"We Hunan people are all mules!" Deng Shaoliang stood in his handsome tent and said that it is not easy for us to come to this Zhejiang Governor, don't let Lao Tzu lose it easily, why do you have to bite the red thief a few bites......"

After a few days of preparation, #阝绍良那是越来越来信心了i州这个 "Tiequzhou" is not called in vain, this is a real Xiongcheng, not to mention that the red-clothed cannon in Deng Shaoliang's hand can't be opened, he estimates that the red thief can't be bombarded with Western siege artillery, and he can't bombard.

The source of "Tiequzhou" is the rebellion of the three feudatories in the early Qing Dynasty, Geng Jingzhong's faction once attacked Quzhou, but Geng's army before and after three years, dozens of battles in Quzhou, countless casualties, but never broke through the Quzhou Mansion, and finally Geng Jingzhong failed, but most of the troops were under the city of Quzhou, and they could not advance an inch

It's just that someone next to him is worried about Li Yuandu: "Li Ciqinggong's first war, did the military gate let him return to Fucheng?" ”

#阝绍良当即回答道: "Although Li Yuandu has experienced the war for the first time, he has followed Zeng Shilang for many years, and he has done everything in big and small wars, which can be regarded as a horse career, and now he insists on fighting with the red thieves outside the city, and there are eight battalions of the Anyue Army, I think it is enough to protect himself, right?" ”

Although the Anyue Army is said to be the new Hunan Army, it is a base army after all, and with the prestige of the Hunan Army, it must be able to fight with the Red Thief, right?

However, although the twelve battalions of their own battalions retreated into Quzhou City, it was extremely difficult to hold on for how long, especially behind Shi Dakai's 20,000 troops.

It is already difficult to deal with a willow family, not to mention the addition of a famous winged king Shi Dakai.

The war on the exchange has reached a fever pitch.

Although no telegraph lines were erected from Quzhou and Yanzhou to Ningbo, the battle reports from the front line were transmitted from fast horses and carrier pigeons to places where there were telegraph lines, and then sent to Ningbo by telegram.

"The Hong army suffered a small setback in Yanzhou, and fought fiercely with the Qing demon Zhang Yuliang for two days!"

"The Hongjun conquered the Yanzhou Mansion, and Zhang Yuliang's troops broke through the siege and left・・・・・・"

"Li Yuandu, #阝绍良血书求救于浙江布政使胡兴仁・・・・・・"

"The Rainbow Army issued the Yanzhou Battle Bulletin, announcing that 4,500 enemies were annihilated in the Battle of Yanzhou・・・・・・"

The convergence of information from all sides into the exchange has created a wave in prices, and speculative traders of different colors have joined the gamble, and from time to time someone is distressed.

Hu Xueyan is the one who holds the trump card, but he didn't make a move easily, he just glanced at Feng Wenyi on the other side, and then said: "I'll take a little money to play, sell it in Mayan..."

Everyone can already see that this businessman, who has a first-class seat on the exchange, has joined the gambling side.

And his other party, Feng Wenyi chuckled: "I don't think I can do it!" ”

The Hong Army is a division of victory, and this time the battle of Yanqu may have a bit of twists and turns, but the final victory belongs to them.

"This time Brigade Commander Qu is not here, it is my first battle as the acting brigade commander, everyone gives me a face, how can I fight beautifully!" As soon as Juton opened his mouth, his ambition was exposed: "If I can't preside over it in person, it will be too shameless!" ”

Of course, he has ambitions, but Zhu Dun is also soberly aware, and everyone usually recognizes that Qu Jie is just a mediocre material, at most he is just a company commander, and his advantage is that he is gentle, and he can unite his colleagues and subordinates, and everyone recognizes that he is a good person, but he is not an excellent commander.

However, this brigade commander Qu, who has always been modest, is invincible and invincible with the dragon lance brigade, and has never failed. …,

Everyone is recognized that their command talent is ten times better than Qu Jie's, but if they don't fight well with the dragon spear brigade, then where will they go!

Therefore, the pressure on Zhu Dun is extraordinarily great, but he has also become extremely sensitive in this pressure: "This time in Quzhou, the protagonist of the real big drama is us, and now it has been ascertained that the main force of the Qing Demon in Quzhou is the 20th Infantry Battalion, Tu Yong, and 6,000 Green Battalion soldiers, of which Deng Shaoliang led 6,000 people from the 12th Battalion of the headquarters, and 2,000 Tu Yong and Green Battalion soldiers, a total of 8,000 people to defend Quzhou, this is the most difficult bone to gnaw, and hand it over to our Dragon Lance Brigade and command the Jinhua Independent Regiment to carry out the siege mission." ”

This is indeed the most important part of the entire campaign, most of Deng Shaoliang's 8,000 men are combative, and there are strong cities to garrison, and the dragon spear brigade will be very difficult to fight.

"As for Lao Huo's side of the Nanxi Brigade, they are in charge of Li Yuandu's Anyue Army in the southwest, with a total of 4,000 people in the eight battalions of the Anyue Army, and 1,500 soldiers from Tuyong and Green Battalions, Lao Huo's side is known as an infantry brigade, and the actual strength participating in the battle is only an infantry regiment, only 3,000 people, and it must be not easy to think about it if you want to attack 5,500 people with 3,000 people, so I repeat that although our task is the main attack, we must be ready to assist in the war at any time!"

"We are the 1st Brigade of Dragon Lances!" Juton said very domineeringly: "The first brigade of the rainbow army! ”

"The First Brigade of the Rainbow Army!" The officer couldn't control their arrogance, and responded in a loud voice: "The first brigade of the rainbow army!" ”

It's just that Juton quickly thought of one thing: "Also, inform the direction of Yanzhou that the strength of the front line avenue should be the main force of the battalion, at least it should be an additional platoon company!" ”

"This time the mission of our brigade is to fight Li Yuandu!" Qu Qiu said a little deflated: "This brigade includes the main force of the cavalry regiment under it, with a total of 3,500 people, and Li Yuandu's troops, with a total of about 4,000 people from the eight battalions of the Anyue Army, plus 1,500 people from the green battalion and Tuyong, in general, the enemy and us are equal!" ”

Although Li Yuandu's actual strength reached 5,500 people, while the Nanxi Brigade only had 3,500 people, Huo Qiu said directly: "The strength is comparable!" ”

In any case, the Nanxi Brigade is also a unit that has gone through countless bloody battles, and it is equipped with so many foreign guns and artillery, and it has an advantage in firepower.

Yun Tianzong has already understood: "This time it's still an assist!" ”

"It's the main attack!" Huo Qiu corrected Yun Tianzong's mistake as soon as possible: "This brigade is the main attack force, and the other troops are the assisting troops, and strive to solve the battle in the first time!" ”

This is the arrogance of him Huo Qiu and the entire Nanxi Brigade, and they must not let that mountain press on their heads

"Understood!" Yun Tian laughed and said, "Brigade Commander, let's still use the old tactics of our Bao Village!" ”

They knew that Li Yuandu's Anyue Army belonged to the Xinxiang Army, which was roughly the tactics of "forming a tough village and fighting a dumb battle", which looked clumsy, but in fact it was extremely difficult to deal with, not to mention that Li Yuandu still had a military advantage in his hands.

However, in the battle of Baocun, their Nanxi Brigade had already fought with the Hunan army's barracks system once, although Baocun's tactics were copycats, and the tigers could not be turned into cats, but also let the officers and men of the Second Brigade have a preliminary understanding of the Hunan army's defensive tactics.

They clearly know that for such a Hunan defense system, there is no urgency, slow work can produce meticulous work, and it is necessary to grind it out little by little, and it is especially necessary to pay attention to giving full play to the coordination of infantry and artillery and the power of engineers.

It is impossible to break such a defensive system with a burst of artillery bombardment or a fierce attack, so although Huo Qiu was anxious and wanted to end the battle before the dragon lance brigade and join the siege of Quzhou City, he told himself that he must not be anxious: "Tell the brothers, seven days, I will give a week, as long as Li Yuandu is eliminated within a week, I will kill two pigs and a fat cow for each to improve their lives, remember, it is seven days!" ”…,

One week, seven days!

Although the war was imminent, Huo Qiu remembered Liu Chang's teachings again: "Take your time, don't be in a hurry, ask Li Yuandu to cooperate with our rhythm, by the way, has Deputy Company Commander Bao's cavalry returned?" ”

"Not yet!" Yun Tianzong replied: "Deputy Company Commander Bao brought a cavalry platoon over to reconnoiter Li Yuandu's defense on the spot!" ”

"Does she understand?" Huo Qiu was a little suspicious: "Although her equestrian skills are good, there are some things that cannot be seen by equestrianism alone!" ”

To tell the truth, although Huo Qiu admires Bao Meiying, a female cavalry officer, there are some things that are outside of equestrianism, especially Li Yuandu's defensive layout, troop deployment, and firepower settings, which are things that ordinary platoon officers can't observe.

Ordinary soldiers cannot observe the length, width, density of troops, second echelon, level of fortification, and deployment of the fortifications in front of them, all of which can only be seen by the most experienced veteran officers, and they must be specially trained officers, not to mention drawing these situations on a map.

Sometimes you can't observe it just by looking at it, and you have to try to risk death once or twice, conduct field surveys once or twice, and even have to fight prisoners, so Huo Qiu has no confidence in Bao Meiying.

For such a little girl, such a task, even if Zhou Xiuying came by himself, he couldn't provide enough information to himself, but he was so eager for Bao Meiying's return.

As long as Bao Meiying's information arrives, everything is already ready, and he only needs to personally conduct a field survey again, and then he will clean up the old guy Li Yuandu.

Isn't it the Eighth Battalion An Yue Army? This time, we must make our Nanxi Brigade change from "assist" to "main attack".

Four thousand Xiangyong, this is really a big meal, Huo Qiu even has a fantasy, that is, the battle flag of his Nanxi Brigade was the first to be planted on the head of Quzhou City.

"Deputy Company Commander Bao is back!"

Seeing that the brigade commander didn't react, the herald shouted again: "Deputy Company Commander Bao is back, she is rushing over here!" ”

Huo Qiu took a while to react: "What, Bao Meiying is back!" Come here! ”

He personally walked out of the headquarters to greet Bao Meiying, but saw Bao Meiying riding on a white horse, with sweat on her forehead and a smile on her face.

Smile?
