In addition to letting the hot air balloon throw oil, gunpowder and bombs, Yao Qisheng also sent a group of stragglers to board the hot air balloon, enter the sky above Nanchang City, condescendingly shoot the Qing army with rifled guns, and specially select those officers with bright armor to shoot them, and beat the Qing army officers to the point that they dare not show their heads.

Under the multiple strikes of the Ming army, the Qing army in the city suffered heavy losses, and all kinds of defense equipment suffered heavy losses. This is not the most deadly, the most deadly thing is that the morale of the Qing army has been hit hard, and the people have taken off their uniforms and fled home; The Green Battalion refused to go into battle, and even the Eight Banners did not dare to take the lead.

Even if Dong Weiguo, Tong Guozhen, Gent and others organized their own Goshha, wielding knives and cutting off many heads, they still couldn't hold it down. The Qing soldiers whose morale collapsed were like a ball in the water, Dong Weiguo and others took Goshha and suppressed this, but they couldn't suppress that.

The next thing was simple, when the Ming army launched a large-scale attack, the demoralized Qing army was difficult to resist.

Yao Qisheng adopted a multi-pronged approach, letting the Guangdong army and the Fujian army carry a simple cloud ladder to launch an ant-attached siege to the city, followed by the nest car, and set up a sub-mother cannon on the two-zhang high nest car, aiming at the head of the city to bombard, suppressing the defenders' firepower; There were balloons in the sky, which were used to destroy the artillery of the Qing army; After removing the threat of Qing artillery, the Ming army raised a large number of two-zhang high watchtowers, on which stragglers stood and shot condescendingly with rifled guns. Beneath the city walls, groups of musketeers advanced forward, firing a barrage of bullets at the city.

Under the cover of multiple firepower, the high-morale Cantonese army and the Fujian army climbed to the head of the city through a simple ladder, and launched a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the Qing army at the head of the city.

At the same time, the Qiongzhou Army's own elite ironclad soldiers boarded the city in ten large ladder trucks. The auxiliaries pushed ladder carts and braved the rockets that kept coming in, and approached the city walls. Before the ladder car was burned by the dropped canisters of fire oil and rockets, more than 200 ironclad soldiers and more than 100 elite light armoured hand-to-hand combatants had already ascended to the top of the city.

Although the number of ironclad soldiers who landed in the city was small, they were invulnerable. The elite hand-to-hand combat soldiers in light armor were trained by a group of masters such as Cai Jiuyi, who were strong in martial arts, and fought in formations, plus grenades and short guns, with the cooperation of the ironclad soldiers, the Qing army at the head of the city was defeated.

After occupying a piece of territory at the head of the city, more soldiers of the Qiongzhou Army carried simple ladders and climbed up to the head of the city under the cover of the ironclad soldiers and light-armored soldiers at the head of the city. After the hand-to-hand fighters went up first, the musketeers followed suit.

The Qing army defending the city was dazed by Yao Qisheng's combination punches, and the Ming army quickly took control of the city tower and eliminated the Qing soldiers stationed on the urn city, and then opened the city gate.

Ghent, the capital of Manchuria, resisted stubbornly with the Eight Banners, and as a result, the cavalry of Wang [Fu] Chen rushed into the city, and Root met Wang [Fu] Chen, and the two fought for only three rounds, and were stabbed to death by Wang [Fu] Chen under the horse.

Zhao Dengju, the chief soldier of the green battalion, bumped into Cai Dezhong, who had invaded the city, and Zhao Dengju's own soldiers were beaten to pieces by the elite light armor soldiers. Cai Dezhong came to the front, raised his knife and fell, and cut off Zhao Dengju's head with a knife.

Wu Youming was surrounded by the Ming army, and when he saw that he couldn't get out, Wu Youming surrendered.

Xu Sheng, the deputy general of the Green Battalion, was beaten into a hornet's nest by a group of musketeers, and another lieutenant, Yang Yisong, surrendered.

Seeing that the general trend was gone, Dong Weiguo first led people to burn down the warehouse, and then returned to the mansion, drew his sword and killed his wife, children and concubine, and committed suicide by taking poison. But Tong Guozhen didn't want to die, he disguised himself as a civilian, blended in with the people, hid in Tibet for a few days, and waited until the main force of the Ming army withdrew from Nanchang, Tong Guozhen escaped from Nanchang and fled to Jiangbei.

After all, the surname Tong is the marriage surname of Aixin Jueluo, and he is deeply favored by the Manchu royal family, so Tong Guozhen is not afraid of the crime of losing his land, he fled back, at most he was only removed, and after a period of time, he can be reinstated. But Dong Weiguo was different, he didn't dare to run, and he didn't dare to surrender, so he chose to commit suicide.

After more than ten days of siege battles, the Ming army recovered Nanchang City.

While the Ming army from Wuchang conquered Jiujiang and Nanchang, Geng Jingzhong, who returned to the Ming Dynasty, took the Fujian army adapted from the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, with the cooperation of the Nanyang Marines, to recover the city near Nanjing, and then swept through the entire territory of Zhejiang. Because the remnants of the Qing army in the south of the Yangtze River had no intention of resisting, as soon as the Ming army arrived, the Qing army changed its flag one after another. The local green battalions in the prefectures and counties were transformed into Ming troops. The magistrates took off the official palace of the Qing court, cut off their braids, changed into Hanfu Confucian shirts, and waited for the Ming army to come and take over their own prefectures and counties.

The Qing army in the city became the Ming army, and the county lord of the Qing court became the county lord of the Ming Dynasty. After the local green battalion soldiers cut off their own braids, they took scissors and cut the braids of the people in the city and the villagers who entered the city to catch the market.

In this era, because the Qing court ruled for a short time, the work of cutting braids and changing clothes was very smooth, the common people were very cooperative to cut off their braids, and the scholars cut off their braids and changed into Hanfu.

The clothes of ordinary people are relatively indifferent, and many people still wear short fights from the Ming Dynasty, as long as the braids are cut. The more troublesome are the scholars and gentry, some people secretly collect Hanfu at home, and take them out and put them on. And some people don't have Hanfu at home, and they have to take cloth to find someone to make clothes.

For a time, the business of tailor shops in various places was booming, and the gentry and scholars either took cloth to make clothes, or took the robes and horse coats they were wearing to dismantle and change the Hanfu.

When local officials and local green battalions changed their flags one after another, some mountain bandits and bandits who were originally active in the mountainous areas south of the Yangtze River also took the opportunity to raise the banner of the Ming army. The mountain bandits and thieves cut off their braids, pulled up the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and also transformed into officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. If you are more honest, you will wait for the Ming army to accept you. But there are also some mountain bandits and thieves, who want to make a fortune before they are recruited, and take advantage of the chaos to rob the people and harm the township.

The situation in Jiangnan is very good, but it is also a big chaos. The good thing is that in the entire south of the Yangtze River, there is almost no county town with the flag of the Qing court; But the chaos is that most of the so-called Ming officials and Ming troops are rabble, among which they are mixed, all of them are a group of opportunists, and there are many bandits and bandits, Jiangyang thieves, and wanted criminals.

The whole chaos is not only in Jiangnan, but also in Hanzhong. Wu Sangui's army and the army of the camp both arrived in Hanzhong, and the vanguard of the two armies began to fight.

Wu Sangui's vanguard general is Gao Dejie, who is a fierce general, but he has a short temper. Liu Tichun, the pioneer of the camp, led the army into Hanzhong and encountered Gao Dejie. Although both armies played the banner of the Ming army, the enemies were very angry when they saw each other, and the Wu army and the Chuang army launched the first fierce battle in the mountains and hills of Hanzhong.
