Borobelle admired Hong Chengchou's ability to mobilize troops, and in less than half a month, he mobilized 160,000 troops, plus the 150,000 troops he led, that is, 310,000 troops.

Across a river, no matter how far away it is not under their jurisdiction and dispatch, if they can raise it with Mang Gurtai, Haoge and others in Hunan, I am afraid that they can transfer 500,000 troops, but this is impossible, then the southwest and northwest troops will be drawn clean, not to mention that he does not have the ability, just say that these two people are impossible to obey their own dispatch, they are all princes, county kings or something, and they are just a clan Baylor.

With these troops, it is enough, I think that the Jinhua Righteous Army will not have too many troops, maybe their troops have more than 100,000 people, but there are definitely not so many soldiers who can fight, and there are not so many people, and there are 10,000 invincible, although these rumors are deliberately released by Hanchen named Fan Wencheng to intimidate the Ming Dynasty army, but judging from the past records, as long as the Qing soldiers are full of 10,000, they are basically crushing to defeat several times, or dozens of times the Ming army, so he thinks that the main Qing army has reached 50,000 now, The Han army banner has reached 80,000 troops, and the green battalion and other groups add up to nearly 200,000 people, such combat effectiveness can already crush the Ming army.

Hong Chengchou saw that Bolobel was deep in thought, his heart moved, he thought of something, and cautiously tentatively said: "Lord Belle, I heard that you were originally besieged by more than 100,000 troops of Jinhua Mansion with an army of only 20,000 and 30,000 troops, but you were injured by the despicable Ming army's cannons, this time the lowly position will not let such a thing happen,"

Hong Chengchou's temptation made Borobelle wake up from the calculation of the comparison of troops, and when he heard Hong Chengchou's words, he said a little angrily: "That **** is also careless, but today is different, I have already asked the army to come with more red-clothed cannons, and I have also transferred 4,000 soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, equipped with refined firecrackers bought from the Portuguese at a huge cost, this time, I will definitely add the hatred of the past to the body of the Jinhua Righteous Army, and return the favor to the other way." ”

"Lord Belle and the minions thought of going together, and the minister also mobilized five thousand green battalion firecrackers, and transferred soldiers who are good at using firearms from each battalion, and there are also more than 100 artillery, although the quality of the artillery brought by Baylor from the Beijing division is not as good, but the victory is in quantity, I will definitely completely exterminate the Huaxia army this time."

Bolo nodded slightly, "This Huaxia army started from a people's strength, and later developed into a righteous army, and now it has developed into an army, I have listened to the reports of the masters, saying that the Huaxia army has become a country of its own, and there are many skilled craftsmen in the territory, especially the firecrackers and artillery they made, the quality is not inferior to the Taixi people hired by our dynasty, and even the firecrackers captured from the battlefield are taken to the Taixi people, the Taixi people are amazed at the exquisite workmanship and the sharpness of the firepower, which is why the emperor and the regent will specially dispatch such a large army to the south, We must unite sincerely and exterminate them at one time, otherwise in the future, such exquisite firearms will be scattered among the people, which will be very unfavorable to the unification of the Qing Dynasty in China. ”

"Yes, the ministers will do their best to assist Lord Belle to exterminate the rebellious and Chinese bandits, and at the same time check their property, for the use of the country and our dynasty, and at the same time will not let such a delicate firearm and sharp artillery flow to the people, or let the Ming army obtain it, endangering the foundation of our Qing Dynasty."

"Okay, that's it, let's go down, straighten out the army and march as soon as possible." Bolo Road.

"Yes, the minion will retire." Hong Chengchou withdrew from the Boluo military camp, returned to his military camp to convene the generals to discuss, and ordered to start overnight immediately, and must arrive at Raozhou Mansion as soon as possible.

After giving the order and returning to his tent, Hong Chengchou received the information detected by the scouts, "Report, at noon today, the Manda Haibu has met the enemy, and is in a fierce battle, the enemy occupies 30 kilometers of our army, according to investigation, the enemy is the second field brigade of the enemy Huaxia Army originally stationed on the border of Raozhou Prefecture, with more than 8,000 troops, mostly infantry, more than 2,000 cavalry, and nearly 100 artillery pieces in the other army. ”

Hong Chengchou muttered: "This is the fight, okay, first destroy a part, and then occupy the capital city of Raozhou, this time, let the Huaxia army suffer defeat, wait for Duoduo's troops to arrive in Fujian, and then attack back and forth, Zhang Qiang, Zhang Qiang, you are still too tender, I just used a trick of doubtful soldiers, you will divide the troops yourself, I will eat you little by little, and then the army will besiege Jiangsu and Zhejiang on all sides, and soon, you will be like the rest of the Ming army, you can only flee everywhere." ”

"Order, let the cavalry escort the artillery forward as soon as possible, and the rest of the army will pull out the camp and follow behind, not too fast, not too slow, just keep the same speed as the artillery army."

After speaking, he squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, "Zhang Qiang, when you return to the army in two days, I have already occupied Raozhou Mansion, and in the face of more than 300,000 troops, how do I see you fighting?" After Duoduo's troops arrived, the Qing army with the three kings was on par with you in firearms, and your advantage no longer existed, but it was a pity that you were such a good at using firearms that you could not be used by my Qing Dynasty, who made you the lord of a country now?

In this way, Hong Chengchou took his army of 70,000 to stop and go all night, and when he received the news again the next day, it was a news that made him unhappy, Mandahai was defeated, and the 5,000 cavalry assault on the more than 7,000 infantry of the Huaxia Army who were marching was actually defeated. ”

He hurriedly reported to Bolo again, and then led the army to speed up, but no matter how anxious he was, the troops could not get up quickly, because it rained a little at night, coupled with the humid climate in the south, there were many rivers, and the troops had to wade through several small rivers, and when they arrived at the border, they were only ten kilometers away from the Second Brigade of the Huaxia Army, but they could not go any further, because he had to wait for the Qing army from Ji'an Mansion passing through Huizhou Mansion to meet him, and wait for the Qing army secretly transferred from Jinling to outflank the back road.

However, Bolobele's troops were also unable to move quickly with artillery, and the two Qing army units with a large number of troops actually gathered about five or six kilometers or ten miles, but they were unable to converge and rushed to the battlefield to support Mandahai's troops.

Of course, just when he finished reporting and came back, two good news, reinforcements had arrived, arrived in the territory of Raozhou Mansion, not far from them, but only thirty kilometers away, but a bad news made his face solemn, Mandahai was defeated, and the whole army of nearly 30,000 people only 500 cavalry escaped.

Hong Chengchou was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, more than 20,000 infantry, 5,000 Qing cavalry actually gave to the Huaxia army that was less than 10,000 in vain, what is the situation, is the Huaxia army really strong to the point of invincibility?

"Check, check it out for me, send two thousand cavalry to pursue, I can't let that Huaxia army escape, I want to let them all die-"
