Chapter 196: Aftermath (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"What's going on?" Liu Chang didn't expect that there would also be a rebellion in Taiping County: "Then why did they send a company to Huangyan?" ”

Although there was a whole teaching battalion and other sporadic troops left behind in Taiping County, which was stronger than Huangyan County, Liu Chang did not expect that the teaching battalion would be so high, and he still sent an infantry company to Huangyan to support Feng Sixian when he was in great difficulty.

When he asked, Zhou Xiuying didn't understand: "I'll invite Ye Niangzi over and ask carefully!" ”

Liu Chang shook his hand: "Ye Niangzi doesn't have to, just let that company commander come over, this is our own family matter!" Camp Commander Zhou, you settle Ye Niangzi first! ”

Although the reinforcement of this company surprised Liu Chang, he was a little relieved, no matter what, the Hongjun is still a united and powerful collective.

The training battalion insisted on sending an infantry company to the Huangyan Company in the face of a regimental training rebellion in Taiping County, and this alone was sufficient.

He couldn't help but think of the decisive battle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in northern Jiangsu -- the Battle of Huangqiao.

Although the Kuomintang army had 100,000 people, they demolished each other, and Li Mingyang, Li Changjiang, and Chen Taiyun not only sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, but also took the opportunity to dig into Han Deqin's wall.

The Chinese communist army, although there are only 7,000, but all departments are united, no matter how far away from northern Jiangsu, the New Fourth Army troops immediately sent reinforcements with as little as one company or more than one battalion to support Huangqiao, although the number of troops is not much, but their arrival changed the fate of the entire war situation.

The final outcome was that the New Fourth Army miraculously turned the tide of the war, and the 30,000 national army suffered a devastating blow, and since then the balance of power in northern Jiangsu has fundamentally changed.

And now that the teaching camp has set a good example for the entire Rainbow Army, Liu Chang immediately felt that the Rainbow Army had gradually taken shape.

However, Zhou Xiuying still asked: "Check, I'll go and settle Ye Niangzi?" She seems to be in a hurry to come and see you! ”

"Let's take care of the family affairs first!" Liu Chang told her: "In this current situation, how can I have the time to see Mrs. Ye!" ”

Although Ye Niangzi came to vote alone, this may be a very good opportunity, but Liu Chang definitely can't take care of this matter here.

He turned around and asked Feng Sixian and said, "Feng Zhixian, you did a very good job this time, it turns out that I didn't use the wrong person!" ”

Feng Sixian immediately said: "Check, you may be a little mistaken, this time it is not me who is presiding over Huangyan's attack and defense, it is Shi Niangniang!" ”

"Shi Niangniang?"

This name made Liu Chang and Shi Tinglan a little embarrassed, and the two of them only held hands once, why did they come out with the title of Shi Niangniang?

But Liu Chang still had to keep a smile on his face, and he said: "No, you are also very good, I will remember your merits, how many comrades did we die in this battle?" ”

Feng Sixian immediately said: "There are a lot, although there is no final count, but including the newly recruited Tuan Yong, there are more than a hundred glorious deaths!" ”

Even if Tuan Yong, who was temporarily recruited, this number still made Liu Chang's heart ache, and he finally managed to prevent his tears from falling again: "I will remember their names, this time the sacrifice is too great!" ”

It's not so much that the sacrifice is too big, but that the capital of the Hong Army is too small, but Liu Chang also knows that after this battle, the Hong Army has controlled the territory of two counties, not to mention that Huang is too familiar and the six counties are enough, which is the essence of the entire Taizhou Mansion.

As long as he had enough land and money and food, Liu Chang would be able to expand more troops, so he still wiped away his tears. ..., over there, Feng Sixian held Zhang Chengye's hand and said: "This time, the bravery of Zhang Chengye's brothers has helped a lot, Mu Yinan said that their bravery is a tofu soldier, but it turns out that the bravery of Zhang Chengye's brothers is reliable!" ”

It's not so much that it's reliable, it's better to say that Zhang Chengye's vision is okay, and he actually found a bunch of brave people who have a deep hatred with Mu Yinan and Huang Tingxuan, and it is with their efforts that the defenders of Huangyan County can wait for the return of the main force of the Hong Army.

Zhang Chengye hesitated, and immediately knelt down for Liu Chang: "Lord Inspector, this time to defend the city, due to the urgency of military affairs, I had to temporarily recruit 400 brave soldiers, and promised them a reward of 20 taels of silver, if the war dead were given an additional 30 taels of bereavement, now ......"

He was a little worried that the promise he made at the beginning would not be passed on Liu Chang's side, but Liu Chang quickly reassured him: "No problem, whether it is a reward, a soup and medicine fee, or a pension, just do as you say, and be on par with the soldiers of my Hongjun." ”

He asked again: "How many brave casualties did you suffer in this battle?" ”

Zhang Chengye immediately said: "Nearly 100 brave people have been damaged, I have led the brave for many years, and I have never been so fierce as this battle of Huangyan!" ”

Liu Chang nodded and appeased Zhang Chengye, but he glanced at Shi Tinglan before he said, "You are safe, better than anything else!" ”

Shi Tinglan was a little worried at first, worried that Liu Chang would investigate her seizure of power on her own, but when she heard Liu Chang say this, she suddenly relaxed, and also said half a love word: "I've been waiting for you to come back!" ”

That's enough, Zhou Xiuying over there has already led the Ouyang Company Commander of the teaching camp over: "Check, I have already settled Ye Niangzi, but she insists on coming to see you!" ”

"No hurry!" Liu Chang felt the appetite of hanging a leaf lady: "We have to take care of the family affairs first!" ”

The so-called family affairs are all the aftermath work of the entire Hongjun, the war dead need to be buried, they need to send pensions to their families, and the wounded need to arrange treatment, and they need to be given soup and medicine.

And the most tedious of these tasks is to deal with the thousands of prisoners captured in this campaign, they have green battalion soldiers, regimental bravery, and peasants who have been temporarily coerced, and this work must be handled very meticulously, and at least half of the prisoners must be replenished into the rainbow army, especially those captured regimental training, which have been confirmed to be assigned to the punishment camp.

But the first task is to eliminate all the remnants of the enemy first, so Liu Chang turned around and asked Company Commander Ouyang: "Ouyang, is the situation in Taiping serious?" ”

"It's not particularly serious!" Company Commander Ouyang Xin told Liu Chang: "Should I stay in Huangyan, or should I rush back first?" ”

"I can't let you run for nothing." Liu Chang told Company Commander Ouyang: "Next, we must clear the remnants of the enemy outside the city, and you bring some prisoners back." ”

Everyone understood in his words, that is, to hand over the easiest task to Ouyang Xinlian, if they couldn't catch enough prisoners, everyone would find a way to solve it for him.

Next, Liu Chang asked about the situation in Taiping County: "How many people participated in the rebellion?" ”

"Only a few hundred!" Ouyang Xin told Liu Chang: "At most, there are 1,000 people, and they are scattered all over the county, if it weren't for the Buxing landing, there would not be this number." ”

Su Jingrong's attempt to gather tens of thousands of people to start an incident with one of his letters was obviously too optimistic, even if there was the stimulus of Buxing and landing on the Taiping coast, there were still only a few hundred regiments in Taiping County.

Taiping is different from Huangyan, Huangyan's Tuyong knows nothing about the combat effectiveness of the Hong Army, and when the Hong Army first arrived in Huangyan, the local situation was also blind, not to mention that the militia in Huangyan County was quite brave.

But Taiping County is different, the Rainbow Army has captured Taiping County for more than a month, during which the Rainbow Army has repeatedly won victories in Taiping County, giving the squires in Taiping County an impression of invincibility. ..., not to mention that Liu Chang and Shi Tinglan have already been divided and disintegrated at the local level, so most of the squires who are armed with the militia are now neutral, even if they have a hostile attitude towards the Hong army, they have to wait and see.

In fact, the situation is more optimistic than Liu Chang imagined: "In fact, we don't need to take action, we can clean them up with group training." ”

Among the regimental training and local strongmen, most of them have a neutral attitude, and those who oppose the Rainbow Army and those who are inclined to the Rainbow Army are all minorities, but with the support of the teaching battalion in the back, it is enough for these strongmen who are close to the Rainbow Army to have an overwhelming advantage.

After Liu Chang heard that the situation in Taiping County was quite optimistic, he immediately said: "It seems that Huang Xiude's head will be handed over to you!" Also, you dragged Mu Yinan to Taiping County to kill him! ”

Liu Chang's retaliation measures are not limited to this, but he is going to ask Ge Mengjin and Ye Niangzi about it next: "Why are the fifth masters and Ye Niangzi gone?" ”

"They fought with Buxingyou's fleet for half a day yesterday, it is said that the battle was dark, Buxingyou they all sank four ships, and many Guangyong were killed and wounded, but when the fifth master thought he could succeed, Buxingyou pulled out his Jinbaochang, which was a live battery on the sea......"

The Buxing's Jin Baochang was an enlarged version of the large red single ship, which was used by Cantonese merchants to transport goods, but after being renovated, it became the largest and strongest warship along the entire Chinese coast during this period, capable of being equipped with twenty or thirty guns.

The Jinbaochang in Buxing is larger than the ordinary large-sized red single ship, which is only five or six hundred tons, but the Jinbaochang can carry eight or nine hundred tons and is equipped with more than 40 foreign cannons.

Even though Ge Mengjin and Ye Niangzi had made all preparations in advance, their foundation was too thin, and the result was that this Jin Baochang played a decisive role in naval battles, and often a single round of shelling could kill several ships on Ye Niangzi's side.

And the shelling on Ye Niangzi's side was insignificant for the Jinbaochang, and as a result, after a battle, more than ten large and small warships were sunk on Ge Wuye's side, and six warships were captured by Bu Xingyou.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the remaining Ge Mengjin fleet immediately turned to break out, but was surrounded by Buxing's fleet, which resulted in the loss of several more ships in the breakout, and when they fled back to Yuhuan, they found that Ge Mengjin's ship had not returned.

Ge Mengjin's people and the rice boat he drove disappeared without a trace, and the pirates waited for a day, and risked their lives to send ships out to sea to search, but they didn't find Ge Mengjin.
