Chapter 552: **Fruit Picking

Yan Hong listened to Qi Jiguang's description of the repeated battles, and he was also angry. I was able to catch up with this last closing battle, and I didn't contribute much but made a lot of contributions, which can be described as fortunate and even good, and I sang with a song. He asked Yun Chuqi again: "Brother Yun, you were going out of the city to intercept the Japanese with a hundred auxiliary soldiers and twenty Taizhou Jinyi guards before, but what is this?" ”

Yun Chu said: "Since the Taiyong Rebellion, there are no more than 1,000 soldiers in Taizhou City, and more than 300 people have been sent to help Xinhe, and Qin Cha has taken more than 100 people to Gengjiazhai. The rest of these old and weak people were really killed by more than a thousand Japanese robbers and rushed to the city, even if they defended the city, I am afraid that it will be difficult to stop them for a while. However, since the Japanese were defeated by General Qi and were chased all the way, most of them were frightened birds. Rather than wait for him to get to the city and take a breather before attacking the city, it is better for me to take the enemy by surprise and attack the enemy halfway. It is not possible to really use hundreds of people as the head of thousands of people. The contemptible calculation was to divide the auxiliary soldiers into 20 teams, each with a drum, a flag, and a number of fire-stirring things, and scattered them in the forests on both sides of the road. When our army approached, they beat drums and waved flags together, and at the same time, they led 20 Jinyi guards to go out for several miles, and after they copied the Japanese invaders, they pretended to be the front team of the Zhejiang army and chased and killed, so that the Japanese army panicked. If you can make the Japanese army suspicious and panic and divert him, it will be meritorious; If it can delay for a long time, so that the Qincha Department can rush back to Taizhou to garrison, it will be a meritorious service. If the Japanese army has not been tricked, and the reinforcements have not come, at least 100 people here will disturb and contain it slightly, then Ye Taishou and General Han in the city will have time to organize the army and civilians and withdraw from the city to avoid the sack of the Japanese invaders. The contemptible people have even asked Le Zhile Baizai to prepare, if the Japanese army brigade is really close to the city, and the reinforcements are coming. then use stockpile gunpowder. Blow up the city gates. lest the Japanese invade the city. ”

Qi Jiguang listened to Yun Chuqi's strategy for using soldiers, and praised: "Mr. Yun uses soldiers like this, there are many ancient methods, and I admire and admire him." Yun Chuqi smiled bitterly and said: "General Qi, if these hundreds of people in Taizhou City are Zhejiang soldiers under the general's command, then there are thousands of Japanese soldiers, and there is no need to be afraid, and there is no need to contempt people to make this flashy flower." ”

Now the war on the part of the state is basically over. In addition to sending a horse to investigate the enemy's situation, Yan Hong also revised this chapter, sent people to Beijing to report the victory, and also reported Li Wenzao's affairs. As for Geng Shaoquan's handling, as long as the battle on Hu Zongxian's side is over, the governor of Zhejiang will make the decision. Yan Hong got a woman and a field of silver this time, and he didn't bother to embarrass this dead dog again, but there was good food and drink in the prison, and he only told people to stare at death. Don't run away. As for whether to turn back is to cut or chop, whether it is a pit or a hanging. Look at your own creation.

Qi Jiguang said: "The soldiers invested by the Japanese in Taizhou this time are quite elite, and they have also been broken by us, and if you want to come to Hu Dashuai's side, most of them can also win." It is estimated that in a few days, there will be a document for our class teacher to return to Hangzhou. ”

So everyone is in Taizhou, and there is only one way to recuperate. Yan Hong had a high-level meeting with Prefect Ye, General Han and others every day, and rolled the sheets with two beauties at night. Sometimes he also goes out of the city to Sixiang and patrols the fields under his name. Qi Jiguang and his wife did not waste time, they still took the Zhejiang soldiers every day, practiced strictly, and taught the newly recruited more than 80 Taizhou locals in person. After a few days, these more than 80 people were in the ranks of the Zhejiang soldiers, and they were actually decent and new. is so serious, but Yan Hong is also a little ashamed.

Sure enough, a few days later, the military situation from Ningbo came to the news, saying that Hu Zongxian personally led the army to defeat Chen Dong and Ye Ma, and even Chen Ye and both of them were captured. Yan Hong and Qi Jiguang were both overjoyed, and this time the Japanese invaded in a big way, led by Chen Dong, Ye Ma and Xin Wulang. Now that two of them have been captured and one person has been beheaded, this time the plague is over. Immediately, Yan Hong transmitted the news in the army, in the city and in Sixiang, and even ordered a large display of wine and meat to reward the soldiers.

At the same time, the visitor also sent Hu Zongxian's official document, asking Yan Hong to lead Qi Jiguang's Zhejiang soldiers back to Hangzhou. At the same time, he also sent a sealed document to Geng Shaoquan, and he was immediately beheaded! As for the Geng family, his father was old and avoided death, the rest of the men were killed, and the women were rewarded with meritorious servants. His youngest son, who was four years old, was saved from death. This can be regarded as giving Yan Hong enough face, and all his requests will be accepted.

Of course, with Hu Zongxian's position, he didn't dare not to give face to Yan Daqin and Young Master Yan. And the so-called meritorious person actually refers to Yan Hong. Geng Shaoquan's female dependents thought that they would inevitably fall into the dust, and they were sent from then on, but they didn't expect to be spared by relying on the pillow wind of Huayue Fairy and Geng Jinling, and they were grateful. Yan Hong was not hungry, he had no interest in these remnants of flowers and willows, and he would not really take them back to Beijing, so he let them stay in Geng's village and let them marry someone else. If they are unwilling to marry, they will be given rice grain to support them on a monthly basis, but no one is allowed to invade them again. Hua and Geng's two daughters were able to follow Yan Hong back to Hangzhou, knowing that their identities would be different from those female dependents from now on, and they might really be able to raise the identity of a concubine and aunt, and they were all very happy, and the people who served them between the pillows were even more attentive.

After everything was settled, the army returned to Hangzhou. In order to prevent accidents, 300 Zhejiang soldiers were left to assist in the defense of Taizhou, and as for the original Taiyong retained personnel, after being screened by Qi Jiguang, 50 people were selected as the backbone training. With this force guarding the city, it is expected that there will be a small group of pirates harassing it, and there will be no hindrance. This group of people is majestic when they come, and even more majestic when they leave. When they came to Taizhou, the gentry sent a lot of money and rice to comfort the soldiers; Second, in the continuous battle, the troops did not suffer major losses, and the team that left the time was more than the number of people when they came.

It turned out that Zeng Shifang's group of Wenzhou martial arts people also followed the team and returned to Hangzhou. According to Zeng Shifang, Geng Shaoquan has been walking on the rivers and lakes for many years and has made many fox friends and dog friends. In case his henchmen avenge the thief and assassinate Qincha, who will bear this responsibility? Zhejiang soldiers can kill and fight well, there is no problem with this, but they are not clear about the means of the rivers and lakes, the open guns are easy to dodge, and the hidden arrows are difficult to defend, and they are not as reliable as their own Jianghu people.

Although Yan Hong saw Zeng Shifang's flamboyant tongue and flattery, he had no ill feelings towards this person, and knew that he had dealings with Xia Zisu's teacher, and he also wanted to take a roundabout route from him to understand Xia Zisu's whereabouts, so he did not object.

Although Qi Jiguang was quite disdainful of this kind of gangsters, he felt that having them mixed in the team had caused a serious decline in the overall combat effectiveness of his troops, and it was not as good as the pure Zhejiang soldiers. As for the assassination, if you are not afraid of death, just try it, you don't need Zhejiang soldiers, only I, Qi Jiguang, see who is close to Qincha's body?

But Qin Cha didn't object, so he didn't have an opinion. Fortunately, waste also has use value, he exterminated the Japanese Kou this time, and found a sword book of Aizhou Yin Liu from a dead corpse, in which the tricks are simple and practical, and there is no complicated and flashy martial arts in Middle-earth. He wanted to extract a knife technique from it and use it to teach soldiers, so he happened to discuss it with people like Zeng Shifang. Although it is said that he can beat Zeng Shifang at least two, but the stone of his mountain can attack jade, Zeng is a master of knife skills, and his opinions can also be referenced.

Therefore, along the way, Yan Hong was busy enjoying fun with Nahua and Geng's second daughter, so that Geng Shaoquan's bones were green. Qi Jiguang and a group of people in the rivers and lakes detailed the knife spectrum, and compiled a "Xinyou Knife Method" to teach soldiers to practice. Originally, the two-handed sword killing method of the Ming Dynasty has gradually been lost, and Qi Jiguang compiled the "Xinyou Knife Method" according to the swordsmanship secrets of the Yin Liu, Aizhou, which can be regarded as resurrecting the killing swordsmanship of the two-handed sword in the Ming Dynasty. It was not until a few years later that due to the loss of local swordsmanship, Japan sent people to China to learn the Xinyou sword technique to restore the inheritance of its own martial arts. Yun Chuqi praised the training of the Zhejiang army, exchanged and studied with the Zhejiang military officers from time to time, and by the way, he had a few more fights with Ye Zhengfei over the old debate of "the art of war or firearms".

Zeng Shifang's group of people were not idle, in addition to compiling the knife score, they each sent people back to Wenzhou to transfer people. This callback is not a miscellaneous soldier made up of rotten eggs and rotten tomatoes, but their respective henchmen, the masters who have become famous in the door, there is no one left, all of them will be pulled to Hangzhou for me to protect Qincha!

Zeng Shifang saw clearly that this was an opportunity for God to fall, and if he didn't seize it, he would be an idiot of Tianzi No. 1. As for the fact that this move has drained the descendants, will it cause other people in the sect to turn against the water, or be taken advantage of by other hateful sects to sneak attack? He's not afraid! It's best for you to rebel quickly, come and sneak attack, and then wait to be bombarded by the government to the scum! I'm not organizing people to go to the fire, this is protecting the Qincha! This kind of purpose is simply magnificent, who dares to oppose sabotage and push, that is ill-intentioned, that is vicious, that is to draw wages from the bottom of the imperial court's anti-Japanese plan, that is to fornicate with the White Lotus Sect!

Under the conscription of this banner made of super tiger skin, who else dares not to come? In the following decades, Wenzhou was respected in Zhejiang martial arts, Wenzhou martial arts was headed by the Longqian faction of Yandang Mountain North Sect, and even the bloodless merger of the three sects of Yandang, Zeng Shifang became the leader of the Zhejiang Wulin League, which has a great relationship with his decision today.

As for the cost of eating, drinking, and Lazar along the way, not to mention it! This is the protection of the Qin, all kinds of expenses are written off, and you don't have to pay out of your own pocket at all. And even if you really let you pay for this kind of pocket, do you have a loss if you pay it? Zeng Shifang specially told his son Zeng Jizu in the letter that he should bring all the cash in the family, not even the coffin book of my father, and bring it all. Your kid's future, our Zeng family's family business, in one fell swoop. This time, you must bet all the capital, and wait for the future to soar.

Along the way, Yan Hong gradually understood the process of the Ningbo War. It turned out that Chen Dong and Ye Ma entangled 20,000 people, and landed in Ningbo, but they were attacked by Hu Zongxian. Hu Zongxian has been training for a long time, and he has also received the help of businessmen this time, which can be said to be full of morale. Originally, even if the Japanese were inferior to the officers and soldiers in land warfare, they could have fought and retreated. But this time, Hu Zongxian had a battalion of Zhejiang soldiers under Qi Jiguang, and they bravely rushed to kill with a mandarin duck formation, which caused a great chaos among the Japanese invaders, so it became a trend of chasing the dead and chasing the north.

The ships left by Chen Dong and Ye Ma on the coast were attacked by Yu Dayou's naval division. Just as the two sides were fighting, Yu Dayou followed Yan Hong's explanation and pulled Yan Hong's flag on the bow of the ship. However, Xu Haiqin led his troops to kill and intercepted Chen Dong and Ye Ma's back road. That Chen and Ye Suobu were originally not as elite as Xu Hai, and their brigades were all on the shore, how could the ships left behind resist? gave Xu Hai and Yu Dayou a pincer attack and wiped them out. Then Xu Hai and Yu Dayou divided their troops and landed ashore, Chen Dong and Ye Ma were pinched on the abdomen and back, and finally the whole army was annihilated, and even the two were captured by Hu Zongxian.
