When I first arrived, it was already the scorching sun, and the north bank of Qiantang was full of cicadas and frogs.

"Raise the flag higher!" Deng Shan shouted to the flag officer, "Straighten your waist!" Eh, that's right. ”

He pointed to the two officers who had just landed on land in a small boat, "Li Shi and Qian Lao Wu, take your people to the north to be on guard, be smart!" ”

"Yes!"

The two officers saluted, and one of them wondered: "General, why do we have such a big fanfare when our beachhead is not yet established?" This thief is on the Dapan Mountain two miles away, in case they find it......"

"Yes, just for them to see. This is called knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger. Deng Shan slapped him, "Go and set up the whistle." ”

"Yes!"

In fact, as early as the warship of the Qiantang Naval Division of the Ming Army released the first landing boat, the captives on the watchtower of Dapanshan had already seen it from afar, and then immediately issued a warning.

It's just that the main forces of the Qing army sent by Hong Chengchou, such as Huang Ding and Yang Chengzu, have not yet arrived in Xincheng, and there are only more than 200 defenders here for the time being.

The Jianyu officer who was in charge of guarding Dapanshan also had a headache when he heard the news, and his duty was to prevent the Ming army from landing, but the ghost knew how many men and horses the other party came.

He hesitated again and again, and finally took one hundred and seventy or eighty people to carefully descend the mountain and touch the north bank of Qiantang.

"My lord, it seems that there are only about a hundred or so people." Less than a mile from the shore, a Qing soldier climbed a tree and looked south, "not even setting up the horses." ”

"Oh?" The officer was overjoyed, and said in his heart that if he could take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Ming army and drive it into Qiantang in one go, it would be a great achievement!

Thinking of this, he immediately drew his sword, ordered his men to form a group, and then took the lead and rushed out.

After running out of a hundred and ten steps, he saw that there were only dozens of Ming troops on the shore, and he was even more excited, "Kill this Ming army, Lao Tzu will treat you at night!" ”

Before the captive officer could speak, he found that the Ming troops on the shore had gathered towards the river, and they had opened a large area of earthy yellow curtains, revealing the muzzles of the black holes in them.

He was shocked, and hurriedly waved and shouted, "Withdraw!" ”

On the other side, Sun Qi's hand holding the knife fell down and shouted, "Let's go!" ”

Suddenly, more than a dozen four-pounder and six-pounder guns roared in unison, and the shells roared and rushed towards the Qing army in Dapanshan, which rushed halfway.

At the same time, there were a few small black dots on the water in the distance. The small black dots grew bigger and bigger, and it was clear that they were a huge warship.

Luo Ming was standing on the bow of the Yanping, which he had chosen as the ship, and saw the Qing army fleeing from the desert through the binoculars, and muttered: "His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King is also too careful, and it is a waste of cannonballs to deal with these thieves and ask the help of the sailors." ”

He didn't know that Su Chengyu was just trying to make the momentum bigger in order to better attract the attention of the Qing army.

After all, Luo Mingshou still signaled to the deputy general beside him, "Just fire a few cannons at those captives on the shore." ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, with the Yanping as the core, more than a dozen large and small warships also began to spew out anger.

The Yanping was carrying an eighteen-pounder gun, and although it was only fired forty paces away from the captives, the crumbling stones still pierced the heads of the two captives.

The Qing soldiers were almost suspicious of their lives—for a while, they could average a cannonball on the heads of almost every two people! Who is this messing with?

A total of nearly 30 cannons of the infantry army and water division were aimed at more than 100 people, and the results can be imagined. Only four captives were lucky enough to run back to Dapan Mountain, and the rest were smashed into mud by shells.

When the Qing troops who stayed behind in Dapanshan heard the news, they hurriedly went to Xincheng to warn them.

"What?! Thousands of Ming troops, no less than 30 cannons?! Hu Feng, the garrison of Xincheng, grabbed the soldier who reported the news, "Can you see clearly?" ”

"Back to my lordship, Wang Fourteen, they can see it clearly," the soldier said with a sad face, "the cannonballs fell like hailstones, and our Zhao generals lost their lives on the shore." Although the Ming army brigade has not been seen, there are so many cannons, and there are at least thousands of people hiding nearby. ”

The new city department on the side arched his hand and said: "My lord, take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold and rush to kill him!" ”

"!" Hu Feng slapped him on the head, "Just the more than 1,000 soldiers in the city, it's not enough for people to have 30 cannons to stuff their teeth!"

"Quickly send someone to the direction of Yu Qian and ask for help from Mr. Huang! With his 20,000 Ma Ming army, it will be no problem. ”

On the same day, the Huang Ding Division of the Jianyu West Route Army received an urgent report from Xincheng, indicating that the army had landed near Dapanshan and was about to besiege Xincheng.

Huang Ding was surprised when he heard the news, according to his preconceived idea, the Ming army only had 30,000 or 40,000 horses, and in the face of the pressure of more than 100,000 soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, he should be so frightened that he shrank on the south bank and desperately deployed his defenses. Why did they dare to attack the North Shore?

He thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out, and thought that he was going to the direction of Tonglu in the upper reaches of Qiantang, so he asked Yang Chengzu, who was in charge of guarding Fuyang, to notify him and ask him to send someone to help Dapan Mountain.

Unexpectedly, a few hours later, Yang Chengzu sent his henchmen to come, saying that Fuyang also found that the Ming army had landed, and his duty was to rush to Fuyang to retreat from the enemy first, and he had to ask Huang Zongbing to take care of the Ming army in Dapanshan.

Huang Ding didn't think it was wrong, there were no more than 1,000 southern troops, and he could clean it up along the way. So he ordered his men and horses to go to Xincheng first to meet them, and then turn to Dapanshan to clear out the landing enemy.

And when his 20,000 soldiers and horses rushed to Dapan Mountain, he didn't even see a single figure.

"Could it be that the Ming army found out that my army had been killed, so they fled back to the south bank?"

Huang Dingzheng was puzzled, so he heard the guards come to report, "General, the defenders of Jinji Mountain ask for help." ”

Then the two grizzled riders ran to the front, and when they saw Huang Ding, they immediately said with tears in their eyes that Jinji Mountain was attacked by thousands of Ming troops.

Huang Ding couldn't help frowning, and said in his heart that this southern army had some guts, and instead of retreating to Xiaoshan, they continued to attack and harass to the west.

He also urgently ordered his troops to continue to chase westward, and when he came to Jinji Mountain after half a day, he heard that the Ming army had already left after bombarding the camp.

That night, the Qing army of Changshan further west came to Huang Ding for help, and the Yan Ming army attacked Changshan again.

Huang Ding was angry in his heart, these Ming army rats only knew how to run around, but they didn't dare to confront me head-on! He then recruited his cavalry commander Gou Fang, and ordered him to lead his two thousand light cavalry to pursue the enemy westward in the starry night, even if he could not be annihilated, he would entangle this Ming army.

"I don't believe you can outrun a horse's hooves!" Huang Ding watched Gou Fang's men and horses leave, and returned to the military tent to sleep with satisfaction, as if he had heard Gou Fang's words of success to him tomorrow.

But this time he guessed wrong. The 2,000 cavalry he sent chased until noon the next day, and he didn't even see the shadow of the Ming army, but sent back the news that Fengchuan City was attacked by the Ming army.

Huang Ding was furious, and even all the cavalry, including his own guards, were sent out to search for this Ming army everywhere in the north and west, and he himself led the main force to follow all the way to the west.
