Lord of Ming Dynasty

Although Zheng Hongkui was dissatisfied with Shi Fu, his character was hesitant, so he was persuaded by Shi Fu. The two sides counted the troops again, but found that not only did not have much loss, but there were more soldiers and horses. Forced to come from other places.

This gathering, after a little counting, was actually as many as 8000 people, many of whom were not their troops, but those country gentry and powerful servants who had fought against them earlier.

This is because Wei Wuji suddenly thought that it would be very troublesome to distinguish them. At this time, the city of Quanzhou was in chaos, and tens of thousands of people were running on the streets. Who knew which ones were the enemy, which ones were his own, which ones were innocent friendly soldiers, or those from other forces? The men and horses had to be shot together, and those who surrendered were immediately transported to the rear of the city wall and under the city wall, and handed over to Ruan Jin's men and horses to guard.

Afterwards, we are distinguishing between the enemy and ourselves, or whether innocent people were involved.

In such a chaotic situation, there must be some local hooligans taking the opportunity to make trouble. These people must be distinguished. At that time, Quanzhou Prefecture will be controlled by the Jinhua Rebel Army. According to Zhang Qiang's consistent style, it is impossible for local hooligans and punks to exist. Under his influence, These officials under him will not show mercy to these local hooligans.

The best end for the hooligans is to be thrown into a prison camp to suffer, and again, directly thrown into a hard labor camp to work to death, and the worst is to kill them when they see them.

The orderly kept sending back messages.

The eastern part of the city was completely cleared, all the intersections were guarded, and the remaining troops continued to advance.

A large part of the western part of the city has been cleaned up, and all street intersections are guarded, but some landlords and gentry are making trouble, and some troops are responsible for surrounding their mansions and shops. They are cleaning up, and the remaining large troops continue to advance towards the center of the city.

The northern part of the city is still fighting fiercely, but the enemy is retreating to the southern part of the city. One-third of the northern part of the city has been controlled, and some officials' residences are heavily guarded.

The enemy is concentrated in the south of the city to the government office and the county office in the center.

Hearing the messenger's report, Wei Wuji deployed his manpower, sending two teams of infantry and one team of musketeers to reinforce the northern area of ​​the city, and at the same time sent a team of musketeers and two teams of archers to reinforce the troops advancing from the northern area of ​​the city to the central area.

Keeping the reserve team in battle is something Zhang Qiang has repeatedly emphasized.

In order to enable his subordinates to become talents as soon as possible, Zhang Qiang has conducted as many as ten military officer trainings for his confidantes in the past two years. They can be said to be equivalent to those in the hands of warlord leaders from all over the country in the period of the Republic of China. The establishment of the various levels of military officers' school students.

It's not that they are incompetent, or that they didn't study well, but that Zhang Qiang needs to consider the various gaps and estrangements between them and future generations. After all, there is a 300-year time gap between the Ming Dynasty and future generations. How can they accept it as soon as they come up? The fighting methods and thinking of the tropical weapons of later generations, he trained them mostly from the seventeenth-century Western fighting methods of cold weapons and platoon shooting, and then told them a little about the fighting ideas of the eighteenth century, Therefore, their level is still very backward compared with later generations.

There is no way to do this. It is simply unrealistic for a person in the era of cold weapons to accept the combat thinking of tropical weapons. We can only instill them bit by bit and make them proficient.

How to be proficient is to teach them a little forward knowledge, and then train them. After the training, let them mainly fight with cold weapons, supplemented by tropical weapons, and gradually learn the transition.

Wei Wuji can be regarded as a person who has experienced a lot of wars. He has fought many battles. It can be said that he has rich experience in cold weapon warfare. Since he followed Zhang Qiang, he has often fought with tropical weapons, so he has also heard and seen. After studying a little and adding training, it can be said that he is the best person in this group of confidants.

Wei Wuji led the Chinese army slowly approaching the center of the city.

In the southern part of the city, Shi Fu and Zheng Hongkui counterattacked wave after wave. In many cases, even the Musketeers could not resist, because Shi Fu and the others knew that if they wanted to survive, they could not spare the lives of their subordinates. Many of them were not theirs. Being driven away, the bullets and time of the musketeers were consumed by crowd tactics, so in many cases, archers and crossbowmen had to be used to make up for the lack of musket firing time.

Use infantry and pikemen at the same time to block the enemy's attack.

The other is that the place is small and there are many blind spots, and the enemy can also use these blind spots to shoot them with bows and arrows, so the fierce battle in the south of the city is in full swing, and Wei Wuji's goal has not been reached at all.

However, this also immediately reduced the pressure on the Jinhua Rebels who came from the north of the city.

Why did the enemy attack from the south of the city?

Because there is a wharf in the south of the city, and there is Zheng Hongkui's ship on the wharf, and the pirates on the wharf outside also tried to rescue Zheng Hongkui's men inside the city.

Of course, it's not that Wei Wuji didn't take these people into consideration. He released more than half of the brigade's troops in the south of the city, and even set up artillery.

Other troops pressed towards the city, mostly with cold weapons.

This is also because cold weapons can play a big role in street fighting.

There are always blind spots for musket shooting, and Wei Wuji wanted them to flee to this area, and then attack from both sides of the city from the west and east.

He had expected that they would flee in this direction.

In the era of cold weapons, when the city was broken and the enemy entered the city, the defenders in the city had only one way, and that was to escape.

By the time Wei Wuji's Chinese army entered from the west of the city and pushed all the way to the central area of ​​the city, Shi Fu and Zheng Hongkui's troops were surrounded by groups in a small area in the south of the city and in the middle of the city. Fewer than 2000 remained.

Most of the remaining 6000 people were killed, and a small part, those gentry and servants who were forced to fight back, took the opportunity to surrender.

At this moment, Wei Wuji heard the sound of the orderly's horseshoes running, which was rather hurried.

Looking back, he saw the messenger coming, covered in sweat and anxious, he frowned, "Why are you so flustered?"

The messenger said out of breath: "Report to the Admiral, Zheng Hongkui and that spy of the Qing army, they...they threatened the people there, shouting that if they don't let them go, they will kill all [-] people." Death, let the people be buried with them, the adults dare not make decisions, let the villains come and report to the admiral, and ask the admiral to make up his mind."

"Damn it," Wei Wuji threw down the whip in his hand, his stern face was covered with frost.

Chapter 254 Zheng Hongkui's Dangerous Situation and Hero's End

Wei Wuji came to the battlefield on a horse.

The battlefield has actually fallen into a stalemate. Ordinarily, Zhang Qiang, who came from later generations, has watched too many police and gangster movies, and he is very dissatisfied with the brutal gangsters' hostage-taking practices, but the hypocrisy of the police is just to highlight the heroes and praise their glory. There is a lot of conflict in the image.

They let the brutal gangsters go, but the brutal gangsters then killed the hostages, and then got away with it, leaving a lot of police corpses on the ground.

For the sacrifices of those policemen, they are not moved, they are just numbers in one place, they say a few sarcastic remarks, and then pass away, but they vigorously publicize that they have to sacrifice those policemen in vain in order to protect the people, you must know The police are also members of the common people. They should be dedicated to their duties, but they should not die in vain. They should have a better way to stop the gangsters instead of letting those gangsters go. Killing them will not relieve the hatred in my heart.

But what the Russians and Israelis do is good. They will never compromise with those brutal gangsters. In order to protect more people and save fewer police sacrifices, the special operations team has formulated good tactics and stormed. Maybe more hostages can be rescued. Although the sacrifices of some policemen are not perfect, is there anything more perfect in this world? The brutal gangsters have this opportunity to commit crimes, and there will be no other chances to commit crimes.

But Zhang Qiang still ordered that anyone who fights with the Han people, if this happens, negotiate as much as possible, and then reduce the casualties of the people. This is a major issue, not a problem.

They need more ingenuity and skill to do it perfectly.

Wei Wuji actually has no feelings for the so-called people in Quanzhou Prefecture. He is loyal to the Jinhua Rebel Army. As long as he leaves the territory of the Jinhua Rebel Army, then this is the territory of the Ming Dynasty of the Longwu Dynasty. The life and death of the people here has nothing to do with him. Humans don’t have the compassionate heart of the future generations. If you belong to this camp and not mine, then you are an enemy, or someone who has nothing to do with it, and I will keep you alive.

But he had to obey Zhang Qiang's orders, so he felt that this was simply disgusting himself, and he hated Shi Fu and Zheng Hongkui to the core.

Reluctantly came to the front line.

He picked up the binoculars and climbed up to the roof to observe the place where Zheng Hongkui and Shi Fu's troops were entrenched.

Several mansions, a piece of shops, and a few pieces of private houses.

The commander next to him said to Wei Wuji: "My lord, I estimate that there are more than 700 enemies, and about [-] soldiers who can fight, and the rest are seriously wounded and wounded."

Since the field brigade has just been established, many field brigades have not yet appointed brigade commanders, so the command system of the field brigade is still the original system. Each battalion of the field brigade is still composed of thousands of households and hundreds of households. The commander's temporary thousand household officers commanded the battle.

In the next step, Zhang Qiang plans to arrange a field brigade for each of the trained confidant generals as the brigade commander.

Xiao Fei is currently leading the 6th Field Brigade, Ruan Jin is the 1th Field Brigade, and the other [-]th, [-]st, and [-]nd Brigades are directly under the leadership of Wei Wuji, commanded by the Commander of the Guards, and commanded by the Commander of Thousand Households.

As the war progressed, many brigades participated in one or two battles and then were replaced or transferred to other places. During these days, the battles were frequent and had to be like this.

"Don't agree to them first, shoot the heavy artillery at the place where their troops gather for a while." Wei Wuji squinted his eyes and said viciously.

"My lord," the commander was a little embarrassed, after all, it was against the policy issued by Zhang Qiang.

"Execute the order." Wei Wuji said coldly.

"Yes, my lord." The commander had no choice but to carry out the order, and immediately ran down to make arrangements.

Now that the people are pushed forward by the troops of Shi Fu and Zheng Hongkui, the two dare not delay. Seeing that it is working, they immediately send people to escort the people forward. Because of Zhang Qiang's benevolent government, the soldiers of the field brigade had to They retreated steadily, not daring to shoot at the people.
