Chapter 327 Fight if you don't agree
Taiwan Prefecture should be called Chengtian Prefecture now. After Zheng Chenggong expelled the Netherlands to recover Taiwan, he set up Chengtian Prefecture on Taiwan, also known as Dongdu, and set up two counties under Chengtian Prefecture, namely Tianxing County and Wannian County. , to show anti-Qing meaning.

Later, in the 22nd year of Kangxi, after Taiwan was conquered by the Qing government, Chengtian Mansion was restructured into Taiwan Mansion, which belonged to the Chief Minister of Fujian Province.Of course, this inscription has been completely destroyed by the Ming army, and the Taiwan government has been called Chengtian government again.

The original Taiwan government office has now been changed into the Zhongxing Palace. Zhu Yigui is quite frugal on weekdays, so he once ordered some rare items in the government office to be moved out. Now the entire palace looks very clean and solemn.

But today, the backyard of the Wang Mansion seemed much more lively. Dozens of soldiers were standing in the backyard holding shotguns, and there were many one-person-high targets in front of them, as if they were practicing.

Wearing a bright yellow Daming python robe, Zhu Yigui sat in a pergola in the courtyard, with neither joy nor sadness on his face, surrounded by a crowd of people, quietly watching the sergeants drill.

"Boom-boom-"

After bursts of gunfire, thick white smoke rose up, accompanied by a strong smell of gunpowder smoke, turning the entire backyard into a battlefield.

Everyone watched intently, and as the thick smoke gradually dissipated, they found that many black holes had appeared on the targets in front of them, and some of the black holes had completely pierced through the targets, leaving thick black lines on the wall behind them. the mark of

"General Huang, General Yang, do you think this musket is stronger or weaker than the musket of the Fuhan Army?"

Zhu Yigui asked unhurriedly, but his eyes never left the target. He seemed to have made up his mind.

Standing on the side were two rough-looking men, one of whom was named Huang Dian, who was Zhu Yigui's great hero when he started his family. It was with the support of 15 people including Huang Dian, Yan Zijing, Li Yong, and Wu Wai that Zhu Yigui decided to revolt. Moreover, he brought more than 200 people to find Zhu Yigui and added Zhu Yigui's yellow robe, so he is currently ranked under Zhu Yigui.

Another person named Yang Taili, this person is even more powerful, even Emperor Kangxi at that time knew his name, because he did a big thing, that is, after Zhu Yigui raised the army, Ouyang Kai, the general soldier of Taiwan, went on the rampage and was unpopular. At that time, Yang Taili, the general manager, was deeply dissatisfied, so he attacked and assassinated Ouyang Kai from behind, and then took the army to defect to Zhu Yigui.

Since both of them had made great achievements, they were cited by Zhu Yigui as right-hand men and became high-level leaders of the Ming army, and each of them also had a group of descendants, so what these two said was more important to Zhu Yigui.

"Your Majesty, the last general thinks that if compared with the muskets of the Fu Han army, it may be worse. But compared with the shotguns of the Qing army, it is far superior."

Yang Taili's personality is relatively honest, and the assassination that day was unbearable, but in daily life, Yang Taili appears to be relatively simple and honest, so he is unwilling to say something against his will.

But just as Yang Taili finished speaking, Huang Dian who was at the side ignored Zhu Yigui, and immediately became furious: "General Yang's words are too arousing to other people's ambitions, and destroy their own prestige. How come the ones you bought are not as good as the Fu Han Army?"

Yang Taili sighed, and explained patiently: "In the past, I also heard spies say that when the Fuhan army fired, they didn't need to light the match, but fired with flint. This alone is much better than my matchlock gun. The accuracy and stability of the shotgun are far inferior."

Huang Dian was still a little dissatisfied, and when he was about to refute, he saw Zhu Yigui standing up and sighing softly, "Don't quarrel, strong or not is not a comparison of muskets. Gu has already got it." The news is that Ning Yu ascended the throne in Jiangning, and I thought that sooner or later, we would meet the Fuhan army head-on, and maybe this day would come very early.”

Zhu Yigui also came from a powerful local family. He is chivalrous and hospitable, unrestrained and talkative. When he was not in trouble, he often made friends with heroes of the world. Whenever a guest came, he would slaughter ducks and cook wine, talk about state affairs and political affairs, or hold great discussions. Or sad and sigh, so this person's demeanor has a feeling of raining Song Jiang in time, and his understanding of human nature is very unique.

Not long after the incident, Zhu Yigui used the help of his shadow to eradicate Du Junying and his son who were local tyrants, and cleaned the interior. However, instead of thanking the Fuhan Army, he even had a lot of feelings for the Fuhan Army in his heart. Be on guard, he is an ambitious person, so he is naturally unwilling to become a courtier of Ning Chu in the future.

After hearing Zhu Yigui's words, Yang Taili and Huang Highness nodded subconsciously. The two of them also thought the same way. It is impossible to make them bow their heads and surrender.

"Send an order to Yan Zijing and Li Yong to guard the main roads and never let the Fuhan army pass through Fujian. If they dare to attack, they will fight. I want to see what the Fuhan army is like."

I have to say that Liu Ruhan and Zhu Yigui can be regarded as top talents in this era, but after all, they are different from Ning Yu. Their knowledge and thinking have always stayed at the level of rebellion and sitting on the world. What is Ning Yu doing now?

After all, Liu Ruhan was under the nose of Huguang, squeezed by both the Fuhan army and the Qing army, and did not dare to turn against Ning Yu, but for Zhu Yigui who was far away in Taiwan, the Fuhan army was still blinded in his eyes. A layer of veil made it difficult to see what was hidden inside, so he wanted to touch it, at least to see the true strength of the Fuhan Army.
.
But the problem is, Zhu Yigui never had a chance to see it.

On the sixth day of April, under the cover of night, the third division led by Cheng Ming attacked the Ming army's position. A whole battalion of grenadiers acted as sharp knives. A big opening was torn open in the position, and a steady stream of soldiers of the Fuhan Army rushed in from the opening and launched a pursuit of the Ming army.

"Boom--"

The sound of cannons kept ringing, and the soldiers of the Fuhan army all over the mountains and plains charged forward with bayonets. As early as after the first round of volleys, the formation of the Ming army had already collapsed. Although their shotguns were still advanced, their training speed was low. Quite low, this is also because of the evil consequences of the rapid expansion of the Ming army's power.

Because of this, after the complete collapse of the Ming army, one can often see a company of Fuhan soldiers forcing a large number of Ming troops to surrender like driving cattle and horses. They lie on the ground, not daring to make a single movement , the arrogance in my heart was completely knocked down.

In the previous battle against the Qing army, they also defeated the Qing army in this way, and they also chased the Qing army in this way, but now they feel the same powerlessness in front of the Han army.

For this battle, Cheng Ming had already issued an order that no prisoners would be allowed to be killed, and those who violated the military law would be severely punished, because this order was passed from Nanjing, and the meaning above was very simple. They, recruit them, but they can't indiscriminately harm them, after all, they are also part of the Anti-Qing Dynasty.

During this battle, Cheng Ming was ordered by Ning Yu to become the commander-in-chief of the army, commanding the first division, third division and fourth division. After several days of fighting from three different directions, he failed. The main force of the Ming army was completely defeated, and as many as 2 people were captured.

A few days later, the army of the first division had captured Ninghua, and the third division, under the leadership of Cheng Ming, charged all the way to Quanzhou Prefecture and surrounded Quanzhou. There were less than 5000 people left, struggling hard under the leadership of Li Yong.

Yan Zijing, as the commander-in-chief of Fujian, did not perform his due duties. On the first day when the Fuhan Army launched an assault, he took some remnants of defeated soldiers and retreated towards the rear. After retreating to Quanzhou, he was hurriedly driven away. Zhu Yigui who came here had his head chopped off with a knife and hung on the flagpole.

On the contrary, Li Yong, as the deputy commander, led the people to resist day by day. Although he could not escape the fate of being defeated, he stopped the collapse of the battle and gave Zhu Yigui a place to stay, so that he would not be completely driven into the sea go.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

The lights in the Fuhan barracks were brightly lit. At this time, an award ceremony had already been held. Many soldiers who had achieved military exploits in this battle were equipped with newly released medals, and the related welfare benefits will be implemented one by one later. .When they touched the exquisite medal on their chests, they showed proud smiles on their faces, while more soldiers looked at these people with envious eyes.

"Hey, damn it, the Qing army can't stand fighting, and the Ming army is not doing well. This time, 3 of us defeated 6 of them in seven or eight days, and many of them didn't get medals. , his eyes are so red that he is going to die."

"No, my elder brother is still extremely brave. He led his team alone and smashed half a battalion of the Ming army! More than a dozen people chased more than 100 people and ran!"

The soldiers were gulping down the wine, feeling a little complacent at the moment, and let go of their nonsense, but when they were nonsense, those achievements were usually true, because bragging in the camp would be severely punished by the superiors of.

An older soldier shook his head. People in the army called him Old Chai. He had been a member of the Fuhan Army for a long time. His shoulder was obviously different from that of ordinary soldiers. It was a new non-commissioned officer rank.It seems that although he is only a third-rank sergeant, he is extremely rare in the battalion. Some people even jokingly say that there are many more battalion commanders in this barracks than sergeants, so everyone respects him more.

"Brothers, although the Ming army is not resistant to fighting, their discipline and weapons are actually much better than the Qing army. We must not take it lightly when we go to the battlefield!"

As soon as this remark came out, many people nodded in agreement. Some things can be seen for real. It is not a good thing to belittle the enemy blindly. Some people wondered: "Old Chai, I heard that you, Master Chiefs, can submit it directly to the Privy Council." Reported after the war, is it true or false?"

Old Chai puffed up his chest, showing a little bit of color on his face. This right is not small. To a certain extent, only their sergeants have it. You must know that even the battalion commander cannot directly Post-war report to the Privy Council.

The content of this report is naturally not about war command, but mainly related to the treatment of soldiers, such as daily diet and whether there are problems with post-war honors and awards, etc., can be written on it through special channels , passed to the Privy Council to ensure the treatment of soldiers.

This system was specially set up by Ning Yu for the Master Chief. Although they are not commanding talents, they are the backbone of the army. Therefore, it is very appropriate for them to serve as a bridge between the Privy Council and the soldiers, at least to ensure the morale of the army. It can be stable and there will be no situation of deception.

Of course, the officers would not be happy to see the Master Chief system, but under Ning Yu's forced order, the system was still passed, which also led to Ning Yu's status in the army becoming supreme.

While the soldiers were celebrating and cheering, a few mysterious guests also came to the large tent of the Fuhan Army.

"Want to talk? No problem!"
