Chapter 364 Raiders of the Capital

Zhu Cilang had already made up his mind that the battles on the periphery could be left to Hu Qiang. If the capital was really recovered, Zhu Cilang would definitely have to rush over.

In handling some things, the following people are still not perfect enough. If the palace complex in the capital is destroyed, it will be like the treasures of the entire Chinese nation are gone.

Ten days later.

After receiving the order, Hu Qiang took the lead in taking his escort on the road. As for the army starting from Nanjing, they arranged for them to walk the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou, they would probably not be able to keep up in a short time.

Anyway, Hu Qiang mainly handed over the past, and he didn't need to fight so quickly. He had to wait for Dezhou City to become a logistics base before Hu Qiang would continue to go north with his people.

From this we can also see that Hu Qiang is really eager to make contributions, but this is actually very normal. After His Royal Highness took power, he enfeoffed three generals, and the others remained unchanged for the time being.

Two of these three generals were on the battlefield, but Hu Qiang stayed honestly behind him. Although Hu Qiang didn't say anything, he was also very anxious in his heart. It turned out that Gao Jie was so eager to make contributions. Hu Qiang is now ten times stronger than Gao Jie.

After receiving the imperial edict from the court, Li Guodong immediately ordered his army to station on the border of Dezhou and did not send anyone to continue moving north. Li Guodong knew very well what the prince's meaning was.

If this guy was a greedy man, he would never let his army stop. After just experiencing a great victory, the Qing army almost fled. If he wanted to attack north, he would have brought his subordinates into Zhili long ago.

"I said General Hu, you don't trust your brother so much, right? After receiving the imperial edict, you probably went day and night. Otherwise, you wouldn't have arrived at the Texas frontline so soon, right?"

When Hu Qiang appeared in front of Li Guodong, Li Guodong couldn't believe that this was true. You should know that according to the original days, Hu Qiang would have to come at least three days. Now he actually appeared in front of him. You can imagine how he was traveling these days.

Hu Qiang's little thoughts were told by Li Guodong, and his face was a little overwhelmed.

Speaking of which, they are all old brothers, and they don’t mind this matter. When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince started his troops in the capital, they were already his Royal Highness’s left and right hands, a little closer than Ye Yun’s side.

"You old Li, don't stand and speak without any pain in your back. You guys are all here and there. No one tells you when you sleep in Nanjing, but I, the general, feels so weak!"

Hu Qiang's words showed his current predicament, and what he said was correct. Although no one in the court dared to say more, can you still control what others say in private?

Many people are comparing the three generals of the court, Li Guodong and Ye Yun, naturally have their own contributions. Needless to say, this is true for Hu Qiang, the former imperial guard. Everyone can't find out what the contributions are. They can only say that he has made contributions to protecting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

But the problem is that this guard has made contributions, and Li Guodong and Ye Yun have it too. Hu Qiang felt that he was shorter than these two people, so he brought his own people to the front line quickly, wishing he had a great contribution at that time.

"Don't worry, Your Highness the Crown Prince will never be biased. Even if you want to be biased, you will be biased to your Lao Hu. You will soon reach the Zhili realm. With an imperial edict from Your Highness, I have to let my subordinates stand and watch. The rest is your business."

When Li Guodong said this, he felt a little sad. After all, who doesn’t want to regain the capital? Although it’s the same in various places, how is recorded in historical books? That’s very different. Can Texas be the same as the capital?

"These Manchu Dazi, who was a good city in Texas, will the disaster be like this?"

Hu Qiang was unwilling to continue talking about this issue, so he changed the subject first. From his position, he looked at some places in Texas City.

"Who said no? Fortunately, we came in quickly. You haven't been to Tai'an Mansion yet. If you go there, you will be so angry that you will be pissed to death. These Qing people are simply inhumane. So many people in the city set fires and set fires. They can still run away if they have good legs and feet. Those elderly and children with bad legs and feet are burned to death."

Speaking of this matter, Li Guodong was so angry that he was so angry.

"Don't worry, brothers will not let these Qing people have a good life after they arrive here. They will make a city like this, and they will have to let them build a better city for us in the future."

Hu Qiang was not a good person. When he heard Hu Qiang say this, Li Guodong also smiled. These Qing people will definitely not have a good life in the future.

"But there is something I have to remind you that you should try not to let soldiers fight in the city, and you should bring these Qing people out of the city. Even if you spend your energy to get them out of the city, it is much stronger than in the city. Our weapons advantages are all outside the city. If we engage in street fighting in the city, it will not be much advantage for us. Moreover, when attacking the city, our artillery is too sharp. Often, we can't stop after firing. This Texas City has become like this, and our artillery will also have a contribution."

They were very happy during the war, but this was not the case after the battle. They just cleaned up various construction waste in the city of Texas for seven or eight days. These were 30,000 prisoners of war and tens of thousands of people.

This labor force is not small, but it takes seven or eight days to clean it up. You can imagine how powerful the cannon is.

"What you said is very important. I have to remember it. After reaching Zhili, some places will not be able to use artillery."

Hu Qiang said with some embarrassment, and Li Guodong immediately thought of what Zhu Cixuan could think of, and they could think of it too.

The most important thing in Zhili is the capital.

The most important thing in the capital is the imperial city.

Back then, we were defending the imperial city, and all the artillery was fired from the inside out. Now we are attacking the imperial city. If the shells hit the wall of the imperial city, according to the current power of the cannon, how long can the imperial city wall last?

You can't let His Highness return to the court and return to the ruins, right?
