Zeng Guoquan [ran fast, and his subordinates also slipped away, quickly mixed out of the city, fled to the riverside, and wanted to find the fleet, but unfortunately, the Qinglou wind and dust ship there had been intimidated and driven away by the Huaxia army, and after a look at the situation, those lights, the sensitive Zeng Guoquan found out that something was wrong, there were not so many warships,

"Hurry up, something is wrong here."

"Jiu Shuai, what's wrong." Someone asked,

"Nothing is right." Zeng Guoquan was angry,

"But, Marshal, we really didn't fight the enemy a few times, and we were defeated like this."

"Do you want to die?" Zeng Guoquan was annoyed and ashamed: "Our people are scattered everywhere looking for the remnants of the long-haired bandits, there are only more than 4,000 people in the city, how can they be the enemy's opponents, besides, the enemy situation is unknown, and the hard battle is not good, I should withdraw as soon as possible, go,

Immediately send men to greet us round about the city, and gather our men together as much as possible. ”

"Yes."

Zeng Guoquan led his cronies to a certain place in the west of Nanjing City, and hid it, at this time, there were countless torches swimming in the sky above Nanjing City, and the noise was endless.

"Ahh Zeng Guoquan suddenly shouted,

"Jiu Shuai, what's wrong." Admiral Liu Songshan, the general of the Hunan army, asked,

"Li, Li Reversed, Li Xiucheng." Zeng Guoquan pointed in the direction of Nanjing City,

The Hunan officers and soldiers immediately understood, but after thinking about it, they could only consider themselves unlucky, Liu Songshan comforted: "Nine marshals, come to Japan for a long time, and talk about it later, as long as our army gathers and defeats the long-haired thief again, everything will be in my urn." ”

Zeng Guoquan was unwilling: "We just caught Li Xiucheng, and we only caught it for a day, hey." ”

Under the cover of night, Luoyang's 8,000 infantry and artillery quickly entered the city of Nanjing, occupied the main place, and then sent patrol troops to guard the streets, city gates, and wait for dawn,

There are constantly small units of the Qing army crashing into the net, with strict identification procedures of the Chinese army, the enemy annihilated a large number of people, although the flame of the foreign gun is very obvious, but the Chinese army, which combines light and dark, still has the advantage, and the Hunan army, because it was suddenly attacked, became an underground worker, panicked, combat effectiveness was seriously affected, mainly escaped,

Skirmishes often occur, and the Hunan army, which was eager to escape, launched several raids on the city gate, after Luo Yang knew, he ordered the officers and soldiers to open the city gate, and let the Hunan army escape.

"King Rui, that's not right."

"There's nothing wrong with that, if we fight in the dark, we won't take advantage, and when the enemy gathers tomorrow, it's just right for our army to be wiped out."

"yes, got it." The Huaxia army, which faithfully carried out Luoyang's plan, really let go of the city gates, and only observed and guarded on the city tower, or stayed in the place inside the city, and let the enemy escape.

A large number of Qing troops fled at this time, while escaping, cursing, and fluke,

After dawn, the Luoyang army searched the city of Nanjing, only to find that there were really not many people in the city, because of the call of the female soldiers of the Taiping Army, and the persuasion of a large number of women, almost all the surviving people came out, and there were so many people, and it was indeed old, weak, sick and disabled, it is estimated that the young and strong people all died in battle, or were killed by the Qing army, and the young women either committed suicide or were snatched away by the Qing army, such as the two groups of women who survived and were rescued,

In the city of Nanjing, almost ten rooms and nine empty,

The Qing army's barracks were controlled, and there were several places, first distributing their food to relieve the victims, and then, quickly reorganizing the troops, guarding the city with female soldiers, gathering the rest of the troops, and marching to the west of the city.

Zeng Guoquan was like a vicious wolf, staying in the west of Nanjing City, he walked around, anxious,

A large number of Hunan troops fled back from the city of Nanjing, and after repeated recruitment, they finally collected 2,000 people, which shows that there must have been many Hunan officers and soldiers who were captured or killed by the enemy.

Sending many officers and soldiers to ask for help, Zeng Guoquan decided to concentrate his troops and fight to the death with the new enemy, he never believed that in front of him, there would still be an enemy who was victoriously alive.

"Nine Marshals." Liu Songshan asked worriedly: "There are too few officers and soldiers in our department, so let's retreat." ”

"Withdraw, thanks to your Lao Liu or a general mixed up by my Zeng Jiu's subordinates, as long as there are a thousand people, my Zeng Jiu will be able to dominate the world, and no one is afraid."

Zeng Guoquan, who was embarrassed and angry, continued to garrison, but not long after dawn, he saw some enemies coming, naturally enemies, according to the military flag or something, all the lights were displayed,

Luo Yang personally led more than 4,000 soldiers and horses, hundreds of cavalry, artillery, etc. to attack the enemy.

Soon, the two armies confronted each other, the distance between them became smaller and smaller, and the officers and soldiers on both sides were eyeing each other, and the real bloody battle was about to begin.

Suddenly, an army flashed out of the southwest, and on the distant horizon, dust was billowing and countless cavalry and infantry were swarming,

The two armies were observing the Hunan army of Zeng Guoquan together, and immediately shouted wildly, and the surprise was unusual, because it was the troops they had stationed outside to search for the rest of the Taiping Army.

"Ahh Liu Songshan shouted proudly on his horse, that was the main force of his troops, led by his nephew, who came to reinforce him,

Luo Yangjun waited, making the generals quite dissatisfied: "King Rui, let's fight quickly, if the Qing Demon comes together, we will have a hard time." ”

Luo Yang sneered: "It's good, we'll wait, as long as they all come, it's too late for me to like it." ”

"King Rui, look, how can this be." Some generals really didn't understand, "Shouldn't it be divided and disintegrated, and each one will be broken?" ”

"What you said is not bad, but, just this little bit of people on the other side, is it enough for us to eat, and our artillery hits so many shells, isn't it wasted?" Luo Yang said humorously,

"Ah, sure enough." Everyone suddenly realized,

Indeed, the more the enemy's forces are numerous and dense, and for such short-range artillery, the more concentrated the effect of the strike, the better,

The reinforcements of the Qing army arrived quickly, and the two armies converged into one place, and suddenly strengthened a lot, and the scale was encouraging.

"Nine Marshals." Liu Jintang came on horseback, arched his hands,

"Okay, Jintang, you're just in time." Zeng Guoquan looked at it, there were more than 4,000 troops and seven or eight battalions of reinforcements, and he was immediately overjoyed and confident.

More than 6,000 Qing troops, all of them are Hunan troops, long-trained troops, all with blood-red eyes and strong bodies, staring at the Luoyang army, as if they want to eat them one by one.

Luo Yang looked at the opposite side, couldn't help but feel mixed feelings, and immediately dispatched people to shout to the front: "Hey, the Qing demon in front listen, our Huaxia Tian** Rui King said, as long as you are willing to surrender, we are willing to accept all of you, and the rank and position of every officer and soldier will not be reduced." ”

When Zeng Guoquan and the others heard this, they were inexplicable at first, and then they were furious, and immediately ridiculed each other: "Oh, the brother opposite, the long-haired thief, you must know that your Hong Shun Xiuquan is dead, and your Tianjing City has also been taken down by us, you are already at the end of the road, if you are willing to surrender, you will kowtow a hundred on the battlefield, and we promise to spare your little life." ”

The Qing army will not surrender easily, let Luo Yang be lonely, he pities these people, no matter what, ordinary officers and soldiers are Chinese, even if they rob and burn, it is mainly the indulgence of the generals, if these people can be organized into the Chinese army, in the future on the battlefield against foreign devils, what a great army,

Zeng Guoquan hated the Huaxia Army in his bones, and personally jumped to his feet and scolded, so more than 6,000 Qing troops raised their arms together, aimed the filthy words at this side, and poured down like heavy rain.
