Chapter 88: Fuyang Blocks


On the north bank of the Qiantang River, the Qing army camp spreads, and the tomb-like military camp is arranged along the river.In a large tent in the middle of the barracks, the senior generals of the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion gathered together to discuss the military situation.At this time, the two generals of the green battalion knelt in the center of the big tent and kowtowed to plead guilty, "Lord Yu, two slaves, led 3,000 soldiers and horses to cross, and when they met Wang Zhiren's warship, the raft was knocked over by his warship, and the crossing of the river failed. ”Duoduo ordered the army to collect boats, make rafts, and then force the Qiantang River, but almost all the ships in Jiangbei were taken away by the Ming army, and the Qing army only used rafts to cross the river, and the raft transportation capacity was limited, once it met the Ming army's military ships, it was easy to be knocked over.Duoduo frowned slightly, "The puppet king of Lu has already learned about Li Shutai and outflanking Shaoxing.Today, the barbarians still hold on to the river defenses, and must have sent troops and horses to deal with Li Shutai.Therefore, this king must cross the river as soon as possible and fight the barbarians with Li Shutai.What should you be guilty of losing your soldiers and losing your military prestige?

”Liang Huafeng and Gao Jinku, the two generals, hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Prince Yu spares his life, the slave knows his guilt, please give the slave another chance to make meritorious contributions!"

”At this time, Zhang Cunren spoke, "Lord Wang, that Wang Zhiren was originally the chief soldier of Dinghai and mastered the first division of the Zhejiang Navy.The Qiantang River is wide, no less than the Yangtze River, which is where it comes in, and the two generals only prepared some rafts to force the Qiantang River to cross, which is indeed difficult to succeed!

”Hearing this, Duoduo's expression softened a little, waved his hand, and motioned for the two of them to get up, "Today, this king will let you two go for the time being!"

”"Minion, thank you for your kindness!"

The two generals hurriedly saluted.Duoduo was silent for a while, and asked: "Li led Tai's army to go deep alone, if there is no cooperation of this king, the situation will inevitably be dangerous, Governor Zhang thinks how this king should cross the Qiantang River!"

”Zhang Cunren said: "Nowadays, there are only two strategies.The first is to transfer warships, continue to make rafts, and then launch a forced crossing when they are ready.There are less than 30,000 Zhejiang soldiers who can fight, as long as the prince is fully prepared, it is not difficult to cross the river!

”Zhang Cunren paused as he spoke, "It's just that this strategy needs to be transferred, and it will take more than ten days to prepare."

Another strategy is for the cavalry to detour the Fuchun River upstream, cross the river from Fuyang, and outflank the south bank of Qiantang in a roundabout way!

”Duoduo walked a few steps in the big tent with his hands in his hand, stood in front of the map, stared for a moment, and bowed his head slightly, "Hangzhou to Fuyang, the cavalry can reach it in one day, you can choose the second strategy!"

”As he was talking, a rush of footsteps gradually approached, and then, the curtain was picked up by a person, and a person rushed in, causing everyone in the tent to turn their heads to look, only to see a soldier of the Han army with a blue flag, who fell to the ground as soon as he came in.Duoduo and the others were startled, and a Qing general close to the tent curtain hurriedly stepped forward to support the Eight Banners soldiers, and exclaimed, "What's the matter?

”There were a few arrows stuck behind the Eight Banners, and there were wounds caused by muskets on his body, and the black coagulated blood made his clothes and armor change color, he pointed to the west, his face was pale, and he was panting like a cow: "Fu~Fuyang~ was taken back by the barbarians~" Duoduo walked over quickly and asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"

”"After Maile Ezhen defeated Fuyang, he led the main force to cross the Fuchun River, leaving the minions to guard the ferries on both sides of Fuyang, and after he didn't want Ezhen to leave, the barbarian soldiers and horses who had been nearly 10,000 people suddenly killed from the north, and the minions waited for a thousand brothers, guarding both sides of the strait, and were caught off guard and lost Fuyang~" Zhang Cunren said: "Lord, it should be Zhang Mingzhen, the barbarian of the West Road who escaped, and the rebel general Wu Zhaosheng!"

”As soon as Duoduo heard this, he understood that the Ming army was closing the gap and cutting off the connection between Li Shutai and the main force of the Qing army.Duoduo's guess was right, the Ming army really wanted to use Jiang Defense to block his main force and eat Li Shuitai, who was alone in the depths.After thinking about it, the prince of Manchuria, who had made great achievements, couldn't help but show a sneer on his face, and gritted his teeth and said: "The barbarians are rampant, and they don't take this king in their eyes, thinking that some remnants of the defeated army can prevent this king from crossing the river?"

The Yangtze River moat, this king has passed, not to mention a small Qiantang River. ”After saying that, Duoduo waved his hand suddenly and shouted: "Zhang Cunren, you are responsible for mobilizing ships, rushing to make rafts, restraining Wang Zhiren here, and looking for opportunities to cross the river."

Eight Banner Warriors, follow this king to kill Ben Fuyang immediately!

”As soon as the order was given, the generals of the Qing army in the tent screamed, and they all clenched their fists to receive their lives.The southern barbarians also turned against the sky, seeing the Qing soldiers fleeing without looking at the wind, and wanting to eat nearly 10,000 Qing troops in one bite, they simply didn't know whether they were alive or dead.In the camp, the real Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry first completed the assembly, and then directly hit the horses out of the camp, and the ten thousand horsemen swept the land and rolled to the west.The elite Han army banner, carrying firearms, followed closely behind with baggage, killing Ben Fuyang.…… On Fuyang City, the volunteer soldiers were busy preparing to roll logs and stones, carry arrows, and prepare for defense.On the tower of the city gate, Ma Shiying held the wall with his hand, looking at the direction of Jinling, and the people were much older.He originally thought that he would be able to recover Hangcheng this time and then enter Jinling, but he didn't expect that his dream would be shattered so soon.At this time, he already knew that in the crisis in eastern Zhejiang, the Qing general Li led Tai to lead nearly 10,000 Qing troops and broke into Shaoxing, and the Duoduo army and Chen soldiers in the north of the Qiantang River, once these two Qing armies formed a cooperation, the entire river defense would collapse, and eastern Zhejiang would fall quickly.At this time, the only chance for eastern Zhejiang is to prevent Li Shutai from joining forces with Duoduo Li Yingwai, annihilate this Qing army, and then return to the division to consolidate the defense of the river, and it is still possible to protect eastern Zhejiang.But can Duoduo watch the Ming army encircle and annihilate Li Shutai?

This was obviously impossible, so the Ming army had to keep Duoduo at bay on the north shore."

Ma Gebu, Fuyang will please!"

At this time, Zhang Mingzhen next to him solemnly saluted Ma Shiying.Originally, Zhang Mingzhen didn't like Ma Shiying, but Ma Shiying decided to defend Fuyang City on the north bank and let Zhang Mingzhen and Wu Zhaosheng deploy defense on the south bank, but Zhang Mingzhen's heart was shaken.The Fuchun River is very long, and in order to prevent the Qing army from attacking Fuyang and directly crossing the river around the city, the Ming army must be deployed on the south bank.Wu Zhaosheng didn't want to defend Fuyang, Zhang Mingzhen was the main general, and he couldn't defend Fuyang, so Ma Shiying volunteered to take over the errand.Ma Shiying smiled: "Do your best for the world, my wish!"

Please Zhang Dashuai, be sure to guard the south bank and not let the Qing soldiers cross the river!

”At this time, Ma Shiao, who was dressed in armor, hurriedly waited before boarding the city, "Cabinet Department, the Qing soldiers are here!"

”Ma Shiying and Zhang Mingzhen's faces changed, and when they saw Ma Shiao coming up, they couldn't take a breath and said urgently."

The scouts have found out, the Qing army and the horse army will go first, and the main force will follow up, and kill Ben Fuyang in a big way!"

Ma Shiying's heart was shocked, but his face was not shocked, and he said to Zhang Mingzhen: "Zhang Dashuai doesn't have to worry about Fuyang, please Zhang Dashuai quickly cross the river to arm!"

”Zhang Mingzhen didn't say anything, solemnly hugged his fists, everything was in this salute, and then turned around and left the city.As soon as Zhang Mingzhen left, Ma Shiao stepped forward, looked at Ma Shiying's back, and sighed: "Why are you suffering?"

”Ma Shiying turned his back to him and looked into the distance, "Do you know why my Ming Dynasty has been defeated repeatedly?"

It's because the generals of Wenchen just want to eat meat, and they don't want to gnaw bones and fight tough battles!

Everyone has merit and reaps, and if they have responsibility, they hide.In this way, how can you not be defeated?

”Ma Shiao understood what Ma Shiying meant, and was silent, Ma Shiying waved his hand, "Go and arm!"

”…… 21st, Jinniuling.The earth-shattering shouts of killing and the rumbling of cannons began to sound at dawn.In the darkness of the night, whizz rockets cut through the sky and rained down on the hillside like a rain of fire, illuminating the sky.The Ming artillery roared, the muzzles of the guns were in the dark, flashing with fire, and the shells smashed into the hills, splashing the fluffy soil.More than 3,000 remnants of the Eight Banners built simple fortifications overnight to resist the attacks of the Ming army and fight the trapped beasts.The burning man on the mountain, covered in fire, let out a terrible howl, and rolled down the hill like a fireball, and the scene was tragic.The Qing army was hit by the shelling, and the body was smashed by shells......
