After the Baitou Army of Luo Chengyan was incorporated, the occupied areas of Jinhua Ming Army no longer had the established rebels who raised troops to fight against the Qing Dynasty under other banners. 5v85v85v read 5v books, ●.●o,x. However, at this moment, Chen Wen, who was far away in Longyou County, did not know about this.

A few days ago, the Tubiao camp went south to raid the Ming army's partial division in the half-ferry, but was defeated by the Ming army. However, according to the subsequent description of Li Ruixin and the army judge, as well as the number of beheadings and seized, the casualties of the Qing army may not be as large as he had imagined before, especially the cavalry was almost completely unharmed. The battle between the Qing army may not be dared at the moment, but with the more than 700 cavalry of these two Qing army, it should be possible to restrain them.

Therefore, in these few days, Chen Wen completely expelled the Dubiao Camp and the Quzhou Green Camp that had fled west to the west to ensure that the military operations that besieged Longyou County were not disturbed.

Longyou County is located on the alluvial plain at the intersection of Qujiang and Lingxi. It was once the capital of the Gugumi Kingdom. This city was built in the second year of Longqing. It is six miles long, one meter high, one meter and three feet wide, and is covered with bricks. In addition to the east gate Yong'an Gate Gate Bridge slightly north of the west bridgehead of Dongge Bridge in Longzhou Park, Guiren Gate at the intersection of Shengli Road on the northern edge of Longzhou Road, the west gate Taiping Gate Gate 20 meters east of Taiping East Road County Agricultural Bank Building, and outside the four main gates of Xiangyi Gate, north gate connecting Dazhong Road and intersection with Wenhua East Road, there are four gates that circulate through the city waterway.

However, Chen Wen's army immediately gave up the plan to surround the city after arriving in Longyou County. Although this city had walls and moats, there were many houses and shops outside the city, which had surrounded the city. The buildings and the remaining people reflected that its daily prosperity did not seem to be in the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Since this era came, Chen Wen has seen many cities, the first Xinchang County, and then Tiantai County, and Jinhua County, later Jinyun County, and Chuzhou Prefecture. Not to mention the inner and outer weather of these cities, none of them can compare with this Longyou County. Even Lanxi, which is on the Qujiang River, is not as good as that of a massacre a few years ago. Since then, under the destruction of Ma Jinbao, it has only begun to recover some vitality until the Ming army is restored.

Seeing this, Chen Wen had to choose a section of the city wall between Guiren Gate and Taiping Gate. There was no moat protection in that area, which was just convenient for him to use the city to use the city to display the method of releasing the collapse in the late Ming Dynasty.

The method of releasing the collapse was later called blasting, and it was used in China as early as the Song Dynasty. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng also attacked Kaifeng with this method, but because his skills were too problematic, he did not succeed in the end. Instead, he waited for the flood of the old supervisor Hou Xun and Hou.

The captain of the "Toy Soldier" under Chen Wen once learned this skill from a friend in the army. Later, during the training of military training in Tiantai Mountain, he mixed some Chen Wen's understanding, forming the current method of releasing the collapse.

Starting the day before yesterday, the Ming army recruited civilians to build a smaller mountain of earth in the direction of the city wall in the entrance of the tunnel of the attack, and then sent engineers to dig the tunnel leading to the city wall. Unlike digging tunnels into the city, digging and blasting only requires digging to the city, then installing the blasting gunpowder and fuses, and then sealing the small tunnel. At that time, the gas and energy generated by the explosion will break out from the top of the city wall, thus blowing out a huge gap. The Ming army can directly enter the city from there.

This tactic sounds simple and easy to use, but in fact there are many difficulties. First of all, the tunnels that are excavated cannot be long, otherwise oxygen cannot enter, the engineers who excavated the tunnels will be suffocated to death due to lack of oxygen. By the same token, the entrance of the tunnel is crucial. Since it is not far from the city wall, the enemy can send dead soldiers to block the entrance. The engineers below will also be suffocated to death. In addition, especially in the south, the underground is relatively humid, and the equipment carrying gunpowder must be moisture-proof, otherwise the gunpowder cannot explode if it gets damp.

In addition, such as the repair location of the walls that seal the tunnel, how can the fuse be guaranteed to be unwet or interrupted in the underground, the placement of the gunpowder must be under the city, etc., many things in details need to be foolproof, and the technical requirements are much more detailed than imagined. Any mistake will be wasted.

Since the excavation day before yesterday, the Ming army was responsible for excavation and blasting, and because they had long-term training in advance and three shifts were used throughout the day, the excavation speed was much faster than the firearm battalion under Zheng Chenggong, who had planned to blast Zhangzhou a few days ago.

However, even though the holes dug by the Ming army were not very large, they had to be reinforced with wood every time they were excavated. It was not until the night time, according to the calculated distance, at least tomorrow afternoon. Moreover, this did not include the time to place gunpowder and seal the gunpowder area. The fastest thing would be to be completed tomorrow night. Moreover, it was still without digging groundwater or rocks, otherwise the work would have been in vain these days.

Last night, the Qing army's dead soldiers fell down from the city at night to block the entrance of the cave and were defeated by the guards of the Ming army. At this moment, the great achievements were almost done. The Ming army was very strict with the guards of this area. After only the loud noise from Chen Wen, they rushed into the wealthy Longyou County. By then, they would get the military achievements of the county town, and they could also get a Yongyetian without paying taxes at home.

……………………

At the same time, in a large mansion in Longyou County, the Qing army guard stationed in Longyou County, and the general of Jinhua, Ma Jinbao, is currently stationed here.

Ma Jinbao was born into a bandit and surrendered to the Ming court during the Chongzhen period to serve as deputy general of Anqing. The Qing army went south. With his credit for persuading surrender and his ability to scrape the land, he took the thigh of Prince Duan Chong, the commander of the Qing army, who led the army southward at that time, and then took the post of General of Quzhou with the credit for the massacre of the city in Jinhua Prefecture. Later, under the political, economic and military needs of the high-level Qing Dynasty in Zhejiang, he was transferred to General of Jinhua Prefecture.

Back to the land that once massacred the city, Ma Jinbao did not restrain himself because of this, but instead became more powerful. He even reached the point where the local officials "dare not to speak". In addition to his filial piety to the upper class, he was also inseparable from the contribution of the hush money of local officials every year.

It is precisely because of this "knowledge of being a human being" that Ma Jinbao was responsible for the military affairs of the four governments in Zhejiang in the early Qing Dynasty and has not been suspicious yet. Moreover, he always gets a share of the war that can achieve military merits. There are also big figures like Qian Qianyi who often come to flatter, even if it is just to instigate the rebellion, it can be said that it is very pleasant for a person like him who is a bandit.

But since last year, such good days almost disappeared. In the second half of last year, Ma Jinbao, who was originally the president of the Qing army on the southern front, led his troops to participate in the war to siege Zhoushan, but who knew that in Taizhou, the weak Yu Guowang's troops were restrained by some kind of phalanx and could not catch up with the war.

He finally drove Yu Guowang away and was thinking about how to turn the big and small things into a matter of not having a date, but he didn't expect that this problem would be unnecessary. The Ming army general named Chen Wen had already solved it for him.

The shameless Chen Wen sent Yu Guowang to restrain his army and thus entered Jinhua Mansion. Whether others believed this perfect statement, Ma Jinbao and his money would believe it. He believed that as long as his money believed it, the senior officials of the Qing Dynasty in Zhejiang would believe it, because he did this every time and succeeded.

He hurried back to Jinhua Mansion. The Ming army general who didn't know how many eyes Mr. Ma had was still squatting in Yiwu and busy training. He originally planned to slaughter the two counties that were attached to the rebels after defeating the Ming army, so that the wool came from the sheep, not the horse. However, Ma Jinbao never expected that half of the Jinqu Yanchu's four prefectures, the green camp would send a total of nearly 4,000 troops, and would be easily defeated by a 2,000-strong camp of the Ming army. Later, the hateful Zhang Guoxun threw all the blame on him.

Relying on Boluo's face and years of filial piety, Chen Jin suppressed this matter very righteously and tried his best to help him replenish the troops in preparation for another battle. He thought he could wait until the Jiangxi incident and the Qing army gathered in Quzhou to encircle and suppress the Ming army of Jinhua again, but it was this helpless, but Chen Wen, who had just occupied Jinhua Mansion, came here again without even warming up his butt, and the scale was even larger than last year.

The army under his command had just been organized, and its combat power was extremely luxurious. Without field combat capabilities, he guarded this merchants and wealthy families, including Longyou who fled to the capital city. Those who were looking forward to the moon were the Dubiao Camp and Quzhou Green Camp able to defend the Lingxi defense line. But the last thing he was the Ming army's partial division that Dubiao Camp went to raid the half-way, but was defeated by the Ming army. Moreover, the Ming army did not continue to chase the capital city, but surrounded Longyou thickly.

The situation was unfavorable to him day by day, especially in the past two days, when the Ming army was found digging in the southeast of the county town, digging tunnels into the city and horses and treasures, they knew how to deal with it in the city. But if the Ming army decided to burn the city or let it go, then they would have to go out of the city to block the entrance of the cave. But today, when the last hope of defending the city was extinguished by the Ming army, can we only pray for the Ming army to withdraw suddenly?

Thinking of this, Ma Jinbao clenched his fists. There was no way out. He came out of his hometown in Xi County and escaped several times under the swords of the fierce men of Cao Yan, He Caizi, and Hong Butcher.

Until today, the bandits who robbed grain, silver and Xiao Niang together were either dead or missing, but he was able to sit in the fertile land of Zhejiang because he could always survive.

As long as you can try to survive, there will always be a chance to turn the tables!
