Chapter 819 is worthy of the mountains and rivers of Guilin
Ha Zhong'a, Wan Zhizhang, Ding Guangye, the three of them were moved in their hearts, and tears filled their eyes, and then the three of them glanced at each other, and laughed again!
Then, they came up together and shook hands with Zhao Zhongxiang!
Greetings from the Lord!
Sure enough, man is not as good as God!
Indeed, with man it is impossible, but with God all things are possible!
Ha Zhong'a was crying and laughing there, and when his head didn't think about anything, Wan Zhizhang, who liked to think, couldn't help but sigh.
Then, the three of them came up together and shook hands with Zhao Zhongxiang!
Greetings from the Lord!
No matter how stupid he is, Zhao Zhongxiang knows what is going on, not to mention, how can he be stupid as a Christian in the face of strong enemies all day long?
You have to be cunning like a snake!
As the Bible teaches.
Now, the heads of the military administration of the two prefectures of Juezhou and Guilin have gathered together to concentrate on one thing - to take down these two places as much as possible, and let them play their role under the banner of the Kingdom of Heaven.
Ding Guangye knew Mai Ke's strategic intentions best, so he took the lead and retold them to the three of them.
To put it simply, it's three points.
First of all, and the most basic, is to occupy all the prefectures and counties under this prefecture, and thoroughly control them, both militarily and administratively.
After the incident, there was no longer a Qing army, and there was no longer a Manchu official.
Once you've established your foundation, you'll move on to your next military target, Hunan!
Specifically, it is to open up the Xiangxi Corridor and prepare a strategic passage to prepare for entering Hunan in the future.
If possible, it is best to enter Xiangxi. Build a bridgehead to echo the rest of the battlefield.
Third, after completing these two items, if they have spare strength, if necessary, they will go to support the neighboring Yizhou, and their goal is Hechi, a large mansion with a vast territory.
After the introduction, Ding Guangye came up with his own plan for sending troops, his 20,000 field army. Set aside 5,000 for Juezhou. The rest all went to Guilin, because there were almost twice as many prefectures and counties there as there were in Juezhou.
Again, because to build a bridgehead into Hunan, more troops would also have to be used.
Leave a brigade commander for Juezhou. Ding Guangye himself led an army of 15,000 to the east.
There was no objection to the military arrangement. It's just that some of the suggestions were mentioned in other ways. For example, how to select and determine the top leaders of each state and county.
Ding Guangye will contact the command and ask people to do these things. The immediate task now is to complete the military deployment and occupy the entire territory.
After finishing business, everyone just eats and has a little bit of chat.
The wine and food prepared for the Hongmen banquet are all there, although Ha Zhong'a, Wan Zhizhang, and Ding Guangye have bad intentions, just to pit Zhao Zhongxiang, the food is not discounted, the real delicacies of the mountains and seas!
Before eating, Ding Guangye had already passed the order to go, so that everyone was ready, and he would be punished after an hour.
After the four of them had prayed for thanksgiving, they began to eat, and everyone estimated that they had eaten and then stopped eating, and I am afraid that they would have to wait until after the victory.
Ha Zhong'a, who is losing weight, did not control it this time, saying that he would play with his life for a while, so he had to reserve some nutrients.
Everyone knows that he is not under a lot of pressure, although he is not as good as Guilin, he also has tasks in ten states and counties.
They toasted him and wished him success, and he was fat with a wide heart.
He didn't care, laughed, and drank a big glass!
Then everyone toasted a glass and stopped drinking.
Among the crowd, Ha Zhong'a was the most curious about the baby, so he asked how Zhao Zhongxiang believed in the Lord.
Of course, Zhao Zhongxiang did not lack the boldness of a martial artist, and said with a haha: "Okay! Let me share my experience of believing in the Lord." However, I would also like to know about the three of you. ”
Here, since Ding Guangye represents the Heavenly Army and is more familiar with related matters, he decided on the spot to introduce his experience of believing in the Lord and testify to the Lord Jesus before eating.
Zhao Zhongxiang came first.
It turned out that he was from Cangzhou, Hebei, and there had been Christians preaching the gospel there for a long time.
He once played hide and seek with his friends and ran to a small church, and it was one night, when he heard a man muttering something there, and he would turn a book and one would kneel on the ground.
He was originally a stupid bold, and he was not afraid to see this, and quietly lurked to the side to listen.
Probably because her latent level is not low, and the person has not noticed it.
And his little friends are not as bold as him, the chapel is a mysterious forbidden area in their minds!
As a result, he stayed there for three hours!
It was also his first time in Bible reading and prayer, but in a different way.
He still remembers vividly that he heard in John 3:16 that whoever believes in the Lord Jesus will not perish, but have eternal life.
Later, he learned that the man who had not stopped reading the Bible and praying for three hours was the pastor of this small church.
He was also the initiation teacher of his Christian faith.
From then on, he frequented the chapel, and a year later, the pastor baptized him and officially put him in the name of the Lord.
"I left there and joined the army because my baptist pastor was killed by some rebels! I always remembered him and hoped that one day I would be able to avenge him! His name was Almsgiving. ”
"Remember, Lord!" the three prayed in unison.
"Thank you, brother, for your touching sharing! I think Pastor Shi will be smiling when he learns that you are contributing to the kingdom of heaven today! Maybe he is looking at us somewhere in heaven right now, maybe he is still praising his brother and saying that you have lived up to his expectations!
I don't know how many people he has led to conversion, but I think that having such a brother will live up to the Lord's trust.
"I heard the brother just said that he wanted to avenge him, maybe you know who the murderer is, maybe you don't know, but I think Pastor Shi didn't come to you to ask for justice, just as the Lord Jesus came to earth and died on the cross.
For the sake of his own justice or anything else, the Lord Jesus did not have to come into the world as a human being, and Pastor Shi did not have to travel all the way from a foreign country to China. "He is asking for his own good, there is no need to come out at all!
So he risked his life for the sake of the gospel!
"His death is to seek mercy and gain kindness, and to die a well-deserved death!
As Paul said, He has finished the good fight of this world and will be rewarded with the crown of life!
"So, I don't think you have to be obsessed with avenging him. He wants to see you used by the Lord. Like him, bring in the converts and pass on his torch!"
After Ding Guangye finished speaking, he saw that everyone was staring at him. Suddenly realized: "Huh? Why did I say so much. What's wrong with a priest?"
The crowd said in unison, "You're a pastor! You're a pastor better than a pastor!"
Then the crowd burst into laughter!
What they don't realize is. The power of a pastor is God-given, and God gives it to the right people at the right time. That is, the one he chooses.
Ding Guangye is such a person, but he himself is not clear.
"Ahem! I forgot to introduce myself! I became a believer a month ago, and I just listened to a sermon from Mai Ke, and I am still a new recruit in the Lord!" Ding Guangye added.
"Me too!Update!The only difference is that Mai Ke talked to me, and after I made up my mind, he arranged for me to be this duplicity!" Ha Zhonga shouted.
"I think you're the best two-faced person in the world! Your smiling face was born to do this!" Wan Zhizhang said with a smile, giving this smiling tiger a conclusion!
Everyone looked at Ha Zhong'a, studied his facial features, and felt that Wan Zhizhang was serious about three points.
"Hahahaha!"
"Mine is more complicated, starting from when I was a student, I went through more than ten years of thinking before finally believing in the Lord. Wan Zhizhang said.
"It's very interesting, once I went to the library to borrow books, I was looking for a copy of the Tao Te Ching, but I saw the Bible!
"You know, the classical scriptures in China are all thin books, and when you suddenly see the Bible, its thickness attracts people's attention!
So, I decided to borrow it and read it, but when I registered, I found out that the book was not recorded!
"So, from the very beginning, I intuitively thought that this was a heavenly book!
The administrator was also very funny, saying that since there is no record, if you want to see it, you can take it first!
"Then I figured out that he probably put it there! And probably that day! And even more so for potential readers!
"So, I still miss him!"
"Haha, I see that you usually have clear thinking and sharp reactions, and I didn't expect that it would take more than ten years to establish faith! I think you are just an elm head and don't open your mind!
As he spoke, he looked at the other two, and got their praise from the non-expiry!
"It's not like that!" I didn't expect the two to do the opposite, opposing his statement.
If this one is an elm head, others will be even more elm!
After the four of them finished sharing and eating, they immediately went their separate ways.
Ha Zhong'a led 5,000 troops to deal with the prefectures and counties in Juezhou.
Wan Zhizhang and Zhao Zhongxiang hurried back, they were going to organize another Hongmen banquet!
This year's Hongmen banquet was not good for the year, and the first two times were halfway.
If it is wasted, it will be wasted, but the effect is better than the successful Hongmen banquet, I don't know how many times!
So, they continued to plan a third one, which was to be used against the garrison chiefs of the states and counties below.
Gather all those officers such as the commander-in-chief and the lieutenant together and capture them in one fell swoop!
Ding Guangye walked with the army.
Along the way, it is not only a matter of hurrying, but more importantly, arranging troops and deploying troops.
His army of 15,000 had 15 regiments under his command, all of which were fully staffed.
Soon after departure, he began to dispatch.
The first regiment looked directly to the east, to the southeast corner of Guilin, and occupied Pingle County.
The second regiment was roughly parallel to the first regiment, but the target was the relatively close county of Lipu County.
The third regiment went straight to the eastern part of Guilin, occupied Gongcheng County there, and liberated the oppressed Yao brothers and sisters there.
The fourth regiment headed for Yangshuo County, a little south of central Guilin.
The Fifth Regiment, the largest and most battle-hardened regiment in the whole army, known as the Tiger Regiment, was responsible for occupying Quanzhou County, which was not only vast in size but also had complex terrain. And it is close to Hunan, which is a key place that must be occupied.
The 6th Regiment went to Tank County, which is close to Quanzhou County and is also a battleground on the border with Hunan.
The 7th Regiment went to Zhiyuan County, the northernmost part of Guilin, which is also adjacent to Hunan.
The 8th Regiment went to occupy Cheng'an County, in the central part of northern Guilin.
The Ninth Regiment went straight to Longsheng County. Liberate the inhabitants of all ethnic groups there.
10th Regiment. Occupy Lingchuan County, which is already close to the suburbs of Guilin.
The 11th Regiment occupied and held Yongfu County, which was the passage from Lingzhou to Guizhou.
Twelfth Regiment. Travel to Lingui County.
The remaining three regiments. Led by Ding Guangye himself. Responsible for five suburbs, they are Yanshan, Xiufeng, Diecai, Xiangshan, and Qixing.
Before everyone divided the troops, Ding Guangye specially reminded. Be sure to wait for Zhao Zhongxiang and their Hongmen banquet to start before attacking.
Before that, everyone must march in concealment, and do not startle the snake.
If you encounter an enemy, you can hide, and if you can't, you will kill people, and you must do it cleanly and neatly, leaving no traces.
Civilians or suspected enemy soldiers are to be imprisoned and temporarily suspended until they are released.
The same is true for enemy troops who lay down their arms.
After Ding Guangye finished his order, everyone immediately split up, and in a short time, the team with the regiment as a unit was hidden in the lofty mountains.
The remaining three regiments, also under the leadership of Ding Guangye, passed through Yongfu County and went straight to Lingui, where the Manchu Guizhou leaders were stationed.
The army moved forward, and the scouts released twenty miles, ensuring that there would be no enemy ambushes in front of them, and they did not worry about leaking the news.
Although he was very cautious and cautious, due to the long distance, when he was about to arrive in Lingui, something happened to him.
The vanguard of the Celestial Army, the outpost, unexpectedly met a Manchu army!
The vigilance of this Qing army is very high, and it is particularly brave, just by looking at it, you know that the other party is the enemy!
There are a lot of soldiers in the sky, not only the outpost, but also the brigade behind them!
But they were not afraid at all, and rushed up with their horses, without saying a word, they just raised their swords and guns at the same time, and used their greatest strength!
If they just rushed up, the heavenly army would not have been able to ask for it, but the damnish thing is that they actually split into a pair, turned their horses' heads and ran!
Needless to say, it's also to report the news!
Ding Guangye just thought with his toes, and knew that if they were allowed to escape, this military operation would definitely be exposed, and they must not be allowed to do so!
So, he gave an order to his captain of the guard, and asked him to lead twenty guards to chase after him, and he must solve them one by one!
The captain of the guard nodded, and with a whoosh, he jumped out, and twenty guards rushed out from behind.
Seeing that the Celestial Army was going to chase people, the enemy army, which was already small enough to fight with the Celestial Army, divided half of its manpower to intercept these guard members!
Ding Guangye was furious! He shouted: "Kill them all!"
The soldiers of the Celestial Army who participated in the action rose up majesticly, and with happy movements in their hands, the number of them also increased exponentially, and in an instant, these enemy troops were drowned.
After these enemies were dealt with, and then looking at the pursuers, the captain of the guard also issued a strong battle spirit and destroyed all the enemies who blocked him.
But when I looked up, I could see a little shadow of the enemy deserter just now, but now there was no trace of it.
It can be seen that this group of people is not only ruthless and decisive, but also has a clear goal, that is, to report their findings back, at any cost!
When Ding Guangye saw this, he felt that things were a little complicated, and the key now was to control those who escaped.
So, he doubled his men and horses and continued the pursuit!
On the other hand, he reported to the headquarters what was going on, especially what had just happened.
It didn't take long for the headquarters to send new instructions, telling them to occupy the border area with Hunan more quickly, and to take the enemy's territory where the bridgehead was established.
The remaining three regiments, led by Ding Guangye himself, are responsible for five suburbs, which are Yanshan, Xiufeng, Diecai, Xiangshan, and Qixing.
Before everyone divided their troops, Ding Guangye specially reminded that they must wait for Zhao Zhongxiang and their Hongmen banquet to start before attacking.
Before that, everyone must march in concealment, and do not startle the snake.
If you encounter an enemy, you can hide, and if you can't, you will kill people, and you must do it cleanly and neatly, leaving no traces.
Encountering civilians, or suspected enemy soldiers. They are to be imprisoned and to be released until they are over.
The same is true for enemy troops who lay down their arms.
After Ding Guangye finished his order, everyone immediately split up, and in a short time, the team with the regiment as a unit was hidden in the lofty mountains.
The remaining three regiments, also under the leadership of Ding Guangye, passed through Yongfu County and went straight to Lingui, where the Manchu Guizhou leaders were stationed.
The army marches forward. The scouts released twenty miles. The front and back and left and right ensure that there will be no enemy ambush, and there is no worry about leakage.
Although very cautious and cautious, due to the long distance, it is almost time to Lingui. Something still happened.
The vanguard of the Celestial Army. Actually met a Manchu army!
The vigilance of this Qing army was very high. And he is very brave, just by looking at his face, he knows that the other party is the enemy!
There are many famous celestial soldiers. Not only are there more people at the outpost, but there are more centaurs in the back!
But they were not afraid at all, and rushed up with their horses, without saying a word, they just raised their swords and guns at the same time, and used their greatest strength!
If they just rushed up, the heavenly army would not have been able to ask for it, but the damnish thing is that they actually split into a pair, turned their horses' heads and ran!
Needless to say, it's also to report the news!
Ding Guangye just thought with his toes, and knew that if they were allowed to escape, this military operation would definitely be exposed, and they must not be allowed to do so!

It didn't take long for the headquarters to send new instructions, telling them to occupy the border area with Hunan more quickly, and to take the enemy's territory where the bridgehead was established.
It didn't take long for the guards who were chasing the enemy to return, and everyone was covered in blood, and it looked like they had fought fiercely.
"Really, have you killed all the fleeing enemies?" asked Ding Guangye.
"I'm sorry I ran one!" replied the captain.
"What's the matter? Someone can escape from you?" Ding Guangye asked strangely.
"Not to mention, seeing that the last one was also killed by our defense, suddenly a large group of cavalry came to meet him, and we continued to rush forward, and found that it was not their opponent! ”
"Know who they are?"
"Yes, they are Hunan troops, and their clothes and banners are marked. The captain of the guard affirmed.
Interesting! We haven't recruited them yet, but they have sent them to the door! In that case, you're welcome!
So, he said to the captain of the guard, "You have done a good job! Lead the way and find out the lost field!"
Then, he made adjustments in his forces.
He divided the original three regiments into two, one of which was led by the brigade commander, to meet Zhao Zhongxiang, and cooperate with Lao Zhao's original soldiers to solve the problem of the city.
On the other road, two regiments, led by himself, pursued all the way, not only to destroy the Hunan army along the way, but also to take the hot iron and kill into Hunan!
As he hurried, he reported the news to the General Command.
Liuhua was on duty, and immediately approved the plan, and at the same time told him that if he encountered any difficulties, he would report immediately, and the headquarters would arrange support at that time!
Ding Guangye's army changed its route and fell down with the traces of the Hunan army, and Wan Zhizhang's Hongmen banquet was at a critical moment!
When the officers of the garrison heard the call of the commander, they came with gifts, and it must have been the current year, and it was the time to give gifts and make connections.
Some people have already done it, and there is no need to give it again this time, but many people are not to blame, wouldn't it be better to give it one more time?
I haven't done it, but I just have an opportunity, isn't it just ready-made convenience?
As for those who are unwilling to do such things, it is not good to be indifferent.
As a result, everyone has their own hearts, but people come to divide them neatly.
None of them were absent!
Wan Zhizhang and Zhao Zhongxiang fell a big stone in their hearts.
As long as these fierce generals leave their proud soldiers, it is equivalent to a tiger looking for it!
And those proud soldiers have no strong generals, and they are also leaderless and threatened.
It's all in my hub!.
(To be continued......)
