The war in Jiangbei was very bad, and the generals of all departments had little confidence, thinking that the Han army was no match for the Tartars who drank blood.

The generals in the tent were very unimpressed with Gao Chengxun's arrogant words, and when this stunned young man went to the battlefield, he knew how powerful the Tartars were.

Coming out of the tent, Zheng Sen said: "Wait for the battle to start later, my sailors will shell three rounds first, and when I finish fighting, you will row and charge!" ”

The brothers of the Jiang waterproof division are good at water warfare, but when they go ashore, they can't do it when they see the Tartars.

Gao Chengxun said: "Wait a while, I will attack the front, and the Japanese army will then support, Gao Yiyi, you wait for me to attack Guazhou, go ashore from the side of the ferry, outflank the rear of the ferry, cut off the retreat of the Tartars, and prevent the Tartars from reinforcing them." ”

Gao Yiyan didn't speak, and he acquiesced to this suggestion.

The Ming army wanted to recapture Guazhou, which was right, but the people were too chaotic and too mixed, the command was disordered, the organization was unfavorable, and the efficiency was low, and most of the Ming troops who rushed to the country had no war experience, so they could only fill it with human lives.

It is no wonder that the soldiers and horses who can fight are basically in the north of the river, trapped in the city by the Tartars, and supported by the south bank, have no war experience, and there is also a lack of generals who can lead the army.

He Tengjiao is known as a knowing soldier, and he was driven to coordinate the reinforcements on the south bank, but Lao He's real level may not be as good as Wei Wujun's brigade.

The commander-in-chief was incompetent, the three armies were affected, and many of the men and horses who rushed to reinforce became cannon fodder.

Even the newly recruited Japanese army was the same, they were not like Wei Wujun, who had experienced more than four years of baptism of war, but a group of undertrained recruits, and the generals had never fought any battles, and they had no experience in commanding.

Although the Japanese army fought heroically, the method was wrong, and in the end it could only be thankless.

Then the men and horses boarded their respective ships, and then swung their oars and headed for the north shore.

By the time the fleet approached Guazhoudu, the three naval gunboats were already across the river, the gun windows on the side sides were opened, and the muzzles of the black holes stretched out of the gun windows.

I have to say that the sailors of the Ming Dynasty were still quite powerful, with more than 30 large and small artillery, aiming at Guazhou, and the Tartar generals above hurriedly said a few words of Yiyu, and led the defenders to retreat to the second line of defense.

The sailor's side roared, and the fierce shelling bombarded Guazhou, causing the ferry to splash gravel and bloom on the ground.

The naval warships on the river have been covered by gunsmoke, and the roar of the cannons makes the river tremble slightly, and the scene is very spectacular.

Zheng Sen stood at the bow of the ship, observing the direction of Guazhou with a clairvoyant mirror, and was very satisfied with the shelling.

At this time, a general next to him suddenly exclaimed, "Qianhu, Wei Wujun has begun to charge!" ”

When Zheng Sen heard the prestige, he saw that the Dongting sailors were riding forty or fifty small boats, swinging their oars, and had already rushed to the direction of Guazhou.

The shelling had not stopped, and Wei Wujun had already rushed over.

This made Zheng Sen a little frightened, but he was extremely talented, and he quickly understood Gao Chengxun's intentions, and immediately ordered: "Launch as usual, raise the angle in the last round, and smash it inside." ”

Zheng Sen, a thousand households, was obtained by Zheng Hongkui, but he had already proved his strength, so the sailors and soldiers were convinced of him.

Wang Yan stood at the bow of the ship and saw that Wei Wujun had rushed forward at the same time as the shelling, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but then he was a little depressed.

Gao Chengxun didn't brag about it, Wei Wujun was indeed an elite team that had fought for a long time.

This is not to say that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is stronger than that of the Qing army, but that spirit, the courage of the brave who meet on a narrow road, and the momentum of contempt for the Qing army, which cannot be compared with other people.

If you want to do this, not everyone can do it, the shells are flying overhead, ordinary people don't have the courage and confidence, they must be veterans of the battlefield. Because from the moment they rush out, they know they can definitely win.

It's not just a matter of blood, but the experience on the battlefield tells them that they can do this!

"Paddle through!" Wang Yan put down the clairvoyant mirror and raised his hand.

The second round of shelling had just ended, and Gao Chengxun, with three hundred old soldiers, had already landed in Guazhou, while the Tartars were still hiding from the shelling on the second line.

The Tartar who was observing in front raised his head, shook the dirt on his body, and suddenly found that a large black figure had already gone up to the river beach, and when he reached the bottom of his nose, his eyes fell in shock.

Several Qing troops did not come to report urgently, Gao Chengxun had already rushed to the first line of defense, and in a moment he drowned the remnants of the remaining soldiers on the front.

The Tartar general, who was hiding behind, his eyes widened, his face was full of incredulity, he pulled out his sword, and suddenly roared, shouting for the Qing army to jump out of the trench of the anti-artillery, and angrily charged, wanting to drive the Ming army occupying the first line of defense into the river.

Nearly 1,000 Qing soldiers jumped out of the trench in unison, roaring and charging, but they didn't run a few steps, when suddenly a few screams broke through the sky and dozens of shells were smashed, and the Qing army suddenly turned on their backs.

The banks of the river were full of stones, shells smashed on the ground, debris flew, and nearly 100 Qing troops were smashed by artillery.

This made the morale of the Qing army greatly discouraged, and at this moment, Gao Chengxun led three hundred black-armored old soldiers, shouting in his mouth, "Kill the turtle grandson!" "It's swept over.

Cold soldiers, the most important thing is a momentum, a group of Henan veterans, while chopping melons and vegetables with knives, scolded in Henan dialect, "Straight you old lady!" "Raw can't be.

The soldiers of western Henan and the stunned north rushed to the front, and hundreds of new soldiers of the navy division followed behind, their morale was like a rainbow, and the rebels and Tatars in Jiangbei had really never met such an opponent, and they were instantly stunned.

Wang Yan saw hundreds of people rushing the Tartars to pieces, and couldn't help but be a little stupid, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately pulled out the sword at his waist and led the Japanese army to rush up.

"Xi Niangpi!" The soldiers from the west of Zhejiang had already been ignited with enthusiasm, and they shouted and scolded all over the shore, and rushed violently towards the Qing army.

Zheng Sen also looked stupid, he didn't expect that fighting a war would be so simple, and he was thinking in his heart that he had to find an opportunity to learn something from Wei Wujun.

At this time, Gao Yiqi's men and horses had already landed from the side, and they outflanked them from behind.

As soon as the rebels at the ferry saw it, they immediately began to flee north~

In the Nanjing Imperial Palace, Zhu Cihong silently watched the sand table, which represented the small flag of the Ming army, which was constantly decreasing. The disappearance of each flag indicates the fall of a city or the cripple of a group of men.

The Jiangbei battlefield is like a huge meat grinder, consuming the military power of the Ming Dynasty and devouring the lives of the Ming soldiers.

Now that the Nanjing Imperial Court has used almost all the forces it can mobilize, Jiangfang is still in danger, which makes Zhu Cihong's heart full of anxiety.

Suddenly, an official of the military department came in with a happy face, and reported excitedly: "Your Majesty, good news, the Japanese army recaptured Guazhou, annihilated 5,000 captives in the north, and captured countless weapons and materials!" ”

The hall was boiling instantly, Zhu Cihong hurriedly took the battle report, read it carefully several times, and said three good things in a row!

The Japanese army was a newly recruited central forbidden army by the imperial court, but I didn't expect to be brave and brave, and actually broke the myth that the Qing soldiers in Jiangbei were undefeated.

Zhu Cihong's face was full of excitement, and all the officials in the palace rushed to circulate it first, but Ma Shiying said: "Your Majesty, everyone, do you believe this battle report?" ”

Zhu Cihong's face immediately sank, and Lu Zhenfei on the side said: "Your Majesty, there is water, but Guazhou must have taken it back." Even if He Gebu was bold, he did not dare to lie about the situation in Guazhou. Your Majesty, now I need a victory! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Cihong's expression softened a little.

The next day, the imperial court newspaper published He Tengjiao's recital, the imperial court recaptured Guazhou, killed 10,000 enemies, captured artillery, countless weapons, and severely damaged the Qing army in Jiangbei.
