"Your Majesty, we must go to Hunan!" Tuhai said to Fuquan, "The Emperor and Wu Ni are very likely to have a hard-fought battle in Dangyang. If we don't enter Hunan, there is an emergency in Dangyang. I It would be a great sin to wait!”
"Do you still want Jiangxi?" Fuquan frowned and asked, "The fake people are clearly here to rob Nanchang. If we enter Hunan, can Nanchang Mansion still be able to hold it?"
"It can't be defended!" The person who answered this question was Jie Shu, who shook his head and said, "Prince Yu, there are only a few thousand defenders in Nanchang Prefecture, and most of them are in Yining Prefecture, which borders Hunan to the west. . The only garrison in Nanchang City is Fu Biao, the governor of Jiangxi Province. There are less than 2,000 people in total. What are they guarding?"
"Nanchang Fucheng cannot be lost!" Fuquan shook his head repeatedly, "There are not many soldiers in Jiujiang now. If Nanchang is lost, Jiujiang will soon be lost. If Jiujiang is lost, the Yangtze River will be cut off... Fake Ming Our troops may even march to Wuchang, and by then we won’t be able to capture Changsha and Hengzhou!”
Tuhai nodded, "This is indeed not possible... If Wuchang, Nanchang, and Jiujiang are lost, we will not be able to return to Beijing. It seems that we must defeat this puppet Ming army first, and then enter Hunan." "
"How to defeat him?" Fuquan's imitation pockmarked face suddenly became serious.
The combat effectiveness of the puppet Ming army seems to be stronger than Wu Sangui's soldiers!
"Your Majesty, my slave has some strategies to defeat the Ming army!"
A knight following Tu Hai, wearing a yellow flag cloth mask, suddenly came up to offer advice.
Fuquan glanced at this man and asked, "Who is he?"
"My lord," Tu Hai said with a smile, "his name is Zhou Peigong, and he is a slave of the Zhenghuang Banner Han Army."
Zhou Peigong has finally caught up!
He took advantage of the opportunity of the slave gate to open and raised the flag on Tuhai's recommendation. And he was carried directly into the Zhenghuang Banner Han Army. Now he even puts on the yellow mandarin jacket that he only dreamed of getting, and pretends to be an imperial guard to protect the fake Mazi Fuquan.
"Zhou Peigong? This name sounds familiar," Fuquan asked again, "Is he a new slave or a Chen slave?"
The slaves are now divided into old and new ones.
Those who join the ranks of Eight Banners slaves because of the opening of the slave gate this time are called new slaves, and those who have been slaves for a long time are called Chen slaves, that is, old slaves... Of course, these slaves become more and more fragrant with age!
Tu Hai smiled and said: "He is the same Zhou Peigong who went to Guangzhou with Fu Honglie to investigate the fake Ming Dynasty imperial examination, and then went to high school together."
"Oh, that's a talented person, come here and talk!" When Fuquan heard that Zhou Peigong was from the imperial examination in Guangzhou, he immediately looked at him differently.
Zhu Heji originally added the names of Zhou Peigong and Fu Honglie to the high school list in order to pour "loyalty" on these two traitors. Unexpectedly, it was self-defeating and made the two dog slaves Zhou Peigong and Fu Honglie even more important to the Qing court.
Of course, the rest of the names on the "List of Renzike Gongshi" were all wanted by the Qing Dynasty!
"My slave, please pay your respects to Grandpa Wang." Although Zhou Peigong knew that Fuquan was a "fake pockmark", he still got off his horse and then bowed respectfully. He did not get up even after traveling thousands of miles, so he knelt down and replied.
This treatment is much worse than that of Zhuge Sanhe, Yang Qilong, Liu Xuanchu, Zuo Chunqiu and other "rebel strategists".
The fake Mazi Fuquan didn't ask him to get up, but asked hurriedly: "Zhou Peigong, please tell me what plan you have."
"Returning to the prince," Zhou Peigong said with a smile, "the slave's strategy is to attack in the east and attack in the west, wait for work in leisure, throw bricks and stones, and attack halfway..."
I have to say that Zhou Peigong had quite a few strategies!
.......
When the fake Mazi Fuquan temporarily stopped going to Hunan and instead used Zhou Peigong's strategy to fight the Ming army heading north in Jiangxi, the real Mazi Xuanye's army was marching into the official camp on the east bank of the Jianyang River. On the road. valley
On both sides of the team, there were riders running back and forth from time to time, constantly bringing military reports from the front army and the situation of the Wu army.
"Your Majesty, Shilipu is under the control of the front army led by Ba Hai. The site for setting up the formation has been surveyed. There are hundreds of forward battalion cavalry covering all sides. The materials for setting up the formation and stronghold have also been prepared... ....”
"Your Majesty, the palace in Jianyang Town has been prepared. As soon as the Emperor arrives, he can take command!"
"Your Majesty, Wu Ni's army is advancing along the official road west of Jianyang River, but the marching speed is quite slow. There seems to be a lot of equipment!"
Upon hearing the reward, Emperor Kangxi just smiled: "Wu Sangui was fooled this time! Moreover, this old guy was reluctant to part with his pots and jars. He walked so slowly. By the time he reached Shilipu, Bahai's fortress must have been indestructible. Wang Fuchen's ten thousand It’s time for the elite troops to arrive.”
Leerjin next to him smiled as if he was taking advantage of the situation and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you send more than ten thousand Eight Banners cavalry across the Jianyang River to charge at him for a few times. After defeating the spirit of that old thief Wu Sangui, we can fight him decisively!"
Kangxi glanced at him indifferently and said with a smile: "Lerjin, how about you take three thousand cavalry to charge one?"
"Slave..." How dare Leerjin go!
Dong E went boldly, and there were 20,000 people! Give Wu Sangui's men a beating and then leave him on Xianglu Mountain to starve for many days? Now there is thick smoke billowing in the direction of Xianglu Mountain, which doesn't look very good. I wonder if Dong E has passed away?
Kangxi did not try to slander Leer Jin any more, but said with a smile: "Wu Sangui walked slowly because of the heavy baggage and too many artillery pieces, and because he was marching in formation. If I used the Eight Banners soldiers to charge, wouldn't it be right?" Are you aware of this old guy’s plan? This time I am going to take it easy and wait for the hard work. I will first lay out an array ten miles away to consume Wu Sangui. When he is almost exhausted, I will then attack with the whole army and defeat him in one fell swoop!”
Emperor Kangxi looked relaxed and spoke wholesale words from Zhuo Butai, which made people feel confident and confident about victory.
It has to be said that although Emperor Kangxi had pockmarks on his face and some sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, his demeanor and temperament were still very worthy of the pockmarked little holy master of the previous generation.
If Wu Sangui wanted to catch him, it might not be that easy!
...
"President, good news...the general in charge of cavalry has defeated tens of thousands of captives under Dong E's command, and is now hunting down Baylor Dong E."
Chuan Qi flew to Wu Sangui's horse and reported to him the latest battle report on Xianglu Mountain.
Although Wu Sangui had said before that he didn't want Dong E, but only Xiao Mazi. But he still arranged for General Ma Bao, the general in charge of the cavalry, to lead two thousand sudden cavalry to ambush at the foot of Xianglu Mountain. When Dong E, who couldn't bear the hunger, came down the mountain, he immediately sent an army to chase him.
Dong E led 20,000 people to the Xianglu Mountain in a daze, but was beaten violently by Wu Yingqi. He was also surrounded and starved for several days. Not only did he starve to death many Green Camp slave soldiers, but he also killed the Eight Banners cavalry under Dong E's command. Starved into foot soldiers - the poor horses were eaten!
Although killing horses and eating meat saved the Eight Banners soldiers and the coated slave soldiers on Xianglu Mountain from starving to death, they were in trouble when they ran away. Not only did they run slowly on two legs, but they also lost the protection of the cavalry, and a group of Eight Banners men were not good at marching in an infantry formation. As a result, they were charged by two thousand cavalry led by the fierce man Ma Bao, which resulted in heavy casualties!
When a group of generals following Wu Sangui heard this military report, they all showed envious expressions - Dong E is also a Baylor, if he is caught, he can at least be replaced by a marquis, right?
But Wu Sangui smiled and said: "Send an order to Ma Bao and tell him not to arrest Dong E...catch more Eight Banners soldiers, tie them up with ropes and escort them over, and let the brothers have a look. The so-called Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers" , nothing more than that!”
How brilliant!
If the soldiers below see hundreds or thousands of Eight Banners soldiers tied up with ropes, then the fear of the Eight Banners heavenly soldiers will completely disappear.
A group of generals all wanted to raise their thumbs up and praise Wu Sangui.
Wu Sangui twirled his beard and said with a smile: "That little pockmarked Xuan Ye must be waiting in Shilipu. But we don't have to rush to fight. Today we will set up camp ten miles north of Shilipu, along the Jianyang River.
Tomorrow, we will make food at Yin hour, set out from camp at Mao hour, and line up the formation at Chen hour. When Si hour comes... let's fire the first shot! "
