Chapter 382 Reinforcements are coming

A brigade of Ming troops rushed into the city and rushed around the streets. In addition to marked internal forces in the city, anyone who dared to hold a soldier would kill him on the spot.

This city where Zhao Ming surrendered in advance but refused to surrender, Donghai Town did not accept surrender from the moment the Ming army entered the city.

Before this, the surrenderers were different from the time and the merits they made, and the last time they were to protect their lives and family safety. However, since the city was broken, they had to be killed, or become prisoners, and sold to Taiwan as a coolie.

"Don't kill!" The mighty roar resounded throughout the city as the Ming army entered the city.

In less than an hour, Wu Jincheng was captured by the Ming army, and a large number of Ming troops entered the city and controlled the four cities.

Although there were still sporadic battles in the city at this time, the general situation was settled and the city had fallen into Zhao Ming's hands.

"Wujin is the gateway to the east of the lake and is also the main road to Jinling. It is a joyful congratulations to the revival of Wujin!" Qian Qianyi exclaimed.

After taking over Wujin County, Suzhou and Songjiang Prefectures, there will be barriers. Even if the Qing reinforcements arrive, Zhao Ming can rely on Wu to enter the city and resist the Qing army's attack.

This made Zhao Ming relieved and smiled and said, "I am the only one who can take over Wujin County, and it is also the result of Muzhai Gong! I will write to the court to explain this matter!"

Qian Qianyi was overjoyed, but his face was calm, "It is a blessing that my old and old body can still do my best before the country can do my best. I dare not ask for any reward!"

Half an hour later, the Ming army completely controlled the city. After a little cleanup of the Ming army entering the city, Zhao Ming pulled out his horse and entered the city.

At this time, the people in the city were still in fear, afraid of being affected by war, but the well-informed gentry had already put on Taoist robes and net scarves, regained their clothes and hats in their home country, and stood on both sides of the street to welcome Zhao Dashuai into the city.

Zhao Ming led a group of generals and schools to go straight to the prefecture government office. Wang Yi led a few people out and saluted Zhao Ming, "Master, Li Benshen ran away!"

This was as expected by Zhao Ming. If Li Benshen did not run away, the battle in the city would not have ended so soon.

Zhao Ming waved his hand, "It's okay, I have arranged for the horse army to wait outside the city."

"The general is wise!" Wang Yi immediately clasped his fists.

Zhao Ming looked down at everyone immediately and saw several Qing generals wearing green camp armor behind him, smiling and said, "You guys are not coming in yet, introduce yourself!"

Zhou Jinyong, Zhou Jinhai, and several other green camp commanders hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "I'm humble in the position of Zhou Jinyong, Zhou Jinhai, pay homage to the commander!"

Zhao Ming and others reported their names one by one, and then said, "You are the one who raises troops as an internal supporter and helps me to break the city. Besides, I have promised Muzhai Gong that you will not blame me beforehand and end it. Now you will be recruited first at the original level and then clean up the gains later. I will reward you with merits!"

After hearing what Zhao Ming said, many Qing generals hurriedly thanked him before standing up.

When Zhao Ming entered the city, he went from Wujin along the canal to the official road in Danyang County, Zhenjiang Prefecture, thousands of Qing army infantry and cavalry mixed together and fled west in a hurry.

Li Benshen's army was an elite leader of the Qing army, but after defeating the battle, he was no different from other Qing army.

If you have to say a little difference, they are more experienced in running.

Because of Mrs. Xing’s affairs, Gao Jie and Li Zicheng had a mortal enemy. So when Li Zicheng defeated Sun Chuanting and entered Tongguan, Gao Jie, who was in Guanzhong, had no way to die.

It was Li Zicheng who had occupied Henan and Xiangyang and blocked Gao Jie's path to excellence. Facing Li Zicheng's million-dollar army, Gao Jie was no match for him at all and was already in a desperate situation.

In such a desperate situation, Gao Jie led his troops to flee to Shanxi. At this time, Li Zicheng had already fought eastward and occupied the entire Yellow River Basin. However, he entered Shanxi from Guanzhong, passed through Hebei, Shandong, and finally fled to the Xuzhou area controlled by the Southern Ming Dynasty.

Gao Jie's army traveled thousands of miles alone and crossed the area occupied by the Shun Army, which can be said to be a big miracle.

At this time, the soldiers in Xuzhou Town were not as lucky as before, because the horse army in Donghai Town was chasing them.

The soldiers of Xuzhou Town had a very experienced way to discard long weapons, and many of them even removed dozens of kilograms of armor so that they could run faster.

They were indeed escaping very fast, enough to look down on other armies, but their two old legs were cavalrymen who could not run four legs.

"No, I'm catching up again!" A scream rang out. The exhausted Qing army heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. They plucked the courage to look back. They saw the Ming cavalry who ambushed them in the west of the city rushed up again. They couldn't help but feel despair, and at the same time they couldn't help but scold. The grandchildren of Donghai Town wanted to kill them all.

Li Benshen was running at the horse and looked back, feeling extremely angry, "Don't chase the enemy, stay at the forefront of others, and meet each other in the future, don't Zhao Zamao understand the principle of "Zhao Zamao?"

There are few cavalry generals in Donghai Town, mainly Luo Wenyao and others who were seconded from Li Chengdong.

At this time, Luo Wenyao had a ferocious face and ran in front as usual. He stabbed several people in his hand with a long spear in his hand, and had already drunk the enemy's blood.

For cavalry, the most comfortable thing is to cover up and kill the defeated army. The defeated army only cares about running forward, and the cavalry chases up from behind, shooting one by one, not to mention how relaxed and comfortable it is.

At this time, the Ming army had already had their eyes red and was fascinated by the feeling of chasing the Qing army. Luo Wenyao pursued the west for more than 40 miles from Wu, but still did not intend to give up. It seemed that he had to kill the Qing army's defeated troops and clean up.

The war horses galloped, and the cavalry rushed in again in the blink of an eye. Among the defeated Qing army, the soldiers riding on the horse drew out their battle knives, raised their spears, and rode their bodies sideways in the middle of the mercedes. The weapons in their hands aimed at the back of the Qing army running in front of them, and launched a fatal blow.

The war horses galloped past, the cavalry's sword flew over, and blood shot out. The running Qing army was chopped to the ground. The cavalry galloped past, threw the body behind, and then chopped the next Qing army.

The Ming cavalry holding a horse lance crashed into the Qing army like a tank, stabbed the Qing army's back, and knocked the Qing army's body forward, causing the defeated soldiers to exclaim, and they all took their last breath, spread their feet and ran wildly.

At this time, Luo Wenyao killed several people in a row, stabbed a Qing army general to death, and then took a fancy to the next target, Li Benshen, who was running wildly.

Luo Wenyao looked over from behind. Li Benshen lost his helmet for some reason. He was shaking in the Mercedes-Benz and wearing a good set of armor.

Although Li Benshen had a embarrassed back, it can still be seen that he was a general of the Qing army.

Luo Wenyao knew that he was not an ordinary Qing army, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He clamped the horse's belly and chased him quickly. He leaned forward, grabbed the horse's reins with one hand to activate the war horse, lifted the horse's spear with the other, and prepared to stab Li Benshen to death with one spear.

Li Benshen was running, feeling someone chasing behind him, and suddenly felt a strong wind coming. He hurriedly turned sideways in horror and actually grabbed the horse spear that Luo Wenyao stabbed.

Luo Wenyao was slightly stunned when he heard the words, and was furious in an instant. He was about to pull out the horse spear, but he suddenly shouted: "Luo Wenyao, do you want to kill me?"

Li Benshen turned his head and saw clearly that he was from Xuzhou Town. He immediately roared and asked sternly.

Luo Wenyao then saw clearly that the person in front of him was Li Benshen, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Just when he was stunned, Li Benshen took the opportunity to pull it and snatched the horse spear.

Luo Wenyao's hands were empty, and he realized that he was about to draw his sword, but Li Benshen threw dozens of nearly heavy horse spears to the ground, and hurriedly urged the war horse to move forward, pulling Yu Luo Wenyao away.

Seeing this, Luo Wenyao did not continue to pursue him. Looking at Li Benshen's back, he turned his horse in place with a complicated expression.

At this moment, a horn suddenly came from the wilderness to the west. Luo Wenyao hurriedly looked up and saw a dense array of Qing cavalry in the distance, speeding towards the east.

Looking into the distance, Luo Wenyao was shocked and couldn't help but change his face. With so many cavalry, could the Qing army reinforcements have arrived?

"Hurry up, go back!" Luo Wenyao immediately pulled the reins of the horse and roared loudly.

The flag plaque around him immediately blew the horn, and the sharp horn sound echoed on the earth, which was a signal of retreat.

The Ming cavalry, who were chasing the defeated Qing army, was startled when they heard the sound of trumpets and immediately gave up the pursuit. They all tied their horses, turned their heads, and evacuated eastward.

The Qing cavalry that appeared to the west directly bypassed the defeated soldiers in Xuzhou Town on the front, and thousands of cavalry galloped high, holding up spears and scimitars, chasing them in the direction where the Ming army fled.

Ma Guanghui jumped into the horse and raised his sword, waved his sword and shouted: "Chasing me, kill all the pirates, I'm going to peel Zhao Zamao's skin."

The crisis in Jiangnan was just when people were employed. The Qing court had no time to eliminate Ma Guanghui, so he made meritorious service and led reinforcements to reinforce Wu Jin to help Li Benshen. He did not want to run into the defeated Li Benshen halfway.

Depending on the situation, the Ming army had just broken the city and the cavalry rushed over. Maybe they could even beat Zhao Zamao without any mistakes.

If Wu Jin could be recaptured, Ma Guanghui made a great contribution. He urged the war horse, raised his sword and roared, "Chase, chase!"

For a moment, Luo Wenyao led more than a thousand Ming cavalry and galloped in front of him. Ma Guanghui led nearly ten thousand Qing cavalry and galloped behind him. Ten thousand horses trampled on the earth like rolling thunder, with a vast aura. The two cavalry and horses rolled towards Wujin.
