The Houjin army was not inexperienced in dealing with such an enemy - when even dozens of strong men who were also wearing multiple layers of heavy armor and armed with giant axes and hammers stepped forward to prepare for battle - the so-called "heavy armor" could only defend against bows, arrows and crossbows, and was useless in front of such hard guys as hammers and axes. Only "heavy troops" can deal with "heavy troops", and this is the experience of Houjin. Speaking of frontal hard work, the Jurchen warriors have never been afraid of anyone!
From the other side of the gap, a helmet with a metallic sheen slowly rises, and then there is the armor that looks very strong at the edges...... Although they knew that it was not very useful, the Houjin archers on this side still shot a few arrows first, and then they were bounced off or blocked, and it was really useless. The clumsy hoplite still slowly but surely stepped on the planks under his feet and walked step by step up the city walls.
On either side of the plank, there were many greenskins trying to hold on to the board, but even so, the makeshift passage was narrow and fragile, with a maximum of two people at a time. On the other side of the gap, more than a dozen golden knife and axe men were already eyeing each other, just waiting for the person on the opposite side to rush up and split his body as soon as he came out - no matter how good you are, you can't withstand the siege of a dozen knives and axes!
However, the heavy-armored greenskin on the opposite side did not rush into the murderous sword and axe formation here, and stopped his action when he showed half of his body on the side of the gap. Although through the heavy mask, the Houjin soldiers here seemed to be able to feel it, and there was a hint of a smile in the man's eyes.
Then, the man raised a shorter, but more intricately styled firebolt, and the mouth of the black hole was not deliberately aimed, but casually pointed at the side of the gap. At the same time, a second, equally dressed and armed with the same weapon, emerged from the gap......
"Dada...... Click...... Rumble! β¦β¦ Rumble! β
When short bursts of gunfire and grenade explosions rang out one after another, the siege entered garbage time.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Only more than ten days later, Shang Kexi rushed back with a large group of people.
From his defense of Guanglu Island to the city of Fuzhou, it is necessary to cross the Liaodong Peninsula, although it is only a relatively narrow section at the southern end, but it is also a full distance of more than 150 miles. Coupled with the time it took to cross the sea from Hiroshima and go ashore, with the quality of the Ming army, it was absolutely unprecedented to be able to complete this journey in more than ten days.
Shang Kexi was originally a little proud of this, but at such a fast speed he thought of, when he led people to Fuzhou City, most of the battle was not over. At that time, these soldiers under his command may still be able to play a key role - although short-haired and generous, he is willing to give himself a big gift, but if he does not show some real skills, even if he gets benefits from the other party, his heart is not steady.
With this in mind, he urged his subordinates to act quickly all the way, but when he reached the left of Fuzhou, he slowed down a little so that his subordinates could regain some strength in order to face the ensuing fierce battle.
However, to his surprise, when the team rushed to the city of Fuzhou, they saw that the city was quiet, and it did not look like it was fighting at all. Shang Kexi was suddenly shocked, and said in his heart that Isn't it that the short hair is too wasteful, and he has been defeated by the Tartars and retreated? If that's the case, won't your team become a door-to-door delivery of food?
Fortunately, this tension did not last long, because he soon saw that a sun, moon, and golden dragon flag were already flying on the head of Fuzhou City, which was also the only place where the short-haired army was similar to the Ming army.
So Shang Kexi entered Fuzhou City with mixed emotions of surprise and joy, his original plan to "show his face" failed, but the Fuzhou City that looked very complete, as if it had not experienced war at all, gave him a joy - Xie Junmen promised to leave everything in Fuzhou City to him! The more intact the city remains, the more nature he will catch. Moreover, Shang Kexi marched with the Qiong Navy for a few days, and was already blinded by the "local tyrants" of the short-haired army. So he wasn't worried that the other party would break his promise, and with Qiongjun's family background, he would definitely not look down on the storage materials of the Tartars.
The only thing that made him a little puzzled was why the Tartar soldiers in Fuzhou handed over the city so easily? Those people are not weak. However, this question was completely answered after he approached the city gate of Fuzhou - he could see from a distance that there was a mound of earth piled up on the side of the road next to the city gate, and when he got closer, even Shang Kexi, a veteran general who had been in the army since childhood and had been in the battlefield for a long time, was taken aback.
-- The "mound" was completely made with grinning teeth and a head with a pigtail of money on the back of the head, and the Qiong Navy actually used the heads of the Houjin soldiers to build a Jingguan under the city of Fuzhou! Shang Kexi has been fighting with Houjin for many years, and he can see at a glance that those heads are definitely "Zhenyi", and they are not filled with the Han Army Flag at all, and the number is estimated to be more than three hundred!
"How did they fight this, the defenders of the city are all over, and few of them escaped?"
Shang Kexi was quite puzzled, with his experience, more than 300 Zhenyi's heads were cut off, which meant that there must be more than double the Han army flags and miscellaneous soldiers destroyed, and the Qiong Navy killed at least a thousand Tartar soldiers in this battle.
There is no doubt that this is all the power of Houjin in Fuzhou. Shang Kexi had also calculated their military strength when he was operating with Qiongzhen before, and at best there were only more than 2,000 people. After more than 1,000 Houjin troops, they also met the requirements of "double the siege" in the art of war, but the siege was a little reluctant. Not to mention that in such a few days, the opponent was completely wiped out neatly...... Shang Kexi was proud of his bravery and didn't have much interest in firearms, so he couldn't help but take a few peeks at the strange firearms in the hands of the surrounding Qiong Navy soldiers again, and said in his heart that that thing is really so powerful?
With all sorts of thoughts, he was brought to the table. The latter was standing on the highest watchtower of the Fuzhou city wall at this time, looking in the direction of the sea. Shang Kexi noticed that on the other side of the bay, there were many large ships anchored near the sea, and there were more small boats going back and forth between the coast and the big ships, barging people and supplies. In fact, there is a very good harbor here in Fuzhou, but there is a serious lack of artificial facilities such as wharves - there are not many in the first place, and they are even more damaged in the hands of the Houjin soldiers who never go to the sea, and they are completely inadequate. Therefore, the short-haired navy can only rely on barges as it does on the wild tidal flats.
Seeing Shang Kexi coming over, Xie Xi didn't look back, but only said lightly:
"You're a little slow, but you're lucky to have arrived in time, and if it's a few days late, we'll have to leave."
The sentence of dismissal, as well as the fact that the Qiong Navy is withdrawing troops, made Shang Kexi, who was still a little proud, smile bitterly - it seems that the concept of "speed" of the Short-haired Army is completely different from that of our Ming Army. Fortunately, Xie Junmen just said it casually, and the things promised before did not change:
"Now, this city, along with all the people and materials in it, belongs to you...... How many of you came? β
"A thousand...... In less than a little, there are no more than 2,000 people who can arrive one after another within half a month, and we will act separately. β
Shang Kexi responded with a little embarrassment, if you march in a hurry, there will definitely be many people left behind. If he loses the battle, most of them will be dispersed, but since he has a city now, I believe that it won't be long before his subordinates will find them one after another. After all, it is not easy to find a place to manage food in Liaodong these days.
And Xie Junmen really didn't care much about this, but nodded and said:
"It's almost enough, anyway, it's impossible for Jin Bing to come back in a short period of time...... However, General Shang, do you have any plans for the future strategy of the Dongjiang Army? β
- It's coming! Shang Kexi's heart suddenly became hot, the other party was willing to ask like this, obviously planning to push him, at this time, you must not say the wrong thing. So Shang Kexi immediately bowed down and said in a deep voice:
"I don't know what the military gate thinks the last general should do? I hope to give you advice. β
ββIt's hard to guess what Shorthair thinks, and whatever you say can be wrong, so just ask the other person what they want. Do what you say!
This is Shang Kexi's coping strategy that he had thought of in advance, and when he showed it at this time, he saw a slight smile on the face of the Xie Junmen on the other side, and it seemed that he was very satisfied with his acquaintance.
Sure enough, the dismissal did not hide it, and directly demanded:
"Survive! Our requirement for the Dongjiang Army is very simple, that is, to continue to survive in the rear of the Tartar soldiers in this Liaodong land. As long as you can maintain your presence on the flanks of Houjin, so that they cannot concentrate their forces, and you must always maintain the military defense line in the southern and northern Liaoning areas, your main task will be accomplished. β
"As for sending troops to fight, fighting hard-to-head with the Tartar soldiers, this is not your strength, and there is no need to force it."
Xie Xi's casual tone made Shang Kexi a little depressed, but the commander of Qionghai Town, who had just completely wiped out the defenders of Fuzhou, was definitely qualified to say this, so he could only listen patiently:
"If the Tartars call, run first, run out of their reachβlike on Immortal Island."
Xie Xi casually pointed to the direction of the seaside - Changsheng Island next to Fuzhou, that is, Changxing Island in later generations, was still separated from the mainland during the Ming Dynasty, and the middle was a strait of several hundred meters, but for the post-Jin soldiers of this era, it already belonged to the moat.
"Your Dongjiang Army first made its fortune on Phi Island, and you also garrisoned Guanglu Island before, so you should be very skilled in using the island to avoid the Tartar soldiers, right?"
Shang Kexi smiled bitterly and nodded:
"The last general has some small boats in his hands, and the sons and daughters are also quite knowledgeable about water......"
Xie Xi looked at his face and suddenly smiled:
"No, you don't have to feel ashamed, this kind of thing is a very normal strategy of 'the enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I advance'. The Houjin soldiers are not good at water warfare, and it is definitely smart for us to use this to deal with them. As long as you don't blindly hide on the island and don't dare to send troops, you are not considered cowardly. (To be continued.) )
