Chapter 194: Battle of Fatty Water Shanzhai Edition

After the army under Jun was repaired in Beihai City for a night, except for a small group of troops to defend the city, the army began to gather in the mist of the morning light and continued to advance towards Nanning Prefecture.

Zhu Jun sat in the bumpy carriage and kept sending orders to divide his troops to occupy the surrounding counties and counties. Seven or eight thousand households each had a thousand men and horses. Their mission was to quickly occupy the county government while the enemy had not responded. If the other party was prepared, they would temporarily restrain themselves outside the city to prevent the counties and counties in Guangxi from rushing to Nanning to help.

The central army continued to advance along the rugged path between the mountain streams, and scouts kept coming back to report the location of the suicide camp. Zhu Jun frowned. According to the scout's return, the suicide camp seemed to be too light. Generally, the distance between the vanguard and the central army would not exceed fifty miles, so that they could echo each other and support each other. However, the suicide camp has advanced north day and night, first arrived at the territory of Qinzhou, and now it has followed the Qinjiang River to north and arrived in Lingshan County.

"It's too risky!" Zhu Jun's brows did not spread. When I was strong and the enemy was weak, he would rather fight in a safe way. Any kind of adventure would be accompanied by danger. Alas, Zhu Jun leaned on the cushion in the car, half-squinted his eyes. Among the commanders of the four continental army, Li Xiao was good at mountains, Mu Jianming was familiar with firearms, and Zhang Youde was proper and steady. The above three were all talents of generals. With time, he would definitely stand alone. Only Wang Qiu was an alien. Every time he fought, he was afraid of death and was called a real powerful general. However, if someone was too fierce, it didn't seem to be a good sign.

Zhu Jun guessed correctly. Now the Pioneer Camp has arrived at the upper reaches of Qinjiang, only ten miles away from Lingshan County. After capturing Lingshan County, and then advancing northwest, you can reach the city of Nanning.

Wang Qiu began to order. The soldiers borrowed bamboo rafts from the fishermen along the coast, and the boats were busy until noon. On the other side of the Qin River, on the far horizon, a shocking sound of horse hooves suddenly came. Hundreds of Qing army knights rushed to the other side, and then the drums and roars sounded, and a black and gray army appeared behind the knights. Wang Qiu couldn't help but frowned, and the bloody scar became even redder.

"Sir, a team of Qing soldiers appeared on the other side, with at least seven or eight thousand people." A scout on guard along the coast came to report.

"I understand..." Wang Qiu nodded, and he also saw that on the turbulent Qin River, two armies were constantly watching the enemy on the other side.

"Sir, have we given up crossing the river?" A hundred households hurriedly ran over and asked.

Wang Qiuheng glared at him: "Get out!"

Baihu muttered and ordered the raft to be sent. The boat stopped going into the water. His question was too lacking. If it were someone in another camp, someone would have used him as a joke. However, the Death Camp was different. The Death Camp was composed entirely of desperate people. They were the least afraid of death in the Ming army, and they were the most determined and persistent soldiers in their faith. With one order, the Death Camp could charge against the sword mountain, the sea of ​​fire, and ten times the enemy ten times the hundred times the time it took. Baihu asked this question, but what if a big river blocked it? As long as you reach the other side, a tiger would still enter the flock of sheep, kill one enough, kill two enough to earn one.

Wang Qiu had a calm eyebrows, hanging around his waist. The hilt of the knife was held hard by him, and his eyes showed a fierce light. Finally, he shook his head. No! The enemy was on the other side. Crossing the river rashly would only give the enemy a chance to cross the river and intercept the ground. This would be too risky.

Wait! Wang Qiu felt a stone suppressed in his heart. According to his original estimate, the suicide camp would need to arrive in Nanning within two days. At this time, the Qing army suddenly intercepted the river. I don’t know when it would be delayed.

On the opposite side of Qin River, a pair of evil eyes were also looking at the other side. Jihai was a member of the Yellow Banner. He was sent to Guangxi as a general. In the Ming Dynasty, the general was a first-class official. However, now, he was under the jurisdiction of the governor in various provinces. In name, the general was slightly lower than that of the admiral. However, this small deviation made the admiral control the military power of the entire province. However, the general became a real decoration. He could only handle the Green Camp. But after all, the Green Camp was a Han army. He nominally controlled the Green Camp. However, most of the Green Camp affairs were handled by Han officers in the middle and lower classes. Although he was in place, he had no real power. He was in charge of the Green Camp. There were always supervisors and supervisors above. There were military affairs below. Jihai was depressed and had to receive some salary every month to spend his days in Nanning.

The opportunity finally came. Admiral Kani led his army westward and marched into Yunnan under the orders of the governor of the three provinces. Then there was news. The army of Sichuan was wiped out. The governor of the three provinces disappeared. The governor of Sichuan was missing. The governor of Sichuan Solotu ran back to Sichuan with thousands of Eight Banners like a dog that was strayed. Then Li Dingguo broke into Sichuan and stationed troops under Chengdu City. Solotu insisted on defending and asked the court for help overnight. On the other side, the fierce battle under Kunming City was not optimistic. Kani and Zhao Fuming surrounded the Ming army in the pursuit of Kunming City with superior forces. However, more than 10,000 Ming troops were defending the mountain back. The Qing army used various methods to capture it.

Kanni is finished. After receiving the battle report, Ji Hai immediately realized the good news. This time he sent troops to Kunming Kanni Sect

The flag soldiers were already half lost. For Qiqihar, such a big defeat was also a worse result for the court. In the eyes of the court, the Eight Banners were only ten thousand, and they were invincible. Kanni led 5,000 Eight Banners to join Zhao Fudi Guanning Army to start a war and lost half of the Eight Banners. In this way, even if the Kunming City was captured, it would be only a condemnation. If the achievements were not made, even if the condemnation of the achievements were not taken, the admiral would not be able to be taken.

Who will be the successor if Kani is not an admiral? Ji Hai was moved. Among the Manchu officers in Guangxi, he was the most qualified. If nothing unexpected happens, he can take over the military power in Guangxi and sit in the admiral's yamen with awesomeness to handle military affairs.

Soon, a piece of news spread to Nanning. The Ming army arrived at Beibu Gulf from water and land, captured the Beihai, and went straight up the river, and was expected to arrive in Nanning in about three to five days.

Ji Hai did not dare to neglect and quickly summoned the generals to discuss. Now that the Ming army is in the southwest, everyone is shy of fear. All the official documents of military affairs are almost related to the Ming army. In the solemn atmosphere, the generals reached a consensus. Now the main force in Guangxi has been transferred to Yunnan by the admiral. Most of the elderly, weak, sick and disabled in the territory. All the troops from the surrounding prefectures and counties should be transferred to Nanning to defend, and the moment they dragged it was a moment.

Ji Hai shook his head. He was more concerned about his career. He had been suppressed for too long. The admiral's throne was determined to win. Since this was the case, he could not resist passively.

However, the Ming army had a huge momentum, with many soldiers and a wide range of generals, and at most, it gathered ten thousand old, weak, sick and disabled people. If they rashly left the city, how could they fight?

At this time, another news came. One thousand Ming army pioneers went north along the Qin River and defeated hundreds of river soldiers under the River Governor who were blocking along the way.

Damn, too much bullying, even a thousand people dared to be arrogant. A thought immediately emerged from Ji Hai's mind. One thousand people? If they defeated him with ten times the force, and then retreated back to Nanning when the army had not arrived, the court asked when the court asked, this general was not afraid to fight and went out of the city to annihilate the enemy's vanguard, but the bandit army was powerful and the general had not preserved his troops, so he returned to Nanning to stand firm. In this way, if this contribution was made, he would not be afraid of someone talking about gossip. It was definitely a good plan to have the best of both worlds.

He did it as soon as possible, Ji Hai did not dare to delay, so he quickly recruited the troops in the city, and even the slaves and servants were all included in the army. He hurried out of the city with a mixed army of 10,000, and advanced towards the Qin River to intercept it.

For example, today, the army in Nanning happened to meet their prey in the Qin River, and a fast river a hundred feet wide blocked them.

The Ming army on the opposite side began to give up crossing the river and prepared to camp, but Ji Hai became anxious. The war he expected was that the two armies would confront each other directly. Then the Qing army with superior forces ate the Ming army vanguard, who was ignorant of the vastness of the world, and retreated without the main force of the Ming army before they arrived.

The implementation of this strategic goal is time. The Ming army on the other side can be delayed and can spend time here, but the Qing army cannot. Therefore, Ji Hai and Wang Qiu are only considering one issue. How can this river not become an obstacle between them and a decisive battle openly?

Ji Hai thought of a 'good idea', and he summoned the deputy general and ordered: "Send an order to retreat ten miles to camp, let the Ming army cross the river, and fight the Ming army tomorrow."

"What... During the Battle of Fat Water, the Former Qin Dynasty also let the Jin army cross the river, and was finally killed by the Jin army and was wiped out. The general would not take any pills, so dare to give such orders?

"Bastard, you know what's wrong. Our army is eager to fight the Ming army. Now the Qin River is blocking each other. If the Ming army confronts each other on the other side, the main force of the Ming army will arrive within one or two days. Let's fight a fart battle. Go and send the order. The entire army retreats ten miles."

When the deputy general heard what the general said, he felt that it made some sense. He saw the general sitting high on the horse, looking fiercely as if he was about to lift a horse whip and slap people. He no longer dared to procrastinate and hurried to pass the order.

The Qing army began to retreat under the command of the flag. Hundreds of cavalry were still walking at the end to cover the infantry. After a moment, the Qing army, which was rushing towards the tide, retreated like a tide, making the Ming army watching the other side stunned.

"Sir, the Qing army has retreated." Someone went over to report to Wang Qiu Chuan.

Wang Qiu nodded. He stood on the platform, constantly observing the movements of the Qing army with a monocular mirror. He did retreat. He did not drag on the mud or lay any ambush. He looked like he was asking you to cross the river.
