Chapter 400: Your Excellency, Your Excellency

[Thanks to 'There is a green onion' 1888 reward]

In the artillery fire in the sky, a sharp whistle came into the attack position, a bald officer of the Fu Han Army suddenly straightened up from the trench, turned over and jumped out of the trench, although he could not hear what he was shouting, but his appearance of drawing his sword and waving it immediately aroused the fierce strength of the soldiers of the Fu Han Army waiting for the order on the attack position, two or three hundred soldiers of the Fu Han Army straightened up, held bayonets, held spears, and rushed towards the urn city with a hissing shout. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this moment, the big east gate, the city wall tower connected to the urn city outside, has long been in ruins. The attacking soldiers stepped on the gravel and rushed directly to the city.

When they were still two hundred meters away from the urn city, the artillery began to extend and fire into the gate. The Qing army also immediately increased its troops to the city, and the soldiers of the Fu Han army who rushed up on broken stones were like two red and green torrents rushing in opposite directions, splashing fierce blood flowers.

The two sides began hand-to-hand combat, and the Qing army, of course, was not an opponent. Although they are outnumbered. In the face of the strong, well-trained and iron-clad soldiers of the Fu Han Army, the Qing army and the people were still not opponents.

The Fu Han army held bayonets against the Qing army and captured the urn city, and then the Great East Gate. The Qing army was obviously far outnumbered by the Fu Han army, but it was defeated and retreated.

The bayonets were bright, the butts of the guns were flying sideways, and the Qing army was defeated and retreated under the white-knuckle battle. One by one, corpses fell on the head of the city, there were green battalions, there were people brave, as well as training troops, standard battalions and even flag soldiers. Large strands of blood gushed out from the stabbed wound, and even the intestines could be seen flowing out of the wound.

Zenghai personally put on his armor and came to Yushan to supervise the formation. He personally cut off the head of a defeated Green Battalion general, but there was no use for any eggs. The Qing army could not withstand the Han army, that is, it could not resist. Zenghai personally supervised the battle, and the little touch and morale boost brought to the Qing army could not save the overall situation at all.

"General, the Great East Gate can't be defended......" Baozhu, the deputy general of the Guangzhou City Garrison, looked at Zenghai with begging eyes. If Dadongmen continues to fight like this, the five battalions of soldiers under him will all be filled in.

Zeng Hai didn't speak, clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turned white, and he looked at the big east gate with a murderous sound, and closed his eyes helplessly. In hand-to-hand combat, they are not the opponents of the Fu Han army, they are really not opponents! 、

The Fu Han army only put two batches of troops in front and back to the Great East Gate, less than 1,000 people, and the Qing army that was garrisoned by at least three or four thousand people was defeated and retreated, and Zenghai put two battalions of reinforcements there, but the situation did not change at all......

After forty minutes of hand-to-hand combat, the thousands of Qing troops at the Great East Gate were defeated and swarmed to retreat towards Yushan. The battlefield floor was almost washed with blood, and the corpses fell to the ground, the red liquid flowing in every inch of the land.

The attacking troops of the Fu Han army did not stop at all, and continued to attack the city of Guangzhou.

Yang Zhengjie was lying on the ground tired, don't look at the time he led the team to the East Sect to retreat to the East Gate, it was less than a morning, but the fierce and tense battle had already emptied all his spirit and strength.

Closing his eyes, Yang Zhengjie couldn't sleep. There were only about 500 men left in his ranks, half as small as before. And these people are the most capable team in his hands, and the entire orthographic battalion is like a little chicken that has been destroyed by a storm, and his soul is scattered. Facing the Fu Han Army, Yang Zhengjie can still clearly remember a few faces full of excitement - such a soldier is happy when he hears the battle, and he is a hero and fearless.

If the Zhengzi battalion is a depressed little chicken after being devastated by the storm, the Fu Han army is a cloud of thunder and lightning generated in the storm, getting brighter and brighter, condensing and accumulating endless strength.

Yang Zhengjie can only hear the sound of artillery in the distance now, and he can't hear the crackling gunshots. Their battalion suffered heavy losses, and was transferred by Zenghai to the Great South Gate in the southwest of Fanshan. That's why he can be so comfortable, Yang Zhengjie doesn't want anything now, he just wants to sleep comfortably.

On the road from the Great East Gate to Yushan, the infantry team was gradually flooded with thick smoke. The sound of grenades and cannons was heard in the city, as well as the sound of dense musket fire.

At noon, groups of wounded and soldiers and people carrying stretchers moved from Fanshan to the Great South Gate. Subsequently, the shells that fell into the city became even more dense.

"Lord Yang, the wound medicine is not enough." A Mr. Qian, who was in his thirties and had a sloppy beard, said to Yang Zhengjie urgently.

"I don't have enough medicine for injuries, so I have some medicine for injuries? Don't report it up yet. Yang Zhengjie's eyes looked out, and he saw a wounded soldier lying on the wooden board, his stomach was still bleeding, and Yang Zhengjie could see the intestines in the hand that was covering the wound. This person should have been stabbed through the belly with the bayonet of the Fu Han army.

"The governor has medicinal herbs in his hand, so let's go quickly. Those who can be saved by the province have also been delayed to death. This plague-stricken thief! ”

Yang Zhengjie, who waved his hand, stared blankly in the direction of Fanshan, and only after a long time did he squirt a scolding with a bitter face: "What about the shovel of the Yan family!" "It's really a big problem this time. The bannermen all over the city began to run towards the Great South Gate, and they were going to take a boat to the west.

Because in such a short period of time, the Fu Han army took Yushan again. Yang Zhengjie's mind was about to be stunned. The progress of the Fu Han army was too fast and too pressing.

"Fourth, now the governors above are also hopeless about this Guangzhou." Yang Zhengxiong said with a sigh beside Yang Zhengjie. On the entire South Gate Street, how long has it been? It was already crowded with bannermen who were about to leave the city.

Yang Zhengjie was speechless about his second brother's words, the flag people were about to leave the city, and of course it was obvious what the people above wanted to do.

He used his drink to ease his nerves. A small pot of white wine was poured into his stomach, his head was slightly smoky, and the wine made the tension drive out of his heart. But as soon as he turned around, Yang Zhengjie, who was pouring the last sip of wine into his mouth, was knocked to the ground by a terrifying wave of qi.

He felt as if he had been hit by a running bull in a sprint.

A roaring explosion followed, and Yang Zhengjie's entire head went blank.

What a terrible explosion! The entire city of Guangzhou was plunged into dust and smoke. The buzzing tinnitus prevented Yang Zhengjie from hearing anything else, although he was screaming frantically.

Because he thought of the Guangzhou flag people who were being transferred on Nanmen Street. "It's really over." A deep sense of powerlessness mixed with a sense of dizziness made him lie on the ground decadently. There was a faint smell of burnt paste in the air, and then there was a burst of explosions, and there were miserable screams, cries, and the neighing of cows and horses in the midst of the explosion.

Yang Zhengjie woke up, and the first scene he saw when he opened his eyes was a horse dragging a car with the roof lifted off and running past not far from him, and there were obvious blood stains on the exploded carriage. There was another horse beside him, like himself a moment before, lying limply on the ground, making a dying wail.

Yang Zhengjie rushed into Nanmen Street like crazy, the smoke was like a thick fog, and it was impossible to see who was who from three or five feet away. All he could hear was endless cries and dead bodies everywhere......

"Fourth, run away, run away......" Yang Zhengjie's second brother Yang Zhengxiong took his hand and ran towards the south gate. As he fled, he yelled loudly, "When is this?" The cannons of the Chen thieves have been pulled into the city, and Guangzhou is finished. You still don't care if they live or die, let's save our brothers' lives first. ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the defenders of the Great South Gate also fled, their brothers, as well as the irons in the camp, also fled quickly. Saving your life is more important than anything else. The Qing troops captured on the battlefield, whether they were officers, soldiers, green battalions or people's braves, as long as they were caught by the Han army, they had to be reformed through labor. Who the hell wants to be a coolie?

The Fu Han army attacked like a tide, and after taking the Great East Gate, it quickly captured Yushan. Zenghai had to continuously transfer troops from all over the place to fill the bottomless pit of Jinfanshan, but how long did it take? The artillery of the Fu Han army actually entered the city. They didn't know that the explosion just now was caused by rockets, and they thought that the artillery group of the Fu Han Army had come in.

The few standard camp bombs left at the south gate could not suppress the green camp people who were more than ten times larger, and the Wei brothers also took the opportunity to slip away.

When Bayansan hurriedly rushed to the Great South Gate with two battalions of superintendents, what he saw was the Great South Gate with the city gate wide open, and the tragic situation of the corpses of the two or three thousand banners who retreated here were all over the field.

Bayansan regretted it too late, and knew that he had also let these bannermen retreat from Guide Gate further west. It's just that they are greedy for speed, and it will be faster to retreat separately, so let them suffer this great disaster.

As for the green camp people who took the opportunity to escape, Bayan San hated it so much that he wanted to cut down all the remaining hundreds of green camp people.

Gongbei Tower, a military important place in the city of Guangzhou. If you look at the map of the whole Guangzhou, including the outer city in the south, the Gongbei Tower is located in the most central position of the whole Guangzhou city.

This building was built at the end of the Tang Dynasty, since the Tang and Song dynasties, the building has been used as a military sentry role, and a new function has been added since the Yuan Dynasty, a "copper kettle drip leakage" timer is placed, and there is a special person responsible for beating the time.

When the loss of Fanshan was imminent, Gongbei Tower was close to the northeast corner of Guangzhou Mancheng [located in the southwest of Guangzhou City], which naturally became an important barrier to protect Guangzhou Mancheng.

But what Zenghai and Bayansan definitely didn't expect was that in the Gongbei Building at this moment, a quarrel with a lot of intensity was going on.

Xu Chenglin, the governor of Guangxi, looked at the Guizhou Governor Bai Ling'a's eyes and breathed fire, "Bai Ling'a, your soldiers are people, but Lao Tzu's soldiers are not people?" Your Guizhou soldiers are responsible for defense, but you asked Lao Tzu's men and horses to fight back, what kind of heart do you have? ”

"Xu Junmen." Bai Ling's eyes looked at him with contempt, and he said coldly: "This is an extraordinary time. Be careful what you say. What do you call your soldiers and my soldiers, these are all soldiers of Daqingguo, and they are all holy soldiers. Bai Ling Anai is the governor of Guizhou in the Qing Dynasty, but he is not a chaotic minister and thief without a dynasty. ”

Xu Chenglin's braids are about to stand up, and at this time, Bai Ling'a still comes to find fault with his words, he 'bah'!

"You don't fucking fart for Lao Tzu to find fault. Xu is loyal to the Qing Dynasty and loyal to the Long Live Lord, which is well known to all. It's not like you can reverse black and white with a few words. I'll tell you now, it's okay to fight a counterattack, let's send two battalions of soldiers and horses each. Do you want my Guangxi soldiers to be substitutes for you Guizhou guys? That's no way. ”

Is Bai Ling'a a Manchurian, Xu Chenglin is a Han Chinese, so in the past, Xu Chenglin let Bai Ling'a score three points. But you can't deceive people too much, Bai Ling'a actually wants to push all the 'counterattack' tasks ordered by Zenghai to the Guangxi soldiers, how can Xu Chenglin bear it? If you have to endure this, how can he go to see the Guangxi generals?

Xu Chenglin couldn't see the appearance of being a head short in front of Bai Ling'a at this moment. Pointing at Bai Ling's nose, he almost cursed.

"Xu Junmen, Xu Junmen, don't be so excited, don't be excited. If you have something to say, it's good to say. Li Xu, the chief soldier of Guzhou Town, Guizhou, has a very good temper, and he also feels that Bai Ling'a is really a bully. But he had to eat under Bai Ling'a, so he didn't dare to say that he was looking for a dead end. What's more, this matter is also taken advantage of by Guizhou soldiers.

The Qing army in Fanshan will not be able to withstand it, and the army will withdraw to Mancheng, which will require troops to respond. And the current city of Guangzhou, when it comes to superior geographical location, there is no better location than the Qing army here in Gongbeilou. Moreover, it is also an important place for the Qing army's troop deployment.

One-third of the soldiers and horses of Guangxi and Guizhou, which are 20,000 people small, are deployed here.

Sending troops from here can directly threaten the flank of the Fu Han army that was killed by Dafanshan. But it is clear that such a sortie is also extremely dangerous. Li Xu could only stir the paste between Xu Chenglin and Bai Ling'a. At the same time, he was also very dissatisfied with Zenghai's order. Isn't this for them to be substitutes for the defeated soldiers of Fanshan?

"Two soldiers, speak slowly, if you have something to say, there is no misunderstanding that cannot be solved."

Of course, Bai Ling'a is also a violent temper, if it was three or five years ago, if any Han general dared to point at his nose, he would have exploded a long time ago. In the past two years, the Qing Dynasty has been in decline, and his temper has been much better when he faces the Han generals and Han soldiers, and his self-cultivation has to be much thicker. At this time, he still suppressed the anger in his heart, and explained as calmly as possible: "Lord Xu, I didn't mean to kill people with a knife. However, there was a lack of equipment in the Qianbing army, and less than 1,000 of the more than 10,000 soldiers who left the province were equipped with muskets, and most of them were new soldiers. If they were told to rush ahead, in case they were beaten by Chen Wei and collapsed, and they reversed the position of Gongbeilou, wouldn't the situation be even more dangerous.

None of us will be able to run then. "The soldiers of Guizhou and Guangxi are guarding the Gongbei Tower, which is the center of Guangzhou, that is, a grasshopper on a rope, and no one can escape the consequences if something happens.

As for the green battalions of the two provinces, when it comes to the quality of weapons and soldiers on both sides, Guangxi is stronger than Guizhou in the end. This is an undeniable fact.

Xu Chenglin didn't listen to this at all, "The same is to serve the country, only relying on the word loyalty, how can he be by" Bai Ling'a Even if he said that the sky was falling, he couldn't follow it.

Bai Ling'a was immediately angry when he heard this, his eyes widened, and he clenched his fists at Xu Chenglin, and the two of them were about to really stand up to the cow, but Li Xu on the side was about to cry. "Two military gates, two adults, Fanshan is going to be lost. Hurry up and get some soldiers is the most important thing......" I had to call the soldiers to pull them apart.

But as soon as Li Xu's words fell, a rapid gong sound suddenly came from the top of the Gongbei Building, "Fanshan is lost, Fanshan is lost......"

Xu Chenglin and Bai Ling'a, who were still glaring at each other as angrily as black corns just now, changed their faces at the same time, none of them expected that the speed of Fanshan's loss would be so fast.

Zenghai had a white veil wrapped around his forehead, and he was placed on a removed door panel and rushed to the rear. Not long after, a rocket fell not far from him, and the shock wave hit the rock, and the person fainted on the spot. At the same time, his banner was broken by the explosion. The Qing army in front saw that the general banner in the rear was gone, and the position of Zenghai was still in chaos, and the only remaining military spirit and fighting spirit also collapsed, and soon the whole line collapsed under an attack by the Fuhan army......

Goshha hurriedly rushed towards the city with Zenghai on his shoulders. The Qing army behind was completely like a herd of horses with the reins unleashed, completely devoid of organization and structure.

Bai Ling's eyes were red.

"Li Xu, go and transfer troops, go quickly-"

Xu Chenglin, who was on the other side, didn't dare to say a word of flowers, and directly grabbed his own deputy general.

"Rest assured. Humble duty understands! ”

The troops that attacked were no longer four battalions, Xu Chenglin's five battalions went to three, and Li Xun took all the men and horses from Guzhou Town to Guangdong, more than 2,000 people.

……

At this moment, outside Guangzhou, Chen Ming received his 'old friend' with a smile on his face.

After Robert found that a large number of bannermen had fled from the city of Guangzhou, he knew that the Qing army had no will and determination to hold on to Guangzhou. The Fu Han army may soon win the war.

He quickly contacted FranΓ§ois Philippe Perrier, the representative of the French East India Company, plus the representatives of Macao, Sadanye, and then the representatives of Britain, France, Portugal, Greece and other countries, and came to the Fuhan army camp outside the east gate of Guangzhou City, asking to meet the future owner of this land flowing with endless wealth!

"Your Excellency, this is a small gift, and only on behalf of the East India Company of the Kingdom of Great Britain, to pay the highest tribute to you and your brave and fearless army." (To be continued.) )
