Chapter 539: People's hearts are floating

The two sides of the people, around the snake mountain, started a scuffle. They wore the same clothes, held the same weapons, spoke the same Chinese, and even accused each other of the same slogan, that is, claiming that the other party had committed treason to the Qing Dynasty.

At this time, Liu Chengyin was a little frightened after the blow just now, and hurriedly withdrew from the building, and as soon as he left, the morale of the superior armor was discharged, and the lobby was occupied by Chen Youlong and others.

After he came out of the building, he was also stunned when he saw the situation under the mountain, and he felt a mess in his mind like Fu Shangrui.

In fact, this matter, as long as any wave of people is unprepared today, it can be quickly ended, but it is really coincidental to drop and pick up an ingot, and both parties are prepared, so it has caused the current situation of chaos into a pot of porridge.

Liu Chengyin commanded the soldiers to continue the attack around the Yellow Crane Tower, making sure to kill Chen Youlong and others, and on the other hand, he asked the soldiers to resist Chen Youlong's personal soldiers who had climbed up the mountainside, and then sent his henchmen to the military camp to transfer all the men and horses.

Although Snake Mountain is a dirt bag, it is enough to overlook the whole city, so Liu Chengyin directly built a handsome platform on the top of the mountain, and used war drums and command flags to command Liu's soldiers and horses who were fighting under the mountain, he could see the battlefield clearly and quickly grasped the initiative.

It's just that as the saying goes, there is a bear, and there will be a nest of bears, and Liu Chengyin, a often defeated general, brought out the people and horses, compared with Chen Youlong's people, it is not a star and a half.

Although he could see clearly the layout of the Chen army under the mountain, and with Fu Shangrui's Fubiao and his soldiers and horses gradually converging at the foot of the snake mountain, the number was far superior to the Chen army, and he also pointed out the weak point of the Chen army with the command flag, but his men and horses were not strong, that is, they could not defeat the Chen army.

The mountain was in a scorching state, and the situation on the mountain was not good, so a soldier ran to report, "Futai, general, Chen Youlong is hiding in the building, and the brothers have attacked several times, but they have all been driven out." ”

The current situation made Fu Shangrui look anxious, he listened to the report, frowned, and became impatient, "Why hasn't it been solved yet!" Since you can't storm it, won't you attack it with fire? The building was burned, and as soon as Chen Youlong died, the rebels below would disperse. ”

"Burn the building?" Although Liu Chengyin is a martial artist, but the Yellow Crane Tower is a famous building in the world, which was finally rebuilt, and burned again, they must be scolded to death, especially the literati of Chudi, they must be said to be decent, thinking of this, he couldn't help reminding: "Futai, the Yellow Crane Tower is a treasure of Wuchang, so it was destroyed, I'm afraid it's a pity." ””

Fu Shangrui was silent for a moment: "The building is prosperous, the Ming Dynasty is exhausted, and this building should be destroyed, this is the arrangement of heaven's will." ”

Liu Chengyin also asked, since Fu Shangrui spoke, he immediately ordered: "Set fire to the building, and say to the outside world that the fire was set by Chen Youlong." ”

The first soldier took the order and ordered people to prepare torches, but at this moment, the officers and soldiers of Liu's department on the top of the mountain suddenly found that on the Yangtze River, a fleet came from the west to cover the river.

The first few giant ships, like castles on the river, hung high with white sails, like a sea of clouds moving in the sky. The mast goes straight up to the sky, and above the bucket, the sun and the moon are bright, and the hunting sounds.

"Futai, Dongting Water Master!"

The soldier exclaimed, Fu Shangrui looked back, but he was so frightened that he saw a hundred big boats, down the river, and there were countless small boats of all kinds behind him.

can have this scale, then there is only the Dongting Sailor who has been developing in the land of three Hunan and four rivers in the past year.

Chen Youlong killed him before, but this time it is estimated that the court really came to take people.

Liu Chengyin's face also changed when he saw it, he panicked, and hurriedly asked, "Futai, what should I do?" ”

Fu Shangrui looked at the situation under the mountain, and decisively broke his wrist, "Go quickly, I'm afraid I won't be able to go if it's late!" It's not that Benfu is ill-planned, it's really bad luck and blood mold. ”

Liu Chengyin glanced at the boats on the river, afraid that Nanfu blocked Yinxi in person, and now the city was in chaos, and once the Hunan soldiers and horses entered the city, they had only a dead end.

He couldn't help but sigh, it was a failure, they never expected that the Dongting Water Master would arrive at this time, they knew that this was the case, they were not greedy for Chen Youlong's 7,000 men and horses, and directly based on the city, maybe they could wait for the Duoduo soldiers to come, but now it was too late.

At that moment, the two hurriedly went down the mountain, led the soldiers and horses and went straight to the West Gate, at this time, some Fubiao and Liu officers and soldiers felt that something was not right, didn't they say that Chen Youlong was treasonous, why did the Hunan soldiers and horses arrive, Futai and the general soldiers wanted to run?

The more than 20,000 Ming troops who were fighting in a daze, some of them had doubts, so they slowly fell off the team, and when Fu Shangrui and Liu Chengyin fled all the way to Huangshi, there were only 3,000 left of the 20,000 people.

Duoduo originally wanted to find Jin Shengheng for revenge, and the main force swept Jiangxi first and killed Jin Shengheng, the backbone, but because he received Fu Shangrui's secret letter, Hong Chengchou suggested attacking Chudi first, but before he left Huangzhou Mansion, Fu Shangrui ran from Wuchang.

Duoduo was very dissatisfied with this, but the advisor Huang Shu suggested that he treat Fu Shangrui with courtesy, and entrusted him with important tasks, and also publicized it to the outside world.

Sure enough, under the influence of the Ming governor of Hubei, some counties in eastern Hubei began to surrender to the Qing army, coupled with Fu Shangrui's familiarity with the terrain of Hubei, the deployment of the Ming army's troops and the combat strength of various departments, as well as his connections in the officialdom, the harassment of the Qing soldiers in the Qihuang region was immediately reduced, and the speed of the Qing army's march was greatly improved.

Duoduo left 5,000 men and horses to stay in Huangzhou to ensure logistics, and the army immediately slaughtered Wuchang.

At this time, Wuchang City had settled down, but both the gentry and the people in the city and the defenders of various departments were clouded with a layer of haze in their hearts.

The enemy is approaching, but there is an internal strife in the city, and the second-in-command of Hubei leads his troops to join the enemy, even if the Hunan soldiers and horses come to help, they can't blow away the haze that covers people's hearts.

Wuchang Wharf, lined with warships, docked on the edge of the Yangtze River, a group of officers and soldiers of the naval division, stepped off the warship, and began to build a water village under the command of the officer.

Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty wrote a poem "A Thousand Miles of Jiangling in One Day", although it is a bit exaggerated, but it also generally explains the speed of going downstream.

Historically, why the Southern Dynasty had to occupy the upper reaches first, it was mostly for this reason, hundreds of thousands of horses went down the river, and the downstream was basically difficult to resist.

After receiving the news that the Qing soldiers were about to enter the Kou in June, Du Yinxi moved from Changsha to Yuezhou, and when he received the news from Gao Yigong, he wrote a letter to He Tengjiao on the one hand, and led Man Dazhuang on the other hand, ready to go east.

The reason why Duoduo walked slowly, in addition to the attack of the rebel army, was because he went upstream, and there was a lack of experienced sailors to handle the sails, and the ships relied on the two old legs of the slender man to pull forward, but the Dongting sailors were different, and they went south from Yuezhou, with a smooth wind and water, and the speed was extremely fast.

Because Fu Shangrui left in a hurry, the Yellow Crane Tower did not completely burn up, Chen Youlong and others rushed out of the building, and they did not have time to wash off the gunpowder smoke on their faces after the disaster, so they rushed to the dock to welcome Nanfu Yinxi into the city.

Wuchang experienced this chaos, the people in the city were unstable, and the gentry and people couldn't tell the situation at all, why did Beifu surrender to the Qing? Was it forced by Chen Youlong? People's hearts are fluctuating, and Chen Youlong's qualifications are too low to control the situation at all, and He Tengjiao is not there, so he can only ask Gu Yinxi to hurry into the city to stabilize people's hearts.

The warship put down the pedals and set it on the dock, Man Dazhuang helped Du Yinxi to get off the boat carefully, and Chen Youlong and others hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.
