Chapter 232: Remorse

Compared to the stage. The waves of the state capital are not alarmed, and the beard of the sun is in the gold. Washington is a little flustered.

When the main force of the Rainbow Army went south, whether it was the Wu in front. The two counties of Yiwu and Yiwu, as well as the two counties under the management of the Shanye Infantry School in the rear, had some minor riots.

Many people expressed a certain degree of pessimism about the scene after the main force of the Hongjun went south, so after thinking for a long time, he specially came to ask President Zhang of the National History Museum: "President Zhang, now that the inspection is going south, the situation in central Zhejiang has changed greatly, I don't know what good strategy you have." ”

Zhang Yuzao took the initiative to stay in Zhezhong this time, he didn't do it to fight for gold. Hua Zhifu stayed, on the contrary, he was to avoid this gold. The title of Huazhifu took the initiative to stay in Zhejiang.

He knew one thing very clearly, since the Hongjun went west to conquer Jin, Gao Liangcai sent a letter to Liu Chang, recommending him to serve as Jin. Hua Zhifu.

Two months ago, he would have been happy. The state capital and Yanzhou Mansion and the Prefecture Prefecture can be said to be the worst three prefectures in Zhejiang. Washington, on the contrary, is a well-known fat shortage in the whole province.

But Zhang Yuzao clearly knew that if he transferred to Jin as the president of the National History Museum. Hua Zhifu, even if he can take a step or two from the dragon in this life, he will be limited to this.

Now is to give him Ning Shaotai Daotai, he is not willing to take this position, the most important thing now is to assist Liu Chang to play a piece of the country, when Liu Chang sits in the south and north, he can also be the marquis and worship the prime minister.

Therefore, after he learned of this letter from the Kochi Mansion, he took this opportunity to take the initiative to stay in Jin. Hua Fu Zuo Sun beard: "Captain Sun is polite, this situation looks a little bad now, but it is actually a good time to show your skills!" ”

"How?"

"The inspection point goes south, only one battalion, one company and one military academy are left in Zhejiang, and the strength is very small, if you not only hold the existing four counties, or even take one or two more counties in the near future, then how will the inspection point look at you?"

Sun Huzi became happy: "It makes sense, it makes sense!" President Zhang is really a great sage. ”

It's just that the problem now is that there are riots in the countryside, and there have even been many cases of regimental training against water, so Sun Huzi asked Zhang Yuzao about this: "The militia is very hateful, what should I do?" ”

"What should I do?" Zhang Yuzao has his own method: "If you want to govern the militia, you must use the militia to govern it!" Now our soldiers can enter Zhejiang, Taiwan. The state capital has been decided, and it is reported that township soldiers and basic militias have been established in various places, and Yongdong counties are two counties, but Taiwan County is requested to give appropriate support nearby! ”

"That's right, the two counties of Xiantian are close to central Zhejiang, they have something to do, we can also give support!"

This is the meaning of mutual support between the two prefectures, although the township soldiers and the basic militia companies are fighting outside the prefecture, they are actually not far from the township, at most they are just crossing the county line, Sun Huzi suddenly has confidence: "Then the two counties in front will be handed over to our rock battalion!" ”

How to say that the Panshi battalion is also the third infantry battalion of the Hong Army, although the strength has weakened, but to clean up some rural militias, it is an easy and freehand thing, not to mention that there are basic cadres such as the second company of Jintang to fight together, but Zhang Yuzao persuaded: "It is easy to defeat and conquer the people's hearts It is very arduous, and now the best policy is to follow the example of Tai County, establish the township, set up the township soldiers, and establish the militia." ”

Sun Huzi immediately nodded and said, "This matter has to be done by President Zhang!" ”

"I have ruled the county for more than 30 years!" Zhang Yuzao immediately smiled and said: "Since Head Sun is interested, then he will show what he has learned." ”

His vision is not limited to the ten counties in central Zhejiang.

……

"To the south, to the south!"

The fiery red tide was hotter than the sun, and Liu Chang's rainbow army crossed the Jin. Cloud. county, rendezvous with the Ox Knife battalion there, and soon they divided into three routes and continued south.

To the south is the capital city of Chuzhou and the first county of Li. Shuixian is gone, but Liu Chang is not ready to take Li. Shuicheng, but only sent a cavalry platoon and an infantry company to keep an eye on Fucheng, as long as the Qing army in the city does not leave the city, then the first thing to solve Rao Tingxuan's Min army. …,

But the prefect of Lishui Heng has always been ignorant of soldiers, seeing a large group of red thieves crossing the border, he has been the Taiping prefect for 20 years, and today he can finally have a moment of Jian Qixun, he immediately shouted: "Generals, the red thieves have entered the country, and they will take the city of our house, and which of the generals will go out of the city to engage in the battle, and then they can join forces with Rao Zhen to break the red thieves." ”

As soon as they heard such a statement, the Qing army in the city looked at the red torrent outside the city, and had no intention of going to war at all, and their faces were as pale as dirt.

Now I'm worried about people coming in, not going out by myself! Heng Zhifu asked again: "Which brave general is willing to learn from the red boat and go out of the city to take the battle?" ”

There is still no one to answer below, and the Heng Governor now regrets lending the Wu Hongboat to Jin. Shi Jingfen from Washington, but what is lacking in the world is regret medicine, he asked three or five times without anyone answering, and he couldn't hold his face: "This mansion personally went out of the city to take over!" ”

All the generals knelt down at once: "Lord Prefect, spare the villain!" ”

"Lord Prefect, don't go out of the city!"

"Fuzun, the red thief is powerful, it's better to refuse to defend the city!"

Heng Zhifu said angrily: "Let me let you see the earth-shattering methods of this mansion, and give me 1,200 strong and brave people!" This house will lead the team to kill! ”

After a while, the city gate was suddenly lowered, and then the brigade rushed out one after another, ready to rush directly at the red thieves who crossed the border, and the generals in the city were all frightened, and shouted repeatedly: "Heng Zhifu is afraid that it has caused a big disaster!" ”

"No, no, we have to pull Heng Zhifu back!"

"Could it be that today we will repeat the massacre of the whole state?"

This so-called Quanzhou massacre, is the story of the Taiping army at the beginning, when the Taiping army passed through the whole state, do not want to break the city then pretend to run to Changsha, but the soldiers in the city bravely opened artillery shots, causing the southern king Feng Yun Wang to be seriously injured and fell, the Taiping army was furious for this, and attacked Quanzhou with all its strength, and slaughtered after the city was broken.

Everyone thought that the prefect of Xi had gone crazy today, and so many generals in the city refused to go out of the city to take over, how could he, a civil official, be so confused that he wanted to fight to the death with the red thief.

When I think about it, everyone feels anxious.

And at this moment, the rainbow army, which was marching like a tide, stopped, and they turned to the direction of Hengzhifu, and Hengzhifu was brave and proud.

He is an old prefect, he has been a safe prefect for more than 20 years in Chuzhou alone, and he always thinks that the soldiers are full of food, and it is easy to break a group of red thieves, and he is even happier that he has been a bitter prefect for 20 years.

Seeing that the red thief was pressing towards this side, he ordered loudly: "Wei Zhuang Yong, Qingcheng Yong, let go of the gun......"

It's just that the red tide over there has been pressed, and they are all forming a phalanx of more than 100 people, slowly advancing under the neat snare drums, and there is a feeling of Mount Tai pressing the top.

Liu Chang was also excited on the horse, and he said to Shi Tinglan beside him: "I'm sorry not to eat the fat meat sent to the door!" ”

He didn't expect that there were really good people in this state capital! First, there was a Rao Tingxuan who had never been willing to camp, and then there was a guy who dared to go out of the city to fight with the Hong Army.

Although he didn't know who this guy was, Liu Chang had already made a conclusion to him: "You are a good person!" ”

1,200 brave men with their backs to the moat, casting shotguns and carrying guns, but the power was very weak, and the red thieves were far from each other, and only a few were wounded by stray bullets.

Now the Ox Knife Battalion and the Dragon Lance Battalion are one left and one right, and they have been sandwiched over, seeing two rounds of lead shooting, the red thief is getting closer and closer, and many brave actions have been completely deformed, Heng Zhifu is still sitting in the sedan chair, shouting loudly: "Brothers, as long as the red thief is broken, he will have his own military merits and promotions, and he will be glorious and rich......."

It's just that he has already heard some gunshots, but the red thief's artillery has begun to roar, and he is about to say the law, when the palanquin man has already shouted loudly: "Futai, go quickly!" ”

He couldn't help but be startled, opened the sedan curtain and looked, and found that the 1,200 brave men who had gone out with him had disappeared without a trace, and everyone was either crowded on the wooden door on the moat like a tide, or they were all splashing into the water. …,

There are also some brave people who saw that the red thief was unstoppable, so they simply dropped their weapons and hugged their heads to show their surrender, and now only Heng Zhifu was left to sit in the sedan chair, and the sedan chair man, the long follower, and the family had run away.

What to do? The Qing army generals in the city were in a hurry, and shouted repeatedly: "Run, run!" Run! ”

They knew very well that if something happened to the Heng Governor's Mansion, they would not be able to please them, and they saw that the Heng Governor's Mansion was about to fall into the hands of thieves, but they saw a person flying out of the sedan chair, dressed in court clothes, and galloped back.

Although the red thieves set off foreign guns and cannons, the old prefect actually rushed back, and galloped towards the hanging gate on the moat, but saw that the crowd in front of him was like a mountain, hundreds of people crowded on this suspension bridge, and behind the Heng prefect was the thief soldiers.

But the next moment, the generals at the head of the city were stunned, but they saw that the Heng prefect would wear a throw, a left hook, a right straight fist, and two flying legs, kicking five or six Zhuang Yong who were crowded on the suspension door one after another.

Obviously, there were people in front of him, but this almost seventy-year-old prefect was so fierce that no one could beat him, and he rushed through the moat first, pushing dozens of people off the moat, and there were hundreds of people behind him who were brave enough to cross the river and became prisoners of the red thief.

It's just that the red thieves captured a few hundred captives and then killed and wounded one or two hundred, and they were also satisfied, and when they saw that no guns were fired in the city, they immediately withdrew.

Although the Heng Governor was sweating all over there, he didn't need to be helped, and went directly to the city gate, but he had already transformed from an optimist to an extreme pessimist: "No one is allowed to shoot a shot at the red thief, no one is allowed to shoot a shot at the red thief, whoever shoots a shot at the red thief, I will withdraw him first, I will withdraw him first!" ”

It's just that now he regrets it: "I have Admiral Wu Hongchuan to break the red thief, how can I miscalculate for a while, borrow Jinfu Shifutai, wrong, wrong, wrong, no more than this!" ”

If there is a Wu Hongchuan here, how can the overall situation be so corrupt!
