This was sent by Zhu Li.

At this time, Zhu Mian did not openly oppose the Qing Dynasty, he was the leader of the Yunxiao Boat Gang, and these boat gangs were only pirates in the Manchu court.

In essence, he is also a pirate.

After the ban on the Manchu sea, all the smugglers who went to sea were also merchants and thieves, his base was in Budaiao, Xiaoliangshan, the former was an island near Nanao, the latter was on the coast of Zhangpu, the coastal people of Yunxiao transported goods to him in small boats, he was responsible for selling the goods to other places, especially European merchant ships, basically there were traces of them along the coast, and even the farthest to Tianjin, although the Manchu court offered a reward to catch them and even sold them fruits, but in fact it was meaningless, because the coastal sailors and they were all in the same group, everyone was a native of their hometown, Zhu Lian has their share of the income, how can those officers and soldiers of the Navy Division suppress them.

There are such pirates, not only Zhu Li's family, such as Zheng Yi in Guangdong, that is, the famous Zheng Yi's sister-in-law and her husband, who are also doing this at this time.

The Zheng family is a family in this line.

From the fall of Taiwan to the present, these former Ming Dynasty remnants have been at the mouth of the Pearl River, mixed with the Tan people as pirates, but the original history of the South China Sea Pirate Alliance has not yet been formed, this big alliance was formed fifteen years later, it is estimated that Zheng Yi's sister-in-law, who is only a girl, became the hegemon of the South China Sea at that time, and even European merchants had to submit to it, and even when they were unhappy, they blocked the Pearl River Estuary at any time to demonstrate to the Manchus, Zhang Baozai also ambitiously fooled the British to provide him with warships to overthrow the Manchus, Although he was exaggerating a little, with the war of the crows thirty years later, if this pirate alliance had the support of the British, there would be no pressure to seize Canton.

If Yang Feng wants to build his own navy, he must rely on these pirates.

Mazu ......

Well, it's actually Liu Tao, and by the way, Yang Feng and her are hand in hand, and the color palette is a little softer and a little hazy.

The picture of Mazu's manifestation quickly destroyed the psychological defense line of Zhu Li's cronies, and his pious belief in Mazu made him kneel at Yang Feng's feet without hesitation, of course, and at the same time accepted the theoretical system of the Holy Religion, and then Yang Feng directly gave him a box of gems, which was the reward given to them by Mazu, what they needed to do was to immediately use these gems to purchase arms and even warships in Macau, and it would be better if they could buy large warships from there. In short, they should be armed as quickly as possible, and before the end of the year, they will enter the Yangtze River, and so on to destroy the Qing demons and establish the Chinese Holy Dynasty, they are all founding fathers, and they will all be crowned marquis, and even Yang Feng promised to follow the example of the British and the Dutch, with them as the core to form a colonial organization similar to the East India Company, so that they can run rampant across the ocean like the British.

That's it.

That's what these people dream of.

The three ropes of gods, interests, and power are enough to pull the Zhu Yi group over, and then the next one is Zheng Yi, a disciple who is familiar with Guangdong has also gone south to Guangdong, he will go to Zheng Yi, and Yang Feng's original Lin Shuangwen identity is the bridge, after all, the core of Zheng Yi Group is the rest of Zheng Chenggong.

You can even reconnect with the Heaven and Earth Society in Guangdong through Zheng Yi.

In this way, the flames of war swept the southeast.

"All the fires of the Qing Dynasty must be burned!"

Yang Feng said proudly.

And at this time, the next battle in Xiangyang City that can be said to determine the fate of the Qing Dynasty also began.

"Steady!"

Yang Zhong, the commander of the First Brigade of the Holy Sect Army, roared.

He was born as a coolie at the dock, and his family starved to death in the famine in northern Hubei in the forty-fourth year of Qianlong, only he survived at the age of fifteen at the time, and then he has been working as a coolie at the Xiangyang Wharf for a living, and after joining the Holy Sect, he was selected by Xianzun to become the first batch of soldiers through the grievance conference, and was appointed as the battalion commander because of his outstanding performance in training and learning, and at that time there was only one battalion of the Holy Sect Army, and then Xianzun himself taught him to read and be familiar with various tactics, although most of the time was not enough for him to grow into a real commander, But it was enough for him to cope with the battle with the Eight Banners.

After all, there were no famous generals in the Eight Banners at this time.

Fukangan is already top-notch.

But Fukangan put it bluntly, that is, relying on his special status, everyone below is obedient, and then relying on the number and equipment to crush some small tribes or rebel farmers, and the other Eight Banner generals can have battlefield experience.

Including the experience of failure.

At this time, a total of 2,000 red-clothed Saint Sect soldiers in front of Yang Zhong were lined up in three columns, one end was close to the Han River, and the other end was five hundred cavalrymen, led by a girl dressed in white, with a willow leaf steel knife in one hand......

This is Wang Cong'er.

And the five hundred cavalry were all old green battalions.

Behind this horizontal formation, there were 3,000 volunteers armed with spears of nearly two zhang, ready to move forward when the front could not hold on, and in front of the horizontal formation, there were scattered rows of rejecting horses, and two miles ahead were the surging Eight Banners Iron Cavalry.

This is their decisive battle with Santua.

However, Santua was only able to dispatch 2,000 cavalry, and during this time he attacked the city many times, and each time he was beaten back, and the loss was nearly 1,000, because Jingzhou was also attacked by the Holy Cultists, and the Qing army in Nanyang was also struggling to support, and Santua was only supplemented by a few thousand regiments in Tang Deng's area. However, the 20,000 Holy Sect troops in Baokang and other places in Yunyang Fang County are attacking this side along the Han River, and Santua must divide half of his men and horses to block this Holy Sect army, and only 2,000 Jingzhou Eight Banners and more than 2,000 Suizhou and other places are used for decisive battles under Xiangyang City, and the difference between the two sides in terms of strength is not large, the advantage of the Qing army is the Eight Banners cavalry, and the advantage of the Holy Sect Army is 2,000 flintlock pipers.

Classical cavalry against modern infantry.

There are not many artillery on both sides, Yang Zhong only has eight mountain splitting cannons, and Santua only has the same ten mountain splitting cannons, his heavy artillery is in Jingzhou, and Jingzhou has been surrounded by tens of thousands of saints, in fact, Hubei at this time, except for Wuchang is quite stable, almost all others are involved in the war, those people who were inspired by the slogan of free food in Juntian, under the banner of worship of God, surrounded the city in the countryside, the Qing army and regimental training in Hubei were divided in one city after another, and basically the control was not out of the city gate, Even more than a dozen cities, including the two prefectures, have been converted to the Holy Religion.

The same is true for the Nanyang area, including Henan.

After a simple shelling, the regimental exercises attacked first!

Driven by the cavalry of the Eight Banners behind, the six battalions of regimental training in Suizhou and other places moved forward first, and those who were recruited by the local gentry at the expense of the local gentry were cursing while holding their shields and running wildly, they needed to move away for the cavalry, and even used as cannon fodder to test the firepower of the Holy Sect Army, it was obvious that most of the regimental training had already regretted it at this time, but the war horses that kept moving forward behind gave them no choice. In the farmland less than a kilometer between Da Xian Mountain and the Han River, those regimental exercises kept moving forward while shouting and cheering for themselves, the distance between the two sides was constantly narrowing, 2,000 Holy Sect soldiers were waiting with their muskets, and Wang Cong'er at the foot of Da Xian Mountain on the left controlled the war horse, looking at the Chinese army flag from time to time with a little anxiety.

Time passes in waiting.

Just when the group drills were still thirty zhang away from the formation of the Holy Sect Army......

"Steady!"

In the pounding heartbeat, Yang Zhong took a deep breath and shouted.

The team drills continue to move forward.

The distance is twenty zhang.

Those officers even looked back at Yang Zhong.

"Steady, Immortal Venerable!"

Yang Zhong gritted his teeth and shouted.

Then the group practice continued to move forward, and even the Eight Banners behind them could be seen clearly.

The distance was shortened to ten zhang.

"Fire!"

Yang Zhong suddenly roared.

The two thousand Holy Sect soldiers pulled the trigger almost at the same time, and the next moment, in the neat sound of gunfire, accompanied by the flames and smoke sprayed from the muzzles, one by one 16 mm diameter lead bullets suddenly flew out and instantly hit the charging regimental training, the distance of 30 meters was too close, so close that as long as it was not intentional, there was almost no miss, especially those regimental drills were still lined up in a dense formation, like a wheat field pushed by a strong wind, accompanied by the violent storm of bullets, the attacking regimental training collapsed backwards in unison, and more than 2,000 regimental exercises were left in the blink of an eye.

The entire battlefield was silent.

The Santuan smoking gun behind the Qing army fell to the ground.

"Reload!"

Yang Zhong roared in the rear of the Holy Sect Army.

The soldiers came to their senses and quickly reloaded their bullets, and by this time they had no fear.

"Run!"

At the same time, they didn't know who shouted in the group training opposite them, and then the remaining more than a thousand group training turned around without hesitation, and ran into the Eight Banners cavalry behind them like crazy, and the Eight Banners cavalry behind them immediately became chaotic, and some of the Eight Banners began to slash and kill the defeated group training, and the rout group training was also attacking them, at this time, the Holy Sect Army completed the loading quickly, and immediately aimed at the front and pulled the trigger, because the group training and the Eight Banners that collided with each other could not restore order for a while, and flew over the bullets thirty or forty feet away, Constantly hitting the back of the regimental training and the body of the Eight Banners Army, the chaos was completely out of control, and even some of the Eight Banners soldiers began to turn around and flee.

After all, they are not the era of wild boar skins either.

"Order the cavalry to attack!"

Yang Zhong wiped his sweat and said.

The flag bearer next to him waved the flag.

"Kill, kill the demon!"

Wang Cong'er, who had been impatient for a long time, pointed forward with the knife in his right hand and shouted.

Then she rushed out first.

Behind her, five hundred cavalry shouted and began to charge.

"Get on the bayonet!"

Behind the infantry, Yang Zhong also shouted.

All infantry were loaded with bayonets.

"Kill, kill the demon!"

Yang Zhong pulled out his saber and shouted.

The next moment, two thousand infantry and three thousand spear volunteers shouted forward, the roar of killing the Qing demon resounded through the Han River, and the momentum of the pursuit battle was staged like this, in the chaotic Qing army in front of them, listening to the sound of the horse's hooves of the cavalry behind them, those regimental exercises immediately knelt down and surrendered, and the Eight Banners, which had lost their fighting spirit, were defeated on all fronts. Wang Cong'er took the lead in the killing, dressed in white and slashing fiercely, she was as eye-catching as a banner, and the cavalry inspired by the fairy child behind was also like a bamboo, and the scattered Eight Banners cavalry was then divided by the Holy Sect infantry and spear volunteers behind, and was constantly killed by bullets and stabbed by spears, and even forced into the surging water of the Han River.

Victory is as simple as that. [.]
