After all, war is not a fight. Individual bravery is nothing compared to the power of the collective, especially when the party with collective power also possesses magic spells such as "Fireball" and "Smoke"... This It’s simply cheating!
The "Fireball Technique" and "Smoke Technique" that were exploited completely disrupted the Qing army's green camp veterans who could originally fight in formation, leaving them without the advantage in firepower and the ability to fight collectively. Facing the attack of the Jinyiwei teenagers who were hundreds less than themselves but were able to charge in formation, they would of course collapse at the first touch. The already very chaotic formation was directly overwhelmed and dispersed. The Qing army veterans who had been tortured to collapse by the "Fireball Technique" and "Smoke Technique" completely lost their fighting spirit and just fled towards Huangpu Village crying.
In fact, the fact that these people could persist until they were defeated in a hand-to-hand encounter fully demonstrated their quality. But if you can't defeat it, you can't defeat it. In a hand-to-hand confrontation between infantry using cold weapons, it can't be said that skirmishers can counterattack the military formation, but the probability of it happening is extremely low. If the force value and morale of both sides were not too different, it would be basically impossible to happen.
Although these young Jinyi guards under Zhu Heji have mediocre martial arts, their morale is extremely high... They are not only fighting for the Zhu family and the Chinese orthodoxy, but also avenging their relatives who died. !
Shang Kexi and his banner army and green battalion soldiers have been in Guangdong for twenty years, and they have really committed murder and perverse actions. The young men and strong men who are following Zhu Heji now are almost all enemies of the Shang family.
The current scenes of beating up the Qingyao Green soldiers had all appeared in their dreams.
Now that your dreams have come true, what’s the reason not to work hard?
So when the fog that filled the Huangpu Village Pier completely dissipated, what appeared before people's eyes was the defeat of the Qing army and the great victory of the Ming army!
The defeated Qing army was now unable to stop its decline, and could not rely on the buildings in Huangpu Village to resist. Everyone tried their best to flee westward. Even the ruthless deputy general Zeng Qizhao had no choice but to be "carried" by his own soldiers and ran westward together. There is a dock at the west end of the village, where ten warships belonging to the Hukou Division are docked... This is their only way to survive, so they must run quickly!
But can they still run away?
Of course it's impossible!
Because they soon fell into a vast ocean of enemy wars - there were too many enemies, and most of the residents on Huangzhou Island were also their enemies!
...
"Failed, defeated, defeated... the Qing army was defeated!"
"The Third Prince's soldiers have already rushed into Huangpu Village!"
"The Third Prince is going to win!"
"The momentum is overwhelming, great!"
"Kill, kill all these Qing soldiers!"
"Quickly, set off firecrackers, beat gongs and drums..."
At this time, the people who cheered most because of the defeat of the Qing army and the great victory of the Ming army in Huangpu Village were not Zhu Heji and his men...but the crowd watching on the south bank of the Pearl River!
The cheers, the sound of firecrackers, and the sound of gongs and drums all started up all at once, except for the lion dance.
The Cantonese people in the Qing Dynasty seemed to like to watch the excitement, especially the scenes of Qing soldiers being beaten. Historically, when the British came to Guangzhou, there were many onlookers who were very happy to watch the excitement. What's more, the Ming troops who are now attacking are the Ming troops of Prince Zhu San's family who have been localized in Guangdong.
Although there were some Northerners who "drifted" in Guangdong in this Ming army, most of them were "second-generation drifters" who could speak Cantonese, Chaozhou, and Hakka. Moreover, the total number of these "Guangdiao" was not large. The main force in the past were Chaozhou people who resisted relocation. Recently, a large number of Cantonese people have been recruited in Xiangshan, Shunde and other places. They have almost become the soldiers of the Guangdong people!
Moreover, the performance of this army when it marched north from Macau was indeed like that of soldiers from Guangdong. Not only did it not commit any crimes, it was also able to mobilize the masses along the way... It also demonstrated the power of sugar and medicine, and gave out pictures one by one. A very sweet pancake.
When they finally arrived near Guangzhou City, of course they did not forget to send people to mobilize the surnames from the townships on the south bank of the Pearl River to join the group. But this time there is no need to blow up the century-old wall, just bring people to the south bank of the Pearl River to watch the Qing troops being beaten.
The terrain around Guangzhou Fucheng is so good, it is especially suitable for watching battles!
The water surface of the Pearl River is very wide, and the surrounding terrain is relatively flat. Everyone squeezed onto the embankment on the south bank of the Pearl River and could see the fighting on several key islands in the Pearl River. Moreover, it is blocked by the water surface and is not easily affected by the flames of war, so you can watch the battle with confidence.
So when the battle in Huangpu Village began, the embankment on the south bank of the Pearl River was already filled with onlookers from nearby villages... These were not people who didn't know the truth, but the people who fought in Guangzhou twenty-two years ago. Dear relatives and friends of the people who died in the massacre!
And what they lost in this war was not only their relatives, but also the land they relied on for survival!
Guangzhou is the center of Shang Kexi's rule. Of course Shang Kexi wants to occupy a large amount of land outside Guangzhou and give it to his subordinates. Moreover, he is very fertile, with hundreds of children and thousands of grandchildren. It is impossible for him to work and farm these things. They don’t know how to do business, so they all have to ride on the necks of the people of Guangzhou and become big landlords!
Therefore, in the past few years, Shang Kexi has been constantly snatching land outside Guangzhou City. He doesn't care whether it is owned or not. Let's circle it first. The original owner who knew what he was doing could still be a tenant, but those who didn't were members of the pirates or Prince Zhu's party!
If this trend continues, when the great-grandchildren come out, the area outside Guangzhou will probably be all tenants of his family.
The so-called taking away people's property is like killing their parents!
This Shang Kexi first killed his parents and then took away his property. He was really a bad person!
Now that Shang Kexi, who has done so many bad things, is finally defeated, how could the people of Guangzhou be unhappy?
So Shang Zhixin, who was anxiously fighting outside the Dragon King Temple in Huangpu City on the north bank of the Pearl River, suddenly heard some strange sounds... It seemed to be coming from the other side of the Pearl River.
He quickly turned his telescope and looked at the strange sound. When he saw it, he almost exploded with anger.
It turned out that the embankment on the other side of the Pearl River was already crowded with people at this time, and they were all dressed as villagers near Guangzhou City.
The Heavenly Soldiers of the Qing Dynasty are failing, but they are still watching the fun, and they are still so happy, and... there are still people beating gongs and drums, and some people are setting off firecrackers to celebrate, and some people are waving them. I don’t know where they came from. Big blades, red tassel guns and shotguns!
Does it look like he wants to help Zhu San Taisun fight?
We are all Cantonese, how come you people from Guangzhou are so much worse than people from Xinhui?
When Shang Zhixin was almost angry at the behavior of the people outside Guangzhou, his subordinate Zeng Qizhao, the second most ruthless man in Guangdong who was prolific in murdering people, was no longer angry, but scared!
Because when the defeated soldiers under Zeng Qi Showa fled into Huangpu Village, trying to escape through the village to the West Pier, the village suddenly remembered the crackling gunfire... maybe it was the sound of firecrackers, maybe it was real He's shooting!
In addition, there were more than a few shouts: "Kill Qing Gou, kill Zeng Demon!"
The gunshots and shouts of death did not come from behind Zeng Qizhao, but from his front and left and right, and they were getting louder and more urgent... Could it be that Zhu San Taisun's reaction The thieves have already surrounded the west side of the island, blocking his retreat?
What should I do?
He was currently running along the narrow roads in Huangpu Village with a group of soldiers. He was supposed to be able to pass through the village in a short time, but when he heard shouts and gunshots coming from the front and left and right, he immediately panicked. He didn't dare to cover his head and run west again. Instead, he found a deserted big house, let his own soldiers break open the ajar door, and then got in, wanting to hide inside for a while before talking. .
But who knew that he had just entered the house with his front foot, and someone was shouting outside the house: "Devil Zeng is here, Demon Zeng is in the old house of the Wang family... The heavenly soldiers are coming to catch him!"
Only then did Zeng Qizhao realize that something was wrong. Just as he was about to cheer up and fight out, he heard shouts with a Chaozhou accent coming from outside: "When the Qingyao inside heard this, please come out and surrender, otherwise I will set fire from the sky and burn you to death!"
