Chapter 168 9 River Blood
Chapter 168 Jiujiang Blood ([-])
Ning Yu led the army north to Jiujiang, marching mightily along the way, and the news naturally couldn't be hidden from the Qing army.Many Qing soldiers rode on horseback to send news to Jiujiang. Although the news had become unreal when it reached the ears of the generals, it was still valuable intelligence information.
Yongjina did not attack Jiujiang, but just besieged outside Jiujiang City. After receiving the news that Ning Yu went north, although his expression was not obvious, he felt a little pressure in his heart. It was really because Ning Yu Yu's reputation is too great!
Ning Yu's name is now well known throughout Huguang Jiangnan. Some people compare Ning Yu to Zhou Lang of the Three Kingdoms, who is young and handsome, and is fascinated by soldiers. Some people compare Ning Yu to a man-eating demon king who can stop children night cry.
But no matter what the folks say, it's just a sneering rumor.The problem is that since the beginning of the Han army, the Qing army has fought quite a few battles with Ning Yu. No matter how famous the famous generals were before, they have all fallen in Ning Yu's hands, and at least they were defeated and captured. At worst, the whole army will be wiped out.
Now that Fu Erdan is deeply trapped in Huguang, it is difficult to get out for a while, and the Qing army in the entire east is only left with the [-] troops, but they are going to face the [-] Fu Han army, which makes Yongjina feel a little panicked.
But since he is a child of the Eight Banners and a general of Jiangning, he should be loyal to the imperial court. But after enjoying the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River for so many years, and the family just took in a concubine, it would be a pity to go like this.At this time, Yongjina secretly planned to retreat, but he was a little afraid of Kangxi's will coming.
In the early October of the 60th year of Kangxi, continuous rain covered the whole of Huguang and Jiangnan. In such a humid and cold environment, the intensity of the fighting between the two sides increased a lot.From Yunxian to Pingjingguan, and then to Xianning, there are battlefields between the Qing army and the Fuhan army everywhere, and the losses of both sides are also increasing day by day.
Yongjina's [-] troops had already withdrawn from Jiujiang, but they didn't withdraw too far. They chose to cross the Yangtze River and stationed the army at the mouth of the lake, which was only separated from Jiujiang by a river.
Ning Yu also led his troops to Jiujiang and joined the Third Division and the Second Defense Division originally stationed in Jiujiang. It was a joy to meet Cheng Ming, Cheng Zhien, Yue Lingfeng and others.In addition, the navy originally organized by Ning Yu is also in Jiujiang, but there are not many ships, and the sixth member of the Ning family is the admiral of the navy.
However, Ning Yu was not stationed in the city, but on Qingshiling on the west bank outside the city. The terrain is not dangerous, but it is enough to station the 2 horses. In front of the tent stood a large banner of going south to the Dudu's Mansion, with the word Ning written on it, drooping in the rain, looking a little weak.
"Look at this, God really gave the Qing army face."
Ning Yu took off the cowhide boots on his feet and put them on the brazier to roast, making a sizzling sound, shaking them from time to time to shake out the water inside.
"The rain may last for half a month. The road is slippery and difficult to walk. I'm afraid it will be difficult to cross the river to attack Yongjina." Cheng Ming said in a deep voice.
Cheng Ming is the commander of the third division, and the only one who is not the main division commander of the Ning family. He has little relationship with the Cheng family, mainly because he has been following Ning Zhongyuan. He is an old subordinate with outstanding ability and rich experience, so He was promoted to be the commander of the third division earlier.However, he has a taciturn personality and is relatively low-key on weekdays, so he is not well known in the army.
Ning Yu nodded lightly. He was already prepared for this kind of weather, but if he really couldn't keep Yong Jina, he would be a little bit unwilling.
This is a very good opportunity, and it is also a flaw in the current Qing army due to poor communication. If Kangxi knows the situation here, he will definitely choose to attack Pingjingguan immediately, and let Yongjina restrain himself, and At present, only one division is defending Pingjingguan, and the pressure is still very high.
Cheng Zhien had always been Ning Yu's chief of staff earlier, and he knew Ning Yu quite well, but now seeing Ning Yu's frowning, he had guesses in his heart.
"Governor, rainy days are not necessarily a bad thing. If it's sunny, Yong Jina might not dare to station here." Cheng Zhien lightly tapped his finger on the lake mouth, "Since he dares to deploy the army here, it's nothing more than It’s just that I’m a little unwilling in my heart, and I’m thinking of taking advantage of the rainy weather to break the arm with my army. As long as he has this idea, our army will still have a chance.”
Ning Yu was awakened by this thought, mainly because he was anxious and confused. After he calmed down, he felt more and more that his words made sense.
"Then let's fight Yongjina, we can't delay any longer, the soldiers are very fast." Ning Yu stood up, he looked at the pouring rain outside the tent, and sighed leisurely.
The reason why Yongjina will stay in Hukou is not only that he is a little unwilling, but also because he has not received further orders from Kangxi. If Kangxi really comes back to his senses, Yongjina may directly Withdraw to Anqing.At that time, [-] troops will be stationed in Anqing, but it will not be easy to fight.
"Admiral Ning, are there enough boats for our army to cross the river?" Ning Yu turned his head and looked at Ning Zhonghai, who had never spoken. .
Ning Zhonghai glanced at his eldest nephew rather resentfully, isn't it obvious how many ships he owns?However, he didn't dare to trust the military account when discussing matters, so he stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I would like to report to the governor, my navy has four chasing boats, seven double-covered boats, ten express boats, and thirty civilian boats. The proceeds from capturing the warships of the Qing army. If it is just crossing the river, it must be enough."
Hearing this, Ning Yu also felt a little shabby, but he also understood that this was a helpless move at the moment.After all, in a sense, since Taiwan was recovered, Ming Zheng was eliminated, the threat of the Qing Dynasty in the southeast sea area was eliminated, and the focus of coastal defense shifted from the outer sea to the interior, so they did not pay much attention to the development of the navy.
Strictly speaking, there are currently only two regular naval forces in the Qing court, namely the Fujian Navy and the Zhejiang Navy.As for the Green Camp Guangdong Navy in the early years, it was built at the beginning of the third year of Kangxi, and it was abolished in the seventh year of Kangxi.Therefore, in today's Yangtze River Basin, there is also no Qing army navy. It can be said that everyone is equally divided.
The construction of the navy is not strong enough, reflecting that the warships are getting smaller and smaller, and the large warships lose their usefulness and have been abolished one after another, while the small and medium-sized ships represented by chasing boats and double-covered boats have become the main warships of the navy. .Of course, for the current Fuhan army, there is no condition for large-scale development of the navy.
"Since this is the case, our army will cross the river to fight and take the lake mouth in three days' time!"
