The Qing army was defeated like a mountain, and when it was defeated, it quickly retreated into the city.

Under the leadership of the Iron Man Army, the Zheng family army entered the city in large numbers and seized the key rushes everywhere.

Lang Tingzuo's face was ashes. Under the escort of his personal soldiers, he retreated from the city and began to move to the city.

Now we can only start street fighting.

Although he knew that it would not last long, it was better to live without a single life than to die. It would be better to live for a moment.

"Father, our army won a great victory."

Zheng Jing, who had been watching the battle in the distance, was overjoyed when he saw that the Ming army had already controlled the city gates.

"The next thing is to clear the remnants of the Tartars retreating to the city."

"Um."

Zheng Chenggong nodded, but he didn't look happy.

The main reason was that Shi Lang, the dog thief, broke through the siege and ran away while the Ming army was not paying attention.

But Zheng Chenggong also knew that the most urgent task was to quickly destroy Lang Tingzuo and gain all control of Taizhou.

As for Shi Lang, let him survive for a few days first.

Anyway, this guy is a grasshopper in autumn and can't jump for a few days.

Zheng Chenggong can wait until the chaos in Zhejiang is resolved before he can deal with Shi Lang.

Shi Lang will be allowed to keep this head on his neck for a few more days, and no one can take it except Zheng Chenggong!

...

...

However, after Shi Lang led his troops out of Taizhou, he fled south without looking back.

After this battle, Lang Tingzuo will definitely die. The backbone of the Qing army in southern Zhejiang was lost, and his morale was naturally gone.

Shi Lang believes that the defense line built by the Qing army will soon be completely breached by Zheng Chenggong's troops, which is nothing more than a matter of time.

This is the right way to travel to Fujian.

Of course, to travel to Fujian, you still need to pass through some prefectures and counties.

Wenzhou is south of Taizhou.

Shi Lang just needs to speed along the official road to reach Wenzhou Prefecture.

If you are marching urgently, it will take only two or three days in total.

After arriving in Wenzhou, we are closer to Fujian.

Shi Lang will get closer and closer to safety.

Logically speaking, it should have given a meeting gift to join Geng Jimao.

Shi Lang was empty-handed.

After thinking about it, Shi Lang felt that it would be better to try to take away the Qing army stationed in Wenzhou Prefecture.

Although Wenzhou Prefecture has all the Green Camp soldiers and only ten thousand people, they are always better than the more than a thousand people he has now.

If you bring more than 10,000 troops into Fujian, Shi Lang will be much more beautiful and confident.

Otherwise, he would always feel that he would be controlled by Geng Jimao at will and completely fall into a passive state.

Although these green camp soldiers were directly obeyed Lang Tingzuo, Shi Lang could describe the situation in Taizhou to them with qigong. In this way, he believed that these Qing soldiers would be so scared that they would lose their ability to think and just want to run away.

Since they are all running away, why not run with Shi Lang?

At least Shi Lang was also a general appointed by the Qing court. There was still a glimmer of hope to follow Shi Lang, so that he would not run around like a headless fly.

After his determination, Shi Lang became more convinced of this idea and tried to arrive in Wenzhou as soon as possible with a whip.

...

...

In Taizhou City, the main force of the Qing army has been wiped out.

Lang Tingzuo led hundreds of people to retreat to the government office and made the final resistance.

He really didn't expect this battle to be so depressed.

It was Shi Lang, the dog thief who opened the city gate, otherwise he would not have lost so cowardly.

Now Lang Tingzuo wishes to peel Shi Lang and get cramps!

It turns out that people are shameless and invincible in the world.

Lang Tingzuo admitted that he lost to Shi Lang at this point!

"Brothers, you will follow me to the end, and I am very grateful."

Lang Tingzuo choked and said, "It is impossible for us to go out alive today. Since that's the case, we will fight the last battle for the Qing Dynasty. In this way, our family can at least receive preferential treatment from the court."

"Fight to the death, fight to the death!"

"See the Governor to the death!"

"Fight with Ming Thief!"

These are Lang Tingzuo's personal soldiers. They knew that they could not survive, so they planned to be loyal to Lang Tingzuo to the end.

"Very good? If the Ming thief rushed in, he would shoot me hard!"

The Qing army left some arrows? Although there were not many, they were enough to shoot for several rounds.

In Lang Tingzuo's opinion, Zheng Chenggong must have wanted to capture himself alive.

Then he can use this psychology to kill and injure Ming soldiers as much as possible.

Kill a few more times? You are not alone on the road to the underworld!

The Qing soldiers all shouted, like wild animals.

"Aim at the gate? The Ming thief will shoot me hard as long as he breaks the door!"

Lang Tingzuo smiled grimly and sat on the ground.

"Even if I die, I want you to accompany you!"

...

...

"Father, the thief has retreated to the government office, do you see?"

Now the Ming army has surrounded Taizhou government offices, and the inner and outer three layers are surrounded by water. Let alone humans? Even a fly cannot fly out.

"Just set the fire."

Zheng Chenggong said without any emotion.

Zheng Jing was stunned for a moment? He almost thought he had heard it wrong.

"Father? He burned? Wouldn't you capture the thief alive?"

No matter what, Lang Tingzuo was the governor of Liangjiang appointed by the Qing court, and he could be regarded as a big fish.

If the Zheng family could capture him and offer him a prisoner, it would be a huge contribution.

His Majesty the Emperor will definitely reward the Zheng family heavily for this.

Zheng Jing didn't know why his father had such a great contribution but he didn't want it!

"Jing'er, what would you do now?"

"Well..."

Zheng Jing was a little confused about Zheng Chenggong's thoughts and said timidly: "If the child is him? He will definitely fight to the end and try to pull a few more people."

Zheng Chenggong nodded.

“That’s it.”

He took a deep breath and said, "Lang Tingzuo must have wanted to kill a few more culls? So why should he be satisfied with his father? These are soldiers carefully trained for his father. Is their lives not as good as Lang Thief?"

After Zheng Chenggong said this, Zheng Jing suddenly realized it.

Anyway, Lang Tingzuo can't survive? Then what does it matter if he dies?

It’s just that capturing Lang Tingzuo alive can make His Majesty happier? It’s more respectable.

But if you want to exchange more soldiers' lives for these, it will not be worth it.

"After burning the thief to death, you can take his big bone back to Beijing to report his life."

Zheng Chenggong said without hesitation: "Let the fire!"

After Zheng Chenggong gave the order, the soldiers of the Zheng family army immediately began to comply with the execution.

They first poured tung oil into the government yamen, and then threw the ignited torch toward the government yamen.
