Tong Yanghe's doubts were naturally expected by Hong Chengchou.
But he didn't care at all.
He is the commander-in-chief responsible for this battle and can act arbitrarily when necessary.
What's more, Hong Chengchou has deduced the entire plan many times before, and every detail has been carefully scrutinized, so there will definitely be no problems.
Today he will make the first contribution to the creation of the world "Governor Tong is optimistic that I will definitely blow up the Baoning city wall."
Hong Chengchou said with great momentum.
On top of the city, Zhang Xianzhong frowned.
I don’t know if the people sent out to report the news broke through the Tatar blockade, and I don’t know if Dingguo and Nengqi knew that the Tatars had sneaked into the rear.
Just relying on defense would be too demoralizing even if it could be done.
Zhang Xianzhong really wanted to fight the Tatars at this moment.
"It's your mother's fault, but your grandma's fault is better."
Zhang Xianzhong clenched his fists and spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm.
"Father, I wonder if the Tatars are waiting for something?
Are they waiting for the red cannon?"
Zhang Kewang also felt that it was strange that the Tatars had not attacked for a long time, so he swallowed and spat.
"impossible" Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand and said: "The red cannon is so heavy that it is extremely difficult to transport on flat ground.
It is impossible to transport the red cannon across Daba Mountain."
What Zhang Xianzhong said is indeed reasonable.
Daba Mountain is dangerous, and the red cannon is so heavy.
If the Qing army really transported the red cannon, it would be unless they had supernatural powers.
"Then what should we do now?"
Zhang Kewang said somewhat uneasily.
God knows what tricks the Tatars are secretly cooking up, but it’s really unsettling to wait like this.
"I don't believe they can change the world if they remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing conditions."
Zhang Xianzhong has experienced many big scenes.
Although the current situation is urgent, it is not enough to scare him to the point of peeing.
Besides, the best way now is to wait.
Anyway, they are on the defensive side, so there is no need to worry.
"Your Majesty the Governor, the tunnel has been dug."
A soldier came to Hong Chengchou and said respectfully.
"Oh, the coffins were delivered so quickly."
Hong Chengchou was a little surprised.
This speed was faster than he expected.
"Everything has been arranged according to your requirements.
As long as you give the order, you can light the primer."
"Okay, okay" Hong Chengchou felt very satisfied, stroked his beard and said: "You have done a good job.
Order everyone to move farther away and light the fuse."
Since this was his first attempt, Hong Chengchou was unsure of the safe distance, so he asked the soldiers to make the lead longer.
This will give you enough time to evacuate to a safe location if a fire ignites in the future.
All the Qing soldiers were curious.
They all wanted to see how powerful the killer weapon Governor Hong mentioned was.
Everything was ready and the primer was finally ignited.
Seeing the sparks flying around the hook, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
Can gunpowder really blow up a city wall?
I don't know how long it took for the sparks to finally fly underground.

After a while, everyone heard a loud bang, followed by rubble flying, and thick dust billowing up until it covered the sky.
Everyone looked horrified.
What you just looked like was almost like an earthquake.
The power of this gunpowder is so terrifying.
"Kill, kill in" According to the original plan, the Qing soldiers must launch a charge as soon as possible after the explosion, so as to catch the defenders off guard.
After the military order was issued, the green battalion soldiers commanded by Liu Jinzhong rushed to the front, followed by Tong Yang and his Han army flag soldiers.
As for the elite Manchu Eight Banners commanded by Shuo Zhan, they were holding the formation around Hong Chengchou, with no intention of stepping forward to fight.
Naturally, someone will do this kind of life-threatening work for you.
Gradually, the smoke and dust dissipated, and the Qing soldiers were able to see clearly the scene in front of them.
I saw that a large section of the city wall collapsed towards the inner city, forming a gentle slope.
The Qing soldiers were overjoyed.
In this way, they can climb up without even using ladders or other tools.
Green camp soldiers launched the first wave of charge
This battle was the first time Liu Jinzhong participated in a war after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, so he was naturally eager to perform meritoriously.
He wanted to prove to Governor Hong and Governor Tong that Liu Jinzhong's role was not only to provide the Qing army with the truth about Zhang Xianzhong's deployment in Sichuan, but he was also a rare and fierce general.
"Come on, rush on.
The first one to rush into the city will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."
There must be a brave man under a heavy reward.
In order to prove himself to the Qing court, Liu Jinzhong also risked his life.
The green battalion soldiers rushed towards the gentle slope like a tide.
Although they were affiliated with the Daxi Army not long ago, there was no psychological pressure in this counterattack.
In troubled times, changing flags and flags is all too common.
If you want to survive, you must fall into the arms of the strong.
The only reason to blame is that Zhang Xianzhong was not as strong as the Qing army.
The Daxi Army in the city obviously had not yet reacted to the shock. what just happened Only a loud noise was heard, and then the wall collapsed It was Zhang Xianzhong who reacted immediately.
"Send people to block the collapsed wall quickly."
Zhang Kewang woke up as if from a dream, nodded suddenly and said: "My son, I obey."
Of course he understood what it meant to let the Tatars enter the city.
As long as a few thousand, no, just a few hundred Tatars entered the city, they could create chaos and take the opportunity to open the city gate.
Once the city gate is opened, the main force of the Tatars can march straight in and directly fight the Western Army in hand-to-hand combat.
Although Zhang Kewang is not as good at leading troops as Zhang Dingguo, he also understands what are advantages, disadvantages, victory and defeat.
The Daxi Army was originally at an advantage, but now it suddenly became a disadvantage.
If the Tatars are allowed to enter the city, they will be defeated.
No, he has to resist and wait for Dingguo to come to his aid.
The 20,000 soldiers led by Zhang Xianzhong are all elites in the Daxi Army, and their combat effectiveness is considerable.
Under Zhang Kewang's command, they dropped the rolling logs again and again to block the Green Camp soldiers' attack.
This method is very practical.
The Green Camp soldiers climb completely by relying on their hands and feet without any auxiliary tools, so if they are hit by a rolling log, they will directly roll down.
"Kill, kill the traitor"
The soldiers of the Daxi Army had already recognized that these charging Green Camp soldiers were Liu Jinzhong's troops who had surrendered not long ago.
They all stared angrily and their eyes were red.
It feels very unpleasant to be betrayed, especially by the former Pao Ze brothers.
When the rolling logs are used up, there are still stones, and when the stones are used up, there is still rain of arrows.
In short, the Daxi Army soldiers resisted desperately to prevent the Green Camp soldiers from taking a step forward.
"Governor Hong, this is a bit troublesome."

Tong Yanghe frowned and said worriedly.
"Don't worry, wait until the Western bandits are almost exhausted, and then let the Han army put up the banner and attack the city in one fell swoop."
Hong Chengchou didn't care at all about the lives of the soldiers, especially the lives of the Green Camp soldiers.
Once a general succeeds, all his bones will wither, and these people will be sacrificed
