Win the Ding 1617

"Great Qing Ping Nan Da General asked the Hongwu Army to stay behind, General Li Huabao, to come out and speak!"

"My master has something to ask General Li Er, do you dare to fight?!"

As soon as the sun jumped out of the skyline between the river and the sea, the Qing army began to swarm out from the various camps in a steady stream. Men, horses, vehicles, artillery, and luggage, like streams of streams, continued to flow into the area outside Shanghai County. over the wilderness.

People shouted and horses neighed, sentinel horses whizzed back and forth to pass orders, drums and trumpets kept sounding, and flags and banners were like forests and seas.

The soldiers and horses of Boluo's headquarters, the Manchurian, Mongolian and Han armies of the Eight Banners, were all dispatched. The total number was close to 1, of which more than [-] were cavalry and the rest were infantry.

His troops and horses are naturally lined up in the middle and later positions of the entire Qing army's front.

Right in front of the formation, twenty cannons with eight-pound cannons, and fifty small Hongyi cannons with three-, five-, six-, and seven-pound cannons were lined up in front of the Chinese army's large formation. Generally, ten four-wheeled millstone artillery carts are guarded in the center. On the artillery carts made of wrought iron, Shenwei General Cannons weighing three to four thousand catties are erected. These artillery are all heavy artillery that can fire more than ten catties of shells.Behind the cannon carts, cannon carts and gunpowder carts lined up densely.

A huge handsome flag was placed on a Yuanrong chariot. This chariot was carefully crafted by Liu Zanji and Jiangnan merchants in accordance with the pattern on the Wubei Zhi, looking for Jiangnan master craftsmen. .On the side of the Yuan Rong chariot, a woven golden dragon banner was hung high on a nest cart, announcing to the entire battlefield that the general's main line is here.

And Anjun Wang Yuele played the role of sweeping the formation for Boluo and holding down the formation. More than 1 of his subordinates were arranged at the rear of the entire front.

There are less than [-] troops in his headquarters, and the rest are collected by him along the way.But these [-] men were all cavalry of the same color. Not only did everyone ride a horse, many of them were equipped with two horses.One color of iron-inlaid cotton armor, lightning rod helmets, and many people are still wearing Nanzhong breastplate ostentatiously outside the cotton armor.Different from Boluo's subordinates, who are full of cold weapons such as tiger guns, pick knives, maces, giant axes, horse bows and bows, which are full of the characteristics of the Eight Banners, many of Yue Le's men carry firecrackers on their backs. It was carefully wrapped in a tung oilcloth gun jacket.

The Ba Yala soldiers and confidant house slaves beside Yue Le even carried firecrackers on their backs, and immediately hung them. Dozens of Bala soldier leaders and house slaves also carried short firecrackers on their waists.

The remaining thousands of soldiers and horses were also in neat attire. The cavalry wore long body armor with inlaid armor leaves, iron helmets with arms and hands, and the infantry had their heads wrapped in turbans.Or wear a red hat and full waist armor.Short hoods vary.This kind of short armor basically has no nail leaves in the inside, and only some nail blisters are nailed on the surface. After all, everyone has nails.The pikemen all wear red waist armor, and the sword and shield soldiers all wear red cotton armor.Looking at it from a distance, it looks like a cloud of fire.

These were collected by Yue Le from among the surrendered soldiers and horses along the way since he went south.Compared with Boluo and others who don't care about anything and only surrender, Yue Le is much more picky.Therefore, in comparison, the number of soldiers and horses in his headquarters is much smaller than that of Boloturg and others.However, in terms of quality and momentum, Boluo has no advantage at all.

Today, Boluo has invested 10,000+ people in one go, and the leader of the enemy has invested 8. Behind Yue Le, there are [-] people in formation, ready to go to war at any time.Between the two fronts, countless handymen moved back and forth in the muddy ground like ants under the drizzle. Ladders, cannons, gunpowder, and various siege equipment slowly moved away amidst their hoarse slogans. move forward.

"This damn rain in Jiangnan!"

Boluo shook the water droplets on the rain cloak resentfully, and water droplets dripped from the brim of the helmet from time to time on the top of his head, affecting his vision.

"Master, this servant has asked, the rain will stop after a while. As long as the rain stops, the army can be dispatched!"

The leader of the domestic slaves around Boluo is very meticulous, and he has long guessed his master's thoughts.If the rain does not stop, the artillery of the army cannot fire normally, which affects the performance of firepower.If the artillery can't suppress the firepower of the Hongwu army erected in the fortress on the opposite side, the Qing soldiers and horses will not be able to charge up, and the knives, guns and equipment in their hands will naturally be useless at all.

On both sides of Boluo's main formation are the troops and horses of the various units that are responsible for the task of leading the enemy this time.The commanders-in-chief, deputy generals, guerrillas, and generals of each town were all drenched by rainwater over the large and small phalanxes.According to the current military system of the Green Banner Army, there are about thousands of soldiers in the headquarters of a town, and the rest are the lieutenants, generals, guerrilla soldiers and soldiers of each battalion in the town, even if they have spare time and pay. , I don't dare to be as unscrupulous as before. After all, after everyone changed their banners, it is obvious that the current master is very different from the previous one.

In the old Zhu family in the past, the owner had neither money nor food, nor a knife in his hand, so he could only let them do all kinds of nonsense.Later, the second shopkeeper of Lao Li's house came. Although there was no shortage of money and food, he was not the owner after all, so everyone was naturally a little bit mean.But right now, the new braid owner has a sharp knife in his hand, so if he doesn't obey, he will immediately invite your whole family to eat noodles.If you are obedient and work hard, the boss doesn't care about rewards for money and food.

Dozens of phalanxes, large and small, seven or eight generals, and dozens of lieutenants and generals commanded their respective soldiers and horses, and opened a front tens of miles long outside the county seat of Shanghai.There are messengers formed from Boluo's main formation on galloping horses, sending orders to various military formations.Soon, the noisy roar of tens of thousands of people sounded in the wilderness.

"General Da Qing Ping Nan asked the second general of the Li family if he dared to fight?!"

"General Li Er, after the death of your eldest brother, your family has no sons who dare to fight anymore?"

A series of provocative and scolding words spread through the rain and fog to the county town.

On the pier by the river, Li Huamei also heard the faint yelling. She smiled and asked Li Huabao who came to see him off: "Second brother, how are you, are you angry or not?"

"Are you so angry?!" Li Huabao showed a weary look in front of his sister, "Father has taught me that the Lord should not provoke a teacher out of anger, and the general should not go into battle out of anger. The master also said that as a general, Learn not to be angry first, and then learn to be angry. I have already ordered that if they want to scold, let them scold in the rain. Anyway, scolding can't get rid of a single hair of our hair. Let's just drink hot soup around the stove in the fortification Tea, wait until they get tired of cursing and it’s too cold to rush up, and we’ll use the calibrated cannons and guns to treat them to something warm!”

"You are so exhausting! If Master Liu sees you like this, he will be so angry that one Buddha will be born and two Buddhas will be born."

"Sister, you are wrong. The master is a member of the Taoist sect, and has nothing to do with the Buddha!"

The siblings fought for a few words, and Li Huamei led people aboard her Aomei. "Good life guard the city, I'll clean up those annoying guys in the river and come back to help you!"

"Sister, just don't worry!" Li Huabao put away his expression, and saluted his sister very solemnly.

Today, Boluo's offense is divided into two routes: land and water.Although the momentum on land is great, it is not the main battlefield.His main purpose was on the Huangpu River.

Every time the Qing army attacked Shanghai, it was bombarded by artillery fire from the river, the county town, and the business district.This time, Boluo became ruthless and mobilized all the ships on the canal south of Zhenjiang, Nanjing, Huai'an, Huaiyin, and Yangzhou to enter the Yangtze River and transfer to the Huangpu River.He wants to use the absolute superiority of numbers to destroy Li Huamei's naval fleet first, cut off a wing of Shanghai County's defense system, and then attack Shanghai.

Who is Li Huamei?That's the legendary figure who caught the boat cannon when he caught the week!How could it be impossible to see the purpose of the densely packed ships of various sizes and colors on the river that almost covered the entire river?What's more, her husband-in-law is Shi Lang, who is a character who has lived in the pirate's den since childhood, and is very familiar with all kinds of activities on the water.In her opinion, Boluo's little thoughts are just child's play.

"I want to use a large number of ships to fight with Ben on the narrow river, consume my artillery and sailors, and then use a fire boat to go down the river and burn my mother's boat? What a good idea!"

Standing on the bridge, facing the wet and slightly salty river wind, Li Huamei sneered.

"Signature, the fleet will go up to meet him! Since he is here, we have to sing a few words in conjunction!"

Led by the Aomei, twelve large and small ships went against the current and the wind, facing the huge fleet of the Qing army on the Huangpu River.

"If you really paid for it, there are more than a dozen gunboats, hundreds of large and small sand boats, and thousands of tank boats. Even if there are only fifty soldiers on each boat, there are at least fifty or sixty thousand people!" Li Huamei observed the distance through the binoculars Qing fleet.

"Princess, I think there are more fire boats than warships in these boats!" Fathead Yu was already the captain of Li Huamei's personal army, and he also held a telescope to observe the enemy's situation on the opposite side.

"Hmph! I want to learn the tricks of our Admiral Zheng, but I can play this trick in front of where to buy it. Isn't that selling water by the riverside, and you are overconfident?!" Li Huamei has already discovered that many ships in the fleet look like It is fully loaded, but the water line is very high. Obviously, it is not a heavy food like grain cannons, so there are only firewood, fish oil, sulfur and other flammable things.What's more, among the ups and downs of the waves, objects such as iron hooks and nails can be vaguely seen on the bows of these ships, which makes it even more convincing that this is a fire ship.

"I want to set fire to the warship, okay! Let's see who Cao Mengde is!"

With Li Huamei's order, the fleet speeded up and rushed straight to the Qing fleet.

"This scarlet-winged tiger is still so fierce! It has seen many ships of this general, but it is not afraid at all. Liang Guogong's children are all outstanding characters!"

In the middle of the Qing army fleet, on a large tugboat, the commander of the Qing army navy, Manchurian Zhenglan Banner Melezhangjing Eheli, stood firmly on the bow, and also held a telescope to observe the head-on coming from the downstream. Li Huamei fleet.The handsome plum blossom flag on the Aomei was fluttering violently in the wind, making it easy for people to tell that it was Li Huamei's boat.

"Today, I will defeat you, the scarlet-winged tiger, and report the grace of the master, and the hatred of my Uncle Turge!"

Eheli is Turge's nephew and E Yidu's grandson, both of them belonged to the Niu Hulu clan. (See, the Niu Hulu family not only produced a not-so-famous Heshen and adults, but also a lot of great people. Otherwise, it would not have become the eight major noble surnames in Manchuria, and it was one of the four great families in the Qing Dynasty. Sheli's family, Tong's family, and Fucha's family are tied together.) He inherited his post as Niulu'erzhen, and sought to move Jiala'erzhen.From Prince Zheng Jierhalang to Huguang, he has repeatedly defeated Ming soldiers.The teacher returned and was awarded the director of the capital city.Moved the capital to the director of the Procuratorate.Progressive second class Ashani Hafan.He has defeated Zheng Chenggong twice in history.In the ninth year of Shunzhi, the commander-in-chief was ordered to guard Jiangning.Zheng Chenggong invaded Fujian and stationed troops in Haicheng.General Pingnan Jinli invited Yishi to advance and suppress, and ordered Eheli to send 500 and [-] people to join forces with Jinli and successfully defeated them. He then attacked Haicheng and defeated the successful army.

(Someone said it, not all the literature and art works said that the Qing army was good at riding and archery, but not good at water warfare? How could it still defeat Zheng Chenggong, who is famous for his navy? This is why you have been misled. What is the origin of the Qing army? Northeast China He was born in the fishing, hunting and picking tribe, and he doesn’t know how to swim, how to get into the water to touch Dongzhu, how to hunt otters, how to catch salmon? The scene where the Manchurian children of the Eight Banners get seasick when they get on the boat is pure nonsense by the director.)

It is because of this relationship between uncle and nephew, and because Ehri also made great contributions on Tashan, and was promoted from Niuluzhangjing to Meilezhangjing all the way, so he snatched the job from his uncle Yirden.Today, the character who defeated Yanping County King twice in history is about to meet Zheng Sen's sister-in-law head-on.I don't know if Li Huamei will show Fusongwan the bad breath he has in his history? !

Na Yierden is not an idle person either, he was born in Manchuria with a white banner, not only the son of E Yidu, but also served as Nurhachi's bodyguard.In September of the third year of Tiancong, Zhangzi Island was attacked, and the island was under the jurisdiction of Mao Wenlong, who was killed by Yuan Chonghuan.Ilden's commander-in-chief travels a little bit, gets four boats, sinks them, and captures them back.In October, they attacked Longjing Pass from the cutting of Ming Dynasty, entered through the water gate, beheaded Ming generals Yi Ai and Wang Zunchen, and wiped out all of them.In August of the fifth year, the city of Dalinghe was attacked, and the city of Yierden turned eastward to the south, with deep ditches and strong fortifications, and guarded it around, so as to defeat the enemy.In August, Shangzi general Yuhong Chengchou, between Chen Shisongshan and Xingshan, ordered the ministers of Baylor to intercept the Ming soldiers.Yierden and Gongtazhan led the Baya soldiers to lie in Gaoqiao. As soon as they left the camp, they met thousands of Ming soldiers and sneaked out from Xingshan Mountain. After beheading them, they went to Gaoqiao; In the south of the mountain, it ran to Tashan, rising and falling, and the Ming soldiers fled.Moved up the camp to force Songshan, the Ming general Cao Bianjiao invaded the imperial camp at night, Turge took the lead in shooting the enemy, Irden and the inner minister's clan Xihan organized their troops to resist the battle, Bianjiao was defeated and fled.It is also a character who can go to sea and land battles with water, and can dig trenches and break pigs on land.

If it wasn't for Ehri's origin in the Tashan family, he might not have been able to compete for his uncle, Irden!

"Master, do you want the fire boat to come up from the back? Now we are going with the current and against the wind, so we can set her Li Huamei on fire!" Ehri's subordinate, Jialazhangjing Alinbao, walked from the stern to the bow, and asked Ehri Please fight here.

"Wait. Li Huamei hasn't gone deep yet. If she set fire to the boat too early, she can turn around and escape at any time. Where are we now?"

"Master, Lujiazui is in front of you. Look, isn't that the fort along the river that we set up over there! There are more than a dozen cannons of different sizes on it, and there are four to five hundred people guarding it."

"Send people ashore and tell them that when Li Huamei's fleet comes over and sees our ship fighting with Li Huamei, a tigress, then launch an attack from the shore."

"Master, their cannons may not be able to sink Li Huamei's boat, if they can hit it, it's not bad!" A Linbao was very clear about the condition of the fort that he set up, and he looked embarrassed.

"You stupid slave!" Ehri was in a good mood, and cursed with a smile. "Doesn't your master know the quality of those cannons? I asked those who are familiar with this section of the river. The river in this area is shallow, and there is a lot of mud and sand, and there are many shoals. Li Huamei's big boats must be extra careful when walking. If you don't pay attention, you will run aground. The fort is firing on the shore, not just to hit them, but to harass them, huh..." Ehri forcefully made a strangled motion with both hands.

Allin Bao nodded. "Master, this servant understands! They are firing artillery on the shore, and the Nanman Navy must be careful to avoid it. If they are not careful, they may run aground. When the time comes, our boat can fire and jump gangs!"

"Then hurry up?!"

The flag was waved, the suona sounded, and the formation of the Qing fleet began to change.

Dozens of gunboats gave way to the left and right wings, and more than 100 small boats rushed out of the fleet like hyenas, galloping across the river.Most of these small boats are long dragons and fast crabs, all of which are recruited from the canal and river defense camps in Lianghuai and other places.In addition to the sailors driving the boats, the main one was carrying a gun, and more than a dozen Qing soldiers were on board.

Their task was to wait for Li Huamei's naval fleet to approach, then rush into the fleet and bombard the deck of the naval ship with guns, killing the sailors and sailors on the deck.

"If any of your servants is lucky enough to overthrow Duke Liang's princess and empress with a cannonball, maybe the emperor's father and regent master in Beijing will also give you a red belt around your waist!" This is Eheli's pre-war mobilization I said to those who carried the guns.

Cao Zhenyan's fame and wealth are now a huge benchmark in the Qing Dynasty, especially in the Eight Banners.Everyone wants to make great achievements in the military, and then transform into a master in a blink of an eye.

Now that such a great military achievement is in front of him, how can he not make the gunmen jealous? !Even the sailors who sailed for them were full of energy.

"My general said, you slave, you have no rules! Why didn't you kneel down and kowtow to pay respects to the old master, instead of being so presumptuous?!"

In the county seat of Shanghai, officers and soldiers of the Hongwu Army responded loudly to the challenge of the Qing army.

From his uncle Li Peiting, Li Huabao heard a lot of secrets about the Li family in Tieling and the Nurhachi family. In the past, it was just a chat after dinner, but today he uses it as a weapon to "piss people off".
