On the plank road from Chigang to Xin'an, 15,000 Fujian soldiers were marching feebly. These old troops of Zheng Zhilong were beaten to the point of losing their temper by Marshal Li.
To add. Marshal Li wanted to annex them, and the number of Fujian soldiers was getting smaller and smaller.
This time, Li Chengdong asked Fujian soldiers to take the vanguard.
Liang Li rode forward angrily. He had a bad temper and wanted to kill Marshal Li many times. But Marshal Li was a murderous demon king who did not blink an eye. Just think of the three massacres in Jiading on the 10th of Yangzhou, and they killed hundreds of people. Liang Li
Every time I see Marshal Li's eyes, I feel a little frightened and can only keep my hatred in my heart.
"Brother Liang, have you heard that I have given you a letter to raise troops in Xiaojinmen to fight against the Qing Dynasty?" Deputy General Huang Ting came to Liang Li's side.
Zhu Chenggong was the eldest son of Zheng Zhilong. These Fujian soldiers were miserably squeezed out by Li Chengdong, and they began to want to defect to the old master.
"Shh, keep your voice down, are you going to die?"
"What are you afraid of? These are all my brothers from Fujian. Is there anyone who will betray our brothers?"
Liang Li thought for a while: "Let's go find Lao Hong."
Hong Xishan was also Zheng Zhilong's old subordinate. The three of them discussed it and decided not to take it too seriously when fighting the Ming army later and leave some firepower for the Min army.
Following the Fujian soldiers were 10,000 soldiers under General Chen Yao and 5,000 soldiers under General Guo Hu.
These two men are both subordinates of Li Chengdong, and their pay and supplies are higher than those of the Fujian soldiers, so their morale is also high.
When setting off, Marshal Li gave them instructions and told them to go ahead during the fight to preserve their strength.
The problem is that Tong Yangjia, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, also talked to the two of them and asked them to fight bravely. For their meritorious service, the court did not hesitate to reward the prince. O prince!
Should we listen to Marshal Li or Governor Tong?
Guo Hu didn't even think about it and listened to Marshal Li. He was an honest man and didn't understand any big principles. He just knew who had more soldiers and listened to him. Marshal Li had more soldiers and listened to Marshal Li.
Chen Yao didn't think so. A few months ago, he was a well-known hero in the Green Forest of Guangdong. He surrendered after being surrounded and suppressed by Marshal Li's troops. They had only known each other for a short time, so the relationship was naturally not that strong. He felt that whose official position was subordinated to the other. Governor Tong
He is older than Admiral Li and listens to Governor Tong. Once this battle is over, maybe we can even get a marquis to work for us!
??
On the plank road from Xin'an to Chigang, the soldiers of the Ming army marched majestically.
Hao Yongzhong and Wang Jincai's troops had just arrived, and they were at their peak. Yan Tianfeng, the Marquis of Pingdong in the Ming Dynasty, understood the principle of taking advantage of the situation. He ordered Hao Yongzhong to be the vanguard, and he and Wang Jincai to be the back-up. While the soldiers were full and the horses were full, they went to kill Hao Yongzhong.
Akaoka.
"General Hao, I heard that when you go to war, you like to charge with a big flag. People in the army call you Hao Yaoqi?"
"Oh, my shameful reputation has actually reached the commander's ears. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!"
Yan Tianfeng's words tickled Hao Yongzhong, and he grinned happily.
"In this case, I will be in the middle of the army to watch the general waving the flag."
"Don't worry, Commander, the final general will definitely show the majesty of our Ming Dynasty soldiers!"
??
One party was walking from Chigang to Xin'an, and the other party was walking from Xin'an to Chigang, and they met halfway.
The brave one who meets you halfway wins!
Hao Yongzhong rode the yellow gelding and led the way. Although he was known as Hao Waoqi, he was already a general. He was really not needed for waving flags. He had his own flag officer following behind.
"Kill!"
One man rode a horse to clear out the general and stabbed him with his spear.
Hao Yongzhong smiled coldly, sided to avoid the tip of the gun, held the gun body with his left arm, bullied him forward, swung the knife with his right hand, and the head fell to the ground.
"Kill!"
The shining sword is waved, making the one invincible.
The general fought hard and the three armies moved forward.
The Ming army fought bravely, but the Qing army had its own agenda.
Hong Xishan, Liang Li, and Huang Ting secretly complained. They wanted to passively avoid the war and save some firepower for the Fujian army. But as a vanguard, it was not easy to preserve their strength. The Ming army chased them and the Fujian army suffered heavy casualties.
The three people hurriedly asked for help from the rear army.
Guo Hu listened to Marshal Li and refused to save him. He led his troops and prepared to run away.
Chen Yao listened to Governor Tong and led 10,000 troops to rescue.
The Ming army had many generals and brave men, but the Qing army had few soldiers and was disorganized. The encounter ended quickly, and the Qing army was defeated, losing more than half of it. Taking advantage of the victory, the Ming army captured Chigang and Dapeng, and drove the Qing army out.
Guangzhou, retreat to Huizhou.
At Huizhou Admiral's Yamen, Li Chengdong stared at Chen Yao, who was kneeling on the ground, sweating profusely, and shouted angrily: "I have given you thousands of instructions and thousands of instructions, so that you must not waste your time fighting and conserve your fighting power. Why don't you listen? You have suffered such a loss.
If there are too many soldiers and horses, what crime should be committed?"
Chen Yao was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. People tend to say the wrong things when they are scared.
"It was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Mr. Tong Yangjia, who ordered the general to move forward bravely. When he saw that the Ming army was pressing the Fujian soldiers too hard, he couldn't bear it and rushed to the rescue, which led to this defeat."
It's okay not to mention Tong Yangjia, but if I mention it, I will lose my life.
Li Chengdong smiled coldly and said to himself: It seems that this guy only knows about the governor and does not know about the commander! If he is not killed, others will not know who has the final say in Guangdong.
"Drag it out and kill it!"
??
After the Ming army defeated the Qing Navy, Gai Yipeng, the commander-in-chief of the Qing Guangdong Navy, and Li Runxiang, the deputy general, led 10,000 remaining navy troops to retreat to Jinghai Station, Chaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong. Among them was Shi Lang, who was promoted to Fujian Navy
The remaining three thousand people.
After the Qing army retreated to Chaozhou, the remnants of the Fujian army, including Hong Xishan, Liang Li, Huang Ting and other generals, had 7,000 troops left.
Li Chengdong felt that the opportunity to annex the Fujian generals had come. It was difficult to do it under Tong Yangjia's nose. He ordered Hong Xishan, Liang Li, and Huang Ting to lead the remaining soldiers to retreat to Huilai, Chaozhou to rest and recuperate; he also secretly ordered his trusted general Hao Shangjiu to make preparations.
, after the remaining Fujian soldiers retreated to Huilai, they immediately took action to kill their generals and unite their troops.
??
In the outer building of Chaozhou Mansion, Fujian navy generals Shi Lang and Cheng Sheng invited Chaozhou general Hao Shangjiu to dinner.
After Shi Lang and Li Cheng were defeated, they only had three thousand men left. They knew that they did not have the strength to attack Xiaoshantou anymore, so they wanted to find a backer. They took the initiative to curry favor with Hao Shangjiu and invited General Hao to drink.
Golden pork ribs, baked chicken with bean paste, casserole porridge, Teochew cold dish, Huguo cuisine, too late??
One after another Teochew dishes were served.
We are all generals, so we don’t have to pay too much attention to things. We shout and drink, change cups, blush, and call each other brothers.
Hao Shangjiu was an honest man and the most loyal person. As soon as he drank the wine, he immediately regarded Shi and the two as brothers.
"Don't worry, my dear brothers, from now on, if I, Old Hao, have a mouthful to eat, my brothers will have a mouthful to eat. I, Old Hao, will never treat my brothers badly!"
"Thank you, brother!"
The two of them persuaded each other to drink.
Hao Shangjiu has a bad habit: he can't control his mouth after drinking too much.
"After a period of time, if you two brothers hear any noise in the military camp, please do not leave the camp. Brother, I will ensure that you two are safe."
"Brother, why is this? Could it be that the Ming army is coming?"
"Hey, the commander-in-chief wants me to kill Hong Xishan, Liang Li, and Huang Ting, and merge their armies."
Shi Lang, was shocked after hearing the news.
They are all Fujian Paoze, how can they ignore death and not save them?
The two of them diligently persuaded Hao Shangjiu to drink and got him drunk; at the same time, they asked people to tell Hong Xishan, Liang Li, and Huang Ting.
That night, Hong Xishan, Liang Li, and Huang Ting led their troops to flee to the station where Shilang was established. They boarded their warships and fled to Fujian to join Zhu Chenggong. Because there were not many warships, they could not hold too many people.
The general only packed 5,000 soldiers and fled. There were still 5,000 soldiers and horses that were not taken away and were annexed by Hao Shangjiu.
Although there are not many men and horses, they are all veterans of many battles. Zheng Chenggong obtained these soldiers and horses, and his power increased greatly. He mobilized horses and troops in Fujian and prepared to make waves.
