Li Guolou incorporated Cheng Laosi and his gang who ran down from Scorpion Ridge, and Cheng Laosi and his gang were kind to the thirty-four rebels who returned to Shun, and asked Cheng Laosi about the situation of Ma Zhankui's department, and got the strength of the rebel army in Luoda Township, and had confidence in the victorious army's lack of fighting spirit, and decided to continue to implement siege tactics for Wang Bianyu in Luoda Township, and led more than 200 rebel troops to continue to implement siege tactics, and the Qing army did not shout to the rebel army in the village, and more than 200 rebels wanted to stubbornly resist the grasshopper and shake the tree, so they let the enemy continue to hold their positions and wait for starvation to death, and the more cruel the battle became, the more cruel the Luo Daxiang rebel army refused to surrender, and he did not need to be captured, and the rebel army in Luoda Township had only a dead end

Thirty or forty rebel soldiers were like beggars, with hateful faces, unshaven beards, torn clothes, and eating together, and the rebels often lived in the wild, and they often did not even dare to light a fire, for fear of being discovered by the Qing army scouts, and they could survive by eating a handful of raw rice and drinking a few sips of stream water

Now eating hot naan cakes and broth, the soldiers of the rebel army are silently crying while eating, and the bitter days have finally come to an end, and they have not eaten broth for a long time

It was not the first time that the Qing army cooks had seen the soldiers of the surrendered rebel army eat their appearances, and they were not surprised, and they earnestly taught: "You have not seen meat for a long time, you can only eat a piece of meat naan, and you can only eat a piece of naan, otherwise your stomach will not be able to stand it, you will die of flatulence, and after two days, please eat the full banquet of the Manchu Han Dynasty, hehehehe."

"Oh, sir, do you still have meat to eat at night," surrendered, a little soldier touched his stomach, feeling more hungry than when he didn't eat, smacking a few times, fragrant and sweet, his lips were still unfinished, and the aftertaste remained on his lips

The Qing army cooks smiled and said: "Don't worry, our Li Ziying food Chu army has meat to eat on the first night, and there are ten dates and peanuts at night, don't you eat that kind of peanuts, hehehehe."

Thin, Cheng Laosi and the surrendered soldiers laughed together, laughing so that his teeth were sour, and his mouth couldn't say bitterness, and in just two months, he lost weight from a strong soldier twice, and he not only rebelled, endured mental and physical pressure, overwhelmed people, and struggled with ideas every moment

The Elder Church also worships Guan Gong and advocates the spirit of chivalry and loyalty, Lei Heng actually killed the lord Gao Liansheng Yan'an and pulled the flag to rebel, which is something that many Elder Church members cannot understand, and many Elder Church members think that it is polite and courteous to bomb the camp, and it is the Qing army to pull out a Elder Brotherhood team

The political proposition of "driving out the Tartars and restoring China" is suitable for the needs of the times and can gather the hearts of the soldiers in the world, but Lei Heng personally killed the garrison, Gao Liansheng was the big brother Lei Heng's big defeat when he rebelled, so that many members of the organization loyal to the Brotherhood of Elders did not have the reason to follow Lei Heng, he had no motivation to follow him to the death, he was ungrateful and unjust, the villain did not have the heroes of the rivers and lakes, the noble character was not enough to achieve the great cause, and the surrender of the Qing army did not feel ashamed

Under the hype of the Daqing Mansion Daily, many bigwigs also stood up and spoke to belittle Lei Heng, who was like a slave with the three surnames, how could there be heroes and heroes attached to the grass thieves in the mountains, and they couldn't avoid it when they heard Lei Heng's team passing by, for fear of being exposed to Lei Heng's bad luck

Lei Heng pulled the flag of the Elders' Association to rebel against the Great Northwest, and did not form a one-call situation, Sichuan was still calm and quiet, and the Elders' Association organized a riot, and the Qing court degraded Lei Heng's character to nothing through public opinion, which raised Gao Liansheng's image to the height of Guan Gong, the tragic hero Yan'an was righteous to death, and refused to grovel and surrender, and the Elders' Association would rather die than betray the motherland, and the Qing Dynasty would not betray the Qing Dynasty to death, and Gao Liansheng refused to betray the Tongzhi Emperor, and went to the execution ground with great righteousness

After Gao Liansheng's death, he was buried by the Qing court, and the two sons of the rank of knight, the rank of knight, and the first-class cloud cavalry captain, the world name Mengyin, were also considered to have died, and the vast number of Qing soldiers were brave and loyal

The official position of the Qing Dynasty cannot be hereditary, but the title can be inherited by the son, so for Gao Liansheng's family, the Tongzhi Emperor rewarded the title, which can reflect the court's love for Gao Liansheng's family

Gao Liansheng's death was a major event of historical significance during this period, after which the Brotherhood collapsed, its reputation was completely ruined, and for a long time, the Brotherhood disappeared, and the Jianghu sect no longer carried the banner of the Elder Church to recruit protégés

Under Zuo Zongtang's planning, all the evil deeds in the war area pushed the rebel army to the head and trumpeted the rebel army's poison to the northwest countryside

The Qing army stood on the righteous side, the benevolent and invincible, and the elimination of the Brotherhood rebels was the will of the people, so that the people of all ethnic groups swore to defend the territory of the Qing Dynasty with the same hatred and swear, especially the Tibetan Tusi, and refused to let the Brotherhood army pass through their territory from beginning to end, which made the life of Lei Heng's Diebu County more and more difficult, and the Tusi armed forces could not get along with the Brotherhood rebels, and the militia armed forces also intervened, making the Brotherhood rebels become rats in bellows, and were attacked by armed forces from all sides

Fan Dahui smiled and ran to more than 30 Guishun soldiers, nodded slightly, and said to the soldiers he knew, and his face changed solemnly: "The brothers have all eaten, and you should also move your muscles, Chief Li will not let you fight, but you must always make a contribution on the battlefield, and arrange an errand for you to dig fortifications in the afternoon, Chief Li is not bad, everyone is hungry, everyone has money, and the person who completes the task will give a reward or two in the evening, which is considered a gift for you to return to Shun, you have to work hard to do a good job, Li Ziying will be given priority admission."

"Okay, let's just move our muscles," more than 30 Guishun soldiers were dazzled and laughed, and when they heard that they were digging pits and silver, they all happily took shovels and pickaxes and began to dig ditches in a ridge, looking at thousands of people, working around the village, preparing to trap more than 200 rebels in Luoda Township in the village

Cheng Laosi still can't figure out how many people there are in the Li Zi Battalion, there is also the Li Zi Camp on the Scorpion Ridge, and the Li Zi Camp is afraid that there are four or five thousand people, and Cheng Lao Si is secretly glad that he surrendered, which is a wise move

The tunnel operation is very laborious, and thankless, many fortifications are not of much use, the fields around Luoda Township are dug by the officers and soldiers of the Li Battalion, many tunnels are also filled with water, a trench blocks the Luo Daxiang rebel army, the village wants to establish a blockade line through the Qing army, it will be attacked by Li Ziying with all kinds of weapons, more than 200 rebels want to break out, it is impossible, the blockade line is completed, Wang Bian Yu is difficult to fly

Cheng Laosi saw this spectacular scene and firmly believed that Li Guolou carried out the strategy of encirclement and reinforcements, he looked up in the direction of Scorpion Ridge and guessed whether Lei Heng would send troops to rescue

"Hey, there's going to be a war" Cheng Laosi's mouth is full of flavors, I don't know what to say, this time I actually hope that Lei Heng will come to die, efficiency first, the officers and soldiers of the Li Zi Battalion have even done an excellent job of digging fortifications, this is the work of the people, I saw not far away, Li Guolou actually took the lead in digging a ditch, and it was bare-chested, Li Zi Battalion was ready to fight a night battle, and was also preparing for hand-to-hand combat, the whole army was filled with an atmosphere of forgetting life and death, this army actually did a death squad, Cheng Laosi finally understood that the rumors were false, Li Guolou was not afraid of sacrifice, put life and death behind, and wanted to wash away the shame of the Yan'an Campaign, and fight a battle with outnumbered enemies

The soldiers around glanced at Cheng Laosi with strange eyes, why did he come here without fighting, and the words of the surrender faction were the same as if they didn't say anything

"Soldiers, work harder, we sweat a lot now, and at night we can wait for work at night to repel the invading enemy," Li Guolou went into battle shirtless, and loudly encouraged the soldiers around him to boost morale and let the officers and men of the Li Zi battalion know that danger was imminent, or a tough battle would be fought soon

Lurking in the mountains and forests, the rebel army will come to the rescue in a day or two more than 200 rebel soldiers in Luoda Township, the pocket formation must be firmly established, the officers and soldiers of the Li Zi battalion will be attacked by enemies on both sides, and the Qing army will fight in the fields, and the Qing army will not have any geographical advantage to speak of, digging fortifications to wait for work, and slightly tilting the battlefield advantage to the side of Li Ziying, whether the rebel army can be completely defeated, depends on whether Li Ziqi can make the rebel army tempted

From the mouth of the surrendered rebel army, Li Guolou knew that Li Ziying's rebel army was a soft persimmon in the eyes of the rebel army, and the Yan'an offensive and defensive battle actually achieved Lei Heng's tenacity, and his reputation was unbearable, Li Guolou had no patience to play a circle game with the rebel army, and he wasted energy in the countryside of Diebe County, he must have contributed to the destruction of the rebel army at one time, completely disabled the rebel army, so he didn't eat a piece of meat to his mouth, and only carried out sporadic harassment tactics against the rebel army in Zangluo Township, and used siege tactics to hit the enemy, deliberately let go of Ma Zhankui, dozens of people and horses, just to see if the fish could take the bait

Li Guolou looked up at the sky, the sun began to sink in the west, and the afterglow of the sunset sprinkled the earth with a piece of gold, the mountains and rivers of Luoda Township were enchanting, the green mountains and green waters were idyllic, the pastoral environment was filled with the smell of gunfire, and the smell of gunpowder smoke was lingering, and he muttered to himself: "God bless me not to rain these days."

"Well, I don't think it will rain for the next three days, and then it will depend on the will of heaven," Fan Dahui squinted his eyes and looked at the sunset in the west, as if he knew astronomy and geography

The officers and men of the Li Zi Battalion are afraid that the rain will make the power of the grenade sharply reduced, and the cavalry can not play the speed of the war horse in the muddy field, and the power of the charge will also be greatly reduced

Bartel arranged 500 cavalry on the halfway of Scorpion Ridge, and transported a batch of grain down the mountain, talking to himself, escorting a batch of grain down the mountain, Lehehe, looking at Li Guolou and smirking, it turned out that Li Guolou was a lucky star, and he found an enemy and got a batch of grain, so that Li Ziying had no worries

Li Guolou glanced at his eyes and lowered his voice and said: "Officer Ba Ying, don't be so relaxed, since Scorpion Ridge is the back road of our army, if the war is not favorable, our army only has this way to escape, give me a haircut a few times."

"It's me who will do it again right away, Lord Li, do you have a chance to fight at night, my cavalry has a chance," Bartle looked at the busy crowd under the afterglow, and felt a little lost in his heart, the cavalry is the baby pimple of Li Ziying, and Li Guolou will not use cavalry to fight at the critical moment, which makes him full of enthusiasm, but has no chance to kill the enemy and serve the country

Li Guolou sent him to Scorpion Ridge to guard the guards, but he didn't let him be the commander, how could he and Cheng Kun Batel not know that the Wutang students Su Yuanchun and Li Yunzhu surpassed the school officials and were able to take charge on their own, so Batel was in a hurry to leave the Scorpion Ridge while it was still dark, and expressed to Li Guolou that he wanted to fight

"Don't worry, you are my killer weapon, the balance of victory is on the cavalry battalion, the battle is good, you have a good rest tonight, and there will be a difficult task to be handed over to you next" Li Guolou spoke without leaking a drop of water to appease Battle, who was about to move, he had already seen that Battle was a brave general, suitable for fighting hard, and he knew the advantages and disadvantages of each officer under him, and he knew the strengths and weaknesses of each officer, and he was a qualified commander, and he should have the qualities of a qualified commander, an army needs different types of military talents, Li Guolou does not talk about seniority, seniority, and students can surpass the teacher in order to make the martial arts hall prosperous. Li Yun's arrest was terrifying, and Li Ziying's camp was thriving and talented, and through this training in the great northwest, it cultivated a group of military commanders who were accustomed to conquest

"It's Lord Li, then I'll go back," Battle gave a military salute to Li Guolou, reluctant to glance at the sky over Luo Daxiang, the gunsmoke artillery fired sporadically, it seems that tonight is a battle, and it will not be his turn to fight the cavalry, and there is no hope for the cavalry to go out to get the merits of the war, but Li Guolou's words are comfortable to hear, and Battelle Meizizi walked towards Scorpion Ridge, feeling that the master Li Guolou has never looked at him differently, or it won't be long before the title of President Qian can't escape

"Well, tonight, the enemy will definitely break through, this time the enemy will not directly impact the east and west of the village, must have crossed the river, I don't know if the grenade is wet," Li Guolou looked old and calculating, pointed to the map, so that his subordinates were impressed, no one can match the talent, let Li Ziying win the battle of Luodaxiang, Li Ziying wiped out more than 100 rebels in a small test, and then it will be a life-and-death decisive battle

The warriors were full of hunger for battle, and dusk approached, and the magical rainbow hanging in the sky heralded that the night would be noisy and eerie

The officers of the Li Zi Battalion gathered around Li Guolou to listen to the pre-war arrangement, their resolute faces were full of desire for war, and the officers grew up in battle again and again, shining like that rainbow
