Chapter 47: Rewriting (I)

Ma Jinbao's line was located in a large mansion near the county government, and after the Ming army entered the city, under the guidance of the Qing army, a large group of cavalry quickly arrived there and monitored the entire area. Immediately afterwards, the vanguard of the Yiwu battalion also surrounded the entire area with a hurried march to follow-up, just waiting for the artillery team to follow up and then blast open the outer wall or gate, so as to enter the mansion.

When the news came that the Qing army in Taipingmen resisted the change of guard and the officers who led the team were captured, Ma Jinbao ordered his soldiers to load the goods into the truck in case of contingency. However, this unexpected event came much faster than expected.

As soon as the goods obtained for many years were loaded, the news came that those soldiers from the Quzhou Green Battalion in Taipingmen had thrown themselves into the Ming army, and the city was no longer safe, and Ma Jinbao couldn't take care of these things outside his body, so he hurriedly beckoned his soldiers to get on his horse and flee, trying to escape from other city gates that were not occupied by the Ming army. As for the soldiers under his command, how can they still care about preserving their strength when their lives are about to be lost. But as soon as he walked out of the gate with his front feet, he was blocked back by the Ming cavalry who had just arrived.

Outside the mansion, the Ming army, who saw Ma Jinbao being blocked back, couldn't wait any longer, and hurriedly prepared to take a ladder to enter the mansion after the infantry arrived.

However, before the artillery of the Ming army arrived, and even the infantry ladder was not erected, Ma Jinbao was opened and surrendered by his righteous son with a knife on his neck. And this timely and anyway "hero" guided the Ming army to control the carriage containing goods, and at the same time, he led the Ming army non-stop to collect all the other inconvenient property, children, confidential documents, weapons and armor in the house, and did his duty to lead the party. Thinking about it, it was very similar to Ma Jinbao when he tried his best to recruit his colleagues when he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but he was also worthy of the relationship between father and son.

Soon, the Ming army that entered the city took control of the city gates, markets, bridges, county offices, warehouses, military camps, and even county schools in Longyou County. It was when the Ming army arrived at the dock. I saw a few dilapidated boats slowly sailing towards the north bank of the Qujiang River, leaving only some unburned hulls and the corpses of the town standard camp and water camp all over the village in Yiqian Village.

When the Ming army entered the city, Qi Xiufeng, the judge of the general army, assigned the military judges of each ministry to personally take the pacifying soldiers and soldiers to control the places where Ma Jinbao Xingyuan, the county government, warehouses and military camps needed to take inventory, so as to prevent the officers and soldiers from being greedy for ink and seizing them. Immediately afterwards, the accompanying staff, led by the confidential clerk Zhou Jingting, quickly arrived everywhere and began to count the seizures.

According to everything planned in advance, the Ming army controlled the entire Longyou County in an orderly manner. Only the way the city was broken was slightly different from the plan, so that a gap had just been carved into the underground ancient city wall, and the sappers who could fill it with gunpowder and blast it only needed to be enlarged had to supervise the people to refill the tunnel to prevent it from being used by the Qing army or others who might arrive.

After Chen Wen arrived at the county office, the officers and staff members who had entered the city began to report on the progress of their respective responsibilities. Primarily, the actual storage in the county government and warehouse did not match the records, and there were many goods looted by the Qing army in the barracks, which were all due meanings, and only the possible value range of the goods in Ma Jinbao's line still startled Chen Wen, who had already made a certain amount of psychological preparation.

Silver should be between one hundred and one hundred and fifty taels. The gold is not less than 50,000 taels, antiques, calligraphy, paintings, jewelry, and jewelry are countless, only the woman who was taken captive in the house still showed a certain sincerity, and it is estimated that this guy has already planned to change places and rob again......

Thinking of the lucrative conditions that Ma Jinbao took out when he wanted to buy a way to live, Chen Wen really didn't know if this guy was sacrificing his life or money, or if he didn't know how the word death was written.

With great interest, people escorted Ma Jinbao and the officers of the Zhenbiao battalion and the Manchu officials in the county seat, but the first scene they saw was that Ma Jinbao knelt directly on the ground and kneeled to the position where he should stand. The words in his mouth slammed the ground, and there was no bearing that a military general who had commanded a large army should have. It is clearly a speculative thief begging for forgiveness in front of the official.

Since last year's attack on Jinhua Mansion, Chen Wen's Ming army and Ma Jinbao and his Manchu Jinhua Town Standard Battalion have been fighting on and off for almost a year, and the combat effectiveness of this Qing army is probably stronger than the Shaoxing Green Battalion, which has fought several times before.

The officers and soldiers of the Zhenbiao battalion were disposed of separately after interrogation, and there was no difference from before. Only at this moment, the fate of this Qing army marshal who is still desperately kowtowing and begging for mercy has long been doomed.

Looking at the begging of his former opponent regardless of his dignity, Chen Wen's interest just now was gone, and he didn't even bother to say the ridicule he had thought of earlier. On the contrary, the officers in the army who were from Jinhua Mansion scolded Ma Jinbao one by one in the tent, so that he could not directly let people take him down, but these officers vented their anger due to hatred. As long as you don't do it, because this dog traitor still has a certain amount of surplus value to squeeze.

After waving off the captives, Chen Wen began to arrange his next move. The capture of Longyou was only the beginning, just like the previous attempt to cross Lingxi, it was only a prelude to the recovery of Quzhou Mansion, the removal of the threat on the Western Front before the Qing army's strength in the southwest battlefield was tightened, and then to move north to Ningshao.

This year was the most scarce year for the Qing army in the next few years, and it was necessary to make good use of this time to achieve greater results in order to eliminate the Manchu enemy more quickly. So, after a few days of rest and recuperation, Chen Wen led his troops to continue westward. As for this county seat, it is still managed by his staff for the time being, and after the messenger of the victory returns to Jinhua, he will let Cao Conglong arrange civil officials to govern it.

………………

As the Governor Battalion and the Quzhou Green Battalion were driven back by the Ming army, Longyou County was completely isolated, and the entire Fucheng once again fell into a state of panic. When the news of Longyou being captured by the Ming army came, a large number of wealthy gentry hurriedly fled with their families, lest they would be surrounded by the Ming army in the city and become victims of the battle between the Ming and Qing armies.

On the tenth day of the fifth month of the sixth year of Yongli, the officials and staff under Chen Jin's curtain in the governor's yamen were already busy to the extent that they did not occupy any land. A few days ago, the envoy of Quzhou Shuiying rushed back to Fucheng to complain bitterly about the crimes of Ma Jinbaohuo and his subordinates, and as a result, the front foot controlled all the families of the Zhenbiao camp, and the news that Longyou County was captured by the Ming army came from the back foot. At this moment, some of the soldiers of the town standard battalion who escaped by luck also returned to Fucheng, and an officer from the Wenzhou Green Battalion was kneeling in front of Chen Jin to tell the details of the fall of the city.

From the Ming army approaching the city to the excavation trying to collapse; From the failure of the Qing army's surprise attack at night, to Ma Jinbao's massacre of generals at the Hongmen Banquet, combined with the report of Quzhou Shuiying, Chen Jin quickly understood the whole process thoroughly.

But even so, he couldn't figure it out at the moment. Over the years, it has always been the infighting of the Ming army that has benefited the Qing army, but this time, there was a ridiculous thing about the Qing army's infighting being taken advantage of by the Ming army, which was really beyond his imagination.

However, Chen Jin forgot that these green battalion soldiers, and even many of the soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, were all from the Ming army and rogue soldiers, and when the Qing army had an absolute advantage, under high pressure, these traitors were naturally more united than the Ming army with their own ghosts. But at this moment, on the local battlefield of Quzhou, the two armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties changed their offensive and defensive positions, and after the failure of the raid of the Dubiao battalion, the rest of the Qing army was extremely panicked, and the matter of Ma Jinbaohuo and Quzhou Water Camp became very normal.

The truth in this is not complicated, and he can figure it out quickly as long as he calms down a little in the game. However, it doesn't matter whether you want to figure it out or not at the moment, the offensive of the Ming army is the biggest threat at the moment.

According to the report of the horse scout, the Ming army had already crossed the Dingyang River when the Qing army in Quzhou had lost the confidence to go out to intercept it, and it would surround the capital city of Quzhou by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.

At this moment, there are only the Governor Battalion, the Quzhou Green Battalion, the reinforcements of the Chuzhou Green Battalion that arrived in advance, and some regimental training and the dilapidated Quzhou Water Battalion, which can no longer fight, while the Wenzhou Green Battalion and the Fujian Jianning Battalion are still on the way. Even though the Eight Banners of Hangzhou Garrison and the Second Battalion of Tibiao and Fubiao had already set off, they could not quench their thirst from far away, and with these reinforcements with weak combat effectiveness, Chen Jin did not have any confidence in holding the capital city of Quzhou.

The messenger sent to Jiangxi for help had already been dispatched, and a relatively elite force had to try to contain the Ming army, so that he could wait until the day when the Eight Banners garrisoned in Hangzhou entered Jinhua Mansion and Chen Wen was forced to withdraw his troops.
