Zu Kuan was also anxious at this moment. He was fighting hard at the top of the city, and chaos broke out in the city. But his troops were only a small amount of in his hands and he had no way to deal with it.

At this time, he couldn't take care of so much. He had no time to deal with the battlefield command and let them play their own way. He brought more than 20 personal soldiers with him to the field.

For him, repelling the enemy in front of him, stabilizing the situation, and then dealing with the chaos in the city is his only way out.

However, the soldiers and young and strong men recruited by the garrison have now scattered like birds and beasts. The former is not strong in itself and has weaker ability to resist strikes. The latter is just working with money, and now his life is almost gone. What's the use of getting money?

However, Zu Kuan and his personal soldiers are not a big deal. Zu Kuan is a personal soldier of Zu Dashou. How could he rely on his military achievements to climb to the general? His personal soldiers are also ready to die for the general at any time.

As soon as they were in the game, the situation changed suddenly. The Tiance Army attacked the city and did not expect this situation. He was caught off guard and killed or injured more than a dozen people in one go. They who had already gradually gained the advantage were beaten back. The double-rebels continued to fight bloody battles on the city, and everyone was red-eyed.

Although with their joining, the situation on the city gradually became even more stable, and the Tiance army outside the city was not easy to kill. The troops from both sides were entangled together, and it would be bad if they were injured by accident. However, in other places, the situation of Guanning Army was not so good.

With He Jin and others attracting the defenders from the east and west gates, the Guanning Army had to divide the troops to deal with it. Although He Jin and the others could not eliminate the Guanning Army, they could still hold them back.

The defense power at the city was mainly Guanning Army, and the others were all for so-called "Soul". Now that the troops have been reduced so much, the pressure of the Tiance Army has dropped suddenly and it soon came to the city.

Like the South Gate, when he saw the Tiance army jumping onto the city, the guards and young men who assisted in the defense dispersed. The remaining No. 30 and 40 Guanning Army had no advantage of being condescending, and were soon defeated by more and more Tiance army.

After standing firmly in the situation, the follow-up troops continued to follow up and completely eliminated the remaining defenders on both sides of the city tower.

Immediately, the gates on both sides were opened one after another, and the cavalry who were already ready rushed into the city smoothly and headed towards the south and north gates. The Tiance army on the top of the city also followed the city wall and attacked the north and south sides.

When these cavalry arrived at the South Gate, the Guanning Army, which was originally resisting on the top of the city, no longer had the courage to resist. After fighting continuously, they had lost nearly half of the losses, but the enemy had not yet stopped and attacked continuously.

If this is the case, they can barely hold on for a while, but now other city gates have failed again, and the enemy's troops are several times higher than them. If you continue to fight, you are looking for death. It is better to take this opportunity to escape, and there is still a glimmer of hope.

In a moment, the Guanning Army at the top of the city scattered like birds and beasts, throwing away the weapons in their hands and finding their own war horses to escape.

Even the main general Zu Kuan could no longer order them now. Some of the soldiers of the Guanning Army even took his attention at this moment, thinking that they could save their lives with his head.

Seeing a soldier approaching with malicious intentions, Zu Kuan saw his thoughts at a glance, and swung his sword and slashed it diagonally. The man was immediately chopped in half, and the other soldiers were shocked by him. And seeing that his personal soldiers were of good quality, he gave up this idea.

Although there was no threat from behind, Zu Kuan's current situation was equally bad. At this moment, the city was full of wars from the Tiance Army. After a fight, there were only ten personal soldiers standing by Zu Kuan.

Now they were surrounded by Zu Kuan, staring at the Tiance Army in a circle, their eyes full of blood and their faces were as ferocious as wild beasts.

"Bang bang bang..."

Suddenly, a dense and short gunfire sounded, and the ten personal soldiers fell down almost at the same time, their eyes full of doubts, but they were left with no idea what was going on, Zu Kuan, who looked confused.

"Hahaha, this short gun is really useful. No wonder Teacher Mao always likes to use this thing to defeat the enemy!" A cheerful voice sounded.

Zu Kuan saw a general of the Tiance Army holding a short gun similar to a bird gun in his hand, and was still smoking at this moment.

There were more than a dozen other people holding short guns around him. There was no doubt that his personal soldiers died under these short guns.

"Zu Kuan is right? Put down your weapons and surrender, and you can give you a way out!" Deng Deming, holding a short-barrel flintlock rifle, said indifferently.

"Just because of you thieves, you want me to surrender? Do..."

"Bang!"

Zu Kuan's angrily scolding was interrupted by a gunshot. He felt a piercing pain coming from his right thigh. Even he bought a way to endure such pain and had to hold back his own.

The soldiers of the Tiance army next to him took the opportunity to rush forward, pressed him firmly to the ground, and then tied him up.

Deng Deming came to him and laughed and said, "Zu Kuan, why are you doing this? You are still stubborn when you die. Bet on your shoulders and take good care of it, don't let him die!"

After solving Zu Kuan, the rest of the matter was simple. There were only 150 Guanning Army in the North Gate, and they were also captured at this time. The four gates and the city wall were under the control of the Tiance Army, and the rest had no chance to run away.

The rest is to capture prisoners throughout the journey, and of course there is another thing - extinguishing the fire.

In order to create chaos, He Jin and his friends kept igniting fires everywhere. Now that they have control, it is not worth extinguishing the entire city without extinguishing the fire. Except for a small number of people in the Tiance Army, they cooperated with the White Lotus Sect to start extinguishing the fire.

After almost an hour, the fire was basically controlled, leaving only some smoke and ashes that had not been burned.

The defenders in the city, whether they were Guanning or Guards, had no one escaped, most of them were killed or arrested, and only a very small number were hiding in hidden places. This was another beautiful battle of encirclement and annihilation.

At the end of the afternoon, Boxing County Yamen, Deng Deming, Li Xianneng, Wang Lin and others were gathering together to study the newly sent information.

According to information, the main force of the Ming army has arrived in Yangxin and is expected to arrive in Boxing as late as the afternoon of the day after tomorrow.

"Two generals, the enemy is coming fiercely, and the 120,000 troops are advancing together. This is going to capture us all in one go! We should be in the face of the great enemy, and we should still work together. Copper and copper retreat. In your opinion, how should we prepare?"

Wang Lin spoke first, and his tone seemed a little lacking in confidence. The main reason was that his subordinates were too embarrassing when siege the city. He originally believed in the organization's strong attack, but he thought he could win it smoothly and showed a good show of the limelight, but he was beaten to the top.

If Deng Deming hadn't made a quick decision and decisive effort to recruit troops and reinforcements, his troops would have been defeated like this. It would be a big deal to decide whether Boxing City can be captured today.

Li Xianneng looked at the map, then looked at the information, thinking, "According to my opinion, as the original plan, we will first defeat Lijin, Putai, Binzhou and Qingcheng!"

"But even if we can fight, we may not be able to defend it! The Guanguan Ning Army is so powerful that it can only withstand it unless each one is built like Le'an, with dozens of cannons, but we don't have that many!" Wang Lin said anxiously.

Deng Deming glanced at him with some displeasure, "Who said he wanted to defend it? It's not to take these places to defend it. We can retreat safely by sweeping all the wealth, food, and so on!

When the main force of the Ming army arrived, there was no way to replenish supplies on the spot. They could only rely on the supply of food and grass in the rear, and the pressure would definitely increase a lot. In addition, although there were not many defenders in these places, they had been fighting with the Youth Clan for so long and had a deep understanding. I believe that it would be much more difficult for the Ming army to obtain intelligence!"

After hearing what he said, Wang Lin said embarrassedly, "I am thinking about it. General Deng said that if we can recover these places, it will definitely be beneficial to us! But the problem is, we only have two days to get it off?"

"Don't worry, now they don't know the news that Wu Sangui and Zu Kuan are wiped out. We can divide the troops and open the city gate with the banner of Guanning Army!

Even if it is not successful, the main defenders in these places are Guanning Army, which generally does not exceed 100 people. There may be some re-contracted garrison soldiers and yamen runners, but at most only 300 people, and a strong attack can be taken!"

"Then we will send troops tomorrow morning?"

"I'll send troops tonight!"

"tonight?"

Deng Deming said firmly, "Yes, it's just that tonight, soldiers are the most important. Otherwise, if the news spreads, they will definitely be prepared! Let's do this, Wang Guardian, you will be able to ride horses, go with us and seize half of us. What do you think?"

"Okay, since both generals have said that, I agree with this method!"

Just after the ugly moment, Deng Deming and Li Xianneng each led three brigades, together with the 1,300 people supported by Wang Lin, to Gaoyuan, Qidong, Qingcheng, Putai, Lijin and Binzhou, preparing to take down these six cities before the main force of the Ming army arrived.

The other two brigades were still staying in Boxing and began their main work - scraping the ground.

Of course, it is not the one who slaughtered ordinary people, but the gentry and powerful. Nowadays, more than 80% of the wealth in a county has gathered and controlled them in the hands of these gentry and powerful people. The way to get money quickly is to search for them.

At the same time, it can also win the hearts of the people. When the White Lotus Sect was in rebellion, these people hid in Jinan Prefecture or Northern Zhili for safety. As the Guanning Army headed south, they also came back, cooperating with the Guanning Army to loot a large amount of money and food from ordinary people.

Now the people hate these gentry to the core, and there is no resistance to plunder them, and the people also provide clues.

According to reports from the people in the north of the city and the Bailian Cult who knew the information, if they colluded with the Guanning Army and persecuted the people, their homes would be searched, and everyone in the family was taken back to Laizhou for hard labor.

The agreement with Wang Lin was that all the finances seized from the Guanning Army belonged to them, and they were all snatched back from the gentry and powerful people. Not included in the capture, and Wang Lin did not have the confidence to fight, so they all belonged to the Tiance Army.

Speaking of which, I really found a lot of money, including cash and silver, antiques and jade, treasures, calligraphy and paintings, which are almost 200,000 taels. Although they are far from the harvest of a trip to Jiangnan, it is better than not.

In addition, the war horses in the city were basically intact, and none of the Guanning Army could run out. The siege did not harm the war horses. In addition, some of the Guanning Army were one man and two horses, with a total of more than 1,300 horses. The Tiance Army took away 700, and the rest returned to Wang Lin.

After the inventory was completed, Li Niu led the soldiers of two squadrons to escort back to Weixian.

He Jin, who was traveling with him, also had to pass many checkpoints of the Bailian Sect along the way. Although both sides were allies, the nominal component was relatively large. In fact, there was not much contact between the two sides. In order to avoid unexpected situations, he could only bring people from the Bailian Sect.

The next morning, Deng Deming and Li Xianneng rushed to the nearby Putai and Gaoyuan. These two places [              Update Fast] Fang is not too far from Boxing, less than 60 miles away, which is not difficult for cavalry or infantry riding horses.

Not far outside the city, they sent a squadron under the banner of Guanning Army, like those Xingguo Towns, to move forward and open the city gate, and then launched a sudden attack.

The whole process went smoothly. Because they acted very quickly, the Guanning army did not know the news that Zu Kuan and Wu Sangui were wiped out. In addition, they were located in the rear and were relatively relaxed in defense. Seeing that someone was under their own banner, his clothes and armor were fine, he did not have any suspicion and opened the city gate.

After entering the city, they were not the ones who had the final say that they had lost. There were only less than a hundred people and were not prepared yet. Faced with the rapid attack of the two hundred Tian Ce troops, the county town was quickly captured without any resistance.

Then, according to the plan, all the seized were transported back to Weixian, and the gentry in the city were liquidated. In short, the supply that the Ming army could obtain from here was to minimize as much as possible.

During this period, Deng Deming and Li Xianneng always remembered Kong Youde's advice, that military discipline must be maintained and that they must not disturb the people.

Although these places will not enter the ruling areas of the Tiance Army for the time being, it is always right to have a better reputation. Although the Guanning Army can fight, the military discipline is really not good. If the Tiance Army occupies this place in the future, it can establish effective rule faster.

These days, Kong Youde has not been idle either. One of the conveniences is to carry out large-scale reinforcement and renovation of Changle and Shouguang counties received from the White Lotus Sect to improve the defense of these two counties. At the same time, it also built a camp in Gushan and Zongshan between the three counties as an additional support point.

On the other hand, it is to prepare for the attack on Qingzhou City. Although the difficulty this time is not as great as that of Laizhou, it will not be too easy.

After the Battle of Qingzhou, King Heng, Zhu Chang, was scared to death. King Heng, Zhu You, was worried about being attacked again and ended up like his father. He spent a lot of money and grain to help build the city. The local officials were also worried about their own safety and made many reinforcements and improvements to Qingzhou City. The defense of Qingzhou City is not bad now.
