After the Qing army captured the county town, they kept preparing to cross the river.

There are no Ming Navy on the Fuchun River, only Ming small boats. The Qing army does not have to worry about being hit and sunk by warships. They just need to prepare some rafts to launch a forced ferry.

When the Qing army attacked Fuyang, Duoduo prepared a raft. After capturing Fuyang, he demolished all the doors, windows and beams in the city, and made them overnight to create a large number of rafts.

In the early morning of the 24th, the sun slowly rose, and the light spread on both sides of the Fuchun River. The river water was sparkling and vast.

On the north bank, on a hill, a large flag fluttered in the wind, and various flags filled the hills, making noises in the wind. The Eight Banners soldiers holding spears were covered with the hills, and the soldiers carried huge horns, full of barbarism, and looked murderous.

Duoduo stood on the top of the hill, and used a brass thousand-mile mirror to scan the other side. He saw behind the earth wall, the Ming army's wide-eaves disc helmets, red cherry blossoms, and helmet flags scattered behind the earth wall. Then he put down the thousand-mile mirror and glanced at the foot of the hill. The Qing army cannons lined up in turn, wearing various armors and pointed iron helmets on the head boarded a boat and a raft.

In the Qing army camp on the north bank, several Qing soldiers formed a stream of people gathered on the shore. The heads and silkworms moved, the spears were as dense as forests, the flags were as clouds, and the army was powerful and victorious.

Duoduo looked at the thin line of defense of the Ming army, and saw the large number of Eight Banners soldiers, and suddenly laughed.

Although Duoduo felt that there were more barbarians who were not afraid of death, he looked at the invincible Eight Banners soldiers and felt that so what if the barbarians were not afraid of death? In front of the powerful Eight Banners, they could only be wiped out.

Duoduo looked at the magnificent battlefield and couldn't help but say coldly, "After crossing Fuchun River today, I can sweep across eastern Zhejiang and take direct access to Fujian."

At this time, Tu Lai, who was looking down next to him, reported: "Prince, the Han army is chanting the white flag, they are ready."

After hearing this, Duoduo looked to the riverside. When he saw a team of Eight Banners soldiers who had boarded the raft, he narrowed his eyes and waved his hand suddenly. The huge trumpet of his body sounded, "Send Shen Zhixiang to cross the river."

On the south bank of the Fuchun River, Zhang Mingzhen and Wu Zhaosheng and others stood together, staring at the Qing army on the north bank, knowing that they were about to launch a forced transit.

"Dangdangdang~" A sudden burst of alarm bell sounded from the Ming army's front, and the bell sounded panic and rapid. It was the Ming army on the watchtower that found that the Qing army had begun to cross the river.

On the surface of the river, nearly a hundred rafts and boats loaded with Eight Banners soldiers rushed towards the south bank.

Each raft was filled with Eight Banners soldiers, and some small boats had a Flang machine cannon.

The Manchu rulers claimed to be the world by riding and shooting, but it was actually nonsense. In the early days of the Qing army, they actually attached great importance to firearms. Not only were the red and barbarian cannons made better than the Ming Dynasty, but even the quality of muskets exceeded that of the Ming army.

Kong Youde once said to Huang Taiji with pride: "There are tens of thousands of soldiers, cannons and firearms. With this weapon, we work together with the Khan and advance together on the ground and water, and it is unstoppable. Who in the world dares to be enemies with Khan?"

After Kong Youde joined the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army developed rapidly. By the time of the Songjin Battle in 1642, the number of Qing army artillery had come from above, surpassing the Ming army. After Hong Chengchou was defeated and Zu Dashou and others also surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army obtained hundreds of artillery large and large guns and nearly 10,000 convex guns, which made the Ming Dynasty no longer have the ability to use firearms.

In addition to having a large number of firearms, the Qing army had its first regime and strict laws, and the manufacturing of firearms exceeded that of the decadent Ming Dynasty. The firearms they built were of better quality and the quality of the Ming dynasties.

Li Yutian, the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, said at that time: "The chief attacked with 100 cannons and attacked, even if the iron walls were hard to protect. According to material resources, the chief casted 100 cannons but had more than enough. I cast ten cannons but was powerless. In the past, the slave power was not a major county in China. Every time he was in the battle, he was evenly invincible. So far, he casted cannons and made medicine ten times more powerful than my magic weapon."

At the beginning of the Qing army's entry into the pass, the army equipped a large number of firearms. However, with the unification of the world, the Qing rulers achieved their goal, and did not want the Han people to think that the Manchus had won the world by the Han people's firearms, so they began to advocate riding and shooting.

However, after the Qing army entered the pass, every time they launched a siege, the first reaction of the Qing generals was often to call on the "Western God Cannon".

In the decisive battle of Tongguan in 1644, the Qing army did not rush to attack, but waited for the arrival of artillery.

"On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the red-clothed artillery army arrived." The Qing army conquered Tongguan in one fell swoop, forcing the Dashun army to withdraw from the northwest and eventually defeated.

After that, during the Qing army's arrival in Jiangnan, when they encountered tenacious resistance from the anti-Qing army and civilians in Yangzhou, Jiangyin and other places, they also used cannons to collapse the city wall and then conquered the city.

At this time, Qing army ships and rafts were undulating on the river surface. The artillery on the boat, as soon as it crossed the middle of the river, began to fire artillery bombardment on the south bank, and the Qing army artillery array on the north bank also began to roar.

Zhang Mingzhen and Wu Zhaosheng stood behind a dirt wall built by the Ming army on the beach. The wall was full of soldiers. Qing army artillery smashed on the dirt wall, and the soil splashed.

At this time, on the earthen wall, the Ming army artillery began to fight back. With the sound of the rumbling cannons, iron bullets hit the river surface, splashing water more than one meter high. The river water was splashed into the sky and fell down again, instantly wetting the Qing army on the ship.

For a moment, on both sides of the Fuchun River, smoke filled the gunfires, iron bullets flew around, Ming army shells hit the Qing army's boat, and the broken wood splashed, and the Qing army fell on the boat, and the body fell into the river, and the river water dyed red.

After all, there were not many artillery artillery in the Ming army and could not stop Qing army ships and rafts from docking. Soon the Qing army's boats rushed to the beach.

The Eight Banners General Shen Zhixiang immediately raised his sword, picked up his shield, and roared: "Brothers, kill the barbarians and destroy them!"

More than a thousand Qing army vanguards jumped into the water from the boat, waded in the waist-length river water, and held shields to trek to the shore.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingzhen looked solemn and knew that if the Qing army was allowed to occupy the beach, the Qing army would continue to cross the river, and the river defense would be over.

Zhang Mingzhen hurriedly waved his hand and ordered, "Mirdman, let it go!"

More than a thousand musketeers on the earthen wall raised their muskets and fired together. With the sound of "bang bang bang" guns, they defeated the Qing army that rushed to the front.

The Qing army kept falling into the water, and the bodies floated on the shore, and the turbid river water showed a pool of bright red.

The subsequent Qing army withstood the shield and rushed to the shore. The musketeers immediately formed a formation to shoot, while the sword and shield soldiers rushed towards the earth wall.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingzhen immediately said anxiously: "General Wu, I commanded the archers, gunners, and artillery to suppress the Qing army from landing. You lead our troops to attack and drive the Qing army that was landing into the river."

Wu Zhaosheng only felt that no one was more unlucky than him. He was robbed of food and grass by the rebels in Suzhou and lost Nikan. Anyway, Guiming was defeated immediately and needed to fight against the fierce Eight Banners.

If he could, he wouldn't have been killed a few days ago. He would have no choice but to kill him now. He would definitely die miserably when he fell into the hands of the Qing army. He could only draw his sword and roar loudly, "Brothers, let me kill!"

Nearly three thousand soldiers jumped over the earth wall and rushed out, colliding with the Eight Banners soldiers who had just landed. The two sides fought together in an instant, fighting with swords and guns, and flesh and blood flew.

Wu Zhaosheng waved his sword to kill the Qing soldiers in front of him, blocking the Qing army from rushing towards the earth wall. Zhang Mingzhen commanded bows and arrows and bird guns, and took the opportunity to shoot and kill the Qing army crowded on the beach, blocking the Qing army's offensive for a while.

However, before the Ming army could breathe a sigh of relief, a row of rafts rushed to the shore and jumped down from above a group of fiercely powerful Manchu heavy infantry soldiers. The Qing army on the shore consciously made a way for them, and the Manchu heavy steps formed a formation and slashed at the blocking Ming soldiers.

Zhang Mingzhen knew that in addition to cavalry and shooting, the Eight Banners soldiers were actually the best tactic of the Manchus to conduct heavy-handed and in-surgent battles. He quickly ordered bows and arrows to shoot, and the arrows were inserted into the Manchus soldiers, but the Manchus soldiers continued to advance like nothing happened.

"Eat again!" Zhang Mingzhen shouted urgently.

"Bang bang bang" the musketeer shot, and the projectile made the Manchu soldiers take a step back, but then they took another step forward.

Wu Zhaosheng's troops who blocked the Qing army on the river beach saw that the Manchu soldiers could not be killed, and their bodies were filled with arrows, and they still advanced forward. They suddenly fell into great horror.

"Kill!" Wu Zhaosheng saw this and ordered the Ming soldiers to charge.

The Ming soldiers roared, venting their fear, and thrust their spears one after another, but failed to stab the Manchu soldiers to death. The Manchu soldiers waved their swords to cut off the spear, swept the swords and chopped the Ming soldiers to the ground.

In an instant, the Ming army became terrified and the front began to loosen. Wu Zhaosheng thought to himself: "It's over!"

On the top of the hill on the north bank, Duoduo collected the thousand-mile mirror. There was no suspense. The Qing army was about to break through the river defense. He waved his hand and said, "Tell the army, prepare the whole army to cross the river!"

After saying that, Duoduo was about to leave the mountain, but at this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the south bank, and a ball of white light burst out, and it exploded several Manchus directly.

Duoduo's expression changed. After standing still, he picked up the thousand-mile mirror and watched. He saw a low horn sound suddenly coming from behind the Ming army's defense line. The Ming army of the brigade appeared all over the mountains and fields. Countless flags were waving in the forest. Fang Guoan's Ministry of Justice made a quick move and rushed to the south bank of the Fuchun River at the most critical moment.

Duoduo saw the first person riding a horse and jumping over the earth wall. From time to time, something was thrown out from his hand. A ball of white light burst out, blowing away the Qing army. Duoduo's face suddenly turned ferocious, almost vomiting blood, and roared with glaring eyes: "Why is it him again!"
