Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 206 Shang Zhixin, I take you under the order of the third prince! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

In the distance, a bright and eye-catching red flag finally appeared on the horizon, with a black flame pattern on the red background and a big "King" character on it.At the same time, three large flags appeared, all red, fluttering in the wind blowing from the Pearl River.These three red flags are also embroidered with black thread, the first of which is "Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi", the second is "Zhenfu Tiannan", and the third is "General Manager Nanyang".

If Mingzhu was outside the city of Dongguan in Guangzhou now, and saw the two big banners embroidered with "Zhenfu Tiannan" and "General Manager Nanyang", they would definitely be confused.Because "Tiannan" refers to the south of China, and "Nanyang" refers to the ocean and islands in the south of China.

When will the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi be able to take care of the south of the Celestial Empire and the oceans and islands in the south?The emperor doesn't seem to agree, does he?Why is this Wang Fuchen talking to himself, adding officials and errands to himself?
Now the officials of the Qing Dynasty are really becoming more and more active.

But if it goes on like this, what do you want the court to do?
But Shang Zhixin, Wang Shirong and the others don't care that Wang Fuchen adds some errands and official positions to himself. The only thing they care about now is how many men Lu Bu brought to Guangzhou for Wang Fuchen's work?
A few hundred cavalry is enough. If you bring a large infantry, then today's peace talks will turn into a siege!

Soon, after the flying red flag, there was a jumping red helmet on the helmet, and then hundreds of armored knights, surrounded by the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Wang Fuchen, appeared in the sight of everyone.

These hundreds of knights are all grown-up men from the Northwest, wearing a uniform iron helmet with a bucket hat on their heads, a half-length western-style plate armor on their bodies, and ring armours on their arms.What a combination of Chinese and Western armor!

All the helmets, plate armor, and armguards were burnt black to fade their luster.When these hundreds of soldiers gathered in one place, it was a piece of surging black, dark and imposing.

Anyone who is familiar with Wang Fuchen knows that the real ability of this "living Lu Bu" is actually on horseback. He himself is one of the best knights in the world, and he is also very good at training cavalry and cavalry.Although there was a shortage of horses in Lingnan, his new army came from the north, and there were already many cavalry.Among them, the first battalion of personal cavalry is the strongest!There are more than [-] riders in the whole battalion, all of them are men from Shaanxi and Gansu in the northwest, and they are all good men recruited by Wang Fuchen from the Northwest Army for him in Gansu and Shaanxi.

After this team of cavalry followed Wang Fuchen to Guangdong, they were treated as treasures again, and they were equipped with good armor and weapons.After Wang Zhongxiao took Macau, Wang Fuchen even asked his son for a batch of western plate armor stored in the warehouse in Macau for the cavalry to wear, and even took all the "Ocean horses" of the Portuguese in Macau.He also set up a "foreign horse farm" in Zhaoqing, specializing in breeding western long-legged horses
But now the long-legged western horses haven't grown up yet, so these royal cavalry are still riding Mongolian horses.Because Mongolian horses are too small to carry cavalry in full armor, Wang Fuchen improved the Western plate armor, dismantling the full armor into half armor.In fact, it is a breastplate, and then add two pieces of cloth skirt armor, plus armguards made of wrought iron.

Wearing such a pair of armor on the body, it can always block the arrow clusters shot in the face when charging, and if the distance is farther, it may also be able to withstand lead bullets.But when escaping, it's just the iron cavalry trained by Wang Fuchen. In Guangdong, you don't have to think about escaping, just rush!
Although this living Lu Bu is capricious, his military quality is very reliable.In the original San Francisco Rebellion, his army was small in number and was surrounded by enemies, but he captured more than 90 well-known Eight Banners officers (including the results of joint battles with Wu Zhimao and Wang Pingfan), more than Geng Jingzhong , Zheng Jing, and Shang Zhixin are many!Among the generals of his level (he is only an admiral), that is definitely ranked first!
Shang Zhixin saw these hundreds of cavalry rushing towards him, his fingers holding the whip turned white with nervousness, and he couldn't say a word. The men waiting in line behind also held their breath, just looking at the scene.They were beaten up by Wang Zhongxiao's Guangdong soldiers before, but now they are the real elite cavalry of the old Wang family!

If they really clash later, will they be able to win?

This Hongmen banquet seems to be a bit wrong!

The Hongmen Banquet should have been set up by Xiang Yu to kill Liu Bang, but now it is used to kill Lu Bu
Wang Shirong let out a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "My lord, these knights didn't carry bows or long weapons. It seems that Wang Zhijun is sincere enough."

yes!What's the use of cavalry without bows and spears?

Shang Zhixin also laughed, and said to himself in his heart: Without bows and arrows and long spears, no matter how powerful a cavalry is, it is a dish. Besides, this is not a place for cavalry to play. This is the city of Guangzhou, and cavalry can fly to the top of the city with wings ?Let's ambush later, they are all shotgun targets!

Just when he was thinking about something good, a long suona sound suddenly came from the cavalry led by Wang Fuchen. The knights carrying the flag in front all reined in their horses with one hand. The legged horse let out a long neighing, raised its two front legs high, and then fell heavily, planing the clods of dirt, but stopped ten or twenty steps away from Shang Zhixin and others.

The large group of armored knights behind did not cross the cavalry holding the flag, but spread out to their left and right sides, forming two rather dense four-row horizontal formations.

It was not until all the more than [-] riders stopped that they saw the tall figure of Wang Fuchen. He was also dressed in the same way as the Northwest man below, and it was not easy to recognize him when he was charging into battle.But at this time, he was surrounded by more than a dozen personal guards, and immediately stood in the middle of two fairly dense four-row formations each consisting of [-] cavalry, and waved to Shang Zhixin and Wang Shirong with a smile.

Shang Zhixin and his confidant generals here breathed a sigh of relief!
Wang Fuchen's cavalry did not have any guys with long handles, and they were empty behind them, and there was no royal army following them. The nearest fortress of the royal army was more than ten miles away from the Dongguan Tower!
However, there is still a problem with Wang Fuchen's position. It is still a bit far away from the city wall where the shotgun soldiers are ambushed beside the Dongguan City Tower, and the shotgun cannot hit it!
Also, what does it mean that he will not enter immediately after being so far away?Did you hear murderous intent?

How can this be good?

Just when Shang Zhixin was about to use some trick to trick Wang Fuchen over, he saw Wang Fuchen waving at him.

Of course he can't pass. That's a living Lu Bu!
However, Wang Shirong didn't know that Shang Zhixin had set up a Hongmen banquet to deal with Wang Fuchen. He thought he could persuade Wang Fuchen and Shang Zhixin to join Wu Sangui with his three inches this time!
In addition, yesterday he also received a secret letter sent by Wu Sangui, asking him to inquire about the whereabouts of the third prince Zhu with Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao - now there is a job for the third prince Zhu Xiandi, and the third prince Zhu It is very likely to be in Guangdong!
So when Wang Shirong saw Wang Fuchen waving to him, he whipped him off his horse and rode forward with a smile.

When Wang Fuchen saw Wang Shirong riding over on horseback, and Shang Zhixin was still as immovable as a mountain, he could only smile wryly, and said to Wang Shirong, "Boen, come here quickly."

Just as Wang Fuchen finished speaking, Wang Shirong had already arrived in front of Wang Fuchen and stopped the horse under his crotch. Just as he was about to say hello to Wang Fuchen, he suddenly saw Wang Fuchen pull out a flintlock from a holster hanging on the saddle of the war horse. He fired the pistol, broke off the flint clip of the pistol with the other hand, and then raised the pistol at some target behind Wang Shirong!

Subconsciously, Wang Shirong looked back and found that it was Shang Zhixin that Wang Fuchen pointed the gun at!

This living Lu Bu actually wants to shoot Shang Zhixin!
This is too shameless, right?
When Wang Shirong was so frightened that he couldn't even utter the words to accuse Wang Fuchen, Shang Zhixin was so frightened that his face turned pale!
Because the people he saw drawing their guns did not refer to Wang Fuchen alone, but more than two hundred people—all the royal cavalry in the front row drew their pistols or long-barreled flintlocks (that is, those with straight slots) rifled guns)!

This is really unexpected!

Instead of assaulting with spears, the armored cavalry used muskets to shoot!
This is too unethical, isn't it?
Before Shang Zhixin came back to his senses, he was pushed violently by someone, and he couldn't sit still, so he fell off the saddle, fell heavily to the ground, and fell with stares in his eyes. Before he could react, he saw a row of large and small flames suddenly flashing in the hands of the cavalry lined up opposite him!

Afterwards, Shang Zhixin heard a burst of dense crackling sounds, followed by the screams of people and the neighing of war horses from his left and right sides, forming a sound!
Along with the screams, there was also the thumping sound of the human body falling to the ground!

Since this round of shooting was fired together by more than 100 flintlock pistols and more than 20 straight-slotted rifled guns, the lethality was not small.The flintlock pistol is not very accurate, and it does not have a high hit accuracy at a distance of ten or twenty paces.But those two dozen straight-slot rifled guns are amazing, and they are almost perfect at this distance!

Just one round of shooting has brought down 50 officers and soldiers under Shang Zhixin!
Can be described as heavy casualties!
All of his subordinates were killed and injured. Of course, Shang Zhixin knew that he was plotted against by Wang Fuchen, a sinister and cunning Lv Bu. If someone hadn't pushed him in time, he might have been killed by Wang Fuchen now. Random shooting!
Thinking that he almost died, Shang Zhixin was in a cold sweat. Just as he was about to call out the ambushes who were ambushing in the secret passage behind the sheep and horse wall and in the cave of the soldiers, he suddenly saw through the thin layer of gunpowder smoke in front of him. Those royal iron cavalry who had just emptied a flintlock pistol pulled out another pistol from nowhere and raised it up!
How can you change the gun?

When negotiating with an opponent, using a pistol to assassinate is already very disrespectful of martial arts, why do you still use a different gun to fight?That's double disregarding Wude!

Shang Zhixin is speechless, Wang Fuchen is a shameless Lv Bu!
At this time, Shang Zhixin's subordinates who survived the enemy's first round of shooting had already reacted, and shouted loudly, accompanied by the rather dissatisfied neighing sound from the whipped horse.

"Contradicted, despicable"

"Damn it, Wang still has a gun!"

"They're going to shoot again, run away."

"bang bang bang"

The gunfire rang out again!
The chaotic general of the Shang family was killed and injured 20 people by pistol bullets fired from [-] or [-] paces away——this round of shooting did not take part in the straight-fluted flintlock gun, so the lethality was also low. It was discounted, but the confusion caused was even greater.

Because when the members of the Shang family were "shot for the first time", they still had the intention of rushing forward for hand-to-hand combat, and some even rushed forward.As a result, before they could charge up, the enemy changed their guns and "killed" them again.

And when Wang Fuchen's subordinates changed their guns again, and were about to "shoot" them for the third time, Shang Zhixin's subordinates couldn't hold back anymore, and the shooting was not over yet!
"Run!"

"They still have guns!"

Following a few desperate cries, the generals and soldiers of the Shang Family Army outside Dongguan City, Guangzhou turned around and ran towards the gates on both sides of the city!

At this time, Xiang Zhixin also scrambled and fled to the Wengcheng to escape to the Hongmen Banquet, which had failed!

It's important to escape now!
"bang bang bang"

Another round of gunshots!

Shang Zhixin also didn't care how many of his subordinates were killed by this round of shooting. Now he has only one thought in his mind, run away quickly!If he fled into the Wengcheng, he would have to live, so he spread his two long legs and ran as hard as he could, and the escape speed of these two legs was almost as fast as that of his four legs.

At this time, the shouts of killing with a northwest accent, the neighing of war horses, and the intensive sound of horseshoes sounded together.Needless to say, it must be Wang Fuchen's cavalry that launched the attack.

Shang Zhixin escaped quite quickly. When Wang Fuchen's cavalry rushed up, he was already in front of the hundreds of soldiers under him.This allowed him to temporarily escape a catastrophe!
Since Shang Zhixin had already had people set up defenses outside the Urn City in Dongguan, Guangzhou, most of the originally open roads had been blocked by carbine guns, leaving only a narrow passage.If Shang Zhixin ran slower, he would have squeezed into the narrow passage with those hundreds of soldiers.

Whether it can be squeezed out is really hard to say.

But now, he had already run across the narrow road before everyone else, and the armored soldiers who fell behind blocked the way for Wang Fuchen's cavalry to attack.

Shang Zhixin, who had escaped the catastrophe, turned his head and looked behind him before entering the small left gate of Dongguan Gate. He saw hundreds of soldiers crowding in front of the narrow passage, forming a strong crowd, despite Wang Fuchen's cavalry No matter what, it is impossible to break through for a while.

The sound of killing, shouting, crying, and the sound of flintlock pistol firing rang out.

The soldiers who were lying in the secret passage at the heel of the city wall and the cave for hiding soldiers inside the city wall had rushed out carrying shotguns, bows and arrows. As long as they were in position, they could rely on the sheep and horse wall to resist.

The defense on the city wall should have already started.

Shang Zhixin heaved a sigh of relief, and strode into the Wengcheng. Just as he was about to call his subordinates to pass the order, he suddenly found that there was silence in the Wengcheng.The knights who entered the city one step ahead of him were dragged off their horses by someone and knelt in a row inside the urn city!
Shang Zhixin immediately realized that something was wrong, and just about to turn around and leave, there was a sound of "crash", and a fence gate (jack gate) fell down, blocking the exit of the small left gate.

Now Shang Zhixin couldn't get out, so he opened his throat and shouted: "What's going on? Shuying! Liu Zongzhen"

"My father! Stop yelling. Your sister is here!"

Kong Sizhen's voice suddenly sounded.

Shang Zhixin quickly turned his head to look, and saw his pretty and plump girl, who was also tied up with a rope at this time, kneeling on the ground, the rope was still tight, and her mouth was gagged with a piece of cloth. Yes, still sobbing there, a pair of big eyes filled with tears.

There are two people standing beside Shang Shuying, they are Kong Sizhen and Liu Jinzhong, both of them have wicked smiles on their faces. It looks like adultery!

"Liu Jinzhong, you, you..." Shang Zhixin got angry at once, pointing at Liu Jinzhong and yelling, "You shameless person, you are not satisfied with my sister, and you betrayed me and Shuying for a woman surnamed Kong!"

"What are you talking nonsense about?" Liu Jinzhong glared at Shang Zhixin, "Shang Zhixin, I told you clearly that I was ordered to arrest you, a traitor!"

"According to an order?" Shang Zhixin was taken aback, "You, whose order are you following?"

This has to be asked clearly, now Kangxi's purpose should not be able to control Guangdong, right?And Wu Sangui's purpose should not be so!

Liu Jinzhong really took out a small yellow scroll from his bosom, held it up high, opened his throat and shouted: "I am honored to arrest the traitor by the order of His Royal Highness King Ding of the Ming Dynasty!"

"What?" Shang Zhixin couldn't believe his ears, "Ming King Ding? Zhu, the third prince Zhu? Liu, what are you kidding? You said you arrested me under the order of the third prince Zhu?"

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Shang Shuying who was gagged also struggled to call out.

"Don't move! Turn around and deal with you severely." Liu Jinzhong didn't know how to take pity on you, so he raised his foot and kicked Shang Shuying, and then said plausibly, "I just obeyed the order of King Ding!"

"Nonsense, the third prince Zhu died a long time ago, where did you get his order?" Shang Zhixin still didn't buy it, and while arguing with Liu Jinzhong, he was looking forward to reinforcements on the walls of Guangzhou City and his people outside Dongguan.

With a delay, maybe his men will come to his rescue.

Liu Jinzhong laughed loudly and said: "Shang Zhixin, have you forgotten what my origin is? I was born in the Yongwei camp of Emperor Yizong of the Ming Dynasty. I am the emperor's personal soldier. I have seen Emperor Yizong And the boy will be the king!

Although I haven't seen the young master for more than 20 years, I have a very good memory, and I can still recognize it at a glance!You, just grab it without a fight!Come on, get it for me! "

"Yes!"
