Chapter 936: The Enemy Shocks
"How can this be, how can this be, how can my brother Wang be defeated, he is the Yellow Heaven God, how can he be defeated?"
Hong Xuanjiao was so shocked that she was incoherent, and her mouth was full of surprise, unable to believe the cruel truth in front of her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sima Hui was the first to come back to his senses, and hurriedly reminded: "General Hong, don't open the camp gate quickly and let the Heavenly King in." ”
Hong Xuanjiao woke up at this time, and was anxious to order the soldiers to open the camp gate quickly.
The gate opened, Hong Xiuquan fled for the first time, Yang Xiuqing and Wei Changhui followed, and then tens of thousands of defeated soldiers of the Taiping army rushed to the camp.
"Brother Wang, what the hell is going on, we can't be defeated, right?" Hong Xuanjiao couldn't wait to ask, until now, she was unwilling to accept the facts.
Hong Xiuquan's face was gloomy as iron, and a little shame flashed between his eyebrows, and he didn't know how to explain to his sister-in-law, so he only glared at Yang Xiuqing complainingly.
Yang Xiuqing was angry and scolded: "Our army was supposed to win this battle, who would have thought that the loyal king would dare to retreat from the battle, ruining my overall layout, and causing a complete rout of our army, it is all Li Xiucheng's fault!" ”
At this time, the defeated Li Xiucheng also rushed to the camp, and when he saw Hong Xiuquan, he hurriedly turned over and dismounted and came to meet him.
It's just that before he could kneel, Yang Xiuqing had already taken the lead and reprimanded angrily: "Li Xiucheng, you are so bold, you dare to retreat without authorization, causing the army to collapse, and suffer such a big defeat, what should you be guilty of!" ”
Hong Xiuqing was even more angry, and shouted angrily: "Li Xiucheng, you dare to disobey my will, you can't rebel if you want to!" ”
"The king of heaven is angry, the king of heaven is angry." Li Xiucheng wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly defended himself: "Chen Wan didn't expect that the Wei Demon Tortoiseshell Shield Array and spear spear light cavalry were so powerful, and the Minister's shield array was not his opponent at all. ”
Yang Xiuqing reprimanded: "Even if the enemy rides well, you don't have the order of the Son of Heaven, how dare you retreat, if you can hold on, even if the whole army is annihilated, you can buy enough time for our army to attack the camp, and when the enemy camp is broken, even if your 40,000 soldiers and horses are wiped out, what does it matter, Li Xiucheng, you have to defend your cowardice!" ”
After that, Yang Xiuqing bowed his hand to Hong Xiuquan, and said with a straight face: "Heavenly King, this warlord has a careful layout, and he could have won, but it is because of Li Xiucheng's timidity that he lost everything, and the victory turned into defeat, this Li Xiucheng is a sinner in my heavenly kingdom, please order him to be executed, in order to correct the holy law of my heavenly kingdom!" ”
Li Xiucheng looked shocked, and a deep fear suddenly appeared on his face, but because he had indeed disobeyed the order, he felt guilty, so he had to bow down deeply in front of Hong Xiuquan, silently, and wait for disposal.
Hong Xiuquan was angry, and hesitated for a while, not knowing whether to put Li Xiucheng to death.
And in this moment's effort, Sima Hui had already learned the true process of the battlefield from the defeated soldiers, and only then did he know that the Wei army had actually sent such a magical Xiliang iron cavalry.
Sima Hui coughed a few times and persuaded: "Heavenly King, although King Zhong is guilty, but the cavalry of the Wei army is indeed unexpected, and King Zhong is also forced to retreat without authorization, it is excusable, the crime will not lead to death, please be gracious to the King of Heaven." ”
"No way!"
Yang Xiuqing categorically rejected Sima Hui, and said solemnly: "In the past, Shi Dakai did not obey the order, and the King of Heaven has already fallen lightly, and now there is Li Xiucheng who disobeyed the holy order and fatally suffered this defeat of our army, if the King of Heaven does not sentence him to death, how can he convince the brothers and sisters of the Heavenly Kingdom, Li Xiucheng must be killed!" ”
Hong Xiu's whole body shook violently, and the murderous intent in his eyes suddenly rose.
He was murderous!
At this moment, Xiao Chaogui outside the camp gate fled into the camp and exclaimed: "Heavenly King, the big thing is not good, the Wing King failed to break through and was captured alive by Wei Demon." ”

Hong Xiu's whole body trembled again, and he felt a thunderbolt from a sunny day, which struck his head fiercely, instantly slashing him until he was dizzy, and he was almost about to faint on the spot.
Yang Xiuqing, Wei Changhui, Hong Xuanjiao and other high-ranking people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom all changed their expressions.
And those defeated Taiping soldiers were already panicked, but after hearing this amazing news, they were even more mentally traumatized, and they were in an uproar for a while.
That's Shi Dakai, the strongest general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, a god-like existence, but now he was captured alive by the Wei army!
This incredible news could not be a heavy blow to the Taiping army, and their already low soldiers were hit to the bottom in an instant.
"The Wing King, he actually, unexpectedly-" Hong Xiuquan, who was in shock, gritted his teeth, shocked and angry, and had completely lost his proportion.
And when he fell into shock, in the north direction, the dust rushed into the sky, the sound of killing collapsed, and 100,000 elite soldiers of the Wei State Infantry Cavalry were already chasing after him like a tide, and they were about to enter the camp.
Hong Xiuquan's angry expression immediately became extremely panicked, looking around at the panicked soldiers, how could he hold the camp with the morale that had fallen to the bottom now.
And the kings on the left and right, including the resourceful Yang Xiuqing, were also a little out of proportion for a while, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
At such a critical moment, Sima Hui became the most calm and calm person.
He took a step forward and said lightly: "Heavenly King, now that our army has suffered a big defeat, morale has fallen to the bottom, and we will never be able to fight again, this Linxiang City will not be able to take it down, the only way to do this is to immediately withdraw the siege of Linxiang, pack up the defeated troops and retreat to Guiyang County in the south, preserve the strength and then make plans, as for the ...... of King Zhong."
Sima Hui coughed lightly and persuaded: "Although King Zhong is guilty, but now that King Yi has been captured, my Heavenly Kingdom has lost a general, and when this time is employed, it is better to give King Zhong a chance to make meritorious contributions." ”
Sima Hui's series of persuasions made Hong Xiuquan wake up from shock and panic as if from a dream, and the previous anger disappeared.
He glanced at Yang Xiuqing, the Eastern King of the Heavenly Kingdom, who had previously insisted on opposing the resistance and would coldly declare that even if he fought to the last man, he would never retreat, and at this moment, he was like an eggplant beaten by frost, and he no longer shouted that he would fight to the death and not retreat.
"Heavenly King, without further ado, it will be too late for the enemy army to arrive." Xu Shu couldn't help but urge.
Hong Xiuquan's last trace of so-called pride was drunk away by Xu Shu, his eyes were panicked, and he shouted hoarsely: "Retreat, order the whole army, abandon the siege of Linxiang and retreat to Guiyang County-"
Before he could finish his sentence, he had already turned over his horse first, whipped his horsewhip desperately, and fled wildly towards the south.
Yang Xiuqing didn't care about targeting Li Xiucheng anymore, glared at Li Xiucheng fiercely, and hurriedly turned over and fled south.
The rest of the kings, such as Wei Changhui and Xiao Chaogui, also fled one after another.
"Brother Wang is a mortal under the Yellow River, how can you lose to that Tao Demon, Li Xiucheng, it's all your fault!" Hong Xuanjiao glared at Li Xiucheng resentfully, and then rode away.
Li Xiucheng was ashamed, but he saved his life, and Hong Xuanjiao's reprimand on the other side could only swallow his anger.
"King Zhong, this place should not stay for a long time, let's evacuate quickly." Sima Hui didn't have the slightest sense of reproaching him, and helped him up with his own hands.
Li Xiucheng stood up and arched his hand gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. for your words to save your life, Xiucheng will remember it." ”
Sima Hui waved his hand and sighed: "Now that the Wing King has been captured, the only real general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who can fight is the Loyal King. ”
The word "pillar" made Li Xiucheng's heart warm, and he looked at Sima Hui gratefully, never expected that this Mr. Shuijing could value himself so much.
In the end, Li Xiucheng could only shake his head and sigh, helped Sima Hui onto the war horse, and arranged for the soldiers to escort him south.
The war horses were speeding up, Sima Hui looked back to the north, looking at the rolling Wei army frenzy, looking at the Wei Emperor Banner that was showing off his might, he seemed to be able to see how the pottery merchants were galloping with high spirits, leading 100,000 Wei troops to chase after them.
"Potter, I didn't expect you to be so strong, no wonder my two students joined forces, they are not your opponents, it seems that from now on, the old man has to show his real ability to deal with you......"
In addition to sighing, Sima Hui's old eyes burst out with a trace of cold killing intent for the first time in his life.
Then, he turned around and whipped his horse, and ran south with the defeated soldiers of the Taiping army, never to look back.
After this battle, Hong Xiuquan's 170,000 troops in the camp, lost more than half, and did not dare to stay for half a minute, and after the defeated army joined tens of thousands of besieging troops, they fled all the way along Xiangshui to Guiyang County like a frightened flock.
The potter led the victorious army, easily razed the enemy camp, broke through the enemy camp outside Linxiang, and the troops reached the city of Linxiang.
At this moment, Linxiang City, which had been besieged for several months, finally came out.
Nearly dusk, thousands of militia and defenders crowded on the city wall to witness the spectacular scene of the Taiping army's defeat and escape.
Looking at the Taiping soldiers who had surrounded them for months and flaunted their might outside the city every day, they fled from the camp outside the city in embarrassment......
Seeing the imperial banner of Great Wei appear in the field of vision, countless iron horsemen of their own army chased after them from the north......
Looking at the banner of the Son of Heaven, he appeared outside the North Gate City, in front of the King's Landing......
At the head of the city, the soldiers and civilians of Linxiang City, who had been guarding for several months, all shouted with joy and were so excited that they burst into tears, and the cry of "Long live the Great Wei" resounded over the city.
Before the last remnant sun set in the west, the pottery merchant rode his horse and arrived at the north gate of Linxiang City.
The gates of the city had already been opened, and countless soldiers and civilians knelt outside the gates, as if to welcome the savior, kneeling to welcome the arrival of the potters.
In front, a young official stepped forward in a few steps, knelt down in front of the potter, and arched his hand: "Minister Zhang Xun, the lieutenant of Xiang County, meet Your Majesty!" ”
