Outside Tianjing City, Houjia Village was a crucial checkpoint in the south, where a strong fortification was erected and the last barrier to prevent the Taiping army from fleeing south. Out of here, it's equivalent to out of Tianjing's control.

A bayonet Qian always rubbed his hands in the middle of the night and scolded: "Special mother, it's so unfair, we were used during the siege, and we were withdrawn after the fight, what the hell?" ”

A general next to him also echoed: "Who called us not a relative of the handsome?" The family is a family, of course taking care of it. "It turned out that these people were all Bao Chao's subordinates, after the Tianjing City was broken, they were driven out of the city by Zeng Guoquan, and let them stick to the outside to prevent Changmao from breaking through and escaping.

Of course, these people are unbalanced, Zeng Guoquan's subordinates eat and drink spicy food in the city, rob money and rob women, they drink the northwest wind outside, they are all Hunan troops, and the gap is too big.

In the dark night, a bright moon glowed faintly silver, and a mysterious cavalry galloped in, looking like they were in a hurry.

This is the last Taiping army in Tianjing City led by Yang Xiaoshan, which broke through.

"Loyalty!" Mr. Qian raised his torch and asked loudly after the order.

"Patriotic!" Yang Xiaoshan replied.

The password was matched, Mr. Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again: "Brother over there, it's so late, why did you pass by us and still pass by us?" ”

Yang Xiaoshan asked people to take out a few bottles of wine, bribed the Qian president, and put on a very depressed look, "Don't talk about it, I was sent by the Nine Shuai to report to the Huai Army." ”

The wine that Qian always handed over was very happy, and he was not on duty in the middle of the night, and finally got a little benefit. Hearing what was said on the other side, he was also very sympathetic, they were all hard-working people, the city had been captured, and they didn't have a chance to enjoy it. So he waved his hand and said: "Open the floodgates, let go!" ”

Yang Xiaoshan was about to pass happily when suddenly another group of people came, and the one led by shouted: "Wait, who wants to pass, do you have a waist card?" ”

Yang Xiaoshan's heart suddenly lifted, but he picked up a battalion officer's waist card on the corpse, but he was afraid that if he didn't ask the right question, it would be exposed.

"Yes, there are 。。。。。。。" Yang Xiaoshan took out a piece of silver from his bosom, ready to bribe the Qing general who came to inspect.

The two met together, and both were so surprised that they almost screamed.

When Yang Xiaoshan saw this person, he almost couldn't bear to draw his knife and was about to prepare for battle, it turned out that this Qing general who came to inspect the checkpoint was Feng Zicai.

Feng Zicai almost screamed out, he never expected that Yang Xiaoshan would actually come here, Tianjing City was besieged by iron barrels, and this East King could still escape.

"Is that you?" Feng Zicai's brows moved.

"It's me!" Yang Xiaoshan's eyes were firmly fixed on Feng Zicai's eyes, and he handed him the waist card with one hand, as long as he made any moves, he would not hesitate to cut him.

Feng Zicai took the waist card, glanced at it, handed it back, and said loudly: "It turned out to be the person of Jiushuai, you can go." ”

When Yang Xiaoshan was about to take back the waist card, Feng Zicai's hand tightened, and he said in a low voice: "We are clear, and from now on, we will not owe each other, and goodbye will be enemies." ”

Yang Xiaoshan withdrew his waist card, glanced at Feng Zicai gratefully, and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, I'm leaving!" ”

Yang Xiaoshan led more than 1,000 Taiping troops through the checkpoint of Houjia Village without danger, and finally escaped from Tianjing.

With so many people passing through the gap and heading south overnight, this abnormal phenomenon must have attracted the attention of people with a heart, and Zeng Guofan was crazy looking for Yang Xiaoshan in Tianjing City. When he learned the news, he immediately realized that Yang Xiaoshan must have fled. So he immediately asked Bao Chao to take someone to the quasi, and his younger brother Zeng Guoquan followed closely behind, he must catch Yang Xiaoshan, and he must see people in life and corpses in death.

Bao Chao chased faster than Yang Xiaoshan thought, many of the heavenly ministers in Yang Xiaoshan's team were not good at riding horses, and they didn't go fast, and before they reached Jurong, Bao Chao brought hundreds of elite soldiers to bite Yang Xiaoshan's tail.

Yang Xiaoshan had no choice but to let Li Xiucheng take the Young Heavenly King Hong Tianguifu and other Wenchen to go first, and he led 500 people to cover them and fight Bao Chao to the death.

What Yang Xiaoshan never expected was that there was an accident in this part, and they were originally going to Jurong to join Wu Ruxiao. Who knew that when Yang Xiaoshan resisted Bao Chao's pursuit, Li Xiucheng became evading the pursuit of the Qing soldiers, chose a long way, and accidentally met the rescue team sent by Yang Fuqing, the situation was critical, Li Xiucheng could only choose to keep the young king to follow Yang Fuqing's people, leaving Hong Renji to contact Yang Xiaoshan, but he didn't expect to be separated from Yang Xiaoshan from then on.

Bao Chao came straight to Yang Xiaoshan with his own soldiers, he had been smooth sailing and invincible for so many years, but he was carried in the hands of Yang Xiaoshan several times in a row, so that he was punished by Zeng Guofan several times and lost face. This time, Zeng Guofan said very heavy things to him, and he couldn't catch Yang Xiaoshan to see him, so Bao Chao saw that Yang Xiaoshan's eyes were about to bulge.

Yang Xiaoshan was calm, he wanted to buy time for the Young Heavenly King and the others to leave. He took his saber from the saddle, put the stirrup between his legs, and met him.

Bao Chao was surprised by Yang Xiaoshan's calmness, you must know that Bao Chao was killed from the pile of dead people, he had no background, one grassroots, and he rose all the way to the commander with military merits. With this murderous aura, the people who were fighting with him were a little frightened before they could make a move, and they didn't expect that Yang Xiaoshan didn't seem to be afraid at all, but had a feeling that he was at ease.

Bao Chao pointed at Yang Xiaoshan with a knife and shouted: "This admiral is going to catch you today, the bandit leader, and he will not dismount and surrender." ”

Yang Xiaoshan sneered at each other: "The head is on my shoulder, if you have the ability, come and take it." ”

The two didn't answer anymore and fought together. The other Taiping troops also fought desperately with Bao Chao's own soldiers, and each side had to put the other to death.

Yang Xiaoshan and Bao Chao fought more than a dozen rounds, this Bao Chao does have two brushes, with Yang Xiaoshan's current kung fu can not take him for a while, his knife skills are very practical, all practiced on the battlefield, Yang Xiaoshan has not met such a difficult opponent for a long time, even if he sees a few flaws in Bao Chao, but if he wants to kill this person without injury, Yang Xiaoshan has not yet been sure.

Yang Xiaoshan saw that Li Xiucheng and the others had already gone away, and he had to leave here quickly, the Qing army would definitely come to support Bao Chao, and he had to leave to get rid of him.

So Yang Xiaoshan sold a flaw, put away the sword, turned his head and ran away.

Bao Chao was too anxious, thinking that Yang Xiaoshan was invincible, so he chased after him, and shouted while chasing: "Chase, don't let Yang run away." ”

Yang Xiaoshan deliberately provoked him, put the horse back, fought with Bao Chao for a few more rounds, turned his head and ran again.

Bao Chao was angry and chased.

This time Yang Xiaoshan was about to take his hand, he bent down, took out his bow and arrows from the saddle, and looked back at the three arrows in a row.

Bao Chao's battlefield intuition was really good, three arrows attacked, and at such an instant, he couldn't see the body of the arrow clearly, and he used a big knife to launch two arrows in a row. But he really couldn't dodge the last arrow, and was hit in the chest by Yang Xiaoshan's third arrow and shot off the horse.

The main general fell from the horse, and the morale of the Qing army plummeted. Yang Xiaoshan took the opportunity to lead the crowd to leave quickly.

"Keep chasing!" Bao Chao was helped up by his own soldiers, spit out a mouthful of blood, and the heart goggles on his chest saved him, but the huge impact still made him numb all over his body, and it was only with his strong body that Bao Chao picked up this life.

As Yang Xiaoshan expected, the reinforcements behind Bao Chao rushed to him, and there were shadows of the Qing army everywhere, and Li Xiucheng and others could not be found in the panic. So Yang Xiaoshan could only fight and retreat, Bao Chao's team was not vegetarian, and unconsciously surrounded Yang Xiaoshan, a few hundred people, and the situation was very unfavorable to Yang Xiaoshan.
