From Shi Dakai's attack on Jiujiang, to the capture of Anqing, to the defeat of Zeng Guoquan's main Hunan army, and then to the capture of Huizhou and Wuhu, the Taiping army did not share more than a month! It's just overwhelming, unstoppable!

The entire Jiangnan was shocked, Zeng Guoquan and the remnants of the army were defeated and retreated in Hefei, not daring to move, for fear that when he returned to Tianjing, he would be attacked by Shi Dakai again, and the gains would outweigh the losses; As for the current Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang, they have just entered the territory of Anhui, and there is still a lot of distance from Shi Dakai's base camp!

The entire system of the Hunan army, the Huai army, and the Chu army were all panicked, Shi Dakai came back, and this Shi Dangdang came back again!

It's not that the three major systems under the command of Zeng Guofan are really not as strong as Shi Dakai's Taiping Army, but Shi Dakai's military ability is too strong, even if the Taiping Army is now declining, he still doesn't dare to underestimate it!

The Qing army was shocked, angry, and frightened; However, there were quite a few people who fell into the carnival, and in the entire Jianghuai region, there were still at least 100,000 Taiping troops, scattered in eight or nine provinces, including Shaanxi, Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Guangxi.

The news of the fall of Tianjing and the suicide of the King of Heaven spread, and the entire Taiping Army was already in chaos, even Hong Renxuan and Li Xiucheng, who were the chief regent and military, died, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was dead! The soldiers of the Taiping Army had already fallen into despair, but the common faith still supported them to continue fighting, but how long could they hold out. No one knows!

It's at this critical juncture. Shi Dakai shot out of the air. From Sichuan all the way to Anhui! Even the Hunan army generals Zeng Guoquan and Bao Chao were defeated in succession, which undoubtedly gave all the Taiping troops a shot in the arm!

Lu'an.

There is a Taiping army here, and it is a Taiping army whose strength should not be underestimated, led by Chen Decai, the king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Chen Decai is the cousin of the British king Chen Yucheng, and the remnants of the Taiping army in the northwest of Anhui. broke away from Chen Yucheng, and when he returned to his teacher, he got the news that the king was killed.

Chen Decai had to lead the army to fight the Qing army near Lu'an in the northwest of Anhui, and it was difficult to support until now.

"Fuwang, good news, great news! The Wing King and the Wing King Chitose actually defeated the main force of the Hunan army led by Zeng Guoquan in one fell swoop in Wusong Mountain! The Hunan army of more than 40,000 people was beaten and only more than 10,000 people remained, with heavy casualties, haha, the Yiwang is back, the future. We're having a better time! ”

King Hu Lan Chengchun laughed and shouted.

Chen Decai is also happy, yes. It's the Winged King who is back, when they were the earliest, they were all the old subordinates of the Winged King, and it was when the dragons were leaderless, and the Winged King actually killed halfway and picked up the banner of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom again!

"Yes, great, the Wing King is here, with his great prestige and ability, he is enough to lead us to create the immortal foundation of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom again! Anqing, haha, Anqing is only four or five hundred miles away from us, come here, immediately rectify the army, three days later, march towards Anqing! ”

Anhui, Guangde.

The Taiping army, which had been in tatters, was marching with difficulty, and this team was miserable, disheveled, and even the weapons were about to be lost!

While on the march, a fast horse came straight and came to the head of the Yang King Li Mingcheng, dismounted, and shouted: "King Yang, King Yang, good news, good news, Wing King is a great victory, Wing King along the Yangtze River, all the way to capture Jiujiang and Anqing, in Wusong Mountain, Zeng Guoquan was beaten to the ground, we are saved, we are saved!" ”

Li Mingcheng was in high spirits, grabbed the collar of the brigade marshal, and shouted: "What you said is true, is it really the Wing King who is back?" ”

The brigade commander nodded again and again, and shouted: "It's true, King Yang, it's true, it's definitely the Wing King, except for him, no one in the Taiping army can defeat the 40,000 Hunan army led by Zeng Guoquan and Bao Chao!" ”

"And where is the Wing King now?"

"The Wing King is now stationed in Anqing, and he has already released his words to summon all the units of the Taiping Army to Anqing to assemble and revitalize the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!"

"Order, the army will rest immediately, and early tomorrow morning, three thousand brothers, rush to Anqing with all their might!"

Li Mingcheng's heart was full of joy, he no longer had to worry about being annihilated, since the Wing King, he had defeated Zeng Guoquan's 40,000 Hunan troops, such a strength is definitely not covered, it is good to enjoy the shade with his back against the big tree, with the Wing King, what are you worried about?

In addition to Chen Decai and Li Mingcheng, the Taiping army in Zhejiang, Henan, Jiangxi and other places also got the news of the great victory one after another, and the various units of the Taiping army began to advance towards Anhui as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the entire Jianghuai area became lively again.

Anqing, Shi Dakai is now in high spirits, in a short period of time, there have been six or seven Taiping troops have come to Anqing, the first to arrive is the nearest Chen Decai, Chen Decai led nearly 20,000 people into Anqing, all of a sudden the strength of the Taiping army has greatly increased, not only that, but several other Taiping troops are not weak, together, there are almost 20,000 people, Shi Dakai suddenly has nearly 40,000 more troops, even if the good and the bad are uneven, the combat power is already considerable!

Moreover, the most exciting thing is that Shi Dakai's strategy has achieved initial success, and the entire southern Anhui region has fallen into the hands of the Taiping army, and Shi Dakai has controlled four prefectures and twenty-four counties! If this development continues, it will not take half a year for Shi Dakai to move eastward and northward, occupy the entire Anhui, and then march into Jiangsu!

Similarly, the news was quickly transmitted from Jiangnan to Beijing.

Prince Gong's Mansion.

When Yixin was taking a nap, Wen Xiang hurriedly broke in from outside, "Lord Wang, something is wrong!" ”

Yixin's eyes opened, his heart was shocked, and he looked at Wen Xiang in surprise, Wen Xiang has always been steady, he has rarely been so anxious, and his face has changed!

"Bochuan, what's wrong? Speak slowly! The sky can't fall! ”

Wen Xiang said astringently: "Lord Wang, this time, I'm afraid that the sky is really going to fall, half a month ago, the long-haired head against Shida set out of Sichuan, crossed Hubei, went straight down the river, and took down Jiujiang in one fell swoop, and captured Anqing again a few days ago, and then launched a decisive battle with Zeng Guoquan Baochao in Wusong Mountain......"

Yi Xin stood up: "What? Shi Dakai captured Jiujiang and Anqing? ”
