Wu Sanbao tasted the frosting candy and asked in a trembling voice, "My lord! Really give each of us a packet of frosted candy? "Wu Sanbao knows the price of frosting candy, so he doesn't need to transport it to Nanzhili, just get rid of it here in Ganzhou, and this bag is also very much exchanged for nearly one hundred taels of silver. You must know that the old system of the Ming Dynasty inherited by the Manchus, the salaries of officials were very low. A general like him only has five taels of silver a month, and an ordinary soldier has five taels of silver. If it is distributed in full, it will be enough to make food and clothing, but this bit of silver is not guaranteed, and they can only get some benefits when they are fighting. Wu Sanbao traveled south and north in the past few years, and only saved less than 200 taels of silver, and he was ready to return to his hometown to buy a few acres of land and become a small landlord without fighting. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by the Ming army in Ganzhou, and the silver was lost when he fled for his life.

Zhang Jiayu nodded and said, "Yes, you go to the camp to find me 5,000 people, you need to be old enough to fight, not over forty." This matter is done, and you will be given two catties of frosting candy! ”

Rich and easy to do, hearing that the adult in front of him was so generous, Wu Sanbao also changed the constipation just now, patted his chest and promised to pick out the best soldiers for the adult.

Wu Sanbao really didn't disappoint Zhang Jiayu, in fact, it was mainly the power of silver. When the Qing prisoners heard that they would have a pound of frosting as long as they went to war, they immediately signed up one after another, and immediately recruited 5,000 people. None of these big-headed soldiers had ever seen frost candy, but they had only heard that it was expensive, worth more than silver.

Zhang Jiayu was very satisfied when he saw the 5,000 prisoners of war selected by Wu Sanbao, all of whom were between twenty and thirty, all of whom were of the age of fighting.

Zhang Jiayu found a box and stood up, and said loudly: "Listen, everyone, tomorrow we will attack the city, and you, as siege soldiers, will each be given a pound of frosting candy, the first one to climb the city will be given ten pounds, and the first hundred people will be sent three pounds of frosting candy to the city!" ”

Ten catties of frosting candy is a thousand taels of silver, and these big-headed soldiers heard that there was such a heavy reward, and their eyes turned red, and they all shouted: "Don't worry, my lord!" "Does it matter if you speak?"

"Don't worry! This official can't be greedy for your money! As long as you desperately attack the city, everyone will be rewarded! ”

After saying that, Zhang Jiayu asked people to send them the weapons and equipment they brought, of course, it was just a weapon, and the armor was still not issued, Zhang Jiayu also kept an eye on it, afraid that these guys would really turn back.

The Qing prisoners were overjoyed when they saw that the weapons issued were more elite than their own swords and guns. They are all veterans and know that a sharp weapon can greatly increase the chances of survival.

Zhang Jiayu saw that the preparations were almost complete, and said to Wu Sanbao: "Now it's up to General Wu, our Ming army will support you with muskets and cannons in the back!" ”

Wu Sanbao heard that the artillery of the Ming Army was firing from behind, and he didn't dare to ask them if they were on target. Bow your head and organize 5,000 Qing troops to take prisoners out of the camp.

Now the time is in the afternoon, after the attack in the morning was blocked, Jin Shenghuan in the city felt that there should be no problem, so he handed over the task of defending the city to Wang Deren, and he went home and slept with his wife in his arms.

Wang Deren didn't expect that the Ming army on the opposite side would be able to attack the city in the afternoon, and when he saw the Ming army lined up two miles away, he knew that he was going to attack the city again.

However, Wang Deren was not too worried, the battle in the morning had already shown that the firepower of the Ming army was not enough, and it was not enough to attack the city, and it was not the same as before.

But then Wang Deren was shocked, but he didn't expect a team of Qing troops to rush out behind the Ming army, and it was the guys who were captured yesterday.

Wang Deren sneered in his heart, as long as they don't come into direct contact with the Ming army, what combat effectiveness can these Qing troops have, maybe it may not be necessary to go to the city wall immediately anyway, the Ming generals on the opposite side are really bold, and they dare to be sent out to attack the city after just one day of capture.

Just look at these 5,000 captives pushing a few building carts, and some people carrying ladders. These siege tools were originally in the camp of the Qing army, and they were also used for siege half a month ago, but they were not expected to be used by the Ming army again.

Five thousand Qing army captives were red for silver, and under the leadership of the general Wu Sanbao, they began to attack the city.

The Qing army in the city saw that the Ming army behind them did not move, but just unhurriedly put the cannons. The Qing army under the city had already run to the city at this time, and a few guys shouted: "Brothers in the city, don't release arrows, we have to go in anyway, let us go in and fight the Ming army together!" ”

The Qing army in the city really recognized people below, after all, they were still comrades-in-arms yesterday.

"The third child, it's really you! I thought it was a trick of the Ming army! ”

"It's really us, we deceived the Ming army, in fact, we have to do it anyway!"

However, there were also a few Qing soldiers on the city wall who didn't believe what the people below said, and fired a few arrows and shot a few unlucky ghosts. The Qing troops in the city and under the city scolded together: "Grandma's bastard shot it, do you know that the one you shot is my eldest brother!" ”

"Don't fucking shoot arrows, wait for grandpa to go up and kill you!"

At this time, the Qing army under the city did not speak, and the ladder was ready to climb up, because Zhang Jiayu said very clearly, the first one to come up had ten catties of frosting sugar, and the first hundred had three catties.

The six-meter city wall quickly climbed up, and just when the Qing army in the city was about to welcome his brother, he didn't expect his brother to make a move.

The first guy in the upper city was very excited, and ten catties of frosting candy were in his hands. As soon as he climbed the city wall, he immediately drew the horizontal knife on his waist and slashed at a Qing army on the side.

The weapons brought by Zhang Jiayu were all pure steel horizontal knives, but they were not sold to the Nanzhili Resistance Organization, and they were regarded as 100 steel knives in the Ming Dynasty.

The Qing army on the side was about to reach out and hold the brother who came up, but he didn't expect to be greeted by a horizontal knife, and he was immediately cut off and half-pulled without paying attention.

The Qing troops around this knife were stunned, and they didn't react for a while, obviously they were brothers living in a tent, how could they do it?

Wang Deren, who was still standing in the distance, had experience, and he reacted immediately and shouted: "They have been bought, brothers!" ”

But at such a moment's moment, nearly a hundred people climbed up to the top of the city and immediately fought with the Qing army.

The effect of frosting candy, coupled with the sharpness of the weapon, really caught the Qing army off guard, and the prisoners who rushed to the city immediately had the advantage, and as more prisoners rushed to the city, the defense line on the city was constantly expanding.

Wang Deren found that it was not good at this time, and hurriedly asked his own soldiers to transfer the reserves, if these people were not beaten down, it would be dangerous in Ganzhou.

In this way, the two units that were originally comrades-in-arms yesterday were provoked by an unscrupulous official, and the brothers turned against each other.

Zhang Jiayu under the city saw that the city was in a piece, and he was happy in his heart, and said: "Two generals, see it!" Just 10,000 catties of frosting candy, only 5,000 taels of silver, let these people fight to death! ”

Ma Liang looked at Zhang Jiayu in a cold sweat, and swore in his heart that he would stay away from these stinky old nine in the future, and his heart was really fucking black.

"General Ma, don't be stunned, take advantage of the battle in the city like this, you send someone to blow up the city wall with a gunpowder truck, let's kill it!"

Ma Liang didn't hear clearly, and asked, "My lord, don't you wait for the captives to rush in?" ”

"They? They are just cannon fodder, and they are all dead to save 10,000 catties of frosting sugar! ”

Ma Liang felt that he and Zhang Jiayu could no longer communicate normally, so it was better to stay away from this guy. He said, "I'll prepare," and quickly ran away.

Just when the city wall was fighting for life and death, there were ten Ming soldiers wearing the clothes of the Qing army under the city, dragging a small car, and the car was pulling 500 catties of compressed black * gunpowder, the explosive power of this thing has been 30% of the power of the yellow explosives * in later generations, 500 jin is nearly 200 catties of yellow explosives, which is more than enough to blow up this section of the city wall.

These ten people pushed the cart with their waists, trying not to let the Qing army in the city find out, in fact, the Qing army couldn't find it, the top was already in a mess, and someone was in charge of the affairs under the city.

Ten men pushed the cart to the base of the city wall, dug a pit half a meter deep and three meters long at the base of the city wall with a pickaxe, and put five bags of gunpowder into the pit. In fact, it should have been dug deeper, but there was really no time, there were only 5,000 captives on the city wall, but there were 30,000 people in the city, and they were no match for the Qing army after the effect of the silver disappeared.

The squad leader took out an ignition tube for artillery, and the lead was long enough for them to run to a safe distance.

After more than 20 seconds, there was a loud bang at the south gate of Ganzhou Town, and the six-meter-high city wall seemed to be lifted by a giant hand.

Seeing that there was a gap of 100 meters that was blown out, Zhang Jiayu said: "Okay, the following are the two generals, it's up to you!" ”

Ma Liang and Ma Rufeng had already prepared, and when they saw the city wall being blown open, they immediately led people to rush in.

At this time, Jin Shenghuan, who was in the city, heard a loud noise from the southern city, and he was very experienced in combat, and he immediately knew that something was wrong, and if it was not good, the city wall would collapse.

Jin Shenghuan hurriedly came out to find his son and said, "You go and bring people to get ready, open the north gate, I left a boat on the dock, let's go!" ”

"But Dad, you should take someone to the South Gate now, and you should be able to recapture the South Gate!"

Jin Shenghuan slapped his son angrily and scolded: "Didn't you see it yesterday? We are not the opponent of the Ming army at all, now if we don't run, it's over, go and prepare! ”

Jin Daoming didn't dare to refute, and hurriedly rushed to the north gate with his personal army.

The north gate is Yongjinmen, which is the water pass of Ganzhou City, and the treacherous and cunning Jin Shenghuan left a way back for himself early.

After Jin Daoming came here to get ready, he found that his father did not come, and he felt bad and hurriedly brought someone back to pick up Jin Shenghuan. Sure enough, as Jin Daoming estimated, Jin Shenghuan was blocked in the mansion by a team of Ming troops.

There were about 100 people in this Ming army, but fortunately, there was no artillery, and Jin Shenghuan and dozens of personal soldiers could still hold it by relying on the gate of the mansion.

Jin Daoming came to his father and said, "Dad, you go quickly, I'll be here for a while!" ”

Jin Shenghuan nodded and said, "You come with it quickly!" With that, he led someone out the back door.

Seeing his father walking away, Jin Daoming was also about to rush out and run, but at this time, the Ming army on the opposite side brought an artillery.

Seeing that the artillery was coming, Jin Daoming finished speaking, and just after finishing speaking, the Ming army artillery was fired, the gate of the mansion was blown down, and Jin Daoming was buried in the rubble.
