"Swim over and reinforce them!" Huang Fengwu gritted his teeth and gave an order categorically. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Following her order, the soldiers of the Zhoushan Army jumped into the river without saying a word. They are all people who live on islands, and they are all very good in water.

The musketeers of the Daishan Army ignored the shots of the Qing archers, desperately reloaded gunpowder and opened fire.

Huang Fengwu was a little worried, and the performance of the Qing soldiers on the other side was much worse than she thought.

Attacked by the flood, the Qing soldiers who barely escaped the catastrophe were originally demoralized, and they could barely shoot at the Ming army by relying on the river to block them, but when they saw another large group of Ming troops killing along the river, these Qing soldiers who survived the catastrophe immediately became frightened, and they fled backwards one after another.

When the soldiers of the Zhoushan Army swam across the river to join the recruits who had killed along the riverbank, the Qing soldiers had already fled far away.

Ren Likun chased down with more than 1,000 recruits and hundreds of Zhoushan army spearmen, and chased them for four or five miles without catching up, but captured a large number of heavy materials.

The rear army of the Qing army escorted the grain and grass supplies slowly, and happened to meet the defeated and retreating rout, so they fled with them, but left a large amount of materials on the road.

On the bank of the river, hundreds of soldiers pursued along the banks of the river, chasing and killing the Qing soldiers who fell into the water. happened to catch up with Wang Aoyong, who was holding the neck of the war horse and undulating in the river, and several soldiers with good water characteristics jumped into the river, pressed Wang Aoyong into the river and filled him with a thief, and then dragged him ashore.

On the side of the broken bridge, Ren Siqi and Huang Fengwu converged together, and sent decent people to repair the broken bridge. Li Shiyuan was pulling his son Li Ding to whisper in the distance, and more than 1,000 of his soldiers were stationed on the side of the road two miles away.

"What do you do with him? Bring it back to Daishan? Huang Fengwu stabbed Ren Siqi's arm, and quietly pointed at Li Shiyuan and asked.

"Of course not, capricious people will not be of the same heart as my Daishan army." Ren Siqi shook his head and said, "Just let him stay in Shandong, whether he will be loyal or surrender to the Manchus again in the future depends on his choice." ”

"And what about his son? That's a good kid. "Huang Fengwu is talking about Li Ding.

"Well, if Li Ding stays with his father, then let him go. If he is still willing to stay in the Daishan army, then he is different from his father, he is a loyal person for the country, and he can be entrusted with important tasks in the future. ”

......

"Ding'er, you've gained weight and grown taller in the past two months." Li Shiyuan gestured at Li Ding's head and said favorably.

"Daddy, you've lost a lot of weight." Li Ding was very happy that his father abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and he was very distressed when he saw his father getting thinner and thinner.

"Child, come back, follow Daddy in the future, and let's make a vigorous career together." Li Shiyuan touched Li Ding's head.

But Li Ding's face showed embarrassment.

"Why, you don't want to go back to Daddy?" Li Shiyuan's face sank.

"It's not that I don't want to," Li Ding hurriedly said: "It's rather, but I'm reluctant to leave the Daishan Army." ”

"What's so good about you staying in the Daishan Army? Now it's just a small banner, and when I come back, I will immediately appoint you as the commander-in-chief, and you will be the major general of my army from now on!" Li Shiyuan said proudly, the strength in his hand made him very full of heart, and Li Shiyuan at this time was no longer the poor Baba who asked for help from the Daishan Army a few months ago.

......

"We have a lot of problems with sending troops this time," Huang Fengwu said with a frown, "We should ambush the army on both sides, instead of ambushing all the troops on the east bank of the river." If it weren't for Ren Likun leading the reinforcements of the new army, we would almost not be able to control the situation. ”

"You're right, in addition to this, there are a lot of other problems." Ren Siqi agreed.

"First of all, most of our soldiers don't have armor, and they used to fight mainly with pirates, and they didn't need armor at sea and sea battles. But in the future, we will mainly fight against the Qing soldiers, not only the Green Banner soldiers composed of the surrendered Ming army, but also the Manchu soldiers. With our equipment, I'm afraid we are not an opponent with a full army at all.

Secondly, our troops are too single, our Daishan army is divided into musketeers and pikemen, and your Zhoushan army only has one class of pikemen. We should at least train another batch of short sword shield soldiers, take today, if we have shield soldiers, we will not be shot and injured so much by the Qing soldiers. ”

In a short confrontation with the Qing soldiers, the Ming army was killed and wounded by nearly 100 people, and if the Ming army was equipped with armor and a large number of shields, the casualties could be reduced by more than half.

All in all, the current Daishan Army and Zhoushan Army have extremely poor defensive capabilities, and they can win when they encounter a weak enemy, and if they encounter a strong enemy, they will probably suffer a big loss!

During the conversation, the Ming troops sent out to pursue returned one after another, and captured more than 200 Qing soldiers in the river, the most important of which was Wang Aoyong, the governor of Qing Shandong.

On both sides of the glue, the Qing soldiers dropped countless weapons and flags, and the Ming army was happily cleaning up the battlefield.

Dozens of Ming soldiers cut down a few large trees from near the riverbank, cut off the branches and heads, carried them to the bridge piers, and then spread thinner logs horizontally, tied them tightly together with ropes, and repaired the collapsed wooden bridge. As a result, the Ming army on the west bank of the river was able to transport the captured weapons and materials to the east of the bridge.

When they were busy, Ren Likun and others, who were chasing the Qing army, returned, bringing back dozens of mule carts full of loads, and Wang Aoyong's 5,000-strong army of heavy grain and grass were all in it.

After this battle, Wang Aoyong's 5,000-strong army was defeated, of which more than 1,000 were swept away by the river, hundreds were killed and captured, and more than 1,000 people fled. Qing general Li Shiyuan led more than 1,000 men to return to the Ming army sequence.

......

"I wonder what General Li plans to do in the future?" By the glue river, Ren Siqi asked Li Shiyuan with a smile.

"The last general, but listen to the general's orders!" Li Shiyuan clenched his fists and bowed his head, showing that only Ren Siqi was looking forward.

"Don't dare to be, you are a general, and I am a little guerrilla." Ren Siqi laughed.

Li Shiyuan squeezed his face and smiled, he couldn't figure out the meaning of Ren Siqi's words, "General Ren has such a strong palm, his future is unlimited, and the marquis is just around the corner!" ”

"I'll lend you an auspicious word, but there is a suggestion, I don't know if General Li can listen to it."

"General, please speak, the last general will listen to you."

"Now that the Qing army has been newly defeated, and the people in Gaomi City still don't know that you have surrendered, why don't General Li march now, capture Gaomi, raise food and wages, and go straight to Qingzhou.

Now that Wang Aoyong's army has been defeated, there is no strong Qing army in the whole of Shandong, it is the time for the general to be brave, if he is lucky, it is possible to take Jinan. ”

Ren Siqi's words were extremely bewitching, and Li Shiyuan's eyes lit up when he listened. (To be continued.) )
