The west wall of Changsha City.
Yuanbao, Bai Siwen, Wenxiang, and Ronglu were walking north along the ancient and majestic city wall of Changsha. Yuanbao, Bai Siwen, and Ronglu looked a little nervous, but they were low-key. He kept his head and hurried on, silent all the way. Wen Xiang turned around from time to time and said some words of encouragement.
"Follow me...just wait until you get to Yingchun Gate! A battalion of the Xianghu regiment has been stationed at Tiefo Temple outside Yingchun Gate, and they have also stocked up a lot of cigarettes! If you suffer from the pain of cigarettes, just bear with it, and you will be ready when you get to Tiefo Temple We have everything!" "Don't lose the weapon! We might encounter Changmao and the Tiandihui on the way, this weapon is our life!"
"We can't lose the flag. We are the powerful demon-fuming camp of the Beijing Banner. This flag is our face. We Eight Banners disciples will fight for face even to death!"
"Brothers from Green Camp, please support the brothers from the Eight Banners. We are all one family. When you get to Tiefo Temple, I will give you two taels of silver per person!"
Not to mention, this Bannerman Jinshi, who was admitted to Beijing from outside the customs, really has a spirit that the Beijing Banner disciples don't have. He was defeated like a mountain, and he was still using words and tricks, trying to lead as many troops as possible. Leave Changsha City.
Another highly motivated disciple of the Eight Banners outside the Pass in the Demon-Conquering Camp is Duolonga. Strictly speaking, he is not a Manchu, but a Daur. Like the Saurons, they all belong to the ranks of those outside the Pass who pay blood tax for the Manchus. "Savage". He grew up in a bitter cold land since he was a child. He not only developed good muscles and bones, but also developed an indomitable will.
Although the battle was defeated now, like Wen Xiang, he was still working hard to deal with the defeated army.
When he retreated from Huangdao Street before, he led a group of Gansu and Shaanxi green battalions to the rear and withstood several rounds of fierce attacks by the Taiping Army. He was injured in eight places and his clothes were stained with blood. In the end, he took less than thirty soldiers with him. The green battalion soldiers ran to Yibumen before catching up with the main force led by Yuanbao, Wenxiang and others.
After counting the number of people under Yibumen, Yuanbao and Wenxiang discovered that there were actually three to four hundred Eight Banners soldiers and five to six hundred Green Battalion troops under their command. The troops of 2,500 people were gone by more than 1,500. There are barely a thousand left, and there are "red flags flying" everywhere in Changsha... I don't know if they are the red flags of the Taiping Army or the red flags of the Tiandihui?
After all, it’s not the territory of the Qing Dynasty anymore!
After discovering that there were "red flags" everywhere in Changsha City, Yuanbao, Wenxiang and others did not dare to go inside the city, but there was no way to go outside the city. Outside the city was the Xiangjiang River! If you walked outside the city, you would have to jump into the river if you were not careful. I don’t dare!
So together they could just go up and down the city wall.
So Yuanbao and Bai Siwen were responsible for leading the team, Wen Xiang was responsible for encouraging people, Duolonga continued to rear, and more than a thousand people from the Eight Banners and Green Camp came to the Chao Zongmen in a sparse manner.
When he was about to arrive at Chaozongmen City Gate, Wen Xiang, who had been encouraging himself along the way, suddenly changed his tone and shouted loudly: "Stop, stop, don't go..." "Wen Bochuan, what do you say? What?"
"Bochuan, you can't stop!"
Yuanbao and Bai Siwen were walking on their way with their heads down, thinking about how many "butt wipes" they would have to send to the superiors to wipe out this big defeat. Suddenly they heard Wen Xiang said he couldn't leave, and they were both shocked. I thought Wen Xiang couldn't bear to think about it and wanted to take these thousands of defeated soldiers to fight against the Taiping Army!
"Go to Chaozongmen Street and take a look for yourselves, then prick up your ears and listen..."
Yuan Bao and Bai Siwen hurriedly looked up and saw that there were flames on the street inside Chaozongmen. When they listened carefully, they heard the Taiping Army's "hymn" "Men Should Be Strong" echoing in the air. It was over now, Chaozong The door is about to be finished!
"Quickly, return to the Yibumen!" Motoho suggested quickly.
"It's too late! There's a fight over at the Yibu Gate too!" Wen Xiang turned around and raised his hand to point at the Yibu Gate. Yuanbao and Bai Siwen turned around to look, feeling dizzy for a moment.
They were fine when they left Yibumen just now, but now someone is at war with the Taiping Army, and the fighting is going on.
It's really over this time, we can't advance or retreat, and we have people blocked on the city wall. It's better to walk along the Xiangjiang River. Jumping into the river is a narrow escape, but jumping down from the city wall is a tenth chance of death!
When these two people were feeling desperate, Wen Xiang, who was always positive and good at the Eight Banners outside the Pass, suddenly started to encourage him again: "Be diligent and gentle, the victory or defeat of our Guanchao Sect is still undecided, so it is better to make a big show of it. If you use your momentum to intimidate the bandits, you may be able to find a way out!"
Yuan Bao and Bai Siwen had already given up their opinions. After hearing what Wen Xiang said, they had no choice but to nod in agreement. "Bo Chuan, we all listen to you."
"Okay, just do whatever you want!" EBa8
Chao Zongmen.
The battle lines on Chaozongmen Street are moving towards Chaozongmen City Gate bit by bit.
Although inspired by the "Angel's Resurrection", the morale of the Taiping Army was greatly boosted, and the Xiangyong were defeated step by step. However, Chao Zongmen was a long street, and the army could not move away at all. The two sides could only fight in columns. The front is very narrow and the depth is very large, so it is impossible for the Taiping Army to penetrate the Hunan Army's front.
In addition, the fire in the rice market inside Chaozongmen is getting bigger and bigger, and has spread from the rice market. The fire originally burned on the north side of Chaozong Street, but now many houses on the south side of Chaozong Street are also on fire. If it doesn't continue Organize efforts to control the fire. This fire might burn the entire Changsha!
At this time, Luo Yaoguo had no intention of singing "Men Should Be Strong". Instead, he stood on Chaozongmen Street holding a red flag, with a white cloth wrapped around his right ear, and dark red blood stains could still be seen faintly on his right cheek. He looked at Seeing the growing fire in front of him and the battle situation that was about to be won, his face became even more ugly.
Luo Yaoguo has been very proud since he traveled through space. Because he traveled through the world under the gaze of thousands of people, and he had several "magical weapons" in his hand. Under the special national conditions of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, of course he was like a fish in water. When he later broke through the world, he was very proud of himself. Prefecture, entering Guiyang, and occupying Chenzhou, all along the way, they were killing chickens with a sledgehammer, and they were unstoppable, and they never encountered any opponents worth mentioning.
After marching north to the territory of Changsha Prefecture, although they encountered some troubles, they also encountered a "defeat" - this guy is definitely an enemy more valuable than his comrades! Sure enough, Luo Yaoguo gave Luo Yaoguo a big victory in vain in Changsha.
.
Unexpectedly, just when Luo Yaoguo was most proud, he received a blow in the head from Zuo Zongtang and was almost killed by one of his snipers! Although he was lucky enough to escape, his "physical body" was damaged.
, a small piece of my ear was knocked off, and now it hurts like hell!
This is still a trivial matter. I wonder if the people below will suspect that this "angel" has "lost his magic power"? In addition, Zuo Zongtang burned the Chao Zongmen rice market, and then used the burning of the rice market as bait to ambush
A handful of Taiping troops! He fought really beautifully in this battle!
Although he failed to defeat the eight or nine hundred people under Luo Yaoguo's command, he was at a disadvantage, but it also made Luo Yaoguo very uncomfortable. He did not want to get a Changsha city with neither food nor houses, and only two to three hundred thousand refugees...
.I am afraid that even a local snake like Mr. Zhu Jiu would not be willing to take over such a Changsha.
But he was unwilling to give up the chance of slapping the Hunan Army to death and catching Zuo Zongtang.
Zuo Zongtang is not yet a dog official of the Qing Dynasty. He is just an unregistered temporary worker. He works for Luo Bingzhang, the "temporary governor". He is a temporary worker hired by temporary workers. He is not qualified to die for the Qing Dynasty.
So if he is caught, he will definitely surrender! But now it seems that Zuo Zongtang is not easy to catch!
"Your Highness the Angel! Another group of clear demons came along the city wall. There seemed to be more than a thousand people!" Su Sanniang's voice suddenly rang in Luo Yaoguo's ears, "The fire on Chaozong Street was getting bigger and bigger.
There's no way to fight, no
If you withdraw your troops for the time being, let's put out the fire with the Tiandihui brothers in Changsha City. At least we can control the fire first. The food in Chaozongmen Rice Market is gone, but if the fire cannot be controlled, half of Changsha will be burned down.
The city is not certain either.”
"Ming Jin retreats his troops!"
Luo Yaoguo finally made up his mind and waited for Su Sanniang to pass on the order. After the tinkling "golden sound" sounded, he asked Su Sanniang: "Has Li Shoucheng arrived?" "Just arrived," Su Sanniang said, "Take the
Five hundred people came."
Luo Yaoguo frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Ask Li Shoucheng to hand over the troops to you, and then order him to catch a few smarter Manchus himself." "Capture a few smarter Manchus? What's the use?"
"Be a messenger," Luo Yaoguo looked up at the Chaozongmen city wall in the distance and murmured, "I want to recruit Zuo Zongtang!"
"Recruitment?" Su Sanniang was stunned. She was quite familiar with the word "recruitment", but in the past, someone in the government wanted to recruit her, but she didn't expect that now she could also recruit others. Luo Yaoguo snorted softly:
Chapter completed!
