In the battle of Zhecheng, the main force of Guide Town responded to the full effect. Ninety-nine percent of the people either died or were captured. Only those who were particularly lucky could escape and live in heaven.

But in Guide City, the news of defeat was early, because the gentry around the coroner gathered and sent people to report the news.

They are not very clear about the situation on the battlefield, but they can still understand who wins and who loses.

Seeing that the Qing army was in bad momentum, I hurriedly asked someone to inform Guide Mansion City.

He Yucheng's face was full of gloom after receiving the news.

Without Feng Yunlong's men and women in Guide Town, he brought the two battalions of Fubiao and the soldiers guarding the Kaifeng City, he could not even take down the textile factory outside the city, let alone deal with Zhao Liang's main force.

The government office was filled with sorrow and mist.

Governor He Yucheng, governor Jiang Lan, and governor Zhong Wencheng of Guide Prefecture, these are the only "high-level" officials left in Guide Prefecture. In addition, the deputy general of the Central Army and the governor of Kaifeng City, as well as the other officials, gathered together to discuss how to defend the city. They only discussed for most of the day, but they were not sure about the key points.

What is the point of getting? It’s not as strong as others, and no matter how you think about it, it’s fake.

The gentry who sent people to report the news said that they heard the rumbling cannons, just like Xia Lei shaking, which was obviously inconsistent with the few mountain-slashing cannons in Feng Yunlong's hand. This means that the thief army has a large number of cannons, so no wonder Feng Yunlong was defeated.

But after understanding this, except for the mental and morale of the people, the birds have no effect.

There were only a few cannons left in Guide City, and even the textile factory outside the city could not be hit. The latter was piled with layers of sacks of earthblocks outside the wall by the Zhao family. It is said that there were also earthblocks piled up inside the wall. The cannons had been hit for several days, but they were not used by birds!

This is already very hurtful. If you hear the news that the main force of Guide Town in Zhecheng will be even more bleak.

When Zhao Liang and his army arrive, can Guide still have a good time?

The truth becomes clearer the more you argue.

Although no one is willing to speak out, the conclusion that Guide City cannot be preserved after discussion has been planted in everyone's hearts.

Seeing that he couldn't speak out, He Yucheng sighed in his heart, and he could only be shameless.

Suddenly, he said: "Everyone, the soldiers in Guide Mansion are few and weak, and if there are no reinforcements, it is difficult to defend the city. I am going to leave the city overnight and transfer the troops from Hebei Town to support him. What do you think?"

The troops in Hebei Town have already crossed the Yellow River. If they can really come to rescue them, they will be able to kill them before the city of Guide is broken.

But in that case, Kaifeng would be opened, and the bandits in Heluo divided into one group to advance eastward, and along the Yellow River, you could enter Kaifeng City.

The Beijing flag soldiers led by Wu Mitai, the Grand Secretary of Dongge, can only pass through Baoding, and the Zhengding Town soldiers, the most southern of the green flags of the six towns in Zhili, have only arrived at Shunde and Guangping. How many days are there to cross the Yellow River?

So no one here is fool, how could he not know that He Yucheng is going to escape at the last minute? He is looking for an excuse for his next run away?

But don't say that the excuse is very suitable, high-sounding, and natural, except for being a little shameless.

"Sir, go and come back early, and we are waiting for reinforcements like children looking for their mothers." Zhong Wencheng said with a choking sob that he was the magistrate of Guide Mansion. When the prefect and the Tongzhi were both plundered by the thieves, he was the highest local official. He was responsible for defending the territory and could not escape no matter what. In this way, just be a little bit a little and sell He Yucheng.

The governor Jiang Lan's mouth twitched, and he was more shameful than He Yucheng.

"Sir, go early and come back early." When the others saw that Jiang Lan did not follow the trend, they hurriedly agreed with He Yucheng in unison.

It’s better to just walk one than to leave both, right?

But some people inside were spinning their eyes, and they didn't know what was thinking about them.

That night, He Yucheng left the city and fled north overnight. The next day, the Zhao army's troops had not seen it yet. The gentry in the city knew that the governor had fled north, and they all rushed out of the city.

Jiang Lan ordered the city gate to be opened, and the rumbling team of cars and horses that escaped from the city blocked the city gate.

Knowing that the Qing soldiers outside the city were returning in the afternoon, they found that the Zhao army was leading the troops.

Only then did Jiang Lan order the city gate to close and at the same time, the Qing army outside the city was transferred to withdraw to the fourth pass.

"Sir, your move is really amazing."

The master beside Jiang Lan gave him a thumbs up.

The soldiers inside and outside the city were completely devoid of morale, and the gentry and the people were all panicked. It was inevitable that he could not defend the city under such circumstances.

But what about the culprits?

No matter how you look at Jiang Lan’s responsibility, he did not escape at the last minute, which caused the unrest and shock of the military and civilians?

The Zhao army came from the west and surrounded Guide City from all directions as soon as it appeared. Zhao Liang was not worried about the resistance of the Qing soldiers of Guide.

On the way here, Feng Yunlong gave all the explanation.

The explanation is clearly explained how many people, guns and cannons are left in Guide City.

In Zhao Liang's eyes, such a Guide City could not stop his heavy blow.

So there is no need to play the trick of three missing one.

It’s more refreshing to surround the city directly and take it in one pot.

The rumbling sound of cannons that night completely enveloped the entire Guide Mansion City.

Zhao Liang did not choose to launch an attack immediately, but just used a cannon to attack Yi night.

On the next day, I started to attack the city after breakfast.

There are no Qing troops in the four passes of Guide Prefecture, and they have been bombarded by the Zhao army's cannons in Huicheng City.

Then the mortar cannon and the sharpshooter started to enter the fourth pass early this morning and spoke to the city.

The Qing army was not afraid to show its head.

The flowering bullets shot from the mortar cannon are even "fresh" things that many guards have never seen before.

The Qing army could not stand firm on the top of the city, so there was no way to talk about the suppression outside the city.

The Zhao army soldiers first passed through the moat, broke the iron chains of the suspension bridge, and then a special blasting team led the guy to the city gate.

This is a very novel siege model, and the one who bullies the Qing army is not prepared enough.

The one who bullies the Qing army is untenable at the top of the city.

The mortar was washed underground, and the medicine powder prepared by the Qing army at the city wall became an accomplice of Zhao army, while the others such as tincture oil, wood, boiling water were all in a mess and could not be used at all.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the medicinal powder bag was loaded, and the long fuse was dragged to the moat, ignited, and exploded.=

"boom."

A loud bang came from the city gate. Many Qing soldiers who hid in the city gate felt that the mountain was shaking, and the strong Guide City Gate turned into paper. They either died on the spot or were rushed out by shock waves. Even if they were not dead, they seemed to be drunk and could not stand up.

Many people are dizzy and never move again.

"Kill!"

"Run~~"
