Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 124 Go, Dedicate to King Yanping! (Please subscribe!)

After the siege of Zhangzhou, the southern Fujian battlefield gradually became silent.

Behind the silence, new large-scale battles are often brewing.

"Master Dutong, don't fight like a fool!"

In the Yamen of Quanzhou City, which was looted by Zheng Kezang, Wan Zhengse advised Fuzhou General Hu Qiyuan not to fight Zheng Kezang in the field.

Wan Zhengse knew the combat effectiveness of the guards clearly, field battle was no different from suicide.

He thought he had reached a tacit understanding with Zheng Kezang after great difficulty, and formed a situation where he would not harass Zheng Kezang in Quanzhou, and Zheng Kezang would not bother him. As a result, when the Second Tartars of Hu Qiyuan and Han Eight Banners came, they forced him to send troops , really mad!
As a first-class loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, he couldn't watch the second master of the Eight Banners go to die.

For this reason, he had to fool Hu Qiyuan, all for the Qing Dynasty!
"Since I served as the admiral of the land route, I have found that the combat power of the green battalion is low. Eight out of ten cannot shoot bows. Half of them have never practiced shooting. They will swarm and shoot randomly without waiting for the thieves to approach."

"Your official estimates that ten thousand Green Battalions are not as good as one thousand Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers!" Wan Zhengse came to the conclusion that this lie was a little too much, but it didn't affect Hu Qiyuan's delighted hearing.

"Hahaha, Admiral Wan might as well be so modest. I've heard that this hypocritical sea bandit is most afraid of you. They say that there are raging soldiers and a nest of raging soldiers. With you, it doesn't matter even if the green battalion soldiers are weak!" Hu Qiyuan didn't Being blown to the point where he lost his judgment, Wan Zhengse was about to send troops to fight.

Wan Zhengse didn't answer, but pretended to have an idea anyway: "Lord Dutong, I have a plan!"

Hu Qiyuan was very interested, "Admiral Wan, plan to make sure?"

"I suggest focusing on siege and supplementing offense, that is, instead of blindly attacking Zhangzhou, we should do a good job of defense and let the pirates attack us." Wan Zhengse said seriously.

It sounds reasonable, but Hu Qiyuan has doubts: "Admiral Wan, isn't this just standing still?"

"Combined with the report of the grain storage situation in the city by the officials who escaped from Zhangzhou City, I conclude that there will be no food in Zhangzhou City within five months at least, and seven or eight months at most. .”

"Attack is supplemented, which means not to defend. When the pirates come to pounce, I can take the initiative to attack in order to kill the enemy's pirates on land to the greatest extent. I will use defense and counterattack." Wan Zhengse shook his head, Looks like a defensive master.

"Besides, there are many mountains in Zhangzhou. If we attack rashly, we will be easily ambushed." Wan Zhengse tried his best to fool him. For the peace of Zhangzhou, he fought hard!

However, Hu Qiyuan brought [-] Han Eight Banners and [-] Fuzhou Lvying, not to be a coward with Wan Zhengse, but to make meritorious service.

Therefore, no matter what Wan Zhengse said, Hu Qiyuan was determined to attack.

"A mere sea bandit, I have 1 soldiers from Fujian in the Qing Dynasty, and no matter how many sea bandits there are, there are only [-]. Lord Wan, you don't have anything to do with pirates, do you?" Save face.

Speaking of the latter, Wan Zhengshen's complexion is getting worse and worse, the first rank of the official ranks crushes people, not to mention that the Eight Banners are already superior.

He knew that he would have to face Zheng Kezang sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

How good is this!

How about killing Hu Qiyuan on the way to the army?

The idea was tempting, but Wan Zhengse didn't dare.

There was no other way, Wan Zhengse could only sigh again and again, watching Hu Qiyuan organize an army to attack Zhangzhou Mansion.

He didn't dare to stop him, lest he be wronged and colluded with pirates.

To be honest, his way of thinking is a natural match with Nalan Mingzhu, which is a pity.

In the Quanzhou camp, the green battalion shotgunners, sword and shield fighters, and spearmen, and the three main arms of the Fujian green battalion are practicing intensively.

The [-] army is orderly. In the Qing Dynasty, there were elite soldiers one by one. They sharpened their guns before the battle, and they were unhappy. Didn't Wan Zhengse say that the green battalion soldiers were useless?

He, Hu Qiyuan, came to train in person, so now Wan Zhengse has nothing to say.

Hu Qiyuan is in his [-]s, with unlimited energy, and still wants to make progress!
Although the Han Eight Banners cannot have no upper limit like the full Eight Banners, there is always hope for more meritorious deeds.

Besides, in this era, the Manchu Eight Banners may not necessarily be as strong as the Han Eight Banners!

Hu Qiyuan trained his troops in high spirits, while Wan Zhengse drowsy and drank to relieve his worries.

It's just that under the big camp, it looks like it's in full swing, and there are some different emotions.

"Ah Ze, have you heard that Master Eight Banners is going to take us to fight pirates!" said a sleazy Green Camp soldier.

This little soldier known as A Ze, with a strong back and waist, is one of the rare strong soldiers in Fujian.

It seemed that bad memories were aroused, and Aze shuddered violently.

Then, he raised his index finger to his lips, signaling his partner not to talk nonsense.

"There are so many people here, you forgot what the admiral told you!" Aze said in a low voice.

It turned out that these people were the soldiers who fled with Wan Zhengse before, and Wan Zhengse had paid them hush money long ago, and they never made it public.

The thief-eyed soldier glanced at his surroundings: "What are you afraid of? You are surrounded by your own people! Tell me, Lord Baqi asked us to fight pirates, what should we do!"

"Master Baqi wants us to fight, so what else can we do!" Aze was a tall man, but his words were more Buddhist.

"Don't forget, the pirates have sorcery, we can't beat them! Thinking of how they charge, I have nightmares every night." The thief-eyed soldier shuddered.

It was autumn, but thinking of the way the Guards fought, they felt cold all over their bodies.

"How about, let's run away together, I am familiar with the guard post in this camp!" There is a lot of strength in numbers, even if you are a deserter.

The Green Battalion soldier Aze shook his head, he didn't want to take the risk, "Ah Liang, being a deserter will hurt your family, and if you are caught, we will all die."

The Qing Dynasty punished deserters very severely. If they escaped in the barracks, they would be hanged directly.

The other soldiers who discussed quietly were also obviously hesitant. The risk was too great, so they might as well serve as soldiers and eat well.

Moreover, the green battalion soldiers are basically locals, and one will be caught at that time.

"Ah Ze, it's a big deal. The whole family escaped together. I heard good news from the villagers!" A Liang said mysteriously.

"What news?" Upon hearing something good, other soldiers also became interested.

A Liang, who has a wicked eyebrow and a mouse eye, is from Quanzhou Prefecture. The news that Zheng Kezang was begging for a lot of land in Quanzhou had already spread among the people.

After the land distribution was confirmed, those who failed to go regretted it to death.

Some common people heard that after the guards had withdrawn from Quanzhou City, they still didn't give up. They went to Quanzhou Port every now and then to try their luck, but they didn't expect Wan Zhengse to come.

Immediately, Ah Liang told them the good news about going to Mingzheng Neng to divide the land.

These people were tempted and ran with their families. Whether they went to Yizhou Island or Luzon Island, they could avoid the war and live and work in peace and contentment.

"King Yanping's army is in Zhangzhou now, and we can bring our family to seek refuge now, before it's too late!" A Liang bewitched.

Just now they were called pirates, but in a blink of an eye, they are now honored as King Yanping. It seems that the green battalion deserters have changed their minds very quickly.
"Let's go!" Even Aze was tempted.
