Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 218 Shang Zhixin's battle is here! (Seeking a monthly pass, asking for a subscription)

"The banner of King Jingnan!"

At the head of Wuhu City, several defenders suddenly pointed to the flag that appeared on the horizon in the distance, and shouted loudly.

At this time, Wuhu, a small county under the Taiping Mansion, was leading troops on duty at the head of the city, but it was Mang Yitu, the leader of Jiang Ning, who was of the third rank.

Mang Yitu, whose old surname is Zhaojia, is from Manchuria with a white banner. He is in his 30s this year. He is about the same as Duolong and Guanyinbao. They are all Manchu banners of "one and a half generations", compared with those who were born after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs. , the pure second generation who grew up in a honeypot is still very powerful.

Mang Yitu stayed outside the customs for ten or eight years when he was a child. He suffered a little bit, and was later forced by the "old villain" in his family to beat his martial arts strength.

His villain Ama, like Duolong's Ama, has both received the title of Batulu, and belongs to the evil of evil.And he lived for a long time, until Mang Yitu grew into an adult, he was pissed to death—of course not by Mang's filial son, but by the new masters with white flags.

He is Batulu with the white flag, and of course he belongs to the three brothers (Dorgon, Duoduo, and Azig) of the "Laoduo". ?

Otherwise, with the Batulu he played alone, how could he be a minister?
If he became a minister, Mang Yitu, a little villain, would not be able to become a leader of Jiangning now. In [-], he fought Maolu Mountain with Murima again, earning a Jiangning co-leader with one knife and one gun, and then he didn't get a promotion for another ten years.

Looking at Duolong and Guanyinbao again, their chopping skills are far worse than his, and their qualifications are similar. Now one is the governor of Liangjiang, and the other is the minister of the guards.
But you can't get promoted just by being angry!
In today's Qing Dynasty, there are two ways to get promoted, one is to spend money to buy!The second is to earn with credit.

Mang Yitu has no money.

But isn't the opportunity to make meritorious service come?

Hearing the shouts of the soldiers below, he immediately ran over from a short distance away, pushed aside the defenders and stood on the edge of the battlements, raised a binoculars, and looked for a while at the direction of the fingers of a soldier wearing a green battalion uniform. Then he put down the binoculars, stroked one of his long beards, grinned and said, "He n, the surname Geng finally came. Well done, well done! Looking at this movement, there are seven or eight thousand people?
OK!Simply hit him N!Our Jiangning Banner has a good business atmosphere, and we don't need to travel far, and the credit will come to our door! "

As Mang Yitu said, he turned around and patted the shoulder of the soldier wearing the uniform of the green battalion beside him vigorously, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his teeth.Then he adjusted the uniform of the green battalion on his body, and ran down with big strides, striding like meteors, the brick-covered city wall and the ground made a thumping sound, really shaking the mountain a bit.

There are not many soldiers on duty on the city wall of Wuhu City, but at this time, the inner side of the city wall is crowded with soldiers wearing green battalion uniforms like Mang Yitu!
The uniforms of these soldiers are all bulging, looking a bit bloated.If you get closer and take a closer look, it is not difficult to find that under these uniforms are all kinds of cloth-covered iron armor that only the Eight Banners soldiers have!

These soldiers wearing green battalion uniforms turned out to be "not very serious" Jiangning Banner battalion soldiers!
The reason why they are "not very serious" is because their "flag content" is uneven.Because Yue Le gave away too many bannermen in the battle in Sichuan, more than 1 people lost in one battle, even if you count the Eight Banners Mongolia and the more loyal Han Eight Banners (the Han Eight Banners are too unreliable these days), it is also damaged More than ten percent of the total number of strong bannermen!

Moreover, the situation in the Qing Dynasty took a turn for the worse after the war. The Longxi battlefield, Huguang battlefield, and Jiangxi battlefield all needed bannermen to fill in and consume!Henan and Shaanxi also need bannermen to guard, and Beijing has to keep some. Prince Gong Changning led some bannermen to run their hometown in Northeast China.

Bannermen are needed everywhere, and the production of bannermen is insufficient, so they can only "fill the banner with slaves" and "follow the banner in troubled waters"!

The Eight Banners soldiers who were originally stationed in various places were more capable of fighting among the bannermen, so they were drawn out in large numbers to fill the backbone of the "New Banner Army" in various places.At the same time, a group of coated slaves, account holders, other account holders, and even new bannermen who "raise the flag urgently" were recruited.

As for the fighting power of these "New Bannermen", they are not necessarily weak, at least not weaker than the Beijing Eight Banners, but compared to the Eight Banners soldiers who were originally stationed everywhere and supported the Qing Dynasty on the front line, they are still worse.

However, after Mang Yitu became chaotic in the world, he conducted strict training for the reorganized Jiangning Banner Battalion. Although these Eight Banners soldiers are "unscrupulous", their skills in cutting people and shooting muskets are passable.

As long as Geng Jingzhong falls for the plan and crosses the river on the pontoon bridge on the Changhe River in the south of Wuhu City, he will surely be beaten halfway by the four thousand Jiangning Banner soldiers ambushing in Wuhu City and outside the city behind the Yangtze River Embankment and the Changhe Embankment. And strike!

As long as the half-crossing is successful, the 4000 Liangjiang governor's pacesetters and the [-] Jiangning regiment training in the north of Wuhu City will take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill them.
The reason for such deployment is because Duolong, the governor of Liangjiang, can be an official, earn money and flatter, but he can't train soldiers. When Aobai was in power, he was detained by the guards all the time. It was not without reason.

Therefore, the thousands of superintendents under Duolong's command are really not very capable of fighting. If they charge into the battle, they may be defeated by Geng Jingzhong's men in a single battle, and they will all be smashed.

As for the regiment that Lu Sanhao brought out from Jiangning, he had just been recruited, and he didn't know how to set up a square formation, so he could only wave his flag and shout to scare people, and at most he could fight with the wind.

So for today's battle, we can only rely on Mang Yitu's flag soldiers!

But Mang Yitu is still very confident that four thousand is against eight thousand, the advantage lies in the flag!

With the confidence of winning, Mang Yitu walked quickly to the central army of Duolong, Governor of Liangjiang, located in Wuhu County Yamen - the commander-in-chief of today's ambush was of course Governor of Liangjiang Duolong.

The victory is due to Doron!
If you lose, Mang Yitu will take the blame!
"What? Only eight thousand don't you mean seventeen thousand?"

After listening to Mang Yitu's report, Duolong, who was already a little restless, immediately became nervous.

Li Guangdi at the side heard Duolong's question, and quickly replied: "Yes, yes, it's [-], it can't be wrong!"

"Where are the other nine thousand?" Doron asked nervously.

Mang Yitu spread his hands together: "Multiple troops, how does this lowly officer know? Maybe Geng Jingzhong is divided into two teams, the front team has [-] troops, and the rear team has [-] troops."

"Maybe." Duolong frowned, "Know yourself and know your enemy, how can you "maybe" do it?"

"This" Mang Yitu is speechless, how can there be so many "know yourself and know the enemy"?Where do I go?

"Many troops," Li Guangdi was also a little nervous, "We have a total of 1 people near Wuhu. If Geng Jingzhong's [-] troops arrive, then we may not be sure to take them down. I think It's just right to eat him eight thousand first!"

Duolong nodded stiffly, and exhaled, "Damn Geng Jingzhong. That's the only way to go!"

It is absolutely impossible to return to Jiangning now.

Because as soon as Geng Jingzhong turns back and enters the city, there will definitely be people who are dissatisfied with the Qing Dynasty and report to him. When he knows that the Qing army has set up an ambush to ambush him, then he will definitely be cautious in the future.

But today's world situation is not on the side of Qing Dynasty!
Once Geng Jingzhong plays the banner of joining forces with Wu Sangui in Wuhu, I don't know how many unruly people and evil gentry in the south of the Yangtze River will support him.And if something goes wrong in the Taiping Mansion, how can Jieshu guard Jiujiang?
When Li Zicheng comes to Jiangning
"Forget it!" Duolong gritted his teeth, "Put out my official's Liangjiang governor's festival flag! Then send someone to tell Geng Jingzhong, and say that this official came to Wuhu to welcome him, and has prepared a banquet in the city to welcome him! "

"Whoo!"

Mang Yitu agreed, and rushed away excitedly.

"What? The multi-control army is in Wuhu City?"

"That's right! The Duozhi army invites your prince to meet him quickly, and has arranged a banquet in Wuhu City to clean up the dust for the prince!"

"Okay, okay, please report to the multi-army army, the prince will be here soon!"

"Then I will take my leave first!"

"Go well, don't send it off!"

To the south of the long river, a flag soldier officer wearing a blue cloth face armor and a spear helmet on his head handed off a group of knights who claimed to be Duolongoshiha, the governor of the two rivers, and then pulled the reins himself. Running towards the back of the long marching team.

But he didn't go to see Geng Jingzhong, because Geng Jingzhong was not in this marching team at all.The [-]-step cavalry here is led by Liu Jinzhong, the general soldier of Chaozhen, Shang Shuying, the wife of Duke Xushun's mansion, Deng Guangming, the governor of Duke Xushun's mansion, Chen Shikai, the general soldier of Huizhou, and Shang Zhixin, the son of Prince Pingnan!
That's right, Shang Zhixin has been released, and he has joined Geng Jingzhong, becoming the Geng family's best friend!
He's really going all out now!
He knew how serious his crime was, and he would definitely be executed by Ling Chi when he arrived in Xi'an, so he could only fight for his life!

Also on his mind are a group of buddies of the Shang family who were escorted to Fujian together with him, as well as Shang Shuying, Shang Zhixin's sister.The brothers and sisters are now wearing armor and carrying guns, and riding war horses, looking desperate.

And when Shang Shuying tried her best, Deng Guangming, the flag soldier commander of Xushun Duke's mansion, had to lead the warriors under the feudal clan to fight along with Mrs. Tai's rebellion, could they still escape?
What's more, the people in Duke Xushun's mansion are all from Guangdong. They know the situation in Guangdong very well--Wang Fuchen has actually rebelled!
So Wu Guogui has no worries at all, and will soon fight through Jiangxi with Li Zicheng.

The Great Qing Dynasty will definitely end, but the south of the Yangtze River will definitely not be able to keep it, so Deng Guangming and his nephew Deng Zhong, the flag soldier officer who just sent away the Dolongoshha Cavalry, have made up their minds to become Geng Jingzhong may be Wu Sangui's founding hero.

"Liu Zongzhen, uncle, Mrs. Tai, and the eldest son Duolong have also come to Wuhu!" This Deng Zhong is in his forties this year. He used to be the guard of Dorgon's palace. Under Guangming's command, although he made a lot of military exploits, but because he followed Dorgon, he couldn't get promoted, and he was already angry.Speaking of Duolong now, his teeth are almost gnawed.

"Liu Zongzhen," Shang Zhixin took a breath, and glanced at Liu Jinzhong who betrayed him in Guangzhou last time, "I'll go meet Duolong!"

Liu Jinzhong smiled and cupped his hands: "Be careful, there may be an ambush!"

"Where there is an ambush, there will be an ambush." ​​Shang Zhixin's eyes were red, "Anyway, the people in my Pingnan Palace are dead! Why don't you fight them!"

While talking, Shang Zhixin made a move with the spear in his hand, and shouted, "Man of Pingnan Palace, follow me! It's time to repay King Geng!"

"Yes!"

More than 100 knights in cloth armor shouted in unison, each one of them seemed to be full of fire!
Then, I saw that Shang Zhixin took the lead, holding a long gun, and led these more than 100 riders towards a wide pontoon bridge on the long river outside Wuhu City.

This is really desperate!
Perhaps Shang Zhixin really thought that Geng Jingzhong rebelled to save him?

A scholar dies for his confidant!
Seeing Shang Zhixin galloping away with the cavalry, Shang Shuying glanced at Liu Jinzhong worriedly: "Brother Liu, is there anything wrong?"

"It's hard to say." Liu Jinzhong stared forward, "But the 9000 people led by the prince have already crossed the long river in Huangchi Town. As long as they outflank to the north of Wuhu City, they should be safe."

It turns out that Geng Jingzhong is not particularly stupid. He still knows how to use some tricks!
This time he used a strategy of splitting the troops into two groups and double-teaming the front and back.

And in order to ensure the success of the raid, he also invited Shang Zhixin out of the prison car to take the lead, and at the same time let Mingzhu sit in-Shang Zhixin and Mingzhu, one of them will always sit in the prison car!

"Zhijun, it seems that more than 100 cavalry have come. They seem to be Geng Jingzhong's personal soldiers!"

On the wall of Wuhu City, Duolong was lying behind a crenel and watching the situation ahead!

He is not at ease!

This battle is a matter of life and death. If he loses, Duolong will be finished. Even if he does not die in the battle, he will have to be dismissed and investigated when he returns. If he knew it earlier, he would be less corrupt and train more soldiers, which is better than anything else!
Just as he was regretting, Li Guangdi, who was with him beside him, had already yelled.

"More than 100 rides." Duolong frowned, "Should be here to say hello for Geng Jingzhong?"

As he spoke, he lifted up the binoculars and began to look, and saw a familiar person: "Hey, this tall man in the lead looks familiar, he seems to be..."

"Zhijun, is he the Ghoshha that Geng Jingzhong brought from Beijing to Fujian?" Li Guangdi asked.

"No, no." Duolong held up the binoculars, looked at it for a while, and suddenly yelled, "This, isn't this Mr. Da Da? How did he become Geng Jingzhong's personal soldier?"

"Shang Zhixin?" Li Guangdi also exclaimed, "Why was he released?"

Duo Longxin said: This second-class No. 2 Jinshi also has a time when he can't make up his mind, how can Shang Zhixin let it go?That must have been released by Geng Jingzhong!They have a good relationship, Geng Jingzhong was Shang Zhixin's follower since he was a child!This Geng Jingzhong didn't rebel to save Shang Zhixin, did he?

As soon as he thought of this, Shang Zhixin had galloped onto the pontoon bridge, galloping on horseback with a spear in his hand, and shouted: "Kill!"

As soon as he shouted and charged, the more than 100 riders behind him also went all out, all of them charged forward with red eyes and shouted "kill", but they scared the ambushes on the other side of the long river.

Is this rebel so fierce?
Dare to pounce on the city after more than 100 rides?

At this time, outside the south gate of Wuhu City, hundreds of banner soldiers wearing green battalion uniforms have been listed. They are pretending to be Duolong's personal soldiers. Rushing up, Rao Mang Yitu didn't react for a moment, until Shang Zhixin was about to rush over the pontoon bridge, and then he shouted: "Shooters, shoot me!"

"boom blah blah"

Immediately there was a mess of shotgun shooting, but it was useless, because Shang Zhixin was still far away, probably more than a hundred steps away, and the shotgun couldn't hit him at all.

And seeing a row of large and small muzzle flames flickering on the opposite side, Shang Zhixin also knew that there was an ambush!

But he didn't intend to retreat at all, instead he swung his whip and slammed the horse. The horse under his crotch suffered from pain, and ran like a desperate man. Over a hundred steps rushed past, before Mang Yitu and the others reacted When he came over, he had already rushed into the group of Jiangning bannermen pretending to be Goshha bannermen.Then there was a muffled bang, and someone was knocked flying by his horse.

Shang Zhixin didn't know whether he was yelling or he really thought that Duolong was killed, so he opened his throat and shouted: "Shang Zhixin killed Duolong here! Who else dares to fight to the death! Wow! "

This Shang Zhixin's martial arts is actually not very good, but this guy's voice is very loud, it sounds like thunder.

Why did he shout, what kind of situation did the ambushing Jiangning banner soldiers get?Why did Shang Zhixin come here?Isn't he the son of Prince Pingnan? Isn't he talking about beating Geng Jingzhong, Prince of Jingnan this time?Why is Shang Zhixin still there? Will there be another Wu Sangui later?
Moreover, how did this Shang Zhixin kill the governor of Liangjiang, Duolongduo, in one blow?This is too fierce, right?How to fight this battle?
