Chapter 48 Reinforcements are coming! Ask for a monthly ticket)
Dahao Island, Haojiang Pier.
The gongs and drums were loud and the sea breeze was howling. Amid the gongs and drums and the sea breeze, the neat Yanping royal family troops were lined up to walk down from several big bird boats. Near the dock, there were also large groups of Chaozhou rebels wearing ordinary people's clothes and wrapped in red cloth on their heads, smiling and stretching their necks to look around, and cheering loudly from time to time.
The vassal army of the Yanping Palace actually came to support it... This was really beyond the expectations of the Chaozhou rebels, and it greatly inspired the morale of the mobs of Qiu Hui, Zhu Hesheng's families.
Yes, what Qiu Hui and Zhu Hesheng are now organizing are a bunch of mobs!
Their families have very few regular soldiers. Qiu Hui had about 3,000 people, of which 2,000 had already gone to the front line to confront the Qing army. Zhu Jushan, Zhu Hesheng and his son had more than 200 heroes, but now half of them were trapped in Guiyu Capital. Zhu Hesheng tried his best and pulled out 188 people from Danan Mountain, and they were not elites. At most, they were "refugees". After a period of training, the boss Hui supported a batch of military funds, and finally became more decent.
But with less than 1,200 people and the two thousand people who have been dispatched, it cannot deal with more than 1,000 Qing soldiers, so Qiu Hui and Zhu Hesheng had to ask for people and guns from their subordinates (actually the village).
Zhu Hesheng needed more, and gritted his teeth and raised less than 600 people.
The mobilization force of the boss Hui was not that strong - he was trapped and was not his father, so he pulled out more than 5,000 people, plus a thousand veterans, and gathered 5,6,700 people. In addition, Zhu Hesheng had less than 600 people, and in addition, two thousand people who had already been on the front line, there were less than 8,300 people in total.
This is all the capital in Qiu Hui and Zhu Hesheng’s hands!
According to the data given to Zhu Hesheng by Yang Qilong, even if it is not counted as the thousands of "soy sauce soldiers" under Shang Zhixin, the number of them is 12,000 to 10,000! Moreover, they are all professional households who cut down people, which is not the same as Qiu Hui and Zhu Hesheng's large number of "temporary soldiers".
Although there is a killer weapon like Sweet Gunpowder, most of the people under Qiu Hui and Zhu Hesheng were unsure... until reinforcements from the Yanping Palace appeared on the Haojiang Wharf.
At this time, the vassal army in Yanping's palace was the highest level of combat effectiveness in the anti-Qing and restoring camp!
At least people outside the Chaozhou world still seem to be very powerful!
So after learning that the reinforcements from the Yanping Palace arrived, the boss Hui and Zhu Hesheng stopped training, and immediately led the mobs under his command to greet the Haojiang Wharf.
Looking at the Yanping Prince's vassal soldiers wearing uniforms, carrying large bags of armor and weapons, they all felt that this battle was already very likely to win.
Qiu Hui and Zhu Hesheng were each leading a group of subordinates, standing on the widest pier on the bank of Haojiang River, smiling as Chen Yonghua led a black man and an oriental man in colorful foreign clothes, and a foreign devil in Confucian uniform and square scarf to get off an old gate with a very high side of the ship.
Zhu Hesheng looked quite strange, so he asked Qiu Hui: "Father-in-law, who are the man from the Celestial Dynasty in foreign dress and the foreign devil in Confucian clothes? Why did they get off the boat with Military Secretary Chen?"
Qiu Hui frowned and said, "Son-in-law, these two are not fuel-efficient lamps... One of them is the senior class of the British East India Company in Anping Royal City. The surname is tea, the tea with the big teapot is called Chaligao. The other is a Han Chinese on Luzon Island, and he gave a foreign name, named Nikola Sibao, and he is the second class of the British East India Company in Anping Dynasty."
It's actually the representative of imperialism!
Zhu Hesheng immediately became alert! He was quite disgusted with imperialism... Well, the business he did in his previous life was an anti-imperialist element.
In his high-quality imitation business, he needs to imitate the perfume and famous wines of imperialists! This is destroying the economic foundation of imperialism and digging for the corners of imperialism!
Moreover, his high-quality imitation perfume and famous wines have a high level of craftsmanship, which is enough to be real. Not only does it sell well in China, but it is also sold overseas... He is definitely an anti-imperialist expert!
And his anti-imperialist career in this life was even more exciting... It was not a high-quality imitation of imperialist perfume or famous wine, but a plan to directly turn imperialist perfume and famous wine into Chaozhou local specialties.
He dug up the roots of imperialism!
So Zhu Hesheng naturally put himself in the opposite direction of these two British imperialists.
However, it is not the time to fight against imperialism. The main task now is to fight against feudalism - the feudalism of Emperor Kangxi!
When Zhu Hesheng thought of this, Chen Yonghua, Liu Guoxuan, Gao and Nicholas Bao had already arrived.
After the two waves met, they did not distinguish between superiors and inferiors. They met with each other with courtesy and greeted each other. Chen Yonghua also started to serve as an introduction person, introducing Liu Guoxuan, Charlie Goff and Ji Dabao to Zhu Hesheng one by one.
Zhu Hesheng has heard of Liu Guoxuan's name and also knows that this is the number one thug of the Zheng family army today!
This Zheng Jing actually sent him out!
Zhu Hesheng was even more suspicious of his true identity in his heart - Zheng Jing was the three "giants" Chen Yonghua, Liu Guoxuan, and Feng Xifan! Now both of them are coming to Chaozhou, and there are quite a lot of reinforcements sent.
What does this mean? Does this mean that he and Chen Yonghua really know what secrets they know?
At this time, Qiu Hui was already inquiring about the number of reinforcements.
"Military advisor, Guan Zhen, how many people have you brought here this time?"
Chen Yonghua smiled and said, "This time we came to Zuowuwei Town and Yongwei Town, with more than 1,800 soldiers!"
The Ming Zheng army's town should have more than 2,000 people when it is full, but Zheng Jing, who retreated to Taiwan, couldn't get all the staff, so he could only make the names of each town disagree. There was a sign of a town, but the real number was only one battalion.
However, Zuowuwei Town and Yongwei Town of the Zheng army of the Ming Dynasty were both amazing elites.
Among them, Guan Town of Zuowuwei Town is Liu Guoxuan, while Guan Town of Yongwei Town is Chen Yonghua himself!
"Okay, okay!" Qiu Hui pointed his head, "Military advisor, I and Pao Zhu have gathered more than 8,000 people. Add your 1,000 to the number of people, and the number of people is over 1,000!"
Zhu Hesheng added from the side: "Now the Ming army is not satisfied with ten thousand, and it is invincible!"
This is really a big tone!
Liu Guoxuan glared at him and asked with a smile: "Third Grandson, if you say that, you must have a clever plan to defeat the enemy?"
Zhu Hesheng nodded and smiled: "I will not hide it from Liu Guanzhen, the officials plan to attack Beixi Bridge! As long as you take down Beixi Bridge, Jieyang County will be in control!"
Liu Guoxuan frowned, "How come Qinggou doesn't know that the Beixi Bridge is important, and it may be difficult to succeed in the surprise attack?"
Zhu Hesheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Liu Guanzhen, the subordinates have already prepared themselves. They have selected 300 elite soldiers. They will definitely succeed with a surprise attack with makeup!"
Liu Guoxuan wanted to ask again, but Chen Yonghua spoke first and nodded and said, "Okay! Liu Guanzhen and Mr. Qiu are waiting for your good news! To be honest, I brought twelve pounds of red barbarian cannons produced by the British country this time! As long as you can capture the Beixi Bridge... Jieyang County, Liu Guanzhen and I will help you fight together!
In addition, I have brought you and the boss Hui five hundred turtle dove-footed muskets, all of which are good domestic guns from Britain, and you can divide them into a batch!"
The twelve-pound red cannon he mentioned was an "old cannon" bought from Charlie Goff at a high price. It is indeed British goods, with just the right quality, all of which are in their 80s and have fought the Spanish Invincible Fleet!
Chen Yonghua brought 500 muskets to Zhu Hesheng and Qiu Hui, not made in the UK, but produced by the Grand Duchy of Milan. The quality is equally excellent. They are all heavy Spanish muskets that have fought the 30 years of war!
