Chapter 272: The middle-aged uncle in Yushu's wind
Ten days later, the Zheng family's fleet arrived in the waters of the main island of Zhoushan.
In the binoculars, Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian saw those small fishing boats running around in fright, and he muttered in his mouth: "Fuck you, run away, my old Zheng is here to save you—"
However, he was very satisfied with the big sand boats that lined up on the pier with the undulating waves, and these people did not have any men to supervise them, which I will take into account in the future.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian could see that there were only a few people running back and forth on each boat, looking very panicked.
What's the use of being in a hurry? For a large sand boat, just one sail lifting action is not enough for thirty people.
At this time the wind in the north began to get stronger, and the two large plywood boats were a little bumpy, and the sailors on board began to hurry up, constantly adjusting the sails, which was the disadvantage of the soft sails, and needed to be adjusted at any time - the sand boats that followed behind them were as if nothing had happened, and the boats kept shouting, and the sailors kept adjusting the angles of the hard sails, and the boats were raised at once.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian said with great momentum at this time: "Order them to storm the dock!" ”
The big plywood boats struck gongs and banged again -- and some people waved the Zhengzi flag at the many sand boats.
Many sand boats rushed directly to the pier. Although the invaders with the banner of the Zheng family had already appeared on the wharf, they were still in a hurry, and for a long time, the four cannons on the wharf continued to sound - when Zhoushan was captured, fortunately, these gunners were not slaughtered, and all the dead were Huang Binqing's cronies.
Four guns overturned two sand boats when they boarded, and one stopped, probably under fire, and was being flooded.
"Shoot back!" Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian was so angry that he almost threw the telescope, but you guys fired first!
The plywood ship is still adjusting its position. You really can't blame the sailors for being incompetent, this period is not the period of going north at all, let alone fighting!
Fortunately, the small cannon on the bow of the sand boat also fired, of course, it did not cause any essential damage to the battery on the pier, only the lucky few hit the dock, still some distance from the battery, and not even a single civilian was injured - but this also had the effect of delaying the time of the battery, and the next round of fire took a little longer, but it caused damage to the sand boat team, and another ship was sunk -
At this time, the two large plywood boats finally adjusted their positions, and the gun windows were opened one by one, and when the people on the fort saw it, they immediately jumped and ran away, and they didn't play with you.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian saw it in the telescope, and he scolded: "Fuck you, you want to run?!" Fire the cannon and flatten the fort for me! ”
In the end, the shelling is inseparable from the probability problem of mathematics, and dozens, dozens of them have been hit, and one battery has been blown down in the end.
The soldiers of the Zheng family, who had already gone ashore, watched the scene on the other side of the pier for a long time, during which they also searched all the forts. Amid their applause, the fort collapsed.
The two large plywood boats finally landed on the dock, and everyone began to unload all kinds of objects in a chaotic manner--Zheng Lian, the Marquis of Dingyuan, suddenly remembered the teaching of the advisory group--this time is the most vulnerable time to the enemy's attack! Ahh
His general pouted and thought, what else is there to defend? There was no one on the dock, and the gates of Zhoushan City would have been closed long ago - if you had asked me to wait for the impact, Zhoushan City would have been taken down!
In the midst of all kinds of chaotic scenes, the soldiers on the two large plywood boats also slipped down the dock with the help of various cables.
Some of them sat and chatted on the docks, some walked back and forth, some kept bouncing, and they did everything anyway. It wasn't until the marching cannon was carefully put down that in the sound of bamboo whistles, Zheng Jiajun reorganized the army.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian first asked about the casualties, and then nodded, indicating that he recognized the loss, there were only more than 200 dead and wounded, this is a dock, and it is definitely a victory - he said softly to his partial general: "You must blame me for not ordering the capture of the city, this is your lack of strategic vision - I am waiting, not to attack the city, but to the side of the Qing monarch, it is easy to take Zhoushan City, but how many casualties will be killed?" You have to have a love for the people - a qualified labor force is a quota of grenades, muskets, and guns.
You don't know what a quota is -- I won't say it for the time being, you'll know it later -- people are the primary productive force! ”
“――”
Zheng Lian, Marquis of Dingyuan, faced the army in full gear and shouted: "Qingjun side, welcome the king of Lu!" Open the banner that we're waiting for!! ”
This army rumbled and marched towards Zhoushan City with righteousness. In front of them, a huge banner was held high, "Qing Jun Side, Welcome Lu King".
Fortunately, Zhoushan City was less than three miles away from the wharf, and the whole army quickly stopped under the city, and the six artillery pieces on the main gate of Zhoushan City were in a safe position. It can be seen from this that the Zheng family's meticulous work has been done very meticulously.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian found a higher position, observed, he now has a lot of soldiers on the city wall, judging from the banners arranged on the city wall, it seems that the generals have all arrived - just enough to serve in a pot.
"Someone, shoot the letter we're waiting for!"
An archer took out the arrows he had prepared and walked slowly towards the wall. There was a letter tied to the arrow—he didn't even remove the arrow, and he threw himself up at the wall. As long as he flew up, he didn't care where he fell, and then he ran back in small steps.
The generals on the city wall of Zhoushan have indeed been dispatched, and if they don't come out, they can't do it, this is an island, the wharf is occupied, and the warships are gone, so everyone can only come out collectively to face the problem.
The current leader of this group of military attaches is Zhang Mingzhen.
Zhang Mingzhen, the word Hou Fu, should be Tianjiang Ning. When he was young, he was upright and bold, quite strategic, and ambitious. Traveling to Beijing, Cao Huachun, the eunuch of Dongchang, was introduced as a guest and had a close relationship with the Donglin Party.
At the end of Chongzhen, he served as a guerrilla in Shipu, Taizhou, as a deputy general. In the summer of 1645, Nanjing and Hangzhou were lost one after another, and Qian Sule and others raised troops to support the king of Lu and the state in Shaoxing, and Zhang Mingzhen went with troops. In 1646, King Lu was defeated and retreated into the sea, and Zhang Mingzhen obeyed. Soon, King Lu went to Xiamen, and Zhang Mingzhen stayed in Zhoushan to wait. In 1649, this person united with Ruan Jin, a subordinate of Huang Binqing, the general soldier of Zhoushan in the year of Fenglongwu, to force Huang to commit suicide, and Zhang Mingzhen was able to welcome King Lu to officially stationed in Zhoushan.
Later, he was named the general of the water 6, and the two armies of Shuai Shui 6 were stationed in Zhoushan, of course, now only the 6th army remains.
After hastily sheltering the fleeing sailors, they closed the gates tightly.
Now they were all dressed up, and they all went up to the top of the city to see.
I saw that the army had a clear banner, neat uniforms, bright swords and guns, and a huge banner that attracted people's attention, "Qingjun side, welcome the king of Lu".
Everyone took a breath of cool air in unison, this Zheng family took out all the family resources - what is the matter?
While they were speculating, an archer stepped out of the army, leaned back and shot an arrow with a letter tied to it.
Everyone opened it and took a look, only then did they understand the reason - they were sent to King Lu to supervise the country first, and now they don't know what he is in a hurry.
Everyone unconsciously turned their eyes to Zhang Mingzhen - when Yongshengbo Zheng Cai drowned the minister, it was he who was furious, and he was inseparable from Yongshengbo Zheng Cai's declaration on the spot - if the Zheng family's accusation is true, then this must be done by Zhang Mingzhen.
Zhang Mingzhen smiled slightly, and said: "Someone assassinated the Marquis of Dingyuan, in order to hurt Yongshengbo-this villain's behavior, although Hou obeyed the ugly person, he would not do it-"
After thinking about it for a while, everyone also understood-how can they have the energy to assassinate Dingyuan Hou when they are in ruins? And just settled in Zhoushan, how would you know that he Dingyuan Marquis can dine at what Reshalan market in Taiwan? ?
This matter must have been a misunderstanding, or a discordant plan of the Manchu Qing Dynasty - everyone's eyes lit up, and they looked at Zhang Mingzhen again - his relationship with Zheng Lian, Marquis of Dingyuan, was still good, and there must be room for resolution in this matter.
Zhang Mingzhen lightly stroked his long beard and said indifferently: "Colleagues, we are only stable, it is not appropriate to dance with knives and guns - there must be a misunderstanding in this matter, and the bell must be tied to the bell, and the letter implies the meaning of identifying Hou Fu, it must not be from the heart of Dingyuan Hou, it must be the meaning of Yongshengbo, this matter is easy to do - come to someone, change my clothes for me, take the hanging basket, lift me down, and I will talk to Dingyuan Hou!" In any case, don't open the gates of the city to save me - they have come from afar, and they lack siege weapons, so it is not difficult to hold Zhoushan City-"
Everyone was happy at the moment, but they all made solemn expressions on their faces, "No! ”
Dingyuan Hou Zheng Lian saw Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Houfu in the telescope.
I saw him dressed in a scholar's white coat with a blue edge, a scholar's scarf on his head, and a folding fan in his hand, coming out of the hanging basket and staggering towards the army-someone secretly praised: What a middle-aged uncle in the wind in Yushu!
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian's head began to hurt. The eldest brother told him in advance that this Zhang Mingzhen will definitely come out strong, don't listen to any of their words at that time, if the words are useful, what else do you have to do with knives and guns? !
Zhang Mingzhen came to this army in the way of an elegant gentleman, and after a little gesture, he said: "Is the Marquis of Dingyuan available?" The deceased Zhang Houfu came to visit! ”
Zheng Jiajun in the front row automatically separated an alley on both sides, and at this time, Zheng Lian, the Marquis of Dingyuan, walked out with a smile in his head.
"Haha, who am I-it turned out to be General Zhang Houfu! Someone, arrest him—"
Many people were stunned, this, this is not logical, how can you say a few words, the last person will only arrest someone when he is poor or something, right?
Two soldiers were obedient and immediately rushed forward, but it turned out that this Hou suit was really good at two hits, and he didn't subdue it for a while. Only then did the others react, and a dozen more went up, and then succeeded.
General Zhang Mingzhen's square scarf fell off, his head fell apart, the folding fan was broken, the straight shirt was torn, and a shoe was lost.
General Zhang Mingzhen was about to curse when a soldier grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, when he only thought about spitting out the sand.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian nodded with satisfaction to the soldier who stuffed the sand and expressed his appreciation. Then the soldier was still stuffed, and Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian hurriedly said: "Forget it, forget it, don't choke him." Hou Fu, I must say that you can't, the result is the same, what else do I say?! I'm here to save people, and you'll find out later—"
General Zhang Mingzhen was so angry that he couldn't speak, his face was red, and he could only whine and scream.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian waved his hand and asked people to take him down. He turned back and saw a commotion on the city wall, and he said softly, "Really, we really came to save you, but you don't know—alas! ”
In the past ten days, Zheng Lian, Marquis of Dingyuan, has not had the energy to clean up his beard - his face now full of stubble shows a faint sadness -
