The battle of Xinxiang has become an alternative battle of Bali Bridge, and it has also become another humiliating fiasco in the life of Seng Lingqin.

More than 10,000 cavalry troops are constantly impacting, overwhelming the mountains and seas, but Huaxia Tian** is too cunning,

No, their weapons are just too good,

Their cavalry, almost all of them are three weapons, long-range foreign gun shooting, slightly closer grenade bombardment, close is the saber struggle, j As a result, the vast majority of the Qing army has not been able to hold out to the moment when the saber fights and witnesses their own power quality,

After Luo Yang discovered the Qing army's attempt, of course he was surprised, he was already on the head of the city of Xinxiang, and immediately instructed all the artillery units that had entered the city, especially the foreign artillery units, to turn around and bombard the enemy.

Then, more than 300 skilled foreign spearmen returned to the outside of the city to help the battle, to help the troops outside the city, retreating step by step, shrinking into the city, half an hour later, the Chinese army all entered the city, occupied most of the city, and continued to advance, the Qing army was killed and wounded heavily, had to retreat again and again, and finally fled from the city, almost three city gates were opened, no matter how the officers reprimanded, the ordinary officers and soldiers fled without their lives,

The Huaxia army was near the city wall, sniping at the cavalry of Seng Lingqin, and under the indiscriminate guns and artillery, the casualties were miserable.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill." Monk Lingqin shouted almost frantically, eager to smash the entire Xinxiang city to pieces with a single sword,

After expelling all the Qing troops, Luo Yang was relieved, and immediately dispatched cavalry and artillery to go all out to counterattack out of the city and meet the Qing cavalry brigade.

Seeing that the Huaxia army was out of the city, Seng Lingqin became even more violent, and commanded the cavalry to charge lifelessly.

Foreign artillery bombardment, flying thunder artillery bombardment, more than 3,000 infantry of the Chinese army also rushed out of the city, lined up to protect the artillery, as a result, the flying thunder artillery advanced step by step, and forced the Qing army back more than 1,000 meters.

On the ground, there are people and horses killed in battle everywhere, and in many places, the corpses of the Qing army are piled up, so that the artillery of the Huaxia Army can't even push the flying thunder cannons, and the entire wilderness outside Xinxiang City has turned into a cyan Qing army coat and red blood.

The battle outside the city, with the stubbornness of Monk Greenqin, decided the length of the battle, and after an hour and a half, Monk Greenqin finally admitted defeat.

The Qing army retreated, but the monk who wanted to save face and suffer the crime insisted on rescuing the officers and soldiers who were wounded in battle.

The hanging upside-down military flag became a symbol of the Qing army's fiasco, and those horse teams gradually withdrew from the battlefield with coquettishness and mournful neighing, and made a detour to the north.

After losing Xinxiang, the Qing army could only retreat to Anyang in defeat, in order to hold on and continue to defend the southern barrier of Beijing.

In the Battle of Xinxiang, the Luoyang army once again won a major victory, and also expelled the main force of the Qing army far north of the Yellow River, ensuring the safety of the Luoyang area in Kaifeng.

The strength of the Huaxia Army is not much, five brigades, two cavalry and two infantry, the number of cavalry brigades is small, only 2,100 people, two brigades of 4,300 people, two infantry brigades of 6,500 people, a total of tens of thousands, and the artillery brigade has more than 1,200 people.

The Huaxia army sacrificed more than 330 people, mainly in the fight against the attack of the cavalry of the monk Lingqin, the loss of the cavalry, as for the infantry artillery siege, there were almost no losses,

Eighty-six wounded, with a total loss of four hundred and twenty,

The losses of the Qing army were much greater, which can be described as a crushing defeat.

The troops of the Xi'an general Mu Tushan lost three-quarters and 3,000 men, the troops of the Henan general Changshun relied on only 4,000 veterans and also lost 2,000 men, while the main militia in the city had 20,000 troops, all of which were temporarily recruited from various prefectures and counties, and 2,000 were killed, more than 2,000 wounded, and 3,000 were captured, with a damage rate of one-third.

This is the loss of more than 10,000 people, which is almost the same as the number of troops of the Luoyang army.

The most serious and terrible damage of the Qing army was the loss of cavalry, because, after a large loss of heavy weapons and a large number of infantry weapons such as foreign guns, the combat effectiveness of the Qing army was temporarily dominated by the cavalry of Seng Lingqin, and the more than 10,000 cavalrymen were all veterans who had been tested for a long time, shrewd and capable, and had extremely high quality.

It's a pity that such a strong army was actually gnawed off half of Luoyang's artillery and foreign spear infantry cavalry within two hours.

The aftermath of the capture of the Battle of Xinxiang lasted for many days,

The defeat of the Qing army caused almost all the weapons and ammunition of the dead and captured officers and soldiers to be handed over to the Huaxia army, and the newly hoarded military supplies in the city also became the trophies of the Huaxia army, with a large amount of gold and silver property, millions of catties of grain, and all kinds of equipment for building camps, etc.

Patrolling outside Xinxiang City, around Luoyang, there were cronies and cavalry, and everyone looked at the corpses of the Qing army all over the ground, and was elated: "Hahaha, the Qing demon finally knows that it is powerful." ”

"Yes, the Qing Demon has suffered a big loss again this time."

"King Rui, thanks to you."

"Look at so many war horses."

"Hahaha, we're rich."

For the Huaxia Army and Luo Yang, this battle, the only bit of prestige of Seng Greenqin was also wiped out, the battle of Kaifeng, Monk Greenqin also thought that he had just arrived, and was caught off guard by the Huaxia Army, and was more annoyed, more of a revenge mentality, this battle, I really know that the strength of the Huaxia Army is far from what he can contend with,

Defeated and retreated to a wilderness more than a hundred miles north of Xinxiang, Monk Greenqin suddenly ordered the troops to rest, and he sat depressedly on the edge of a withered wood, silent,

Seeing that he was too sluggish, the surrounding generals hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, but he immediately waved his hand to cover it and made everyone close their beaks.

"You're going to Beijing City." After a long time, he sighed and said,

"Monk, what about you?"

"Me." There was a trace of tears circling, and the general finally didn't cry, but the nasal voice was terrifyingly heavy: "You go back to Beijing, just report to the emperor and the queen mother, saying that my monk Grinqin is powerless to protect the country, and it has been, has been ......."

"Monk, you can't do this."

"Let's go."

"Monk, what about you?"

"I, I don't have the face to go back to the capital to see people." Monk Grinqin finally cried,

All the generals looked at each other,

The extremely depressed monk Lingqin almost committed suicide, was rescued by his generals, and ran back to Anyang in despair.

The news reached Beijing City in a hurry for six hundred miles, and in the Forbidden City, the military ministers headed by Devil Six were lost and depressed, and everyone's faces were as pale as paper.

"Lord Wang, what should we do?" A military minister Wen Xiang finally couldn't help it,

"Only willing to invite the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and the Emperor to decide." Prince Gong, who has always been shrewd and capable, blushed and didn't know what to do.

"But, Prince Gong, we have to come up with an idea first, the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces is actually not too familiar with the front of the army, and the emperor is young and young, you are the backbone of the Qing Dynasty." Weng Tonghe, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, advised,

"Perhaps, we can only mobilize the Hunan and Huai troops to go north to intercept it." Prince Gong sighed as soon as he finished speaking: "Then the southeast thief, don't you have another chance to breathe." ”
