"Has Lotus Town been taken?"
Li Shaobin looked at the black smoke rising in the city and asked.
Now that the city is broken, the Qing army has only one option to flee south. Therefore, when they attacked Jiujiang, they had already sent a force to attack Lianhua Town.
"It's already been won, and they don't even want to run."
Liu Hansan said.
"The fire in the city is a problem. Fighting the fire requires a lot of troops. I'm afraid our troops are not enough."
They wanted to encircle the remnants of the Qing army, put out the fire in the city, and clean up the rebellious soldiers in the city, because they were not enough.
"The people in the city can be organized to save themselves. Just save the people. The house can't manage that much. The remnants of the encirclement and suppression Qing army are more important. After they escape to Nanchang, we need to work hard to attack the city."
Liu Hansan suggested that there is no better way for everyone, and they can only put aside the interests of the people.
Gong Adai rushed to Nanchang with more than 15,000 remnants. When he arrived in Lianhua Town, he found that the flag on it had become that of Wu Jun.
Gong Adai exploded and ordered an attack.
By now, they had no retreat and could only rush over. If you can't rush over, you can only die here.
Gong Adai predicts that there will not be too many Wu Jun soldiers in Lianhua Town. After all, the total strength of Wu Jun is not very large, and most of them are invested in the siege.
His estimate is not wrong. Wu Jun has only one regiment in Lianhua Town with about 4,000 people.
However, they have the advantage of terrain, they only need to hold a few hills and two intersections, the focus is on the intersections.
The mountain does not need to be heavily guarded, and the Qing army will at least be exhausted for half their lives if they want to cross the mountain with no road. At that time, Wu Jun behind will almost be able to catch up with them.
Therefore, if the Qing army wanted to escape south, it had to break through the two intersections that were only a few tens of meters wide.
At these two intersections, Wu Jun's flintlock troops stood respectively.
"Flush, it's safe to rush over."
Gong Adai shouted, but his generals and soldiers did not cheer up their morale because of his shouting.
They are not stupid either, knowing how terrible it is to attack Wu Jun's flintlock troops. Those who rush in front have almost no possibility of survival.
In this case, no one wants to be ahead. As for if you don't charge and wait, you will be overtaken by Wu Jun behind, it's only those high officials who care about it. For soldiers, it is better to surrender if they are caught up than to die now.
Therefore, when the generals of the Qing army called out soldiers to charge, the soldiers of the Qing army who stood in front refused to move.
"General, you can't rush, you will definitely die if you rush up."
"The general let us go, let us surrender."
"General, let's go around the mountain."
The soldiers pleaded, and some soldiers even knelt down.
Unfortunately, these begging for mercy did not shake Gong Adai's determination. He stabbed several kneeling soldiers to death with a sword and shouted: "Left and right guards, fear not the first, kill without mercy."
Under the intimidation of Gong Adai and the urging of the supervising team, the Qing army launched a charge against Wu Jun.
"Pia."
Gunshots sounded, and the Qing army rushing forward fell a group, but they were still rushing. They could no longer stop. Once they stopped, they would be knocked down by people behind and trampled to death.
The Qing army rushed to Wu Jun shouting loudly, trying to conceal the fear in his heart with shouts.
Unfortunately, this kind of shouting had no effect on Wu Jun. Wu Jun just put down his guns step by step, continuously killing and injuring the Qing army.
"Prepare, the last round of volley."
After Wu Jun made three consecutive shots, he arranged a final salvo.
Nearly a thousand guns fired at the same time, and the Qing army, which was only a dozen meters away from the Wu army, fell one after another. The soldiers rushing in front were not spared and all fell.
Two or three hundred people fell directly in this wave, and the Qing army in the back could no longer withstand the pressure of death, and directly climbed up the hillsides on both sides.
There are strong enemies in front and the supervising team behind, they can only escape to the mountains on both sides.
This way of escaping, the Qing army supervising team and officers could not stop it. Even some low-level officers also joined the ranks of fleeing, and they did not want to charge to death.
This kind of accident almost looked silly Wu Jun. They were all ready to countercharge and prepare for a **** battle. As a result, the Qing army had already rushed in front of them and even escaped before the battle.
"Reload and stay alert."
The commander of Wu Jun shouted, anyway, their task is to defend this mountain pass, and the others don't need to be concerned. If the enemy does not rush up, they can still have fewer casualties, which is a good thing.
Those soldiers who climbed up the mountain basically no longer pose a threat.
This kind of hillside with no roads and lush trees is not so easy to go up. Basically, the people who climbed the hillside were already tired and half dead. When they climbed the hillside and faced the Wu Jun stationed behind the hillside, they could only surrender obediently.
"hateful."
Gong Adai stomped straight and angry, but it was a pity that his morale had fallen to this point, and he couldn't help it.
"General, the Wu Jun cavalry behind have caught up."
When Gong Adai was having a headache, the messenger behind reported a worse news.
"General, surrender. In this case, no one wants to fight anymore."
Gong Adai's subordinates persuaded that the army was defeated, and the morale was gone and there was no chance.
Now even if Gong Adai ordered the supervising team to kill those soldiers one by one, they would not charge again, maybe those soldiers would mutiny on the spot.
After all, Wu Jun’s firecrackers looked much more terrifying than the supervising team. The supervising team at least used cold weapons, and everyone was still 50-50.
But to attack Wu Jun's firecrackers, that would be a life of nine deaths.
Gong Adai was still hesitating, but the Qing army that had fallen behind had already surrendered spontaneously.
If you don't surrender, you can't do it. Wu Jun won't be polite with them. If he doesn't surrender, he will shoot and shoot with grenade.
In order to survive, some of those soldiers got to know their commander directly, then threw down their weapons and surrendered.
In order to save their lives, some officers took the lead in throwing away their weapons, leading their subordinates to surrender to the Wu army.
Someone took the lead, and the remaining soldiers began to follow suit.
Others have surrendered. What's the point of struggling?
As more and more soldiers surrendered, Gong Adai was completely hopeless.
Seeing that Gong Adai was still undecided, several of his men simply slammed into Gong Adai's body, and the others also greeted Gong Adai's soldiers.
After Gong Adai and his soldiers were resolved, there was no resistance to surrender. The Qing army threw away their weapons one after another, and then the big stone in his heart also fell.
