Bang!

"Damn the sea reverse, return me to the sailor!"

Meizhou Bay, the camp of the Qing army.

Chen Jin, who learned the bad news that the sailor was completely annihilated by Zheng Jun, was furious and slammed his fist on the desk, so shocked that the attendants in the tent hurriedly knelt on the ground and did not dare to say anything.

At this moment, Zhang Yingmeng heard a voice walking in from outside the tent, He looked at Chen Jin, who was flushed with anger, realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Governor, what happened?" ”

"See for yourself."

Chen Jin threw the documents on the desk in front of Zhang Yingmeng, who didn't care, bent down and picked up the papers, After some inspection, his face also changed, and he lost his voice: "This sea against the water division is so fierce, it is forty-three warships, and the whole army was wiped out in less than half a day." ”

"Damn it!"

Desk HP-1

Chen Jin smashed the table again, gritted his teeth and said: "After this governor has pacified this Su rebellion, he will definitely attack Xiamen Island and destroy this gang of sea rebellions." ”

Compared with Chen Jin's anger, Zhang Yingmeng seemed a little worried, he took a few steps forward, put the paperwork on the table, and said: "Your Excellency, now that the Navy Division has been wiped out, the warships of the sea rebellion can almost be said to be unimpeded in the waters of Fujian. ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Jin looked at him, he knew that this subordinate of his would not say such things for no reason.

"The left and right associations of Xinghua Mansion have been transferred, and there are no troops around Xinghua Mansion to defend, if the Zheng army lands at this time, then our army's retreat will be cut off, and the situation is critical!" The more Zhang Yingmeng spoke, the more worried he felt: "Not only Xinghua Mansion, but also Fuzhou Mansion, there are less than 5,000 troops around Fuzhou Mansion, if the Zheng army invades in a big way, the provincial capital will fall......"

"That's enough."

Chen Jin's temples burst out, and Zhang Yingmeng was cut off with a loud voice, preventing him from continuing to worry about the sky, Chen Jin rubbed the position of his temples, and said: "That is, the deputy general of the Left Association of Xinghua Mansion, Man Jinzhong, will lead the headquarters back to Xinghua Mansion." ”

"Huh." Zhang Yingmeng hurriedly clenched his fists to receive his life, and then slowly retreated.

After Zhang Yingmeng retreated, the anger in Chen Jin's heart still did not vent out, he looked at the attendant kneeling on the dismount, grabbed an inkstone on the desk and smashed it on the head of the attendant, while shouting and scolding: "Damn dog minion, don't get out of here yet!" ”

Li Jinzhong, the attendant who was hit by the inkstone, screamed miserably, covered his smashed head, ignored the continuous bleeding from above, and ran out of the big tent with a crawl, and collided head-on with another attendant, Li Zhong.

Li Zhong looked at the other party's miserable situation, obviously taken aback, Before he could speak, Li Jinzhong grabbed his hand and pulled it aside, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "Don't go in yet, the master is still angry, hiss-"

Saying that, he couldn't help but gasp, Li Zhong hurriedly took his hand away, looked at the shocking wound on his head, swallowed his saliva, and said: "This master is too ruthless, no, you have to bandage the wound quickly, otherwise your little life will be lost." ”

After speaking, Li Zhong hurriedly helped Li Jinzhong to the side to bandage his wounds.

That night, Chen Jin's roar sounded again in the main tent of the Qing army, accompanied by the screams of the attendants, and the guards outside the tent were a little stunned when they heard it, and they glanced at each other, and they saw a strong sympathy in the eyes of the other party.

At this moment, an attendant walked out of the tent in an embarrassed manner, and the attendant was Li Zhong during the day, who dragged his limping legs and returned to his tent under the gaze of two guards.

What the two guards didn't see was a trace of hatred that quickly dissipated in Li Zhong's eyes.

……

On the morning of the next day, after breakfast, the Qing army, under the leadership of the Pingnan general Jin Li, crossed the Cangxi in an orderly manner and lined up on the south bank of the Cangxi River.

As soon as the Qing army crossed the stream, the rebels discovered the movement in the north, and the camp immediately sounded gongs, and a large number of soldiers ran to their respective combat posts with weapons, vigilantly looking at the enemy who was still crossing the river in the distance.

"Reload your ammunition and get ready for battle!"

Su Ci, who also changed into cloth armor, pressed his right hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, and shouted orders to the musketeers standing behind the trench and chariot respectively.

At this moment, Su Yan walked to Su Ci's side, he frowned slightly, looked at the Qing army in the distance, his eyes stayed on the red battle flag for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "It seems that it is the Han army with the red flag of Jin Li who launched the attack this time." ”

"The Han army is inlaid with red flags?" Su Ci licked his back molars with his tongue and said, "This is the first time that the last general has fought with the Eight Banners Army of the Qing court, and I am really looking forward to it." ”

"Be careful." Su Yan said: "The Han army flag is displayed with sharp firearms, so that the soldiers are ready to meet the artillery bombardment of the Qing army." ”

"Yes."

Su Ci clenched his fists and said, and then passed on Su Yan's order, and the soldiers in the battalion looked for cover nearby.

On the other side, after the formation on the south bank of Cangxi was completed, the Qing army was led by Jin Li to the camp of the righteous army to kill, the Han army led by Jin Li set the red flag with him to fight in the north and south, and the results were quite fruitful, and many firearms including the Hongyi cannon were captured from the Ming army, so whether it was firepower or hand-to-hand combat ability, it was far stronger than the Fujian green battalion.

This is where Jin Li's arrogance lies.

At three o'clock on the morning of the 24th, the Qing army lined up a thousand meters away from the camp of the rebels.

Jin Li did not directly order the whole army to attack, but the general's 20 Hongyi cannons, 33 Furang cannons and 58 tiger squat cannons lined up in front of the military formation, concentrating their firepower on the camp of the rebels.

For a time, the sound of artillery shook the sky, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, and a large number of artillery shells flew to the camp of the rebel army. ”

The shells fell straight into the camp and smashed into the chariots and wooden fences that were blocking the Qing army's attack, and although the skins of both were nailed and covered with thick wet cotton quilts by the soldiers, they still could not counteract the impact of the shells.

A cannonball from a Hongyi cannon roared and smashed into a chariot, piercing through the outermost thick quilt and skin, piercing the body of the chariot and smashing the rebel soldiers hiding behind the chariot into pulp.

There was also a cannonball that smashed through the wooden plank in front of the gun emplacement, and smashed heavily on the thick earth slope in front of the gun emplacement, the huge shock was so great that the soldiers hiding behind were frightened, and the shell hit the thick soil slope and then bounced upwards along the inertia, and flew dozens of meters in mid-air before landing again and smashing a tent in the camp.

The artillery bombardment of the Qing army lasted for more than half an hour, and when the shelling was finally over, the fortifications of the rebel camp had many holes, several chariots were disintegrated, several wooden fences were also damaged, and the soldiers hiding behind were killed.
