Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 66 Surrender
Wang Mingqian jumped off the horse and knelt in front of his father covered in blood.

"I have lost my position in Dinghai, please ask the governor to punish me."

Wang Zhiren sat astride his horse, and looked down at his son condescendingly. His armor was stained with blood, and a string of human heads hung on the saddle. "Where is Zhang Guozhu's dog head?"

"Humble and incompetent, Zhang Guozhu ran away with five hundred archers."

Wang Zhiren dismounted, whipped the whip at his son, and lashed at his son. Wang Mingqian fell to the ground, and he rushed up and lashed his back several times, tearing his blouse.

"Damn."

The other Dinghai camp officers who arrived all knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word loudly.

Wang Zhiren stopped after whipping Wang Mingqian twenty times.

"Come here, take this incompetent guy down, remove him on the spot, and put him in custody pending trial."

Qian Sule and others arrived and pleaded for Wang Mingqian.

"Although General Wang made a mistake, he redeemed his merits and tried his best to make up for it. Today, he also defeated Zhang Guozhu and saved Yincheng."

"Duke Qian doesn't need to plead for this bastard. His Highness Jian Guo made an exception for my face and gave him the title of Dinghai Cucumber General and the title of Deputy Commander. He was asked to lead a battalion and stay in Dinghai City. I told you to be careful. But this bastard entered Zhang Guozhu's barracks alone, and was arrested directly, and then tricked Dinghai City away. He died a hundred times!"

"My lord, General Wang also fought desperately today, not only defeating Thief Zhang, but also recovering Dinghai City."

In front of everyone, Wang Zhiren dealt with Wang Mingqian very harshly, whipping him, dismissing him from office, and imprisoning him.He was also very strict with other officers in the original sea camp, and ordered them all to be locked up.

But he was very polite to those officers under Zhang Guozhu's defection.

Even the poor man who was captured among the thousands of people left behind when Zhang Guozhu escaped before was very polite.

"Zhang Guozhu has already fled to Zhoushan, so he has nowhere to go to rely on Huang Binqing."

"Have you found any traces of the dynasty's ancestors?"

After a brief discussion, Wang Zhiren quickly led his troops back to Dinghai to garrison the gate of Ningbo to prevent Huang Binqing from coming.

Qian Sule still guards Ningbo Yincheng. Before Wang Zhiren left, he deliberately locked his son Wang Mingqian and Dinghaiying officers in Yincheng, and asked Qian Sule to help guard them and wait for Lu Jianguo's punishment to show his impartiality.

The 2000 people who defected under Zhang Guozhu's subordinates, as well as more than a thousand soldiers who were captured in the palace, Wang Zhiren also left 2000 people for Qian Sule, and asked him to take charge of the first management, while he himself took the people from the Dinghai camp and the thousand defected soldiers. take away.

The two battalions under his command immediately became four thousand.

By the way, Zhang Guozhu is also a ruthless character. When he saw Wang Zhiren arriving at a critical moment, he immediately ran away. He was chased by Wang Mingqian, and he left the thousand-odd people behind, only taking his servants and five hundred archers to run away. road.

He ran non-stop to Dinghai, didn't enter the city, ran directly to the pier, got on his own boat, and took the people who stayed behind to go out to sea.

The resoluteness and speed of this escape, even Wang Mingqian did not catch up with him, and he could only watch them sail out to sea.

When Wang Zhiren led his troops into Dinghai to defend the base camp again, the scouts brought back a group of people.

But it was Wang Chaoxian who escaped from the sea desperately.

Wang Chao escaped from Huang Binqing's jaws with great difficulty. He wanted to go back to Chongming, but he thought that Huang Binqing had plotted him so badly. Now that he had no one to ask for, he didn't have any capital to go back to Chongming. If Huang Binqing chased him again along the way, then Little life is at stake.

All in all, it is better to go to Lu Jianguo's side, as long as he escapes, at least Huang Binqing will not be harmed.

At this time, he didn't care that he was planning to attack Ning Shao in partnership with Huang Binqing.

In extreme embarrassment, he explained his identity to the patrolling Zhejiang soldiers and asked them to bring him to see Wang Zhiren.

As soon as they met, Wang Chaoxian didn't care about the embarrassment of throwing his helmet and armor at this time, and took the initiative to explain the situation in detail.

"Chen Wu and Huang Binqing are both traitors with evil intentions. I originally wanted to go south to Guangdong and Guangxi, but when I passed by, I sent someone to write to Huang Binqing to persuade him. Ambush me at sea..."

Wang Zhiren looked at this guy and didn't believe a word he said.

However, she still comforted him politely, even took off her clothes and put them on for him, and asked someone to prepare meals for them.

After they were settled first, he immediately summoned his subordinates to inquire about the situation.

With the gathering of information, Wang Zhiren basically understood what happened.

The dynasty first merged with Huang Binqing, or Huang Binqing attacked and annexed the ancestors of the dynasty, and the dynasty suffered a big loss first.

It's not uncommon, these days, anyone can be an enemy, and allies can never be reliable.

What's more, Huang Binqing, he knows this evil neighbor quite well, so it's not surprising that he can do such a thing.

Hearing that Wang Chaoxian had more than [-] troops, including [-] white-armed soldiers from Sichuan, who almost surrendered at sea without a fight, and all of them fell into Huang Binqing's hands, Wang Zhiren frowned.

It's cool to watch the dog eat dog thing, but Huang Binqing's strength has greatly increased this time. If Zhang Guozhu is accepted again, his appetite will increase greatly, and he will come to snatch Dinghai or even try to snatch Ning Shao.

"Why don't we take advantage of Huang Binqing's first troops in the Xinna Dynasty, and we take the initiative to attack Zhoushan and catch him off guard?"

This proposal moved his heart, but Wang Zhiren shook his head quickly.

"The most urgent task at the moment is to stabilize eastern Zhejiang. Although Chen Wu and Zhang Guozhu have failed, and Huang Binqing swallowed all the troops of the first dynasty, there are still many rebels in Ningshao. We have to clear them."

"As for Zhoushan and Huang Binqing, it's better to wait for attack."

Wang Zhiren hurried back from Cixi and brought back two battalions. However, judging from the performance of the Dinghai battalion this time, he knew that after the reorganization, the battalions of the Zhejiang army were still chaotic and weak. How much chance of winning, it is better to digest the results of this battle and re-stabilize the battalions.

Strengthen integration and train hard.

"How to deal with the dynasty first?"

"I don't think this guy has any good intentions. He was just blackmailed by Huang Binqing. Now that he has no soldiers and no power, it's better to just kill him with a knife."

"No, keep this man for now." Wang Zhiren twirled his beard, "His eight thousand white soldiers are now being annexed by Huang Binqing, but it is not easy for Huang Binqing to chew up these eight thousand white soldiers. We keep the dynasty. First, it might be of great use when we attack Huang Binqing."

"Besides, he is also one of the Eight Commanders who supported King Yiyang, and he is also the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi appointed by King Yiyang. If he voluntarily switches to His Royal Highness Lu Jianguo at this time, it will have a great impact."

"Send a team of soldiers and send him to His Royal Highness Lu Jianguo."

······
Zhoushan on the sea.

Zhang Guozhu drifted on the sea with more than a thousand defeated soldiers. He wanted to go to Zhoushan to vote for Huang Binqing, but he met several Chaoxian subordinates at sea. I heard that Huang Binqing hacked Chaoxian without saying a word and swallowed tens of thousands of him. First of all, he fell into the sea and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, so he was shocked.

"Damn Huang Binqing, he's really fucking ruthless!"

"We can't vote for him, otherwise, wouldn't it be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?"

All the confidantes were very afraid of Huang Binqing. This kind of ruthless person will definitely end badly if he goes now.

Zhang Guozhu was also very embarrassed. He wanted to take advantage of the infighting among the former Huang Binqing of the Chen Wu Dynasty, so that he could quietly grab the territory to expand his strength, so that he could ask Yiyang King for an earl commander or something.

But who would have thought that they would lose so quickly.

"I don't think we can stay in Zhejiang anymore, why don't we go to Fujian or Guangdong?" one person said.

"Fujian is the territory of the Zheng family, and we have no future if we go there. What's more, we have to pass through Huang Binqing's territory when we go south, so we may not be able to get there."

"Then what should we do? We just robbed Dinghai and then fought Ningbo. We can't vote for King Lu or Wang Zhiren, right?"

"We just arrested Wang Zhiren's son, are we courting death by casting him?"

"Then why don't you go back to Chongming?"

Zhang Guozhu shook his head, "The Yiyang King is also useless. You see, the Chen Wu Dynasty first went south, but it was wiped out in two or three times. What do you think he has a future?" He gritted his teeth, "In my opinion, it's better to go to Hangzhou to vote for the Jurchens."

"But we didn't vote for the Qing army on the Huai River, isn't it too late now?"

"At the beginning, I felt that the Zhu family's spirit was not exhausted, but now I see that it's all over and always thinking about fighting in the nest. There is no chance. Let's hurry up and get rid of it."

"Damn it, there are only a thousand men on hand, and there is no capital to surrender." Several generals said.

Zhang Guozhu didn't panic, "What are you afraid of? Don't we still have ships and soldiers? Let's go north along the coast, and land to grab money and grain when we see an opportunity. It's the strong man. Let's go all the way to Hangzhou and get the Are you still afraid that you won’t be able to gather 2 or [-] horses?”

"It's still a big brother's idea!"

"Okay, that's it, it's settled, Beishang votes!"

The decision has been made, and I will not go to Zhoushan now, but turn around and sail north.

When Wang Zhiren was reorganizing the Dinghai battalion, Huang Binqing was also proudly counting his spoils on Zhoushan Island. There were [-] white-armed soldiers from the first dynasty, thousands of craftsmen and boatmen, and hundreds of boats. The seal of the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi fell into his hands.

So Huang Binqing directly added an official to himself very bluntly, the Zuo Dudu of the Ming Dynasty, the Prince Taishi, Su Jingbo, and Shuilu Guanyi recruited the Chief Military Officer, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Military Affairs and Admiral of Food and Pay.

Since he was named the governor, he did not stop doing one thing, and simply named his two younger brothers as commander-in-chief, his two sons and nephews, and several generals under his command, all as deputy commanders-in-chief and generals.

Integrate more than 2 soldiers and horses under his command and expand them into five armies, divided into five armies, front, rear, left, middle, and right.

Each army has [-] regular soldiers, and each is divided into five battalions, each battalion has [-] soldiers, and the officers of each battalion are awarded guerrilla generals.

Huang Binqing directly built a mansion on the island, and put up signs such as Zuo Dudu's Mansion, Shuilu Guanyi Recruiting General Soldier Officer Xingyuan, and Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Xingyuan.

"Report!"

"Uncle, Chen Wu Cixi was defeated, he was beheaded by King Lu and Wang Zhiren, and his ministry was annexed."

"Also Zhang Guozhu attacked Ningbo Yincheng after seizing the sea, his subordinates mutinied, Wang Zhiren turned back and killed him, he was defeated, fled into the sea, and disappeared."

Huang Binqing, who was originally complacent, was stunned when he heard the words.

Huang Binqing, nicknamed Tiger Crazy, sighed after a long time, "This Chen Wu is really an incompetent general who exhausted the three armies, and this Zhang Guozhu is also an idiot."

"Uncle, what should we do now, are we going to send troops to attack Dinghai?"

Huang Binqing tilted her head and sneered a few times, "Don't worry, Chen Wu is dead and Zhang Guozhu is defeated. If that's the case, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian will also be held by someone else."

Huang Binqing added another official to himself, and now it is the land and water officials who recruit the general officer, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, and the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

"Send a boat to search for Zhang Guozhu and his subordinates on the sea and along the coast. After finding them, chop off the head of the defeated soldier and bring his subordinates back to Zhoushan."

"Remember to search for another dynasty first, if you want to see people, if you want to see people, if you want to see corpses."
