Chapter 1106: The Imperial Expedition
The arrival of Beiqing reinforcements made Zhao Hangfei very happy, but at the same time, he was also a little scared and afraid.
The emperor of Beiqing, that is, the second prince of Daqing, was born in the military, and after he controlled the government of Beiqing, he basically subverted the original set of Daqing's cultural and martial arts. The perennial life in Saibei made him feel that Daqing's army was a little too weak, he couldn't say that he was martial, but for the management of Beiqing's army, he had formulated quite strict military regulations!
This is also why the people who did not obey his orders at all before will be so obedient after hearing that reinforcements are coming. Because according to Beiqing's military regulations, if they were so careless, they would indeed be killed......
What Zhao Hangfei is worried about is also related to Beiqing's military regulations. He Zhenhua was killed as the main general, and according to the Beiqing military regulations, he, the deputy general, should attack with the whole army, rather than retreat to defense.
Of course, it depends. Otherwise, no one in the Beiqing army would dare to join the army......
Of course, according to the situation at the time, it was the right choice for him to retreat to the riverside, and then the emperor of Beiqing also gave him the position of chief general. But for so long, he, the main general, has done nothing! Even the three armies of Nanqing in Yangzhou City are not clear about the situation at all...... This is a dereliction of duty!
If you don't talk about it, you won't be able to solve it, but if you ask about it...... I don't want to say whether this position of the main general can still be done, I'm afraid I will suffer a lot of flesh and skin! It can even cause death...... To put it bluntly, this matter can be big or small, and it is completely a matter of looking at the attitude of the general.
The attitude of the Beiqing reinforcements depends on who comes. Who is here depends on how Emperor Beiqing wants to clean up the land south of the Yangtze River!
Although Zhao Hangfei has no prestige in the army and is not suitable to be a commander-in-chief, his head is not bad. Most of the time He Zhenhua would come to him to discuss countermeasures, which is why He Zhenhua would let him be the main general......
Because of this, he figured out these things as soon as he thought about them, and he began to think of countermeasures in his mind. Without prestige, you may be able to accumulate slowly, but if you don't have a brain...... That's really not suitable to be a commander.
As the fleet approached, Zhao Hangfei also saw clearly the number of Beiqing reinforcements - more than 20,000 people!
Beiqing is located in the north of the Yangtze River, so it is not developed in terms of shipping. The number of 20,000 people is the largest number of people that the Beiqing army can transport at one time. After Zhao Hangfei finished counting, his heart couldn't help but "chuckle": It seems that the emperor of Beiqing is going to raise the strength of the whole army this time, that is to say, the commander who led the troops this time is a general or above.
Zhao Hangfei thought about countermeasures for a long time, but after all, he was biased towards luck...... In other words, he didn't come up with any decent countermeasures at all. Now that I have figured out the situation, I can't help but panic......
"General Zhao, the military affairs in the camp have been sorted out, do you want to check it?" The sudden sound behind him interrupted Zhao Hangfei's thoughts.
Although his orders did not work in the army, among the more than 10,000 people, there were always a large number of people who supported him, and these people were also recruited by him in ordinary times. There are not many of them, but he can ascend to the position of chief general, and these people have played a big role.
"No need! Hurry up and get all the tents packed! When Zhao Hangfei heard the words of the visitor, an idea suddenly popped into his mind, so he hurriedly ordered.
"Packing up the camp? But ......"
"Don't talk nonsense! Lao Tzu tells you to go, you can go quickly, if there is disobedience this time, just kill it! If you wait for reinforcements to come ashore, you haven't packed it yet...... Then no one wants to live! "Otherwise, he Zhao Hangfei is not suitable to be the main general, even if this order is given, there is no other way than to threaten him......
Hearing that the new general seemed to be really angry, the people behind him hurriedly answered and went to give orders.
The order to pack up the camp tent is certainly a bit nonsense, but at this time, seeing that reinforcements are coming, these people don't dare to make too much trouble. If something happens, the master will carry it, and they don't want to be killed and made an example for not obeying orders......
After the night attack of more than 10,000 people in Nanqing, there are still about 9,000 people left, and with this number, their losses are actually not heavy. Of course...... This is mainly because Baihua and Shen Wei are trying to kill the master to show their attitude.
The number of tents used by 9,000 people is still relatively large, and even if about half of the people have lost their tents because of the panic of retreat, and there are no tents to live in, it is still more time-consuming to pack up the rest of the tents.
But it was okay, maybe Zhao Hangfei's threat played a role, and they finally packed up these tents before the reinforcements landed.
"The last general, Zhao Hangfei, see the general!" Before he saw anyone, Zhao Hangfei bowed to the main ship and shouted loudly...... He himself is "a thief with a weak heart", whether the other party is a general or not, it is always necessary to leave a good impression!
It's just that after he finished shouting, there was no answer from the ship. Zhao Hangfei, who hung his head, frowned: At this distance, it is impossible for the other party not to hear his voice. This "weird" silence made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"The last general, Zhao Hangfei, see the general!" After a moment of confusion in his heart, he shouted again to the boat......
There was still no movement on the ship, only a group of soldiers standing around the railing, looking at him coldly, their eyes full of wariness.
Sneaking a glance at the posture on the main general's ship, a bold idea suddenly appeared in his mind - the one sitting on this ship could not be the emperor of Beiqing, right?
Because the thought was so curious, he shook his head again, banished it from his mind, and prepared to shout at the ship again......
But this time he really guessed!
"The last general Zhao Hang flew ......" He was just halfway through the shout, when he saw a person walking up to the bow of the main general's ship that had stopped.
"That's it! You don't have to shout, I know! "Hearing the sound, this person is really the current emperor of Beiqing, the second prince of Daqing before - Zhao Wuchang!
Zhao Hangfei almost fell to the ground in fright, and the sweat on his forehead was even more suffocating...... He thought that this main general was also a general, but he didn't expect it to be the Beiqing Emperor who drove the expedition himself......
"The last general doesn't know that the Holy One is coming, and he deserves to die! Long live my emperor, long live, long live......"
