It didn't take long for the news to reach Zhu Cixiang's ears.
"What???"
Zhu Cixiang's eyes showed strong surprise.
"Li Dashan successfully captured Daming Mansion??? How is this possible???"
"The general used the tactic of hiding by day and emerging at night. After paralyzing the enemy, he then concentrated all the gunpowder on the weak points of the Damingfu city wall, then blew the wall open and took advantage of the shock of all the enemies.
Then concentrate the superior forces, first kill all the Manchu generals, and then successfully occupy Daming Mansion!"
The orderly soldier said to Zhu Cixiang in front of him, somewhat out of breath.
Hearing the words of the messenger, a hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Cixiang's eyes.
I see!
It's dynamite!
No wonder, the Second Guards Army has been asking for explosives, and Song Yingxing even helped them train explosives 1
It turned out to be something that had been planned for a long time!
A trace of emotion flashed in Zhu Cixi's eyes. For Zhu Cixiang, this was definitely a good thing.
"Li Xi! Notify the Ghost Face Army and rush to Daming Mansion immediately to reinforce the Second Guards Army!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
Li Xi on the side had a faint smile on his face, and soon, Li Xi left quickly.
And this news.
Soon it spread to the south of the Yangtze River through the Huangming Notice.
"Excuse me! The Second Army of the Prince's Guards, with less than 20,000 troops, attacked for hundreds of miles, captured Daming Mansion, and killed more than 2,000 Manchu bannermen! There were more than 30,000 Green Camp lackeys!!!"
"Excuse me! The Second Army of the Prince's Guards, with less than 20,000 troops, attacked for hundreds of miles, captured Daming Mansion, and killed more than 2,000 Manchu bannermen! There were more than 30,000 Green Camp lackeys!!!"
This news quickly began to spread, and all the Jiangnan scholars showed surprise in their eyes.
Second Guards Corps??
More than 10,000 people captured Daming Mansion???
This is all true and false!
But now it seems that this news cannot be false, because Daming Mansion is an important town and cannot be hidden from anyone!
Everyone's eyes were full of shock.
What is the origin of this Second Guards Army?
Never heard of it before!
Does His Royal Highness still have such power under his command?
The eyes of all the scholars were full of curiosity.
"Okay! Okay!"
Huang Zongxi's eyes were full of excited smiles. He slammed the newspaper in his hand on the table, his face was full of excitement!
After the daimyo is conquered, can Beijing be far behind?
It can be said that among the few unhappy people in Jiangnan, Qian Yiqian should be the one.
At this time, Qian Yiqian's face was not very good. He looked at the news in front of him, but he did not dare to say anything more. This kind of thing was a good thing no matter how he said it, and he did not dare to complain.
But he himself hates His Highness the Crown Prince very much, especially some of His Highness the Crown Prince's policies.
Throwing the Huang Ming Bulletin aside, Qian Yiqian continued to read, deciding not to comment.
On the other side, Li Yan and Hong Niangzi were already marching rapidly towards Daming Mansion with the newly reorganized Ghost Face Army.
"The Daming Mansion should be right ahead!"
The red lady asked Li Yan standing aside with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
Li Yan nodded, his expression slightly serious.
"It's amazing! This Li Dashan is really amazing. I never realized before that this brother is so amazing!"
The red lady's eyes were full of emotion and she said to Li Yan who was standing aside.
Li Yan smiled.
"I've heard about how powerful Li Dashan is! This man is extremely smart and extremely aggressive at heart. Even though he always seems to be smiling on his face, he is really ruthless at heart!"
Li Yan had a look of emotion in his eyes.
At this time, their army quickly saw a group of cavalry in front of them heading towards Daming Mansion.
"Looking at their armors, they should be cavalry going to Daming Mansion for reinforcements! What do you think, do you want to fight or not??"
The red lady turned her head and looked at Li Yan aside with a serious face.
"beat!"
After just pondering for a moment, Li Yan spoke directly without much hesitation.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
The soldiers around them quickly started loading bullets.
The soldiers followed quickly.
"Bang bang bang!"
A round of Lubi gunfire was fired, and hundreds of cavalry fell to the ground in an instant.
The more than 10,000 green battalion cavalry in front were about to rush for reinforcements. At this time, they were forced to turn around and look at Zhu Cixiang and others aside!
He immediately rushed towards Zhu Cixiang.
At this time, Lumi Gun was still changing bullets!
Changing bullets for this kind of front-loaded musket is very complicated and troublesome. Zhu Cixiang said this a long time ago, and it is a somewhat troublesome thing in itself.
Therefore, Zhu Cihong had already found Song Yingxing a long time ago and had the possibility of setting up a flintlock musket.
There is also the issue of bullet development, which is a very complex topic.
Song Yingxing doesn’t have any good ideas!
Seeing that these cavalry were about to rush in front of everyone, the surrounding soldiers finally filled their ammunition again, under the orders of one, two, and three from around them.
"Bang bang bang!"
Another volley fired, and the surrounding cavalry killed and wounded hundreds of people in an instant!
In total, there were nearly a thousand people!
However, the movements of these cavalrymen still did not slow down at all, and they continued to rush towards the ghost-faced army.
"Change!!!!"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Li Yan said to the soldiers around him.
The soldiers around them all raised their Rumi guns almost instantly, revealing the steel swords on them!
Like spears, they were raised one after another, and the surrounding cavalry had already rushed in.
Swish, swish, swish!
The steel knives around them all slashed at the soldiers on the side!
Soon, the cavalry rushed over, and both sides suffered casualties!
But soon, many soldiers of the Ghost Face Army actually started to cut the legs of these cavalry!
As a result, many cavalrymen had their legs chopped off!
The steel knives on these guns were beyond the expectations of these cavalrymen.
The cavalry's charge did not cause any special casualties to the Ghost Faced Army, but many people still died. However, many cavalry people also died at this time.
The two sides actually started fighting together!
Neither party gained anything.
Soon, the cavalry began to pull away, and at this time, some people in the gun array began to continue to load their guns, while others began to continue to show their sabers!
"Bang bang bang!"
Thousands more cavalrymen died!
After experiencing heavy losses, these cavalrymen could no longer hold their nerve and quickly began to retreat!
