After Jinzhou City, after Jin Shenghuan and Tang Tong replaced Li Laiheng, Gan Chao's army held on for another eight days, and three-quarters of the city fell into the hands of the Qing army.

At this time, the Gan Army only occupied the South Gate and a small area nearby.

Early in the morning, the position was extremely quiet. When the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, a crowd appeared outside the Ganjun position.

"Boom boom boom boom!" The Qing army's mortar cannon began to roar, and the shells fell on the Gan Army's position, and a violent explosion occurred, producing thick smoke.

The Haoge light cavalry advanced and the army advanced rapidly. After arriving at the Jinzhou Guard, they immediately launched an attack on the Gan Army. However, because there were no heavy artillery and mortar artillery, the Qing army had a very difficult attack and it was still difficult to take down the Jinzhou Guard.

Three days ago, the mortars transported by the Qing army from Jinzhou finally arrived at the Jinzhou Guard and immediately entered the battle.

Under the fierce bombardment of mortar cannons and flowering bullets, the Qing army finally opened up the situation in the Jinzhou Guard and captured most of the Jinzhou Guard.

At this time, in a ruined wall, Haoge held a monolithic mirror and observed the Ganjun position, and said in a deep voice: "We must take down Jinzhou today."

As time goes by, Hong Chengchou's face no longer had the same calmness as before. He said with some concern: "If we don't take down Jinzhou and open up the connection with Lushun, the situation of the war will be dangerous."

"Don't worry, with the help of the mortar, I will definitely take down Jinzhou today." Oboi gritted his teeth and said on the side.

After the reinforcements from Ganchao arrived, Kong Youde felt the crisis and was worried that he would be trapped and died in Lushun, so he proposed a breakthrough.

However, if Lushun was abandoned, the Qing court would be in a passive strategic position. After Haoge and Hong Chengchou discussed, they rejected Kong Youde's suggestions.

If Lushun is in hand, the Qing army only needs to defend the Jinzhou front line, and the Qing court can calmly deal with the attack of the Gan army.

If Lushun falls, the Qing army not only needs to defend Jinzhou, but also needs to defend Liaodong. Not only will the troops be dispersed, the pressure will also increase exponentially. The Qing court will inevitably be dragged down by the Gan army under the harassment of the Gan army.

Now there are only 20,000 soldiers and horses landing in Liaodong in Ganchao, and Kong Youde and Haoge have a total of 130,000 troops. How could he easily give up Lushun?

Therefore, Haoge issued a death order to Kong Youde, asking him to continue attacking north, pull out Ganchao's strongholds one by one, and open up contact with the main force.

However, as time went by, Hong Chengchou began to feel a little worried.

At this time, he looked at the Ganjun position and said in a deep voice: "I hope to open the passage with Lushun as soon as possible, otherwise Kong Youde will have no ammunition and food."

While speaking, the Qing army infantry, under the cover of the mortar cannon, had already launched a fierce attack on the Gan Army's positions.

Nearly Wan Qingjun stood up with bayonets and spears, and held shields, and arranged in neat formations, pushing forward amid the "rumbling" explosion.

During the battle with the Gan Army, the Qing army gradually learned the tactics of infantry and artillery coordination. When the Qing army with muskets was about to approach the trenches, the opposite Gan Army position still did not respond.

In the broken walls, Haoge, Hong Chengchou and others quickly discovered the problem and frowned. Oboi also wondered: "Why didn't the barbarian fight back?"

At this time, the Qing army, which was close to the trench, launched a charge. The soldiers shouted and rushed into the position that was blown up by the cannon, but found that the figure of the Ganjun had long disappeared.

The Qing army stood on the trenches and the sandbags, looking at the captured positions, and immediately cheered.

Haoge and Hong Chengchou looked at each other, and Haoge said happily: "The barbarians are not able to bear the shelling and retreat!"

Hong Chengchou urgently reminded, "Prince, it's not time to go. The army should take advantage of the victory to pursue, open up the Nanguan, and lock in the victory."

Haoge nodded slightly, fisted and ordered, "Obai, you will lead your troops to pursue you immediately."

When Oboi heard the words, he immediately saluted, "Zhe, the slave takes the order."

After the reinforcements arrived, the Gan Army's troops began to become more powerful. Huang Degong asked the new Li Chengdong, Jin Shenghuan and Tang Tong to replace the original defenders, replaced the troops that had been under the control for many days, and took a rest, and began to build a defense line.

After Huang Degong landed in Nanguan, he had only time to build simple fortifications. Kong Youde and Haoge arrived one after another. The Gan army had to resist the attacks of the Qing army on both sides, and had no time and manpower to build a line of defense. They could only rely on the mountain to carry out simple transformation.

After the reinforcements arrived, Huang Degong had the extra troops and rebuilt the position.

Under the attack of the Qing army, many positions of the Gan army were gradually lost, leaving only Yantong Mountain, Nanpo Mountain, Jinzhouwei, and a temporary dock near the coast.

Among them, Yantong Mountain is in the south, Jinzhou Wei is in the north, and Nanpo Mountain and temporary wharf are in the middle.

Huang Degong ordered Li Chengdong to resist Kong Youde in Yantong Mountain, and Jin Shenghuan and Tang Tong resist Haoge in Jinzhou Guards. He asked Li Laiheng and Wang Guangtai, who had been resting, to build fortifications on Nanpo Mountain and the temporary wharf as the last stronghold.

As time went by, it was already the time agreed with Gao Huan. Huang Degong estimated that Gao Huan would arrive in Lushun, and the positions of Nanposhan and temporary wharf had been strengthened, so he ordered the Gan army, which was struggling to support Yantong Mountain and Jinzhou Guards, to withdraw to the Nanposhan position and temporary wharf.

Nanposhan is located west and close to the Bohai Sea. The artillery on the mountain and the naval guns on the sea can block the west side of the south slope, making it impossible for the Qing army to pass through from the west. The Nanposhan position cooperates with the temporary dock position on the east side and blocks the middle, thus completing the blockade of Nanguan.

There is only a gap of three or four miles between the two positions. If the Qing army passes through the middle, it will be attacked by the dry army of the two positions, and the passage will be a road to death.

In the command post of the front army, Huang Degong glanced at the position and nodded with satisfaction, "Now we are just waiting for the arrival of His Majesty's army."

"Governor, here we are coming to the south." Li Yuanyin pointed to the south of the position.

Huang Degong looked up and saw that it was true that he saw the south of the position. After Kong Youde's troops took down Yantong Mountain, they continued to recommend north. The army stopped four miles away from the Ganjun position.

"It's also coming to the north." In the command post, the generals of the Gan Army shouted.

Huang Degong turned his head and saw the Qing cavalry roaring and the scene of thousands of horses galloping was very shocking.

At this time, Haogele stopped at the horse reins and stopped five miles from Nanpo Mountain. The first thing he paid attention to was not the position of the Gan Army, but the Kong Youde troops in the south.

It's a sunny day, the sky is blue, and the battlefield has a good view.

Hauge stood on a mountain and could see Kong Youde's troops more than ten miles away.

The two armies could already see each other, but they were blocked by the positions of the Gan Army.

Haoge was quite excited inside, feeling that the two armies had a successful meeting of more than ten miles away.

At this time, Hong Chengchou suddenly pointed to Gan Jun's position and said in a deep voice, "Prince, look, what is that?"

When Haoge heard the words, he turned his attention to the Ganjun position. He saw wooden stakes nailed in front of the Ganjun position. There seemed to be something connected between the wooden stakes, but he couldn't see it clearly enough and didn't know what it was.
