In the next few days, the Ming army led by Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui launched several offensives against Quanzhou City. After the panic, the Qing army defending the city was much calmer, which also caused the Ming army's casualties to gradually increase.

.But even so, Zheng Chenggong still forced Zhao Guozuo to show his trump card and sacrificed some cavalry to barely gain some breathing space.

Nowadays, most of Fujian is under the attack of various Ming armies, and Quanzhou city defense is still in danger. However, every time the Ming army hopes to climb the city wall and gain a foothold, the flanks will be attacked desperately by Xie Yinglong's troops.

No exception.

The Ming army attacked the city, and the defenders resisted desperately. The Ming army was expected to break through the city. Xie Yinglong's troops attacked the flank of the Ming army. The Ming army had no choice but to retreat. This drama has been played out several times, and neither side seems to have shown any intention of doing so.

Bored. On the third day of September, after two days of rest, Zheng Hongkui changed from the haste of the previous times and simply unloaded all the artillery on the ship with Zheng Chenggong, and even rebuilt a large number of siege equipment.

He looked like he was going to take over Quanzhou City in one go.

Outside the city of Quanzhou, a large number of artillery pieces from the Ming army were pouring into the city, pouring out the fury of the Dunbing city in the past few days. The rumbling sound of artillery reached Liushi Village. Xie Yinglong had already obtained the news of the Ming army's unloading of artillery through the scouts in Quanzhou.

They immediately mobilized their troops and horses and tried their best to save the isolated city of Quanzhou, which was under a full blow from the Ming army.

The one who deployed the defense between the siege troops under Quanzhou City and Liushi Village was still Jie Yinglong's old rival Xiao Gongchen. Except on the first day, Xiao Gongchen could barely hold on due to the disparity in strength. As Zheng Hongkui gave Xiao Gongchen additional

After sending troops and horses, Xie Yinglong's attack was not so easy to succeed. However, after dividing the troops again, the siege troops were virtually reduced. In addition, Jie Yinglong launched repeated attacks, which inevitably affected the psychological state of the siege troops.

, the pressure on Quanzhou City Guards was reduced, and his goal was achieved.

After several confrontations, Xie Yinglong and Xiao Gongchen already had a certain understanding of each other's tactical habits. For this rescue, Xie Yinglong knew very well that this would be the Ming army's strongest blow, and he had planned a response in advance.

A battle plan and preparations for a fight to the death.

"Quick, speed up and move forward!"

The army of Liushi Village left the village. Among the lush vegetation in the distance, a pair of eyes stared through the gaps in the grass for a moment, then twisted and crawled away from there. After a moment, those eyes

The owner of the eyes had already passed through the forest and soon arrived behind a hill.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the Tatars from Liushi Village have already moved out in less than half a stick of incense."

"very good."

Half a stick of incense took about 15 minutes. Xie Yinglong's troops left Liushizhai in less than 15 minutes. After calculating the distance, everything was ready. This Qing army happened to be a little more than halfway between Quanzhou City and Liushizhai.

.

………………

After half a stick of incense, the Qing army in Liushizhai had already walked more than half way under the urging of Xie Yinglong. At this moment, they had slowed down to avoid being suddenly attacked by the Ming army. The exploration horses that came out had just arrived.

Back, Xiao Gongchen's troops seemed to be more numerous than before, which seemed abnormal.

After receiving this reply, Xie Yinglong couldn't help but frowned. The Ming army only had so many soldiers. Regardless of these casualties, they were already stretched thin. At this time, Xiao Gongchen's troops increased again, and the attack force increased again.

The number of troops in the city will decrease again. Could it be that the Ming army placed all its hopes on those artillery?

Doubts abounded, but before Jie Yinglong could figure out the reason, a horse on a fast horse rushed towards him in the direction he came from, almost brushing against the marching ranks of the soldiers, and rushed in front of him.

"Commander, something bad is going on. Liushi Village is under siege by bandits!"

Hearing this, Xie Yinglong's heart skipped a beat, and then he grabbed the cavalryman by the collar and subconsciously asked, "Whose bandits are there? How many people are here?"

Riding on the horse, it was like being pulled by Jie Yinglong to lean out, which was very awkward. However, the cavalry knew that the military situation was urgent, but they did not hesitate at all: "When I got back to the commander, the bandit flag was Zhongxiaobo to recruit the general Zhu.

, it looks like there are no less than a thousand people.”

Zhu Chenggong!

After getting this answer, Xie Yinglong's previous doubts were immediately solved, and his eyes suddenly became clear. In an instant, the thought that he had been tricked went straight to Tianling Gai, and the order was issued.

"Go back to Liushi Village, quickly!"

This time the Ming army attacked Quanzhou, it was a coalition of Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui. At this time, Zheng Hongkui's troops made a posture of attacking Quanzhou, but they sent a large number of troops to block the Qing army's reinforcements. This is contrary to common sense. Logically speaking

To put it bluntly, if the Ming army wanted to capture Quanzhou, it would be possible only if they had strong reinforcements based on their original strength. However, now that Zheng Chenggong's flag has appeared in Liushizhai, this clearly shows that Quanzhou

All the arrangements under the city were all a scam. The target of the Ming army was not Quanzhou City at all, but his Liushi Village!

Liushi Village is a mountain village with dangerous terrain and a large area. It is said that it can accommodate tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Xie Yinglong does not have that many soldiers, not even two thousand, but the village can accommodate him and his

If the family members and belongings of his subordinates were lost, the consequences would be disastrous. But the problem was that he had used all his strength to send out troops this time, and the remaining defenders in the stronghold were only a hundred people, so they could not defend it for long.

The news that their hometown was under attack spread quickly, and the Qing army, regardless of the safety of Quanzhou City, quickly changed its rear group into the front group and marched towards Liushi Village.

When I went there, I still needed Jie Yinglong's urging, but when I came back, it was no longer necessary. The large group of Qing troops retreated all at once. Soon when they passed through a mountain road, they saw from a distance that there was an army shooting on the right.

The Ming army under the banner of Pioneer Town formed a formation there.

"Kill past it and you'll find Liushi Village. Rush!"

When the lair was dug out, Xie Yinglong ignored anything else and ordered the army to swarm forward. In fact, even if he did not issue such an order, it was difficult to readjust the formation in such terrain. He could only rely on the soldiers' sense of crisis.

Charge through with force.

The Qing army rushed in with a roar, but the Ming army was still arrayed with spears, like hedgehogs. But before the Qing army could rush forward, trumpets sounded on the hillsides on both sides, and Guo Taihe, the headquarter of Zuohu Town,

Yu Kuan, the head of Youhu Town, raised the flag, and a large group of Ming troops emerged. There was also a Ming army carrying the same flag that the cavalry had seen outside Liushi Village before.

came out, directly blocking the Qing army's retreat, and surrounded them on all sides in this mountain road.

"Uncle Zhongxiao recruits the general Guo Xing."

At this point, Xie Yinglong suddenly realized that not only the arrangements under Quanzhou City were a scam, but also those outside Laoshi Village. The target of the Ming Army was none other than him, the general, and the team he led.

Partial teacher!

"Kill the Tartars!"

On the hillsides on both sides, the arrows fired by the Ming army and the rocks thrown down fell like raindrops on the heads of the Qing army who were in a mess and were tightly packed here and could not move. The Ming army with two holes

The troops lined up their spears and guarded them to the death.

Xie Yinglong knew that he was on the verge of death, so he had to force his soldiers to attack the Ming army's battle formation. However, the formation was chaotic, and both wings were attacked by the enemy. The Qing army's several attacks failed to have any effect. Seeing this, he simply dismounted and took up his troops.

, personally led the troops to attack the Ming army's battle formation.

The commander personally led the charge, and the morale of the Qing army was greatly boosted. They faced the Ming army's arrows and stones and rushed towards the forest of spears. However, a moment later, Xie Yinglong, his soldiers, and servants fell in front of the formation.

The fine armor on his body was unable to block even the thrust of a spear. After being poked with several bloody holes, he had no choice but to fall to the ground unwillingly.

"I won, finally..."

The commander-in-chief of the Qing army died in battle, the morale of the army was disrupted, and morale immediately hit rock bottom. The art of war states that you must fight where the death is, but at this point, the Qing army has lost the desire to continue fighting. Under the persuasion of the Ming army to surrender, one by one

One after another they dropped their weapons and surrendered.

"Guo Xing, Du Hui has also succeeded."

Ke Chenshu reported the results of the battle at Liushizhai, and Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was just a false move at Liushizhai. He sent General Assistant Secretary Du Hui to lead some troops to attack. Now the main force succeeded, and Du Hui also captured it.

With Liu Shizhai lacking soldiers to guard it, it was already a complete victory.
Chapter completed!
