"Junmen, Wu Gou's warship has caught up! General Ji didn't entangle them all, and at least half of the Wu Dog warships chased them up! The Qing army lookout on the lookout tower screamed loudly.

"God-damned Wu Dog, it's really shameless!" Cursing a swear word, Yang Jie hurriedly returned to the flagship of the Qing army's naval division, and when he took a closer look upstream, he found that the situation was just as reported by the lookout, a fleet of Wu troops composed of more than 20 large and medium-sized warships and many small ships, taking advantage of the north wind and smooth water that was still blowing at the beginning of spring, was rushing towards the Qing army's troop transport fleet with murderous spirit. Further upstream, it was the sound of killing and earth-shattering cannons, and it was obvious that the fleet behind the Ji Dynasty Zuodian arranged by Yang Jie had been entangled by the Wu Army's naval division, and it was no longer able to provide reinforcements for the main troop transport fleet.

"If you lose, it depends on how many soldiers you can keep." Muttering helplessly in his heart, Yang Jie turned to the deputy general Li Lian next to him and asked, "How far is it from the east bank of Poyang Lake?" ”

"Back to the military gate, there are still thirty miles." Li Lian replied quickly.

"Ignore Wu Dog's chasers!" Yang Jie decisively ordered: "Order all boats to throw all the useless grain and grass off the boat, reduce the load of the boats, open the sails at full speed, and land on the east shore of Poyang Lake at full speed!" Then tell the soldiers of the boats that we can't stop the pursuit of Wu Gou, if we want to survive, we will take out the strength to eat milk and paddle and shake! ”

"Piercing!" Li Lian hit a thousand, and quickly went down to give the order, so that the trumpeter could quickly play the flag. Zhangtai Bei Ziye, who had been hiding next to him, screamed in horror, "Landing on the east bank of Poyang Lake? Why not go straight to Anqing? What if Wu Dog crosses the lake to chase and kill? ”

Yang Jie was silent, he didn't bother to pay attention to Zhangtai Beiziye, who was extremely despised by himself and the soldiers of the Qing army, his face was gloomy, and he just nervously observed the movements of the Wu army's pursuers. At this time, the Qing warships that received the order had already begun to throw their baggage, throwing useless food, weapons and equipment down the Yangtze River one by one, in order to reduce the weight of the hull and increase the speed of the ship, but the use of this was obviously not very great, not much time, the lightly armed and fast-forward Wu army warships still chased to the tail of the Qing fleet, the muskets and artillery on the ship fired together, bows and crossbows and arrows were fired together, hail raindrops generally smashed on the head of the Qing fleet, the Qing army troop transport ships were shot countless times, and the Qing army was defeated in the deck. Then there was a terrible screaming and crying sound.

"Boom! Bang! Bang! In the continuous roar of artillery, one after another the guns of the Qing army troop carriers tilted, or the hull was broken, or the mast was broken, and more flowering shells fell directly on the deck, and the deck of the Qing soldiers was full of flesh and blood.

"Boom!" A cannonball fell next to the flagship of the Qing army, grazing the side of the flagship ship and falling into the water and exploding, splashing and shaking violently, so frightened that Zhangtai Bei Ziye screamed for killing pigs, and peed his pants on the spot. Yang Jie was expressionless, and just ordered: "Quickly send someone to check the hull of the ship to see if it has been blown up by Wu Gou's shells." ”

The soldiers led the order to go, but Zhangtai Beizi pounced on him, pulling Yang Jie's sleeve and crying, "General Yang, Yang Junmen, what should I do?" What to do? What are we going to do? ”

"What's the hurry? More powerful is yet to come! Yang Jie couldn't help yelling, and then sneered and said: "When Wu Gou's warship rushes into our troop transport fleet, then it will be called real terror." If half of our troop carriers can land on the east shore of Poyang Lake, it will already be blessed by the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty. ”

"What? What's more? The screams of Zhangtai Bei Ye became even more miserable, and he almost collapsed on the deck in fear. Yang Jie shook off his pull, and stood at the stern of the boat to see the Wu army's warships chasing the soldiers, and when the Wu army's warships caught up with the rear of the Qing army's troop transport fleet, they really threw countless alcohol incendiary bombs at the Qing ships that were heavy and slow because of too many troops, which quickly ignited the Qing warships, and the Qing soldiers ran for their lives in the sea of fire, struggling in pain, crying and shaking the sky, and jumping into the Yangtze River with fire.

Seeing this, Yang Jie gently closed his eyes, he couldn't bear to continue looking at it, and muttered in his mouth: "Defeated, we lost, today we lost too miserably." Before he finished speaking, Yang Jie was already in tears.

As Yang Jie said, the day of the first month of the first year of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the twenty-third day of the first month of the thirteenth year of Kang Mazi was indeed a day when the Qing army was defeated in front of the Wu army. Prior to this, although the Qing army had several more miserable defeats in front of the Wu army, it was quite commemorative that this Jiujiang Battle was not only the first big defeat of the Qing army in Jiangxi in front of the Wu army, but also the first absolute victory victory won by Lu Fatzi from the Qing army since he led the army. Just like the description of the mite relics of later generations, the blood of the soldiers of the Jiujiang Qing Dynasty once again stained the top of the number one Qing Dynasty and the scourge of the Qing Dynasty, Lu Fatzi.

For the Qing army, this is a very unconvincing defeat, Jiujiang's Qing generals and Qing soldiers are all men, all of them are Qing heroes, even in the face of the absolute weapon advantage of the Qing annihilation army fat army did not show weakness, played the prestige of the Qing Dynasty soldiers, but also played the backbone of the Qing soldiers, even at the last moment did not give up resistance, are still fighting desperately, resisting with all their might - only in the boss side of the problem, this made Wu Dog lucky, I picked up this big bargain.

No matter how unconvinced you are, it's useless, after three major battles in four days, the Jiujiang Qing army, which has 32,000 defenders and 7,000 sailors to support it, was almost completely annihilated, and was killed by the fat army that was basically equal to the strength of the own army, and the blood flowed like a river, only more than 4,000 sailors and less than 3,000 troops escaped from Poyang Lake, and the remaining 30,000 troops were either annihilated by the fat army or captured by the fat army. What's even worse is that Jiujiang City, the defense center of the Mite Qing army in northern Jiangxi, was captured by the Fat Army in a battle, and the two major towns of the Mite Qing Army in the northern Jiangxi battlefield, Anqing and Nanchang, were also cut off by the Fat Army, facing the dilemma of fighting separately. There are also mountains of grain and grass in Jiujiang City, all of which have fallen into the hands of the fat army, which has solved the fundamental problem of the fat man's lack of money and food at once, and greatly reduced the logistical dependence on the rear of the Biaoyuan.

The news spread, northern Jiangxi was shaken, and the Qing army in Jiujiang was even more shocked when they used Jiancheng to drag the fat army for a period of time and then sent reinforcements to pick up the cheap Anqing Qing army and the Qing army in Nanchang, and sent messengers to Hukou County west of Poyang Lake to contact the defeated troops in Jiujiang to understand the battle process and the specific combat strength of the Wu army. In this way, Zhangtai Bei Ziye, who fled to the mouth of the lake and was frightened, inevitably began to be dumbfounded, and did not know how to answer the questions from Hilgen, Hargaqi, Zhao Guoqi, Xi Bu and others - confessing and lenient, isn't that a prison seat?

The headache is not Zhangtai Bei Ziye alone, and our Lu Fat Man is also extremely concerned about this problem at present - it is not easy to meet such an excellent enemy as Zhangtai Bei Ziye, Lu Fatzi, who has always been careful in planning, naturally does not want to miss it, and naturally wants to squeeze more oil and water from this rare good Bei Ziye, and harm some Qing Dynasty soldiers. However, the Jiujiang War commanded by Zhangtai Bei Ziye is like this bear, what can Lu Fatzi do to help Zhangtai Bei Ziye get rid of this crisis?

The problem is indeed tricky, until the fat army moved the handsome tent into the former Qing army headquarters in Jiujiang City, Lu Fat Man has not figured out any good way to help this unlucky Bei Ziye. In the early morning of the next day, when Lu Fatzi was still racking his brains for this matter, a group of main generals of the Fat Man's Army had already come to visit, and unanimously asked Lu Fatzi to send troops as soon as possible while the iron was hot, or cross the lake to chase and kill the defeated troops of the Qing army in Jiujiang, or take the opportunity to go south, take advantage of the sharp front, and send troops to attack Nanchang City, another important town west of Poyang Lake.

"Don't rush, don't rush." In the face of the unanimous request of the generals, Lu Fatzi shook his fat head like a rattle and explained: "Since the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, our army has fought three major battles in four days, and the soldiers are already very tired, and it is not suitable to fight continuously. Moreover, the vitality of the sailors full of dogs still exists, and the superiority of our army on the water is not obvious, and the battle across the lake at this time is not very graspable. ”

"Then we can hit Nanchang first." Gao Dejie, who was in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, couldn't wait to say: "Brother Lu, do you think this is okay, let the army rest for two days, two days later, you stay in Jiujiang City, I will lead the troops to fight Nanchang, if you don't take Nanchang City, I vow not to collect the troops." ”

"Brother Gao, I understand your feelings, but I think it's better for us to be cautious." Lu Fatzi still shook his head and said solemnly: "Brother Gao, you also saw the siege of Jiujiang yesterday, we have shaken the hearts of the Mangou army so much before, and the morale of the dogs has been slackened, and the defenders of Jiujiang still caused us great casualties, and also killed the chief soldier Chen Raoyuan Chen Brothers, and finally relied on luck to quickly take Jiujiang City." When we arrived in Nanchang, could we still have such good luck? ”

"Brother Lu, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who fights by luck." Gao Dejie also ignored Han Daren's angry eyes, but emphasized: "I can assure you that if I go to fight Nanchang, I will not let you down." ”

"Brother Gao's skills, of course I understand it very well." Lu Fatzi groaned and said: "It's just that Nanchang's full dog guard general, Jiangxi Governor Zhao Guoqi, is not a fuel-efficient lamp, even Zheng Chenggong suffered a big defeat in his hands back then." Now that he has sufficient troops in his hands, and there is a strong city of Nanchang to defend, Brother Gao, you send troops to attack, even if you succeed, I am afraid that it will take a long time and cause heavy casualties. ”

"Siege warfare has been like this since ancient times." Gao Dejie said helplessly: "Unless it's shit luck like General Han, otherwise, is there a reason why the siege war doesn't take a long time and has heavy casualties?" ”

"General Gao, what do you mean by that?" Han Daren couldn't bear it anymore, jumped out and asked with a blue face: "It's good luck to take Jiancheng quickly with small casualties, so do you have to take a long time and suffer heavy casualties for our army to capture Jiancheng, so you are happy in your heart?" ”

"Don't argue, don't argue, General Han, don't misunderstand, Brother Gao is just an example, and he definitely doesn't mean to be sarcastic." Fat Lu was busy playing a round, and quickly changed the topic: "Brother Gao, General Han, and generals, brother, I have a habit of fighting, that is, when making plans before going to war, you must think clearly about what situation is most beneficial to you and what situation is most unfavorable to the enemy, and you like to plan before acting. You all discuss what kind of circumstances it would be most advantageous for our army to launch the Nanchang Campaign or the Anqing Campaign. ”

"Just an example?" Secretly hating Lu Fatzi for favoring Gao Dejie, without waiting for the generals of the Wu army to speak, Han Daren was the first to sneer: "What kind of situation does the general ask, is it most advantageous for our army to launch the Nanchang Battle or the Anqing Campaign?" Needless to say, of course, it is best when the dog-filled defenders in Nanchang City and Anqing City are dead, and the dogs defending the city are dead, let's fight Nanchang and Anqing, isn't it easy? ”

After that, Han Daren laughed, proud and arrogant. In this way, don't talk about Gao Dejie and other generals of the Wu army who are at odds with Han Daren, even Li Tianzhi, who has a very good temper, can't stand it anymore, and stands up and says angrily: "Han Daren, the general asked, if you don't want to answer, you can not answer, less damn yin and yang, when it comes to fighting, who is afraid of you here?!" ”

"Didn't the general ask me under what circumstances it would be most advantageous to fight Anqing and Nanchang?" Not to be outdone, Han Daren immediately retorted: "Am I wrong? The dogs defending the city are dead, isn't it easy for us to fight? ”

"Fuck you bastard!" Hu Tongchun jumped up, rolled up his sleeves and was about to come up and beat people. I never thought that Fat Lu suddenly spoke, "Slow down, General Hu, no infighting!" ”

"Lord Lu, it's not that I want to fight, it's that this dog bastard is too fucking crazy!" Hutong Spring yelled.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Fat Lu waved his hand, asked Xiao Erlang to go up and hold Hu Tongchun, and turned his gaze to Han Daren with a thoughtful expression.

"General, that's what you asked me." Han Daren was a little timid by Lu Fatzi's staring, and hurriedly added: "Although the last general is a little joking, he didn't answer wrong?" ”

"You really didn't answer wrong." Fat Lu said in a surprising voice, and said slowly: "Because of your words, I suddenly brought a new idea - how to tackle tough problems instead of having a headache, why can't we think about teaching a full dog a lesson on the field battlefield that our army is good at?" As long as we can annihilate a part of Mangou's troops in the field, won't we have a lot less pressure when attacking the city? ”

"Annihilate some of the Mangou in the field?" Li Tianzhi was stunned and wondered: "Is this possible?" Since the decisive battle of Anshun, Mangou is basically unwilling to compete with our army in the field, this Jiujiang War, we also hit Mangou twice in the field, Mangou is not stupid, will be fooled again and again? ”

"It's possible." Gao Dejie opened his mouth and said solemnly: "According to our army's detailed investigation, in the past two years, in order to ensure the safety of the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, the Mangou Emperor has successively transferred a large number of garrisons from more than ten state capitals such as Yanzhou, Dezhou, Cangzhou and Shunyi to the south and deployed them to Anqing to garrison. The Mangou cavalry has always looked down on our Han army, and felt that they were unparalleled in the world in archery and horseback, so they must not be able to rule out the possibility of them going out of the city to fight in the field again. ”

"So, it's a possibility." Li Tianzhi pinched his chin and groaned: "But if you want to fight a decisive battle with Anqing Mangou in the wild, you must first take Nanchang and relieve Jiujiang's worries, so that our main force can dare to cross the river with confidence and go to Anqing to fight with Mangou." ”

"The last general asks for an order to lead an army to take Nanchang City! Relieve the worries of our army crossing the river! Han Daren also felt that Gao Dejie was reasonable, and at the same time, in order to disgust Gao Dejie, he deliberately rushed to ask for an order.

"It was Lao Tzu who asked for this order first!" Gao Dejie was furious, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Lu Fatzi and said: "Brother Lu, I made this request first, if you send someone to attack Nanchang, you must have to go with me!" ”

"What's the hurry?" Fat Lu smiled bitterly and complained: "I just said that I want to plan and then move, why can't I wait immediately?" ”

"But General, if we don't take Nanchang City quickly, how can we attack Anqing?" Han Daren asked.

"Don't worry." Fat Lu still shook his head, and muttered again: "Since we plan to lure Mangou out of the city for a decisive battle, why only think about luring Anqing's Mangou out of the city for a decisive battle?" Why can't we think of any way to let the full dog in Nanchang also go out of the city for a decisive battle? Or, to induce the situation to move in our favor? Say....... ”

When he came here, Fat Lu suddenly raised his head and blurted out: "For example, to lure the full dogs of Anqing and Nanchang to launch an attack on Jiujiang City?" ”

"Let the Mangou of Anqing and Nanchang counterattack Jiujiang?" All the generals of the Wu army were in the same place, and then Han Daren blurted out: "Then how to lure the enemy?" ”

"That's the question I asked you." Fat Lu came to his senses and asked: "Old way, if you are the Mangou boss of Anqing and Nanchang, under what circumstances will you send out the troops to attack Jiujiang?" ”

"Of course, in the case of a counterattack on Jiujiang." Gao Dejie was the first to reply: "If I were the commander of the dogs, as long as I saw the counterattack on Jiujiang, of course I would send troops." ”

"Then Brother Gao, and the generals, if you are the commander of the dog, what kind of situation will our army have, will you feel that the counterattack on Jiujiang will be safe, and you will decide to send troops to counterattack?" Fat Lu asked.

"This, maybe too much." Gao Dejie replied: "For example, Mangou knows that our Jiujiang troops are empty, and there are no reinforcements arriving in the intermittent time, then Mangou will definitely counterattack." In other words, our army is short of food and grass, and as long as the dogs besiege the city and run out of food, they can force us to abandon the city. In other words, Man Gou knows that our army is unstable and facing collapse, and it may also make a comprehensive counterattack to Jiujiang. ”

"Go on." Fat Lu commanded while pondering: "Brother Gao and the generals, please continue, no matter what kind of possibility, please talk about it." ”

"Our army is pouring out to fight Nanchang, and Anqing Mangou has seen the emptiness of our army's Jiujiang defenders, and may also attack Jiujiang." Li Tianzhi said.

"The rear of our army is unstable and we are forced to return to the division to rescue the rear, and the dog will definitely fight back in an all-round way." The whole section said.

"There is a traitor in our army, and he promised to lead the army to surrender to Mangou, as long as Mangou believes it, he will definitely send troops." Gao Hongchen said.

"Our army ......."

General Wu Junzhong put forward a variety of possibilities one after another, but the more Lu Fatzi listened, the more he shook his head, feeling that it would either take too long or be unrealistic at all. But at this moment, I don't know who muttered in a low voice, "The commander of our army is dead, the dragons are leaderless, and the dogs must fight back in an all-round way." ”

"Han Daren, you have a fucking word again!" Hu Tongchun couldn't help jumping up and grabbed Han Daren's collar.

"What are you anxious about? This is what the general himself asked us to say, am I wrong? Han Daren retorted with rhetoric: "Could it be that after the unfortunate death of the commander of our army, Mangou will miss such a good opportunity?" ”

"Say your mother!" Hu Tongchun raised his fist the size of the vinegar jar and punched Han Daren's nose hard, Han Daren dodged, raised his foot and kicked Hu Tongchun back, and immediately scuffled with Hu Dongchun.

"Stop it!" Fat Lu yelled, "Pull them away, and then fight among themselves, and each person will be rewarded with thirty military sticks!" ”

"Lord Lu, what kind of fart do you listen to this dog mongrel!" Hu Tongchun was furious and said: "He's cursing you for dying, you don't care?" ”

"He dreamed of it." Fat Lu snorted coldly: "Dozens of millions of dogs have such dreams every day, but unfortunately none of them have come true...... Hey? ”

Speaking of this, the anger on Fat Lu's fat face suddenly disappeared, and he began to show a surprised expression, and said happily: "Yes, why didn't I think of this trick?" If I am killed, then the full dog will not only fight back in full? That guy, isn't all the trouble gone? ”

"Brother Lu, just after the New Year, can you speak auspiciously?" Gao Dejie asked with a wry smile.

"I'm a fearless materialist, and I don't care about that." Fat Lu waved his hand generously, and then withdrew his fat hand, with a vivid painful expression on his face, and screamed miserably on his chest: "Ouch, it hurts me, it hurts me!" It seems that during the siege of the city yesterday, I was hit by a full dog and my injuries were aggravated! ”

"Young master, you were hit by a cannon full of dogs yesterday? Is the injury serious? Xiao Erlang jumped up in fright and hurriedly pounced to check.

"You were hit by a cannon full of dogs?" The generals of the Wu army were also taken aback. Gao Dejie exclaimed again and asked: "Brother Lu, I have been with you during the siege of the city yesterday, when were you hit by the dog artillery?" How did I not know? ”

"Just as you turned around, a cannonball full of dogs landed right at my feet and exploded." Fat Lu groaned in pain, and said with a snort: "There was a piece of shrapnel that shot into my stomach and shed a lot of blood, and I was afraid of shaking the heart of the army, so I didn't dare to speak out, and changed into clean clothes and went into the city." But now it's not going to work, I can't hold it anymore, Lang Zhong, hurry up and invite Lang Zhong to me. ”

"Come on, go and invite Doctor Zhu!" Xiao Erlang screamed.

"You're a pig's head!" Fat Lu raised his hand and gave Xiao Erlang a burst of shock, and said angrily: "At this time, you should call me to prepare those prisoners of war, right?" ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Erlang was confused. The generals of the Wu army next to him looked at each other, and suddenly burst into laughter, and they all stretched out their thumbs to Lu Fatzi to express their praise - what a performance!

"Brother Lu, will the dog be fooled?" Gao Dejie asked with concern.

"At least one full dog, you'll definitely be fooled!" Fat Lu replied with a smile: "And not only is he willingly fooled, but he will definitely pull Anqing and Nanchang's full dogs to be deceived together!" ”

At noon, the ranks of the fat army, which was still immersed in the joy of the siege victory, suddenly spread the news of an explosion surname -- in the siege battle yesterday, Lu Yifeng, the commander of the Eastern Route Army of the Wu Army, and Lu Sanhao, the commander of the Eastern Route Army of the Wu Army, were unfortunately hit by the artillery of the Jiujiang Mangou defenders and were seriously wounded. But today, the injuries began to worsen, and he is now dying, dying! All the people in the city, including Zhu Fangdan, the pervert doctor who is Lu Fatzi's staff, are also helpless against Lu Fatzi's injury!
