Shao Jiugong's old subordinate, Wang Youxi, who came from the green camp in Jiangxi, grasped the fighter plane launched by Ma Harrier in time and led his troops to storm the chaotic Daniel Zhang troops, forcing Daniel Zhang to lead his troops to retreat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The retreat of Daniel Zhang's troops allowed the 14th Town of the Taiping Army, which had pinned down him, to free up more troops and horses to besiege Li Benshen.

Geng Zhongde, the general of the fourteenth town, and Shang Keyuan, the general of the thirteenth town, were both born under the Qing army domain, and their experiences were similar. When Geng Jimao and Shang Kexi went south together in the past, it was Geng Zhongde who always came to the front line to command. When Hao Shangjiu fought in Chaozhou that year, Geng Zhongde was the actual commander of the battle under the Jingnan Domain.

Geng Zhongde's sensitivity to the capture of fighters was no less than that of Wang Youxi, and without waiting for the regiment to have instructions, he took advantage of the retreat of Daniel Zhang's entire army to personally take the A Brigade to cover Li Benshen's rear. The two towns of the Taiping Army, one in front and one on the right, surrounded by seven or eight thousand troops of Li Benshen. At this time, the battle situation was that the left flank of the Qing army retreated, the Chinese army was surrounded, and only the right flank still had the upper hand. However, the thousands of soldiers of the State Security Department of the Qing Army Line on the right flank and the more than 3,000 cavalry led by the Manchurian Gushan Ezhen Arzin have always been pinned down by the Taiping Army in person, and they seem to have the upper hand, and the Taiping Army in front of them also suffered heavy casualties, but it is difficult for the line Guoan and Arzin to break through the Taiping Army's defense line in one fell swoop and cause the opponent to collapse. More importantly, the tenacious support of the Guangxi wolf soldiers in the thirteenth town restrained the Qing army with as many as 10,000 people, if the thirteenth town collapsed, then the Qing army, which included more than 3,000 Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry, was killed in the rear of the Taiping army, and Yu Shizhong's general flag had to fall.

With only more than 200 Goshha guards at hand, he threw all his soldiers and horses into the battle as he began, originally wanting to defeat the Taiping army in one fell swoop, but now that the tide of the battle has been reversed, he immediately fell into a situation where he had no troops to send. Roto frowned, and did not follow Ilde's advice to withdraw from the army, but ordered to continue beating drums to cheer up the soldiers of the three armies. Ilde sighed, knowing that General Ningnan was desperate, and now he could only hope that Li Benshen could inflict heavy losses on the Taiping army, otherwise this battle would really be defeated.

One after another orders urging reinforcements of the Chinese army were sent to Line Guoan and Arzin, the battlefield was too large, tens of thousands of people were distributed on the battlefield within a radius of several miles, and the changes that occurred on the battlefield were difficult to be grasped by the generals at the first time, so the situation that Daniel Zhang and Wang Shengbu on the left wing were repelled by the cavalry of the Taiping Army, Arzin and Line Guoan did not know, they just vaguely felt that there seemed to be a change in the Chinese army. But they only guessed that this was because the Taiping army had a very difficult army.

After the two major battles of Liuzhou and Qingyuan, the Taiping army under the banner of "Qi" was deeply impressed, and he didn't think that Li Benshen could get much advantage from the other party. But he didn't think that this battle would be lost, after all, the Qing army had 6,000 cavalry, and the Manchurian and Mongolian soldiers had more than 4,000.

Line Guoan is very pleased with the progress of the right-wing war he is responsible for, not only the Manchurian cavalry performed well, but the soldiers and horses under the domain also dared to fight, and those generals were no longer as passive as before.

Line Guoan is satisfied, Arzin is also satisfied, although his subordinates have suffered a lot of casualties, but they always press the Taiping Kou to fight, compared to the battle under the city of Hechizhou, the performance of the Qing soldiers is much stronger. The two believed that if this fight continued, it would not be long before the Taiping army would be dragged down in person, but they didn't want this to happen, but the general sent people one after another to urge them to divide troops to reinforce Li Benshen's Chinese army, which made both of them a little uneasy.

Arzin immediately probed to look at the side of the Chinese army, there were moving flags everywhere, and the shouts of killing were also shocking, there was nothing wrong with a cursory look, but after a closer look, he found that the banner of the Ming army appeared behind Li Benshen.

The Chinese army was surrounded by the Taiping?

Arzin's heart jumped, and the line Guoan over there also found out about this situation, and it was also a heartbeat. At the same time, the two thought that since the Taiping army was able to divide its troops to surround Li Benshen, and it was not from their own direction, it was obviously from the left flank, that is, the left flank caused the Taiping army to disrupt, otherwise it would be impossible for them to cut out from the left flank to surround Li Benshen's rear.

Both Line Guoan and Arzin knew the importance of this battle, so Line Guoan immediately transferred a battalion of soldiers to the direction of the Chinese army to reinforce it, and Arzin also allocated 1,000 Manchurian cavalry from the rear of the Line State Security Department to reinforce Li Benshen. When Line Guoan and Arjin transferred troops to reinforce Li Benshen, Li Benshen's troops were being attacked by the fifth town of the Taiping Army from the central direction.

The battle of the large army is not suitable for the "Mandarin Duck Formation" tactics used by the C Brigade of the Fifth Town, and this flat terrain is not suitable for the use of this small formation, so at the beginning of the war, the Fifth Town was organized with battalions, and killed the enemy with firearms, spears, and wolf stalks. There were almost no gaps between the soldiers, and they were bulldozed flat like a human wall. The same was true for the Qing army, but Li Benshen's green battalion was not equipped with firearms, so they suffered a lot of losses under the blows of the Taiping army. But when the two sides were fighting together, the Qing army's bows and arrows also played a big role, shooting and killing many Taiping soldiers without armor.

"Master, you give me some eyes and run slower!"

Yu Youming, the son of Yu Shizhong and who was promoted to the captain of the C Brigade due to the merits of the first battle of the Song family's nest building, rushed forward with a spear like an ordinary soldier. Yu Youming, who has been taught martial arts since he was a child, has excellent marksmanship, and until now, no less than six or seven Qing soldiers have died under his spear. However, Xu was affected by the king of the horse harrier not far away just now. The furious shouting of the auxiliary minister, the junior general Youming will be a little impatient, and several times in order to chase and kill the Qing soldiers in front of him out of the queue, which makes the veterans who have just been promoted to officers in the guard are worried. If this loses the only son of the commander, no matter how big the victory is, they will not have the face to see the commander!

Stopped by the veterans, Yu Youming was not annoyed, but sobered up, a little guilty for his recklessness, and said to me many times that no matter how heroic an individual is on the battlefield, it is useless, and if you want to win, you have to rely on your comrades around you to win after all. Similarly, when the sound of gold starts, there is a mountain of gold and silver in front of you, and you must retreat immediately, without blinking your eyes. Ignoring his comrades and subordinates as he did just now, it is already a violation of military law to rush forward, and if his father knows, I am afraid that a board will be indispensable.

"Rest assured, you know the rules!"

Yu Youming reassured the officers and his subordinate soldiers, he was no longer an ordinary soldier, but a guard captain who commanded more than 200 soldiers. Moreover, they are infantrymen, harrier kings. The auxiliary minister is a cavalryman, and no matter how unconvinced the horse harrier is, it is impossible for him to overwhelm the other party's majesty with the spear in his hand.

King of the Harrier. The assistant minister did not know that the only son under the command of the army was very dissatisfied with him, and he never rested, always leading his troops to chase and kill the fleeing Qing cavalry, and at the same time cooperating with the infantry of the fourth town to attack Daniel Zhang's troops who were retreating. The auxiliary ministers almost rushed straight to Daniel Zhang's admiral, and several times they were blocked back by those Shaanxi-Gansu green battalion soldiers under Daniel Zhang.

King. The auxiliary minister also knew the name of the Shaanxi and Gansu battalions, and knew that Daniel Zhang was a general who could fight, so after several unsuccessful attacks, he changed his tactics of fierce attack and fierce advance, but learned the same as the previous Qing army to command the cavalry of the post to deal with Daniel Zhang, and drove so straight that Daniel Zhang could only constantly lead his troops to retreat, and could not stop at all to organize counterattacks. The king was pleased to see the king. The auxiliary ministers did not rush down Daniel Zhang, and decisively pointed the spearhead of the attack on the battalion head of the Guangxi Governor Chen Weixin's department who was with Daniel Zhang, and picked up this soft persimmon to pinch. The Guangxi battalion was defeated by the Taiping army, and indirectly made Daniel Zhang unable to hold his position, which was really embarrassing. Gradually, even Daniel Zhang himself did not realize that his soldiers were far from Li Benshen of the Chinese army.

Suddenly, the trumpet of the Chinese army came. The assistant minister turned his head and saw that there was a Qing cavalry on the side of the Chinese army who killed him from the right flank. He glanced at the retreating Daniel Zhang, and raised his eyebrows, leaving half of the lieutenant general's soldiers and horses to continue to cooperate with the fourth town to deal with Daniel Zhang, and the other half of the soldiers rushed to the Chinese army with him.

Li Benshen was also anxious in the formation, but when he saw that there were soldiers and horses on the right flank to reinforce him, his confidence was rekindled. But he soon found that the Taiping cavalry on the left flank was also killing him, and the rear was blocked by the Taiping infantry, and there was no way to transfer troops to block it.
