The march went smoothly beyond Zheng Jinhong's imagination.

The army galloped all the way on the official road, although the momentum was terrifying, although it caused a lot of movement, although it was said that the people and businessmen on the official road were surprised, but the government did not react, as if this matter did not appear at all, and the people on the official road saw the red military uniform of the Zheng family, except for dodging, there was no other performance.

After the army entered Quanzhou, an even more peculiar scene appeared, and the merchants and people on the official road did not show any performance after seeing the hurried army.

Zheng Xunrui is not stupid, he quickly thought of Zheng Zhilong, to say that compared with other places in the south, the number of Fujian troops is quite a lot, in addition to the army of the guard, there are nearly 200,000 sailor troops, these people cannot be completely closed in the camp, there is always a chance to come out and show up, maybe the people regard the Zheng family army as the army of the Fujian guard, maybe it is regarded as the army to which Zheng Zhilong belongs, whatever, as long as the army can march smoothly.

Of course, from this, Zheng Jinhong also realized another layer of meaning, that is, although Zheng Zhilong is the governor of the same country and the chief soldier of Fujian, he has not been completely integrated into the Fujian officialdom, at least Zheng Zhilong has a certain distance from the Fujian officialdom, which may lead to the swaggering march of the army on the official road, and Zheng Zhilong and the officials at all levels have not reacted.

Zheng Zhilong's conceit is vividly expressed in this aspect.

Zheng Jinhong really doesn't understand, Zheng Zhilong is also brave in battle, experienced in a hundred battles, and can be regarded as an outstanding general of the Ming Dynasty, but there is such a low-level mistake, and the officials at all levels in Fujian do not care very much about such a huge army.

In just over two days, the army entered Jinjiang, which was under the jurisdiction of Quanzhou, and headed towards the destination of Anhai Town.

Despite the rapid pace of the march. However, Zheng Jinhong still paid attention to the situation along the way, which became his habit, and from these observations, he could get a little insight into the local people's feelings.

The people in Fujian are generally comfortable, and the climate in Fujian is different from the climate in the north. It is also different from Nanjing, the climate is much warmer, and most of the people you see along the way are already wearing short shirts, but the degree of wealth is not comparable with Nanjing, and you can even see people with colorful faces along the road.

In the villages on both sides of the official road, many houses are stilted buildings, which also stems from the special climate of Fujian, which has a large number of insects due to the warm climate. Including many poisonous snakes, these insects are very active at night, and people can only keep their houses away from the ground in order to sleep peacefully at night.

After the army entered Jinjiang, the feeling was different, many villages and towns on both sides of the official road in Jinjiang built houses much better than other places, and some places could even see more luxurious mansions.

This also made Zheng Jinhong start to be vigilant. Originally, I thought that Anhai Town in Jinjiang was Zheng Zhilong's sphere of influence, but now it seems. Zheng Zhilong also takes care of other places in Jinjiang, at least many people here have benefited from following Zheng Zhilong, which shows that Zheng Zhilong also has a certain sphere of influence in the entire Jinjiang.

Zheng Jinhong's suspicion was confirmed soon after.

When there were still fifty miles away from Anhai Town, the scout reported the details.

The mansion built by Zheng Zhilong in Anhai Town covers an area of more than 100 acres and is backed by the sea. Not far from the mansion is the wharf, and the sergeants recruited by Zheng Zhilong are stationed five miles away from the mansion, occupying the only passage into the mansion, firmly guarding Zheng Zhilong's mansion, once there is any trouble. The people in the mansion can get the news quickly, and in the case of weak resistance, the people in the mansion can quickly take a boat and drive away.

There are several large ships waiting on the docks at any given moment.

The sergeant in charge of guarding the mansion was very conscientious, and there were people patrolling around the mansion throughout the day, and every half hour there was a patrol team, and the patrol officers patrolled around the mansion for a full circle, and the time was close to half an hour, from midnight to early morning, patrolling once an hour, and once every half hour at other times.

The scout brought detailed drawings that marked the surroundings of Zheng Zhilong's mansion.

Zheng Jinhong looked at the information and maps sent by the scouts, and fell into deep thought.

After countless battles, this time the situation he faced was the most complicated, on the one hand, the army entered Quanzhou, and the news would soon leak out, once Zheng Zhilong or the people in the mansion learned the news, it would definitely trigger a vigilance, then the battle would become particularly difficult, even if the battle was won, Zheng Zhilong and his family could quickly evacuate by big boat, on the other hand, the Zheng family's mansion was extremely heavily guarded, unless it won in a short period of time, it could be guaranteed not to completely alarm the people in the mansionto achieve the goal of capturing Zheng Zhilong or his family.

There are many mountains on both sides of the official road, which are enough for the army to hide, but these mountains are very different from the mountains in Sichuan.

The army was hidden in the mountains, and it was impossible to keep it secret for a long time, if it was not able to act quickly, and by the time the sergeants under Zheng Zhilong's command noticed the news, it would be too late to launch a full-scale attack on Zheng Zhilong's mansion.

Zheng Jinhong, who was thinking quickly, weighed several offensive plans.

Soon, Wang Xiaoer entered the Chinese military tent.

Wang Xiaoer is already the chief soldier of Jiangxi, but this time in this battle, Zheng Jinhong was specially transferred over, and he was still responsible for commanding the scout battalion.

"General Wang, I'm afraid that this battle will rely on the scout battalion to play a decisive role."

"Although the commander arranges, the final general will definitely complete the task."

Zheng Jinhong nodded and began to introduce the situation in detail.

With Zheng Jinhong's words, Wang Xiaoer's expression also became serious.

After introducing the situation, Zheng Jinhong spoke with a serious face.

"General Wang, I plan to launch an attack tonight, within an hour, the Zheng family army must completely capture Zheng Zhilong's mansion, at least control a few big ships on the dock, prevent the people in the mansion from escaping, it is unlikely to launch a full-scale assault, that will soon alarm the people in the mansion, even if we capture the mansion, we will not achieve the goal, but will completely alarm Zheng Zhilong, so that the battle behind will become cruel and long."

Wang Xiaoer nodded, everyone knows what the scout camp does, since this battle is mainly based on the scout camp, then he will not choose a large-scale charge.

"General Wang, you lead two thousand soldiers of the scout battalion to complete the following two combat missions within one hour, one is to cleanly solve the patrol sergeants of Zishi and Choushi, and do not alarm the other sergeants, and the other is to bypass Zheng Zhilong's mansion, arrive at the dock, control the five big ships on the dock, and if you have to do so, you can blow up and sink these big ships."

Wang Xiaoer's face had no expression, these are two simple tasks, but they are by no means simple.

First of all, the patrol sergeants, each team patrols fifty sergeants, it is not too big to solve the problem of these fifty people, but if you want to solve it quietly, it is not a simple matter, and the sergeants patrolling in the sub-time and ugly times must have a handover with each other, the scout battalion solves the sergeants patrolling in the sub-time, and also enters the barracks to solve the ugly patrol sergeants, this is not a joke, if the sergeants in the entire barracks are alarmed, the battle will be a complete failure.

Secondly, the task of occupying the five big ships on the pier is even more difficult, these big ships are in case of emergency, and have special duties, once there is danger, then the transfer of all the people in the mansion must rely on these big ships, it is conceivable that there are sergeants stationed on the big ships, and the weapons and equipment are also the best, sea combat has its particularities, the role of artillery and firearms is huge, and the sergeants of the sailors must be able to skillfully operate these guns and firearms.

Neither mission is simple, but then again, if the combat mission undertaken by the scout battalion is so simple, it would be a joke, what the scout battalion does and what kind of training it undergoes, everyone knows.

"General Wang, you remember that the army will launch a general attack at the moment of the ugly hour, and this time has been determined and will not change, that is to say, regardless of whether the scout battalion has completed the two combat tasks or not, the army attack must be carried out on time."

When he said this, Zheng Jinhong stood up.

"There are many special circumstances in the operation, and there are also some unforeseen special circumstances, once the scout battalion is not able to complete the task completely, then one thing must be done, that is, to block the road of Zheng Zhilong's mansion to the big ship, no matter how much it costs, it is impossible to let a person in the mansion board the big ship, this is the final bottom line, of course, I don't want this situation to appear, the scout battalion of the Zheng family army can complete any combat mission."

Wang Xiaoer also stood up and saluted Zheng Jinhong.

"Marshal, the last general is willing to make a military order to ensure the completion of the combat mission."

Zheng Jinhong patted Wang Xiaoer's shoulder.

"I believe in you, otherwise I wouldn't have transferred you from Jiangxi."

Soon, the eyes of the two focused on the map drawn by the scout at the same time, the overall combat mission was clear, and the next step was the discussion of details, although such a discussion could not cover all the parts, but it was still possible to determine the overall plan, as for the special situation, it would require the commander to exert full wisdom.

An hour later, Wang Xiaoer left the Chinese military tent and hurried in the direction of the scout camp.

Soon, all the soldiers of the scout camp began to prepare, they did not make much noise, and silently sorted out the necessary equipment, which has become a habit of the scout camp.

The actions of the scout battalion have also attracted the attention of many cavalrymen, who know very well that the battle is about to begin, and the scout battalion is the vanguard of this battle, which shows that the battle is very fierce. (To be continued.) )
