Chapter 79 Start Siege!

Chapter 79 Begin the siege!

"My dear friends, do you know how much money Lin Fan found from Nanjing City?"

Emperor Chongzhen asked coldly.

kindness!

The officials who were still kneeling on the ground crying were all stunned. They only knew that Lin Fan killed officials in Nanjing City, but they didn't know that Lin Fan also ransacked their homes there!

The city of Xi'an was besieged by Li Zicheng's army. Isn't this Lin Fan anxious at all?

You actually have the heart to search for money, can you take it with you?

"Your Majesty, how much money did Lin Fan find?"

"Your Majesty, if it is only a few million taels, this is normal. After all, Nanjing City is the second capital of the Ming Dynasty. It is normal for officials to keep this money for the court!"

The officials said one after another.

Emperor Chongzhen sneered in his heart, why is the silver kept for the imperial court? I am so poor in the capital, and I haven't seen Nanjing give me a tael of silver!

Moreover, this is not a few million taels, but more than 30 million taels!

"My dear friends, this is more than 30 million taels of silver! With these silvers, our Ming Dynasty will have the confidence to turn defeat into victory!"

"The intruder has been living in Sichuan for a long time. Now he dares to attack Xi'an City. Next, he will be defeated by Lin Fan. After that, the intruder will die!"

Chongzhen said in a deep voice.

hiss!

More than thirty million taels of silver!

Among the officials here, there are many people from the Donglin Party, and they all stared wide-eyed!

In the past, those Donglin Party members who were officials in Nanjing were all envious of the fact that they could watch in the capital because there was so much money and money!

Unexpectedly, the money and water on their side was no less than that on this side. The officials gritted their teeth one by one. At this moment, they felt that those people deserved to die!

"This! Your Majesty, Mr. Lin has seized 30 million taels of silver for the imperial court. This is a great achievement!"

Li Jiantai said hurriedly.

Ni Yuanlu also said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, after Mr. Lin went to Henan and Shandong, I have already made statistics on the land there. If the rain is normal, these two places alone can harvest 500,000 shi of grain!"

"Your Majesty, this number is very impressive, and all of this is thanks to Mr. Lin. I will also go to count the land in Nanjing next. I believe it won't be too different."

After Ni Yuanlu said this, the ministers present were completely convinced. With so much money and so much land, Lin Fan not only had no fault, but actually made great achievements!

"Well! Ni Aiqing, you did a very good job, I'm very pleased!"

Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile.

Ni Yuanlu was naturally happy to be praised by Chongzhen. She flattered Chongzhen some more and then retreated to her seat.

This time in the morning court, Chongzhen was extremely happy. Next, it depends on whether Lin Fan can defeat Li Zicheng and regain the lost territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Outside the city of Xi'an, the Dashun army commanded by Li Zicheng had been gathering here for three days. Li Zicheng did not dare to start the attack because he had not found an opportunity to attack the city.

After all, once the city is attacked, it is difficult to stop it. However, Xi'an City is guarded by tiger and leopard cavalry, and he can't find any loopholes at all!

"Your Majesty, if we want to attack the city, we must hurry up. Lin Fan may come back at any time!"

Niu Jinxing said in a deep voice.

"This siege was decided too hastily, and most of our siege equipment are old. I'm worried that once we start the siege, we will pay a huge price and still not be able to capture the city of Xi'an!

"

Li Zicheng said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty! General Liu can't wait anymore. He said that if Your Majesty doesn't attack the city, he will withdraw with his people. Please make your decision early on this matter!"

Niu Jinxing said in a deep voice.

In his opinion, it is better not to fight the city of Xi'an. If they fail, the momentum of their Dashun Army will inevitably be severely damaged. Once the morale of the army is lost, they will have no chance at all.

"Siege the city!"

Li Zicheng was silent for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said.

At this time, it was impossible not to fight. Then, Niu Jinxing went to convey the order, and the Dashun army began to attack the city. For a while, the shouts of killing were loud.

Zhang Liang stood on the city gate and looked at the approaching Dashun army indifferently. She calmly commanded the tiger and leopard cavalry to fight against the Dashun army.

An hour passed, and the power of the Dashun Army continued. However, the Dashun Army did not get any benefits from Zhang Liang. Instead, they did not attack the city wall.

"General Zhang! Although the combat power of these Dashun troops is not strong, there are too many of them. We have used up all the rolling stones. If we continue to fight, we can only fight in close combat!"

One person came to report.

Zhang Liang frowned. There was a lot of food gathered in Xi'an City, and a large amount of money was also here. She had to find a way to keep it.

"In that case, let's lure these Dashun troops to the city wall and kill them!"

Zhang Liang said in a deep voice.

"Yes! General!"

The soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry received the order and quickly followed Zhang Liang's deployment.

The trapped camp stood behind the city gate, ready to attack. Once the city gate was broken open, these soldiers would rush forward and fight the Dashun army.

"Well! There seems to be a gap over there!"

At this moment, Zhang Liang discovered that there was a gap on the left side of Li Zicheng's army.

And the reason why that gap appeared was precisely because that army belonged to Liu Zongmin, and Liu Zongmin saw that the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and was afraid that his elite would be exhausted, so he did not dare to charge so fiercely!

However, this is an opportunity for Zhang Liang!

"There is a breakthrough! You quickly drop 10,000 tiger and leopard cavalry and kill me out!"

Zhang Liang said coldly.

"Yes! General!"

All the soldiers said one after another.

Although Zhang Liang is a woman, he is Lin Fan's personal commander. Therefore, every decision he makes will be made by the people of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

"Kill! If we enter Xi'an City, I will skin Lin Fan alive!"

"Haha! The guards in Xi'an City are really weak. In my opinion, I can get in by myself!"

"Brothers! Kill! Don't embarrass our Majesty! Our Majesty is an unprecedented genius and is here to save us!"



The soldiers of the Dashun Army kept shouting, but just as they were shouting, Zhang Liang came out with 10,000 tiger and leopard cavalry and 30,000 trapped troops.

Although most of the soldiers trapped in the camp were young, they were not easy for ordinary people to deal with. Therefore, after the battle between the Dashun army, the soldiers trapped in the camp were extremely brave and killed the Dashun army in retreat.

At this time, Liu Zongmin wanted to scold her!

"Damn it! Why are you attacking me! The real masters who want to attack the city are Li Zicheng's army!"

Liu Zongmin looked at his soldiers being killed and retreating, and said anxiously.
