Chapter 613: The Battle of Huizhou City (1)

Speaking of this, Edmund paused deliberately, and Ling Jingyang understood that Edmund had something to say, and immediately had an idea in his heart.

He said to the people, "Then let the Dutch break into the city, according to Sir Edmund's advice, and let the Dutch bleed in the city." ”

Xu Sheng's tactics were denied, and he couldn't help but be a little discouraged.

He was not afraid of engaging the enemy in close combat, but he felt that if the Dutch army with rifles and grenades entered the city, even if he held Huizhou City, he would lose most of the soldiers and horses.

Seeing that he was a little discouraged, Ling Jingyang felt that it was necessary to strengthen the confidence of his subordinates, and he told the generals to make more military deployments.

At this time, Shi Tie led the army to gallop in Chaozhou Mansion, and He Zhen's troops also moved closer to Huizhou City, they were not fighting alone, and they would put the Dutch army into the city tomorrow to fight, and they could take a look at the quality of the troops.

If you put it into the city, you can't beat it, and with the advantage of the Dutch's weapons, defending on the city wall is a live target.

Xu Sheng then understood Ling Jingyang's intentions, he puffed out his chest and said with a murderous aura: "Tomorrow the Dutch, come and die as many as you want." ”

After agreeing with the internal opinion, Ling Jingyang ordered the meeting to be dismissed, and before everyone left, he suddenly called Edmund to stop him, and he was going to fight the Dutch tomorrow, and invited Edmund to have supper, and said that there was a pot of fine Shaoxing rice wine in the army, and Edmund drank it together.

Edmund is a drunkard, and when he heard that there was wine, he immediately couldn't move, and sat face to face with Ling Jingyang, waiting for the wine and food.

"If you don't get drunk tonight, you won't go home drunk, and tomorrow you will get drunk and beat the Dutch."

Ling Jingyang asked the guards to bring a pot of rice wine and side dishes, gave Edmund a wine glass, and said, "Is the status of the commander of the Royal Cavalry Regiment even higher than you?" ”

Edmund's face turned red, the commander of the Royal Cavalry Regiment was Prince Henry, the king's younger brother, more than a little nobler than Edmund, in front of Prince Henry, he was like a firefly.

For the first time, Ling Jingyang saw inferiority complex on Edmund's face, and he did not instill the idea of equality in Edmund, but changed his perspective.

"The prince is very noble, but I only recognize you, the Royal Cavalry Regiment came to Huizhou Mansion, and you also went to persuade the Prince to lead the cavalry regiment to attack the Dutch."

Edmund had a look of disconfidence on his face.

"Where can I speak, the prince can't beat the Dutch, I'm a little knight, how dare I make a suggestion to the prince?"

"You are the guest of honor at my place, and Prince Henry is here, also for your sake, and I recognize him as the prince."

Ling Jingyang gave Edmond the supreme honor, Edmund was deeply moved, and Ling Jingyang poured out his heart and lungs.

"Ling Dudu, you Ming people are very strange, some people are very insidious, and some people are very righteous enough, I see insidious and righteous anger in you, you are a fog, unpredictable."

Ling Jingyang's purpose was to have Edmund replace Prince Henry as the commander of the Royal Cavalry Regiment, and Edward was carried up to heaven by him and continued to wear a top hat for Edmond.

"Prince Henry is the commander of the Royal Cavalry Regiment, so what about below him?"

"Below you, as well as the duke, deputy head and others, all have a higher status than me."

Ling Jingyang saw him take the bait, and said mysteriously: "I treat you as a brother, and naturally I want to see you climb the peak and become a more noble person." ”

Edmund seemed to have figured something out, and said in disbelief: "The Dutch are just outside the city, and Prince Henry is still on the way, so you provoke my relationship with Prince Henry, no matter how you look at it, you are a bad person."

"It doesn't matter if I'm a bad guy or not, the Dutch are attacking the city, you stay in the city well, don't be injured by the Dutch's guns, if you die, how can I establish friendly relations with Prince Henry, and the relationship between the Ming and the British Empire will collapse."

Edmond's heart was really moved, it was very hot, and Ling Jingyang asked the guards to bring him two bottles of fine Huadiao wine, so that Edmond could get drunk tonight and sleep until he woke up naturally.

Edmund nodded to Ling Jingyang, agreeing that Ling Jingyang was a good brother, and Ling Jingyang ate some side dishes, drank three cups, and went back to rest with two bottles of Huadiao.

As he was leaving, he suddenly turned around and joked with Ling Jingyang.

"There is a saying, the prince will have a kind of Xiangning, I..."

After finishing speaking, he was unconscious and was carried away by the guards, and after he left, Ling Jingyang did not sleep, but came to the mansion and returned to the room, Bai Lushui had not slept yet.

"Official, tomorrow the red-haired devil will attack the city, I want to go to the front line with the official to kill the devil."

"Tomorrow the devil will be put in to fight, you guard it well in the mansion, the entire Huizhou City is a battlefield. I'll send fifty guards to keep you safe. ”

"I don't, I want to accompany the officials."

Ling Jingyang couldn't resist her, let Bai Lushui in the mansion, he didn't worry, tomorrow he would have to fight with the Dutch devils in the city to the end.

"I asked Xu Sheng to give you a pair of armor, you wear it on your body, where I am, where you are? But if I go out to fight, you must be in the city. ”

Bai Lushui promised him in a whisper, Ling Jingyang hugged his soft body and said, "The battlefield guns are ruthless, you follow me carefully!" ”

"I followed you, just because I was afraid that you would go up and rush around, you are the governor of the five armies, a general, and a generalissimo. Instead of creeps burying their heads and rushing up. ”

Ling Jingyang knew Bai Lushui's kindness.

"Okay, I promise you, hurry up and sleep, tomorrow is the first day of defending the city, and it is also a bloody battle, defending Huizhou City, you will keep the hope of living."

The two hugged each other and fell asleep after talking about love.

In the middle of the night, Ling Jingyang suddenly opened his eyes. Place the white water on the arm on the chest and gently put it aside.

Then he put on his armor and carried his rifles to the door, and the guards and rifle platoons lined up outside the door with rifles.

Ling Jingyang looked at the guards and the rifle platoon seriously, this was his most elite unit, he didn't talk nonsense, and walked out of the door with his rifle.

After he left, Bai Lushui got up from the bed and watched Ling Jingyang disappear into the night.

Huizhou City was extremely quiet at night, and the two troops of the left and right battalions of the Chinese army were assembled in the barracks, fully armed, waiting for Ling Jingyang to issue military orders.

Ling Jingyang came to the barracks, and he wanted to suppress the enemy in the city before the Dutch army was about to attack the city.

The main force of the Su Ri'an Special Bureau retreated to the outside of the city, but the intelligence in the city also attached great importance to it, and Fang Xiaoyan had already reported to him that there were resistance forces in the city.

This group of rebels not only rebelled against Ling Jingyang, but also against the imperial court, and even tried to open the city gates to welcome the Dutch into the city.

Most of them are families who have trade with the Dutch, thinking that the Dutch will not only survive when they open the city gates, but also be able to get a piece of the Dutch pie.

For these traitors, Ling Jingyang only

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

One requirement, that is, to kill, kill this group of lowly people who eat inside and out, so that they can repel the Dutch with the same hatred.

Ling Jingyang ordered Zhao Tu to suppress the enemy in the north of the city, Xu Sheng to suppress the enemy in the south of the city, and the Special Bureau had already dedicated the address of the traitor to Ling Jingyang, and Ling Jingyang told Zhao Tu the address again, Xu Sheng.

After the two got the address, they quickly launched an operation in the city, and dozens of merchants in the city were eliminated overnight one after another.

Some businessmen invited the courtyard, after the gate was smashed open, the courtyard held a weapon to fight, in front of the regular army holding a sword and shield, the courtyard was like a paper paste, easily disintegrated by the Ming army to resist, either killed, or become a prisoner.

Many merchants were tied up by the soldiers of the Ming army, and then dragged to the entrance of the vegetable market in the city, and Ling Jingyang, under the protection of the guards, silently watched the traitors sent at the entrance of the vegetable market.

One, two, three, more and more traitors were thrown to the entrance of the vegetable market, Ling Jingyang's face became more and more gloomy in the night, if this group of people was not cleaned up, in the battle with the Dutch, I don't know how many moths would be made.

At dawn, hundreds of people knelt down in the black pressure at the entrance of the vegetable market, and the people who got up early saw that there were so many people at the entrance of the vegetable market, and hurriedly came to watch, and there were more and more onlookers.

After the sun rose, there were more than 200 people at the entrance of the vegetable market, all of whom hooked up with the Dutch outside the city, some people cried in pain, and some shouted that the Ming Dynasty was about to die, so they quickly found a big tree to hold.

Ling Jingyang did not kill innocents, so the families of these people were not sent to the vegetable market, and Ling Jingyang did not kill this group of people, but sent this group of people outside the city after dawn.

Jackson didn't understand why he did this, wasn't this a gift to the Dutch?

Zhao Tu told him that the governor of Lingdu wanted the people of the whole city to see what happened to him in collusion with the Dutch.

The two of them were on the city wall, watching hundreds of people run frantically towards the Dutch position, shouting their own people as they ran,

Before they could rush to the Dutch position, the Dutch soldiers opened fire and knocked the traitors in front to the ground, and the traitors in the back were suddenly slaughtered, so frightened that they quickly stopped running, stunned for a while, and ran back frantically, trying to return to the city.

But the Dutch didn't give it a chance, and after a burst of gunfire, almost all the traitors outside the city were killed.

In front of the position at this time, in his opinion, these Ming traitors are a joke, he really thinks that if he does business with the empire, he can be a dog for the empire, and the Dutch have Zheng Zhilong, the biggest partner, and these businessmen in Huizhou City are really not interested.

Allowing this group of people to come to the barracks would only disrupt his military deployment and waste precious time to pacify them, so he personally ordered them to be shot.

The Ming army and the people in the city saw this group of thieves killed, and their hearts were very happy, but they were also very sad, surrendered to the Dutch, and also died by the Dutch.

The atmosphere of the military and civilians in Huizhou City became very depressing, and some soldiers hoped that the Dutch army would launch an attack and let the Dutch taste the power.

The Dutch army outside the city tried their knives and was eager to pour the fire of desire into the city, and the commander of the 2nd Infantry Regiment, Tolten, and the commander of the 3rd Infantry Regiment, Robben, came to meet with Kuichi and asked for an immediate siege.

The two subordinates had a strong desire to win, and the two did not suppress the desire of the two, so that the two of them attacked the city in the south and the north, and met in the center of the city after entering the city.

The two regiment commanders were full of confidence, first bombarded the city wall with cannons, bombarded the city gate if the city wall could not be opened, and then let the soldiers attack it, suppressed the Ming army on the city wall with rifles, blew up the city gate with grenades, and razed Huizhou City to the ground in the city, leaving no one alive.
