Chapter 143: The Famous General of the Peace
Guo Xing'a also came to the battle formation step by step, but now that there are more people under his hands, everyone feels that he has a high status and should no longer be involved in danger. In fact, not a few months ago, whether it was Huang Daping's siege of a deserted village or a night attack on Little Nanjing, Guo Xing'a was in front of him with a Yanling knife. Saishan, Xiande and others have always opposed Guo Xing's presence on the front line, because Guo Xing'a can already be regarded as Zuoling's last hope, his two younger brothers are too young, if Guoxing'a makes a mistake, Zuo Ling will not want to improve for ten or eight years. But in fact, every time it is hard persuasion, in fact, if it can't be stopped, it can't be stopped, even if Huiyang's ranking was held out yesterday, in fact, it means to clarify the seriousness and let Guo Xing'a be more cautious in this matter.
But today, everyone is serious, Guo Xing's expression is not good, he is not going to come to the battle in person, he is going to fight hard. The soldiers need a commander who is on the front line to boost morale, but they definitely don't need a commander who fights with them, as Goxinga himself often says, the commander should be in the position of commander. But right now, Goxinga seems to be on his body, he didn't think about commanding today, he just wanted to charge into battle.
"My lord, the Lord must not be angry and raise a teacher, and he will not be discouraged and cause war. You are the commander of the army, you can't be rash! Sezana was the first to pounce, hugged Goxinga's thigh, and began to cry.
"My lord, if you want to come to the battle in person, I won't stop you, but if you want to fight hard, you will kill my old thing first and then leave, I have never stopped you, today is death, I have to stop you!" Xiande immediately hugged Guo Xing's other leg.
Guo Xing'a struggled for a while after being hugged, and he didn't notice it with red eyes, Fuquan, who was silent, was hugging his waist behind his back. Mu Shun, Feng Sheng'a and others rushed up, pulling their arms and pulling their hands, and told Guo Xing'a to calm down in unison.
"You let go of me, let go of me! Lao Tzu wants to avenge Hatan! Goxinga struggled desperately, grief and hatred almost eating away at his reason.
"Ahh Guo Xing'a shouted and exerted his strength suddenly, when he was growing his body, he was full of strength, Xiande was old and weak after all, and he was thrown out directly. One leg is free, able to kick the ground, and then shake everyone else off at once. Behind him hung Fuquan, who was still holding his waist, and Guo Xing'a walked out with his head held high.
Everyone tried to stop them again, but they saw a handsome young man coming from behind. After pushing away Fuquan, he grabbed the collar on the back of Guo Xing's neck, and suddenly pulled Guo Xing'a back. The young man had great strength, and Guo Xing'a was dragged back a few steps by him, and fell to the ground with a "bang".
"Are you going to send troops for revenge, or are you going to commit suicide! As the commander of the first army, what kind of childish temper are you playing! How can you be like you ......when marching and fighting" The young man pointed to Guo Xing'a who fell to the ground and scolded, Guo Xing'a's face was full of foaming stars, and Guo Xing'a sat on the ground like a deflated ball, without saying a word.
There was silence in the city tower, and none of the generals thought that this master would come out, let alone that Guo Xing'a, who was sitting on the ground, seemed to be eating him very much. Watching the lively Zhao Xin and Tuo Ming'a on the sidelines was even more shocking, they both recognized the leading figures under Guo Xing'a, but no one had recommended this one to them. I didn't see this person until I went to the city last night, but no one introduced this person too much, the two only knew that this surname was Tan, and he was a six-pin thousand general, and he didn't bring troops under Guoxing'a. Now looking at Guo Xing'a, the third-grade master of the Royal Gift, who was scolded like Tan Qian's son, both of them were shocked. Guo Xing'a is also a well-known figure, and when he was scolded like this in front of others, both of them were prepared for Guo Xing'a to become angry and hurt people for a while. Although Guo Xing'a would not rush at them even if he broke out and hurt people, the two still retreated, so as not to kill the good people by mistake by the angry Guo Xing'a.
"Brother Tan, I want revenge!" Guo Xing'a didn't burst out as Zhao Xin imagined, but sat on the ground and cried very angrily.
"Yes, yes!" Tan Shaoguang stepped forward to help Guo Xing'a.
"I'm not going, I'm sorry Hatan! He was one of the first people I knew, and he was the first to fight for me. He's dead now, and I'll have to fight for him once in my life! Guo Xing'a regained the appearance of a child, leaning on Tan Shaoguang's shoulder and crying even more. Although Guo Xing'a was also in his thirties in his previous life, he was not a mature person in his previous life, and he was still an ignorant teenager in his heart.
"We all know that, my lord, but you can't go like this!" Saishana and others also knew that Guo Xing'a had lost his memory, and his life started from that unknown village, and the first time he met was the thirty or so people.
"To go is to go, but you can be in battle, you can't go desperately without a head!" After getting along for a long time, Tan Shaoguang also regarded Guo Xing'a as a friend. In Tan Shaoguang's eyes, Guo Xing'a is a strange person, he is sometimes wise and sometimes stupid as a pig, he has a proud record and the ideal of rejuvenating the nation, but he also has many shortcomings.
"Brother Tan!" Guo Xing'a suddenly held back his tears and looked at Tan Shaoguang with a solemn face.
"What are you going to do?" Tan Shaoguang felt that Guo Xing'a was going to make some evil moves.
"This is for you, I'll charge into battle, and the whole army will be ordered by you!" Guo Xing'a took out his German-style saber from the back of the bookcase and stuffed it directly into Tan Shaoguang's hand.
"How can this work?" Tan Shaoguang actually has some warmth in his heart, if he puts everything aside, Guo Xing'a really has nothing to say to him, and Li Xiucheng can't do many things.
"My lord......" Sai Shang'a and others were also frightened, Tan Shaoguang was a general of the Taiping Army after all, how could he hand over the command of the army to him. And Tan Shaoguang descended very incompletely, not to mention a bunch of conditions, until now he is in a state of being in Cao Ying's heart and in Han.
"No need to say it anymore, my mind is not clear now, you don't want me to die, just shut me up!" Guo Xinga directly threatened everyone with himself.
"Brother Tan, you want me to die, you can refuse!" Guo Xing'a handed the saber that was pushed back by Tan Shaoguang in front of Tan Shaoguang again.
"Don't take it as an example!" Tan Shaoguang hesitated, but still took the saber.
"The deployment remains the same, the whole army will go out of the city, and Brother Tan will take charge of the center on my behalf. Fuquan, you take the guard squad to stay, Brother Tan is just like me, if someone disobeys Brother Tan's order, he will be killed! Guo Xing'a said in an unkind tone.
"Huh!" Fuquan reluctantly agreed, he knew that he had to stay, in case Tan Shaoguang wanted to murder Guo Xing'a, he could still stop it.
"Even me, the whole army is under your orders, Brother Tan, I have entrusted everything to you!" Guo Xing'a arched to the ground at Tan Shaoguang.
"The whole army is out of the city, and outside the city gate, a hollow phalanx will meet the enemy!" Tan Shaoguang calmly accepted Guoxing's salute, took out the Guoxing'a-style saber, and gave his first order.
"Huh!" Goxinga was the first to take the lead.
"Huh!" This is indeed a good solution, but Guoxinga arranged Tan Shaoguang, who no one believed in, instead of Saishana and others taking charge of the whole army, and everyone was a little reluctant. However, it was a foregone conclusion, Guoxing Adu was the first to receive the order, and the generals could only send troops as ordered.
After Tan Shaoguang was captured, he almost frantically absorbed all kinds of knowledge, and at the same time, he was a strong person, reflecting on his own shortcomings every day. The easiest place for people to learn is where they fail, and the biggest failure in Tan Shaoguang's life is to be captured by Guoxing'a. So he has been thinking about a question, that is, how he was defeated by Guo Xing'a in the first place.
In terms of strategy and military command and scheduling, although Guo Xing'a is quite insightful, he is actually still relatively immature, at most he is a Chinese person, and he is still far from a famous general. Tan Shaoguang asked himself, although he is not a generation of famous generals, he is still slightly better than Guoxinga. In the battle of the canyon, although Guoxing'a set up an ambush in advance to take the lead, Tan Shaoguang still had a big advantage in terms of troops. After several reflections, Tan Shaoguang felt that he was mainly defeated on two points, one of which was the organizational structure of the army, and the squad and platoon company structure of the Qing army was far better than the Taiping army's two-Sima system. The second is weapons, the whole army of Guoxinga is equipped with the most advanced foreign guns and cannons, while although the Taiping army also has muskets, but the performance is uneven, and the firepower is not Guoxinga's opponent at all.
Thinking about this, Tan Shaoguang is now commanding the Guoxing Asuo Department, which can be said to be handy. He did not leave all the artillery at the head of the city like Guo Xing'a, but brought all the twenty Weiyuan military cannons, so that the Qing army could deploy firepower at close range and cheaply while having the fire support of the city. At the same time, in the formation structure, the hollow phalanx is no longer rigidly used, but the first cavalry company and the reconnaissance company are arranged on the two wings of the phalanx as rangers. Then all the forces of the infantry battalion and the baggage company were formed into a phalanx, and the second battalion and cavalry, which had temporarily stopped using muskets, remained in the formation. When attacked by the enemy, it can be closely defended with artillery and infantry, and once it is attacked, it can be directly attacked by cavalry, and the infantry of the second battalion using broadswords can clear the enemy army that has been routed by cavalry. Tan Shaoguang's formation is far more clever in application than Guoxing'a, who copied the movie bridge.
The combat strength of the Twist Army was low, and in the face of the powerful attack of the Qing army, it was almost crushed at the touch of a button, but this battle was not easy. Because the Twist Army has a nearly fifteen times the strength advantage of the Qing Army, after the Qing Army defeats a Twist Army, it will immediately face another force, and after the Twist Army is broken for a while, it can quickly gather again, and the Qing Army will be tired of facing the Twist Army that will never be finished. The only solution is to find the Chinese army of the Twist Army, defeat the leader of the Twist Army in one fell swoop, and perform a decapitation operation. In this way, as long as the Chinese army is destroyed and the other armies are leaderless, the Qing army can take advantage of the chaos of the Twist army to break them one by one. However, the Twist Army did not raise the banner of Daxu, and it was not easy to find the Chinese Army of the Twist Army.
If you follow Guo Xing'a's temperament, then see who fights whom, and fight one by one, sooner or later you can hit the Chinese army of the twisted army, which is the meaning of fighting brute force. Although Tan Shaoguang has no better way, it is more ingenious to operate.
Under the command of Tan Shaoguang, who was sitting at the head of the city, Guo Xing'a slowly drove to the outside of the city with his subordinates, and the twisted army also poured out to meet the battle. The Twist Army, which had just besieged 800 people last night and was defeated by the Qing army, was not prepared to fight the Qing army head-to-head. But last night, there were bursts of crying in the city, and the leader of the Twist Army thought that the morale of the Qing army had been lost, and the soldiers had no heart to fight. Only then did he put on a posture, preparing to defeat the Qing army out of the city in one fell swoop, and take the rich and prosperous Dezhou City.
The phalanx of the Qing army slowly moved forward, easily defeated the Twist army that blocked the road, and gradually penetrated into the Twist army's military formation. The crowd watching the battle at the head of the city was all nervous. Saishana and the others were concerned about the safety of Guoxing'a, afraid that he would do something irrational. And Zhao Xin and Tuo Ming'a were because they didn't understand military affairs at all, they looked at the formation of the Twisted Army like a pocket, and Guo Xing'a was slowly getting into the pocket, thinking that Guo Xing'a was under siege and would definitely not be spared.
Tan Shaoguang's ingenious place is to change the strategy of Guoxing'a to attack everyone. The Qing army drilled into the belly of the Twist Army and started fighting, so that although there were enemies on all sides, the Qing Army could also attack multiple enemy forces at one time, and it could find the Chinese army of the Twist Army faster. Moreover, the so-called Chinese army is naturally the center of the array, and the position where the Qing army is located is theoretically closer to the Chinese army of the twisted army.
The Qing army made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and indeed quickly found the location of the Chinese army of the Twist Army. This is actually very simple, the main general of the Chinese army is naturally surrounded by elite soldiers, and he must be stronger than other teams. The Qing army attacked eight enemy forces at the same time, and broke up seven of them, and one of them was not impressed, which was naturally where the Chinese army of the Twist Army was.
Sure enough, after receiving the key care of the Qing army, the only Twist Army that insisted on shooting with bows and arrows and Qing muskets, erected the banner of the Chinese army, and summoned other departments to move closer to the Chinese army and besiege the Qing army to rescue the main general.
"Revenge! Banzai! After finding the target, twenty Weiyuan general artillery came to a salvo against the Twist army, the infantry slowly opened the phalanx, Guo Xing'a drew the Yan Ling knife, shouted "Long live" and launched a revenge charge.
