The fall of the Jianghushan camp and the destruction of the main force of the Ming army in Jiangxi were a major loss of the anti-Qing movement. Chen Kai's main battlefields in these years have been in Fujian and Guangdong provinces, and these two provinces have also been the most affected. In Jiangxi, indirect, weak, and more out of reach of the whip.

However, Chen Kai gave the Ming army in Jiangxi a longer time to develop, and they dealt a greater blow to the Qing army in Jiangxi and Zhejiang provinces. On the eve of the fall of the Ming army in Jiangxi, Jie Chongxi also chose to dismiss more people, some of whom returned to their hometowns, while others retreated into the Wuyi Mountains to continue the struggle against the Qing army. Perhaps, compared with the three provincial capitals in history, Jiangxi's population loss is slighter.

However, the defeat of the Ming army in Jiangxi was like the Ming army in Guangdong at the end of the fourth year of Yongli and the Ming army in Zhejiang in the second half of the fifth year of Yongli, which all meant the destruction of the last large-scale friendly army in the neighboring provinces. The Fujian Ming army, which is entrenched in eastern Guangdong and southern Fujian, is bound to face a more severe situation in the coming days, which is even more inevitable.

Ma Jinbao came to Fujian's aid, and what he brought was not only the Jinhua town standard, but the elite drawn from the green battalion of the four prefectures of the Jinquyan Division, which he was responsible for, to assist Liu Guangbi in destroying the elite of the Ming army in Jiangxi.

This is a signal, and at the same time as receiving this news, Chen Kai received another signal, that is, after the Qing army struggled in Quanzhou for a period of time, it finally chose to abandon Quanzhou City and retreated directly to Xinghua Mansion.

Zheng Chenggong broke through the Jinjiang defense line and recovered the capital city of Quanzhou, the two county towns of Hui'an and Nan'an, and the city of Chongwu Qianhusuo, which was another victory on the surface, but Chen Kai was not happy at all, but ordered to seize all the time to repair and rebuild the Lufeng Twin Fortresses, and speed up the training progress of each town and battalion, which was completely a posture to make final preparations for the big war.

Chen Kai looked nervous here, and Zheng Chenggong was the same. Unlike the Qing army that chased after it when it gave up Tong'an earlier, this time Zheng Chenggong did not continue to press Xinghua Mansion after recovering two counties and one county in this prefecture, but Chen Bing Hui'an to prepare for the Qing army.

As expected, at the end of August, the Pingnan general Han army inlaid the red flag and fixed the mountain and the Han army inlaid the yellow flag and the real Liu Zhiyuan commander of the 4,000 Hangzhou garrison and eight banners arrived in Xinghua Fucheng.

Jin Li and Liu Zhiyuan are both famous generals of the Han Army Banner, not to mention their qualifications, and their ability to lead troops is also extremely strong, so the Qing court will rest assured that the two of them will lead the Hangzhou garrison Eight Banners to sit in the important land of Hangzhou to deter the southeast.

Chen Jin's death greatly touched the Manchu court. A governor in charge of two provinces, this is already the highest-ranking person to lose since the Qing court entered the customs, even if it was not long before they received the bad news from Guangxi, it was also inevitable that they would be greatly shocked. The order was issued, and the Eight Banners of Hangzhou garrison only left a Maile Zhangjing and Wu Ruyu to continue to watch the house, so they hurriedly poured out of the nest, went all the way south from Hangzhou, took Jinqu, crossed Xianxia Pass, first went straight to Fuzhou, and only hurried to Xinghua Mansion to join the Qing army who had retreated there after determining that Fuzhou was worry-free.

When the Eight Banners of the Hangzhou garrison arrived, the morale of the Qing army in Fujian was boosted. Almost at the same time, Ma Jinbao's troops followed Jin Li's heels into Fujian, and also hurried to Fuzhou, and then went to Xinghua Mansion to join the rest of the Qing army after determining that Fuzhou was blocked.

In the past few years, the Qing army in Fujian has been tossed out by the Ming army several times, and the whole army has been annihilated, and all departments have suffered losses to varying degrees. Jin Li and Liu Zhiyuan inspected the towns, and directly let the two battalions of Fubiao sit in the capital cities of Xinghua Mansion and Fuzhou Mansion respectively, in case the Ming army's naval division suddenly attacked the Qing army's rear road. Then he brought Yang Minggao's Fujian standard, Shi Fu's right road town mark and the troops brought by Ma Jinbao, gathered this 15,000 army, and went straight to Hui'an County, where the Ming army gathered the army.

Compared with the three green battalions on the Jin Li belt, only Feng Junrui's troops of the two battalions of Fubiao suffered greater losses, and their combat effectiveness was said to be stronger than that of the right town mark, which was rebuilt from top to bottom. But it is precisely because of this that he left Fubiao to guard the back road, which stems from the fact that Cai Xing and Zhang Yunfei's sailors are really not enough for Zheng Chenggong. As for the retreated Quanzhou town mark, the defenders of Tong'an, Nan'an, and Hui'an counties were completely left behind to guard the grain road, plus waiting for the main force of the Qing army to break through the Ming army and then follow to control the place, no one looked down on them.

As soon as Jin Li made a move, he was in a decisive battle posture, and he obviously knew the truth that there were not many soldiers, but they were fine. This truth is not only understood by him, but also by his opponent Zheng Chenggong. At this moment, all the elites who have been assembled in Hui'an to meet the battle are the elites of the Ming army who have been trained for many years, and most of the 28 battalions that have been trained recently are left in the prefectures and counties in the rear to assist in the defense.

"The Tartars want to use their territory to disperse our forces and at the same time delay time. Their goal has been achieved, but it is impossible for our army to play its cards exactly according to their ideas. ”

Zheng Chenggong stood up, and the nail leaves rattled. At the same time, the generals in the big tent also rose up when they heard the sound, and their expressions were agitated, and they were not inferior to their commanders in the slightest.

The next battle will be their first confrontation with the Eight Banners Army. Although it was only a pure Han army banner soldier, not a real Manchurian, the Eight Banners Army was famous, and it was also a big challenge for them.

But not as frightened as the generals in the city of Guangzhou when facing the feudal soldiers, so cowering in the city did not dare to speak lightly of the field, this Ming army has only been in force for a few years, but it has recovered a large area of lost territory from scratch. Even without Chen Kai's history, they single-handedly disabled almost all of the mobile forces of the Qing army in Fujian, forced Chen Jin, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, to death, and then realized the months-long siege of Zhangzhou. And now, Chen Kai's existence has further strengthened the overall strength of this Ming army, whether it is troops, combat effectiveness, or military reserves, the promotion is comprehensive.

This battle will surely be a battle that will determine the fate of the Fujian battlefield. Compared with the Qing army, the already weak Ming army could not lose, because as long as it was defeated, it would be the result of the abandonment of previous achievements, and it may even further affect the Guangdong battlefield where the situation is now improving.

However, in such an important battle, the generals of the Ming army rarely had much worry. This is the self-confidence they have accumulated from their successive victories in recent years, even if their opponents are no longer in the Green Camp, and this confidence will not be easily eroded as long as it is built.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our army has been fighting hard for many years, and only now can it have the potential to sweep through a province of Fujian. Although the captive division is strong, our army has a powerful naval division, a land division that uses new tactics, and even Chen joins the army and other figures to protect the army. This battle will surely end with the victory of the king's division, all of you work hard! ”
