Let me explain that there have been things at home these two days. My father-in-law in the ninth day of the lunar month is fifty-year-old, and the thirteenth day of the lunar month is the third anniversary of his death. Because my father-in-law did not die normally (falling from a construction site), he was only 47 years old when he died, so all his affairs must be treated seriously. My father-in-law has no son, so I must do my best to handle it and cannot let relatives and friends speak. Therefore, there have been fewer updates in the past two days. Please forgive me. What is certain is that there will definitely be no family affairs affecting the update next month, so please rest assured.

...........

When the Qing army in the East Gate was stunned by the scene before them, the other three Qing army in the other three had no idea what had happened. The loud noise just now made many Qing army think that the thieves were siegeing the city, and they brought artillery like the old thieves last year.

"The thief has fired!"

"The thief is going to attack the city!"

A Qing army officer shouted in horror. The loud noise just now almost scared him to fall from the city wall. After calming his mind, he leaned out of the city, but the field of vision in front of him was silent, and there was no figure.

Where is the thief?

The Qing army on the city wall also had a blank look. They stared blankly at the outside of the city where there was nothing. No one knew what was going on. It was not until someone pointed at the east gate that they woke up as if they were dreaming and saw the black smoke that had already flowed into the air.

"The thieves attacked the East Gate, the East Gate!"

...........

After discovering that the loud noise came from the east gate, the Qing army, who had not yet known that the east gate wall was also bombed, immediately dispatched troops to reinforce the east gate. In their eyes, the Taiping Army with artillery was definitely not an ordinary bandit, but became a threat like the Li Dingguo army. Last year, the scene of the Li Dingguo army bombing the Xinhui city wall with dozens of artillery was still fresh in their memory. Now, there are still several walls that still look solid on the outside. But behind it, it is made in a hurry, not as strong as before.

According to convention, after shooting the cannon, the thief must have ant attack. At this time, the defenders must have sufficient troops and must not have a gap. Otherwise, the thief will definitely take the opportunity to climb up the city. Out of experience, the Qing generals from the other three gates all transferred certain people to the east gate.

Su Xianting did not go to sleep at night. After escaping from Guifeng Mountain, he faced a difficult problem. Why did General Wu Jinzhong die, but Su Xianting came back alive and buried his flag soldiers cleanly.

As the Baoyi slave of the Prince of Pingnan, Su Xianting knew more than anyone about the significance of these Han army's blue flag soldiers to the King of Pingnan. You must know that when the King of Pingnan and King of Dingnan Kong Youde and King of Jingnan Geng Zhongming went south together, the flag soldiers under the three kings were only more than 7,000, and the number of flag soldiers under each prince was only more than 2,000.

With this little flag soldiers, the three kings went south from Beijing and were unstoppable. They forced themselves to pacify several provinces for the Qing court. King Kong Youde of Dingnan led his troops to occupy Hunan, Guangxi, King Pingnan and King Jingnan of Jingnan also successively occupied Fujian and Guangdong. If the Daxi Army had not gone north from Yunnan and had powerful generals like Li Dingguo, I was afraid that King Kong Youde of Dingnan would have bound the pseudo emperor of Yongli to Beijing. The Qing Dynasty unified the world, and there would be no Southern Ming in the world!

Although King Dingnan died in Guilin, it was in Guangdong. The two princes Pingnan and Jingnan relied on their four or five thousand flag soldiers to withstand Li Dingguo's two attacks. Although they failed to completely occupy Guangdong, they also controlled most of the Guangdong Province, making the Nanming gang of sluts dare not look east to Guangzhou.

The Han army flag had more than ten battles in Guangdong, and there were two fierce battles between Zhaoqing and Xinhui. However, the two princes lost only more than a thousand flag soldiers, but now they have ruined more than two hundred at once. This made Su Xianting worry about whether his head could be saved while he was glad that he had returned from his life. That was more than two hundred flag soldiers. It was not more than two hundred battalions! In the eyes of the Prince Pingnan, even two thousand green camp soldiers were not as heavy as his two hundred flag soldiers!

It is not too late to make up for the dead sheep. Su Xianting thought about it repeatedly after escaping back that only by successfully defending Xinhui City could the Prince Pingnan's anger be relieved. Of course, there is another important point. He must say that the thieves who defeated him were as powerful as the old thief Li Dingguo. At least, he must not let the King of Pingnan know that the one who defeated him was actually a group of bandits who were united.

If he wanted to do this and save his life, the cooperation of Zheng Guodong, another guard of Xinhui City, was very important. The fleeing flag soldiers were all his subordinates. Su Xianting was not afraid that they would betray him. Therefore, he had tried his best to show kindness to Zheng Guodong. However, he was used to being a bannerman and being a majestic person. He always inadvertently looked down on Zheng Guodong, who was born in the green camp, so the effect of winning over Zheng Guodong was not great, and the other party did not give any guarantee. Therefore, Su Xianting could only place his hope on the success of defending the city. As long as he successfully defended Xinhui, the prince would be dissatisfied with some anger. In this way, although this assistant leader could not be saved, his life would not be considered a slave.

Prince Pingnan was still very nostalgic. As a loyal servant who had followed him for almost ten years, Su Xianting thought that he was still familiar with the old prince's temper.

Su Xianting naturally did not dare to take it lightly, Zheng Guodong went to bed in the middle of the night, but he did not go to bed. Although he was sleeping severely, he still stayed in the city. It was also an old man who had been in the army for ten years. He knew that this period before dawn was the time when thieves liked to attack the city. Last year, Li Ding's troops attacked twice during this period, so he was worried and had to guard the city himself until the reinforcements arrived in Guangzhou.

Many large water tanks were buried under the city. Su Xianting sent his personal soldiers from time to time to ask the Green Camp soldiers who were responsible for monitoring the movements underground. When he learned that the thieves had no sign of digging tunnels, he couldn't help but feel a lot. But at the critical moment of dawn, a loud noise suddenly came from under the city wall. The violent shaking made Su Xianting's sleepiness disappear in an instant, which surprised him: the thieves had artillery!

"Beware of shells!"

Su Xianting subconsciously called to the few personal soldiers behind him, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the two personal soldiers pointing at the left with no face and shouting with fear: "No, the city wall has collapsed, run away!"

Accompanied by the screams of these two personal soldiers, countless splashes of stones and soil, a stream of black smoke rising from the sky, and a shocking collapsed city wall!

Screams and screams came one after another.

Su Xianting couldn't believe it. His upper and lower teeth trembled involuntarily. He could not imagine what weapon could make the city wall that could collapse, which could not be able to do with tens of thousands of troops of old thieves.

How is it possible, how is it possible? How is it possible!
