Reinforcements, finally here.

Zhen Guogong's reinforcements are finally here!

Because of the entire Yixing Dynasty, I am afraid that only Zhenguo Gong has a few musketeers.

I haven't been forgotten yet.

This point, for Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin, is more important than life and death at this time.

"The Duke of Zhenguo has sent troops to reinforce us!" Under the shouting of the two of them, the Ming soldiers raised their morale like divine help and began to counterattack.

The Qing army was taken by surprise.

The Qing army began to retreat.

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin looked back, only to find that reinforcements did come, but not as they imagined.

The reinforcements were only a few hundred Liao Liao, and the sound of horses' hooves heard before was only made by dozens of cavalry.

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin were stunned.

……。

This support soldier is naturally the three hundred musketeers and thirty-six cavalry brought by Qian Qiaogong and Shen Zhiyuan, who plans to do something big to show Wu Zheng and Wu Xiaomei.

They came late, no wonder Qian Qiaogong and Shen Zhiyuan, not to mention the long distance, they had to take a boat for three days.

They did their best.

If it weren't for the fact that the soldiers were from the south, they were afraid of three days of sea turbulence, which would have temporarily disabled these hundreds of people.

Fortunately, Jiang Quanyi, Wang Yilin and more than 1,000 remnants were finally saved.

But the bad thing is that even they are surrounded by the Qing army.

Yes, they can still escape, after all, the ship is still there.

The question is, how did more than a thousand people escape?

"What should I do?" Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin glared at Qian Qiaogong and Shen Zhiyuan and asked.

"Easy to do!" Shen Zhiyuan replied with some excitement, "We are not here to save you back to Jiangnan, but to join you and fight a piece of the sky in Jiangbei." ”

"It's a madman!" Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin looked at each other, and in the eyes of the other party, they both found these five words.

In fact, they themselves are crazy enough, but the two of them think that they are normal people compared to the person in front of them.

Jiang Quanyi looked at his old boss Qian Qiaogong with a puzzled look, Qian Qiaogong was the deputy commander of Yizhen Jingwei before.

No, Qian Qiaogong actually nodded and said: "Lord Shen is right, the general has appointed Lord Shen as the commander of the Jiangbei Righteous Army, and I am the deputy marshal, let us lead you to stand in Jiangbei and make a plan for our army's Northern Expedition in the future!" ”

This is obviously a false order, full of nonsense.

But Jiang Quanyi believed it, and even Wang Yilin believed it.

Let's not mention that Qian Qiaogong is Wu Zheng's brother-in-law, and Shen Zhiyuan is Wu Zheng's descendant.

These two people have the same kiss, and this matter will not be fake.

But the problem is that all the people in front of him add up to more than 2,000, and except for these 300 musketeers and dozens of cavalry, they are all tired divisions, of which the wounded account for two or three percent.

How could such an army break through?

Not to mention to gain a foothold in the encirclement of tens of thousands of Qing troops.

It's a fool's dream.

Wang Yilin blinked and said, "Lord Shen, there should be follow-up reinforcements from Zhenguo Gong, right?" ”

Qian Qiaogong just wanted to speak, wanting to answer Wang Yilin's question in a more tactful tone.

But Shen Zhiyuan nodded very dryly: "That's right, the imperial court has already designated your department as a rebel, how can the general openly accept you?" It's just that the general can't bear to see your troops destroyed by the hands of the Tartars, so he sent us here to lead you to fight a piece of the sky in Jiangbei. ”

Wang Yilin looked at this self-confident young man bitterly, and wanted to cry, "Dare to ask Lord Shen, how much grain, grass and supplies did you bring?" ”

Shen Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, "Are you short of food and grass supplies?" …… I'm sorry, I really didn't expect this to come in a hurry...... Still, I brought a boatload of muskets and ammunition. ”

Even Jiang Quanyi wanted to cry now, such a coach, oh my God, let me throw myself into the sea.

Qian Qiaogong coughed dryly, "Let's not talk about these things first, the most important thing in front of me is to get out of the encirclement of the Qing army first." ”

This is true, and it is indeed a veteran with experience in leading soldiers.

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin didn't want to pay attention to Shen Zhiyuan anymore, they focused their eyes on Qian Qiaogong.

Shen Zhiyuan was left out in the cold and was very unwilling, he glared at Qian Qiaogong, and said loudly: "In my commander's opinion, the Qing army encircles our army from the west and northwest, and the East China Sea is the sea, so our army has to go up the river from the north." ”

No one paid any attention to him.

Shen Zhiyuan continued to talk to himself, "This commander brought a total of five boats, the Qing army has no sailors, as long as our army marches along the coast, at least five or six hundred people can survive, and the whole army will not be wiped out." ”

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin's eyes began to shift.

Shen Zhiyuan was a little proud, "The most important thing is that we who stand in the land of immortality, as long as we are within the range of the musket, we will be safe, at least, before the Qing army mobilizes heavy troops." ”

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin's eyes began to reveal kindness.

"If you can't fight, you will throw yourself into the sea, the Qing army is not good at water, and they are afraid of musket shooting, they dare not go into the water to chase, so our army is even more safe." Shen Zhiyuan was very proud.

Wang Yilin asked tentatively: "But our army has no food and grass supply, what should I do?" ”

Shen Zhiyuan's face gradually stiffened, and he glared at Wang Yilin, his perception of this person immediately dropped to the minimum, this guy can't speak, which pot can't be opened!

"Grain and grass...... It's easy to do, if there is no food, we will eat fish, there are many fish in the sea, and the sailors and soldiers are all good at the water, so they eat on the spot! ”

The crowd was speechless, but there seemed to be some truth in what they said, and they would not starve to death.

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin finally chose to give up Shen Zhiyuan and set their sights on Qian Qiaogong.

Qian Qiaogong said with a straight face: "I think what Lord Shen said is not unreasonable, first break out, and then find a way to raise grain and grass." ”

Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin glanced at each other and agreed.

At this time, the Qing army began to attack again.

It's just that the scale of this time is obviously much larger than the previous one, and the Qing army, after knowing that the Ming army is coming for reinforcements, finally no longer has the idea of preserving strength and reducing casualties, and they began to deploy the main force to attack, because it is a death order from the Qing court to exterminate this group of "annoying flies".

Shen Zhiyuan gave his first order in charge of this army - flee.

Escape to the sea!

The cavalry fled first, the musketeers were second, and Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin were behind.

This order almost made Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin turn their faces immediately.

Fortunately, Qian Qiaogong firmly stood on Shen Zhiyuan's side, no matter what, his official position could suppress Jiang Quanyi.

As a result, Shen Zhiyuan's order was quickly executed.

The ship brought by Shen Zhiyuan was a cargo ship, not a war ship, with a flat bottom, suitable for inland rivers and offshore ships, that is, merchant ships transported along the coastline.

This type of boat is not picky about the waterline, and can get infinitely close to the shore wherever there is water.

After the musketeers retreated, they formed a musket formation based on five boats.

In the water, on the side of the ship, on the boat, three heights, three rows of firing lines.

The Qing army did not have cavalry, and if there were, Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin's troops would not be able to reach Haimen, and they would have been gone.
