Out of Hangzhou Bay, there are more mountains and hills in the central and southern parts of Zhejiang. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

From Shaoxing to Jinhua in the south, Yiwu is the first to bear it.

At this time, Yiwu is not a well-known small commodity distribution center in the world in the 21st century, Yiwu is just an ordinary Jiangnan fish and rice township, the Manchu Qing Dynasty also organized a group training in Yiwu's government, but it does not mean that as long as Yiwu soldiers must be elite soldiers, without Qi Nantang, they are still a group of rabble.

On the lamp hill in the north of Suxi Town, Yiwu. The cannon of the Fu Han army rang out, and puffs of red and yellow smoke filled the defensive positions of the Qing army.

The 16th Brigade of the 4th Division of the 1st Garrison Division, which was ordered to attack Jinhua Mansion, all looked at the Qing army and the people on the Lamp Mountain with a joke mentality.

"I'll bet fifty."

"I'll bet on sixty numbers......"

In the vanguard that was preparing to attack later, several officers looked very relaxed and even made bets on the battlefield. The stakes are not big, just a meal, the so-called 'fifty numbers', 'sixty numbers', do not refer to the silver money, but to the time that the Qing army endured in the poison gas.

The Fu Han army did not take the resistance of central and southern Zhejiang in its eyes at all, and there were few soldiers, not to mention, the hearts of the Qing soldiers in the south of Changzhou were shattered and broken, and the people and horses below, who really thought that they could resist it?

"Retreat......, retreat." After Wu Xiongguang's cousin Li Fan smelled the pungent chili pepper, he couldn't help coughing violently, he finally held back, half of his anger was gone, looked up at the heart-rending coughing sound on the entire battlefield, and gave an order in a dejected manner. Ding Yong, the militia group on the entire position, all retreated to Suxi Town, and at the same time, he also quickly reported the news to Wu Xiongguang.

Wu Xiongguang didn't expect to stop the Fu Han army at Lighting Mountain. He retreated from Hangzhou to Shaoxing, did not transfer to Ningbo, but led his troops to Jinhua Mansion and became the guest of Zheng Ting, the prefect of Jinhua.

The latter was a pure scholar, and he didn't know anything about the military, so he entrusted the entire government to Wu Xiongguang.

Wu Xiongguang's method was to take advantage of the small number of troops in the southward movement of the Fu Han army and block them, so that they could drag on for a day, which was a day's preparation time for Liangguang and Fujian.

Here in Yiwu, of course, he is guarded. dragged part of his main force to the mountains west of Suxi Town, and placed only one of Li Fan's soldiers to guard it directly north of Suxi Town. The Fu Han army took Suxi Town, and he did not interfere, but the Fu Han army wanted to continue from Suxi Town to Yiwu County, so Wu Xiongguang waved his troops to attack Suxi Town.

He had to force the strength of the regiment of the Fu Han Army to be consumed in the mountains with him!

However, what is the news sent by Li Fan now?

"Red and yellow?" Wu Xiongguang exclaimed.

The Fu Han army laid down the four positions outside Changzhou overnight, and the Qing soldiers outside only knew that the positions carefully arranged by Feng Sheng's forehead did not play a role, and were beaten down by the Fu Han army overnight, but the specific details are unknown, only that the Fu Han army used hundreds of cannons aimed at Changzhou that day and bombarded the old man for half a day......

Therefore, the special bullet method is still in a state of secrecy, and it cannot be said that no news has been leaked, but Wu Xiongguang obviously doesn't know. When the Fu Han army attacked Hangzhou, it did not use special bullets, but only bombarded with cannons, and then rushed with people, and the entire city of Hangzhou bottomed out.

As a result, it is now a dull stick, and Li Fan, who was beaten, has no fighting spirit in his heart. "The red one has a chili pepper flavor, and the yellow one is mustard, which must be mustard." Li Fan's least favorite thing about smelling mustard is the thing.

Li Fan, who was standing in front of Wu Xiongguang, lost his soul, that thing can be used to deal with the trench today, and Ming'er can also use them to deal with the camp. What else is going on in this battle?

Anhai is the magistrate of Qiantang, a member of the Han Army, and when Hangzhou was broken, he fled to Shaoxing with his family with Wu Xiongguang, and then transferred to Jinhua. Turning around and looking at Li Fan, who was still sluggish, he wrinkled his face and smiled bitterly: "Master Li, let's go." Go back and check the spots, and ask Bing Yong how he feels. "It's better to laugh than to cry, no way, his eldest son is still in the ditch and hasn't climbed out."

An Hai regretted dying in his heart, and for a while he felt that he was doing something positive? After a while, he felt that his son was not angry, and everyone else climbed out, but he was thrown into the battle.

Anhai's head is about to explode

"Brother Yixing...... "An Hai is already forty years old, and the eldest son is the same age as Li Fan, Li Fan treats An Hai as a person of the previous generation, and asked subconsciously, but before he finished speaking, his arm was pulled by someone, and he suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately smiled at An Hai. Yes, yes. I'll go back and make arrangements. ”

It's sad enough that someone's own son is gone, and if you ask again, it's just pouring salt on the wound.

The men of the Fourth Division caught the prisoners, and after a little interrogation, they knew that Wu Xiongguang had quietly pulled the team closer to the mountains to the west. Tuan Zheng snorted with a smile, "I also learned from Shandong's Lai Zhao." I don't want to think about how many small cannons Lao Tzu has here. ”

The same tactics fall on different subjects, and those are two outcomes.

How many small cannons did the Qing army have? How many mortars are there in the Fu Han Army? What's more, the Fourth Division still has Flying Thunder Cannons in its hands.

At present, the flying thunder artillery in the Fu Han army has been greatly reduced, but if it is reduced, there will still be a regimental system.

The more obvious the superiority of the Fu Han army, the more the number of flying thunder cannons was reduced. No way, for the sake of secrecy, this weapon is too easy to copy, and it is super easy to make, and it is very powerful.

The mortar opened fire at 3 p.m. that day. There are not many of them, only twenty of them, and they are all light mortars of about 100 catties. Two people were able to lift themselves up and run around, but even so, a cannon sound made Wu Xiongguangjun tremble. Behind the twenty mortar cannons are four flying thunder cannons.

Gunpowder packets and flowering shells exploded on the hillside stone ramparts, and special bullets smashed down in front and behind the chest wall of the rampart. The breastwork walls of the fortress made of stone and loess were shattered and blown apart little by little under the impact of the shells. And the intolerable gas bombs.

It was also at this time that caught up with the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River, and the rain from time to time brought a lot of trouble to the offensive of the Fu Han army.

"Their cannons must be knocked out, my lord, you have also seen the shelling of an hour this afternoon, how ruthless Chen Rehen's cannons are, most of them are flowering shells, and that flying thunder. As for the stockade we set up on the mountain, no matter how desperately the brothers reinforced, they couldn't stop the bombardment of others...... "If it hadn't rained in the evening, the Fu Han army would probably have taken Qilu Mountain at dusk."

Gao Doujin, who was broken through two lines of defense in two hours by the Fu Han army and lost all of Niutou Mountain, shouted loudly, and after an hour of shelling, he was about to have a shadow in his heart. Moreover, this mountain is not a real high mountain and a steep mountain, and if the opponent's artillery group is not removed, Gao Doujin does not think that his own family and horse club are the opponents of the Fu Han army in front of him.

Wu Xiongguang is also a hero with shortness of breath, and the gap between the two sides is a real existence, how can you let him erase it instantly?

I thought that I was hiding in the mountains, and the artillery advantage of the Fu Han army was weakened, and there were back and forth on both sides. Who knew that the morale of his troops had weakened to the point where it was now, and as long as the infantry of the Fu Han army charged with swords and guns and bayonets, they all turned around and ran away. Swords, spears, and bayonets have become more powerful than guns.

Li Fan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Brother, how many times have we fought with Chen Rei's men?" Who doesn't know that their cannons are powerful, but how easy is it to take out their artillery groups? Think about it, since Chen rebelled to raise his army, no matter whether the rebels won or lost, have their artillery groups been defeated? ”

"Sensei is thinking about what the odds are. We can drag on for a day, and we still have to stay up tonight. "The rain outside stopped for two quarters of an hour. At dusk, there is no rainbow in the sky.

Li Fan's words were not wrong, the Fu Han army really didn't have a moment of leisure at night. They attracted the attention of the Qing army with a frontal feint, and then sent sharp soldiers to quietly flank and touch. When the Qing army noticed, the distance was enough to throw a grenade, and they took Qilu Mountain in one attack.

……

In May, two shuttle ships that traveled to Ningbo in Guangdong and then turned north finally saw the mouth of the Yangtze River.

Robert Peel and Luis Paul Ribeiro, as well as the Dutch representative Michel Kruls, were on the same shuttle ship, while the other was carried by François Philippe Perrier, a representative of the French East India Company, and Robin Lustig, a representative of the Swedish East India Company. Britain and France did not deal with each other in Europe, and the contradictions extended smoothly to China. The rivalry between the two most powerful countries in Europe has always been all-encompassing.

John Bull is missing a Prussia, and the Gallic Rooster is missing Spain and Austria, two of which are dispensable in Chinese trade and the other is close to being landlocked.

The Seven Years' War was over, but its effects were far more than a counterweight to Europe.

Robert had never thought of coming to Shanghai in person, but the news from the north kept coming from the north, which gave rise to endless curiosity in his heart. Especially in the Battle of Changzhou, the news that the Fu Han army continued to bombard the Qing army's positions with more than 500 cannons made Robert incredulous.

So he chose to take a trip to Shanghai in person. He wants to see the army of the Fu Han army with his own eyes, and he wants to see the soldiers of the Fu Han army with his own eyes. Five hundred cannons, magical cannon-making skills, is it real or fake?

During his stay in Ningbo, Robert asked the ship's sailors to go ashore to buy him as many newspapers as he could. From Ningbo to Shanghai, he kept reading the newspapers, looking at the newspapers.

"The Chinese want to build a brand new trading city in Shanghai!"

Robert read the newspaper and couldn't help but scream, and Ribeiro and Crulls knew about it.

The Chinese believe that Shanghai is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, at the north-south point of China's east coastline, with the rich Yangtze River waterway as its economic extension, and as long as the policy is implemented, the prospects there will be limitless. Shanghai will become the center of China's foreign trade!

Although the article only briefly mentioned overseas trade, it made Robert and Crulls very excited, and Ribeiro trembled.

If China opens up Shanghai, the city in the most prosperous area of China, in the center of China's east coast, it will inevitably attract countless overseas merchant ships to flock in, and it will inevitably affect Guangzhou's position at the heart of China's foreign trade system. Naturally, Macau, where the Portuguese are located, will also be greatly affected.

Robert didn't know if the people on the other ship also knew the news, and he thought he should have known. Now there are not only them on the two barracudas, but also people from the rebel junta, each of whom speaks a Western language. Although they are not very fluent and very correct, they are not a problem in daily communication with each other.

"The Tatar government has always been very conservative in foreign trade. If the rebel junta can change the policy of the Tatar government, it will mean immense wealth to us. This official meeting with the rebel junta may be the beginning of a great golden age! ”

The closer he got to Shanghai, the more excited Robert became. As long as he thinks of the 'best outcome,' he finds it difficult to hold himself.

Ribeiro was in great pain, and he suddenly realized that the parliament had made a serious mistake in its assessment of the matter. If the Chinese were willing to open up, expand their trading ports, or even open their doors in more ways, the British would not hesitate to abandon Portugal. The same Orientals, the two sides seem to have very different attitudes towards foreign trade.

No Western country knows more about Western countries. For the greater good, every Western country can not hesitate to give up its closest allies.

In this respect, the Western world is completely different from the Eastern world.

Taking advantage of the noon sunshine, the two shuttle boats that sailed into the Wusong port were not noticeable at all. There is no trace of war here. In addition to the artillery batteries under construction outside the port, there are also looming artillery positions. Then there is the Wusong Wharf, which is being expanded, and the laborers who work the construction site like ants are dressed in gray clothes, and there is a big word 'prisoner' on the front and back, they are obviously Qing soldiers who were captured in the war.

"Gentlemen, welcome to Shanghai, and I hope that we can both have a satisfactory outcome in the next few days of talks. Now, please take your salutes, get into the carriage outside, and go to a safe place. It was the people from the Industry and Commerce Department who came forward to entertain these foreigners, Han Peng looked at Robert and the others in front of him with very peaceful eyes, and did not show disdain. Because this is a decision made by Chen Ming personally. Maintain a certain amount of respect for Westerners!

"You all know about our secret camp, so you must have heard of the sticky pole there in the Manchu Dynasty."

"These people have always done anything to fight us. In order to ensure your safety, we have completely banned the welcoming ceremony that was originally prepared. I hope you all Haihan! ”

Han Teng always had an amiable smile on his face when he spoke, and he said that the interpreters who had prepared for the Fu Han military were translating word for word. Robert and Perrier glanced at each other, showing nothing on the surface, but they both felt a faint chill in their hearts.

Yes, the Tatar government also has a very powerful spy organization. It's just that this spy organization has always been suppressed by the secret camp!

"Mr. Ribeiro." Han Teng's gaze turned to the old friend of the Fu Han Army again, once born and twice matured, Ribeiro is not an old friend, "We already know your intention to come this time. Here are the conditions for the return of prisoners of war from the Portuguese side. ”

There was no room for bargaining, and Portugal either obediently sent something and picked up Blanco and the others; Or just watch the Fu Han army send Blanco and them into hard labor.

No matter what the Portuguese think, the place in Macau, Chen Ming must take it back. (To be continued.) )
