Something seemed not right. Liu Guangbi didn't understand. How long had it been? Could it be possible for these mud-legged people to understand the secrets of fighting after just farming for a while?

It was estimated that he had gained some experience after losing too much and was just a little clever. Liu Guangbi didn't pay too much attention to it. The casualties of the Qing army came more and faster than expected, but with the order to continue the attack, these experiences

The rich Qing army also quickly resumed its offensive momentum.

The offensive continued. The Qing army was overwhelming, but the Ming army could not muster a few artillery pieces. The two sides were engaged in a pure offensive and defensive battle in the cold weapon era. Arrows continued to fall, and they were caught off guard. The Qing army held shields.

Maintaining tactical actions, the diffuse damage was immediately reduced drastically like a dive. The distance to the pass was getting closer and closer, and the arrows became more dense and precise. The Qing army accelerated their advance. When they reached the pass, the next step was

The ladder can be erected to attack the city, but it turns out that the angle and length of the ladder seem to be insufficient if the shallow ditch that was noticed earlier does not seem to go down.

Shooting continued on the city, and at this distance, some powerful Ming troops also began to throw more powerful stones and other objects at them.

Jumping down doesn't seem like a good idea, but it's better than being a target under the city. A large number of Qing troops rushed to the front and jumped down, followed by the Qing troops who followed, and then the ladders could be erected.

Unexpectedly, just after he jumped, another burst of screams came. The Qing soldiers who jumped down all looked at the bamboo thorns stained with flesh and blood protruding from their feet. The shallow ditch was like a

A huge trap filled with bamboo sticks.

This time, there was no way to set up a ladder without getting down into the shallow ditch, and the feet would suffer if they got down into the shallow ditch. Most of the people who got into the shallow ditch first had their feet pierced by bamboo sticks, and their movement speed was severely limited. The Qing army that followed was at a loss of ground to advance or retreat.

He immediately became a living target of the Ming army...

The arrogance of the Qing army cost them blood in the face of these little tricks. They fought for an entire afternoon, attacked three times, and finally even the bidding battalion came on stage. The wall was once climbed by the Qing army, but

In the end, despite the vigorous fighting of the Ming army, they were defeated.

The retreating figures of the Qing army were driven away by the cheers of the Ming army. At this moment, Jie Chongxi and Cao Dahao were also among the cheering crowd. Not only were they infected, but more importantly, they came from their own hearts.

Inner joy.

The Ming army in Jiangxi suffered repeated defeats. They had set up countless camps over the years, but very few were able to temporarily stop the Qing army's offensive momentum. And even if they were able to hold on temporarily, they would suffer a lot of casualties. When the Qing army came down,

During an attack, they had to retreat to avoid causing greater losses.

Because of this, being able to repel the Qing army with relatively small casualties like this today is something that the Ming army, who were born as rebels, has almost never done before. Although the Qing army still lost more to their underestimated enemies.

Above, it is not that there are no better ways to achieve the goal, but this time it is a rare experience. With this victory of the Jiangxi Ming Army, the confidence in holding the fort will be greatly increased, and the morale of the people can also be effectively improved.

"Chen Kai is indeed Zhu Chenggong's number one confidant. He can defraud Chaozhou City by himself, can play with Du Yonghe, and can pull teeth from Shang Kexi's tiger's mouth. This talent is truly extraordinary that ordinary people can't match.

Zhaojing, to tell you the truth, I regret letting him go like this."

Speaking of which, Jie Chongxi accepted Chen Kai's suggestion. Based on some of the methods mentioned by Chen Kai when defending the city and the experience of Cao Dahao, Hong Guoyu, Zhang Zisheng and others, the defensive fortifications designed were quite effective.

Effect. At least, it has a better chance of winning than letting the Jiangxi Ming army directly engage the Qing army.

There is no need to guess. The Qing army will never give up the offensive and let them stay here for a long time. The new round of offensive may not take long, and it is bound to be more ferocious. But as the confidence increases, the mood will increase.

There is a difference, what Jie Zhongxi said at this moment, he couldn't help but feel regretful that the biggest contributor to this war could not be used by him, but regrets were regrets, and he also knew very well what he could do if he forced Chen Kai to stay. On the contrary, it would be better to marry him

A good relationship will make it easier to meet each other in the future.

There is still a lot of work to be done in the follow-up. Chen Kai's suggestions are not only applicable this time, but there are many that they cannot implement for the time being. Hearing this, Cao Dahao also expressed his agreement with Jie Chongxi's regret -

Speaking of which, the Ming army in Jiangxi suffered repeated defeats. They were really eager for a victory, and they were even more eager to continue winning like this until they regained the entire Jiangxi, and led these Jiangyou disciples to do more for the cause of regaining the Han Dynasty.

things.

"Zhijun, I heard from the guide that Chen Kai started writing that letter after he witnessed a massacre in a small village on the road."

"Yes, Zhaojing, I have also heard about this. Speaking of which, he must have seen such scenes many times, but he was still able to be touched, regardless of the opinions of the factions and the fact that we just rejected him.

He wrote that letter out of dissatisfaction, which shows that he has feelings of concern for the country and the people. Such a person can really be called a national scholar."

Jie Chongxi applauded, but Chen Kai had left early, and there was no possibility of cooperation between the two sides. After a brief celebration of the victory, the Jiangxi Ming Army had to seize all the time to prepare for the victory.

Prepare for the next battle. Chen Kai, on the other hand, has already rowed on Poyang Lake. The mouth of Jiujiang is already in front of him. After passing here, he can go down the Yangtze River and travel "A Thousand Miles to Jiangling".

The speed of "paying back day by day".

Compared with the joy of the Ming army in Jiangxi at the moment, Kuang Lu's mood was a bit low. He had been to Jiangxi when he was living in a foreign country. At that time, Jiangxi was a land of plenty, with developed fisheries, agriculture, and handicrafts, a prosperous people, and a prosperous literary style. But what?

Along the way, I saw dilapidated and ragged people, and most of the gentry and Confucian students were hiding in the mountains and forests. It was no longer what it used to be. Especially near Nanchang, there were sparsely populated areas and abandoned villages everywhere. How could it look like a city that once had an underpopulated city?

What’s the weather like around Jiangnan Xiongcheng worth 200,000 yuan?

Gradually, Kuang Lu also began to lean towards Cai Qiao's suggestion of returning to Fujian immediately - with Chen Kai's ability, he would be able to play a greater role than "doing nothing" here.

It's a pity that Chen Kai is determined and cannot be easily persuaded. At this moment, he is sitting on the big boat that he transferred to when entering Poyang Lake. Under the oil lamp in the cabin, he is silently writing in a booklet with the words "Inspection of the Anti-Qing Movement in Jiangxi" written in Chinese pinyin.

, just like the title, what I have seen and heard during this trip is written in words that others cannot understand.

"In the land of Jiangxi, the government exploited excessively, the green camp looted and massacred, Confucianism prevailed, and the gentry and the common people were highly resistant to the Qing court..."

"In this province, the Qing army used Nanchang, Jiujiang and Ganzhou as defense nodes and gathered heavy troops. The troops in other prefectures and counties were smaller, no, very few, very few..."

"Although the Ming army and the rebel army are numerous, their combat effectiveness is weak and they are almost the same as civilians. Moreover, the Qing army is conducting targeted encirclement and suppression against the fourth battalion head of General Yan Luo and the four major bandits in Jiangxi. The prospects are not good..."

"The place is dilapidated, and the policies of the Qing court will aggravate this phenomenon. However, if you want to restore it, reducing corvees and reducing taxes, or even just dividing the land for farming, can still gather a lot of people's hearts. The Qing court is now powerful, and there is no shortage of talented people within it.

, maybe someone has already seen this..." "Dividing the fields can restore production and appease the people. More importantly, it can start a new round of mowing..."
