Chapter 341： Three-way pawn

The two men each brought more than 10,000 troops out of the city and crossed the Qiantang River.

Originally, Zhu Yihai asked them to stay on the south bank of the Qiantang River even if Hangzhou could no longer hold them.

But now, the two of them don't have such thoughts.

Even the city wall couldn't stop Wu Jun, and the river couldn't bring them a sense of security. It was better to stay as far away as possible.

"I plan to take my troops to Jinhua and rely on the mountains to continue to resist."

Fang Guoan said that he was really afraid of Wu Jun now, and he didn't dare to compete with Wu Jun head-on.

Ever since, he wanted to withdraw his troops to Jinhua and Huangshan, and then rely on the complex terrain of those mountains to fight Wu Jun.

Fighting in the mountains, Wu Jun will face serious logistical problems, and certainly not many people will go there, and he will not bring cannons.

Moreover, in the complex terrain of the mountainous area, it is not easy to form a formation, and the effect of the flintlock is greatly reduced.

In the mountainous area, Fang Guoan is familiar with the terrain and has the advantage of the home field, which is convenient for using meters and ambushes.

In short, fighting in the mountainous area is very advantageous to the opponent's national security, so he thought of withdrawing his troops to Huangshan and Jinhua.

"Then I will withdraw to Ningbo and resist directly."

Wang Zhiren said.

In fact, he wanted to return to Ningbo, find a chance to catch Zhu Yihai, and then dedicate it to Wu Jun to see if he could get the treatment that Wu Changqing had promised.

If he can, he will do so without hesitation.

Anyway, he didn't want to fight Wu Changqing anymore.

The biggest pain of fighting with Wu Jun is that you never know what novel things they will come up with next time, and you will be caught off guard every time.

The wall can't stop it, can it be the mountain can stop it?

With that little tax from Jinhua, how long can it last only for the army?

Wang Zhiren was not optimistic about Fang Guoan's decision, and felt that Fang Guoan was just dying.

Now Wu Changqing is unstoppable, and it is the wise choice to follow the general trend. Sooner or later, he will have to meet and break the blood.

"Then don't pass it."

The situation was urgent, Fang Guoan no longer inked, took his troops, and withdrew westward towards Jinhua.

And Wang Zhiren, with his own troops, withdrew to Ningbo.

In Hangzhou, the remaining troops continued to resist.

However, they are also on the verge of collapse.

Had it not been for Fang Guoan's abdomen would be suppressing, the soldiers underneath would have dispersed.

There are walls that can’t be guarded, let alone the street fighting in the city.

Many soldiers who are clever and experienced in combat have actually guessed that those high-ranking officials may have already escaped, and they are acting as the abandoned sons of the troops after the break.

In this case, they did not fight to death, one by one, they fought and retreated, and even when they found an opportunity, they slipped into the house and escaped.

"Let down your weapons, surrender and not kill."

Just when the Ming army was unstable, Wu's Qing suppression troops shouted a unified slogan.

It is better to be able to catch alive than to kill the opponent.

There is no grievance between the soldiers, and even in the two armies, many people are from the same village.

Even if they are not from the same hometown, everyone is at least Han. It's really unnecessary to **** in the same room.

Hearing Wu Jun's call, the soldiers of the Ming Army wanted to surrender even more.

"Don't believe their words, they are all deceptive. Those who surrender will definitely not end well."

Fang Guoan's heart will shout.

However, what he said was too convincing. The soldiers of the Ming Army had never heard of the rumor that Wu Jun had killed prisoners.

On the contrary, there are many rumors that Wu Jun treats prisoners leniently.

Many soldiers who did not have a supervising team by their side began to throw their weapons and surrender. Soldiers from other places also began to follow when they saw it.

This made Fang Guoan's confidant extremely anxious. He personally rushed to the two soldiers who had surrendered, waved a broad knife, and slashed at those soldiers.

This action angered several other soldiers, and they stabbed each other without paying attention.

As soon as the commander died, the other supervisors immediately gave up the supervision.

After all, not everyone is a diehard, everyone wants to survive.

Without the commander's suppression, other soldiers surrendered faster. Soon, there was no large-scale resistance on the streets, and Wu Jun easily took over.

Two hours later, Hangzhou returned to calm, and the collapsed soldiers in the city were basically eliminated.

In this battle, Wu Jun killed more than 2,300 people and seriously injured more than 400 people.

These are basically all casualties caused during the battle for the city wall. In that short half an hour, a fierce battle broke out between the two sides, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

After taking down the city wall, Wu Jun basically did not die many more people. The Ming army in the street fighting in the city all fought and retreated without encountering a hard fight.

Attacking a fortified city where 50,000 people are stationed, and only paying more than 2,000 casualties, is not bad.

If this were replaced by the previous traditional siege methods, attacking a city with 50,000 troops stationed would be unlikely to be won at the cost of 20,000.

The Ming army who defended the city suffered even more casualties. More than 5,000 people died in the battle, and there were no serious wounded, because the seriously wounded were also compensated and counted as war dead.

Most of these were also killed in the battle for the city wall. The ownership of the city wall actually determines the success or failure of this war.

Once the city wall was lost, the Ming army lost the will to resist.

There were nearly 20,000 captives, and these were used for those who had no time to withdraw from the city of Hangzhou.

There were nearly 24,000 people in the Ming army who successfully escaped. Wu Jun could not help these people. Their own strength was only 50,000, and they could not be divided to intercept them.

Wu Jun rested in Hangzhou for a day, and then continued to march.

This time they were divided into three groups. The first one led more than 1,500 people to attack Huangshan.

In a small place like Huangshan, there were not many troops stationed by the Ming army, just one or two thousand. Too much, and the taxes around Huangshan can't afford it.

Another route Xue Guiren led 13,000 people to attack Jinhua, Quzhou and other places.

Compared with Huangshan, Jinhua has a large basin and its economy is more developed. During this period, Jinhua was an extremely important city in Zhejiang.

As long as Jinhua is controlled, relying on its ability to radiate to the periphery, basically the entire central Zhejiang area can be controlled.

The Ming army would definitely place heavy troops in Jinhua, so Liu Hansan assigned a main division to Xue Guiren to take charge of the war in Jinhua.

Liu Hansan left thousands of prisoners and garrisons in Hangzhou, and then personally led 30,000 people straight to Shaoxing and Ningbo.

The Ming army has become a frightening bird, and it does not require much force to attack those places.

Bringing fewer people can also reduce the logistical burden. The road from Hangzhou to Ningbo is also quite difficult.
