Chapter 435: Lao Tzu is fighting half-crossing
Cantonese thieves? Ye Kai smiled, the names of the high-ranking officials and nobles of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were still so artistic.
Historically, Hongmen's double-flowered red stick, iron fist invincible.. Ahem.. Well, Mr. Zhongshan was called a Cantonese thief by them, and now this glorious title has fallen on his head.
However, although his own back army had already covered He Lin's eyes, Ye Kai was not ready to make any surprise attacks.
In fact, it can't be done, and Lin still has two hits, he has an underwater village behind the mountain, and the camp is very solid.
And the advantage of his side is actually not in the cavalry, but in the more guns and more artillery, and it is the best choice to gnaw it with dignity, and there is no need to risk any surprise attacks.
So, when the brown gold sun and moon flag symbolizing Ye Kai and the red gold sun and moon flag of the revival army appeared, He Lin's heart also relaxed.
The two groups of people and horses were not very wide apart, but the Beijiang River, which was very fast, confronted each other, and He Lin seemed to definitely not cross the river to attack, and Ye Kai did not have this idea for the time being.
"The Qing army on the opposite side must be waiting for us to cross the river, he has to come and attack half-crossing, King Ming, let's just come and not cross the river, isn't it just consumption, we only have more than 30,000 people, at least eighty or ninety thousand on the opposite side, there are still our people on the water-skiing mountain, his grain and grass transportation is inconvenient, it depends on who can consume whom?"
Han Er's command of the Southern Army, Ye Kai's brother-in-law, Fu Anbo said forcefully.
The so-called Southern Army of the Han Er Xiaojie Army is actually the original Quang Nam Army of Nguyen Phuc Anh, these troops are also trained with Western-style training, and the person in charge of training is still Ye Kai's current Brigadier General and Deputy Commander of the Second Division, the Frenchman Olivier.
Therefore, Ye Kai selected 4,000 elites from the Guangnan Army and established the Southern Army of the Han'er Xiaojie Army, and the others either became garrisons to maintain local law and order, or were directly disbanded.
"But we can't afford it, King Ming only occupies the surroundings of Guangzhou now, and Guangzhou's grain storage is not much, we still have to rely on transportation from Guang'an, which is quite troublesome, it is better for us to use cavalry to cover and build a pontoon bridge to cross the river in a wide place downstream!"
Shaking his head against Chen Dali, the commander of the Northern Army of the Han Er Xiaojie Army, he now only has the title of a viscount, so he doesn't agree with the confrontation, if the confrontation continues, when will he be able to make meritorious contributions?
This viscount sounds like a title, but it is a title without a title, because in the noble system of King Ming, only the titles above the earl are named, and the hometown of the knight is generally selected.
Only when they reach the earl or above, will there be a land and a mansion, and their children can enter the Imperial City Primary School and become classmates with the future King Ming, so in Ye Kai, the viscount and the baron can actually only be called a lord, with a little annuity, it sounds good, the real nobleman still has to start from the earl.
"No! The Beijiang River is turbulent, and there are not many places where we can build a pontoon bridge, so we carry so much baggage, when will we be able to pass? ”
Wu Wenyong shook his head, now that the establishment of the Three Towns Soldiers has disappeared, Pan Qide became the Guang'an General Soldier, and he took the elite of the Three Towns Soldiers to become the Fourth Division of the Second Army in the Fuxing Army.
Each has different opinions and has its own reasoning, Ye Kai looked at Huang Laosi, who had not spoken.
"Fourth, you are the head of the martial arts, tell me what you think!"
Huang Laosi touched his nose unconsciously, not because of anything else, but because, why does this Ming King still call him Lao Si, just don't want to call him by his name?
Today's Huang Lao Sikuo is no longer the poor Tanjia fisherman, he is the dignified commander of the First Division of the Fuxing Army, with the rank of lieutenant general, and Mingdehou.
In addition to him, Li Ashui was named Heyihou, which is also Ye Kai to set an example for the young guards, and Li Ashui was only named by his righteous son, so Huang Laosi is a well-deserved first military general under King Ming.
It's all Hou Ye, of course you can't use the name Huang Laosi, so Huang Laosi's wife, the orphan of the righteous army who has read a few books, Li Ashui's cousin, thought of a name for him.
King Ming is known as the King of Renaissance, then you are King Ming's right-hand man, just choose one from the word Revival!
Uh-huh.. Ahem!
So Huang Laosi happily named himself Huang Xing, and specially expressed to Ye Kai that he hoped that Ye Kai would no longer call him Lao Si, but call him Huang Xing or Ah Xing.
Ye Kai, who was dumbfounded, said at the time, 'Why don't you just call it Keqiang?' ’
Unexpectedly, Huang Laosi bowed and thanked him with joy, shouting thank you to King Ming for giving him the word, and since that day on, he has introduced it to people, saying that his name is Huang Xingzi Keqiang, and the word is given by King Ming.
Uh, anyway, Ye Kai is only going to continue to call him Huang Laosi, it's outrageous for your mother!
"I suggest, didn't the Qing army want to attack us halfway? I will let him cross the river halfway, and I will personally lead the first regiment of the first division to cross the river, as long as we resist, the brother troops behind can cross the river directly by boat, and we will fight down! ”
Sure enough, it's Huang Laosi, ruthless and confident enough!
"Huang Hou Ye is so bold! King! Now the gentry in Guangzhou and even in Liangguang are stretching their necks and waiting, if His Royal Highness can fight the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the gentry will definitely join one after another.
If it can't be fought, or the war is delayed, then the people's hearts will be unpredictable, and it is the ministers who agree with Huang Houye's plan, and it is time for the gentry of Liangguang to see the elite of the Ming Wang's army! ”
He Yuanshi arched his hand and praised loudly, he didn't lie, the current gentry of Liangguang and even Fujian are watching, if Ye Kai can fight more with less and quickly defeat the Manchu army, it means that he does have the qualifications to win the world, and those who bet on the treasure can bet.
If the war is prolonged and the fighting drags on and is extremely hard, these people will definitely continue to wait and see.
After all, the Manchu Qing Dynasty ruled the world for one hundred and fifty years and owned the whole of China, although there was some recession, but it was far from the end of the dynasty.
And Ye Kai's basic plate is also Guang'an, Xinzhou, Lanfang or something, the gentry of Liangguang didn't look at it as a serious territory at all.
In contrast, the capital of the Manchu Qing is much thicker than Ye Kai, if Ye Kai can quickly defeat He Lin, it means that he is much stronger than the Manchu Qing and has a future.
If he fights extremely hard, it proves that he is stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty, occupying half of the country, and the top of the sky is a situation that occupies the two broads, and the gentry in the world are likely not to bet.
"Father, the first rifle regiment also asked to fight, let's let the Qing army attack halfway, let's take the opportunity to defeat them!"
Li Ashui also stood up to ask for battle, and everyone said that his harmony with Yihou was obtained by calling his father.
inherited the remnants of his father Li Acai and uncle Li Aji, and relied on being considered a righteous son by King Ming, otherwise it would never have climbed to the second high position of Wuchen at the age of twenty-two or three, which was higher than Chen Wenqi and a French brave general.
Therefore, Li Ashui also held his breath, he must fight an extremely beautiful battle, make a great contribution, and make all those who question him shut up!
Ye Kai nodded with satisfaction, this is the so-called deep win of my heart, it is worthy of the two generals he relies on the most!
Confrontation What confrontation? Although the revival army under his command now has a total of 20,000 people, Chen Wenqi also brought more than 7,000 people in Guangxi, and only 13,000 here, but this is 13,000 elite soldiers without water!
In feudal dynasties like the Manchu Qing Dynasty and even the Ming Dynasty, it is generally possible to rely on this elite and pull up an army with a combat strength of more than 100,000, so the revival army looks like it is not a small number, but its combat effectiveness is definitely not low.
And the elite of the revival army, the 1,100 people of the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division, and the 1,700 people of the Young Guards, Ye Kai dared to say that even if they were placed under the command of the emperor, they were also the elite of the top ranking.
There are 2,800 people in the country, even if the Manchu Qing Dynasty is halfway across and attacked?
Just those banner men and green battalion soldiers with a mix of hot and cold weapons, can they eat his little 3,000 elites with complete cavalry artillery, infantry artillery coordination, and cavalry artillery coordination?
No way!
"I've made up my mind! Tomorrow and the morning are preparing to cross the river, with the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division as the main force, the Young Guards forming a 600-strong back army, and the 1,100-strong 1,000-strong rifle regiment to seize the left position of the river, and the rest of the divisions and regiments to collect boats and prepare to forcibly cross the river! ”
