When Tang Yougeng, Liu Rong and others led their own soldiers to retreat, the Qing army showed a general trend of total defeat, and the Taiping army was in great spirits, bravely taking the lead, not only chasing the Qing army in the city, but also quickly chasing out of the city, chasing wildly to the north and east.

Taiping Lai Yuxin Division, is the early entry into Sichuan troops, light soldiers, known as 30,000, in fact, only seven or eight thousand people, on the road by the Tusi regiment training interception, there are many casualties, but, as soon as they enter Sichuan, they were warmly welcomed by the poor people, quickly replenished, when the elite of the Qing army left in Sichuan went south to intercept the Dadu River defense line, his troops have been swimming in the west of Chengdu, constantly peeping.

Finally picked up the head of the Taiping army partial division rangers, became a new force to defeat the Qing army in Chengdu in one fell swoop, but also became a nightmare when the Qing army fled, with more than 1,000 cavalry fast column, they bravely pursued and killed, has been chased out of more than 30 miles, just on the road, slashed and killed more than 800 Qing troops, surrounded and captured more than 3,300 prisoners of war, and also captured Liu Rong, the Qing army's Sichuan political envoy.

After all the battles in the city were over, Luo Yang led his own soldiers to investigate the situation outside the southern city, and before he left the city, he encountered a large group of Taiping soldiers, surrounded by several generals with a heavy heart, covered in blood and embarrassed.

"King Rui! Sharp King! The oncoming brother shouted.

"Where's the Winged King?"

"Right here!"

The Taiping soldiers who had just come in from outside the city were basically all wounded, some were seriously injured, and there were not a few who lacked arms and legs, like a group of remnants of the defeated generals.

Luo Yang entered the road from the crowd that quickly separated, and saw the Wing King Shi Dakai lying on a stretcher, his battle robe soaked with blood. He hurriedly ordered the stretcher to stop for a moment, "Wing King? ”

Shi Dakai reluctantly sat up, his face was very pale, but he smiled at Luo Yang's face: "Hahahaha, we have finally entered Chengdu!" ”

"Rest, Winged King!" Luo Yang hurriedly helped him to lie down again, and ordered him to be carried to the temporary collection site of the wounded soldiers.

In the place, Shi Da was carefully opened, and the infantry generals who stopped the pursuit heard that the Yiwang was injured, and they rushed here to visit, and soon, Zeng Shihe, Huang Zaizhong, and Wei Pucheng all arrived, surrounded Shi Dakai's side, and looked at him with concern.

The military doctors were busy, scrubbing the wounds, applying medicine, bandaging, and some directly bandaging all the wounded soldiers who came here. In the large room, the murmurs of the wounded in pain were outrageous.

Shi Dakai suffered three knife wounds, all of which were done by the cavalry of the Qing army, slashing twice, stabbing once, and the deepest stabbing was the deepest, from the left rib, no chest, and I didn't know the depth, only knew that the blood flowed endlessly, and it couldn't be blocked.

Shi Dakai also hurt badly, his face was hideous, his teeth were clenched, and the beads of sweat on his forehead fell down, he asked for a piece of cloth, swallowed it in his mouth, and bit it hard.

The medical conditions of the Taiping Army were extremely simple, there were no basic medical and surgical techniques, no simple disinfection traditions, and only a few traditional knife and wound drugs, so the mortality rate caused by the worsening of the infection of the wounded was quite high.

Every general's face, there are tears, everyone is silent, after a bloody battle to achieve the glorious victory of Chengdu City has not yet been celebrated, but with the wing king Shi Dakai seriously injured the end, the joy of victory turned into worry and sadness.

Shi Dakai was quite strong, and ordered the generals to immediately lead all teams to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Qing army in the city, and occupy all key points, control materials, post notices to reassure the people, and strictly enforce military discipline, "To prevent unscrupulous people from rioting, but also to stick to the city gate, to prevent the Qing army from sneaking up and counterattacking!" ”

"Yes!"

The generals left one after another, and Luo Yang also led the team to the south of the city, he was responsible for the aftermath of the most tragic and fierce battle in the south of the city, led the troops, and contained all the Taiping brothers who died in the battle, counted the number of people, determined the names, dug pits and buried them, set up markers, collected all kinds of lost weapons, and brought them back to the city.

The battle of Chengdu was the first big city captured by Luoyang after crossing the Taiping army, and the majesty was greatly inspired, and in this battle, the Taiping army won more with less, attacked the city, and achieved a complete victory. After two days, the results of the battle were statistically verified, and more than 4,700 Qing infantry and other people were killed, more than 11,000 Qing troops were wounded and captured, more than 700 Qing cavalry were killed, more than 400 enemy cavalry were wounded and captured, and a number of various materials were captured, including 43 cannons and more than 2,300 shells, more than 2,100 foreign guns, more than 6,000 carrying guns and earthen guns, and more than 5,800 sabers, iron spears, and waist knives. Three hundred and ninety-two horses were seized. More than 4 million catties of grain were seized from the enemy alone.

The biggest victory in the battle of Chengdu also lies in the fact that the Qing army was defeated in the case of elite troops and strong cities, the supreme commander Luo Bingzhang, the governor of Sichuan, was captured, the deputy official Liu Rong was captured, the Manchu Eight Banners general Chongshi fell off his horse and was seriously injured after escaping, and a group of fierce generals such as Yang Yinggang were killed, and the core ruling system of the Qing army in Sichuan basically collapsed.

The Taiping army paid a certain number of casualties, including 3,600 dead on the battlefield, more than 400 died after the war, and more than 1,300 were wounded. Consume a batch of ammunition.

The casualties of the Taiping army mainly occurred in the south of the city when they were attacked by the Qing cavalry, and in the south of the city alone, the Taiping army had 2,900 killed and 600 wounded, accounting for nearly 70% of the total casualties.

In two days, the Taiping army quickly consolidated its position in Chengdu, repaired the city gates and city walls, collected military supplies, quickly manufactured gunpowder and flying thunder cannons, etc., and also extensively mobilized the people, recruited troops, quickly replenished 8,000 soldiers, divided troops to guard the city defense, and gained a firm foothold.

However, two days later, the injury of the winged king Shi Dakai gradually deteriorated, and the blood flow did not stop, and later, the blood was almost gone, and then what flowed out was yellow water, and even turbid white pus, the hot season and deep injuries caused serious infection complications, and at noon on the third day, Shi Dakai had fallen into a coma and could not get a drop of water.

All the generals were gathered in the Taiping Army headquarters in Chengdu, where, a few days ago the Qing Dynasty Sichuan Governor's Mansion Yamen was located, the glorious and solemn buildings, the wide courtyard, changed the flag, and took on a new look.

In the room, there was a low cry, Shi Dakai's five wives and concubines were all serving in front of the bed, and even several younger sons, the eldest five-year-old Shi Dingzhong, was also in front of him.

"Winged King? Wing King? The concerned cries of several princesses finally saved Shi Dakai's consciousness, and he opened his eyes with great difficulty, looking at everyone with cloudy eyes.

The generals hurriedly stepped forward with tears in their eyes. In any case, these people were all picked up by him, and they were born and died for many years, the real brothers of life and death, the feelings are so deep that it is unimaginable that even Luo Yang also has deep respect for the leader of the peasant rebel army. 、

Shi Dakai struggled to get up, and Pan Wangniang and Liu Wangniang hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Shi Dakai, who sat up, was in a trance, and after watching it for a long time, he beckoned to Luo Yang and said in a low voice: "You come!" ”

Grabbing Luo Yang's hand, Shi Dakai glanced at the generals with infinite sadness, his eyes stayed one by one, and then he turned back to find his wife and concubine, and he also faced them one by one, and finally, when the five-year-old Shi Dingzhong was hugged over, his tears rolled out all of a sudden. He reached out and touched his son's head and nodded.

In the end, his gaze once again swept over the generals, pointed at Luo Yang with his finger, and pointed again and again.

The generals looked at Luo Yang together, at a loss.

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Shi Dakai pointed to the pillow on the bed, and then pointed to his five princesses, and then smiled.

Breathing quickly and weakly, Shi Dakai's energy was quite less, he lay down and rested for a while, sat up again, pointed at his son, and then pointed at Luo Yang.

Just as everyone was speculating about his intentions, he suddenly lost his strength and lay down in the back.

He quickly fell into a coma due to the persistent high fever caused by the infection, and the three wounds emitted an unsettling stench.

In the evening of the same afternoon, the generation of heroes of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom stopped breathing.
