There is no Zheng Jiajun at the head of the city, and the artillery battalion can shell recklessly.

The cannon roared, and the red-hot iron ball whirred into the city wall.

The city wall was recessed with a large hole, and the stone wall was cracked. Broken stones slammed into the ground with a crackling sound.

With each round of artillery bombardment, Marseille, who was standing not far from the city, felt a shaking.

The south gate of Nanjing City was crumbling under the artillery bombardment of Zheng Jiajun at any cost, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time.

Marsai scolded anxiously: "This damned artillery, where did the traitor find a powerful firearm!" ”

Jiang Guozhu replied: "The Zheng family started with sea trade, probably bought it from Franco!" ”

Marsai heard the fierce exclamation, "Those damn ghosts, damn it. Seeing profit and forgetting righteousness, as long as they have money, they are afraid that they will dare to sell their mothers! ”

Hearing Marseille's comment, several generals beside him smiled dryly.

Guan Xiaozhong said, "My lord, it's not a way to go on like this! On the first day, we had 6 or 7,000 casualties, and if we continue to wear them down, the defenders in the city will be exhausted sooner or later! And once there is no strong city, it will be even more difficult for us to confront Zheng Jiajun! ”

When many generals heard this, they couldn't help but feel sad.

Once upon a time, the Eight Banners cavalry of the Qing Dynasty was so mighty!

Those weak Ming soldiers did not dare to go out of the city to fight in the field, so they could only rely on the city walls and firearms to confront our Qing Dynasty.

Now the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty have been reduced to only daring to stay in the city and not dare to go out of the city to fight, which is simply a big joke in the world!

Marseille drank in dismay, "I know this. Damn, even if the city falls, it's a big deal to let it in and fight, even if it dies, you have to cut off a big piece of Zheng Chenggong's meat! ”

Marseille was determined to fight to the death, and as soon as the words came out, he immediately reacted that there were a lot of Han generals in Nanjing.

Marseille raised his head and looked around at a few Han generals beside him, and hurriedly said: "The old man, as a general, has received the emperor's grace, and swears to live and die with Nanjing City. You don't have to go to the trouble with the old man, when the city is broken, break out, and leave it to serve the court with a useful body! ”

The Han general beside him heard the busy chorus shouting: "We swear to live and die with the general!" ”

When Marseille heard this, he hurriedly shouted: "Good, good, good, the Qing Dynasty will not treat you loyal ministers badly!" As long as we are united, why worry about the thief who will not be destroyed! ”

Seeing Marseille's desperate attempt to save morale, the generals vowed to follow Marseille.

But what these Han generals say, not to mention that Marseille will not believe it, even if he is loyal to himself, he will not believe it.

I'm afraid that when they see that the situation is not good, they will immediately turn around and arrest themselves and ask Zheng Chenggong for credit.

At the beginning, he followed the Qing army to the south, but Guan Xiaozhong personally participated in the tragic massacres such as the Ten Days in Yangzhou.

After the other people broke the city, they surrendered, and they might be fine, but he may not be there.

In order to calm the anger of the people in Jiangnan and win the hearts of the people, Zheng Chenggong will not spare a surrenderer.

If it were Lao Tzu, I was afraid that it would be the same.

Guan Allegiance didn't dare to gamble, and in order to save his life, he decided to let it go.

Guan Xiaozhong said resolutely, "General, the subordinate has a plan that may make Zheng Chenggong dare not bombard the city!" ”

As Allegiance muttered a few words in Marseille's ear, Marseille wondered, "Is this okay?" ”

Guan Xiaozhong said firmly: "Others may not be able to, but it is feasible to deal with Zheng Chenggong!" ”

Marseille pondered for a moment, and quickly decided, "Just do it your way!" ”

In the south and east of the city, there is already a city wall that is about to collapse.

Just when Zheng Jiajun was about to cheer and prepare to launch the final onslaught, the sharp-eyed Gan Hui shouted: "General, look! ”

Zheng Chenggong hurriedly looked up, his eyes cracked and shouted: "Traitor, dare to do this!" ”

And I saw a multitude of people surging up from the city. There were men and women, each with ropes tied around their waists,

These civilians were blown up in the shelling and died on the spot.

Knowing that they would die tragically in the artillery, few civilians turned around and fled.

At the head of the city, the people knelt on the ground, kowtowing incessantly, and their foreheads were stained red with blood.

These people cried over and over again, shouting over and over again: "My lord, please, don't attack the city again!" ”

Shouting and shouting, tears streaming down his eyes.

The crying of the people was even louder, and it could be clearly transmitted to Zheng Chenggong's ears from a few hundred meters away.

Zheng Chenggong heard the busy shouting: "Ceasefire, hurry up and cease fire!" ”

The soldiers beside Zheng Chenggong also hurriedly shouted: "Ceasefire, the general has an order to cease fire immediately!" ”

With the general's order being delivered, the artillery battalion soon stopped shelling.

Zheng Chenggong stepped forward immediately, and the guard battalion, Yao Qisheng and others hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "General, danger!" ”

Zheng Chenggong shouted sternly: "Get out of the way!" ”

"General!"

"Get out of the way!" Zheng Chenggong rode forward.

When the soldiers of the guard battalion saw it, they could only raise iron shields to protect Zheng Chenggong, vigilant against the actions of the Qing army at the head of the city.

As long as there is danger, they will immediately protect Zheng Chenggong and forcibly pull him back.

Zheng Chenggong was enthusiastic, and he didn't care about his own safety, so he directly rushed away from the city wall about 300 meters and stopped.

Zheng Chenggong shouted angrily: "Zheng Chenggong is here!" Marseille dog thief, come out to me! ”

A string of wicked laughter sounded above the city, and a Han man at the head of the city stood up and shouted: "Ha, ha, ha! Isn't this the unparalleled national surname of benevolence and righteousness? Why haven't you quit the army? Do you really care about the lives of these people for the sake of a city? ”

Chen Yonghua, who came over, saw it and hurriedly shouted in a low voice to Zheng Chenggong: "General, this person is the commander of the Qing hypocritical command!" ”

Zheng Chenggong drank: "Guan is loyal, as a Han Chinese, you saw the Manchu Qing Dynasty brutalized." Dare not to hinder it, and dare to help the abuse! Hurry up and let these people go, we have fought with real knives and guns! “

Guan Loyalty's ploy was originally his own plan, how could he let the people go because of Zheng Chenggong's words or two.

Guan Xiaozhong smiled and said, "These people have come to defend the city voluntarily, and they don't welcome you as a robber. If you dare to attack the city of Nanjing again, they will live and die with the city walls! ”

Zheng Chenggong was angry when he heard it, he had seen shameless, but he had never seen such shamelessness. He used the people under his rule as a shield for arrows.

"Pledge allegiance! Don't think you can hold on to the Lord. Your reinforcements have been wiped out by me, how long can your soldiers and horses in Nanjing City be able to hold on? If you know each other, surrender immediately, Lao Tzu will let you go, otherwise you will die without a place to be buried! ”

When Guan Xiaozhong heard that Zheng Chenggong was willing to let him go, he was a little moved.

But as soon as I thought that as long as Zheng Chenggong broke the city, there was no need to force him to ask, and a large group of people would confess themselves. I have sacrificed all the poison schemes, and I can't get off the boat at all.

Guan Xiaozhong gritted his teeth and shouted: "Don't talk flatteringly, you want to disturb the heart of our army." Let me tell you, I have already received the news of my Qing reinforcements, and I will be able to come to the rescue in less than ten days! And, I'll tell you. As long as you dare to attack the city, these people will swear to fight you to the death! Hahaha......"

Hearing that these dog slaves are the dogs who swear to be Manchu to the death, they don't care about the lives of the people.

Zheng Chenggong shouted: "I swear that if I capture you alive, I will be executed by Ling Chi and punish your nine clans!" ”

Hearing Zheng Chenggong's shout, the soldiers of the guard battalion also shouted in unison: "Ling Chi will be executed, punish your nine clans!" ”

The soldiers of the Zheng family army also shouted in person: "Ling Chi will be executed, and you will be punished by the nine clans."

Ling Chi will be executed, and you will be punished by the nine clans!

Ling Chi will be executed, and you will be punished by the nine clans!

Ling Chi will be executed, and you will be punished by the nine clans!

……

The roar of rage reached the ears of Guan Xiaozhong,

Ling Chi was executed! Zhu Jiu Clan!

Guan Xiaozhong was frightened, his whole body trembled, and his face turned pale. He regretted it very much, why did he faint at that time and come up with this poisonous plan!

If not, even if the city is broken and you surrender, there will always be a glimmer of life!

Even if he surrenders now, Zheng Chenggong is willing to let himself go, and the people in this city will not let him go. (To be continued.) )
