What appeared in front of Wang Youling was an old man who was a little old, taking Chaozhu and walking slowly down with a cane.

The accompanying Goshhana was very envious, and said in a loud voice: "Xiang Shuai has not been down the mountain for more than a year, He Zhongcheng's face is really big!" ”

As others have said, Xiang Rong's face is missing a large piece, it was injured by the crusade against Li Wencheng's bandits in Huaxian County, and his face has not grown back, he is slender and long, and he does not look like a military general, but like an old master in a private school in the countryside.

He is only sixty years old, but the war has made him as old as an old master who has passed seventy, and he is a little trembling when he even walks, but Wang Youling knows it clearly.

In front of this Xiang Rongxiang Xinran, is really the Qing Dynasty Optimus Prime general figure, Xianfeng three years when he pursued the Taiping army to Jinling, the Taiping army has taken Jinling, he then led 13,000 soldiers to set up camp outside the city, gradually attacked, and fought to take the Purple Mountain and other places, the nearest Zhang Guoliang camp is only two places away from Tianjing.

In the past three years, he and the defenders in Tianjing City have attacked and defended each other, but together with the Jiangbei camp, he slowly surrounded Tianjing, Zhenjiang and other places, especially Xianfeng bought 40 red single ships from Guangdong in four years, and the situation outside Jinling City became more and more unfavorable to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

From southern Anhui to Suchang, there are large camps in the south of the Yangtze River everywhere to block the palace, and as a result, although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was built in Jinling, it was divided into Tianjing, Zhenjiang and Guazhou, which could not support each other at all, and were besieged by the Qing army.

However, the more important Jiangnan camp became a barrier between Suchang and Zhejiang, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom could neither take southern Jiangsu nor Zhejiang, and was in an extreme financial predicament.

Although Su Chang and Zhejiang have no available soldiers. However, this Xiang Rong miraculously saved the southeast half of the mountains and rivers of the Qing Dynasty.

As soon as Wang Youling thought of this, he sighed, and he immediately bowed to Xiang Rong: "Zhejiang Hangzhou Mansion sentenced Wang Youling to see the handsome!" ”

Xiang Rong is as approachable as an old master in a private school in the countryside, "I already know your intentions, let's go up the mountain and talk!" ”

It's just that Wang Youling also knows that Xiang Rong joined the army in his early years, and he is illiterate, and he has to use official documents to outsiders: "Please Shuai!" ”

Xiang Rong walked up slowly and majestically, stopping for a while after walking a few steps. But Wang Youling knew that this was just an illusion.

He is the mainstay of the southeast half of the mountains and rivers, if he is not there, this southeast will be difficult to protect, but as long as he is in Zhongshan, the Qing army can lock the Taiping army in Tianjing.

Don't look at his decrepit appearance now. It has been more than a year since he went down to Zhongshan, but none of the more than 20 generals in the Jiangnan battalion is not obedient to Xiang Rong, especially Zhang Guoliang, a member of the general, who admires Xiang Rong very much.

This year, Chao Yong went up the mountain to make trouble for some reason, and a Chao Yong stabbed Xiang Rong with a gun, but Xiang Rong was still so old that he was about to die one moment ago, and the next moment he had already kicked and snatched away the spear, and the next moment he directly stabbed this Chao Yong to death on the spot. The battalion soldier who relayed this story was also present at the time: "Xiang Shuai is really a god! ”

Maybe this kind of person is a natural general!

Wang Youling only sighed like this, he followed Xiang Rong into his earthen house in Zhongshan, and his eyes were even brighter, this yard was very clean, there were pianos and books in the house, and there were bamboo and flowers outside the house, but there were a few beautiful rings missing, which was the fairyland of men's dreams.

"He Genyun asked you to come to cry and ask Qin Ting for reinforcements, right?"

"Exactly!" Wang Youling immediately replied: "Long hair into Zhejiang." The red thieves are in chaos in the southeast again, and Zhejiang Province has no soldiers and no generals, so they have to ask Xiang Shuai for a tiger general, thousands of elite soldiers? ”

"Thousands of elite soldiers?" Xiang Rong smiled: "Let me ask you, how many soldiers do I have in this Jiangnan battalion?" ”…,

"The elite soldiers of the large battalion are going out to fight, and I am afraid that there are not many soldiers left!"

Xiang Rong immediately confessed to Wang Youling: "There are nearly 50,000 soldiers in my battalion. However, there were warnings everywhere in Jiangnan, and I sent troops to help everywhere, and I wanted to take Zhenjiang, so the large battalion only had 6,000 soldiers. ”

This was a strategic decision for Xiang Rong, who believed that the siege of Tianjing was of little significance. However, it was more important to block all places, so the number of soldiers in the large battalion was expanded from 13,000 to nearly 50,000, but the strength of the large battalion headquarters near Jinling was reduced from 13,000 to 6,000.

However, in this way, the Jiangnan battalion played the role of a firefighting team, especially the dozens of generals of the battalion, all of whom were able to fight hard, so the development of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the southeast in the past three years can be said to have suffered setbacks everywhere and was in a very passive situation.

However, the headquarters of the battalion does only have these 6,000 soldiers, and now it can only trap Jinling, so Wang Youling said: "You only need to borrow the general, thousands of elite soldiers, as short as one month, as long as three months, once the thief is successful, return it immediately!" ”

It's just that Xiang Rong said: "Xue Xuan, this is your mistake, how can you limit the return date if you want to borrow troops, our Jiangnan battalion has to get 60,000 taels of military salary from Zhejiang every month, if this 60,000 taels is missing, I can only pass nine levels here!" ”

Nine passes is forty-five days to pay a salary, a nine-month military salary, after Xiang Rong He Chun, Zhang Guoliang are used this method to owe wages, the rise of the Huai army also follow this nine levels of the system.

"Since the rise of the army, I have commanded the troops to Rong, and I have spent tens of millions of taels of silver!" Xiang Rong continued: "But there has never been a place like Zhejiang that gets along with me in harmony, and the salary is never delayed by half a cent, not to mention that in addition to the big battalion, the southern Anhui battalion also uses Zhejiang to assist in paying, and it is used to tens of thousands in January, so the big camp and Zhejiang can be said to be cold lips and teeth, Zhejiang is dead, Zhejiang is dead, and Zhejiang is dead!" ”

Xiang Rong said that this is a wise saying, during this period of time Jiangnan camp and Jiangsu are very unpleasant, Jiangsu half of the world's wealth, but the Xieji camp salary source is procrastinating, never a happy word, far inferior to Zhejiang's support for Jiangsu, history until He Guiqing served as the governor of Liangjiang, Jiangsu's support for the Jiangnan camp suddenly increased tenfold.

Therefore, he continued: "He Genyun has sent you to ask for reinforcements, and I have prepared 1,800 elite soldiers, with more Western guns and cannons, ready to be on call at any time. ”

The battalion itself has only 6,000 soldiers, and even if there are many firefighting teams outside, Xiang Rong can take out 1,800 elites, what kind of magnanimity is this.

Wang Youling was moved and knelt down to Xiang Rong: "My generation of Zhejiang people has thanked the marshal, Zhejiang has a salary and a shortage, and I will never let the soldiers suffer a little grievance in Zhejiang." ”

"Very good, very good!" Xiang Rong smiled: "What my big camp lacks is food, if you have food in Zhejiang, you can recruit more Chaoyong nearby, my big camp is all people from Sichuan, Chu and Guangzhou, and Chaoyong is the most fierce." ”

"Good, good!" Wang Youling knew that there were indeed a lot of Chaoyong waiting for the battalion to recruit at any time, so he immediately replied: "Then Zhejiang Province can recruit 1,000, no, 2,000 Chaoyong, and when you go to Zhejiang, you will be paid once, but who is the general who will come to Zhejiang this time?" ”

"Is it Zhang Guoliang?"

"Zhang Guoliang is the first general in my battalion, how can he leave the camp easily?"

"Is it Qin Ruhu?"

"Qin Ruhu is a real tiger in my camp, and you can't leave the camp."

"Is it Hu Songlin?"

"It's also a tiger, and now the front line can't stop him?"

"That's Deng Shaoliang? Is it Zhou Tianshou? Is it Qin Sanding? Or Lee Tae-tae? ”

He said that he was a famous general in the camp, but Xiang Rong gave a name that was quite loud but not loud enough: "It's the guerrilla Zhang Yuliang!" ”

Zhang Yuliang! This name has always been associated with Zhejiang. …,

……

Xianju County.

When he received Liu Chang's envoy, Sun Huzi was quite calm, but the messenger took out the letter, and after Sun Huzi read it, he was furious: "What a dog thief, what a dog thief, Wu Cong thief, my Sun Li will destroy you!" ”

Although he had been on guard against Wu Cong for a long time, he was a little lax after all, but he didn't expect this Wu Cong to be so bold that he dared to launch the group training of Xianju and Tiantai counties to start an incident together.

What's more, this Wu Cong is also preparing for Su Jingrong to jointly launch it, not to mention that he contained Guan Jiyong's rout, which is enough for Ling Chi to be executed.

In the past, Sun Huzi thought that he had five infantry companies and an artillery company in his hands, and decided to let Wu Cong go for the time being, even if Wu Cong's hands and feet were a little unclean.

But he didn't expect this guy to be so bold, so he shouted as soon as possible: "Find the two dog thieves Shi Yunqing and Lin Song, and let them deal with Wu Cong, but there is such a big leak!" ”

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, it turned out that their Rock Battalion had a chance to become the third infantry battalion to expand into a regiment according to its previous history, and he was also careful in everything and did not dare to make any mistakes.

I didn't expect these two dogs to dare to cause such a big disaster, and they actually leaked the details of their own even to Wu Cong!

When he was angry, Shi Yunqing and Lin Song had already walked in: "Battalion commander, what's the matter with us?" ”

"The inspector is very dissatisfied with what our camp is doing in Xianju, you can read the letter for yourself!"

He casually threw out Wu Cong's handwritten letter, and Shi Yunqing over there immediately took the letter, and after reading two or three lines, he scolded: "This dog thief almost fell for him!" ”

"What's wrong?"

Shi Yunqing immediately said: "Wu dog thieves sent people to say, saying that there are a few big families who rely on themselves to defend the village and collect grain from our Hong army, and he only has dozens of township soldiers under him, so he dare not dispatch, please send us an infantry platoon to the countryside to help them collect grain, what a good calculation!" ”

If the infantry platoon is sent below to collect grain, with the ruthlessness of Wu Cong and Guan Jiyong, what will be the result, Sun Huzi is already a little chilling.

"I know that there is a problem with this dog thief, but I didn't expect this dog thief to be so frustrated, and then we are about to go west to Jinhua Mansion, what do you think we should do?"

"Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, cut them all!" Shi Yunqing revealed his murderous intentions: "You don't need to keep any of them, kill them all, and if you save them, you will become a scourge in the future!" ”

Sun Huzi nodded: "I also have this idea, do it immediately, don't leave any trouble!" ”
