Chapter 1900 Why are they fighting each other?
PS: Thanks to book friend "Zhong Guoren" and "Fei Yu" for his monthly votes.
These soldiers who had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty faced compatriots of the same ancestral clan and the white-haired old men, probably at this time, the pride in their hearts would make these soldiers who had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty willingly die.
People always realize the value of dignity after they are lost.
At the moment when they surrendered to Qing Dynasty, they were in chaos, and they didn't even know what they had done or what they were doing.
Just drifting with the flow.
After finding out, I can't change the status quo.
This is the most saddest thing.
Countless days and nights, the torture in my heart, the inhuman torture.
This is the early Qing Dynasty in history. Countless Ming troops surrendered first and then rebelled, and fought against the Qing Dynasty for decades, until these people died, so... no one turned against the Qing Dynasty.
Now, Wu Zheng and his Northern Expedition Army provided them with this opportunity.
....
The north gate of Fengyang City.
It has entered a bloody battle.
For nothing else, both sides are for survival.
Zuo Menggeng can no longer command this army.
When the vanguard of Titicacum defeated division arrived at Fengyang City, Zuo Menggeng had already lost command.
That's right, no matter how big a Han official is, how can you be so bad?
Especially the defeated elephant has been revealed, and tens of thousands of troops will be surrounded by north and south. At this time, all the officials surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, such as Zuo Menggeng, were unreliable in the eyes of the Manchus.
Their eyes looked at Zuo Menggeng, and they looked gloomy. If they didn't slash on the spot, they would just leave some face to the little emperor of Shuntian Mansion.
When Zuo Menggeng heard the news of the defeat of Titicacamu troops, he originally ordered the army to advance.
It was precisely because of this order that he was thrown aside and looked after him, and called him "care to rest."
Titicacum thus became the commander of this flag army without any appointment.
Because Titicaca itself is Meile Ezhen, the inlaid yellow flag, and it is also named General Jingnan.
The most important thing is that Titicacum is a Manchu, and his proposal is in line with the wishes of the Manchu generals.
Titicamu said that the north of the river had fallen and could not go back.
In the east, the Northern Expedition Army of Yangzhou Prefecture was eyeing him, worried about the lack of reinforcements.
To the west, God knows whether the three-name slaves of Wu Sangui were worried that they had nowhere to kill the head of the man and made a letter of surrender after they were surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
You should know that whenever a surrendered general kills his own people, he is more fierce than his opponent.
Titicacum's proposal was to quickly break the city before the enemy arrived, and then defend tens of thousands of troops to wait for assistance, and replenish local supplies in Fengyang City... Tsk tsk, the Tartars have been cursed by the Qing court over the years, but they are very dissatisfied. Yes, if the robbers are not robbed, will they still be called robbers?
Now Titicacum’s proposal has excited everyone.
It was strange. The morale of the fire on his back suddenly rose.
I have to say that Titicacum does have a trick, which not only takes over power, but also incites and encourages morale.
....
Everyone is happy and the other is sad.
The enemy outside the city suddenly screamed like chicken blood.
Shen Zhiyuan and Jiang Quanyi, who were commanding on the city tower, were suffering!
When two lances were called out, the troops in the city would appear empty.
The guard team formed by Jiang Quanyi regardless of his life and death has all died.
The remaining spear cavalry had been ordered by Shen Zhiyuan to abandon the horse and put it on the city wall, take over the original responsibilities of the guard battalion, and act as a meat shield for the continuous gun group.
The more you fight, the fewer and fewer troops. If the continuous gun power is not terrifying, and hitting it below can often make a huge hole in the enemy soldiers, then Fengyang City should have been captured by the Qing army yesterday.
It’s not that Jiang Quanyi was scared by Chen Zhiyuan. According to the situation at that time, he did hold on for one more day at most, but Jiang Quanyi didn’t expect that the delicate and gentle Mr. Shen, who was not inferior to him when he started to act fiercely, even let the spear abandon his horse and put it on the city wall... Tsk tsk, it’s so luxurious!
But now, even with the help of gods, I am afraid I can't hold on anymore.
Jiang Quanyi couldn't help but complain: "...I just said, this plan won't work... The spear attacks too far, and if there is any accident, you can't personally grasp the situation on the battlefield and command it... Now, you and I have to explain it here..."
Chen Zhiyuan rolled his eyes and retorted: "Why, I know I'm afraid at this time...why have you been doing this? I'm not saying that I just took over the Ruishi Camp and wanted to make a great achievement... I haven't cared about being bewitched by you yet, and you blame me instead?"
Jiang Quanyi said angrily: "I mean I want to make a great contribution... I didn't say I'd send the spear cavalry in the city out of the city!"
"Look... Look, this is really called counterattack!" Chen Zhiyuan said, "Your Ruishi Battalion went to the city wall in the morning. Although the firepower of guns was huge, after the battle, the enemy understood... how to make a great achievement? I was thinking for you, so I said that the cavalry was transferred out of the city... I really wanted to encircle and annihilate the six or seventy thousand troops of Boluo as I imagined, that would be called a great achievement!"
Jiang Quanyi stomped his feet and said, "...I'm still thinking about encircling and annihilation... It's you and I who were surrounded and annihilated by the enemy? If two guns were in the city, at least I would have the best of my own protection now...!"
"That's my spear...!"
"Prince!"
"That's my command!"
"What the prince said...you have to listen to me!"
At this critical moment, the two of them got into trouble.
He stared at him with big eyes, and he lost his usual humility.
After a while, Chen Zhiyuan sneered: "It is said that there is a crazy man from Jiang in the Northern Expedition Army. He won't be dead when he fights... He saw that it was true, but he was so... he was afraid of death when he was about to die!"
"You fart... Jiang has fought with the enemy all the way from Yizhen, and after several life and death, how could he be afraid of death?"
"I saved that too!"
"Uh..." Jiang Quanyi was killed with a slander and said unwillingly, "It was General Qian who saved it!"
Chen Zhiyuan sneered: "That kid was only a hundred households at that time, with hundreds of people in his hands... He went to the military academy to ask for help from me, so he saved you... Xiao Jiang, you have to be grateful for your life... As the saying goes, beasts can still repay their kindness!"
Jiang Quanyi was furious when he heard this, "Dare you scold me for being a beast?"
Chen Zhiyuan squinted his eyes: "So what if you scold you?"
"You... Jiang disdained to be with you!" Jiang Quanyi said angrily, "Since the war started, Fengyang City has been guarding my Ruishi Camp... Your spear is useless at all... In this way, you get out of here, so you can avoid annoying!"
Chen Zhiyuan stared at Jiang Quanyi strangely and suddenly burst into laughter, "It's true... do you know how to provoke the general?"
Jiang Quanyi was stunned and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's always good to die less... it's always good!"
Chen Zhiyuan took a long breath, "This plan was decided late, it has nothing to do with you...you go!"
"No... If the prince knew that I abandoned you and ran away... it would be better to die in Fengyang City to make a good reputation."
"You... your Ruishi camp is Wu Zheng's heart. If the entire army is wiped out... how would you explain it to him?"
