Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 81 Jinzhou Falls
This time the naval battle still relied entirely on the power of motorboats and gasoline saws. These pirates did not contribute much, and their losses were greatly reduced. Almost no one was killed and the Qing army was completely dealt with.

The enemy, including Geng Zhongming, still has 400 people left, but there are still 2000 pirate soldiers on his side.Although it cannot be said that there is no shortage of one, it is relatively not consumed.According to Zhu Changyuan's idea, [-] of these guys should die. I didn't expect Geng Zhongming to be so unsuitable, so he couldn't help but beat him.

Well, it's because he has no soldiers under his command. In fact, Geng Zhongming still has a way of fighting sea battles.

The corpses of the Qing army floating on the sea were salvaged one by one by the pirate soldiers. After searching for their belongings, even the clothes on the corpses were not spared. When they found suitable cloth armor and iron armor, they took off those corpses and put them on. himself.No way, although these pirate soldiers usually don't have to worry about food and clothing, they don't have any formal equipment at all.

"Okay, brothers, let's go to the island to grab things!" Zhu Changyuan gave an order, and those Fusang devils actually worshiped them as gods, and immediately stopped all kinds of actions in their hands, and boarded and landed in a uniform order. No matter what they saw, Then began the unscrupulous berserk.

After robbing a large circle, the pirates didn't bother to move anymore.

The reason is simple. Apart from houses and tents, there is a small amount of military rations on Phi Island, and there is almost nothing else. By the way, there is also a Zheng He treasure ship, but it has been controlled by Ma Hai in advance.

Grandma's is so poor.Zhu Changyuan couldn't stand it anymore, he kicked the ass of Geng Zhongming, who was tied up beside him, and said, "The tartars treat you like this, you don't even give you enough food, and you still follow him to work hard, really convinced you These idiots."

Geng Zhongming remained silent, his face was pale, and he closed his eyes without saying a word.

Zhu Changyuan didn't bother him anymore, and gathered in the center of the big island with many soldiers to start counting.

There are still more than 3000 pirate soldiers on my side, and 500 people were captured by the Qing army, which is almost the same number as the pirate soldiers I brought before.

Geng Zhongming did not surrender, and Zhu Changyuan did not execute him immediately.As for the soldiers of the Qing army, they were not so spineless, and they surrendered to Zhu Changyuan one after another.

These soldiers were originally Han Chinese, and they all spoke Chinese. Many of them have family members in the Shandong area. They had no choice but to surrender with Geng Zhongming. Now that they can return to the Ming army, many of them are still clapping their hands happily. At least they will go home in the future. Hopeful.

In addition to the personnel, I counted the spoils, a Zheng He treasure ship, then several large warships, and many small boats, with almost no supplies, and then there is a site like Phi Island.

Zhu Changyuan's face suddenly became bitter, almost crying, he could only howl silently in his heart: I really don't want to defeat you to occupy this broken island of yours.

Phi Island is located at the mouth of the Yalu River. The island is not small, but it is covered with exposed bedrock, which cannot be cultivated, and it is too close to the mainland.Huang Taiji is currently attacking Jinzhou wholeheartedly, and he has no spare time to clean himself up. If he frees up his hands, he will stop with a slap.

The point is, is it useless for me to occupy this island!
Hot potato, why don't we just leave here, and we don't want this island?But this is not in line with our character, the key is not to be reconciled, the hard-earned things cannot be cheaper for others.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Here Zhu Changyuan is still worrying about how to deal with the island he just occupied. There is another person thousands of miles away who has more headaches than him.

Chongzhen!

Standing up from the dragon chair suddenly, he threw the memorial in his hand forward and threw it on the hall.

"Your servants have misled me and my country. There are fifty thousand garrisons and reinforcements in the huge city of Jinzhou, and it was lost to me after only guarding for a month. Who is defending it?"

All the ministers knelt down under the Highness tremblingly, their heads touching the ground and pounding garlic non-stop.Wen Tiren, the chief assistant of the cabinet, said: "Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down! The Mongol Tartars and the Jiankui joined forces, and there were a total of 13 troops. Although Jinzhou City was breached, it still defended for more than [-] days. The soldiers did their best. ah."

Chongzhen laughed out loud, but his face was as gloomy as water. He walked to His Highness step by step, starting from where Wen Tiren was, and staggered forward. The dragon robe dragged the floor, bringing out the voice of Sasha, which was heard in the hearts of all the officials. Frightened and heartbroken, many people believed that Chongzhen would be furious this time and would wash all officials with blood.

But Chongzhen didn't do anything, just walked to the gate of the palace like an old man, frowned and looked coldly at the bright sky in a decadent manner.

"Is this all my fault? Is it because my destiny is not enough to assume the position?" Chongzhen couldn't help muttering to himself, suspecting himself: "Since I ascended the throne, I haven't had a good night's sleep, and I haven't had a bad night. Work hard for the country. In the first year of Chongzhen, there was a severe drought in Guanzhong, and there were thousands of miles of barren land where no grass grew, and the whole of Shaanxi was as red as blood."

"In the five years of Chongzhen, there was a great hunger in the world. The bones of the dead were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. There were people who changed their sons and ate them."

"In the sixth year of Chongzhen, the Yellow River flooded and submerged 22 counties in the Central Plains."

"In the seventh year of Chongzhen, autumn locusts rushed to the sky, and there was no harvest in Sichuan, Shanxi, Shanxi and Henan."

"In the eighth year of Chongzhen, there was a drought in the west and floods in the east. Numerous houses in Luoyang were destroyed, and the people could not live. In September, the Shaanxi earthquake."

The more Chongzhen spoke, the louder his voice seemed to express his dissatisfaction with the sky.

"In the ninth year of Chongzhen, drought locusts in Henan."

"In the ten years of Chongzhen, there was no autumn harvest in Shandong."

"This year, just two days ago, I just received the memorial, and the locusts in Shaanxi covered the sky..."

"In the first year of Chongzhen, Yuan Chonghuan told me that the whole Liao Dynasty could be restored in five years. I cut down on food and clothing. As for Gong Zhen, what did I get in return? It was a deception!"

"Heaven doesn't help me, I don't blame heaven. But you and other officials, eating the king's salary and taking the people's fat, can't help me. Could this mean that Ming Dynasty is about to perish?"

Before Chongzhen finished speaking, he sat on the ground in a decadent manner, leaning against a big red pillar, and looked at the court in front of him weakly.

"His Majesty!"

The ministers wailed and cried bitterly.One by one, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic.

Chongzhen didn't look back, "Sometimes I really want to fall asleep and don't want to wake up. I don't care about life and death, I am afraid that if I become a king of subjugation, why would I meet my father, brother and ancestors under the nine springs, and why would I meet the emperor Taizu face to face? .”

"Your Majesty." All the ministers cried bitterly.

"Your Majesty, cheer up!" Wen Tiren knelt behind Emperor Chongzhen, knelt down firmly on the ground, pulled the end of the emperor's dragon robe with his hands, and wept bitterly to persuade him.

After a long time, Chongzhen let out a long sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "Zhu Changyuan was trapped in the Dalinghe military camp for more than 400 days with less than [-] people. There was no aid or food. Jianlu had no choice but to abandon the city and rush to Jinzhou. .I just want to ask you, how did he do it?"

All the ministers are silent!
