Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

46. ​​Huang Fangshi

"Wuwu, 17th year (Ming Yongli 32nd year) in the spring and February, the Ming recruited the son of the great general Zheng Jing, and Liu Guoxuan, the right military guard, was the admiral and governor of the army; the later admiral Wu Shu, the deputy, led the division to Haicheng .

After the loss of the seven counties, Dunbing Island.At that time, Governor Lang Tingxiang, Haicheng Gong Huang Fangshi, and Deputy Commander Hu Tu stationed troops in Zhangzhou, Huanglan Town Haicheng, and divided them into Yuzhou, Shima and other forts.On the tenth day of the lunar new year, the Guoxuan governor went to Haicheng, broke through Yuzhou, Sanchahe, and Fuhu; in search of the Jiangdong Bridge, the guards Wang Chonglu and Lu Tao collapsed.When reinforcements from Shiquan and Zhang arrived, Guoxuan divided his troops to meet them.On that day, Guoxuan won all three battles, and the voice of the army was loud.On the [-]rd night, the stone yard was taken, and the defenders Liu Fu and Yang Chaozong were captured, and the army was at the top of Zushan to force Haicheng.Meng An, the deputy general of Manchuria, came to help from the tide, Guoxuan retreated to the stone yard, dredged Hao and built the wall and refused to defend; so he divided his troops to garrison Guowai in Zhangzhou.

It was a battle, and Su Jue, the general of the Guoxuan Department, was defeated, and he cut him off in favor of others, and all the generals trembled; "

-------------- Min Hai Minutes

Under the sky, a relatively large fleet in this time and space is moored on the shore. The densely packed boats travel between the fleet and the mainland like a swarm of bees, bringing thousands of Ming Zheng soldiers together with their armored ordnance Even war horses, cannons, etc. were sent to the beach one by one.Under the command of each other's officers, the hundred officers and soldiers who landed in advance left the crowded beach and marched into the depths of the mainland one by one in an orderly formation.

Thanks to the war and the order to seal the border, the huge movement caused by the enthusiastic landing of thousands of Zheng Jun did not attract the attention of outsiders. In just half a day, this army of thousands of people disappeared into the rolling valleys. deep land.Seeing that the friendly troops they carried had already landed, Mingzheng's fleet also put away the boat, and quietly headed north under the gradually westward sun.

On the second day after the Ming and Zheng landing troops landed, a larger Qing army was heading south from the official road not far from the beach, holding colorful flags.Due to the urgency of the battle and the remoteness of the war zone, the general commanding the Qing army did not carefully send people to search both sides of the official road, but impatiently asked his subordinates to speed up their pace as much as possible.

Suddenly, without any warning, bows and arrows shot towards the avenue like a torrential rain, and at the same time, the roar of the cannon began to resound.When the Qing army, who had been beaten to death by lead, bows and arrows, let out a dying scream, Zheng Jun, who had been ambushing on both sides of the official road in advance, rushed out screaming.

The Qing army, which was shocked by the sudden blow, quickly collapsed, and even the generals of the Qing army who drew their swords and killed several deserters finally had to flee under the cover of their own soldiers.Taking advantage of the collapse of the Qing army, Zheng Jun concealed the killing for a while, and then packed up some grain, armor, cannons, horses and gunpowder as trophies, and then disappeared into the rolling hills to the north, leaving only hundreds of dead bodies here The Qing army was waiting to decay miserably.

"Where is Liu Guoxuan!" Ninghai General Laha was furious in his camp. "Five days ago, it was reported that a battalion of generals in the Duan Yingju Department was defeated on the way to Shuitou in Quannan. Four days ago, it was reported that the deputy general of Xinghua was ambushed by him on the way to Nanpu in Jingquanbei. The foreign official road in Chendai Town in the northeast of Zhao'an was attacked, could it be that Liu Guoxuan can fly? What are you guys doing for food!"

"My lord, from my servant's point of view, it's not Liu Guoxuan who can fly, but Zheng Ni's sailors." The governor Yang Xi, who was walking with the army, stroked his one-foot-long beard and analyzed in this way. "With the help of boats, Zheng Ni can travel day and night, and the boats can take advantage of the power of the water and the wind to far surpass the strength of men and horses, so they can travel from south to north, attacking the unpreparedness of all armies."

"Navy division? Another navy division." Although Laha considers himself to be superior to others, Yang Xi, a second-rank official in frontiers, does not dare to give color to Yang Xi. Worry comes. "My lord's supervision of the navy has not been completed so far, but Zheng Ni was able to attack calmly. This, this is so good."

Yang Xi's analysis of the problem was okay, but he couldn't solve it. He hesitated for a long time before he said: "The current plan is to proceed cautiously. , but it is better than acting recklessly and losing troops and generals."

"That's the only way." Laha had a similar idea long ago, but with his rough appearance, he was actually cunning by nature and did not want to take responsibility for the delay of the march, so he thought of a way to get this sentence out of Yang Xi's mouth. "It's my mother's, I don't believe it anymore, when he joins Quanzhou Luying, Liu Guoxuan still has such a good mouth, he will eat tens of thousands of people at once."

"The Tartar reinforcements on both sides of the north and south have suffered a lot. Now they stop three times a day. I guess they will not dare to act rashly for a while. But Huang Fangshi has the arrogance to defeat the white-clothed army, so I decided to use this guy to try next. knife."

The white-clothed army that Liu Guoxuan said was an anti-Qing armed force supported by Ming and Zheng. Its leader, Zhu Yin, was from Zhangpu and was originally a cult member.Zheng Jun was defeated last year, and this person came out and called the third prince Zhu---there were more than a dozen of the third prince Zhu killed in the Guang Shunzhi and Kangxi dynasties. The people --- took in many remnants of the Zheng army, and then fought several battles with the Qing army, winning more and losing less, and it gradually became a climate.Because the logo of the Ministry is to wrap the head in white clothes, it was called the White Clothes Army by the Ming Dynasty and the Zheng Dynasty.

But Huang Fangshi didn't think so. He thought that if he could defeat the white-clothed army of ten thousand people, he would be able to compete with the same number of Zheng Jun, so he took the initiative to attack when the rest of the Qing army were all working hard, and prepared to challenge Zheng Jun. The main force, it is good to take credit for Kang Mazi and at the same time avenge his family.

Of course, Huang Fangshi also knew that his army might be a little bit behind Liu Guoxuan's, so his plan was to build a camp and defend it, preparing to become an iron walnut that could not be crushed or crushed, and then surrounded him on all sides so that the middle would bloom.However, Huang Fangdu obviously did not have the experience of Zheng Kezang's two generations as a human being. He didn't know that being an iron walnut would have to pay a very heavy price, especially when his relationship with various Manchurian generals is like that of the later generations who finally hoped that others Seeing that Commander Zhang is the same as the one who pulled him out of face, the price is quite high.

On the second day of March, about [-] men from the Laita Division of the Qing Army on the West Road, who arrived late, set up their formations behind the city on the Chiling Line in the east of Zhangzhou City, hoping to fight to the death with the besieged Zheng Army Division.But Liu Guoxuan had already made up his mind to avoid the truth and ignore the truth. He used Huang Fang's family as a knife, and deliberately set fire to the camp outside Zhangzhou City, making the illusion of withdrawing troops.The vigor of the Qing army when it entered the customs has long since disappeared after more than [-] years of corruption. Seeing the siege of Zhangzhou, the uncle Manchuria and the second master of the Lvying naturally did not want to fight head-on with Zheng Jun, so they entered with peace of mind. Zhangzhou rested and watched Liu Guoxuan's troops safely withdraw from Zhangdong.But they never thought that Liu Guoxuan actually shot a feint. He had just withdrawn from Zhangdong, and then rushed to Shuitou again, and surrounded Huang Fangshi's army stationed in Shuitou Town in one fell swoop.

"Fire the cannon!" With an order, the rumbling sound of the cannon announced the beginning of Shuitou's encirclement and annihilation. Although Huang Fangshi sent many envoys to ask for help before he was besieged, the distance between the neighbors was far away. None of them are interested in giving their lives to save his team that will be abolished after the war, so he has already predetermined the bitter fruit of failure.

Driven by the huge kinetic energy of the gunpowder burning, the hot lead bullets quickly broke through the thin town gate and smashed the weak town wall to pieces.The moment the town gate burst, thousands of Zheng Jun pushed past with shields and newly built ladders.

The Huang army on the town wall fired bows and arrows and firecrackers desperately, as if this could stop Zheng's attack.However, under the threat of artillery fire, the calmness of the archers of the Huang Army has completely disappeared. Except for a few arrows and blunderbusses shot with trembling hands, all of them ended in failure.

It was approaching, and Zheng Jun's artillery fire had stopped, but before Huang Jun recovered, he could improve his shooting skills, and the ladder had already been erected.Under the nearby cover of the forward archers and musketeers, hundreds of Zheng Jun, holding rattan cards and sharp knives in one file, rushed to the wall, and the fight began immediately.

The Huang army faced the generals of the Zheng army with long spears and broadswords, but they rarely joined forces to fight against the enemy due to lack of training. As a result, they were divided, defeated, and dispersed by the smaller Zheng army instead.When the fierce battle on the top of the city was in full swing, Zheng Jun, who was carrying the logs as the siege pillar, had already used the gap in the suppression of the firepower at the top of the city to smash open the town gate that had been broken under the artillery fire, and successfully cleared the gate The rear obstacle covered and killed it.

Seeing that Zheng Jun had rushed in from the south gate, Huang Fangshi's ambition turned into uncontrollable fear. He was afraid that what happened to his brother Huang Fangdu would happen to him. He completely lost his courage, and he didn't care about commanding his subordinates to resist Zheng. Instead, he drove his confidants and servants to break through the unbroken North Town Gate and flee.

Huang Fangshi, who fled on horseback, had no time to look back to see what Shuitou Town looked like after the fall. He knew that there were pursuers behind him. He hugged the horse's neck and desperately clamped the stirrups. It was because of his legs that he fell to the ground and threw Huang Fangshi out.

The so-called misfortunes never come singly, Huang Fangshi, who fell dizzy, had no time to stand up from the ground, and the horses of the servants around him passed him, but in fact, many iron hooves fell on him.The unlucky Huang Fangshi completely fainted from the pain. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the servant hurriedly reined in his horse to rescue him, and then ran away before the pursuers arrived.

It was Liu Guoxuan's regret that he didn't catch Huang Fangshi in the battle of Shuitou, but this regret was quickly made up by the news that came. Huang Fangshi, who was angry, anxious and hurt, finally did not block the call of death, and died a month after the battle of Shuitou died.

Although the old enemy Huang Fangshi died, Duan Yingju and tens of thousands of Manchurian soldiers and Green Battalion soldiers arrived at last. Before Liu Guoxuan had time to celebrate his victory, a more intense battle was imminent
