Since Zheng Sen refused to negotiate peace and attacked from Jinxia, Dasu had held out for three months, and the Zheng army outside the city had also besieged it for three months.

Zheng Sen learned the lesson of Nanjing's defeat and did not give Dasu any chance to delay the army at all, and on average, every five days, Zheng Sen would organize a fierce attack on the city of Fuzhou. If it weren't for Dasu's firm control of all the Qing troops in Fuzhou, and the opening of the treasury army, and the Manchurian soldiers, I am afraid that Fuzhou would have changed hands after only a few strong attacks.

Zheng Jun is longer than the water division, but shorter than the land division, the original Northern Expedition into the river carefully arranged tens of thousands of land divisions are buried in the city of Nanjing, the generals Gan Hui and Yu Xin are called the Qing army to capture, although both were rescued by the Taiping army, but with the rescued tens of thousands of Zheng army soldiers were left under the command of Zhou Shixiang, Zheng Sen has several letters to ask for the return of these soldiers, were delayed by Zhou Shixiang for various reasons. This move made the momentum look at the huge Zheng army lacked the strength of the land battle, besieged the city of Fuzhou for three months, the Zheng army could not break the city every time it attacked, that is, the loss was that the land division was not strong, several times the artillery was blasted open, and the soldiers also stepped into the city of Fuzhou, but they were repelled by the Qing army in the city in armor, resulting in a failure.

In this regard, Zheng Sen regretted it very much, and often said to the left and right that if Ganhui and Yu Xin were there, Fuzhou City would have been taken long ago, and Dasu would have been captured early. It's a pity that the truth is not as Zheng Senyi wants, and he has only helplessness. Fortunately, Fuzhou is already a lonely city, and Dasu is a bird in a cage, and sooner or later he will be trapped alive and dead. Zheng Sen saw the situation very thoroughly, he knew that it was impossible for Dasu to have reinforcements, Guangdong and Jiangxi were under the control of the Taiping army, and the only support he could get was in the direction of Zhejiang. The strength of the Qing army in Zhejiang is not strong, I heard that Ma Jinbao has hit the city of Hangzhou, but it is thought that Zhao Guozuo, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and Tong Guoqi, the governor of Zhejiang, are now too busy to take care of themselves, and it is impossible to have troops to support Dasu. In other words, even if Zheng Sen can't capture Fuzhou City, as long as he is trapped for a few months, Fuzhou will be self-defeating, after all, the food in the city is also limited. No matter how good Dasu is, he can't solve the problem of his belly.

A few days ago, news came from the southern capital that Yu Xin died in Guazhou, Jiangbei, which made Zheng Sen feel quite uncomfortable. He was annoyed with Yu Xin, if it weren't for Yu Xin, he wouldn't have lost so badly in Nanjing, but he was also very sad to know Yu Xin's death. That day, he stayed alone in the tent for a long time, and his mind was full of the past when Yu Xin came to join the army. In the end, Prince Min could only sigh.

Tang King Zhu Yuyi was proclaimed emperor in the southern capital, and after the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, Zheng Sen was crowned the prince of Fujian. Nandu specially sent a squire to Xiamen to proclaim the decree, and sent the golden seal of the king of Fujian, when Zheng Sen was leading the army to attack Fuzhou, so the prince Zheng Jing came forward to receive the envoy of Nandu, but Zheng Jing could not call the mark on this matter, so he quickly passed the Fuzhou camp.

After Zheng Sen learned of this, he discussed with Chen Yonghua and others, and decided to take over the title of Prince Min of the Dingwu Imperial Court, and later Zheng Sen ordered the household official Zheng Tai to return to Xiamen on his behalf to accept the canonization of the Prince of Min of the Dingwu Imperial Court, which made Jinxia think that the feudal lord recognized the Dingwu Imperial Court. But the people around Zheng Sen knew that the vassal lord actually did not agree with the Dingwu Emperor in the southern capital, but now Zhu Yuyi, with the support of Zhou Shixiang, had actually controlled the southern capital and worshiped the filial piety tomb, so that the vassal lord could no longer set up a new monarch, so he had to recognize the Dingwu court. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the feudal lord to explain to the feudal generals, the Jinxia clan, and his courtiers.

After accepting the title of Prince Min of the Dingwu Imperial Court, Zheng Sen did not relax his onslaught on Fuzhou, in his opinion, Fuzhou was already in his bag, and Fujian was his own territory. If he doesn't go to Fuzhou for a day, and if he doesn't solve Dasu, he, the prince of Fujian, will not be able to live up to his name for a day.

After a few days of preparation, Zheng Sen's general, Zhongyong Marquis Chen Ba, personally supervised 5,000 soldiers to attack the city wall of Fuzhou. In addition to 500 carrying ladders and 300 pushing shield carts to attack the camp, there were more than 3,000 archers and gunners, and the soldiers who attacked the fortifications were all strong soldiers who had rested for a few days and were carefully selected from various towns. Before the war, Zheng Sen awarded a heavy reward, whoever can climb the top of Fuzhou City first will get his sword.

The sword of the feudal lord was more motivating than any reward of gold, silver, and jewelry, and the soldiers wanted the sword of the feudal lord, and the officers wanted it even more. As soon as the attack began, the 5,000 soldiers showed an astonishing momentum, which made the Qing troops in the city tremble.

There is artillery at the head of the city of Fuzhou, and after Dasu lost the naval battle last year, he wantonly collected artillery from all over the country and stationed it in Fuzhou, thinking that the Zheng army might take advantage of the victory to attack Fuzhou, so the more artillery in Fuzhou, the better. As a result, the Zheng army did not attack Fuzhou, but went north into the river to attack Nanjing, which made these artillery pieces useless, but now they have come in handy and become a sharp weapon in the hands of Dasu.

Chen Ba was not dazzled by anger, he learned the lessons of the previous sieges, scattered all parts of the city, and minimized the threat of the artillery on the city to his side.

In the rumbling of artillery, the soldiers of the Zheng army rushed to the city, and the two sides fought fiercely, and the city and the city were screaming. At noon, because of the large casualties, Chen Ba had to withdraw his troops. After the Zheng army retreated, there were corpses under the city wall, and the Qing army in the city was also ambushed pieces.

"The feudal lord, the last general is incompetent, please punish the feudal lord!"

After returning to the camp, Chen Ba knelt in front of Zheng Sen without saying a word, pleading guilty for his incompetence.

Zheng Sen did not blame Chen Ba, but stepped forward to help him up, and comforted him with kind words. The other generals of the domain also stepped forward to comfort Chen Ba, saying that victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and they should not be taken to heart when they are loyal and brave. Chen Ba stood there in a sullen voice, looking at the head of Fuzhou City with an unwilling expression.

"The lord of the domain, Da Su is worthy of being a fierce general of the Qing court, and there are rules and regulations for war and defense, and his subordinates think that it is not appropriate to rush to success, but to delay the plan. Replace the battle with siege, trap him for a few more months, and see if Dasu is three-headed and six-armed. ”

Chen Yonghua advised Zheng Sen not to rush to break the city, to avoid the soldiers of the domain from needlessly folding under the city, and now to fight with the siege, the siege is long, the city is cut off food, and Dasu has to bow his head if he does not bow his head when the time comes.

Zheng Sen shook his head and said: "This clan heard that the king of Jin attacked Xinhui back then, and the Qing army in the city fed on the people, so the king of Jin had no choice but to withdraw his army... This clan is worried that if the siege continues, this Fuzhou city will repeat the tragedy of Xinhui. ”

When Chen Yonghua heard this, he remembered that the king of Qi in Nanjing was a survivor of the Xinhui tragedy, and heard that his parents, wife and children were all killed and eaten by the Qing army, so he struck a blow, so that there was a situation of restoring the southern capital today. If the Xinhui Qing army had not killed the blood relatives of King Qi back then, perhaps there would not have been a Taiping army, and there would not be today's situation.

Chen Yonghua was worried that the feudal lord would relieve the siege because he took pity on the people in Fuzhou City, so he hurriedly persuaded: "Soldiers, there are also murderous things. If Fuzhou is not a woman, this Fujian land will not be owned by the feudal lord, and it will also damage the prestige of the feudal lord. ”

"These clans all know, and the clan is just a little unbearable..."Zheng Sen hesitated, "Or will the clan agree to Dasu's invitation?" ”

On the same day, Dasu sent Fujian Zuobu Zheng Zhang Jing to Xiamen to negotiate, and if Zheng Sen transported the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners in Fujian and their families back to the north by sea ship, Dasu would hand over the whole province of Fujian. This condition was rejected by Zheng Sen on the spot, because in his opinion, the Qing army in Fujian was not a strong enemy at all, and he took Fuzhou as if he were looking for something. But now, he can't help but think about this matter, because in the siege of the city for three months, although the Qing army in the city suffered great casualties, but his domain also lost tens of thousands of soldiers.

Chen Yonghua was also a little hesitant, if he agreed to Dasu's request, then there would be no more casualties among the feudal lords, but once the news of the feudal lord sending the Fujian Qing army back to the north by sea ship came out, it would inevitably affect the reputation of the feudal lord, and there were pros and cons to this matter. When he was in distress, Liu Guoxuan hurriedly came to report, saying that Huang Zhao wanted to see the lord of the domain.

"Huang Zhao is not in Siming to assist the prince, what are you doing here in this domain?"

Zheng Sen was a little surprised, before he personally conquered, he ordered his eldest son Zheng Jing to stay in Xiamen, and ordered his brothers Zheng Tai and Huang Zhao to assist his eldest son in handling Jinxia political affairs. The eldest son is still very young and inexperienced, so Zheng Sen, the big and small government affairs of Jinxia, are actually handed over to Zheng Tai and Huang Zhao to deal with. Now that Huang Zhao suddenly came from Jinxia, could it be that there was something urgent?

With confusion, Zheng Sen asked Liu Guoxuan to bring Huang Zhao, and when he saw Huang Zhao, Zheng Sen was taken aback, because Huang Zhao in front of him still had the appearance of a high-spirited minister, he was extremely embarrassed, his body was full of dust, and his eyes were full of bloodshots, and he looked like he hadn't slept for many days.

"Domain lord, your subordinates finally live to see you!"

The moment Huang Zhao saw the lord of the domain, he instantly burst into tears, and while crying, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Zheng Sen.

"What's going on, why are you crying?"

Zheng Sen was very stunned, and subconsciously took the letter from Huang Zhao's hand, but it was the handwriting of his in-law Tang Xianyue, and the letter was only eight words - "If you don't govern your family strictly, how can you govern the country?" ”
