Chapter 414 The same city

Outside Jiujiang City, the river beach is vast.

The site where Zuo Menggeng fought with the Southern Ming army has now become the battlefield of the Xia army.

After Zuo Menggeng entered the city, the left army left outside the city fought and retreated. The gap opened at the north city gate was swarmed in by countless left armies.

It was secondary to these people's attempt to seize the city from the Ming army, and their main purpose was to avoid the Xia army outside the city.

There are only a few troops under Zuo Menggeng are elite. After being ruthless by the Xia army, chaos will soon be caused, not to mention that they had a battle with the Southern Ming army in the city.

It took less than two hours for the Xia army on the river to landing and occupying the entire river, but it was already setting in the west and the sky was dizzy.

Liu Qingfeng had no war horses around him, so he led his personal guards to occupy a small hill on foot, surrounded by more than 20,000 troops from various regiments.

"Commander Liu, the left army outside the city is like Jiujiang City, so why not attack the city at night!"

Liu Qingfeng's deputy general reported that at this time, everyone was only one mile away from Jiujiang City, and temporarily set up a light-colored tent as a command post. The flag on the opposite city could be seen with the naked eye alone.

There were not many people on the top of the city, and they seemed a little panicked. It seemed that Zuo Menggeng's army had not completely occupied the city.

"The left army outside the city has entered the city, have the Nanming army fled?"

Liu Qingfeng asked in confusion, if so, then the Nanming army ran away too quickly... I just don't know if the Nanming army really escaped. If it escaped, would it be given to Nanjing.

Did the Ula army meet?

"The Nanming army has not been seen, I am afraid it is still in the city or has just escaped not far away.

But no matter what, now taking advantage of this momentum, it is better to take down Jiujiang City directly and completely take over Nanming!"

The generals under his command suggested that they would like to take down all the rebels as soon as possible and get rid of these ignorant rebels so that the Xia Dynasty could rule the world and let the people live a good life as soon as possible.

The elders and villagers in Jiangbei all hoped that the Xia army would take over Jiujiang City and go south to complete the great cause of unification. The people in the world have suffered from turmoil for a long time.

"Siege..."

Liu Qingfeng murmured a few words, took the telescope in his hand, and looked at the flag on Jiujiang City that he was tilted. Zuo Menggeng's army's flag and Ma Shiying's flag were mixed together, looking like a panic. I am afraid that the Southern Ming army will still be

In the city.

According to common sense, the Xia army had just crossed the river, and many military equipment had not arrived, and the team had not been rectified yet, so it was not very beneficial to rashly attack the city.

It would be much better if we could wait until later tomorrow and the heavy artillery was transported, and then siege the city.

But, this is just common sense.

Now is the extraordinary time.

"It's dark, and the air force can't see the real scene in the city, can't know the situation in the city, don't know how the troops are deployed in the city... There are not enough artillery transported across the river...

.

But this Jiujiang City must be attacked as soon as possible, otherwise the defeated army will be scattered and it will be difficult to restrain..."

After Liu Qingfeng finished speaking, the generals under his command couldn't help but shine in their eyes. After capturing this city, the regular army of the Southern Ming Dynasty could officially declare its demise.

"Commander, the siege is of great importance. Our group is willing to be a pioneer in siege!"

Soon a young general asked for his order.

"There are two groups!"

"Commander Liu, send us there and you can take down Jiujiang City tonight!"

The generals rushed to send troops.

If you want to raid the city at night, you must have a vanguard team as a breakthrough. Such a team needs to open a gap when the enemy is surprised to facilitate the subsequent large-scale attacks by the comrades.

Such a team was once called "expected death squad", but everyone in the Xia army was rushing to take the lead.

The Southern Ming army in the city may be just the last regular army of the Ming Dynasty. After tonight, there may be no chance to fight with the Ming army. This battle can be said to be of great significance, so everyone wants to compete for glory.

Of course, Liu Qingfeng knew the importance of things, but when it comes to military use, you must plan any time. You must seize the opportunity of the fight and not be too hasty!

At this time, the night was already dim, and torches were constantly lit up around. The soldiers of Xia Kingdom held rifled rifles and approached the city wall step by step.

In the further distance, there were also sounds of gunfire and shouts of killing from time to time. Some soldiers from Xia Kingdom were chasing the defeated soldiers outside the city...

A lot of left troops in the city flocked in, but there were also many defeated soldiers outside the city. It is not an exaggeration to say that they were all over the mountains and fields, but I don’t know how many of them are.

"The first and second regiments form a siege group and strive to win Jiujiang City before dawn tomorrow!

The third regiment of troops will defend the outside of the city to prevent the external defeated troops from attacking... At the same time, Jiangan will also send additional personnel to receive the North Bank's materials. After heavy artillery crosses the river, they will be transported to the city immediately... to attack the city!

….”

Liu Qingfeng ordered in an orderly manner that this final annihilation battle was extremely calm.

The left army in the city has not yet stabilized Jiujiang City, which may be a good time to attack the city. At the same time, there are still some scattered enemy troops outside the city, and there is also a risk of counterattacking.

Liu Qingfeng must take into account all risks.

The generals under his command received the order and quickly stopped the argument. They followed the military orders and quickly cleaned up an area north of Jiujiang City...

At this time, inside the north gate of Jiujiang.

Zuo Menggeng just took the outer wall and climbed the north city gate, but saw the scattered defeated troops. The sound of Xia army guns and cannons can be heard closer...

"Shaoxia Army was indeed quick. How many people did the commander's 300,000 soldiers enter the city?"

Zuo Menggeng asked quickly.

When Zuo Liangyu went south, he claimed to be one million troops. He eliminated the mobs he had recruited from various ranks, and there were at least 300,000 elite soldiers...

Zuo Menggeng's deputy general had just climbed to the top of the city. He looked at the torches on all sides below, shook his head and sighed: "Lord, the Xia army is coming too fast, I'm afraid there are less than 300,000 people!"

"How many are there less than 300,000 people?"

Zuo Menggeng asked, 30,000 people were less than 300,000. He was eager to know how much money he had, otherwise he would not be able to take out Zhang Xin from Xia Kingdom. He also wanted to take down Jiujiang and then take over Jinling.

It's city...

The deputy general looked puzzled, hesitated for a while, and replied: "Lord, there are really not many people in the 300,000 people. The loss of some of the troops on the river will also cause losses to fight with the Ming army, and the Xia army's

Suddenly crossing the river, there were many soldiers outside the city who did not abide by military rules, and when they were hit, they were completely in chaos...

But these are not the most urgent, the most difficult part is...

"Or what?"

Zuo Menggeng asked hurriedly.

"The most difficult situation is that the Ming army in the city has not completely collapsed!

I just fled into the city too quickly, and the Ming army in the city had already entered the city before they had been completely defeated.

Therefore, strictly speaking, we only captured a corner of the southern city... let alone reorganizing the troops in Jiujiang City...."

The deputy general answered.

Zuo Menggeng was shocked when he heard this. He looked towards the north city and found that it was indeed a riot.

"When did this pseudo-Ming army become so tenacious?"

Zuo Menggeng was unbelievable. The city gate was broken, and the Ming army in the city did not surrender, or fled to the north...

In fact, what Zuo Menggeng didn't know was that the Southern Ming court had long been destroyed, and the rest of the Ming army in the city was with a mortality of death. If he could escape, he would have escaped long ago...

Moreover, when Jinling City was captured by the Daxia Kingdom, if Nanming wanted to surrender, there would be a way out if he followed the Daxia Kingdom.

Otherwise, there would be no way out to surrender to the Zuojun's tent.

"If this matter is true... our army is in danger!"

Zuo Menggeng thought for a long time and couldn't help but wail. Even though he had a high opinion of himself before, he knew how difficult his current situation was...

"My army of millions... why is it scattered all the time!"

Zuo Menggeng was puzzled and looked panicked. At this moment, soldiers reported the battle, and the remaining Ming army in the city began to turmoil.

What's even more interesting is that Ma Shiying, the minister of the Southern Ming Dynasty, was also in the city. The two most undealing forces in the Southern Ming court were actually besieged in the same city on the same day.

This is also the situation where the Left Army runs too fast and whether the remaining soldiers of the Southern Ming Dynasty have a way out will cause this unprecedented situation.

"Lord, otherwise you will leave the city and flee. You will leave the wilderness while the night is dark and meet with the defeated soldiers outside the city. Maybe there is a way out..."

The deputy general around him spoke up to him.

In fact, at this time, some people still had the intention of surrendering, and the attack speed of the Xia army outside the city was completely unpredictable.

God knows how many hours the Xia army will be able to attack the city... If it enters the city, it will be even more difficult to escape!

Zuo Menggeng was still hesitating, but he heard the noise behind him even more.

"Not good, Ma Shiying came with her men!"
