Cavalry?

As soon as Liu Chang mentioned the cavalry, the officers present were a little distracted.

Now the Qing army in Jiangsu, whether it is the Jiangnan battalion, the Seng Lingqin, the Shengbao Division, or the Jiangbei battalion, is slightly inferior to the first-class main forces such as the first division and the third brigade of the Hong Army, and the only thing worth mentioning is their horse team.

Whether it is the camp in the south of the Yangtze River or the camp in the north of the Yangtze River, there are a lot of horse teams, but the horse team of the monk king can be said to be the strongest horse team in the whole of China.

But Judun didn't hesitate, he said loudly: "The Qing Demon is a combination of infantry and cavalry, our regiment is not afraid, let alone a mere horse team!" ”

"Good!" Liu Chang immediately replied to him: "Your infantry regiment is in front, and I personally lead the headquarters behind your infantry regiment, remember, behind your dragon spear regiment is me Liu Changliu someone!" ”

"Never take a step back!" Zhu Dun said loudly: "There are 20,000 horses in the Qing Demon Brigade, and my dragon spear regiment will deploy an infantry formation on the spot and resolutely repel it!" ”

"Good!" Liu Chang said: "Let's have a war game drill and see what you should do when you encounter the horse team of the Qing Demon!" ”

"Good!" Zhu Dun was also full of confidence: "Check, we not only have to play a game of wargame drills, but we can also try our hand at Commander Zhou's cavalry regiment!" ”

……

Dan yang.

As Liu Chang estimated, the Qing army did use the horse team as the number one trump card in the entire southern Jiangsu campaign, and Monk Greenqin glanced at Xiang Rong's spiritual position, and said directly: "Zhao Jingxian failed in Huzhou Mansion, so the red thief fled north, just around the corner, today can be feared, and the army and horse team are also!" I don't know if you have any objections? ”

He was the county king of the Qing Dynasty, and among the people present, he had the highest status, so the people present. Whether it is Zhang Guoliang, He Chun, or Shengbao, they all agree with his judgment, and Shengbao immediately said: "If the red thief does not flee north, it is enough, and if he flees north, he will go south in a row with the battalion horse team, and strive to break the thief in one fell swoop!" ”

Seeing that Shengbao spoke, Zhang Guoliang now dared to mention a sentence or two: "What about Jinling?" ”

He was a vassal and therefore very afraid of being put in small shoes. spoke softly, and Hechun next to him immediately said, "It's a pity, it's a pity...... God-given opportunity, there is such a group of red thieves, just put down Jinling for the time being, and go south to defeat the red thieves! ”

Zhang Guoliang has his own opinion: "God-given opportunity. How can you miss it, now the Cantonese bandits in Jinling City are panicking, it is an opportunity to break the city, not to mention that someone said, Your Majesty has a word, and the one who can break Jinling is the king......"

He is very enthusiastic about this fame, since the Qing Dynasty was pacified, there has been no example of Han people crowning kings, and the monk king smiled and said: "What's so good about sealing the king." It's just a lot of criticism, but what Admiral Zhang said is very reasonable, and Jinling can't relax here......"

In fact, we can't help but relax, before the Jiangbei camp and the Jiangnan camp were broken by the Taiping army, the troops suffered great losses, although it is said that the people in Tianjing City are now scattered, but there is still Yu Yong, if there are too few troops to keep near Tianjing, I am afraid that it will be broken by the Taiping Army again.

"The battalion has 40,000 soldiers. I left 15,000 troops for Admiral Zhang. In case of Jinling, Zhenjiang Zhucheng, the remaining 20,000. Go south with me! ”

Shengbao felt that this battle had a good chance of winning: "The red thieves have newly won the three counties of Hangjiahu, and they need to divide their troops to guard, and there is a force from Nanxi to Jiangxi Province, and there are less than 20,000 people who can enter southern Jiangsu this time!" ”

"I and the monk king, there are 20,000 horses, there are 20,000 divisions of the battalion to the south to rescue, there should be 20,000 garrisons and regimental training in various parts of the Soviet Province, and 60,000 divisions should be 20,000 thieves, and we are 100% sure!"

He thought very simply: "When the time comes, as soon as the red thieves advance north, our soldiers will continue to attack south, and they will definitely win in one fell swoop!" ”…,

"No, no, no!" Monk Greenqin said: "The red thief should not be underestimated, especially the dragon spear and the rock are both old thieves, I think it is better to lure the infantry team first, and then the horse team suddenly kills the ......."

"Good!" It was Zhang Guoliang who spoke: "The monk king's discussion is very appropriate, and he will be able to win all the results." ”

"Thank you Admiral Zhang for your kind words!" The monk said with a smile: "If this success is achieved, I will guarantee to the center, and Zhang Junmen will be used to supervise and appease." ”

"Thank you, Monk!" Zhang Guoliang said happily: "If Zhang Guoliang gets the post of governor, he will not forget the grace of the monk king!" ”

Although he was born as a general, but in the entire Jiangnan camp, no one is more military than him, and he feels that the tactics of the monk king can definitely win all battles.

First feint with hundreds of paces, lure the red thief to pursue, and then swept in with the frenzy of the horse team, even if the red thief is strong, it may not be an opponent.

……

As a holder of the highest power, Hong Xiuquan is unqualified.

This is not because Hong Xiuquan accepted eighty-eight or eighty-seven concubines, on the contrary, Hong Xiuquan's weakness lies in his lack of strength.

That's right, Hong Xiuquan is such an ordinary person, ** and ambition are not strong enough, it is precisely in this way that Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, can surpass the king of heaven for a long time.

Unlike Chiang Kai-shek, who liked to grasp the military, political, administrative and financial powers, Hong Xiuquan did not like to deal with daily affairs, and all kinds of general affairs were extremely heavy burdens for him.

Therefore, later historians have the saying of "military division responsibility system", and now the supreme power of the Celestial Empire has returned to the hands of Hong Xiuquan.

But Hong Xiuquan is not interested in these things, just as he is not very interested in women, his ** is very limited.

After arriving in Tianjing, he still behaved like the Hong Huoquan in the countryside of Guangdong, he did not drink, he did not overeat, nor did he like to choose concubines or indulge in women, on the contrary, he never set up his own harem, and the strife of the harem made him prefer to indulge in religious affairs.

In fact, contrary to the impression of ordinary people, those emperors who can have great achievements are often ** or even possessive and ** people who are extremely strong, but Hong Xiuquan is completely opposite.

What he prefers is to indulge in his own heavenly world, where little by little the positions of the heavenly kings and ministers are arranged, and he gives them a position that is as reasonable as possible with amazing perseverance, whether they are dead or alive.

Yes, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was quite religious in nature, but the most enthusiastic and obsessed with religious affairs was this Heavenly King, and almost all the writings he left behind in the future were related to religion.

What he took the trouble to consider was not the country's personnel arrangement, or the concept of tactics and strategies, but whether he should arrange a name for Yang Xiuqing in the name of a holy divine wind, or in the name of a rain master for Feng Yunshan, or he was so fascinated by others talking about that heavenly world that he himself thought it was a real world.

And now he is talking to Shen Gui and Shen Zhenren about the latest personnel arrangements: "The Wing King has entered the dynasty, how do you see that this king gave him a Holy Spirit Telegram?" ”

The Holy Divine Wind was given to Yang Xiuqing by the King of Heaven after Yang Xiuqing went down to earth for Shi Tinglan and Yang Changmei in the third year of Xianfeng, but as soon as this title came out, foreign missionaries unanimously believed that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom belonged to Christian heresy.

The reason is very simple, the translation of this holy divine wind in later generations is "Holy Spirit", that is, the so-called "Holy Father", "Holy Son", and "Holy Spirit" Trinity, which is the unified consensus of Christendom, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom actually added the title of Holy Spirit to Yang Xiuqing's body, which is a typical heresy in the eyes of these missionaries.

And now that the king of the north is dead, Hong Xiuquan can only let the winged king Shi Dakai preside over the overall situation in view of the danger of the kingdom of heaven, so he tried his best to decide to add a religious name of "holy god electricity" to the original name of the winged king's "electric master", but Shen Gui was quite unimpressed: "Heavenly King, what name does the winged king use, this is just a trivial matter, but the country has reached such a point, and the winged king must preside over the overall situation, so I suggest that the winged king be given a military advisor." ”…,

"This won't work! This will not work! Hong Xiuquan shook his head and said: "The Lord is made by me, and the military advisor is also made by me, I gave Da Hu the name of a righteous king, and he did not accept it, so now give him a Holy Spirit Dentong Army Commander, it is enough!" ”

In the system of the Heavenly Kingdom, the position of military advisor has a very special meaning, and it can even be said to be the most important title of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, you know, there are more than 2,000 people in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but those who have the title of military division, including the nominal military advisors such as the King of Youxi, are only 14 people, and the military advisors who are active in the same period are only three or four.

But Hong Xiuquan happens to be the kind of man who is not very strong, and this kind of man who is not strong has too much suspicion, so he refused to hand over this military advisor to Shi Dakai, and Shen Gui said: "The king of heaven must not be mistaken, the current situation of the country is already in danger, and there are new red thieves who have started to seduce our soldiers everywhere, if you don't use fierce medicine, I am afraid it will be too late to regret it." ”

He added an example: "The most wrong thing I did in my life was to put on too much music in front of my junior brother and underworld, and as a result, he left in a rage, which made me lose a great help." ”

He is the senior brother of the underworld, and he is also a person who is very trusted by the Heavenly King, and the state politics of the Celestial Empire in the later period are basically his two half-brothers Anfu and Hong Xiuquan, plus the teenage Youxi King to deal with the government affairs.

But for Shen Gui, a native of Anhui, Hong Xiuquan, the king of heaven who usually likes to eat fried centipedes, is really not a qualified emperor, he can only say bitterly: "King of Heaven, even if you don't give the name of the Wing King's military division, you can also give him the position of military advisor, the first eight kings have gone to the sixth, if the Wing King is folded again, the kingdom of heaven is worried......"

"Worry-free!" Hong Xiuquan said to Shen Gui: "Last night, I had a dream that an angel descended to earth, beheaded all the demons and red thieves, and led all the soldiers in the little heaven to heaven!" ”

Ay...... Shen Gui was speechless, he could only say one last sentence: "Heavenly King, this is a matter of the survival of the country!" ”
