In the city of Nanjing, under the Tongji Gate, several Qing generals surrounded a large vat that was mostly buried in the soil.

At this time, the edge of the cylinder was slightly shaking a trace of water lines, rhythmically spreading to the center, and the face of the Qing Jiang watching became serious. Tong Tulai looked at it for a while, raised his head, stretched out his hand to summon one of his subordinates, and ordered: "You go to the Governor's Mansion quickly, tell Governor Hong, and ask him to come to Tongjimen." ”

After hearing this, the Eight Banners immediately saluted, then turned around and climbed on a war horse, whipped and galloped in the direction of the city.

Not long after, a sound of horses' hooves came, wearing a black horse-hoof-sleeved official robe with nine pythons and five claws, embroidered cranes on his chest, wearing large dynasty beads, bowls and hats on his head, and Hong Chengchou, who was wearing red coral, was quite majestic under the protection of a group of guards, and came to the door.

Tong Tulai hurriedly greeted him, and several Eight Banners soldiers hurriedly helped Hong Chengchou hold the reins, helped him dismount, and then led him to the big vat.

Hong Chengchou looked at the edge of the big tank, the water ripples shook slightly, and Tong Tulai on the side said: "As expected by the governor, Wang Wei really dug up the tunnel. Xia Guan saw that he was addicted to holes, digging in Zhangzhou, and now he is still digging, do you really think that we will not take precautions? This time he will inevitably suffer something! ”

Hong Chengchou listened to him, but he lay his head on the edge of the cylinder, and a faint "dong dong" sound came rhythmically.

This movement is not usually detectable at all, and can only be listened to by special means.

"Listen to a few of you, and see where you go? In addition, he immediately ordered the prefect of Jiangning to ask him to requisition the people in the city, and immediately dig against it, and not let Wang reverse dig into the city. Hong Chengchou straightened up, gave an order, and then smiled slightly at Tong Tulai: "In a strong city like Nanjing, as long as there are no internal problems, we will not make mistakes when defending the city, and it will not be a problem to hold on for a year." Wang Yi is now also forced to be helpless, the loss of the attack on the ground is too great, he has more than 100,000 people, all of whom died under the city, even if he takes Nanjing, he is not able to deal with the prince of Yu in Jiangbei, so he wants to use the underground method, but how can this governor let him get his wish. ”

Hearing him say this, Tong Tulai nodded, and unconsciously felt more confident in his heart, as long as there were no faint moves in the defense process, and there were no internal incidents, there was absolutely no problem in holding on for a month.

"What the Governor said!" Tong Tulai said with a smile: "I think Wang Yi is a little poor now, let's stay for more than a month, and the turnaround should come." ”

Hong Chengchou nodded, waved his hand and turned around and walked under the city gate, "For the sake of conservatism, this governor will allocate another 3,000 men and horses to you, so as to be in order." Okay, Tong Gushan will also go and prepare. Today, the Governor will stay in Tongjimen to work, and watch you thwart Wang Yi's plan to dig the ground and attack the city! ”

"You guys, take the governor to rest!" Tong Tulai saluted and received the order, and then waved his hand and beckoned his subordinates to lead Hong Chengchou to rest in a pergola on the back of the city wall.

After a short time, a black-robed official, leading a group of green battalion soldiers, accompanied by a large group of people with hoes, shovels, and baskets, came over, pointed to a street, and ordered in a loud voice: "Start digging out from here." ”

Under the supervision of the Qing soldiers, the people moved the bluestone slabs on the street and began to dig down.

A few miles outside the city, four long poles supported a piece of white cloth and built a simple pergola, in which Wang Yan and a group of generals listened to Li Yuanyin's report.

"Your Highness, the tunnel has been dug under the moat, and the general is expected to dig under the city early tomorrow morning." Li Yuanyin hugged his fists and reported.

Wang Yan was holding a clairvoyant mirror, observing the Tongji Gate, and Chen Bangyan behind him asked, "General Li, what if the tunnel is discovered by the flood thieves?" ”

This is also a problem that Wang Yan is worried about, he put down the clairvoyant mirror and turned around, while Li Yuanyin smiled slightly, clenched his fists and said: "Lord Chen, don't worry, this point has long been expected by the humble position." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked to a large table in the pergola, which was full of drawings, he took out one, then spread it on the table, brushed off the dust, and said to everyone: "Your Highness, Lord Chen, all comrades, look. ”

Wang Yan and a few people immediately surrounded him, and then he pointed to the drawings quite confidently and said: "Most of the general's subordinates are Fuzhou miners, who are good at digging mines, but this tunnel is much simpler than mines. This time, the last general excavated four tunnels at the same time. ”

He paused as he spoke, and clicked his finger three times on the map, "One, two, three, these three are on it, all of which are to prevent the flood thieves from discovering them." ”

Wang Yan nodded, looked at the drawings, but couldn't find where the fourth one was, and couldn't help asking, "What about the fourth one?" ”

Li Yuanyin smiled and pointed to the bottom of the middle one, there is also a black line there, which is not easy to detect if you don't look closely, "Your Highness, here!" ”

Wang Yan's eyes lit up, and he smiled: "You put the fourth one under the middle one!"

"Your Highness Mingcha, that's exactly the case!" Li Yuanyin hugged his fists.

Wang Yan nodded, and put his hands behind his back, "This clan and everyone have discussed two methods, if this tunnel is not discovered by the flood thieves, then we will bomb the city and rush in." If he discovers it, this thief will definitely set up a heavy army in Tongjimen, then our purpose is to attract the attention of the Qing soldiers to Tongjimen, and then surprise attack the water gate, so you must dig this tunnel well. ”

Wang Yan was talking, when a person suddenly came outside the pergola, and it was indeed Li Yuanyin's subordinate general Luo Chengyao.

He walked into the pergola quickly, saluted Wang Yan first, and then turned to Li Yuanyin and said: "Commander, the tunnel was discovered by the Qing soldiers, and the brothers heard the movement, and the inside was digging out. ”

Wang Yan listened, glanced at the left and right people, and it was really unsurprising that the flood thief was really on guard.

When Li Yuanyin heard this, his face turned straight, and he turned to Wang Yan and saluted, "Your Highness, the last general can't be accompanied." ”

Wang Yan waved his hand, "Uncle Yuan, let's go, since the Hong thief has been discovered, then we must make the Hong thief feel the pressure and threat, and attract more Qing soldiers to Tongji Gate." ”

Li Yuanyin hugged his fists and saluted, then pressed the battle knife and turned around with Luo Chengyao to go out.

Seeing this, Wang Yan also waved his hand and said, "Let's also go back to the camp, and send someone to invite Jin Shenghuan and Zheng Chenggong to come over, and tomorrow it will be a decisive battle." ”

At this time underground, the two armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties dug against each other, and a team of Ming troops crowded into the narrow tunnels, holding their war knives tightly in their hands, and their faces leaked with nervousness.

In front of them, by the faint light of the fire, they could see that several shovels were placed on the ground, and that the soldiers had stopped digging, but the earth shook slightly, and from time to time rolled down.

This is the Qing soldiers on the opposite side, and the location has been calculated, and the two sides are about to be connected.

Suddenly, at this moment, a shovel pierced the soil layer separated by the two tunnels, and when the Ming army saw the shovel, his face was cold, and the war knife in his hand was held tighter.

"That's it! It's done! A voice came from the opposite side, and with the sound, the shovel pulled back, and the entire soil layer suddenly collapsed, revealing several Qing soldiers standing opposite with weapons in their hands.

"Kill~" Without any nonsense, the Ming army roared angrily, kicked the shovel in the passage away, smashed it into the Qing soldiers on the opposite side, and then raised the knife forward, and then started a fight with the Qing soldiers in the narrow tunnel.
