"Victory in the first battle, heavy damage to the pirates, congratulations to the Governor-General!"

There was a sound of celebration in the governor's yamen in Jiangning City, and the cups and mugs were intertwined, and it was very lively. Lang Tingzuo, Governor of Liangjiang, had a smile on his face that he hadn't seen for more than a month, and Aung Bang Zhang Jing Shuo Er Hui's face also blushed because he was too excited.

No one would have thought that the pirate army, which had been invincible since entering the river, would be so vulnerable. Liang Huafeng and Guan Xiaozhong led less than 2,000 soldiers and horses to severely damage more than 10,000 elite pirates, and they were captured alive. Yu Xin, the pirate general, was captured alive. When Daya Dali and Tong Guonian and other generals in Manchuria heard the news, they were stunned on the spot.

"Liang Zongbing succeeded in the first battle and captured the pirate general alive. He has made a great contribution. I will definitely write a big book for the general soldier in the book!"

Jiang Guozhu, the governor of Jiangning, was unable to contain his excitement. He was holding a wine glass in one hand and tightly holding Liang Huafeng's hand in the other, and his excited voice trembled. Jiang Guozhu couldn't help but be excited, because this Liang Huafeng was his subordinate.

When Liang Huafeng heard the governor's words, he was happy in his heart, but he showed modesty, and said hurriedly: "This victory is all thanks to the governor's plan to slow down the troops, and the good command of the commander of Futai, and the last general is just a little harder. And that's it. Besides, the pirates were originally a rabble, and at the end of the day, they will watch his barracks at the top of the city. How can they look like a strong soldier, they looked at them highly before."

"Yes, yes, the rabble..."

Jiang Guozhu heard this and thought that Lang Tingzuo sent Guan Zhongzhong to lead the army to attack the pirates, but they suffered two major defeats in Guazhou and Zhenjiang, killing 4,000 real Manchu soldiers. On his side, Liang Huafeng hit the pirates in his first shot. More than 10,000 elite soldiers have captured their generals alive. Comparing the two, Jiang Guozhu is a lot higher than the governor of Lang Tingzuo, and he is very happy.

Lang Tingzuo's face was a little embarrassed, and it didn't feel good to listen to allegiance. In the battle at dawn, he also led his troops out of the city, but unfortunately he chose the wrong direction of attack, and the result was not as great as Liang Huafenglai's. If he were to be replaced in Yifengmen , I am afraid that Yu Xin is his own defeated general.

Seeing that Lang Tingzuo and Guan Xiaozhong's faces were a little stiff, Jiang Guozhu knew what they were thinking, and he said with a haha: "Of course, Admiral Guan also worked hard, and Ben Fu will definitely write a lot for you."

After finishing speaking, he raised his glass to the officials and generals and said, "Everyone, after this battle, the pirates were afraid, but the morale of my officers and soldiers in the Qing Dynasty was high. This Jiangning City will definitely be defended. Come on, I will wait for the Qing Dynasty and the emperor. Hey!"

"Congratulations for the Qing Dynasty and the Emperor!"

The civil and military officials and the Manchu generals were happy to raise their glasses, but Lang Tingzuo snorted slightly, very unhappy, because just now the officials were congratulating his governor.

Ang Bang Zhangjing Shuo Erhui is the son of An Fei Yanggu, the five founding ministers of the Qing Dynasty. After the original Jiangning garrison Ang Bang Zhang Jing Ha Mu was transferred to Guangzhou General, he was transferred from Xi'an Mancheng to Nanjing to serve as Ang Bang Zhangjing. This man is a good-tempered man. He is not like the general Manchurian generals who stand on the top and look at people with their nostrils raised. After Nanjing was surrounded, he was really scared, because all the eight banners garrisoned in Nanjing Manchuria were buried in Zhenjiang. He thought that Nanjing would fall and his life would not be guaranteed, but Liang Huafeng was so excited that he had won such a victory.

He said to the crowd: "Prince An sent an order, ordering us to stand firm. He is mobilizing reinforcements from the northern provinces. When the pirates are trapped in the fortified city, Prince An will send a large army to attack him and cut off his head and tail. The saint has also arrived. Jingyujia will go on a personal expedition, and when the army arrives, the bandits will be destroyed!"

The officials nodded their heads.

Jiang Guozhu suddenly asked the Governor Lang Tingzuo: "It is reported that the Guangdong bandits attacked Jiangxi from the north. I wonder how the situation in Jiangxi Province is going?"

Lang Tingzuo glanced at him and said, "The former governor sent people to Nanchang, and Zhang Chaolin said that the Guangdong bandits had already arrived in Ganzhou. This will lead the Admiral Liu Guangbi to confront the Guangdong bandits in the Ji'an area."

Jiang Guozhu was very worried: "Guangdong bandits are fierce, that thief show has the ability of Li Dingguo, Liu Guangbi can stop him? Jiangxi is the place where the four provinces are swallowed up. If it falls into the hands of Guangdong bandits, Jiangnan, Fujian, Zhejiang and Huguang will all have Danger."

Daya Dali frowned: "If Jiangxi is really wrong, wouldn't the Cantonese bandits come to Jiangning along the river?"

Lang Tingzuo was about to speak, but Shuo Erhui got up and shook his head and said: "It's okay, Prince An has deployed Anqing Water Village to prepare, and Anqing has Prince An in command, and the Guangdong bandits have no water division, so it is difficult to kill them along the river."

As soon as he heard that Prince An was sitting in Anqing in person, Daya Dali and other Manchu general Zuzi couldn't be more relieved.

Lang Tingzuo also said: "Right now, Jiangnan is a serious matter. Zhang Chaolin only needs to last for the first ten months, and he has his own army to rescue him. Jiangxi does not need to worry."

"Lord Governor, the last commander thought that he should be aggressive, strike while the iron is hot, and launch a full-scale attack on the pirates tomorrow." Liang Huafeng spoke cautiously, but he still showed his pride.

"General Liang's soldiers are brave, but Yu Xin is only a part of Zheng Ni. Today's battle is enough to delay his siege steps until more reinforcements arrive, and then make calculations." Lang Tingzuo was noncommittal.

"Your Excellency the Governor clearly understands that although there are many pirates, the number of soldiers who can fight in armor should be less than 30,000, and they are indeed the leader of my Eight Banners force on land." Liang Huafeng also carefully observed Zheng Jun while leading the battle. He continued: "The pirates scattered too widely. Our army climbed the Mufu Mountain from the south and rushed down along the mountain to intimidate people. At the same time, they opened fire at Yifeng Gate. The team bypassed the moat and attacked at the head of the bridge, so that the pirates could be forced to the riverside."

After listening to Liang Huafeng's words, Guan Loyalty also felt good, but he frowned and asked: "There are still many iron-clad elite soldiers in the army of the thieves of Zheng, and our army will fight again, and the thieves of Zheng must be prepared. ?"

"The clip with hook and lock is enough to break it, and the battle of dawn can prove it." Liang Huafeng was confident, "Even if we do not win the whole victory, the pirates can still pay the price. The equipment used in the city will take at least ten days, and by then there will be Prince An's army near, and the Holy Lord's army far away, so it's not us who should be worried, but the Zheng thief."

Lang Tingzuo saw that Liang Huafeng had a firm attitude towards fighting, and he did not object to allegiance. Shuo Erhui and other Manchu generals Zuo Yin were stimulated by the early morning battle and wanted to ask for meritorious service, so they nodded in agreement. In this battle, Liang Huafeng volunteered himself. If he wins, he, as the governor, will of course have the power to rule; even if he loses, it is Liang Huafeng who underestimates the enemy and advances rashly, and he will not be harmed.

Lang Tingzuo stood up and bowed, and said to Liang Huafeng, Guan Xiaozhong and others, "The safety of the people in Nanjing must be entrusted to the generals."

Later, it was discussed that the main force led by Shuo Erhui, Melezhangjing, Gachuha, Marseille, and the chief soldier Liang Huafeng would go out to battle by land;

The next day, Jiangning's elite Qing army came out. The Zheng army had prepared ammunition the day before, and when they saw the appearance of the Qing army, they immediately opened fire to meet them. Zheng Jun's general Yang Zu did not expect that the Qing army also had a lot of artillery, so the two sides confronted each other with artillery. Suddenly, the direction of the wind changed, blowing the smoke and sand from the artillery bombardment towards Zheng Jun. The sight was blocked for a while, and the artillery bombardment stopped.

Seeing the opportunity, Liang Huafeng waved the flag and blew the horn and ordered the charge. Daya Dali, Tong Guonian, etc. led the Manchu cavalry to charge, and the momentum was amazing. Yang Zu sent iron armored soldiers, but it seemed that they were poorly trained or rushed into battle. fall. The Qing army was waving jujube sticks with hooks. Zheng's saber was unable to function. Yang Zu could not stop the cavalry sprinting, so he had to retreat, so the Qing army shot with strong crossbow, and the arrows flew in unison.

Zheng Chenggong looked at Guanyin Mountain and saw the flags of the Qing army flying. In front of the team was a group of cavalry with red tassel helmets. At this time, the personal soldiers came to report: "The lord, the Tartars are found on the bridge and the river!"

"Aren't these Tartars afraid of death!"

Zheng Chenggong was furious and found that Yang Zu's troops could no longer be resisted, and he retreated step by step, so he immediately ordered: "Tell Wan Lu to lead Youchong Town and Youhuwei to support." The number of arrows in the body was killed, and Yang Zu's army was defeated.

Lang Tingzuo was watching the battle on the tower, and when he saw the flag of the Qing army slowly moving up the mountain, he excitedly said to the left and right: "My soldiers have gone up the mountain, and we are victorious!"

Zheng Chenggong waved the banner and ordered the neighboring troops to contain them. However, due to the foggy water and poor visibility, the troops could not see the banner clearly. After arriving in Nanjing, Zheng Chenggong strictly ordered "No order not to be taken lightly." Fighting”, the armies did not dare to leave their positions without authorization, which made Zheng Jun’s superior forces unable to respond flexibly and support each other.

The Zheng army failed steadily, but the Qing army was strong. Manchu soldiers who were good at riding and archery rushed down from the heights. Immediately, the Zheng army was in chaos, and they were defeated. Gan Hui shouted and wanted to recall the scattered soldiers, but he could not command them. The Qing army became more and more surrounded. Gan Hui wielded his sword to fight, killing dozens of people, but many of his followers were killed. Seeing that the situation was over, Gan Hui shouted at the Qing soldiers to avoid further casualties: "Don't shoot arrows, I am Gan Hui, you can capture me and ask for merit!" Hui put down his big sword, then swarmed up and tied him up.

Zheng Chenggong saw that the battle was unfavorable and the situation was critical, so he ordered Pan Gengzhong, who joined the army, to stand under the yellow umbrella on the podium and not leave without permission, so as not to affect morale. He led more than ten cavalry, and wanted to go to the riverside. He personally ordered the navy to attack from the rear. Liang Huafeng saw Huang Gai standing on Guanyin Mountain~www.NovelMTL.com~ pointed to his subordinates and shouted: "Catch the thief as the king, catch the thief. Zheng Rebels will be rewarded!"

The Qing soldiers of the brigade attacked Guanyin Mountain, and Pan Gengzhong strictly followed the order to fight to the death, and was finally shot and killed by the Qing army. Later, after admiral Wan Li led the army to cut off, he was attacked on both sides by the Qing troops stationed earlier at the head of the bridge, and he was not defeated by the enemy. The generals were killed and captured one after another. Zheng Jun's command failed. Although the troops still followed, the soldiers had lost their fighting spirit and rushed to the riverside.

The dead of Zheng Jun's marine battles are not counted, but the ships and soldiers on the river bank are still disciplined. Liang Huafeng's troops set fires everywhere. Guan Zhongzhong also led the navy to fire artillery attacks. , The rear is not chaotic and orderly, which is also admired by the Qing army. However, Zheng Jun's navy had to protect his relatives and leave a way out for the retreat. In addition, the combat effectiveness of the land battle was not high, so he had no power to turn the situation around.

When the battle reached this point, Zheng Chenggong knew that he was out of control, and ordered Gan Hui and others to retreat immediately. Zheng Chenggong, who got on the big boat, looked back to the riverside, looked at the black heads, and the screams of killing in the distance, he couldn't help sighing, and said to Chen Yonghua, who joined the army: "The army built by this vassal's ten years of hard work is actually a trick. Such a disastrous defeat, this domain can't handle the soldiers!"

A gust of wind blew across the river, and in August the Yangtze River seemed to become the north wind in an instant. (To be continued.) Mobile users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
