Zhao Ming fought fiercely with Kong Youde in Lime Mountain, and the rebel armies in the south of the Yangtze River took action in order to cooperate with Zhao Ming and share the pressure on the Ming army in Zhejiang.Wu Yi was in Taihu Lake, so he ordered the Heaven and Earth Society to collect news and send the Taihu Righteous Army to attack the Qing army everywhere, and the land south of the Yangtze River was very lively.In order to contain the Qing army from attacking Zhejiang, the best way is naturally to attack the grain routes of the Qing army.After the Ming army rushed into the Yangtze River, the Qing army's transportation was blocked, and the grain from Huguang, Jiangxi, and Lianghuai could not be transported to Zhejiang through the Grand Canal.The Qing army transferred grain from the counties of Nanzhili, and the grain team and grain ships became the main targets of the Tiandihui and the rebel army.After Hu Weizong received Zhao Ming's instructions, he personally selected some of the best players of the Tiandihui and formed a special team, which not only assassinated the Qing court dog officials, collected intelligence, and sometimes organized men and horses to rob the Qing soldiers and military rations.In the southeast of Taihu Lake, in a forest in Jiaxing County, Yu Taichu, the helmsman of the Jiaxing branch of the Heaven and Earth Society, drew on the ground with a tree branch: "Lord Xiang, I have inquired clearly, the dog official in Jiaxing has levied a batch of grain, and the ship is parked in Fengjiabang, I am going to take the brothers to take the opportunity to jump up at night, unload the grain secretly, and then arrange for the hundred and ten people to carry it away, what do you think?"
”Hu Weizong said with a smile: "The Qing army in Jiaxing County is afraid to come out in the city, Feng Jiabang is more than ten miles away from the county seat, you have this bit of courage!"
”Yu Taichu turned out to be a coolie at the dock, an ordinary family who earned hard money, and a few men under his command followed, taking some work on the dock, and he had never done any big business.When Mrs.
Yu first heard this, she became angry and ashamed, and thought about breaking the branches, "Then don't do anything, burn the boat, rob the grain, kill all the dogs who escorted the boat, and then mobilize the nearby people to move all the grain!"
”When Hu Weizong heard this, he nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "That's it." ”Jiaxing County is close to the area of activity of the rebels, but it is the territory of the Qing army, and the big drum rebels dare not come, Hu Weizong only brought more than ten brothers, but they are all very strong.That night, on the edge of the Grand Canal near Fengjiabang, more than a dozen men in black suits were lying in the grass on the bank, their eyes fixed on the grain ships on the river.The torch was lit on the ship, and several Qing soldiers stood listlessly on the edge of the ship's strings, angry.They are responsible for the Qing army in charge of protecting the grain, Jiaxing is an area controlled by the Qing army, not as noisy as the Yangtze River, at present it is quite safe, the Qing army is not vigilant, they are mainly to prevent thieves from picking up grain.Under the moonlight, the torch on the ship flickered, and there was silence all around, Hu Weizong and others quietly waded into the water, swam to the side of the boat, and after observing for a while, they shouted in a low voice, "Up!"
”The heroes of the Heaven and Earth Society quietly got on the boat, and with a quick twist of the Qing army's head from behind, they made a crisp sound, and gently put the corpse of the Qing army on the boat.The heroes jumped on the boat, then slashed and slashed, Hu Weizong flew with two knives, put down the Qing soldiers one by one, and the Qing soldiers jumped into the water again and again to escape.At this time, Yu Taichu waved the torch and gave a signal, and a black and oppressive figure immediately appeared on the west bank of the canal, and hundreds of people, pushing wheelbarrows and carrying flat baskets, came to the river.The people pulled the boat to the shore and took the boat ladder, and the efforts of thousands of people to move were undoubted, and the food and materials on the ship were quickly removed and divided.After the grain was moved, Hu Weizong immediately set fire to the grain ship of the Qing army, the fire attracted the attention of the Jiaxing garrison, nearly a thousand Qing soldiers went out of the city overnight, and immediately were ambushed, stepped on several traps, hit more than 10 arrows, killed and injured more than 30 people, and came to Fengjiabang all the way in fear.At this time, Hu Weizong had already evacuated, and the Qing army saw the fire on the river, reflecting the face of the Qing general.Looking at the footprints and rut marks on the ground, you know that there must be people to help, otherwise the food would not have been moved so quickly.The Qing generals led by him were furious and swept several surrounding villages overnight, but whenever they found food and supplies, they immediately killed the whole village!
Heaven and earth would have already beckoned, and asked the nearby people, after taking the food, to hide first, but there were still some stubborn people, as well as some people who felt that they didn't help, so they were fine, thinking that the Qing soldiers would not kill indiscriminately, but they were killed by the angry Qing soldiers, and the village was on fire, and the cry shook the sky.At this time, Hu Weizong and the others did not bring food, and directly withdrew to a forest more than ten miles away, everyone sat on the ground, while gnawing on dry food, while resting, a man from the Heaven and Earth Society crawled over, "Lord Xiang, there are enemy troops!"
”Hu Weizong was shocked when he heard this, everyone stood up in fright, and Yu Taichu exclaimed: "Qinggou actually caught up!"
”"The helmsman, it doesn't seem to be chasing us, it seems that the Qinggou is passing by!"
The man panicked."
How many people have passed the army?"
Hu Weizong frowned.The man said: "I can't see it clearly at night, but the line is very long, and I am afraid that there are 10,000 people." ”There were 10,000 people, and everyone was amazed and talked about it.Hu Weizong heard the words, waved his hand, everyone quieted down, and they all held their breath, and after a moment, Hu Weizong said in a deep voice, "Let's go, take a look." ”After a short time, everyone came to a forest, and saw a mighty army on the official road outside, slowly moving.This is the Qing army that rushed back from eastern Zhejiang, they went out day and night, secretly marched, and on the orders of Duoduo, advanced to Songjiang Mansion, trying to prevent Zhao Ming from escaping, and wanted to annihilate Zhao Ming in the Yangtze River.In the woods, Hu Weizong frowned and watched the Qing army march, and muttered: "Where did the Qing army come from, what are they doing sneakily in Songjiang Mansion?"
”Hu Weizong thought for a while, and suddenly whispered: "Taichu, you continue to monitor, I want to go to Nanjing!"
”Everyone feels that the situation is special, there are not so many Qing troops in Jiaxing, this Qing army came from the south, isn't it the main force of the Qing army to come back?
Duoduo likes to surprise and attack unprepared, and likes to surprise his opponent by surprise.If Duoduo's main force returned to Jiangnan, and the Ming army was not prepared, it might suffer a major defeat.Yu Taichu nodded hurriedly, "Lord Xiang be careful!"
”Hu Weizong bowed slightly, patted Yu Taichu's shoulder, and then turned around and headed northwest.Outside the inner city of Nanjing, the battle on the lime mountain had stopped, and the fierce fighting had stopped for many days, and both sides suffered heavy losses, and the Qing army seemed to be tired and finally stopped attacking.At this time, the Ming army's equipment had been almost digested, and Zhao Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly commanded his subordinates to strengthen the defense.After many days of fighting, Zhao Ming also had some understanding of how to fight thousands of men and horses and how to deploy defenses, and gradually mastered how to lead troops to fight.At this time, Zhao Ming was standing on a mountain ridge, and Li Yuanyin suddenly appeared on the mountainside and shouted loudly: "General Zhao, Lord Hu Xiang has arrived, saying that there is an urgent military intelligence report." ”Zhao Ming was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Where is the person?"
