Li Xiucheng did not listen to Huang Daping's suggestion to attack immediately, the 80,000 army was exhausted after running dozens of miles with Guoxing'a, and the Qing army had rested for almost two hours, and now was not a good time to attack. The Qing army was only 2,000 people at most, and Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng besieged it with forty times the number of troops, so there was no need to rush it. Moreover, the defensive deployment of the Qing army was also a bit child's play in the eyes of Li Chen and the others, and the trapped Qing army was already frightened and began to act in a panic.

Although the Qing army continued to strengthen the defense on the top of the mountain, and some of them relied on the mountain to take risks, the Qing army also divided half of its forces to go down the mountain and began to deploy defenses in Longhuying Village. It is true that the Dragon and Tiger Battalion can be integrated with the Qing army's position on the mountain, but the flat terrain of the village is very conducive to the Taiping army's attack, not only has it had little effect, but also disperses the Qing army's already stretched strength. If the Qing army concentrated all its forces to hold on to the top of the mountain, it might be able to hold out for a longer time, such an inexplicable division of troops was really a big failure, and Li Chen and the others looked down on Guo Xing'a a little bit in their hearts.

The Qing army also erected barriers such as horse rejection and antlers, but instead of making good use of the houses in the village, they demolished them and dug ditches everywhere. None of the generals of the Taiping Army understood what the Qing army was doing, and it was unbelievable that they were demolishing houses and digging ditches at this time.

The Taiping army couldn't figure out what the Qing army was doing, but Guo Xing'a on the top of the mountain knew very well that he was not frightened crazy by Li Xiucheng, and he asked for life. Since he can't break through, holding on to help is his only choice. The Qing army occupied the top of the mountain, but the area on the top of the mountain was not enough to deploy troops, and the trees would also affect the firepower of the Qing army. Moreover, if the Taiping army occupies the Dragon and Tiger Camp under the mountain, the Dragon and Tiger Camp will become the offensive base of the Taiping Army, and with the cover of houses and the like, it will be easier for the Taiping Army to approach the Qing army's position. The Qing army went down the mountain to occupy the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, and it was possible to form a three-dimensional defensive position from the Dragon and Tiger Camp to the top of the mountain, and expand the entire hillside into the position of the Qing army. Although the strength of the troops has been diluted somewhat, the depth of the position has been greatly expanded, and the firepower advantage of the Qing army can also be fully brought into play. When a battle broke out in the position of the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, the firepower of the hill position could cover the entire battlefield, and the firepower did not weaken.

Only one of the Dragon and Tiger Camp in Lingyan Mountain is relatively flat, and there are no roads on the other three sides, and it is extremely steep, and the Qing army can seal three sides by dividing one row, so only one place on the battlefield is the Dragon and Tiger Battalion. The Taiping army won the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, and the Qing army was forced to the top of the mountain, and it was inevitable that it would not be long in life. The Qing army was stationed in the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, and it could be fully firepowered, holding on and waiting for reinforcements.

The reason why Li Xiuchen and Chen Yucheng didn't see the importance of the Dragon and Tiger Camp was, of course, not because the two well-known veterans at home were not as good as Xing'a, but because of the relationship between the thinking patterns. Li Chen and Chen are both characters in the era of cold * alternately, and their thinking mode stays more in the era of cold weapons, and Guo Xing's consideration of terms such as firepower extension, shooting boundary, and blocking shooting have never been heard of. In their habitual cold weapon thinking, the Qing army on the top of the mountain must send people down if they want to support the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, while Guoxinga supports from the mountain with shells and bullets.

What the Qing army did in the Dragon and Tiger Camp was also very simple, digging communication trenches, building permanent fortifications, and setting up firepower points. Of course, in the eyes of the two famous artists, the Qing army was just demolishing houses and digging trenches. Li Xiucheng was still wondering, although the Qing army demolished a large number of bricks and stones, but did not see a single wall repaired. Of course he didn't know that Guo Xing'a didn't like things that were exposed, and the Qing army built bunkers.

Although the firepower density of the front-loading gun is far from the standard, the close-range rapid fire of the revolver rifle can also be used as a long point fire of light machine guns, and there are also cannons in Goxinga. Twenty-four of the thirty-two guns were left in the hillside position to suppress the Taiping army by long-range bombardment, and the other eight were assigned to the infantry positions of the Dragon and Tiger Battalion. Once the rifles could not stop the Taiping army's charge, the shotguns of the eight guns could quickly clear the battlefield. The Dragon and Tiger Battalion is another mountain col, and the Taiping Army has no more space to deploy its troops.

After everything was ready in the evening, Goxinga gathered the whole army and made the final mobilization on the battlefield.

"Brothers, Liuhe City didn't rush it! We're still stuck here by tens of thousands of long-haired troops! Guo Xing'a's tone was very relaxed, and he deliberately looked elated.

"Everyone is wondering! Why am I so happy? Brethren, great work is in sight! All the main forces of Changmao Jiangbei are surrounding us! What Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng are here! Goxinga waved his hands excitedly.

Xiande's face on the side turned white, Guo Xing'a is not to boost morale, this is to scare everyone to death!

Do you know what this means, brethren? The whole Jiangbei and even Nanjing of Longhair are undefended places. As long as we hold on here, other friendly forces will be able to recover more lost ground and even capture Nanjing. "Guo Xing'a paints a picture of the Qing army's various units advancing bravely.

"Brothers, don't say that this is someone else's happiness and we are behind it, we can't go into the city to live happily, but every credit has our share, and the court rewards merit and deeds, and we are the first credit. The court doesn't just reward women with silver, the court rewards the top if it wants to reward! With this thing, is there still a shortage of silver women? Guo Xing'a raised himself from the top of the three pins to wear a flower feather.

"Some brothers are worried! Tens of thousands of people are fighting around us, can we live until the day of the reward? I'm worried, too. Goxinga paused deliberately.

"Everyone, look at this formation from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain! How many times have we placed this position, but this time it is the best. Our formation has been attacked by hundreds of people, and it has also been attacked by thousands of people, and this time it was attacked by tens of thousands of people. It seems that there are more hairs than us at any time, and it stands to reason that it will not be easy to survive, and it is normal for some people to die. But I still seem to be a bunch of bastards in front of me, you also look around, are they all familiar faces! I still have to collect some new soldiers! I'm tired of seeing you! Guo Xing'a was deliberately playful, which caused the Qing army to laugh.

"Don't laugh, although everyone is here, but we also have dozens of brothers who are not here, you don't remember, I still remember, there are almost a hundred people before and after. Brothers, prepare for battle! Remember, live and follow Lao Tzu to receive the reward! Guo Xing'a played a sensational game.

"Oh!" The morale of the Qing army was invigorated.

The Taiping army also cooperated, the call of the Qing army had just fallen, the two banners of Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng and the generals' flags were all erected, and the banner of "capturing Guoxinga and destroying the blue flag" was even more in the center. The soldiers of the Qing army were nothing, and Guo Xing'a's face was already pale. He said Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng before, but it was just nonsense, he didn't know who commanded the Taiping Army at all. I didn't expect that my crow's mouth was really open, and the Taiping Army under the mountain was really a group of sages. Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng's big names Guo Xing'a were tired of hearing about it in their previous lives, how could he not be afraid of the two armies facing him now.

"These stinking shameless people, do they know what's going on with the blue flag! It's really face-saving, and Lao Tzu is unified as a blue flag! Goxinga adjusted his emotions.

"Xian Lao, you are good at writing, you will also write one later, we have to be more literary than them. Brothers, is it okay for Lao Tzu to write a poem for everyone? "Goxinga has basically recovered.

"Good!" The Qing army cheered again. Xiande and the others on the side were embarrassed for a while, and Guo Xing'a struggled to read and write poems.

"Capture Li Xiucheng alive, capture the four-eyed dog alive, return to the day of peace, and unify the Qing Dynasty for ten thousand years." Guo Xing's imitator Tai Grandpa pinched his waist with his left hand and then violently pushed out his right hand.

"Good!" The Qing soldiers didn't understand too much, and just coaxed.

Xiande, Fengsheng'a and others have a bad evaluation of Guoxing's oiling quatrain, but one day they will escape, and the sentence "unification for ten thousand years" will definitely become Guoxing's political capital. The old and refined Xiande also found a problem, Guo Xing'a loves to show off every time he is in danger, and he is the kind of show with special political implications. In short, every time the war ends, Xiande, who writes the war report, will have a lot of material.

The soldiers began to move into their own lines, and the morale that had been weakened was restored. Although there is a strong brainwashing education, the soldiers are not all fools, how can they not doubt Guo Xing's words at all, but they have their own helplessness. If the Taiping army surrendered, it would be difficult for these soldiers, who had found themselves surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, to have no idea, but the Taiping army's capture policy helped Guo Xing'a a lot. The Taiping army did not kill all the Qing troops when they saw them, but the Eight Banners Army definitely did not leave any of them, so more than half of the Qing army had no hope. The other half of the people were even more embarrassed, they were not the Eight Banners, but they surrendered from the Taiping Army, and they didn't have a chance to fight again. Once defeated, if Li Xiucheng chops Guoxing'a into pieces of meat, they will definitely be chopped into minced meat. The Taiping army treated traitors more cruelly than the enemy. Everyone was cut off by the Taiping Army, so it was better to believe in Guoxing's fool and fight with Changmao.

Xiande made a pair of large flags out of the tarpaulin of the baggage company, and wrote the quatrain of Guoxing'a. Everyone stood the flag on the top of the mountain together, and together with Guoxing'a, they comforted the soldiers on the front line, and then returned to Guoxing's headquarters in Lingyan Temple. Leaving the sight of the soldiers, everyone also put away their hypocritical smiles, and their faces were full of sadness. When Guo Xing'a entered the temple, his foot scraped on the threshold, and then the whole person fell headlong.

"My lord, my lord......" Everyone hurriedly stepped forward to help Guo Xing'a.

At first, everyone thought that Guo Xing'a had just stumbled, but after helping Guo Xing'a up, everyone was dumbfounded. Guo Xing's little face was miserable and white, beads of sweat the size of beans continued to drip from his forehead, and the whole person was already shaking.

"My lord, I'm sick!" Feng Sheng'a said with some embarrassment, Guo Xing's appearance was more like he was greatly frightened.

"Li Xiucheng is here, Chen Yucheng is here! I'll him! Guo Xing'a, who was helped into the main hall, was still trembling and couldn't even pick up the teacup.

"Old, immediately write a letter to He Chunjunmen, the Jiangnan battalion, and write a letter to Zhang Guoliang, the governor of Jiangnan, asking for help, asking for help! It must be written clearly that our army fell into the heavy siege of the Taiping Army in Lingyan Mountain in the southeast of Liuhe, and we were besieged to death. Let them send reinforcements quickly to rescue our army. In the past, it was not good for me to go to fruition, but this time, as long as they pull my brothers, I will definitely have a good reward in the future! The trembling Guo Xing'a slapped the arm of the chair vigorously, so emotional that he was a little incoherent.

"Huh!" Everyone actually has this thought, and Xiande has already prepared a draft. Guo Xing'a opened his mouth, and Xiande brushed a little bit on the side and wrote a letter for help.

"Your Excellency, you have seen it!" Xiande handed the letter asking for help to Goxinga.

"Send it now!" Where can Goxinga still be able to see it.

Xiande turned around and walked outside the hall, wanting to go to the carrier pigeon he was carrying to send the letter for help to the Jiangnan camp.

"Wait!" Bo Ritu, who had been rolling his eyes on the side, suddenly spoke out and stopped Xiande.

Everyone looked at Bo Ritu in amazement.

"My lord, this letter can't be written like this! Otherwise, no one will ever come to our rescue. Bo Ritu walked up to Guo Xing'a, slowed down his speech and said to Guo Xing'a word by word.

"You let ......" Guo Xing'a rushed to his heart with an evil fire, and was about to reprimand Bo Ri him, when suddenly the shadow of the sailor Qianzong appeared in his mind.

"Can't do it!" The three words echoed in Guo Xing'a's mind for a long time, and then Guo Xing'a suddenly jumped up from his chair as if he were suddenly resurrected. Ran in front of Xiande in three or two steps, snatched the letterhead with his hand, and tore it to pieces in a few handfuls.
