I'm sure of the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong!

Chapter 29: Southern Conquest of Du Junying

The first year of Yonghe in the Ming Dynasty (the 60th year of Kangxi), July [-]th.

Taiwan Mansion.

"In the past, Hu and Yuan were cunning, and they stole the name of China. Their bad virtues were spread all over the world. My great ancestor, Emperor Gao, raised his sword, and all the people followed him to restore the district. The sun and the moon shined brightly, and it was passed down for thousands of years... …”

Ming Dynasty currently has four towns with a total of [-] troops, all of which are neatly arrayed under the city.

On the top of the city, Wang Li, the prefect of Taiwan, was personally reading out the anti-Qing proclamation of King Zhongxing of the Ming Dynasty.

Originally, I was going to read it to Liang Wenxuan, because this guy was a magistrate of the government and didn't have much to do.But after Wang Li found out, he stayed up late and worked overtime to finish the government affairs at hand.

Hurrying slowly, I finally got the opportunity to read out the proclamation before King Zhu went out for the expedition.

In the Quartet Army formation below the city, Luo Xiaolin, who had been promoted to platoon leader due to his merit in the previous battle, stood upright.

A few months ago, King Zhu led them to fight against the Fujian Navy of the Qing Army. It was said that they were very powerful.

As a result, after just one confrontation, the other party was beaten to the ground by them.

In that battle, Luo Xiaolin single-handedly killed a Qing soldier commander who was stubbornly resisting, and was promoted to a platoon leader because of this.

In the next month, they ate meat and trained almost every day, and became brothers with the Qing army who came to fight them.

yes!Paoze, this is the word that King Zhu taught them.

Whatever it is, everyone is a good brother who fights against the Qing Dynasty. Even Paoze, the past grievances should be wiped out.

Luo Xiaolin didn't understand, but as long as it was King Zhu who said it, he thought that was all.

It was just that he didn't get a good fight last time and didn't achieve much, which made him panic.

Now, after waiting for a month, there is finally another battle to fight.

On the top of the city, Luo Xiaolin didn't understand a word of what the bird magistrate said.

But no matter whether they understand it or not, this time King Zhu said that he would take them to fight General Du in the south.

To be honest, Luo Xiaolin didn't understand why King Zhu and General Du suddenly fell out against each other even though they were fine before.
But King Zhu said again that the other party wanted to rebel and come to kill them.

Since it was King Zhu who said it, it must be right.

As long as he was King Zhu's enemy, Luo Xiaolin would be the first to take him down.

The content of the memorandum is very long, and it was basically polished by Liang Wenxuan and several young men from wealthy families who had recently joined the government as officials.

The overall level cannot be said to be very high, but it is not low either.As expected of someone who was able to reach Taoist level before, his writing skills are at least acceptable.

Wang Li really spent a lot of time before he finished reading this message in a solemn tone.

When the recitation was over, the whole place was silent. All the soldiers under the city had solemn expressions on their faces. Even King Zhu had a serious look on his face.

All right!No one understands it.

But Wang Li doesn’t know that!I thought it was my tone that had infected everyone.

Fortunately, even though King Zhu couldn't understand it, his ability to remain calm when learning Chinese in his previous life allowed him to react in time.

There was no impassioned pre-war speech. Zhu Yijiong just pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted: "The Ming Dynasty will be victorious, the Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"

"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious! Long live the king!"

"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious! Long live the king!"

……

The soldiers under the city, led by the generals, shouted in unison.

After shouting three times in a row, Zhu Yijiong raised his sword.

"set off!"

With an order, [-] troops and three square formations, under the leadership of their respective generals, officially set off towards the south.

There is still one phalanx left, which is the first town of the New Army.

After Zhu Yijiong descended the city wall, he followed closely under the leadership of King Zhu Da.

Further behind are the baggage troops escorting grain, grass, artillery and ammunition.Originally, Zhu Yijiong did not want to bring an artillery piece. This thing was made of solid bullets, and the new sugar gunpowder essentially did not increase its power much.

In other words, it shoots farther and has a stronger impact.

In this era, there were no explosive bombs that could explode, or at least there were.But it was from the Ming Dynasty and had long since been banned by the Qing government and lost.

It was not until the late Qing Dynasty that flower bombs reappeared, and they still had to be imported. The Qing court did not have the production capacity.

However, it would not work without artillery. If Du Junying were to occupy the city and defend it, wouldn't he have to risk his life to attack the city?

For Zhu Yijiong, who currently has few troops, wouldn't that cost him his life?
A mighty [-]-strong army marched southward.

……

Amon City.

"Dad, does that person named Zhu really want to quarrel with us?"

Du Huisan looked at Du Junying who was standing up, with a mixture of fear and fear on his face.

Just a few days ago, they received an imperial edict from Taiwan Mansion.

Then Zhu Yijiong actually issued an order, saying that the two of them, father and son, had made great achievements in attacking Ahou and pacifying Li Ni.The father and son were asked to hand over their military power immediately and return to Fucheng to receive their rewards.

They also specially appointed Huang Long and Chen Bi under their command to temporarily take over the military power of the army.

This makes it clear that we want to pick off their fangs and let them return to Fucheng to feed them!

"how?"

Du Junying's eyes were deep and he said in a leisurely tone, "Do you really think that he wants to invite us back and give us official titles to make us equal to King Zhu?
This time, Du Huisan not only didn't get angry, but clamored to fight back.

On the contrary, his face was full of panic: "Dad, what should we do? Are... are we really going to fight that person named Zhu?"

Before going south, Du Huisan might have dared to fight Zhu Yijiong.

After all, the previous Zhu Yijiong was a Yahu who had been defeated repeatedly and relied on the help of his old cousin from southern Fujian to become the king.

At most, he only knows some tactics, which is nothing to him.

However, in the first battle south, he was defeated by Li Zhisan, losing the morale of both father and son.Then they hit the wall one after another at the foot of Ahou City.

Finally, relying on the large number of people, they forced the Qing troops to surrender, and even the soldiers from southern Fujian to serve as cannon fodder and attack the city with ants.

Regardless of the casualties, they finally captured Ah Hou, even defeated Li Zhisan, and put down the rebellion in Xia Tamsui.

But at this moment, news suddenly came from the north.

It is said that the man surnamed Zhu defeated [-] invading Qing troops in one battle with only [-] soldiers and horses.

He was also the most elite Fujian navy in the Qing army. This man named Zhu even killed a commander-in-chief and an admiral of the Qing army.

Du Huisan didn't know what an admiral was.Du Huisan only knew that the admiral was the son of Shi Lang, Marquis of Jinghai.

Who is Marquis Jinghai? Who knows about him in the whole Taiwan?
That was the landowner in Tainan, the big tiger who wiped out the Zheng family decades ago.

In the ancient concept of a tiger father with no dog sons, the son of such a powerful general was defeated by Zhu Yijiong.

No matter what other people think, Du Huisan heard about it anyway, let alone beating him. He shuddered when he thought about his attitude towards Zhu Yijiong.

"What if I don't fight?"

Du Junying glanced at her unfulfilled son and sighed silently, "Unless my father dies immediately, Zhu Yijiong will not let you and my son go..."

"..."

Du Junying stood up and walked down slowly: "Huisan! Send the order and ask all the troops to prepare troops and horses, and prepare all the food and grass. My father is going to fight in person. Since Zhu Yijiong wants to end things with us, then my father... I will accompany him Make a break."

"What are you still doing? Don't hurry up."

Du Huisan then calmed down and accepted the order: "My child takes orders."

　Ready to unify the bends
