Zheng Zhilong, that’s Zheng Zhilong It was Zheng Zhilong who was conferred the title of Marquis of Nan'an by the Ming Dynasty and the post of Chief Military Officer of Fujian.
Wu Erhu couldn't think of any reason for Zheng Zhilong to surrender to the Qing Dynasty.
"Seriously, we really want to persuade Zheng Zhilong to surrender."
Wu Erhu's voice was trembling, and his breathing became much faster.
"Of course it is true that my master has a great strategy and has planned everything long ago.
As Wu San is in charge, this is an excellent opportunity to make contributions to the Qing Dynasty.
If this matter is done well, glory and wealth will be within reach. " Mr.
Wang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly became talkative, and his words were filled with foam.
Wu Erhu was also tempted by the wonderful prospects he described.
He swallowed, licked his chapped lips, and said softly: "What can I do?"
Human nature is selfish.
In the beginning, Wu Erhu was unwilling to go to Fujian because he could not get any tangible benefits at all.
But now things are completely different.
If he could recruit Zheng Zhilong for the Qing government, then he would naturally be credited with many credits.
"Let's sail the ship to Fujian first, and then we'll listen to someone's orders."
Mr.
Wang said word by word.
"Your Majesty, the Ming Army is the Ming Army."
Ye Chen shouted in surprise.
Duduo looked over following his voice and saw thousands of horses galloping towards him.
At this time, the Qing army was attacking the city with all its strength, and the Chinese army was very empty and weak, with only about a thousand people.
And seeing that the Ming army had at least several thousand cavalry, they might not be able to withstand the charge of so many cavalry.
The Eight Banners are all warriors, but warriors are not made of steel.
When encountering cavalry encampment, warriors will bleed, get injured, and die.
For the first time in his life, Dodo felt fear.
"My lord, please make a decision early."
Ye Chen respectfully dissuaded him from the side.
"Withdraw troops" Duduo squeezed these two words out of his mouth with great difficulty.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The low conch horn sounded again, and the Qing army who stormed the city was stunned.
One is short and two is long, is this about retreating?
Did they hear it right?
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The trumpet sounds became more and more urgent, and they were finally convinced that they had not heard wrongly, but that they were really going to retreat.
The mentality of the Eight Banners soldiers varied.
Some breathed a sigh of relief, some were vaguely unwilling, and some were secretly happy.
The execution ability of the Eight Banners soldiers is still very strong.
Except for the Zhenglan Banner led by Joluo Bahana, who acted as the vanguard, the damage to the other banners was not too serious.
They quickly retreated and approached the Chinese army.
There is a handsome flag there, so there is nothing wrong with leaning there.
But something happened that surprised them.
The handsome flag moved The handsome flag actually moved And the speed of movement is not slow.
What's going on?
Did Prince Yu run away?
The disciples of the Eight Banners did not want to believe this fact.
How could Prince Yu, whom they admired for his incomparable wisdom and martial prowess, escape?
But their instinct still told them to lean towards the handsome flag as much as possible.

Then a strange scene happened.
Duduo's central army was running, followed by the elite Eight Banners, and at the end was the Ming army commanded by Gao Jie.
The Eight Banners Army was actually chased by the Ming Army In fact, this is caused by poor information communication on the battlefield.
Duduo's first reaction when he saw the Ming army attacking the Chinese army's main formation was definitely to run, because he could not stop the Ming army's charge with only 1,800 men.
And the reaction of the Eight Banners soldiers afterwards was not wrong either.
Because they heard the sound of the conch trumpet and heard the order to retreat.
If we insist on pointing out any problem, it is the inability to communicate in a timely manner on the battlefield.
Duduo could not stop and wait for the Eight Banners soldiers to return to their positions, he had to take the first step.
This gives people a feeling of panic and defeat.
In fact, the main force of the Eight Banners was not too damaged.
Gao Jie was also surprised.
He received the emperor's order to reinforce Dezhou and was prepared for a bloody battle.
Who would have thought that Duduo would run away like a rabbit.
Gao Jie ordered his men to pursue him for a while and then stopped pursuing him.
First of all, the Eight Banners Army is all cavalry, and their mounts are all high-quality Mongolian horses.
Compared with the explosive power of their feet alone, the Ming army's mounts are no match.
Secondly, the Eight Banners Army suffered little losses, and they would not gain much advantage when they regrouped for a head-on confrontation with Gao Jie's troops.
It would be better to take advantage of the defeat of the Eight Banners Army and seize all the red cannons, trebuchets and other siege equipment.
You must know that it is impossible for the Qing army to rebuild the trebuchet in a short time.
As for the red cannon, it was even more scarce.
Unless Kong Youde reinforced Dezhou, Duduo could only stare at the city wall.
Duduo ran for a long time and finally felt safe.
He stopped, raised his flag, regrouped, and counted his troops.
What pleased him was that the Qing army's attrition was not serious, and it still had at least 89% of its strength.
It's just a pity that the cannons and trebuchets were thrown away.
However, no matter how important the siege equipment is, it is not as important as the people.
Especially the Manchu Eight Banners elites, each one is very precious.
As long as there is hope for people, Duduo believes that there is not much problem with his decision.
Just how did this Ming army suddenly appear?
Although the Qing army did not besiege the city again, they closely monitored the movements of the four walls and did not find the Ming army coming out.
Moreover, the Ming army rushed out from the west of the Chinese army's main formation, and the west should be in the direction of Linqing.
Could it be that this Ming army came from Linqing?
The more Duduo thought about it, the more it made sense, and the more he thought about it, the more he became afraid.
If the Ming army from Linqing came for reinforcements, wouldn't it mean that Luck Dehun was defeated.
Apart from this possibility, Duduo really couldn't think of any other reason.
Thinking of the bronze statue at the top of Dezhou City, Duduo took a deep breath.
Could it be that Luckard was really cast into a bronze statue?
The general was captured.
This was no longer a simple defeat, but a disastrous defeat.
What a pig Duduo felt heartbroken.
Those Green Camp troops were nothing more than that, but the Han Eight Banners and the Mongolian Eight Banners were the elites of the Qing army.
Most of them were lost in this way, which had a huge impact on the strength of the Qing army.
Although there was still the God's Blessing Army and the Eight Banners, the Qing army no longer had an absolute numerical advantage over the Ming army at least.
Where to go Originally, Duduo wanted to rest for a while before going back to attack Dezhou.
But now it seems that it’s time to take a long-term approach.

"Send someone to call Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming and ask them to quickly come to see the king."
We can no longer divide our forces at this time.
If they continue to divide their troops, Duduo feels that the Qing army will be defeated one by one.
"Slaves obey orders" Ye Chen responded and left quickly to arrange for the riders to go to Leling and Haifeng.
It now appears that the division of troops was a mistake from the beginning.
It's just that this is Dorgon's arrangement, and everyone firmly believes it.
However, there will be some restrictions on foreign military orders, and now Duduo must do it at his own pace.
Kong Youde was about to start fighting, but he received an order from Duoduo, and he retreated to Texas in a confused manner.
Geng Zhongming's situation was similar.
After receiving the transfer order, he immediately withdrew his troops and rushed to Dezhou.
Although both of them are Han vassal kings, they know very well that they are just two high-level slaves.
How dare they disobey their master's orders?
After the two led their troops to join Duduo, Duduo reorganized the fleeing Mengba Banners.
Only then did they regain their strength and feel confident.
Even so, he did not immediately order an attack on Texas.
Duduo would not attack rashly again before he found out the strength of the Ming army.
God knows if another cavalry force would suddenly appear from somewhere.
This also gave the Ming army a chance to breathe.
They seized the time to strengthen the city gate, fill the gaps in the city wall, and move a large number of stones along the horse path to the city head.
They judged this to be a tug-of-war and it would be difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time.
But not long after, something happened that surprised the Ming soldiers.
The Tatars actually retreated This time it was a real retreat, not a ruse.
The Qing army broke camp and retreated north.
No one can say what the Qing Tatars thought, but one thing is certain.
They won this battle and Shandong held on All the soldiers of the Ming army cried with joy, and some hugged each other and cried loudly.
It turns out that the Tatars are nothing more than this.
As long as they work together, the Tatars will have no chance to take advantage of them.
Of course, there is also the reason why the Holy Emperor went on a personal expedition to boost morale.
If it weren't for the Holy Emperor's personal visit to Shandong, it would be difficult for the Ming army to be so united.
Zhu Cixiang was naturally pleased.
Seeing descriptions of war in reports and personal experience are completely different feelings.
Zhu Cixiang felt very happy to be able to witness the victory of the Japanese army with his own eyes.
There is still hope for Ming Dynasty Duduo's sudden decision to withdraw his troops to Beizhili was certainly not a moment of enthusiasm, but he got the news that Azig did not attack Huguang.
Without Azig's energy to contain the Ming army in Huguang, it would be difficult for Duduo and his 100,000 men to conquer Shandong.
The Qing army's attack on Shandong was actually three-fold.
It will be difficult not to take advantage after the three axes.
The Ming army could mobilize troops from Huguang and Nanzhili to reinforce Shandong, and the continuous influx of new troops could completely change the situation on the battlefield.
Of course, there is another consideration for Duduo's retreat, which is that there is not much food and grass.
Needless to say, all the food and grass under Luck Dehun was burned.
The army under Duduo also consumed a huge amount of food and grass.
If this consumption continues, I'm afraid the soldiers will starve.
Although withdrawing the troops is likely to cause Dorgon to be furious, Duduo doesn't care.
He and Dorgon have different considerations.
Dorgon's ambition is to conquer the world, but Duduo feels that there is nothing wrong with returning to his hometown in Liaodong.
Even if you are forced to withdraw from Shanhaiguan in the end, won’t you still live the same life when you return to Shenyang?

From this point of view, whether we can win Shandong or not is not that important.
Besides, the situation is not that bad.
The Qing Dynasty still owned Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Beizhili and other provinces within the pass.
Although food is a problem, we can still make do with it.
If that doesn't work, you can go to the grasslands to rob Mongolian tribes, or go to North Korea to blackmail you.
In short, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.
Duduo doesn't believe that he has never been successful until he can't win Shandong.
"A sneeze" Wu Erhu sneezed hard.
The weather is really unpredictable.
One moment it is clear and the sky is clear, and the next moment there is lightning and thunder.
After going around the Zhoushan Islands, the ship Wu Erhu was on encountered a severe storm.
The ship almost capsized under the strong winds and heavy rain.
In comparison, catching a cold is nothing.
Wu Erhu walked to the deck and looked into the distance.
Except for the vast ocean, there was still vast ocean, and not even the shadow of land could be seen.
If this continues, it will take at least seven or eight days to reach Fujian.
As a pirate, Wu Erhu was naturally in awe of Zheng Zhilong.
The experience of this pirate leader can be described as legendary.
Every time when others thought he was going to lose his life, he could always miraculously save the day.
After that, Zheng Zhilong was miraculously cleared, accepted the imperial recruitment and became a general of the Ming Dynasty.
His official career was prosperous and he reached the high positions of Marquis of Nan'an and General Soldier of Fujian.
This is simply every pirate's dream.
Of course, it would be completely different to deal with such a pirate.
Fortunately, Wu Erhu did not need to do the work of contacting Zheng Zhilong and recruiting him to surrender.
He only needed to be responsible for sailing the ship to Fujian.
After standing on the deck for a long time, the sea breeze gave him a headache.
Bored, Wu Erhu decided to go back to the cabin to sleep.
Sleeping at sea is the best way to pass the time.
Seven days later, the ship docked at Quanzhou Prefecture.
Fujian is Zheng Zhilong's territory, and Quanzhou Prefecture is Zheng Zhilong's home base.
The entire sea off Quanzhou was sealed airtight by the Zheng family navy, and any enemy ship approaching would be intensively attacked.
Naturally, Wu Erhu had to pay a large amount of money before he was allowed to dock.
Fortunately, he didn't have to pay for the money, otherwise he would really die of pain.
Mr.
Wang's first stop after landing was naturally to the Hong family's old house.
Although Hong Chengchou's father has passed away, his mother is still alive.
One of the purposes of his trip was to help Hong Chengchou bring his mother back to Beijing.
The Hong family's old house was not easy to find.
Mr.
Wang searched for it several times according to the address but could not find it.
Finally, he had to ask local people to find the specific location.
Obviously this old house has been there for some years, and the humid sea breeze has made the wooden doors rotten.
Mr.
Wang stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a long time, an old woman came to open the door.

This old woman is obviously not Hong's mother, because she is only fifty or sixty years old, and Hong's mother is already over seventy.
Mr.
Wang said with a smile: "I want to see Mrs.
Hong."
The old woman was stunned for a moment, and then said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Come with me."
She let Mr.
Wang into the yard, and while leading the way, she sighed: "It's rare that anyone still remembers the old lady.
This family has been in ruins since the fifteenth year of Chongzhen."
Mr.
Wang's face looked a little ugly, but he didn't say much and followed the old woman to a house.
"Old Madam, someone comes to see you."
After a while, the door of the house was pushed open with a creak, and a wrinkled old lady walked out on crutches.
"Who is it?"
Mr.
Wang was overjoyed.
He quickly took a step forward and said, "Mrs.
Hong, I am your son's long-term attendant.
Mr.
Hong specially sent me to take you to Beijing to enjoy your happiness."
Mrs.
Hong was stunned for a moment, and then she yelled: "This unfilial beast, I'm over seventy years old.
He taught me to be a mother-in-law under the banner.
You ask him to come.
If you ask him to come in person, I will beat this unfilial beast to death with my own hands."
They are beasts who will do harm to the people of the world
