The palace attack and trouble case dealt a heavy blow to the old bureaucratic gentry forces in Guangdong Yongli, and temporarily calmed the political situation in Guangdong.

On the 6th, the cabinet invited His Royal Highness to supervise the country, and the posthumous title of Emperor Shaowu was: Emperor Wenzong Zhentian Yingdao Zhao Chongde Yining Wenhong Wu Daren Min Xiaojie Emperor. Supervising Guoyun, considering the financial difficulties of the country, he did not build the emperor's mausoleum, but only moved Emperor Shaowu's spiritual seat from the Tang Guozong Temple to the Taimiao Temple, and worshipped with Emperor Longwu.

After Emperor Shaowu committed suicide by hanging himself, Li Chengdong ordered his corpse to be buried in the wooden shell hill of Yuexiu Mountain together with the other Ming Dynasty vassal kings and ministers who died together.

On the 8th, Zhou Shixiang led hundreds of officials to Mukegang to pay homage to Emperor Shaowu, and Hong Shiming, the minister of ritual, wrote the sacrificial text. After the ritual system was completed, Zhou Shixiang performed the ritual of entering the house again as the son-in-law of the emperor.

After returning to the city from Yuexiu Mountain, Leizhou sent an urgent report. It was Zhao Ziqiang who sent a fast boat to report the news, saying that Annan had returned the eldest princess and the courtiers of Yongli. Back to Guangdong. The messenger also brought a secret letter from Xu Yingyuan, which stated conclusively that the Son of Heaven had indeed enshrined Zhou Shixiang as the King of Qi, and the imperial decree was at the princess' place. In this case, Fu Gang, a senior scholar of the Yongli Cabinet, Gong Yi, Minister of Household, Sun Shun, Minister of War, Cheng Yuan, Minister of Rites, Wanniance, Minister of Household, Zheng Fengyuan, Minister of Rites, Liu Qin, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Guangping Bo. Chen Jian, Shang Baojian, **** Ma and others can testify.

Looking at the long list of Yongli courtiers on the list that could prove that this matter is true, Zhou Shixiang was overjoyed, no doubt that he had it, he quickly ordered to go down, and ordered the Leizhou side to make preparations to pick up the ship. Once the princess arrived, he would immediately **** him to Guangzhou. In order to prevent mistakes, Zhou Shixiang ordered Zhang An to personally take people to Leizhou to ensure the safety of the princess and King Qi.

After Song Xianggong and others heard that the canonization of King Qi was true, they were all excited. Song Xianggong said that he might as well wait for the princess and the king of Qi to book the book to Guangzhou. The cabinet and the Ministry of Rites will hold a ceremony for the king of Jin and Qi before the northern expedition. The soldiers of the three armies will surely be encouraged.

To lead the Northern Expedition as a prince and to lead the Northern Expedition as the king of Qi, the status, momentum and political influence of the two are worlds apart. However, the Ministry of Military Intelligence received urgent military information from Jiangnan, saying that Zheng Jun had already entered the river and had won great victories in Guazhou and Zhenjiang. This made Zhou Shixiang frown, and he felt that he must immediately expedition to the north, otherwise there would be changes.

......

Zheng Jun entered the Yangtze River on June 17 and Jiangyin on the 20th, and the officials of the Qing Dynasty civil and military guarded the city. Zheng Chenggong accepted the advice of the generals, and led his division to the west because the county was small and did not attack. On the 22nd, they attacked Guazhou, slashed the Qing guerrilla attack Zuo Yunlong, destroyed thousands of enemy troops and horses, cut off the "Rolling River Dragon" that was formed by the Qing side's chain of chains and ships, and burned down three Qing army floating camps on the river. He won dozens of cannons from Tan Jiazhou, and all the Jiang defense fortifications that the Qing side had painstakingly managed to disintegrate. [Love ↑ go △ small ↓ say △ network WwW.AiQu]

On the same day, Zheng Jun conquered Guazhou, and the governor of Qing Caojiang, Zhu Yizhu, surrendered. Jiang Guozhu, the governor of Jiangning in Qing Dynasty, believed that Zheng Chenggong must take Zhenjiang, so Feishu asked Ma Fengzhi, the Admiral of Su Song, and Admiral Jiangnan, to send troops to help. After Guan Xiaozhong received the news, he led more than 4,000 Nanjing soldiers and more than 3,000 green battalions to Zhenjiang. Before setting off, the Manchu generals underestimated the enemy, believing that the Zheng army was vulnerable.

When Guan Xiaozhong led the army to Zhenjiang, Ma Fengzhi, the admiral of Su Songchang Township, persuaded him to hold back because of Qian Qianyi's persuasion. On the 24th, Zheng Chenggong led Chen Yonghua and others to join the army. They climbed to the top of Qili Port in Zhenjiang and looked far away. They saw the Qing army stationed under the Silver Mountain, with their camps connected, the war horses neighing, and there were no less than 10,000 people.

Zheng Chenggong said solemnly to Chen Yonghua and others: "The Tartars are riding very fast. I wonder if there are any reinforcements? We must fight quickly!"

"Yinshan is the gate of Jingkou, five miles away from the city gate. If the Tartar cavalry goes up the mountain first and rushes down from a high place, it will be detrimental to our army." Chen Yonghua replied.

Zheng Chenghua nodded slightly, then made up his mind and commanded decisively: "If you act in the daytime, it is easy to be detected by the Tartars, and it is not good to fight in a hurry. It is not good to order the troops to prepare, and the second day after tomorrow to climb a mountain, let them be caught off guard!"

At dawn on the 26th, the Qing army found that the Zheng army had reached Yinshan, and the distance was less than two miles. Guan Zhongzhong was shocked and immediately set up a defense. The Zheng army was also assigned to three layers to support each other.

Guan Zhongzhong ordered his own soldiers to wave the flag, and the Manchurian cavalry of the Qing army shouted in unison. Zheng Chenggong responded calmly and ordered all the troops to fight back. Immediately, the bird guns and battalion artillery fired in salvos. Many Qing soldiers were shot down, but the cavalry in the rear continued to advance bravely, and the speed was really different from the Qing soldiers who fought in the past. Upon seeing this, Zheng Chenggong ordered the dispatch of iron-clad elite soldiers. Immediately, more than 6,000 iron-clad soldiers in heavy armor and armed with shields and snake spears attacked the Qing cavalry in several formations.

The customary tactics of the Qing army were to first use cavalry to rush into the enemy's line with swift horses and whips, then slash, slash and trample the enemy's positions, and then shoot with strong crossbow to clean up the victory. Unexpectedly, the iron armored soldiers of the Zheng army were not afraid and stood still. When the cavalry of the Qing army approached, they raised their spears and stabbed fiercely. The horses were injured and panicked, and the people stood up and their momentum was greatly reduced. The leading Manchurian generals were experienced and saw that Zheng's iron-clad troops were difficult to overcome and their advance was blocked. He immediately ordered to retreat and returned fire with bows and arrows.

After some adjustments, Guan Zhongzhong ordered the horns to chirp, ordered another attack, and immediately shouted to kill Zhentian. Zheng Chenggong also ordered the Tiger Guards to hold the regimental badge and behead the saber. As a result, Zheng Jun soldiers were in groups of three, one holding a rattan shield to block arrows, one wielding a large sword to cut horses, the other slashing people, and the Qing soldiers fell off their horses one after another. Zheng Jun fought bravely for merits, and the Qing army could not take advantage of it at all.

Guan Zhongzhong saw that Zheng Jun was heroic, his offensive was unfavorable, and the casualties were heavy, so he ordered to retreat again. The Qing army quickly retreated to a stone's throw away. After discussing with the generals of Manchuria, Guan Zhongzhong ordered all the ministries to form a new formation, ready to attack again with stronger force.

Of course, Zheng Chenggong would not wait for the Qing army to move. He ordered a large number of bird guns, Japanese guns and turtledove guns to be hidden in the array. When the cavalry of the Qing army rushed in, Zheng Jun's order flag waved, gongs and drums rang loudly, and the soldiers retreated to both sides. Before, the "Bang Bang" shot in a row, the Qing soldiers were shot and fell off their horses, and the horses trampled everywhere.

How could the Qing army's iron cavalry ever see such a powerful firepower, and they all fled in succession. Guan loyalty was frightened, and he drew his sword in front of the battle and shouted: "Don't retreat, whoever retreats will kill me!"

However, the Qing army was defeated and no one listened to the order, and no matter how loyal they were, they could not stop the defeated soldiers. Guan Zhong was helpless and could only flee in a hurry. Zheng Jun was eager to chase and kill him. Despite his loyalty to martial arts and a brave man, he reined in several horses at the same time. Zheng Jun iron-clad soldiers killed one of his horses, and he jumped on the other horse. , with 4,000 Manchu soldiers, only 140 of them survived.

After returning to Nanjing, Guan Xiaozhong cried to Lang Tingzuo, the governor of Liangjiang and Jiang Ning's garrison, Angbang Zhang Jingshuo Erhui: "I entered the Central Plains from Manchuria and experienced seventeen battles, and I have never been defeated so badly!"

The Battle of Yinshan lasted four hours from morning to afternoon. The Qing army suffered heavy losses and abandoned countless military resources such as armor, horses, bows and arrows, guns, and guns. And Zheng Jun's arrangement is appropriate, the loss is not big. Qing Zhenjiang defender Gao Qian and prefect Daen and other officials first saw Zheng Jun's vast fleet, and then witnessed their own Manchu and Han elites being destroyed by Zheng Jun as if they were destroyed. Zheng Chenggong ordered Zhou Quanbin, the right guard, and Huang Zhao of Houchong, to enter the city to defend, and the general Gao Qian was subdued to defend the army. He also appointed Feng Chengshi, an engineer, as Chang Zhendao, and Dai Kejin still served as the prefect.

Lang Tingzuo, the governor of the Qing Dynasty and the Yangtze River, and others lived in Nanjing like a year. Zheng Chenggong ordered all the ministries to abide by military discipline. Therefore, Zheng Jun's good military discipline in Zhenjiang led to the arrival of followers from nearby cities, such as Jurong, Yizhen, Chuzhou, Liuhe and other cities. However, the top priority of attacking Nanjing was delayed, and Zheng Chenggong only sent Zhang Huangyan and Yang Rongzhen to Pukou to appease them.

On the 30th, Zheng Chenggong believed that the Zhenjiang area was ready to be appeased, so he convened a meeting of the admirals and commanders to discuss the matter of attacking Nanjing. At the beginning of the meeting, Zheng Chenggong asked the generals whether the advance to Nanjing was faster by water or by land. Gan Hui, the middle admiral, believed that the soldiers were very fast, and at the time of the great victory of Genshan, the Qing army was frightened, and Nanjing was completely unable to defend. The Zheng army should be driven by land, day and night. If the Qing army in Nanjing dared to fight, they would be defeated in a single blow. If the Qing army did not leave the city to fight, then the Zheng army would encircle Nanjing and cut off its reinforcements first, then the isolated city would not be attacked from below.

Gan Hui is against taking the water route, because the wind and trust are not smooth at this time, and the water route will inevitably delay time. It is very likely that Nanjing will be able to breathe and get reinforcements. At that time, with the southern capital firmly defending the city, Zheng Jun will have trouble breaking the city. . Zheng Chenggong was going to take Gan Hui's advice and attack by land, but the other generals objected to the land route on the grounds that Zheng's army came from afar, was not familiar with water and soil, the soldiers were heavily burdened, and the weather was hot and hot. Some people also pointed out that it is raining heavily now, and the rivers and ditches are full, which is not conducive to marching.

Zheng Chenggong thought about it, gave up the plan to go by land, and decided to go by water. As a result, due to the huge size of the sea boat that Zheng Jun was riding, it was against the current and it was not against the wind. It could only travel by slender pulls. As a result, when Zhou Shixiang received the military situation in Jiangnan, Zheng Jun had been on the river for eight days, but he was still far from Nanjing. Two or three days away.

........

In addition to the military information sent by the Ministry of Military Intelligence from Jiangnan, Tang Sanshui of Shaozhou also provided the latest trends in the battle of Jiangnan. The two-phase evidence shows that the war in Jiangnan is generally presented in the meeting room of the generals of the Northern Expedition. before.

Suna laughed and said to the crowd: "Zheng Jun's generals are short-sighted, they don't know water and soil, are the Manchu and Han soldiers and horses in the south of the Yangtze River literate? The truth is that soldiers are very fast, and I used to be a Manchurian. Even if he doesn't know a word, he understands every single word of his army. No one understands the fact that he has hundreds of thousands of troops. Didn't this procrastination give Lang Tingzuo, Shuo Erhui, and Guan Zhong a chance to survive? Just this delay, I reckon that the Qing soldiers near Nanjing had already rushed there. Yue Le from Anqing was a rare man among the Princes of Manchuria who knew the soldiers. Needless to say, he would also lead troops to reinforce Nanjing. Look at Xuan, if it is not done well, it is likely to return without success.”

Qi Hao, the general of the fifteen towns, disagreed with Suna's opinion, he said: "In the battle of Zhenjiang, the Eight Banners of Manchuria garrisoned in Nanjing were all wiped out, and most of the soldiers in Jiangnan were green camps. Even if Nanjing received reinforcements, I am afraid that It is not the opponent of Zheng Jun's army of more than 100,000 troops. Yanping took the waterway and dragged it a little bit, but the army is really close to the city, and the Qing army is afraid that it will not be able to hold Nanjing. "

Suna smiled, shook his head and said: "The Zheng army is not fake, but most of it is a navy army. The real soldiers who can fight on land are only 20,000 to 30,000. If you want to capture Nanjing City, two or three Ten thousand soldiers and horses are useless, you must know that Nanjing City is very impressive."

"What? What's so special about Nanjing?" Qi Hao was a little surprised.

"Nanjing is the two capitals of Ming Dynasty. If the city wall is repaired, it may not be as good as the city of Beijing. If the defenders in the city are dead, and if they want to take Nanjing City by storm alone, Zheng Jun will not be able to afford the loss." Suna road.

"According to what you said, Zheng Jun can't take Nanjing?"

Jiang He, who had just been released from prison for a few days, had a large scar on his head, but was beaten by Zhou Shixiang with a whip.

"Whether you can win Nanjing City~www.NovelMTL.com~ depends on the perseverance and determination of the surnamed Guo." Suna did not answer Jiang He directly.

Wang Fuchen, who had just been appointed as the general of Xinyi Town, got up and said: "Commander, it doesn't matter if Zheng Jun can take the southern capital or not, our Northern Expedition Army has been established for more than a month, and it is time to go north. thing."

Xinyi Town was originally the first town of the Bandit Suppression Army in western Hunan. It is now Xinyi Town in the Northern Expedition Army, and the other town is Xin Er Town. The four towns still in Hunan are Xin San and Xin Si. .. The three towns expanded by the first and third towns in Guangdong are the seventh, eighth, and ninth towns. Because these soldiers and horses have relatively weak combat effectiveness and are mostly new, they are given new prefixes. , to show the difference from the main town. Except for the two towns of Xinyi and Xiner in the Northern Expedition, the rest of Xinzi towns are basically local garrisoned troops, responsible for rear stability and security and bandit suppression tasks, and also responsible for sending troops to the main towns. In other words, Xinzi towns in various places are The second-line troops are only slightly stronger than the local security team.

However, the combat effectiveness of Wang Fuchen's new town was no worse than that of the main town, because his new town had four brigades, one of which was the Mongolian cavalry he brought back from Guangxi. The town of the new second town will be Zhu Qinglai, the former travel school of the first town. The official titles of the new town and the main town are different. For example, the town of the main town will be the commander, and the town general of the new town will be the commander. (To be continued.)
