Fu Yan was busy in the rear position all morning to deal with the work of the prisoners, so he was not very clear about the problem of Zachdan.

However, the adjutant beside Zachdan had received the relevant report, and he immediately reported it.

"This morning, the Communications Department directly under the General Staff Department sent an urgent report of the military situation by falcon, which was sent back to the headquarters by the liaison officer of our army stationed in Dongjiang Town.

The soldiers and horses of Dongjiang Town launched a formal sabotage war against the territory of the Houjin army in the coastal area of eastern Liaodong.

Among them, the middle road army of Dongjiang Town attacked from the big and small Changshan and Guangludao as the base, and the day before yesterday, broke through a dungeon, killed more than 30 soldiers and Baoyi of the Houjin Army, and has now advanced to the shore about 10 kilometers away.

The army on the North Road of Dongjiang Town chose to send troops from bases such as Phi Dao, Ludao, and Zhangzi Island, and attacked three Jindun Fort and villages, and even reached Phoenix City and other places at the farthest time.

It's not far from the Yalu River, and this team of soldiers and horses from Dongjiang Town is the most courageous

According to the report sent back by the liaison officer, the plan of the Central Route Army was to collect troops and return to the base where they departed in three days.

On the side of the Northern Route Army, because I didn't expect the progress to be so smooth, there was some internal controversy, and it was not too clear when the troops would be withdrawn. ”

Zachdan recalculated in his mind that if Fuzhou City had sent out an urgent call for help before the battle, it would probably take three days for Shenyang City to gather enough troops to support Fuzhou City.

If Fuzhou City really can't be defeated, then based on the safest time, he can evacuate in about 3 days.

In this way, when the reinforcements sent by Shenyang City received the news, they were at least halfway there, wasting a lot of grain, grass and materials.

It also disrupted the arrangement of the soldiers to work in the fields during one of the most critical agricultural seasons of the year.

In this way, the tactical goal is achieved.

Zachdan really hopes that this time the soldiers and horses in Dongjiang Town can also have a little harvest in Houjin, and the morale of the former Ming soldiers and civilians who have been collected by Huaxia will be greatly improved.

Just as Zachdan was thinking, the adjutant interrupted his thoughts, "Commander-in-chief, it's time to eat." ”

He turned his head and did not pick up the food, but first asked, "Have all the soldiers' meals been delivered to everyone?" ”

The adjutant packed the ticket and said, "Please rest assured, the old rules of our army will never be broken, and every soldier below has already got his own meal." ”

Zachdan smiled and took the lunch box, "That's good, let's have dinner too, I'm really a little hungry after a morning." ”

Zachdan was not a poor man, so he had lunch on this hill.

While eating, the adjutant muttered, "It's a pity, several non-commissioned officer comrades of the engineer company who are familiar with the blasting process were separated from our large army during the march in the early stage of the battle yesterday."

Dozens of explosive packs of various components can be made at hand on the logistics side, and if those non-commissioned officers of the engineer company are on the scene, where is there any need to worry about not being able to break through this broken city! ”

Zachdan didn't pick up, because, although he was also very annoyed in his heart, he couldn't show it like a hairy boy, which would take the lead in disturbing the morale of the army. So, Zachdan just pulled the meal with his head covered.

Halfway through his meal, he heard a drum under the city of Fuzhou, and a dozen or so newly built caravans rushed through the moat again, and then began to dig holes under the southern wall of Fuzhou.

The defensive means of the soldiers of the Houjin Army on the city wall are also varied, and these families and countries have taken out all the defensive means they encountered in the Ningjin defense line and the capital.

The caravan had just stopped at the base of the city wall, and the arms of many Houjin soldiers appeared on the top of the city, and the older clay pots filled with lime were smashed to the ground.

The moment the clay pot shattered, the white lime splashed high, and the smoke and lime filled a large area, obscuring the sight of everyone in the area below the city wall.

Riding on the smoke and dust brought up by the broken lime jars, the city was crowded with figures, throwing down piles of grease-soaked straw bundles and even quilts.

Someone also used a cloth bag to sprinkle a piece of gunpowder powder, and the black gunpowder powder flew wildly, making the place under the originally white city wall as if it was shrouded in black smoke.

The Houjin army above, when they just started throwing things, the Huaxia army on the other side of the moat began to shout loudly to make the caravan retreat.

The coated captives pushing the cart under the caravan worked together to push the cart back, and the infantry guns set up not far from the city wall also launched a rapid fire at the battlement position again.

Where the cannonballs hit the city head, in an instant, bricks and stones flew sideways, screaming incessantly, and occasionally, one or two lime jars were broken, and some areas of the city head were also white.

The officers of the Huaxia Army reminded loudly that the soldiers should be responsible for their own battlements, and they must shoot after seeing the figures, so as to protect the siege troops under the city to the greatest extent and the best efficiency.

On the head of the city, naturally, as before, more than a dozen torches were quickly thrown down, and the gunpowder powder flying indiscriminately under the city wall was ignited in an instant, and the entire city wall was full of sparks.

The rotten quilts and straw bundles soaked in grease were immediately ablaze after being stained by Mars, and they immediately burst into flames.

More than a dozen caravans had retreated a little distance at this time, but there were still two that were walking relatively slowly, and they were unlucky to get home, and the caravan that was stained with grease slowly fell into the fire.

"Commander-in-chief, it seems that the Houjin army in Fuzhou City is very well prepared, just relying on these simple siege equipment, I'm afraid it is impossible to easily defeat this Fuzhou City."

Fu Yan looked at the city wall, howling bitterly, and kept rolling the few fire men who wanted to extinguish the flames on his body, and felt that it was time to dissuade his commander.

Although up to now, most of the casualties have been captured by coated prisoners, this tragic scene still has a great impact on the morale of the army.

Zachdan's face remained unchanged at all, and he continued to pull the food, and after swallowing the food in his mouth, he said lightly, "Is there any other plan?" ”

Fu Yan touched the notebook he was carrying, but he didn't open it, but reported in a very familiar tone, "There are other plans, the closest is to dig a tunnel."

However, digging tunnels is also a waste of time, and the moat of Fuzhou Castle is nearly 5 meters wide, so if you dig it from below, you may ······."
