Swaggering through Suzhou, Wei Ze's troops continued north. He had no plans to attack the city along the way, and the weather would only get colder and colder before the Great Cold Season. But Weezer couldn't help it, and at this time he could only march in cold weather.

If you want to go to Shandong, you have to cross the Yellow River, and the goal of Wei Ze's troops is Xuzhou. In New China, Xuzhou and the Yellow River had nothing to do with each other, but in 1854, the Yellow River passed through Xuzhou.

Wei Ze firmly believed that Jiang Guangtou was the reincarnation of Du Chong in the Song Dynasty, and in the second year of Jianyan in the Southern Song Dynasty (1128), in order to defend the Jin soldiers from going south, Du Chong, the defender of Tokyo, artificially broke the embankment of the Yellow River in Huazhou, causing the Yellow River to be diverted to the southeast from Surabaya and Jishui into the sea. The Yellow River then flows from the Bohai Sea in the north to the Yellow Sea in the south. In the middle is the flood is innumerable, until the late Ming Dynasty after Pan Ji tamed the river, the Yellow River was basically fixed in Kaifeng, Lankao, Shangqiu, Dangshan, Xuzhou, Suqian, Huaiyin line, water for 3oo years.

Wei Ze also advanced his troops to the front line of the Huai River, and realized that a considerable part of his old geographical knowledge was useless. He thought that if he wanted to cross the Yellow River, he would have to go to the northeastern part of Henan and Shandong. What he didn't expect was that it wouldn't take long for him to cross the Yellow River after crossing the Huai River now. To the north of the Yellow River is the vast plain area, where the troops can gallop almost unchecked.

The local regimental trainers were still brave enough to get close to Weese's troops, but they were only able to get close. After the artillery fired and fired shells into the regimental training team, the regimental training armament immediately collapsed. Then the twisting army came in handy, and the cavalry caught up and slashed and killed, and the regimental training was basically a situation where the whole army was wiped out.

Among the many regimental exercises, the cavalry led by Wen Yuewei was quite eye-catching. Wei Ze even personally saw Wen Yuewei's brave posture of prancing horse and slashing the group.

The troops arrived in Xuzhou around January 2o. Wei Ze had seen the modern Yellow River embankment, and the magnificent embankment had no possibility of bursting. Even if it was the so-called hanging river on the ground, Wei Ze didn't think there was any problem.

However, after arriving in Xuzhou, Wei Ze understood what the Hanging River was. From a distance, you can see a somewhat towering embankment against the Xuzhou city wall. And under this embankment is Xuzhou City.

Although the Qing army in Xuzhou was small in number, they bravely defended outside the city. Or that one of the main objects of their defense is the Yellow River embankment. Wei Ze doesn't want to let go of Xuzhou, which is far more prosperous than Suzhou. The canal pointed out that Xuzhou's grain and other materials would never be burned.

"Chief of the General Staff, the Qing army is at war with us!"

"Chief of the General Staff, we have begun shelling!"

"Chief of the General Staff, the Qing army has retreated from the embankment!"

The battle to attack the embankment was easy, and the Yellow River embankment, which was close to the Xuzhou city wall, was more than a zhang higher than the Xuzhou city wall battlement. Weizer's troops set up artillery on the embankment and condescendingly inflicted heavy blows on the Qing troops on the city walls. The gunners and musketeers faced the Qing army, which had no place to hide at the head of the city, as easily as a whack-a-mole. Under the cover of the firing point on the embankment, Weese's troops seized the city wall along the way.

"Send someone to sue them! Send 10,000 catties of gunpowder and 5,000 stone of grain. I'll wait until I don't attack the city! Weeser gave an order to the people below.

Xuzhou is a big city, if the Twist Army starts looting here, the harvest will definitely not be small, and it will not be a good thing to go north with so many looted materials.

The Qing troops in the city also seemed to know that the matter was at a critical juncture, and they immediately agreed to Wei Ze's request. Xuzhou is not only an important ferry port, but also a place where grain gathers. Now that the Taiping army has captured the embankment and the city wall, it is very easy to capture Xuzhou City. The prefect of Xuzhou can't manage so much at this time, if Wei Ze captures Xuzhou City, he will naturally be finished. If Wei Ze can be defeated, this "collaborator" can be suppressed.

The two sides reached an agreement that Wei Ze would withdraw from the city wall after giving gunpowder first, and after 10,000 catties of gunpowder were delivered, Wei Ze immediately withdrew the city wall. The Qing army hired a man to send 5,000 stone of grain to the Yellow River crossing, and the Yellow River was basically dried up at this time. After erecting the pontoon bridge, it took less than two days for Wei Ze's 20,000 troops to cross the Yellow River.

Standing north of the Yellow River, Wei Ze had mixed feelings in his heart. The depressed anger in his heart condensed, and Wei Ze suddenly asked someone to bring a pen and wrote eight ugly characters on the wall of the ferry station: "The old road of the Yellow River, the vicissitudes of the sea." ”

Many years later, the guys who wrote biographies and made movies for Wei Ze would deliberately save the plot, especially the biographers who supported Wei Ze wrote in a tone full of admiration: The saint wrote "The old road of the Yellow River, the vicissitudes of the sea" at the Yellow River ferry in Xuzhou, and no one knew why, and the saint did not say anything about it. In the next year, the Yellow River was diverted to the north at the Tongwaxiang Junction in Lanyang, Henan, and changed from entering the Yellow Sea to the Bohai Sea. The theory of celestial induction......
