The Wehrmacht moved south, and the entire county town in Hunan surrendered when the wind fell, and the Wehrmacht was like a bamboo, forming a rolling and crushing trend. Zeng Guofan's army, which was converging with Guangxi reinforcements, was frightened and quickly set off to evacuate Hunan.

Zeng Guofan had already had the consciousness of leaving Hunan, and it was not a wise choice to continue to fight the Wehrmacht until the combat effectiveness of the Hunan army was improved.

The Guangxi reinforcements were led by the Guilin general Chierha, and he was extremely puzzled by Zeng Guofan's performance, and then he was puzzled. Is this Wehrmacht really so strong? He was a little unbelievable. The Taiping army first broke out from Guangxi, and then swept the Yangtze River Valley, and more than half a year ago, the Taiping army Yiwang was entrenched in the northern region of Guangxi, and he did not deal with him, although the two sides did not die, but there were constant skirmishes, even the Yiwang did not open up the situation in Guangxi, and had to go away to Sichuan. Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, Chirha did not think that the Wehrmacht was very strong.

Previously, the Taiping Army's new Fourth Army fought with them briefly, and the strength of the other party was not as strong as the legend said. Therefore, Kherha did not want to retreat, at least he did not want to be frightened by the name of the enemy and withdraw without firing a shot.

"General Chierha, you were facing an army that the traitor Hong Tiangui had formed not long ago, and many of them were surrendered to our Hunan army, and their own strength was not strong. But the Wehrmacht was different, they were armed with a Western rifle, equipped with hundreds of Western artillery, and the unstoppable grenades, and the strange cannon that could fire explosive packs, all of which could not be stopped by flesh and blood. Zeng Guofan patiently explained that his Hunan army was ready to leave here.

"Your Excellency the Governor, what about Western weapons? It's not like we haven't seen it in Guangzhou Green Camp. And we have been fighting against the rebels for many years, and their strength is nothing at all. Lord Zeng, if your Hunan army can't fight, then let's fight! Thirka shook her head and said stubbornly.

Zeng Guofan was speechless, and his arrogance as a son of the Manchu Qing Dynasty made Chierha a little unsightly.

Although he was the governor of the two lakes, Khirha did not belong to him, so naturally he could not give orders to him.

Zeng Guofan was a little embarrassed, in his heart, he didn't want to continue to entangle, because the balance of strength between the two sides has not changed, even if the Guangzhou Green Battalion can fight, I am afraid that it will not be able to change the situation on the entire battlefield.

Zeng Guofan had no way to withdraw his troops according to his plan, so he could only let the army be stationed on the spot, and at the same time the army was ready to assist the Guangzhou Green Battalion in blocking the Wehrmacht.

A day later, the main forces of the Wehrmacht appeared in front of the Green Battalion in Guangzhou. Heavy artillery, large-caliber artillery, flying thunder guns were all put into service. The Wehrmacht, like madness, came up and launched a strike with the saturated firepower that was currently achievable.

The position of the green battalion in Guangzhou is in a mess, although the green forest army in Guangxi is not as incompetent as other green battalions in the country, but it is not a strong army, and in the face of saturated firepower blows far beyond this era, the army collapsed instantly.

Čerha, who led the army in front, was even more broken by a shell, and if it weren't for his own soldiers desperately saving him, I am afraid that his whole person would have been blown apart by the fire of the Wehrmacht.

The rescued Kherha's face was full of fear, and his bowels were blue with regret. If he had listened to Zeng Guofan's words and had withdrawn to Guangxi as soon as possible, he might not have been able to contain the offensive of the National Defense Forces by virtue of Guangxi's geographical advantages.

It is a pity that there is no regret medicine sold in this world at all, and under the unreserved attack of the Wehrmacht, the green camp in Guangzhou collapsed, and there was not one out of ten who escaped.

Fortunately, the Hunan army set up an ambush on the way back of the Guangzhou Green Battalion, and the Wehrmacht stopped the assault in order to prevent the ambush, otherwise the entire Guangzhou Green Battalion would not have been able to escape even one-tenth of it.

The most direct consequence of this battle was that the Hunan army frantically withdrew like a rabbit, and did not leave a single soldier to stop the Wehrmacht.

The Wehrmacht cleaned up the battlefield in a good way, and then chased down the road where the Hunan army had withdrawn.

The Hunan army was engulfed by the Guangxi Green Battalion and stepped into Guangxi three days later, but the national defense army stopped at the Hunan border. The army was divided into two routes, one stationed in Yongzhou and the other in Huaihua, on the one hand to deter Guangxi, and on the other hand to suppress Yungui.

The Hunan army retreated to Guilin with the Guangxi Green Battalion and temporarily assumed the task of Guilin's Northern Defense Army.

The battle, which lasted for nearly three months, stretched from Anqing to Guilin in Guangxi, and the scale could be said to have swept half of China. The national defense forces of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom won a complete victory, not only eliminating most of the Hunan army, but also taking the entire Jiangxi and Hunan in one go, dividing the Hunan army into two, one part into Hubei and the other into Guangxi, which not only completely solved the crisis on the western front, but also fully opened the door to Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and other southwestern provinces. For the first time, the power of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom radiated to the southwest region.

At the same time, Hong Tiangui met the winged king Shi Dakai in Changsha City.

Shi Dakai, who is now in his Chinese New Year's Eve, looks a little emaciated, his figure is not tall, but he is extremely tall, his face is very square, his eyes are bright, and he looks full of vicissitudes, which is unforgettable.

Hong Tiangui was looking at the Wing King, and Shi Dakai was also looking at Hong Tiangui, the two sides could say that they had been friends with each other for a long time, and they were excited when they met for the first time.

"Minister, Shi Dakai has seen His Majesty the Heavenly King!" Wing King Shi Dakai knelt down on one knee and gave Hong Tiangui a big gift.

Hong Tiangui hurriedly grabbed him and joked, although the two sides were monarchs and ministers, Shi Dakai was still his father-in-law, and he also admired the most among these people in the Heavenly Kingdom, and he didn't want him to bow down to him anyway.

"The Winged King is exempt, you are the founding hero of the Kingdom of Heaven, and you are the father-in-law of this king, there is a difference between the young and the old, and the Winged King does not have to salute when he sees this king in the future."

The Wing King was stunned for a moment, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Minister, thank you for the Heavenly King Longen."

Hong Tiangui breathed a sigh of relief, the two sides sat down, and Hong Tiangui naturally asked the Wing King about the situation of opening up the eastern Sichuan base area.

Yiwang replied one by one, Hong Tiangui's expression was a little dignified, although Sichuan is the country of abundance, but after hundreds of years of enslavement education in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it is no longer the foundation of the Han people, plus there are many various non-governmental organizations in Sichuan, and religious rebellions occur from time to time, which makes Sichuan extremely xenophobic to religious forces. Although Hong Tiangui tried his best to weaken the influence of the God Worship Sect on the Heavenly Kingdom after inheriting the Heavenly King, the cabinet he created was in accordance with the Western capitalist model, and all cabinet members and officials must be outside the God worship religion, and at the same time, he cooperated with the cabinet to continuously suppress the members of the God worship sect headed by the six departments.

Now that the cabinet has taken control of the administrative power of the Heavenly Kingdom, all that remains is to completely strip the worship of God from the power of the Heavenly Kingdom, and finally cancel its influence on the Heavenly Kingdom, so that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will be transformed from a theocracy into a normal military and political force, rather than a religious thug.
