The Gongyi battalion thundered, thousands of men and horses of the Dian Qi battalion were defeated, and the Xiliang cavalry, which was chasing and killing from behind, according to Wang Kefan's instructions, bit Zhang Xianbi's general flag and finally killed him in the chaos.

Capture the thief and capture the king first, as soon as Zhang Xianbi died, the army of the Dian Qi battalion collapsed, Wang Kefan swept Yongxin County with the Gongyi battalion, and drove all the remnants of the Dian Qi battalion back to Hunan.

The quality of the Dian Qi battalion is too bad, Wang Kefan has no interest in co-opting them, if He Tengjiao takes the opportunity to disband this garbage army, he can save more than 100,000 taels of silver every year, it may not be a good thing for Hunan, the snake has no head, and the defeat of more than 10,000 remnants of the army will soon be swallowed up by other warlords, and there will not be much chaos.

After the news of the fire and the Dian Qi camp reached Changsha, it caused an uproar in the Huguang officialdom.

This is not the first time, when Wang Kefan was in Yuezhou Mansion, he merged Hei Yunchang and Ma Jiaolin, but the two generals of Hei Ma had surrendered to the Manchus in advance, the evidence was conclusive, and everyone couldn't say anything. However, the Dian Qi battalion is a loyal imperial court official army, and the official army fights the official army, what is going on?

Wang Kefan was outraged.

All of a sudden, the civil officials were indignant, and the military generals were all in danger, and they went to He Tengjiao together to severely punish Wang Kefan, and even Du Yinxi criticized Wang Kefan's behavior in public, and wrote a long letter in private, and sent someone to the Gongyi Camp in Yongxin County.

This letter took a lot of thought on Gu Yinxi, and there were severe criticisms of Wang Kefan, heartfelt advice, and ...... understanding of his difficult situation, and a thousand words were combined into one sentence, starting from the overall situation, enduring humiliation and burden, reining in the edges and corners of the edges, and avoiding making enemies everywhere.

Wang Kefan's reply was only four words: Don't take it as an example.

Du Yinxi was honest with him, and he didn't want to defend himself more. Besides, Plug Yinxi didn't wronged him...... When Wang Kefan entered the boundary of Yongxin County, he had already taken a fancy to this territory, and he had a calculating plan Zhang Xianbi, and Liu Shu's appearance was just a coincidence, which gave him a chance to quickly solve the Dian Qi camp.

Attacks on other civilian and military generals must be counterattacked.

After he knew Liu Shu's identity, he immediately sent someone to send her to Changsha Mansion to meet He Tengjiao.

He Tengjiao is in a dilemma.

From the bottom of his heart, he already hated Wang Kefan very much, not only did this person not respect orders. repeatedly challenged his authority, and this time he even attacked the Dian Qi camp and killed Zhang Xianbi. Who in the Huguang officialdom doesn't know that Zhang Xianbi is a dog he raised, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog. Wang Kefan killed Zhang Xianbi, which was equivalent to a heavy slap in He Junmen's face.

In order to maintain their own prestige. He must severely punish Wang Kefan.

But reason told him. You can't persecute Wang Kefan too much. The Gongyi battalion is brave and good at fighting, far beyond his expectations, even his first general, Hao Shaoqi, is quite afraid of the Gongyi battalion. After the Gongyi battalion left Jiangxi, one did not want to be paid, and the other was not to be paid (if he wanted it, he would not give it). has been out of his control, if Wang Kefan is severely punished, he may really force this group of people to rebel.

In case the Gongyi battalion surrendered to the Manchus, it turned around and killed Huguang. The consequences are dire......

When there was nothing to be done, Liu Shu suddenly appeared.

With the appearance of Liu Shu, the direction of public opinion in Huguang's officialdom suddenly turned a 180-degree turn, and no military officials scolded Zhang Xianbi for killing himself, and expressed extreme spurning for him.

Liu Shu's father died in the hands of the eunuch Wei Zhongxian, this is the highest glory of the literati, is the predecessor martyr of the Donglin Restoration Society, Zhang Xianbi, a vulgar general, actually used force to force Zhongliang, to accept her as a concubine, this is an insult to the entire Donglin Party, it is simply lustful, crazy, and the toad wants to eat swan meat......

Huguang Wenwu didn't care about the life or death of the Ji'an volunteers, but Liu Shu's identity was too special, so all the voices accusing Wang Kefan kept their mouths shut, and praised him instead.

The dust settled.

He Tengjiao soon issued an official document, announcing that Zhang Xianbi died in the anti-Qing battlefield and died bravely, and had asked the Longwu court for rewards and commendations, and the Dian Qi battalion was withdrawn to Changsha and reorganized to join the Huguang Governor Battalion...... At the same time, he criticized Wang Kefan a few words without pain, to the effect that he was ineffective in cooperating with friendly forces, which led to Zhang Xianbi's sacrifice, and then ordered him to take over the Dian Qi camp and guard Yongxin County, which was the barrier of Hunan and the front line of resistance to the Qing Dynasty......

Liu Shu ignored the retention of Huguang Wenwu and insisted on returning to his hometown Ji'an to resist the Qing Dynasty...... A few days later, she returned to Yongxin County with the supplies, only to find that the Gongyi battalion was making preparations for the requisition.

Camp Gongyi is leaving?

Liu Shu immediately found Wang Kefan.

"General Wang, where are you going?"

"Go fight the Tartars!"

"I'm going too, I still have more than a thousand volunteers under my command to help......" Liu Shu was halfway through her speech, and suddenly stopped talking.

She had seen the performance of the Gongyi battalion on the battlefield with her own eyes, as if it was devastating, and easily defeated the Dian Qi battalion, and the Ji'an volunteers under her command were too far away to really help much.

"The volunteers under your command still need to be trained well, and if you want to kill the Tartars, there will be opportunities in the future." Wang Kefan was blunt, a little embarrassed to see Liu Shu's appearance, and said with a smile: "When the war is fought, it is also divided into the front and rear, and you stay in Yongxin, which will be of greater help to the Gongyi Battalion." ”

"Oh, really?" Liu Shu's eyes lit up.

"Yes, there are dozens of injuries in the Gongyi Battalion, so stay in Yongxin to help me take care of it, and I can also help you train your troops." Wang Kefan said: "And Fan Wenqin also stayed here, help me take care of him......"

Fan Wenqin seemed to be the leader of Jiangxi's resistance to the Qing Dynasty, and the volunteers everywhere regarded him as a banner, and if Fan Wenqin had any accidents, it would have a great impact on the situation of Jiangxi's anti-Qing struggle.

The puppet has to eat and drink well, and he has to be careful not to let him escape.

"General Wang, if you leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep Yongxin." Liu Shu was very worried, there were still thousands of Qing army green battalions in Ji'an Prefecture, and after the Gongyi battalion left, if the Qing army attacked in a big way, her volunteers might not be able to resist it.

"It's okay, if you can't keep it, don't stick to it." Wang Kefan said: "If the Qing army comes to attack, you will take everyone to retreat to Yongning, take root in the mountains, and wait for us to come back......"

Yongning, which was later known as Jinggangshan City, the Central Soviet District, and the revolutionary base area, was very close to Yongxin County.

For a period of time in the future, the Qing army will still occupy the offensive, and Hunan and Jiangxi are both battlefields, and creating a base area in Jinggangshan is of great significance to the Gongyi battalion. (To be continued......)
