Chapter 583: Four-Party Talks (1)

Zheng Chenggong commanded troops in Jiangbei to fight with the Fusang people, although the Fusang people had many advanced weapons, but they lost supplies, and they were all spared, for fear that the weapons and ammunition would be driven into the sea by the Ming army after they were consumed.

Zheng Chenggong commanded the troops to engage in large-scale battles on the border between Yanzhou and Jinan Prefecture, and successfully annihilated an infantry brigade under the Third Division, and the high-ranking generals of the Third Division were extremely angry and asked the division commander to use rifles and other weapons to defeat the Ming army.

The commander of the 3rd Division once again refused the request of his subordinates, and he vaguely felt that the Ming army in Jiangnan might have a great internal strife, and asked his subordinates not to engage the Ming army, hold their respective positions and cities, and prevent the Ming army from launching further surprise attacks.

Sure enough, as he expected, Zheng Chenggong after this victory, Congshan Pass was raided and lost by the Fujian Ming army, His Majesty retreated in the direction of Huguang, Zheng Chenggong was anxious and angry, in Jiangbei to fight against the good situation of Fusang and Jiannu, was made a mess by his father, he couldn't wait to lead the army back to Nanzhili, but at this time, the Qing army in Baoding Mansion finally couldn't help but be suppressed by the Fusang army, and under the leadership of Dolgon, launched a surprise attack on Henan and other places.

Hundreds of thousands of green battalion soldiers of the Qing army rushed to Henan like locusts, and captured a large number of cities in Henan in a short period of time, and the Qing army finally did not have to nest in the small area of Baoding Prefecture, and the Qing army's sphere of influence expanded to Henan.

Regarding the sudden killing of the Qing army to Henan, the Fusang people did not say anything, and the first and second divisions of the first division in Beizhili were still forming a puppet army for drills, as if they were preparing for a bigger battle.

However, in the Dashun Army of Shaanxi and Shanxi, the Great Western Army was shocked, and the two armies mobilized their main forces to attack the junction of Henan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi.

The Qing army did not dare to fight with the Dashun army and the Daxi army, so they had to withdraw the troops on the border line, and the Dashun army and the Dashun army did not continue to attack, and the three parties were in a stalemate in Jiangbei, and no one dared to take the lead in launching an attack, and they were all wary of each other.

After the great changes in the whole Jiangbei in a short period of time, it fell into calm again, and only Zheng Chenggong led the troops of Shandong to withdraw to the Ningguo Mansion in the south of Zhili, and joined the troops and horses of Gao Ding, Zhang Shun and Wangbao.

At this time, there were several Jingyang soldiers and horses in Ningguofu, and the momentum was huge for a while, and Zheng Zhilong, who had already captured Congshan Pass, did not dare to attack Ningguofu.

Although Zheng Zhilong did not go further north, he successfully cut off the connection between Ling Jingyang and the Jiangbei team, and vigorously attacked Huguang and other places, wanting to annihilate the Hongguang court in one fell swoop.

Huguangjiang Tianyi led his troops to counterattack, Zheng Zhilong's several attacks were ineffective, and the Dutch did not send troops to help Zheng Zhilong attack, but searched Zheng Zhilong's territory for the people's fat and ointment, especially grain and grass, and the Dutch piled up warehouses.

The war in Huguang also stabilized for the time being, and only in South China was it still a pot of porridge, first of all, Zheng Zhilong's troops who attacked Ganzhou Prefecture and a Dutch infantry regiment entered Ganzhou Prefecture.

Zhou Yuan thought that Zheng Zhilong was here to support him, and he led the army of the people in Ganzhou City with great interest to welcome the arrival of Zheng Zhilong's troops ten miles outside the city.

But what he was waiting for was not Yu Zheng Zhilong's troops, but the murderous Dutch, the Dutch soldiers carried rifles and grenades, and when they saw the Ming soldiers and civilians outside the city, they would shoot without saying a word.

A storm of guns and ammunition poured into the ranks of the Ming army, and the soldiers and civilians of Ganzhou City were like live targets in front of the Dutch, and the blood of the killed was like a river, and the crowd suddenly became a pot of porridge.

Zhou Yuan was sudden

As it comes, the change is frightening.

Wang Mu asked him, isn't Zheng Zhilong an ally?

Zhou Yuan couldn't answer him, but he still led the forced retreat to Ganzhou City, closed the city gate and decided to defend Ganzhou City.

Only then did he remember why Li Jiantai hurriedly left Ganzhou City after the success of the mutiny, saying that he was to welcome His Majesty Chongzhen, perhaps Li Jiantai and others had already known that Zheng Zhilong and these red-haired devils did not really support His Majesty to ascend to the throne.

The more Zhou Yuan thought about it, the more angry he became, he climbed the city wall and looked out, and the people in the city who had not had time to enter the city were killed by the Dutch.

Zhou Yuan almost gritted his teeth, and a few of his subordinates knew the weapons used by the Dutch, which were very powerful, and Zhou Yuan whispered: "My lord, the red-haired devil's fighting weapon is a bit powerful." ”

The subordinates showed timidity, and Zhou Yuan also saw a Ming army appear behind the Dutch, this army was the army under Zheng Zhilong, following the Dutch to fight the autumn wind.

Seeing the Dutch wreaking havoc outside the city of Ganzhou, it is difficult to say anything, who made the Dutch allies?

When the Dutch saw the arrival of Zheng Zhilong's troops, they immediately stopped killing and scattered the two armies and surrounded the city of Ganzhou.

There is enough food and grass in Ganzhou City, Zhou Yuan can hold on for a long time, and she is also determined to hold Zheng Zhilong's troops outside Ganzhou City to persuade the city to surrender, hoping that Zhou Yuan will open the city gate and welcome the Longwu Imperial Court army to enter the city and withdraw from the hospital

Because he didn't open the city gate, the Dutch outside the city immediately attacked, dozens of artillery pieces, more than 1,000 rifle grenades to Ganzhou City.

The city of Ganzhou was thick and high, and the artillery of the Dutch did not play a role for a while, but the lethality of the rifle was very great, and the soldiers in the city did not dare to raise their heads.

Most of the soldiers in the city hastily formed the village brave and young, completely unable to withstand the fierce attack of the Dutch, and it only took half a day for the city gate to be blasted open.

Then the Dutch and Zheng Zhilong's Ming army entered the city, because Zheng Zhilong's troops were there, and the Dutch were not embarrassed to launch a massacre.

The hundreds of soldiers in Zhou Yuan's mansion who were used to rebel were the troops that Zhou Yuan relied on the most, and many of them were martial arts masters and swordsmen.

These people are also heroic, in the face of the attack of the Dutch, the courage to rush up to meet the battle, but the Dutch with rifles into a hornet's nest, the surviving martial arts masters were either beaten stupid, or doubted the martial arts they had learned all their lives, and retreated to the rivers and lakes with hatred.

The resistance in the city ended in half a day, Zhou Yuan's troops were almost lost, he and Wang Mu and others became prisoners, and Ling Jingyang's Governor's Mansion was occupied by the Dutch before it was hot.

When the Dutch came to the Governor's Palace, they saw a small fortress in the palace and wondered who built it.

The craftsmanship is not inferior to the fortress built by the first-class master in the Netherlands, the Dutch wanted to find the person who built the fortress and offered a heavy reward, but no one came, and later learned that Jin Dashou and others evacuated Ganzhou City.

After the Dutch and Zheng Zhilong's soldiers and horses occupied Ganzhou City, the whole of Jiangxi fell into the hands of Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhilong's power reached the Chaozhou Mansion in Guangdong in the south, the whole territory of Fujian in winter, the whole territory of Jiangxi in the west, and the south of Zhili in the north and a part of Zhejiang, becoming the strongest force in the southeast region.

When Zheng Zhilong was ravaging South China, Ling Jingyang was still racking his brains in Huizhou City, how to defeat the French and the English?

Edmund had nothing to do all day, either inviting Ling Jingyang to hunt outside the city, or drinking in the city, he was particularly fond of Ming food, all kinds of pastries braised pork made him linger, and Ming people's wine also made him drunk.

Ling Jingyang saw that he couldn't support the wall in the mud, so he called Jackson, and wanted to discuss with Jackson whether to swallow up the troops brought by Edmund, just when the two were about to start, Fang Xiaoyan's subordinates brought Ling Jingyang the latest information about Ganzhou City, and with the continuous flow of information to Huizhou City, Ling Jingyang actually saw that Zhou Yuan had soldiers in the mansion, and was very surprised, until the last intelligence showed that Zhou Yuan launched a mutiny in the city, and the personnel of the Governor's Mansion threatened Shi Tie and others to give up Ganzhou City, and Shi Tie was forced to give up Ganzhou City. Led the residents of Ganzhou to retreat to Huizhou Mansion.

Ling Jingyang's heart was like someone stuffed a grenade, which blew him up to death, not only that, but after he received the news, the scouts who wandered in the eastern area of Huizhou Mansion also sent him information that a red-haired devil army was killed from Tingzhou Mansion in Fujian, judging from the equipment and dress, it was not an Englishman, nor a Frenchman, nor a Spaniard, but a Dutch entrenched on the island of Taiwan.

Ling Jingyang almost collapsed, he never imagined that the Dutch would attack at this time, in 1647 in the land of China, there were Fusang people in Jiangbei, there were Qing troops, and there were Dutch, Spanish, French, and British people in Jiangnan.

The entire land of China is filled with a group of robbers, and this group of robbers has done all kinds of evil in the land of China, and the lives of the land of China have been devastated.

Ling Jingyang suddenly looked at Jackson, Jackson was furious by him, and said to him: "Ling Dudu, I am your subordinate, I am your rear battalion general, I am not a Dutchman." ”

Maybe it was Jackson's complete surrender, Ling Jingyang put away his killing intent, he summoned He Zhen, Zhao Tu, and Xu Sheng in the city, and let his subordinates go to Shaozhou Mansion, Nanxiong Mansion reported to Du Yinxi and Jin Sheng, the Dutch had entered Chaozhou Mansion.

If I wanted to provoke the British, the French, and Spain to fight infighting, I am afraid that it would have to be carried out in advance and weaken the military strength of these three countries as much as possible, so that we could have the opportunity to concentrate our forces and fight a decisive battle with the Dutch.

Ling Jingyang remembered the troops in Jiangbei and Guizhou, and immediately asked his subordinates to rush to Guizhou and Jiangbei to maintain contact with the troops, as for Emperor Hongguang, he led hundreds of civil and military officials to survive in Huguang, Ling Jingyang was unable to give support, so he asked He Zhen to lead his troops to the north of Huizhou Mansion to meet the team from Ganzhou to ensure that this new force remained intact.

After Du Yinxi and Jin Sheng also knew about the battle situation in Nanzhili, and received information from Ling Jingyang, at this time, a day and a night had passed, and Zheng Zhilong's troops continued to attack the city.

After receiving information from all sides, they informed Lieutenant General Anderson and Governor Paul of this information almost simultaneously, and the French and Spaniards managed to compress the British power to the extreme, and the Dutch came from Fujian to kill.

In the face of the fierce momentum of the Dutch, Spain and France were a little afraid, the Dutch navy in this era was too strong, if they were blockaded in the port, Spain and France would be completely isolated, and the two armies would become alone.

Anderson and Paul proposed to stop the infighting, and in turn persuade Du Yinxi and Jin Shengwan to join forces with the Ming army of Huizhou to resist the attack of the Dutch. The change in attitude between the two countries was due to the fact that the coastal provinces of Huizhou and Guangzhou, which were geographically very important, were occupied by the Dutch and could cut off the sea lanes.

In the face of changes in the state of Europa, Plug Yinxi and Jin Sheng also made changes in a timely manner.

At the suggestion of Du Yinxi, the four forces of the Ming Dynasty, France, Spain, and the British held four-party talks in Penghui, the capital of Shaozhou.
