"Beat the landlord and scared away the Hunan army and the Huai army, this is too nonsense. Secretary Shen, how did you figure it out? Lei Hu publicly raised his questions at the April 2 meeting.

The comrades of the Party Committee of the Lianghu Corps were also extremely surprised by Shen Xin's success. At first, Shen Xin proposed to go to the countryside to solve the problem of the landlords and gentry first, for the purpose of conscription. The purpose of recruiting troops is not to expect these Huainan troops to fight any tough battles, and it would be good if the newly recruited people could not stab Lou Zi. The purpose of the conscription was to re-establish the local ties between the Liberation Army and Huainan as much as possible. Seven years after leaving Huainan, no matter how good the relationship was, it was still cool at this time.

Moreover, the Liberation Army was not a seven-year-old army, and more than half of the comrades in the army at that time were Huainan people, so it can be said that the troops at that time were Huainan local troops. After years of expansion, as well as internal elimination. The Liberation Army became a coalition army with Liangguang and Hunan people as the main force. Therefore, Shen Xin proposed, "Even if it is a little delayed, we must let the people have the feeling of flesh and blood connection with our troops before." ”

Everyone agrees with this viewpoint, and there are still about 10,000 Anhui comrades in the army, but the problem is that most of the Anhui comrades are fighting in other provinces, and less than 1,000 have actually returned to Anhui. Therefore, the army is ready to recruit 10,000 to 20,000 Huainan recruits in the short term. Mix them up with the troops and garrison them in various cities.

The people of Huainan, who were counterattacked by the big landlords, enthusiastically joined the army, and nearly 40,000 people were recruited in less than a month. As soon as the troops were recruited, the Huai army of the Hunan army retreated from Luzhou to Fengyang. The Qing army fled far away, and the task of the Lianghu Corps became to deal with the Taiping army. If you can't rush to the north, you can't rush to the north.

Shen Xin was stopped by Lei Hu's question, originally the troops felt that the Hunan army and the Huai army still had 100,000 troops, so the troops were ready to force the Hunan army and the Huai army into the city through the field battle first, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop. After thinking for a while, Shen Xin replied: "Zeng Guofan and Jiang Zhongyuan are very cunning. These two men are the great enemies of our army. ”

After the enemy was scared away, he was praised by Shen Xin. After the comrades of the party committee burst into laughter, they all agreed with Shen Xin's judgment. Correctly understand oneself and the enemy. This is the reason why the Liberation Army will win every battle. And every time they fail to correctly understand themselves and the enemy, the Liberation Army will suffer. If Zeng Guofan and Jiang Zhongyuan could hear the results of the discussion at the Liberation Army meeting, they would only be afraid that they would not be wronged by their defeat.

Throughout March, the Qing army continued to retreat in front of the Guangfu army, and the Taiping army also continued to retreat. Lin Fengxiang and others built defensive positions outside the city, but they did not provoke the Guangfu Army at all. The upper echelons of the Guangfu Army had a good impression of Lin Fengxiang, Wei Ze did not order a military settlement, and everyone did not take the initiative to take action against Lin Fengxiang.

And Li Xiucheng and Li Shixian on the East Road also led their troops to retreat all the way. After the Liberation Army entered Shanghai, they even abandoned Suzhou and retreated to Zhenjiang. At this time, the two sides confronted each other in Zhenjiang, because the two sides were also very restrained, and the battle did not start.

At this time, as long as you don't want to fight and want to get dizzy, you can see that the Taiping army also has no intention of fighting. Wei Ze has sent someone to inform Hong Xiuquan again that if Hong Xiuquan is willing to go to Shaanxi, the Guangfu Army will not only get out of the way, but will also send troops to open the way for them, and even provide them with a certain amount of food and weapons assistance.

After discussing the retreat of the Hunan army and the Huai army, Lei Hu naturally talked about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in Tianjing City, and he asked, "Will Hong Xiuquan really retreat?" ”

From the perspective of the Guangfu Army, for Hong Xiuquan's Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Guangfu Army gave the way to policy. However, from Hong Xiuquan's point of view, he would never think that he was treated preferentially. Now the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom still has 300,000 troops. There are at most 100,000 people in it who can really fight and carry out expeditions. Moreover, the difficulty of marching thousands of miles into the northwest is not ordinary.

At that time, Wei Ze was not unable to march into the northwest, but Wei Ze still chose to fight back to Liangguang killed by the Taiping army. The expedition that the Liberation Army still does not dare to challenge, does Hong Xiuquan really dare to challenge? No one dared to answer.

At this time, in the Tianjing City, King Hong Tianwang swore to the civil and military forces above the court, "The Heavenly Father will send the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to kill Wei Ze and defend the Tianjing City!" ”

It's not the first time that Sect Master Hong has performed like a god like this, and no one among the civil and military people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom really believes this. Listening to Sect Leader Hong's hoarse shouting, Zhang Yingchen couldn't help but think in his heart that Yang Xiuqing was possessed by Heavenly Father, and Wei Ze was Yang Xiuqing's subordinate. Therefore, the "Heavenly Father" did send heavenly soldiers and generals to Tianjing City. After Hong Xiuquan killed "Heavenly Father Yang Xiuqing", how could Heavenly Father admit it? You have to get revenge.

But Zhang Yingchen could only think about it by himself, and he had to suppress the urge to laugh when he thought about it, which made Zhang Yingchen feel very hard. So Zhang Yingchen put this reasonable imagination behind him first, and he considered a more realistic question, "Has Lin Fengxiang arranged things well?" ”

Just when Zhang Yingchen was thinking about this problem, someone suddenly came in from outside to report, "Heavenly King, there is a brother sent by the king!" ”

"Huh?" Everyone in the court was stunned. Ask Wang Li Kaifang to defend Luzhou, and there will be no news after the fall of Luzhou. Half a year later, there was suddenly someone who asked Wang Li Kaifang to send him, which is too incredible.

Hong Xiuquan was also stunned, he thought for a moment, and ordered: "Bring it in!" ”

It was Li Shouyi who came in, and many people had an impression of him. Li Shouyi was a military commander under Li Kaifang. Seeing Hong Xiuquan, Li Shouyi immediately knelt down, "Heavenly King, please lead the king to Shaanxi, at this time he has entered the Shaanxi territory." We saw that there were no people along the way, so we asked the king to send me back to report to the king, and I hope that the king can send troops to meet him. ”

After hearing this, the civil and military personnel immediately felt that this was unreliable, and the timing was too nonsense. But it's such nonsense, and no one has come out to oppose it. Even King An Hong Renfa and Fu King Hong Renda just blinked their eyes, and their throats squirmed up and down. Obviously, the words came to his lips, but he just held back his words.

Zhang Yingchen was worried in his heart. Lin Fengxiang, Li Xiucheng, Yang Fuqing, Chen Yucheng, as well as Ji Wenyuan and Zeng Lichang in Yangzhou, have already held meetings. Everyone thinks that they can't wait for death in Tianjing City at this time. If Wei Ze can fulfill his promise and give a lot of support to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it is not unacceptable to go to the northwest.

But this method of operation is too outrageous. Sending such a person to report the unreliable news that the king of heaven is not a three-year-old child, and can be deceived like this.

But after Li Shouyi finished speaking, he actually took out a concerto, and Hong Xiuquan took it and looked at it for a while, especially the part with the seal carefully read and looked. His female official took the seal of the king to compare, but in the end, he didn't immediately say that Li Shouyi was talking nonsense.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yingchen was shocked, is this true? Could it be that the king did not die in battle, but ran to the northwest? R1058
