Chapter 1168: The Dock
I have to say that almost the entire Tian'men Mountain knows that the Ningxiang Army will come sooner or later, and it is very likely that it will come from Shangshui. [Marshmallow updates quickly, the website page is refreshing, there are few ads, no pop-ups, I like this kind of website the most, be sure to praise]. (Read the latest chapter for the first time)
The defeat of everyone in the first battle of Dashengguan was too miserable, and the army of 50,000 has returned to the Tian'men mountain camp less than 10,000 now. Even if they were lucky enough to retreat from the battlefield, and did not become a corpse on the side of the road like others or scattered all over the south of the Yangtze River in a panic, waiting to be surrounded and suppressed by the Ming army, the morale of the troops was still significantly low.
For Zheng Sen's town navy, everyone doesn't think it's a big deal, if it weren't for the Ningxiang army suddenly killed from behind the butt that day, maybe we would have been sitting in Nanjing City and enjoying happiness.
The Ningxiang army is really terrifying, especially the kind of spear musket monster formation, no matter what kind of hero you are, once you rush up, the whole person seems to be stunned, and you can't do anything, you can only watch the enemy's spear pierce into your body.
In this way, as soon as the Qing army, which was already extremely exhausted, encountered the enemy's phalanx, it was as if it was facing a huge stone grinder, and it had no power to resist, and it collapsed in an instant.
I really don't want to do it again, but if you don't want to, it doesn't mean that the enemy won't come.
The Ningxiang army is an old fox who has fought and fought 'fine', will they let go of this good opportunity to take advantage of your illness to kill you?
The answer is clearly no.
Therefore, Azig ordered Shang Kexi to personally guard the wharf at the foot of the mountain to prevent a sneak attack by the Ningxiang army.
Standing by the river, one after another long winds hit, and it was a little cold on a hot day.
Shang Kexi couldn't help but tighten his body and set his eyes on the Yangtze River in the east.
The rolling Yangtze River from west to east, to here, by the Tian'men Mountain and Gaoliang Mountain, to the right, the river suddenly narrowed by two points, the river also became turbulent. As soon as the night came, the sound of the 'wave' suddenly became much higher, like a roaring beast, and I couldn't hear it in my heart.
It was still pitch black ahead, but the stars above the head were brilliant, and the faint light was projected down, but it was instantly swallowed up by the rolling river
。
"Will the Ningxiang Army come, when will it come?" Although Shang Kexi said that he moved Azig to take the army and rest on the Tian'men Mountain for two or three days, until the morale of the troops was restored, and some remnants of the army were gathered again, and then set off against the river to Anqing. As long as you enter Anqing City, relying on the strong manpower and material resources of Anqing Mansion and the high city wall, even if the Ming army comes, there is no need to be afraid.
But he was still a little timid in his heart, and he just wanted to flee west with his troops immediately. [To see the latest chapter of this book, please go to Marshmallow]
Yes, it is too dangerous to stay here any longer, the enemy may appear at any time, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to break through the encirclement and surround the army on Tian'men Mountain.
God bless, I hope that the Ningxiang Army will not be in such a hurry to come. It only takes two days, we only need two days.
However, would Fang Wei let go of this opportunity to expand the results of the battle?
Before this, he had never heard of Fang Wei, but now, this guy can be said to have become famous all over the world in a war.
As soon as the big coat was draped over him, Shang Kexi turned his head and saw a flattering face, which was Zhu Fen, the former general of the Guanning Army.
"Lord Wang, it's windy at night, so I'm careful to catch a cold. If I suffer from the cold, I will not bear it in my heart. Our Guan Ning Army will no longer exist from now on, and there are so many people up and down, and it is all up to you to take care of it! ”
Wrapped in Dayu, his body suddenly warmed up, and when he heard Zhu Fen's words, Shang Kexi was proud.
The previous thing was done beautifully, and Wu Sangui finally died. Hehe, this kid dares to be disrespectful to me on weekdays, and he doesn't want to think about who Lao Tzu is. Lao Tzu has been in Liaodong for decades, and the people of Jianzhou know what shit they are going to pull as soon as they dig their butts. Just a few words from Lao Tzu, and the backhand can destroy your full 'door'.
……
Previously, all the Jianzhou troops on the Tian'men received Azig's order and immediately took action, arresting all the generals of the Guanning Army, more than 200 people were cut off their heads, and the entire Guanning Army's middle-level and above officers were empty, and the human blood almost dyed the entire Tian'men Mountain
。
At the beginning, the Guan Ning army still had the auspicious sign of mutiny, but as soon as the heads of Wu Sangui, Hu Guozhu, Xia Guoxiang and others were lit up, the morale of the Guan Ning army was dispersed, and they knelt on the ground one after another, leading their necks to be killed.
After killing all the generals of the Guanning army, Shang Kexi and Azig were not polite, and they added five to the two, and sent officers to divide the more than 6,000 and nearly 7,000 Guanning troops.
Shang Kexi won nearly 3,000 main soldiers, and instantly regained his strength, and his heart was extremely satisfied.
Later, I heard that Wu Sangui and more than a dozen others were killed by Azig alone. I was horrified in my heart: this Azig is so brave, it is simply the reincarnation of Ma Chao! However, it's also stupid, a dignified commander of an army, but he has to fight with others, and his brain is in water.
He smiled and said to Zhu Fen: "Take care of it, I will naturally take care of you." Shang has a principle of being a man and doing things, if anyone is loyal to me, he will never be treated badly. General Zhu, Guan Ningjun 'wanted' to betray our Qing Dynasty, and finally calmed down under the pressure of Prince Ying. However, there are still people who are 'swinging', you are the old Guan Ningjun, and most of the generals in the army are your acquaintances, and you must mediate and maintain it. If you stabilize the morale of the army, in the future, the whole division of our army will return to Wuchang, and the old man should reward you for your merits in the Ming court. ”
Shang Kexi's words are clear, from this moment on, he Zhu Fen is his deputy, the number two person in the army.
Zhu Fen was overjoyed, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and kowtowed: "Thank you for the prince's kindness, in the future, the prince only needs one word, and the last sword mountain and sea of fire will also go." ”
As he spoke, there was a hint of choking in his voice, and he didn't know whether he was moved or excited.
"Why do you need such a big gift." Shang Kexi helped him up, glanced at a few Niu Lu Zhangjing sent by Azig in the distance, and said in a low voice: "We are all from the border army, and we can be regarded as the same 'door', and we need to unite in the future." ”
At this glance, he found that there seemed to be something wrong with the distant sky.
In the distance, there was a big bend in the Yangtze River, and the river became gentle after reaching that section. The sky on a summer night is full of stars and rain, and the other side is even brighter, and the galaxy seems to be still flowing slowly, as if it has come to life.
No, not the stars, but the lights on a huge fleet.
At this moment, the headless and tailless fleet turned sharply and lay in front of Shang Kexi.
For a moment, the eyes suddenly lit up, and the whole world seemed to spin in this boundless light
。
Ningxiang Military Sailor, Fang Wei is finally here.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Gu Bu picked up Zhu Fen, Shang Kexi jumped up violently and shouted hoarsely.
He walked quickly to a 'gate' of bronze cannons, raised the cannon and lit the fuse.
"Bang!" With a bang, the swarthy projectile 'shot' out along with this violent explosion, and disappeared into the distant darkness in a blink of an eye.
The loud sound of cannons and Shang Kexi's shouts alarmed the soldiers on the docks, and there were running figures everywhere.
After receiving the information from the wharf, a terrible horn sounded on Tian'men Mountain, and one torch after another was lit up one after another, and the whole mountain was illuminated as if it were day.
At this time, it was already past the middle time, and it was when a person was tired, and the Ningxiang army chose to raid Tian'men Mountain at this time, so 'treacherous' slippery!
Soon, the enemy's fleet approached Tian'men Mountain and stopped at the center of the river.
The river in this area is narrow, there are reefs in the river, and at dawn, the sky is "cloudy" and unclear, and the military and sailors of Ningxiang are unwilling to risk the danger of hitting the reef to pull the boat to the wharf.
Shang Kexi breathed a sigh of relief, if the enemy docked at the port at this time, it would be really difficult to deal with him by surprise.
At this time, he saw the situation in front of him clearly, and he was shocked.
There were so many enemy ships that the entire Yangtze River was blocked in dense numbers, and the masts were connected like a bare deciduous forest. The warships were staggeringly large, and each of them was two or three feet high when it was 'exposed' out of the water. It's a moving building!
There were at least more than 100 warships, large and small, and if I guessed correctly, they carried at least 10,000 horses.
So many people marched in the dark, but they didn't make the slightest noise. The whistling of the sails, the whistling of the cables, and the sound of running water came out of my ears, but no one spoke. The army marched into the 'force', thunder and thunder, but there was silence, which made people's hearts chill.
Unconsciously, Shang Kexi's cold sweat gushed out like a spring, and he really couldn't understand what the enemy wanted to do next
。
I don't know how long I waited, maybe it was a moment, or maybe 10,000 years.
Suddenly, the warships on the river sounded the shout of the Ningxiang Army officer for the first time last time: "The marines board the boat and prepare to land!" ”
"Keep order, keep order!"
One voice is higher than another, and the people are frightened to hear the 'meat' jump.
The sound of "squeak" came and made people's teeth ache.
I saw that those members of the Ningxiang Army Marine Corps wore shiny iron armor, carried muskets, shields and goose swords, got on the small boat, and lowered it from the big warship.
The line of fire of the torches rose into the sky, and the dinghy slapped heavily on the water, splashing layers of "waves" and "flowers". A circle of ripples joined together, turning into a big 'wave', fiercely lapping the riverbank.
"Marines, Marines!"
"We are glorious Marines!"
……
This amazing rainbow-like momentum made Shang Kexi speechless, and he didn't know what to do.
Next to him, Zhu Fen hurriedly shouted: "Lord Wang, hurry up and think of a way, hurry up and think of a way!" ”
Shang Kexi muttered, "What else, what else can ......"
Zhu Fen shook Shang Kexi vigorously: "Lord Wang, the enemy is about to use a small boat to grab the dock, and you can't let them dock." Our Guanning army still has a lot of artillery, and now it is arranged on the dock, it is better to use the cannons to suppress the formation first, buy time, and then send someone to ask Prince Ying to bring troops to come over to counterattack the landing thief army. ”
Hearing him say this, Shang Kexi finally calmed down. Looking back, there was a row of large and small artillery pieces behind him, and the artillerymen were all standing on the gun positions with white faces, and some of them were already about to turn around and run away.
He suddenly came to his senses, yes, how did I forget that the artillery of the Guanning Army was the first in the world in terms of quality and quantity. If you want to suppress the enemy's fleet, you really have to rely on artillery.
