"Master, Lord Tong asks to see you."

"Tong Gui? What is he here for? Look at the old man's jokes. Shanahai, who was closed in Jingzhou City and waiting for sin, closed the thread-bound book in his hand and coldly swept the relatives in front of him. When I went back to him, the old man was uncertain and disappeared. "I retreated with my own promise, and after a while, the front yard suddenly became noisy, and Shanahai was about to find someone to inquire, but when he saw Tong Gui wielding a horse whip breaking in, he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, so he stood up and asked loudly. Lord Tong, Deputy Commander Tong, I'm afraid the will of the imperial court hasn't arrived yet, what's the matter, are you so eager to bring people to raid the house? ”

"Sir!" Tong Gui didn't care about refuting Shanahai's angry words, but only said it directly. "Please hurry up and follow the lower officials."

Shanahai was stunned: "What's wrong?" It's hard to make it a sea rebellion to attack the camp, but even if the sea counterattacks the camp, there are so many capable generals under the command of the prince, there are not many old husbands, and there are many young old husbands, and the old husband treats the guilty people, so he won't join in the fun. ”

"Boss, stop talking angry." Tong Gui's eyelids jumped wildly, but Shanahai insisted on not leaving, and he had no choice but to keep it secret. "It's not good, Yue Shenglong is rebellious, and Hai Reverse surrounded and annihilated 20,000 Xuzhou reinforcements in Tang County two days ago, and it is estimated that now Xiangfan has been surrounded by Hai Rebellion." Shanahai's face changed suddenly, and he listened to Tong Gui continue. "Now the whole camp in Zhennan has panicked, and I ask the boss to enter the camp immediately to preside over military affairs."

"Yue Shenglong defected to the enemy? Xiangfan is besieged? Shanahai's eyebrows furrowed, and then he replied in a nonchalant tone. I thought the sky was falling, it turned out that Xiangfan was surrounded, what is so terrible, in the past, the Song army had been working hard in Xiangyang for more than ten years, and the Mongolian army could not go down, although the Gartu Lord did not have many soldiers, but it was not a problem to insist on three months, and there were three months, forcing the Zhennan battalion to return to the division to defeat the Zheng army. ”

"Boss, the sea can besiege the city for three months, and the officers and soldiers are afraid that they won't be able to hold out for even ten days." Tong Gui said with a panicked face. "The boss probably doesn't know that the people in eastern Sichuan are in turmoil, there are mobs claiming to be the former king of Mingning, seizing Chongqing and Kuizhou, and the grain road in Sichuan has been cut off for many days, and now the camp in Zhennan has less than ten days of military rations."

"What, the grain road in the river is cut off." Shana Hai was really moved. "Why doesn't the old man know." As soon as the words came out, Shanahai remembered that he was no longer the deputy general of Zhennan and the general of Jingzhou, so he asked angrily. "Why didn't you deal with it sooner! What do you dare to eat? ”

Tong Gui's face was very embarrassed: "At that time, I just thought it was an ordinary rebel, but how did I know that they not only succeeded, but also made such a big fuss, and at that time, if I let the northern Sichuan Town return to the division, I was afraid that the whole camp would be turbulent, so, so"

Shanahai immediately laughed angrily when he heard this: "So you just let the grain road be cut off, okay, great, why are there so many bastards among our people, no wonder you lost half of the south of the Yangtze River, it's really a long face for the ancestors and ancestors!" ”

Having said that, the shape has forced Shanahai to no longer stand on the sidelines: "Come on, prepare the horses!" ”

By the time Shanahai hurried to the camp in the south of the town, everyone below Nertu had been looking forward to it, but Shanahai didn't want to listen to them shushing and asking for warmth, so as soon as he sat down, he asked with a slap on his face: "What is the movement of Jiangbian Hai Rebellion now?" ”

Nartu, who replaced the sick and Ananda, who was in charge of military affairs in Shanahai, who had voluntarily left the company, reported: "There has been no movement. ”

"That's good!" Shanahai gasped. "Jiangbian Haizhi hasn't gotten news from the north yet, so we still have a chance." Speaking of which, Shanahai ordered. "Without further ado, troops must be withdrawn today"

Retreating in front of the enemy was a big move, and Shanahai didn't expect to hide it from Zheng Jun, so he played tricks first. On the one hand, the Qing army once again lined up to make a posture of attacking again, and on the other hand, more than ten Wucheng Yonggu generals launched artillery to bombard the Zheng military camp. Taking advantage of the fact that Zheng Jun's attention was attracted, Ananda, Zhu Duna and others led the battalions of the Beijing Banner to immediately escort Nertu back north. As for Balhu and Tong Gui, they rushed back to Jingzhou and led the Jingzhou Banner Battalion to escort the families of officers and soldiers as the second echelon to the north.

Of course, the Mongolian horse team also wanted to escape as soon as possible, but Shanahai held all the Mongolian nobles in his hands and coerced the Mongolian horse team to advance and retreat with him. Shanahai's idea, of course, was to use the Mongol cavalry to counter-charge the Zheng army that might be in pursuit, but his actions obviously damaged the interests of the Mongol princes, and as a result, although the Mongol horse team did not retreat, they had no fighting spirit below the rank of colonel, and instead became a big drag on Shanahai.

Because the news of the siege of Xiangyang spread among the army early in the morning, a group of green battalion generals were also very dissatisfied with the practice of Shanahai taking the green battalion as the palace army, among which the military morale of Chuanzhong Town was the most unstable. It was only that Zheng Jun was in a posture of being beaten and had no intention of going to war, so that the Qing army did not collapse on the spot.

However, the Shana Sea plan was still not completely successful, and the key problem was the Jingzhou Banner Camp. Jingzhou Qiying has also been settled in Jingzhou for ten years, and there are more or less bottles and cans to take away. There are some bottles and cans in this household, and there are 4,000 bottles and cans in 4,000 banner soldiers. Of course, the truth is not so exaggerated, but the soldiers may not have so many belongings, but the chief, co-leader, and deputy all have wives and children and savings, so they can't just say that they will withdraw as expected by Shanahai, and as a result, Shanahai has to adjust the time of the general retreat.

I heard that I had to pretend to be in front of Zheng Jun for a day the next day, and all the towns in the green camp were clamoring, and Shanahai personally led the team to patrol the camp and killed more than 50 leaders Benme, which suppressed the dissatisfaction of the green camp, but Shanahai, who was sitting on pins and needles, knew that he was sitting on the crater of the volcano and could be burned by the fire at any time.

But the wheel of history is unstoppable by the Shana Sea, and on this night, Zheng Kezhang finally got the good news from the northern front. For this easy-to-reach victory, Zheng Kezhang also sighed abnormally - speaking of which, Lin Sheng's condition for inheriting Yue Shenglong actually did not obtain Zheng Kezang's consent, and it belonged to the first cut and then the prelude, but Zheng Kezhang would not care about it, after all, he knew the truth that the opportunity could not be lost, so it was inevitable to recognize it afterwards - there was also a clear answer to the abnormal behavior of the Qing army during the day. In this case, although it was eight hours later than the Qing army's Zhennan camp, Zheng Kezhang still responded immediately.

Early the next morning, the Qing army, which intended to stand on the last shift, went out again. But something unexpected happened, and Zheng Jun had already set up a formation to meet him. If this had been a few days ago, Shanahai or Ananda would have been overjoyed, but now, Shanahai, who is holding his scalp, has no choice but to continue singing.

For a time, artillery fire on both sides resumed its violation. On the Qing side, because the gunners of the Xi'an Firearms Battalion had retreated overnight, it was the gunners from various towns who operated the Wucheng Yonggu General Cannon and the Shenwei General Cannon, and these people had never operated the Qiying Artillery before, so they did not know the dosage of the charge. Fearing that more guns of the Green Battalion would be able to blow up the chamber, they consciously and voluntarily reduced the number of charges, so they led the transfer of the weapons of murder to the fireworks shells. Although the Zheng army had hundreds of artillery pieces mounted on the Mamian Fort and could not be withdrawn, the remaining 30-odd two-inch and three-inch field guns were astonishingly powerful, which made the Qing army, which was already shaken, suffer for a long time in the rain of bullets.

Taking advantage of the fact that their own artillery suppressed the Qing artillery team, the Zheng army, which was lined up in a horizontal formation of four divisions, began to slowly move forward. Because the Qing army in the Zhennan camp had never fought with Zheng Junsheng in the field, they were at a loss when they saw Zheng Jun in action, and finally reacted when they saw the banner of Shana Hai in the camp, and approached Zheng Jun unevenly.

After entering each other for a hundred paces, Zheng's infantry began to fire a salvo at the approaching Qing army in three formations. The first few platoons did not cause major casualties, but as the Qing army gradually entered fifty paces, the power of the Zheng army's salvo was revealedβ€”the Zheng army's infantry could penetrate the heavy armor within thirty paces, and only a few of the green flag soldiers were wearing armor, so the sweeping bullet hit the rows of green battalion soldiers, almost sweeping away the remaining elites in the already broken Qing army battalions.

By the time the Qing army finally broke into the smoke caused by Zheng Jun's shooting, Zheng Jun's gun forest had also been re-established. Looking at the rows of stabbing spears and spear tips, the Green Battalion soldiers, who had learned the power of Zheng Jun's spears several times, collapsed almost instantly. Countless Green Battalion soldiers dropped their weapons and fled in all directions, as if they were in a hurry, thinking that as long as they left this battlefield, they would be able to escape. The fleeing Qing army led the brigade behind, and the Green Flag soldiers, who didn't want to fight again, scattered in a hurry, and even the battalion officers and even the town generals and assistant generals fled for their own lives, not caring at all about the reaction of the Shana Hai, which was still in the Chinese army.

Seeing the countless scenes of the Qing army fleeing, Shanahai knew that the general situation was gone, but he still refused to give up, so he ordered the Mongol horse team to attack the flank of the Zheng army. However, after Shanahai's order was issued, the Mongolian horse team demanded that Shanahai put the princes back in command. Although Shanahai knew that this might be a pretext, it had reached this point, and he could only accept the coercion. Shanahai was not mistaken, after a dozen Mongol princes returned to the horse team, the Mongol army did not charge at the Zheng army, but cut down the Green Banner soldiers who stood in their way of retreat and flew away.

After seeing this blood-vomiting scene, Shanahai leaned back and sighed: "Your Majesty, the minions have done their best, and the overall situation is so corrupt, it is not the sin of the minions." ”

After that, Shana elevated the sword killed himself. But Shanahai, who did not forget to be loyal to Kangxi before he died, never thought that Nertu and others, who had managed to get away from the net of the Zheng army after many difficulties and dangers, and those Mongolian princes who used horses to get rid of Zheng Jun's pursuit and killing, blamed themselves for the defeat of the Battle of Huguang, so that the old and young people of Shanahai were told that they were matched by the wise and holy Kangxi with Ningguta, and they could not turn over forever
