Thanks to Chen Xinyou's order to set fire to the chaos, the Qing army did not notice that the Ming army had entered the city from the Qingbo Gate, and the streets were full of panicked civilians and soldiers who helped to extinguish the fire, they were shouting, screaming, and the noise of the noise enveloped the entire city, and also obscured the military operations in the dark night.

The soldiers and horses led by Su Yan rushed straight to the Yamen of the Political Envoy and other divisions, and before the officials on duty could react, they saw a group of Ming soldiers armed with rifles running towards them murderously, and those officials didn't think about it, they turned around and ran back to the yamen and closed the gate, as if this would be able to block the Ming army outside.

They obviously underestimated the Ming army, under Su Yan's order, the hand mortar artillery raised the hand mortar in their hands, and fired grenades towards the gate of the yamen and the high wall, and the officials inside were directly blown up to cry dad and mother, people turned over on their backs, and the vermilion gate was also blackened by gunsmoke, and then, the riflemen stepped forward quickly, and sent their comrades up in the way of stacking arhats, and several soldiers climbed into the high wall, opened the gate, and let many soldiers rush in.

After they rushed in, the Qing court officials who heard the movement and ran out looked at the Ming soldiers who seemed to be like divine soldiers descending from the sky, and chose to kneel and beg without hesitation.

As the so-called soldiers are fast, Su Yan took down the political envoy of Bu, and learned that Li Shutai was in the governor's department from the mouth of the political envoy of Zuobu in Zhejiang who surrendered, so he ordered them to be cleared and put into the prison, and he ran quickly towards the governor's department with his soldiers, intending to capture Li Shutai before he reacted - as the so-called capture of the thief and capture the king first, as long as Li Shutai can be captured, the Qing army has lost its commander, and it will naturally become a mess of scattered sand.

However, when Li Shutai was changing into armor and preparing to go to the city wall, he heard an explosion from the side of the political envoy, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly ordered someone to go to check the situation, and he ordered someone to quickly prepare horses and transfer the Eight Banners Army stationed near the governor's ministry to guard his own safety.

When the people he sent out stumbled back, he heard the news that stunned him: the Ming army had entered the city at some point, and was coming towards the governor's headquarters!

"Not good! It must be the guards of Qingbo Gate who defected to the enemy and opened the city gate to let the Ming army enter the city! Li Shutai quickly figured out the truth, except for the surrender of the Qingbo Gate defenders, he could not find a second reasonable explanation.

At this moment, he saw a team with torches running quickly in the direction of the political envoy department, he didn't have time to think about it, he quickly turned his horses, and ran to the garrison of the Eight Banners Army with his own soldiers, intending to dispatch soldiers and horses to suppress the Ming army that entered the city.

As soon as Li Shutai left on the front foot, Su Yan led the troops to the gate of the governor's department on the back foot, and the Ming army rushed directly into the compound, caught a few slaves who did not have time to escape, and tortured Li Shutai's whereabouts from the latter's mouth.

After learning that Li Shutai actually ran to transfer troops, Su Yan ordered people to move all the sundries in the courtyard of the governor's department to the entrance of the street, form a temporary bunker, and block every intersection leading to the governor's ministry, intending to meet Li Shutai's Eight Banners Army in a dignified manner on the side of the governor's ministry, and light fires around the street to provide a view.

Soon after they almost emptied the governor's ministry and built a temporary bunker, Li led the Eight Banners Army to this side, Su Yan only heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the corner of the street, and the next moment, a large number of cavalry rushed out from the corner of the street.

The burst of gunfire brought Li Shutai back to the morning of the Battle of Qiancang Mountain, and he recalled how the Eight Banners Army fell one after another under the fire of the Ming army's gunners, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and hurriedly ordered to stop, retreat, and think about how to rush through the Ming army's volley.

Soon he came up with an idea, he ordered the Eight Banners to turn over and dismount, break into the surrounding houses, remove the heavy quilts, bed boards and tables of those ordinary people's homes, wet the quilts with water, and spread several layers of quilts on each plank, so as to defend against the Ming army's firearms.

After all this was done, the Eight Banners infantry in groups of three, with a shout on the wooden plank, rushed out of the corner, after they rushed out, the Ming army in the front row immediately pulled the trigger, shot at those wooden boards, the wet quilt can indeed slow down the force of the projectile, the rifles were stunned to find that although the projectile they shot pierced through the layers of quilts, it was stuck on the wooden board behind, and it was really blocked.

Su Yan, who was supervising the battle in the back, saw this, his heart sank, he didn't expect that the Qing army would be ready to deal with it in such a short time, but this did not mean that he was exhausted, he waved his right hand, and the soldiers holding the mortar cannon immediately stepped forward, set up the mortar cannon, aimed at the enemy one hundred and fifty steps away, as long as they entered the range of fire, they would send the grenade out.

On the other side, the soldiers of the Eight Banners saw that they could actually restrain the sharp firearms of the Ming army in such a way, and they were also ecstatic for a while, so they accelerated their pace, hoping to quickly close the distance between the two sides to start hand-to-hand combat, but just after they entered the range of the mortar cannon, they only heard a sound different from the firearm shooting from the front, and before they could figure out what this sound was, dozens of round things fell from the top of their heads, smashed on the quilt and then fell to the ground, and they stepped over.

In the next second, the grenade exploded, and these Eight Banners soldiers were immediately blown up, and the fragments of the explosion scratched their lower bodies, and the Eight Banners soldiers screamed and dropped the plank, fell to the ground and groaned in pain, and the soldiers behind looked at their comrades who fell to the ground in front of them in horror, and they didn't dare to continue the attack for a while.

At the same time as the battle in the city began, on the other side, under the leadership of Chen Xinyou, the Ming army bypassed Wushan, and encountered a number of Qing troops rushing to the city wall to help, and the Qing army they encountered did not care at first when they saw the friendly troops who were also braided, and thought that they were supporting the city gate with them, but after Chen Xinyou took the initiative to show his fangs, he was directly stunned, and he didn't figure out the situation for a while, and thought that they were fighting with the Ming army who entered the city.

Therefore, the Qing army general Zuo led by him hurriedly and loudly stated his identity, and his shouting did not stop the "friendly army" on the opposite side, but saw a group of people in red robes running over with firearms, and crackling at them is a volley.

At this moment, they finally reacted and charged towards the opposite side in anger, but the firepower of the Ming army was very fierce, and after being hit by three volleys, the disheartened Qing army left the corpses on the ground and fled in confusion.

Subsequently, the Ming army continued to rush to the Fengshan Gate, the closer they were to the city gate, the more they could hear the shouting and killing sound outside the city gate, the fire that burst when the artillery opened almost illuminated the night outside the city gate, the Ming army outside the Fengshan Gate launched a fierce offensive under the leadership of Su Ci, the shield car, the battering ram, and the ladder car were all handy, and the Ming army roared and braved the fire of the defenders to rush to the city wall, and set up a cloud ladder on the city wall.

Just when they were about to rush behind the buttocks of the defenders of Fengshan Gate, they encountered a Qing army head-on, and with the help of the torches held on the opposite side, Chen Xinyou instantly recognized the identity of the other party - it was the source of Gushan Ezhen Liu.
