After the fall of Fuzhou and the fall of the main tea-producing area of the Wuyishan generation into the hands of Haoge, the Zheng family's main profitable industry also shrank, and this shrinkage was formed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after the Manchu Qing Dynasty went south at the beginning of this year, the Zheng family's business gradually became poor.

Because of the collapse of the Nanjing Imperial Court, after the original territory fell into the hands of the Manchus, many merchants who were in business either fled or died under the iron hooves of the Manchus.

Even if a merchant occasionally shipped it, it was eventually abandoned because the price was too high to make money because of the war.

The Zheng family's main income depends on monopolizing Japan's foreign trade, so they do exclusive trading, and if there is nothing to do, then they can't make this money.

The reason why Zheng Zhilong agreed to transfer is mainly because of this, after all, if he doesn't transfer, he will either take refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty and be his southeast king to control Fujian, but judging from the situation at the time, the Manchu Qing should not do this, and they will not agree, after all, the existence of a big warlord like the Zheng family is a threat to the imperial court.

And it is even more impossible to let it be stationed in Fujian, so at most it is to give it a title, or something else.

Zheng Zhilong, who saw through this, decisively chose to join the Australians and went to Annan for development, and for this reason, he also sent Tang Wang's family to Hong Kong, so as not to affect his own development with this guy.

You must know that Zheng Cai has developed very well in Annan, and judging from all kinds of signs. Zheng Cai has become the most powerful military force in Annan, and the Australians have also invested heavily in supporting his development, mobilizing instructors from the local area to train.

Being able to do this with all his heart shows that Zheng Cai has a very high status in the hearts of Australians. But it doesn't matter, Zheng Zhilong knows his strength, he also has a son who has a good relationship with Australians, and Australia will not easily do anything to himself.

Zheng Zhilong knew that the Australians would not do anything to him, but he might not be so dedicated to supporting him, so he sent some of them to Annam, and the other part of them slowly retreated in Fujian. While entangled with Hauge, he collected supplies and transferred them to Annam.

The loss of Fuzhou is nothing to him, and at present, Quanzhou and Kinmen and other places are his important territories, and half of his men, horses, ships and materials are concentrated here. Although there is already a territory in Annam, many things have not yet been shipped.

The first is the lack of time, and the second is that it has not yet gained a firm foothold there, in order to ensure that these places are not occupied by Hauge. The Zheng family's army deliberately shrank the front. In the territory close to the inland, almost always deal with the posture of fighting and retreating.

This is also the reason why Haoge was able to take most of Fujian in such a short period of time, the most important of which is that the Zheng family gave up by themselves, if the Zheng family really wants to defend it, I am afraid that Haoge will not be able to fight it in half a year.

Zheng Zhilong has been strong all his life, and it is the first time that he has been chased and beaten like this when he is old, so he has long been ready to give Hao Ge an unforgettable lesson, so that he knows that Zheng Jiajun is not so easy to mess with. After all, the Zheng family army has 100,000 people.

At this time, more than 50,000 people were concentrated in Quanzhou, and these people were all retreated from various places. Basically did not suffer any losses, in order to give Hauge a heavy blow in the final battle.

Haoge's army has been pursuing Quanzhou, he has completely ignored the Zheng family, and he ignored Dorgon's many warnings, thinking that Lao Duo is old and useless at all, and this time is not to give the enemy a chance to counterattack.

For this reason, Hauge also wrote to express the strength of his control over Fujian, and described that the Zheng Jiajun had no combat effectiveness at all.

His self-beating had blinded his heart, but at this time he didn't know that he had fallen into a crisis.

The scheming Dolgon had actually seen Zheng Zhilong's plan, and he was determined to take advantage of Hauge's victory to get carried away, so he kept pretending to retreat, if he let the other party's plan succeed, he was afraid that Hauge would suffer heavy losses.

It's just that at present, this guy doesn't listen to orders at all, and he doesn't listen to his persuasion at all, which makes him very angry, on the one hand, he is angry, and on the other hand, he also hopes that Hauge can be under some pressure through this incident, after all, it is good to let him be punished somewhat.

Zheng Zhilong has made sufficient preparations for this war in advance, all the weapons and ammunition are sufficient, and even dug a trench outside Quanzhou City to deal with it, from which it can be seen that Quanzhou is different from other places, and he is using Quanzhou to fight a battle with Haoge.

The situation in Quanzhou City, Haoge is not not completely understood, but understands very clearly, everything Zheng Zhilong has done He knows, after all, he has failed, but if he wants to leave Fujian completely or surrender, how can he not fight back here at this time.

But with those fortifications alone, Hauge thought that he couldn't stop his march at all, after all, his army had already captured most of Fujian, had contact with the Zheng army, and knew something about them, so he naturally knew some reasons.

Now this is just a death struggle, if it can be done, it will not be defeated so quickly, it is said that the Tang Dynasty has already left Fujian, not to mention that the Zheng family army will still defend here.

Under the city of Quanzhou, Haoge asked people to send a letter of surrender, the conditions were still the same as before, as long as Zheng Zhilong surrendered, everything was easy to say, but Lao Zheng directly rejected him, saying that it was impossible.

If he had thought about it before, but this time it was different, the Australians officially announced that they had declared war on the Manchus and were going to fight with the upcoming Dolgon two white flags, as soon as such a report came out, if Zheng Zhilong surrendered, it is estimated that there would be no good fruit to eat in the future.

Since the Australians have helped Liangguang, they will definitely help them regain their lost territory in the future, surrender at this time, and the first thing the Australians will attack in the future is themselves, after all, Australia's strength is there, not they can be compared with any one of them.

Zheng Zhilong refused, this is also a good thing for Haoge, continue to fight, although it will be ruined, but for him it is equivalent to returning to the court and having some strength, this is capital, as long as he can capture Zheng Zhilong alive, it will definitely be more credit than Azig attacking Liangguang.

After all, Liangguang now has the help of the Australians, and they may not be able to fight down, which Haoge is not optimistic about Azig at all, so when Zheng Zhilong announced that he would not surrender, he immediately launched an attack. (To be continued.) )
