Han’s Son is Not a Slave

phone-reading

Guangdong is too far away, how did the Manchu general Hamu fall, and how did the Prince Jian Jidu die? Most of these Qing troops in Hechi City did not know about it, so they only took the Manchurian who had won almost every battle since entering the customs. The Eight Banners soldiers of the state acted as saviors and dependants, shouting excitedly and jumping for joy, as if the Taiping bandits would be wiped out as soon as the Manchu soldiers arrived. However, Xian Guoan and others, who knew that the Taiping Army had wiped out the Manchu soldiers twice, saw that the soldiers were greatly excited by the arrival of the Manchu soldiers, and they were naturally happy to see it. How could they possibly tell them the truth.

At first, the Taiping army outside the city only listened to the Qing army on the city shouting something, but it was not very clear, but later they heard it clearly - the Qing army on the city seemed to deliberately let the Taiping army hear it. , Hundreds of thousands of people shouted at the same time that the Manzhou Iron Cavalry had arrived, quite a bit of a shocking momentum.

In the Taiping Army, a former Green Battalion soldier from Baihu heard the Qing army's cry, but sneered, his tone was full of disdain and said to the soldiers around him: "What Manchu iron cavalry, Lao Tzu also slashed Zhenta with his sword. What about the son-in-law?"

After saying this, some soldiers who participated in the Chaohui War immediately became excited, some said they had cut down Manchu soldiers, and some said they had cut off Mongolian soldiers. In their descriptions, whether it is Manzhou Zhentar, Mongolia Ertar, or the lackeys of the Han army, they all have one head and two arms, and they don't look like they have three heads and six arms. snakelike. The knife was chopped up, and the sound of "Pu Chi" was firmly cut into the flesh, and it sounded like killing a pig, not a hero. To say that there is a difference, that is, Manzhou Zhentar's mouth is much worse than that of the Han people, and the yellow is so bad that the mouth is a stench, which makes people feel nauseous.

When the veterans said this, the new recruits who were a little scared and nervous when they heard that Manchu Zhentar had come, immediately relaxed. The same scene was staged everywhere in Brigade A and Brigade C. The officers used various methods to cheer up the recruits whose subordinates had not fought with the Manchu soldiers, and at the same time sent urgent reports to the Legion Department.

Li Guoan, the brigade school of the A brigade, saw that there were many reinforcements from the Qing army, so he discussed with Song Zhong, the new brigade school of the C brigade, who was also a descendant of the Qi family army with Yu Shizhong. The main force of the army arrived.

Song Zhong was very sturdy, and the beard on his face was the number one in the army. His father and brother both died in Hunhe. Song Zhong himself has a hereditary position, but he is the hereditary commander of Haizhou guards, but he has not been to Haizhou since he can remember. Song Zhong's name is not good, his colleagues in the army are always making fun of him, and Song Zhong's death is very unlucky.

However, Song Zhong liked his unlucky name very much, because he was sent to the end, not to be sent to the end. Li Guoan proposed to withdraw one after another to avoid the reinforcements of the Qing army. Song Zhong agreed, because he has no confidence in his heart, and his facial hair is not fake, but it does not mean that he is a rough man without strategy and bravery, knowing that the Qing army has many soldiers and horses , and there are thousands of cavalry, only two brigades of their own less than 5,000 men and horses, the outcome of the fight is really difficult to say. Furthermore, after chasing for nearly a hundred miles south, the soldiers were exhausted and needed to rest, otherwise their energy and stamina would not be able to keep up.

After the Taiping army retreated, more than 4,000 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry led by Roto himself rushed to the foot of Hechi City.

Roto had been sent a message from Arzin and knew that there were Taiping troops under Hechi City. After waiting, there was no gap between the battle formations, and Roto immediately dispelled the idea of ​​​​rushing into the formation. At this time, it is not only the Taiping army that will be exhausted, but the Qing army as well. In order to get there as soon as possible, the Roto team accelerated their march for three consecutive days, and the men and horses were all at their limit. If there is a chance drill can succeed in one strike, the Qing army can also cheer up and charge, but the opponent's formation is tight, and it is impossible to succeed in one strike.

Like Doni, the commander-in-chief of the Qing army, King of Xinjun, Roto is also a young clan. He is a third-class general of Zhenguo, Gushan Ezhen, but unlike Doni who has never been in battle, Roto has fought a few battles. After some weighing, Roto ordered the entire army to enter the city.

After Roto entered the city, Arzin, Xian Guoan and other generals hurried to see him. After the generals gave the military salute, Roto was impatient and asked Xian Guoan: "How did you do it, why did Qingyuan lose his effort in just a few days?"

Roto's questioning made Xian Guoan's face blushed slightly, and he bravely told the story of the Taiping army's use of gunpowder to collapse the Qingyuan city wall. After listening, Roto was speechless for a while, but then he asked the left and right to know how the gunpowder broke the wall. Both left and right did not know, Roto couldn't help but be surprised, and ordered someone to write down this method and send someone to Yunnan. No one on their side knew about this method of breaking the city. There are many aides under the general's account who joined the army. If you can learn this method, in the future, you will have more ways to defeat the enemy in dealing with the Ming army city, and you can also take more precautions against the enemy army's method of breaking the city.

Roto asked Xian Guoan how many Taiping troops were attacking Qingyuan. Xian Guoan wanted to exaggerate the number of Taiping troops, but he thought that the Taiping troops were in front of him. Thousands of people.

"More than ten thousand?"

Roto was stunned. If he remembered correctly, when Xian Guoan asked for help, he said that he had less than 20,000 horses under his command. This means that Xian Guoan was defeated by the Taiping bandits with only 10,000 horses. Even if the Taiping bandits had gunpowder and collapsed This method of breaking the city, this battle is too bad, or the line Guoan is too incompetent.

Xian Guoan couldn't defend himself, so he kept his head down and didn't say anything. The Han army generals and a few surrendered generals under the Dingnan domain did not dare to make a sound in front of the Manchu clan of Roto. Because of the previous two defeats, Arzin would not be able to fall into the trap. He said in front of Roto. Line Guoan is not. Otherwise, when Roto asked, his face was dull.

A notification came from the city, saying that the infantry brigade had arrived. Roto hurriedly asked Xian Guoan to take people to pick up Li Benshen and Zhang Yong. After more than 9,000 Green Battalion soldiers entered the city, the small Hechi City suddenly seemed a little crowded. This crowding is not to say that the city cannot accommodate so many people, but that many places were set on fire by the defeated soldiers, so that there were not so many houses for the Qing soldiers to live in.

Hechi City originally had a tongzhi appointed by the Qing army, but after the Taiping army came, the tongzhi ran away with the seal. The Taiping Army's Guangxi Governor Yamen appointed a new Hechi Prefecture official, but after the Qing army came, that Prefecture official also ran away with a wooden seal, so there are no officials in the city now, even those Yamen have also run away. Most of the people in the city also took refuge in the countryside, so the Qing army has searched the city and has not found much food until now.

Roto's troops came down from Guizhou. For a period of time along the way, they relied on rations to maintain. If Chen Weixin, the governor of Guangxi who had retreated to Duyun, had collected a batch of military rations and sent it, Roto would not have been able to get down in Guizhou. However, this batch of military rations provided by Chen Weixin can only support the Roto Department for five or six days. There must be no hope for Xian Guoan. When the army was withdrawn from Liuzhou, almost all the luggage was discarded, and there was not much military rations. He would be chased by the Taiping Army all the way from Qingyuan, so how could he still bring rations?

After Li Benshen, Zhang Yong, Liu Fangming, Gaudi, Bai Guangen and other Han generals entered the city, Roto called the generals to hold a meeting to discuss.

Li Benshen turned out to be the nephew of Ming general Gao Jie, and like Li Chengdong, he was a general under Gao Jie. After Gao Jie's death, Li Benshen took the post of Gao Jie's Admiral, and together with Li Chengdong, he surrendered Duoduo, the Prince of Qingyu. After Li Chengdong went south to capture Guangdong, his conscience found that he returned to Ming anyway, but Li Benshen had been working for the Qing court. In the eighth year of Shunzhi, after Hong Chengchou assumed the post of the Five Provinces, he appointed Li Benshen to serve as the admiral of Zuobiao, and the commander-in-chief of Gansu, Zhang Yong, was transferred to serve as the admiral of the right.

After the Battle of Mopanshan, Hong Chengchou suggested to Duny that Li Benshen should be appointed as the governor of Guizhou and Zhang Yong as the governor of Yunnan, but due to the great changes in the northern line, these two appointments were temporarily put on hold. This time Hong Chengchou asked the two of them to go north with Roto, and also wanted them to make military exploits, so that they could justifiably serve as the admirals of Guizhou and Yunnan.

Liu Fang's name was originally Liugou's chief soldier in the Ming Dynasty. After the second year of Shunzhi's surrender to the Qing Dynasty, he was transferred to Ningxia's chief soldier. Meng Qiaofang, the governor of the three sides appointed by the Qing court, was highly regarded. In the 14th year of Shunzhi, he was transferred to Jiangning, and later entered the southwest with Zhao Butai, the general of the army. After Zhao Butai was dismissed due to the Battle of Mopanshan, Liu Fangming was transferred by Hong Chengchou to the account of Zuobiao Admiral Li Benshen, and this time he went north with Roto.

Bai Guangen was originally a Ming general, but he made some military exploits in the Songshan War. Later, he returned to Shaanxi to follow Sun Chuanting to deal with thieves. Tongguan city was destroyed and defeated in Guyuan. He was besieged by Li Zicheng's army and surrendered. After Li Zicheng's death, he turned to the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing court did not use it much, but only transferred to the Han army under the banner of Zhenghuang to serve as an official. It was not until Hong Chengchou took over as the five provincial classics that he listened to Hong Chengchou's men. However, it has not been of great use. This time Bai Guangen invited him to go north, and his intention was to gain some military exploits.

Gao Di was the former chief soldier of Shanhaiguan in the Ming Dynasty, while Wu Sangui was the chief soldier of the Liaodong regiment. Wu Sangui first voted for Li Zicheng and then repented and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but Gao Di was reluctant to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. He fought with Wu Sangui at Xishihe in Shanhaiguan and Jiumen in Funing County. After Wu Sangui let the Qing army enter the customs, Gao Di had no way to go and surrendered to the Qing. He still ordered the commander of Shanhaiguan, and later the commander of Henan Kaigui. In the ten years of Shunzhi, Gaodi wrote to ask for a break. Due to the repeated wars in the south, the Qing court refused to allow it. , let him serve under Hong Chengchou's account. Since entering the southwest, Gaudi has never led an army. First, he is old, and second, his health has not been very good since he came to Guizhou, and it is difficult to mount a horse to kill the enemy. Like Bai Guangen, this time Gao Di also asked to go north by himself, but he wanted to ask for a break when the war was over, and he had no intention of staying in Yungui for a long time.

After the generals arrived, Roto asked Xian Guoan to briefly explain the situation of the war in Guangxi, and then asked Arzin to talk about the fact that the military supplies could only be maintained for three or five days, and then asked the generals to make a decision. The result of the decision was naturally a quick battle.

A quick battle requires an attack, and an attack cannot be avoided without coordination among the various armies~www.NovelMTL.com~ Although the Qing army has the highest status in the Qing army, Roto is also an authentic Manchu noble, but in this urgent need of Han With the assistance of the army, he would not show any face to the generals of the green camp, but said to the generals of the green camp with good words: "The king of Pingxi in the southwest has sent Zhu Youlang to Burma, the general. I was determined to have the King of Pingxi enter Burma to capture Zhu Youlang. Once Zhu Youlang died, the situation in Yunnan would be stable. However, now the Ming army of Guangdong suddenly moved westward and occupied Guangxi and Hunan. Here. This battle is to completely annihilate the Taiping bandits in Guangxi and retake Guangxi, and the situation in the southwest will be fully alive, so I hope that the generals will use their lives to win in one fell swoop!"

"As long as the general is instructed, serve the court, we are definitely not the ones who hold back!"

Xian Guoan, Li Benshen, Zhang Yong, Bai Guangen and other Han generals were busy responding.

Roto nodded. He still had some understanding of Li Benshen and Zhang Yong, especially that Zhang Yong was a rare general, and his Shaanxi-Gansu battalion was even more elite. , all of them bravely take the lead, this battle will have a good chance of winning.

Bai Guangen suddenly said: "Since Zhu Youlang has abandoned the country and fled to Burma, then Zhu Ming is no longer orthodox. I thought it might as well tell this news to the generals of the Taiping Army who led the army. If the other party knew that their emperor had abandoned the country, I'm afraid it will shake."

"This policy is great!"

Roto was overjoyed when he heard the words. How could he forget this? He couldn't let the Taiping army on the other side surrender to the Qing Dynasty, but it could also shake their morale. Immediately, he sent someone to pass the news of Yongli's abandonment of the country to the opposite side. He didn't want the generals of the Taiping army on the opposite side to hear the news, but he was not surprised, and the people who opposed the arrival of the Qing army calmly said: "We know that the emperor has run away. To be continued.)
