Inside the Beiguan Gate of Jieyang City, Fengmingshan, the governor of Tongzhi Chaozhou Prefecture and the governor of Chaozhou, watched blankly as more than two thousand Chao Town Green Camp soldiers outside the city walked westward in formation, crossing a wooden bridge over the Beixi Canal in the southwest of the city.

The scene of running away was completely confusing.

What is this for? Is it the legendary escape from battle? Why is this Liu Jinzhong so shameless? Three thousand soldiers beat hundreds of people without winning, and then they try to escape... Even if you enter the city and defend it, it is better than escaping.

Strong!

Now that you have escaped, what will I do? Fengmingshan watched Liu Jinzhong's Green Camp soldiers leave, feeling despair in his heart!

Liu Jinzhong was a powerful military leader, and he had thirteen battalions of elite soldiers at his command. Even if the emperor wanted to kill his head, he must think twice before killing him.

But what should he do in Fengming Mountain? He has no army, and a crime of losing land can kill him at any time...

Just when he was about to lose his head, a rapid sound of horse hooves suddenly came from far and near.

Fengmingshan thought it was "Obai's Eight Banners Soldiers" who were about to rush in. He was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. Before he peed, he heard a familiar voice: "Feng Tongzhi, Obai

They are almost invading, why don't you escape? Do you want to betray the emperor and join Oboi?"

Why betray the emperor and take refuge with Obai? Fengmingshan was completely stupid after hearing this. How could he, a good and loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, become Obai's lackey and traitor? Besides...Obai really didn't

Death? Obai really came to Guangdong?

Thinking of this, he quickly looked forward and saw Liu Jinzhong's godson Liu Erhu arriving in front of him with several cavalrymen.

"Mr. Liu... don't talk nonsense. I am a loyal minister, not a party member of Obai!" Feng Mingshan quickly explained that he could not be labeled as a party member of Obai.

Once this is locked, it will be difficult to wash it off even if you jump into the Yellow River!

"Oh," Mr. Liu nodded, showing an expression of admiration, "If Feng Tongzhi doesn't leave at this time, is he going to die for the city and become a loyal martyr of the Qing Dynasty?"

Zhonglie? Why do you think you are Zhonglie?

Fengmingshan hadn't lived enough yet, and of course he didn't want to be a loyal hero. But before he could explain this to Liu Erhu clearly, a cry of "attack your mother" came from the front.

Fengming Mountain looked intently, and saw one or two hundred "Eight Banners Soldiers" holding broadswords, riding ponies, shouting slogans that Feng Datong didn't understand, and slowly rushing towards the city gate where Fengming Mountain was located.

.

"What are they shouting? Are they really Eight Banners soldiers?" Fengmingshan asked quickly.

"Tongzhi, they should be soldiers of the Eight Banners." Liu Erhu said seriously, "They seem to be shouting 'Kill the faint king'... They are shouting in Manchu dialect!"

"Pounce on your mother" means "kill the faint king" in Manchu dialect? Although Fengmingshan is from Liao, he is not a member of the banner. He is the son of Liaodong refugees who followed Xiong Tingbi and fled into Shanhaiguan during the Tianqi period, so he can't listen

Someone who understands Manchurian.

However, he still recognized the "Kanto Great Sweeping Sword"... If this broadsword were to be cut on the neck, the person's head would fall to the ground.

"Boss Liu..." Fengmingshan saw Liu Erhu was about to run, and quickly stretched out his hand to grab Liu Erhu's reins, "Is your godfather really going to abandon the city and leave?"

Liu Erhu said: "Feng Tongzhi, you have also seen...this is Ao Bai, the third prince Zhu, and Zheng Jing from Taiwan, they have joined forces! How can the Chaozhou green camp withstand it with only three thousand people? I will do it

Dad withdrew his troops in order to keep useful soldiers to defend Chaozhou City for the imperial court! Feng Tongzhi, what are your plans? Are you going to die for the country in Jieyang County, or are you going to keep them useful?"

Fengmingshan said sternly: "Of course I will be useful... I am here to take care of the prefect of Chaozhou Prefecture. The prefecture has not been lost, so how can I die for the country?"

"Okay," Liu Erhu nodded, "then I will escort Tongzhi to Mianhuzhai to meet the imperial minister and report to him that Aobai and his remnants have taken refuge with Prince Zhu San!"

Fengmingshan actually thought it was unbelievable that Ao Bai surrendered to the enemy...but it was important to escape now!

"Okay," Fengmingshan nodded, "Then it's up to you, Boss!"

Liu Erhu succeeded in his treacherous plan, so he naturally stopped delaying and quickly asked his subordinates to give up their horses to Fengmingshan. He also ordered his subordinates to close the city gate immediately after he and Fengmingshan entered the city - the "Eight Banners Soldiers" outside the city had thunder from the sky.

Of course, the city gates can be blown open. Moreover, the north and south sides of Jieyang County have the South and North Creek as natural barriers, so there is no need to dig moats or trenches.

So closing the city gate now will not stop the "Eight Banners Soldiers" outside the city for long.

However, we can still buy some time for Liu Erhu, Fengmingshan, and the 200 green battalion soldiers left in the city by Liu Jinzhong to evacuate. After these 200 people evacuated from Jieyang County, they were divided into two.

Liu Erhu led about twenty cavalrymen and escorted Fengming Mountain towards Mianhu Village.

The remaining Chao Zhen Green Battalion infantry joined the several hundred Chao Town Green Battalion troops who had withdrawn from the Nanxi Bridge area, and together they chased Liu Jinzhong towards Chaozhou Prefecture.

...

When Liu Erhu, Fengmingshan and others escaped from the south gate of Jieyang and fled, Zhu Hesheng had already led more than 200 people to the north gate of Jieyang.

Although Jieyang Beiguan City Tower was bombarded for several hours and was full of holes, it did not collapse and the city gate was intact. This is because the red cannon was relatively far away from Jieyang Beiguan City Tower.

, so the shots were not very accurate, just because the target was relatively large, so the bullets were all fired. But the shells hit relatively high, and most of them hit the upper part of the Beiguan Tower, and the impact points were relatively scattered, so

It looks like the city has been badly beaten, but it is still early to collapse.

However, although the city gate tower did not collapse, it could not stop Zhu Hesheng's heavenly soldiers. Because Fengmingshan and Liu Erhu ran away and took away the green battalion soldiers guarding the city, so Jieyang Beiguan City Tower now has a city but no soldiers.

Of course a wooden door can't stop the heavenly soldiers - the heavenly soldiers have bombs!

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Hesheng sent two hammer-throwers up with grenades, stuffed four or five hammers into the gap under the city gate, lit it on fire and blew it up, destroying the city.

The hinge of the door broke, and the two doors immediately fell down.

At this time, Zhu Hesheng did not know that Fengming Mountain had escaped, and of course he did not know the situation in the city. To be on the safe side, he held up a round shield and a long knife, and carefully rode his horse into the city, fearing that the traitor would use hidden arrows to attack him.

Shoot.

Moreover, he was extra cautious. When he entered the city, he yelled with a Beijing film: "I am the third-class imperial guard Niu Hulu. He Shen, come to Jieyang to capture the rebel Liu Jinzhong, Fengming Mountain, please avoid anyone who has nothing to do with it!"

"

Now is the tenth year of Kangxi, not the tenth year of Chongzhen!

Although there are many Cantonese people who want to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, these people rarely live in cities that are firmly controlled by the Qing government.

So when Zhu Hesheng entered the city, he was more cautious. He did not say that he came to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, so as not to be plotted by the Qing righteous people hiding in the dark. Instead, he clamored to arrest the rebels... Well, this time

This is the strategy of "catch a thief if he calls for it".

Not to mention, his strategy of calling a thief to catch a thief has really fooled many people. Among them are the county magistrate Wu Xiaobao, the third of the four positions in Jieyang County, the chief secretary Zhou Chaoxian and the official Luo Dafa. These three dog officials are quite confused.

, Fengming Mountain, Liu Erhu and the others all ran away. The three of them foolishly led dozens of third-class government officials to guard the county government office. They were still very busy raising money, wine and meat as rewards for the Green Camp soldiers who had fled long ago.

Almost.

When they heard the sound of artillery fire outside the government office gradually subsided, the three of them thought that Liu Jinzhong and Fengmingshan had won the battle, so they all got excited and gathered in the lobby of the county government office to discuss how much money they should allocate for military rewards to the subordinates.

Merchants - Jieyang County is now the commercial center in Chaozhou. It is a very prosperous place!

While the three people were discussing, a quick shift leader who had been sent out by the three of them to inquire about the news came crawling in.

"No, it's not good..."

Is it bad? Why is it bad?

The three unconscious officers were all startled and looked back at the fast class leader.

"Boss Zhang," Dian Shiluo realized for the first time that all the team leaders in the yamen were his direct subordinates, so he immediately asked, "What's going on? Could it be that rebels have entered the city?"

"No, no...the ones who entered the city are not rebels!" Zhang Bantou immediately shook his head, "Yes, they are the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers led by Niu Hulu, the third-class imperial guard, and He Shen!"

"What?"

"The third-class imperial guard?"

"How is that possible? Did you see it wrong?"

"That's right," said Team Leader Zhang, "He's wearing a yellow jacket!"

Yes, he is wearing a yellow jacket! How can this be wrong?

"And it looks very fierce, just like the Heavenly Soldiers of the Eight Banners!" Zhang Bantou is still very careful and good at observation. "He also speaks like a Beijing film... and talks like a Heavenly Soldier! In addition, he rides a horse

A tall horse, it looks like a Pegasus at first glance!"

He dresses like a heavenly soldier, looks like a heavenly soldier, talks like a heavenly soldier, and rides a long-legged horse that only a heavenly soldier can have... If this is not a heavenly soldier, then who is a heavenly soldier?

"And... the guards and the Eight Banners soldiers have arrived outside the gate!" Zhang Bantou asked, "Are the three gentlemen going to greet you, or..."
