  Chapter 305 303 [Soldiers kill through Zhejiang without bloodshed] (addition for book friends who subscribe to vote)

   Yanzhou government officials have already run away ahead of time.

  There is only one Yanzhou Tuiguan left, and one Jiande magistrate.

  The battle is imminent, Xiong Fenwei, governor of Zhejiang, is paying homage to a memorial arch in the city.

   That is the Sanyuanfang of Shanglu, the only Sanyuan and No. 1 scholar in the Ming Dynasty-there is another one that was removed.

   Worshiping the sages is just one of them. If Xiong Fenwei wants to gain the support of the Shang family, he must show enough respect for Shang Ren.

  I don't want your respect!

  The merchants were about to cry. They would rather wait for the land to be divided than accompany the governor to resist.

  Shang's hometown is in Chun'an County, and those who moved to Yanzhou Prefecture all make a living by doing business, because there are not many acres of land in Yanzhou!

  Since the family has no land to divide, why resist Zhao Tianwang?

   "Fujun, Bandit Zhao is here!"

  The worship ceremony ended hastily, and Xiong Fenwei hurried to defend the city.

  The military talker who had impeached several ministers of the Ministry of War hurriedly boarded the tower, and he saw the fleet coming from Dongyang River (Lanjiang).

   Not long after, the fleet suddenly turned and went straight to the west.

  The vanguard of 3,000 people didn't care about Yanzhou, a strategic place where the three rivers converge.

  Go upstream along the river, the next city is Chun'an, and the next city is Huizhou!

  It belongs to the headquarters of Huizhou merchants, and many merchants secretly informed Zhao Han. If you go there, you can seize the city. After Huizhou is captured, all Huizhou merchants in Yangzhou will definitely come here.

   "This is, going to Chun'an?" Xiong Fenwei muttered.

  Chen Liangbi, magistrate of Jiande County, said: "I must go to Chun'an, but I don't know if Chun'an can be kept."

  Chen Liangbi was more unlucky. He should have been reused. When the Qing soldiers went south, he supported the defense of Nanjing alone. But in this time and space, Chen Liangbi was released because his hometown had been occupied by Zhao Han.

Xiong Fenwei said confidently: "It doesn't matter if Chun'an is lost. As long as the capital city of Yanzhou is still there, the Zhao thieves will not dare to go straight to Hangzhou. This is the main road where the three rivers converge. If they leave without taking Yanzhou, the Zhao thieves will be in danger of being cut off. .”

  Chen Liangbi hesitated to speak, and didn't know how to refute.

The more Xiong Fenwei said, the more confident he became: "The bandit Zhao is a man who knows how to fight. He can't tolerate any loss of food and morals, so he will definitely attack Yanzhou's capital. As long as he storms the capital, he will fall into the trap. Our army lacks training and dare not go out to fight in the city, but The preparations are sufficient, the defense of the city is more than sufficient, and the bandits of Zhao will lose their troops and generals in Yanzhou."

   "The Fu army is strategizing, and Zhuge Kongming's resurrection is nothing more than that!" Yanzhou pusher Feng Bingqing flattered him.

  Xiong Fenwei smiled and looked at the river, stroking his beard quite contentedly.

   At noon the next day, Zhao Han's main force arrived.

  Zhao Han took out the binoculars, observed the situation, and ordered: "Search for ships along the way, regardless of this city, go directly to Tonglu County."

  So, the overwhelming main fleet did not stay in Yanzhou Fucheng, but went down the river to Tonglu, and took all the ships along the river with them when they left.

  Looking at the clean surface of the river, Xiong Fenwei was dumbfounded, and muttered to himself, "Why didn't Bandit Zhao come to attack the city?"

   Attack a fart city!

  Yanzhou Fucheng is located at the mouth of the Sanjiang River, facing the river on three sides and the mountain on the other side. The officers and soldiers are still well-prepared here, stationed in a large army to defend the city, and will attack forcibly if their brains are sick.

  As for the grain road...

  Chen Liangbi, magistrate of Jiande County, sighed dejectedly: "Commander, we have been cut off from food supply, and our escape route has also been cut off."

   "This... this..." Xiong Fenwei was so anxious that he almost cried, "This is so good!"

  Yanzhou City is located between mountains, except for three rivers to communicate with the outside world, only one mountain valley is feasible.

  Now, the south side has been occupied by Zhao Han, and the vanguard troops are attacking the west side. Zhao Han went to the northeast side by himself, taking away all the ships on the river by the way. The channels of the three rivers were all blocked by Zhao Han, and the army recruited by the governor of Zhejiang was directly trapped in the isolated city of Yanzhou.

  You can also walk, from the mountain valley, slowly cross the mountains and cross the river to return to Tonglu, by then Tonglu County has already been defeated by Zhao Han.

  Of course, you can also walk west along the river to chase the 3,000 vanguard troops that have become part of the division. Even if they catch up, they will probably be beaten up and wiped out in Chun'an County, which has not yet formed Qiandao Lake.

  In the corner of a section of the city wall.

   Two military officers are discussing secretly, they are all hereditary generals of the Weisuo. From childhood to adulthood, he has only fought sporadic small groups of rebels, and he doesn't even bother to support his servants. He only has a group of bullying domestic slaves under his command.

  This time Xiong Fenwei recruited troops to defend against the enemy, but due to the lack of military officers, he recruited all these people to fill up the number.

  Gan Qinwei tapped the shredded tobacco into a pipe, lit it and smoked a few puffs, sighed and said: "This Xiong Fujun, when he talks about military affairs, he is very sensible, so he is just talking about military affairs on paper."

"Give me a puff," Chou Shan took a puff, and said, "We are doomed. No matter where we go, we will be waited for by the Zhao thief, and maybe we will be ambushed halfway. If we defend Yanzhou city , the Zhao bandits will go straight to Hangzhou, and when they hear that their hometown has been captured and the fields are still being divided, the whole army will be defeated without fighting."

"Fuck off the governor," Gan Qinwei said through gritted teeth, "Let him garrison troops to defend Hangzhou. He insists on bringing out the army, saying that he is guarding strategically important areas. Fortunately, Zhao thief swaggered past, and he didn't meet many people all the way to Hangzhou." A soldier. Maybe it only takes half a month, and the city of Hangzhou will be taken by him."

Qiu Shan lowered his voice: "Now we have only one way, link up with the generals of various ministries, join hands to kill the governor, and dedicate Yanzhou City to the thief Zhao. With this credit, maybe we can save our wealth and lives, after all, we bullied the military households so much It's miserable, Zhao thief is helping the military household to speak."

  Gan Qinwei said: "Then contact each other separately, and don't leak the news."

  …

   Zhao Han's main force has arrived in Tonglu County in a blink of an eye.

  Just landed and put on a posture, Tonglu county magistrate surrendered directly, because he had only a few hundred Xiangyong under his command.

  Zhao Han sent out a partial division to attack Xincheng, Fenshui, Yuqian, and Changhua along the river, and led the main force to take Hangzhou along the Fuchun River.

   This is the fourth time he has divided his troops, and he doesn't pay attention to the Zhejiang army at all.

  The main force of Zhejiang officers and soldiers is all in Yanzhou City. Without a ship, it is difficult to travel by land, and I put myself in a dead end.

   Zhao Han thought it was funny when he thought about it, and Governor Xiong Fenwei was simply insane.

  Before he dispatched troops, he never dreamed that the enemy coach could make such a showy operation. This is like playing LOL, the five enemies are all squatting in the dragon pit to ambush. Our army did not go to fight the dragon, but only sent one person to block the pit, and the rest gathered and rushed straight to the high ground. And the five idiots on the opposite side were stuck in the big dragon pit and couldn't get out.

  When Zhao Han's army arrived in Hangzhou, the officers and soldiers were still arguing about where to go.

  Hangzhou magistrate Shi Wancheng, sitting on a tall and sturdy city tower, watched the enemy fleet approaching the river, and couldn't help sighing: "Are you waiting to surrender?"

   "Don't dare." All the officials answered quickly.

Shi Wancheng smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, Zhao Bandit is not a person who kills indiscriminately. My hometown Xiangtan was occupied last year. The tribe wrote to say that Zhao Bandit only divided the land and didn't take any of the family's floating wealth. Even if they borrowed food, they would issue an IOU. "

   All the officials were dumbfounded.

   "Surrender if you want, I will take you to surrender together." Shi Wancheng smiled sadly.

  All the officials immediately said: "I would like to follow the Fu Zun."

  Shi Wancheng sighed: "Oh, I can't control the power of the Hangzhou Mansion. The villain still needs to be tortured by the villain, so let the Zhao thief come and punish him severely!"

  This magistrate is a gentleman.

  When he was the magistrate of Huizhou, because of the timber produced in Huangshan, the **** party paid a timber tax of 30,000 taels a year. Shi Wancheng took the magistrate of She County to visit and investigate in person, and found that the annual tax of 30,000 taels would make the timber merchants lose everything.

  At that time, the **** party was powerful, and Shi Wancheng didn't dare to provoke him, and he didn't want to be a minion for the tiger, so he simply hung up his seal and resigned from office and returned to his hometown, but was dismissed by the **** party.

  This old man has a lot of deeds, and even the magistrate does not accept money as a rule.

  Haining tycoon Wu Zhongyan, because of his many crimes, the former governor ordered an investigation. As a result, the governor was dismissed instead.

  The people were so angry that they surrounded Wu's house, they were convicted of rebellion by the procuratorate, and a bunch of people were arrested and imprisoned.

  Shi Wancheng went to Hangzhou to take office, immediately arrested Wu Zhongyan, and refused Wu's bribe of ten thousand taels of silver. The lawsuit went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he was asked to try it again, and the Wu family also had people in the central government. He resisted the pressure from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and cut Wu Zhongyan off.

  Nowadays, there are pirates on the sea, they often go ashore to plunder, and the army's military equipment is swallowed up by the soldiers. The Zhejiang navy is already rotten.

   Zhao Han came again on land, and the governor took all the troops away, and even emptied the Hangzhou government treasury.

   There are also tyrants who do many evils, colluding with the inspector to fight against the magistrate, Shi Wancheng has long been disheartened in the face of a lot of bad things.

   Then surrender, anyway, the hometown has been occupied, and the clansmen have already been thieves.

  Shi Wancheng ordered to open the door and offer the city, this move made Zhao Han dumbfounded. From Quzhou to Hangzhou, they directly smashed through the middle of Zhejiang, and they didn't even fight a single battle. Only a few of the wounded in the army were sick with colds.

   "Zhu Zi'an dares to follow the thief!"

  Another section of the city wall, Zhejiang Zuo Buzheng Li Quantai, was furious when he found out that the rebels had entered the city.

  Li Quantai said to the officials and Xiangyong around him: "My sons, follow me to kill the thieves and drive the rebels out of Hangzhou City!"

   "Kill!"

  Li Quantai personally raised the knife and led the soldiers to charge, preparing to fight the rebels in street fighting.

   As he rushed, he found that there was no one around him.

   "Come back, come back and kill the thieves!" Li Quantai turned around and shouted, suddenly felt sad, and sat on the ground slumped and wept.

   After an unknown amount of time, Shi Wancheng, who surrendered the city, accompanied Zhao Han to this place.

  Shi Wancheng pointed to Li Quantai and said, "General Town, this is Li Zhuowu's nephew."

  Li Zhi's nephew?

  Looking at him like that, he was actually a loyal minister of Ming Dynasty.

  Zhao Han ordered: "Don't worry about him, let him go if you want to go."

  Zhao Han left with his troops, Li Quantai slowly got up, staggered towards the outside of the city, and went back to his hometown to live in seclusion.

  Zheng Sen followed behind Zhao Han, looked at the bustling streets of Hangzhou, and said in disbelief: "It's such a magnificent city, why did you take it like this?"

  Zhang Jiayu said with a smile: "There are not many soldiers in Hangzhou. The main force of the officers and soldiers in Zhejiang has been taken by the governor to defend Yanzhou. I don't know where they have returned to at this time."

  Huang Zongxi couldn't help sighing: "That Governor Xiong, it's really... hard to describe."

   "The army in the town is still very powerful, and the officers and soldiers dare not fight at all. Otherwise, how could it be so easy?" Kuang Lu told the truth.
