With the support of the two battalion officers, coupled with the authorization of Ruan Lizhen and Liu Ruyi, Wang Puxiang immediately decided to attack Yanziji with the main force.

Now the total number of Yue Ming troops entering the city is less than 500, and a Liu Yingguan and his 80 cavalry were left in Nanjing City by him to cooperate with Ruan Lizhen and Liu Ruye's rebel army to take over Nanjing City.

Wang Puxiang personally led 300 cavalry and 200 righteous troops with strong combat effectiveness as the main force to attack Yanziji, and there was a land battalion officer behind him leading 50 cavalry of the Yue Ming Army and 400 volunteers to follow.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Lu Yingguan is weak and it seems that they can only wave the flag and shout, Wang Puxiang has high hopes for the Lu Yingguan's troops, not only hoping that he can contain the prisoners but also play a role in turning the tide of the battle at a critical moment.

When Wang Puxiang's department just came out of the city gate, there happened to be a team of cavalry of the Yue Ming army to support, although there were only forty cavalry, but it still boosted the morale of the Ming army: "God help me, don't want to cross the river with a soldier and a pawn today!"

Although the Qing army was already desperately crossing the river, the opportunity was in front of the Ming army, and Wang Puxiang soon discovered that hundreds of Qing troops were fleeing towards Yanziji, and he immediately led the Mabu army to attack.

For the Qing army desperately fleeing towards Yanziji, Wang Puxiang's "army" made them feel that they were missing two legs, and the Ming army had hundreds of elite cavalry and thousands of equally elite infantry, and often the cavalry had already broken up as soon as they rushed through the Qing army.

And the reason why Wang Puxiang brought the army battalion officer and his troops was to borrow the army battalion officer to strengthen the momentum, and he handed over these scattered Qing troops to the army battalion officer to solve the problem.

The army battalion officer also did a very good job in this regard, he led the cavalry and the rebel army to replenish the strength of the prisoners while capturing the prisoners, although the temporarily replenished prisoners often escaped a quarter or even a third without taking a few steps, but the strength of the army battalion officers continued to grow, and soon the snowballing force expanded to nearly a thousand people.

And Wang Puxiang continued to play the role of a sword, while Lu Yingguan became the hammer of the decisive victory.

Although the enemy on the opposite side not only included the Green Battalion and the New Annexed Army, but also Geng Zhongming, Kong Youde's subordinates, and even the real Eight Banners Army and the Mongolian soldiers of the Outer Domain, when they saw the so-called army of Wang Puxiang and Lu Yingguan rushing in, they all ran towards Yanziji, and they really felt that they couldn't run, so they ran to both sides of the avenue.

The joint offensive of Wang Puxiang and Lu Yingguan attracted more support, including both the regular army of the Vietnamese Ming army and the rebel army of the spontaneous uprising, with a maximum of two or three hundred people and a minimum of twenty or thirty people, but it formed a tidal wave of offensive with limited troops.

The current Yanziji Pier has really become a mess of porridge.

Although the total strength of the regular army of the Vietnamese Ming army engaged in the attack did not exceed 600 people, even if the rebels, righteous divisions and Qing prisoners who participated in the battle were included, the total number of people definitely did not exceed 2,000.

As long as the Qing army sends a general to launch a counteroffensive, Wang Puxiang's counteroffensive can be completely crushed, and even Wang Puxiang's small army can be completely annihilated.

But now at the Yanziji wharf, you will feel that at least tens of thousands of Yue Ming troops have launched a centripetal offensive towards Yanziji, everywhere there are gunshots, the sound of fighting, the sound of horses' hooves, everywhere are the remnants of the defeated defeated generals, and there is no foothold on the trestle connecting the ferry, and from time to time someone is pushed down the river.

The situation on the ferry was even worse, although Duoduo and Hauge controlled many ferries, but there were not enough sailors and boatmen, and Liu Liangzuo was coerced and scattered when he attacked the Yanziji ferry, so that even if the boat left the river bank, it was only moving at a very slow speed, and even went directly downstream in circles.

The anxious Qing army on the shore rushed forward with a mission, but the really anxious Qing army generals like Duoduo, Haoge, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming did not dare to order the boat to sail even if they got on the ferry, after all, most of the officers and soldiers under their command were still on the shore.

This is the capital of their lives, and if they leave all their troops in Jiangnan, the regent and the court may have a thousand excuses to deal with them.

Duoduo is even more reluctant to leave so many Niu Lu to cross north in a hurry, after all, he is most responsible for the defeat of Jiangnan this time, if all the troops are lost, even if the regent is his half-brother, he can't protect him!

Although he was already on the ferry, he still shouted loudly: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, let the various Niu Lu board the boat as soon as possible, and let the Eight Banners go first!"

Although "let the Eight Banners go first" is an unspoken rule since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, this unspoken rule cannot be made public, and it is impossible for a big man like Duoduo to say this kind of thing in public, but now Duoduo is already red-eyed.

But the current situation is already in danger, not to mention that Duoduo said "let the Eight Banners go first", even if the Shunzhi Emperor and the regent ordered it, there was no way to make the Qing army running in front make a way.

Moreover, so many Qing troops crowded into the ferry, which naturally caused greater contradictions, and the boat, which could only carry 50 people, was now loaded with at least 100 or even 150 people, and some people were crowded into the boat and even fell off their horses from time to time.

And the footsteps of the Yue Ming army seem to be getting closer and closer.

For the Ming army, it was completely unexpected to capture Nanjing so quickly and force the Qing army into a desperate situation, and most generals believed that the capture of Nanjing would be a rather difficult battle, and might even use red-coated artillery for a protracted siege.

So when he heard that Wang Puxiang had taken Nanjing City and pursued Yanziji with only one battalion of two hundred cavalry teams, even Zhou Zhisheng felt incredible: "Wang Puxiang is lying about the military situation, right?" ”

Wang Puxiang was willing to bear the charge of "killing the king" without hesitation, and was naturally a bold figure, so General Zhou Zhisheng was suspicious, but he still decided to launch a full-scale attack: "From now on, the whole army will obey Wang Puxiang's command!" Attack Swallow Rock. ”

Although all the units of the Vietnamese Ming Army near Nanjing have obeyed Wang Puxiang's command, and there are even officers with individual ranks and qualifications in Wang Puxiang, the total number of regular troops of the Vietnamese Ming Army participating in the battle is less than 1,000, and Zhou Zhisheng mobilized 6,000 people from two infantry brigades as soon as he gave the order.

But more importantly, with Zhou Zhisheng's headquarters starting to act, all other Yue Ming armies have begun to act, this Yue Ming army has more than 1,000 people, more than nearly 10,000 people, and even Liu Yongxi and Empress Zhang have brought their own direct troops to kill.

Although I don't know what the specific situation is, Liu Yongxi said very clearly: "As long as I can take Nanjing City in advance, I can listen to Wang Puxiang's dispatch, which is equivalent to the loss of 10,000 people in our army!"

Liu Yongxi is feeling that although the Qing army in Jiangnan is uncertain, but Nanjing City is one of the few strong cities in the world, and there are tens of thousands of Qing troops in the city, and the presiding officer of the city is Liu Bowen, the first generation of sincerity, it is difficult to attack, the most typical example is Zeng Guofan's siege of Tianjing.

After all, there are still a large number of Qing troops in Jiangbei, and Azig is still in Huguang, and it is said that the Qing court also sent a large army led by the Great Belle Daishan to prepare to receive Duoduo.

Even if it is easy to conquer the city of Nanjing, but letting go of the main force of the Qing army is still an endless trouble, these days Liu Yongxi has been thinking about how to annihilate the Qing army in Jiangnan at the minimum cost, but now there is news that Wang Puxiang conquered Nanjing with hundreds of cavalry and pursued the Qing army in Yanziji.

This is an unexpected change that no one expected, but for Liu Yongxi and Yue Mingjun, such good news is too exciting, and Empress Zhang also followed Liu Yongxi's side: "Fortunately, Bei Gubo and Wang Puxiang were rewarded in time last time, otherwise there would be no miracle this time!" This matter really depends on the arrangement of His Royal Highness King Yue!"

In order to reward Zhou Zhisheng and Wang Puxiang for the previous time, she had a small dispute with Liu Yongxi, according to Queen Zhang's opinion, she wanted to take a break, and now Queen Zhang is glad that she did not insist on her own opinion.

And Liu Yongxi was also very happy: "I didn't expect such a result, but I don't know how many Jianjiao can be blocked in Yanziji this time!"

Although Mrs. Xing also followed Liu Yongxi, Empress Zhang never had a chance to speak to Liu Yongxi, and finally waited for Liu Yongxi to finish speaking before she spoke: "I heard that half of the conquest of Nanjing this time is the credit of General Wang Puxiang, and the other half is the credit of Miss Ruan Lizhen and Mrs. Liu Ru, and they are really strange women in the world!"

Mrs. Xing also had feelings, although Liu Yongxi personally said that Liu Ru is a strange woman in the world, and Ruan Lizhen is Liu Yongxi's childhood sweetheart, but Mrs. Xing has not been very convinced, but today I learned about the specific situation of the Nanjing Uprising, Mrs. Xing is really convinced, and feels that the evaluation of "strange women in the world" is very appropriate.

Although Liu Yongxi had high hopes for Liu Ru and Ruan Lizhen, he didn't expect Liu Ru and Ruan Lizhen to do so beautifully, he didn't know how to evaluate these two "strange women in the world", and said after a while: "Beauty is kind, there is no way to repay!"

Mrs. Xing's idea is quite simple: "Actually, it's very simple, since Hedongjun and Miss Lizhen have created such a good God-given opportunity for us, then we will live up to their hard work, and as for the grace of the beauty, it will naturally not be negative." ”

Mrs. Xing's words did not taste like laughter, so Liu Yongxi raised his horsewhip and said loudly: "Beauty is gracious, naturally it is not negative!"

The Viet Ming armies of all walks of life have now launched a full-scale offensive, although they are attacking from different directions, but the ultimate target is tens of thousands of Qing troops on the south bank of Yanziji and the Yangtze River, and the commander who instigated and commanded this major offensive was only a small battalion officer.

But now Wang Puxiang is facing more and more pressure, although he and another battalion officer, Lu Ziyun, deliberately slowed down the pace of advance and constantly regrouped the formation, and more and more Yue Ming troops rushed to support, but the closer they got to Yanziji, the more difficult it was for Wang Puxiang and Lu Ziyun to advance.

At least tens of thousands of Qing troops were gathered at Yanziji Wharf in front, while Wang Puxiang had less than 3,000 men under his command, and less than one-third of the real Yue Ming regular army.
