Before Wang Jin arrived, Zheng Chenggong took the lead in holding all the key points, and when Wang Jin arrived in Daying, he couldn't find even a little defensive hole in this necessary road where the horse could reach.

In this regard, Wang Jin is like an ant on a hot pot, not only Zhangzhou and Quanzhou have a cold cut of lips and teeth, but more importantly, he sent troops to help this time, and there is no army of 15,000 Zhangchao and two prefectures under his command at all, some are just 500 cavalry plus 1,000 foot soldiers he brought from Zhangzhou City, and the rescue of the tenfold army that was blown out before was just a bluff!

"It is said that Zheng Zhilong's house originally planned to take this son of his to see Prince Duanzhong, but he was run away by this kid. I can see it today, this kid, I'm afraid that he will become a big trouble for the court in the future. ”

Zheng Chenggong succeeded Zheng Cai in the Longwu Dynasty to preside over the defense of the Jiangxi direction, and also fought with the Qing army, but it was only a few battles to this day. However, as far as Xie Yinglong's death and the current defense of these key areas are concerned, there is already the potential of a famous general. This person has a vendetta against the Qing court for killing his mother, and it will not be a good thing for the Qing court if he is stronger, and it can be said that the stronger Zheng Chenggong, the greater the threat to the Qing court.

In terms of heart, Wang Jin was able to be a rogue, and now he is not a diehard loyalist to the Qing court. But the Qing court has swept the world, and he has already stood in line, and he is on the front line in Fujian, which is where Zheng Chenggong's troops are reaching, this threat to the Qing court may be far away, but the threat to him is imminent.

After several attempts, Wang Jin never found any flaws, since he was bluffing, the troops brought to the front line at the moment were only under the banner of the vanguard. The follow-up troops will nominally arrive one after another, but this is not true, sooner or later Zheng Chenggong will see the flaws, and this day is getting closer and closer.

Wang Jin anxiously walked around the big tent, his corpse mountains and blood in the north, and the Qing army swept everywhere in the south, these experiences, after thinking about it, could not help him break through Zheng Chenggong's defense. This made him even more impatient, but at this time, a horse that was scattered brought back a man dressed as a mountain man, and Wang Jin saw the greed for wealth and rewards in the eyes of the man.

………………

The next day, Zheng Chenggong received new information, which showed that Wang Jin was mobilizing a large army, intending to attack Anping City with all his might, probably with the intention of encircling Wei and saving Zhao.

In this regard, Zheng Chenggong did not plan to make any further adjustments, because the Qing army came from Daying, and if he wanted to attack Anping, he had to pass through the key points that were easy to defend and difficult to attack that he assigned his generals to defend. And his task now is to buy more time for the siege war in Quanzhou.

Zheng Chenggong sent a messenger, and the generals were even more prepared when they received the order. However, after two days, the Qing army was always thundering and raining, and Zheng Chenggong, who was secretly saying bad in his heart, soon received a new report, that is, Wang Jin's department suddenly appeared under the city of Quanzhou, and defeated the Zuo Xianfeng Town, which had not healed from its wounds. And Zheng Hongkui had no choice but to withdraw when the enemy situation was unknown, and the siege of Quanzhou had been lifted by Wang Jin.

"According to the investigation, the captive division was not an army of 15,000, but only Wang Jin's troops and horses, about 1,000 people. They didn't know where to get the information, so they brought their own horses, crossed the pit by the cold water well at night, went out of Nan'an, and suddenly appeared under the city of Quanzhou. The army under the city was suddenly ......"

"Enough, Ben Shuai knows."

The siege of Quanzhou for more than a month, has already made the morale of the defenders drop greatly, although the city is not just around the corner, but the momentum of the Ming army to overwhelm the defenders has become, and now the Qing army reinforcements have arrived, even if Zheng Hongkui did not withdraw the army, the morale of the defenders has not been what it used to be, without that despair, with their two Ming army's clumsy siege technology, there will really be no chance of victory.

"Wang Jin is ......"

The great achievement was about to be completed, but there was a sudden change, and Zheng Chenggong was furious in his heart. However, after a while, Zheng Chenggong soon had a new strategy.

"Order, Hong Zheng and Yu Kuan led their troops and horses to set up an ambush in Qingshi Palace through the path, and Yang Cai and Guo Tai led their troops and horses to ambush in Juyuan. In addition, the department led by Zhong Kuangbo Zhang Jin to respond. ”

Quanzhou has come to naught, Zheng Chenggong's goal this time was immediately changed to Wang Jin, who can get rid of this big enemy, and the chance of winning in Zhangzhou in the future will be greater. The generals followed the order, but news came a few days ago that Wang Jin had passed there two days ago. After careful calculation, it turned out that Wang Jin had withdrawn his troops on the day he arrived in Quanzhou.

"It's really leaky."

Wang Jin's intentions, Zheng Chenggong can see clearly. Quanzhou is adjacent to Zhangzhou, Wang Jin aided Li, if Zheng Chenggong, or Zheng Cai of Xiamen took the opportunity to attack Zhangzhou, it would be more than worth the loss. The situation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty on the battlefield in Fujian prompted Wang Jin to come and go in a hurry, so fast and slow, with mental calculation and unintentional, Zheng Chenggong will only be slow step by step, and he will never find any opportunity.

"It's time to go back to South Australia, there's always a chance to say goodbye."

The army reunited in the Xunwei area, boarded the sea ship of Louchuan Town, and set sail. Compared with the time when he came, Zheng Chenggong's department swelled a lot - Ding Zhuang, who joined the army in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, collected and captured all kinds of materials and armaments, and there were not a few, so that Zheng Chenggong had to transfer a few large ships from Anping that originally went to sea trade to reluctantly load these harvests together.

This expedition, first defeated Haicheng, then repelled Zhao Guozuo, beheaded Yinglong, captured the stone village, and then besieged Quanzhou Yueyu, and finally was forced to give up under the reinforcements of the Qing army. In terms of the achievement of strategic goals, it is true that it has not achieved very good results, but in terms of the growth of this army, it has made a lot of money.

"When you go back, you should seize all the time to train new recruits for the next year." Speaking of this, Zheng Chenggong is already full of expectations for next year: "I hope that Chen has not been idle in the past few months, and this expedition has captured thousands of weapons, and there are seven or eight hundred pieces that have been distributed to the fourth uncle, but it is still far from enough to supplement the losses and expand the number." ”

On the sea boat, Zheng Chenggong thought about it like this, but it was only a flash. This way, compared to the time when it came, it still has to take a few more days. When they returned to Nanao, the civil and military officials on Nanao Island, who had received the order in advance, rushed to the pier to greet Wang Shi as they had seen them off before.

However, when Zheng Chenggong returned to his master, he first had to take Xie Yinglong's head to pay tribute to Emperor Longwu - although it was just a general, it was better than returning empty-handed.

After the memorial service, Zheng Chenggong also had to distribute the ownership and placement of materials and personnel, inspect the city defense of South Australia, and there were a few people who served under his command in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou who needed him to devote more energy to appease, and Chen Kai only exchanged a few words on the dock, and that's it.

In the morning, he returned to Nanao Island, but in the afternoon, Zheng Chenggong barely had time to review the official documents. Chen Bao has been guarding Nanao for many years, Nanao's city defense and sea patrols have done very well, tossing for a long time, a large number of personnel and materials can be regarded as an orderly merger of various places, Zheng Chenggong sat on the Taishi chair in the Tiger Festival Hall, while carefully reviewing the official documents in front of the case, while from time to time sent out inquiries to Chen Bao and Hong Xu.

"Nanao Town has recruited more than 700 soldiers?"

"That's true."

"Then transfer 300 people from Ding Zhuangli who was brought back this time, and make up the town of Nanao to 1,000 people, so as to ensure the safety of our army, a fundamental place."

"The last will obey."

“……”

"In the past few months of my expedition, how has my income been, but what is the problem?"

"Returning to the country's surname, the summer tax has been collected, and the collection of the autumn tax has begun. In addition, the sea trade on the Japanese side is basically run by Yongshengbo's people now, and our share is very small. However, the Chinese businessmen in Dayuan and Manila have already agreed on paperwork, but if they want to resume business contacts with Batavia, Pattani and other places, they still need more relationships and goods. ”

"I know this, our army doesn't have so many goods for the time being, let's do this first."

“……”

Zheng Chenggong went on an expedition for several months, and Chen Bao and Hong Xu put a lot of effort into the defense and operation of the fundamental place of South Australia. However, at this stage, the strength is weak, and the influence is also small and small, such as in maritime trade, Hong Xu was not originally the person in charge of such affairs in the Zheng Group, and there is actually so much he can do. Zheng Chenggong knew very well that the two of them were his confidants who he could rely on, and he was doing his best to strengthen the strength of this army these days, and he was just looking at the official documents and listening to their opinions by the way.

After asking a few questions, Zheng Chenggong quickly turned to several pieces of information sent back by the detailed work sent to Chaozhou. There is a delay in the content of these pieces of information, and one of them is no longer even moot. It's just that Zheng Chenggong saw some clues to this information, but he still needed more time to weigh the pros and cons, so he simply put it aside and continued to review those simpler reports.

Flipping through it, most of them are decent, and they are all within Zheng Chenggong's expectations. Zheng Chenggong nodded, and opened the last official document, this official document was submitted by the arsenal, he didn't think too much about it, but subconsciously opened it casually, but unexpectedly, the content inside really startled him.

"Where did you get so many weapons in your arsenal?!"
