This holy decree immediately caused an uproar among the officers and men of the Dazhong Army, and they all said that they could not understand the emperor's holy decree at this juncture, and some officers directly sent people to ask their superiors for the reason.

Originally, Luo Li also expressed the same dissatisfaction and incomprehension of Xiao Tianjian's edict, but fortunately, the person who came to deliver the decree lowered his head and whispered to Luo Li, after Luo Li heard it, his face suddenly showed an expression of sudden realization, nodded again and again, and said to the person who delivered the decree with a thief smile: "The last general understands!" Please reply to the Holy Lord after returning to Beijing, and the last general will definitely act in accordance with the Holy Decree, and will not let the following mess around! ”

Under the command and command of Luo Li, the Dazhong Army quickly cleared the resistance of Jiannu outside Shengjing City and firmly surrounded Shengjing.

However, after the completion of the siege, the Dazhong Army suddenly stopped continuing the attack and suddenly changed to a siege, and for half a month, except for firing artillery at the city from time to time every day, causing chaos to the city, it did not immediately launch a large-scale offensive.

Such an action of the Great Chinese Army made Dolgon and the new emperor Shunde of the Slave Chief very confused, but they soon figured out the intentions of the Great Chinese Army.

Shengjing has completely become an isolated city at this time, it is impossible for reinforcements to come to rescue them, they can only sit and wait in the city, and because of the continuous war and drought, there is a serious shortage of food in Shengjing City, and now the fleeing banner people have crowded into Shengjing City, which has aggravated the food shortage in the city.

Originally, Jiannu did not plan to hold out for too long, in their opinion, the Dazhong army should be able to take Shengjing soon, and then they will be destroyed and the city will be destroyed, so they did not pay too much attention to the problem of food shortage.

But after a few days, they found that the food in the city began to run out, and for the first few days Jiannu could still hold on, but after ten days, they began to kill horses for food, and after half a month, the horses in the city had been eaten by them, so they could only find a way to eat bark, leather and other things.

At this time, the Great Chinese Army took advantage of this half a month to send cavalry to carry out operations within a radius of 100 miles around Shengjing, driving many banner people and their clothed slaves together like ducks, and then crushing their resistance, making them lay down their arms and surrender, and imprisoned them all in the newly built concentration camps.

These concentration camps were collectively called labor camps, and the captured banner men and their clothed slaves were guarded separately, and then sent people to screen them, according to the principles formulated by the Great Chinese Army, all the Han people who were taken out of the customs in the Guan, after being screened here, were released on the spot, and the Great Chinese Army gave them food and land, and resettled them on the spot outside the Guan, and selected the shrewd people among them to fill the post of A Commander, and reorganized into tunbao and scattered for cultivation or grazing.

However, for those who had followed Jiannu as a follower and participated in the raiding of the customs, they should continue to stay in the labor camp to work as a punishment for them, and then according to the size of their crimes, they will be given a period of labor for five years to one year, and the period of labor can be reduced according to their performance, and those who have completed the labor period will be incorporated into various tunbao on the spot to become the aborigines of Liaodong, and they can be restored to civilian status.

As for those bannermen, regardless of their previous ethnicity, they were all put into labor camps for a period of life, and their sentences could not be commuted until they died!

As a result, many of the generals finally understood the painstaking work of their saints, and it turned out that their wise saints wanted free labor!

After nearly 20 days or so of purge action, the area south of Fushun in Liaodong has basically fallen into the hands of the Dazhong Army, and returned to the rule of the Dazhong Dynasty.

On September 15, seeing that the weather was gradually entering winter again, and the first snow might fall at any time, Luo Li and Diao Zheng came to Shengjing City with the generals of the army.

The Dazhong army persuaded the Jiannu in Shengjing City to surrender for the last time, ordering it to immediately open the city gate and surrender unconditionally to the Dazhong army, otherwise they would start to launch a siege operation.

At this time, the food in Shengjing City had already been cut off, and even the war horses were basically killed and eaten by them, and the slave chiefs of Dolgon only now understood that the Dazhong army was simply consuming their strength, and only waited for them to eat up the war horses and no longer had the possibility of breaking through and escaping, so they launched the final blow against them.

For the ultimatum of the Great Chinese Army, Dolgon and Emperor Shunde both carried forward their courage not to hit the southern wall and not look back, categorically rejected the ultimatum of the Great Chinese Army, and led the remaining Jiannu soldiers to climb the wall of Shengjing and set up some of their remaining artillery.

Luo Li observed the head of Shengjing City from the telescope, and Diao Zheng and other generals put down the telescope in their hands one after another, looked at each other and sneered, Luo Li coughed lightly, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Let's get started! ……”

The Shengjing offensive and defensive battle lasted a total of three days, the large Chinese army concentrated the whole army with a total of more than 200 heavy artillery, all of which were spread outside the two south gates of Desheng Gate and Tianyou Gate in the south of the city, and the rest of the city gates were blocked by the battalion's six-pounder light artillery, after the siege began, the two heavy artillery regiments of the large and medium army and the independent artillery battalions concentrated their firepower at the two south gates, and began a continuous artillery bombardment that lasted for a day and a night.

At the end of this day, many heavy artillery pieces were almost all red, and they had to be cooled down repeatedly before they could continue to fire, and there were even many vicious accidents in which the bore of the cannon was blown up, which shows the intensity of this shelling and the intensity of the artillery fire.

Now the temperature has reached the level of freezing, and many artillerymen still threw off their cotton clothes in the heat and went into battle shirtless to reset and reload the cannons, and some people even burned the hot barrels, and some people later felt the wind chill.

Later, when the artillery was exhausted, Luo Li also sent the non-commissioned officers of the baggage battalion to the artillery, so that they could help the artillery reset the artillery, after all, at this time it was still a retreating artillery, and it was impossible to have a tube annealing artillery.

Fortunately, the Dazhong Army has abundant troops, and the soldiers of the baggage battalion will be sent in turn to help, otherwise the shelling of this day alone will completely exhaust all the artillery.

After a day and a night of artillery preparations, look at the southern wall of Shengjing City, at this time, it seems that the tofu that has suffered a hail at this time, is full of dense pits, and the battlements of the entire southern city wall are all flattened by artillery fire at this time, and the old scene can no longer be seen.

Large sections of the wall began to crumble, and in some places cracks as wide as a foot widened appeared, and the entire wall was stripped away by artillery fire, revealing the rammed earth wall below.

Even the urn city wall of Tianyou Gate on the west side was all blown down, revealing the main city gate in Weng City, and at this time, the main city gate in Tianyou Gate Urn City had already been destroyed by artillery fire and opened into a huge black hole.

Needless to say, the defenders of Jiannu in the city could not survive in the city under such artillery fire, so they fled from the city wall and avoided into the city.

Seeing that the city wall of the urn city of Tianyou Gate collapsed, revealing the main city gate behind, Jiannu tried to block the city gate many times, but in the end, under the fierce artillery attack of the Great Chinese Army, Jiannu did not be able to block the main city gate, but left a ground of minced meat and human body parts in the city gate hole, and finally Jiannu could only barely be in the main city gate, temporarily stripped off a few courtyards, and used masonry and wood to build a very simple inner urn city as the last line of defense of the city gate.

At this time, the assault troops entered the starting point, and at the same time as the shelling ended, thousands of assault men and horses jumped out of the breastwork, marched in unison in several ways, shouting and killing the sky and rushing to the city wall and the collapsed city gate.

Dolgon personally led the yellow flag and the white flag soldiers to be responsible for guarding the south of the city, the two sides fought fiercely for nearly two days, Dolgon finally showed his true colors as a fierce general, in the south of the city was stunned to lead the troops to defend for two days, before finally let the large army into the city.

The offensive and defensive battle between the two sides was extremely tragic, the gray rammed earth city wall was sprinkled with the blood of the soldiers of the two armies, and the corpses of the soldiers of the two armies were covered with the city and the city, which were frozen hard in the cold wind after nightfall, and the corpses of many slave soldiers and soldiers of the Dazhong Army were entangled together, and they could not be separated, and it can be seen that both sides have tried their best.

In addition to using the tactics of platoon guns to support the siege troops outside the city, the army also sent engineering troops to continuously blast the city wall, and the army also used the thunderbolt cannon in their hands as a melee weapon to constantly bombard and kill the slave soldiers who blocked the mouth.

The slaves suffered extremely heavy casualties, and almost collapsed several times, but they were eventually stabilized by Dolgon, but as groups of fresh troops fell above and below the city walls, Dolgon gradually could not come up with more troops to stop the attack of the Great Medium Army.

In the end, Dolgon knew that he was not lucky, and launched a decisive counter-charge with the only hundreds of white-armored soldiers around him, these Jiannu soldiers were the strongest soldiers among the Jiannu, each of them had super combat skills, and the protection was excellent, hundreds of people rushed out of the city gate at the same time, and instantly destroyed a large army that was attacking the city gate.

In the face of such a fierce and fierce beast-like Jiannu general, Li Dingguo, who was in charge of commanding the Tianyoumen operation, immediately ordered a temporary retreat and concentrated firepower to attack it.

More than 2,000 flintlock pistols were aimed at the group of Jiannu soldiers who rushed out of the city gate, and at the same time began to concentrate fire, and patches of blood mist suddenly rose at the city gate.
