Ganzhou as the most important stronghold of the Ming army in Jiangxi, the circumference is about 20 miles, the city wall is three zhang high, surrounded by the Ganjiang River and the tribute water, the moat in the south is also up to ten zhang wide, the city wall is wide and strong, the heart of the master Wang Shouren layer through this place, quelled the thief rebellion, after the 10,000 yuan Ji supervised the division of Gannan, it is also from the new reinforcement of the city, so that Ganzhou City is one of the strong cities of the Ming Dynasty.

There are nearly 100 large warehouses in the city, which can store grain, ordnance and armor, gunpowder, which were originally used to recover the whole Jiangxi and the Central Plains of the Northern Expedition, but the Ming army in southern Jiangxi lacked training, and the reinforcements from all over the country were not evenly matched, not only did not recover the whole province, but lost the city again and again, and the materials could only be piled up in the city.

Although these materials were not used in the Northern Expedition, they became the capital of the Ming army in Ganzhou to defend Ganzhou. \u000b 10,000 yuan Ji is about in his early forties, the word Ji people, Nanchang people, five years of the Apocalypse, successively served as the governor of the state government, entered the Ming officialdom, and embarked on a career as an official.

He has been in the officialdom for more than 20 years, with ups and downs in life, and he was really reused, or after the Tang King ascended the throne, he ordered him to enter the Jiangxi Governor's Division, let him enter the cabinet as a scholar of the Wuyingdian University, and the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of Soldiers, becoming the pillar of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

This time, Lekedehun's troops pressed the border, Wan Yuan Ji had no way to retreat, he came to Gannan to prepare for the emperor's move, but he was never able to draw troops, and the situation in Gannan gradually deteriorated.

A few days ago, a message came from the imperial court that the Son of Heaven had secretly sent a messenger to urge the governor of Chu and the governor of Yue to send soldiers and horses to meet him.

This news made Wan Yuan Ji realize that Ganzhou must not be lost, otherwise he would be a sinner who ruined the Ming court, and he must keep Ganzhou and ensure that His Majesty moved the road and the army that greeted him would not be cut off by the Qing soldiers. \u000b At this time, it was impossible for either Guangdong or Fujian to have reinforcements coming, and in the face of Luckdhun's 50,000 Qing soldiers, Wan Yuan Ji had to prepare as many rolling logs and stones as possible, arrange bows and arrows, artillery, and make equipment, and actively prepare for battle.

At night, the sky was a little overcast, densely covered with dark clouds, obscuring the bright moon and the starry sky of the summer night, and it seemed that there would be a rare heavy rain after the beginning of summer to eliminate the heat.

Under the cover of dense dark clouds, the earth is shrouded in dark night, and a group of soldiers on the city wall, patrolling with torches, the wind blows the flames and keeps flying, and there is a tendency that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

The Qing army is under the city, the Ming army does not dare to relax, every once in a while, there are soldiers in the city to throw torches to the city, in order to see if there are Qing soldiers under the city to steal the city in the dark night.

There are more than 1,000 patrol soldiers patrolling back and forth at the head of the city, vigilantly watching the movement under the city, and there are also boats cruising back and forth on the moat and the Ganshui water, so as to be in order.

In the middle of the night, a Ming army sentry ship on the moat, a soldier was occupying the bow of the boat, and suddenly there was a sound in front of him.

He looked at the shore, but suddenly saw a large black figure running towards the river.

"Enemy attack~" Seeing this, the sentry was immediately shocked, and couldn't help but hurriedly retract the little guy, then stumbled around, picked up the bell hammer, and rang the alarm bell hanging on the sentry ship.

A hurried "Knock ~ Knock ~ Knock ~" sounded, the Ming army in the city suddenly had a commotion, Wan Yuan Ji heard the alarm bell, and also took the generals and staff to climb the city wall, but the dark clouds covered the moonlight at night, and they basically couldn't see the situation by the moat ten zhang away.

At this time, the sentinel boat that discovered the situation had rowed to the city wall, and a thousand households on night duty in the city immediately shouted to the city: "Jiang Liang, what is the matter with the police?" ”

When the soldier heard this, he pointed to the river, looked up and replied: "Qianhu, the Qing army is filling the river with soil!" ”

Wan Yuan Ji heard this, frowned slightly, and then turned back to the generals beside him and said, "Release the rocket and look at the situation by the river~"

"Nuo~" A thousand households immediately responded with a fist, and then immediately mobilized nearly a hundred archers, who ignited the rocket on the torch at the head of the city, and then bent the bow to shoot.

Hundreds of rockets, like meteors, streaked across the night sky, Wan Yuan Ji and the Ming army in the city, by the light of the fire, immediately saw the army by the moat, a black oppressive army, urging a large number of people, to throw bags of soil into the moat.

Wan Yuan Ji was taken aback when he saw this, he knew that now was not the time to be soft-hearted, even if it was the people of the Ming Dynasty who filled the river, he still hurriedly shouted: "Pass on the order of the governor, and the general soldier Wu Zhifan will go to the city with three thousand birds!" \u000b At this time, Wang Fuzhi next to him said in a low voice: "Wan Governor, the Qing soldiers drove the people to fill the moat, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hold Ganzhou, Inspector, you must ask for help!" ”

There are still nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses in Ganzhou City, and there is a strong city to hold, to say that in the face of 50,000 Qing soldiers, the pressure should not be great, and why does Wang Fuzhi not have confidence in the defenders of Ganzhou?

This was originally from the composition of the hand army in Ganzhou, since the establishment of the Longwu court, Gannan is the fierce contention between the Ming and Qing dynasties, and close to the corner of Gannan, naturally can not resist the Qing soldiers, so the imperial court continues to transfer troops from all over the country to support Gannan.

Now there are 7,000 soldiers and horses in the city, including 7,000 troops from Wu Zhifan and Zhang Guozuo, 5,000 people from Zhang An and other troops transferred from the city, 2,000 people from Cao Zhijian, a reinforcement from Huguang, 3,000 troops from Suguansheng in Guangdong, and 3,000 soldiers from Guidi and Guizhou, most of them are three or four thousand, and some are two or three thousand, which is simply a hodgepodge. \u000b Such soldiers and horses, with a dialect between the two sides, even communicate very difficult, let alone fight together.

Wan Yuan Ji understood this, but he had no choice, so he had to say helplessly: "The imperial court is difficult to protect itself now, and we don't know the situation in Fujian, where will there be reinforcements?" \u000b Wang Fuzhi couldn't help but nodded, Fujian is indeed a big problem, once Zheng Zhilong surrendered to the Qing, Gannan was attacked on both sides, and Guangdong could not help, Wang Yan basically brought the main force of Guangdong into Huguang, after Zheng Zhilong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Guangdong will face the threat of Fujian, and it is also difficult to protect itself.

After thinking for a while, Wang Fuzhi said: "Wan Governor, in fact, it is not that there are no reinforcements, counting the time, the welcoming army should have already set off, as long as you contact them and let them enter Ganzhou, you can consolidate the city defense, and you can welcome Your Majesty." In addition, the Huguang war should have been carried out to a stage, and the superintendent can go to the Duke of Chu and the Governor of Chu to explain the situation, invite the troops of Chu and Yue, and coerce Nanchang to solve the crisis in Ganzhou! \u000b Wan Ji Wenyu, couldn't help frowning, he also thought about this plan, but he was worried that the governor of Yue and the governor of Chu had no troops to send, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while, but now he seems to have no choice, and he just said the situation, whether to send troops or not, it is the decision of the two governors of Yue and Chu themselves, and it should not affect the war in Chu.

"Mr. Chuanshan's words are reasonable, Mr. is the brother of the Duke of Chu! The Governor asked Mr. to write a letter of resignation for me. ”

"With a gesture, dare to disobey your fate~"
