Chapter 58 This is an unprecedented victory!
The one who was running towards Beixi Bridge at a rapid march along the official road on the north bank of Rongjiang North Stream was the Zuowu Guard Camp and Yongwei Camp led by Liu Guoxuan, with a total of 1,560 people.
This army landed on the wharf of Beizhai (located on the north bank of Rongjiang River) last night under the control of the boss Hui. After landing, they advanced along the north bank of Rongjiang River and the north bank of Rongjiang River North Stream, and broke through the green camps along the way. They were invincible all the way and headed straight to Jieyang Beixi Bridge.
Because this morning, the 300 cavalry led by Zhu Hesheng had already successfully attacked Beixi Bridge, blocking the connection between Jieyang County and the north bank of Beixi River. Therefore, the horses sent by the attacked Green Camp Xuntang were unable to enter Jieyang County, and Liu Jinzhong naturally had no way to know.
However, even if Liu Jinzhong knew that Liu Guoxuan was leading more than a thousand Yanping Prince's House vassal troops, he had no choice but to do anything.
Because he can't even deal with the "horse infantry" of the three hundred Zhu Sansun who occupied the Beixi Floating Bridge in Jieyang. What can he do if he can still use more than a thousand people?
Moreover, the boss Hui Qiu Hui also brought the main force of Chaozhou pirates along the "Rongjiang-Bei Stream" waterway, all the way west.
If the Beixi Bridge, which guards the Beixi Water Road, was taken away by the rebels, then the three or four thousand people under Liu Jinzhong's command would not be able to stop the more than 10,000 troops traveling alongside water and land.
He could only retreat to Jieyang County and stay in a position to support... or simply Tao Zhiyaoyao!
Among them, sticking to waiting for help was the confession of the imperial envoy Mi Sihan. Although Mi Sihan sent four red cannons to Liu Jinzhong, he still did not expect Liu Jinzhong to rely on just four cannons to repel the invading Qiu Hui.
So according to the arrangement of this imperial envoy, Liu Jinzhong only needs to defend Jieyang County when Qiu Hui's army invaded and wait for the army led by Yan Ziming, Deng Guangming, Zhang Haiyang and others to rush to rescue... In Mi Sihan's view, Qiu Hui is just a pirate. Although he has a few tricks on the water, where are the opponents of Yan Ziming, Deng Guangming, Liu Jinzhong, and Zhang Mengji when he gets ashore?
As long as Yan, Deng, Liu, Zhang and other troops gather together and gather more than 10,000 flag soldiers, green camps, and militias, it is enough to repel Qiu Hui. Even if it cannot be destroyed, as long as there are a thousand beheadings and then kill the third prince of Zhu in Guiyu Capital, Mi Sihan will be considered to have successfully completed the task assigned by Emperor Kangxi.
This great imperial envoy even had the idea of raising Zhu Hesheng, the third grandson... Only with the little bandit Zhu Sansun, could the imperial envoy Mi just transfer troops to Chaozhou with justification and control all the five subordinates of Xushun Gong Mansion.
As long as he could place an elite soldier in Chaozhou, Shang and Geng Fan would not dare to resist the imperial court's destruction.
This is really a bird with one stone!
But now, Liu Jinzhong, the most capable of fighting among the four generals of Yan, Deng, Liu and Zhang, was actually defeated by only 300 Chaozhou rebels!
Liu Jinzhong's troops were not only defeated when they were raided by these two or three hundred cavalry, but even in the dignified formation, they were at a disadvantage with more than two thousand people against more than three hundred people.
The main reason why Liu Jinzhong's troops were beaten so painful was actually that the opponent's combination of "Sky Thunder" plus "Shooting Cannon" and "Pankle Cavalry" was so powerful!
So Liu Jinzhong already knew at this time that Mi Sihan's plan would definitely not be successful... If he retreated into Jieyang County stupidly, he would be waiting to die.
"Godfather," Liu Jinzhong's godson Liu Erhu knew it would not work, "This Guangdong sky is probably going to change!"
Liu Jinzhong looked back at Liu Erhu and said nothing.
Liu Erhu whispered: "Godfather, our more than 2,000 people can't beat them 300. What if the five or six thousand people of Yan Junmen and Vice President Deng arrived? And godfather, can you expect Yan Junmen and Vice President Deng to fight for us?
If we are trapped in Jieyang County, and Yan Junmen and Vice President Deng are reluctant to save him or leave when they show off... What should we do?"
What to do? Let’s have a cold!
Liu Jinzhong knew that once he was trapped in Jieyang County, it would have to be completely cold! Not only did he feel cold, but even the families in Chaozhou Prefecture City had to be cold... Because he, the general of Chao Town, and Shang Shuying and Deng Guangming of Xushun Gong Mansion had a bad relationship and had a deep resentment. Once the army was not protected, the family's industries in Chaozhou Town would almost certainly be eaten up by Xushun Gong Mansion!
Liu Jinzhong was silent for a while and asked in a low voice: "How do you explain to the imperial envoy?"
"Just say that Oboi's remnants, even Oboi himself, surrendered to Prince Zhu San!" Liu Erhu said, "So we could not resist, so we had to lead our troops to retreat to Chaozhou Prefecture City to protect the Prefecture City."
Liu Jinzhong was still a little hesitant. Although everyone on the battlefield knew that "Obai had rebelled", could he really do this?
"Entertainment Father," said Liu Erhu, "As long as Jieyang is still in the hands of Prince Zhu San, we can eat and drink delicious food in Chaozhou Prefecture...at least we don't have to worry about life now!"
That's right, there's no worries now, let's talk about it in the future.
But if Liu Jinzhong is trapped in Jieyang and then becomes a loyal and wise man, then there will be nothing at the moment!
Thinking of this, Liu Jinzhong finally made up his mind and turned around and said to Liu Erhu: "Erhu, you can take a few of us to the city and take our brothers who are left in the city and Fengming Mountain together."
"Yeah!" Liu Erhu responded.
Liu Jinzhong no longer hesitated and ignored the Dongguan artillery soldiers who were desperate. He just strode out of the artillery tower on his own, then turned over and led his personal soldiers away.
......
"Thousand Victories! Thousand Victories..."
The sound of cheering sounded loudly on the Northern Stream Floating Bridge.
This is more than 200 people cheering for victory... Cheering for a major victory that will surely be recorded in history!
The more than 2,000 Green Camp soldiers in Chaozhen who had been confronting them for more than an hour finally chose to retreat when the water and land reinforcements led by Qiu Hui and Liu Guoxuan approached Beixi Bridge... instead of retreating into Jieyang County, they left the city directly.
In other words, in this battle called "Beixi Bridge Victory" by later generations, Zhu San's Grandson Zhu Hesheng only raided and captured Beixi Beizhai, Beixi Beiyaobaolou, Beixi floating bridge with only 2000 horse-riding infantrymen. He also defeated the Qing army Chaozhen Green Camp soldiers and Chaozhou Prefecture militia with more than 2,000 people at the southern entrance of Beixi floating bridge... and forced the Qing army Chaozhen soldiers to give up Jieyang County!
This is indeed a great victory that the Ming side has never achieved since the Ming and Qing dynasties!
In addition, during this battle that lasted only a few hours, the 200 people commanded by Zhu Hesheng achieved the results of killing hundreds of prisoners of the Qing army at a slight cost of less than 20 casualties, and at least 150 people disappeared after falling into the water... The exchange ratio is huge, which is comparable to the situation when the Ming army's "beggar soldiers" met the "Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers" back then!
Zhu Hesheng was also very happy at this time. He had already found the feeling of the male protagonist of the time travel novel... This is what it feels like!
Three hundred people who opened the "sweet gunpowder golden finger" defeated several thousand Qing soldiers. Is this probably the one who is responsible for the destiny?
It seems that anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty is really my destiny! Zhu Hesheng thought to himself: "If this anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty is really successful in the future, can I become... a feudal autocratic emperor?"
Thinking of this, Zhu Hesheng could no longer suppress his excitement, and his blood was boiling!
He quickly turned over the long-legged horse beside him, then pulled out a "Kanto Sweeper Knife" with an inconspicuous blade, and roared angrily: "Brothers, follow me... and rush to your mother!"
"Run!"
"Punish your mother..."
Chapter completed!
