The battle ended by noon, and the Qing army was killed in a pitiful number, and the rest were almost all captured by the Ming army, and only a few escaped into the mountains and forests. But the fate of these Qing troops is estimated to be a dead word, even if the Ming army does not enter the mountains to suppress, they encounter those Li people who are on fire, and the result can be imagined.

The captives were temporarily detained and guarded by the 3,000 Quanzhou soldiers. The weapons have all been confiscated, and I am not afraid that they will not want to die. Chen Kai and Du Hui arrived at Longgong Bay with Zhongchong Town, and Hussar Town had also completed the control of the Qing cavalry, the cavalry was tied up, and the war horses were concentrated on the other side to graze, which was really in the hands.

The First World War captured a large number of weapons and baggage, especially the more than 200 war horses, which was really the biggest gain of this battle, and the Ming army relied on the mountain trend and the river to achieve a real sense of catching turtles in the urn, such a victory can even be said to be difficult to replicate.

When Chen Kai arrived here, the Qing army over there heard that Chen Kai was coming, and one by one they quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic, and calling it a capital crime.

Chen Kai didn't intend to slaughter them, no matter the north and the south of the Yangtze River, everywhere there are mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, manpower is the most valuable resource, this is the principle that Chen Kai has always believed in the most. At this moment, the detention here is only temporary, and it will naturally be released later, and there is no hurry for a while.

Seeing Li Jianjie, Chen Kai was very relieved about this horseman, and had already heard the news that this person had killed Liu Bolu earlier. Killing the main general of the other side, especially the military leader of Qiongzhou Mansion, will inevitably have an excellent impact on the next war. It's just that before he could do his best, Li Jianjie was already very excited, and Chen Kai naturally understood that this was a promise to him that was coming true step by step, which made Li Jianjie see hope.

"Wouldn't it be easier to get a trap ditch here?"

Pointing to the ground, Chen Kai said casually, but Li Jianjie was still a little too serious, and clearly pointed out some farther places to Chen Kai, where it would be better to set up a trap ditch.

"Well, you're a cavalryman, and you definitely have more combat experience than me."

Chen Kai smiled and patted Li Jianjie's shoulder, and the latter quickly relaxed. The fact that this battle was able to achieve the destruction of the Qing army was not a trap designed by Chen Kai alone as those Qing troops and even the vast majority of Ming troops thought.

In fact, the big idea of entering Qiongzhou Mansion was taken by Chen Kai, and since he did not intend to fight an offensive and defensive battle with the Qing army in Fucheng, he also decided on the general opinion of luring the Qing army.

Next, Lin Cha, a former Guangdong general soldier who had some understanding of Guangdong's geographical trend, suggested setting up an ambush in Lingshui County, because it was far enough away from Fucheng, and there was a geographical barrier from Niuling, whether it was the probability of leaking the real situation or the choice of ambush, it was more beneficial to the Ming army. When they arrived in Lingshui County, Du Hui and Li Jianjie quickly observed the surrounding geographical environment, one was responsible for the infantry and the other was responsible for the cavalry, and the specific plan for the ambush was also available.

As for Chen Kai, he just made up a story at the end, and then performed it in a good way, and as a result, Liu Bolu was really brought out by this group of "Great Song Dynasty Restoration Army".

"This is just the beginning, Qiongzhou has one capital, three states and ten counties, covering an area three times that of Chaozhou. This time, our army came by taking advantage of the east wind of the king of Xining to storm Zhaoqing, and it really did not have the effort when it swept away the Chaozhou group of bandits, and everything was based on a quick battle and a quick decision. ”

On the eve of arriving at Qiongzhou Mansion, Chen Kai had already set a strategy. At this moment, the battle has ended, and at noon, the army is burying the pot and cooking for the necessary rest, but Chen Kai's side still can't stop there.

"Prisoner, have you finished identifying?"

"If you return to the Fu army, it has been identified, and the last general will separate the soldiers and auxiliaries of Qiongzhou Town, not counting here, there are one thousand and forty-one soldiers, and more than two thousand three hundred auxiliary soldiers, of which three or four hundred are forcibly recruited from Wanzhou, and now all of them are detained in the place of war."

Cai Yuan hurried over, and Chen Kai had already expected the general situation. When asked, the Ming army general from Chaozhou immediately answered, and the reverence and admiration in his mouth were overflowing.

"Then according to the original plan, Deputy General Cai will escort you back to Lingshui County with a thousand Quanzhou soldiers to escort those soldiers. Before the army finished collecting the counties of Qiongzhou, it was a great achievement to see the captives and defend the city. ”

"The last general obeys!"

Lingshui County is the city of thousands of households in Nanshan built in the early Ming Dynasty, and the Lingshui Zhi County at that time moved to the county in the first year of orthodoxy, and it has continued.

Because it is a guard city, it takes into account more of a military role, and its city is not large, only around 344 zhang. However, its height has exceeded seven meters, plus there are many pheasant moats and shops, three doors are opened, and all of them have city towers, and there is a moat outside the city to surround it, which is enough for a mere use to face the internal Li rebellion and the possible threat of Nanyang pirates.

According to the order, after noon, Cai Yuan returned to Lingshui County with more than 1,000 Qing soldiers. Not giving them enough food is the most basic, Cai Yuan has thought too much about detaining prisoners since he received the assignment, and there will be no mistakes.

It was the herald cavalry of the Ming army who rushed back before Cai Yuan. Lincha's fleet is now on standby at the port of Lingshui County. The cavalry will bring back the report of the battle, and Lin Cha will also pull the anchor and set sail as soon as possible, and cooperate with the Ming infantry to advance by land and water, which can be regarded as a reverse completion of Liu Bolu's will.

However, while the plan was being implemented step by step, Chen Kai also sent back a copy of the information he had just discovered. It's just that Lin Cha read the information, but his expression became weird, and in the end, he couldn't hold it back, and laughed to himself.

"Wanzhou, the Tartar sailor is actually in Wanzhou. This is another king, the only difference is that this king is going to drown in the pool! ”

………………

Wanzhou, located in the east of Hainan Island, south of Lehui and northeast of Lingshui, is the Wanning of later generations.

In the fifth year of Tang Zhenguan, Wan'an was demolished in Pingchang County, which was the beginning of the establishment of the county. Subsequently, Wan'an County, Wan'an Prefecture, Wan'an Army, Wanning County, and Wan'an Army, the administrative level and title changed repeatedly, until the third year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, it was changed to Wanzhou, as a state-level administrative unit under the jurisdiction of Qiongzhou Prefecture.

Wanzhou Prefecture City was built in the Song Dynasty during the Daguan period, at first it was just a soil city, and later successive dynasties repeatedly added to it. Especially in the Ming Dynasty, it was built many times, and even in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, when the Ming Dynasty was about to be completely crushed by internal and external troubles, it also rebuilt the moon city and gatehouse of the east, west and south city gates.

At this time, the circumference of Wanzhou Prefecture City was 426 zhang, 2 zhang high, and 1 zhang and 5 feet wide. Open four gates, the east gate is facing the sun, the south gate town is south, the west gate is dehua, the north gate arches north, the east, west and south three gates are repaired with the moon city and the gatehouse. There was a moat dug outside the city, 497 zhang long, 2 zhang 5 feet wide, and 7 feet deep, and even a stone bridge was built over the river to connect the inside and outside.

If it is calculated, although this Wanzhou state city is not like Lingshui, it occupies the original city of thousands of households, but it is better in terms of scale, solidity and city defense building settings.

Within the state city, eight streets, two cities and nine lanes are criss-crossed, separating the important buildings such as the state government, the school palace, the city god temple, and the Guandi temple in the entire state city. In the meantime, the people of Wanzhou lived and multiplied in the era, whether it was the Han people or the mature Li, the people who were worried were nothing more than those who were going to come out and make trouble at every turn. On the contrary, in the past few years, there have been many changes compared with the previous two hundred years, but these changes are not very comfortable.

Qiongzhou is a capital, with a high degree of sinicization in the north and a large range, so its ruling center is naturally in the north. The north is in whose hands, and Qiongzhou is on which side. In recent years, the head of the city has changed to the Great King Banner, and Qiongzhou Mansion is a prefecture-level administrative unit under the Political Envoy Department of Guangzhou Chengxuan, and it is inevitable that it will change its ownership back and forth like the provincial capital. After a few times, until last year, after Li Chengdong anyway, the people here have once again kept their braids. However, a few days ago, the sudden change in Lingshui County in the south gave some talking points to the confusion here.

Wu Wenwen, the commander-in-chief of the naval division who assisted in the guard, went straight out of the east gate from Chaoyang Street, and his eyes swept past the location of the East Gate City. In the ears, it was nothing more than selling and bargaining, and there were a few sentences in which the voice was lowered, or there was no one around, but they were really discussing the matter of the "Great Song Dynasty Restoration Army" in Lingshui County.

He is not a Wanzhou general, and he can't control the affairs of the Wanzhou Prefecture, especially his identity as an assistant general, has always been the most embarrassing. Even if you don't talk about this, that strange thing in the world can always be heard even in his camp, as if it is a story in a play, eye-catching.

However, as the old Ming army that had surrendered to the Qing court, Wu Wenwen felt that he had to be a new annex in the eyes of those "Song people", which made him feel even more irritable. can have such an awareness, it has to be said that Peng Daotai is erudite and knowledgeable, even if he has never seen what the Great Song Dynasty looks like, but Xiucai does not go out and knows everything in the world, which is vividly manifested in people's bodies, and the people who attended the meeting earlier have all benefited a lot, and it is inevitable to bring some irritability to Wu Wenwen in it, and it is harmless.

The army has been ordered to stop discussing this matter, Wu Wenwen doesn't want his subordinates to be okay and put their positioning on the villain - this is not only because it will affect morale, but more importantly, once it is really set, it is better to give up on himself, if there is something unwilling to be a villain, and then slaughter him, the marshal, and raise troops anyway, it will not be beautiful.

Just entered the city, it was invited by the state government, and it was nothing more than the sergeants under his command harassing the people. If it were an ordinary ordinary person, the state government would not be able to make it difficult for him to be a military general when he used troops, even if he was just a general who assisted in the defense, and he didn't even have a serious dispatch. But this time, it was the soldiers under his command who stole the things of the local squire's house, and even beat the squire's nursing home when they were discovered, which has reached the point where the state government can't say anything about it.

There are still chaos in Lingshui County in the south that have not been calmed down, Zhizhou is afraid that those squires will be dissatisfied, and stand up to "respond to the Great Song Dynasty Wangshi", but he is also afraid that he will provoke him to make a rebellion, so he simply sent his cronies to come to talk about the project, which is nothing more than to make a play for those squires to see, calm down the emotions of the squires, and explain to each other to the peak.

Wu Wenwen didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he simply went to the state office, beat Zhizhou in front of those squires, and then ordered him to go back to discipline the soldiers. However, in view of the fact that "the officers and men in the army are about to fight in this war, they will inevitably have some psychological fluctuations", Zhizhou decided to allocate some chicken, duck and fish meat as a reward, which is also for Wu Wenwen to better cooperate with Liu Bolu in the next battle.

The drama is nothing more than that, but on the road, the more Wu Wenwen pondered, the more aggrieved he felt. He is also a count on the side of Daming, and the general of the sailor under Li Chengdong is indeed not as good as Du Yonghe, Huang Yingjie, Yang Dafu, Hao Shangjiu and others who were crowned earls anyway, but no matter how they say it, they also hold military power, where have they received such a wretch. The more he thinks about it, the more he is angry, but what can he do, is it difficult to jump back to be the Ming army, anyway, he doesn't really believe that the Ming army can turn the tables, instead of jumping around and falling into the reputation of a repeated villain, it is better to mix first on the side of the Qing army, and it is good to mix a rich man.

Mix, doesn't mean he can swallow this breath. There is no way to get out of those Qing court officials and squires, so they have to go back and get angry with the criminals. When he returned to the camp, chickens, ducks, fish, and meat were still on the way, and Wu Wenwen gathered troops in the barracks at the dock, and even ordered the reward to pull out the prisoners and punish them.

"Dashuai, it's really hard to live, so we will make this decision. For the sake of us, we have followed the handsome man for many years, before and after the saddle, just spare me and wait for a while. ”

The inmates who took the lead shouted bitterly, and the officers and non-commissioned officers present all looked sideways.

The Qing army was lowered again, such as those who were "capricious" people who entered the palace for the second time, and the Qing army would naturally not be trusted. When he was in Qiongshan County, Liu Bolu was particularly wary of them, military salaries, military rations, and even the purchase of weapons and the repair and replenishment of ships.

It is precisely because of this that last year, they immediately followed Du Yonghe to Guangzhou, even if they might meet Lin Cha and Chen Kai on the way, they had no intention of turning back. Without him, when he arrived in Guangzhou, Shang Kexi wanted to use them, and life would always be better, not to mention that if he worked hard to regain the trust of the old prince, let alone say it. At least, it's better than continuing like this in Qiongzhou.

However, he encountered Chen Qice's surprise attack on the road, and his amateur met his professional, and he was beaten to the ground. escaped from the pursuers by night, but also lost contact with Du Yonghe's fleet. Wu Wenwen pondered, if he went on, he would have to face Lin Cha and Chen Kai, and nine times out of ten it would be a dead end, so he simply gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and went directly north with the fleet, robbing a wave of people along the coast, and then turned around and returned to Qiongzhou Island.

It's not that they think of Liu Bolu's benefits, but they don't want to do it anyway, the world is so big, they really have nowhere to go except here. And when they returned to Qiongzhou Mansion, compared to the fleet that had shrunk by half before departure, they were even more untreated by the Qing army and the government, and it was normal to withhold, and the ships and soldiers were not replenished, but Liu Bolu got Shang Kexi's instructions and set up a water camp under Qiongzhou Town on his own, which was completely temporary for them.

In such a life, it is inevitable that the soldiers under his command will harass the people. On the side of Fucheng, two thousand green camps in Qiongzhou Town gathered, they didn't dare, but when they arrived in Wanzhou, even if Liu Bolu was actually in the direction of Lingshui, not far away, they couldn't bear it. There are a lot of things that have disturbed the people, but this time it was just a stab on the hornet's nest.

The soldiers begged for mercy, and all the soldiers under his command also begged Wu Wenwen for mercy. This is a little different from Wu Wenwen's script of first punishing the criminals, and then using the chicken, duck, fish and meat presented by Zhizhou to appease the soldiers under his command. But if you go in and out, you will go in and out, and Wu Wenwen couldn't suppress the fire earlier, so he immediately scolded those subordinates who begged for mercy, and directly asked the pro-soldiers to punish the criminals with rods, without any mercy.

Hit with a stick, those officers and soldiers who had begged for mercy for the prisoners earlier all had a close relationship. Today is these few, next time it may be them, such a day is really uncomfortable.

The number of cane reproaches was not much, and after a while, it was over, and Wu Wenwen reaffirmed the military discipline, and at this time, the chicken, duck, and fish sent by Zhizhou also arrived, and the time was just right. Everything is under control, even if there are some discrepancies, Wu Wenwen also used those chickens, ducks, fish and meat to appease the army's morale step by step. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a small boat in the distance came, and the Qing army on it rushed to the scene and directly called out a news that he couldn't believe.

"Big, handsome, the port gate is blocked by the Ming fleet, it's Lin Cha, Lin Cha!"

Wu Wenwen's sailors were in Wanzhou, but the specific ship berthing point was in Xiaohai, northeast of Wanzhou. It is an inland lagoon with an area of about 49 square kilometres. The lake is not very deep, the shallowest part is only one meter deep, and the deepest place is five or six meters, originally there were some fishing boats moored here, but Wu Wenwen's fleet was almost hit, and the rest of the draft was not very deep.

Now, however, this insurance has become a cage for him. Once the harbor gate of Xiaohai and the sea is blocked, it will be difficult for him to get out. What's more, the fleet blocked at the port gate is still the Ming army, the fleet of the Ming Hou Lincha, as soon as Wu Wenwen heard this name, the matter of "Great Song Dynasty Restoration Army" in his mind immediately jumped out, and even put a name directly out of his mouth.

"Chen Kai!"
