"Retreat? Haha... Can we retreat now? Can these nearly a thousand soldiers escape under the pursuit of the cavalry of the Jieyi Army?" Liu Qinghan said to the deputy general next to him with a sad face, "You lead the people to retreat, I have no power now."
We have found a way to evacuate. Please use.. to visit this site. This battle was a huge defeat and nearly three thousand soldiers were lost. One person needs to bear the responsibility. Since I, the general, cannot take them back, I will fight with them to the death here. Report back the military information.
At that time, just pass the responsibility to me."
"General, but..."
"Why don't you leave? Do you want to stay and die with me? One death is enough, get out!" Liu Qinghan roared angrily.
"Brothers, we have no retreat now. If you are still a soldier of the Qi Army, pick up your weapons and fight to the death with my general against the Jieyi Army cavalry! Even if you die, you must die like a man!" Look!
Watching the departing lieutenant, Liu Qinghan turned around and roared with his sword.
As Liu Qinghan roared angrily, some Qi navy soldiers immediately gathered around him, still blocking the Jieyi cavalry. They knew they were losing, but they still waved their swords to fight.
"Fight to the death? Haha... That's the case, then let you die here. You want to raid our rebel city and die here, this is the fate you deserve!" Li Qingping responded sharply.
"Kill..." Li Qingping personally led the cavalry and rushed to the location of the Qi army general Liu Qinghan. This was the only Qi army group resisting.
"Pu Chi..." The long swords were waved, and the cold light flashed. Under the leadership of Li Qingping, the Jieyi Army cavalry instantly rushed through the Qi Army formation where Liu Qinghan was. The Jieyi Army Cavalry did not stop. Dozens of Qi soldiers and Qi Army General Liu Qinghan, at this moment
They had become corpses on the ground. There were also more than ten cavalrymen left behind by the rebel cavalry. However, that was all.
"Kill! Capture all these defeated soldiers!" At this moment, the closed gate of Quantang City was also opened. Hundreds of young men and common people rushed out and rushed towards the retreating Qi soldiers.
.
The defeat could only be described as overwhelming. The envoys of the Qi army on the warship witnessed this situation with their own eyes. After one of the five assault boats transported Liu Qinghan's deputy general back, the remaining four
Because of the robbery by the soldiers, they were unable to leave after getting into a melee, and even capsized two ships.
On the river beach, three hundred rebel cavalry plowed into the fleeing soldiers of the Qi army like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep. The sharp horizontal knives cut through the bodies of the Qi soldiers like cutting wheat.
It is a pity that a naval general like Liu Qinghan, who was in charge of thousands of navy, died in a battle here. If it was a naval battle, even with the same force, he might not be able to stay, but here, due to various reasons, he finally died together with ordinary soldiers
, died at the hands of the rebels.
The cavalry of the Jieyi Army was chasing after them. Naturally, the Qi army would not stay where they were and wait for the cavalry of the Jieyi Army to charge. However, when the Qi army retreated by the river, they discovered that they had no way to retreat. Of the five assault boats, all except one successfully captured them.
With the exception of Vice Admiral Liu Qinghan and several officers who came ashore, the other four ships failed to leave smoothly.
It's not that these assault boats cannot be used, but that these soldiers are not willing to be the next ones to be transported when they retreat. After all, staying means death. Whether they can get the assault boats to turn back is still open to question. Moreover,
Because the vice-admiral of the navy took away some senior officials, almost all the soldiers left behind were soldiers. Even if there were some low-level officers, they could not order all the soldiers. Naturally, these soldiers did not want to give in to each other, and no one wanted to stay to resist the rebels.
Nor do they want to be the soldiers transported by the assault boat next time.
As a result, none of the four small assault boats was able to leave. Two of them were directly overturned by the Qi soldiers who were fighting for them, and they could never be turned over again. When the Qi soldiers saw this situation, they became even more emotional.
Unable to control it. Coupled with the approach of the Jieyi Army, these Qi soldiers actually started to use knives on each other to fight for the right to board the ship. It was not until the Jieyi Army eliminated the Qi soldiers who were still resisting on land and reached the shallow water area that these Qi soldiers
The army is still fighting hard.
"Fire arrows! Don't get close, these people have gone crazy!" Li Qingping looked at the soldiers of Qi whose eyes were red with killing, and immediately frowned and ordered. He would not let his soldiers go forward to fight with the opponent directly.
Use bows and arrows to deal with these defeated troops who even killed their own troops.
On board more than a dozen naval warships, the Qi Army sailors, the eight hundred Qi Army naval soldiers who had not yet come ashore, and the Qi King's special envoy all looked at the battle situation outside Quantang City, a thousand meters away, with livid faces.
This time they came to raid the rebel army with high hopes, but they did not take this rebel army in their eyes. Although it was said that the rebel army was supported by the Zhao army, its essence was still composed of rebels. Therefore, in their view,
Come on, this mission is extremely easy. Even if we fail to break the city in the end, there should be no problem in retreating smoothly.
However, so far in this battle, three-quarters of their soldiers have been lost. Not to mention destroying the city, even the general died outside the city, but he gave them a blow in the head.
"Sir, it's time to withdraw the troops! We have no way to rescue them." Looking at the battlefield outside the city that has been controlled by the Jieyi Army and the people of Tangcheng who have been killed from the city, the navy commander who stayed behind had tears in his eyes.
Said to the special envoy of King Qi.
"Retreat! The damn Jieyi Army!" King Qi's special envoy gritted his teeth and said angrily. Although these naval soldiers have nothing to do with him, he does not want his side to be defeated. After all, if this battle is won, he will also have credit.
.
The battle in Quantang City finally ended. After the reinforcements of the Jieyi Army arrived, the Qi Army was severely defeated. The Jieyi Army had no navy or warships, so it could only watch the Qi Army and Navy lose most of their strength.
Leave. Otherwise, I am afraid that the Qi army and navy, which have lost their courage after being killed at sea, will all be left behind.
Half an hour later, the following two thousand infantrymen also hurried over. However, when they arrived, the battle had already ended. However, this battle also made the Jieyi Army understand that the eastern cities were not very safe. Therefore,
These two thousand soldiers will also be stationed here, responsible for the defense of the coastal towns dozens of miles north and south.
"Captain Lin, how do you feel? You are almost turning into a big rice dumpling! Haha..." Looking at Lin Hei's appearance, Li Qingping, who came to check, couldn't help laughing.
"The Captain... no, it should be the Captain. It's okay. I, Lin Heizi, feel relieved about this battle. However, it is also thanks to the Captain who came to the rescue in time, otherwise..." Lin Hei laughed happily. Because
After the victory of this battle, Lin Hei's rank was also promoted to Qingqi Colonel, becoming a mid-level position. His military position was Jiaxing County Jieyi Army Garrison Colonel, responsible for the defense of the eastern parts of Jiaxing County.
"The reason why I can appear here is because the Qi army and navy raided other places in our east. Judging from the news we have now, our Jieyi army was attacked in five places in the east. Three places directly killed the Qi army, and two places
It was occupied by the Qi army, but now it has been recaptured by us. Of course, the price we paid is not small." Li Qingping said with a solemn face.
"Fifth Bureau? It seems that the Qi army is really going to attack us with all its strength this time." Lin Hei's face darkened and he said in a condensed voice.
Li Qingping nodded and said: "Because the Qi army learned that our rebels were supported by Zhao Jun. In addition, they guessed that all the rebels in Yangzhou East were supported by Zhao Jun. Therefore, they have now begun a full-scale counterattack.
.In addition, according to the prisoners we captured, no
Not only our rebel army, but also other rebel armies, also have the Qi army and navy attack. The first purpose is to open a front line behind the rebel army and attack from both sides. The second is to separate us from the eastern sea area and the enemy behind us.
Zhao State and various maritime trade to obtain supplies."
"Then the other rebels, wouldn't it be..."
"It's very dangerous, but we can't do anything about it. This is beyond our control. If they can't hold on, it means that the situation of the rebels along the way is already very bad." Li Qingping's face also became heavy. It was not because of him.
He is concerned about these rebels, but if the other rebels are surrounded and suppressed by the Qi army, then his own rebel army will become the only target of the Qi army and will withstand the full siege of the Qi army.
"There are more than 2,000 people left here, and Lieutenant Lin has to bear the defense of more than ten towns and villages in the southern front line. Although the Qi army was defeated this time and retreated, no one can guarantee that they will not attack again. Moreover,
, this time the Qi Army has suffered such heavy losses, there is no guarantee that the Qi Army will not send out a large army to retaliate. Therefore, Captain Lin must be careless. However, I believe that Colonel Lin will not let us down. "
Lin Hei said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, you can rest assured. As long as the bidders are not killed in battle, the eastern part of Jiaxing County will never be occupied by the Qi army. However, just in case, we will increase the training of these various areas."
Only the young and strong in the villages and towns will do. In addition, we also need to replenish some armor and equipment here. This time the Qi army suffered a big loss when they attacked, also because they were not well prepared and did not carry armor and equipment. Next time, they may not
You would be so careless."
Li Qingping nodded and said: "Just do the training for young people from all over the country. As for the armor and equipment, we don't have them yet. However, soon, merchant ships will come here quietly and transport a batch of food and crossbows for us.
Then you will have the armor and weapons you need."
Lin Hei said in surprise: "Didn't it say that the Qi army and navy have blocked the eastern sea area? Can merchant ships come here?"
Li Qingping smiled and said: "They are right to block the sea area, and our Zhao navy is not willing to fight them directly now. However, this time the Qi army's navy dispersed operations, it gave us an opportunity. The merchant ships transporting supplies this time,
There should be no problem coming here. In addition, the merchant ships will sail to Wang Nanxin under the banner of Zhao Jun and suddenly arrive here, and Qi Jun’s navy will not notice them."
In the next few days, the entire Quantang City was in a state of excitement. In addition to being happy for defeating Zhao Jun, many soldiers, the young men in the city, and the money promised to the gentry and wealthy households in the city also received their money one by one.
The people also fell into joy because of this. Of course, there were also many soldiers and young people
Zhuang died in this battle, but all the money they deserved has been delivered to them one by one. In addition, in order to commend these soldiers for their heroic fighting, their families first allocated fields and gave them seeds and agricultural tools.
So that they will not have problems in their lives because of the death of their young men in the family.
A few days later at night, after the docks outside Quantang City were cleared, more than ten large merchant ships arrived. This merchant ship not only brought a large amount of food and military equipment to the Jieyi Army, but also some craftsmen and
Some civil servants.
The craftsmen are here to build armor and equipment for the Jieyi Army. After all, armor and equipment are the basic needs of an army. They cannot always rely on Zhao to provide them. Of course, even if Zhao can continue to provide them with supplies, there is a Qi army in the eastern sea.
Due to the naval blockade, they could not always transport supplies through merchant ships.
Zhao's navy is naturally not afraid of Qi's navy. Even in a full-scale war, Qi will definitely win. However, this requires the mobilization of three navies from north to south to ensure complete victory. However, the current Zhao navy needs to be deterred by the northern part.
Among the Yizhou countries, the southern part was attacking Linyi, Zhenla and other countries in Yuezhou south of Jiaozhou, and they could not be easily transferred. Therefore, Zhao Guocai did not raise a banner to support the Jieyi army.
Of course, if you support the Jieyi Army head-on, unless Zhao Jun from the north formally attacks the south, it will only make the Qi Army's attack on the Jieyi Army more fierce. Now the Qi Army is asking Zhao Jun to provide grain, grass, supplies and soldiers for the rebel army in eastern Yangzhou.
A utensils had such a big reaction. If the rebels in eastern Yangzhou directly raised the flaming unicorn flag, who knows what would happen.
The actions of the Qi Army and Navy this time surprised all the rebels. Except for the Jieyi Army and the other two groups, which were more careful to block the Qi Army's naval attack, the rest were only one group that did not face the sea and were not attacked by the Qi Army's navy.
The rest of the six larger rebel armies were all attacked by the Qi army and navy, and suffered considerable losses. Of course, those small groups of rebels were not included in them. After all, there were people revolting under the banner of the rebels every few days.
These rebels either really want to revolt, go against Qi State, and want a better life. Or they are some ambitious people who want to take advantage of this to do something. In addition, there are some who are going on.
The banner of the rebels wants to do whatever they want. After all, there are other large groups of rebels in front, and they are not worried about being immediately besieged by the Qi State. Of course, the Qi State has no time to worry about these small and negligible bandits at the moment.
The rebel team.
The Qi army's counterattack not only surprised the Jie Yi Army and the various rebel armies, but also Zhao Xun and others were shocked. They did not expect that Murong Cheng's reaction this time would be so big. It was just because our side was prepared for these
The rebels provided some supplies, and the Qi army's navy directly began to counterattack on land, allowing the navy to fight on land.
In order to prevent the Jieyi Army from being surrounded and suppressed by the angry Qi Army, Zhao Xun also asked the Zhao Army in Xuzhou to make some corresponding actions. The army began to move south, and the Dongting Lake Navy also began to step up its war preparations, hoping to cross the Huaihe River.
The purpose of going south was to force the Qi army in Yangzhou not to easily turn back south to encircle the Jieyi army, so as to reduce the pressure on the Jieyi army.
It was also because of this action of the Qi Army that Zhao Xun ordered Qingzhou to prepare a batch of supplies and transport them to the land of the Jieyi Army. At the same time, a naval escort was also sent. In addition, some civilian officials were also sent.
The reason why civilian officials were dispatched was because after the Jieyi Army took control of the local area, they also began to govern the local area and began to imitate the Zhao State to implement new policies and systems at the local level. Although what the Jieyi Army did was not the same as that of the Zhao State,
Like Yanzhou in the past, various policies and systems have begun to approach Zhao.
No one is more familiar with these systems and policies than the officials of the Zhao State. Although the Jieyi Army is under the banner of a rebel army, it is a civil uprising and a rebel army after all. There are relatively few scholars in hand, and there are few scholars who are willing to do things.
There are also very few. Therefore, they have a shortage of civil servants.
In addition, in order to prevent the policies and systems under the rule of the Jieyi Army from being modified and used by some gentry families, and in order to prevent these gentry families from taking over the power of local government, which would be detrimental to the Jieyi Army's control of the local area and Zhao's subsequent takeover of the area, Zhao must
send
Civilians control this place. Regarding combat, Zhao Xun is not worried about the Jieyi Army. But when it comes to managing the place, none of the officers he sent are good at this aspect. But this does not mean that Zhao Xun is willing to let this
The power of local officials fell into the hands of others.
In addition, Zhao Xun sent civilian officials to manage the local area in order to strengthen Zhao Jun's influence here. Whether it is the army or local governance, Zhao Jun must be in control. Otherwise, either the rebels will form another force, or,
During the battle with the Qi army in the future, something unexpected will happen in this place.
You must know that this civil servant is responsible for managing the people's livelihood, finance and taxation, garrison and even military logistics in this place, which is not simple. If his own people are not in control, how can Zhao Xun support them with various supplies with such confidence?
This action of the Qi Army and Navy caused extremely heavy damage to the rebels. The direct losses were not huge, but the consequences were considerable. Of the six rebels in the eastern city who were occupied by the Qi Army and Navy, four of them
After paying a heavy price in time, they finally managed to bring them all together.
The army and navy were repulsed. However, the remaining two groups located in the north of Kuaiji were used by the Qi army to transport troops continuously and capture many areas. Even the two groups of rebels were almost wiped out and finally lost the city.
They had to retreat south and join other rebels.
After these two groups, the rebels who occupied a very key position, and the two more powerful groups in the south were defeated by the Qi army, the rebels in the counties in the eastern part of Yangzhou and the northeastern coast of Jiangzhou were divided into two by the Qi army.
, a heavy blow to the original strength of the rebels.
The momentum of rapid development and rapid growth. You must know that as the rebels continue to rise, especially after the Jieyi Army merged with several rebel armies, there has been a steady stream of rebel uprisings in various places. But now, the rebels in various places are preparing to rise.
They all still stopped.
