Chapter 503: No One Is a Good Bird

Rumble. Rumble. Rumble.

A strong fortress was destroyed by the Qing army. Bloody Hui soldiers leaned against the crumbling stone wall. They still have courage. There is also hope for victory. Be sure to fight until the last moment of your life. The banner of the eagle is firmly 'planted' on the head of the city. The Flying Eagle Battle Flag is already burning. It is a symbol of the Muslim independence movement. An unstoppable flow of historical 'tides'.

The Qing army holding high the military flag charged into battle. Shouts of killing abounded. The Qing army spread all over the mountains greeted the baptism of blood and fire. The valiant Hui soldiers rushed to the front. But now they are holding high the snow-capped mountain lion flag. Proven by practical actions. They are the bravest fighters.

The big blade is revealed. Chop to your former compatriots. Flesh and blood are woven together. In the smoke of gunpowder. Only kill kill kill. Real picture. True cruelty. unimaginably cruel. Raze to raze. in this land. It is vividly embodied. A brave and simple people. In the end, it split into two opposing factions. Compatriots who are on fire and water are fighting for survival. Who's right and who's wrong. It doesn't matter already.

Heroes are all in love. A national catastrophe has brought men to the sky. Push to the stage of history.

History remembers this moment. Originally unknown people. Shine here. Leaving behind a stinking reputation that has been left for thousands of years. Maybe it's a hero who endures humiliation. More likely to be misunderstood. Different eras. The interpretation is completely different. The ethnic composition is different. It makes these people have mixed reviews.

Heroes, bears, traitors. Former brothers. Compatriots of a nation. Kill heartily here. Never die. How many people died. Contradictions within the nation. There is no need to record it.

The conquest of a small fortress. can boost morale. Originally, there was no 'fine' Qing army to fight the march.' Excited' hugs together. Celebrate your hard-won victory.

Be the first to rush to the fortress. The two Qing armies engaged in bayonet 'hand-to-hand' combat victoriously assembled. An old friend I haven't seen in a long time. We finally met here.

"Haha. It turned out to be you old fox. How are you now?" The traitor Hu Dagui viciously beat another traitor, Hemingtang. I never thought that the hall master of the Elder Brother's Hall would meet here. And it's the captain of the two death squads that are caught between the east and the west.

"Haha. It's not good. Joyfully. Follow the high garrison to fight. Just want to have a good time." Heming Tang put the blood on the big blade. Wipe clean on the corpse. Happiness and revenge. That's the life he wants.

"It's not bad for me to follow Guo Shoubei. Greetings to Yang Dawa on my behalf. Let's meet in Yongyang Mansion City." Hu Dagui saluted the lion flag of the snow mountain with reverence. The wandering wanderer knows that turning back is the shore.

Times are different. No guns, no guns. There are human resources alone. It is impossible to overthrow the Manchu government. Still dormant. Wait for the day when providence changes. There is a drive out of the Tartars. A large number of Han Chinese who revived Chinese thought. Infatuation does not change. Wait for the skyrim to change.

The members of the Church of the Elders were anti-Qing and reasonable. Now the reversal is just as reasonable. Capricious Presbyterian member. Their blood flows with the blood of the Han Chinese. Under the hands of the Hui people, he was discriminated against and treated coldly. I want the Han people who believe in Guan Gong's loyalty and righteousness to be cannon fodder. It is necessary to bind the members of the Brotherhood with the rules of the 'Gate' faction. This is exactly the faith that the Muslims lack. The Hui army can't restrain the behavior of the Han army led by the elder brother. In the end, the Han army also became a cancer in the Hui army. One Han army after another, guarding the fortress, surrendered to the Qing army. It also made the strategic intention of the Hui army's fantasy of letting the Han people and the Han people fight for consumption completely failed.

Do not give the Han army the result of retreating. It's to make these self-proclaimed members of the Brotherhood of Elders unparalleled. Find your own way out. Re-fight for the Qing Dynasty on the front line. Slash the butcher's knife in your hand towards the Hui army.

Deputy marshal Xu Zhanbiao went all the way west. There are capitulationists shouting. Along the way, most of the fortresses guarded by the Han army surrendered and were appeased. And the fortress guarded by the Hui army. It will take a bloody battle to take it. The three-way army is getting closer and closer to Yongyang Mansion City. The flags on the chariot were endless. Xu Zi Shuai Qi shines dazzlingly in the morning light.

Although the battle flag of the Li Zi battalion 'advanced' to the front of the ranks. But those soldiers were not Li Guolou's men. The rebels who are vying to be the first. Forming an advance team. Temporarily carrying the battle flag of the Li Zi battalion. Formed a team of three battalions.

Originally, Guo Baochang didn't want to use these rebels. A mutinous army is reluctant to raise its guns against its former comrades. He was ready to let the newly collected more than 1,000 Han troops and the surrendered more than 300 Hui troops return to Lijiabao to rest and recuperate. But something strange happened. These Han soldiers, on the contrary, were full of hatred for their former comrades. They all expressed their loyalty and courage to show the Qing court that they had really reformed themselves. Turn the gun and aim it at the returning army. It is what they look forward to day and night.

After Guo Baochang held a meeting to study. The request of Hu Dagui, Lei Qigao, and Li Heng was approved. The three armies were temporarily organized into the Li Zi battalion. It is under the management of Li Guolou. Of course, this also has his 'selfish' heart. Three armies are his men. But the military expenses are temporarily borne by Li Guolou for him. To know these surrendered armies. There can be no shortage of military salaries. At first, the Elder Brothers rebelled. Able to pull out armies. It's because of the shortage of money. Let the Qing soldiers not survive. Even when Hu Dagui and others surrendered. The heavy reward is also the money that Guo Baochang borrowed from Li Guolou. Otherwise, his army will not be turned upside down.

Guo Baochang looks like a big boss. In fact, he belongs to the Mianli hidden needle. No one can count him with a small abacus.

Li Guolou had long known the practical difficulties of the Chu army. Able to help a little. Or take it without complaint. The provisions and expenses of these three armies. Li Guolou took over temporarily. Of course, Guo Baochang reported to the deputy marshal Xu Zhanbiao. The salaries of the new three battalions are still applied. Everyone tacitly embezzled. As for the money borrowed from Li Guolou. The state can not pay the army in arrears. Why did he want to return it to Li Guolou. You can use white strips to whip white strips. Let Li Guolou ask the military department for money.

The Qing army knew that Li Ziying was rich. is a newly formed Royal Guard. I have already seen the combat effectiveness of the Li Zi battalion. So these three armies temporarily joined the Li Zi battalion. Show off your might. Think you are a strong army. Don't put other armies in the eyes . And by virtue of the familiarity with the geography near Yongyang Fucheng. Be the first to strike. Break away from the big army. Start sweeping all the way.

Wait until Li Guolou passes through the village on the way. You can only see the broken walls. Not even a single villager who surrendered can be seen." Li Ziying's sweeping' work was completed with 'color'. Commended by Guo Baochang. But let Li Guolou carry the black pot. The mood starts to get low. I regret putting a basin on my head.

But these guys are really useful. With this gang of people to open the way. At night, I could no longer hear the Hui rangers blowing the trombone in the distance. The number of times the Hui guerrillas fired cold guns to disturb the advance of the fighters gradually decreased. The rangers released by this gang are not as cautious as the rangers of the Li Zi Battalion. Rather, a charge is gone. From these Han troops . It can reflect the momentum of daring to fight. At first glance, it is the Lord who does not want to die.

The Qing army originally had a preparatory plan. Prepare for Armageddon in the field with the Hui army. But along the way, he did not meet the large army of the Hui army.

It is very difficult to move a large army on the high slopes of the loess. The Hui army set a trap for the Qing army. Because the Qing army marched cautiously. The ambush battle could not be made. The Hui army was not capable of planning a large-scale campaign. Field operations are too demanding for logistics and transportation. To fight a war is to fight logistics. It looks like two armies are fighting on the front. In fact, it is the logistics and transportation capacity. The advent of thermal weapons. Let personal bravery be at a low point. For logistical support capabilities. But higher and higher.

Fortified fortresses were occupied by the Qing army. It also made the Hui army lose the confidence to fight in the field. The guerrillas were wiped out one by one by the Qing army. The Hui army rangers fell into the trap of the Qing army several times. The Qing army fought in concert with multiple arms. Eliminate some heroes on horseback. The brutality of the Qing army against the Hui people has long been known to all women. The army passed by the 'chicken' dog and did not stay. There is no way to talk about guerrilla tactics without population.

Brutality is also a tactic. A lot of armies take advantage of it. But all are denied. But the Qing army dared to say and do. It has been ruthlessly written down by history. Who called them an army of Manchurians. Yushi is Han Chinese. Be able to record it. Of course, at the risk of death, you have to write about the cruelty of the people.

The Hui army wants to use the people's war. Drag the Qing army into the quagmire of war. But it's useless. The Qing army was too brutal. You don't need the people. Therefore, the Qing army marched better than expected. The loss is minor. Instead, it was replenished with some personnel and supplies. The three-way army marched hand in hand. It's like a fierce tiger pounced on Yongyang Mansion City. The vicious mouth is wide open. The two minions are extremely sharp.

The return army evaded and retreated. Don't dare to take its edge. Frustrate its spirit. The Hui army did not form an effective containment in the field. Then retract the main force back to Yongyang Mansion City. Prepare for a protracted battle with the Qing army to defend the city.

The fifth marshal Chen Lin and the seventh marshal Feng Junfu led more than 20,000 people to defend the Yongyang Mansion City. At this time, the Hui army 'draws' to select soldiers. Roughly up to three 'draws' one.' Females and children over the age of ten are all available soldiers. Desperate and militaristic, regardless of the people's lives. Embark on the road of confrontation with the Qing Dynasty to the end. They are full of confidence in holding the city of Yongyang. There are tens of thousands of soldiers who dare to fight. Han soldiers accounted for only a very small minority. It has long been 'scrambled' after that. Assigned to the Hui Army. There is no hidden danger in returning to the army. Always be ready for a bloody battle with the Qing army.

For the Muslims. Independence is more important than life. Dong Zhiyuan Surrounding Area. They were all swept away by the Hui army and dilapidated. Many poor people who were looted by the Hui army. In the righteousness of the "anti-Qing. Anti-oppression." also took up arms one after another. Join the Muslim uprising.

That's how the rebels expanded their ranks. Most of the people who joined the rebellion were 'forced'. The Manchus used excesses and taxes to 'force' the people to sell their sons and daughters, giving the poor people a reason to rebel. The same rebels put guns to people's heads. Let people rebel. Strong men in the face of reality and the encouragement of clever tongues. The vast majority of people will go down the road of no return to rebellion. A small number of strong men will see an opportunity to escape.

Of course, there are also people who consciously and voluntarily rebel against the ranks. But definitely not more than twenty percent. People have a lazy nature, and people who regard righteousness as more important than life. Only a tiny minority. Otherwise, Guan Gong would not have become Emperor Guan.

People who have plagued China for thousands of years will blow up once and then digest themselves. Kill a group of people. By opening up territory. to push the limits. Thousands of years of Chinese history have been repeated. War is a derivative of human bombing. The Qing Dynasty was due to the progress of the productive forces. The yield of sweet potatoes breaks through the limit. Each acre can reach thousands of catties. Sweet potatoes and potatoes are two high-yielding crops that allow the poor to survive in the face of catastrophes. So it started with the Taiping Rebellion. For more than ten years, the country has been in turmoil and turmoil. But the common people can survive. There was no large-scale famine. If you don't have these two high-yielding crops. It's over early in the morning. Though the poor people are afflicted; Suffering from war and chaos. But it didn't form the starvation that was everywhere at the end of the Ming Dynasty. The grand occasion of all provinces in Hunan.

The kind of common people eat pot pulp to welcome the king. It is the "flower" trick of the Great Qing Dynasty to deceive the world. The same people welcomed the return of the army. Yinglai liberation is also blowing out of the meaning of 'obscenity'. The head of the city changes the banner of the king. The Hui Army, the Elder Rebellion Army, the Wandering Army, and the Qing Army are not good birds. Of course, the Qing army is still good in comparison. Especially the Chu army of Zuo Zongtang's personal commander. To know the relief of the local people. Only the Great Qing Dynasty fǔ will do it.

The return army opened a warehouse and released grain. Just a big sale. If you can't take it away, give it away. Or even burned. Nothing to build back to the army. Destroying all the local facilities. The area occupied by the Qing Dynasty was used as a hunting ground. Name: Grain.

Collecting grain is not harvesting grain for the common people in enemy-occupied areas. Rending is also a kind of grain and grass. Very brutal. Historically, the Liao people called threshing grass.

As long as the common people have something to eat. Who will live with their heads up. The monarch who had been recognized for more than 100 years suddenly became a reactionary. Transform into a rat that everyone shouts and beats. It's that people can't turn a corner. Accept that rebellion is justified. There has to be a process too. Just put in the hard work. Grind an iron pestle into a needle. Slowly, these captured strong men. and become a die-hard nationalist. Cycle. These strong men become veterans. will also join the ranks of catching strong men. That's how the rebels became soldiers of the whole people.

War is all about it. Both the enemy and the enemy want to win. Use all kinds of means. There are vileness, there is malice, there is righteousness, there is inspiration, there is bribery. At most, it's killing. Generally you just need to look at it with one eye. The enemy is mean and shameless. We are, of course, a symbol of justice. War is a killing game. Where did the good guy come from. You can only pluck the eldest son out of the short. Comparatively speaking. Recognition of one side is a symbol of justice. Just look at the results. If you break the casserole and find out. Bloody war. Turn people into murderers. No one is a good bird.

For the five handsome Chen Lin and the seventh handsome Feng Junfu. They are fighting for national independence. They give misery to other peoples. It has been thousands of years. The scars that other nations have branded on them. Hatred for thousands of years. Now it is returned to the former master. This is the nationalist complex. When you want to vent, you can find the root cause from history. It's like the Han people criticize the Manchurians for being exactly the same.

At this national life-and-death juncture. They will never back down. Not to mention will not surrender. The people of Yongyang City. Received the favor of the fifth handsome Chen Lin and the seventh handsome Feng Junfu. This is only now in the era of turmoil. The whole city is united in hatred. Even if the Qing army is flying like locusts. The Hui army also wants to completely wipe out the Qing army. This land belongs to the Hui people. Territorial Defense War. Guarding the hometown makes the Hui army full of fighting spirit.
