Chapter 1080: Autumn Moon on the Peaceful Lake

ο»Ώ

That's right, as Liu Zhaoji predicted, although Yangzhou has a strong city wall, but the red-coated cannons, under the new method of attacking fortifications, can only hold out for about four hours, and the form of war has changed. [To see the latest chapter of this book, please go to Marshmallow], the latest chapter visit:. During the transition period from cold weapon warfare to hot weapons, new tactics will inevitably emerge, and when new tactics first appear on the battlefield, the old one will inevitably have no power to resist in the slightest

。

In fact, during the battle of Yangzhou in real history, on the night of the 24th, the Qing army collapsed the city wall with red-coated cannons. On the 25th, Yangzhou fell, Liu Zhaoji was killed in battle, Yangzhou prefect Ren Minyu, He Gang and others died heroically, and Shi Kefa was killed after being captured. Regardless of the surrender of the Zhang brothers and the Gansu army to Jiannu at that time, the city wall of Yangzhou City was bombarded by red-clothed artillery, and it was indeed not enough for one night.

When later generations talk about the offensive and defensive battle of Yangzhou, what they talk about the most is the unyielding loyalty of Shi Kefa, Liu Zhaoji and others, but they just ignore the significance of this battle in military history---- this is the first large-scale use of artillery in ancient Chinese warfare.

From the beginning of this battle, the previous method of attacking the city with ladder ants was completely abandoned. Later, in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, when the Taiping army attacked Nanjing, in addition to concentrating a large number of artillery, they also directly dug 'holes' under the city wall, loaded tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder and directly blew down the city wall. Feng Yunshan, the southern king of the Taiping Army, was born as a miner, and he was an expert in playing explosives.

Today's Yangzhou has been surrounded by the Duoduo army, the people's order in the city is 'mixed' and 'chaotic', and the reinforcements outside can't even see the root 'Mao', and the fall of Yangzhou is less than four hours.

The 10-day tragedy in Yangzhou has entered the countdown.

Even if they didn't have foresight, Chen Qianfu and Liu Zhaoji knew that they were at the last moment. txtδΈ‹θ½½/But now is not the time for sadness and fear, what they need to do now is to follow the advice of the dead Wang Chuxiu, let Governor Wei and Governor Ren come forward to supervise the armies of Yangzhou, and recruit the gentry in the city to come out and defend it.

Jiannu's continuous cannons certainly made the soldiers and civilians in the city 'chaotic', but it also made Wei Yinwen and Ren Minyu aware of the seriousness of the problem.

Chen and Liu also mastered the troops, buried the pot to cook, gave rewards, and began general mobilization. As for the other armies in the city, they were also arranged separately. Of course, none of these military masters are easy to deal with. In order to let them fight bravely to kill the enemy, the gentry in the city also had red eyes, and scattered these mountains of gold and silver that they earned from selling salt.

The western 'gate' city defense of Yangzhou City is the weakest, and it is directly under the cover of Jiannu artillery fire. Whoever defends this section of the wall will have to pay a great sacrifice. Even if the Zhang brothers are concerned, the Gansu army is not reliable, so Chen Qianfu took the initiative to ask Ying to be in charge of the defense of the West Gate

。

The Henan army has now reached 20,000, but they are all new soldiers, including a large number of family members and auxiliary soldiers, and the real main force of soldiers is only 2,000 together. How long can this little bit last?

But he couldn't think about it anymore.

*******************************************************

As the sun sets, the weather in Yangzhou is very good these days.

In the red 'colored' sunset, Han Dai, the secretary of the military department of the Qing Dynasty, was already drunk, but he still maintained an excellent demeanor. Today, he is dressed in a Confucian shirt, looking at the clear spring in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, blowing a cool breeze, and feeling extremely comfortable.

It can be seen that the original owner of this large courtyard where the old camp of the Qing army is located should be an elegant person, and the halls and pavilions inside the manor are arranged very interestingly, and the clear spring in front of him is enveloped in, and the rockery lotus pond and corridor are built according to the topography of the spring stream.

The best thing is that there is also a collection in Zhuangzi, which is full of more than a dozen shelves and a collection of famous calligraphy and paintings.

I have lived here for many days, but Han Dai likes it here.

He worked very unhappily with Dord, who was a very strong man who had to master everything, no matter how big or small.

Han Daisuo was too lazy to manage military affairs, and handed over all the power at hand. Anyway, if I want to defeat Yangzhou in the Qing Dynasty, it is also very easy to see it, so I won't bother with this god.

After living in this courtyard, the minions in the flag were also obedient, and they didn't know that they had 'got' a Yangzhou thin horse from there. Although it is not as good as Qin Huaiba's 'Yan', he is also extremely handsome, and he understands all poems and songs, and he is all 'fine' in blowing, playing and singing.

The best thing is that Yingying's waist and limbs, gestures, are really demure like 'flowers' shining on the water, and the action is like the wind supporting the willows, I see pity.

With this 'woman', she is even better than countless people in the world.

Han Dai's old tree has a new 'flower', glowing with a second 'spring', and I suddenly feel happy here, and I don't think about it.

Looking at the clear spring and looking at the lotus 'flower', Han Dai couldn't help but chant in a low voice: "Good water, good water."

。 The spring is silent and cherishes the trickle, the green 'yin' shines on the water and loves the sunny and soft, the small lotus only 'dew' the sharp corners, and there are dragonflies standing on their heads. ”

The song 'girl' was obedient, and immediately took out a Xiao pipe, and played it with the beat of 'chanting', which was so harmonious.

Han Dai sang twice repeatedly, only to feel that his heart was open, and he walked up to the singer 'girl' with drunken steps, held her slender hand, and said with a smile: "Xiao Lu is really a good girl, elegant and lovely, the old man can get such a good 'girl' in his old age, but it is God's favor." Otherwise, if you go back to Beijing with your master, your master will definitely not be able to lose you, and I can't say that I can give you a name. ”

The 'girl' face 'revealed' a trace of joy, "Thank you." "You have to bow down.

Han Dai: "You don't need to be like this, you don't need to be like this, tsk, your hands are so delicate and tender, I don't know how to raise them, such slender fingers with Xiangfei bamboo pipes, that's the real 'jade' where can I teach to blow Xiao ......"

At this time, a loud bang came, which shook the body of the song 'girl', and her face suddenly turned white. Even a few cups shook slightly.

"I just can't see your weak and pretty appearance." Han Dai saw the appearance of the 'girl' like that, and he loved her in his heart, so he held her in his arms, and screamed for a long time before comforting: "Don't be afraid, it's Kong Youde who tried the cannon at the West 'Gate', and they have all been in a good mood, and they can't finish it for a while, just get used to it...... No, no! ”

Han Dai was stunned for a moment, let go of the 'girl', tilted his head and listened for a long time: "It's such a dense cannon, at least more than thirty 'gates', is this going to be a general attack, why don't I know?" No, Lao Tzu has to go and see ......" only took one step, feeling that he was very drunk, he sat down again, a little frustrated: "Forget it, how decisive the matter of war is, since he doesn't want me to care, we don't have to use a hot face to stick to his cold ass." Little green, play another song to relieve your boredom. ”

"Yes, sir." Xiao Lu was also well-behaved, and seeing that Han Dai was not in a good mood, he sat down again and blew lowly.

Listen carefully, but it is "Autumn Moon on the Peaceful Lake".

Listening to the tune, looking at the clear spring and the lotus 'flowers' in the pond, Han Dai's heart calmed down.

The sun sets, the breeze comes, and the moon shines.

He is becoming more and more accustomed to the 'fine' lifestyle of the Han doctor, which is called life, it is so comfortable!
