Chapter 888: Ningbo City II

This scholar hasn't figured out why there is such a flip, obviously the soldiers have already come to the city, and it is clear that the city of Ningbo has been surrounded by water.

Why is Zhang Jing still like this.

Zhang Jing said: "Come to the person, behead this person to report, yes, you don't need to give it to me again, just send it directly to His Royal Highness King Yong, and tell him that if you want Ningbo City, behead me Zhang Jing first." ”

Zhang Jing already regarded himself as a dead man, so he naturally didn't care about offending King Yong fiercely. It's a pity that this person wants to eat with a three-inch tongue, but he doesn't want to, and he lost the head of Liuyang for the first time.

When Wang Zhi saw this human head, he still had an incredible look on his face.

Wang Zhi, who had long been accustomed to life and death, waved his hand and asked people to take off the head and bury it, so he pressed his sword and said loudly: "Siege." ”

The first to attack was above the river.

The city wall to the south of Ningbo directly faces the mouth of the three rivers, and the waters here are open and can carry large ships, and Wang Zhi dropped a Dongyong-type battleship from Huang Shilong's side.

A good big ship, as soon as it arrived, stood almost the entire main river.

Fortunately, the Yongjun Naval Division now has the absolute upper hand, blocking the river and blocking the water, and even the upper reaches of the Yao River are guarded by Dongyong's fleet, otherwise, in this small ditch that is not even convenient to turn, it is simply a dead land.

However, under the cover of the army, there is no need to worry about the safety of the surroundings at all, just as a water battery, it is much simpler

When he stopped, the guns began to roar.

The range of the Franc cannon is simply out of reach, and all that can be hit is a bronze cannon.

There was a loud bang, and one cannonball after another slammed down on the city wall.

The city wall of Ningbo is in disrepair, although it looks majestic and neat, but in fact, in many places, there are loosening and hidden dangers. But under Dongyong's cannon, everything is hidden.

"It was like a landslide, and countless clods of earth peeled off from the top of the city and piled up into a mound of earth under the city.

All the soldiers at the head of the city did not dare to stand firm, and felt that the whole city had a crumbling feeling.

Seeing this, Zhang Jing didn't have any good way.

Zhang Jing had nothing in his hands that could reach the artillery of this battleship, but the only thing that could be fortunate was that no matter how bad the Ningbo city wall was, it was not muddy. Moreover, in the Yao River, there is only one warship, and there are at most ten copper cannons concentrated on it.

If you want to bombard the city of Ningbo, you have to bombard it for a long time for a day or two.

Zhang Jing got out of the city, he immediately gathered the people of the city, and began to build a city wall again after the city wall, this wall does not need to be too high, it does not need to be too strong, there is no need to consider anti-artillery, as long as it is considered to defend against infantry attacks.

Even if the Ningbo city wall was blown down, it was a large mound, which was caused by the characteristics of the Ningbo city wall itself. If nothing else, China's city walls are trapezoidal, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and even if they are blown down, a large amount of earthwork is piled up, which is an obstacle in itself.

Then behind this large mound of earth, build a city wall, which does not need to be very high, to block the next attack of the Yong army, because most of the artillery in this era is aimed directly, even the Dongyong artillery.

There are ruins of this city wall blocking the sight of the Yong army, and the cannonballs can't hit the second city wall at all.

It's just that Zhang Jing underestimated the local forces in Ningbo City from afar.

"I can't go on anymore." A person said: "I asked Lord Xiao Xu, as long as we surrender in Kaicheng, Ningbo City Neiqiu will not commit any crimes, I believe everyone also knows Dongyong's military discipline, but if you insist on following Zhang Jing to defend the city, and finally have a red eye, even King Yong himself can't stop the people below from wanting to do something." At that time, it is not impossible that no one will be left in Ningbo City. ”

This is relatively old, and he seems to be a gentry in a foreign suit. He was also a member of the Xu family and used to do business with Old Man Xu.

However, after the Xu family voted in Dongyong, the entire Xu family was transferred to the official family of Yongguo, the old man Xu had four sons, the eldest son was in charge of Shaofu, the second son died in battle, three sons and four sons, one was a professor in Dongyongfu, although the official was not big, but it was extremely noble, and the other was in Dongyongdang County. Don't look at the small officials, the qualifications are very solid, and they have been working at the grassroots level for many years, obviously they are aimed at what Zhu Houhuang said, if they don't go through the county, they can't be a pavilion. This sentence went to the position of Prime Minister of Dongyong.

Old man Xu was also very satisfied with this ending, and went to Dongyong early. It's not about enjoying happiness, but knowing that the Xu family and Dongyong are inseparable. I didn't dare to stay in Daming for a long time, lest Daming and Dongyong turn their faces in the future, and he would become a burden to King Yong in the middle.

Of course, Old Man Xu went to Dongyong, not everyone in the Xu family went, this was the old shopkeeper of Old Man Xu back then, the Xu family stopped doing business, and Old Man Xu simply transferred the business to him.

He had the support of the Xu family and became a member of the Ningbo gentry smoothly. Of course, the foundation is extremely shallow. If it weren't for the support of the Xu family, he wouldn't have been able to do it at all.

However, his words really frightened these gentry.

"King Yong won't slaughter the city." A gentleman said tremblingly.

"I just said that sometimes you can't stop killing red eyes. For example, in the battle in the south, both sides were killed by red eyes, and there were no prisoners left at all, if King Yong hadn't found out earlier, half of the Zhejiang army would have been killed, but even so? Now is the time when the martial arts are in power, and King Yong expects them to fight the world for him, and the law is not responsible, but it is just a reprimand and a fine of silver. You don't want this to happen in Ningbo. His eyes swept over, and no one dared to look up at him.

"However, will His Royal Highness King Yongwang be able to win this battle? In the future, the court will call again, how should we explain? ”

"yes,"

For a moment, all the gentry sighed.

That's why they're struggling.

They didn't want the war to break out in Ningbo, and they didn't want to offend the imperial court, let alone the king of Yong, and all parties were not offended, which meant that all parties were offended.

"Actually, it's not that we want to go against the imperial court, but that the imperial court has already lost in Ningbo, and Zhang Jing is just surviving. In the face of the artillery of the Yongjun, we didn't have any success at all. If I can give up the money, I am willing to pay a million taels and ask Mr. Zhang to leave. But Zhang Jing will never agree. So we can only make this decision, and it is just to keep our fortune in the troubled times. The shopkeeper Xu sighed and said: "I have a note, since you don't want to be the first bird, I Xu someone did this thing, but since I have done it, this is everyone's business after all, and I hope you will turn a blind eye, and by the way, help me cover the eyeliner of that one." How is it? ”

No one spoke.

Default is also a license.

With the cooperation of these local snakes, Zhang Jing suddenly became blind and deaf.

Zhang Jing is not incapable, but Zhang Jing's foundation in Ningbo is too shallow, he has only been in Ningbo for a few days, and in these few days, instead of making political achievements, he has been involved in Ningbo City, and the sorrow and joy are continuous.

Maybe when Zhang Jing attacked the Yongjun camp under Zhang Jing's urging, one life and two lives were not enough for Zhang Jing to blink his eyes, but every life was crucial for the people in Ningbo City, they all had their own families and relatives.

Although Ningbo City cannot be said to be filial piety, it is not bad.

In this way, Zhang Jing doesn't know much about the gentry, otherwise he wouldn't have forgotten the shopkeeper Xu, too many soldiers died in battle, which also made Zhang Jing greatly offend the people.

No matter who killed the people, you took them out, and when they left, they were a living person, and when they came back, they became a corpse.

I don't know how many family members are full of pain in their hearts.

In Ningbo, Zhang Jing can be said to have deviated from morality, so under the contact of the shopkeeper Xu, everything happened overnight. When Zhang Jing was still asleep, something happened to the Water Gate, and Yongjun took a trough boat and entered Ningbo City directly through the Water Gate.

When the news spread, all the local soldiers in Ningbo surrendered one after another, as if overnight, the mountains and rivers changed. ()
