Han’s Son is Not a Slave

In June, Xinhui fought a tough battle to win Xinhui City in one go. Shang Kexi personally ordered his own soldiers to fight. However, the Xinhui Fortified City built by thousands of Qing troops and more than 30,000 people smashed the feet of the Qing army. No matter how capable the soldiers are, they are helpless in the face of the strong city of Xinhui, killing and injuring hundreds of children of Liaodong. After repeated defeats, not only did Shang Kexi realize that this fortified city, which even Li Dingguo, whom he feared most, could not capture, was not something he could take hard, but also made the soldiers of this family go south with the arrogance that they thought they were invincible. A stagnation.

After that, the Qing army changed from attack to defense, and built three lines of defense along the outside of Xinhui City, and surrounded Xinhui City like iron barrels, intending to starve the Taiping army in the city to death, so it cost no one to fight. One soldier recaptured this amazing fortified city. During this period, the soldiers of the army were never used, and Shang Zhixin did not use the soldiers in several small-scale harassment operations against the Taiping Army, so that the strength of the soldiers of the army was preserved, and their supply was the largest in the army. In the case of starvation, the soldiers of this family not only had enough to eat, but even the war horses were constantly chewing, which made the battalion soldiers scold people for being inferior to animals.

After a letter from Hong Chengchou, the manager of the five provinces, Ban Zhifu suggested that Shang Kexi should transfer his own soldiers from the Xinhui, and then transfer a banner soldier and Xu Erxian, the general soldier of Zhaoqing, to go west to Gaozhou to explore the facts of the Southern Ming Dynasty. If the rumored internal conflict between Sun and Li is true , then adopted the strategy of encircling Xinhui and actually attacking Li Dingguo, in one fell swoop, pacified the small court of Nanming who fled in Yungui for the Qing Dynasty.

This strategy is deeply in line with Shang Ke's desire to seek great power, but unfortunately it has not yet been implemented, and the news of the navy being burned and the food and grass being cut off came from the Xinhui. Before Shang Kexi could make a decision, the prince, Shang Zhixin, reported that he had ordered the entire army to attack, for the sake of his son's prestige and the smooth road to the west. Zhifu Pegasus went to Xinhui to help his son. After all, it was difficult for the Ming army, who was nailed under the eyes of Guangzhou, to reassure the old man that he would make the most of the Western faction.

In Shang Kexi's opinion, the Taiping army being trapped in Xinhui City is a dead horse. There is no need to worry that he will affect the overall situation, but the current situation is that once the siege is cleared, this dead horse will become a living horse. So in any case, Shang Kexi can't let the Taiping Army salted fish turn over, or Li Suotai, who has been against him all the time, will send a letter to the capital, and he will be ashamed of King Pingnan?

In a word, no matter whether the Taiping army continues to occupy Xinhui City or wanders around Guangzhou, he will not agree!

In this case. Ban Zhifu's persuasion was useless. After arriving at the new meeting, he tried his best to cooperate with His Royal Highness, but he couldn't attack three times in a row, and he had to make Ban Zhifu prepare early.

Ban Zhifu's bottom line is to preserve the strength and vitality of his own soldiers. The battalion can be defeated, the flag soldiers can be defeated, but the soldiers of the own army cannot be defeated, let alone lose them!

With the combined efforts of Ban Zhifu and the army of this family, Qin Guocheng, sure enough. Shang Zhixin's thoughts of wanting his own soldiers to attack the city were dispelled by the two of them several times, but now, the two of them have involuntarily started to use their own soldiers to fight.

The soldiers of this family are the elites in the field under the Pingnan vassal and the leader of the whole army. As long as it wasn't a stupid battle like a city siege that took people's lives, neither Ban Zhifu nor Qin Guocheng would have thought that his own soldiers would be defeated. In particular, the soldiers of this family are fighting the battle that they are best at!

Geng Zhongde's Zhenghuangqi and Hu Qili's supervising flag withdrawal from the battle have declared that the Xinhui defense line has collapsed, and it is unnecessary to forcibly hold on, after the Prince is safely sent away. Qin Guocheng mobilized his own troops to launch a counter-charge against the Taiping army as discussed in advance. This move did not seek to defeat the Taiping army, but to severely damage the field force of the Taiping army out of the city, so that the Qing troops would not suffer too many casualties when they collapsed. Afterwards, the cavalry and cavalry of the own family were used to cover the orderly retreat of the various ministries, so that the Taiping army would not be bitten behind.

…

After Qin Guocheng dispatched his soldiers to fight, Ban Zhifu suddenly turned his head and glanced at Xinhuicheng. He was uneasy and full of hope at the same time. He had already made all the arrangements he could, and whether he could withdraw successfully now depends on his soldiers. Well, if Qin Guocheng can't stop the Taiping army, then the consequences will be...

Ban Zhifu didn't think about the consequences, because he didn't dare to think about it, and because he never thought about it.

The soldiers of this family, the No. 1 army under Pingnan, have never been defeated for a while!

…….

Shang Keyuan, who acted separately from Ban Zhifu, was also uneasy after announcing the retreat order. He rode his horse and took a few Goshhas to the barracks of his family, handing over Qin Guocheng, who was wearing armor, and said, "I hope Qin Dutong can show the might of my Qing army!"

After a pause, he glanced at the vests of the soldiers who were busy putting on their armor, and whispered to Qin Guocheng in a heavy tone, "You must be careful when you go here. Don't go after the thieves, so as not to be dragged by the Ming army on the river. Qin Dutong is all concerned with whether the army can retreat safely, so please be careful!"

"Brother Shang, don't worry!"

With the help of Goshha, Qin Guocheng tightened his armor, then patted the heartguard on his chest, and said to himself: "My soldiers can kill the enemy when mounted on horses, and they can rush into formation when I dismount. The lord has raised soldiers for a thousand days, and today is the first of my own soldiers. When I try my skills, please tell Brother Shang to Ban Dutong, I, Qin Guocheng, guarantee with my head that I will win this battle! If I lose, I don’t need to ask the lord to blame, I, Qin Guocheng, will wipe my neck!”

When Shang Keyuan heard this, he knew Qin Guocheng, and he knew that he was not the kind of person who was open-mouthed and boasted. Since he was so confident, and his army was indeed a strong force under the Pingnan domain, he was also a cavalry rushing into the formation. Absolutely invincible. Immediately said: "Okay, then I will take a step first and wait for the good news of Qin Dutong at Sanjiangkou!"

Qin Guocheng nodded heavily, took a step forward, turned around and shouted to the soldiers of the army who had already finished wearing their armor: "My sons, dare to rush with the generals!"

"Dare! Dare! Dare!"

More than 500 soldiers from the main clan roared heroically as they patted their chests together.

"Come with me!"

Qin Yincheng took a sharp breath, waved his hand, and took the lead in rushing forward.

The progress of Hujie and the second battalion of Xiongwei was not smooth again~www.NovelMTL.com~ Shao Jiugong had organized several charges and were repelled by the Qing army. Zhou Shixiang no longer hesitated after hearing the news, and led the guard battalion to press it up, and personally He organized a charge, but was still repelled by the flag soldiers behind the fence, which made Zhou Shixiang angry and anxious, and had to admire the strong combat effectiveness of the Qing army and the Han army flag. If the Qing troops on every line of defense were like the Han army flag soldiers It is difficult to fight, I am afraid that the Taiping Army will have already been pressed back to Xinhui City, and even the Qing army has taken advantage of the situation to seize the city.

The Taiping army suffered heavy casualties, and the Qing army was not much better. There were corpses everywhere on the battlefield. The enemy and us took advantage of the retreat to seize the time to breathe and readjust their forces. Zhou Shixiang, who has been unable to get the news of the navy on the river for a long time, has his brows locked together. It would be wise to suspend the attack and let the navy go ashore. Anyway, the Qing army's defense line has been penetrated three times, and the Qing army is tenacious in face. It can't change the reality that the Taiping Army has broken the blockade, but Zhou Shixiang still wants to fight again, but for some reason, his eyelids keep twitching.

Isn't this a good sign. Damn, all the sailors on the river are eating dry rice, can't they see that Lao Tzu has won!

Zhou Shixiang angrily scolded the navy for refusing to go ashore, and while he was scolding, a horn sounded from the Qing army defense line on the opposite side, and then he saw a group of soldiers and horses suddenly moving slowly forward of the Qing army behind the formation, and heard horseshoes. The muffled sound of the ground. To be continued.
