You have your plan, and I have my ladder.
For Zhang Kewang, the fortress group near Chengdu was originally used to delay time.
He could accept these fortresses being breached as long as Zhang Dingguo's returning army arrived by then.
Both sides have their own plans, and their execution is unambiguous.
The Qing army strived to conquer quickly, while the Western army delayed as long as it could.
The Qing army did not want to consume too much strength when attacking these affiliated fortresses, and was only willing to send out green battalions to fight.
In this case, the Qing army was unable to make a final decision.
Hong Chengchou became a little angry.
These green soldiers are too useless.
They can't complete such a simple task.
What's the use of them?
But scolding will return to scolding, anger will return to anger, and this battle will have to continue.
In desperation, Hong Chengchou had no choice but to send the elites of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty to replace the Green Camp troops and attack the fortress.
The soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty did not disappoint Hong Chengchou.
They took the initiative as soon as they entered the battle and captured the entire fortress group in a short time.
At this point, Hong Chengchou could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The removal of these fortresses near Chengdu meant that the Qing army had no worries and could besiege Chengdu with confidence.
After communicating with Bolo, Hong Chengchou decided to assign some wounded men to garrison these forts to prevent the Western Army from occupying them again.
The next task is very simple, that is to win Chengdu in one go.
How to fight is a question.
It is difficult to attack by force.
Chengdu is a fortified city with heavy troops of the Western Army gathered in the city.
Zhang Kewang was well prepared, and a strong attack at this time would simply cost him his life.
Bombing the city with coffins was a good idea, but Hong Chengchou still felt unsure.
The city wall in Chengdu is really too thick.
Such a thick wall may not be able to be exploded.
After thinking about it for a while, Hong Chengchou still felt that using time was the safest option.
The so-called room was often used as early as when Huang Taiji was in power, causing the Ming army a headache.
By the time of Dorgon's regency, this tactic was well preserved.
The Qing army sent people into the city in advance to create chaos and open the city gate.
The Qing army suddenly rushed out and invaded at the agreed time.
Because of their lack of preparedness, the city's defenders often lost control of the city before they could react.
What awaited them next would be a massacre without any suspense.
After Hong Chengchou reported his idea to Bolo, the Qing Baylor immediately beamed.
Although he did not have much experience in commanding troops, he also knew that subduing the enemy's troops without fighting was the best result.
If the Qing army can capture Chengdu without losing any troops, and the news is spread back to Beijing, the regent will definitely take a high look at him.
Of course, Bolo had no intention of getting involved in the specific details and was going to leave it to Hong Chengchou to arrange it.
Hong Chengchou, this old fox, has a lot of evil in his belly, and he will definitely be able to come up with a perfect plan.
After Hong Chengchou sent Bolo away, he immediately called Tong Yanghe to discuss the specific details of the calculation.
Tong Yanghe had a lot of bad things in his stomach.
Hearing that Hong Chengchou wanted to use his time to destroy the city, he was immediately happy.
"Governor Hong, it's a good idea to use this method.
Isn't that kid Zhang Kewang very capable?
This time, let him understand what is ginger or old and spicy."
Hong Chengchou narrowed his eyes and said: "The most important thing about using the room is to put people in.

Now Chengdu City is probably under martial law.
If you want people to sneak in, you really have to think of a way.
Does Governor Tong have any clever ideas?
" "This is it, hehe" Tong Yanghe rubbed his palms and said, "Of course ordinary people can't get in at this time, but there is one exception."
"oh" Hong Chengchou suddenly became interested and asked: "What kind of person is he?"
"Monk" Tong Yanghe said categorically: "Monks are the exception.
I don't think Zhang Hope will stop monks from entering the city.
What threat can they pose to Chengdu if they are unarmed?"
"kindness."
This answer is unexpected, but it is also reasonable.
Hong Chengchou thought about it carefully and felt that it was indeed a good idea.
"But where can we find so many monks?"
"Haha, Governor Hong is kidding, this monk doesn't get as much as he wants."
Tong Yanghe deliberately sold it out.
"How do you say this?"
Hong Chengchou asked.
"In a large army, there is no limit to how many monks you want.
Of course, they must understand Chinese.
Soldiers from the green camp are unreliable.
Soldiers from the Han army flag are the most suitable."
Tong Yanghe gently stroked his beard and gave the answer.
That's right Tong Yanghe's words awakened the dreamer, and Hong Chengchou suddenly understood.
Yes, why didn't he think of it?
According to the rules of the Manchus, all soldiers and civilians under the rule must shave their heads.
The entire head is shaved bald, except for a small bunch of money rat tails on the back of the head, not a single hair is left.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the soldiers to grow their hair in a short time, but it was extremely easy to get them to twist their braids and shave their heads.
Yes, Qing army soldiers pretending to be monks have a natural advantage.
It is true that they can get as many as they want.
This Tong Yanghe really has a lot of troubles Hong Chengchou nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, this is a good idea.
However, the governor is still a little worried.
Most of the soldiers in the Han Army Banner are from Liaodong and have strong accents.
Will they arouse the vigilance of the Western thieves?"
Although Han Junqi and Green Camp Soldiers are essentially Han Chinese, if you look closely, you can still tell a lot of differences.
Most of the soldiers of the Han Army Banner were Liaodong people.
They followed the Manchus very early, so they were classified as bannermen.
Except that they can speak Chinese, there is no difference between this kind of people and Manchurians.
Their living customs and eating habits are almost exactly the same.
The most serious problem is the accent.
Even if it is done deliberately, the local accent cannot change in a short time.
It's okay if the Han army flag soldiers don't open their mouths, but if they open their mouths, their thick Liaodong accent will be revealed immediately.
We can’t explain that they are monks from Liaodong who came all the way to Chengdu to pray for Buddha.
But Tong Yanghe didn't seem anxious at all.
He paused for a moment and said: "Governor Hong, there is no need to worry.
I have some flag soldiers who do not have Liaodong accents."
"Oh why is that" "It's a long story.

I'll explain it slowly to the Governor when I have time.
But for now, let's focus on the war."
Tong Yanghe didn't seem to want to explain this issue in detail.
Naturally, Hong Chengchou didn't want to continue to dig deeper and jumped over.
"It makes sense, it makes sense.
Then I will leave this matter to Governor Tong.
You can just let it go and I will never interfere."
Hong Chengchou said quietly while stroking his beard: "If this plan can help our army capture Chengdu, I will personally go to the table to ask for credit for Governor Tong."
"Thank you very much, Lord Governor."
Tong Yanghe said with a half-smile
