In the water of Guazhou, Beijing, the Huozi camp crossed the river and landed in Guazhou Town.

Before the foothold was stable, the Huozi battalion was attacked by the Qing soldiers, and he had long expected that Jiangnan reinforcements would come ashore from here. In advance, he sent his subordinate deputy general Zhang Yingxiang to lead his troops to ambush here. The mist by the river was too big, and Li Haoxian was careless for a while and fell into an ambush.

Li Haoxian stood at the bow of the ship, commanding the Huozi battalion to counterattack while landing, but fortunately this was not Jingxiang, and the troop transport was the battleship of the Songjiang Naval Division. Under the cover of artillery fire, Li So-tai's ambush was quickly repulsed.

Zhu Dadian, who was in Yangzhou City, heard the sound of artillery and knew that reinforcements had arrived. Opening the city gate and leading the crowd to kill and receive reinforcements, Li Shuotai saw that the Ming soldiers were overwhelming, and sneered and decisively ordered the troops to retreat. Ambushes have already been arranged along the way, just waiting for the Ming army to chase after them and ambush them at Xiaotong Mountain.

Li Haoxian and Zhu Dadian got together to discuss, it was getting late, and if Li Shutai had a back hand, he was afraid of the scheme. So he was stationed in Yangzhou first and waited for the dawn before fighting.

Li Shutai saw that they were not fooled, his face was pale, these Qing generals had a copy of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and they often had a "trick" when they started a war. It's a pity that although the Three Kingdoms are classics, it's just a book, all of the world, to put it bluntly, he is a lazy person, he can't do anything and is unwilling to go out to work, in order to support his family, he has to write a book for everyone's pastime, how can he really rely on it to fight.

During the two watches at night, a warship escorted nearly 1,000 people to Yangzhou, and the young general who guarded the city asked, "Who is here?" ”

Hu Bawan showed his waist card and shouted: "The commander is here, open the city gate quickly." ”

The young general didn't dare to slack off, but the military order was like a mountain, and he didn't dare to open the door easily, and said with a smile: "The general forgives the sin, it is extraordinary at the moment, please pass the token up and take a look." After saying that, he hung a rope, and Hu Bawan shouted: "That's how it should be." After speaking, he tied the waist card and pulled the rope, and received a signal from above and pulled it up. Take a closer look, and sure enough, it's a pro-soldier waist card.

The young general of the Shuizi battalion guarding the city hurriedly went down the city wall and opened the city gate, Hou Xuanyan asked him for a few war horses, and asked him to lead the way into the city and come to the commander's tent.

Zhu Dadian and Li Haoxian hadn't slept yet, they were deducing the battle against the sand table, and when they saw Hou Xuanyan open the curtain and come in, they hurriedly greeted him.

Hou Xuanyan didn't care about being polite, untied his cloak and threw it on the ground. Pointing at the sand table with a horsewhip, he asked, "Where is Li Shutai now?" ”

Zhu Dadian pointed to Xiaotongshan and said, "Li Shutai pushed here and wanted to ambush us, but we didn't pursue it. I have a scout here, and I have just come to report it, and I learned of his ruse. ”

Hou Xuanyan looked at the small copper mountain on the sand table, stretched out his hand, and Zhang Yiguan immediately brought a torch. Hou Xuanyan took the torch and said while looking at it carefully: "Has Yizheng County also been lost?" ”

Zhu Dadian looked ashamed and said: "The last general has no way to defend the territory, except for Yangzhou City, which was taken by Li Shutai. ”

Hou Xuanyan smiled and said: "Old General Zhu doesn't have to blame himself, then Li Shuotai's original 20,000 people made me tremble. This traitor really has some skills, and I asked you to send troops to attack Huai'an Mansion for the Battle of Jingxiang, in order to contain the Manchu forces. In a hurry, you have just recovered Yangzhou, and the lone army has not yet run a battle in Jiangbei, and it is inevitable that you will lose. ”

Zhu Dadian's face softened slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Li Shutai deceived people too much, carrying a big banner to "take revenge", and came to Yangzhou to commit crimes repeatedly, but he obviously didn't take us seriously. The last time I fought with him in Huai'an Mansion, the township soldiers who resisted the Qing Dynasty along the way came to vote one after another, but they blocked the front and delayed the march. Alas! These birdmen are also rebels, and they can't be killed. The last general is not to shirk the responsibility for the defeat, but it is really this battle, and it is too aggrieved. ”

Hou Xuanyan smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said: "Although these volunteers are fighting against the Qing Dynasty in the name of resisting the Qing Dynasty, in fact, most of them are just speculation, and they gather together on weekdays to harm, plunder, and abuse the people; Of course, there are some loyal people, but most of them are unsuccessful. My third uncle, when he escaped from Jiading to avoid disaster, was almost persecuted by the so-called volunteers. ”

Li Haoxian was greatly annoyed when he heard this, and scolded: "The dog kills talents, if I meet them, I will kill them all first." ”

Hou Xuanyan said: "Lao Li is right, in the future, if you encounter someone who may lead to defeat, whether it is a god or a Buddha, an enemy or a friend, you will be killed." Today is different from the past, the society has been degraded, and foreign races have invaded. Marching and fighting for the sake of the Han people in the world, as long as there is no loss in righteousness, do not take care of the small sections. ”

Li Haoxian was born as a local tyrant in Shandong, and he was naturally in high mood when he heard this, but Zhu Dadian was an old oilman who had been immersed in the Ming officialdom for many years, and said worriedly: "In this way, I am afraid that it will be criticized and framed by traitors." His worries are not unreasonable, when he was an official in the Chongzhen Dynasty, he had seen too much. When discussing government affairs, officials never care about right or wrong, but only look at interests. If this official is not from your faction, any opinion he puts forward will be attacked against him. Even if you think so in your heart, and think that this is right, you must punish him to death, saying that he is a disaster to the country and the people.

Therefore, no one dared to speak out and take responsibility for the military generals at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Often, when there are major national events, they all pretend to be dead, and after the defeat of the army, they desperately take credit and push each other off, and attack each other.

Hou Xuanyan sneered and said: "If any traitor who doesn't open his eyes wants to harm us, I will do more than him, and the soldiers who can't let the frontline bleed will shed tears." Don't worry, with me Hou Xuanyan here, no one can harm you. ”

Zhu Dadian held his stomach and laughed loudly: "With the words of the commander, my old Zhu is relieved." Li Shuotai's courage is not to be feared, and our Shuizi Battalion must be ashamed of the snow and insert the banner of "revenge and shame" he carried into his chest. ”

Hou Xuanyan asked, "What do you have in mind, let's hear it." ”

Zhu Dadian pointed to the sand table and said: "There are rivers in front and behind the big and small copper mountains, and the two rivers have the same source of water and turbulent currents, surrounding the big and small copper mountains. Although the winter is slightly mild, the water temperature is extremely low, and it is impossible to cross the river with water. Li Shutai ambushed there, and he was also sure that we would not be able to escape in a hurry. This cage is born to grow, Li Shutai can use it, and we can use it too. We have an army of 200,000 people, no matter how tricky he is, after crossing the river in a dignified manner, we will tear down the bridge and fight him in a decisive battle. Can this kid's cavalry still fly across the river? ”

Hou Xuanyan still remembered in his heart that when he fought Yangzhou, Li Shuotai's 20,000 brave men. Touching his chin and said, "Is there any way, Yin him." ”

Li Haoxian said: "Let's fight! Li Shutai's murderous reputation has spread to Jiangnan, so let us fight a battle for the southerners to see, the real sword and real gun, and the Qing soldiers are not our opponents. ”
