Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 280 The Second Eastern Expedition ([-])

When Zhang Liansheng led a large army to the junction of Ningguo Mansion and Changhua County, the waterway was blocked and the army went ashore.At this time, he received two pieces of information.One is that the reactionary landlords' armed forces in Changhua, Yuqian, Lin'an and other places are extremely active, and they are constantly attacking the political institutions just established by the Security Corps.Another piece of information is that the city of Hangzhou was taken down, but all the important treasury institutions were burned by the Tartars, and nearly [-]% of the city was also burned.The residents had no food to use. In order to help them, Lin Jiawang used military rations.It's just that there are too many soldiers and civilians in the city, even if the military rations are used, it won't last long. I hope that the large troops will go to Hangzhou as soon as possible. The most important thing is that the food transportation team will go to Hangzhou to help.

Zhang Liansheng felt very regretful after learning that all the property in Hangzhou had been burned.Hangzhou City is also a famous historical city, not inferior to Jinling in terms of wealth.It's just that this is the case now, and it's useless to lament.And once in Hangzhou, the situation in Zhejiang has changed again.Zhang Liansheng never thought that the Tatars would be so timid that they would not even dare to defend the city.But it is a good thing that the Tartars dare not defend the city, at least they have begun to fear.

Originally, Jinli concentrated almost all of his troops in Hangzhou City in order to defend the city. Now that he abandoned Hangzhou, most of his troops have dispersed. Therefore, the Yanzhou Prefecture, Shaoxing Prefecture, Jinhua Prefecture, and Quzhou Prefecture that belonged to Jin Li originally belonged to the city. , Chuzhou capital is in a state of empty troops.After that, the army of the security regiment no longer had to work hard to attack the city, but turned into a march.

Immediately, Zhang Liansheng divided three more columns to go south. Among them, the [-]nd Column went to Yanzhou Mansion before. Now Zhang Liansheng sent the [-]th Column to Yanzhou Mansion, and then the [-]rd Column and Nearly [-]st Column went to Jinhua Mansion.In this way, there are two columns in one prefecture, among which Yanzhou prefecture has the [-]th column and the [-]nd column, and Jinhua prefecture has the [-]th and [-]rd column and the near one column.Zhang Liansheng personally commanded the remaining May [-]st Column, nearly [-]nd Column, nearly [-]rd Column, nearly [-]th Column, and nearly [-]th Column, with a remaining strength of nearly [-].

As for the armed counterattack of the reactionary landlords in the various counties of Hangzhou Prefecture, it was nothing at all. When Zhang Liansheng's [-] troops crushed them all the way, these people were either killed or all arrested and sent to labor camps. What awaited them was Infrastructure construction in Zhejiang Province.

In order to avoid this from happening, Zhang Liansheng asked several captains to be stricter in cleaning up the place.Just one sentence is the life and death of tens of thousands of families.After a person's status reaches a certain height, just one look can be related to the wealth and lives of countless people. This is the glory of the superior and the sorrow of the lower class.This is even more so in today's chaotic world.

So the Second Front Army divided its troops again, and tens of thousands of horses rolled towards the south, all the way to Fenshui, Xincheng, Tonglu and other counties.Together with the 20 civilians who support their logistics, the huge force can almost conquer a province.

Sweeping all the way like this, Zhang Liansheng led an army of [-] to the city of Hangzhou.At this time, Zhang Chengwu also rushed over with the first army, and the city of Hangzhou was crowded with soldiers, and the red flag almost covered the sky for a while.

At this time, Jin Li led the troops and fled all the way south until Chuzhou Prefecture, where they stopped.Along the way, the [-] elite soldiers ran away and scattered hundreds of people, and now only [-] are left.But the main generals Wu Rujie and Ma Jinbao are still there.Wu Rujie's command was originally the Eight Banners army stationed in Hangzhou City, but after several years of fighting, the Eight Banners army under his command had already suffered heavy losses.Moreover, Wu Rujie was only a bannerman of the Han army, and after being abandoned by the court, he turned his head and leaned on Jin Li wholeheartedly.So this time he suggested that Jin Li give up Hangzhou and flee to Chuzhou with Jin Li.Chuzhou's capital was already close to Fujian, and it was five or six hundred miles away from Hangzhou, so Jin Li felt a little relieved.And he didn't want to completely lose the territory of Zhejiang and go to Fujian to live under the fence.After all, if you have your own territory, even relying on others can make people value you more.Chuzhou is the northern barrier of Fujian, and Jin Li believes that Geng Jimao will strongly support him.

Jin Li temporarily escaped, but the Lu Dynasty's court in Ningbo Mansion seemed like a huge wave.The courtiers either asked the King of Lu to summon the newly descended Ming Zhong Gong Geng Jimao, Ming De Gong Shang Kexi and others to rescue him, or asked the King of Lu to take the court to Zhoushan, or asked the King of Lu to go south to Fujian to avoid the security forces. This attack.

Regarding the courtiers' suggestions, King Lu also panicked, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"How did this happen? How did this happen? Don't we have a good relationship with the security team?" King Lu murmured.

Although the security team was preparing to attack Jin Li and Huang Zongxi's mediation failed, King Lu recalled Huang Zongxi to Ningbo at the suggestion of his courtiers.However, King Lu did not expect that the security regiment would capture Hangzhou at that time, and the soldiers pointed directly at Shaoxing and even Ningbo.

Hangzhou is only [-] miles away from Ningbo, especially Shaoxing Mansion between Hangzhou Mansion and Ningbo Mansion. group.Now that nearly a million troops from the security regiment have entered Zhejiang, how can they resist?How to resist?

Just when King Lu was breaking out in cold sweat, Zhang Mingzhen stood up.

"My lord, at this moment of peril, our army is united in public, and we will fight to the death with the gangsters!"

As soon as the words were said, Zhang Kentang, a bachelor, objected.

"Dingxihou, that's a mistake. Our military strength is less than [-], and the bandits sent millions of troops this time. How can we resist? Rather than sacrifice in vain, it is better to save our strength and go to Zhoushan. Although the bandits are powerful on land, But their navy ships are not many, and they cannot attack Zhoushan."

"Yes, what Master Zhang said is very true." Liu Shixun, Wang Shan and others responded in agreement.

"Flee, escape, where else can we escape at this time?" Zhang Huangyan also stood up and said.

As soon as Zhang Huangyan said this, everyone fell silent.It has been nearly ten years, and everyone has fled all the way. Now that they finally have a small base, they really don't want to escape.It's just that the enemy is so powerful this time, can they fight without running?
"Zhang Shilang, this time it's not the Tartars who are attacking, but the security team. After all, the security team is also a member of our clan. If there is something that cannot be done, no, no, let's surrender. It is much better than surrendering the Tartars." Zuo Dudu Zhang Mingyang gritted his teeth and said.

Hearing this, Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan were taken aback, and hurriedly said to King Lu.

"My lord, surrender is absolutely unacceptable. Has the lord forgotten the bandit policy?"

Hearing this, King Lu was shocked, and immediately gave up the idea of ​​surrendering.So he spoke.

"There is no need to mention the matter of surrender!"
