On the flagship of the Ming army's naval division, Zheng Chenggong stood on the deck, letting the river breeze blow his cheeks.

Came back, he killed again.

I thought that it would take a few years of preparation before there would be another battle, but I never thought it would come so quickly.

When passing through Chongming Island, Zheng Chenggong did not intend to attack.

Ma Fengzhi, the commander of Susong Town, is his old acquaintance. Zheng Chenggong, a general of the Qing army, knows a lot about it. Ma Fengzhi has a cunning personality and does not easily show his true emotions. However, judging from the last time Zheng Chenggong attacked Nanjing, Ma Fengzhi took the initiative to show goodwill and said that he would watch from the sidelines, Zheng Chenggong judged that he would not be loyal to the Qing court.

Although Ma Fengzhi did not take the initiative to contact Zheng Chenggong this time, Zheng Chenggong still felt that Ma Fengzhi would not wade into this troubled water.

As long as Zheng Chenggong doesn't force Ma Fengzhi, Ma Fengzhi will not trouble Zheng Chenggong.

This is naturally good news for the Ming army.

Zheng Chenggong only needs to concentrate on dealing with Lang Tingzuo, the governor of Liangjiang, the governor of Jiangnan, and Shi Lang, the commander of the navy.

Human energy is limited, and it is better to deal with two or three people than four or five.

"Damu, this time we have to learn a lesson, and we can't leave any more regrets."

The last battle of Nanjing was defeated, and the most painful person was not Zheng Chenggong, but Zhang Huangyan.

They were so close to victory that they could touch the walls of Nanjing, the sacred trees of Xiaoling, the waters of Xuanwu Lake...

It's so painful to get and lose it right away.

"Don't worry, Brother Cangshui, I have made a plan this time, and there will be no more accidents."

Zheng Chenggong swore and said: "Zhenjiang is not far ahead. As long as we lay down Zhenjiang, we can go straight to Jinling. No matter how much Guan Allegiance and Lang Tingzuo try to talk about this time, I won't believe it. I only have Jinling in my eyes! ”

Zhang Huangyan nodded.

It would have been nice to have done this earlier.

The advantage of the Ming army is that the ships are strong and the artillery is sharp, and it can not fall behind in the battle.

Once it drags on for a long time, the advantage of elite soldiers will be lost.

And the Qing army could use the numerical advantage to drag down the Ming army.

For the Ming army, it must be fast, the faster the better, and the Qing army must not be given a chance to react.

"The last time I attacked Zhenjiang, it was effortless, and I think that this time the Dongyu will definitely deploy heavy troops in Zhenjiang. Damu, we must not take it lightly. ”

Zheng Chenggong nodded when he heard this.

The last time they attacked Nanjing, it was very sudden, they took the sea route from Fujian, thousands of miles away, all the way to the mouth of the Yangtze River, and marched along the river to the Yellow Dragon.

In this case, it is normal that Zhenjiang is not guarded.

However, after this war, the Qing army was on guard, and it was difficult to reproduce the victory in Zhenjiang.

Zhenjiang is the gateway to Nanjing, and Lang Tingzuo will definitely defend Zhenjiang at all costs.

As for the Ming army, there is nothing to keep. Only by taking Zhenjiang can Nanjing be quickly threatened.

Zhenjiang will be the key point of contention between the two sides, and those who win Zhenjiang will take the initiative and have an advantage in this offensive and defensive battle.

Before attacking Nanjing this time, Zheng Chenggong also kept an eye on it, and he sent his henchman Gan Hui to lead a small army to attack and harass along the coast of Ningbo, just to attract Shi Lang's attention.

As long as Shi Lang is contained, Zheng Chenggong will have plenty of time to capture Zhenjiang.

This time, he dispatched more than 500 warships, which can be said to have taken out all his family funds, in order to take Nanjing and shake the world.

Nanjing is not only a city, but also the first important town in the south of the Yangtze River, and also the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

If Nanjing can be recovered, even if it is only for a period of time, it will be a matter worth celebrating for the anti-Qing forces in the world.

...

...

In Zhenjiang City, Jiangnan Admiral Guan was loyal to his hands and kept pacing.

He had just received an urgent report that the Ming thieves Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan led more than 100,000 people and more than 500 naval warships to drive straight along the Yangtze River, as if they were in a no-man's land.

They came straight to Zhenjiang, and the momentum was even stronger than last time!

"This official wants to impeach Ma Fengzhi!"

Guan Xiaozhong's beard trembled with anger, and his lungs were about to explode.

This Ma Fengzhi, as the governor of Su Song, was responsible for guarding Chongming, and he repeatedly put Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan in.

If it can be said that it was an accident once, it is so much twice in a row, which makes people wonder if Ma Fengzhi secretly reached any agreement with Zheng Chenggong.

Tong Zheng's crime is enough to behead Ma Fengzhi, if he hadn't been so angry that he stomped his feet, Guan Xiaozhong would not have thought of impeaching Ma Fengzhi for this crime.

"You fucking Tong Zheng, throw all the pressure on Lao Tzu's side, Lao Tzu is your ancestor!"

Angry words are angry words, but scolding alone can't stop Zheng Chenggong's invincible sailor.

Guan Xiaozhong was well aware of the strength of Zheng Chenggong's army, and a fierce battle was inevitable.

"Someone, pass on the Admiral's order, and all the soldiers are ready to fight the enemy. From now on, the whole city of Zhenjiang will be under martial law, and those who dare to walk around the streets without authorization will be killed. ”

"Yes!"

"Wait!"

"What else does the Admiral command?"

"Immediately send someone to Jiangning City to ask the Governor for help!"

Guan Xiaozhong finished speaking, and sat down in his chair.

He and Lang Tingzuo can be said to be wearing a pair of pants, and he naturally knows very well how many troops there are in Jiangning City now.

But even a few thousand Green Battalion soldiers are useful, and it's better than him fighting alone.

Taking a step back, if Zhenjiang can't hold it, Nanjing will definitely not be able to hold it either.

This time, Zheng Chenggong will definitely not fall for the trick again.

So he meant to transfer all the troops in Jiangning City to Zhenjiang. He believed that Lang Tingzo would be able to understand this truth.

As for the garrisons of the other provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, they could not arrive in a short time, and they could not quench their thirst from far away, so they could not count on allegiance.

...

...

"Folks, the country surnamed Ye is back again!"

"Master Wang is back again!"

"The master of the Ming Dynasty is here, everyone is ready to eat and entertain the soldiers!"

In the water villages outside Zhenjiang City, some young people spared no effort to shout.

They also just got the news and immediately rushed to tell each other as soon as possible.

Under the tyrannical rule of the Eastern Captives, they lived like ants and had no dignity to speak of.

They are fed up with this kind of precarious life.

Now it's okay, the country surnamed Ye is back!

If you can take advantage of this wind to expel the Dongyu and recover Zhenjiang and even Nanjing, won't everyone's good days come?

The country's surname and soldiers fought bloodily to kill the enemy and serve the country, although they couldn't help much in this regard, but it was still okay to send some food and wine.

They've figured it out now.

No matter how the Ming court is, it is also the court of the Han people themselves. And the Manchus were alien to the masters, and they did not recognize them from the bottom of their hearts.

Instead of being a slave of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it is better to be a subject of the Ming Dynasty, at least the children will not be inferior from birth!

"Everyone is ready, be enthusiastic, don't chill the hearts of the soldiers!"
