This Li Xuyi, like his brother Li Xubin, is Luo Zenan, who studied under Luo Zenan, one of the common people in the Hunan army.

And Luo Zenan is a well-known scholar and handsome soldier.

In history, Li Xuyi's actual military exploits are no more than his brother Li Xubin, but they are far less famous than his brother, and there is a reason for this.

The reason for this is that, as their contemporaries have pointed out, their specialties are different.

Li Xubin's specialty is good at fighting, so when he fights, he has many obvious records of charging into battle and killing the enemy to win.

And Li Xuyi's specialty is strategy, being able to strategize, arrange troops, make it difficult for the enemy to escape the arranged ending, and let the battle develop in the established direction, so that Li Xubin, who is good at fighting, can achieve the desired victory.

However, these most crucial aspects are not as obvious as they can be seen on the surface, and the reward for meritorious deeds is also based on the final effect, not according to the steps and preparations that precede victory.

Therefore, the two brothers were in a complementary relationship.

Today, Li Xuyi's appearance here is also a result of his own plan.

His current affiliation belongs to the Hunan army, and there is his mentor Luo Zenan in the Hunan army, not to mention, as well as the founder and absolute commander of the Hunan army like Zeng Guofan.

The Hunan army was under the governor of Huguang, Cheng Xucai, who was responsible for the south direction of the decisive battle of the two rivers to deal with Feng Yunshan of the southern corps of the Celestial Army.

This legion is full of ministers and generals, but there are not many who are both civil and military.

Therefore, when Li Xuyi proposed to send people to occupy the strategic area around the Feishui area of Bagong Mountain. Although we have everyone's support, there is no suitable candidate to send.

In the end, Li Xuyi, who was all-round in civil and military affairs, became the commander of the army and was independently responsible for this military operation.

His entire army numbered 70,000 men.

Among them, 30,000 were directly Xiangyong, and the other 20,000 were local gentry armed forces, who were directly recruited by him. Unified deployment.

The unified practice of the various armies was to recruit the local gentry and use them according to their military plans.

With the power of the emperor's extinction order, no one can resist.

Today, Li Xuyi brought people here, first of all, to open up the connection between Feishui and Bagong Mountain, and completely control this area in his own hands.

At his command, the local soldiers went their own way and built their own camps.

He is a descendant of the Hunan Army. It's completely different. They set up camp in an orderly manner according to the strict formations they had trained.

This formation was invented by Qi Jiguang, the anti-Japanese general of the Ming Dynasty, and it has a name, called "Mandarin Duck Array".

This formation is a team of eleven people, and the first person is the captain.

The two people next to him clamped the long shield, the second time the two people held the wolf's sword, the second time the four people clamped the spear and the spear, and the second time the two people clamped the short soldiers.

The formation can be adapted, and changing the column into a horizontal formation is called the Liangyi array. The two ritual arrays can be changed into three talent arrays.

The three-talent array is suitable for both attack and defense, and is suitable for narrow terrain such as mountains, forests, roads, and ridges.

In addition to the weapons that accompany this formation. Each person is also equipped with a "Jiguang Knife", also known as a two-handed knife, which is a long knife that is held with both hands and slashed at the enemy head-on.

The inventor of this long knife is also Qi Jiguang, referring to the katana used by the Japanese at that time, and it is a very powerful infantry weapon.

The main use of the Jiguang knife is to be used in a head-to-head confrontation between large troops; Some flexible Karakuri is useless, and it is completely hard work!

If you go down with a knife, either you die or I live.

Mai Ke gave Mr. Lin a new job and arranged for him two new titles.

One title is the Minister of State, reporting directly to Mai Ke. Responsible for the adjustment and handling of these treaty concession issues.

The other title is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Heaven, and at present he is mainly responsible for dealing with foreigners, especially the issue of treaty ports.

Mai Ke arranged for him two translators, one for English and one for Portuguese.

That is, just now, Mai Ke and the old man had a few words in a foreign language, and found that this former high-ranking official of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was proficient in two foreign languages!

One is English and the other is Portuguese, which was the popular Esperanto of that era!

Mai Ke estimated that even if the old man didn't eat the bowl of rice as an official and went to work as a translator for others, there would be no problem in mixing up food and clothing.

To work for the kingdom of heaven, the old man needs to concentrate on thinking about big problems, and these specific transactional tasks are done by others.

"Okay, old man, I will entrust you with all the things that Shanghai has to deal with foreigners, I will leave immediately, and you can come to me directly if you have anything in the future." Mai Ke said goodbye to the old man.

"You are busy with your going! I guess I'll see you in Gwangju next time, I'll be settled here, and I'll go to the Thirteen Lines immediately!" The old man was already staring at Gwangju.

The thirteen lines of Gwangju have a longer history than the French Concession and the Public Concession in Shanghai, a typical symbol of loss of power and humiliation of the country, an unforgettable place where Lin Zexu gritted his teeth when he thought of it, and the old man must kill it!

"Report! There's a foreigner who wants to see you!"

At this time, a knife would be a soldier of the Righteous Army who ran over and said to Mai Ke.

"Foreigner, do you want to see me, okay, old man, you are busy, I'll go see him, let's say goodbye!" Mai Ke felt that the matter here had come to an end, and in order not to affect the old man's work, he decided to go out to meet people.

"I'm not busy here! since I'm a foreigner, maybe it's related to my scope of work, and I want to know why he's looking for you. You're not against it, Mai Ke? The old man volunteered.

Mai Ke was right when he thought about it, since it was a foreigner, it must be a foreign-related matter, and it was not his turn to worry about the affairs of the kingdom of heaven.

So, he walked out with Lin Zexu.

When I looked outside, this foreigner was an acquaintance.

Tall, crooked nose, who is not Clinton?

After a little greeting with him, Mai Ke directly asked him if there was anything important to talk to him.

Clinton was quite cautious, looked at Old Man Lin, his lips were closed, and he didn't speak.

Mai Ke said: "Say it! This old man is the famous Lin Dashuai, and all your things will happen in the future." It's all under his management, and the next time you have anything, you can just go to him directly, he is my plenipotentiary!"

Only then did Clinton relax and say: "It's not that I'm cautious, it's that the matter is too urgent! And it's very sensitive, it's about the Manchu court of your country!"

"No matter who is involved, you can say it boldly! The Manchu court can't help us, so you must not be angry, right? Say, what is the matter? I am short on time, there is nothing important, and I will leave immediately. ”

"Okay, I'll say it!"

Then he came one by one. English, American, of course.

When Mai Ke and the others heard it, it was really an imminent matter.

It turned out that near the periphery of the concession, there were two large battalions of the Qing army, of which the Beida Battalion had three battalions of Qing soldiers, with a total number of almost 2,000 people, which could be regarded as a deterrent to foreigners in the concession.

The commander of the Qing army here is Gilhanga. He had always been in contact with the three powers, but that connection was superficial, not the kind of intimate relationship that allowed him to share secrets.

For example, now the knife will revolt. Although they knew that these powers had clashed with the rebels, they did not know what the conflict had come to and what the outcome would be.

Of course, the Little Knife Society would not inform them, because in fact the main targets of the Little Knife Society uprising were the Manchu authorities. Both sides are mortal enemies.

Of course, these powers will not inform them, and the conflict of interests between the two sides is also mutually exclusive.

Gilhanga has been stationed here. He is more clever and cunning, and where he can outwit, he will never attack.

When he learned that the government and garrison in Shanghai City had been killed by the rebels, he did not have the impulse to avenge them, nor did he send troops to recover the lost territory.

He has always stood still, waiting for his moment.

There was a serious conflict between the rebels and the two concessions. Although Gilhanga didn't know the details, he still saw the situation on the surface, so he took it for granted that he could fight with the clam and the fisherman would benefit.

Of course, he also knew that these powers were all very smart, and they were even more unprofitable guys, and the white wolf with empty gloves was basically useless.

In other words, if he wants to make a profit, he must contribute!

So, he came up with a plan called "Ming Xiu Plank Road, Secretly Crossing Chen Cang".

On the surface, he sent eight battalions to attack Shanghai City.

These eight battalions were not from his original three battalions, but were urgently transferred from the nearby youth army battalion.

Among them, five battalions were transferred from the neighboring Jiang Su, and three battalions were transferred from Zhejiang, which was a little farther away.

Of course, the Southern Battalion was also involved, and in fact they had been confronting the rebels.

These people, plus the Qing soldiers who were originally stationed around Shanghai, concentrated almost 2,000 troops at each city gate.

It was there that they blocked the road out of the city, and then fired a series of arrows at the gates, occasionally launching small sieges.

In fact, Gilhanga had already arranged it, these people were just used to contain Zuò, and the real attack force was all the way in the shadows.

This way in the shadows is the main force of the three battalions of Gilhanga.

Their plan was to sneak into the concession while the four gates were all pinned, and take advantage of the road to approach the northwest corner of Shanghai City, and climb in from there.

Li Xuyi's troops actually came from Feishui, their ships and supplies were here, and about a thousand people were left here to guard, which was their lifeline of defense, and there was no room for error.

Where did you think that the special forces of the Heavenly Army, Mizuhara, had all been dispatched and hid in an area called Jiuyoushui Bay.

At this time, when he heard the signal cannon, he immediately jumped out of the water and took Li Xuyi's defensive position in one fell swoop!

Not only did they capture all the defenders, but they also captured all their ships and supplies!

The heavenly army in front was unstoppable, and the back road was fired again, Li Xuyi couldn't control it anymore, and the remaining soldiers screamed and fled in all directions!.
