The real Manchurian general Shumulu Tan Tai was fearless and resolute, and since he decided to send troops, the army was immediately mobilized.

Since the end of last year, after Dolgon noticed that the Eight Banners were being consumed too quickly, he stipulated that in the future, the Green Battalion would be urged to be in front, and the Eight Banners would be used for surveillance, and the Eight Banners would not be allowed to engage in a war of attrition unless absolutely necessary.

When you want to use the Eight Banners, you must also divide them into a sequence, in general, that is, the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty will die first, and then the Eight Banners of Mongolia will die, and finally the Eight Banners will be killed.

Dolgon's strategy is very important for the Manchus to preserve their strength, but it will undoubtedly weaken the combat effectiveness of the Qing soldiers, and Tan Tai is actually very unimpressed.

Last year, the performance of the Dolgon faction on the battlefield was very bad, and it was questioned by the Manchus, Tan Tai, as the minister of the two yellow flags to Dolgon, was already insoluble in the Haoge and Aobai factions, and he was very indignant at the weakness of the Dolgon faction on the battlefield, and he was bent on establishing merit to stabilize Dolgon's position.

The 20,000 horses and 15,000 green battalion soldiers brought in by Tan Tai this time were mainly led by the rebel generals Tian Xiong and Ma Degong. These two were the subordinate generals under Huang Jingnan, and they rebelled in battle, resulting in the defeat of Huang Jingnan's army, and Emperor Anzong and his concubines were also captured by the two and dedicated to the Qing court.

Among the five major feudal towns of Hongguang, Huang Jingnan was able to defeat the left town of the eastern attack, which shows that the strength belongs to the top class, Tian and Ma are two rebel generals, and most of the green battalion soldiers under his command are the soldiers of Huangzhen, who was once one of the only field elite soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, and is not much worse than Li Chengdong's department, which can be described as a magnificent army and horses. \u000b In addition, it is Gushan Ezhen Ashan Governor 3,000 Hongjia Mongolia, and Tan Tai leads 2,000 Huangjia Manchuria.

In this battle, Tan Tai wanted to raid Wang Yan, so he couldn't listen to Dolgon's words, and he had to use cavalry to quickly raid, so 5,000 Eight Banners plus 2,000 Green Battalion cavalry crossed the Min River first, and the infantry army then attacked.

Zhang Cunren had no choice, in addition to the Green Camp infantry brought in by Tan Tai, he also allocated 4,000 men and horses from the Fuzhou defenders to accompany him, so that the Qing soldiers dispatched this time reached 24,000 people, of which 7,000 cavalry were the vanguard and 17,000 infantry were the rear team, and they rushed to Quanzhou.

Tan Tai was anxious, let Wang Qifeng as a guide, the army crossed the Min River, galloped quickly, galloped for a day, entered the boundary of Xinghua Mansion, but was blocked by the Dilu River east of Putian, and when the ferry was found, it was already the afternoon of the second day, at this time Zhang Cunren had urged the infantry to catch up, and the seven thousand cavalry were equal to running in vain for a day.

Zhang Cunren hurriedly organized the infantry army, using the boats collected by the cavalry to build a pontoon bridge, Tan Tai did not stop, the cavalry rushed to cross the Dilu River before sunset, entered Putian to rest, and the county town was plagued, and the blood flowed like a river.

The next day, Tan Tai did not wait for Zhang Cunren, so he urged the cavalry to run wild again and left the county seat, but was stopped by Yanshou Creek.

The Eight Banners were crisscrossing the Beidi Plain, often running thousands of miles, but this came out of Fuzhou, less than two hundred miles, and they had stopped twice, counting the Min River, they had been blocked by three rivers.

Every time, Tan Tai thought that he could directly kill under the city of Quanzhou, but every time he didn't walk for half a day, he would be blocked by a new stream, which made Tan Tai start to get irritable.

"How many big rivers are up ahead?"

For outsiders like Tan Tai, Fujian's streams can indeed be called big rivers, he looked at Yanshou River and asked dissatisfiedly.

Wang Qifeng hurriedly said: "Return to the general, cross the Yanshou River, travel another sixty miles, cross the Mulan River, and then you can drive straight into the boundary of Quanzhou Mansion." ”

Tan Tai was heaning for a while, if he waited for Zhang Cunren's infantry to catch up and build a bridge, his time would be wasted, so he had to order the cavalry to build a pontoon bridge by himself.

These 7,000 cavalry, originally intended to run for a long distance, but now they have become the existence of building bridges for the rear foot soldiers, opening roads and bridges, and their high morale has fallen by half without realizing it.

Erecting a pontoon bridge is a technical job, 7,000 cavalry felling wood, making rafts, and setting wooden stakes in the river, which can not be completed in a while, especially in addition to the 2,000 cavalry of the green battalion, there are people who know how to water, and the eight banners are all landlubbers, and the difficulty of building a pontoon bridge on the water can be imagined.

However, before Zhang Cunren's infantry arrived, they still completed the project, all crossed the Yanshou River, and continued to move west.

But it didn't take long for a vast stream in front of them to block it, and Tan Tai suddenly became a little furious.

When Zhang Cunren and Cui Jun came to Yanshou Creek, they saw that a pontoon bridge had been erected on the stream, and Tan Tai's cavalry had passed for a long time, so he had to command the rear army to hurry across the river.

Wang Yan entered Quanzhou Mansion with the main force of the Ming army this time, if Tan Tai can defeat Wang Yan, it will naturally be done once and for all, but on the other hand, now the main force of the Qing army in Fujian is also all with Tan Tai and him, if Wang Yan is not defeated, but is defeated by the Ming army, then the situation in the entire Fujian will be unimaginable.

Out of prudence, Zhang Cunren is not seeking miraculous feats now, but seeking safety, so Tan Tai is in such a hurry to march, which makes Zhang Cunren very worried, afraid that he will attack the enemy lightly and be ambushed, so he has to urge the infantry to chase quickly.

As the saying goes, three drums are exhausted, and nothing more than three. On the other side, looking at Mulan Creek in front of him, not to mention the seven thousand cavalry, even Tan Tai's own breath in his heart also leaked down.

"General, look?" At this moment, Wang Qifeng suddenly pointed to the river and exclaimed.

When Tan Tai heard this, he hurriedly looked over, only to see a few small fishing boats on the left side of Mulan Creek, rowing towards the east.

Tan Tai frowned slightly, and hurriedly took a clairvoyant mirror from his own soldiers to watch, nearly a hundred Qing soldiers were defeated, rowing the boat in a hurry, rowing towards the east bank.

"Take them ashore." Tan Tai's face sank, could it be that Quanzhou has been attacked? He felt a pang of chagrin in his heart.

A moment later, the hundred defeated soldiers who crossed the river in a fishing boat were brought to Tan Tai, but Wang Qifeng on the side was the first to be surprised: "Ma Huateng, why are you here?" ”

"General Wang knows?" Tan Tai asked.

"General, he is the commander of the last general."

Tan Tai's brows furrowed, and the horsewhip pointed at Ma Huateng, "Say, what's the matter, why are you here?" ”

Ma Huateng immediately cried: "Back to the general, the Ming army attacked very urgently, and the reinforcements were delayed, General Zhao saw that the city was about to be unable to hold, so he took the brothers to break through by night, but there were many soldiers and horses in the Ming army, and General Zhao and the brothers were forced back to the city. ”

"General, it seems that Quanzhou is in danger~" Wang Qifeng was terrified, pretending to be worried: "If the army can't arrive as soon as possible, I'm afraid that the six thousand brothers in Quanzhou City~"

Tan Tai didn't wait for him to finish speaking, he waved his hand suddenly, "Order the army, don't stop, immediately set up a pontoon bridge to cross the river, it was going to be before Quanzhou fell, suddenly appeared outside Quanzhou City, and killed Wang Yan by mistake." ”

In Tuling, at the junction of Quanzhou Mansion and Xinghua Mansion, several Ming armies have been stationed at this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Yan sits on the top and the bottom with the respect of the scholar and supervisor of the Chu State Public University, and more than a dozen generals are neatly draped, and they sit down according to the military rank. \u000bZheng Chenggong, Li Guo, Liu Shun and other generals rushed in, Wang Yan asked them to sit down, and then lifted his helmet, threw it on the handsome case, and said loudly: "The men and horses are ready, let's start." ”

After speaking, he walked to the sand table that was rushed out, pointed to Mulan Creek and said: "According to the detective, Tan Tai has set up a pontoon bridge in Mulan Creek, it is believed that the Qing army came in two armies, the front is Tan Tai's 7,000 cavalry, and the back is Zhang Cunren's 17,000 green battalion, a total of 24,000 people, and our army in addition to the 2,000 people who stayed in Quanzhou, 32,000 foot soldiers, and set up an ambush here, do you have any interest?" ”
