In order to seize the time, Wang Yan not only urged the people to rush to work day and night, but the Ming army in addition to 6,000 cavalry to monitor Zhangzhou, more than 30,000 infantry troops also took turns to fight.

Soon, all kinds of fortifications were gradually completed, the Ming army buried bombs outside the city of Zhangzhou, set up antlers, repelled horses, dug countless deep trenches, built long walls, and erected wooden towers, built enemy towers to directly observe the city, so that every move of the Qing army in Zhangzhou could be controlled by the Ming army at any time.

Ten days later, Zhangzhou was basically trapped to death, Wang Yan immediately left Wang Shixiu to lead 6,000 cavalry, and let He Zhen lead 10,000 foot soldiers to continue to strengthen the fortifications to prevent the Qing troops in Zhangzhou from breaking through, and he led 24,000 people to march with Zheng Chenggong by land and water, and killed Fuzhou.

On March 3, Wang Yan left Zhangzhou, and a day later, crossed Xixi and entered Changtai County, where there were only more than 1,000 defenders and were controlled by a Mongolian cow.

Wang Yan didn't let people attack, he rode alone, followed by only one flag bearer, and walked around the city, and the Qing soldiers in the city saw the flag clearly, and suddenly shouted, "Wang Xianggong is here." He directly tied up the defenders and surrendered to Kaesong.

The gentry of Changtai hurriedly invited the world-famous Wang Xianggong to enter the city, but Wang Yan did not have that spare effort, and ordered the residents in the city to cut their braids and restore their clothes, so they led the army and continued to march eastward with murderous spirit.

In the prefectures and counties he passed along the way, Wang Yan only let people claim that the officials and troops came to recover Fujian, and if they did not surrender, they would die, and the large and small counties would surrender when they saw the flag, and by March 10, dozens of prefectures and counties such as Tong'an and Anxi would descend in anticipation.

The Qing army ruled Fujian for a short time, and the Qing army was unpopular and looted very much, and now it was encouraged by Wang Xianggong's entry into Fujian, as well as the spread of "Seeking the Northern Captives to Restore the Eight Fujian", and the rebel army that had been suppressed began to surge again.

In mid-March, Wang Yan swept away Annan again, and Zheng Chenggong also joined forces with the old ministry to take Anping again, and the cities in central Fujian were broken one after another, and the Ming army swept away the Qing soldiers again and again, making the Ming army as powerful as the sky, which can be said to be advancing all the way.

This situation did not change until the Ming army was killed under the city of Quanzhou. Zhang Cunren had 30,000 horses, 8,000 in Yanping, to prevent the Ming army from southern Jiangxi from entering Fujian, 8,000 in Fuzhou, 5,000 in Putian, 5,000 in Quanzhou, and 4,000 scattered in other towns.

Since the Song Dynasty, Quanzhou is one of the most important maritime trade cities on the southeast coast, and is the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road, although the Qing court does not attach importance to maritime trade, but Quanzhou is rich enough, and Zheng Chenggong covets this place, so Zhang Cunren entrusted the trustworthy Han army with the red flag armor Lazhang Jing Zhao Guozuo to lead.

At this time, as Wang Yan and Zheng Chenggong entered the city of Quanzhou at the same time, the Qing soldiers in all counties of Quanzhou Prefecture retreated into the city of Quanzhou, and the city was in chaos because of the arrival of the Ming army.

The Qing soldiers in Quanzhou were only 5,000, and the more than 1,000 defeated soldiers who broke into the city were only 6,000, while the Ming army outside the city had more than 30,000 people.

This made the Qing soldiers in the city seem a little desperate, demoralized, and the military discipline was sloppy, and many Qing soldiers began to occupy people's houses, rob property, and **** women, making the city cry and shout, and there was chaos everywhere.

Zhao Guozuo didn't have the heart to restrain it at this time, the Qing soldiers were originally not good in military discipline, and now at this time, if you don't let the brothers vent, how can you improve morale and resist the Ming army?

"General, there are nearly 100 squires crying outside the mansion, hoping that we will restrain military discipline."

Zhao Guozuo waved his hand irritably, "This kind of thing, directly send troops to disperse, and if you dare to come over, you will kill them all." ”

He is distraught now, how can he care about this, and now he is thinking about a question, whether he should guard the capital city of Quanzhou?

The strength of troops inside and outside the city has almost reached six to one, and the Ming army is like a rainbow, he doesn't know how long he can hold it, the most important thing is that he knows that Zhang Cunren has no troops to save him, and the eight thousand people in Fuzhou are also delivering food, and the Zheng fleet is mobile, and it is impossible for Fuzhou to defend without leaving troops.

The idea of abandoning the city kept coming to his mind, which not only guaranteed his life, but also took away 6,000 men and horses to fight with Zhang Cunren, so that the Qing army's forces would not be too scattered, but abandoning the city would definitely be to spread the girl and run wildly, so all the finances he had looted before would be lost, which was not only reluctant for him, but also for his generals, who might not be willing to give up.

Just when Zhao Guozuo hesitated, Wang Yan's 24,000 men and horses, and Zheng Chenggong's 10,000 troops were stationed in the west, south, and north, outside the four city walls, but there was no garrison outside the west gate, giving the Qing army a hope of escaping.

Wang Yan took more than a dozen generals outside the city to observe the enemy situation in the city, and he smiled at everyone: "Last year, when Bolo and I fought in Yanping, we successfully took the opportunity to attack Quanzhou. ”

In fact, Wang Yan also occupied Quanzhou once, and also robbed the Zheng family of millions of taels of silver and hundreds of thousands of stone grain.

Zheng Chenggong said with a smile: "At that time, the lowly position was cooperated with the old department, so it didn't cost any effort, and later the Qing soldiers counterattacked, and the lowly took the initiative to evacuate, but the artillery and materials in the city were transported away by the lowly position, so the current defense of Quanzhou should not be strong, and it can be attacked directly." ”

After all, Quanzhou is a big city, Zheng Chenggong suggested to roll up his sleeves, just do it, which surprised everyone, and Li on the side said: "Is there some relatives and enemies in the national surname." \u000bZheng Chenggong's suggestion was very much in line with Liu Shun's appetite, and he hugged his fists and said: "We have more than 30,000 people, are we still afraid of 6,000 Qing soldiers." Guogong, a certain willing to be the vanguard, take the lead in capturing the city, and try to clear the soldiers. ”

Wang Yan smiled, "Quanzhou City is not difficult to fight, just try it, since Liu Shun is invited to fight, then you should go and prepare first." ”

"Nuo~" Liu Shun was overjoyed to clench his fists, and then turned around and returned to the camp.

Everyone took a turn under the city and found that the city wall of Quanzhou was not tall, and some places were uneven, it was estimated that when Zheng Chenggong evacuated, it was destroyed, and the Qing army had not yet completed the repair, which made Wang Yan laugh slightly.

"What is the cabinet thinking?" Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but ask.

"The art of war says that five rules will attack it, and this cabinet and Chenggong have joined forces with more than 34,000 people, five times more than Zhao Guozuo. People say thirty-six plans, go for the best plan, so where does Zhao Guozuo get his confidence, why didn't he give up Quanzhou and retreat east? ”

Zheng Chenggong smiled: "It is estimated that he hesitated and missed the opportunity." He may want to withdraw now, but the price he has to pay is great. He thought that he would not take this road unless he was forced to do so. ”

Wang Yan nodded and said with a smile: "Then he won't go~"
