"Zuo Menggeng, don't your men also have naval warships? Where are they now? Boost me immediately, and they can't let their naval warships continue to fire."

Haoge on the city wall remembered that when Zuo Menggeng surrendered to the Qing court, he once reported all his troops.

At that time, Haoge remembered that Zuo Menggeng had the Huguang Navy in his hand. It was said that there were hundreds of ships. The court was very happy at that time. After all, the Qing court did not have naval warships, which was considered to have come from scratch.

"When the prince said, when they fired the artillery just now, they had already ordered the naval warship to go to battle. It would take at least an hour to arrive from our naval warship. They are currently rushing to the fullest."

Zuo Menggeng acted very positively, and his attitude was still very good, but he heard that there was still one hour, and Haoge immediately became angry.

It takes an hour to come. When you come, the cucumbers and vegetables will probably be cold. Listening to the sound of the explosion, it has almost never stopped. After an hour, even if we have a million troops, they may have collapsed.

Zuo Menggeng had already calculated this, so he ordered his water to retreat from the warship.

Even if Haoge is not satisfied now, what can we do? The navy warship itself has to be stationed in the camp. The camp here has been demolished by Zuo Menggeng. Even if he wants to blame him, he will probably have no idea.

"you…"

Even though he knew that Zuo Menggeng was playing tricks, there was no other way. If he dealt with Zuo Menggeng at this time, it would be a matter whether he could maintain unity if he could fight the Ming Dynasty.

The first round of attack was quickly beaten back, even if the Eight Banners Cavalry had already worked very hard.

But the enemy's artillery was too fierce. When they gathered together, the cavalry suffered too much casualties. If they were dispersed, it would not be stressful to the enemy's front. It would be wrong to do anything.

Fortunately, the Ming army did not press it. If it were pressed, I'm afraid that there would be no one like them.

When Haoge saw the troops below suffered heavy casualties, he was really angry.

At this time, Zuo Menggeng's naval warship also appeared on the river. It would be fine if he didn't look at it, but he became even more angry when he saw it.

"Is this the 80,000 navy mentioned in your memorial?"

Zuo Menggeng was grabbed by Haoge, and Haoge's fingers were trembling. He couldn't believe that the dozen or so broken ships appeared in the distance, representing the 80,000 people of the Huguang Navy.

"The prince did have 80,000 naval troops. Wu Sangui, the King of Pingxi, could testify to me. However, during the Battle of Jiujiang, my subordinates suffered serious losses. A large number of warships were leaking, but I was short of money, so I couldn't do any repairs."

Zuo Menggeng said slowly that after the Battle of Jiujiang, Zuo Menggeng also wrote a letter to the Qing court, hoping that they could allocate some of the money, but the Qing court had a dispute with Zuo Menggeng, which was a traceable point.

It is normal that you can't repair the warship without money.

What's more, during the Battle of Jiujiang, in addition to Wu Sangui's people, there were many officials in the court there.

Many of these people were Manchus, and they would never tell lies. However, in order to better control Zuo Menggeng, the Qing court deliberately delayed the allocated silver for half a month.

After finding out these things, even if Zuo Menggeng was suspected of avoiding war, the main responsibility was still in the capital. Haoge could not beat the officials in the capital, so this guy was so angry that he screamed.

What's more, Wu Sangui also testified to Zuo Menggeng. Half of what he said was lies and half of the truth.

But now it is difficult to get rid of the tiger, and he and Zuo Menggeng must become an alliance. If he doesn't help this time, if he has problems next time, Zuo Menggeng will be deaf, and in the end he will be divided and treated by Haoge.

"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. The most important thing now is not to hold the responsibility accountable, but to continue attacking. We didn't know that their naval warships are now ready, so we should continue to plan the situation."

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Haoge couldn't speak out his anger. Wu Sangui came out to be a good man at this time. He couldn't let Haoge send Zuo Menggen to the spot. If this was the case, Zuo Menggen would dare to rebel immediately.

Where will you go?

"Wait for me, no one can escape after fighting this battle."

Haoge threw down a sentence viciously, which means that he would no longer pursue this matter. Zuo Menggeng didn't feel that this matter was threatening. Judging from the situation just now, let's talk about it if you guys can win.

Just one hour after the war started, the number of casualties on our side had reached 5,000. This was not five thousand pigs, but the most elite five thousand cavalrymen.

When the Qing Dynasty just entered the pass, five thousand Eight Banners cavalry could take at least several prefectures, and they could chase tens of thousands of Ming troops and run around. Now, it's better, I can't hold on for even an hour, and the battlefield is filled with the mood of failure.

On the other hand, everyone was here to watch a scene happily, and many artillery brothers commented on it. The navy's artillery was indeed neat, but its power was somewhat insufficient.

"I said, don't be standing there anymore. The navy warship has already sent a signal. The next game is up to us. They need to replenish supplies and strengthen crossbow arrows. We can't let them laugh at you later."

After the artillery on the navy warship was fired for a while, they had to be reinforced. After all, they were not on land and their recoil was quite serious, so after a while of attack, they had to be left with an hour.

"Captain, just look at it. The artillery of the navy warship is modified after all. We are real iron cannons. When these Qing Dazi arrive, we will make his face bloom."

Several artillery company commanders said with a smile, "This is going to gather their subordinates." Many soldiers just now ran to the edge to watch the fun. Now they have to gather them together quickly. This battle is a bit of a play."

"Artillery preparation...artillery preparation."

More than a dozen cavalry captains rode back and forth on horseback, and the artillery soldiers from the three camps were all in combat.

The Qing army on the city wall also saw it. It was not idle for a while. After the navy's artillery was fired, would the infantry's artillery start to greet again?

Many Qing soldiers showed fear on their faces...
