At three o'clock, the torches in the Tongji Gate were bright, and hundreds of Qing soldiers surrounded the tunnel exit with a serious face, they formed a circle, the outer side was the gunner with ammunition, and the inner side was the spearman with a spear, and the gungun and the cold light glittering spear head were aimed at the dark exit.

Suddenly, there was a rush of wheezing and footsteps at the exit, followed by several Qing soldiers covered in blood, who fled from the tunnel in a hurry.

The general separated the crowd, rushed to the exit in a few steps, picked up a Qing soldier who had just escaped, and asked loudly: "What's the situation?" ”

"Three of them were blown up, one of them went into the water, and the other two were dug up by the other side, and they are still fighting!" Qing Bing replied in horror.

When the Qing general heard this, he turned his head and said to the Qing soldiers surrounding the exit: "You have a good look, if a Ming army rushes up, kill it immediately!" ”

After speaking, he pulled the Qing soldier covered in blood, and walked towards the city gate, and said, "You follow me to see Gushan and Governor Hong." ”

After the Qing army discovered that the Ming army was digging tunnels, they began to dig out from inside the city.

Hong Chengchou originally thought that when the Ming army found that the excavation tunnel was discovered, it would stop digging, after all, there were Qing soldiers guarding underground, it was difficult for them to implement the plan to bomb the city, and the bombing of the city lost its suddenness, the Qing army had been prepared, and deployed heavy troops, even if it was bombed, it was difficult to rush into the city, and it was of little significance to continue digging, but after the tunnel was discovered, the Ming army did not give up, but fought with the Qing army in the tunnel, as if it had to bomb the city.

This underground tug of war has gone from the afternoon to the present.

At this time, Hong Chengchou and Tong Tulai were standing outside the doorway, and Bo Luo also rushed over when he heard the news.

Around them, the Eight Banners carried torches, grease-stained torches burned, and the flames danced in the wind, showing a sense of slaughter.

"Lord, Governor, Gushan." The Qing general came to the outside of the door, saluted three times, pushed the Qing soldiers to the front, and said: "The people sent down by the lowly position were beaten out by the Ming army, and more than 100 people, four or five people ran out. ”

Hong Chengchou and the others, who were talking, listened, and looked at the Qing soldiers whose clothes were stained with blood, and they could feel the fierceness of the underground fighting.

"What's next?" Hong Chengchou asked.

The Qing soldier was a little stunned, after all, it was the governor who asked, he trembled his lips and said: "Back to the governor, the Ming army underground has to rush under the city wall as if they don't want to die, transport gunpowder, and the small ones have blown up the three tunnels, but it didn't take long for the Ming army to dig through again, as if they would not stop if they didn't blow up the city." The little ones, the little ones are really unbearable..."

After the Qing soldiers finished speaking, they actually whimpered, Hong Chengchou frowned, waved his hand to take him aside, and then instructed the Qing general: "Send people down again, be sure not to let the Ming army bomb the city." ”

The Qing general did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly took the order and turned away. When he returned to the exit, he ordered his troops and ordered a general: "Chen Si'er, take your people down." ”

The general and his subordinates who were selected suddenly turned pale, and when the general saw that they were reluctant, he immediately pulled the knife and shouted: "Don't you hurry up, do you want to engage in military law?" ”

The faces of the hundreds of Qing soldiers were full of helplessness, so they had to pick up their weapons, light torches, and line up to enter the tunnel.

At the doorway, Hong Chengchou and the three of them frowned slightly, and Tong Tulai said, "Lord Wang, Governor Hong, Wang Zhi's posture is determined to blow up the city!" ”

Hong Chengchou didn't speak, and Bo Luo said: "Is there something wrong with the outside line that makes Wang Wei have to step up the siege of the city, even if he is discovered, he will grit his teeth and blow up the city." ”

As he was talking, the artillery array outside the city suddenly roared, and flames erupted in the darkness, and dozens of cannonballs smashed on the city wall, causing the city wall to shake for a while, and a large amount of dust fell down in the doorway.

The three of them hurriedly left the doorway, Bolo patted the dust on his body, and Tong Tulai on the side said: "The Ming army transferred all the artillery to Tongjimen, and bombarded it overnight, it seems that it is determined to open Jimen." ”

Hong Chengchou was taking off the bowl and hat, turning it over and pouring out the dust that fell on the top of the hat, listening to his words, he couldn't help but buckle the hat on the bare head again, and then said in a deep voice: "You have to strengthen your vigilance tonight, this governor will transfer a man and horses over, and tomorrow if the Ming army is really the main attack on Tongjimen, you must ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

Outside the city, the camp of the Ming army, inside Wang Yan's tent, the lights were bright.

The main generals of the Ming army gathered together, the tent was lit with tallow wax, and the air was a little hot, but everyone was unaware of it, and they gathered in front of a huge sand table.

After the Qing army occupied Nanjing, the layout of Nanjing City did not change much, so the sand table of the Ming army could completely copy the characteristics of the entire Nanjing City.

At this time, Wang Yan pointed to the sand table and began to make the final order, he first looked at Zheng Chenggong and said: "Tomorrow, Chenggong, you are responsible for commanding and deploying the Jinchuan Gate, Shence Gate, and Taiping Gate to feint to attack the Dongcheng, and contain the Qing army in the Dongcheng." ”

Zheng Chenggong hugged his fists to receive the order, Wang Yan saw this, and immediately looked at Jin Shenghuan, "Li Yuanbo's fourth tunnel has been dug under the Tongji Gate, and the gunpowder has been buried, early tomorrow morning, once the city is blown up, the Huchen Department will rush to the gap, so that the Hong thieves continue to send people and horses to support the Tongji Gate, and attract the main force of the Qing soldiers in Nanjing City to the south city." ”

Jin Shenghuan listened, but he was puzzled: "Your Highness, the situation of our people and horses, I'm afraid that it can't put pressure on the Qing soldiers of Tongjimen, and Your Highness also knows..."

Wang Yan waved his hand to interrupt his words and said directly: "You listen to this fan." Wang Yan paused, looked at Zheng Chenggong and said: "Chenggong is responsible for the feint attack, and five thousand elites can be allocated to Huchen, but is there a problem?" ”

Zheng Chenggong hesitated for a moment, but still clenched his fists and said: "There is no problem, Gan Hui under the command of the subordinate can temporarily listen to the orders of Jin Duzhen!" ”

Wang Yan nodded with satisfaction, "Let Gan Hui play the banner of loyalty, and this domain will transfer the Iron Man Army to you to play the banner of supervision, so that the Hong thieves will definitely think that we are mainly attacking Tongjimen." ”

When Jin Shenghuan heard Wang Yan's arrangement, he had nothing to say, and immediately hugged his fists and took the order, "With the help of General Gan and the Iron Man Army, the humble position will definitely attract the attention of the Hong thieves to Tongjimen." ”

Wang Yan listened to his assurance, put his mind at ease, and then said, "I'm talking about Xicheng below." ”

He stopped, turned his head to look at Gao Yigong, Liu Shun, Wang Shixiu, and Man Dazhuang, and the four of them felt their gaze, and their faces immediately became serious.

"Tomorrow, Liu Shun, you continue to attack the Sanshan Gate, Man Dazhuang, you prepare some small boats for Gao Yigong that can enter the water gate, once the main force of the Qing army is attracted to the Tongji Gate in the south city, the inner Ying in the city will attack the Water Gate, and then Gao Yigong will cooperate with it inside and outside." Wang Yan said, the wooden pole in his hand pointed on the sand table, and then looked at Gao Yigong and said: "After breaking through the water gate, Gao Yigong's men and horses will be immediately divided into two, and all the way to the north to kill the Sanshan Gate, open the city gate for Zhongwu Town, and enlarge the army into the city." The other way is to advance along the river, occupy the Shangchun Bridge, Xiachun Bridge, and Wuding Bridge, and block the Qing army in Nancheng, and it is necessary to annihilate the main force of the Qing army in Nancheng, and not let it escape into the city, understand? ”

"We will obey Your Highness's orders!" All the generals clenched their fists in solemnity, apparently without objection.

??“ Good! Wang Yan exclaimed, his expression was solemn, his tone was sonorous and heavy, he struggled to swing his iron fist to show his incomparable faith, and said loudly to the generals: "The southern capital has been overturned for four years, this battle, recovering the old capital, is a crucial battle to recover Shenzhou, only success is not allowed to fail!" ”
