In the vicinity of the Luo Mountain Road, the Luoyang Army firmly established its foothold, the infantry battalion was stationed in the mountain road, supplemented by the artillery battalion, and the rest of the troops were stationed in the south of the mountain road, for the cavalry troops, Luo Yang attached great importance to it, he found a problem, in this gun power is not large, especially in the case of low firing frequency and insufficient firepower, the power of the cavalry is quite significant, for this reason, he repeatedly asked the generals of the Taiping Army, in the previous battles, what is the role of the cavalry, etc., and summarized the combat experience in time.

Using the Western-made telescope mirror presented by Shi Dakai, Luo Yang stood on the high place of the mountain road, looking at the north of the mountain road, he found that the military camp of the Taiping army had been quite small, and on the opposite bank of the Dadu River that could be seen in the distance, there was a faint banner of the Qing army, the mountains and rivers were pressing, and a narrow basin was presented in front of him.

The scout cavalry arrived and told Luo Yang that another mountain road in the southeast, the Dustpan Bay Mountain Road, was hoarding a large number of Qing troops, heavily guarded, and could not be approached at all.

Luo Yang immediately gathered the main brigade commanders and discussed the next stage of the battle. He also brought in the main guide, Lai Youcheng and others, and inquired about the geographical situation in this area.

After a few simple words, everyone estimated that Shi Dakai's army was surrounded by the Qing army, and must have suffered great danger, and now the biggest task is to break through the Qing army's blockade and join Shi Dakai's army.

"There are no less than 10,000 people in the Qing Demon Army, and there are only so many people in our army, I'm afraid the strength is not enough, right?" Several brigade commanders were worried. In particular, the cavalry brigade commander felt that this kind of terrain was not conducive to the cavalry's actions.

In addition, after the meeting, everyone personally went out to spy on the situation of the Qing army on the north side of the mountain road, and found that after the Qing army suffered a sudden attack, it was true that the position was greatly reduced, but the position was greatly reduced, but the position and vigilance were greatly strengthened. It seems that the number of Qing troops near the north of the mountain road alone was four or five thousand.

Put all the difficulties out and discuss how to solve them.

"It's not necessary, now, everyone is talking about it so much, and I'm still worried, but this commander has two points to explain, first, the army of the Wing King must be surrounded by the Qing army. Second, we can easily break through the blockade of the Qing Demon Army and successfully rescue the Wing King army! ”

"This?"

Although Luo Yang created many myths, especially leading his troops south and becoming the only force that jumped out of the Qing army's encirclement and blockade, everyone felt that it was incredible, as if he was an unpredictable prophet, and still couldn't believe his assertions. After all, the Qing army is not pinched by you, and when the combat effectiveness of the units is normal, they are stronger than the Taiping army, and the complete victories of Tie Jae-jae and the Shaluo Pass can be regarded as two exceptions, which are the result of a sudden attack.

For the sake of safety, Luo Yang carefully interrogated the prisoners of war, and at the same time, ordered the troops to rest and recuperate, recover their strength, and prepare for a new battle.

The prisoners of war were terrified, because the onlookers of the Taiping soldiers were fierce and vicious, and they were about to use weapons and means against them. However, Luo Yang's gentle attitude, the determined way out, and his behavior of personally applying herbs to some wounded soldiers quickly changed the minds of the prisoners of war.

The accounts of the prisoners of war are different, dozens of prisoners of war were interrogated by multiple generals and leading officers under Luo Yang's unified arrangement, and a lot of messy information was obtained, but the main clues were very clear, and Luo Yang understood it after a little combination.

The preparations were rather cumbersome, but Luo Yang knew that it was necessary, and he was very cautious, and an hour after the victory of the attack, he ended the preparations and ordered the whole army to attack.

"We must open up the mountain road as soon as possible, join the army of the Wing King, and receive food and supplies!"

The situation is indeed very serious, because, on the thirteenth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, the vanguard of the winged king Shi Dakai rushed to the Dadu River, but it rained heavily on the same day, and in three days, the river water soared, and it happened that the Qing army Chongqing Town General Tang Yougeng Army 5,000 people arrived and set up a defensive line, and then, Cai Buzhong prefect and others also arrived with 3,000 elites, and then, Wang Yingyuan, a Yi person from Songlin Tusi, led more than 2,000 soldiers, and the Tibetan Tusi Ling Chengen of the Qiongbu led 3,000 native soldiers, and Yang Yinggang of the Yuexi Battalion, etc., arrived one after another, that is, Liu Rong, the political envoy of Sichuan, He also led thousands of troops to be stationed in the Fulin camp, and Hu Zhonghe, the general of the Hunan Army of Sichuan, also rushed to the battlefield with thousands of elites, and other regular troops of the Qing army and local regiments trained one after another to the battlefield to participate in the encirclement, which increased rapidly.

Shi Dakai's army crossed the river several times, but they were all defeated, especially when they crossed the river, more than 5,000 people were swept away by the soaring Dadu River! It is estimated that Shi Dakai's army only crossed the river several times, when more than 10,000 people.

A few days ago, the Qing army, which had set out from the Chaluo Mountain Road, made a surprise attack on the Ma'anshan military camp in the southeast of Shidakai's army, setting fire to its food and materials on the one hand, and attacking its soldiers and their families on the other hand. Shi Dakai's army has been hungry for several days because of the lack of food.

This is indeed the most critical moment, if it is only surrounded and bloody, with Shi Dakai's ability and demeanor, the resistance will continue, but if there is no food, no matter how powerful the army is, it will quickly lose its combat effectiveness and lose its survivability!

It's been almost five days, and the Taiping army at this time, let alone fighting, is good if they can stick to life!

Luo Yang thought that when he fought just now, the Taiping army in the north was still attacking the Qing army, and he couldn't help but admire. If their troops were not mixed with the clothes of the Qing army, they would definitely be able to break through the interception of the Qing army's formation.

"Yes! We must obey Commander Luo's orders, even if we risk our lives, we must also save the army of the Wing King! ”

"Yes, Commander Luo, you give the order!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill all the demons now! ”

Faced with the angry situation, Luo Yang mobilized his troops, and dispatched all the clumsy things that were kept in the logistics battalion, and also sent hundreds of explosive packs to the forefront.

"Brothers, the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people in the Wing King's army are all on us, and we must win in one battle!"

"Yes!"

Luoyang's troops quickly changed into their military uniforms, red jackets, hoods with red and yellow bands, and various weapons and equipment, and immediately gathered and lined up.

Luo Yang said a few words to the troops, and then transported all the clumsy shallow iron barrels of the logistics battalion to the front line.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today, we are going to blow up all the Qing Demon Army that stands in our way to ruins! Leave not a single one! ”

Everyone suddenly looked at Luo Yang in amazement, blowing up all the Qing troops into ruins? However, there are not many shells for foreign artillery.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a new type of cannon secretly developed by our army, and it is extremely powerful, as long as this kind of cannon appears, the Qing Demon Army will inevitably collapse on all fronts! Next, I ask that the brothers of the artillery battalion come over and listen to my explanation of the use of this cannon. ”

"Huh? This is also a cannon, huh? ”

"This kind of thing, that is, the flying thunder cannon, also known as the explosive bag projectile, can be dispensed with a huge amount of explosive packages, far away to the enemy's position, in the crowd, a large number of killing and wounding the enemy, it can be said that within two hundred and fifty meters, the Qing demon has absolutely no room for resistance! This is our army's weapon of great destruction, a sharp weapon of war, with this move, our army will win! ”

As a former soldier with a professional background in artillery, Luo Yang's artillery knowledge is sufficient, as early as the Mianning and Xichang periods, he adapted measures to local conditions, developed this kind of explosive package projectile cannon that once shined during the People's Liberation War of our country, and, under the condition of extreme secrecy, manufactured in large quantities, now, dozens of flying thunder guns have been prepared, and the huge caliber is aimed at the front.

"The infantry set off to challenge, the foreign spear team followed, and our whole army went down the mountain road to the north to attack the Qing demon!"
