Zhang Youcai didn't know that his eldest son was no longer in the 15th Brigade at this time, but had just been transferred to the 2nd Brigade of the Hunan Army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info sent something back this time, and the letter in the middle of it wrote about it, but Zhang Youcai didn't open the package, so naturally I don't know. Moreover, Zhang Dashan had just become a squad leader in the old unit, and when he arrived in the new unit, he was promoted to platoon commander again.

It's a great event!

As for why the troops were suddenly adjusted, Zhang Dashan did not hide it from his family. The Second Brigade of the Hunan Army was deployed on the Western Front, dealing with the retreat to Xiangxi and the border troops transferred from Yunnan and Guizhou, and the Qing Army not only had more men but also strong troops, and they also occupied a geographical advantage, and the Second Brigade was responsible for the fact that there were no major rivers connecting with each other, and it was inconvenient to transfer troops and supply military supplies, and the combined pressure on the Second Brigade was far greater than that of the First Brigade of the Army, and the casualties were naturally greater. To put it bluntly, such an adjustment is to mobilize a number of low-level officers to supplement the Second Brigade.

Since Chen Ming's revival of the Han army crossed the mouth of the lake and went straight down to the south of the Yangtze River, the officers and soldiers of the Chen and Han dynasties in Hunan have fallen into a dire straits.

This is a helpless thing, the mobile forces of the Fu Han army have gone east, and the battlefield in the south is naturally empty.

First of all, Ben Jinzhong, who was hiding in Xiangxi, immediately sent troops to attack Changde and Lizhou, and He Erhu, the commander of the Second Brigade of the Hunan Army sitting in Changde, was tired of coping. Guangxi's soldiers and horses and Yungui's soldiers and horses also sent troops to attack Baoqing and Yongzhou, the former was once controlled by Chen Han in addition to the capital city, and the rest of the county has fallen all over the place.

Throughout March, the most common news heard in Changsha and Yueyang was that which county seat was broken again, and this time the county officials did not escape; The officials in any county are dead...... and so on.

The men and horses of Guangdong also joined the army of Guangxi to attack southern Hunan, and the first brigade of the Hunan army held Chenzhou on one side and reinforced Yongzhou on the other side. The busy one is the 15th Brigade in Hengyang.

Zhao Yongji is not stupid, and he knows that his fists must be clenched together to fight out to have strength. The troops of the 15th Brigade were never dispersed, and when the troops from Guangxi entered Yongzhou, they carried the entire brigade of soldiers and horses and beat them with a fist; Yungui's troops entered Baoqing, and then raised troops to Baoqing to fight out; Then there was Ben Jinzhong, and Zhao Yongji took the 15th Brigade to directly knock on the gateway to western Hunan - Chenzhou Yuanling.

After such a hard work, the situation in Hunan persisted until the news that Chen Ming led the troops to wrap all the main forces of the Qing army in Jiangnan led by Feng Sheng's forehead in Changzhou came, and the morale of the officers and soldiers in Hunan instantly soared, and the corresponding offensive of the Qing army in Guangxi and southwest China 'brushed' down. Even Ben Jinzhong is no longer wasted!

But when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and there are many Qing soldiers, and there are always individual ones.

Liu Fei, who had already sat in the position of Baojing garrison, was a good hand at picking persimmons and picking soft ones, and said to others: "Chen Thief is in full swing, don't you take advantage of their small numbers and weak strength to beat them well, do you have to wait until Chen Rei's brigade turns back before fighting?" ”

At the beginning of April, he once again broke through Baima Pass and led his bandits to besiege Taoyuan County. Taoyuan County is the poorest and westernmost county among the counties under Changde. It has been broken by the Qing army four times before, and one of the magistrates has died, and the current magistrates have been in office for less than ten days.

The essence of Changde is all along the coast of Dongting Lake, but there is a water division of the Fu Han Army in Dongting Lake, and in March, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion set up a new battalion of water division recruits in Yueyang, Liu Fei did not dare to pay attention to Changdedong, unless the Jinzhong Brigade followed behind, otherwise with his current small body, the garrison of Changde Mansion City could eat him.

April 12th.

There was a sudden burst of cheers in Taoyuan County, first a few people, and then a rapid increase in the number of people, just like a mountain and a tsunami. Zhang Dashan, who had been on duty all night in the city last night, woke up from his deep sleep.

"What's wrong? So loud? ”

If it weren't for the cheers, Zhang Dashan would have thought that the city was broken.

"Platoon commander, platoon commander......, win, Your Highness won, Changzhou won, all the Qing soldiers in it have been wiped out......"

The voice of the second squad leader sounded outside the house, and Zhang Dashan's head, which was still in a daze, suddenly came to his senses. The whole person jumped up from the bed, and he didn't have time to put on his shoes. "Really? Did you really eat them all? The second squad leader stood at his door.

"That can still fool you. The little 100,000 Qing troops were all eaten! Feng Sheng's forehead and Yin Jishan committed suicide by taking poison, and none of the Tartar officials below them escaped. He also surrendered to a governor, who opened the gates of the city. The second squad leader's grin is about to reach behind his ears.

Zhang Dashan happily showed his gums, "The admirals have surrendered?" Ben Jinzhong is a commander. This is the boss and the boss. "Only with contrast can we have a clearer understanding. Ben Jinzhong's influence on Hunan is very important, so naturally, Duan Xiulin's weight is regarded very seriously by Zhang Dashan.

The second squad leader's gums were also exposed, "Not really." Then the boss's officials have surrendered, which shows that the Han King Lu Gong has achieved great success. And along with this news, there is also a reward from the King of Han, not only for the army in the east, but also ours, for the whole army. Each person is paid a month's salary, and the military family can also receive a large package. It was all cloth, and there were four new cans of tin food. "When the second squad leader said this, his eyes were glowing golden. Let Zhang Dashan not know that he is more excited about the victory in Changzhou? Or are you more happy with the Han King's reward for the whole army? And Zhang Dashan himself was irrepressibly excited when he heard it.

Cloth is something that every family needs, and this year, the military cooperative will mainly plant cotton after the beginning of spring. Zhang Dashan hoped that after serving for two years, he would be able to exchange points for land, and then he would also join the military cooperative. That guy has the face of Lu Gong, and the grain, cotton, and soybeans produced are not short of sales at all. And canned food, this is another new invention of Chen Ming. This thing is not difficult for Chen Ming, a traverser, at all, to process the food, put it in a jar, put it in a pot of boiling water and heat it for an hour, plug it tightly with a cork while it is hot, and then strengthen it with a thread, and seal it with wax. Chen Ming had already 'invented' canned food, and he also made a stronger tin can, which was later used in the preservation of dry food for the military.

It's just that the conditions didn't allow it at the beginning, so there was no fanfare for canning.

Now that the foundation of the Fu Han Army has been consolidated, canned food has become a member of the military supplies of the Fu Han Army. Whether it is canned fruits, canned vegetables, or the rarest canned meat and fish, Zhang Dashan has seen and tasted it, I can't say how delicious it is, but it is better than a convenient but true.

has been in the army for so long, and Zhang Dashan's influence on his family has not changed much. Even Zhang Li sent several letters to him in the army, saying that the family had a lot of good life and was ready to build a house, but Zhang Dashan didn't go back again, didn't see it with his own eyes, and always didn't believe it in his heart. He subconsciously felt that it was very difficult at home, and his daily food could not be compared with that in the army, so he wanted his family to eat better, and sent a few cans of canned food back, but he didn't know when it was stuck in his heart. Even if it's just for the family to eat a meal or two.

He has always wanted to change a few cans of canned food to send home, this thing is quite rare, change a few cans of Jiangnan flavor, so that his parents and brothers can also try it.

But canned food is also a rare thing in the army, and you can't get it even if you have money. When he was in the 15th Brigade, he was a little Shopee, and the people in the logistics department didn't show him. When I came to the Second Brigade of the Army, it was a new unit, and I was not familiar with the place, so this wish was never fulfilled.

Now King Han's commendation has invisibly fulfilled Zhang Dashan's wish. The second squad leader looked at his platoon leader, and his eyes were as bright as two small torches!

Liu Fei could hear the sudden cheers in the city outside Taoyuan County, and the cheers became louder and louder, and he was shocked in his heart, and immediately ordered the troops to be guarded, he thought that the reinforcements of the Fuhan Army had arrived.

As a bandit leader in the mountains of Xiangxi, Liu Fei, who is now Chinese New Year's Eve five years old, is a chess piece sown by the secret camp.

The secret camp funded him with 3,000 taels of silver before and after, and asked him to take this opportunity to change his face, but Liu Fei only handed him 500 taels and got a sesame big title. But don't look at Liu Fei's low official hat, there are a lot of soldiers under him, and there are three or four hundred old bandits under him, otherwise how could the secret camp choose him among so many bandit leaders in Xiangxi. Now it is getting stronger and stronger, although it is only a battalion garrison, the strength under his command has swelled to 1,45.

Now only half of Liu Fei's subordinates are counted in Taoyuan County, and the other half stay in Baima Pass. Of course, half of the six or seven hundred people outside Taoyuan County were scattered by him to rob the people.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty......"

Chen Wei shouted in the city, and their troops to the east took Changzhou. General Feng Sheng'e and Governor Yin Jishan both committed suicide by poisoning, and the 100,000 troops in the city either died or surrendered, and none of them escaped. ”

The person who came was Liu Fei's report, Liu Fei had hooked up with the Fu Han Army, and his subordinates were not ignorant at all. But everyone who knows is Liu Fei's henchman. The person in front of him was just a spy sent out by Liu Fei, and after hearing the news of the 'sky falling', he hurriedly came back to report the news, and he was still panicked.

What's more, this little soldier was panicked, and when he heard that Changzhou had fallen, Feng Sheng's forehead and Yin Jishan committed suicide, and the 100,000 troops in Jiangnan either died or surrendered, Liu Fei's mind was empty, and his heart was also like a drum.

It took a long time to settle down. But before Liu Fei had time to consider the impact of this incident and whether he wanted to get along with the Fu Han Army in the future, there was a sudden emergency report outside.

"My lord, the Chen thief in Taoyuan City has sent troops......" is at this juncture.

Liu Fei's frowning brows can kill mosquitoes, and he really can't wait to kick the civil and military forces of Taoyuan County to death. It's a mess!

If it was a quarter of an hour in the morning, Liu Fei would immediately order troops out of the camp and make an example of the Fu Han army, police and some militiamen who came out of Taoyuan. But where does he still have this mind now? Yes, he was very angry with Taoyuan County's 'robbery' while it was hot, and he wanted to lead someone to directly overthrow them. But this confidence is insufficient, Liu Fei's heart has countless thoughts flipped, like a mess of wool that can't find a head, he needs to be quiet now, cold his brain, and think about the future. Instead of knocking back the people of Taoyuan County with a stick of 'hard bang'.

Bearing back his anger, Liu Fei faced Taoyuan County's 'provocation' and chose to 'close the door'. "Send someone to greet the fifth and seventh children, let them rush back at noon, and we will withdraw to Baima Pass in the afternoon." Liu Fei waved his hand, asked a few of his soldiers to lead people to guard, and then beckoned his relatives to order.

The Fu Han army outside the camp did not kick their noses in the face, and they deceived people too much. Just shouted and howled outside the camp of the Qing army, put a few rows of guns, and went back happily.

The reason why the officers stationed in Taoyuan and Taoyuan Xinzhi County dared to send troops was entirely because the county town was a little crazy because of the sudden good news. The cheers could no longer express the joy in the hearts of the officers and men, and as soon as the interest came up, they went out to play around.

Zhang Dashan stood in front of the queue, looking at Liu Fei who was closed in front of him, and the wind that reverberated in his chest became even more intense. Liu Fei's retreat is really too appropriate for the situation, too much of their sharpness.

"When we are hard, the tartars are soft!" Zhang Dashan, clenched his fists, yelled.

The time he came to the Second Brigade of the Hunan Army was very timely. Just in time for the great change in the situation, Ben Jinzhong retreated, and Liu Fei's attack on Changde was mainly looting, rather than storming the city. Before coming to the Second Brigade, Zhang Dashan thought that he would immediately go to the battlefield with a bayonet as soon as he arrived in Changde. And after arriving in Changde, the team he belonged to did quickly leave Fucheng and switched positions with the troops stationed in Taoyuan. But he didn't know at all, all he had to do was face a bandit leader to defend Taoyuan City. Instead of completely annihilating that bandit leader!

……

In the house of the Yahou of Changde Mansion.

Xu Yongmin did not let his subordinates serve, and there were no three bowls and four cups of seven meats and eight vegetables on the small round table, which were the simplest home-cooked dishes, Xu Yongmin's wife and their children who were not yet ten years old, just a simple family of four people sitting around.

Xu Yongmin lost the majesty when he was outside, and he drank and sang at the dinner table, as if he was crazy. Elegantly, it is said to be a 'wandering wreckage'. But Mrs. Xu, who came from a family of talents, did not persuade him, because she knew how great the pressure her husband had been under since taking office.

The Qing army outside and the local gentry and merchants in Changde, the heavy pressure on the outside and the inside is like the waves of Dongting Lake, wave after wave, never stopping.

Xu Yongmin stood up and survived. Until today, the good news came, and he finally waited for the good news he dreamed of - Changzhou reported the victory. The main force of the Qing army in Jiangnan was completely annihilated by Lu Gong! Even if Mrs. Xu is a woman, she understands what this means, and her husband has unloaded more than half of his heavy burden.

"Hahaha, who said that Chen Han can't become a big tool? Rats are eye-catching, rat-eyed are light. ”

"His Royal Highness has gone down to Changzhou, Suzhou and Hangzhou are in hand, try to look at the southern country, who else can be the opponent? Who else? ”

The crisis of raiding the family and exterminating the clan has completely disappeared in Xu Yongmin's heart, and at this moment he firmly believes that the future of the Fu Han Army must be bright and brilliant than anyone else, and he is extremely proud of his original gamble. In that big gamble in life, he Xu Yongmin won the bet! (To be continued.) )
