There is a way that the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, in the big victory pass, the Wu army Feng Sanbao who was like a bamboo all the way almost suffered a defeat, and paid a far greater price than the advance to win the big victory pass, although the victory is still defeated, the gains outweigh the losses.

The key reason for the poor progress is that the enemy is underestimated, bullying the big victory Guancheng is small, the artillery fire of the water division is prepared for less than half an hour, and the land division can't wait to launch an attack, but he doesn't know that the big victory pass is the river defense fortress of Nanjing since the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming and Qing dynasties have been operating here as a military town, and the Taiping army has spent a lot of effort to renovate and strengthen after the capital of Nanjing, and the fortification of the city is comparable to that of an ordinary county town, so the artillery fire of the Wu army and the water division did not kill and wound too many defenders in the pass, Wu Jun Lu Shi, who didn't know what was going on, bumped into his head stupidly, and naturally hit a big bag on his head immediately.

There is also a key reason that the Wu army is destined to suffer, the Nanjing Taiping Army is equipped with a large number of mini guns to fight, although the technology has gradually aged the mini gun in the field is not the opponent of the firing gun, but in the defensive battle with fortifications, the mini gun can play a higher advantage of shooting accuracy than the firing pin gun, and accurately hit the enemy in the lack of protection, and the actual combat effect is better than the firing pin gun. Underestimating the enemy's carelessness and the fact that the enemy is more powerful than imagined, it is difficult for the Southwest Wu Army, which was born as a bandit, not to suffer losses.

In the fierce battle, the southwest Wu army, which was too light on the enemy, first hit a head under the wall of Dasheng Pass, and then suffered losses in the long-range firepower one after another, and was overturned by the enemy's high-precision Mini guns one after another, and the casualties were quite large, and at the same time, the front army was a little greedy for merit, and refused to retreat prematurely for the sake of merit and face, and re-prepared firepower, which increased the unnecessary casualties, so in the first frontal assault alone, the casualties of the Wu army exceeded 150 people, and finally had to retreat in embarrassment.

Then, the Wu army that learned the lesson took another hour to prepare for firepower, and bombarded the small city of Dashengguan to a thousand holes, but it still failed to hit the defenders in the pass, and still encountered stubborn resistance when attacking head-on, and still failed to win the Dashengguan after more than two hours of strong attack, and finally after the Wu army's naval division covered the Taiping army with artillery fire to defeat the reinforcements sent by the Taiping army from Nanjing, the Wu army's demoman was very lucky to seize the opportunity, and used explosives to blow up the gate of Dashengguan, and the Wu army paid a heavy price to rush into the pass. In total, there were only more than 600 people in the Great Shengguan garrison, and when they saw that there was no hope for support, they took the initiative to abandon the pass and leave, although they were defeated, they retreated.

After the war, the statistics made the faces of the generals of the Wu army feverish, the Wu army lost more than 400 people before and after, sacrificed more than 20 demomen who had been trained with great difficulty, and consumed a lot of valuable ammunition, but the number of enemies destroyed was just over 200, and the casualty ratio set the most humiliating record since the Wu army in the southwest entered the war. So even after winning the big victory over Guancheng, Feng Sanbao still lost his temper, and scolded Li Dingtai, the general of the Hunan Wu Army who commanded the siege, and several generals who participated in the battle, and asked: "It's so hard to fight such a small Guancheng, how can you fight Jiangning City?" If this is the case when I fight Jiangning, I don't think I need to fight, even if I lose all the army, I am afraid I will not be able to enter Jiangning City! ”

"Junmen, the generals have done their best." A Hunan battalion officer who led the army into the battle said with a sad face: "It was the long-haired foreign guns that were too accurate and the fortifications too strong, so we fought so hard." ”

"Feng Junmen, we are too embarrassed to fight, but we really didn't expect that Longhair would have so many Mini guns." Another battalion officer also said with a sad face: "The last general has roughly estimated on the front line, and in the small city of Dashengguan alone, there are at least more than a hundred mini guns. ”

"How many Minnie guns can be in such a small gate?" Feng Sanbao, who did not come to the front line to watch the battle in person, said suspiciously: "How is it possible?" Dashengguan is just a peripheral camp, can there be so many foreigners' Mini guns? ”

"The military gate, the last general and so on don't dare to lie, there are really so many." Li Dingtai, a general of the Wu army who commanded the siege, said truthfully: "The last general carefully counted when he was supervising the battle on the front line, and there were no less than 150 mini guns seen in the telescope alone, and the last general also saw with his own eyes that several long hairs were still holding repeating revolvers. ”

"Really?"

Feng Sanbao was stunned and asked again, Li Dingtai and the others hurriedly nodded to confirm, Feng Sanbao looked at his right-hand man Li Hezhang in surprise, Li Hezhang understood what Feng Sanbao meant, and said: "Uncle, if the long hair in the Great Victory Pass really has such good equipment, then it is not surprising that we suffer a loss, after all, the king of Zhennan and the foreign instructor have said that the Minny gun is actually more accurate than our firing pin gun, and it is most suitable for defensive warfare." ”

Feng Sanbao finally stopped talking, and after thinking for a while, Feng Sanbao first waved his hand to let Li Dingtai and the others go down to rest, and then ordered: "Set up camp at Dasheng Pass, make a long-term plan in the deep ditch and high base, send more scouts and carefully to probe the enemy's situation, first find out the specific situation of Jiangning Changmao, and then consider attacking." ”

The generals promised that the Southwest Wu Army, which had not suffered setbacks since the departure from Hukou Wharf, also put away the idea of underestimating the enemy, honestly built a strong camp at Dasheng Pass, first established a foothold, and at the same time sent a large number of scouts and meticulous reconnaissance of the enemy's situation, no longer risked a light advance, and hastily attacked other camps of the Taiping Army in Nanjing outside the city.

Although Feng Sanbao's decision was correct, it inevitably helped Meng Deen and Shi Dakai and others a big favor, after finding out that the Wu army suffered a lot of casualties and chose to set up camp in Dasheng Guan, Meng Deen, who agreed with Shi Dakai and Yang Xiuqing's judgment, naturally had more to say before Hong Xiu's comprehensiveness, and persuaded Hong Xiuquan to let Li Xiucheng let go of the attack on Shanghai, and because the Wu army did not dare to immediately enter the city, Hong Xiuquan finally nodded and accepted Meng Deen's suggestion, and did not issue a third holy decree within a day, forcing Li Xiucheng to immediately return to Nanjing, It was decided to see the situation first, and then give Li Xiucheng some time to attack Shanghai.

Two days later, after gradually learning about the specific situation of the Taiping Army in Nanjing through various light and dark channels, Feng Sanbao and Li Hezhang gradually understood that the lone army of the Liberty Army had taken a bad step in penetrating into the army, turning more than 10,000 southwest Wu troops into a useless stupid army, which had no strength to capture the city of Nanjing, and had to set up a camp to protect itself, and it was impossible to do anything about the empty consumption of grain and grass, and at the same time, it was difficult to achieve the established goal of encircling Wei and saving Zhao to share the pressure on the Wu army in Shanghai.

After gradually understanding this, the two dog-headed military divisions Li Hezhang and Ding Baozhen were of course big-eyed and small-eyed, and Feng Sanbao was also a little sad, regretting that he did not choose to attack Wuwei City with all his might, and then joined forces with Cao Yanzhong, who had a strong army, to march westward. At the same time, Feng Sanbao, who was indeed here to share the pressure of the Wu army in Shanghai, inevitably began to worry about the safety of his allies, and asked Li Hezhang and Ding Baozhen: "Virtuous nephew, Zhihuang, you say that we are just setting up camp here in Dashengguan to protect ourselves, can we force Li Xiucheng's long-haired main force to return to Jiangning as soon as possible, so that our Shanghai side can turn the crisis into safety?" ”

Li Hezhang and Ding Baozhen smiled bitterly together, and after exchanging a few glances with each other, Li Hezhang said curtly: "Uncle forgiveness, I'm afraid it's difficult, unless we can give Changmao a heavy weight, so that Changmao in Jiangning City feels dangerous, otherwise as long as Hong Xiuquan Dachangmao is not confused, he will not rush to force Li Xiucheng to save Jiangning." ”

"Is there any way to make the longhair heavier again?" Feng Sanbao asked.

"This ......." Li Hezhang and Ding Baozhen's expressions were even more embarrassed, and after hesitating for a long time, Ding Baozhen said very reluctantly: "Only by finding a way to fight a field battle with Changmao, we are sure to win a field battle with Changmao, and then fight the battle beautifully, Changmao will know that he is in a hurry." ”

After that, Ding Baozhen said even more reluctantly: "If the military gate wants to ask how to lure the enemy into battle, then the lower official has only one way that is not very sure, divide the troops to lure the enemy, divide a partial division and pretend to be the main force, cross the river to the north bank to fight Jiuhuanzhou and Jiangpu, and leave the elite main force to guard the camp at Dasheng Pass, disguised as a second-line army. If Longhair is fooled, it is possible to fight. ”

"Will Longhair be fooled over there?" Feng Sanbao said with some worry: "If Long Hair is not fooled, we will toss around like this, which hurts morale?" ”

Ding Baozhen didn't dare to speak, but Li Hezhang said after careful consideration: "Uncle, the little nephew thinks that it is absolutely impossible for Brother Zhihuang to lure the snake out of the hole to deceive Shi Dakai and the like, but as long as we deceive Hong Xiuquan alone, Brother Zhihuang's plan to lure the enemy will definitely have hope of success." ”

"As long as you deceive Hong Xiuquan, you will be sure of it?" Feng Sanbao asked in surprise: "Then Shi Dakai can't talk and won't remind him that he is a trap?" Won't you persuade him not to be fooled? ”

"Of course, Shi Dakai and these people will persuade and remind, but Hong Xiuquan may not listen." Li Hezhang said in a deep voice: "Hong Xiuquan is not only very suspicious, but also stubborn and likes to say everything, so the little nephew thinks that as long as he can deceive him, he feels that he should take the opportunity to send troops to counterattack the victory pass, even if Shi Dakai opposes him, he will not listen." ”

"Can Zhihuang fool Hong Xiuquan with long hair?" Feng Sanbao asked again.

"This ......, the little nephew can't guarantee it, because the little nephew really doesn't know how much ability Hong Xiuquan, the big long hair, has in fighting." Li Hezhang didn't dare to play this guarantee, and said with great confidence: "However, the little nephew feels that in addition to using Brother Zhihuang's methods to lure the enemy, if you add some other means specifically aimed at Hong Xiuquan, the certainty may be greater." ”

"Other means specifically aimed at Hong Xiuquan? What means? Feng Sanbao asked.

"At the same time as dividing the troops, let Brother Zhihuang send someone to Jiangning City to surrender." Li Hezhang said with a little weakness: "Let's just say that Brother Zhihuang dreamed that his Heavenly Father went down to earth, and asked him to convert to the long-haired worship of God, and asked Hong Xiuquan to accept Brother Zhihuang's surrender, and then said that the troops here in Dashengguan were empty, and asked Hong Xiuquan to hurry up and send troops to fight Dashengguan ......." ”

"Ridiculous! Nonsense! ”

Before Li Hezhang could finish speaking, Feng Sanbao had already interrupted with a scolding, and then reprimanded: "It's just nonsense, there is such a deception plan in the world?" ”

"The little nephew also thinks it's ridiculous." Li Hezhang admitted it frankly, and said: "However, compared with the God Worship Sect founded by Hong Xiuquan, the little nephew feels that this method is relatively normal. And the little nephew thinks that with Hong Xiuquan's ridiculous nonsense character, maybe he will fall for this ridiculous nonsense. ”

Feng Sanbao still scoffed, and Li Hezhang didn't dare to insist, but said: "Uncle, things have come to this point, our army is not idle here in Dasheng Pass, it is better to use Brother Zhihuang's plan to lure the snake out of the hole, and then it is of course best to lure Changmao out of the city to fight, if not, we will find another way to lure the enemy." Anyway, if we work hard, it is our luck to succeed, and not being able to succeed will have little impact on us, the big deal is to withdraw the army to continue to defend the big victory. ”

Feng Sanbao hesitated, and only after a while did he say, "I'll think about it carefully." ”nt
