Chapter 218 Mayan was shocked again!
The emperor’s grace is so great!
Fu Honglie was so moved that he cried!
Although he is known as Fu Fool, he still knows how dangerous his profession is! He even knew that he was almost silenced by Tu Hai when he was in Shaozhou...but he was still willing to bet that the current Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was a wise and wise man.
As long as Emperor Kangxi is still a wise and wise master, then he will definitely know how dangerous it is for Prince Zhu San and Grandson Zhu San to hold high the banner of original Confucianism, and be assisted by a large number of Han talents and intellectuals, and sit in the prosperous place of Guangfu?
In order to destroy such an enemy, the Qing Dynasty must use all its strength!
As long as the emperor can understand this, even if he, Fu Honglie, is shattered to pieces, he can still smile.
But now the emperor not only fully understood the danger of Zhu San and his son, but also reinstated Officer Fu Honglie to his post, and even promoted him to a higher level. How could this not move Fool Fu?
And just when Fu Fool was moved to tears by Emperor Kangxi's kindness, the voice of Gabra, the minister in charge of the bodyguard, suddenly came from outside the South Study Room: "Your Majesty, Fujian Geng Jingzhong is reporting urgently..."
What happened to Fujian?
Emperor Kangxi frowned and quickly ordered his father-in-law, Gabula, to enter the South Study Room.
Gabra held a wooden box in his hand, walked quickly to Emperor Kangxi's desk, respectfully placed the wooden box in front of Kangxi, then knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, this is Geng Jingzhong's title. I...Shang Zhixin has arrived in Fuzhou!"
"What?" Emperor Kangxi was stunned and said to himself: "How come Shang Zhixin, who already has a posthumous title, ran to Fuzhou? Isn't he surrounded in Xinhui City?"
Thinking of this, he quickly asked: "Where is Xinhui? How is the situation of Xinhui?"
What Geng Jingzhong sent was not a secret copy, but the title book, which was a public memorial. According to the rules, Gabra, the minister in charge of the bodyguard, could read the question book after receiving it, and he did read it.
"Your Majesty, the new society has been broken up by the traitors..." Gabra said hurriedly, "It was broken up by the traitors as early as October 20th! Although Shang Zhixin, Shang Kele, Li Tianzhi and others After fighting to the death, they still could not withstand the day and night onslaught of tens of thousands of rebels. In the end, under the protection of Huang Zhisheng, who was registered with Ding You, he risked his life to escape from the Yamen Waterway on a big bird boat, and then drifted on the sea for more than ten days before arriving in Fuzhou. .”
"October 20th..." When Emperor Kangxi heard this date, he was immediately shocked!
Because these days, he received secret military reports from Tuhai that were sent to Beijing on a six-hundred-mile rush every day.
Since it was a secret war, Tuhai did not mince words about Xinhui's situation, and in all the secret military reports sent to Kangxi, Tuhai reported the news that Xinhui was still resisting!
The distance between Beijing and Qingyuan is about 3,780 miles. If you travel 600 miles a day on a 600-mile express, you can reach Beijing in up to seven days.
Today is November 15th, and the secret military report received by Kangxi was from November 8th... In other words, Tuhai, Sun Sike and others can contain a large number of people in Xinhui. On the eighteenth day after the nails of the Ming army were pulled out by Zhu San Taisun, he still knew nothing!
Moreover, Tuhai proudly told Kangxi in a secret military report that because Zhu Heji's main force was restrained by Xinhui City, he could not go north to Sanshui in time. Therefore, Sun Sike, Shi Lang, Sun Yanling and other troops have now completed the siege of Sanshui, and have also set up a decisive battle on the water near Qingqi Village... It can be said that the net is ready.
At the same time, Sun Yanling also personally led 5,000 troops to form the main force of the Qing army and advance along the Liuxi River to the north of Guangzhou City, assuming a posture of launching an attack from the north of Guangzhou City.
According to the battle plan reported by Tu Hai, the Qing army in Guangdong prepared two plans. One was to encircle the point near Sanshui City for reinforcements and focus on attacking the Ming navy... After defeating the Ming navy, Continue the siege of Sanshui until it is captured.
The second is to use partial divisions to lure the main force of the Ming army to Guangzhou, and then use the main force to break through Sanshui.
As long as Sanshui is captured, the initiative on the Guangfu battlefield will be seized by the Qing army!
This plan originally seemed quite reliable, but now... Kangxi found that the army he sent to Guangdong was in danger, but he didn't know it yet!
...
Guangzhou Prefecture, Qingyuan County, Ningnan Jingkou General's camp.
Tuhai actually already knew that he was in big trouble!
As early as November 11, the same day Wu Sangui went into a rage in Wuhua Mountain, arrested Zhu Guozhi and other Yunnan officials loyal to the Qing Dynasty, and announced that he would accept the "Chongzhen Edict" and join the anti-Qing and Fuming camp, Tu Hai knew that The situation in Guangdong is wrong.
Because he received an urgent notice from Zu Zeqing two days ago - Zu Zeqing reported in the notice that Gaoming County was being attacked by "tens of thousands of Ming troops" coming from overland!
At the same time, Zu Zeqing also reported in his post that he would personally lead an army south to support Gao Ming. He also asked Tu Haima to order Sun Sike and Shi Lang to support him.
Tu Hai was stunned when he saw this notice - shouldn't such an important and urgent notice be sent to Qingyuan as quickly as possible? Why did it take two days to arrive? Isn't this a delay?
What is this Zu Zeqing doing?
On November 12, Tuhai received another notification from Sun Sike and Shi Lang, informing them that the Ming army was heading towards Sanshui via the Xijiang waterway... There were hundreds of troops transporting ships. The Xijiang waterway is paved for dozens of miles.
Because Tu Hai and others previously judged that Zhu Heji could not give up his strong water advantage and march by land, so at this time, they believed that those who came through the Xijiang waterway were Zhu Heji's actual troops, and those who attacked by land were just imaginary troops.
Therefore, Tu Hai did not immediately decide to send reinforcements, and instead sent someone to contact Zu Zeqing to find out the situation.
But starting from November 12th, Zu Zeqing has "lost contact"!
On the following thirteenth and fourteenth days, and until today, Tuhai did not receive any news from Zu Zeqing.
The small group of troops Shi Lang sent to the south bank of Xijiang River for reconnaissance on the 13th never returned!
At the same time, the Ming fleet, which was heading north along the Xijiang River, stopped moving after advancing to Jinlidu, which was twenty or thirty miles away from the confluence of the three rivers.
It's hard to damage Tu Hai... What happened? Where did Zu Zeqing go? Why did the rebel navy stand still?
And now, in the afternoon of November 15th, Tu Hai, who was looking at Mu Tu in a daze, suddenly heard the sound of erratic footsteps, and then the rapid breathing of his master Zhou Peigong.
Tu Hai quickly turned around and saw Zhou Peigong breathing heavily, "Zhongtang! Something happened in Deqing Prefecture!"
"Deqing?" Tu Hai was stunned, "Isn't that the capital of Luoding Prefecture?"
"Yes!" Zhou Peigong hurriedly handed over a notice with both hands, "Something big happened! Yesterday morning, Zu Zeqing's army of more than ten thousand suddenly appeared on the south bank of the Deqingzhou section of the Xijiang River, and they searched for ships everywhere to build pontoons. ....."
"What? What? Zu Zeqing arrived in Deqing Prefecture? He, he..." Tu Hai was so surprised that he couldn't say anything.
Zhou Peigong continued what he said: "He was driven all the way to Deqing Prefecture by Zhu Heji's tens of thousands of troops!"
"What? Zhu Heji's army has arrived in Deqing Prefecture? Has it... crossed the Xijiang River?" Tu Hai asked quickly.
"We've passed!" Zhou Peigong said, "I crossed the Xijiang River with Zu Zeqing's army... and crossed the river on the pontoon bridge built by Zu Zeqing's troops."
"Damn it!" Tu Hai cursed, "Where is Zu Zeqing? Did he enter Deqing Prefecture City?"
"No!" Zhou Peigong shook his head, "The notice said that after Zu Zeqing's troops crossed the river, they continued to go west and refused to enter Deqing Prefecture City!"
"What?" Tu Hai was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
If Zu Zeqing's army is not as good as Deqing Prefecture, then the possibility of defending Deqing Prefecture is almost impossible with only the hundreds of green battalions and more than a thousand civilians and regiments in Deqing Prefecture city!
Once Deqingzhou City was lost, it became very difficult for Tu Hai's army to communicate with Guangxi!
Moreover, after crossing the river and capturing Deqing Prefecture, the rebel army can advance eastward along the north bank of the Xijiang River... and can even advance all the way to Qingqi Village where Shi Lang's navy is located!
At that time, Shi Lang will be attacked by both land and water armies of the rebels. Qingqi Village will be lost. Once Qingqi Village is lost, not only will the siege of Sanshui be unable to be maintained, but even the main force of the Qing army besieging Sanshui will be in great crisis. !
