Chapter 535

Wu Liuqi was known as General Dali and was also a famous and famous figure in history.

During the Battle of Jinhua, this man abandoned Yanzhou, causing the gates of Jinhua to open up, and Zhu Dadian died in the city.

Wu Liuqi ran hundreds of miles and fled from Yanzhou to Fujian. Soon after, he followed Zheng Zhilong to surrender to the Qing army and was appointed as the general. Speaking of which, Wu Liuqi was once considered a member of the Zhejiang Division.

"Master General, I am familiar with Wu Liuqi! I am willing to lead the troops of our troops as the pioneers and will definitely break through Taizhou City." Wang Deshun volunteered.

Zhao Ming nodded slightly, looked up at the sky again, and immediately ordered the army to advance at full speed and rushed to the city of Taizhou before noon.

"Wolf smoke!" On the official road, the soldiers from Donghai Town were running forward, and the cavalry in front suddenly shouted loudly.

Zhao Ming couldn't help but hold back his horse and looked around. Sure enough, a rolling smoke rose from the direction of Taizhou in the north.

This was mostly the Qing army in Taizhou who discovered Donghai Town and used the wolf smoke to warn Yangzhou.

"Go forward at full speed!" Zhao Ming's expression trembled and shouted loudly.

When Ajige learned that Donghai Town was rushing towards Taizhou, he would definitely understand that Mingjun was going to cut off his retreat.

At that time, the Qing army would either send troops to reinforce Taizhou and intercept Zhao Ming's army, or withdraw from Jiangnan and Huainan in advance, forming a line of defense from Xuzhou on the north bank of the Huai River, starting from the Qinling Mountains in the west and ending at the entrance of the Huai River in the east, making the world reappear in the situation of the Song and Jin ties.

Therefore, Donghai Town must quickly take over Taizhou, intersperse to Gaoyou, and cut off the route of the Qing army's retreat.

The soldiers who were jogging forward on the official road, and when they heard the officer's shouting, they immediately took big steps. The 40,000 troops rushed towards Taizhou City more than ten miles away like a winding giant python.

In less than half an hour, the vanguard of Donghai Town came to the city of Taizhou along the Yanyan Canal.

Before the Qing army advanced south, the salt industry in Lianghuai was very developed, and Yangzhou gathered many salt merchants who were rich enough to rival the country, and their economic prosperity was no less than that in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Because of the rich local area, Taizhou City was built more solid than ordinary county towns. The city was three meters tall and 13 miles in circumference, and it had reached the level of a mansion city.

Zhao Ming strangled his war horse three or four miles away from the city, and looked into the city from afar. He saw the suspension bridge in front of the city gate, and there were figures on the city walls. The soldiers were running back and forth, preparing to defend the Ming army.

"The view around the city of Dashen is open and there is no coincidence. Either the defenders surrender or we attack, there is probably no other way!" Senator Gu Yanwu said.

Zhao Ming looked at Taizhou, but he was full of passion. "A mere small county in Taizhou can also stop me. Let someone shoot the book and call for surrender first. If the defenders do not surrender, no one will be left after the city is broken!"

Since the expedition, General Zhao has been invincible and has just returned from a great victory in the northern expedition. Even Hong Chengchou has become a defeated general. Why fear a small county in Taizhou, Wu Liuqi, a rebel general.

"Master General, Wu Liuqi fled without fighting, killing Grand Secretary Zhu Dadian, which made His Highness the Crown Prince extremely passive. The soldiers of Zhejiang Army suffered countless losses. He was afraid that he would not surrender." Wang Deshun reminded.

Zhao Ming nodded and said, "I am not expecting Wu Liuqi to surrender, but to tell the defenders in the city that I am here!"

Wang Deshun reacted and said with a smile: "Yes, yes! Even if Wu Liuqi did not surrender, the Qing soldiers in the city would probably be scared when they heard the title of the commander."

Zhao Ming smiled. He had been in the world for nearly ten years and believed in his name, which was still influential and intimidating.

At this moment, Zhao Ming ordered Wang Deshun to send troops to the city to shout, while he commanded the army to the camp and summoned all the generals to discuss strategies for siege.

On the top of the city, Qing soldiers carried bundles of arrows and buckets of gunpowder, and rushed to the city wall.

The guard general Wu Liuqi, wearing an exquisite armor and holding a sword, led a group of subordinates to pass the city wall, and finally came to the south gate wall city, looking at the Ming army gathering more and more in the distance, with a solemn expression.

At this time, the Qing army in the city heard that Donghai Town was invading, and all the people in the city went to the city to defend.

Wu Liuqi held the walls with his hands. The Qing army beside him saw the Ming army swarming from the south. First, the flag soldiers rolled up dust, and the soldiers carrying muskets behind him, all over the mountains, making the Qing army in the city frightened.

"Zhao Zamao really sent troops to attack Taizhou!" Wu Liuqi gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know which general is the leader of Donghai Town?"

Just as he was puzzled, among the Ming cavalry, the white cavalry rushed out, carrying Zhao Ming's banner, and ran towards the city of Taizhou.

Wu Liuqi saw nearly a hundred cavalry on the top of the city and rushed straight to the city. The cavalry was running, and a military flag was flying in the wind, with a big word "Zhao" written on it.

"Come on the Mile Mile!" Wu Liuqi shouted immediately.

The personal soldiers immediately presented the brass thousand-mile mirror. This kind of thousand-mile mirror was not produced by the Qing Dynasty, and only found in Xiyi and Donghai Town. It was very expensive. However, for the convenience of command, the Qing Dynasty still purchased a batch through various channels.

Wu Liuqi hurriedly pulled out the Qianlijing, and soon his eyes were stung by bees. He suddenly covered the camera with one hand, and his muscles twitched on his face and said, "It's Zhao Zamao who is kissing me!"

Many Qing generals heard that Zhao Zamao was leading the army himself, and each of them was trembling. Zhao Zamao actually led the army himself and we are finished.

At this time, the Ming cavalry had already reached the moat, and the musketeers and archers on the top of the city were aiming at the cavalry and ready to shoot at any time.

For a moment, the Qing army on the city looked heavy and serious, and the soldiers standing all over the city walls were silent. At this time, the Ming cavalry who rushed to the city shouted loudly: "Listen to the Qing army in the city, and let your guard Wu Liuqi speak on the order of my General Zhao!"

Wu Liuqi frowned. Although he was once a member of the Zhejiang Group, he had no friendship with Zhao Ming and did not even know him.

"I am Wu Liuqi, why did General Zhao offend my border?" Wu Liuqi poked out half of his body from the city wall.

The cavalry under the city immediately shouted: "General Wu, General Wu, the general is thinking of many soldiers in the city. It turns out that they are brothers from Zhejiang Army. They can't bear to suffer the consequences of their lives and their comrades. They advise you to consider the brothers in the city. Anyway, my general will not blame you for your past crimes. My general's reputation is well known to everyone in the world. A small Taizhou cannot stop my general. Now, my general asks me to ask, the brothers in the city will open the city to surrender, wash away the previous crimes, and build a joint achievement. They still have to resist stubbornly, go all the way to the dark, and insist on seeking death!"

Wu Liuqi's muscles twitched. When he saw the Qing soldiers beside him, he unconsciously put down the muskets and bows aimed at the Ming cavalry, and sneered: "Hmph, Zhao Zamao looks at him too highly and thinks that just by calling out a name, he can scare me to surrender. It's really a delusion. Archers and musketeers, shoot me randomly. I want to see how many methods Zhao Zamao has."

After Wu Liuqi finished speaking, he saw the soldiers hesitating and immediately roared, "Cheep me!"
