I have a cornucopia

Chapter 171 Yang Shaobao’s happy game
On Xinshengzhou.

Yang Feng, who was in the middle of a confrontation, and the Qing army on the opposite side all turned their heads and stared in astonishment at the fleet heading down the river at night.

One of the warships even came close to them. A person could be vaguely seen standing there on the deck under the moonlight, seeming to be holding something in his hand...

"Damn it, this old fox is finally here!"

Yang Feng said.

Then he looked at Dodo.

"He Tengjiao, he is looking at us with the telescope I gave him. Come, my prince, give him a close-up and let him get to know you.

After all, he is theoretically the highest military and political official in Huguang, so we have to be polite. "

He said.

Then he directly pulled Duduo's little tail and made his head face there. What He Tengjiao was holding was actually a modern telescope, which even had a night vision function. Even after so many years, he didn't know whether it had electricity or not. After all, he was also the Xuzhou Bingbeidao under him when he first became the governor of Huaihai. He was also the highest civil servant under his subordinates, and a modern telescope could still be used. Duduo, who was already dying, raised his head in humiliation, his heart ashes, letting He Tengjiao in the distance admire his current miserable experience, and not far in front of him were thousands of his elite men.

The previous big explosion made the Qing army look at Yang Feng like a monster.

But because he was worried that he would be killed, he did not dare to step forward. However, it may also be that he was worried that he would be killed, and he was just using it as an excuse to protect him.

This is really not human!

Yang Feng looked at the Qing army in chaos and laughed wildly.

Summoned out of thin air, a super big explosion, and a shocking mushroom cloud above the head, this is not like a human being, it is clearly a demon. The Qing army that was shattered on the ground clearly told the Qing army on the opposite side not to act rashly.

After saying that, he took off Duoduo from the armor-breaking awl. The latter was completely paralyzed. Yang Feng simply picked up one of his ankles and dragged him like a dead dog.

He looked at the Qing army across from him with a smile and said with gloating.

"Quickly, retreat to Bailuji!"

Yang Feng said.

"By the way, haven't you noticed that they actually went to attack your pontoon?
You are on a sandbar!
Have you never thought about what will happen to you next once this pontoon bridge is cut off? Or are you hoarding a lifetime of food on this sandbank? "

After showing Duoduo, Yang Feng looked with satisfaction at He Tengjiao's waving movements in the distance.

Then those Qing troops were also in chaos.

Without hesitation he turned and roared.

Indeed, they were on a sandbank, surrounded by water. There were no residents or even cultivated land. There were only large reeds and no boats. Most of them could not swim. Originally, this was just a transit between two pontoons. Station, but now that the pontoon bridge to the north has been blown up, it can only be connected to Bailuji. But if the pontoon bridge in Bailuji is also cut off, then it will be an isolated island, an island surrounded by a few hundred meters of river surface. If tens of thousands of people and thousands of horses are trapped on an isolated island with only sand and reeds...

then……

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Governor He likes to make meritorious deeds so much, so give him a chance to make meritorious deeds!
"Let's go, my prince, no one should care about saving you now."

It's important to save your life.

The leading officer was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed drastically.

This is the purpose of playing Dodo.

Taking advantage of the latter's special status, he attracted all the Qing troops to Xinshengzhou. Duduo was the flag owner. In theory, except for the small part assigned to his brother Azige, most of the remaining white flags were his subjects. He is the master of these people. Once he dies in battle, according to strict military law, all those who follow him will be beheaded. Therefore, the Qing army must try their best to snatch Duduo no matter what. Even if they know that they can't get it back, they just have to come and show it as if they are doing their best, so that they won't go back and suffer too cruel punishment. So Yang Feng could use this method to attract the Qing army to Xinshengzhou, and then according to his plan, he would actually destroy the Bailuji Floating Bridge himself, but now He Tengjiao didn't need him.

It’s true that no one cares about Duduo anymore.

Tens of thousands of people were trapped on a sandbank consisting of only reeds and sand. There was no need to think about what would happen next. Compared with the annihilation of their entire army, Duduo's life and death was no longer important.

At this moment, all the awakened Qing troops are rushing towards the pontoon crazily. Even if the opposite side is the south bank, it is no longer important. After all, even if it is the south bank, they can still flee and fight to find opportunities to cross the river and go north, but there is no chance to stay on Xinshengzhou. ah! In less than two days, they will have to kill each other or cannibalize each other. This sandbank will turn into a hell on earth. Soon they will even start to kill each other at the bridge head. After all, getting on the bridge first will give you more chances of escape.

The fleet flowing down the river continued to hit the pontoon unstoppably.

Immediately after the cannon opened fire, the shells of the Qianjin Folang machine and the small Hongyi cannon roared across the river. The shells that landed in the water stirred up water columns, and the shells that landed on the pontoon harvested the fleeing Qing troops.

It even penetrated the wooden boat used as the bridge body.

Flesh and wood splattered.

On the bridge, the Qing troops were still trying their best to escape, even pushing their companions into the water. Some of them thought their companions were in the way, so they drew their swords and chopped them down. Killing each other was inevitable. Besides, the Eight Banners Manchu, Mongolian, and Han troops were mixed together, killing each other. There is no hesitation when killing. On the warships that were constantly approaching, the cannons continued to fire, and even soldiers with turtledove guns appeared. Although He Tengjiao's men were all weaklings, this kind of battle was completely useless.

Even a weak chicken can have a surge in combat effectiveness.

Soon the first battleship hit the pontoon, and the condescending soldiers directly stabbed down with spears, javelins, threw axes and even used hooks.

Then more battleships hit the pontoon.

The Qing army was desperate and tried their best. They even tried to climb onto the ship.

But it didn't work.

They were on a pontoon that was more than a thousand meters long and could not gather together at all. The impact of a warship was nothing more than a single-digit Qing army. Even the Eight Banners Manchuria would face dozens of people on the deck in this situation. Hundreds of soldiers attacking from a high position were unable to break through. Instead, they were constantly shot down with various weapons from above.

As more and more warships collided with the pontoon bridge, the iron chains fixing the pontoon bridge began to make abnormal noises. This temporary pontoon bridge was not too strong to begin with, and it was already subject to huge pulling force when pushed by the river water. The strength of these warships The tensile force it endured suddenly increased due to the impact. Even if these are small river warships, they are hundreds of tons in size. One can hold up, two can hold up, but what about twenty or even two hundred ships? In fact, it didn’t even take more than a hundred. After more than 20 warships collided, a large warship was also driven by the river water and wind, with a reinforced angle of attack at the front end, and cleared the bridge with a seemingly slow but unstoppable momentum. Jun hit the pontoon with horrified eyes.

With a loud noise, the pontoon bridge was instantly disconnected as the iron chains were broken and the bridge deck disintegrated. The pontoon bridges on both sides suddenly moved forward under the push of the river water, and then were pushed to both sides. During the violent shaking, the Qing troops on the bridge fell into the water. , and the warships originally blocked by the pontoon bridge immediately got out of trouble. At the same time, the soldiers on the ship also threw incendiary bottles...

He Tengjiao still learned a lot. Although there was no gasoline, it was still easy for him to get some other oil. Besides, even if there was no suitable oil, he could also use alcohol. Yang Feng's Molotov cocktail originally had an alcohol version, so he continued with the current high-strength liquor. Just distill it to obtain a high degree of alcohol and put it into porcelain jars. As Huguang was the main grain-producing area in the Ming Dynasty, there was still no shortage of wine. These incendiary bottles ignited the disconnected pontoon bridge. In the rapidly spreading fire, the remaining Qing troops on the bridge screamed and jumped into the Yangtze River. However, they drowned because they could not swim.

Drowning should be better than burning. The disconnection of the pontoon also completely cut off the retreat route of the Qing army on Xinshengzhou.

“Hope they enjoy the rest of the day!”

Yang Feng looked at the howling Qing troops in the distance and said with gloating.

Then he dragged Dodo, like an ogre dragging his prey in a horror movie, toward a small boat waiting for him ahead.

This was sent by He Tengjiao to pick him up. When Yang Feng boarded the ship, the pontoon bridge divided into two sections had turned into two lines of fire. The warships brought by He Tengjiao were lined up on the river, shelling the remaining Qing troops on the south bank. As for the new life They didn't care about the Qing troops on the continent at all...

There is no need to worry about it.

Next, just use warships to patrol the surrounding area. If you find any swimmers trying to swim across the Yangtze River, shoot them. Anyone who tries to make other floating equipment, such as reed rafts, will be bombed to death.

"Play slowly, I don't want to hear about the prisoners."

On He Tengjiao's ship, Yang Feng gave a clear warning.

"Shaobao, there are thousands of war horses there."

He Tengjiao said.

"Do you think they will surrender before eating these horses?"

Yang Feng said.

"But if we send people up to persuade them, they will still sacrifice their horses and surrender. Besides, they can also swim across the river on horseback. They will just throw away their weapons and armor."

"Then, you use these Jianlu as thugs, and suddenly get a combat-effective army, and then use it to deal with Li Zicheng or Zhang Xianzhong? Don't think about this. I finally got such a fun thing, what else do you want? Destruction? From now on, no one is allowed to go up there, and no one is allowed to leave there. I want them all to starve to death. In short, when there is no activity on Xinshengzhou, I will send people up again. You don't need to take care of this anymore. Leave it to Wang Guangtai. As long as he performs the blockade mission well, I can forget about his previous affairs and give him a general."

Yang Feng said.

Wang Guangtai can still be pardoned.

This guy is actually one of the thirteen families in Kuidong.

Historically, after they surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, because the Qing Dynasty tried to deprive them of their army, which was undoubtedly unacceptable to the warlords, Wang Guangtai rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and defeated the Huguang Admiral Sun Ding who went north from Wuchang to encircle and suppress them. Liao, the latter fell into the water and died, but in the face of the Qing army that followed a massive attack, he fled Yunyang with his men. Since then, as one of the thirteen families in Kuidong, he continued to resist until the Mage period when he finally surrendered.

Since he said this, He Tengjiao had nothing to do. Although he was the governor of Huguang and Yang Feng was the governor of Jiliao, they indeed had no control over him, but a person still needs to be aware of current affairs.

Ignorant of current affairs...

Then he will probably fall into the water soon.

At this time, Xuanwu Lake in Nanjing.

"Princess, now that Yang Shaobao is trapped in Wuchang, you don't want to have no troops to rescue him because Nanjing has no owner and all the places can't work together, right?"

Ma Shiying, who has been trying to persuade me here for a long time but has never succeeded, has to resort to a big weapon.

As for the princess's reluctance, it is normal. She can indeed convey the situation to these local officials, and then these guys will do it, but that is not what she asked these people to do. She just conveyed it to them as a princess, which is considered It was up to her father to agree or disagree with the petition. It was these officials who acted on their own initiative. They assumed that her father had already agreed before she made a decision after she submitted the petition. But the supervision of the country is different. In the supervision of the country, she manages the country on behalf of her father. She issues all orders. The officials below receive her orders to supervise the country and act on behalf of the emperor. This nature is completely different.

Although she is just a girl, as a princess, she does not understand these things.

To put it bluntly, these guys just want to find a way to stand out, and she definitely has no interest in power. In this case, why should she be a gunman for them?

Although she is a princess, unlike other vassal kings, she is still a supervisor of the country after all. She is also the former ruler of the Nanjing Imperial Court and the provinces under the Nanjing Imperial Court. No matter whether her father or her brother come back, it will be difficult to be the same as before. It is inevitable to be suspicious of her. What's wrong with the princess? Li Longji still has to kill his aunt. This is how the emperor's family is. She is a princess. At best, it's to a lesser degree, but it's not nothing. It's impossible to have the same pure family affection as in the past, although in fact, in good conscience , even her father didn't have much affection for her.

But she is just a little woman.

She has no ambition.

She didn't think about fighting for power.

In this case, why would you risk your family ties for these guys?

but……

"Yang, Yang Shaobao should be able to escape, right?"

She said weakly.

It was obvious that she was also a little unsure.

"Princess, Dorgon leads an army of 200,000, including 40,000 Eight Banners Manchurians and 20,000 Mongolian cavalry. They have surrounded Wuchang. So far, there is no news from the city. Even though Yang Shaobao has the courage to stand up to ten thousand men, How to fight out from these 200,000 enemy troops? Now that all the armies in the lower reaches are unable to escape, they can only mobilize the troops of Jiangxi, Pianyuan, and even Guizhou, especially the chieftains in Guizhou to rescue them. But how many places are there in this generation? Functional transfer? This generation was constantly rebellious when the imperial court was still strong. Now that the imperial court exists in name only, can we still expect them to be obedient?
Only by using a princess to supervise the country and command the world can the people feel at ease, and governors from various places can quickly mobilize troops to rescue Wuchang. "

Ma Shiying said.

Next to him, Yang Guanguang looked at this old man who lied to a little girl with disdain...

Of course, he still has to be an accomplice.

"Princess, it is true. Now the only soldiers upstream who can fight are these chieftains. But if we want to mobilize this generation, we must first have a court.

Even if it's just to supervise the country's court. "

He echoed from the side.

Then the two liars looked sincerely at the princess who was obviously a little panicked...
