Chapter 894

Yang Sichang took the lead in attacking and occupying Cangzhou, and then the army rushed to Dezhou in three ways. As long as he conquered Dezhou, he could enter Qingzhou mansion, which was regarded as entering the land of Shandong, maneuvering and completing the first step plan.

Hong Chengchou's army in Baoding camp also followed suit and stormed Hejian Prefecture. They stormed day and night and fought fiercely.

Hejian Fucheng is bigger than Cangzhou, with more troops to guard, and the army's fighting will is also very tenacious.

Because Cangzhou and Hejian prefecture were both places of northern Zhili and were temporarily occupied by the Chinese army, the Chinese army did not think that they could stick to this place for a long time, so they did not establish a local government organization, but directly handed it over to Wang pangzi, the governor of Dongchang Prefecture.

After receiving the order from the above, Wang pangzi began to formulate a strategy to send the people and squires in the city back, and let him organize an army to escort them to Jinan.

Hejian prefecture has become an empty city. Now, in addition to the army, it is also an army. There is enough food in the city for the army captain to garrison for a long time. For the army, there is food in hand and don't panic.

However, for Hejian Prefecture, they still used the previous strategy, that is, if they can defend, if they can't defend, they will retreat quickly and burn everything before retreating.

After Hong Chengchou knew about their strategic thought, he still thought that as long as they attacked, the Huaxia army in the city would take the initiative to retreat. Therefore, as soon as he set out, he sent out 50000 troops to launch the first round of fierce attack on the city. He wanted to crush the other party and let the other party escape through a strong offensive.

Who knows that the other party did not escape, or stubbornly blocked their attack like a raging wave.

Countless soldiers of the Ming army rushed over crazily, holding shields and pushing shield cars. They braved the enemy's bullets and bullets, rushed through the blockade line, set up a ladder under the city wall, first organized a large number of archers to shoot bows and arrows into the city for support and suppress each other's firepower. On the one hand, they organized a large number of sword and shield men, biting a knife in their mouth and holding a shield in one hand, Then climb up the city and attack it. It's called ant attack.

The power of Chinese arms gunners and cannons is still quite strong, but in the face of the group charge of the other party, there is a feeling of endless killing. More than a dozen rounds of volley, a large number of enemies fell, but they are brave and fearless. They rush forward one after another, and finally let them rush up.

You know, even in the later World War II era, the natural enemy of infantry, organic guns, still couldn't resist the group charge, let alone their Musketeers.

Under the fierce attack of the Ming army regardless of casualties, they suddenly broke through the fire line of the Ming army. After thousands of years of death, they cleared all trenches and sentries outside the city wall and attacked hejianfu city.

There are also cannons in the Ming army. Of course, their cannons are far inferior to the Chinese army in terms of range and firepower, but these cannons can blow up dead people. Hong Chengchou also took out all his cannons and formed artillery battalions one after another to bombard the city. You come and go on both sides, and the fight is very fierce.

It was just a drizzle and a lot of gunpowder was damp, which made the cannon misfire and couldn't play well.

The two sides fought so fiercely. On the first day alone, more than 10000 soldiers were killed, but Hong Chengchou was shocked that they didn't attack Hejian mansion. Under such a fierce attack, Hong Chengchou was surprised that they could still stop it. He asked, "who is the guard of the Chinese army?"

The Chinese army is different from the Ming army. They have many protection regulations in the army. If they did not take the initiative to announce them, it would be difficult for you to know who the generals and officers guarding the city are. Originally, Hong Chengchou thought that no matter who the other party is, I could attack them and cut off his head as a reward.

However, he never thought that the 300000 troops sent 50000 people for the first attack. His soldiers were like a sea of people and a tide. They stormed the enemy. They were so gunfire that they were forced to resist the enemy. It was really a bit powerful.

As far as he knows, the garrison in the city survived no more than 10000.

He is not surprised to say that the other side is the four big managers, the six famous players and the characters of the four small players, but it is neither the six famous players nor the new four small players. It is really strange for him that the defense is so powerful.

The news soon came that the general of the Chinese Army guarding Hejian Prefecture was called Gulian. A head of the Chinese army and the temporarily appointed garrison of Hejian Prefecture used to be a nameless man, starting from a low-level officer and later becoming a car camp commander. He was brilliant in the battle against Liu Zeqing.

Now he led the thousands of people in Hejian prefecture to fight a beautiful war here, which impressed everyone.

Seeing that the other party fought so tenaciously, Hong Chengchou put away his contempt. Hong Chengchou said, "go and persuade this man to surrender. If he is willing to surrender, our commander is willing to make him the commander-in-chief."

The commander gave the order, and the soldiers immediately carried it out. Their envoy, surnamed sun, holding a white flag, entered the city and went to ask for an audience. After receiving the order, he took a basket and entered the city.

Messenger sun entered the city and saw such a big Hejian mansion. His streets were empty. There were no other people except the mobilized army. There were no people here, which meant that it was very difficult for them to place spies or insiders.

This is why they deployed more than a dozen stone catapults outside the city and threw a large number of kerosene fireballs into the city. Fires were lit in many parts of the city and thick smoke billowed, but it did not cause imagined panic.

In the cold wind and drizzle, the Hejian mansion was full of fire and thick smoke. It was really strange. It was all because the other party threw a large number of fireballs made of fierce fire oil. If it hadn't rained and drenched, most things would have been burned, just like Cangzhou.

They launched a fierce attack, and the other side was very stable, like a rock.

Moreover, the soldiers in the city fought and put out the fire in a very organized way. They were not in disorder at all. Ambassador sun thought: it was really done by a famous general. The commander was really smart. He immediately saw the other party's extraordinary place and proposed to surrender. If the other party was willing to surrender, he could quickly take this place and the army went straight to Shandong.

Gurion is tall and has a national face. He looks dignified and powerful. His military uniform looks a little old, and his armor is damaged and scratched everywhere, but he is very spiritual. What is impressive is that he is actually a bald head.

Emissary sun is still muttering inside. Isn't this man a monk? If he was a monk and didn't see a ring scar on his head, sun emissary thought that he should be dysentery. If it wasn't dysentery, who would be willing to shave his head?

What we pay attention to these days is the body and skin, which is affected by our parents. At present, we can't even have a haircut, let alone a bare head.

When Gurion met sun emissary, he wiped his head with a towel. He said to sun emissary, "if you have anything to say, fart. I'm busy in military affairs and don't have time to listen to you."

Messenger sun quickly explained his intention and promised great conditions.

Gurion was a little surprised and wiped his face with a towel. He said, "Hong Chengchou wants to surrender Lao Tzu. He doesn't even think about it. The imperial court is already in the sunset, and the trees are falling and the monkeys are scattered at any time. Who will take refuge in them?"

Sun emissary had to say, "this is the general. You don't know the general trend. My court sent 700000 troops to the south to calm Shandong. If the general doesn't come back early, there will be no chickens and dogs on the day when our army breaks Hejian mansion. It's no wonder that they didn't make a prediction."

Gurion said, "I've sold my life to the Liu family, so I have to work for them. I'm a little strange. I'm a miner. I don't even have the qualification to be a long-term worker for the landlord's family. Why did Hong send someone to surrender to me?"

When the other party said this, the messenger was greatly amazed. Although he was only wearing six grade official clothes, he was the main task transferred by the Ministry of war. He had a very high position around Hong Chengchou. He was a typical official with small weight. Hong Chengchou had to call him brother sun. He was a scholar in the eighth year of Chongzhen in Zhenger's eight classics, and his future was unlimited, This is because the imperial court had a big problem. They were transferred one by one by the emperor to help the local marshals calm the enemy.

Before entering the city, he was still thinking that the guard of Hejian mansion should be a scholar who has read the books of sages, but he is such a rude and uncivilized martial artist. He was surprised that he was mining before. Where did he learn the art of war and strategy from these mining miners? Sun emissary could see that without more than ten years of experience in leading troops, he could not make such a scene.

Sun emissary said, "Marshal Hong saw that the ancient general guarded this place with a degree of advance and retreat. He has the wind of a great general, so he loved talents. If you can work for the imperial court, you can not only wash away the thief's name, but also honor your family and ancestors."

Gurion said: "Master Hong loves talent? It's strange. I don't know what's the word when my shoulder pole falls to the ground. As a rude martial artist, I know to fight hard. I was just a bread and butter man. Thanks to the admiral, I was promoted to a personal soldier, and then gradually promoted to an officer. The ancients had a saying that a scholar died as a confidant. I'm a smelly miner, but I'm still alive If we can achieve today's major events, we will already honor our ancestors. Do we still want to make a success of it? "

Although the other party's words are somewhat disorganized, they speak very clearly and will not accept surrender.

Sun emissary said, "the imperial court has sent out 700000 troops to take this place. It's easy. When the army breaks the city, there are no chickens and dogs left. General, don't you cherish your life? Even you yourself said that you are just a soldier who eats food. Who works for, not sell? It's the right way to leave a useful body and work for the imperial court."

Gurion said, "you're an emissary. It's kind of you to say. I won't kill you now. This is in the play. The two armies fight and don't kill envoys. But I am a righteous man. Since I sold my life to the Liu family, I was born from the Liu family and died from the ghost of the Liu family. I won't call the court parents because the court gave some food."
