Eight days later, the Qing army held a new oath ceremony, and relied on the excessive rewards and the promise of looting after the war to boost morale.

At this moment, the Qing army attacking Zhoushan, led by General Pingnan Gushan Ezhen Jinli, began to board the ship and waited for sailing.

At the same time, on the other side of the Zhoushan Strait, Zhoushan City on the Zhoushan Islands.

Based on the information obtained and Chen Wen's deduction, the Lu Jian State court finally decided to use Hu Hou Ruan Jin to lead the navy to guard the sea from Dinghai to Zhoushan; and use Anyang General Liu Shixun, Governor Zhang Mingyang and Zhongzhen General Ma Tai to lead three battalions to cooperate with the people to be responsible for Zhoushan city defense.

The reason for this is that it is more because the Qing army's naval forces are not as good as the Ming army, and the Ming army has famous naval generals like Danghu Hou Ruan Jin, so it should be difficult for the Qing army to make a difference.

Just as Zhang Mingzhen once said when he was in the commentary, "The natural danger of Jiaoguan is familiar with the hyacinth, and the troops on the sea are familiar with the hyacinth, and they must not be crossed out at once." It is precisely for this reason that only three battalions of troops were left to stay in Zhoushan City, which is crucial.

Unlike the past history, since Chen Wen and Yu Guowang expressed that they would conduct restraining operations against the Qing army on the southern front, they finally decided to lead most of the remaining naval troops to the north to fight against the Wu Song naval troops; Zhang Huangyan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War who was originally in charge of the northern front, and General Yingyi, Ruan Jun, the son of Ruan Jin, led a small number of naval troops to the south to monitor the movements of the Qing army's Jinhua General Ma Jinbao, led the Qing army's naval troops to the south, led by Ma Jinbao, the general of Jinhua, General of Jinhua, General of Jinhua, and Wenzhou.

The plan has been confirmed, and no further changes will be made. Since the Qing army planned to attack Zhoushan today, the Ming army on the northern front, which was personally led by the Lu Jianguo, and the Ming army on the southern front, which was responsible for surveillance, were ready to set sail.

At this moment, at the port outside Zhoushan City, the Lu Jianguo read out the sacrificial text to worship the sea god surrounded by civil and military officials.

"I am the ninth generation grandson of Emperor Gao of the Ming Dynasty. Since Emperor Gaozu expelled Hu Yuan, he buried the sacred and softened all gods. All gods in rivers, rivers, rivers, and rivers are worshipped. The gods are the most respected and large in the water. The officials are responsible for the sacrifices, which are sacrificing for three hundred years. How can the gods forget it? The recent ones are in a state of sacrificial power and live in the capital, but they do not know whether they have sacrificed their sacrifices as before? If the animals are placed on the sacrificial power and sacrificial powers and bowed to the lower houses, they will all be with their hair and hair on the left and right lapels. They will know that the gods will rise up in anger and give up but do not enjoy it."

"I revolt in eastern Zhejiang, and I have been with firewood and gall for seven years, and two years have passed here. The wind does not stir, the rain can moisten the soil, and I treasure the wrong things. I have given them fresh. I also know that the gods do not forget their virtues. I have received their blessings. Now I travel like a forest, and the Central Plains respond. I will lead civil and military officers to swear to set sail and work together to do great things. I sincerely warn the preparations and tell the time for the departure. After the start of the journey, the sun and the moon are bright, the stars are rotten, the wind and rain are thin, the water waves are not alarmed, the yellow dragon winds, the purple air is misty, the oars and oars work together, and the left and right are united. Success is determined, and the spirit is honored and the gods are eating the fragrance of my great Ming for all ages."

"Today is the beginning, and it is revealed."

This sacrificial text was written by Zhang Huangyan and was later included in the "Zhang Cangshui Collection". The sacrifice to the sea god was nothing more than to obtain the protection of the gods and to inspire the morale of the army. After inspiring morale, the Lu Jianguo boarded the ship with Zhang Mingzhen and the Ming soldiers who fought against the Qing army on the Northern Front. But at this moment, Zhang Mingzhen stepped forward to advise.

"My mother is old and dare not leave easily, for fear that the soldiers will be cold. My heart is that the Lord will lead the six divisions and wear armor. It is reasonable. How can the prince leave easily? Otherwise, the people will feel resentment."

The original intention of Lu Jianguo was to lead the prince to see the battle formation, but this battle was related to life and death. If Lu Jianguo and the prince were not there, the morale of Zhoushan's army would definitely be uneasy. Seeing this, Lu Jianguo, who had always been "performing good", had to give up this idea. In this way, the Lu Jianguo, the prince, stayed in Zhoushan City with Lu Jianguo, the Chinese ministers of the court, and the families of military generals who went to war with the army.

The Ming army on both the north and south sides had set sail, and Ruan Jin, who was responsible for defending the coast of Zhoushan, continued to wait for the Qing army to move across the strait. At this time, the Linhai County, Taizhou Prefecture hundreds of miles away, was a different scene.

Since Chen Wen and Yu Guowang captured Tiantai County, the Ming army in Taizhou has been like being stimulant. Whether it was those who received Yu Guowang's letters or those who had not received them at all, they went down the mountain to attack the Qing army in various places.

The Ming army in Tiantai Mountain has been in a long rise, but it has not captured the county town like the Ming army in Siming Mountain. This time, with the help of Chen Wen, Yu Guowang took over the Tiantai County that had made him return two years ago, which greatly boosted the morale of the Ming army in various departments of Taizhou. For a time, the entire Tiantai County instantly became the ocean of the Ming army, and many other counties were attacked by the Ming army, and the entire Taizhou Prefecture was instantly in chaos.

After parting with Chen Wen, Yu Guowang quickly rose by taking advantage of Tiantai County's warehouse and tax collection. However, he did not stay in Tiantai County for long. Before the news of Tiantai County's fall spread, he entered Sanmen County and captured the county town of Sanmen County with the help of Jintang arranged by Jintang.

According to his previous discussion with Chen Wen, Yu Guowang must prepare to besiege Linhai County regardless of whether he captured Sanmen County or not, so as to restrain the Qing army on the southern line so that he did not dare to act rashly at the risk of being cut off. At this time, Yu Guowang and several other Ming troops had arrived in Linhai County for several days, and always acted as if he was waiting for more Ming troops to arrive.

At the front of Linhai County, Taizhou General Ma Xin and Jinhua General Ma Jinbao stood side by side, looking at the direction of the Ming army camp in Tiantai Mountain in the distance. However, although the two stood side by side, the atmosphere was not so harmonious.

"This place is a place where the court is ordered by the government to be responsible for the garrison. Could it be that the bandits are allowed to go wild on their heads?"

Ma Jinbao, who had a Shanxi accent, opened his mouth and said these sarcastic words, which instantly attracted the glare of the generals around Ma Xin. However, Ma Xin seemed to not care about this.

Ma Xin was a native of Chang'an, Shaanxi. During the Chongzhen Dynasty, he was the general of this Taizhou town. After the Qing army advanced south, he chose to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, but the Qing court never considered letting him move.

The reason is that due to the geographical location and terrain of Taizhou, this Taizhou was never the key to the battle between the Ming and Qing armies; on the other hand, although Ma Xin's subordinates were mostly locals in Taizhou, he had been in Taizhou for a long time. If he rashly changed defenses and led to his surrender to the prestigious Lu State in Zhejiang, the Qing Dynasty's rule in Zhejiang would not be so stable.

Ma Xin was brave and fearless in fighting, and was quite insightful in controlling the details of military use. In history, he defeated the Dutch square formation using rifles with archers ten years later, which shows that.

In contrast, Ma Jinbao was from Xi County, Shanxi Province. During the Hongguang Dynasty, he was the deputy general of Anqing. Later, he was promoted to the general by replacing the Qing army with the conscription of Zhang Liang, Governor of Anluchi, Yang Zhenzong, Deputy General Li Zichun and other civil and military officials, as well as the more than 10,000 soldiers he commanded. After that, he followed Prince Duan Chong Boluo to the south and captured Jinhua Prefecture, and he had his own share of the massacre of the city.

When Boluo returned north, he was left as the general of Quzhou Town, responsible for the defense of the four prefectures of Jinhua, Quzhou, Yanzhou and Chuzhou. Until the third year of Yongli, Ma Jinbao was transferred from Quzhou to the general of Jinhua. He was only transferred to the capital and still managed the defense of these four prefectures to facilitate his suppression of Yin Can and Zhou Qingui's Baitou Army uprising, which can be regarded as an old acquaintance between Sun Yu and Wu Dengke and others.

In history, Qian Qianyi used his personal relationships to persuade him many times, but he was not able to do anything. It was not until the 13th year of Yongli that Zheng Chenggong made a northern expedition to Nanjing, and he was marching forward along the way, and he was very stunning to sweep away the Huyan in Jiangnan. Ma Jinbao, who had been renamed Ma Fengzhi, expressed his expression when Zheng Chenggong captured Nanjing and then made his public statement anyway. However, it was precisely because of this rat-headed two ends that he was executed by the Qing court in the name of Tonghai a year later.

Although both of them were surnamed Ma, they were both in the northwest of Zhejiang, and even the defense zones were bordered by each other, the relationship between the two was not harmonious.

Previously, when Ma Xin's subordinates Xu Shouxian participated in the encirclement and suppression of Yongshan, Dongyangshan in Jinhua, he sued Ma Jinbao for making way for private concessions, causing the local Ming army leader Xu Shouping to flee and was executed by the Qing court. However, when Xu Shouxian defeated Yu Guowang in the third year of Yongli, he then defended Tiantai County, it is hard to say what the truth is.

As the general of the military affairs of the four prefectures, Ma Jinbao was already more qualified than Ma Xin, the general who was responsible for Taizhou. This time, as the president of the southern line, he was ordered to lead the headquarters and Taizhou and Wenzhou navy headed north to participate in the siege of Zhoushan. However, when he started, Linhai County, which was the governor of Taizhou, was attacked by the Ming army.

In this way, great achievements are right in front of us, but Ma Jinbao stays here because his retreat may be cut off at any time. Naturally, he will not have any good expressions with Ma Xin.

"You are just a first time and don't know where this group of Tiantai Mountain bandits learned a new formation, which is not easy to break. There are not many artillery in this department, so I am preparing to unload the artillery on the warship and bombard the bandits' battle formation in the near future. As long as the formation is broken, it can be wiped out in one fell swoop."

Ma Xin's words were not perfunctory, but the result he obtained based on his observations over the past few days. However, the way he looked like he did not take Ma Jinbao seriously, Ma Jinbao was particularly angry in his eyes.

"The artillery on the warship is the weapon of the navy, for the purpose of attacking Zhoushan, and there is no right to mobilize it. The only bandits in Tiantai Mountain and the Zhenbiao camp in Taizhou are not opponents. If you say it, aren't you afraid that officials and generals from other provinces will laugh at the lack of people in Zhejiang?"

Although Ma Jinbao is better than Ma Xin in status, he is also the general, and Ma Xin is not his subordinate, so Ma Jinbao has no right to command Ma Xin. The post-war participation is inevitable, but now he can only use words to inspire Ma Xin's army to launch an attack.

However, Ma Jinbao has been accustomed to being arrogant in Jinhua for a long time and has always been used to being arrogant. His intentions are obvious now, so how could Ma Xin not see it?

"I know that my talent is a little bit unsophisticated. If I don't use artillery, I will not dare to retaliate against my integrity than a dignified battle. If you think that we will be ridiculed by guarding the city, then you might as well lead the brothers from Jinhua Town to fight and be willing to help from the side."

"you!"
