Chapter 216

What surprised Wu Sangui and Zuo Menggeng not only did Ye Yun not intercept the artillery, but also asked the infantry regiment near the river to retreat south.

What does this mean?

It is clearly telling Zuo Menggeng and the others that if you are willing to go down the river, just hold on, and I will never do anything to stop me.

What's more, Ye Yun has already sent the news, and the downstream turrets and defenders are ready to fight. He thought he would be defending the turrets here for the rest of his life. Who knew that Zuo Menggeng had given them credit, how could he be unhappy?

You can make contributions hundreds of miles away from the battlefield, so there are not too many such things!

"What should I do? You say something, look at the cracks in the city wall, and it can be stuffed into a head. If this continues, the city wall will collapse soon, and Jiujiang City will not be able to be protected."

Zuo Menggeng said anxiously, this guy is just a young master who eats, drinks and has fun. He can follow others to make a fortune in the battlefield. If she is asked to do it herself, then let him go!

Wu Sangui was also depressed by the side. After all, he was a powerful player. He worked with such a person, and in name, he was also the head coach. He really couldn't afford to lose this person!

How could this kid lead him? When he was fighting, he was still sipping in his mother's arms!

"For the sake of the current plan, there is no other way. While the city wall can help us block for a while, we will capture all the warriors in the city and let them guard the city for us. We will have to wait as long as we can withstand it. We have to retreat quickly."

The obvious thing is that Wu Sangui can't think of any other way besides this method.

Jiujiang City is important, but no matter how important it is, it is not as important as our heads. With green mountains flowing, you are not afraid of burning firewood and not even a single city wall, what should you use to guard Jiujiang City?

"You really hurt me. If I had known this was the case, I might as well go to Nanjing!"

Zuo Menggeng almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. If he had known this was the case, why would he rebel with Wu Sangui!

According to my father's idea, the father and the two went to Nanjing honestly. Even if they did something too much before, they could even enjoy their old age by handing over the territory and the army!

Now it’s better. After Jiujiang City is lost, there will be no defensive barriers in Huguang area.

"It's over here, it's useless to say more. Listen to the sound of the cannons. At most, the city wall will not be able to hold on. Will it be possible to retreat? You can make an idea for yourself. Anyway, my Guanning Iron Cavalry is all cavalry, and you have a lot of infantry under you."

No matter how you say it, Wu Sangui is too lazy to care about this guy. After saying that, he goes back and orders his subordinates to prepare to retreat. If he continues to waste here, all these people will have to die here.

Dog day...

Zuo Menggeng wished he could cut Wu Sangui with one knife. He didn't care about this guy's own situation. Anyway, if something happened, he would blame others for everything.

This is also the old habit of these young men.

"Come on, take all the soldiers and soldiers in Jiujiang City to me, and then send them to the city wall, let them fight to death, and then ignite Xia Chengqiang's shovel, and don't allow them to come down."

Zuo Menggeng said viciously, even if he wanted to retreat in the end, this guy would have to force these people to resist and send you to the city wall. You would be able to attract artillery outside and fires were lit down there. Even if you wanted to come down, it would be impossible.

Use the lives of you to buy us some retreat time!

Although this guy scolded Wu Sangui, after thinking about it, what Wu Sangui said was correct. It was already dark now.

If you don't retreat, you won't know how many deserters will be there in the whole night after the city wall collapses.

They saw the daytime battle and knew the gap between them and the Ming army. If they continued to resist, their heads would not be as hard as other people's bullets.

So we must take our army to retreat before dark, so that we can still bring some of the army back...

Under Jiujiang City.

Teams of local temporary recruitment were suppressed here.

"Why do you retreat and keep us here? And you can't hold on to this wall."

Thousands of temporary soldiers recruited in Jiujiang City were unwilling to go up to the city wall. They were not fools, and they were blown up to pieces. Who knew when they would collapse? If they collapsed, they would definitely be buried inside.

"Why? I will let you know why today!"

After this guy finished speaking, he stabbed him with one knife.

Most of the soldiers recruited temporarily were ordinary people, and they had not received much training at all, and naturally they had never fought on the battlefield.

Compared with the veterans under Zuo Menggeng, there is naturally a big gap. Although they were stubborn just now, they all retreated after seeing the blood.

"Is anyone asking why? Now I'll get up honestly, at least I have a little way out, but if I don't leave, don't blame my brother for being careless. Today, this knife will have to drink blood."

Zuo Menggeng's supervisor team said viciously, and the rest of them took out their swords. Their expressions were fierce and scared the soldiers in Jiujiang City.

"Mom, I have to kill a few people every time. If you don't kill people, you guys won't know how powerful we are."

Seeing that these people had begun to move towards the city wall, the people in the supervision team spitted.

These people are already numb.

If these people are not sent up, who will delay time? If no one delays time, the imperial army will continue to follow them after taking down Jiujiang City.

The cavalry could still escape back to Wuchang, but it was unlikely that infantry with two legs would be trapped on the way, and this was a serious crime of treason.

Zuo Menggeng was also watching all this coldly from a distance. He lost his first battle, which was something Zuo Menggeng had never thought of. Before coming to Jiujiang, he dreamed of defeating the imperial army here and being commended by the Qing court.

At that time, we could ask the Qing court for more gold and silver, and then expand our army. At that time, the two courts would not listen, and maybe they could form a court. Now, it would be better that they would lose the important town of Jiujiang in two days...
