Just when Su Yan looked at the map and was a little embarrassed, a Zheng army general sitting in the hall stood up and hugged his fists and said:

"General, the last general has something to say."

Su Yan's attention was attracted by this Zheng army general, he subconsciously glanced at Zhu Chenggong, but saw that the other party's brows were wrinkled without a trace, and quickly relaxed, Su Yan was curious in his heart, looked at the Zheng army general again, and asked first: "Dare to ask the name of the general?" ”

"The last general is Shi Lang, the left forward under the command of the country's surname." The general reported to himself.

"It's Shi Lang?"

Su Yan was slightly shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but look curiously at the middle-aged general in front of him, who saw Su Yan looking at himself with curious eyes, subconsciously looked down at his body, and after making sure that there was nothing strange on it, he looked up at Su Yan and asked, "General Su, do you know me?" ”

"No, I don't know." Su Yan said with a smile, he thought in his heart at the same time, when there is a chance later, he should remind Zhu Chenggong to avoid the recurrence of Shi Lang's regret.

"Your Excellency, what do you have in mind?"

Shi Lang wanted to ask again, but Zhu Chenggong interrupted him on the side and asked.

"After the Qing army captured Tong'an in the second year of Yongli, it slaughtered in the city, and the people in the city have long been grudging, and when our army attacks the city, it will definitely respond positively and attack the Qing army.

Shi Lang replied.

Su Yan didn't speak, looked at Zhu Chenggong, he was not familiar with this history, he only knew that Zhu Chenggong and the Qing army fought around Tong'an for several years in history, and Tong'an changed hands repeatedly, but with the poor military discipline of the Qing army, the possibility of being slaughtered after Tong'an fell is also very high......

Zhu Chenggong nodded, met Su Yan's gaze, and said, "That's true, if the people in the city are willing to respond, they will be stable." ”

Su Yan shook his head and said: "We can't pin our hopes on the people in the city, as soon as the battle starts, our army will divide its troops to attack the Gradually Hongmen (East Gate) and Gongxiu Gate (North Gate), and after most of the Qing army's troops are attracted to these two gates, we also hope that the surname of the country will launch an attack from Zhuzimen (South Gate), and our army will drag the Qing army as much as possible." ”

"This ......" Zhu Chenggong didn't expect Su Yan to make such a decision, he just wanted to refuse, but thinking of the weakness of his corporal and soldiers, he still nodded and agreed.

After the two reached a preliminary unification, Zhu Chenggong did not continue to talk about military affairs with Su Yan, after he sent one of his cadres away, he pretended to be unintentional and changed the topic, and asked: "An Guo is a talent, and he has passed the age of a weak crown, I don't know if the elders in the family can do a family business for you?" ”

"My father and mother unfortunately died under the Qing saber, and I didn't have time to speak for the younger generation." Su Yan didn't know why Zhu Chenggong suddenly asked this, he smiled bitterly and replied.

"My mother also died under the knife of the clear dog." Zhu Chenggong touched the armrest of the chair, and said hatefully: "I hate my father's treacherous schemes, falling into the hands of thieves, and I don't know life and death. ”

Su Yan was silent and didn't answer, how did he answer, he couldn't say: "Your father and your brother will be lobbyists for the Qing court in a few years, and I will persuade you to surrender." ”

If he says it, I'm afraid he will have a bad relationship with this short-tempered countryman.

Zhu Chenggong saw that Su Yan didn't answer, thinking that he remembered his deceased father and mother, so he comforted: "Anguo, let's mourn and change." ”

Su Yan nodded, Zhu Chenggong didn't continue on this topic, he had already got the answer he wanted to know, as long as Su Yan didn't get married for the time being, it would be easy to do, and then as long as he waited for Su Yan's performance in attacking Tong'an County, he could decide whether to marry him or not.

If Su Yan performs well, Zhu Chenggong is very happy to have such a brother-in-law, but if he doesn't perform well, then I'm sorry, not everyone can be his Zhu Chenggong's brother-in-law!

……

Because he was about to go on the expedition the next day, Zhu Chenggong did not set up a banquet to entertain Su Yan, but told him that after the recovery of Anxian County, he must invite Su Yan to Xiamen Island and entertain him well, but Su Yan was worried about Zhu Chenggong's history of attacking his clan uncle Zheng Lian not long ago, so he did not agree immediately.

There is no way, Zhu Chenggong has too many criminal records, first he beat Hao Shangjiu, who was also in the Ming army, last year, and then attacked Xiamen in July, just in case, Su Yan still has to be a little more wary of him.

Xiamen is not as good as here, his army is still stationed outside the town, Zhu Chenggong will lose both as soon as he attacks him, and when he arrives at Xiamen Island, Su Yan has nowhere to run if he really does it.

The next day, after breakfast, Su Yan led the army to march towards Tong'an County, and Zhu Chenggong's army gradually got on the warship and killed the Qing army's water village located at the mouth of Tong'an.

In the afternoon of the same day, Su Yan led a large army to the outside of Tong'an City, and divided the troops in the east and north of Tong'an to set up a position, before the shelling, he first sent people to the Qing army outside the range of bows and arrows to shout and persuade to surrender, but the Qing soldiers were unmoved, and forced the envoy to retreat with arrows, Su Yan could only order to fire at the city gate.

Just after the first round of shelling began, the Zheng army's messenger from the south was brought to Su Yan by the soldiers, bringing him good news - the Zheng army broke the Qing army's water village at the mouth of Xixi, and captured all the warships and Qing soldiers in the water village.

Subsequently, Zheng Jun went upriver against Xixi, until Jiang Xinzhou could no longer drive up, and then put his soldiers on the shore and marched on foot.

Knowing that the Zheng army was rushing to Tong'an, Su Yan was no longer worried, and continued to order twelve falcon cannons to bombard the city gate, while observing the reaction of the Qing army in the city.

The reaction of the Qing army was undoubtedly flustered.

Since the fall of Quanzhou, the Qing army of Tong'an has become a lone army, in the face of the joint offensive of Su Yan and the Zheng army, they naturally know that there is no chance of victory, but they surrendered to Su Yan, who is only a grass man outside the city, and the leading Qing army general Yang Qizhi is also unwilling, even if he wants to surrender, he must surrender to Zhu Chenggong, who is the Duke of Zhang.

However, Yang Qizhi overestimated the bearing threshold of his subordinates, and in less than a quarter of an hour after being continuously shelled by falcon artillery, the Qing army at the north gate finally couldn't bear it, and took the initiative to open the city gate to surrender to the righteous army, and the news was also sent to Su Yan for the first time.

It wasn't until the rattan battalion entered the city from the north gate that Yang Qizhi, who was sitting at the east gate, finally got the news, he wanted to transfer troops to intercept the rebels entering the city, but at this moment, the people in the city who had been resentful for a long time saw the rebels entering the city, and they couldn't hold back anymore, and they brought up all kinds of things that could be called weapons and walked on the streets, shouting and shouting at the Qing army in the city.

A group of angry civilians appeared behind them, and there was a fierce offensive of the righteous army in front, and the Qing army, which was already in a low mood in the city, could no longer bear it, and surrendered to the righteous army in a structured way - they did not dare to surrender to the crazy people, and they were afraid that there would not even be any quick bones left.
