Chapter 91 Da Ming Qi is exhausted
At the end of the first month, the weather was very good. The howling north wind disappeared, and only the bright sun was hanging in the sky, making Zheng Zhilong feel warm all over.
The latter was lying on a recliner, lying in the sunlight, and he was lazy.
Jiang Zhe held a battle report in his hand and read clearly: "... On the 22nd, Zuo Guangxian and Xue Dizhong were defeated back to Ziyang. On the 24th, Ma Ke and Bai Guangen were defeated in Yishui. For the sake of Jianlu Ma Army, they chased Baimahe and retreated to Zou County to defend. On the same day, Cao Bianjiao came from Sishui County and brought Qingzhou to Qingzhou to the power of the Dinglai Minjun. The army in charge of the army attacked the Fangshan in the eastern part of Qufu, and then forced the retreat for Jianlu Ma Army...."
"It's not that our army doesn't work hard, it's really impossible to defeat Jianlu." Hong Chengchou said to Wu Changshi helplessly.
Zheng Zhilong's eyes were not opened. If it weren't for the fingers that were popping the armrest of the recliner, Jiang Zhe would have thought Zheng Zhilong had fallen asleep.
"A big show, a big show."
Hong Chengchou is still shameless, so he "actively" sent troops to resolve the siege of Qufu, but his subordinates were not effective and were defeated in every battle. Is there nothing I can do about it?
Cao Bianjiao was even assigned by him to Ningyang to go around a big circle, avoided Qufu, and along Jiufeng Mountain, to Sishui County east of Qufu. After gathering the Qingzhou civil army and Denglai civil army there, on the 24th day, he fought together with the Ma Ke and Bai Guangen armies in the east. How hard it was. But the result was still the word "defeated"!
Looking at the battle reports over the past few days, no one can say that Hong Chengchou is not doing his best, right? Wu Changshi sent impeachments to the capital one after another. With these defeats as a result, it can only be said that the result of "rescue" is not good, and it cannot be said that there is a problem with other people's attitude.
Both sides and vertically defeat the battle.
Those generals told them that it was difficult to win a war against the Tartars. Is it not easy to defeat a war? Even if you defeat a war, you will die.
Jiang Zhe also smiled on his face. It is said that Wu Changshi, who was in the Ming army camp outside the city, cursed all day long, and impeachment memorials were written one after another. But is there a bird used it?
Zhou Yanru took his peace of mind - Zheng Zhilong guaranteed that the Kong family in Qufu was not hindered, why did he guarantee it? Zhou Yanru was very puzzled - he never said anything again, even if he was worried now. But what else could he do except accept it?
Without Zhou Yanru's support, what is Wu Changshi?
"The Ming Dynasty court is so bad. More than 100,000 troops gathered together, but they could only watch 40,000 to 50,000 Tartars rampant. Lieutenant generals are either timid people like rats or harbor evil intentions like me. How many days can this Ming Dynasty last?" Zheng Zhilong said with a sarcastic voice.
"Although Zhao Song was ashamed of Jingkang, there were Grandpa Zong in front, Grandpa Yue, Han Shizhong, Wu brothers, and even Liu Qi and Yang Yizhong, all of whom were used to fighting. Famous generals and brave men emerged. But what about the Ming Dynasty? It was really exhausted." In the end, the people who tried to protect the Ming Dynasty, except for Zheng Chenggong, a guy selling dog meat with a sheep head, were actually the remnants of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong. It was ridiculous to say it.
"Master, this Ming Dynasty is still loyal and kind. General Liu Zhaoji and General Liu led the Huai Shang civil army to the Taizhuang area under the order of Shi Zongxian. It will be as fast as three days and as slow as five days, and you will definitely be able to arrive in Ziyang."
"The director Lu Jiude and Huang Degong also led the troops to Xuzhou."
Liu Zhaoji, a general from the Liao army, was the biggest support for Shi Kefa. The latter had gathered in Huai'an Prefecture. After hearing the news that Qufu was surrounded, he immediately sent the most important general under his command.
It is rare to have a heart that is used incorrectly.
Lu Jiude is also a good eunuch. He knows how to fight and is loyal, and is much better than Gao Qiqian.
Huang Degong and Huang Chuangzi were the only person who was loyal to the Ming Dynasty among the four towns in Jiangbei in later generations. He was the man who came out of the Warriors' camp. Although he had just defeated Zhang Xianzhong, his troops were unable to do anything about the Tartars.
On the plains and wilderness, the current Ming army really cannot do anything to the 40,000 to 50,000 Tartars.
"I'd better continue to be sick." Zheng Zhilong sighed. With his brain, he couldn't think of a way to defeat the Tartars on the other side. He couldn't even attack Jiningzhou. "You go and see Mako, Bai Guangen, Zuo Guangxian and others, and ask them if they want the Tartars." Dai Jiaji's victory in the first battle - the Tartars' heads and the Tartars' heads, there are more than a thousand.
Except for those who paid for the Yanjing, the remaining ones were no less than three or four hundred.
"All exceptions are required?"
"As usual."
Zheng Zhilong had a head in his hand, which was a real military achievement. Wu Changshi's impeachment memorial would not hurt his muscles. If he asked someone to go to the capital for another activity, it would be even more calm. It was just that he was unwilling to throw money into the water. However, the other generals were defeated again and again, and few heads went to work for the job, but they would inevitably have to eat the top.
Jiang Zhe stepped back, Zheng Zhilong turned a blind eye for a long time. Now that the combat power of both sides is seriously unbalanced, it is better for a novice like him to shrink into the city.
So, why did he recover from his illness?
Let's continue to get sick. When the Tartars leave at some point, see if there is any opportunity to take advantage of it. Or when the ice and snow melt, he will take the navy outside the pass and find the Tartars again.
In this way, he not only felt that he was more confident, took the initiative in the battle, and his life was safer, but also felt that the war was simpler and more convenient. Unlike the current battle, he had to consider all aspects and make him feel at ease.
If you treat the battle for the world as an unreserved game, Zheng Zhilong is now a rookie who has just started to work. He has not been familiar with many things, and his power has developed slightly.
Of course, this is not a game. As soon as my eyes closed, Zheng Zhilong saw the scene he had seen in many towns before, and he sat up.
It was then that he led his troops from Jinan Prefecture in the north to Yanzhou Prefecture, which was Lianshan Town in Ningyang. For the first time, he saw what corpses were like. In the past, he only heard people say that, but how could the infectiousness of words be compared to the real picture?
Lianshan Town is a large town on the border of Ningyang. It connects Yanzhou Prefecture and Jinan Prefecture. It is a very prosperous place with thousands of households in the people.
That day he had already received a report from Zhou Yi, but when he walked into Lianshan Town, the person immediately took a breath.
I saw that the shops along the street had been burned down on the wide East-West Gate Road, leaving only charred remains. There were layers of corpses on the ground, and they looked along the avenue without interruption.
The horses were unable to pass, so Zheng Zhilong jumped off the horse and advanced among the pile of corpses. Many blood stains on the corpses had turned into bright red ice. Some women were ciluo all over their bodies, and there was no trace of blood flowing all over the streets, and the ditches on both sides of the road were covered with frozen red.
He didn't know why the people here didn't hide, or that they didn't have time to hide. Then their fate was death.
The inspection department in the town is the place with the most dense corpses. I am afraid that the people can't escape, so they all came here. The dense corpses are so dense that you can't even get out of your feet.
He had lived in his previous life for more than 20 years but had never seen a corpse in a real sense. After coming to this era, he saw many corpses, but when he looked at the corpses that seemed to be everywhere, he was still a little dazed.
So when the Tartars drove the people to attack the meat shield, Zheng Zhilong's spirit was so "normal". The scene in Lianshan Town was not the only scene he saw.
On the way from Ningyang to Ziyang...
So, this is definitely not a game!
If Jiang Zhe was still standing by his side at this time, he would have discovered that Zheng Zhilong, who was still lazy and helpless and decadent just before, was now like a different person, and his whole body was full of evil spirits.
After a while, Zheng Zhilong calmed down, but he sighed and fell into the recliner like he had no bones.
It’s not that he doesn’t hate Jianlu, but he’s not strong enough now.
If he was given a few years, Zheng Zhilong would build hundreds of thousands of troops and his guns and cannons were all in order, would he see if he would sit in the city?
"Master, Zhou Yi is asking for a meeting."
Zheng Zhilong waved his hand, and the close servants who were serving him were still the deaf people who could speak. Seeing Zheng Zhilong waved his hand, he immediately retreated, and after a moment, Zhou Yi strode forward.
"The general saw that the villain was surveillance of Wu Chang for many days. Today, he sent someone to run towards the horse. He captured it in Baimahe and found a letter from that man."
After taking the envelope, Zheng Zhilong was not in a hurry to take it out and see that Wu Changshi's impeachment sent to the capital was his name. And it was the black of black.
Jiang Dejing wrote to him that although the emperor had suppressed all the impeachment, there were already people in the capital's speech to cause trouble. Zheng Zhilong would obviously become one of the targets of the censors' verbal battles, and he would give his originally glorious reputation a layer of black and gray. He would make him think twice.
However, if he had the Dai Jiaji victory, it would be harmless.
Zheng Zhilong had no way to block the way, so he asked someone to secretly monitor Wu Changshi, just thinking about finding an opportunity to hack him. However, he didn't expect that this guy would send someone south.
"It's true." After tearing open the envelope and seeing the content of the letter inside, Zheng Zhilong said with a angrily smile.
Wu Changshi wrote a letter to Jiangnan's friends and complained, revealing a lot of insider information in the army. If this letter arrives in Jiangnan, according to the status of Wu Changshi's boss, many civil and military officials in Ziyang City will have bad names below Hong Chengchou.
The military generals did not work, and the civil servants did not work. This is because the Qiu Bas did not know the righteousness, and the scholars deceived their teachers and destroyed their ancestors.
In fact, it is now February, and it is not far from when the Tartars return to the north. By then, there is no matter in Confucius, Qufu, and this matter will be left alone. At least it will not become the focus of discussion among the world.
But after Wu Changshi made trouble, this letter would really come to Jiangnan, "He is really not enough to make trouble..."
