Chapter 48 Rewrite
However, with Fujian Admiral Yang Minggao and Fujian Left General Wang Zhigang leading his troops to support Jiangxi, the Jiangxi Ming army was defeated almost every battle in front of these two elite troops of Fujian Qing army. In just over a year, the Jiangxi Ming army, which had originally "continuous camp for hundreds of miles and moved hundreds of thousands", began to collapse. Now only one of Zhang Zisheng's troops is left, and there are also many elderly, weak, women and children.
Historically, the Qing army in Jiangxi often needed the help of the Qing army in other places. The Qing army in Fujian who helped suppress the "Four Great Bandits of Jiangxi", the Qing army in Zhejiang and Fujian who helped suppress the Jiuxianshan rebels, and the Eight Banners army in Yunxiaoshan rebels, etc. These "foreign aids" strongly supported the Qing army in Jiangxi to suppress the local anti-Qing armed forces, while also exposing the combat capabilities of the Jiangxi Green Camp itself.
For this remaining Ming army in Jiangxi, whether the Qing army in Fujian is present is of great importance. After waiting anxiously for the result, Zhang Zisheng walked around the central army's tent, making his military advisor Gong Jirong a little impatient.
"Pingjiang Bo, please be calm. Anyway, the Tartars have retreated for the time being. If you can't ask, you will always have a result when you send someone down the mountain to visit the secretly."
Zhang Zisheng knew very well that what Gong Jirong said was the right thing, but the Dajueyan Mountain Village was almost out of food. If he didn't think of a solution, he would starve himself to death on the mountain without the Qing army coming to attack, asking him how he could "be calm and not be impatient."
He wanted to relieve his nervousness by chatting with Gong Jirong, but before he could speak, the officer in charge of interrogation had already walked towards the tent in three steps in two steps.
After sitting back, the officer said, "Report to the Lord, those Tartars have been tricked: Last year, a general named Chen from the Zhejiang King's Division captured Jinhua Prefecture, and last month he even entered Quzhou and defeated the local Qing army. Yesterday, the dog thief of Wang Zhigang had already rushed back to rescue the Tartar Governor. Now it is estimated that he is almost at Guangxin Prefecture, and now only the local green camp in Jiangxi is left!"
When Chen Wen captured Jinhua, Zhang Zisheng was busy retreating here under the Qing army's troops, so he didn't know that such a big incident occurred in Jinhua, which was separated by the two palaces, and he didn't even know the Battle of Zhoushan. But now he was benefiting from this incident. For a moment, Zhang Zisheng sat there, as if he was crazy.
In fact, if Zheng Chenggong had not been besieged Zhangzhou in history, Yang Minggao was forced to return to support and was beaten by Zheng Chenggong, and Zhang Zisheng would not have the chance to hold on until May. Now, with Chen Wen's large-scale attack on Quzhou, surrounding the Governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, Chen Jin, in the prefecture of Quzhou, the new Jiangxi Governor Cai Shiying, who had just taken office last month, directly sent Wang Zhigangli, the left general of Fujian who was aiding Jiangjiang to Quzhou. The reason for this is not only that he did not know much about the combat effectiveness of the Jiangxi Green Camp, but also to firmly grasp the great achievements of completely destroying the "Four Great Bandits of Jiangxi" in the hands of Jiangxi civil and military officials, without having to share too much to Fujian.
