Chapter 268: Northern Expedition, Kill!
Liu Zhong was nothing more than the pioneer award of the Qing soldiers, and this time Zheng Zhilong contacted the southern expedition, and the Manchu Qing were ecstatic, and they decided that this was the last chance.
The Eight Banners of the Central Plains Han poured out, Zhang Dayuan, Ma Leopard (Wang Fuchen), and Li Benshen each led the general army of the Rao battalion and led the troops south.
Zierharang personally commanded, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was determined to win, Huai'an Prefecture's Zhenghongqi Wakda, led the Mongolian Eight Banners and Han soldiers, and went south to Yangzhou to drag the Huozi battalion in Yangzhou, unable to support.
Having lost this strong enemy, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, from Dolgon down, did not think that Hou Xuanyan could hold Jinling.
In Chuzhou Mansion, Zilharang mobilized the Qing soldiers who kept coming, and threw them into the battlefield one after another. Zhang Dayuan had already killed Jiangpu County, and after seeing the corpses everywhere, he took a sip and said to the deputy general Hu Maozhen: "Liu Zhong's guy is Gao Jie's subordinate in the end, burning, killing and looting is neat and clean, and not even a single hair is left for the grandfathers." β
Hu Maozhen kicked away a baby corpse and said with a smile: "Don't panic, general, go to Jiangnan, some are oil and water." Jiangnan is rich, the last general once had the honor to go south with Prince Yu, and saw with his own eyes those people who were full of gold, silver and jewelry, jasper and jade, holding a scimitar in his hand and dripping blood, and wearing gold and silver on his body like his mother's groom. β
Zhang Dayuan looked up to the sky and smiled, and rode to the city, Liu Zhong was already waiting for him outside the tent. Zhang Dayuan caught a glimpse of him from a distance, his words were full of anger, and he raised his voice: "Liu Zhong, congratulations to your brother for conquering Jiangpu and making his first contribution, and he will soon be promoted to a knight." β
Liu Zhong knelt on the ground and said with a smile: "General, don't laugh at me Lao Liu, I can't stand your brother." Lao Liu is a rough man, and he doesn't dare to call the general a brother, but he is willing to give you a horse and a whip As long as the general is willing to let me Lao Liu be a personal soldier for you, it can be regarded as my heart. β
Zhang Dayuan snorted coldly, which was a little more comfortable, the pioneer assigned by Jierharang was Zhang Dayuan, but he was preempted by Liu Zhong. The first credit has been lost, fortunately, this kid will come to trouble, and when the time comes, forgive him and don't dare to be greedy for merit. Liu Zhong said it, but he didn't expect Zhang Dayuan to really throw the horsewhip at him, Liu Zhong couldn't dodge, he was hit by the horsewhip in the door, gritted his teeth and lowered his head to pick it up, and welcomed him into the big tent with a smile.
Liu Zhong surrendered in the four towns of Jiangbei, but Zhang Dayuan surrendered to the Manchus and became a slave before entering the customs. These traitors are very serious about each other's seniority, and the old traitors are often more liked by the Manchus, have great official positions and powers, and have a better relationship with the Manchu masters. Those who surrendered later, no matter how big their official positions were before surrendering, the Manchurians beat and scolded them at will, and even wantonly abused their wives and daughters. The bullied Han generals and officials often dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and they had to accompany them with smiling faces, for fear that their masters would not be satisfied, so they removed their officials and cut off their heads.
Zhang Dayuan walked into the big tent, sat down with a golden sword, and asked in a loud voice: "Liu Zhong, the Jiangpu defenders have almost solved it?" β
"There is no Ming army in Jiangpu anymore, the last general is instructing the soldiers to collect ships, as long as the general is willing, we can set foot in Jiangning County tomorrow." Liu Zhong's eyebrows fluttered, and he didn't notice that Zhang Dayuan's face became more and more ugly.
"Prince Heshuo's army has not yet arrived, and the prince has not yet given the order, and you, Liu Zhong, have already decided to cross the river?"
The banner owner of Zilharang with the blue flag, one of the original Eight Great Political Baylors, in the eyes of these traitors, is a person as big as the sky. Liu Zhong hurriedly denied it, and begged for mercy vigorously, how could Zhang Dayuan let him go so easily, he tried to find fault, but he wanted Liu Zhong to pay tribute to the things he had snatched in Jiangpu. Who knew that this Liu Zhong had always been polite, and he didn't take out any of them, and the angry Zhang Dayuan scolded him to death.
When Zhang Dayuan wanted to continue to exert pressure, a small soldier rushed in from outside and said urgently: "General, it's not good, the Ming army is here." β
Zhang Dayun's face changed, and he didn't care about asking Liu Zhong for money, so he said angrily: "Liu Zhong, didn't you say that the Jiangpu defenders were all swept away by you?" β
Liu Zhong was also frightened, but he quickly confirmed: "The Jiangpu garrison was indeed swept away by the last general, and this army must be the Ming army that crossed the river." β
"Fart, the water word camp is in Yangzhou, and the Houtu camp is behind us, where did the crossing army come from?" Zhang Dayuan was a little panicked in his heart, after so many years of fighting, he understood a truth. There is no weak brigade under the fame, and sometimes it is not good to not believe in evil. With Hong Chengchou's strategy and Li Shutai's bravery, they all suffered big losses under Hou Xuanyan and died one after another.
Let him be by Ji'erhalang's side, waving the flag and shouting the fox and the fake tiger, it's okay, let him face Hou Xuanyan directly, it is impossible for him not to be afraid in his heart.
Liu Zhong stomped his feet and said urgently: "Go out and take a look, you will know who it is." β
The two of them walked out of the big tent with their front and back feet, climbed the Jiangpu city wall that was bombed into ruins by them, and looked into the distance.
It was an army they had never seen before, and these soldiers and horses were uniform, and thousands of troops and horses were like one, shaking the mountains and rivers with their gestures.
A sharp-eyed soldier, pointing to the towering banner of the Chinese army, exclaimed: "'Yue! 'The word banner, it was Hou Xuanyan who came, and Hou Xuanyan arrived in person! The crowd suddenly fell into panic, and the soles of Liu Zhong's feet softened, and he suddenly remembered the confident light in the eyes of the two petty officials in Jiangpu before they died. That is the calmness of believing that someone will definitely avenge him after his death, Liu Zhong has never forgotten, and the shock of those two eyes to his heart is so great.
A name can deter the enemy, which is the unique glory of the victorious general. The Northern Expedition of the founding army was invincible, and an arrogant spirit soared into the sky, which was the unique momentum of the undefeated army.
Liu Zhong and Zhang Dayuan glanced at each other, and both saw the cowardice in each other's eyes, Zhang Dayuan said: "The Jiangpu city wall is so dilapidated that it can't be defended, let's go out of the city." The enemy army is large, if you can fight, you can fight, or if you can't.... Save your strength and fight again in the future. β
Liu Zhong hurriedly said: "What the general said is extremely true. β
When Jiang Jianxun first arrived in the temple, he had the opportunity to go on an expedition and take charge of a large army. It is also because Jinling's defense is a little empty, and the generals are all fighting outside, and he has nearly ten years of soldiers and horses in the north, and the short man pulled out the general and selected him.
Wang Da was dressed in bright silver armor, riding on a tall horse, and was more majestic than his master Jiang Jianxun. His horse was originally thin and weak, Wang Da said to Jiang Jianxun: "Charging into battle, it is my ability, you can't, what's the use of such a divine horse?" β
Jiang Jianxun smiled, and actually exchanged war horses with him and let him go out with the army.
Wang Da rode on his horse, and as the army slowly approached Jiangpu City, he turned back and said, "Master, I have never seen this kind of soldier or horse. β
Jiang Jianxun's expression was solemn, and he no longer had the witty and smiling face of the past, and said in a deep voice: "Don't gossip in the formation, listen to the drums and horns of the commander of the Chinese army, and prepare to charge." β
Hou Xuanyan rode on the horse and scolded in a low voice: "I have been sparse for a long time, and I am used to riding delicate girls, and my crotch hurts after riding a horse for a long time." No wonder people say that children love long heroes and are short of breath, Liu Bei grew fat on his thighs back then, so he lamented that he had wasted his time, and the mood of the ancients, I can understand it now. β
Qin He reminded: "Marshal, the Qing soldiers of Jiangpu City have come out. β
Hou Xuanyan pulled out his sword and raised his voice: "Northern Expedition, kill!" β
