In fact, Shang Kexi’s move can be said to be exactly what Zhu Hongyu wanted!
Why did Zhu Hongyu ask the Ming army to fly the British flag several times and also let Charles and others appear on the battlefield?
Except for his own bad taste and wanting to blame Daying on me.
That’s why this is the case now!
If the Ming and Qing armies go to war, the two sides will definitely not be able to do business directly.
As a result, wouldn't Macao's commercial port be abandoned?
What a pity!
Therefore, at this time, it is very important to put on a layer of vest for yourself.
Charles received Zhu Hongyu's order, and then went to hook up with the people sent by Shang Kexi.
…
Li Wenjun looked at the yellow-haired ghost in front of him, and secretly thought in his heart that the blond hair and blue eyes really didn't look like a human being, but he spoke in a very sincere tone.
"Dear Mr. Charles, on behalf of the respected King, I would like to convey the most sincere greetings from the Qing Dynasty to you and the country of England behind you."
Charles sat down and then spoke.
"Oh, is it true what your Lord the Commander-in-Chief said? As long as we backstab the Ming Kingdom, you will hand over Macau to us?"
Li Wenjun said.
"Sir Charles, of course!"
"Our Qing Dynasty has a vast territory with rich products and everything. It is just a small Macao. Even if it is transferred to the British Empire, it will not be a big deal."
"You and I happen to be in Macau and can continue to do business, right?"
Charles said.
"Of course it is possible to stab the Ming Dynasty in the back. Our British fleet came to the Far East just to do business."
“Who is not doing business with?”
"However, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have just returned to Macau from the mainland and are very wary. It will take me some time to plan before I take action!"
Charles was prepared to delay.
This is the order Zhu Hongyu gave him!
The reason why Zhu Hongyu wanted to delay was to buy time for the large number of people gathered in Macau to move.
The second reason is to have some sympathy with Zheng Chenggong!
Then borrow some Westerners from Zheng Chenggong to cooperate with Charles in completing the play.
Since the British wanted to stab the Ming army in the back and control Macau, there were too few people so the scene couldn't go on.
Li Wenjun stood up from his seat, held Charles' hand, and said.
"Congratulations to Mr. Charles, you and the English country behind you have made the most correct choice!"
"The Qing Dynasty has a vast territory, countless wealth, and many exquisite and precious goods..."
"The Qing Dynasty will never treat its friends badly!"
"Mr. Charles will definitely feel gratified that he made the most correct choice today."
Charles smiled and agreed, then turned around and reported to Zhu Hongyu the details of his negotiations with Li Wenjun.
Zhu Hongyu just sneered after hearing this, but didn't take it seriously.
Then arrange everything and everything will go according to plan!
…
After Zheng Chenggong left the Pearl River Estuary, he led his troops northward, from the coast of Guangdong to the coast of Fujian.
The Ming army continuously landed and harassed the coastal areas, even destroying coastal cities such as Zhangzhou and Quanzhou.
A large number of people and goods were carried away and transported to Dayuan Island, which was separated by a sea.
Zheng Chenggong adopted the piecemeal tactics proposed by Zhu Hongyu to continuously harass coastal cities, often avoiding the real and attacking the weak, and then leaving with one strike.
In just over a month, more than ten Qing cities were breached and nearly 10,000 people in the Qing Green Camp were annihilated.
In a short period of time, tens of thousands of people were swept away, and Zheng's army's war potential was greatly increased.
The whole of Fujian was in shock, and military reports asking for help were constantly sent to Geng Jingzhong in South Australia.
Geng Jingzhong ordered the army to immediately return to aid Fujian.
However, the army's marching speed is not as fast as that of the navy.
The Zheng army marched along the coast, quickly reached the coast of Fuzhou, and then conducted a landing operation.
The Qing army sent troops to block the attack, and Zheng Chenggong sent his own Iron Man Army and personal guards to face the enemy head-on.
The Qing army was defeated and defeated!
After defeating the Qing army, the Zheng army reached the gates of Fuzhou City!
Although due to the desperate resistance of the Fuzhou defenders and the Jingnan Prince's vassal soldiers, the Zheng army failed to capture Fuzhou.
However, Zheng Jun took action and raided all the flag villages outside Fuzhou City!
Not even the population or supplies were left behind for Geng Jingzhong!
What made Zheng Chenggong even more happy was that Zheng Jun captured a large number of horses in the process.
They are all good horses raised by the Jingnan Palace in various flag villages, and now they are all at an advantage to Zheng Jun!
Geng Jingzhong did not return to Fuzhou until three days after Zheng's army withdrew.
But it was already too late, and all Zheng Jun left him was a broken mess.
Zheng Chenggong stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the horizon in the distance, and let out a heavy breath.
Behind him, Zheng Jun's generals all had happy faces!
Zheng Jun's victory in Fujian captured a large number of people and supplies.
Naturally, all the generals below are full of food!
After the defeat of Nanjing, the fear of engaging in a land battle with the Qing army gradually disappeared.
Zheng Jun's military morale has returned to its peak again!
At this moment, a messenger came up on the deck and delivered a battle report to Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Chenggong took the battle report and read it. After a while, he couldn't help but slap the side of the boat hard, and then laughed loudly.
"Hahaha, okay!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"Come and see, come and see!"
As he spoke, he handed the battle report in his hand to his subordinates.
Then he continued to speak.
"His Royal Highness Jianguo fought a great victory in Guangdong. He annihilated 7,000 Han troops and Eight Banners in one battle. He defeated the Qing court in formation and answered the letter of Gong Shang!"
"Promote the prestige of our Ming Dynasty, promote the prestige of our Ming Dynasty!"
"Ha ha!"
Zheng Chenggong laughed heartily.
Although in this battle, he also destroyed a large number of Qing troops.
However, the gold content of Green Camp and Eight Banners is completely different!
No matter how many deaths there were in the Green Camp, it was nothing worth mentioning to the Qing court.
Han people’s lives are worthless!
But if the Eight Banners soldiers were annihilated by the establishment, even the Eight Banners of the Han Army, it would shake the foundation of the Qing Dynasty's rule.
"It's fun! This victory is really fun!"
"His Royal Highness, Jianguo, is like a god in his military skills!"
"Seven thousand Han troops and eight banners, tsk tsk, I'm afraid this old thief will be heartbroken to death!"
"..."
…
Around the time Zheng Chenggong received the military report, Li Dingguo's headquarters in Mengla also received news of the battle.
After the malaria was cured, Li Dingguo's body recovered quickly, and it didn't take long for him to become energetic again.
Coupled with the assistance from the Liberation Army, the strength of Li Dingguo's troops quickly recovered.
Moreover, while Li Dingguo's troops were recuperating, the troops led by Li Laiheng and Habai also withdrew to the vicinity of Mengla after passing through layers of siege by the Qing army.
The coalition forces from both sides are stationed together!
Jointly deal with the military pressure from Wu Sangui's headquarters.
After receiving supplies such as armor, weapons, food and medicine from the Liberation Army, Li Dingguo, Li Laiheng, Habai and others all recognized Zhu Hongyu's position as supervisor of the country.
The fundamental reason is that the hands that hold people are short and the mouth that eats people is soft.
Since they received assistance from the Liberation Army, they must also make some statements.
