It's a pity that these grenadiers were also destroyed by the Fusang soldiers, and there were no grenadiers and shells in the military town, which made Li Dingguo very angry, in order to let Li Dingguo enjoy the victory, the old steamed bun specially sent him twenty rifles and five hundred rounds of ammunition, which made Li Dingguo happy, and studied the rifle in the military camp all day long.

The army rested in the military town of Songpu for several days, and then went to Fenghua with the booty.

At this time, the rebels in Fenghua knew that Li Hun had been killed and the base camp had been breached, and most of the rebels had no fighting spirit, but Fusang Zhongsa Heimuyi ordered a surprise attack on the rebels, killing all the middle and senior generals of the rebels, and forcing the rebels to continue fighting.

In Fenghua and the rebels are fighting the Iron Fist Legion, under the leadership of Shi Tie, it is to besiege but not attack, wandering outside Fenghua City all day long, not that Shi Tie is afraid of death, but Shi Tie has also seen the horror of the Fusang people's weapons, and attacking Fenghua will only be a senseless sacrifice.

The Ming army did not attack, and Heimuyi led the troops to attack from the city, but as long as the rebels attacked, the Ming army retreated.

The rebels attacked several times, but they did not cause any casualties to the Ming army, and the demoralized rebels were even more demoralized.

Heimuyi decided to break through and retreat his troops to Fujian, where there was still an imperial army.

Just the day before he broke through, Ling Jingyang led his troops to Fenghua, because there were not many gunners in Ling Jingyang's army, and the artillery he brought did not work, but fortunately, the next day, Li Liyun, Li Dingguo, and Lao Mantou came with troops.

The old steamed bun saw so many generals' cannons for the first time, and he was surprised that he couldn't make a sound, Ling Jingyang didn't talk nonsense with him, and asked him to immediately fire the cannon at Fenghua, and bombed the rebels and Fusang soldiers in the city into slag.

Lao Slow and the soldiers of the artillery battalion were so proud in their hearts that they immediately controlled the artillery, and hundreds of large and small cannons roared at the rebels in the city.

The Black Curtain was gathering troops in the city to prepare for a breakout, and the roaring cannonballs made the city bloom all over the city, and the rebels were blown up and wept wolves, and mutilated corpses were everywhere.

The rebels did not want to be killed inside the city, so they rushed to open the city gates and surrender to the Ming army outside the city.

Hei Muyi was lying on the city wall, seeing the Ming army firing a hundred cannons, he hated in his heart, the Fusang Empire did not have artillery, but the artillery was more powerful, but it was not easy to transport, and he was afraid of being captured by the Ming people on the battlefield.

As a result, the powerful artillery was not transported over the island, but some grenadiers were brought, and in the face of such old-fashioned artillery of the Ming army, the shady people were stunned and could not find a tactic to resist.

Shamuyi thought that the Ming army's bombardment was endless, and he had the meaning of not giving up until Fenghua City was bombarded.

Fortunately, after a morning of artillery bombardment, the roar finally stopped, and the black curtain returned to the barracks from the city wall, and the Fusang army still had more than 900 people, scattered in all corners of the city, waiting for the Ming army to enter the city to fight in the streets, with Fusang soldiers equipped with rifles and grenades, and the Ming army entered the city to fight street battles, how many were there and how many died.

Heimuyi ordered the city gate to be closed, and there were still thousands of rebels in the city who had not left the city, and their eyes were red by the bombardment of the Ming army, and they were determined to defend Fenghua City with Fusang soldiers.

Ling Jingyang has no interest in fighting the rebels in the city to the end, the main purpose of his coming to Zhejiang is to take back the rights of King Lu and make King Lu a prince who eats and waits for death.

He asked Wei Lan to lead his direct troops to the Zhoushan Islands, told King Lu that the rebels had been wiped out, and asked King Lu to return to land.

In fact, there is no need to listen to Jingyang to invite King Lu back, King Lu himself can't bear it, there are not many supplies in the Zhoushan Islands, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians on the island are almost out of food.

Zhang Huangyan, the general under his command, was determined to lead the remaining soldiers and horses to a decisive battle with the rebels, but before he could wait for the decisive battle, a group of Ming troops drove hundreds of rebel prisoners to the shore, telling him that the rebels had been exterminated by the governor of Lingdu, and asked the soldiers and civilians on the island to come back.

Zhang Huangyan didn't believe it, Wei Lan ordered the troops to retreat five miles, leaving Zhang Huangyan with a large landing area, Zhang Huangyan returned to land with the troops, and Wei Lan did not make an offensive posture.

The peaceful posture of Weilan's soldiers and horses made Zhang Huangyan believe Weilan's words, and he ordered his henchmen to return to the island and report to King Lu that the rebels had been wiped out.

King Lu did not show hatred and joy, but secretly ordered Zhang Huangyan to quickly seize important places, so as not to be occupied by the Hongguang court in the entire eastern Zhejiang region.

The Ming Dynasty was like this, King Lu was still fighting for power, Zhang Huangyan was not good, so he had to lead his troops to Taizhou Mansion.

But without waiting for the troops to set off, Ling Jingyang came with the main force, bluntly said that Fenghua still had rebels, and asked Zhang Huangyan to lead his troops to Fenghua to eliminate the last rebels.

Zhang Huangyan felt a little terrified when he thought of the mercenaries invited by the rebels, but Ling Jingyang told him that the rebels were surrounded, and as long as they were surrounded without attacking, the rebels would be starved to death.

Zhang Huangyan and Ling Jingyang are not familiar with each other, and they do not trust Ling Jingyang.

But Ling Jingyang admired him very much, and in order to persuade King Lu to give up power, Ling Jingyang led three hundred guards to Zhang Huangyan's military camp that night and personally met Zhang Huangyan.

The governor of the five armies visited in person, Zhang Huangyan was a little flattered, and he ordered a good student to entertain Ling Jingyang.

Ling Jingyang and his party

When I came to the barracks, I was stunned by Zhang Huangyan's troops, where is this regular army, it is completely a group of armed people, many soldiers are tied with a red belt on their heads, and some soldiers are carrying kitchen knives, and their equipment is rudimentary to the extreme.

Zhang Huangyan had been waiting for Ling Jingyang's arrival in the army for a long time, and after Ling Jingyang's arrival, he stepped forward to say hello to Ling Jingyang.

Ling Jingyang looked at Zhang Huangyan, at this time, he was not yet thirty years old, but his eyes were bright, Ling Jingyang seemed to see hope, with him and Li Dingguo, he would definitely be able to restore the Ming people.

"General Zhang, the lonely overseas protector, I admire it."

After saying that, Ling Jingyang was about to salute him, Zhang Huangyan hurriedly picked up Ling Jingyang, and said to him: "Ling Du Governor Wenwu Shuangquan, Kuangfu Building, is the star of the Ming Dynasty, the blessing of China." ”

The two sympathized with each other, he invited Ling Jingyang to be a guest of the Chinese army, and Ling Jingyang happily went, not worried that Zhang Huangyan would kill him at all.

The two came to the Chinese army, divided the host and guest positions, and then began to get down to business.

Ling Jingyang came this time to let Zhang Huangyan serve the imperial court, not to work for the king of Lu, Zhang Huangyan thought that the king of Lu also resisted the Qing Dynasty, and both the king of Lu and the court were anti-Qing.

He was unwilling to give up King Lu and these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians.

"General Zhang, do you know why Daming has not improved over the years?"

Zhang Huangyan shook his head, not understanding what Ling Jingyang meant.

"It's because it's divided, no one obeys anyone, General Zhang wants to revive the Ming Dynasty and expel Jiannu, so he has to set an example, don't want the vassal kings of various places to stand side by side, let alone learn from Zheng Zhilong, in order to satisfy his own selfishness, he insisted on putting the Tang King on the throne."

What he said, there is only one spearhead, that is, the Ming Dynasty can only have one son of heaven, and the decrees of the world must be unified, otherwise when Jiannu destroys the Dashun army, the Ming Dynasty and Jiannu have no ability to divide the river and rule.

"Governor Lingdu, how can you make me believe you, if King Lu gives up his soldiers and horses, will the court rebel, put King Lu under house arrest, and abandon hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians?"

"I Ling fought from Shanhaiguan to Shanxi, Henan, Huguang, and Jiannu all the way to the bloody battle, have you ever heard people say that Ling Jingyang pits his comrades-in-arms?"

Zhang Huangyan shook his head, and Ling Jingyang said again: "The imperial court will only lift a stone to hit itself in the foot, the imperial court will set an example, as long as King Lu gives up his military power, he can continue to be a vassal and enjoy glory and wealth forever, and the imperial court can also integrate the forces of all parties and wait for the opportunity to go north to recover the Central Plains, isn't it the desire of the people of the world?" ”
