Chapter 309 Return to Beijing (3)

 "General, we are rich." The cronies secretly pulled Guo Tiancai to the captured supplies. In this battle, in addition to 1,500 horses, there were mountains of gold and silver, and seas of pearls and jade.

"This dog Tatar actually plundered so much property." Guo Tiancai swallowed and was about to hide a batch privately.

Wang Qi, the governor of the capital, arrived and said, "General Guo, according to the military regulations of the Ming Dynasty, those captured must be handed over."

"That's it, that's it." Guo Tiantian said with a grimace and agreed repeatedly. Zhu Hengjia set up military judges such as Zhenfu, Zhenfu envoys, and Zhenfu envoys in various ministries. These people were responsible for recording military merits and enforcing military regulations.

Don’t offend!

Wang Qi suddenly smiled and said, "Our army captured a lot of people in this battle, and the commander-in-chief will definitely give him a reward after he reports to the country."

"Yeah," Guo Tiancai said. He was very angry. There were so many gold and silver jewels right in front of him, but he couldn't take them. He was really angry! He didn't dare to attack Wang Qi, and roared: "That guy Zhang Guoxun fled to Jinshan Guard."

Go, cheer up the general and pursue the enemy bravely!"

??

Jinshan Acropolis was built in the 19th year of Hongwu to prevent Japanese pirates from invading, and it belongs to Huating County.

Although the city is small, it has a large port. The commander-in-chief of the Fujian Navy of the Qing Dynasty, Gai Yipeng, and the deputy general Huang Wu were stationed here with 12,000 naval troops. In addition, there was a garrison and a thousand flood troops in the city.

At this moment, Gai Yipeng and Huang Wu were not in the port. The Ming navy was coming, and they were going to sea to fight.

The Jinshan Guards were anxiously waiting for the news of the naval battle. Suddenly they saw smoke and dust billowing, but it was Commander-in-Chief Zhang Guoxun who led 6,000 defeated troops to flee.

As soon as he entered the city, Zhang Guoxun shouted to the guards: "Quick, close the city gate!"

Just after closing the east city gate, Guo Tiancai and Chen Kui's 6,000 soldiers, plus Chen Jian's 5,000 rebel troops, approached.

"Hold more flags and let the soldiers tie the captured horses to branches and run back and forth," Guo Tiancai ordered.

Chen Kui was very puzzled: "Brother Guo, why is this?"

Guo Tiancai chuckled and said, "Brother, you have never done business and don't understand the meaning behind it. For example, if we only have ten thousand taels of silver, but we have to pretend to have one hundred thousand taels of silver, when our opponent sees that we have a lot of capital, he will not

Dare to fight with us, it is a reason."

Chen Kui was very impressed, "Oh, Brother Guo, it seems that fighting and doing business are the same!"

"That's right, exactly the same, all for winning!"

The two of them were chatting, but on the Jinshan Acropolis, Zhang Guoxun was frightened. It is said that this man is a veteran who has killed countless people, so he should be brave. Otherwise, the more people he kills, the more he will know the fragility of life.

The more I fear death.

After the new defeat, Zhang Guoxun was already frightened. He had rich battlefield experience. When he saw the smoke and dust raised by the Ming army, there were at least 50,000 people. Hey, darling, how could he defeat this!

He frowned and shouted to the Jinshan guards: "You guard the east gate, and I guard the west gate."

After saying that, he walked towards the west gate.

The garrison was preparing supplies to defend the city, and his subordinates came to report that Zhang Guoxun escaped from the west gate with the Green Camp soldiers.

He was stunned, and after a while he howled: "Zhang Guoxun, you are a scoundrel who has no heirs!"

After scolding him, he wanted to escape with his flood troops, but it was too late. The Ming army came and was drowned in the rolling torrent.

Looking at the sun and moon flag planted on the Jinshan Acropolis, Guo Tiancai was elated and finally found the feeling of a famous general. He put his hands on his hips and shouted majestically to his subordinates: "Report to the commander quickly, our army has conquered Huating and Jinshan.

Drinking from Songjiang, pointing the sword at Hangzhou!"

??

In the Jinshanwei sea area, the Ming army had nearly 400 warships and 25,000 naval troops, ten ships in a team, three teams in a row, and a total of twelve formations, attacking the Qing army in a mighty manner.

Gai Yipeng and Huang Wu secretly complained that most of their elite troops were lost in Fujian. Although they withdrew to Zhejiang and replenished many new soldiers and warships, it seemed that there were 200 ships and more than 12,000 men. But

The combat experience of the new recruits is far less than that of the veterans, and many of the additional warships are converted merchant ships, which are not as useful as the previous warships. Moreover, even if the ships are strong, the guns are powerful, and the soldiers are excellent, like the old Fujian Navy in the past, it is not necessarily

The enemy can't defeat the Ming army which is twice as big as ours.

It would be impossible not to fight. Chen Jin, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, was famous for his bad temper. If he fled without a fight, Chen Duxian would not be able to spare himself. He could only fight for a while and then retreat, and he had an explanation for Chen Duxian.

Gai Yipeng was more thoughtful and placed his flagship at the back so that it would be easier to escape in a while.

Seeing the location of the Qing army's flagship, Sun Gui, the Marquis of Dinghai in the Ming Dynasty, burst into laughter. It seemed that Gai Yipeng was frightened by him and actually placed the flagship at the end!

He snorted coldly, "Gai Yipeng, Gai Yipeng, I think you are not worthy of being called Gai Yipeng, so it would be more appropriate to call you Gai Yichong! As the commander of an army, he actually hid his flagship at the end and was timid before fighting.

What a disgrace to the martial arts!"

Sun Gui ordered Huang Ying and Yang Chaodong to lead two formations of sixty ships on the edge of the two wings. These sixty ships were all light boats with many small sails and were as fast as flying. They were the fastest fleets in the Ming army;

Together with Zheng Bin, Yang Zheng, and Dai Jie, they led ten formations and more than 300 ships, like whales in the angry sea, ferociously swooping at the Qing fleet and swallowing it up in one gulp.

There are also some people in the Qing army who are not afraid of death, such as deputy general Huang Wu. He was originally a general under Zhu Chenggong. After being persuaded by Shi Lang to surrender, he killed many of his former colleagues. With no way out, he could only follow the Qing government to the end. So fight

Extremely brave and takes the lead in every battle.

Seeing the Ming army rushing towards him, Huang Wu showed no sign of weakness and led eighty ships into ten teams to attack the Ming army.

The fierce naval battle lasted for more than an hour. The Ming warships had many ships and cannons, and the soldiers were well-trained. They clearly had the upper hand, sinking and damaging Qing ships one after another.

Seeing that the time had come, Sun Gui hung up his command flag.

Huang Ying and Yang Chaodong saw the order flag and moved quickly from both wings to the rear of the Qing army, intending to penetrate into the rear of the Qing army and annihilate the Qing army.

Gai Yipeng was shocked when he saw it. He had fought many fierce battles with the Fujian Navy of the Ming Army and was very familiar with this roundabout tactic. This was how Shi Lang was surrounded and killed in Kinmen.

"Left full rudder," Gai Yipeng ordered. The helmsman pushed the rudder to the bottom and quickly turned around from left to back.

"The whole army retreats", the Qing army's flagship hoisted the command flag.

Gai Yipeng took the clearing ships in the rear formation and fled desperately towards Jinshan Guard. As for Huang Wu who was rushing at the front, Marshal Gai was really powerless and could only let Vice Admiral Huang resign himself to his fate.

Huang Wu was surrounded, and the warships around him were sunk.

More than a dozen bright ships surrounded his battleship.

"For the Ming Dynasty, fire the cannons," the young sailor roared and lit the cannonballs.

"The sea breeze is blowing, the waves are roaring. The loyal and brave soldiers are here, setting sail on the sea??", the sailors sang "Sea Wind Song" written by Sun Gui, the Marquis of Dinghai, during the Chongming naval battle.

The barrage of barrages quickly sent Huang Wu's warship to the bottom of the sea.

Gai Yipeng finally escaped to Jinshan Acropolis, but was surprised to find that the Ming army's sun and moon flag was planted on Jinshan Acropolis.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Jinshanwei Fort used artillery shells to welcome the Qing troops returning to Hong Kong.

"No," Gai Yipeng shouted, "Quickly, retreat to Hainingwei, Zhejiang."
