"Yangtze River, Southern Capital, this domain will come back!"

In the southeast Yangshan sea area, a sudden hurricane destroyed the huge fleet of the king of Yanping County, causing tens of thousands of elite soldiers and countless ordnance losses to the Yanping Domain. Under the persuasion of Zhang Huangyan, the secretary of the military department, and Chen Yonghua, who joined the army, Zheng Sen, the king of Yanping, finally returned to Jinxia with the remnants of the fleet unwilling to lead. But he didn't despair, he didn't give up, and when he looked back at the northern sea, he made up his mind to come again next year!

At the same time, thousands of miles away in Wuzhou, Guangxi, five miles east of the city, the second town of the Taiping Army, cavalry, artillery with red silk gilded military flags fluttered high on a small hillside. The golden drums roared at the foot of the mountain, and the flags of the brigades, battalions, and guards and the uniforms of the soldiers merged into a sea of red.

Zhou Shixiang, the commander of the Taiping Army, forbade soldiers to be generals, and after the end of the Zhaoqing Military Conference, he strictly ordered that all the generals with the surnames of the generals written in the old days should be abolished, and all military flags painted with fierce beasts were reissued. In order, it is the pro-army Iron Man Wei Pixiu military flag, the first town is the Tiger military flag, the second town is the lion military flag, the third town is the Xiong Zhen military flag, the fourth town is the clouded leopard military flag, the fifth town is the Qilin military flag, the sixth town is the Qinglong military flag, the seventh town is the Pegasus military flag, the eighth town is the mountain eagle military flag, and the ninth town is the elk military flag

According to the regulations of the old units of the Taiping Army, when the flag was awarded, the soldiers of the subordinate units must be fully dressed in costumes and lined up, and swore in turn -- "The flag is in the people, and the flag is dead!" ”

The infantry drill code formulated by the military marshal's office made it clear that each department must first swear to the military flag and then sing the song of killing the tartar ordered by the marshal when the army conducts daily military drills. In addition, the various preferential treatment policies for military personnel being implemented in Guangdong and the continuous propaganda of the heroic deeds of the commanders and the towns by the envoys of the large and small security armies have made the officers and soldiers of each town feel that they are heroes for the heavens as long as they mention the Taiping Army, and at the same time, they have a stronger sense of belonging to the Taiping Army.

As one of the old four towns of the Taiping Army, the second town has participated in the Xinhui City Defense, the Xiangshan Anti-Three-Way Encirclement and Suppression Battle, the Surprise Attack on Guangzhou City, and the Lufeng Garrison Battle. Now, the second town as the first army of the King of Guiqin who was personally ordered by the marshal, the morale of the whole town is high, they are wearing the red military uniforms made by the Xiangshan Military Uniform Factory, holding spears, shield swords, long knives, fire guns and other weapons, neatly lined up to look at the Wuzhou City in front

In the city of Wuzhou, Ma Xiong, a devout Muslim who was originally scheduled to be the chief soldier of the Southern Domain and is now the chief soldier of Guangxi, decided to go out of the city to repel the Taiping army that had been killed from Liujiang, otherwise, he believed that the endless Ming army sailors on the Liujiang River would transport more Taiping troops from Guangdong to Wuzhou.

Ma Xiong is a native of Guyuan, Ningxia, and the adopted son of Ma Jiaolin, the former governor of Guangxi. In the ninth year of Shunzhi, he served as the general soldier of the left wing under the king of Dingnan, and in the tenth year of Shunzhi, because of his meritorious service in the expedition to Hunan and Guangxi, he was known by the Qing court and the governor of the capital, and was awarded the second-class male guard in Guangxi. When Guangxi Admiral Line Guoan accompanied Zhao Butai to Guizhou, there were two candidates for him to choose to stay in Guangxi, one was Ma Xiong, the chief military officer of Wuzhou, and the other was Quan Jie, the chief military officer of the right wing. After weighing it repeatedly, Line Guoan finally decided to let Quan Jie follow him into Guizhou, and ordered Ma Xiong to stay in Guangxi, and was responsible for promoting and commanding all the Qing troops left in Guangxi as the chief military officer who stayed behind, and even the governor of Guangxi, Chen Weixin, could not compare with the power.

After discovering that a large-scale Ming army sailor had suddenly appeared on the Liujiang River, Ma Xiong knew that the most feared thing had happened in the letter of the Admiral Line Guoan a month ago—that the Taiping army in Guangdong had finally turned around and was about to enter the southwest Qin Wang after winning a great victory in Chaohui and defeating the army of Prince Jian Jidu. And Guangxi is the place where they must pass through the king of Qin, and the important town of Wuzhou is their must be taken!

Ma Xiong did not underestimate the enemy, he knew that the Taiping army that could destroy the Eight Banners strong army one after another was by no means an ordinary Ming army, so he maintained enough patience at the beginning to prepare to defend Wuzhou, and used Wuzhou City to consume the Taiping troops from afar, hit their morale, and finally turned the Taiping army into a tired army. However, after discovering that the Taiping army was constantly being transported by the sailors, including cavalry and artillery, Ma Xiong changed his mind and decided to go out of the city to defeat the Ming army ashore, and then destroy the docks on the Liujiang River in order to prevent more Taiping troops from landing.

The Qing infantry who left the city were placed in a zigzag formation by Ma Xiong, and the reason why this was so was that the front formation was defeated and the two rear formations delayed the advance speed of the Taiping infantry. And once the infantry of the Taiping army followed and swept into the Qing army's main array, then the gaps between their formations would be exposed, which was just the right opportunity for his cavalry to make a decisive impact.

Up to now, the battle situation was still in Ma Xiong's expectation and control, and the only thing that surprised him was that it took less than a moment for the Taiping army to crush his front line almost untenably, and from the perspective of time alone, the Taiping army's physical strength was far from being consumed.

After the infantry formation was once again oppressed by the Taiping army and retreated, Ma Xiong no longer hesitated, waved the command flag to the right, and the sound of a conch horn immediately sounded around him. After hearing the order, the cavalry of Ma Xiong's headquarters, which had been waiting for more than 2,000 people on the right flank, immediately jumped on their horses skillfully and shouted, "Hu Da bless!" Then he raised his saber and slaughtered the left flank of the Taiping army.

Ten thousand horses galloping, shaking the heavens and the earth!

Ma Xiong's subordinate cavalry is the first in the lead, and his pride is unlimited. He imagined the miserable situation when he waited for the collapse of the Southern Barbarians, and thought about how many heads of the Ming army could be cut off later, and how much merit and future he could get for himself, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Four hundred, three hundred, two hundred steps, a puff of smoke filled the array opposite the hundred paces, followed by lead pellets scattered like a torrential rain. The small projectile carried the huge kinetic energy generated by the explosion of gunpowder, and violently collided with the people and horses speeding over on the opposite side, and without hesitation, it tore through the armor and gently blocked the penetration of the entire human body. The cavalry of the Qing army suddenly bloomed with countless blood flowers like the grassland in spring, and then dispersed into mist.

Hei Gara waited until he heard the screams behind him before he was shocked, and looked down at his chest, but he was not shot!

Hu Dabao...... Before he could remember the word blessed, another round of lead shot flew in, and Hei Qian suddenly flew out as if he had hit a wall. It turned out that the mount had been shot, and the huge inertia threw him forward, slamming it on the ground.

The volley of two rounds of firearms swept down the nearly 100 Qing cavalry who rushed to the front, but the Qing cavalry behind still rushed up on horseback regardless of life and death. Most of them were Guyuan Hui veterans who followed Ma Jiaolin and Ma Xiong to fight in several provinces, and they knew that as long as they entered the battle, these Han people's bird guns could only be used as burning sticks. I couldn't help but whip the horse several times and accelerate the impact. On the battlefield, the sound of Hu Da blessing, the sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground and strange screams are mixed together, which makes people feel chilling. (To be continued.) )
