The gates of Xingyang City were opened, the sound of horses' hooves and shouts of killing sounded, and a large number of horse troops poured into the city from the south gate.

Looking down from the top of the city, a long dragon with a torch is pouring into the city from the doorway.

In the dark night, Xingyang City, which was originally calm and dark, was like being poured with a spoonful of boiling molten iron, and it was in an uproar in an instant.

Looking down from the sky, a pitch-black city, from south to north, was illuminated by torches and lights in turn, and the entire city instantly woke up, and there was panic everywhere.

More than 1,000 Tartars in the city, when they found that there were enemy soldiers touching the city, they were all shocked, and some couldn't believe it, Xingyang was in the northwest of Zhengzhou, how did the Qibeile in Zhengzhou let the enemy soldiers over?

The Tartars didn't have time to think about it, so they counterattacked the southern city with a torch under the leadership of a Jiala'e Zhen, but found that more and more enemy soldiers entered the city, and they did not recapture the southern city gate in a hurry, but were driven to the vicinity of the county government and the warehouse.

The fierce battle in the city lasted less than half an hour, and the Tartars knew that the tide was over, and fled through the other three gates.

At this time, Jin Shenghuan was holding the reins of his horse on the street, and on both sides were Gao sergeants with torches, and the flickering firelight shone on everyone's faces, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn.

At this time, except for the scattered Tartars in the city who were still resisting, the rest of the Tartars were either killed or had fled.

Jin Shenghuan was stationed in front of the Xingyang County Ya, where a fierce battle broke out, but Gao Jun had already killed all the Tartars of the county government by virtue of the advantage of numbers.

The streets were littered with corpses, the walls were stained with blood, and many soldiers were picking up tartars' armor, chopping off their heads, and cleaning up the corpses of their comrades.

Jin Shenghuan looked at it and immediately ordered, "Some people continue to clean up, and the rest of the people set fire to the grain depot and burn it down, and find out the Tartar Hongyi cannon and blow it up!" ”

"General, is the whole city burning? What about the people of the city? Dai Jinghong couldn't help asking: "Don't leave some food to take away?"

"Burn, drive the people out of the city, let them flee for their lives!" Jin Shenghuan said categorically: "Don't leave any food, destroy it all!" The army must withdraw before dawn. ”

Dai Jinghong felt a little unbearable in his heart, you, a Shaanxi guy, didn't feel sorry for our fellow villagers in Henan at all, but he still hugged his fists and said: "Yes!" Humble Command! ”

After speaking, he drew his knife and shouted loudly, "Jiaqian Bureau, follow me!" ”

Hundreds of soldiers pulled out their swords, and the light of the swords shone in the cold light under the reflection of the torches on both sides, and the soldiers held the knives in one hand and the torches in the other, and quickly left the county office.

As soon as Dai Jinghong left, Jin Shenghuan said again: "Burn the corpses of the brothers who died in the battle immediately!"

The sergeants of the city lit fires everywhere, and in an instant, the fire spread, reflecting half of the sky.

Among them, the fire in the grain depot was as high as three feet, which was a pity.

Jin Shenghuan stood in an open area with the hilt of his sword, his task had been completed, and he began to command the soldiers to withdraw from Xingyang.

At this time, Dai Jinghong came to report, "General, I have found the Hongyi cannon of Tartar." ”

"Let's go! Take me there! Jin Shenghuan waved his hand, and Dai Jinghong led him to a warehouse.

More than 20 Hongyi cannons were lying on the gun truck, and the soldiers were carrying barrels of gunpowder from a warehouse and piling them under the guns, while several soldiers were holding the medicinal products and filling the muzzles.

Looking at the black and thick cannon body, the Tartar cannon is actually one size larger than the cannon made by Gao Jun.

This made Jin Shenghuan a little surprised, with this batch of cannons, not to mention the Tiger Prison Pass, even Tongguan, I am afraid that it will also be bombarded by the Tartars.

"Be careful when playing the torch, and stand farther away!" Jin Shenghuan saw that the medicine barrels were piled up like a hill, and it was a little scary just to look at it, so he reminded him loudly.

Then he turned his head and ordered, "Don't set fire around here, lest the sparks fall in!" ”

"Don't worry, general, I've already confessed. The nearby soldiers and people were also evacuated! Dai Jinghong hugged his fists.

The soldiers were busy, and in a short time they filled more than twenty guns with gunpowder, and then sprinkled gunpowder to connect them, and made a long priming line.

"Let the brothers evacuate quickly, don't stay in Xicheng!" With so many explosives, the power of the explosion is immeasurable, Jin Shenghuan saw that he had finished it, and said while walking into the distance.

At this time, all the busy soldiers withdrew, and only one soldier carried a stall of gunpowder, and poured it as he went, until the gunpowder was poured.

Because there was too much gunpowder, the lead was very long, and the group almost retreated to Nancheng.

Jin Shenghuan and others were waiting outside, and he saw the soldier holding the medicine jar and coming out of the alley, and immediately said to the soldier next to him: "Give me the torch!"

He took the torch and walked over to the medicine leader.

This artillery battle should be ordered by him.

The power of the gunpowder explosion must be heard for hundreds of miles, and he can't let go of such an opportunity to show his face.

Blowing up the Tartars' twenty Hongyi cannons at once, and destroying the Tartars' plan to attack the Tiger Prison Pass, and even Tongguan, will become his important qualifications and will also become his future talking point.

Jin Shenghuan leaned the torch on the primer with some excitement on his face, and the gunpowder suddenly flashed with sparks, emitting white smoke, and rushed in, Jin Shenghuan quickly threw away the torch, turned around and ran back quickly.

As soon as he came back, there was a sudden earth-shattering loud noise behind him, and everyone only heard a "boom", and then saw a huge flame appear in the middle of the West City, billowing white smoke.

Twenty artillery pieces were actually blown up directly into the sky, and then plunged down, half of the cannon body was inserted into the ground, and the nearby wooden houses were violently blown by the air waves, and all collapsed in an instant.

Jin Shenghuan, Dai Jinghong and the others shook their bodies, and they were almost shocked to sit on the ground, their faces turned pale with fright, and they covered their ears one after another.

With this explosion, I am afraid that it will be able to catch up with the big explosion in Beijing that year.

Sixty miles away in the Qing army camp, Duoduo was sleeping soundly, when he suddenly heard a loud noise, and then the earth trembled slightly, startling him to sit up from the bed suddenly.

He was frowning slightly, his face was puzzled, and a member of the general opened the curtain and came in, and said in a panic: "Lord Wang, something may have happened to Xingyang."

Duoduo was shocked when he heard this, and instantly fell asleep, and suddenly got out of the bed, and hurried towards the general, his face was full of hideousness, and he couldn't believe it: "What did you say?"

At this time, on the wall of the Tiger Prison Pass, thousands of soldiers were already in an uproar, and they flocked to the edge of the city wall one after another, looking to the southeast.

They also faintly heard an explosion, and now they are looking in the direction of Xingyang, flashing with bursts of red light.

"Jie Shuai, what's going on?" Bai Wang hurriedly walked up from the city.

Li Yan pointed to the distance, "Look! ”

Bai Wang looked at it and was suddenly shocked, "It's Xingyang!" ”

Li Yan's heart, which had been tense for many days, finally relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face, "The explosion just now, coupled with the firelight, Xingyang Duoban was attacked by surprise and fell. ”

"Who did it?" Bai Wang asked reflexively, but the tunnel immediately reacted, except for the person from southern Henan, who else?

Li Yan couldn't hide the look of relief on his face, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it's Yihuan, he didn't let me down!"

Bai Wang groaned slightly, nodded his head, and let out a heavy breath in his nose, "Yihuan, righteousness!" ”
