After Shannan City was slaughtered, all the counties under the jurisdiction of Shannan Prefecture were shocked by the atrocities of the Ming army. The local officials sent troops to restrain the territory, and were not allowed to kill the Han people. At the same time, gentry merchants spent a lot of money to invite the Han people to come forward to the Ming army to make peace. The state ruled that the redemption fee was exchanged for the tranquility of the county. In this regard, the Ming army gladly accepted that, in addition to money and food, the counties in Annan should provide 500 to 1,000 young and strong laborers for Ming's employment.

The employment period is three years. At that time, the wages will be settled and the people will return to their hometowns. Daming guarantees the personal safety of the employed Annan workers. At the same time, the Ming army also put forward conditions. In view of the large-scale massacre of innocent Han people in Annan before the battle, in order to prevent this from happening again, a security team should be established in the local Han people's settlement, and the young Han people should be selected and given weapons to protect themselves. The Han security team should be responsible for the supply of money and food, and the Annan area should be responsible for it as a punishment.

If it is just to give money and food, that's all, the Ming army still needs people, and even more excessively, it needs to arm the Han people.

The Annan officials in the counties in Shannan were not fools, of course they knew that the Ming army had no good intentions. Therefore, out of the 9 counties that sent people to negotiate, only 3 agreed to the demands of the Ming army with pinching their noses, and the rest were either angry or silent. As a result, in just a few days, the Ming army broke through the two cities, and was slaughtered just like Shannan Prefecture. As a result, the local officials in Annan, who had been waiting for the central reinforcements to fail, and who were unable to defend their homes and the country, once again sent people to bring a large amount of wine and food to the Ming army station to reward the army, and then signed a treaty with each other. These treaties were collectively referred to by the Ming army as “Di Zi”, which means that they were not signed by the Zheng’s Central Committee and had no legal rationality. However, the Ming Dynasty paid attention to etiquette, and in order to avoid further casualties between the military and civilians of the two countries, the Annan places that signed the Di Zi contract were treated equally.

With the "cooperation" of local officials in Annan from all counties in Shannan, the large-scale resistance of the people of Annan to the invading army was suppressed. Countless young and strong men were tied with ropes by Annan officers and soldiers and sent to the Ming army camp under the weeping of their families. [Love ↑ Go △ Xiao ↓ Say △ Net WwW.AiQu] Because of the support of the Ming army, the Han people in Shannan also set up security teams. human resistance.

When the territory of Shannan was not completely pacified, Niu Gensheng led his troops to attack Qinghua. As the tide of massacre of Han in Hejing in the south became more and more intense, it had already spread to the houses in the north. In order to protect themselves, the Han people of Annan organized to resist the government of Annan and invited the Ming army to help. In Hejing alone, more than 20,000 Han people gathered to form an association, begging the Ming army to provide ordnance help. In Qinghua Prefecture, thousands of Han Chinese Pang Bingdra captured the county seat and responded to the Ming army.

Regarding the resistance of the Han people in various places, Zhao Ziqiang passed down an order that all ministries must support and assist unconditionally. The army swept and wiped out the Annan rebel groups in the occupied area. For Annan places that are willing to spend money to eliminate disasters, they will follow the example of Shannan.

On the fourth day of the seventh lunar month, the twelfth town captured Qinghua Pinghu City and launched the Qinghua Battle. Annan Zheng's Qinghua garrison Li Huacheng died in battle. Under the coercion of the Ming army massacred the city, Qinghua commander Zheng De Kaicheng surrendered. So far, the capitals of Shannan and Qinghua towns were occupied by the Ming army. cut off. After that, the navy Zheng Chengkui's department entered the Jinluo River again, with 43 warships, 3,000 sailors, 600 army troops, and more than 4,000 Annan Han rebels going up the river to commit crimes, preparing to cut off the Mekong River, the main artery of Annan's inland transportation. On July 9, the Ming army launched the Battle of Deqing, but was stubbornly resisted by the Annan Zheng army, killed and wounded 169 people and captured Deqing.

After receiving reinforcements of 1,000 sailors from Haiyang Water Village and 600 troops urgently transferred from Eleventh Town, Zhou Sheng's Department of the North Road began to march towards Quang Ninh. The Ming army dismantled a large number of naval guns and brought them to the shore. With powerful firepower, they broke through the defense line of the Guangning and Zheng army. The morale of the army soared, and the arrogance was very arrogant. "

Although the Han people in Quang Ninh were not slaughtered by the Zheng army, they also followed the example of the south, or organized armed forces to resist the Annan government, or defected to the Ming army, or acted as guides, or provided money and food.

Li Ziyuan, the garrison officer of Zheng's Guangning, was born in the civil service. He was afraid after seeing the Ming army attacking again, and he broke through the defense line of the Zheng army at once. People went to Beijing and tried to be transferred from Quang Ninh. Li Wenyuan was incompetent. With the support of his subordinates, the general Min Wenlian accepted the command of Guangning troops and horses, and deployed east and west defense lines against the route of the Ming army.

Anzi Mountain is located 60 miles south of the city of Guangning, with an altitude of 852 meters. Due to its dangerous terrain, it has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. After the Ming army broke through the defense line of the Zheng army, the commander Zhou Sheng arrogantly attacked Quang Ninh in two directions. The east road leads directly to Guangning, while the west road detours towards Xian'an and Haitun. On the 28th, the Ming army captured Xian'an, and Anzishan became the last barrier to guard Guangning.

In order to prevent the Ming army from advancing to Guangning, Min Wenlian personally led his troops to guard Anzi Mountain. He convened a military meeting and asked all Zheng Jun northern troops to focus on attacking the Ming army's transportation line from Xian'an to Anzishan. However, due to the repeated defeats on the Eastern Route, many generals of the Zheng Army had a fear of war. Only Min Wenlian was the only one who really fought the battle, and the actual troops he could command were less than 5,000, and among them, they had to divide their troops to defend the Eastern Route.

On July 2, the Ming army took the lead in attacking Chengxianguan in the south of Anzi Mountain. Zheng general Wu Yinglin fought to the death with less than 1,000 people, and repelled the Ming army twice. However, under the cover of the Ministry of Fire, the attacking Ming army still broke through the defense line of the Zheng army. After the Ming army captured Chengxianguan, they rested for a while, and then began to attack Anzishan, but Min Wenlian's defenders in Anzishan were less than 2,000.

On the 5th, 800 sailors, 500 army troops and 2,000 Annan Han soldiers of the Ming army drove more than 700 Annan descendants to launch a tentative attack on Anzishan under the leadership of the naval commander Wang Guoming. In order to confuse the Ming army, Min Wenlian skillfully deployed thousands of flags in the mountains and forests, arranged many war drums and horns, and mobilized nearby people to come to help the battle. When the local people heard the news, they signed up enthusiastically, and thousands of people gathered in an instant.

After the arrogant Ming army launched the charge, it was violently attacked by the artillery of the Zheng army, which made the Ming army unable to advance and suffered heavy casualties. Afterwards, the Ming army concentrated its forces again in an attempt to seize the artillery position of the Zheng army, but an open space in front of the position made the Ming army nowhere to hide, and the Ming army suffered heavy casualties again under the strong firepower of the Zheng army. At this time, the war drums and horns were roaring in the surrounding, and the flags were flying in the mountains and forests, and there were crowds of people. Wang Guoming, the commander of the Ming army, found that the momentum was not good, so he had to lead his team to flee down the mountain.

Seeing the situation, Min Wenlian commanded the troops to pursue the victory, and the people nearby also flocked to the Ming army to help. The Ming army fled back to Chengxianguan in embarrassment. Wang Guoming asked the commander Zhou Sheng to send a large force for reinforcements, but at this time the main force of the Ming army stationed in Xian'an City was attacked by Annan's bravery~www.NovelMTL.com~ The transportation line was cut off. Unarmed. Wang Guoming had to lead his troops to retreat at Chengxianguan and hold a stalemate with the Zheng army.

The morale-boosted Min Wenlian decided to retake Chengxianguan. On the evening of the 7th, it rained heavily in the Anzi Mountains. The Ming army believed that the Zheng army would not launch an attack in this weather. However, Min Wenlian personally led more than 300 cavalry and more than 100 elephant soldiers to raid the Ming army camp, which caught the unsuspecting Ming army by surprise. When Min Wenlian rushed into the command tent of the Ming army, the officers were shocked when they saw Zheng Jun who had suddenly entered. Min Wenlian rode on a horse and took advantage of the situation to cut down a Ming army officer, who was the Ming army officer. An Zishan commanded Wang Guoming. The main general was killed in battle, and the remaining Ming army was unsupported and fled. Subsequently, Min Wenlian led his troops to pursue and attacked the Ming army in Dejiahe, killing hundreds of Ming army and completely regaining Chengxianguan. This is the first time that Zheng Jun has regained lost ground since the Ming-Vietnamese war.

Since then, relying on the favorable terrain, Min Wenlian kept sending troops to fight with the Ming army guerrillas while holding the position, and finally forced all the Ming army to return to Xian'an City. Since then, until the end of the war, the Ming army on the northern front has never been able to cross An Zishan.

Min Wenlian successfully commanded the Battle of Anzishan when the Zheng army was defeated all the way and the army was disillusioned, effectively curbing the attack of the Ming army and attacking its arrogance. Although this battle failed to reverse the overall battle situation, it was a miracle when the Zheng forces on the southern coast were on the verge of collapse. (To be continued.)
