For Wu Jun Lian Yong, the intensity of the battle in Jiangyin was definitely more than the original Jiangning Breakout Battle, when Wu Jun Lian Yong faced far more enemies than now, but at that time Wu Jun Lian Yong was holding a high-rate firing pin gun, and the ammunition was relatively sufficient, which could effectively suppress the charge of the Taiping Army. But now Wu Jun Lian Yong of Huang Dasha's battalion is holding all carbines, the rate of fire is relatively slow and easy to leak from the breech, and the suppression of the Taiping army's charge is not enough, and the number of times the Taiping army rushes to the front has increased greatly, and then he can only be forced to start the most brutal bayonet white-knuckle battle with the Taiping army.

In the fierce battle, the Taiping army's charge and raid could not be suppressed, and the grenade bullets equipped were pitifully few and reluctant to be used casually, and the Wu army under the command of Huang Dasha could only hold up the bayonet and fight hard with the Taiping army, and the Taiping soldiers who stabbed and smashed the bayonets were red, and the Taiping soldiers were experienced in white-knuckle warfare, and the training of the Wu army was strict and tactically coordinated.

Huang Dasha, who had been shot in the stomach, had been bleeding from his wound, but even so, Huang Dasha, who had a straightforward personality, still stabbed two enemies on the opposite side one after another with a bayonet, and kept shouting in his mouth to stabilize the formation, stabilize the formation, and not take a step back. It was only when a large number of enemies gathered on the opposite side that Huang Dasha finally threw a grenade to blow up the enemy, and then pulled out his revolver and fired continuously, killing the Taiping army crowd that was specifically coming at him.

The momentum has been curbed slightly. However, the Taiping soldiers who had summed up a lot of experience in fighting with the Wu army also fought to the death and did not retreat, even if they did not have the opportunity to break up the hedgehog array of the Wu army, they still entangled the Wu army with white-knuckle battles and practiced bravery. Gain time for follow-up reinforcements to get close, and Lin Fengxiang did not hesitate to invest two more battalions of troops in one go. Reinforcement deepened the encirclement of the hedgehog array of the Wu army. The generals of the Taiping Army who led the army to fight were even more pioneers, leading their soldiers to fight endlessly, fighting with Wu Jun Lianyong for life and death with red eyes.

The casualty figure of Wu Jun Lian Yong rose rapidly, and the hollow hedgehog array was almost suppressed into a solid array, but there was still no sign of reinforcements on the Jiangyin side, and Huang Dasha kept yelling, "Hold on!" Hold on! Don't forget how foreign devils fight, are we Han people not even as good as foreign devils? Kill! Kill me! ”

Honest and straightforward, Huang Dasha is not completely unable to use his brains to fight. When the follow-up reinforcements of the Taiping Army came up to rotate and fight, and the crowd gathered, Huang Dasha suddenly shouted: "If there is a grenade, one per person, throw it to me!" ”

Roaring, Huang Dasha threw out a grenade again, and Chief Wu Junshi, who was qualified to equip grenades, also threw out grenades, and more than thirty grenades flew out in all directions, making a loud noise, and bursting out of terrifying shock waves. The soldiers of the Taiping Army screamed in horror and screamed endlessly. Every Wu Jun Lian Yong was extremely sorry in their hearts, because they only had a total of eighty grenades in their hands, and some of them had been used in previous battles. Such an attack can shoot two waves at the top, otherwise, even if all of them are carbines. Wu Jun Lian Yong did not need to be afraid of the enemy on the other side.

Regret is useless, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Taiping army being bombed. Wu Jun Lian Yong immediately launched a counter-charge to regain the position space, and the bayonet stabbed and fired continuously with the revolver. The soldiers of the Taiping Army retreated again and again, and finally re-stabilized the once shaky formation.

Seeing this situation from a distance, Lin Fengxiang was of course furious, and immediately urged the soldiers loudly to continue to charge, and they must not retreat backwards and give up their previous achievements. Wu Ruxiao, who was next to him, was worried, and hurriedly said to Lin Fengxiang: "Prime Minister Lin, the tactics of surpassing the little demon have been very clear, that is, to use this demon army to hook out our main force, so as to be prepared for a decisive battle with us." If we continue to fight like this, we will only be able to surpass the little demon's hands, and we must find another way. ”

"What else can you do?" Lin Fengxiang asked angrily: "Do you want to withdraw now?" Continue to surpass the majesty of the little demon? ”

"It's not a bad thing to show weakness a little." Wu Ruxiao said quickly: "Now withdraw the troops, we still have fortifications to rely on when we retreat, even if we surpass the little demon to fight, we are sure to block him, but if we continue to fight like this, we will suddenly send troops, once the war is unfavorable, it will not be so easy for us to withdraw again." If we're a little unlucky, maybe our fortifications will be crushed by our defeated soldiers! ”

Knowing that Wu Ruxiao was reasonable, Lin Fengxiang was indeed a little shaken, but at this moment, there was a sudden noise from the east gate of Jiangyin in the distance, the closed city gate opened, and the neat queue of Wu Jun Lian Yong strode out of the city, quickly crossing the moat and lining up outside the city. Seeing this scene, Lin Fengxiang yelled almost reflexively: "Raise the flag, let Huang Yifeng charge immediately, don't give a chance to surpass the little demon array!" ”

When the banner was raised, Lin Fengxiang's general Huang Yifeng, who led an army of 1,500 troops to line up outside the east gate of Jiangyin, did not hesitate, and immediately gave a loud order to charge, and the Taiping soldiers under his command also knew that once the Wu army was allowed to practice and form a good battle formation, it would only be more difficult to deal with. However, soon, Huang Yifeng and his subordinates suddenly saw ......

Twenty strange iron pipes suddenly came out of the battle under the protection of forty Wu Jun Lian Yong, the iron pipes more than a foot long were black and not thick, and they were held by one Wu Jun Lian Yong with both hands and pressed to the ground, which seemed to be no threat, but soon, the Taiping soldiers saw that another Wu Jun Lian Yong suddenly put something into those iron pipes. And then ......

Then, of course, it was the first time that the shells of the original grenadiers exploded on the battlefield, and twenty shells filled with picric acid flew out in a parabola, falling into the crowd of Taiping soldiers with white smoke, and violent explosions followed one after another. Accompanied by the flames, of course, there were flames, shrapnel flew wildly, and the soldiers of the Taiping Army who could not dodge were either shot by shrapnel or by the shock wave generated by the explosion, and the particularly unfortunate ones were burned by the picric acid flames, and the screams continued one after another. The stormtroopers were also suddenly staggered.

Knowing that Wu Chaoyue's main force must be extremely difficult to fight, Huang Yifeng was shocked but did not panic. just loudly urged the soldiers to continue the charge, not giving Wu Jun Lian Yong a chance to reload the shells. But Huang Yifeng soon despaired. After a round of shells was fired, Wu Jun Lian Yong immediately loaded new shells into those black iron pipes, and in the light sound, those shells actually flew into the air again, accurately hitting the crowd of the Taiping army, and once again made a terrible explosion.

"The artillery that surpasses the little demon will fire in bursts?!"

Countless Taiping soldiers screamed in disbelief, and Huang Yifeng himself was even more pale, and such a thought flashed subconsciously in his heart, "This battle." It's lost again! ”

It was indeed a loss, in front of the primitive grenadier suddenly used by Wu Jun Lian Yong, the soldiers of the Taiping Army, who were already afraid of the Wu army like a tiger, no longer had the fighting spirit, and the formation dispersed by themselves in order to avoid bullets during the charge, and many people began to turn around and run back. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wu Jun Lian Yong, who was the first to go out of the city, had already lined up the battle queue, covered the grenadier team with a firing pin gun, and Lian Yong who was behind went out of the city endlessly, quickly reinforcing the battle formation. When the Taiping soldiers rushed in front of them, Wu Jun Lianyong, who no longer held back, quickly pulled the trigger one after another, fired a long-cherished pin gun bullet, and repelled the Taiping army in a blink of an eye.

"You have no clothes. The military song of "with the son" also sounded in the Wu army array, the military song was loud, and the neat queue of Wu army practiced Yong like a swimming dragon. A steady stream of people marched from inside the city to outside the city, with the artillery battalion as the vanguard. A zigzag battle formation was quickly discharged in the city, and Wu Chaoyue put his big banner of Wu characters at the front. The three battalions of Wu Jun Lian Yong sang military songs, strode forward, and slaughtered the main force of the Taiping Army that had been successfully lured out of the camp by Huang Dasha's battalion.

The time has come to test the command ability of Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao, although the Taiping Army still has an absolute advantage in terms of strength, but in front of the main force of the Wu Army, which has been gathering momentum for a long time, Lin Fengxiang, who has always been the champion of the three armies, was completely shaken, and he couldn't decide whether to fight this decisive battle with Wu Chaoyue. Wu Ruxiao repeatedly persuaded bitterly, "Prime Minister Lin, you can't hesitate, it is not trivial to surpass the little demon this attack, our army is not well prepared, and the hasty decisive battle is very small, so it is better to withdraw the army first and go back to the camp to take the defensive position to be the most stable." ”

After hesitating for about half a minute, Lin Fengxiang finally stomped his feet and ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops and return to the camp, and immediately arranged the retreat order and the team behind the palace. However, to the surprise of Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao, as soon as their golden gong sounded, the more than 1,000 Taiping troops who were fighting hard with the Wu army's Huang Dasha Department in front of them all immediately rushed backwards, retreating in a hurry as if they had eaten a defeat, revealing a sign of defeat that was bold and cowardly. And Wu Jun Lianyong, who had only more than 200 people left, under the command of Huang Dasha, actually launched a pursuit without hesitation with a bayonet, expelling the defeated soldiers of the Taiping Army who were several times his own as the vanguard, and killed directly towards Lin Fengxiang's banner array.

In order to avoid the flag array being rushed by his own defeated soldiers, the furious Lin Fengxiang immediately ordered to shoot at his own defeated soldiers, but after beating his own defeated soldiers to scatter and flee, Lin Fengxiang opened his mouth and saw that Wu Jun Lianyong, who had suffered heavy casualties, did not stop at all, and continued to charge in the face of the rain of bullets and bullets of the Taiping army, and immediately threw out all the remaining grenades within fifty meters, disrupting the musket team of the Taiping army, and then took the opportunity to rush into the chaotic army and start a white-edged battle with the Taiping army.

It was clear that taking the lead in fleeing at this time would only lead to the complete collapse and chaos of the army, so Lin Fengxiang stubbornly urged the army to step forward to meet the battle, and fought with more than 200 Wu Jun Lianyong. However, with the rapid approach of the main force of the Wu army, more than 200 Wu soldiers practiced bravely and became more and more courageous, but the soldiers of the Taiping Army, who had an absolute advantage in strength, became more and more panicked, and deserters continued to appear in the ranks, but there was the idea of being defeated by Wu Junlian Yong.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Ruxiao could only hurriedly pull Lin Fengxiang and ask him to leave quickly, Lin Fengxiang resolutely refused, and Wu Ruxiao yelled and asked Lin Fengxiang if he wanted to be Wei Changhui's second? Do you want to get back to this field in the future? Lin Fengxiang, who was reprimanded, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, turned his horse's head and retreated to the camp.

The defeat was like a mountain, seeing that Lin Fengxiang took the lead in fleeing for his life, the Chinese army of the Taiping Army, which had begun to be suppressed and beaten by Wu Junlian Yong, collapsed instantly, from top to bottom was fleeing for his life in the same way, and even the Taiping army team with strict formation on both sides was also in chaos, and the generals and soldiers had no desire to fight, and they were all scrambling to flee to the camp. The Wu army led by Huang Dasha Lian Yong clung to the butt of the Taiping Army, and pursued and killed more than once, and Wu Chaoyue in the back also ordered the whole army to speed up. Go and catch the rare fighter plane of the Taiping army returning to the camp in a hurry.

The surging crowd of defeated soldiers quickly flooded the gates of the Taiping army's camps, and you pushed me between them. Even in the daylight, countless Taiping soldiers were trampled to death by their companions. The corpses of the wounded soldiers filled the trenches of the guards, broke the fence and trampled the antlers to pieces, and no matter how much Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao shouted to stop them, it was useless - the sound of orders was completely drowned out in the loud noise.

Fighter planes are rare, Wu Chaoyue decisively ordered the grenadier team to run forward, and poured cannonballs on the heads of the Taiping army, and the result was just as Wu Chaoyue wished, and after suffering like this, the defeated crowd of the Taiping army, which was already in chaos, became countless headless flies, and more camp fortifications were broken during the escape period. Then it destroyed the camp facilities of countless Taiping troops. When the main force of the Wu army arrived in front of the Taiping military camp, the gate of the Taiping military camp, which was once shaped like an iron wall, was already a smooth road, covered with layers of corpses of Taiping army soldiers.

Seeing that the situation was extreme, Lin Fengxiang also completely died with the heart of the Chinese army camp, and listened to Wu Ruxiao's suggestion and went directly to the water village, many smart Taiping soldiers ran faster, and more Taiping soldiers ran around in the camp. Wu Chaoyue chased and killed with his army, and directly took the camp of the Taiping Army, and also cut down Lin Fengxiang's prime minister's banner with his own hands. Wu Jun Lian Yong kept shooting and stabbing the knife, desperately expanding the results of the battle.

At this time, seeing that the victory was decided, the Qing army generals such as Tai Wenying and Li Tianchao also brought the green battalion soldiers to pick up the bargain. Fighting a tailwind battle, slashing and killing the Taiping army, the defeated soldiers were more ruthless and fierce than the Wu army's practice bravery. Tai Wenying, who was the most greedy for merit, also took advantage of the opportunity of Wu Jun's practice to concentrate on searching and killing the remnants of the enemy in the camp, and led the green battalion soldiers directly to the Taiping Army's Shuizhai Wharf, and even shouted the arrogant slogan of capturing Lin Fengxiang alive. Pity......

It's a pity that he was pulled all over the ground by the Taiping army who were fighting the trapped beasts. The soldiers of the Taiping Army, who had no way out, resisted to the death on the dock, and in the blink of an eye, they beat the green battalion of the Qing army, which had negative combat effectiveness, to the ground. Then take the opportunity to board the ship and escape to Jiangxin. rushed twice and was killed by the Taiping army, and Tai Wenying had no choice. can only quickly send someone to ask Wu Chaoyue for help, and ask Wu Chaoyue to quickly bring the army over to help.

It was also when he received Tai Wenying's request for help that Wu Chaoyue, who was carried away by the victory, suddenly woke up, slapped his head and shouted regret, and then hurriedly took Wu Junlian to the dock. But it was too late to do so, not to mention that Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao had already gotten on the warship and fled, even most of the elite soldiers of the Taiping Army had already boarded the ship, and Wu Jun Lian Yong no matter how he shot at the dock, the kills and injuries were all the second-line soldiers of the Taiping Army who had not yet boarded the ship, and it seemed that they had gained a lot, but in fact they did not do much damage to the Taiping Army - they had the support of the people, and such second-line cannon fodder Taiping Army could pull as much as they wanted.

failed to take down the heads of Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao, of course Wu Chaoyue shouted regret, but looking at the Taiping Army fleet that was fleeing upstream, Wu Chaoyue regretted it on his lips, but he snorted coldly in his heart, "Lin Fengxiang, I deliberately spared your life this time." Don't let me down, kill more Eight Flags parasites for me in the future, or you'll be sorry for me! ”

Even if he quietly showed mercy at the last moment, Wu Jun Lianyong's victory in this battle still made Yang Wending and other Manchu officials ecstatic, cutting down nearly 4,000 of them at the head alone, capturing more than 3,000 prisoners, capturing 15 artillery pieces, and incalculable grain and grass baggage. At the same time, because the main force of the Taiping army was defeated and retreated too suddenly, Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao did not even have time to withdraw the army occupying the county seat of Wuxi, as long as the Qing army quickly blocked the narrow and slow Jiangyin Canal, it could turn the lone Taiping army in Wuxi into a turtle in the urn, and another great victory was equivalent to being within reach.

It is worth mentioning that the pedantic talent Huang Zhisheng that Wu Chaoyue used to deceive Lin Fengxiang and Wu Ruxiao was still alive, and he happened to be rescued by Wu Jun Lianyong, and when he was brought to Wu Chaoyue again, Huang Zhisheng also knelt in front of Wu Chaoyue and cried loudly, kowtowing again and again and saying: "Lord Wu, the small one has no moves, the small ones have no moves!" No matter how Long Mao tortured Xiao Sheng, Xiao Sheng didn't change his words, insisting that there was no food in Jiangyin City! ”

"Yes, yes." Wu Chaoyue said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to have such iron bones, yes, you can mix with me in the future, I will try my best to promote you." ”

After appeasing Huang Zhisheng, who was crying bitterly, when it was dark and Wu Chaoyue collected his troops and returned to the city, Yang Wending naturally personally led the civil and military officials of the city to meet Wu Chaoyue's triumphant division in front of the city gate, and said to Wu Chaoyue as soon as they met: "Virtuous grandson-in-law, fight well!" I have already written the good news, and I will send it to the capital tomorrow with an expedited 600 miles, and I will ask Banzai for your credit. ”

Wu Chaoyue smiled, and just wanted to take the initiative to share the credit with Yang Wen, but he didn't think that a few horses suddenly ran in the distance, and the knight led by him also loudly expressed his identity, saying that he was the imperial guard Jingshou, or the Xuanzhi Qincha sent by Emperor Xianfeng. Yang Wending didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly pulled Wu Chaoyue and others to kneel on the ground to receive the order, who knew that as soon as Jing Shou opened the holy decree, he read: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: During the period when Yang Wending, the governor of Jiangsu, supervised Zhenjiang, he was afraid of the enemy and repeatedly urged him to advance, and he fled for his life first when he was in battle, causing the defeat of Zhenjiang and the humiliation of the country. Chin this! ”

Before Jing Shou finished reciting the holy decree, Yang Wending was already completely paralyzed on the ground, and Wu Chaoyue, who was counting on Yang Wending, the top boss to protect himself from disasters, was also a little anxious when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "Lord Qincha, Yang Futai did lose the battle in Zhenjiang, but his strength is too far from the long-haired rebellion, and it is understandable to lose." Also, we have won such a big battle today, isn't it enough to offset his Zhenjiang defeat?! ”

Jing Shou showed a look of embarrassment, first looked left and right, and whispered to remind Wu Chaoyue to hurry up and thank him, and then walked in front of Wu Chaoyue, and said in a low voice: "Lord Wu, the little one is the people of Su Zhongtang, Su Zhongtang wants me to tell you that Zhenjiang lost too badly this time, the emperor Long Yan was angry, and it is impossible for the court to move to Rong, Hechun and Deng Shaoliang, so he is also powerless about Yang Futai's affairs, I hope you understand his hardships." But Lord Wu, you can also rest assured that when Yang Futai arrives in the capital, Su Zhongtang will find another way to save him, and he will never be sentenced too severely. ”

Wu Chaoyue was speechless, in fact, Wu Chaoyue also knew very well in his heart that with Yang Wending's performance on the battlefield of Jiangning and Zhenjiang, Emperor Xianfeng would definitely not wronged him even if he cut him down, but he hoped that Yang Wending would be able to protect him from the wind and rain Wu Chaoyue could protect him, but now he really can't protect it, and Wu Chaoyue has no choice.

After a pause, Jing Shou said in a low voice: "Also, Lord Wu, you went to the fold of asking for military salaries, because the monk Lingqin and Lin Kui were ghosts, not only did the emperor not agree, but there was also a not very good message for me to bring to you." There are a lot of people here, so I won't announce the emperor's dictation for the time being, and I'll talk about it when I get to a secluded place. ”

To change the ordinary Qing officials, even if you don't get scared by the three souls and the six spirits when you hear Jing Shou say this, you have to be scared and frightened, except for Wu Chaoyue, hearing Jing Shou say this, Wu Chaoyue also quietly pursed his lips and said in his heart: "Bullshit!" The mantra of the wild boar skin family is bullshit to me! Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, he wild boar skin IX dares to give Lao Tzu now?! ”
