Chapter 12: The Great Victory of Daozhou

"There's a play!" Cao Zhijian keenly noticed that the green camp was low, and ordered Hui Yannian, "I will hand over all the family and elite to you, rush over, and defeat Ma Jiaolin." ”

Hui Yannian didn't say anything, hugged his fists, turned around and left.

A few months ago, Cao Zhi built a fire and loyally assisted Yinxi, but Hui Yannian couldn't look past it, so he let Yinxi go.

Cao Zhijian was furious and wanted to kill Hui Yannian.

Hui Yannian said at the time, "I will die in the hands of Cao Gong, and I would rather die in the hands of the captives." ”

Lao Cao sighed and let Hui Yannian go.

Hui Yannian put on two layers of heavy armor, mounted his horse, and waved his spear, Cao Zhen's most elite 400 soldiers walked slowly to the center of the battlefield in 3 rows, covering the musketeers behind him.

Under normal circumstances, the Ming army had such a great advantage, the green battalion soldiers should turn around and run, or return to the city to hold on, or simply withdraw to Yongzhou. I don't know what Kong Youde promised Ma Jiaolin, but the green battalion soldiers didn't move.

Cao Zhijian gritted his teeth, he couldn't really do a good job today.

"The Chinese army, the herald. Benjue has 20,000 taels of silver, waiting for the soldiers to get it! ”

"Yes, Guogong."

The news of the silver reward spread from the end of the team to the forwards, and the Ming army cheered even louder.

……

Green Camp Formation.

Ma Jiaolin's family was hereditary in the Ming Dynasty for 11 generations, and now he is the governor of the Tatar imperial court, the chief military officer of Guangxi under the Dingnan Wang's domain, and the first-class Adha Ha Pan plus Tuo Sha Lahafan.

Ada Ha Ha Fan Han name light car captain, Tuo Sha Laha Pan Han name cloud cavalry captain, are hereditary titles. The cloud knight is the lowest knight, commonly known as half a future. There is also a cavalry lieutenant between the light car lieutenant and the cloud cavalry lieutenant. The title of Ma Jiaolin is two and a half futures. The Tatars were demoted to the rank of lord, and more than half of the future meant that the family could be hereditary one more time.

Ma Jiaolin said to his son Ma Xiong: "Please scribe." ”

Ma Xiong agreed, and the horse was about to leave.

Ma Jiaolin stopped his son, "Xiong'er, His Royal Highness the King of Dingnan suggested that the imperial court set up a Guangxi governor, and he recommended me as the only candidate, and if I am promoted, you can take over the general army." ”

Ma Xiong is the No. 2 person in Ma Town, Ma Jiaolin was promoted to admiral, and only Ma Xiong can receive the total army, and then this Muslim army can expand again.

The imams in the army are surnamed Yang, and are generally called Yang Shi. Religious soldiers are similar to Tusi soldiers, as outliers in military China, they are more cohesive than ordinary officers and soldiers. Ma's father and son said to fight with the imam, and they generally had to fight.

The core of Mazhen is nearly a thousand veterans brought from the northwest, and after a hundred battles, the children of Xiliang, like siblings, killed him. With these soldiers as the backbone, the Green Battalion maintained its position and fired guns indiscriminately to demonstrate, indicating that they had sufficient ammunition.

It was obviously not enough to rely on scolding alone, and Hui Yannian commanded Cao Zhenjiading to drive the battalion soldiers to continue to advance.

There are also no cannons in Horse Town. Within a range of 200 meters, more than 20 large and small Francophil machines quickly fired photons. Approaching to receive another shot of tiger squatting cannons, the Ming army fell more than 100 people.

More than 400 Cao Zhen elites and green camps were twisted together.

Guns roared, smoke rose and blood flowed downward.

Zhang Shijie's Li soldiers rushed into the green camp formation, and the bird soldiers occupied the right flank and fired a volley of guns at the enemy in turn. It's all in a mess, and it's very chaotic.

β€œAllah Akbar!”

Fighting the Celestial Cultists, such voices will always appear. The two armies fought more and more urgently, and entered a state of killing red-eyed six relatives and denying them.

In the center of the battle line, Hui Yannian took off his helmet and changed horses to fight again.

……

Half an hour later.

Ma Xiong rushed to Ma Jiaolin's side and grabbed the horse's head, "Dad, the Ming army is crazy." We have money and food, and we can't fight with them here. ”

Ma Jiaolin: "If you lose Daozhou, how can you explain to King Dingnan?" ”

"Cao Zhijian will definitely leave after robbing the grain, and we will send troops to recover it then."

Ma Jiaolin: "There are a lot of people staring at the governor of Guangxi, and the old men under the Dingnan Wang's domain, Guoan and Cao Dexian, are not easy to mess with." ”

Ma Xiong gritted his teeth, "Dad, the soldiers are gone, and we can't sit still!" ”

Ma Jiaolin was shocked, "Reasonable." Take the scripture teacher and let's leave. Tell the brothers, Yongzhou convergence. ”

Whether it is the Ming army or the green battalion, running away is a very familiar business. As soon as the banner of the general army moved, the green battalion soldiers scattered. Ma's father and son fled to Yongzhou with their own soldiers, and the defenders in Daozhou City also opened the north gate, abandoned their armor and fled north.

The Ming army followed the pursuit, and the green battalion was completely untenable.

Zhang Shijie walked to the center of the battle line, and Hui Yannian's body was lying on the ground. The colleagues who were drinking and bragging together a few days ago have died on the battlefield in the blink of an eye. Zhang Shijie sighed deeply and reached out to close Hui Yannian's round eyes.

Before dark, the Ming army pursued the officers and soldiers and withdrew to Daozhou City.

Cao Zhijian's elite suffered heavy losses in this battle. But he gained a precious opportunity to plunder grain in Daozhou, and after controlling the battlefield, he captured hundreds of usable firearms and armor, which was not a loss. Lao Cao inspected the soldiers who went out to fight, and rewarded them for their injuries. Soldiers who were not injured were also given preferential treatment, and the women captured in Daozhou became the best trophies for the soldiers to enjoy the victory.

On the next ten days, the Ming army collected grain in Daozhou.

Zhang Shijie was also unavoidable, and Hezhou Town moved to Ningyuan County, east of Daozhou, where Cao Zhijian assigned him a hunting ground. The robbery was easy and pleasant, and under the bombardment of Franco's machine guns, all the villages that dared to resist were wiped out. Strings of female prisoners tied to ropes and wheelbarrows carrying food were escorted by soldiers into the county seat of Ningyuan.

More than 2,000 women were captured in Hezhou Town and distributed to the officers and soldiers who went on the expedition, and there was not enough money to make up for them, and these women became the key to maintaining the army in Zhang Shijie.

Ma Jiaolin injured his vitality under Daozhou City, and did not dare to fight again after running back to Yongzhou Mansion. The Ming army did not wait to return to the Green Camp, but waited for an even more terrifying army.

The peasant army of tens of thousands of men and women, Xiao Yuanying, drove from Chenzhou and Guiyang Prefecture to the Xiaoshui River Valley, which was only separated by a mountain from Ningyuan County.

The Ming army immediately withdrew the plundering soldiers, and the infant city was fortified.

Several cavalrymen of the peasant army demonstrated on horseback under the city.

Zhang Shijie confirmed the banner of Xiao Yuanying, and gave orders to He Huchen and Fei Changtong.

"1. Immediately send a messenger to report to Guilin Mansion and Qiongzhou Prefecture that there are brigades of rogues in front of our army, with tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, boundless."

"Second, ask for help from the great control system in Guangzhou, Xiao Yuanying will go south according to the agreement, and Hezhou needs more food."

"Three, the two of you will defend Ningyuan County and ensure the safety of the loot."

Fei Chang uniformly complied. He Huchen's heart moved, "General Town, we are guarding the city, where are you going?" ”

Zhang Shijie smiled, "Of course, I went to meet this strange man in the group of thieves for a while." ”

……

The twentieth day of the third year of the Yongli calendar, January 21, 1650.

Guangzhou, the yamen of the governor of Guangzhou.

Shou Xiang tasted morning tea in a small cup, and there were 6 colors of dim sum on the wooden table in front of him.

Du Yonghe, the governor of Liangguang, grabbed a pot of tea and drank half of it, showing the true character of the Qin army.

"The big system, Du is a northerner, and he is not used to the way southerners drink tea, so he smiled."

Shou Xuan smiled slightly, "Please make the table at your own convenience." ”

Du Yonghe put down the teacup, "I heard that the soldiers of Hainan won a big victory in Daozhou?" ”

"It is true."

"The good news is very well done, and it's really a good article."

"The production of the table has won the award."

"You've done Qu Shiyun a great favor."

Shou Xuan replied lightly: "It's just to help each other." ”

Du Yonghe snorted heavily, "I also heard that you have attracted a large wave of rogues again. When my generation was a tartar, I didn't see these people coming back to Guangdong, but after my generation anyway, I couldn't wait to grab Guangdong one by one. ”

Li Yuanyin also said this to the loyal battalion, which represents the attitude of the Guangdong military group. Chengdong's subordinates were very unhappy with the incoming friendly troops, and it was very difficult for the two provinces to raise so many soldiers, and the more people they were, the smaller the cake they shared. The Ming army transferred troops to block the army, and even affected the anti-Tartar front.

According to the defense layout of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Qu Shiyun defended the direction of Huguang, and the Chengdong Department was responsible for the direction of Jiangxi.

The main forces of Qu Shiyun, Jiao Lian and the Dian army, were arranged in echelons along the Xiangjiang River and Lingqu, and the secondary passes were handed over to Cao Zhijian and other departments.

The main force of the Ming army in Guangdong was arranged along the Beijiang River, Yan Keyi guarded the first line of Nanxiong Mansion, and Luo Chengyao guarded the second line of Shaozhou Mansion.

Yuan Shizhong is now stationed on the border of Hunan and Guangdong, just across the border from Guangdong Province. In order to prevent Xiao Yuan's battalion from breaking into Guangdong and threatening the supply lifeline of Beijiang, the Ming army had to divide its troops, and Luo Chengyao urgently reinforced Lechang County, Shaozhou Prefecture, to block Jiulong and Eighteen Beaches. Du Yonghe is understandably dissatisfied with this.

"Don't worry about Du Zhengtai, I will settle Xiao Yuan's camp, and I will not enter your army's defense area."

"I hope that the general system will do what it says."

"Definitely." Shou Xuan picked up a piece of pastry with him, "It tastes good, and the chefs in the Taiwanese government are skilled." ”

"If the general system likes it, I will find a few good cooks in Guangzhou and send them to Qiongzhou."

"Oh, I appreciate the kindness of the table, but don't bother. I'm used to eating Xingwu food, and I'm not particular. But what did you think about the suggestion you said to the production station last time? ”

"The Xiangshan County you want is related to the Yi people of Oyster Jingao, and Du must be cautious."

The bargain came, and Shou Xuan said: "I only need the orders of Xiangshan City and Xiangshan County, and the Tongzhi of Guangzhou Haiphong and the Patrol Sea Road are still the people who make Taiwan." I won't interfere with your business with the Francos. ”

"What is the use of the great unification system, Xiangshan, a small county town? If there is no sea trade, Xiangshan is just a poor island county in the sea. ”

Shou Xiang was very calm, "Of course, for the sake of the population, there are so many Han people who have fled to Oyster Jingao, so it is better to get on a boat in Xiangshan County and go to Nanyang." ”

"I can give you Xiangshan County, and in exchange, I want a whole river in Borneo."

"No problem, the Rajang River is the longest river in Borneo, and it is also the boundary river between us and Brunei, and it is all under Taiwan."

Du Yonghe: "I will send people to open up the territory of Nanyang this year. ”

Shou Order: "I want to buy a boat in the Pearl River." ”

Du Yonghe nodded and said, "We cooperate with each other." ”

Shou Xuan stood up, smiled and stretched out his right hand: "I wish us a happy cooperation." ”

Du Yonghe shook hands with Shou Xu and asked slowly: "If in case, my brothers and I go to Nanyang to settle down, what position can your country give me?" ”

"The territory you have opened up is hereditary, and our country guarantees the safety of your private property. I can only guarantee that you will enter the Borneo local council, whether you can enter the parliament, whether you can enter the parliament, I don't count, you have to rely on the control of the platform and the efforts of the generals themselves. The more plantations you cultivate, the more people you have, and the higher your status in Borneo. ”

Du Yonghe is Qiu Ba, who only believes in strength, "I know, I will discuss it with my brothers." ”

Leaving the governor's yamen in an orderly manner, he sat in a sedan chair carried by four people. Follow the local customs, and don't want to be too high-profile.

How to grab the greatest benefits in the next Liangguang war situation is the most concerned thing for the order, the Guangdong warlord group is strong, and there are really a lot of bargaining chips in the hand, and the order has taken out the largest piece of territory in Borneo.

The order was in his mind, and the situation in Guangdong was passed over again.

After Li Chengdong was martyred, the Guangdong group was not divided, and Du Yonghe tried his best to ensure internal integrity. He united the generals, eliminated the influence of Li Yuanyin, assigned tasks according to their talents and strength, and tried to satisfy most of the people.

Yan Keyi was born in the Yellow River Defense Army, and was a side line in the Chengdong Army. Du Yonghe ordered him to be at the forefront of Nanxiong and fought with the Jiangxi Green Battalion for days. Keyi did not complain about this, but only asked Du Yonghe to ensure his supply of ordnance and rations. Du Yonghe also tried his best to be satisfied.

Although Li Yuanyin could not enter Guangzhou, he occupied Zhaoqing. Du Yonghe definitely doesn't care about what he is doing.

Dong Fangce was a little dissatisfied with Du Yonghe, he was guarding in Deqing Prefecture, and he was also the head of a large army, and he didn't care about Du Yonghe in Zhaoqing.

Luo Chengyao was born in Zuo Liangyu, and he was also a sideline, and Du Yonghe asked him to guard Shaozhou. Cheng Yao was very unhappy, he cried and said, "Why do you go to Guangzhou to live happily and leave me to work hard in Shaozhou." After all, Cheng Yao couldn't resist Du Yonghe's order and was reluctant to stay in Shaoguan. This is actually a hidden danger.

Du Yonghe respected the authority of Hao Shangjiu of Chaozhou, and in fact no longer interfered in the affairs of Chaozhou. Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui's whole army landed and surrounded Chaozhou City, Hao Shangjiu was not an opponent, so he had to support it. Du Yonghe has no intention and no power to rescue, Hao Shangjiu will not wait for death, this is the second hidden danger.

Li Shilian, the chief soldier of Huizhou, is not a faction of Chengdong, he was originally a Chinese army under Tian Yang, and he was barely from Liu Zeqing's department, which is also an unstable factor.

What Du Yonghe really grasped in his hands was the Guangzhou Mansion.

Guangzhou Prefecture has the most desired target of the order, Foshan Town.
