The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and it was really hard for the whole family to know each other.

Fortunately, there was no filth, otherwise it would be a pity to be injured in the hands of these rebels.

When Sun Jiaji was in the palace change in Chun'an Town, he was disheartened about the government and decided to return home.

After returning to his hometown Yuyao, I found that the Sun family had already been destroyed.

After asking the villagers, Sun Jiaji learned that after he and Xiong Rulin raised the flag to fight against the Qing Dynasty and pulled a team to leave Yuyao, the Qing army soon occupied Yuyao.

A gentry joined the Qing Dynasty and made his debut.

So the entire Sun family was killed by the Qing army, including Sun Jiaji's widowed mother, first wife, son and daughter.

Sun Jiaji rekindled the fire of revenge in his heart and began to convene the village party in Yuyao again to organize a group of people to revenge the Qing army that had moved to Ningbo.

Sun Jiaji was a famous family. His grandfather was Sun Ruyou, a Grand Secretary of Dongge during the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty. He was also a Jinshi in the tenth year of Chongzhen, so he had a call for mechanics. In addition, Shaoxing Prefecture had been restored and Yuyao had no Qing army.

Soon, Sun Jiaji assembled a team of thousands of people.

Don't want to, the change will regenerate at this time.

Originally, after Wu Zheng restored Shaoxing Prefecture, he adopted Fang Guoan's suggestion, with Wang Deren as the main general, Jin Shenghuan as the deputy general, and troops were sent to Ningbo Prefecture, with Li Ruhai as the main general, and Chi Erhan as the deputy general, attacking Jinhua Prefecture.

At this time, it was when the Qing army of Shaoxing Prefecture was almost wiped out. Two armies successfully occupied the two prefectures, and even the defenders of Jinhua escaped after hearing the news.

But I didn't expect that when the Qing army in Jinhua Prefecture saw that the Ming army was in great power, they took the initiative to withdraw from Jinhua Prefecture, entered Taizhou to the east, and joined the Qing army in Taizhou, and remnants of the Qing army that retreated from Ningbo Prefecture, and then launched a counterattack against Ningbo Prefecture.

Wang Deren and Jin Shenghuan had a dispute at this time. Wang Deren wanted to defend, but Jin Shenghuan insisted on withdrawing his troops. He believed that the Qing army was twice as powerful as he did and did not want his subordinates to lose their troops in Ningbo Prefecture.

As a result, the two had a fierce quarrel, and in the end, Jin Shenghuan led his troops to retreat alone.

Wang Deren's army was unable to support it. After two days of defense, he had to retreat due to excessive losses.

Ningbo Prefecture fell again less than ten days after being recovered by the Ming army, and the first one was Yuyao, which was adjacent to Shangyu.

Sun Jiaji brazenly led this team that had just been convened to face the Qing army vanguard in Yuyao, and most of the losses were lost in one battle.

After learning from the pain, Sun Jiaji understood that he could only return to the Qingtai Dynasty if he wanted to take revenge.

But many of his subordinates could not bear to abandon them, so more than a hundred people took a boat to cross the sea. Because the Qingtai Dynasty was fighting with the Qing army on the Yangtze River at this time, Sun Jiaji led his men to land from Songjiang Prefecture, then passed Taihu Lake to Yixing and Liyang, and then turned around and headed north until they met Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng was shocked after hearing this. Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren abandoned Ningbo Prefecture one after another. According to Sun Jiaji, this matter was already five days ago, but why did the two not report to Hangzhou Prefecture, and even Chen Sheng of Shaoxing Prefecture did not report it.

No matter what, even Sun Jiaji had met him, and the messenger who set out from Shaoxing should have arrived earlier than Sun Jiaji.

Wu Zheng asked Sun Jiaji: "How many Qing troops attacked Ningbo Prefecture?"

"No less than 20,000 people."

No, Wu Zheng felt something was wrong. The main force of the Qing army in Shaoxing Prefecture had been completely wiped out by himself. Where did so many Qing army come from in eastern Zhejiang?

Even Taizhou, Jinhua, Ningbo and Chuzhou Prefecture, the troops in the four governments will not exceed ten thousand people.

Moreover, the Qing army in Ningbo Prefecture was defeated by Li Ruhai's troops instead of retreating first.

According to the forces deployed by the Qing army in eastern Zhejiang at that time, even the entire battle could not be collected.

Wu Zheng felt something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.

Danyang is so close that Wu Zheng has no time to think about the abnormal situation in Ningbo Prefecture.

....

The reason why Wu Zheng chose to break through to Danyang was because there were foreign musketeers in Danyang, as well as the musketeers who survived the battle of Dantu that day.

At that time, Wu Zheng was heartbroken by the casualties of the new musketeers, and insisted on transferring more than a thousand musketeers to the rear of Danyang to repair them after the Battle of Dantu, and at the same time, letting foreign soldiers train them.

This unintentional deployment at that time today solved Wu Zheng's temporary danger.

Looking at the Danyang City Wall that was already visible in outline, Wu Zhengxu let out a sigh of relief.

This matter is too strange. It is already a certain fact that there are spies in the court. This is not surprising, as Wu Zheng expected.

Yingtian Prefecture was ruled by the Qing court for more than two years, and it would be strange if there were no spies.

But it is surprising that spies appear at the top of the court.

You know, the court officials who hold great power in the Qingtai Dynasty have traveled thousands of miles from Shaoxing Prefecture.

This is also the reason why Wu Zheng never doubted that they would be bought by the Qing court.

Even though they had different political views and had rifts, Wu Zheng did not look at their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty.

Wu Zheng was already reflecting in his mind at this time that this layout was likely to fail. He used the Dantu to attract the main force of the Qing army, landed in Jiangbei with the navy, and launched a second assault on Yi Zhen. This was originally a wonderful game.

Dantu has a lot of troops, combining with the more than 2,000 people left by Wu Zheng, plus the three or four thousand remaining troops of Xia Wanchun, and more than a dozen cannons. It should not be difficult to defend against the strong attack of 10,000 Qing troops.

Once the Qing army's attack was set, the Qing army in Jiangbei would definitely reinforce.

Because it is easy to attack across the river, but it is difficult to retreat across the river. Once you retreat, you will be bitten by the defenders. At that time, you are afraid that seven or eight out of the ten Qing troops would have to float on the river to feed fish and shrimp.

Even if Wu Sangui saw through this move and made up his mind to cut off his arms and seek survival, I am afraid that Hong Chengchou would not agree.

Let’s take a step back, if the Qing army in Jiangbei is really cruel and unreinforced, it will be a strategic victory. In this way, the Ming army will not face the threat of the Qing army in Jiangxin Island. In other words, the Qing court lost the best springboard for going south and could truly realize the situation of confrontation between the two armies across the river.

Another important point is that when the victory of this battle was won, thousands of Tartars were captured and exchanged with Hong Chengchou for the remnants of the Yi Zhenming Army. This is not a problem.

Wu Zheng's abacus was very loud, but in fact, as the saying goes, planning is up to man and accomplishing things is up to heaven.

Wu Zheng did not consider three points. First, there were important officials in the court who were spies from the Qing court. Not only did they reveal the bottom line of the Qingtai Dynasty's negotiations, they also encircled themselves in a trap and were almost captured by the Qing cavalry. But this was not the most important. What was important was the second point. Wu Zheng did not expect that the Qing army in Jiangbei would make a desperate bet and launched a full-strength attack on Zhenjiang and Dantu. In other words, the enemy was attracted, but what was attracted was the enemy. This was not something that the Dantu defenders could bear, not to mention that the Zhenjiang defenders had drawn thousands of people by Chen Zilong. At this point, Wu Zheng was a decision-making and judgment error.

The third point is also the one that Wu Zheng was most worried and regretful, that is, the ten thousand soldiers of the navy assault ritual of King Xingguo Zhiren.
