Fortunately, Hong Chengchou found it early, and did not wait for the long street in front of the gate to completely burn up, so he rushed to the city gate under the protection of the guards.

"Dodge, dodge, dodge......" The guards escorted Hong Chengchou to the top of the steps, Hong Chengchou was also embarrassed at the moment, and with a direct pop, he fell on the steps of the city wall, only to see that the Jinan City in front of him had become a sea of fire. The flickering flames, like a beating death dancer, are terrifying.

"Oops......" Hong Chengchou also moved his feet, he didn't know who scratched his calf, he was only concerned about running for his life before, and he was unconscious, but he relaxed for a while, and he grinned in pain, making it difficult for him to stand up.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and it has begun to spread to the city gate, the sky-high flames, illuminating the dark night sky red, even if it is twenty miles away, you can see it clearly, Hong Chengchou sat there, and the fire light that steamed and jumped from him illuminated his already red face even more red.

"Don't panic, don't mess up, go out of the city one by one......" Hong Chengchou roared there, the Eight Banners relied on their identities to push away those green battalion soldiers who wanted to get out of the city, and the green battalion soldiers were also in a position of life and death.

"If anyone dares to do this again, military law will be ......" Hong Chengchou struggled to stand up, commanded the evacuation, and as soon as the shout came out, he only heard a series of rumbling sounds, which sounded in his ears.

"Ah......" A huge cracking sound sounded from the panicked crowd at the city gate, and suddenly the hundred and ten people who were close to the scene all lied to the minced meat, which was very miserable, Hong Chengchou fortunately hid far away, otherwise he would also be affected.

"There are spies...... There are spies...... Don't ......mess around" Hong Chengchou also reflected at this moment, this chaotic scene can only be a conspiracy, he knew that he had planted it and fell into a conspiracy of Cao Bianjiao, but he didn't know it, it was really ridiculous, and he thought about chasing Cao Bianjiao tomorrow, but he didn't expect that he would almost die here today.

"Boom ......and rumble" and several explosions sounded, even the heavy city gate was shattered, overwhelmed, and killed a lot of people, no one knew what was wrong, who was the spy, where did the spy come from, why did it suddenly explode, the wounded and dead soldiers at the city gate piled up a large area, and the mournful wail sounded, no one cared about these anymore, they all wanted to get out of the crowd, and they didn't want to be the next one.

At this time, a team of men and horses rushed out of the darkness, dancing knives and guns, swarming, rushing into the panicked Qing army, killing people when they saw them, and when they were defeated, they often ignited the * fuse on their bodies, and then an explosion sounded, deafening.

At this moment, whether it is the Green Battalion or the Eight Banners, they are completely intimidated, they have no fighting spirit, many people don't even have weapons, how to resist the crazy Ming army, the Ming army who sees death as home? This kind of thing is not only in this one city gate, but everywhere else, on the streets, many fleeing Qing soldiers are like this, and they are killed and injured by the Ming army that suddenly rushed out.

The current situation of the Qing army is that the generals cannot find where their soldiers are, and the soldiers cannot find where their commanders are.

"Kill!" From the darkness, a Ming army rushed out from outside the city of Jinan, and the war horses were flying, facing the morning glow, and swarmed. As the first general, the crotch of the green horse, a sharp horse lance in the palm of the hand flew up and down, dark red knives in the air one by one, one by one, it was Cao Bianjiao who led the Ming army to kill.

Hong Chengchou heard the shouting and killing outside the city, and his pupils shrank, and he suddenly had an ominous omen. He turned around and staggered to walk, but the wound on his foot irritated him, making it difficult for him to even stand, where could he still run? The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer, and the sound of shouting and killing is getting louder and louder, Hong Chengchou knows that Cao Bianjiao is coming to collect the fruits of victory, he can't delay, he knows very well what kind of outcome will be if he falls into the hands of the Ming army, even if he breaks this leg, he must move and escape from here.

Cao Bianjiao took the lead, has rushed into the camp of the Qing army outside the city, can not be said to be the camp, it is a group of frightened birds who escaped in a hurry, at this moment Cao Bianjiao personally led the cavalry to kill, they are all unprepared, like lambs to the slaughter, many people's weapons have long been lost, in the face of the Ming army's swords and arrows, the only thing they can do is to flee.

Although the Eight Banners did not have much time to enter the customs, it was not the time to be outside the customs, but in just a few years, they had learned to enjoy and attach importance to life, thanks to the enclosure order issued by Dolgon, after the Qing army entered Beijing, in order to solve the livelihood of the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners, it was decided to forcibly occupy the land near Beijing, and then issued an order to enclose the land, and in December of the first year of Shunzhi, it was stipulated that all the ownerless wasteland of the Han people in the prefectures and counties near Beijing would be enclosed and distributed to the kings and soldiers of the east. In the fourth year of Shunzhi, the enclosure order was issued, and the children of the Eight Banners have become landlords of all sizes, that is, a small soldier, who also occupies hundreds of acres of fertile land, raises several beautiful concubines, and learned to listen to music and fight cocks and drink tea for pleasure.

"Kill ......" the Ming army tiger into the flock of sheep, chasing the wandering Qing army, swords, guns and halberds beckoning, whether you are Manchu or Han, as long as you are not your own person, it is a blow to kill, Cao Bianjiao this person has always hated the Manchu slaughter order, in the north, they made the slaughter of Zhaozhou, the slaughter of Jinan, the slaughter of Baoding, the slaughter of Sanhe, the slaughter of Changping, the slaughter of Luoyang, the slaughter of Guide, the slaughter of Jinxiang, etc., the people who died in their hands are more than millions, these executioners, not only Manchurian, but also these green battalion soldiers, Cao Bianjiao decided not to pity these ancestors anymore and must kill them all.

The Qing soldiers who finally escaped outside the city suddenly scattered and fled, did not organize a defensive formation, and the Qing army in the city was not allowed to come out for a while, seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, it was spreading here, and they were all like ashes, and then when they looked at the steps of the city wall, Hong Chengchou, who was still shouting just now, did not know where to go at the moment, and the soldiers had lost their backbone, and they didn't know what to do.

At this moment, Hong Chengchou has dragged his injured leg to the city wall, found a no-man's land, picked up the rope he picked up just now, and prepared to climb down the city along the rope, as long as he is out of the city, he can escape back in disguise as a common man, even if he will be punished, but he will not be punished, and he will fall into the hands of the Ming army, the lightest is afraid that it will be cut by a thousand knives, Hong Chengchou knows very well that he is the first person on the list of traitors in the Ming Dynasty, and it is difficult to survive.

"Who?" Hong Chengchou had just jumped out of the city, when he heard a shout from behind, and he hurriedly squatted there with his head in his hands, trembling.

"Are you a Tartar? Okay, just kill you sharpening your knife! ”

"Don't! No! As soon as Hong Chengchou heard this, he immediately hurriedly shouted: "I am Hong Chengchou, the secretary of the military department of the Qing Dynasty, if you send me back to Beijing, I will definitely repay you and give you a thousand taels of gold!" ”

"Good! I didn't expect that I had just come out of the tunnel, and I caught a big fish, Hong Chengchou, okay, I deserve to make a contribution! ”

That's right, this person is Gao Yigong who just came out of the secret passage, and when he saw that the person in front of him turned out to be Hong Chengchou, Gao Yigong was also overjoyed, the knife was already on Hong Chengchou's neck, and he kicked it directly, making Hong Chengchou fall to the ground, and then Gao Yigong dragged Hong Chengchou away like a dead dog.
