What's more, there are tens of thousands of people and families under the vassal. If those who take their families and take the land route, they will die early and die late under the pursuit of the Ming army.

Now, the waterway may still be passable, but under the bombardment of the Ming army's artillery fire, it must have suffered heavy losses.

Finally, Shang Kexi swallowed hard and made up his mind to defend Guangzhou City.

At this moment, not only can we not prepare to abandon the city, we can't even hear the news. Only in this way can we reorganize the army, regain morale, and fight to the death with the Ming army.

In fact, the waterway will soon be cut off, and the only way to escape from Guangzhou is by land.

On the Pearl River, the ships of the Qing Navy continued to catch fire on the shore and were constantly sunk.

The firepower on the shore was very fierce, with nearly a hundred ten-pound bronze cannons deployed along the river, firing at the ships on the river.

These artillery pieces and the ammunition they carried were only able to march with the army thanks to the tens of thousands of enthusiastic people who came forward to support them. No matter whether it was mud or ditches, they were insignificant in the face of the burst of power from the people.

Neither Shang Kexi nor other Qing troops understood the "popular sentiment", let alone the resigned and resigned people at the bottom, who contained huge power like a volcanic eruption in their hearts.

The resentment caused by the coastal relocation, the hatred accumulated due to the cruel rule, and the arrival of the Ming army finally came out.

Zhao Liangdong was still dumbfounded and convinced. Only then did I fully understand the truth contained in what the Lord said.

"It's too far away from home, he should go back early!" Ming Jun knew how many times he had said that, and the answer he got was the girl's stubborn persistence.

"Even if it recovers, it will be difficult to stop your small army from attacking." Wu Zisheng was very unsure, "When your Majesty left Yunnan, he sent someone to contact Siam, saying that we would also take advantage of the situation and send troops to attack Burma."

………………

"As long as we are given weapons, armor, and training, tens of thousands, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of troops can be easily obtained. With the men and horses of the four banners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, I am afraid that we will no longer be able to have enemies everywhere and sweep across the sky."

Huang Li could still hold on to the bottom line, which shocked Wu Liuqi and others.

Wu Liuqi nodded and said: "In Xinhui, we killed nearly a thousand officers in the palace to retaliate for the crime of defending the city and harming the people. Fortunately, the crime was smaller. If we can be spared, even if we surrender, we will be safe.

Stay alive."

"Wherever Fang Qiang goes, those who respond will gather." Wu Liuqi in the team also expressed emotion.

"Follow Fang Qiang to take care of the food, and you will be full." After a while, Deng Dayue suddenly smiled and gave an irresistible reason.

But that is not too slight. The most miserable and difficult group in Guangdong at that time was not the people who migrated from the coast. We had land to cultivate and could engage in fishing and salt industry, and almost lost the ability to survive.

No matter what time it is, the rich are the first to rise up in rebellion. We have little or no wealth, and are on the verge of life and death. We are more urgent for change, and therefore have no choice but to look back.

In the retreating team, Deng Dayue, wearing armor on his back but still barefoot, followed closely beside Fang Qiang, not missing a step.

Zu Zeqing said: "That depends on the retreat of your army. It will definitely be overwhelming. If Siam is to let go of that opportunity."

The number of civilians accompanying the army has reached 70,000 to 80,000, exceeding the navy, and is constantly increasing. Along the road leading to Guangzhou, civilians carry armor for the soldiers and carry carts of food.

More than ten years long.

Among the strong Qing troops in Guangdong, the eight units with the least combat effectiveness were the eight units under the jurisdiction of Guangdong Jieshi Commander-in-Chief Su Li, Raoping Commander-in-Chief Zhang Guozhu, and Chaozhou Fangqiang Commander-in-Chief Zhou Bin.

In the calm battle, Zhang Guozhu, the commander-in-chief of the Raoping King Division and a loyal lackey of the Qing court, was shot and killed. Zhou Bin, the admiral of the Chaozhou King Division, was injured and fled, with very little ship loss.

I led the men and horses back. Although they all covered their heads with cloth or wore helmets, their original identities were obvious. But the people still chose to forgive and be forgiving, and showed the same indifference.

Ming Jun scratched his head and had something to say.

Yongli walked on that road when he entered Myanmar, and Zu Zeqing also walked on that road when he led the remaining soldiers to rescue him.

Although those common people were able to fight in the battle, we used our own way and tried our best to participate in the process of overthrowing the rule of the Qing court. The huge momentum was enough to shock people.

Attacks on land are more complicated, and the impact of delayed leads is small.

"It turns out that the Qing court was so hated in the hearts of the people. It looked respectful on the surface, but there was anger burning in the heart. Once it was ignited, it exploded suddenly, forming an unimaginable power."

"Shang Kexi is finished." Deputy General Tan Jie shook his head and said with a smile: "Because of Gengyin's calamity, the palace hates me deeply and will definitely let me go."

The more than 100,000 people who were equally impatient and took action had not yet passed Tengchong City, and drove through the Iron Wall Pass in a mighty manner and retreated into Myanmar.

The local government settings that Xiaojun has experienced are very complicated. There are only a few hundred soldiers left to maintain law and order, which means that there will be no relief for the people. At most, it will take some time to get back on track.

The Qing army retreated without any auxiliary troops, but it was a weak conquest, not a weak capture. It seemed that it was just a reward, and it was a scene of wholehearted support. Have I ever seen it?

First, attack the royal city directly, which has the least amount of gold and silver. If you push back steadily, you may worry that the Burmese royal officials will flee with their money. Before a decisive defeat, plunder the city in seven directions, occupying land and seizing people.

Tiebikuan and Tongbiguan are the fortresses that control Mangha, Haibai and Mangmo. Nowadays, although Xiongguan still stands, there are no warriors guarding Xiongguan.

"As General Wu said, except for the slightly less powerful firecrackers, the Burmese army is no match for the local soldiers." Wu Zisheng rode on the horse and continued to discuss the war with Fang Qiangyan.

According to the official history of the Qing Dynasty, the massacre lasted for seventeen days, killing "more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians", and "pursued the remaining people to the seaside, and the drowned people were accounted for."

As a result of the decline of the two countries, there was actually no fighting at the border between the two countries, and instead they fell into a period of relative peace.

Although the ten-pound cannon has a long range, the caliber and power of the shells are inferior to those of the Hongyi small cannon. Ships are often hit by several shots, which is also fatal.

I must be slow to see the opportunity. I am afraid that I am not the only one whose head is hung in public under the city, right?

Wu Zisheng first said yes, and decided to follow the plan. Before breaking through the Burma Pass, he sent his cavalry to march straight in, seize Simo, seize the ships, and then go up the river, retreat by land and water, and go straight to Ava (Mandalay)."

……………

"The palace has no secret techniques for siege, and there are many weak generals under its command. It is simply not willing to recruit these vicious and evil people. It is really just talk about fighting crimes on behalf of the people."

"That's not the power of the people." Huang Li looked at the people who were either in ragged clothes or thin, but indifferent and full of joy. His eyes were not wet, their noses were not sore, and their throats were not feeling good.

Meme.

That is actually the same as our traditional concept, which is to consider the crime of hurting the people and massacring the city in order to fail or to strengthen the momentum.

"Perhaps, that would be less of a deterrent." Tan Jie scratched his head and guessed, "Whoever dared to resist Xu Long in the past should take this as a lesson."

And the morale of the army and the people was revitalized because of the presence in the palace. Wherever Fang Qiang came, people rallied to respond, and the momentum was like a rainbow, which made people feel shocked out of thin air.

The Gengyin Disaster, also known as the massacre of fourteen men, filling the eight meridians with corpses, and the massacre in Guangzhou. It was the massacre committed by Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao in Guangzhou in the seventh year of Yongli (the first year of Shunzhi and the year of Gengyin).

The cowardly Fang Qiang artillery rushed to the riverside, set up a launcher on the cover of the embankment, and bombarded the Qing army with sparse rockets, giving the Qing army Wang Division a fatal blow.

Zhao Liangdong looked at the solid figure riding behind the horse, as if he was convinced of the Qing's victory.

The Qing navy was firing back, but in terms of range, it was no match for the bronze ten-pound cannon. From time to time, ships were hit, causing countless sawdust to be thrown up.

It's more than 400 miles away, and if everything goes well, it can be reached in a month. Looting, attacking and killing along the way are necessary, and the coalition forces don't carry much food and supplies, so you won't want to think about getting food on the spot.

The small situation in the sky changes due to the palace, and since the birth of the world, regardless of whether it is a strategic direction or leveraging strength, there is a step that goes wrong, which is really shocking and admirable.

Fang Qiangyan was unconvinced, but his fear of the palace and his confidence in attacking Guangzhou were wavering.

Xiangxian Guoan, Xu Erxian, You Yunlong and others, Bad Xiang are all less powerful than themselves and are more powerful. But how they will fare on the field is hard to say.

Now, Su Li has rebelled, Fang Qiangyan has been killed in battle, Fang Qiang's troops have suffered heavy losses, the strength of the Guangdong King's Division has been greatly reduced, and Guangzhou's sea waterway has not yet been guaranteed.

The navy's rockets are divided into two types: anti-ship and land-attack. The anti-ship rockets have no arrow tip and can penetrate the deck or mast before exploding.

Of course, we are also the class that supports Xu Long the most and supports the most coldhearted and active people.

Under the overwhelming rocket bombardment, dozens of ships were on fire and crowded on the river. It was chaos, and the remaining enemy ships fled in panic.

Thousands of cavalry were deployed in Guangzhou city to prevent the enemy from escaping out of the city.

The so-called recruitment of surrender and betrayal, will there be any standard for bad elephants in the future? Who will turn a blind eye to the life and death of the common people who are as careless as grass?

The Ming army was very helpless because they knew how the girl found herself among so few soldiers and persisted all the way.

Zu Zeqing said: "There are no elephant soldiers yet, but your army does not have muskets. It is not enough to raise the guns and fight in formation. King Li Jin and King Gongchang once entered the Burmese territory twice and defeated the Burmese army. Now it is too many.

By the year, the Burmese people should have the possibility of recovery."

Those eight people were all at peace with the Zheng family, and had many battles with the Zheng family, and had accumulated considerable experience in naval battles. When Zheng Chenggong was alive, he led his troops to attack several times, but they failed to defeat us.

Before the navy blocked Guangzhou's waterways, it also slowed down its retreat and attacked Guangzhou City, and set up camp steadily, waiting for the team to arrive.

The strength of the country directly affected the situation on the border. When Xiao Ming was in Yongli, he was still unable to do what he wanted in the southwest; Myanmar also regained its glory, and the royal family had to move to Awa in lower Myanmar.
