Zhao Fan, the whole army was wiped out?

Moreover, he was also beheaded, and he was beheaded by Emperor Wei's potters?

Hong Xiuquan was shocked and changed color, and the kings of all sizes such as Yang Xiuqing and Wei Changhui were all shocked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

You must know that just a few days ago, Zhao Fan just sent a good news, claiming that he relied on an empty city trick to successfully retire Shi Dakai and protect Chenxian County.

At that time, Hong Xiuquan was still overjoyed, thinking that Zhao Fan was a buried talent, and finally bloomed like gold at a critical moment.

Hong Xiuquan never expected that he had been happy for two days, and Zhao Fan's house was like a flash in the pan, and in a blink of an eye, his original form was revealed, and he ended up with the annihilation of the whole army.

This change was too hasty, so that Hong Xiuquan couldn't breathe at all.

In the midst of the horror, Sima Hui sighed and said: "The old man has already reminded the Heavenly King, that Zhao Fan is a mediocre person, it seems that the empty city plan is just a flash of inspiration for him, he is not the opponent of the pottery thief after all." ”

Sima Hui's sigh also led to a trace of the city wall, and the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom all sighed, and the morale of the people was once again hit by the fall of Zhao Fan.

Hong Xiuquan's face also returned to gloom again, his fist slammed on the city wall, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Zhao Fan, this waste, I should have known that this waste is not worth the task, waste-"

Hong Xiuquan lost his temper there, and the subordinates on the left and right did not dare to squeak, for fear of crashing into the muzzle of the gun, and on the entire city tower, only Hong Xiuquan's chattering and scolding were heard.

"Ahem." Yang Xiuqing really couldn't look down on it, so he coughed a few times and reminded: "Victory or defeat is a common thing for soldiers, it's just a matter of folding a Zhao Fan and a mere 5,000 soldiers and horses, don't be too angry." ”

Hong Xiuquan's mind suddenly sobered up, and he realized that he was so angry in front of all the soldiers, which really damaged the dignity and prestige of the Heavenly King.

Thinking of this, Hong Xiuquan immediately stopped, and in a blink of an eye, he regained his majestic expression, and snorted coldly: "The king of the east is reasonable, Zhao Fan is just an incompetent person, it is not a pity to die, I have successfully retreated to Qujiang Pass now, even if the pottery thief has a million troops to kill, what am I afraid of!" ”

Hong Xiuquan forcibly calmed down the anger, so he pretended to be calm, and ordered to continue to collect the defeated soldiers, strengthen the city defense of Qujiang Pass, and wait for the pottery merchant to kill, so that he could break the halberd under the city.

……

A few days later, the potter led an army of 100,000 to the front of the Qujiang Pass.

The 100,000-strong army has seven or eight companies in the battalion, the battle flag covers the sky, and the camp is lined up, forming a trend of forcing the pass.

The army of potters approached the city, but they did not immediately launch an attack on Qujiang Pass.

In the previous battle of Chenxian, although he annihilated Zhao Fan's 5,000 troops, Deng Ai's plan to empty the city did have a delaying effect, and won Hong Xiuquan a few days of precious retreat time.

It was in these few days that Hong Xiuquan not only successfully withdrew from Qujiang Pass, but also collected most of the defeated troops, and the number of Taiping troops gathered on Qujiang Pass at this moment has reached 80,000.

It is obviously unrealistic for the potters to think of an army of 100,000 and break through a Xiongguan defended by 80,000 soldiers and horses.

What's more, although this Qujiang Pass is far less famous than Tongguan Yangping Pass, but Yang Xiuqing is also a far-sighted person, after capturing the Guancheng, he proposed to Hong Xiuquan to vigorously strengthen the Guancheng in case of emergency.

So Hong Xiuquan used about 30,000 laborers and spent nearly half a year to build and strengthen the Guancheng, and now that the Guancheng has just been built, he withdrew back, which happened to come in handy.

Today, the city that stands in front of the potter's eyes, the city is as high as three zhang high, and the thickness is also up to two zhang, even if the dragon rage breaks the city hammer, it may not be able to shake it.

Moreover, the east side of this Guancheng is a dangerous peak, the west wing is Qinshui, and the Guancheng stands between the vicious waters and dangerous mountains, occupying the geographical advantages and dangers.

In such a majestic pass, the potter wants to be tough and tough, but he can only fall into the arms of Hong Xiuquan.

Therefore, the pottery merchant soldiers came to the city to send troops, but only set up camp, and did not blindly launch a strong attack, so as not to damage the lives of the soldiers in vain.

The fact that there was no offensive in force did not mean that the potters did not take the offensive in other areas.

At dusk that day, the doors of the camps were wide open, and tens of thousands of Wei soldiers all came out of the camps, lined up and waited, posing as if they were about to attack the city.

After Hong Xiuquan received the news, he naturally did not dare to underestimate it, and immediately ordered all the troops to go to the city and prepare for the battle.

When the remnant sun was slanting westward, the 80,000 Taiping troops had already crowded along the front line of the city, and with nervousness, they looked at the overwhelming formation of the Wei army in front of the pass.

Suddenly, Hong Xiuquan also climbed to the top of the city, and looked solemnly at the Wei army in front of the city, and after a few glances, the corners of his mouth raised a sarcastic sneer.

"The pottery thief is really arrogant to the point of ridiculousness, he was lucky to win with Ma Chao's Xiliang cavalry, he really thought that he was invincible in the world, just with this little force, he wanted to capture my Qujiang Pass, joke, what a big joke, haha-"

Hong Xiuquan's contemptuous and disdainful laughter echoed in the city.

Yang Xiuqing also sneered confidently: "The cavalry of the pottery thief is useless, his infantry army is not our opponent at all, he still wants to attack, it is really self-inflicted, if he dares to attack, I will kill him today, and I will be ashamed of our army's previous defeat." ”

The King of Heaven and the King of the East were so confident, and the fighting spirit of the Taiping army at the head of the city was naturally greatly encouraged, and they were vaguely about to return to their original fanatical state for a while.

Sima Hui was not so optimistic, looking at the Wei army in front of the city from afar, and muttered: "I'm afraid that the pottery thief is not so stupid, and he will let his soldiers come to die in vain......

Sima Hui's voice was drowned out in the arrogant mockery of Hong Xiuquan and his courtiers.

In front of the city, three hundred steps, the Wei army is in the middle army.

This time, the potter didn't even take a sword, but only played with the horsewhip in his hand, and looked at the city with a playful gaze.

He seemed to have heard enough to hear Hong Xiuquan's mocking laughter, and he could also see Hong Xiuquan's impatient face, how he was eagerly waiting for his order to attack the city, so as to hit him.

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, the danger of this Qujiang Pass is not inferior to that of Tongguan, and our army is only one or two thousand more than the enemy. Qin Qiong's temperament is straightforward.

"That, Your Majesty, I have to say that what Qin Fu said this time still makes some sense." Wei Chigong also rarely stood on Qin Qiong's side, and persuaded: "Otherwise, let's wait, at least when the dragon fury arrives, it's not too late to tackle the problem." ”

Chang Yuchun and Mu Guiying also looked at the potter, although they didn't say it explicitly, but the look in their eyes was obviously seconding the proposal of the god duo.

"Who said I was going to forcibly attack the problem." The potter sneered.

Mu Guiying and the others were all stunned, and looked at the potters suspiciously, all thinking about what the Son of Heaven meant by this, since he didn't plan to forcibly attack the problem, why did he move the army and gather so many soldiers and horses to battle in front of the pass.

Could it be that it is just to show off force to the Taiping army?

If this is the case, the brainwashed fanatical believers of the Taiping Army, with this level of formation, are obviously not enough to deter them.

Under the suspicious gaze of everyone, the potter said: "I put on this position today, just to disgust the thief once. ”

Disgusting flood thief.

Before the generals could react, the potter's eyes had already glanced at Shi Dakai, and he waved his hand and said, "Dakai, go, it's time for you to come out and do your best to wake up those soldiers who were deceived by Hong Xiuquan." ”

"Ministers." Shi Dakai did not hesitate, galloped out of the horse, and rode straight to the north gate of Qujiang Pass.

Mu Guiying and other generals suddenly realized that the true purpose of the pottery merchant was to use Shi Dakai, who was once the king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, to deal a heavy blow to Hong Xiuquan and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom spiritually.

Under the watchful eye, Shi Dakai rode out of the battle alone, and in a blink of an eye, he had rushed to the front of Qujiang Pass.

Shi Da Kai took fifty steps forward, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Shi Dakai, the minister of Great Wei, is here, where is the traitor Hong Xiuquan!" ”

Shi Dakai's appearance had already caused an uproar among the Taiping Army holy soldiers at the head of the city, and he so openly called Hong Xiuquan a "traitor", which immediately caused an uproar.

With a pair of surprised eyes, they all turned around to the center of the tower, turning to their great Heavenly King.

Shi Dakai, that is the founding king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the existence of the first general, surrendered to the Wei army, and it was just a blow to fight back, and now, he personally appeared in front of Guancheng, in front of so many old colleagues, openly reprimanded Hong Xiuquan as a "traitor".

In an instant, Hong Xiuquan's incomparably sacred, lofty and great image was like a holy mirror, which was smashed and cracked by Shi Dakai's fierce punch, and there were signs of shattering.

At this moment, Hong Xiuquan's fists were already clenched and clicked, his teeth were clenched, his face was about to bleed, and his two eyeballs were about to explode.

Hong Xiuquan, who was extremely angry, roared and scolded in front of the city: "Shi Dakai, you traitor to the heavenly kingdom, a shameless person, and you dare to face your brothers and sisters in the heavenly kingdom, and dare to commit Yu me, aren't you afraid that the Yellow Heaven God will be angry and rain down a heavenly thunder to smash you, a shameless traitor!" ”

Hong Xiuquan's angry roar echoed along the front line of the city, and the Taiping soldiers on the left and right immediately responded in groups, and then scolded Shi Dakai.

Shi Dakai didn't feel a trace of guilt, took another breath, and shouted: "Brothers of the Taiping Army, listen to my Shi Dakai's words!" ”

Shi Dakai's martial arts are profound, and this roar is a heavy dantian, and the sound is like thunder, overwhelming the shouts of tens of thousands of Taiping troops.

Along the front line of the city, all the Taiping troops were shocked, and subconsciously stopped shouting.

Shi Dakai said loudly: "Brothers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, you have all been deceived by Hong Xiuquan, he is not a god of the Yellow Heaven at all, it is just a trick he pretends to be a god and uses to deceive and bewitch you, in order to trick you into joining the Taiping Army and working for his emperor's ambitions!" ”

As soon as these words came out, along the front line of the city, there was another uproar, and a pair of stunned eyes gathered again towards their Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan.

This time, for the first time, there was a look of doubt in the eyes of these soldiers of the Taiping Army.

Although these lower-level Taiping soldiers are ignorant and ignorant, it does not mean that they are really like animals, without the slightest IQ and no judgment.

In their hearts, there were also doubts, wondering if Hong Xiuquan was lying to them, and whether he was really Huang Tianxia.

It's just that those princes, those generals, and those officials brainwashed them again and again, telling them that the king of heaven is the Yellow Heaven and the earth, and telling them that only by believing in the Taiping Religion can they live a peaceful and happy life in the world.

At this moment, Shi Dakai, the former king of the West of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, is a god-like existence......

Such a once high-ranking figure, but told them that the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan was a liar, and all the yellow heaven and the holy cause of the heavenly kingdom were all bullshit and deception, how could this not shock them and shake their faith.

"Shi Dakai, you traitor, you traitor-"

Hong Xiu was so angry that his blood was surging, his eyes were about to explode, his voice trembled to the point of hoarseness, and he didn't know how to reprimand Shi Dakai.
