No matter how much Bolo hates Xie Sanbin to the core, the current situation is very passive for Bolo, and the most passive problem is the lack of troops.

Originally, for Boluo, who was sitting on an army of 40,000, the lack of troops did not exist at all, but now there are 5,000 soldiers and horses from Haning and Tianxiong on the south bank of the Qiantang River, and 5,000 or 6,000 men and horses were used to recover Jiaxing and Huzhou, and the 40,000 army became 30,000 troops, and the rebels who raised anti-flags were everywhere outside Hangzhou.

If there are only these "righteous army" is not a big problem, but among these "righteous army" there are still elite divisions sent by Liu Yongxi, the Duke of Yueguo, and sometimes several battalions of people suddenly kill, which makes the Qing army feel particularly difficult to deal with, and the Qing army has strictly ordered less than 100 people not to go out of the city without authorization after suffering several losses.

And in Yuhang County, which is dozens of miles away from Hangzhou, such a good show is being staged, Niu Lu Zhensu and Tai are like thunder: "These Han people are too insidious, I have to slaughter Yuhang!"

The Han guerrillas around Su Hetai reminded this Manchurian nobleman: "My lord, you still have to be careful of the ambush soldiers of the Ming Kingdom!"

Su Hetai didn't believe in this evil: "The ambush soldiers of the Ming Kingdom? No matter how many ambushes there are in the Ming Kingdom, isn't it easy for you and me to join forces? Besides, if Yuhang can't hold it, let's retreat to the customs as soon as possible!"

Although Yuhang and Xiaoshan are now full of smoke, Yuhang and Xiaoshan can be said to be the two closest counties to Hangzhou, but the Manchurian nobles, including Boluo, think that they must be able to hold these two county seats, and Xiaoshan County belongs to Shaoxing Prefecture no matter what, but Yuhang County is the closest county seat to Hangzhou Prefecture.

Su Hetai felt that Deqing and Changhua might not be able to hold these places, but if Yuhang couldn't hold them, then Boluo's Qing army would fall into a great crisis, and he was relieved to hear Su Hetai say this, and he was relieved to hear Zheng Changhe guerrilla: "That's right, just with Yao Zhizhuo, how can these hundreds of people be the opponent of my Great Qing Kingdom!"

The enemy army in front of them is the department of Yao Zhizhuo, a rebel army that has just risen recently, although Yao Zhizhuo's department is particularly cunning, insidious and difficult to deal with in the Zhulu Righteous Army, but Yao Zhizhuo's command is only three or four hundred recruits, and he is completely relying on various tricks to deal with Su Hetai, while Su Hetai and Zheng Changhe have six or seven hundred elite Qing troops, including nearly 100 Eight Banner soldiers.

And with Zheng Changhe's support, Su Hetai made up his mind to prepare to do it: "If you have this sentence, let's rush up together and kill Yao Zhizhuo without leaving a piece of armor!"

In Su Hetai's imagination, Yao Zhizhuo's group of recruits completely relied on all kinds of tricks to fight with themselves, as long as they could drop ten with one force at any cost, Yao Zhizhuo's group of chaotic parties would be annihilated, and although the development of things was as Su Hetai expected, the situation soon got out of control.

These bandits under Yao Zhizhuo's command saw that the elite Eight Banners Horse Team was completely in a hurry and ran into the mountains, Su Hetai and Zheng Changhe chased all the way and were about to annihilate them, the surrounding bandits suddenly came out, and the Qing army suffered a lot of losses between the guns and arrows, Zheng Changhe couldn't help shouting: "Brothers, the brave wins when they meet on the narrow road, let these bandits see how powerful we are!"

But after a round, Zheng Changhe and Su Hetai have already realized that the enemy in front of them is by no means a bandit, and it is even more difficult to deal with than the thief Li Zicheng they have dealt with, no matter which direction they rush, they will be besieged by several times the enemy, and these enemy troops are fully equipped and even have horse teams, and their combat effectiveness is still above the regular army of the Ming State.

Su Hetai recognized these enemy soldiers for the first time: "It's the Jinhua thief Yue Guogong, it's the Jinhua thief Yue Guogong, Yao Zhizhuo, you collude with the Jinhua thief and you will die without a place to bury!"

It's just that now it is not Yao Zhizhuo who is in danger of dying without a place to be buried, but Su Hetai and Zheng Changhe, there are more and more Ming troops in all directions, and no matter where the Qing army retreats, it is the Ming army that is swarming in.

And Su Hetai and Zheng Changhe fought more and more frightened, although Su Hetai personally rushed a few times, but in the first round his war horse was hit by an arrow, and the second charge was almost killed by a shot.

He soon realized a fatal problem, that is, the bandits and Jinhua thieves near Hangzhou had completely merged: "Quickly retreat, quickly retreat, we have to tell General Bolo that you must be careful!"

He changed another war horse and rushed back with the Eight Banners to repel a charge from Yao Zhizhuo, and took this opportunity to retreat south with Zheng Changhe: "Retreat, retreat!" Let's get out of here!"

When they retreated to the outside of Hangzhou, they found that there were less than 300 Qing troops left with Zheng Changhe, especially the nearly 100 Eight Banner soldiers under Su Hetai's command, and they were all permanent losses, Su Hetai couldn't help crying bitterly: "Since the Southern Expedition, there has been no such defeat!"

However, such defeats in the north of the Qiantang River have come and gone, and in another time and space, it took a lot of effort for the Qing army to sweep away these so-called "bandits", not to mention that now it is the "Jinhua thieves" and the "bandits" who have joined forces to repeatedly inflict heavy losses on small Qing troops.

Although the scale of these battles is not too large, at most it is a thousand-level duel, and the Qing army's losses are only more than four or five hundred people of Su Hetai this time, but the accumulation of losses has made Bolo thunderous, and several troops who crossed the river to the north have not only been tempered in the battle, but also have a good momentum of development.

In addition to the 10,000 troops led by Liu Yongxi in this northern expedition, the rest of the partial divisions were not satisfied, and Wang Sunfan passed through the five battalions of Jiangxi and only had 2,000 people, not to mention the remaining partial divisions, each battalion often had only 3560 or even less than 300 people, but now after combining with the righteous army, almost every battalion head has been restored to the establishment of a battalion of 500 people, and even some battalion heads have been overnumbered.

It was also the all-out strategy of the Jiangbei team that allowed Liu Yongxi to deal with Tian Xiong and Haning's subordinates who were fighting against the water without scruples, and now Yu Huang, who was with the army counselor, felt that the victory was in his hands: "Yue Guogong, as long as these 5,000 Jianjiao are annihilated, Wang Shi can cross the river to the north and regain Hangzhou!"

Although Yu Huang has a "eunuch" past, his loyalty to Daming is no problem, but Liu Yongxi laughed: "Things are not so simple, the trapped beast is still fighting, not to mention that this is still a prisoner!"

After the combination of Jiangbei troops and righteous divisions, they often adopted the tactics of encircling and annihilating small groups of Qing troops by concentrating superior forces, and Liu Yongxi also exerted his superiority in troops to the limit in Jiangnan, and constantly launched a siege with absolute superiority, although the Qing army still had 4,000 people, but the more they fought, the more passive they became, and they were about to be driven down the Qiantang River.

But Liu Yongxi believed that the Qing army would never sit still, and Yu Huang immediately smiled: "The Duke of Yue Guo is like a god, and someone has already reported to me just now!"
