Chapter Ninety-Three: Someone from the Imperial Court

"Great victory! Great victory! Great victory! ”

"Fengtian begged for the capture of the general Su Yan Yu Xianyou to break the Qing army! Quanzhou is stable! ”

"The army is directed at Xinghua Mansion, the defenders of Xinghua Mansion surrender, and Xinghua is recovered!"

……

Two successive good news were transmitted back to Quanzhou and Xiamen from the north, leading the people of the two places to rejoice.

No one dared to imagine that the righteous army won more with less with the inferior army, broke the Qing army, and also took the Xinghua Mansion, and at the same time harvested the puppet Fujian and Zhejiang Governor Chen Jin, Pingnan General Gushan Ezhen Jin Li two heads, when the good news was transmitted back to the rear, the people did not believe it at first, but after a large number of prisoners were sent back to Quanzhou Mansion, the people were ecstatic, cheering and celebrating the victory of the righteous army.

The good news not only came from the north, a few days later, the news of the pacification of Zhangzhou in the south also came, the national surname Zhu Chenggong led a sneak attack on Zhangzhou Mansion, Zhangzhou Mansion garrisoned Kaicheng and surrendered, Li Yingwai regained the capital city, and executed Zhangzhou General Wang Bangjun in public, three of the four major cities along the coast of Fujian have since fallen into the hands of the anti-Qing forces.

November 26, Xinghua Province.

Su Yan, dressed in armor, walked in the palace, and in front of him, there was Zhu Guopan, the prefect of Xinghua Mansion, and Zuo Xieman Jinzhong, who knelt on the ground.

As for Zhang Yingmeng, who had fled to Xinghua Mansion before, and his 3,000 remnants of the army, after staying in Xinghua Mansion for a few hours, they were afraid that the rebels would chase after them again, so they fled all the way north and fled back to Fuzhou Mansion.

The cavalry sent out by Su Yan in advance originally wanted to ambush him on the road, but who would have thought that this Ying Meng would run too fast, and the cavalry couldn't even catch up with him, so they could only regretfully return to the army.

Speaking of which, in the night attack that occurred in Cangxi, only more than 3,000 of the 14,000 Qing troops escaped, more than 6,000 were captured, nearly 4,000 were either killed by friendly troops or enemy troops in the battle, and more than 1,000 people took advantage of the chaos to flee to the nearby mountains and forests.

On the side of the rebels, from the beginning of the battle that broke out on the morning of the 24th, from beginning to end only less than 500 people were killed, such a huge disparity in casualties was a little surprising even to Su Yan himself, they also captured all the artillery brought by Jin Li, of which except for one Franc cannon and three tiger squat guns were destroyed in the battle, the rest of the 104 artillery pieces were incorporated into the Shenji battalion.

After taking Xinghua Mansion, Su Yan did not remove Zhu Guopan from his position for the time being, but sent people to visit around the city, and learned that Zhu Guopan's reputation among the people was not bad, so he restored his position and let him continue to serve as the prefect of Xinghua Mansion.

As for Man Jinzhong, this guy ordered the slaughter of the city when he captured Haikou City in Fuqing County, causing the tragic "Dinghai Tragedy", Su Yan naturally couldn't bear to serve such wicked people under his command, he immediately ordered Man Jinzhong to be arrested, escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market to kneel in the direction of Haikou City, and beheaded on the street to comfort the souls of the people of Haikou in the sky.

After ordering Man Jinzhong to be beheaded, Su Yan began to think about the next direction of development, Xinghua Mansion only governed Putian County and Xianyou County, and Putian County was the government of Xinghua Prefecture, so only Xianyou County was still in the hands of the Qing army, he had already sent Chen Shenggui to lead the Zhongwu Battalion to recover Xianyou County, and after Xianyou took it, he would control the entire territory of Quanzhou Mansion and Xinghua Mansion. …

At present, the mobile forces of the Qing court in Fujian Province were annihilated by him in the Battle of Cangxi, and the 3,000 remnants of the army who fled back were not worried, so Su Yan was not ready to stop at Xinghua Mansion, he wanted to wait for the 4,000 original Quanzhou defenders who had completed the training of Quanzhou Mansion to come and converge, and then continue to go north to attack Fuzhou Mansion.

Oh yes, before that, Su Yan wants to check the rewards for completing the task.

[Mission Complete: Defeat the Jin Lijun in a single battle.]

Mission Rewards: Military Technology: Phalanx, Industrial Technology: Basic Steam Pump, Line Infantry x2, 12-pounder Infantry Gun x2, Cossack Cavalry x3, Cossack Infantry x1, Hand Mortar Artillery Company x2]

[Host unlocks Industrial Technology: Basic Steam Pump, rewards the construction of the Wrought Iron Factory]

"Ah!!!h

"It's a waste of a random unlock opportunity, how can it be a phalanx!!"

Su Yan almost looked up to the sky and roared, he looked at the phalanx with some annoyance, he wanted to wait until he settled down and then organize the line infantry to train the hollow phalanx, and manually unlock the phalanx technology, but he didn't expect that the system would unlock such a broken technology by chance.

Although he was very dissatisfied with this reward, Su Yan could only pinch his nose and admit it, but there were still some good things in these rewards, such as the basic steam pump, the famous Cossack cavalry, and the mortar artillery company equipped with new weapons.

The Mastar Artillery Company is equipped with a weapon similar to a grenade launcher called a hand mortar gun, with a stubby bronze barrel mounted on a wooden butt for shoulder firing, but it is less stable and the quality of the grenades fired is not high, and despite its many shortcomings, it can still be used to eliminate enemies hiding behind cover and uproot strongholds.

This kind of weapon has only been equipped in the Russian and Ottoman armies, and it can only be said that it is worthy of the old man, and even this dangerous individual weapon with the possibility of self-detonation can be equipped in the army.

As usual, Su Yan did not summon these rewarded teams immediately, but continued to stay in the system space and summon them later, and the wrought iron factory that was rewarded, because there were no unlimited resources in it, Su Yan was ready to wait for Fuzhou to be conquered, and then return to Anxi, and place the wrought iron factory next to the Panyang Iron Mine in Anxi, which could save the cost of transporting materials.

……

On November 27, 4,000 soldiers who went north from Quanzhou were reequipped with captured weapons and equipment, and were incorporated into Su Yan's army

Dear, this chapter is not finished, there is still the next page oh ^0^ and Xianyou County, and then led the army to the Northern Expedition.

On the eve of the Northern Expedition, Feng Chengshi, the envoy of the Zheng clan, came to Su Yan's army with a white-faced bearded man and announced good news to Su Yan.

"General Su, this is Gonggong Chen who is traveling from Wuzhou, and he carries the will of the imperial court."

As soon as they met, Feng Chengshi introduced the identity of the man beside him to Su Yan.

Su Yan was slightly stunned after hearing this, and subconsciously looked at the man in front of him, his gaze especially stayed on the position of the other party's lower body for a moment, and then bowed and said, "Meet Gonggong Chen." ”

The eunuch is such a sensitive person, he naturally felt Su Yan's gaze just now, although he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, he still pinched his throat and said: "Su Yan, our family is ordered by the imperial court, why don't you bathe and change your clothes and kneel down to accept the order?" ”

His voice fell, seeing Su Yan standing in place without moving, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, or Feng Chengshi saw this and hurriedly pulled Su Yan aside, whispered a few words, Su Yan woke up like a dream, and went to bathe and change clothes in a hurry, and waited for more than half an hour before changing clothes and coming to Gonggong Chen.

At this time, Gonggong Chen was already waiting a little impatiently, although Su Yan had just encountered this kind of thing for the first time, so he seemed a little in a hurry, but it didn't mean that he was blind, and his EQ was still online, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Let Gonggong Chen wait for a long time, and after a while, the kid will order someone to prepare good wine and food, so that he can entertain Gonggong Chen." ”

Hearing him say this, Gonggong Chen's face finally improved a lot and nodded.

Dear, this chapter is over, happy reading! ^0^
