The atmosphere of a decisive battle permeated the suburbs of Guangzhou.
Fukangan certainly felt this atmosphere.
He felt a little uneasy.
The Ming army on the opposite side was different from all the opponents he had encountered before.
When it comes to being brave and fearless of death, he didn't feel that much.
However, new tactics developed by the Ming army based on new weapons emerged one after another, making it difficult to guard against.
Especially when the other party throws explosive bombs for free, it makes Fukang'an even more worried.
Fukangan had calculated in his mind that according to the Ming army's fighting style, the consumption of gunpowder was simply unimaginable.
With the production capacity in Guangdong, it is almost impossible to support such gunpowder consumption.
Then Ni Ming, how come you are so rich?
In the final analysis, this war is about money and food.
Ni Ming controlled Nanyang, took West Borneo, and gained the Annan West Mountain Dynasty to claim vassal status.
There is no shortage of people, money, or food.
It can be said that the conditions were much better than when the Qing Dynasty started in Liaodong.
Thinking of this, Fukangan became even more uneasy.
This decisive battle was what Fukang'an was looking forward to.
The Ming army had few soldiers and wanted to attack the Qing army's fortifications.
It sounds like there is no problem.
According to common sense.
The Qing army had an absolute advantage in strength and solid fortifications to rely on.
Don't talk about winning.
There is still a chance of a draw.
As long as the two sides fought a tug-of-war at Huangpu, the Qing Dynasty could rely on its absolute advantage in national strength and use manpower to consume Ni Ming's thousands of infantry.
Rationally, Fukang'an felt that there was no problem and he was sure of it.
But the uneasiness in his heart still reminded him to be prepared to lose this game.
"Let General Shande of Guangzhou and Governor Guo Shixun of Guangdong be prepared to evacuate the family members of the bannermen to Zhaoqing Mansion first..."
Fukang'an wrote an autograph letter, instructing a confidant to enter Guangzhou City secretly, so that the Governor of Guangdong and the General of Guangzhou, the two current top and second-ranking officials in Guangzhou City, should be prepared.
If Guangzhou fails to defend, it will have no choice but to retreat to Zhaoqing Prefecture and rely on Guangxi to confront Ni Ming with Zhaoqing Prefecture as the front.
Under such circumstances, the women, children, old and weak of the Eight Banners cannot be allowed to fall into the enemy's hands - this will have a huge impact on the morale of the military officers in Guangdong and Guangxi.
Except for a few confidants.
No one knew that Fukangan had already prepared for defeat.
He even gathered thousands of Eight Banners cavalry, and at the same time concentrated all the army's horses on the Eight Banners side.
In Fukang'an's view, the tens of thousands of Guangdong green battalions are not as valuable as these thousands of Eight Banners soldiers.
Once things were impossible, these thousands of Eight Banners soldiers who passed through the battle formation were the foundation of the Qing Dynasty - Fukang'an mentioned it in his memorial to Qianlong.
"The propaganda against the Ming Dynasty that "Chinese learning is the basis and Western learning is the application" is actually sinister. The Qing Dynasty has always been based on the Eight Banners..."
He took his mind back.
Fukangan took people to inspect the military camp and then returned to his commander's tent.
But he couldn't sleep no matter what - the noise from the Ming army on the opposite side continued until the third day of the month.
Listening to the shouts of "Long live the Ming Dynasty".
Where can I sleep in Fukangan?
Even when there was no movement from the Ming army.
He was still tossing and turning with his eyes open.
do not know when.
Fukangan finally fell asleep and had a dream.
I dreamed that Ming soldiers carrying the sun and moon flag and wearing red military uniforms stepped into the city of Beijing. All the Eight Banners disciples in the city were taken outside Beijing and beheaded. The ground was dyed red with blood, and the screams lingered in Fukangan's mind. .
Wow.
When Fukangan suddenly woke up from his sleep.
All he heard in his ears was the sound of gongs "dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang."
"What's going on? What's going on?!"
Fukangan ran out in a hurry.
"Commander, there is movement over there in Ni Ming! They are leaving camp!"
"Out of camp?"
Fukangan climbed onto the observation car, took the telescopes handed to him from left and right, and looked forward.
I only saw the rumble of footsteps coming from the Ming army's barracks.
Groups of Ming soldiers filed out of the military camp and asked.
They lined up in the open space in front of the military camp, forming three rows.
at the same time.
Artillery carts pulled by buffaloes and mules also rumbled out.
The thickness of the gun barrel covered with canvas was not visible, but the length of the gun barrel was enough to make Fukang'an frown - this was a weapon that the Ming army had not used before.
The Qing army also had this kind of large artillery.
But Fukang'an knew that if nothing unexpected happened to the Ming army's artillery, they would only fire explosive shells!
Heavy artillery was used.
It is clear.
The Ming army is going to fight an upright decisive battle! !
Fukangan took a deep breath.
"Send the order, guard the military stronghold, and don't move rashly!"
Building a strong camp and taking a defensive stance was a strategy that had been decided before.
Although Fukang'an had planned before that, the Ming army would have a bloody encounter in front of the Qing army's stronghold.
But when the Ming army really came out in full force.
When it's time to launch a massive attack.
That uneasy feeling once again plunged Fukangan into anxiety.
He held up his binoculars and stared at the Ming army formation ahead.
"Why are you so elite?"
........
The early morning sun shines through the fog on the river, caressing the river bank with a hazy warmth.
After a while, the warmth of the sun turned into scorching heat.
"Fortunately, it's only March now. If we wait until May or June to send troops, the weather alone would be unbearable."
Zhu Daohua held a cattail leaf fan and frowned as he looked at the sun hanging in the sky.
"Your Majesty, the weather is pretty good now. It won't be too hot in Guangdong in March."
Gu Song said from the side.
"The key is how to defeat these 100,000 Qing troops!"
Gu Song stared at the tortoise shell-like military camp on the Qing army's side.
"Don't worry, they can't stop it."
Zhu Daohua looked towards Guangzhou City.
"We are certain to win this one. Fukangan lost when he thought he was qualified for a decisive battle. The key is how much he can win."
Zhu Daohua said.
Gu Song shook the cattail leaf fan in his hand, pondered for a moment and said: "This one will at least capture Guangzhou Prefecture, Zhaoqing Prefecture, Huizhou Prefecture, Shaozhou Prefecture, Jiaying Prefecture, and Chaozhou Prefecture! Drive the forces of the Qing court to Luoding Prefecture. Eze!"
These houses are available.
Basically, it’s most of Guangdong.
The current Guangzhou Prefecture covers a large area.
Including most of Qingyuan, Dongguan, Zhongshan, Zhuhai and Foshang in later generations.
The same is true for Zhaoqing Prefecture. In addition to Duanzhou and Gaoyao, Sanshui, Gaoming, Yangjiang, etc. are also under the jurisdiction of Zhaoqing Prefecture.
"We must eliminate the troops held by Fukangan as much as possible!"
Zhu Daohua took a deep breath.
The decisive battle is about to begin.
It's a big gamble.
Zhu Daohua invested all his army here.
The Qing army also concentrated troops from several southern provinces.
It can be said that this victory has been won. Zhu Daohua can even swallow the jujube directly and swallow all the provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, and Yunnan.
But Boss Zhu has no such plan.
Because he really couldn't have so many cadres in his hands, and what he wanted to establish would not be a traditional Chinese feudal empire. Although Zhu Daohua held the banner of restoring the Ming Dynasty, he was the de facto founding emperor.
so.
The rules from him are the so-called ancestral methods.
This rule.
It's about to be established.
Lay the foundation.
Otherwise, if his rebellion this time is just to establish another feudal empire that is not much different from the Qing Dynasty.
So what's the point?
Take Guangdong, lay a solid foundation, establish systems, train cadres, train the army, and develop industry.
This is not the result of two or three years.
How can we guide the entire China to enter the era of industrialization?
"This battle is to capture all of Guangdong!"
Zhu Daohua got on his horse and rode out of the camp.
........
Three Army infantry brigades, a Chasseur company, a howitzer battalion, and a large-caliber mortar battalion.
A wide front is laid out.
Long-range firepower that had not been used before.
It was prepared for this decisive battle - otherwise, when Yang Liufang led 3,000 green battalion soldiers to challenge him, he would have just bombarded them with heavy artillery.
Just like this.
Wouldn't it be to scare Fukangan away?
If Fukangan is determined to run away.
Zhu Daohua really couldn't keep him.
All preparations were made to give Fukangan the illusion that "I can hold on".
Let him put all the chips in his hand on the battlefield.
Now.
Fukangan has already studded.
It’s time for the Ming Army to show their trump card!
Tap tap tap!
The sound of neat steps shook the river bank.
The people watching the excitement on the south bank across the Pearl River were afraid to show their anger.
"This is too neat..."
"How can a soldier like this be compared to the loose soldiers from the Green Camp?"
"Destiny is coming to light!"
"The Tatars still have the Eight Banners..."
"Is the Eight Banners so elite?"
"I can't say for sure, but isn't it said that the Eight Banners are invincible?"
"The Ming army is completely invincible now."
Rows of military formations stood solemnly.
Even ordinary people who don't understand battle formations can see the overwhelming momentum.
What's more, the underworld leaders of the Tiandihui are still hesitating.
"The Ming army is so elite that it cannot be compared to the Tatars!"
"The Tatars are definitely in trouble. How can those bastards in the Green Camp fight against such elites?"
"Not to mention the Green Camp, the Eight Banners in Guangzhou City are not good either. They may be worse than the Green Camp."
"Yes, yes, those old men walking in ladder cages, can they fight?"
"Hey, if the Tatars don't bring the Eight Banners from Beijing, I'm afraid the whole south will change its color."
During the discussion, these underworld leaders looked at each other.
The smart ones are already planning to go back and kill people...
....
"Can King Ming's army be considered elite?"
In the other direction on the south bank.
Luo Jiangong smiled and looked at the three representatives of Gao Yaowu, Sanshui Chen and Xiangshan Ye.
The representatives of the three families looked shocked. Just as they were about to say something, Luo Jiangong waved his hand and said, "There is no need to say anything now. You will know when the fight starts." '
"By then... you people should also know who to follow is the right path."
Luo Jiangong did not look at the representatives of the three families, but focused on the battlefield on the other side of the river.
If it were according to his ideas.
Prince Ming was still too kind.
The successive dynasties that conquered the world did not just kill everyone.
Rich families like this should have been eliminated as much as possible and all the land resources under their control should have been confiscated.
In this way, the foundation of the new dynasty will be solid.
........
Fukang'an's face was as sinking as water.
In fact, the two sides have been facing each other since.
Small-scale contact and fighting were taking place between the two sides.
But it was more of a confrontation between some elites from the Green Camp and the hunters from the Ming Army.
This kind of majestic formation has never been seen before.
So Fukang'an felt that something was wrong after seeing the Ming army's formation.
"Yunsong, you said...this Ming army has only been training for less than a year?"
Fukangan called Lin Guoliang's cousin.
Although Lin Guoliang was defeated in Borneo.
But he was one of the few generals among the Qing army who had direct contact with the Ming army.
It can be regarded as barely "knowing".
Therefore, Fukang'an transferred him to his side and listened to him.
Hearing Fukang'an's inquiry, Lin Guoliang hurriedly knelt down and responded: "Commander Commander, the Ming army is more elite than before. It has only been training for less than a year and it has achieved such results. It can be seen that the Ming army training method must be there." Merit."
Liu Guangliang added from the side: "Commander Commander, Zhu Daohua, the leader of the rebels against the Ming Dynasty, has three hundred old brothers. He traveled with him to the countries of Europe for five years, and also received long-term training at the best military academy in Europe."
"There is also the Army and Navy Officers Academy in Niming. They are all trained according to the standardized officer training manual." Vicente has been to Batam Island and has some knowledge.
"I have also read the officer training manual. It is nothing more than the methods of the former Qi Shaobao's [Military Training Records] and [New Book of Records]. There is nothing strange about it." Sun Qijiao said.
Fukangan did not respond.
But think in your heart.
This method may only be used in the Eight Banners.
On the surface, the country was a Manchu-Han family, but Fukang'an, as a senior official of the Eight Banners, certainly knew that from the emperor to the iron-hatted kings of the Eight Banners, the string of defense against the Han was tight.
If this method of using standardized training to train soldiers and officers into almost the same mold was used in the Green Camp, how could the Qing government use it with confidence?
but....
There are only three hundred old thieves in Ni Ming.
The newly trained ones are not as good as these three hundred people anyway.
In other words, these more than 10,000 elite soldiers are the most elite and most capable of Ni Ming. It will be difficult to have such elite soldiers if they want to expand the army in the future - the soldiers will be courageous.
How to get good soldiers without good generals?
Fortunately, there are only three hundred...
But if he gets Guangdong.
These three hundred old thieves may become three thousand or thirty thousand...
At that time, how will the country and the DPRK respond?
There are too few people in the Eight Banners.
If the Eight Banners are the generals and the Green Camp is the soldiers...
Thinking of this, Fukang'an thought of several issues of [Ta Kung Pao], [Sun and Moon News], and [Ming Dynasty Army and Navy Recruit Drill Code] that he sent to Beijing.
"After this battle, the imperial court will also prepare a new army!"
The more he thought about the method of "Eight Banners Generals and Green Camp Soldiers" that Fukang'an was thinking about, the more he felt that it was up to something.
However, the most pressing issue now is to win this battle first!
"Commander Commander, the leader of the Ming thief has come out!"
Fukangan quickly took a closer look.
Only a few cavalry were seen in front of the Ming army's formation.
Looking through the binoculars, in front of him was a young man wearing a crown of jade and a brocade robe, with an unbelievably tall war horse sitting on his crotch.
"That's Zhu Daohua, the king of the counter-Ming Dynasty and the pseudo-Ming Dynasty." This was the first time Fukangan saw Zhu Daohua's appearance.
His slender eyes moved from Zhu Daohua's body to those riding behind Zhu Daohua.
The two knights in the middle are holding Mingwang beetles and a flag of the sun and the moon.
Several riders on the outside raised their cards.
There are eight square signs in total.
Write one word on each.
"Expel the Tartars and restore China."
Fukangan's face darkened.
Right now.
Zhu Daohua rode his horse and walked slowly in front of each Ming army line.
"Long live!! Long live King Ming!!"
The cheers one after another shocked the minds of the Qing army's top brass from Fukang'an on down.
The Ming army on the opposite side hasn't even released their rewards yet, but their morale is so high that it's ridiculous...
The long live shouts that came and went quickly died down, but what followed was more than 10,000 people shouting in unison.
"Expel the Tartars! Restore China!"
"Expel the Tartars! Restore China!"
"Expel the Tartars! Restore China!"
After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly stood up from the bed. If you want to read the latest chapters, please download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.

He took a big breath of fresh air, his chest trembling.
Confused, confused, and all kinds of emotions came to my mind.
Where is this?
Afterwards, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, and then became even more confused.
A single dormitory?
Even if he was successfully rescued, he should be in the ward now.
And my body...how could I not have any injuries at all?
With doubts, Shi Yu's eyes quickly swept across the room, and finally his eyes rested on a mirror beside the bed.
The mirror showed his current appearance. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he looked very handsome.
But the problem is, this is not him! Download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.
My previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties who had been working for a while.
And now, no matter how you look, this appearance is that of a high school student...
This change made Shi Yu stunned for a long time.
Don't tell him that the operation was successful...
The body and appearance have changed. This is not a matter of surgery or not, but magic.
He turned into a completely different person!
Could it be...that he traveled through time?
In addition to the mirror placed by the bedside, which was obviously not feng shui-friendly, Shi Yu also found three books next to it.
Shi Yu picked it up and took a look. The title of the book instantly silenced him.
"Essential Animal Breeding Manual for Beginner Breeders"
"Postpartum Care of Pet Pets"
"Evaluation Guide for Interracial Beast-Eared Girls"
Shi Yu:? ? ?
The names of the first two books are pretty normal, but what happened to the last one?
"cough."
Shi Yu looked solemnly and stretched out his hand, but his arm soon stiffened.
Just when he was about to open the third book and see what it was about, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a large number of memories came flooding back.
Icefield City.
