Chapter 533: Stubborn Resistance


Wu Liuqi is known as General Dali, and he is also a famous figure in history.During the Battle of Jinhua, this person abandoned Yanzhou, causing the door of Jinhua to be wide open, and Zhu Dadian died in the city.Wu Liuqi ran hundreds of miles, fled from Yanzhou to Fujian, and soon surrendered to the Qing army with Zheng Zhilong, and was appointed as the chief soldier, and speaking of which, Wu Liuqi was also a member of the Zhejiang department before."

Dashuai, I'm familiar with Wu Liuqi!

The lowly is willing to lead the people of the headquarters as the vanguard, and will definitely break through the city of Taizhou. ”Wang Deshun took the initiative to ask.Zhao Ming bowed slightly, looked up at the sky again, and immediately ordered the army to advance at full speed and rush to the city of Taizhou before noon."

Wolf smoke!"

On the official road, the soldiers of Donghai Town were running forward, and the cavalry in front suddenly roared loudly.Zhao Ming couldn't help but restrain his war horse and look around, and sure enough, he saw a billowing smoke rising in the direction of Taizhou in the north.This is most likely the Qing army in Taizhou, who discovered Donghai Town and warned in the direction of Yangzhou through the wolf smoke."

Full speed ahead!"

Zhao Ming's expression was dazed, and he shouted loudly.When Azig learned that Donghai Town was rushing to Taizhou, he must have understood that the Ming army was going to cut off his back road.At that time, the Qing army will either send troops to reinforce Taizhou and intercept Zhao Ming's army, or withdraw from Jiangnan and Huainan in advance, and form a line of defense on the north bank of the Huaijiang River in Xuzhou, starting from Qinling in the west and reaching the mouth of the Huaijiang River in the east, so that the world will reproduce the situation of Song and Jin confrontation.Therefore, Donghai Town must quickly take Taizhou, intersperse with Gaoyou, and cut off the retreat route of the Qing army.The soldiers who were originally trotting forward on the official road, hearing the shouts of the officers, immediately took a big stride, and the 40,000 army was like a winding python, rushing towards Taizhou City, which was more than ten miles away.In less than half an hour, the forward cavalry of Donghai Town came to the city of Taizhou along the salt canal.Before the Qing army went south, the salt industry in Lianghuai was very developed, and Yangzhou gathered many rich salt merchants, and the economic prosperity was no less than that of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.Because of the wealth of the place, the city of Taizhou is stronger than the ordinary county seat, the city is three zhang high, the circumference is thirteen miles, and it has reached the level of the capital city.Zhao Ming was three or four miles away from the city, restrained the war horse, looked at the city from afar, and saw the drawbridge in front of the city gate pulled up, the figures on the city wall, and the soldiers running back and forth, preparing to defend the Ming army."

The view around the Dashuai City is wide, there is no coincidence, either the defenders surrender, or we attack it, I'm afraid there is no other way!"

Senator Gu Yanwu said.Zhao Ming looked at Taizhou, but he was full of pride, "Just a small county in Taizhou can also stop Ben Shuai."

Let people shoot books to surrender first, if the defenders don't surrender, after the city is broken, no one will be left!

”Since Zhao Dashuai's expedition, he has been invincible, and he has just returned from a great victory in the northern expedition, and even Hong Chengchou has become a defeated general, so why not be afraid of a small county in Taizhou, a rebel general Wu Liuqi."

Marshal, then Wu Liuqi fled without a fight, killing the scholar Zhu Dadian, making His Royal Highness the Crown Prince extremely passive, and the soldiers of the Zhejiang army suffered countless losses, he is afraid that he will not surrender."

Wang Deshun reminded.Zhao Ming nodded and said, "Ben Shuai is not counting on Wu Liuqi to surrender, but to tell the defenders in the city that Ben Shuai is here!"

”Wang Deshun reacted and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes!

Even if Wu Liuqi didn't surrender, the Qing soldiers in the city would probably be frightened when they heard the name of the marshal. ”Zhao Ming smiled, he has been in the world for nearly ten years, and he also believes that his name still has influence and deterrence.At that moment, Zhao Ming ordered Wang Deshun to send people to the city to shout, while he commanded the army to camp and gather the generals to discuss the siege strategy.At the head of the city, the Qing soldiers carried bundles of arrows and barrels of gunpowder, and climbed the city wall with their feet.The guard general Wu Liuqi, wearing a set of fine armor, pressed the sword, led a group of subordinates, walked from the city wall, and finally came to the south gate urn city, looking at the Ming army gathering more and more in the distance, with a solemn expression.At this time, the Qing army in the city heard that Donghai Town was attacking, and all the men and horses in the city went to the city to defend.Wu Liuqi held the wall battlements with his hands, and the Qing army around him saw the Ming army swarming from the south, first the banner soldiers who rolled up the dust, and the soldiers carrying muskets behind them, all over the mountains, making the Qing troops in the city frightened."

Zhao Zamao really sent an army to attack Taizhou!"

Wu Liuqi gritted his teeth and said: "I don't know who is the leader of the army, which general is Donghai Town?"

”What is suspicious is that among the cavalry of the Ming army, the near white horse rushed out, carrying Zhao Ming's banner, and rushed to the city of Taizhou.Wu Liuqi, the head of the city, saw nearly 100 cavalry, straight to the city, the cavalry galloped, a military flag hunting in the wind, with a big "Zhao" character written on it."

Bring the clairvoyant mirror!"

Wu Liuqi immediately shouted.The soldiers immediately presented a brass clairvoyant mirror, this kind of clairvoyant mirror, the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not produce it, only Xiyi and Donghai Town had it, and the price was very expensive, but for the convenience of command, the Manchu Qing Dynasty still purchased a batch through various channels.Wu Liuqi hurriedly pulled out the clairvoyant mirror, and soon his eyes looked like they had been stung by a bee, and he suddenly covered the camera with one hand, and the muscles on his face twitched: "It's Zhao Zamao who is here!"

”Many Qing generals heard that Zhao Zamao personally led the army, and they all trembled, Zhao Zamao actually led the army in person, and we are finished.At this time, the cavalry of the Ming army had galloped to the front of the moat, and the musketeers and archers at the head of the city were aimed at the cavalry, ready to shoot at any time.For a while, the Qing army in the city all looked heavy and serious, and the soldiers standing on the city wall were silent, and at this time, the Ming cavalry who ran to the city shouted loudly: "The Qing army in the city listen, on the order of my Zhao Dashuai, let your guard Wu Liuqi speak!"

”Wu Liuqi frowned, although he used to be a member of the Zhejiang department, he had no friendship with Zhao Ming, and he didn't even know him."

I am Wu Liuqi, why did Zhao Dashuai violate my boundary?"

Wu Liuqi leaned out half of his body from the city wall.The cavalry under the city immediately shouted: "General Wu soldiers, the marshal reads that there are many soldiers in the city, it turns out that they are brothers of the Zhejiang army, and they can't bear to be miserable, and their comrades kill each other, I advise you to consider the brothers in the city anyway, and my marshal will not blame you for the previous sins."

My family's handsome prestige is known all over the world, and a small Taizhou can't stop my family's handsome.Now, the handsome man of my family asked me to ask, whether the brothers in the city will open the city and return to obedience, wash away their previous sins, and build a meritorious work together, or will they resist stubbornly, go all the way to the dark, and insist on looking for death!

”The muscles at the corners of Wu Liuqi's mouth twitched, and when he saw the Qing soldiers around him, he unconsciously put down the muskets and bows aimed at the Ming cavalry, and sneered: "Hmph, Zhao Zamao thinks too highly of himself, thinking that just by reporting a name, he can scare Ben Shuai into surrendering, which is really wishful thinking."

Archers, musketeers, shoot them indiscriminately, I want to see how many means Zhao Zamao has. ”After Wu Liuqi finished speaking, seeing that the soldier hesitated, he suddenly roared angrily, "Shoot me!"

”"Bang bang bang" The city was filled with gunsmoke, and the Ming cavalry hurriedly pulled out their horses and galloped away from the city.()
