After two days of marching, Liu Hansan's troops arrived in De'an County.

In order to make merit, Li Lianfan volunteered to play the striker.

He let some of the soldiers disguised as rout soldiers who had escaped from Jiujiang, and deceived the city gate of De'an County, and then the rout soldiers instantly showed their fangs, and beat De'an County without any effort.

There was no suspense and no fierce battle at all. In the end, the Qing army killed more than 20 people, injured more than 40 people, and the remaining 2,000 people surrendered.

As for Wu Jun, no one was killed or injured, creating a precedent of zero casualties.

If it weren't for the deaths of some people from the Qing army, this battle would have been just like playing a family.

"This trick is quite useful. I ordered the entire city to be blocked, so as not to let the news leak out. Next, we will continue to use this trick."

Liu Hansan laughed and said, being able to easily take down the city is naturally the most wonderful thing. As long as the news is not leaked, this trick can be used repeatedly when attacking the city behind.

The next day, Liu Hansan left a few hundred people to defend the city, and then led the army to continue south.

It took two days to reach Yongxiu, and then it took another full day to cross the river.

Compared to siege, marching is their trouble.

On May 24th, Liu Han's three troops arrived at Xixia Town, and then 4,000 people from Li Lianfan's troops left the main force and arrived at Nanchang first.

"Quickly open the city gate, I am Li Lianfan, the guerrilla general of Lucked's Hundred Account. Our army was defeated in Jiujiang. I was ordered to lead my troops back to Nanchang to assist in the garrison."

Li Lianfan came to the city and shouted.

Hearing Li Lianfan's self-destruction of the name of the source, the soldiers on the city wall hurriedly ran to report to the general of Nanchang, Zhun Haer.

Zhunhal saw Li Lianfan and recognized Li Lianfan at a glance.

However, Zhunhal had a natural distrust of Han generals. In addition, he had already learned the news of Jiujiang City's destruction before, so he was more cautious at this time.

Because only a few soldiers and shrimps escaped from Jiujiang to Nanchang, Zhunhal now only knows that Jiujiang City is broken, but he doesn't know the specific news.

He was also dubious about Li Lianfan's words.

"General Li, how is the situation in Jiujiang now?"

asked Hal.

"I don't know very well, when the city was broken, the general ordered me to go south with General Gong Adai to garrison Nanchang, and ordered General Azali to break the queen.

When I went south with General Gong Adai, I was chased and besieged by the Ming army. General Gong Adai had already died, and our army suffered heavy losses, with only 4,000 soldiers left. I hope that General Zhunhal will open the city gate quickly, and the Ming army who is chasing our army will arrive soon, and there will be no chance at that time. "

Li Lianfan's words are three-point true and seven-point false, and what he said is so eloquent that Zhun Haer can't judge whether it is true or false.

If it is someone else, I am afraid that the city gate has been opened at this time, otherwise it will easily lead to internal conflicts and discord between the army.

However, because of his natural distrust of Han people, Zhun Haer subconsciously prefers that Li Lianfan is lying.

Thinking along this line of thought, Zhun Hal found some situations that could verify his guesses.

For example, all those who escaped with Li Lianfan were Han soldiers, and there were no Manchu soldiers from the Eight Banners, which is very strange.

According to Zhun Haer's understanding, when encountering an ambush, the task of breaking the post must be handed over to the Han army, and it must be the Eight Banners army who can escape.

But now, the situation has actually reversed, the Eight Banners soldiers have been annihilated, but these Han soldiers have escaped. Isn't this strange?

Even if Li Lianfan was lucky, the focus of the Ming army's ambush was Gong Adai. However, Gong Adai's subordinates won't be wiped out, and some people will always escape.

Another doubt is that since the Qing army had already suffered a major defeat, why did Li Lianfan not surrender, but instead fled for hundreds of miles, and insisted on coming to Nanchang to fight to the death.

When did the generals of the Han nationality become so strong and loyal to the Qing Dynasty?

In short, quasi-Hall is unbelievable.

"General Li wait a moment, I'll let someone open the city gate."

Zhunhal then ordered the gates to be opened, but he ordered only the first gate to be opened, and then arranged for someone to ask Li Lianfan's people to put down their weapons before entering the city.

If Li Lianfan refused, he would arrange for someone to shoot him.

If Li Lianfan accepted it, it would be better. Soldiers without weapons are not much better than ordinary people. They can control them.

Although this will offend Li Lianfan, it is better than safety. Zhunhal was used to being arrogant and domineering when facing Han generals, and he didn't care about offending them at all.

Li Lianfan didn't know what Zhun Haer's plan was, and thought that the plan was successful, and happily arranged for his men to enter the city. And let them attack the city as soon as they enter the city and take down the city gate.

At the same time, he also sent a fast horse to report to the rear.

The vanguard was a team of more than 300 people. They passed the first gate and entered the urn city, and then found that the second gate was still closed, and the battalion commander who led the troops suddenly felt a little uneasy.

"The general said, put down your weapons first, and then enter the city."

The leader of the Qing army who was in charge of the response said.

"What do you mean, co-authors don't believe us. I was born and died, and this knife has never left my body. If I want me to put down my weapon, come and try it."

The Wu army battalion commander yelled, if they handed the weapons into the hands of the opponent, they would not be able to launch an attack when they entered the city.

Therefore, no matter what the other party said, it was impossible for him to hand over the weapon.

Moreover, he has vaguely felt that the other party is aware and prepared, and this time cheating the city gate is estimated to fail.

"If you don't put down your arms, you will be treated as a traitor to the party."

The leader of the Qing army was tough.

"Fuck your mother."

The battalion commander who led the troops suddenly attacked, stabbed the leader with a knife, and then shouted: "It's been revealed, quickly retreat."

The sudden change made the Qing army who came to respond immediately became nervous. Their number was much smaller than the Wu army in front of them.

However, Wu Jun didn't think about killing the other party. At this time, they were already in danger. If they didn't withdraw in time, when the enemy closed the city gate, they would be the turtles in the urn.

Seeing Wu Jun's hasty retreat, Zhun Haer said angrily, "It really is a group of traitors who ordered to shoot arrows."

Although he had anticipated it in advance, when the truth was real, Zhun Hal was also uncontrollably angry. At the same time, there is a concern.

He did not see any of the high-ranking generals like Luck Dehun and Gong Adai, nor did he see any Manchu soldiers. This does not mean that the Qing army suffered a major defeat in Jiujiang.

Jiujiang City was broken, and the only way for them to retreat was in the direction of Nanchang. Without waiting for them now, it is very likely that they have already died in battle.

Thinking of this, Zhun Hal was a little flustered.

He only has more than 10,000 people in his hands, how can he defend this lonely Nanchang, how can he defend this Jiangxi.

What's more terrifying is that he has no way out now.
