Historically, after Mao Mingshan stole Wang Yi's head with Lu Yuding and Jiang Han, he participated in Wang Jiang and Shen Tiaolun's revival of Dalan Mountain in the tenth year of Yongli to respond to Chen Liuyu's troops in Zhoushan, and it was not until half a year later that the Qing army sent General Ninghai, Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen Yierde and Zhejiang Qing Army to encircle and suppress Siming Mountain again before besieging Zhoushan for the second time.

But now, because Wang Jiang escaped the encirclement and suppression of Siming Mountain by the Qing army last year, and Chen Wen's sudden rise to strength, the Qing army has strengthened the supervision of Wang Yi's hanging head, and Lu Yuding and others have to revise the previous plan. Originally, with the martial courage of Mao Mingshan and Jiang Han, coupled with the suddenness of the attack, it was not impossible to get out, but when Mao Mingshan found out that the commander who intercepted the Qing army was Xu Lei, the whole person was burned with resentment, and the last fireworks bloomed five years in advance under the Wangjing Gate.

At the same time, Lu Yuding drove the boat away under the cover of the battle at the head of the city, and did not abandon the boat until a hidden place, changed into his original clothes and returned home, hiding Wang Yi's head in the study, waiting for the day when Wang Yi can be buried in a beautiful way.

More than ten days later, in Yiwu, hundreds of miles away, most of the basic training tasks of the thousands of recruits recently recruited by Chen Wenxin were completed.

Due to the establishment of the first bureau of the Nantang Battalion as a blueprint, the weapons and equipment of the Mandarin Duck Formation and other arms have not changed, and the training of these recruits is no different.

It's just that now that the Qing army is about to encircle and suppress, and under the urgency of time, it is not as good as on Tiantai Mountain, so Chen Wen has to train according to the process and content when he was in Dalan Mountain. Coupled with the fact that there are too many new recruits, the ratio to veterans has reached seven to one. He had to come up with a completely different way of organizing.

The urgency of the Qing army's encirclement and suppression led to the short training time of the recruits, and the number of veterans was too small, and it was impossible to break up the mixed formation again under the current situation of the great enemy. Chen Wen had a cohesive problem that he had never encountered before.

In order to reduce its impact on the combat effect as much as possible, Chen Wen decided to organize the Mandarin Duck Array killer teams of the newly organized bureaus according to their origins and relatives, so as to strengthen their combat capabilities by relying on the cohesion of their fellow villagers and clans. Such an approach was not uncommon in China, including the Swiss in Europe, who used it to strengthen their armies against the Austrian cavalry.

However, this kind of organization is extremely unfavorable to Chen Wen, who is not a native of his hometown, and the old Nantang Battalion, where most of the members come from Ningshao, Taizhou and other places, especially the risk of being hollowed out by local clans and families.

But at present, the Qing army is about to encircle and suppress it. If this is not the case, just relying on the more than 1,000 groups of old Nantang battalions that are not well organized, it is very likely to be consumed by the Qing army with an absolute superiority of troops.

With an understanding of history. Chen Wen seized this period of the last one to resist the Qing Dynasty in Zhejiang, which was also a fleeting opportunity. However, the Qing army will definitely not tolerate his continued development, especially in such an inland prefecture, once there is another defense hole, it is likely to be a large-scale turmoil.

That's why. I want to survive, develop, and even sweep all over the place. First of all, we had to find a way to resist this initial counterattack. As for the future, that is later, without the present, there will be no future!

The training of this new army continued, and the Qing army was not idle in Jinhuafu City, less than a hundred miles away. In addition to the remnants of Ma Jinbao's standard battalion in Jinhua Town, three battalions from Quzhou, Yanzhou, and Chuzhou also arrived in Jinhua Fucheng successively, and the standard battalion from Dinghai in the same period also arrived in Quzhou smoothly. After making the necessary rest, he entered Jinhua Mansion to participate in the encirclement and suppression as planned.

Because the forces are not yet superior. After learning about the battle process from the Qing soldiers who fled back, he did not dare to send troops to pick up Chen Wen's tiger whiskers.

However, the military operation had not yet begun, and Li Zhifang also came up with a new response to Chen Wen's anti-Qing propaganda after Ma Jinbao's arrival. And the content of his propaganda is also very simple, that is, the just-concluded Battle of Zhoushan.

Due to the fact that the outcome of the Qing army's encirclement and suppression of Siming Mountain in the fourth year of Yongli did not change much, even if the Zhoushan Ming army successfully contained Ma Jinbao's Qing army on the southern front by Taizhou, but due to the crucial Hengshui Yang First War, Ruan Jin was accidentally captured and killed as in history, and the outcome of the Zhoushan First Battle did not change much.

After the Qing army captured Zhoushan City, it carried out a brutal massacre, and more than 10,000 people were martyred.

During this period, Liu Shixun, the general of Anyang, who was in charge of the city guard, Zhang Mingyang, the governor of the capital, and Ma Tai, the chief soldier of Zhongzhen, were martyred in battle; Lu Jianguo's concubine Chen and others threw themselves into the well and died, and the Xigong concubine Rong and the prince Liuge were captured by the Qing army; Zhang Kentang, a member of the Cabinet University, Wu Zhongluan, a secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Li Xiangzhong, a secretary of the Ministry of War, Zhu Yongyou, a secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zheng Zunjian, an envoy to the general government, Dong Zhining, a member of the Military Department, and Zhu Yangshi, a staff member of the Ministry of War, committed suicide and martyrdom.

At the same time, Li Changxiang, the left attendant of the military department, Zhang Yunfei, the loyal guard, Yin Wenju, Cai Yingxuan, Tu Denghua, etc.; Jin Yunyan, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army under Zhang Mingzhen, Qiu Yuanji of the Ministry of Rites, Sun Yanling of the Ministry of Households, Ni Sanyi, etc.; Li Shimi of Taifu Temple, Zhou Shili of the Central Army of the Ministry of War, Deputy, Sen, Du, Shouzhou Mingchen, Zheng Guohua, Wang Peiyuan, etc., successively descended to the Qing Dynasty, "all distributed good deeds in the mainland."

The Battle of Zhoushan ended in the defeat of the Ming army, and Li Zhifang relied on the strength of Ma Jinbao and the Qing army to control the counties and hype about the matter, in order to break the morale of the Ming army and prepare for the upcoming encirclement and suppression.

Chen Wen knew these things very well, and according to the records of later generations, he knew even more that in fact, the loss of the Ming army's strength in this battle was not very large, but because the base area was captured, most of the family members who stayed there were martyred, so that the morale was low and unable to fight again.

Coupled with the uncertain life at sea later, it also led to the disappointment of some generals in the future, including Zhang Ying, the general of Jingyang, the governor of the prefecture, Ruan Shu and Ruan Yu, the new attack on Huhou Ruan Mei, and the commander-in-chief Ruan Jie and Wei Bin of the governor went to Fujian Min'an to surrender to the Qing side. And Lu Jianguo, Zhang Mingzhen and others had to take the rest of the troops to Zheng Chenggong, and the history of the Ming army in Zhoushan was completely over.

However, Chen Wen was not able to come up with strong evidence to refute it. In addition, the Ming army in Zhoushan was unable to fight again. It is even more impossible to cross Taizhou to aid Jinhua, and the reality that the Qing army is strong still exists, even if it can be refuted. He didn't have to.

Up to now, Li Zhifang has caused a lot of trouble for Chen Wen, although most of them can only play a disgusting role, but this is already extremely capable among the Manchu officials that Chen Wen has come into contact with. However, Li Zhifang was not a celebrity in the Internet of Chen Wen's time, and the protagonist of the rebellion of the three feudatories was also Wu Sangui rather than Geng Jingzhong, so that Chen Wen at this moment never thought that the current Jinhua Mansion governor would be the later governor of Zhejiang.

Li Zhifang's propaganda caused a certain panic in the Ming army-occupied areas, and at the same time suppressed some of the imminent signs of resistance in the Qing army-occupied areas of Jinhua Prefecture. This made it more difficult for Chen Wen to obtain materials from these places.

Since Li Zhifang came up with counterrevolutionary propaganda, Chen Wen consciously had to come up with revolutionary propaganda to deal with it, so as not to be overwhelmed by the momentum of the Qing army in Jinhua Mansion.

In the new text. Chen Wen admitted that due to the distance between the two places, he did not know the specific situation of Zhoushan. However, he hoped that the elders of Jinhua Mansion could understand that if the Ming army led by him was unlucky, the Qing army would inevitably slaughter Yiwu and Dongyang. and will carry out retaliatory massacres in subordinate villages and towns. And those righteous men who secretly donated materials to the Ming army. Even those who were only suspected by the Qing army of donating to the Ming army would inevitably be retaliated against by the Qing army.

In the current situation, no matter what happened in Zhoushan, which was hundreds of miles away, the gentry and people of Jinhua could only save their lives by pinning their hopes on the Ming army to repel the Qing army.

The purpose of Chen Wen's propaganda is almost the same as that of the previous article, which is to use the fear caused by the actions of the Manchus and Ma Jinbao, who is more intuitive to the locals, over the years, to arouse the desire to resist, so as to stabilize the areas occupied by the Ming army and at the same time create mutual suspicion and confrontation between the soldiers and civilians in the rear of the Qing army.

After the new document was issued, Chen Wen's materials from the areas occupied by the Qing army were still not improved, but the two counties of Yiwu and Dongyang began to rise in a straight line. Even the recruits in the barracks consciously increased their training, as if they were preparing for the final carnival feast.

The great war, which had been regarded as the last madness by the local gentry, could begin at any moment. A few days later, the old camp of the Ming Army of Dalanshan, which was originally stationed in Tiantai Mountain, had also crossed Xinchang and Shengxian counties and entered the boundary of Dongyang County under the escort of the remaining troops of the Nantang Battalion.

Upon hearing the news, Chen Wen left his military affairs behind and rushed to Hulu Town in the north of Dongyang County to meet him, and the ships he had prepared before could also transport the old camp to the county seat of Dongyang County and Yiwu County, the ruling centers of the Ming army, as quickly as possible. But before he could get there, he was intercepted by Yu Guowang, who came with the advance troops.

Seeing Yu Guowang with his own eyes, Chen Wen couldn't believe his eyes at all. Less than two months ago, they also captured Tiantai County side by side, and although Yu Guowang was born early, it was only a few few locks mixed with black hair. But when I saw him again, he was already full of white hair, and there was not a single green silk.

In the military tent, listening to Yu Guowang's tearful narration of everything that happened in Chen Wen's backstage state, especially outside Linhai County, the battle of first victory and then defeat, as well as the news of the martyrdom of Jin Tang, Gao Yiqing and others, Chen Wendeng understood everything.

Thinking of the news of the Battle of Zhoushan that he had obtained from the Qing army's occupation before, his heart was instantly overwhelmed with condemnation and remorse.

After arriving at Tiantai Mountain, Chen Wen began to consider the Battle of Zhoushan and the issue of Taizhou, but the answer he got was that the Battle of Hengshuiyang could not be reversed, and the defense of Zhoushan City could not defeat the Qing army unless he had at least more than 5,000 elites like the Nantang Battalion. But such a large-scale army is not only unable to be formed with the remaining materials of the old camp, but even if it can be formed, Zhang Mingzhen will never let him land on the island, after all, the Yin Jian of the dynasty is not far away, in the world of Xia Hou.

The terrain of Taizhou is mountainous, not to mention the fact that it separates all the counties under it, and the land is not enough to support the Ming army of the Lu Jian State system to form a larger army here to resist the attack of the Qing army, and then regain the lost territory.

Coupled with the sequelae of the Battle of Siming Lake, Chen Wen, as Wang Yi's general, was also unable to trust the largest mountain in the Ming army system of the Lu Jian State - the Xunchen group headed by Zhang Mingzhen, Marquis of Dingxi. Therefore, he decided to take the risk of taking advantage of the Qing army's defensive loopholes during that period to attack Jinhua Mansion and try to regain the lost territory alone.

But when the news arrived, the Battle of Zhoushan failed, and tens of thousands of people were slaughtered; Taizhou won the battle first and then lost, Yu Guowang and Jintang, the two largest local anti-Qing forces, were almost wiped out, and other Ming troops began to be vigorously encircled and suppressed by the Qing army.

There were too many sacrifices, even if he couldn't do anything about them, but the regret that he couldn't change the tragedy as a traverser still filled his heart.

A moment later, forcing reason to regain control of his brain, Chen Wen also had to face the heaviness that had been pressing on Yu Guowang's heart for all this time.

"Why, why is this happening?!" (To be continued.) )
