Twenty years in the morning, the Quanzhou Bay between Daluo Island and Dashanyu Island is dotted with merchant ships or fishing boats, but with the implementation of several boundary orders, this open water has long been as lonely as a dead land, often only three or two seagulls are still dancing happily under the sound of the waves. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)
However, the situation seems to be a little different today, when the sky is slightly bright, a group of murderous warships suddenly broke into this sea area, so that the Qing army flood soldiers who occupied the ruins of Dongyue Temple on Kusaka Island as a beacon tower were a little dumbfounded when they saw it from afar, and it took a long time before they panicked and ignited the wolf smoke that had been prepared for a long time.
Seeing the beacon fire soaring into the sky, Gu Yunxue on the handsome ship couldn't help frowning, and then asked Ma Ying, who was much younger than him, for instructions: "Lord Admiral Quan, are you going to send someone to the island to end this enemy outpost?" ”
"No need," Ma Ying replied quietly, if she wanted to clean it up, she had already sent someone to clean it up when she arrived off the coast of Quanzhou last night, so how could she leave it for them to sound the alarm now. "This official just wants them to ventilate and report the news, these two rivers and one bay are so vast, this official also wants to see how the Qing prisoners guarding Quanzhou will react." Speaking of which, Ma Ying ordered. "Raise the flag, the Jiazi team acts as originally planned"
Originally, when Lin Sheng set up the cross-sea battle plan, he only interrupted the small-scale attack on Penghu and Lugang, and the final destination was Funing Bay in the north, but when the report came to Zheng Kezang's hands, he added three regiments of the land division with a stroke of his pen, so that the original operation of the sailor division alone became a joint operation, and Lin Sheng, who had more cards, was also bold, so he abolished the plan to go north and re-decided to implement the strategy of attacking Quanzhou Bay.
After the flag was issued, the five ships of Qianliu Fu broke away from the brigade, ignoring the Qing army's earthen fort sentry towers in the gun city and Yangdai, and traced the Jinjiang River, firing guns all the way, and the sound was terrifying. The Qing army had a total garrison of 15,000 troops in Quanzhou, half of which were troops from Fujian and Jiangxi, and although the total number of troops was quite large, it had to defend the coastal Jinjiang, Tong'an, Hui'an counties and Xiamen Hall, so the strength in a single direction was limited. Hearing that the Zheng army was coming violently, Lahuaha of Zhangquan Dao, who was under the white flag of Manchuria, was immediately frightened and tried his best to prevent Pusheng, the general of the left road of Jiangxi, from sending troops to meet the enemy. Pusheng was a guest army, and there was no intention to fight, so he heard Lahuaha's obstruction and naturally fell into the favor, so the five thousand Qing troops chose to defend the city under the intimidation of hundreds of Zheng troops, and only the messengers for help and several outposts of more than a dozen people were sent out of the city.
The army in Fucheng did not move, and the more than 2,000 defenders in Jinjiang County naturally did not dare to attack lightly, so the Zheng army was able to land calmly. After that, Sun Youlao, who commanded the land division in a unified manner, decided to split the 2nd Regiment of the Left Huwei and the 3rd Regiment of the Right Yongwei Regiment into sentry units, and after strengthening the artillery and deploying some additional sailors, they separately attacked the fortresses in the Chitang, Hankou, Huakou, Shangguo, Baogai, Hongtang, Chidian and other enclosed areas.
Some of the landlords loyal to the Qing court tried to resist stubbornly, but they quickly collapsed under the blows of Zheng's artillery and deer. There were also some local bigwigs who thought that Zheng Jun was just plundering and tried to reward the people for peace, but they were also driven to the beach by force; There were also those who couldn't figure out the direction and tried to play the banner of the Ming army, but they were finally disarmed by the Zheng army and escorted to the sea.
At this time, the Qing army of Hui'an heard the news and hurriedly gathered the garrison troops along the line to come to reinforcements, but in the first line of the Luoyang Bridge for the landing of the first regiment of Zuo Yongwei, the Qing army saw that the Zheng army was few, so it launched a strong attack, and the result was in front of the Zheng army artillery to break the head and bleed and repeat the mistakes of the battle of Hanxigang, fortunately this is the Qing army's ruling area, although the Qing army lost its armor all the way, but because the Zheng army was unintentional to pursue, so it finally escaped, but after this change, the Qing army that fled back to Hui'an no longer dared to attack, until the reinforcements in the direction of Xinghua arrived, They followed the south tremblingly.
The first regiment of the victorious Zuo Yongwei immediately appeared outside the city of Quanzhou, and showed off the head of hundreds of Qing troops to build a Jingguan, seeing this scene, the unfathomable defenders of Quanzhou did not dare to attack, so after a show of power, Zuo Yongwei turned to the sea, surrounded the East China Sea Fort and the gun city full of two places, but before the fight, but there were fathers and elders in the fort came out to surrender, the original garrison of the Qing army in the two places has fled back to Quanzhou City after the alarm was issued.
"Zhang Qizhong (recommended by book friend zjf5532) What are you kid doing?"
The former Qing army sailor who rubbed oil on the woman's body was trembling all over, and when he looked back, he saw that a squad leader of the Lu Division with the rank of lieutenant of the Eighth Rank of Xiuwu on his sleeve was staring at him, he couldn't help laughing, and said in a Nanzhili official dialect: "Ma Tou, no, it's nothing, isn't it helping this little sister-in-law to get something?" ”
"Take something? I see that you kid thinks that you are living too comfortably, and you want to eat military sticks. "Although Zhang Qizhong couldn't understand the thick Hokkien dialect, this kid knew that it was definitely not a good word, so he naturally didn't dare to answer, so he listened to the squad leader's orders." You and Tian Group Tou will go to Jinjiang to explore, straight lady thief, let's this, such a big movement, don't be taken out by the black tiger who came back to his senses."
Zhang Qizhong cried with a sad face: "Ma Tou, can you change someone, I am a sailor, I can still flutter in the sea, and I have landed."
"Less nonsense!" The head of the group surnamed Tian kicked Zhang Qizhong's ass. "Cowardice, if it weren't for the lack of manpower, what did Lao Tzu want you to do, don't say it, if you can't keep up, you will be dealt with as a deserter."
Looking at the unkind eyes of Tian Tou and his soldiers, Zhang Qizhong swallowed his saliva, grabbed the bird gun that was temporarily assigned to him, and hurriedly followed, but as he walked, he cursed in Wu Su's soft language: "What is horizontal, isn't it that Lao Tzu is a soldier, there is a kind of you let Lao Tzu run back, and you have to do a few more battles." ”
As soon as Zhang Qizhong raised his head, he saw a Zheng Jun staring at him, and his face suddenly turned grim with fright, joke, he wanted to escape from under the noses of five sword and shield men with a bird's gun, he really didn't use this courage to fight.
A few people sometimes followed the avenue, sometimes along the field road, sometimes through a few streams and ditches, gradually, the hustle and bustle left them, Zhang Qizhong wanted to open his mouth several times to let Tian Group head them stop, and several times because of fear and dispelled the idea, but in the end he couldn't help it: "Tian Xiuwu, where are we going to go?" ”
Tian Gutou was also tired of walking, and stood on his heels and motioned to several soldiers to stop: "Didn't you say anything to the squad leader just now?" ”
"I heard it, but I can't go to Jinjiang City in one go." As soon as Zhang Qizhong finished speaking, he saw several soldiers glaring at him, so he was busy. "This is not an offense to me, my brothers are all veterans, so I naturally know that it is one thing to find out the enemy's situation, and it is another thing to block the enemy."
Saying this, several Zheng Jun seemed to be a little moved, so Tian Tou thought for a while and asked, "What kind of charter are you?" ”
"This inland is so open, even if the Qing army comes out of Jinjiang City, is it possible that we can still hold the four gates, even if we disperse to the four gates, can we definitely rush to report back to the brigade in front of the Qing army?" Zhang Qizhong shook his head. "There is a sun and a moon, and it is good to estimate the general path, but in case there is a horse team"
"What are you doing with all this nagging?" Tian Tou glared. "Say something useful."
"Yes, something useful." Zhang Qizhong pointed to the small village looming in the distance. "There aren't many of our boats, and there are only one or two thousand people who can be transported back, but we might as well make the momentum bigger, those big villages are not just the six of us, but we can deal with this kind of nomura with three or two households."
"Go to Jungle," one of the sword and shield men on the side raised an eyebrow. "What's the point of this, to harm the common people?"
"No, I mean to drive them all to the county seat, and the people can't be frightened, as long as they spread ten or ten." Zhang Qizhong chuckled. "I'm also from over there, and the temper of those officials is a little measured, I believe that Yi saw so many people fleeing for refuge, and I don't know how to exaggerate our strength, maybe I'm too scared to move casually."
"Maybe it's true." Tian Tou thought for a moment and nodded in agreement with Zhang Qizhong's suggestion, but he still had a question in his heart. "Can just a few of us make such a big noise?"
"There is a way that bandits are like combs, soldiers are like grates, and officials are like shavings." Zhang Qizhong bared his teeth. "Burn and kill in one word." Zhang Qizhong then paused. "You don't need to grab the first wild village, burn it first, light the fire and let the Qing army in Jinjiang City take a look at it first, then one fire, two fires, and wait until the third village, let's grab and burn."
In fact, as long as the soldiers have seen blood, none of them are soft-hearted, and they sneered at Zhang Qizhong before because this kid was a surrendered army, and he belonged to a second-class citizen in the Zheng army, but he didn't really really how to seriously enforce military discipline.
Seeing that the heat was almost over, Zhang Qizhong picked it up again. "Dongning is said to have more men and fewer women, so let's not rob anything else, rob a woman, according to the Trinity system, at most we will spend a few more dollars"
Tian Tou was still a little hesitant, but a few veterans who had not married themselves or their brothers were already red-eyed, and under their interference, Tian Tou just asked more: "Then how to explain to the official after you go back?" ”
"It's simple, let's just say that they helped the Qing army beat us, so they burned down the house and robbed the woman as punishment."
In fact, many things lie in whether to do or not to explain in the future, so Tian Tou, who made up his mind, finally made a decision: "Then do it, but don't go too far, it's all bitter haha"
The fire finally burned, and the black smoke that rushed to the sky attracted the attention of Zheng Jun, and at the same time, it also surprised the Qing army guarding Jinjiang: "What, the sea has attacked Houyang, which is only ten miles away from the city, no, pass the order down, guard the four gates, don't let the spies enter the city"
