The attack was frustrated, not because Chen Yucheng did not work hard, but because with the backing of the Russian infantry, these Qing troops had the courage to defend, and it was naturally quite difficult to attack the fortified city held by tens of thousands of people with a mere force of two or three thousand people.

But Chen Yucheng is a person, he is a teenager in history and does not look back, in the battle of Anqing is particularly prominent, this time he is adding oil one by one, constantly filling in his main force and the branches of the army, and even the twisting army has been summoned, and in the end, knowing that nothing can be done, Liu Xuanlin was still put in the Chigangling death place, and finally led to the exhaustion of oil, but it could not return to the old momentum.

Under Jinzhou City, he is also the same stubborn, the battle is not over yet, he has already taken Liu Xuanlin's hand and said: "Lao Liu, tomorrow it will depend on your skills, pull our old battalion up, and be angry, you must break through this Jinzhou City, don't lose to others." ”

Liu Xuanlin is Chen Yucheng's most trusted general, he had a great friendship with Chen Yucheng when he was a teenager, and played a mainstay role in Chen Yucheng's army.

Therefore, Liu Xuanlin also said unequivocally: "Yucheng, don't worry, with me Liu Xuanlin, this Jinzhou City will be on the ground!"

The battle of the second day was fierce, the Russian infantry and cavalry in Jinzhou City went out of the city several times to help, and the artillery fired more than 400 shells, the two sides fought for every inch of land in the blazing fire, Chen Yucheng went into battle several times, Ge Mengjin also led his own soldiers several times, and the two sides fought for a day and a night, until both sides were exhausted.

On this day, the losses of the defenders of Jinzhou were astonishing, with 1,500 or 600 soldiers killed, wounded and missing, including 80 or 90 Russian soldiers. Ge Mengjin's old army also lost more than 300 men, but the 12th Division gritted its teeth, and as many as 700 people were killed, wounded, missing, and fled in the battle throughout the day, and the division lost one-third of its combatants. If you take into account the front-line infantry, the proportion of losses is even higher.

The more he got to this moment, the more stubborn Chen Yucheng became: "Tomorrow we will have about four infantry companies rushing to join the battle, Ge Mengjin, the thief, has suffered another big setback today, with no less than 3,000 dead and wounded, we can't lose!"

Liu Xuanlin said: "It's better to wait for the Fourth Cavalry Brigade to come up, and we will work together to ......."

"We can't lose!" Chen Yucheng said without hesitation: "Tomorrow we will attack for another day!"

*****************************************************

Chen Yucheng's report. Always an understatement, he repeated the official documents, listing what positions were broken today, which Qing army was annihilated tomorrow, how many were killed every day, how many were captured, and the morale of the enemy army collapsed.

In these reports, there was not much smell of bitter fighting. He was more focused on administrative matters.

Admittedly, after so many years of experience in the garrison, Zenah does not look like a commander of a large army now. But a mother-in-law-like administrative officer, no matter how big or small, he can always handle it well, the chaos in Beijing has come to an end, and some of the damaged owners have praised it repeatedly: "The Hongjun is very good." ”

Now that law and order in the vicinity of Beijing had been fully restored, even if the governor had not been appointed, the incumbent magistrates and other officials had pledged their allegiance to the new dynasty, and even the Jin merchants had reopened their doors, and the market had regained its pre-war prosperity.

Liu Duoyun and Xi Na were old friends when they were in Panshi Village in the past, and he said with a smile: "You did a good job this time as a Beijing stayer. When His Majesty arrives in the capital, he must be overjoyed!"

Zena spoke to him while looking at the official document: "I'm just my duty, but seriously, what is my specific job as a left-behind guard in Beijing?" Did you hear any rumors? ”

Now the Beijing Garrison can be said to be a real leader, and the weight of power even exceeds that of the Qing Dynasty's governor, who also ruled several provinces, but Zena also knows that such a good life cannot last long. Beijing's stay in Beijing is, after all, only a temporary mission.

But Liu Chang promised him to work hard and ensure that he could work in this position for five years, so he asked Liu Duoyun about the details, and Liu Duoyun shook his head: "Lao Xi, even you don't know, how can I know such a small head as me!" Now the city of Beijing has stabilized, right? It's our turn to go to Jinzhou and have a good fight. ”

Although after entering Beijing, the Second Regiment still maintained the old drills, but Beijing, a prosperous and decaying city, will always make the hearts of the officers and men of this field unit a little commotion, so Liu Duoyun also thought clearly, Beijing City can not stay for a long time, and if it stays any longer, perhaps the flesh and blood of the troops may be moldy.

Cina read the two official documents very smoothly: "You can't move if you stay, and you can't go anywhere before Your Majesty enters Beijing......

He swept his eyes left and right, and then lowered his voice: "Now Beijing City is going to sing the empty city plan again, and I just sent a regiment to Rehe." ”

Jehol? Although Liu Duoyun is quite well-informed, he didn't expect that Xina would actually mobilize the people in Rehe, you must know that according to the previous information, Xina has sent a reinforced battalion to Rehe, and then reinforced half a battalion: "Now the troops on the other side of Rehe are almost two battalions, right?" Even if the offense is insufficient, there is always more than enough defense, how can an accident happen? ”

He knew that something major had happened in Rehe, otherwise how could such a cautious person send an infantry regiment to Rehe, and Xina also said with a wry smile: "Yes, I was originally going to pull this regiment up to support Chen Yucheng, but I was forced to issue an order an hour ago, and you Second Infantry Regiment also have to prepare well......"

"What the hell is going on?"

Although there were only two infantry battalions on the Rehe side, the total strength was almost 1,300 men, and the equipment was not bad, both battalions were equipped with Mini rifles eliminated by the first division, each soldier carried 120 rounds of ammunition, and the logistics carried 80,000 rounds of ammunition in the combat baggage, and also carried 12 artillery pieces, which were equipped with 1,800 shells.

These ammunition are enough for two infantry battalions to fight a small battle, and these two battalions are units adapted from the old Taiping Army, so the combat effectiveness is not bad, but Liu Duoyun confided the problem in his heart to Xina, and Xina said with a wry smile: "The bad is bad for this old Taiping Army......

The Old Taipings?

Liu Duoyun immediately thought of a possibility: "Could it be that madman!"

"That's right! That's him. Cina replied, "Hong Xiuquan, that madman." ”

This is a very interesting combination, Hong Xiuquan, who had been at odds with the Manchus in Rehe, actually colluded with Prince Gong, the last remnant of the Manchu Dynasty, and they joined forces to attack the Rainbow Army, which had been adapted from the Old Taiping Army.

Although the influence of the Worship of God Cult has been repeatedly eliminated in the Rainbow Army, and some veteran cadres of the Rainbow Army have been transferred to mix sand, and a number of well-trained recruits have been transferred from Anhui and Henan, the cadres are very optimistic in advance that Hong Xiuquan and the Worship of God Cult have completely no influence on the troops, not to mention that the Rainbow Army has already advanced with great triumph and even taken down the city of Beijing.

But it turned out that they were wrong, Hong Xiuquan was born as a low-ranking talent, instigated tens of thousands of people to rise up, and then galloped all the way to Nanjing, and finally was able to build the country for 14 years.

As soon as Hong Xiuquan came forward, quoted a few words from the Bible, and then lurked in the rainbow army to preach in person, there was actually a deputy battalion commander, a company commander, six platoon commanders, and more than 20 officers of the old Taiping Army who defected in front of the formation, and they also dragged away four almost complete infantry platoons and some scattered units, and the total strength of the defected troops reached more than 320 people, and the morale of the entire advancing detachment was greatly reduced.

In this situation, the Qing army on the Rehe side merged with the old Taiping army, gathered nearly 20,000 people to besiege the advance detachment of less than 1,000 people, and the advance detachment did not take good measures after the morale was frustrated, and only passively trapped under the siege, resulting in casualties and captures of more than 100 people, and the remaining strength was only more than 700 people, but it had to face the siege of 20,000 enemy troops.

"This is an unprecedented major event in the history of our Rainbow Army!" Liu Duoyun immediately said: "Even Shi Yunqing's rebellion has never been so serious, if the entire Rehe detachment is broken up or fails, then you and I will have to take responsibility!"

"yes!" "In the history of our Rainbow Army, there has never been a regimental unit that has been annihilated by the enemy or dispersed on its own," he replied...... This damn Hong maniac!"

He was originally a little dissatisfied with Liu Chang for receiving Hong Xiuquan's harem, but now he has a sense of revenge, you Hong Xiuquan can certainly come out and make a mess for me, but we don't know how many times we have slept with your woman, and I don't know how many green hats I have worn for you.

He even thought proudly that after catching Hong Xiuquan, a troublemaker, this time, he should give him a good lecture on how to sleep with his woman, who told him to jump out at this time to make trouble for himself.

That's right, this is just troublemaking, even if Hong Xiuquan has the ability, even if Rehe's detachment is frustrated or fails, it can't change the fact that the Rainbow Army has swept the world, and Hong Xiuquan is destined to become a small person in historical tragedy.

"The 62nd Infantry Regiment went to Rehe, and then the garrison of Beijing required at least two infantry regiments, the 4th Cavalry Brigade and the 12th Infantry Regiment went out to Jinzhou, and the mobile force in my hands was left with your 2nd Infantry Regiment."

Zenah explained: "Your second infantry regiment must be prepared. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
