In early summer, the day dawns quite early, and you can clearly see the surrounding scenery when you arrive at Mao.

In order to be able to go south to Yanping as soon as possible, the broken camp responsible for the feint attack at the West Gate did not even enter the city, and only relied on the infantry of the 3,000 Dragon Guards, and with the cooperation of the people in the city, all the Qing troops stationed in Jian'an were quickly wiped out.

Zhu Linmiao took a company of his own soldiers to symbolically inspect the city, and hussars kept coming to report on the battle situation everywhere.

"Report! Commanding the lord, the granary in the city was intact, and a total of 6,400 stone of grain and rice were seized. Killed 75 prisoners. ”

"Report! The prefect's yamen has been seized by Liu Yingzong, and he is now counting the baggage of the thieves who have been hoarded in it. ”

"Report, a total of 310 people from the Jian'an Inspection Department have abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and they are identifying the hiding place of the thieves for our army."

Zhu Linmiao nodded slightly, and instructed Zhang Jiayu: "Most of the people in the original Jian'an City Inspection Department had to be captured because the officers surrendered, so they can be carefully identified and selected to retain some people who have no bad deeds."

"In addition, some local officials who have not been surrendered from several nearby counties have been transferred, and they have each brought their own servants and regimental training to temporarily manage Jian'an. Our great enemy is at present, and we must not leave too many men to defend the city. ”

"Yes!"

As soon as Zhang Jiayu's words fell, he saw a team of people dressed as Jianyu galloping on horseback, but no one stopped them along the way.

When he got closer, the man in charge lifted the reins sharply, turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee and said to Zhu Linmiao: "The last general will meet His Highness!" "It is Shi Lang, who has been undercover in Jian'an City.

Zhu Linmiao dismounted and helped him up, "The Marquis has made a great contribution this time." He smiled again, "But since you have joined the Dragon Guard, you won't need to use this kneeling salute in the future." ”

Shi Lang then remembered that Zhang Jiayu had taught him how to salute last time when he was in Shaowu, and immediately made a military salute of the Dragon Guard, and said loudly: "Your Highness, the last general captured the puppet prefect Cheng Yi, the puppet historian Li Jian'an and eight puppet officials below in the south of the city. Killed 14 puppet officials under the puppet Tongzhi Wang Ouning. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him, "Bring it here." ”

There were more than a dozen of his generals escorting Cheng Yi and others forward.

Shi Lang glanced at Cheng Yi coldly, and said to Zhu Linmiao: "Your Highness, this is the traitor who went out to welcome a hundred miles when Jianyu entered Fujian, and dedicated the entire Jianning Mansion to Boluo!" ”

Cheng Yi saw Shi Lang talking warmly with the generals of the Ming army, and then he understood the reason, and immediately glared at Shi Lang and shouted: "The surname is Shi, I didn't expect you to betray us!" ”

"Shut up!" Shi Lang slapped it hard, causing Cheng Yi to spurt out a mouthful of blood with his molars, half of his face suddenly turned blue, and he couldn't speak anymore.

"It is possible for such scum to deter the rebels who have surrendered to the world." Zhu Linmiao turned his head to Shi Lin and said, "Inform the whole city and the counties near Jian'an, and in three days, the corpses of these five horses will be divided in front of the prefect's yamen." The ashes were distributed to the Jiangnan Prefecture Governments. ”

"Yes!"

When Cheng Yi heard the words "five horses split the corpses", he was immediately frightened and fainted.

"Your Excellency!" At the corner of the street, dozens of dragoons rode their horses to arrive, and Xia Fu, who was the leader, saluted anxiously before he was far away, "There is no trace of Dahasu in the city. Just now, his subordinates found a secret passage in the south of the city, leading directly to the edge of the moat, and the thief may have escaped from the secret passage. ”

Zhu Linmiao frowned, "Nada Hasu must have fled towards Yanping, and ordered the hussars to quickly pursue to the south. ”

"Yes!" Immediately, a herald went to inform Zhao Shichao.

Subsequently, an order from the Ministry of War was sent to the Ministry of War, which was the same as yesterday's holy decree, asking Chen Wang's troops to go to Quanzhou to capture Zheng Zhilong's lair, and Ruan Qinghao was responsible for the defense of Xianxia Pass.

"We need to hurry, too." Zhu Linmiao said to Zhang Jiayu, "Order the whole army to repair on the spot, and pull out the camp and go south at noon." ”

"Yes!"

……

"General, the Ming army sent someone again, asking us to abandon our weapons and surrender immediately!"

"Your mother! Ming Jun's head is broken? Fan Shaozu scolded and looked at the smoke on the mountain in the distance, and couldn't help swallowing and foaming, "Have you found out how many of them are?" ”

The soldier hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "Back to the general, the horse scouting report said that there was no detailed investigation, but it was always around three or five thousand people." ”

Since Fan Shaozu surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in Wenzhou, he has never had the opportunity to obtain military merits. Therefore, due to the lack of food in the Qing army this time, General Boluo designed Azig to take the Eight Banners and the elite of the Han army to attack Shanguan, and his troops were regarded as "unbearable" soldiers and stayed in Yanping to lure the enemy.

And the little grain and grass left was almost all allocated to Azig, and the soldiers on Yanping's side who lured the enemy only got three taels of brown rice every day. It's just that now is the time when the summer grain has not been harvested, and the soldiers are in chaos, and the nearby people have fled and left, so even if they go out to loot, they rarely harvest.

These days, Fan Shaozu's subordinates have to peel the bark of trees nearby and dig grass roots to satisfy their hunger, and the surrounding hills have been dug up as bare as monk's head.

Unexpectedly, yesterday, a group of Ming troops drove to his front, saying that they were here to surrender, and they also sent people to repeatedly urge him to lead the team to surrender immediately.

Fan Shaozu originally thought that there were tens of thousands of Ming army main forces, but in the end there were only 35,000 people, and his Fan Shaozu department had more than 5,000 soldiers and horses.

"Your mother, three or five thousand people dare to come and pick the tiger's whiskers......" he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes flashed, "so they should have brought rations for thousands of people." ”

He immediately shouted to the adjutant general next to him: "Quick, send someone for me to find the place where the Ming army's baggage is." ”

"Obey!"

Three hours later, the deputy general personally led people back from the investigation and said to Fan Shaozu: "General, the Ming army's baggage is closely followed by its brigade, guarded by seven or eight hundred rear troops, about twenty cars. ”

Fan Shaozu suddenly forgot about Bolo's so-called "peace talks" to the clouds, and since the grain and rice were sent to the door, how could he let it go easily.

He ordered, "Pass my general's order, tonight the whole army is full, set off on the second watch, and attack and rob the Ming army!" ”

Five miles east of the Qing military camp.

Cao Hongzu is also extremely depressed, why has everything not gone well recently? The DPRK clearly said that Jiang Zhengxi had defeated Jianyu, and the people of Boluo's department were panicked and silent. But the Qing army in front of them is in camp and in order, and the defense is orderly, where is the state of rout?

At first, he voted for Zheng Zhilong, but before he could get any benefits, he heard that Zheng Zhilong had surrendered.

He was hesitating to shave his hair, when news came that King Chen had attacked Xianxia Pass, and the grain and grass in Jianyu had been cut off, and the future was precarious.

Fortunately, at this time, Wang Yinghua came to persuade him to follow King Tang. He ordered the army to go to Tianxing Mansion, dreaming of being from Long, but he didn't want to be blocked outside the city of Tianxing Mansion, and he squatted under the city for more than half a month without entering the city.

This time, he learned that Jianyu was in a big rout, and Jiang Zhengxi was leading a team to collect the blades of the Qing army, and his majesty was unstoppable. He thought that he had nothing to do in Tianxing Mansion anyway, so he led his army west to Yanping, planning to get some loot, and maybe get some military exploits by the way.

As a result, when he arrived in Yanping, he didn't even see Jiang Zhengxi's shadow, and the tens of thousands of troops were camped for four or five miles, and the camp was high, so he didn't take him seriously at all.

"This situation is completely different from what the DPRK said......

Cao Hongzu was looking up at the starry sky and looked sad, when he heard a burst of people shouting horses and neighing in the rear army, and then a personal soldier hurriedly came to report, "General, build a captives to attack the camp!" ”
