Chapter 208: Repeatedly
This is the second time Zhang Qiang has had such an idea.
"Will the losses be too heavy, you have also seen that we have killed and wounded more than 10,000 people, but the losses caused to the enemy are only one or two thousand Dutch hired Treasure Island indigenous monkeys, and some of their mercenaries there, in fact, their real casualties, I estimate that there are only two or three hundred people, they lose materials, we lose civilians, soldiers." Zheng Chenggong's sad and pitiful expression, as if he really cared about the casualties of those cannon fodder.
"It's okay, you don't have to worry about the number of deaths and injuries, and you don't have to be responsible for failure, I'll bear it myself." Zhang Qiang patted his chest and said.
"Are you really okay?" Liu Guoxuan asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, I know how to do it." Zhang Qiang said.
"The king, since this is the case, let the governor's soldiers try to attack the city, and the last general is willing to lead his headquarters to respond." Liu Guoxuan stood up, stepped out of the ranks, hugged his fists at Zheng Chenggong, who was sitting in the middle, and bowed his head to speak for Zhang Qiang.
Zhang Qiang nodded with satisfaction, he still values Liu Guoxuan very much, he is very caring, he has always taken care of himself, and he likes such a person.
"What's this?" Zheng Chenggong still hesitated.
Zhou Quanbin said sideways: "Your Majesty, the Governor is an important minister of the court, the pillar of the court, the pillar of the court, we can't let his soldiers and horses be damaged here, we are the main attack, and the Jinhua Righteous Army is the auxiliary, I propose a general attack, we gather the soldiers and horses that can be gathered, attack the enemy from three sides, and then let the soldiers of the Jinhua Righteous Army follow the siege, what do you think?" β
Feng Xin stood up, "Yes, the king of the county, what Lord Zhou said is reasonable, we can't snub the guest army." β
Gan Hui on the side did not speak, lowered his head to eat, left chicken leg, right hand grabbed a pig ear, a bite, then put down the oily hand, picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, then grabbed the pig ear and took a bite, turned his head to bite the chicken leg again, from time to time also put down the chicken leg, pig ear, holding chopsticks to eat vegetables, the food on his table digested the fastest, and others did not move half a mouthful.
Huang Yan drank wine with a smile and did not speak, his eyes turned left and then again, and moved with the position of the speaker.
"Okay, since the Governor wants to contribute, I won't stop it, just according to what Lord Zhou said, we will launch a general attack, and all departments will stand by according to the positions previously assigned, waiting for orders, and tomorrow morning, we will attack." Zheng Chenggong slapped his thigh for the last time and made up his mind.
Zhang Qiang frowned, he didn't know why Zheng Chenggong did this, but he felt as if there was something he didn't know, however, he still insisted on attacking by himself tomorrow.
"Lord Zheng, if you want to attack, then why don't you fight Chichicheng City, let's fight Relansha City, let's have a competition between the two of us, who will take the enemy's city first, how about it?" Zhang Qiang felt that it was best to find another way to achieve the goal.
"In this way, it will take some time to prepare, although we have surrounded the two cities, most of the people are still in the city of Geranza, how about the Jinhua rebels go to fight the Chiji City? I asked Yu Xing and Liu Guoxuan to cooperate with you? Zheng Chenggong leaned forward and looked at Zhang Qiangdao.
"It's okay, in this case, we have to go to Chichicheng first, trouble the two generals to lead the way, we go to Chichicheng City, and Gelansha City will be handed over to Lord Zheng." Zhang Qiang said.
"Okay, a word is a deal, Yu Xing, Liu Guoxuan's second general will listen to the order," Zheng Chenggong stood up and shouted solemnly.
"The end will be,"
"The last will be," the two of them stood up together and bowed their hands to Zheng Chenggong.
"Order the two of you to lead your own people, cooperate with the Governor to take the Red Embedded City, everything is under the orders of the Governor, his orders are my orders, and you must not disobey them, you know?" Zheng Chenggong said sharply.
"Yes, the king,"
"Yes, King,"
Two people take orders together.
"Then, since this is the case, the battle situation is urgent, I will not disturb the king of Yanping County, and I will order my subordinates to prepare for the pull." Zhang Qiang stood up and arched his hand.
Zheng Chenggong arched his hand towards Zhang Qiang and said: "Thank you to the Governor for coming to help, and when the day of success, I will definitely follow the agreement and form an alliance with the Governor, and help the imperial court resist the Qing army and restore the Ming Dynasty." β
"Farewell," Zhang Qiang bowed his hand towards Zheng Chenggong, then turned around, and said goodbye to the generals with his eyes.
Everyone stood up and gave Zhang Qiang away.
Zhang Qiang walked out of the tent and immediately went to mobilize the army, preparing to go to Chiji City.
After Zhang Qiang left, Zheng Chenggong waved everyone away, leaving only Zheng Tai, Gan Hui, Liu Guoxuan, Zhou Quanbin, Feng Xin, and a few people.
Liu Guoxuan said apologetically first: "The king of the county, it is really a bit inappropriate to do this, I think the governor is dedicated to helping us, we really don't need to treat him like this, in case he appears in the future, we will offend him, although we have to send troops to the treasure island in order to leave a way back for the future, but we treat the governor like this, and the general will feel unbearable." β
Zhou Quanbin said coldly: "This plan is yours, and it is you who executes it, you are talking like this now, do you want to shirk your responsibility and trap the king of the county?" β
"I didn't say that, at the beginning, it wasn't that you didn't want to agree to the conditions put forward by others, saying that you would find a way to let him retreat, and then we would use our methods to eliminate the Dutch and monopolize the treasure island, since you want to use his soldiers, and you don't want him to get too good benefits, I just came up with the idea to make it not difficult for the county king, you say so, do you mean that I am disloyal to the county king?"
Zhou Quanbin snorted coldly, "Just you ghost." β
Zheng Chenggong waved his hand, "Forget it, don't say it, everyone knows that the Jinhua Righteous Army is a good hand in battle, and even the Qing Army is not their opponent, and our strength is not enough, so I thought about inviting him to come."
But the conditions he proposed, alasββγ
In that way, we drove away the Dutch, and it was tantamount to welcoming him into the treasure island, the treasure island is ours, I don't want him to get involved, I take responsibility for this matter, you don't pass the buck to each other, the strength of the Qing army everyone knows, maybe in the near future, the Ming Dynasty will die in the hands of the Tartars, and the huge court can't resist the Qing army, with the strength of the current Nanming, I don't want them to have a chance to turn around, the Southern Song Dynasty lasted for a hundred years, but it was over, so we had to plan early. β
Zheng Tai didn't speak, looking at this nephew of his own, he had become mature from the previous youthfulness.
And Gan Hui still didn't say a word.
Liu Guoxuan was still a little unbearable, "Your Majesty, in fact, I think that there is a governor, the Ming Dynasty will not die, the Jinhua Righteous Army has defeated ten times their enemies, the Qing army is not good, the Dutch are not good, and the Grape people are not good, maybe in the near future, they can recover Nanjing, and when the time comes, the righteous people in the world will see the hope of revival." They will definitely flock to the imperial court. β
Zhou Quanbin said: "Lord Liu, you still listen to the king, do your own thing, and wait for them to defeat or win, think of a way to drive them away, Baodao is our place to stand, and they are not allowed to get involved." β
"That's right," Zheng Chenggong said, "In the future, we can compensate them in other ways at most." β
