In the face of the attack of Prince Gong's army, Luoyang's troops were indeed not psychologically prepared, whether it was the intensity or strength of the enemy's attack, and the time of persistence, it made Luoyang's troops break out in a cold sweat.

The Qing army of nearly 20,000 people, almost the whole army turned back, surrounded the north of the city, cavalry and infantry rushed indiscriminately, artillery bombardment, quickly broke through the city defense, and then assaulted into the city, as far as three miles into the city,

The Huaxia army immediately counterattacked, Luo Yang got the news, while sending troops to counterattack, while calling several officers of the cronies to the army, telling them to keep a close eye on the two queen mothers, not to mention the little emperor Tongzhi, once the situation is unfavorable, he can kill it, and it must not be put back to the Qing soldiers, and then, he personally led the troops, counterattacked the enemy, and rushed to the city wall of Beijing,

The combat effectiveness of the Qing army quickly weakened, once it was stalemate with the Huaxia army, the Qing army's funny combat skills became one of the reasons for the great increase in the mood of the Huaxia army.

Luoyang's army was not much, thousands of infantry, less than 4,000 cavalry, the total number was less than 8,000, but a counter-charge, a chaotic bombardment, the Qing army was defeated,

The cavalry of the Huaxia Army became the main force of the battle, and these Chinese athletes in the Central Plains became flying generals in the wilderness from ordinary peasants, plus foreign guns and grenades, and their strength was extraordinary, they chased the enemy in several ways, expelled the Qing army for more than ten miles, slashed and killed a large number of enemies, and captured a large number of fallen behind and disguised wounded and sick, including the Tao soldier,

It can only be said that the quality of the Qing army is not high, and the commander Prince Gong has ill intentions, so this counterattack seems to be anticlimactic and like a show.

Two days later, the 20,000 Chinese troops who set out from Baoding finally arrived in Beijing and stabilized the situation.

At this time, in Zunhua City, there was a huge scale of battle, first a cavalry regiment of King Ren Huabang of Lu was stationed here, reconnaissance and interception of the retreat of the Qing army in Beijing, and then, the Qing army rushed to the cavalry of the Huaxia Army and had a fierce battle, the Qing army fought with artillery, and the cavalry of the Huaxia Army was repulsed, so the Qing army decided to enter the city to rest and recuperate, and obtain supplies,

"Prince Gong, it's inconvenient for our army to stay for a long time, since Zunhua already has a thief army stationed, it shouldn't be safe." Li Hongzao, a university scholar, said,

"Yes, Lord Wang, although our army has won, it is also a bitter victory, a miserable victory, and it is a foolproof strategy to advance north quickly and retreat to Shenyang." University scholar Wen Xiang said that Wen Xiang is the brother of the Queen Mother of the West, and he is an absolute powerful core figure.

Prince Gong's iron-blue face finally slowed down a lot because of the victory here: "Who said no, but, our army withdrew from the capital, fought hard repeatedly, and was extremely tired, even if we can walk, others can't walk." ”

Prince Gong is right, there are too many people left behind in the Qing army,

Everyone followed his advice, led the troops, and stationed in Zunhua, after all, Zunhua is a big city, and there are people with food, etc., which can be rescued.

Who knows, that's a trap,

A cavalry regiment of the Huaxia Army, with more than 1,000 troops, although it is inferior to the enemy, it also has a strong combat power, especially the equipment of foreign guns and grenades, each soldier has several grenades, this kind of thing, after being manufactured in large quantities in the arsenals of Henan and Shaanxi, the troops are fully equipped.

Originally, it was to delay the enemy and converge the main forces to annihilate it, since the Qing army gathered in large numbers, it was not a good thing, the commander of the cavalry regiment had a smile in his eyes,

They sent a large number of people, alerted everywhere, and stared at these Qing troops.

In fact, the worries of the cavalry of the Huaxia Army were not superfluous, and after nearly 9,000 Qing troops were stationed, they began to go out of the north of the city early the next morning, so they began to attack the enemy.

This is a brutal battle, guerrilla warfare, the Chinese army has only 1,000 people, but it has to face 9,000 enemies, the enemy also has foreign artillery and other weapons, and they don't have them, only cavalry sabers, a hundred foreign guns, and a few grenades per person, so the battle can only be carried out in a small-scale form,

Wow, like a gust of wind, dozens of cavalry swarmed in the corn field, rushed into the ranks of the Qing army, rushed and chopped indiscriminately, and immediately cut down more than 200 Qing troops to the ground, and when the rest of the people reacted and bombarded with foreign guns and artillery, the cavalry of the Huaxia Army had already slipped away.

The Qing army was repeatedly disrupted, so the speed of the march was not very high.

An hour later, more than 2,000 cavalry of the Huaxia Army surrounded from the northwest region, which was the cavalry intercepted from the Rehe area, after learning the news, they quickly reinforced, more than 2,000 cavalry, because of the long journey, is not a new force, but that large red cloud-like formation, but really frightened Prince Gong,

"Quick, the enemy has an ambush."

"Yes, there is an ambush, it must be an ambush."

Prince Gong is so mighty, in the face of the British and French representatives during the negotiations in Beijing four years ago, he was able to endure the temper and fear of the lord, and now, he is indeed lost in his soul, the capital was broken, the two palaces and the emperor were captured, this is the first time that the Qing Empire opened the world, his heart is disturbed,

Two thousand cavalry of the Huaxia Army suddenly appeared, and immediately launched an attack, so that the offensive of the Huaxia Army in two places formed a huge scale, so that the terrible shooting of foreign guns, the shaking of those sabers, and the explosion of those grenades frightened all the Qing troops.

Actually, Prince Gong really doesn't know how many Huaxia troops there are.

The Qing army in the vanguard was routed, and the rest of the troops immediately fled behind when they saw that it was not good.

Prince Gong sent several generals to resist, urge, and hoarsely promised many rewards, but to no avail.

"Those who can repel the enemy will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver for each of the whole army."

"Those who can open up a way forward will be promoted to three levels in the company."

In front of the surging cavalry of the Chinese army, although the Qing army was stubbornly resisting, it was only hard to support, with a large number of casualties, to ensure that it would not be defeated for the time being.

Prince Gong saw that the situation was unfavorable, so he had to order a retreat and return to the direction of Zunhua City, fortunately they were only out of the city for more than ten miles, and when they saw the Qing army returning to the town in the south, the Huaxia army breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally blocked the enemy,

Because the exhausted cavalry of the Huaxia army did not attack in time, most of the Qing troops were able to return to Zunhua safely, and when they arrived in the city, the Qing army still had 7,000 men.

The sound of gunfire and artillery spread far and wide, and naturally, it also alarmed the cavalry of the other Chinese armies scattered on the ground for hundreds of miles around the long snake formation.

Here, it is the interception war zone of King Ren Huabang of Lu, 30,000 cavalry, has been allocated to Luoyang 5,000, the cavalry with a very fast speed, when the Qing army just retreated back to Zunhua, it gathered 5,000 people again, plus the original 3,000, 8,000 cavalry, besieged Zunhua,

The Huaxia army tentatively approached the city, and was immediately bombarded by the Qing army, and foreign artillery and foreign guns went into battle together, causing some casualties of the Huaxia army.

At noon on this day, more than 20,000 cavalry of the Huaxia Army all arrived, and the king of the Huaxia Heavenly Kingdom, King Lu, was in charge of the general command of Huabang and began a local siege operation.
