At this moment, the northeast corner turned out to be quite strange, first there were bursts of shouts, and then there were bursts of explosions. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Looking at the smoke rising in the distance, Zhang Nengqi was quite surprised, of course the siege is to seize the city gate, and there is no city gate in the northeast corner, how can the loyal army spare no effort in the northeast corner?

The battle for the north gate has entered the white heat, Zhang Nengqi is powerless, in addition to sending two messengers to the northeast corner, he still focuses on the north gate.

After a long time of incense, soldiers stumbled and ran, claiming that the loyal army had now occupied the northeast corner and was now killing them in a steady stream.

It turned out that while shelling the northeast city wall, with the help of smoke and woods, Yang Bingyi commanded everyone to push more than ten siege towers to approach the northeast corner.

The soldiers on the city wall were shocked, and one by one they desperately ran to the side of the battlement, ready to fire back with guns and arrows.

However, some experienced people felt a little uncomfortable, and found that under the wall, in addition to the siege towers, in addition to the bird's gunners and crossbowmen, there were ten mortars, which had been retreated to a stop less than a hundred paces from the wall, and were now being filled with gunpowder and ready to fire.

As originally introduced, this mortar is a siege gun, and its principle is somewhat equivalent to that of a modern howitzer or mortar, with a short barrel, a thick muzzle, and a large number of items.

Because he didn't want to destroy the city wall at all, this mortar cannon fired not an iron ball that destroyed the city wall, but lead, more than 20 catties of scrap iron and waste sand into it, ignited and fired at the city wall.

Like other loose bombs, scrap iron and waste sand fly around the muzzle of the gun, and then rain and scatter flowers around the city wall, a cannon is more than 20 catties of iron sand and iron sand, and there is iron sand everywhere in a radius of more than ten zhang, like raindrops, although the lethality is not large, but the momentum is very amazing.

Being hit by iron sand and lead, especially those who have been hit by lead, because lead is a toxic metal, because of the lack of medical facilities, it is quite difficult to rescue, it is miserable.

The soldiers of the Great Western Army on the city wall are miserable one by one, and now Zhang Xianzhong is angry and resentful, and the news of its main force retreating north has already spread, although it was forced by the generals, but most of the soldiers did not have the heart to fight to the death, many people were so frightened that they fled for their lives, and a few who were thrown in the hold did not dare to poke their heads out and release their arrows to suppress the loyal and righteous soldiers under the city.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the siege tower has been pushed under the city wall, some people stand on the top of the tower and desperately throw the burning earth-shattering thunder over, while others stand on the siege tower condescendingly and release arrows and fire to suppress it.

At the same time, more people carried the ladder to the top of the city wall, and although some people fell into the moat, many more people were not afraid to climb up the city wall desperately, and finally climbed the city wall with all their might, jumped in, and then fought back and forth with their broadswords.

Because the moat is four or five meters wide, it is impossible for the Great Western Army to defend heavily, and the loyal and righteous soldiers who attacked the city wall were unstoppable, killing and scattering the panicked soldiers on the city wall, and now they were preparing to expand the results of the battle, and suddenly found that Zhang Nengqi personally led more than 1,000 soldiers and horses to arrive, and the two sides fought together.

Seeing that there were only more than 300 people on the city wall, Zhang Nengqi was still very confident, and led his troops to rush back and forth to kill, and on the other hand, he told Emperor Zhang Xianzhong of Daxi to be in a hurry.

But now that Zhang Xianzhong will burn Chengdu, the news that the Great Western Army will withdraw from Chengdu has already spread in the army, and the morale of the people is low, and they are not willing to fight and retreat at all.

And at this moment, a raging fire broke out in the city, which confirmed the news that the Great Western Army would burn the city.

Zhang Nengqi complained bitterly, the combat strength of the Loyal and Righteous Army was already above the Great Western Army, and although the strength of the Great Western Army was several times that of the enemy, the morale of the whole army was extremely low, and it was still difficult to win.

With the passage of time, especially after the Loyal Army suddenly changed its tactics and concentrated several mortar cannons and Furlong machine guns under the city wall to continuously shell the Great Western Army on the city wall, the situation slowly reversed to the Loyal Army.

An hour later, after Yang Bingyi built a pontoon bridge in the northeast corner and set up a ladder with a short gate under the city wall, the situation was completely reversed.

The two sides continued to fight, and at noon Yinghui Gate was lost, followed by Bei'an Gate in the north.

Hearing that Yinghuimen and Bei'anmen had fallen one after another, Zhang Xianzhong, who was commanding the various departments to set fires, was quite annoyed, the Great Western Army had 100,000 troops, and if you add 200,000 families, logistics, and baggage, if you are attacked into the city now, it will be even more difficult to withdraw safely.

Zhang Xianzhong put down the scheduled action of burning the city, and personally led his troops to block it, and the two sides fought fiercely in the alleys and alleys in the city, so that the plan to burn the city could not be fully implemented.

The situation is extremely critical, Yang Xuan has taken the Bei'anmen City Tower as his Chinese army's big tent, and now he has set up 2 catties of artillery on the city tower and aimed at the streets in the distance to bombard the Great Western Army.

The streets were chaotic, full of people, some fled, some escaped from the control of the Great Western Army, and there were even more families and strong men of the Great Western Army who were constantly crowding to retreat to the West Gate.

On the one hand, Yang Xuan sent messengers to the Sichuan governor Ma Gan and the deputy general Yang Zhan's military camp to report the emergency, and on the other hand, he led the soldiers and horses to the north gate, but the city of Chengdu was too big, and the loyal army had few soldiers and horses, and it was impossible to kill and disperse the obstructive Daxi Army for a while.

The two sides fought for a day and a night, and at noon the next day, the main force of the Great Western Army gradually withdrew from Chengdu City, and in the evening, Cao Zhangfang led his troops to firmly control the West Gate, and since then all the gates of Chengdu have fallen into the hands of the Loyal and Righteous Army.

Although Zhang Xianzhong's plan to burn the city was destroyed, the Shu Wangfu and the Yamen of the Governor's Office were severely affected, and there were still raging fires in many places.

The streets were full of panicked people, some of them were terrified and escaped from the capture of the Great Western Army, those who took the opportunity to escape from the Demon Capture of the Great Western Army, and some of the remnants of the soldiers were brave, and some even took advantage of the chaos to rob.

After controlling the various city gates, Yang Xuan directly appointed Senator Zhao Sixuan as the prefect of Chengdu Prefecture, and ordered him to join the Sichuan Governor Qian Bangxin and Senator Yin Chengqi to impose martial law in the whole city and organize people to extinguish the fire.

The whole city was divided into six major areas of responsibility, and Wang Shuji, Wang Zhibang, Jin Tongwu, Yang Wei, Wen Zirang's militia group, and Yang Wei's militia were each responsible for one area to prevent robbery and riots, and organize personnel to extinguish the fire.

Martial law was issued, and the whole city was ordered to be martial law.

Those who do not obey the command will be immediately beheaded

Take advantage of the fire to rob the robber, kill

Women's, killed

Walk around the street without permission, kill

Those who do not obey the order to put out the fire will be killed.

......

With the gradual implementation of the Ten Killings Order, Chengdu City is gradually restoring order as the gendarmes begin to patrol the streets.

When he came to the front of the Shu Palace, looked at the burning carrier hall, and saw the half-collapsed Duanli Gate, Yang Xuan was extremely annoyed, and saw a few Daxi officials in the soldiers.

Looking at Jiang Dingzhen and Gong Wanjing, who were cut with their hands behind their backs, Yang Xuan smiled and said: "The two of you have taken refuge in the rogue, you can think of today." ”

Jiang Dingzhen arched his hand and said: "My lord, I will wait for Sven to sweep the floor and insult the ancestors, if you want to scold, just scold." Zhang Xianzhong only listened to Wang Zhaolin's anger and resentment, today he was defeated by the adult, I am convinced, and now I have nothing to ask for, I only hope that the adult can give him a good time. ”

Yang Xuan pressed the handle of the knife with both hands, looked at Gong Wanjing next to him and said, "Gong Wanjing, you, what do you think?" ”

Gong Wanjing laughed and said: "The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is rotten, I originally thought that the eight kings would be able to clarify the universe, who would have expected that this would be the case, there is nothing to say below, I just want the adults to be happy."

Yang Xuan laughed when he heard this, brandished a big knife to cut off the ropes on his body, and looked at the surprised crowd: "Now that the Great Western Army has been defeated, Zhang Xianzhong has no possibility of turning over."

It is difficult to atone for the sins of the two of them to kill a thousand knives and 10,000 knives, but now the Manchu Tartars are in the Kou, the national disaster is at the head, and everyone needs to go to the national hardship together. ”

Both of them can be regarded as the main staff members of the Liukou, and after being captured, they will die of their conceit, and now when they see Yang Xuan released in public, they cry even more, hoping to be taken in to repay the grace of not killing.

Yang Xuan was overjoyed and immediately hired the two as friends to be in charge of the military Chinese book.

It didn't take long for Yang Bingyi to report that the department had seized a cart of chestnut trees.

This is not an ordinary chestnut tree, Zhang Xianzhong has been dominating the world for more than ten years, plundering countless wealth, and this time he decided to establish a regime based on Sichuan, bringing not only 200,000 soldiers and horses, but also more than ten years of wealth intercepted from all over the country.

This time the northern retreat was in a hurry, coupled with Yang Xuan's army to attack the city, some of the young and strong people who were forcibly recruited, and the captured soldiers took the opportunity to escape, and now there are as many as 20,000 or 30,000 people scattered in Chengdu City.

During the street fighting, Yang Bingyi saw several people in a hurry, desperately carrying a few big chestnut trees, and everyone went up to investigate, so five or six big chestnut trees were seized.

When I opened the chestnut tree, I saw that all of them were fifty taels of silver ingots, and a chestnut tree could hold twenty or thirty pieces, and such a small chestnut tree would have one or two thousand taels of silver.

In the Ming Dynasty, ordinary people's income was only twenty taels of silver a year, and it was unthinkable that a chestnut tree would have dozens of families for a year's livelihood, and its wealth could be imagined.

It is rumored that Zhang Xianzhong's wealth is as much as millions, and Yang Xuan is annoyed that the other party is treacherous and burns the city, and now he is just beating the water dog.

Ordered Qian Bangxin, Liu Lanchang and others to lead their troops to maintain order in Chengdu, sent messengers to various places, and strictly ordered Fan Mingshan to defend Shunqing Mansion with Liu Weiming, Chen Yingzong to defend Bazhou and Pengzhou, and Liu Weiminglie to defend Tongchuan Prefecture to prevent Zhang Xianzhong's retaliation.

Yang Xuan led the cavalry regiment, the guard regiment, Guo Chonglie's 3rd regiment, Yao Zhijiao's 4th regiment, Yang Bingyi's 5th regiment, Feng Youqing's 7th regiment and other 6 regiments to rest for one night, and the next day followed the remnants of Daxi to attack.

Historically, the various departments in central Sichuan did not move forward, and Zhang Xianzhong retreated.

But in the reincarnation of time and space, Yang Xuan was born out of thin air and led his troops to the city of Chengdu, so Zhang Xianzhong's retreat was not so thoughtful.

The Great Western Army had 200,000 people, and due to the panic during the retreat, many of them were people from Huguang who had been taken captive

Although the pursuit was two days late, the Onishi Army had a lot of baggage, and its movement was unusually slow, and the two-day journey was only more than 60 miles.
