Dominate the Country

April 18, the thirty-second year of Qianlong's reign. Chen Jiajun captured Lushan County.

The Xiangyong of the Qing army who fled back to Lushan from the Tumenji battlefield was frightened and collapsed when faced with the "Flying Thunder Cannon" magic weapon used by Chen Jiajun again. With just a simple shelling, two explosive packets blew down the west tower of Lushan, and the entire Lushan city defense collapsed completely.

In Lushan County, the Xu family was in a state of desolation.

Xu Pengchun was like a dying old man, sitting in the main hall of the Xu family, waiting for the arrival of Chen Jiajun.

Xu Pengchun knew that Chen Jiajun would never let the Xu family go. So he asked Xu Pengqiu to run away with the rest of the Xu family, take the family's gold and silver wealth, and sit in the hall waiting to die.

Because the Xu family was defeated in his hands, no matter whether every member of the Chen family would be killed by the imperial court in the future, it was undeniable that the Xu family suffered a catastrophe and a fatal blow. Xu Pengchun has no face to see his ancestors! He was a prodigal, and he would rather die to atone for his sins. Use your own life and your status as a judge to find a way for the Xu family in the future.

Xu Pengchun still firmly believed that the imperial court could quell the chaos. He had full confidence in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty was rich in the world, with millions of soldiers and horses, and hundreds of millions of money and food. How many thieves did the Chen family have? Today's rampage is just what the villain wants. He firmly believed that the Chen family was destined to be wiped out, despite the fact that the Chen family had a powerful cannon.

Therefore, Xu Pengchun would rather die in the hands of the Chen family's army. After the court wipes out the Chen family's thieves, he will be a loyal and unyielding righteous man. For the sake of his life-saving work, the imperial court would surely allow the Xu family to get back some of their property.

Noises and footsteps entered the main hall, and along with a gust of wind, a group of men wearing armor and holding soldiers appeared in front of Xu Pengchun. A sad smile appeared on Xu Pengchun's old face.

The dignified Xu family, the first family of Lushan gentry, ended up in this situation due to one careless move. Xu Pengchun looked at Daoguang who was about to chop his head off and felt regretful. A difference of one thought, a difference of one thought!

The person who beheaded Xu Pengchun was a young man with eyes full of hatred. Half of his body was dyed red with blood. The young man also grabbed Xu Pengchun's head and presented it to Chen Ming. Chen Ming had an impression of this young man. He knew that this young man, who was related to Huang Zicong by blood and had not yet played the fifth server, his parents, wife and children all died that night...

In the view of the Tumenji people, the Xu family was an accomplice in the tragedy that night.

Chen Ming looked at the head in front of him. Xu Pengchun's facial expression was very ferocious. This half-hundred-year-old man who had controlled the Xu family for many years and was the leader of the gentry in Lushan County did not know whether he regretted his decision at that moment before he died. But everything was settled. Chen Jiajun relied on flying thunder cannons to defeat Wu Shixiong's five thousand troops in one fell swoop. The commander-in-chief of the Qing army and the deputy general of Nanyang Town was not seen alive or dead. It is very likely that he was killed when things were critical. Then he plunged into the mountain next to him. Most of his two thousand Nanyang town soldiers and three thousand prefectural militiamen were prisoners. Who allowed Chen Ming to have so many mountain people? The endurance itself is strong. Moreover, Chen Ming also has a cavalry team.

It was in that battle that Chen Ming truly experienced the fun and rewards of "hunting" when the green battalion soldiers and the militia soldiers fled.

Without his persistent pursuit, at least 3,500 people from the 2,000 Nanyang town soldiers and 3,000 militiamen would have retreated from Lushan County. You must know that the number of corpses collected by Chen Jiajun after the war was very small, barely more than 500, among which one or two hundred people were directly killed by thunder cannons. Under this situation, could the Chen Jiajun capture a thousand Qing soldiers and militia on the battlefield? That's obviously a very difficult number.

But because Chen Ming's soldiers pursued him all the way to Lushan County, not even one of the three pavilions of the five thousand Qing soldiers and militiamen could escape back to the county town alive. The price Chen Jiajun paid was negligible, but what he gained was as many as half of the Qing army's total strength as prisoners of war.

Under such circumstances, the defeated Qing army and militiamen were so frightened that they simply did not dare to face the Chen family army again. So, when the explosive packets hit the west city of Lushan County, and when the explosion that was louder and more devastating than the nine-day thunder occurred again, they collapsed instantly.

The Chen Jiajun captured Lushan County at a very small price. A white silk ribbon fell into the county office hall of the new Lushan County Magistrate. Huang Piao also knew about his family affairs. In order to save his family who had no time to escape, he also ended himself with a rope. life. There was also the Jiaoyu from Lushan County. It was said that this person had no enmity or enmity with the Chen family, and even had a favor. However, under the overwhelming situation, the eighth-grade Jiaoyu did not hesitate to end himself with a rope. life.

The favor he had inherited from the Chen family had won a safe environment for his family. Chen Ming is a person who holds grudges and loves affection very much. If Jiaoyu dies, then he should protect Jiaoyu's family.

Therefore, comparing the confiscated Li Tianhe family and the new county magistrate's family, Jiaoyu's wife and children will have the best life in the future.

The Chen family residence in the south of the city.

Standing here again, Chen Hui, Chen Ming and his son couldn't help but feel a sense of joy. Especially Chen Hui, when he left Lushan County that day, he thought it was his farewell to Lushan County and that he would never set foot here again in the future. Unexpectedly, today I would return to Lushan County as a more manly person.

Chen Hui turned around every room in the house, including the very advanced toilet, and her excitement could not calm down for a long time.

"Dad, now that we have captured Lushan, the main force of Nanyang Town has almost been completely destroyed. There is no force in western Henan that can stop us. We can easily take Ye County and Yancheng next, and sweep Ruzhou, Xuzhou, Nanyang Prefecture and Henan Prefecture."

"The 1,000 soldiers of Guide Town in the east have just entered Chenzhou Prefecture, and it is unknown whether the troops of Yunyang Town in the south have entered Nanyang Prefecture. These two Qing armies are not a big threat to us now. Even after hearing the news of the defeat of Nanyang Town, they are very likely to stay on the spot and hesitate to move forward. But we must see the threats from the east and south. Especially in the south, the court has too many troops in this area."

Chen Hui nodded, he knew what Chen Ming meant. There are three military towns in a row behind Nanyang Town. Such a dense deployment of troops in such a place is extremely rare in the entire Qing Dynasty. Chen Hui's finger involuntarily pointed to the location of Fangcheng on the map-there is the exit of the Nanyang Basin.

If the Chen family army can capture Fangcheng and block the Nanyang Basin, the southern Qing army must go north from Wusheng Pass in Xinyang, pass Xinyang Prefecture, and then cross the entire Runing Prefecture to reach Yancheng in the south of Xuzhou before entering Henan. And before entering Henan, they need to cross half of Hubei to enter De'an Prefecture.

"Dad, in my opinion, we should divide our troops into multiple routes. One route goes south to seize Ye County and Wuyang, and approach Fangcheng. There are also many private miners in these counties, which is just right to strengthen our army. Another route goes north to seize Baofeng and Jia County, and directly approach Zhoucheng and Yiyang. The private mines in Baofeng have all been smashed by us, but there are still poor mountain people who only have one life left. Gold, silver and treasures are not as useful to us as real soldiers now. Spending a lot of money is enough to attract people.

We are now for a month. As long as we can expand the army to 5,000 people in a month, we will still be able to fight when the Qing soldiers come again-"
