Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 246 post war

After setting fire to the camp, the brave young men in the Confucius Camp also picked up the weapons left by the Qing soldiers and bravely chased down the fleeing Qing soldiers. Even this group of masters who were so hungry that they could barely walk even forced to land hundreds of Qing soldiers.

The Qing army on the northern, southern and riverside lines all collapsed, but the Qing army on the eastern line still retained the establishment and slowly retreated, and there was no tragic situation of the Qing army in other directions.

After Chen Qice's troops and the Taiping Army joined forces, they immediately mobilized their elites to pursue the Qing army in the east. After the Qing army retreated to the east, the troops of Shang's own family were used to protect the standard soldiers of the brigade. Chen Bu launched two attacks, both of which were repelled by Shang's own soldiers. The leading generals gathered their troops and horses to follow slowly, and no longer attacked the Qing army's cavalry easily, but only tried to drive away the incident.

Zhou Shixiang originally wanted to meet with the navy commander Chen Qice to discuss follow-up matters, but the personal soldiers who went to contact him reported that the navy commander, General Ling Hai, was arranging to chase the enemy and could not meet with Zhou Shixiang in isolation for a while. If it is convenient for Zhou Shixiang, he can go and negotiate with General Ling Hai.

Hearing this, Zhou Shixiang couldn't help but frown slightly. The flag of the navy commander was General Ling Hai. This was obviously the chief officer of the Nanming court with the title of general. In the Nanming officialdom, he was a unique figure, compared to the one without the general's seal. The general should be one level higher.

Although the number of generals in the Ming Dynasty army has become excessive since the Chongzhen period, after Jiashen, the small court of the Nanming Dynasty even more wanton nobility. There are countless dukes, uncles and marquis, even two kings with different surnames, and the mere additions The commander-in-chief of the General is really not worth mentioning. However, Zhou Shixiang did not have any official status in the Yongli court, and what he had in his hands was the official badge and seal of Luoding Prefecture, who was awarded to Hu Quan by Cheng Bangjun, the military officer of the Yongli court, which led to Zhou Shixiang's status after leading the Taiping Army. Embarrassingly, he has neither received the approval of the Yongli court to take over the post of Luo Dingzhou's counselor, nor has he obtained a new order from the Yongli court, so in essence, Zhou Shixiang is now a commoner, even in his newly built Taiping. The head of the barracks did not have the official identity of Nanming.

A group of civilians said that the good ones are the righteous teachers, and the bad ones are the bandits. Although the Yongli court has recognized the righteous teachers from all over the past few years, and even took the initiative to recruit bandits from all over the world, this does not mean that the generals of the Ming army are genuine. Just look at these righteous teachers. It doesn't mean that the leaders of these righteous teachers can get the right eyes of Nanming officials.

Although Chen Qice did not move forward, he led his troops ashore when the Taiping army was dying, and forced the Qing army to retreat. Therefore, both in public and private, he was very kind to the Taiping army and Zhou Shixiang. Don't say anything else. Based on this alone, Zhou Shixiang should have taken the initiative to see Chen Qice, but the words of his personal soldiers made Zhou Shixiang quite playful. This battle was won, but the dominance of the Xinhui after the victory seemed to be quietly changing. In the face of General Ling Hai's army with far more troops than his own, Zhou Shixiang must be careful.

Thoughtful. He ordered Qin Zhisheng and Shao Jiugong to gather troops immediately, clean the battlefield, treat wounded soldiers, and no longer participate in the pursuit of the east to withdraw the Qing army. Zhou Shixiang emphasized that those who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty were not to be brutally killed except for the officers, and they were all taken back to the city to be taken care of.

Shao Jiugong hesitated for a while, he knew that Zhou Shixiang had taken a fancy to the Qing army prisoners, but what if the navy side also took a fancy to it.

Zhou Shixiang waved his hands and said: "We do ours, the navy does theirs, the two are irrelevant. If the navy interferes in our affairs, there is no need to back down. It's just a matter of reasoning, it's all the big Ming soldiers and horses, and the war is won, and I want to come to the water. The teacher's side won't be too much."

"The Qing Yao was defeated. There must be food left in the camp. Our army has already run out of food. This food cannot be taken by the navy." Qin Zhisheng mentioned the most important thing, that is, the food and grass left by the Qing army.

Zhou Shixiang made a final decision: "It's not too late, you can go and collect it. I want people, I want food, and the weight of weapons is counted as much as I can get, remember. Don't conflict with the navy, and let me know if you have anything. , I'm going to talk to General Ling Hai."

After instructing these matters, Zhou Shixiang sent someone to find Song Xianggong. He urgently needed the guidance of this "three surnames are slaves" officialdom old fritters on how to treat General Ling Hai. And he must also explain his next steps to this partner in order to get the latter's full support.

Xinhui is not a place to stay for a long time, even if this victory, Zhou Shixiang does not want to stay in Xinhui. The feeling of suffering in a lonely city is really terrible. He needs a new world, a world where he no longer has to worry about whether he will see the sun tomorrow morning.

......

Withdrawing the Qing army to the east successfully prevented Chen Qice’s pursuit, but when they retreated to Xin’anpo, they were attacked by Tie Yi’s army who had detoured here from the southern line, causing the Qing army to stop retreating. Seeing this, the following Chen Bu was busy. Approaching.

There were less than 200 Taiping troops in Tie Yi's department. Facing the Qing army with several times their strength, Tie Yi did not blindly launch a frontal attack, but attacked the Qing army by relying on the woods. When the entire Qing army came to suppress it, he quickly led his troops to dodge, the Qing army continued to retreat, and he led his troops to attack from the flank. Several attacks made the Qing army a headache.

After being attacked by the Taiping Army again, Zuo Ling Xiang Guokui personally led dozens of flag soldiers into the forest, only to be hit by the last thunderbolt hidden by Tie Yi. In the sound of the explosion, Xiang Guokui's warhorse stepped into a pit in the forest impartially. The warhorse screamed and fell off Xiang Guokui from the horse, forcibly breaking one of his legs.

"Come and save me!"

The severe pain of the broken leg made Xiang Guokui shout, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com found footsteps coming from the surrounding forest, his voice trembled with fright, and he hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to help him up.

Unexpectedly, the dozens of flag soldiers who followed him into the forest turned around and went out of the forest at the same time when the explosion occurred. Among them were Xiang Guokui's personal soldiers. Come to the cry of the knife in the Guokui.

Qin Guocheng was furious when he had to report that the leader of the Guokui had lost the battle, and urgently called his own soldiers to protect the two flanks. Under the protection of their own cavalry, Tie Yi's troops could no longer successfully attack the Qing army, and had no choice but to retreat and join the brigade.

Chen Bu, who was following behind, found that the Qing army did not stop the whole team to fight back, but was relieved. After sending people to evacuate the Qing army to the east to report to Chen Qice, the leading generals still carefully followed the Qing army, only to the Qing army. After the army "sent" more than 20 miles away, the generals gave orders to withdraw their troops and retreat.

After this battle, the outside of Xinhui City was a mess. Zhou Shixiang met General Ling Hai Chen Qice by the river.

Looking at the white-haired General Ling Hai in front of him, Zhou Shixiang was very surprised, but what surprised him even more was the incomparable enthusiasm and praise from the white-haired old general. To be continued.
