Chapter 745

There were no few horses in the south, and the soldiers of the Zheng army had ever seen such cavalry attacks.

For a moment, the musketeers went off fire, which caused the front row of musketeers to fire. The projectiles hit the cavalry and were no longer able to do anything. The archers shot indiscriminately, but the arrows could not break through the plate armor on the chests of the Han cavalry.

Seeing that the bows and arrows could not be shot and injured in the Han cavalry, the Zheng soldiers on the front line looked frightened and the morale of the army was in chaos.

At this time, the Han cavalry raised their horse spears and penetrated them into the formation, like a giant hammer that smashed the Zheng army's front to sink, breaking the Zheng army's front.

The cavalrymen of the cavalry raised their horse lances and sharp spear heads, and several Zheng soldiers were serially formed. They were simply cruel and made people scattered. The two battles were fought.

For a time, the Zheng army soldiers were knocked back and many soldiers scattered behind.

At this time, after the horse-slinging cavalry, the light cavalry wielding the sabers chased after him, swung his sword and slashed. As the sword flew, blood splattered.

"Stay!" Zheng Hongkui shouted repeatedly, killing several retreating soldiers in succession, barely stopping the riot.

The Han cavalry entered the formation, and wherever they passed, they had broken limbs and bodies, and the ground was covered with mess.

"Hurry up, restore the formation!" After the cavalry rushed past, the Zheng army generals shouted repeatedly.

At this time, the Zheng soldiers, who were stopped by the officers, hurriedly re-arranged the formation, but before the army was restored, a neat step sound came.

The soldiers of Zheng looked up and saw the Han army musketeers stepping on neat steps, erecting bayonets, pressing against the wall.

"Come on the gun!" The Han general shouted loudly.

The Han soldiers who were advancing raised their muskets.

In an instant, thousands of muskets were flattened in turn, and the muzzle formed a thick black line.

When the Zheng soldiers saw the gun aiming at them, they felt that they were alone, standing under countless guns.

With a "wow" sound, the Zheng army soldiers no longer cared about military orders, and they lost their weapons and fled south.

"Aim!" The Han general roared loudly, "Shoot!"

"Bang bang bang!" The Han army musketeers aimed at the back of Zheng Jun who was fleeing in front and pulled the trigger together.

White smoke filled the front line, and the projectiles roared out. Zheng Jun soldiers were shot in the back, and blood mist rose up, and they screamed and killed on the ground.

"Kill!" The intense horn sounded throughout the field, and the Han soldiers raised their bayonets and roared and covered them up.

Thirty thousand Zheng army soldiers then completely disintegrated. When Zheng Hongkui saw the Han army's military power, he completely lost his mind to save the defeat, pulled the reins of the horse, and fled south with the defeated troops.

This is not a player of the same level at all. Zheng Hongkui never expected that the Han army was so powerful.

He looked at the defeated army, wanted to cry without tears, whipped the horse whip and ran south.

On the hill, Zhao Ming looked at the collapsed Zheng army, the Han army artillery bombarded, the cavalry raided, and then the infantry followed up with the tactic of occupying the battlefield, which worked.

The Han army has been training for a long time and has innovated many tactics. This time, it happened to be an inspection in Fujian.

"The whole army pursued!" Zhao Ming shouted loudly and pulled out his horse and rushed down the hill.

This encounter that took place in Yanping Prefecture, south of Nanping County lasted less than half an hour and ended with the defeat of the Zheng army.

The Han army blocked the enemy and approached Fuzhou.

No one expected that the Zheng army in Fujian would be defeated so quickly and the Han army would come so quickly.

Zheng Hongkui had just fled to Minqing, and before he could even have some hot meals, the Han army had already chased Minqing, so he could only leave the city in panic and flee to Fuzhou.

The north gate of Fuzhou City opened, and Zheng Hongkui led only more than ten cavalry and rushed into the city in panic.

It attracted people on both sides of the street to watch in surprise and then talked about it.

In Fuzhou City, Zheng Hongkui walked and said, "Hurry up, send orders, clean up your family immediately, and prepare to take a boat to sea!"

The family around him couldn't help but exclaim, "What's going on with the Duke?"

Zheng Hongkui had no time to explain or feel in the mood to state his failure. He just shook his head and shouted, "Don't ask so much, if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave."

For a time, Fuzhou City was in chaos, and there were people in the Yanping Palace and the Zheng family's houses. The people rushed around in panic. Their subordinates carried valuable things in large bags, and then all rushed out of Fuzhou City.

Seeing this, the gentry, merchants and people in the city knew that they had suffered a defeat and fled with them.

Zheng Hongkui returned to Fuzhou, and within half a day, he led himself and Zheng Chenggong's family to the sea on a warship and went out in panic.

Half a month, in just half a month, the Han army entered Fuzhou from Xianxia Pass.

The rapid advance of the army was much faster than Zheng Zhilong's visit to the Qing Dynasty and the Qing army occupied Fujian.

When the Han army vanguard appeared outside Fuzhou City, the Zheng army in Fuzhou City had evacuated and the city was in chaos.

When Zhao Ming entered the city, he immediately asked someone to post a notice on the people's reunion and sent troops to patrol. All the defeated soldiers and gangsters who took the opportunity to cause trouble will be executed.

The Han army was decisive and harshly suppressed the rioters in the city, as well as the gangsters who took advantage of the chaos to rob and insult women, which quickly restored peace to Fuzhou City, which surprised the gentry and people in the city.

When the city fell, the people in the city were inevitably suffering from war. When the Qing army entered Fuzhou, the people in the city suffered from great disaster.

The trembling people in the city were surprised to see that the Han army not only did not rob, but instead proposed to relieve the people and arrest the riot soldiers.

After all, there was news that the Longwu court had seized the Han trading company. Everyone thought the Han Congress was revenge, but they did not expect the Han army to be so strict.

At this moment, Zhao Ming entered the city and was immediately welcomed by the people and gentry. In order to thank the Han army for its strict military discipline, the top figures who had not escaped from Fuzhou came to pay their respects, prepared wine and meat to reward the army.

Zhao Ming comforted the gentry and the people, telling them that the war was over soon, and explained that this was a war between the Han Dynasty and the Longwu court and the Zheng family, and would not affect the people, so that everyone would perform their own duties and shops would be open as usual.

Afterwards, Zhao Ming asked his soldiers to surround the Yanping Palace and did not allow soldiers to enter. However, he did not show any mercy on the city's treasury and the Zheng family's property and searched them all.

Soon, the Han army found countless property in the city. Gu Yanwu, who was responsible for the inventory, used his soldiers and loaded hundreds of cars before he could basically complete the load.

Among them, there are mainly silver, followed by utensils, antiques, treasures, and rare classics, calligraphy and paintings. The value is immeasurable and cannot be calculated with money.

In recent years, the Han Dynasty has earned a lot of money through maritime trade. Zheng Chenggong also attached great importance to maritime trade and established the Nanyang Company, which has also accumulated a lot of wealth.

This time, the property found in Fuzhou alone was enough to provide the Han army with the use of Fujian.

After taking Fuzhou, Zhao Ming's army did not stop. After he hurriedly arranged related affairs in the city, he led the army to rush to Zhangzhou and Quanzhou.

However, the army arrived, and the Zheng army in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou had already evacuated and went to sea to occupy Xiamen when they heard the Han army coming.
