Chapter 106 Chengdu Fengyun (5)

"The commander has captured Chengdu!" Liu Yongfu of Qianwei Salt Farm also received the news, but he didn't have much expression on his face, just nodded with his head: "I know what to do." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Come on! Inform the front line, give up one trench, three or four trenches must be abandoned before dark, and drag Hu Zhonghe here for me. Of course, Liu Yongfu understood the meaning of Yang Dongfang's letter, that is, to firmly tie Hu Zhonghe's 10,000 army.

Hu Zhonghe will inevitably retreat once he gets the news of the loss of Chengdu, and now let him in, it will not be so easy when he wants to leave.

Sure enough, Hu Zhonghe received the news of breaking through several trenches on the front line one after another, but he didn't realize that something was wrong, he just thought that Liu Yongfu's troops were not enough, because the New People's Army was not firing guns.

Is there no gunpowder?

Then it is even more necessary to capture the Qianwei salt field in one go and drive the New People's Army away.

So his 10,000-strong army strengthened the offensive, and before dark, he unexpectedly broke through half of the positions of the New People's Army, which made him a little afraid to accept the facts, when Liu Yongfu was so careless.

For the past five or six days, the two sides have been fighting a tug-of-war in the front few trenches, and there has been no progress.

It wasn't until midnight that a fast horse arrived at Hu Zhonghe's camp, and the delivery of the letter could be regarded as the horse running to death, and he was almost out of breath, but fortunately he finally drank a sip of water and reported it:

"Junmen, Lord Hu, Chengdu. Chengdu fell, new bandits attacked Chengdu, and Lord Luo and others were captured. ”

Hu Zhonghe was dumbfounded, and his mind was a little unturned.

What are you taunting me? In the middle of the night, no one sleeps, you might as well say that Liu Yongfu launched a night attack and recaptured those trenches.

The person who reported the news was also sweating, it seemed that Admiral Hu didn't believe it, Admiral Hu looked gentle and elegant, but if he opened his mouth, his expression was also very terrifying, and finally he had to say again: "My lord, this matter is true, the new bandit leader Yang Dongfang personally infiltrated Chengdu City, seized the city, and cut off the head of Lord Yang. ”

Now Hu Zhonghe can't sit idly by, Yang Chongya has been killed, then Luo Bingzhang.

"Gather the team, let's rush back to Chengdu in the starry night." Hu Zhonghe made a decision at the moment, quite decisively.

Chengdu can not afford to lose, Chengdu is the soul of Sichuan, but also the most important place in the entire Chengdu Plain, if it is really taken by the new people, then it must be recaptured as soon as possible at any cost, otherwise the new people army can grow and develop to the point of invincibility in an instant with Chengdu City.

In this regard, he really didn't dare to imagine that night, Hu Zhonghe left the Qianwei salt field with 3,000 Hunan drops.

"Report! The commander, Hu Zhonghe's headquarters Xiang Ying, opened the gate in the middle of the night and went in the direction of Jiazhou. ”

"It seems that Hu Zhonghe has received the news of the fall of Chengdu." Liu Yongfu is also a veteran and experienced, and he has already sent people to observe the movements of the Hunan army, so he ordered the following: "Beat the drum and beat the gong, and I can shake out the matter of Chengdu being captured by our army, I want all the Qing soldiers to know about this, Hu Zhonghe is gone, and the other Qing soldiers will be flustered and suspicious." ”

Hu Zhonghe originally walked very hidden, and also sent a deputy general to stabilize the army here, and led the headquarters to relax in Chengdu alone, the original plan was that after dawn tomorrow, the deputy general would inform the rest of the armies, and then withdraw to Jiazhou in turn.

He didn't expect that Yang Dongfang had a channel to transmit this matter back to Tieshan so quickly and inform the various departments of the New People's Army.

Similarly, it was Yang Yinggang of Ziyang who made the same decision as Hu Zhonghe.

He was originally transferred to suppress the bandits of the New People's Army, and now that Chengdu is in crisis, not to mention that it is important to go to Chengdu to rescue the driver, if Luo Bingzhang and others are captured, Sichuan will be no less than a major earthquake of magnitude seven or eight.

Similarly, in the surroundings of Chengdu City, most of the officials who had received Luo Bingzhang's favor and had military power in their hands brought soldiers and horses to Chengdu.

One of them arrived in Chengdu first, this person was the Hunan general He Shengbi, who was unfavorable in the war with Xiao Qing last year, originally he was the deputy general who was dismissed and retained in the army, and because of the rise of the new people's army, Luo Bingzhang simply transferred him to Deyang.

The first is to let him prevent the New People's Army from a possible jump attack on Chengdu in Deyang, Li Lan used this trick when he divided his troops to attack, so Luo Bingzhang had to defend against it, but he never thought that Yang Dongfang would only take a few people to cross the middle of the Longquan Mountain Range and smash Huanglong.

The second is to let He Shengbi train Xinmu Chuan Yong, so as to support the Tieshan war for backup, in fact, Luo Bingzhang had already had the idea of transferring him to Tieshan to exterminate the New People's Army, just because there was a Taiping army in Hanzhong to help Wang Chen Decai, and he was afraid that Xiao Qinggao would not be able to cope with it alone.

So when he heard that Chengdu had fallen, the Hunan general He Shengbi brought 2,000 Hunan troops and 4,000 Sichuan Yong to kill him, and the time happened to be in the afternoon, and at this time Yang Dongfang was still at the West Gate, and had just recruited two engineer regiments.

"Commander-in-chief, there is trouble in the city."

Yang Dongfang, who heard the news, immediately took people back to the city first.

You have to know that there is a large army outside the city, and there are several militia groups in the city who can't hold their breath first, and they are divided into three routes, attacking from home respectively, all the way to the east gate, all the way to the governor's yamen, and all the way to the city.

The goal is very clear, that is, to rescue all the adults, to merge with the flag soldiers in the city, open the city gate, and join the inside and outside.

Chengdu is a very large city, with a population of 200,000 in the city, and the guard regiments are distributed in the four gates and several key points in the city, and there are simply not enough troops to control all the neighborhoods in the city.

So let these people quickly recruit manpower, and start fighting back together.

But the effect was very bad, first attacking the governor's yamen, as a result of which blood was shed on the street at the gate, and in front of the defensive position made of sandbags, it was knocked out in one round, killing and wounding hundreds of people.

After seeing the firepower of the New People's Army, he fired another ruthlessly, rushed once, leaving corpses everywhere, and then retreated.

Ge Hui only sent a platoon to pursue, and he still guarded the governor's yamen.

The militia attacking the governor's yamen encountered the militia attacking the east gate on the street, and as a result, the group was even more unbearable, and they were frightened back by the fierce muskets of the new people's army after rushing once.

The two groups of people were in one place, and when they saw that they were unsuccessful, they simply walked to the city, hoping to break a hole from here.

Outside the city is an artillery battalion and a company of guards, and the artillery battalion is also a breech gun in its hand at this time, and the shooting accuracy may not be as good as that of several other battalions, but it will make the gun, and the flag soldiers who hold the city will be impacted, and there is no big problem.

So when the first wave of militias came, they immediately gave them a hard blow and told them what a real musket was.

The guns that really fire and the fire snakes kept coming out, harvesting the regimental courage that came over one by one, and the performance of these militia groups really moved the flag soldiers all over the city.

"It's so brave that the Baturu Warrior Medal must be awarded."

"Yes! The emperor must be rewarded with a kiss and encouragement! ”

Of course, they have another idea.

"It's a miserable death, and the tuition fees of the old men were also paid like this last night."

Sure enough, the brave could not defeat the bullets, and the first wave of militias retreated, but they did not leave, because two more waves of militias that failed to attack came.

The three dogs who were beaten up comforted each other and licked their wounds, and then told the uncles in the city that if we didn't get an assist, we would surrender, why bother to win this life, and don't want to attack Chengdu City.

"Master, what do you think!"

Speaking of this, the people in the city are in a hurry, damn it, you dare to rebel, Lao Tzu will punish your whole clan.

After scolding, everyone is still calm to discuss, it's not a matter to rush like this, the bloody lesson last night crushed the bones of the flag camp to the point that you don't want it.

In the end, it was the Mongolian man, patting his thigh and saying: "We are born people, we are the descendants of wolves, we are afraid of an egg, what do we help to attack and hell, we will directly attack, kill out, you can't do it with full flags, then we Mongolian warriors." ”

Yes! Are there still two Mongolian flags in the city? And it's a cavalry team of 400 people.

Cavalry fighting the army is all hanging!

As soon as Mongolia came out, it destroyed the country thirty-six, which is very awesome.

"Big brother, you're old! Just wait for your words, long live the friendship between Manchu and Mongolia. ”

It's not like the big brother for many years, the Mongolian cavalry is fast, but it's not as fast as the bullets, and the internal and external pinching seems to be very good, as a result, the cavalry is a cup, and the rapid-fire thermal weapon is the terminator of the cavalry, and the big brother who is not the big brother is dead and ugly.

Do you still remember how thousands of Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry at Bali Bridge were beaten by the British and French armies?

"Except for the first few horses, the rest are only allowed to beat people, and dead horses are left." Seeing the Mongolian cavalry coming out, looking at the beautiful Mongolian horses, the soldiers of the New People's Army also had their eyes shining.

The smoke of gunpowder curled up, and the artillery battalion used muskets to shoot cavalry, which was really amazing, and the Mongolian men who were shot one by one fell off their horses, and the first 200 cavalry to rush out were very few who could still sit on horseback.

The great Chang was born, and sang another conquest, and the chrysanthemums fluttered all over the ground.

The 200 riders in the back were blocked by the unmanned horses in front, and the edge was reduced, and they were powerless to rush, and their faces turned pale with fear, so they turned around and left, leaving their backs to bullets.
