The wind rises at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 76
Gu Kecheng stood on the tower of Nancheng with Yanling knife in his hand, looking at the scene in the city with a solemn expression.

The air was filled with an unpleasant smell of blood, and there were noisy human voices, but none of these could affect Gu Kecheng's mood.

According to the original plan, the group of them sneaked out of the camp.

There are not many guards and government servants guarding Fangfang City, and they easily solved them all.

Taking advantage of the cover of the night, he took the weapon that had been hidden in the city for a long time.

There were not many soldiers on duty, and they focused all their attention on the Ming army outside the city, and they were easily dealt with.

The fierce battle between Dongcheng and Beicheng attracted almost all the energy of the Ming army. They sent out a predetermined signal and immediately opened the city gate.

On the outskirts of Chunhua South City, more than [-] elite cavalry, who had already been ready to go, lit up torches, and headed straight towards Chunhua City along the foot of the mountain.

Everything went extremely smoothly, just like when the city gate was opened in Sanshui City.

It's just that when the Jingqi outside the city swarmed into the city and marched along the street, they were not as unimpeded as they were in Sanshui, causing chaos in the city.

Gu Kecheng suddenly saw three clusters of flames suddenly lit up on the streets of the south city of Chunhua.

And the flames cut across the only way to enter the city Jingqi.

……

As a county seat, Chunhua County has a limited population and a small scale.

The roads left between the squares and cities are only seven or eight meters wide, while the main street is more than ten meters wide.

A group of intruders who entered the city from the south city galloped on horseback, their eyes were shining red.

After breaking the city, as elite cavalry, they are eligible to give priority to the spoils in the city.

Holding the saber in his hand, Dai Cheng couldn't help licking his lips. He was lucky to break into Sanshui City, and ran into a rich man's mansion with a few people from the same team first.

Not only did he get a lot of gold and silver, but the rich family also had several wives and concubines, as well as many maids and servants, all of which were divided up by them.

Thinking of the two beauties who were placed in the camp, Dai Cheng couldn't help but feel a ball of evil fire in his lower abdomen.

He was originally a servant, and the young ladies, wives and concubines of the Zhu family lived in the deep boudoir.

In the past, at most, he could only take a look at it from a distance, without even daring to think about it.

But now, those ladies and ladies are kneeling at his feet tremblingly, and he is even a little tired of watching them.

But it doesn't matter, if you get tired of watching it, just grab another one.

Although Chunhua City is smaller, it is said that there are many rich households.

Dai Zheng grinned wildly while thinking about what would happen after the city was broken.

The crowd of fine cavalry around them also looked extremely relaxed, just waiting to kill the Ming army defending the city, and then burn Chunhua directly.

There is no military discipline in Chuangjun nowadays.

At the beginning, Chen Qiyu's soldiers surrounded Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others.

Gao Yingxiang and others pretended to surrender, but Chen Qiyu believed that the rebels really surrendered when they had nowhere to go, and he could achieve great success without much effort, so he decided to appease.

The result was that after Gao Yingxiang and others led the soldiers and horses out of the encirclement, they got supplies and immediately turned back and fought back.

"History of Ming Dynasty" records very clearly:

"Qi Yu intends to despise the thief, Xu Zhi, call on the generals to obey the soldiers and not kill them, and the counties they pass will be embarrassing transmissions."

"As soon as the thieves crossed the stack, they made a big noise and slaughtered all the seven states and counties they passed through."

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Chuangjun in the early and mid-term period was by no means a teacher of benevolence and righteousness.

Strictly disciplined and innocent rebels only appeared in the early and late stages of the uprising.

In the mid-term, most of them are chaotic and disorderly, with a mixture of fish and dragons.

At that time, many people have forgotten why they rebelled in the first place, and many of them have not grown enough in their vision.

And now is the middle of the uprising, when the situation is most chaotic.

Dai Cheng drove the horse and followed the front team around the street corner. Just as he was still thinking about what to do next, the dazzling fire in front of him made him squint his eyes involuntarily.

Gazing at the distant flames through the gap, Dai Cheng saw several strange-shaped carts blocking their way on their only way.

Under the light of the fire, there were red banners one after another—it was the Ming army!

"Kill the past!"

Without too many words, the team's cruel orders sounded from the cavalry formation.

When they first entered Sanshui City, the Ming army also relied on the streets to stop them, but those people fell under their swords and guns

When the city walls are gone, what is the use of fortifying the streets?

"Ugh——"

The low-pitched horn sounded slowly, and the Jingqi cavalry who were advancing rapidly on the street began to slow down intentionally.

The leading management team had already seen the carriages blocking the road on the street.

He still couldn't do such a stupid thing as riding a war horse straight to the roadblock, so naturally he wanted to dismount and fight.

Dai Cheng untied a round shield from the saddle, and drew out the saber at his waist, staring at the Ming army not far away, with a cruel smile on his lips.

Cut off the heads of a few more Ming soldiers and become a management team, so that they can have more power. How can this not make people desire!
But in the next moment, Dai Cheng's smile froze on his face.

Because, everyone saw a puff of gunpowder rising from the front.

In the next moment, a huge roar rushed straight along the narrow and long street.

Dai Cheng watched helplessly not far in front of him. The management team who had been shouting and ordering before was beaten into two pieces by the cannon, and then saw another person who was almost beaten into a sieve.

More gunpowder smoke rose slowly, and more and more torches were lit.

Not only in front of the street, but also on the square walls on both sides of the street, a large number of Ming soldiers were holding bird guns and shooting at them.

Dai Cheng wanted to open his mouth to shout, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that his whole mouth and nose were filled with the smell of rust.

He lowered his head for some unknown reason, but saw the blood flowing out from between his waist and abdomen.

At the last moment, he heard an explosion like thunder.

……

Gu Kecheng was trembling all over, his face pale.

He still doesn't know what happened.

At this time, in Chunhua City, guns and guns were firing together, and the flames were blazing.

All the fine cavalry entering the city were blocked.

And after that loud cannon fire, a large number of Ming troops suddenly shot out from the dark place of the east city and west city walls, and they were heading towards the towers of the south city.
