Chapter 215: The Battle in Jiangxi (End)
Li Ran saw that more than half of the Zhenwu Army had entered Nanchang City, and immediately ordered all the officers and soldiers of the First Division of the Zhenwu Army to enter Nanchang City. At the same time www.biquge.info they were warmly welcomed by the common people, and the eyes of every soldier of the 1st Division were grateful. In their eyes, it's all worth it. The soldiers of the Zhenwu Army, under the command of their respective commanders, immediately began to pursue the deserters of the Qing army, and at the same time he quickly reasoned with the Manchu fanatics who resisted to the death.
The rout of the Qing army indicated that the first division of the Zhenwu Army had taken Nanchang City, the capital of Jiangxi Province, and from then on there was no force in Jiangxi Province that could hinder the first division of the Zhenwu army.
Li Ran also entered the city later, Li Ran saw that the first division of the Zhenwu Army had already controlled all the key points in the city, and the granary, treasury, and official offices were all under the control of the first division, leaving no trace behind.
Li Ran looked at the fiery eyes of the people, and immediately ordered the opening of the warehouse to release grain, although it was only a third, but the people were all kind and happy, and the mood was extremely excited, in their eyes, the army of Zhenwu Army was the best army, and it was the army that the people could really rely on.
Then Li Ran ordered that the troops be divided into six routes and make every effort to conquer the remaining places in Jiangxi Province, and all the troops of the first division of the Zhenwu Army began to embark on the journey again after resting in Nanchang City for two days. But they don't have the slightest complaint in their hearts, all of this is what they are willing to pay, and in their hearts, only in this way can they truly repay the kindness of the prince and the teacher.
The officers and men of the First Division of the Zhenwu Army strode in all directions, this time according to Li Ran's plan, they could definitely end the war in Jiangxi within ten days, once the war in Jiangxi was over, and even without waiting for the war in Jiangxi to end, Li Ran would lead the army into Zhejiang Province and go straight to Hangzhou.
Now the first division of the Zhenwu Army is under the assignment of Li Ran, and it is already divided into six routes, advancing towards the east, north and west of Nanchang City, in which Li Ran leads the main army to the east, Li Ran's purpose is of course very simple, Li Ran must take the eastern provinces, and then immediately wave the army eastward, enter Zhejiang Province, and with the help of Xiaomei and the Ziyi Army, directly take Hangzhou Mansion, in that case, the southern provinces of Zhejiang may be confused and choose to surrender directly, without the slightest resistance. This is undoubtedly the most perfect strategy for the Northern Expedition of the Zhenwu Army, and at the same time, Li Ran has completed his most important task.
Compared with Wang Jie and Song Mingren, Li Ran's task is the heaviest, but Li Ran is confident to complete it, because Li Ran has a lot of experience in the war of this era, which is not comparable to the other two. As for why Li Zhongju was with Song Naruto, it was because Li Zhongju still had his own purpose.
A few days later, Jiangxi Province was not taken by the Zhenwu army of several prefectures, and at the same time fell into a panic, they did not expect that Li Ran would have such a great ability, it only took one day to capture Nanchang City, to be precise, the Zhenwu army only took less than an hour to capture Nanchang City, which is a very terrible thing.
Then, the governors of the prefectures immediately began to surrender or flee to the north with their troops, because they had been frightened, and they didn't dare to face the personality army of the Zhenwu Army at all, this is the army that surrenders without a fight, Li Ran did it, Li Ran did it with his own strength, because Li Ran is really strong and strong.
Guangxin Mansion is the easternmost province of Jiangxi Province, Guangxin Mansion is a very good place because of the terrain is very good, and at the same time in the subtropical climate, grain crops are very good here whether they grow or harvest, this is Guangxin Mansion, Guangxin Mansion is also a relatively wealthy province in Jiangxi Province.
At this time, Li Ran led the army to the city of Guangxin Prefecture, but the governor of Guangxin Prefecture was a typical old stubborn, and he said that he would not surrender to Li Ran and the Zhenwu army, so only war could solve everything.
The governor of Guangxin Mansion stood on the city wall calmly, staring at the commander of the other party under the city, he couldn't think of why the Zhenwu army could break through many places at such a speed, it was simply terrible, but the governor of Guangxin Mansion would not be afraid, because in his eyes, he really couldn't think of what method Li Ran used to break through the city, then there must be a way to block the other party's advance speed, Guangxin Prefecture Zhizhou looked at Li Ran below, and said unashamedly, "You are Li Ran, who is known as the first general under the command of the anti-thief Li Zhongju." , the official sees that you are just like that, not very powerful, you have the ability to break through the Guangxin City of the house in three days. ”
Li Ran said lightly, "It doesn't matter who Ben will be, how much time Ben will spend to capture Guangxin City, but it has something to do with you, since you said three days, Ben Jiang will be more merciful this time, Ben will not attack the city today, Ben will come to attack the city tomorrow morning, I hope you can enjoy this last day." ”
After Li Ran finished speaking, he directly led the army to retreat, Li Ran had already decided to attack tonight, because Li Ran felt that only in this way could he protect the combat effectiveness of the first division of the Zhenwu Army and reduce losses, which was definitely the most correct approach.
With the retreat of Li Ran's army, the Qing army and Zhizhou in the city of Guangxin Mansion were full of a lot of confusion, but they were also very happy in their hearts. Although they thought that the Zhenwu Army would not be able to break through the city in a very short time, the Zhenwu Army did not choose to attack the city immediately, and they were really excited.
But what the Qing army didn't know was that Li Ran was ready, since Li Ran was determined to attack the city at night, then he would definitely choose to do it at night, Li Ran was a person who said he would do it without hesitation.
The night soon came, Li Ran led the army, quietly came to the north gate of Guangxin Fu City, Li Ran found that the north gate did not have much guarding force, and then Li Ran ordered a regiment of the second brigade of the first division of the Zhenwu Army to send the best company, holding an iron hook to climb the city wall, and the rest of the people waited quietly, they believed that the assault company could complete this task.
Sure enough, just a few minutes later, the north gate was opened, although the rest of the first division of the Zhenwu army rushed into the city, and immediately the first division of the Zhenwu army led itself under Li Ran's leadership and quickly took the city of Guangxinfu, everything was like a dream, the opponent did not expect Li Ran to make such a move, and in the end, many officials and the Qing army surrendered directly.
