After three or five minutes, the Qing cavalry became a small black dot scattered in the south of Chengdu, drilling into the camp towards the greener grass.

The Taiping army erupted in cheers to celebrate their great victory.

Luo Yang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, commanded the artillery on the city wall, immediately counted the remaining weapons and ammunition, and prepared for a new battle.

The battle of Chengdu is destined to be a life-and-death decisive battle, because there is no way to retreat, because to defend the majesty of the Hunan army, Luo Bingzhang has never thought of any possibility of retreat, Luo Bingzhang, the governor of Sichuan, the general Chongshi, the general of Chengdu, and Liu Rong, the political envoy, etc., all divided their forces and guarded the city, all believed that they could resist the Taiping army for a long time, especially the Qing officers and soldiers who had experienced the battle of Jiluo and the battle of the Dustpan Bay Pass, as well as Liu Rong, who basically understood the battle situation, all believed that the long-haired army was able to take advantage of the powerful artillery, but once they entered the city wall to attack and defend the battle, in the face of the power of the dense Qing army's artillery, the long-haired army had absolutely no chance.

Luo Bingzhang, who returned to the governor's mansion, was quickly woken up, and a piece of news made him throw all the chess pieces in his hand far away!

"The long-haired army has broken through the south gate of the city and is swarming in!"

Playing with the chess game, pretending to be a famous general, he has the demeanor of a celebrity, he can no longer care about face, and gallops towards the south gate of the city with his legs, if it weren't for his cronies and subordinates who rushed to carry a sedan chair to protect him, and even a governor who ran away with his shoes, how much joy should he have?

When he led 200 of his own soldiers back to the vicinity of the southern wall of the city, he saw from a distance that a group of Qing troops were fighting and fleeing, retreating towards his position.

Swinging the foreign pistol in his hand, Luo Bingzhang shot in the air, which was also the first real operation practice in his life.

"Return to the battle, otherwise, Benduge will kill him!"

The old man's shouts could be described as hoarse, but all the defeated Qing soldiers simply ignored them and continued to escape, only a few found out that something was wrong and hurriedly turned to dodge.

The angry Governor Luo shouted and led his troops to charge forward, because there was immediately a Taiping army on the opposite side.

The powerful Governor's Palace Guard intercepted and expelled the attacking Taiping army, and also killed several and captured two, because of the shock of defeat, Governor Luo was so angry that he personally cut a prisoner of war into two with a saber.

"Kill!"

The Qing army was generally defeated, but under the supervision of Luo Bingzhang and the reinforcements of the Qing army in other areas, the fresh force of more than 3,000 people quickly launched a counteroffensive and pushed the battle line back to the area around the south gate.

In fact, the Taiping army did not have many troops chasing after the north into the city, because there was a fierce battle under the south of the city, and when the Luoyang army shifted its target and began to relax a little, Wei Pucheng, who was in charge of the command in the north, had already sent people back and urgently called for reinforcements.

Luo Yang sent Zeng Shihe to lead part of the cavalry back to the outside of the city to rescue Shi Dakai on the other hand, and led all the artillery and infantry to the north. With his own elite troops, plus a large number of troops crowded into the city, Luo Yang already had more than 5,000 people in his hands, and immediately split up to the north to reinforce the front line.

The Taiping troops, who were frightened by the Qing cavalry and fled into the city, were also shocked by the cheers above and outside the city, knowing that the enemy army had been defeated, so they were all guilty and surprised, and they also quickly restored their formation.

With reinforcements and a numerical advantage, the Taiping army quickly defeated the Qing army, and surrounded the personal army of Luo Bingzhang, the governor of Sichuan of the Qing army, who did not retreat.

After Luo Yang arrived, he found that the Qing army was extremely stubborn, and immediately set up foreign artillery to bombard, after more than a dozen cannons, these Qing troops collapsed, suffered all the dead and wounded, and lost the ability to resist, and the Taiping army swarmed up and captured its wounded and wounded.

Under the command of Luo Yang, the Taiping army gave full play to the power of the captured Qing army's light foreign artillery, and often arrived quickly in the local areas where the Qing army had a little ability to resist, and scattered the Qing army groups.

What made the Luoyang army happy was that the resistance of the Qing army was much weaker, and once it entered the city, the Qing army realized that defeat was imminent, so the will to fight quickly collapsed, and because most of the Qing troops here were formed by the militia and the townspeople, and the combat effectiveness was much worse.

Luo Yangyang instructed the generals of the Taiping Army to lead the troops and bravely intersperse and annihilate the living force of their people. These tactics are the most basic tactical principles of the People's Liberation Army, and they are handy in the use of a veteran Luo Yang, and these tactics have played an extremely important role in quickly defeating the Qing army and destroying the defense system.

The Taiping army divided into small groups and infiltrated the front, shouting loudly while attacking, and sometimes advancing silently, sneaking into some of the Qing army's defensive areas, and stabbing directly into some of the Qing army's defensive areas. It's a few dozen heads.

Liu Rong's troops were in the west of the city, and they knew the news early, and after some resistance, they found that the surrounding urban area was full of small units of the Taiping Army, and there were shouts everywhere, he was deeply frightened, and sent people to look for Luo Bingzhang, but some people said that Governor Luo and his personal troops had lost contact.

The frightened Liu Rong was a good strategist and a good official, but he was not a good general, he led the troops to look for him, but he was attacked by the Taiping troops who appeared on all sides, copied and killed, and the foreign guns and bullets fired from several streets and houses broke his arm, and he could only return to the position.

In the city of Chengdu, the most fierce resistance is the local general of the Sichuan army, Tang Yougeng, his troops of 5,000 people, in addition to discarding some weapons, ammunition, food and tents in the Dadu River, did not lose a single soldier, so, the strongest force, plus he himself is good at fighting ruthless battles, fighting evil battles, known as the Southwest Tiger idiot, is simply a fierce god and evil, leading the troops, desperately counterattacking.

The Qing army's defense force system was already chaotic, and they had to fight separately, so Tang Yougeng launched a ruthless attack, which was very violent.

More than a dozen Taiping guerrilla troops were annihilated by his troops, and he also ordered that the captured Taiping officers and soldiers be killed to death, and then cut off their heads or skinned people and held them up on swords and guns to strengthen the army's might.

In the case of defeat and retreat from all sides, Tang Yougeng's army has been counterattacking in front of Luoyang's army.

The Taiping army was affected by this sudden countercurrent, and also decisively took it as the central target, encircled and attacked, Zeng Shihe and other cavalry units have returned to the battle, Huang Zaizhong became the front commander, led the Taiping army to launch round after round of charge, and did not suppress the ferocious arrogance of Tang Yougeng's army.

Fighting here, it became the area with the most casualties of the Taiping army.

However, as soon as the Luoyang army arrived, it quickly turned the tide, and more than a dozen foreign artillery bombarded the ranks of the Qing army, which immediately caused hundreds of casualties to be killed and wounded by the Qing army, which was fighting to the death, and the rest of the place panicked and turned and fled.

Tang Yougeng saw that the situation was not right, and he didn't know how many Taiping troops there were, so he was worried about the fate of Hu Zhonghe in Songlinhe, so he hurriedly fled with his troops.

Perhaps it was the arrangement of fate, at this time, the Taiping army had already swam and lurked in Sichuan's forward troops, Lai Yuxin, finally came as promised, appeared in the west of Chengdu City, heard the sound of gunfire, the Taiping army on the west road immediately rushed to the city and began to attack. And Liu Rong, the political envoy of Sichuan, already knew that he was invincible, so he did not dare to resist, and led his troops to abandon the city. As a result, more than 10,000 Taiping troops on the West Road swarmed in.

The two Taiping armies attacked the city, completely defeated the Qing army, and captured a large number of officers and soldiers.
