"The Grand Marshal, the last general, is incompetent, and loses Governor Wang.>8__>>w-ww.|"

Hearing this, Chen Wen was stunned on the spot. Because he learned from the pioneer troops that they had had a confrontation with the Qing army stationed in the local area when they passed by Sheng County. Seeing Wu Dengke and Li Ruixin looking heartbroken, Chen Wen once thought Wang Jiang was unfortunately killed in that conflict.

However, as Wu Dengke and Li Ruixin told the whole story, Chen Wen found that things were not as uncontrollable as he thought.

Wang Jiang was indignant of Wu and Li's self-decision, and went alone to persuade Yu Guowang to travel with Ming troops not far from the temporary old camp of Tiantai Mountain to provide greater strength for Chen Wen's anti-encirclement and suppression in Jinhua.

There are many things in this regard that these people will have a certain effect on Chen Wen in the future, so as to prevent him from having a rude travel in Zhejiang. But after all, Wang Jiang's guard is far from being able to seize military power. After all, due to the sequelae of the Battle of Siming Lake, Chen Wen's ability is still extremely strong in his eyes, especially in military affairs.

Since Wang Jiang himself had the position of the governor of Zhejiang by the Lu Jianguo Qinfeng, he was the nominal military supervisor of the entire Ming army in Tiantai Mountain. After he persuaded Yu Guowang, he went to the camp of the Houying camp and the remaining Jintang troops to lobby. However, when this migrant unit crossed Xinchang, Yu Guowang caught up with the team, but Wang Jiang never followed him, and there was still no news of Wang Jiang when he arrived here.

The news of Wang Jiang made Wu Dengke and Li Ruixin anxious as if they were ants on a hot pan. However, after entering Sheng County, the local army stationed in the Shaoxing Green Camp forced up. The two of them struggled to cover the old camp and the people while repelling the Qing army that followed. They really could not spend too much energy to care about Wang Jiang. After they got out of danger, they immediately sent a team of cavalry back to find Wang Jiang.

Wang Jiang has the status of governor of Zhejiang, and is a civil servant under Chen Wen's army. He has a great reputation in eastern Zhejiang. Even in Jinhua, western Zhejiang, many people know about it.＿﹏w·ww.|If such a person dies for no reason, it will inevitably have a very bad impact on the entire anti-Qing cause in western Zhejiang.

And more importantly, in recent years, hundreds of rebels in the anti-Qing rebels in eastern Zhejiang Province, only Wang Yi's Dalanshan Ming army can truly grow stronger. This is Wang Yi's persistence in military discipline. Wang Jiang is indispensable to manage logistics behind him. Otherwise, no matter how strong the army cannot be guaranteed, it will either allow military discipline to be corrupted or strangle itself to death.

Therefore, if Wang Jiang is gone, Chen Wen, the Ming army, who is preparing to make a difference in Jinhua, will feel like his arm is broken.

When Chen Wen forced himself to calm down and helped the two people in front of him up, he asked in detail about the details.

"What did Governor Wang say when he left the old camp?"

Wu Dengke thought for a while and then took the lead in answering: "Reporting to the Grand Marshal, Governor Wang said that he would try his best to convince Xinchang Bo, Deputy General Ye of the Back Battalion and the officers who led the old camp of Jin Shuai went to Jinhua together, thinking that the Grand Marshal's help."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wen immediately thought in his mind. Yu Guowang had arrived in Jinhua at this moment, so the problem was most likely to be Ye Shirong and Jin Tang's subordinates. However, the combat effectiveness of these two departments was not very good. Even if they wanted to move Wang Jiang, they would ask whether the team responsible for guarding Wang Jiang could make them do what they wanted.

"Who is the officer leading the escort Governor Wang? How many troops are there in total?"

"Report to the commander, the officer leading the team is Niu Ping'an. The Mo General and Deputy General Li divided into two teams of the Yuanyang formation killer team, one team of firearms and another team of cavalry are responsible for protecting Governor Wang's safety."

Although there are not many troops, if the twenty or so people from the Governor's Guard are added, these two remnants can do anything easily.> ＿w ·w`w`.|` As for the officer leading the team, Chen Wen also knew, Wu Dengke's fellow countryman. One of the dozens of people who swore to follow him in the Sun's courtyard was an officer who knew how to perform his duties. Using him to protect Wang Jiang was a man of great success.

Then, Chen Wen asked the officer of the cavalry team he was sent to look for. The answer he received was also a trustworthy officer in his impression.

Since that's the case, it's all for the time being. An officer from the Shaoxing Green Camp captured by Li Ruixin in the previous confrontation learned that the encirclement and suppression was not only the green camps of Jin, Qu, Yan, and the four prefectures, but also the Shaoxing Green Camp and Fubiao Camp attacked from the north of Jinhua.

Such troops and deployment have come to Chen Wen's expectations. After all, the Battle of Zhoushan has just ended, and according to the principle, the mobile forces of the Qing army should still be in a state of exhaustion. Could it be that the noise he made before was too big? So the Qing army in Zhejiang would destroy him this year at all costs?

The Qing army's response was his imagination, but this was not the most important thing.

With the arrival of the old camp, the news of Wang Yi's death and the failure of the Ming army in Zhoushan began to spread all over the world. More and more local people showed a dissatisfaction with the future of this lonely army, so that not long after, the donation of materials outside the Ming army occupied the area completely stopped; within the Ming army occupied the area, the attitudes of some aristocratic families began to become ambiguous, and only the grasshoppers who had been tied to the Ming army were still trying their best to help the Ming army.

It is true that Wang Yi died, and it is true that the Ming army failed in the Battle of Zhoushan, and even Wang Jiang disappeared. In this regard, Chen Wen could only train the army harder and hope to defeat the encirclement and suppression of the Qing army, so as to offset these adverse effects on the Ming army with military victory.

The tasks of resettling the old camp personnel, military families and people were all handed over to Sun Yu, and Chen Wen mixed the remaining troops and the new camps who arrived in Nantang Camp, thus obtaining a new version of Nantang Camp with the full-scale infringement, cavalry, artillery and affiliated troops, and Dongyang and Yiwu, two of them only have infantry teams, and they also use bows and arrows as long-range fire support, as well as several garrison troops as supplements.

The troops were only so many for a while, and even so, the supplies in their hands could only barely survive this year. Even according to Sun Yu's calculations, it may not even be enough to reward during the New Year.

People often say that when a cannon fires, there will be tens of taels of gold. The cannon has not yet fired, and Chen Wen can no longer bear it.

The fall of the Dalanshan base area led to the fact that the old camp, which was not very strong in its economic foundation, was completely beaten to the point of being completely defeated; by seizing and trading, Chen Wen reluctantly gathered the start-up capital to enter Jinhua; as a result, it only appeared in Jinhua that the warehouse here was far less than he had imagined; it was a show and advertising, and finally it received certain support from local people. As a result, the Ming army in Zhejiang suffered consecutive failures during this period, so that the general trend was already in an absolutely unfavorable situation. With the news, these support began to decline significantly; if Wang Jiang's affairs were added...

Chen Wen had some expectations of these problems at first, but the reality was much more harsh than he expected, and a more harsh reality followed.

In late October of the fifth year of Yongli, the Dubiao Camp entered Jinhua Prefecture after completing the preliminary rest and joined Ma Jinbao and other troops as the main force of the encirclement and suppression.

At the same time, the Fubiao camp on the northern line also began to move. Only when the Shaoxing Green Camp knocked out two big teeth on the unit that migrated to the old camp not long ago, did it not show too positive trends. However, if the Ming army became more and more unfavorable in the battle situation, these Qing troops would definitely pounce on like evil dogs.

With historical knowledge and recent inquiries, Chen Wen made a rough calculation.

Among the Qing army on the southern front, the Zhejiang-Fu Governor General Biao Battalion had more than 3,000 troops; some of the Biao Battalion in Jinhua Town were destroyed before, and those who could escape were unable to form combat power for a while because of the dispersion of the system. In addition, the two hundred soldiers guarding the road in Jinqu Yan should have about 2,000 troops; while the green camps of Quzhou, Yanzhou and Chuzhou each came one battalion. According to the information, Chen Wen knew that the green camps of these three prefectures were each divided into two battalions, so each battalion would have about 800 people.

In this way, the Qing army's soldiers on the southern front were about 7,000 to 7,500. According to the Qing green camp military system, the composition of Zhejiang troops should be a step-by-step nine. If the cavalry that included the horses and treasures were basically taken in Dongyang County, the Qing army should have about 600 cavalry to be used on this local battlefield.

Relatively speaking, the Qing army on the northern line only played an auxiliary role, but the force should not be underestimated. The Zhejiang Governor Battalion had a force of 2,000, and went south to Yiwu from Zhuji; the cooperation in the Green Camp in Shaoxing had more than 2,000 people. In addition to defending the troops from all over the country, more than 1,000 troops also entered Sheng County and were always ready to go south to Dongyang County.

This time, the Qing army had more than 10,000 soldiers, and Chen Wen had only the Nantang Camp, which was only a few thousand people, and he could only barely guaranteed to wear armor. As for the other two battalions and garrison troops, all of them were infantry organizations, and almost all were armourless infantry.

In addition, Zhou Qingui of Luochengyan, Dongyang County is still hesitating. Although Chen Wen knew that this person insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty in history until his death, he was still alone when he was with him and even the familiar anti-Qing righteous army leaders accepted the official positions and titles of the Lu State. God knows whether he would jump out of Luochengyan during the bloody battle between Chen Wen and the Qing army and make a big fuss.

Previously, Chen Wen unexpectedly entered Jinhua Prefecture with his control of history and created a huge momentum. However, the strength of the Qing army in Zhejiang was still strong, and the Ming army in Zhoushan had already suffered a great defeat and was forced to retreat south.

In just over a month, Chen Wen's situation took a sharp turn for the worse. It had deteriorated to an unparalleled level, and all he could do was one thing.
