Chapter 271: Admiral Shi Lang

When Wang Yu announced that he would personally take Xue Fengzuo to Dongfan, Bai Wenxuan and the soldiers under Wang Yu were stunned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Gong Xiaodao: "Dashuai, such a trivial matter, you can send someone to go, why do you have to go there yourself?" ”

Bai Wenxuan also persuaded each other: "General Wang, the battle of Yuezhou is imminent, if Yuezhou is conquered, our army's naval division can enter Dongting Lake, this is a key battle, if you control Dongting Lake, the Yangtze River route is at your fingertips!" ”

Wang Xinyu said: "The steam engine is a weapon of the country, if this thing can succeed, it is better than an army of 100,000!" In fact, Yuezhou is not in a hurry to attack, it is better to wait for the completion of the Lingqu, the large warships can enter the Xiangjiang River, and our army will seek Yuezhou again. ”

Liu Guoxuan also agreed with Wang Yu's opinion: "What the marshal said is extremely true, now on the Xiangjiang River, my sailor boat is small, and there is not even a centipede clipper, which is a great loss." There is no need to wait for the completion of the Spirit Canal, if a batch of larger warships can come in, it will be easy to take Dongting Lake in the end! But with these ships now, it is still difficult to defeat the Tartar Dongting Lake Sailors. ”

Wang Xinyu suddenly thought of a person, so he said to Liu Guoxuan: "If the master of the Tartar Water Division will be replaced by Shi Lang, General Liu will not move, and you must not act rashly!" With our current inland water division, he is not Shi Lang's opponent! However, if the Tartar is replaced by Shi Lang, this clan will find a way to make Shi Lang lose ground again from Huang Xigon! ”

Just before Wang Xinyu planned to leave Changsha, Li Shutai, who had been used by him to deter the Qing army, finally couldn't support it and died with a whimper. Hearing that Li Shutai was dead, Wang Xinyu simply waved his hand: "Cut off the head, pull the body out and bury it, after all, it is a Tartar forehead, carve a tombstone for him." ”

……

More than ten days ago, thousands of miles away, the Forbidden City Cining Palace in the capital.

"Your Majesty, Lafayette, Dongting Lake is the key to entering the Yangtze River, if the thieves defeat our army's Dongting Lake Water Division, Wuchang will be in danger! In the battle of Dongting Lake, our army must not be defeated! Tu Hai knelt on the ground and played to Kangxi and Bu Mu Butai.

"The commander of the Hunan Navy Division, Shang Shan, was newly defeated, and the morale of the Navy Division was not high. Based on Tu Aiqing's view, who is the most suitable person to replace Shang Shan as the Admiral of the Navy? Bumu Butai asked.

Tu Haidao: "Shang Shan is the commander of the Eight Banners, and the Admiral of the Navy is concurrent." As the saying goes, northerners are good at horses, and southerners are good at boats. This admiral of the navy division has to let the Han people serve as the most suitable. There is a candidate for the minion, Shi Lang, the former general soldier of Tong'an! ”

"Shi Lang?" Kangxi almost jumped up when he heard this, "He is guilty of sin, and he is idle in the capital." I didn't punish him for his crimes, which is already a blessing, and I want to promote him to a higher rank, from the chief soldier to the commander? No way! ”

"Imperial grandson, listen to Tu Aiqing!" Bumu Butai Road. Tu Hai made a mistake and was demoted by Shunzhi, and almost lost his life, it was she who saved Tu Hai, and Tu Hai was a chess piece she used to deal with the four ministers, some things, Tu Hai saw more accurately than them.

Tu Hai snorted a thousand times: "Your Majesty, Lafayette, Shi Lang's fiasco in Xiamen was not General Shi's crime, the crime was Dasu and Li Shutai!" Dasu is dead, and after Li Shutai was captured, it is said that life is better than death, and both of them deserve it! This Shi Lang is not the opponent of the pseudo-king of Yanping; Later, the Qiongzhou Haikou rose, and with the strength of the ship and the artillery, they were also invincible at sea. But when they entered the river, the thieves did not have a giant ship of Tessie, but only some small boats. If Shi Lang is dispatched, he will be able to defeat the thief sailor in one fell swoop! ”

Bumu Butai said: "It's better to summon Scholar Huang into the palace, and the mourning family will ask him what he thinks!" ”

"Slave thank Lafayette!" Tu Hai kowtowed. He knew that since Bumu Butai wanted to see Huang Xigon, it meant that he was ready to use Shi Lang, because after Shi Lang's family was killed by Zheng Chenggong, Huang Xigon married his sister to him.

After Huang Xigon entered the palace, Bumu Butai mentioned that he wanted to appoint Shi Lang as the admiral of the Hunan Navy.

"Lafayette, General Shi Lang is good at water warfare, if he serves as the admiral of the water division, he will definitely be able to break the thief in one fell swoop!" Huang Xigon hurriedly knelt down and bowed.

Bumu Butai smiled and said: "Scholar Huang, this General Shi Lang is your brother-in-law, you can't wait to say good things for him, isn't it nepotism?" ”

Huang Xigon said a thousand times: "Back to Lafayette, although General Shi Lang is Weichen's brother-in-law, he is indeed talented in water warfare, and this is not Weichen's cronyism." ”

Bumu Butai nodded and said, "Hmm! The official appointment will take a few days to come down, Huang Aiqing will go back first, and let General Shi Lang make preparations! Also, in Zheng Zhilong's old department of the sailors, he could choose talents by himself! ”

"Thank you Lafayette!" Huang Xigon stepped back.

Bumu Butai said to Kangxi again: "Emperor Sun, you quickly issue an order and let General Heilongjiang put Zheng Zhilong's people back!" They are invulnerable to this water war. ”

Kangxi said: "Huang Ma, the Heilongjiang general has played, the Rakshasa people have repeatedly harassed the border, and although Zheng Zhilong and those people are slaves in Ningguta, they are the backbone of my Heilongjiang Sailor." If you are transferred, how can you resist the Rakshasas? ”

"Leave the Rakshasa side alone!" Bumu Butai said, "The Rakshasa people will not destroy my foundation of the Qing Dynasty, and the pseudo-Ming Haikou will take away you and my ancestors and grandchildren!" ”

After Huang Xigon returned, he informed Shi Lang and Huang Ji of the good news.

Who knew that Huang Ji was worried: "Brother, this matter is not a good thing!" If you let your brother-in-law go, wouldn't it be in vain to die? If the brother-in-law loses, can the court let the brother-in-law go? ”

Huang Xigon said: "Big brother, why do you say these unlucky words? If my brother-in-law goes to Hunan, he will definitely be able to break the sea bandits, how can he be defeated? ”

"The cannon fire of the thief ship is fierce, and the gap in weapons cannot be offset by individual martial arts. The Eight Banners Iron Cavalry was defeated in a hundred battles, could it be that the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry was not brave enough? But the thief's firearms are so sharp! It's the same with this water war, I'm afraid that my brother-in-law will give his life for no reason! Huang Ji shook his head and sighed.

Shi Lang disagreed: "Uncle, eldest brother!" The younger brother is proficient in water warfare, and now is the time when the imperial court needs to employ people! Liu Guoxuan, the chief general of the thief army, is not the old king of Yanping, if the younger brother goes, Liu Guoxuan will be the defeated general under the younger brother! ”

Huang Xigon asked, "How is Liu Guoxuan?" ”

Shi Lang said: "This person is proficient in water warfare, when he is still not as good as the little brother!" It's not Shi who brags, just the younger brother comes out, and even if Liu Guoxuan has twice the strength, he is not the opponent of the younger brother! If it is on the sea, there is the red-haired giant ship of Qiongzhou Haikou Wang Yu, and the ship is strong and the guns are sharp. But in Dongting Lake, the thieves have no giant ships available, and the competition is whose water battle command is better! ”

Although Wu Sangui has not rebelled, Wu Yingxiong has been monitored by the Qing court, and even more on the toxicity of the Eight Banners special offerings, Wu Yingxiong was hated by the old Eight Banners in the capital, thinking that he deliberately introduced the Eight Banners special offerings to harm the flag people.

However, Wu Yingxiong's activities are still free, but there are secret agents from the imperial court to follow him everywhere.

Wu Yingxiong left the Efu Mansion and came to the place where he often listened to books, but the shopkeeper told him that the storyteller Yang Qilong had left the capital and was said to have gone to Jiangning. It seems that Geng Jingzhong especially likes to listen to Yang Qilong's storytelling, and after he went to Jiangning, he sent someone to send a letter and invited Yang Qilong to Jiangning.

Old friend Geng Jingzhong left the capital, storyteller Yang Qilong also left, Wu Yingxiong looked at the empty teahouse, and his heart was filled with a little sadness: God! What mistake did I, Wu Yingxiong, make in my last life, and how did I end up like this?

Wu Yingxiong didn't know that Yang Qilong had actually secretly joined the Heaven and Earth Society and became an agent of the Heaven and Earth Society. In real history, the case of Yang Qilong, who will pretend to be the third prince of Zhu, will not happen, but instead Yang Qilong will turn the Qing army upside down in Jiangning City, and finally cooperate with Geng Jingzhong to open the city gate and put the Ming army into the city.

……

In Ningguta, Heilongjiang, a fast horse with an urgent speed of six hundred miles galloped over: "The holy decree has arrived!" ”

Sabusu, Lang Tan, Peng Chun, Tong Bao and others knelt on the ground one after another.

About an hour later, Sabu Su walked in front of Lin Xingzhu, the former general of the Zheng family's army, with the holy decree: "Lin Xingzhu, take the order!" ”

Lin Xingzhu originally followed Zheng Zhilong. After Zheng Zhilong descended to the Qing Dynasty, he followed Zheng Chenggong. Later, after being defeated and captured, Lin Xingzhu surrendered to the Qing court and was sent to Ningguta as a slave. Because Zheng Zhilong, Lin Xingzhu and others were proficient in shipbuilding and familiar with water warfare, they were given preferential treatment by Sabusu.

Nearly ten years of life in Ningguta had exhausted Lin Xingzhu's will to resist, and at this time he had long regarded himself as a slave of Sabusu.

"Minion Xie Huangen!" Hearing that he was going to let himself enter the customs with a water master, Lin Xingzhu knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. Although he is a general of the Han people, he is a slave in Ningguta, and if he has been a slave for a long time and no longer fights, he is a slave.

Because the Qing army needed to form a Heilongjiang Navy Division to deal with the increasing number of Rakshasas, Lin Xingzhu and others were deeply appreciated by Sabusu, and in Sabusu's mind, Lin Xingzhu and a group of other people had long been their slaves. Otherwise, in the Qing Dynasty, a slave could not call himself casually!

Just when Sabusu was about to arrange for Lin Xingzhu and a group of Zheng Zhilong's old troops to enter the customs, someone came to report: "Report to the general!" Big things are wrong! The Rakshasas have entered the Zarat Division! Quite a few warriors who went out to graze their horses were killed! ”

"Are you sure it was the Rakshasa who did it?" Sabusu asked.

"It's a rakshasa!" The person who came to report the news made a thousand calls, "The wounds on their bodies, mainly those wounded by firearms, are the kind of Rakshasa fire guns that have a long range, and even the horses have been killed!" There are also people who have been wounded by crossbow arrows, which we also do not have, crossbow arrows from the West. ”

"Where are the Rakshasas now?" Sabusu asked. What he was most worried about was that if the Rakshasas were allowed to enter the Korqin tribe and kill people, he was afraid that Bumu Butai would be furious.

"The whereabouts of the Rakshasas cannot be found, their Tessima, our people have discovered them from afar, and they can't catch up at all." People who came reported it.

"It's about to snow, and when it does, the Rakshasas will definitely go back to their castle." Peng Chundao on the side.

"I hope so! But these Rakshasas grew up in the snow and ice, and they are harder than us! "Sabu always had some bad premonitions about the appearance of the Rakshasas. (To be continued.) )
