Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 224 It's Easy

"My lord, this, this cannon can't be lifted up!"

Kong Youde took off his hat, wiped his bald forehead, and looked at the extremely steep De'an Bridge, a trace of irritability flashed in his eyes.

Changzhou has no natural dangers, but it is a city built around water.If you want to attack here, you will have to pay a lot of price.In the past, Meng Yuan swept the entire Central Plains, but it happened that he paid a very tragic price in the small city of Changzhou, and many generals died in this city.

However, the vanguard troops have been here for a few days, but no other officials have shown up, so it can be seen that only Zuofu is in charge in the city now.As for the others, they may have been controlled by her.

Although the woman had never met before, the Battle of Jingkou made her famous all over the world. She dared to lead a small group of people across the river and set fire to the Qing army's large ship in the middle of the night. This woman's courage and strategy cannot be underestimated.

And this person is quite good at ingenious prostitution skills.Many of the things she made have flowed into the Qing Dynasty.Those royal nobles in the capital like her glass mirrors, glass tableware, and all kinds of perfumes in glass bottles that can make people crazy.

These things are all brought in by smuggling, so the prices are naturally ridiculously high.But even so, it can't stop the shopping desire of those who have just grown up.

If Zuofu could be captured alive, it would be a big blow to Daming, right?

"Zuo Fu alone can be worth a thousand troops."

Thinking of the regent's words, Kong Youde clenched his fists involuntarily.

Having had enough bird spirits in Daming, Xinchao must make more contributions.This Zuo Fu and his father have become a serious problem for Da Qing. If they can be captured alive, they may be able to force Zuo Dayou to surrender.

It's just that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Don't talk about capturing Zuofu alive, even the Hongyi cannon can't push the bridge, so how can they break the city?

Doduo had a gloomy face, obviously he couldn't do anything about it.How would they dare to cross the De'an Bridge without the assistance of artillery fire?Who knows if Zuo Fu will throw that terrible karma bottle again?
Yang Tingjian looked at the movements of the Qing army outside the city, and couldn't help laughing, "It's a waste of a bunch of useless iron bumps!"

"Sir is right."

Zuo Fu nodded, "We don't need to worry about them, we'll make some Tang Pozi later, cook some vegetable gnocchi and send them to the soldiers in the city."

"From this point of view, if the artillery can't be pulled up, they may choose to surround us."

Yang Tingjian said: "If this is the case, the soldiers must be refreshed, and they must not slack off."

"Siege us?"

Zuo Fu chuckled, "To let them live so comfortably, wouldn't it be a loss to our Zuo family army's prestige?"

Thinking of the strange soldier who had made it, Yang Tingjian smiled knowingly, and said softly: "Fortunately, it was Duoduo who came. This man is brave but not resourceful. If he hasn't made any progress in three days, he must fall into the trap!"

Qi Bing is not only here for sneak attacks, the word "Qi Bing" mainly needs to highlight the word "odd".If the enemy attacks the city, hit them from behind; if the city does not attack, then lure the enemy into an ambush, otherwise how to highlight the word "odd"?

And Zuo Fu has been studying guerrilla warfare for more than a year, and instilled some guerrilla warfare and mine warfare strategies in these soldiers.And she also believed that her soldiers would use what she provided to take care of this group of people!

Tang Pozi, the gnocchi made of dried vegetables were carried down the city in hanging baskets.A group of soldiers hid their things in the pit room, erected the windshield, covered Mrs. Tang into their clothes, felt the warmth rippling in their chests, and couldn't help but said: "I have been a military household for so many years, I dare not You can be so comfortable even if you want to fight a war. Your Excellency really loves us, and even gave us this little soup lady. In fact, it’s not cold in here at all. There are cushions and cotton-stuffed cushions under it. It won't freeze to death if you sleep all night."

A military household tugged on his military overcoat, "I am not afraid of any weather with this coat. Wear it during the day and use it as a quilt at night, it is comfortable!"

"Your Excellency has been so kind to us, we will kill a few more tartars later, and vent our anger on Your Excellency! Bah, what the hell! An old man still misses our Lord! He is still a barbarian, and he can't marry a pig or a dog." Marry a barbarian!"

"Isn't it? Thinking about it makes me angry! They must have done it on purpose, knowing that our lord is a girl and has a thin skin, so they used this to disgust her and humiliate her!"

"Yes, after all, my lord is still a woman, so in order to endure such words, she must have endured very hard, right?"

"Adults do great things, how can we have the same mind as you and me? Anyone who does great things will be able to endure..."

"Kong Xiucai! We politely call you a scholar, do you really think you are a scholar?! Are you the one who talks like that? You try to bear it?! Really, a group of old men outside bullied a weak woman. How shameless! I will throw a few more rounds of karmic fire and burn them to death!"

A group of people nodded vigorously, and Kong Xiucai said in a low voice: "I, I just want to say that you are very human, that is, that you are very powerful."

"Stop arguing."

Liu Da put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, and picked up the periscope to observe again.

While watching, he said, "Rest well now, I reckon the Tartars will attack the city tonight."

"how do you know?"

"They have two paths. One is to try to push the artillery up now, and the other is to besiege us. But the Tartars are running for thousands of miles, and they can carry limited rations. We want to eat and drink, and they also want to eat and drink. Before they came, the adults had already Everyone in the nearby villages has received the city, and it is impossible for them to rely on looting the people! Therefore, I reckon that they are more likely to choose to attack.

I saw a group of people go out just now, and I guess they are looking for planks to flatten the steps of the De'an Bridge, so that the artillery can push them up and attack us again. "

"I don't think they will attack the city."

Kong Xiucai said: "Their artillery will block the road as soon as they come up, so even if they blow open the city gate, they will not be able to charge. Instead, they will be burned to death by our incendiary bombs, so the safest way is to surround us."

"Ah……"

Liu Da sneered, "This is the best. Once the imperial army arrives, they will be finished!"

After a pause, he continued: "After all, these 2 people are really few, and the others, heh..."

As a veteran soldier, Liu Da obviously knew the virtues of the Ming army, "He will beg for mercy after a few hits."

The sky gradually darkened, the wind howled, and the weather became extremely cold.

Prince Yu Duoduo, who lived in the refugee's newly built house, also became more and more gloomy.After a busy day without any progress, thinking about the woman's ridicule at him, he felt that his heart was burning.

Kong Youde, Ruan Dacheng and other Han officials held their breaths, not daring to make any noise, for fear of offending this capricious and especially cruel prince.

"Is there really no other way?"

I don't know how long it took before Duduo's gloomy voice sounded, "I can only mount one cannon? How did you tell me when you came here? It's easy? Zuo Fu is a weak woman who can't stand being frightened? Hit Changzhou!" easy?"
