Since the defeat of the siege again, the Qing army outside Ganzhou City has not taken any major action for several days, but has only been on guard and resting in the camp, preparing for the best time for the next attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Tulai was also helpless to make such a decision, after all, the Ming army in Ganzhou Town was not scattered in a single fight like the rabble he had encountered before, but was well-armed and morale-high, and after these few victories, it became more and more arrogant. If he still attacks rashly like that, even if his army invades Ganzhou, it will definitely suffer heavy losses, but how can it be cost-effective to lose the already scarce Manchurian warriors for the sake of a Ganzhou?

After thinking about it, Thurai felt that he was still careless. After kicking the iron plate several times, he remembered a few words from a Han soldier book he had read, which seemed to have this sentence, which roughly meant: In a siege battle, the offensive and defensive forces are at least five times more than the defender to win the battle. At first, Turai was very unimpressed with this statement, and when he led his army to the city of Ganzhou, he still had this attitude. With his consistent experience, with thousands of Manchurian soldiers and more than 10,000 green battalion soldiers with sufficient food and salary, defeating more than 10,000 Ming troops defending the city is not a matter of being captured? But what happened later was beyond his expectations.

In just three days, the Green Battalion lost three or four thousand people, and the Manchurian and Han Eight Banner soldiers also paid the price of hundreds of casualties. When the battle was fought like this, there was not much left of Turai's previous contempt, and he was not ready to continue to fill it with human life, so he decided to think of another countermeasure and wait for a good opportunity, otherwise the city would not be captured by then, but he would fill himself in.

After all, the persuasion of Tulai, which had placed some hope in him, was not successful. Three days later, one morning, the Ming army threw more than a dozen bloody human heads from the south gate of the town. Without exception, these heads were all made by Ke Yongsheng who had been planted in the city before. Not only that, the Ming army also intercepted the carrier pigeon that Ke Yongsheng used to communicate with these details, and used the carrier pigeon to send a note written by Pang Yue to the Qing military camp, and wrote: What kind of trick is there, even if it is used, I can't wait.

Looking at the contemptuous and provocative note in front of him and the small head picked up by the scout, Thurai was so angry that he split the case in front of him in half.

This plan failed, and a dog-headed military division under Li Yingzong offered another plan: it is precisely because of the strong city that the Ming army can be so arrogant, and I am afraid that it will still be defeated by the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty in the field battle, if they can be led out of the decisive battle outside the city, it is not without the opportunity to win or even take advantage of the victory to break the city. I heard that Pang Yue took great care of the local people during his tenure as the commander-in-chief of Ganzhou, and if he could capture a large number of people as hostages to threaten the Ming army, Pang Yue would probably lead the army out of the city to fight in anger. In this way, it will greatly increase the chances of victory of the Qing Dynasty.

Li Yingzong thought that this idea was good, and hurriedly reported it to Turai.

When Turai heard this, he sighed in his heart: This is the sad thing about Minggou! Despite the large population, there are still so many scum who are willing to betray their clansmen, how can they not be defeated?

Exclamation to exclamation, but Thurai still thought it was a good idea. Although Pang Yue is a powerful character, he is by no means without weaknesses. If he could really capture a large number of women and children and kill and humiliate him in front of him, he would definitely be angered. As long as you can lure it out of the city, everything will be fine. Even if he can turn a blind eye, the brainless officials and people in the city will also see it, and all kinds of impeachment and criticism are enough to ruin Pang Yue's reputation.

Now that you've found the enemy's weakness, let's stab the knife hard! Turai immediately arranged for men to go to the vicinity to arrest the Ming people.

Long before the Qing army arrived at the city of Ganzhou, Pang Yue, with the cooperation of Qian Lu and other local officials, sent many people to move all the people in the villages near Ganzhou City to the city. But the space in the city is limited after all, for those villages and market towns dozens of miles away, Pang Yue can only send people to send early warning information, declaring that a big war is coming, and letting the people go to a safe place to take refuge. …,

This gave Jiannu and the traitors a chance. After searching for the people near Ganzhou City to no avail, Turai sent people to search farther away, and after two or three days of tossing, he finally captured hundreds of people from dozens of miles away who had no time to flee their homes, mainly old and young women and children, and prepared to provoke Pang Yue out of the city.

In the early morning of 20 August, there was a commotion in the direction of the Qing army camp opposite the south gate of the town, and a large number of shadowy figures poured in the direction of the city gate.

The soldiers of the Ming army defending the city thought that the Qing army was about to attack again, and they all held their weapons and waited for them. However, as the crowd of people moving forward got closer and closer to the city gate, the soldiers of the Ming army at the head of the city finally saw the details, it was actually a group of Jiannu pushing hundreds of Ming people forward. Some of the old people and children's legs and feet were a little slower, and the Manchurian Jiannu who escorted them swung down their leather whips and sticks. Along the way, the people's cries for help continued.

Seeing the scene in front of them, the soldiers of Ganzhou Town at the head of the city were all stunned. Especially those local soldiers in Jiangxi, when they heard the familiar local sound, they couldn't help but think of their relatives at home, and then when they contacted the shameful behavior of the Jiannu, almost all of them were angry. When the news reached the city, the soldiers of the other battalions were also filled with righteous indignation. For a time, the non-commissioned officers asked the officers for battle, and the junior officers asked the officers to fight, and the shouts of the people demanded to go out of the city to rescue the people.

Pang Yue, who got the news, also hurriedly climbed to the south gate of the town.

At this time, Jiannu drove the people to stop a mile away, and then more than ten horsemen rushed over and shouted. Considering what happened to him last time to persuade him to surrender, this time Turai did not send Manchuria Jiannu over again, but sent more than a dozen green battalion soldiers over. These green battalion soldiers were naturally not as arrogant as Manchurian Jiannu, they just stopped outside the range of the flintlock pistol and shouted, but the content of the shout still made the Ming army angry: "Listen to the puppet Ming army in the city!" If they don't surrender, these hypocrites will have no one to live! ”

After shouting, the Green Battalion soldiers spun their horses and ran back. At the same time, as if to demonstrate to the Ming army, the Jiannu pushed dozens of civilians to the front of the team and pressed them to the ground, their hands falling with their knives, and the splattered blood stained a large area of the land red. Seeing the tragedy in front of them, those who had lost their loved ones fell to the ground crying. And those Manchurian slaves seemed to be even more proud, laughing while the house was so whirling that they were pointing at the city. There were even some Jiannu who pulled out some young women from the ranks of the people, pressed them to the ground and began to humiliate them, and the screams and wails of the women and the lewd laughter of the Jiannu pierced people's eardrums.

"Bang!" Pang Yue slammed his fist against the battlement, and he didn't care about the blood flowing from his fingers. Be furious! His mood can only be summed up in these two words, his teeth are already clucking, and the muscles in his face are constantly twitching. He had already known about Jiannu's madness, but what he saw with his own eyes today made him even more angry! There is such a scum in the world who is inferior to beasts, and there is no way to do it in a dignified battle, but he turns to anger the people! Such a beast that destroys human nature, the people of the world should punish it!

Turai, Lee Yingzong, Ke Yongsheng! Sooner or later, I will make you pay for your deeds today! The enraged Pang Yue gritted his teeth and swore.
