Chapter 56: Loyalty doesnt matter to the two masters!

Running towards the Beixi Bridge at a rapid march along the official road on the north bank of the Beixi River in the Rongjiang River were the Zuowuwei Battalion and Yongwei Battalion led by Liu Guoxuan, totaling 1,500 to 600 people.

This force landed last night from the dock of Beizhai (located on the north bank of the Rongjiang River) under the control of Da Laohui. After landing, they advanced along the north bank of the Rongjiang River and the north bank of the Rongjiang Beixi River, defeating four green camps along the way.

During the flood season, we were invincible all the way, heading straight to Beixi Bridge in Jieyang.

Because this morning, the three hundred cavalry led by Zhu Hesheng had successfully raided the Beixi Bridge, blocking the connection between Jieyang County and the north bank of the Beixi River. Therefore, the Tangma sent by Lvying Floodang who were attacked could not enter Jieyang County.

, Liu Jinzhong naturally had no way of knowing.

But even if Liu Jinzhong knew that Liu Guoxuan was leading more than a thousand Yanping Prince's vassal troops, he would have nothing to do.

Because now he can't even deal with the three hundred "mounted infantry" of Zhu San Taisun who occupy the Beixi Floating Bridge in Jieyang. What else can he do with these more than a thousand people?

Moreover, the boss Hui Qiu Hui came all the way west along the "Rongjiang-Beixi" waterway with the main force of up to seven or eight thousand Chaozhou pirates.

If the Beixi Bridge, which guarded the Beixi Waterway, was to be captured by the rebels, then relying on the three to four thousand men under Liu Jinzhong's command would not be able to stop the more than ten thousand troops approaching by land and water.

He can only retreat to Jieyang County and wait for help...or simply die!

Among them, standing still and waiting for reinforcements was given by Imperial Envoy Mi Sihan. Although Mi Sihan sent Liu Jinzhong four red cannons, he still did not expect Liu Jinzhong to be able to repel the invading Qiu Hui with just four cannons.

Therefore, according to the arrangement of the imperial minister, Liu Jinzhong only needs to hold on to Jieyang County when Qiu Hui's army invades, and wait for the army led by Yan Ziming, Deng Guangming, Zhang Haiyang and others to rush to rescue... In Mi Sihan's opinion,

, Qiu Hui is just a pirate, although he has a lot of skills on the water, but on the shore, where are the opponents of Yan Ziming, Deng Guangming, Liu Jinzhong, Zhang Mengji and other Qing generals?

As long as Yan, Deng, Liu, Zhang and other armies gather together and can gather more than 10,000 flag soldiers, green battalions, and militia, it will be enough to repel Qiu Hui. Even if they cannot be wiped out, as long as they can behead a thousand people, they will be able to fight back again.

By killing the Third Prince Zhu in Guiyu City, Mi Sihan would have successfully completed the mission assigned by Emperor Kangxi.

The imperial envoy even had the idea of ​​raising Zhu Hesheng, the third great-grandson, well... By raising the third great-grandson of Zhu, the little bandit, the imperial envoy could justifiably deploy troops to Chaozhou and Xushun.

The five subordinates of the Duke's government are all under his control.

As long as an elite army can be stationed here in Chaozhou, the two feudal lords, Shang and Geng, will not dare to resist the imperial government's deprivation.

This is really killing two birds with one stone!

But now Liu Jinzhong, the most capable of the four generals Yan, Deng, Liu and Zhang, was defeated by a mere 300 Chaozhou rebels and lost his troops!

Not only did Liu Jinzhong's troops suffer a disastrous defeat when they were attacked by two to three hundred cavalry, they were even at a disadvantage in the majestic formation, with more than 2,000 people against the opponent's more than 300 people.

The main reason why Liu Jinzhong's troops were beaten so painfully was because the opponent's combination of "Sky Thunder", "Sniper Cannon" and "Pony Cavalry" was so powerful!

So Liu Jinzhong already knew at this time that Mi Sihan's plan would definitely not succeed... If he foolishly retreated to Jieyang County again, he would be waiting to die.

"Godfather," Liu Jinzhong's godson Liu Erhu also knew that he was dying, "I'm afraid the weather in Guangdong is going to change!"

Liu Jinzhong looked back at Liu Erhu but said nothing.

Liu Erhu whispered: "Godfather, our more than 2,000 people can't defeat their 300 people. So what if the five or six thousand people from Yan Junmen and Deputy Dutong Deng are here? And godfather, can you count on Yan?"

Junmen and Deputy Deng are both fighting for us?

If we are trapped in Jieyang County, and Yan Junmen and Deputy Commander Deng refuse to save us or just leave in a pretentious manner... what should we do?"

What should I do? Just chill!

Liu Jinzhong knew that once he was trapped in Jieyang County, he would be completely frozen! Not only would he be cold, but even his family members in Chaozhou Prefecture would also have to be cold... because he, the commander-in-chief of Chao Town and Duke Xushun

The relationship between Shang Shuying and Deng Guangming of the government was bad and the grievances were very deep. Once there was no military protection, the property of the family members in Chaozhou Town would almost certainly be wiped out by the Xushun government!

Liu Jinzhong was silent for a while, then asked in a low voice: "What's the explanation from the imperial envoy?"

"It is said that some of Ao Bai's remnants and even Ao Bai himself have defected to Prince Zhu!" Liu Erhu said, "So we were unable to resist, so we had to lead our troops to retreat to Chaozhou City to protect the city."

Liu Jinzhong was still hesitant. Although everyone on the battlefield knew that "Obai rebelled", was it really possible to report him like this?

"Father," Liu Erhu said, "as long as Jieyang is still in the hands of Prince Zhu San, we will be able to enjoy the hot food in Chaozhou Prefecture... At least we won't have to worry about our lives now!"

That’s right, don’t worry about it now, we’ll talk about it in the future.

But if Liu Jinzhong was besieged in Jieyang and became a loyal martyr later, then even the present moment would be gone!

Thinking of this, Liu Jinzhong finally made up his mind and turned around and said to Liu Erhu: "Erhu, take a few of you to the city. You must take our brothers who are left in the city with Fengming Mountain."

"Hey!" Liu Erhu responded.

Liu Jinzhong no longer hesitated, and ignored the desperate Dongguan artillery soldiers. He just strode out of the artillery base, got on his horse, and led his soldiers away.

...

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng..."

Cheers sounded loudly on the Beixi Floating Bridge.

This is more than 200 people cheering for victory... cheering for a major victory that will surely go down in history!

The more than 2,000 Chao Town Green Camp soldiers who had been confronting them for more than an hour finally chose to retreat when the land and sea reinforcements led by Qiu Hui and Liu Guoxuan approached Beixi Bridge... not into Jieyang County, but

He simply abandoned the city and left.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In other words, in this battle known as the "Beixi Bridge Victory" by later generations, Zhu San's grandson Zhu Hesheng only attacked with 200 mounted infantry

They captured Beixi Beizhai, Beixi North Fortress, and Beixi Floating Bridge, and also defeated the Qing Army's Chao Town Green Camp and Chaozhou Prefecture Militia, which numbered more than 2,000 people at the south entrance of Beixi Floating Bridge...

And forced the Qing Chao Zhen soldiers to abandon Jieyang County!

This is really a great victory that the Ming Dynasty has never achieved since the war between the Ming and Qing Dynasties!

In addition, in this battle that lasted only a few hours, the two hundred and dozens of people commanded by Zhu Hesheng achieved the result of killing hundreds of captured Qing soldiers at a slight cost of less than twenty casualties.

, and at least 150 people were missing after falling into the water... The disparity in the exchange ratio can be compared with the situation when the "begging soldiers" of the Ming Army met the "Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers"!

Zhu Hesheng was also very happy at this time. He had found the feeling of the hero of a time-travel novel... This is the feeling!

Three hundred people who opened "Sweet Gunpowder Gold Finger" defeated thousands of Qing soldiers. This is probably a destiny, right?

It seems that it is my destiny to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty! Zhu Hesheng thought to himself: "If this thing of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty really succeeds in the future, will I be able to... become a feudal autocratic emperor?"

"

Thinking of this, Zhu Hesheng could no longer suppress his excitement, his blood was boiling!

He quickly jumped onto the long-legged horse next to him, then pulled out a "Kanto big broom knife" with an outrageously long blade, and roared: "Brothers, come after me... attack your mother,

Rush!"

"Come on!"

"Fuck your mother..."
