Huang Yingjie's troops, like Hao Shangjiu, originated from Li Chengdong's army that once swept Guangdong. Hao Shangjiu's troops defeated Zhang Jin in Chengxiang and took advantage of the situation to seize the county seat, and Huang Yingjie's troops would not be inferior to any extent. What's more, in addition to Huang Yingjie, if the situation expands further, Zhang Daocheng in Dongguan and even the feudal soldiers in Guangzhou will not just look at it. At that time, at most, it will be to cut the meat, which is better than being completely swallowed by the Ming army.

Su Li calculated clearly, but he also knew that compared to Huang Yingjie, the only one who really had a chance to arrive before the Ming army launched a formal siege on him was Chen Bin - although Chen Bin's troops were small, but the main general Wu Yong, the crown of Chaozhou, would be a military courage, and his subordinates were all trained by Zheng Chenggong back then, but they were a strong reinforcement.

Chen Kai suddenly came back at this time, and Su Li's worries deepened as the Ming army continued to approach. It was not that he did not think about withdrawing to Jieshiwei, but once Huilai was obtained by the Ming army, he might not be able to hold out until the reinforcements arrived, even if he held on to Jieshiwei. Especially in Yu, the sea is the world of the Ming army, and reinforcements can only come by land, and there will only be more delay on the way. When the reinforcements arrived, they didn't even have a chance to collect his body.

Time passed day by day, more and more banners of the Ming army, Zhongchong Town, Qianchong Town, Houchong Town, Houwei Town, Guarding Right Town, Nanao Town, Aid and Suppression Town, Tieqi Town, Chaohui Branch Guarding Road Standard Battalion, Eastern Guangdong General Standard Battalion, all of them, no matter how you look at it, it is the scale of nearly 10,000 troops. This is obviously something that Su Li can't fight alone, but fortunately, after receiving the request for help, Chen Bin understood the truth of the cold lips and teeth, so he tried his best to come to the aid of the Chaoyang Qing army, and finally rushed to the front of the Ming army and completed the rendezvous with him.

"Brother Su, how is it?"

"It's bad, it's bad."

These days, Su Li did not send troops to contact the Ming army, but the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was indeed stronger than his local bandits, several encounters, the scale was roughly the same, all ended in his defeat, and the time he concentrated the superior forces, the Ming army did not fight with him at all, relying on the advantage of the number of cavalry and fighting and retreating, the end was like a kraft candy.

The Qing army was led by the superior cavalry of the Ming army, which is ridiculous to say. But the problem is that Su Li is just a bandit, not an army sent by the Qing court, and even if it is the distribution of war horses, it is natural that he will not take care of him.

In addition to the two standard battalions, each town of the Ming army had a small number of cavalry, which together was much more than him. And the iron cavalry town is a cavalry unit with all cavalry, and the war horses respond back and forth in three directions, and in terms of mobility, even if it is a surprise attack from inside the city, these two legs are not comparable to the four legs. What's even worse is that there is an overwhelming advantage in the number of cavalry of the Ming army, and when they leave the city gate, they immediately become black-eyed, and the military situation is blocked from the sight of the city, and he does not dare to attack easily.

"What about Mr. Huang's side?"

"Brother Chen, don't worry, I have seen Mr. Huang, he is a general knowledge, and he will not sit idly by. As long as we hold on and hold on until the reinforcements arrive, it will be a great achievement! ”

Cheering up is a must. Fortunately, this statement seems to be acceptable to Chen Bin, or in other words, Huang Yingjie is the last straw in their hands, even if they are worried, they have to force them to believe that Huang Yingjie will definitely come to help.

The day after Chen Bin's arrival, the Ming army completed the encirclement of Huilai County. Surrounded by three missing one, the road to the west was released, making it clear that he didn't want to force the Qing army to break the net, leaving them a path to retreat to Jieshiwei, and then use cavalry to slowly grind them to death on the road.

Subsequently, Su Li was still hurriedly reinforcing the city defenses, and the banner of Chen Kai, the initiator of the conspiracy, soon appeared in the sequence of the Ming army, which was guarded by Chaohui and the Eastern Guangdong General Standard Battalion, which were located in the middle of the army.

"Brother Chen, what was your relationship with that Chen Kai before?"

Seeing Chen Kai's banner, Su Li couldn't help but have some associations, and immediately asked, Chen Bin was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "I did help him speak, but it was also because Shi Lang was too deceitful." Even if it shouldn't be said, if there was no Shi Lang, the younger brother might not be so eager to join the court. ”

Chen Bin and Shi Lang had a conflict, Su Li had heard about this matter somewhat, and when he heard this answer, he didn't respond, but the strange look on his face still made Chen Bin feel suspicious.

"The younger brother is a straight temper, and offending people is indispensable. To put it mildly, if Brother Su is suspicious of the younger brother, then the younger brother will go out of the city, set up another stockade, and defend the city with Brother Su in a corner......"

"Never like that, foolish brother never has that intention."

Su Li knew that Chen Bin was indeed a rectum, and he said whatever he wanted. Such a person, he has really seen a lot, and it is difficult to hide the thoughts in his heart. At this time, Chen Bin was quite angry, but Su Li was no longer suspicious, calmed down, and continued to organize defense, waiting for the day when reinforcements arrived.

The development of the situation did not surprise Su Li, Huang Yingjie received a request for help, and hurriedly sent a messenger to hurry up and inform him of the news of the departure of the reinforcements.

………………

Huang Yingjie, the chief soldier of Huizhou, was awarded the title of Fenghuabo in the Yongli Dynasty, and as soon as Shang Kexifu entered the boundary of Guangzhou Prefecture, Huang Yingjie, Chaohuidao Li Shilian, and Huizhou Governor Lin Zongjing, who were far away in Huizhou Mansion, were busy surrendering the Qing army, and even killed the Ming court's clan to flatter the Qing court.

The prefecture of Huizhou is located in the southwest of the entire prefecture, bordering Guangzhou. From Huilai County to Huizhou Fucheng, if you calculate the distance, it can be said to span the west and east. Su Li's messenger is his brother-in-law, knowing that it is a matter of life and death, he quickly whips up the horse, and on the road he is even more unreasonable to occupy the stagecoach, almost changing horses without changing people, and he rushed to Huang Yingjie for help in accordance with the appearance of eight hundred miles of urgency.

Huang Yingjie read the letter asking for help, and did not hesitate, hurriedly dispatched troops, and sent someone back to Huilai County to inform Su Li. At the same time, he even wrote a letter to Shang Kexi, conveying the information that Suli was attacked by the Ming army. It's just that he has some doubts about the tens of thousands of Haikou in Su Li's mouth and the bandit leader Chen Kai in command, so he doesn't explain anything more.

Guangzhou received the news, and Shang Kexi didn't pay too much attention to it. Huang Yingjie's questioning, after reading the document asking for help, also sprouted in Shang Kexi's mind.

exaggerated, and moved that Chen Kai out, so as to clear his name, Shang Kexi joined the army at the age of eighteen, such a method has long been strange. What's more, now the feudal soldiers of the two feudatories are either resting in Guangzhou City, or encircling and suppressing those small-scale Ming troops in western Guangdong, and they really can't spare their hands, so they simply let Huang Yingjie do his own thing.

Guangzhou to Huizhou, the military order was delivered, and Huang Yingjie, who had already been prepared, swore to go on the expedition. Just like Su Li's prediction, due to the strong strength of the Ming army at sea, he would never dare to go to the sea to help, so he had to take the land route. All the way to the east, over the Lotus Mountains, and then through Haifeng County, Jieshiwei into Huilai County. The whole journey is more than 400 miles, calculating the time, and it should still be able to arrive before the arrival of Chinese New Year's Eve in the sixth year of the eternal calendar.

"Marshal, if there is less water in Na Su Li's request for help than expected, if it is really the bandit leader Chen Kai who gathers heavy troops to encircle and suppress Su Li, and our army rushes deeper, is it ......?"

The cronies questioned the general, but Huang Yingjie just smiled, and then beckoned on the horse, letting the general come over, and he whispered: "Who told you that Lao Tzu went to save Su Lina?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the general was stunned, with the rich experience accumulated in the army for many years, he quickly figured out Huang Yingjie's actions after receiving this request for help.

"High, handsome, really smart!"
