Chapter 530 Tall and handsome has become more important

The Qing army is not only good at riding and shooting, but also has rich experience in tough battles.

When the Qing army competed with the Ming army for the Liao land, they often faced strong cities. At that time, the Qing army mainly focused on besieging and fighting for aid, but it was not that they did not attack the city.

After the Qing army entered the pass, the Manchu Qing recruited a large number of Ming Dynasty frontier troops, and they had a group of Han generals who were good at attacking cities.

The current Qing army is full of leaders from the Mongolian and Han clans. They can ride and shoot when they are on horseback, and they can fight on foot when they are dismounted. They can also play with various firearms. It can be said that they are very powerful.

Duduo sometimes thinks that with such an army, no matter what cards the opponent plays, the Qing Dynasty has the means to restrain it, and there is no reason not to win the battle.

Facing a prefectural city like Shangqiu City now, it is really nothing to the warriors of the Qing Dynasty.

How many strong cities in the Liao land fell into the hands of the Qing Dynasty, how could a Shangqiu stop him.

Duoduo didn't take Liu Heizi seriously either, Gao Yihuan couldn't beat this king, and Gao Yihuan's Ma Bian couldn't beat this king, so the king just find a brick and kill him.

After setting up the camp, Duoduo asked Chen Baoping, who had surrendered to him, to lead his men to the city to call out, claiming to give Liu Heizi one last chance to surrender.

Although Liu Heizi was also afraid of death, he knew that after surrendering, he would never get anything good.

It's all because he and Gao Yihuan fooled around, killed Huang Taiji's son-in-law in Shandong, and ambushed Man Dahai together, causing Man Dahai to be killed.

Those who died were all members of the Tazi royal family, not to mention the matter of him robbing horses and grain, how could Liu Heizi believe in Duoduo's words with so many people in his heart.

He immediately let the city fire a few shots, and in response, he told Duoduo stiffly that I, Liu Shun, was a hero and would not surrender to the Tartars.

He had no choice but to be led by Gao Yihuan on a path that had to resist the Qing Dynasty. Facing the Tartars, he could only continue to be a hero against the Tartars.

Seeing that Liu Heizi didn't know good from bad, Duoduo asked Chen Baoping to launch a tentative attack on Shangqiu City. As a result, Chen Baoping was beaten back by artillery, bird guns, and thunder from the city before he got close to the city wall.

This surprised Duoduo, who did not expect that Liu Heizi was not easy to deal with.

Although Duoduo was ambitious and had enough troops, but if he really wanted to attack the city, there were still many problems.

In several fights with Gao Yihuan, two batches of Duoduo's red cannons were destroyed, and even hundreds of artillery soldiers were sent to the sky last time.

This made Duoduo only bring ten red cannons and a group of newly trained gunners for this expedition.

Seeing that the city was well prepared and his own artillery was not enough, Duoduo could only bombard the city with cannons, and at the same time asked the captured people to clean up the horse-repelling posts, antlers, and caltrops outside the city, and knock down the low walls to fill in vigorously. river.

On the bank of the moat, nearly [-] people dumped baskets of soil into the river, stirring up turbid waves. In the distance, a steady stream of people used a flat four-wheeled cart with a wide baffle at the front to resist arrows. Arrow, transport the soil to the river, and then dump it.

For a while, the flow of people in the wilderness kept shuttling, just like ants moving their houses, which was very spectacular.

The firecrackers on the top of the city kept ringing "bang, bang, bang", and the smoke filled the air, and the soldiers holding the firecrackers fired continuously.

The archers in the city kept bending their bows and shooting arrows, and the men and horses filling the river rolled into the river from time to time.

Over the years, Liu Heizi has taken in many refugees and resettled them to farm, but this is because the refugees can provide him with food and taxes, not out of compassion, so when the Qing army drove the people to fill the river, he did not Keep your hands, all kinds of firearms greet you together.

This made the Qing army's filling of the river not fast, but Duoduo was not in a hurry. He waited for the Ming army in the south to see if they would come to rescue Shangqiu.

If the Ming army came to rescue Shangqiu and Xuzhou, that would be great. Duoduo could come to a siege where the Qing soldiers were best at, and the Ma army would directly overwhelm the Ming army who came to help.

This move they had mastered in Liaodong, as long as the Ming army came to rescue, he was confident to defeat them.

This can not only eliminate the reinforcements, consume the strength of the Ming army on the front line of the Huaijiang River, so that they can break through the Huaijiang River later, but also make the defenders in the city waver after witnessing the destruction of the reinforcements, and a traitor appears, and then it is convenient for him to seize the city.

Therefore, Duoduo did not urge the progress of filling the city, and when Duoduo was filling the river in Shangqiu in an orderly manner, Gao Jie from Xuzhou had already shrunk his troops to the city.

This is where the Yellow River flows southward into the Huaihe River and then flows into the sea.

Xuzhou is just south of the Yellow River, and it could have used the Yellow River to stop Azig's army, but Doduo sent Berenikan to lead [-] cavalry to bypass Shangqiu City and reach the outside of Xuzhou City, making it impossible for the Ming army to use the Yellow River to stop Azig's army. zig.

After Azig received Nikan's support, the army quickly built a pontoon bridge on the river, and [-] soldiers and horses crossed the Yellow River and surrounded Xuzhou.

When the time came to September, all 20 Qing troops crossed the Yellow River and surrounded the two important towns of Shangqiu and Xuzhou.

In Nanyang City, the Marshal's residence, Gao Yihuan was having dinner with his family early in the morning, feeling very relaxed.

He had already received the news that the Qing army was going south, but it was not aimed at himself, so he was relieved and drank some wine that day.

At this time Zhou Dali came in, "Report to Commander-in-Chief, Guide's messenger has arrived and wants to see Commander-in-Chief. This is a letter from General Liu to Commander-in-Chief."

"Okay, I got it." Gao Yihuan waved his hand, "Put the letter down, and the messenger will be placed in the posthouse first!"

"Marshal, shall we not send troops?" Zhou Dali asked.

"Of course we have to make a move, but it's not the time yet, let them do it first." Gao Yihuan said.

Zhou Dali seemed to understand a little bit.

In the city of Nanjing, in the Imperial Study Room, Zhu Cihong hurried back and forth in the main hall. Gao Mingheng, who had just been recalled to Nanjing for a few days, said goodbye to him: "Your Majesty, the 20 troops from the Eastern Captives are going south, and I will return to Jiangbei today to command all the ministries to defend against the Eastern Captives. "

Zhu Cihong's face was a little panicked, and he asked, "Sir, are you sure you can defeat Donglu?"

Gao Mingheng shook his head, "The eastern captive horse army is elite, and it is stronger than our army in field battles. The towns in Jiangbei can only hide in the city, defend passively, and dare not go out to fight. The minister has no strategy to defeat the enemy, only the method of defense."

Zhu Cihong frowned, which meant that he could only be beaten passively, and let the Qing army retreat when they were tired from the beating?This is too suffocating.

However, during the Chongzhen Dynasty, the last few times the Donglu invaded the bandits, it seemed that they waited for the Donglu to be tired and satisfied with the robbing, and then retreated by themselves.

The young Zhu Cihong obviously didn't want this kind of situation to happen again, but Gao Mingheng, who he relied on the most, said so, and he had no choice but to flush with embarrassment and anger.

Seeing this, Gao Mingheng suddenly said: "Your Majesty, if you want to defeat the Tartars, there is no way out! Gao Jing is loyal and strong, if he is willing to send troops, he may be able to repel the Eastern captives!"

Zhu Cihong heard the words, but his face was a little unhappy~
