The city walls were crowded with Qing troops, the passages were blocked, and it was difficult to support each other.Zhang Cunren saw the Ming army driving a boat to attack, and knew that the city was finished.So he hurriedly slipped back, and hundreds of soldiers blocked the city wall, fighting desperately with the people of Fang Guoan.The city wall was full of Qing troops, the passage was blocked by dense crowds, and the Ming army had to kill the Qing army on the city wall if they wanted to catch up.At this time, on the other sides, the Ming army took a bamboo raft and began to attack the city in an all-round way, the soldiers first shot the Qing army at the head of the city with arrows and firearms, and the defenders jumped into the water in the rain of arrows in the sky, wanting to ski and escape.In one place at the head of the city, Ma Guanghui, who had just sent Huang Shu away, was desperately resisting the attack of the Ming army, but the defenders were killed and retreated, so anxious that Ma Guanghui waved his knife and shouted loudly: "Resist, resist me!"
”At this time, a herald rushed over and said to Ma Guanghui: "The military gate, the southern city has been lost, and the governor has let the military gate be behind." ”Ma Guanghui was shocked and asked anxiously, "Where is Zhang Zhongtang?"
”"Your Excellency the Governor has now gone to the North Gate!"
Ma Guanghui's face twitched muscles, and saw the Ming army rushing to the wall with a bamboo raft, and a grenade was thrown on the city wall, and the Qing army on the city wall was blown up, and the city was empty, and the Ming army took the opportunity to go to the city and slash the Qing army with a knife.Ma Guanghui let out a long sigh, and the Qing troops around him looked at him, all with a look of resentment, ready to fight with the Ming army.Ma Guanghui suddenly turned around and roared in a low voice, "Retreat!"
”In Beicheng, Zhang Cunren demolished the city tower, found some planks and timber, and set up dozens of rafts."
Lord Nakado, let's go!"
When the Qing army heard the shouts of killing, they saw that the rafts of the Ming army had entered the city, and they hurriedly admonished.Zhang Cunren sighed softly, "Didn't Ma Junmen come?"
”The surrounding officers all shook their heads, "Ma Junmen covers the evacuation of Zhongtang, Zhongtang should go first!"
”Zhang Cunren looked at the city of Hangzhou, which had become Zeguo, sighed, boarded the raft, and led hundreds of people to flee north.The raft had no sails or oars, but fortunately, the flood peak poured northward and took the raft north.In the vast muddy water, driftwood floated, and the dead bodies of people and livestock, dozens of rafts, each crowded with Qing troops, fled north in a hurry.Most of the Qing troops on the raft discarded their armor, and a considerable number of them, also lost their weapons so that the raft could carry more people.At this time, not long after the group left the city, a shout of killing came, and the Qing army on the raft suddenly exclaimed, "It's not good, the thief army is coming." ”Zhang Cunren, who was in shock, looked back and saw the Ming army chasing him in a small boat behind him, his heart immediately sank, and he shouted urgently, "Quick, row forward!"
”When the Qing soldiers saw the Ming army chasing after them, they were all broken, lying on the raft and paddling desperately, but the boats behind them were still getting closer and closer.After a short time, the boat caught up with the Qing army's raft, but the people on it did not shoot the Qing army with arrows, but also paddled desperately, passed by the side of the Qing army's raft, threw the Qing army's back, and rowed north."
It's Ma Junmen!"
The Qing army, whose arms were sore from rowing on the raft, stood up and saw several small boats in the distance, and their faces showed disbelief.Zhang Cunren's face sank, "How can this be true!"
Ma Guanghui was in charge of the rear of the palace, and the palace actually went to the front of the governor. ”The Qing army on the raft stood up and watched Ma Guanghui drive the boat to the front, and at this moment, a "bang, bang" fire sound sounded behind him, and the Qing soldiers who stood up were shot in the back and fell into the turbid flood.Behind the raft, the Ming army fleet chased and began to shoot the Qing army, Zhang Cunren glanced at the disappeared Ma Guanghui angrily, knowing that the speed of the raft was not as fast as the Ming army's boat, and roared with a trace of despair: "Rush to the mound in front." ”The Qing soldiers on the raft were constantly shot to death by the Ming army, and their bodies fell into the water, turning red in the turbid flood.The Qing army rowed the raft desperately, rushed to a hill that was not flooded, the raft collided directly, the Qing soldiers ran up the hill with a rolling belt, the Ming warship rowed, Zhang Mingzhen waved his hand and shouted: "Fence up!"
”At dusk, the battle in Hangzhou had come to an end, and groups of Qing prisoners were confiscated and tied to the city.The Ming soldiers rode small boats and bamboo rafts through the city, cleaning the roofs of the Qing troops one by one, rescuing the affected people, and moving people to higher places.Zhu Yihai did not enter Hangzhou City, but surrounded by hundreds of guards, accompanied by Zhang Huangyan and others, to check the gap in the river embankment.At this time, after learning that Hangzhou was captured, thousands of Ming troops and nearly 10,000 people had begun to throw soil bags and stones into the gap, intending to block the gap."
Now that Hangzhou is down, it needs to treat the victims as soon as possible, and the first thing to do is to plug the gaps and dredge the waterways so that the flood waters can recede as soon as possible."
Zhu Yihai was in a heavy mood.Zhang Huang said: "Your Highness, soldiers and horses and people have been sent everywhere to block the breach, open the soil bag to dredge the water, and the flood will subside in two or three days at most." ”Zhu Yihai nodded and continued: "This time, many people have suffered misfortune, and the government must immediately treat them, and after the catastrophe, it is necessary to prevent the epidemic, and all states and counties must prepare in advance. ”Zhang Huangyan said: "Your Highness, rest assured, a large number of people have been evacuated before, and the people near Hangzhou are mainly affected, and the army is moving them to higher places.He ordered the soldiers to dispose of the corpses, and seconded the medical officer team of the Eastern Navy to enter the counties to prevent the outbreak of the epidemic. ”"When the victims gather in one place, it is inevitable that some people will fish in troubled waters, and give orders to all armies, but all the defeated soldiers who are caught with the crimes of robbery, wounding, and adultery will be executed, and the Ming soldiers will be guilty of the same crime!"
Zhu Yihai instructed in a deep voice.At this time, a group of soldiers approached the shore and carried a corpse from the boat, which was placed on a stretcher and covered with a white cloth.The old handsome Zhang Mingzhen jumped off the boat, came to Zhu Yihai's side, and saluted with a fist, "Your Highness Qiqi, Ma Guanghui slipped away, but the minister trapped Zhang Cunren!"
”After speaking, Zhang Mingzhen opened the white cloth, revealing a pale corpse, his body was covered with blood holes, and there was a long scar on his neck, which was shocking.Zhang Mingzhen explained: "On the way to pursue Ma Guanghui, the minister bumped into Zhang Cunren and trapped him in a low hill, besieged on all sides, the remnants of the Qing army were all killed, and Zhang Cunren was wounded by the fire gun and killed himself on the mountain. ”Zhu Yihai looked at Zhang Cunren's corpse in front of the sea, when he attacked Hangzhou for the first time, he was defeated at the hands of this person, losing tens of thousands of soldiers, and then collapsed, and was swept by the Qing army in eastern Zhejiang.Now seeing Zhang Cunren's corpse, Zhu Yihai didn't feel pleasure in his heart, but just ordered: "Cut off his head, and pass on the head to Zhejiang!"
