Chapter 438: Funing is difficult to attack
The common people of Beijing took the initiative to report the abnormal signs they found, and often the bad guys were caught before committing the crime, and for a while, the law and order situation in Beijing was in order. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The good people of Beijing also took the initiative to maintain order at more than a dozen grain sales points, and immediately stopped people who had bought life-saving grain many times, striving to sell grain evenly to every household.
Wang Chengen, who was in charge of investigating the movements in the Jingshi City, saw that it was Lord Huang Sheng's family who had done so many good things, and he truthfully played Emperor Chongzhen at the first time.
Zhu Youzhen listened to Wang Chengen's reply and sighed a lot, Huang's ability is not simple, he is not in Beijing, and the family members who stay at home are so good at doing things, not only managing Wang Gongchang New District in an orderly manner, but also participating in the security management of the entire Beijing Division.
And the results were immediate, and the security of the Jingshi was good. The emperor regretted even more that he didn't use Huang Sheng in the first place, and used Yuan Chonghuan, a big liar with low eyes.
At the end of the second year of Chongzhen, Ma Shilong, the chief military officer, took Ma Shihu's men and horses to fight a vicious battle with Jiannu in Liangxiang, and there were dozens of casualties among each other.
The young emperor adjusted the cabinet team again, and Zhou Yanru, He Ruzhong, and Qian Xiangkun, who were the attendants of the Ministry of Rites, were scholars of the Ministry of Rites and scholars of Dongge University, and Zhiwenyuan Pavilion.
The Ming Dynasty did not have a peaceful New Year, after the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the Jin army broke through the Yongping Mansion, and Zheng Guochang, the deputy envoy of the military preparation road, Zhang Fengqi, the prefect, and Lu Chenggong, the official of the army, died in the chaos.
Guochang shilling ordered Zhusheng to attack Yang Chun to death, Liao Ruqin, the Zhongshu Sheren, Jiao Yanqing, the deputy commander-in-chief, Zhao Guozhong, and Zhusheng Han Yuandong, all fought with all their strength, and Cheng Yingqi of the Chinese army was killed.
Three days later, the Jiannu people fell to Luanzhou City, and Yang Lian, the governor of Zhou, saw that the general trend had gone to wield his sword and kill himself. Two days later, the Houjin army, which was like a bamboo, intended to make persistent efforts to take Funing, but who knew that it had encountered a hard bone.
Although Funing City is not big, it is as solid as a rock under the painstaking management of Zhixian County for more than two years, and there are Yao San and Zhou Fang sent by the Huang family to train the villagers, and they brought ten veterans to work here for two years.
In the first year of Chongzhen, the Huang family built a safe granary in Funing City, opened a rice shop and a business, and last year opened the Funing branch of "Huaxia Daqian Village", the Huang family will hire many workers when running a place, and will also send veterans to train the villagers.
Therefore, there are more than 30 veterans of the Huang family in Funing, 36 township braves, 200 family members, 500 township braves, and more than 1,000 people who are often trained.
As early as when he learned that Jiannu had entered the customs, Cheng Da Da and his family were also inspectors of the Inspection Department Du Youtian, as well as Yao San and Zhou Fang, who began to accept refugees and screen traitors.
Because a large courtyard with a high wall was specially built in Funing City, the refugees who fled into Funing took refuge, and among the refugees, strong laborers who had relatives and friends to provide proof and could be trusted to form a picket team.
Unable to prove his innocence, Jean has always been locked up in the compound for surveillance, and those who have abnormal behaviors are directly taken down and sent to the Funing County Prison.
Yao Sanji adopted the consistent style of the Huang family's work, and used the masses to supervise each other to find clues, and the traitors were found almost every day in the past month.
Cheng Da Da is smart and quite shrewd, and he finds that these spies infiltrating Funing is a purposeful and planned action.
The order they received was to find that the army of Jiannu was attacking the city, and they should cooperate with the outside world, or deceive the city gates, or spread rumors to confuse the people, or set fire to the city everywhere to create chaos.
Under the leadership of the magistrate and the veterans of the Huang family, the people of Funing poured water on the city in early December, counting nine cold winters, but it took a day and night, and Funing became an ice city.
The common people of the city have come to participate in the storage of materials to defend the city, and the equipment for defending the city is dazzling, and there are countless rolling wood, stones, gunpowder, and fierce fire oil that have been prepared.
Because everyone knows that the enemy army that attacks the city by fire is the most effective, and the cauldron of grease that is boiling and smoking, it will be poured directly down the city, no matter how thick the armor of Jiannu is, it will not help, and then throw down the torch, and Jiannu's shield cart will immediately ignite a fire.
The first to come to Funing City with two Jiala was the Lord of the Blue Banner Mang Gurtai, who coaxed and sent two Da Ming Xiucai who were forced to surrender to Jiannu to persuade him to surrender.
Yao San pretended to agree to negotiate the conditions, and carried the two Xiucai onto the city wall with a hanging basket, and then told them not to go back, and if a child became a hostage, he would die sooner or later by being coerced by Jiannu.
One of the two Xiucai dukes is called Gui Zhiyang and the other is Cheng Daodong, they listened to Yao San's advice and agreed with tears.
Immediately, Cheng Daodong shouted and told Jiannu that the county magistrate here did not believe that the Houjin army would spare the lives of the people in the city, and asked for a real Houjin army envoy to negotiate, and if no one in the Houjin army dared to come, he would give up.
Mang Gurtai led the army to drive straight in, and along the way the Daming city that surrendered without a fight did not know how many, seeing that Funing was just a small city with a small projectile, he didn't think that there would be fierce resistance here.
A Bayala beside him took the initiative to ask to go to Funing to negotiate, and this kid was carried up to the city wall by a hanging basket and found that the situation was not right, because he saw dozens of Ming soldiers laughing.
Later, this Bayala was stripped naked and hung at the head of the city, the ghost cried wolf, Yao San was ready to freeze to death this Jiannu white-armored soldier, Mang Gurtai was furious when he saw that his relatives were suffering from calculations, and ordered the siege of the city, and the chickens and dogs were not left after the city was broken.
There are two or three thousand well-trained villagers in Funing City, and they are certainly not the opponents of Jiannu and one Jiala in the field, but these villagers come to defend the city, and it is in vain for Jiannu to attack ten Jiala without artillery.
Jiannu doesn't have siege equipment, and they are not good at siege, after all, they have only been civilized for a short time, and it is good to be able to understand the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, where can they force too much.
Jiannu temporarily forced the Han people to carry shoddy ladders to prepare for the siege of the city, and there were artillery in the small city of Funing, and there were flowering shells produced by the Huang family, and the artillery was all trained by the Huang family, and they were specially aimed at the Jiannu who supervised the war.
At the head of Funing City, a wooden curtain was erected to prevent the ejection of feather arrows, which was made of grass, cloth, wood, leather and other materials to make a large piece of things, which was provoked and hung outside the city wall to buffer the projectiles.
The light feather arrows thrown by the Jiannu infantry archers risked their lives to break into the city of Funing and threw them with their foot bows, jingling and nailing on the wooden planks of the wooden curtains, which were somewhat similar to the arrows borrowed by grass boats, and had no lethal effect on the Ming army at the head of the city.
The Jiannubu archers found the clue, and changed to get closer to some heavy arrows to shoot directly, who suffered more from the bow and arrow and the fire gun?
Yao San and Zhou Fang both had double-barreled short guns and more than 20 flintlock pistols, so the 300 lead bullets of Lu Mi guns at the head of the city were mixed with Mini bullets that bit flesh, and the first wave of Jiannu's attack was declared a failure by killing and wounding more than 100 people.
The Xiangyong guarding Funing only had fifty or sixty casualties, and there were not many fatalities, after all, the defenders of the city were well prepared, and the Xiangyong who shot at the head did not have face armor, and they used leather hats to cover their heads and faces tightly.
Jiannu couldn't shoot directly at close range, and the power of the arrows shot in fifty or sixty steps was much smaller, and even if the villagers were hit by arrows in the face, after passing through the protective objects, most of them were full of peach blossoms on their faces, and they were not fatal.
