After Shannan City was slaughtered, all counties under Shannan Prefecture were shocked by the atrocities of the Ming army. Local officials sent troops to restrain the territory and prohibited revenge against the Han people. At the same time, gentry and businessmen spent a lot of money to ask the Han people to come out to the Ming army to make peace, imitating the Baozhou law to exchange for the city redemption expenses for peace in the county. In response, the Ming army happily accepted this. In addition to money and grain, the Annan local counties also required young and strong labor ranging from 5 to 1 ooo for the Ming Dynasty to hire.

The employment time is three years, and the wages are settled and people are returned to their hometowns. The Ming Dynasty guarantees the personal safety of the Annan workers hired. At the same time, the Ming army also put forward conditions. In view of the large-scale massacre of innocent Han people in Annan, in order to prevent this incident from happening again, the local Han people's settlements should set up a security team and choose young and strong Han people to give them weapons to protect themselves. The money and grain supply expenses of the Han security team should be responsible for the Annan locality to show punishment.

If it was just to give money and food, the Ming army would also need people, and even more excessively, to rule the Han people. This condition was not to lose power and humiliate the country, and to bury the disaster.

The officials of Annan counties in Shannan were not fools, and of course they knew that the Ming army had no good intentions. Therefore, only three of the nine counties sent to negotiate agreed with the Ming army's request, and the rest either accused them angrily or ignored them. As a result, within a few days, the Ming army broke the two cities, just like Shannan Prefecture City was slaughtered. Therefore, the local officials of Annan who waited for the central reinforcements but were unable to defend their country sent people to bring a lot of wine and food to the Ming army's garrison to reward the army, and then signed the treaties. These treaties were collectively called the "di" by the Ming army, which was not signed by the Zheng family's central government, and they did not have legal rationality. However, the Ming Dynasty paid attention to etiquette and trustworthiness. In order to avoid the deaths and deaths of the two people, the Annan area where the "di" signed the "di" agreement is equal.

With the "cooperation" of local officials in Annan counties in Shannan, the feat of Annan people's large-scale resistance to the invading army was suppressed. Countless young and strong men were tied up by Annan officers and soldiers with ropes to the Ming army camp by Annan officers and soldiers. Because of the support of the Ming army, the Han people in Shannan formed security teams, protecting themselves on the one hand, but on the other hand, they cooperated with the Ming army and Annan official army to suppress the resistance forces of Annan people in the territory.

Before the territory of Shannan was completely pacified, Niu Gensheng led his troops to invade Qinghua. As the trend of slaughtering Han in the south became more and more intense, it had already affected the northern prefectures. In order to protect themselves, the Han people in Annan organized to resist the Annan government and asked the Ming army to help. In Hejing alone, more than 20,000 Han people gathered to form associations and begged for the Ming army to provide military assistance. In the Qinghua Prefecture, thousands of Han people Pang Bingdela captured the county town and responded to the Ming army.

Regarding the Han resistance forces in various places, Zhao Ziqiang issued an order that all departments must support and provide unconditional assistance. If they are willing to summarize, they will be reorganized into the Taiping Army. Those who do not want to summarize will seize the Annan army, so that they can protect themselves, and will wipe out the Annan resistance organizations in the occupied areas for the Ming army. However, for Annan, which is willing to spend money to eliminate disasters, they will follow the example of Shannan.

On the fourth day of the seventh month, the 12th town captured Pinghu City in Qinghua and launched the battle of Qinghua. Li Huacheng, the governor of the Zheng clan of Annan Zheng, died in battle. Under the threat of the Ming army massacre, the commander of Qinghua, Zheng Dekai City surrendered. At this point, the two towns and prefectures of Shannan and Qinghua were occupied by the Ming army, and the contact between Shenglong Prefecture and the south was cut off by the Ming army. After that, the navy Zheng Chengkui's troops entered the Jinluo River and attacked 43 warships, naval soldiers, 6 army, 6 oo and the Han Han rebels in Annan, and were preparing to cut off the Mekong River in Annan. On July 9, the Ming army started the battle of Deqing, and was stubbornly fought by the Zheng army in Annan. He was shot dead and injured 169 people and then captured Deqing.

After receiving reinforcements from Haiyang Water Village and the 6oo6 Army urgently transferred from the 1ooo River in the North Road, Zhou Sheng's troops began to march towards Guangning. The Ming army removed a large number of naval guns and brought them to the shore. With its powerful firepower, they broke through the defense line of the Zheng army in Guangning. The morale of the army rose sharply and their arrogance was very arrogant, shouting, "Go to Guangning first, then to Taiyuan, and take Shenglong directly!"

Although the Han people in Guangning were not slaughtered by the Zheng army, they also rose up to imitate the south, organized armed forces to resist the Annan government, defected to the Ming army, served as guides, or provided money and food.

Li Ziyuan, the governor of the Guangning family of Zheng, was a civil servant. He was afraid of the formation. Seeing the Ming army attacking again, he broke through the Zheng army's defense line at once. He was so scared that he was in panic in the garrison's palace. He did every day to send people to Beijing to move, trying to be transferred from Guangning. Li Wenyuan was incompetent, and the commander of the general Min Wenlian accepted the command of Guangning with the support of his subordinates. He deployed two east-west defense lines against the Ming army's invasion route. Among them, the western defense line was supported by Anzishan, which was the most steep.

Anzi Mountain is located 60 miles south of Guangning Prefecture City, with an altitude of 852 meters. Due to its dangerous terrain, it has been a must-fight for military strategists since ancient times. After the Ming army broke through the Zheng army's defense line, the commander Zhou Shengjiaokuang was divided into two groups to attack Guangning. The east road directly pointed to Guangning, and the west road detoured by Xian'an and Haitun. On the 28th, the Ming army captured Xian'an, and Anzi Mountain became the last barrier to defend Guangning.

In order to prevent the Ming army from advancing to Guangning, Min Wenlian personally led troops to guard Anzishan. He convened a military meeting and asked all the Zheng army troops on the northern front to concentrate on attacking the Ming army's transportation line from Xian'an to Anzishan. After interrupting the Ming army's transportation line, they surrounded the Ming army attacking Anzishan here. However, due to the successive failures on the battlefield on the east road, many Zheng army generals became afraid of war. Min Wenlian was the only one who was the real leader in the battle. In fact, the troops could be commanded were less than 5,000 troops, and the troops were divided into divisions to guard the east road defense line.

On July 2, the Ming army took the lead in attacking Chengxian Pass in Anzishan South. Zheng general Wu Yinglin fought to the death with less than 1 ooo people and repelled the Ming army's attack twice. However, under the cover of the fire army, the attacking Ming army still rushed through the Zheng army's defense line. In order to avoid the entire army's annihilation, Wu Yinglin led his troops to break through, and Chengxian Pass fell. The Ming army captured Chengxian Pass and then took a break, and then began to attack Anzishan fiercely, while Min Wenlian's defenders in Anzishan were less than 2 ooo people.

On the 5th, the 8oo navy, 5oo6 and 2oo Annan Han soldiers drove away the 7oo Duo Annan surrendered army, led by the navy general Wang Guoming, launched a tentative attack on Anzishan. In order to confuse the Ming army, Min Wenlian cleverly used a suspicious plan to arrange thousands of flags in the mountains and forests, arrange many war drums and horns, and mobilize nearby people to come to help with the war. The local people signed up enthusiastically when they heard the news, and instantly gathered thousands of people.

After the arrogant Ming army charged, it was attacked by the artillery guarding the gates of the Zheng army, which made the Ming army unable to advance and suffered heavy casualties. Then, the Ming army concentrated its forces again to seize the Zheng army's artillery position, but the open space in front of the position made the Ming army nowhere to hide. The Ming army soldiers suffered heavy casualties again under the powerful firepower of the Zheng army. At this time, the war drums hidden around were beating, the horns roared, and the flags were flying in the mountains and forests, and the shadows were everywhere. The Ming army commander Wang Guoming was in a bad momentum, so he had to lead a team to escape to the bottom of the mountain.

Seeing the situation, Min Wenlian commanded the troops to pursue the victory, and the nearby people also helped to flock to the Ming army. The Ming army fled back to Chengxian Pass in a panic. Wang Guoming asked commander Zhou Sheng to send large troops to reinforce, but at this time the main force of the Ming army stationed in Xian'an City was attacked by Annan's volunteers, and the transportation line was cut off and there was no soldiers to send. Wang Guoming had to lead his troops to retreat at Chengxian Pass to stalemate with the Zheng army.

Min Wenlian, who was highly motivated, decided to regain Chengxian Pass. On the evening of the 7th, it rained heavily in Anzishan District. The Ming army believed that the Zheng army would not attack in such weather. However, Min Wenlian personally led the Ou cavalry and 1oo Duoxiang soldiers to raid the Ming army camp and caught the unprepared Ming army off guard. When Min Wenlian rushed into the Ming army's command tent, the officers were shocked when they saw the Zheng army suddenly entering. Min Wenlian rode on a horse, took advantage of the situation and slashed down with his right sabre to kill a Ming army officer. This person was Wang Guoming, commander of Anzishan of the Ming army. The main general was killed in battle, and the remaining Ming army did not support him and abandoned the pass and fled. Subsequently, Min Wenlian led his troops to pursue him, defeated the Ming army in Dejiahe, killed hundreds of Ming troops, and completely recovered Chengxian Pass. This was the Zheng army's regaining lost territory since the war in Mingyue.

After that, Min Wenlian relied on favorable terrain and while defending her position, she continued to send troops to deal with the Ming army's guerrillas, and finally forced all the Ming army to retreat to Xian'an City. Since then, until the end of the war, the Ming army on the northern front has never been able to step over Anzishan.

Min Wenlian successfully commanded the Battle of Anzishan with the Zheng army defeated all the way and the morale of the army was dispersed, effectively curbing the Ming army's attack and hitting his arrogance. Although this battle failed to reverse the overall situation, it was a miracle when the Zheng army along the southern coastal coast was about to collapse. (To be continued.)8
