongguan, Xiangyang such a strong city, Li Zicheng took the initiative to give up.

When the Qing soldiers went south, it was the same, except for Wang Yan who guarded Yangzhou, all the way to the wind fell, and the city of Nanjing also fell into the hands of the Qing soldiers in a daze.

The most fierce battle in Ganzhou, but also Jin Shengheng's green battalion, the Qing soldiers did not have much experience in attacking Jiancheng, especially thinking about a big city like Nanjing, basically never fought one, although Duoduo got the city defense blueprints, but to fight a city like Wuchang, it is still extremely challenging.

Duoduo and the generals looked at the drawings, couldn't help but gasp, just walked around the city, I felt that Wuchang is not small, now look at the annotations on the drawings, it is really fucking big enough, the circumference of the four city walls is more than 20 miles, three feet high, two feet wide, although it is not as good as the outer Guocheng of Nanjing, which is known as a hundred miles, but it is about to be side by side with the inner city.

No wonder before leaving, Hong Chengchou must let him bring enough siege equipment, even if he walks slowly, he must bring the red-clothed cannon.

Duoduo and a group of Qing generals finished reading the drawings and let everyone express their opinions, and Tong Tulai of Gushan in Hanlan Banner poured a basin of cold water on him, "Lord Wang, this Wuchang is so tall, and it is estimated that there will be no shortage of equipment in the city, I am afraid it will be difficult to fight." ”

The Tong family has almost become a family with Manhua and Aixin Jueluo, so Tong Tulai dares to express his opinion in front of Duoduo.

Duoduo listened, and saw that the generals in the account all leaked out of approval, and felt that it was necessary to cheer up these people, "Tong Gushan is too worried, there is no need to grow the enemy's majesty, this king drives 100,000 people, Wuchang is an iron wall, and the warriors of the Qing Dynasty can also step on it!" Moreover, this Wuchang is big enough, but the Ming army also has to defend the city wall more than 20 miles long, and the pressure on such a long defensive area must be huge. ”

Everyone listened to the reassurance pill that Duoduo sent reluctantly, but Duoduo himself knew that this Wuchang was indeed not easy to fight, the Han people said in the art of war, ten are to besiege it, five are to attack it, and multiple times it is to fight, according to Fu Shangrui's intelligence, his current strength is about twice that of the Ming army, and the siege and assault forces are a little insufficient, so how to break the city?

"Governor Fu, how did Wang Yan break Wuchang last year?" Duoduo asked suddenly.

Fu Shangrui listened, saw that there was an opportunity to perform, and his eyes turned to think about it, but he was in Yuezhou at the time, and he had not experienced the war, and only knew a rough idea, "Back to the prince, Wang Wei filled the river and built a platform at that time, set up artillery to bombard the city, and finally the traitors in the city took the internal response to break through Wuchang." ”

Duoduo frowned slightly when he heard this, seeing that a city like Wuchang wanted to break through from the front, it was indeed not easy, he turned around, stared at the generals in the tent, and said loudly: "The battle of Wuchang, there are only two possibilities. Either the Qing army will break the city! Either the defenders surrender! Wuchang must be taken anyway, there is no third option. Starting from tomorrow, the river will be filled in first, the platform will be built, and after the fortifications are completed, the whole army will storm fiercely, and the defenders must be discouraged and surrender the city. ”
