Chapter 39: The Anti-Qing Soldiers Fight Taihu Lake


After the establishment of the Heaven and Earth Society, the rapid development of personnel, no conditions were required to join the association, as long as it was an individual, politically anti-Qing and Ming restoration.In terms of absorbing personnel, Wu Yilai, the chief helmsman, did not refuse, how many heroes from all sides there were, how much place they could cover, they would give as many officials, and the helmsmen and incense owners would be sealed out as if they didn't want money, so that heaven and earth would quickly establish a network in the south of the Yangtze River.In this regard, Zhao Ming has no opinion, but admires Wu Yi's decision, very Internet thinking, many companies have done this from the beginning, and the world will quickly become the largest and stronger, so this is the only way to do it.As for the hidden dangers of rapid expansion, we will no longer consider the scope for the time being, and we will talk about rolling out the network first.Zhao Ming also released Wang Deshun and others, but it takes connections to pull people in, Zhao Ming is obviously not as good as several other official gentry, and Aokitang's strength is therefore the weakest, but it has also established strongholds in several counties.The rapid expansion of the Heaven and Earth Society made Jiangnan resist the Qing Dynasty and gradually have an organization, but this barbaric expansion also brought huge hidden dangers to the Heaven and Earth Society, of course, this is a later story, not to mention it for the time being.At this time, with the emergence of the Heaven and Earth Society, which brought a lot of trouble to the Qing army, Bolo finally noticed this organization.At the end of July, the weather was still hot, and the Eight Banners had to take refuge in Beijing, but the situation in Jiangnan, coupled with Bolo's recital, finally woke up Dolgon and realized the seriousness of the matter, so he sent two Han banners, Zhenghong and Zhengbai, carrying heavy artillery to the south, to assist Bolo in pacifying the Jiangnan Rebellion.After the Qing army entered the customs, they defeated Li Zicheng, and quickly destroyed the two regimes of Hongguang and Luwang Jianguo, so that Dolgon was complacent, and did not put the Han people in his eyes, thinking that the general trend was determined and he could come nonsense.Therefore, after the shaving order provoked a rebellion from all over the world, he did not care at first, and even felt that this was an opportunity to eradicate the unyielding Han people, thinking that the situation was still under control.It was not until the rebels of the world swarmed up, the southern Longwu Emperor ascended the throne, Hunan, Gannan, Fujian, Liangguang, and Guizhou recognized Longwu as the Son of Heaven, and the envoys sent by the Qing court to surrender returned that he realized the seriousness of the situation.After watching Bolo's recital, Dolgon realized that the rebel army in Jiangnan had reached the point of getting out of control, so he immediately decided to deal with the remnant forces and the loyal rebel army with all his might.At this time, Kong Youde and Shen Zhixiang received an order, and immediately took 14,000 Han banner troops, plus 6,000 accompanying troops, a total of 20,000 people, and marched south along the Grand Canal.The Jiangnan Righteous Army is just a rabble, and with this elite banner soldier sitting in Jiangnan, it will be able to quell the Jiangnan rebellion.When the banner soldiers went south, Bellenikan also went to the boundary of Suzhou Prefecture and came to preside over the encirclement and suppression of the Taihu Rebel Army.The Qing army has a lot of eyeliner in Jiangnan, mainly those traitors who have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and their dependents and friends, to a certain extent, they want to destroy the righteous army more than the Qing army.At this time, Nikan had already received definite news that the Heaven and Earth Society, which had recently emerged, had its main altar located on Sanshan Island in Taihu Lake.The purpose of this Tiandi Association is to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and recently it has also widely published heroic posts to convene Jiangnan rebels and bandits to discuss the plan to resist the Qing Dynasty, which is extremely harmful.This group of rebels actually dared to hold a meeting under the noses of the Qing soldiers, and they simply regarded the Qing Dynasty as nothing, which made Bolo angry, and Nikan's main task was to exterminate the Heaven and Earth Society.Nikan rode on a sturdy war horse, three hundred blue-armored Han banner soldiers, more than a dozen white-armored real Manchurians, with war knives at their waists, bows and arrows hanging from their saddles, and riding spears in their hands, marching in the fields of Wujiang County, neatly lined up, and the green battalion soldiers walking in front of the team were in a little worse formation, sparse and sparse like sheep.Nikan rode slowly, thinking in his heart, "Around Taihu Lake, there are three green battalions of Li Chengdong, Wu Zhaosheng, and Tu Guobao, with nearly 30,000 people.Although these horses cannot be compared with the banner soldiers, they are much stronger than the rebels, and 10,000 to 100,000 is not a problem.Besides, I also brought Liu Zeqing's 10,000 green battalions and 5,000 sailors this time, which will definitely be able to exterminate the Taihu Lake bandits. ”Compared with the Qing soldiers, the combat power of the righteous army is indeed weak, they are not a regular army after all, let alone fighting tens of thousands of Qing troops, I am afraid that Li Chengdong and his men can destroy them in a head-to-head confrontation."

Hmph~ The reason why the water bandits are rampant is entirely because the green camp is unwilling to contribute."

Nikan sneered, and said in his heart: "When Ben Beile arrives in Wujiang, urge those barbarians to fight, and they will definitely fight the thieves!"

”Nikan was walking, and in the woods on both sides of the road, two men showed their heads, and one of them said with a solemn expression: "There are so many Qing soldiers here, they must be dealing with us!"

”Another man, squinting at the ranks of the Qing army, said in a deep voice: "You continue to monitor, I will report to the incense master." ”After speaking, the man flashed, left the woods, took a path to a river, steered a small boat, and entered Taihu Lake.The man who stayed behind continued to hide in the woods, his eyes fixed on more than 10,000 Qing soldiers, and entered Wujiang County.After Nikan arrived in Wujiang County, he did not rest, and he directly summoned many green battalion generals to discuss the matter.In the yamen of Wujiang County, Nikan sat in the middle hall, his cold eyes swept over everyone, and Li Chengdong and the others all bowed their heads and hands, not daring to speak.The lobby was unusually quiet and the atmosphere was depressing, and the other green battalion generals were sweating on their foreheads, and their hearts were under great pressure.At this time, Nikan finally broke the silence, "Benbel asks you, do you know the nest of Taihu water thieves?"

”Tu Guobao felt that he had seized an opportunity to perform, and hurriedly saluted and said, "Lord Belle, the minions have already discovered that the water bandits are on Sanshan Island!"

”Nikan was suddenly furious, and suddenly smashed the cup in his hand on the ground, tea and debris splashed, and he said with a hideous face: "Since you know, why don't you kill it?"

Have you taken the Qing Dynasty into account?

”Tu Guobao was startled, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, and everyone was as quiet as a cicada, kneeling on the ground one after another, "Slaves don't dare!"

”"The matter of the Taihu Lake bandits has made the imperial court angry, you can't even exterminate a group of chaotic people, what does the Qing Dynasty want you to do?"

Nikan looked at them, and slowed down his tone for a while, "This time Ben Baylor came over, just to urge you to exterminate the water bandits, and at the same time to give you one last chance, I hope you can cherish it~" Li Chengdong and the others hurriedly kowtowed and promised, "Lord Belle don't worry, we will definitely exterminate the water bandits!"

”On Taihu Lake, the water village of Sanshan Island of the Righteous Army, in the Juyi Hall.Wu Yi convened many heroes to discuss the matter, and he said with a calm face: "Carefully report, there is another Qing soldier, entering Wujiang County, and the leader seems to be Beylenikan of Jiannu, he came to Wujiang, and the target must be us."

What do you think we can do?

”Everyone was talking, and Zhao Ming hugged his fists indifferently, "Chief helmsman, no matter how many Qing soldiers come, it's useless, the key depends on how many ships they have, if not, I thought we could make an ambush and let the Qing soldiers know how powerful we are!"
