In the village that Dexing'a saw, Wu Ruxiao, who had withdrawn from Pukou ahead of schedule, had already been guarding here before the siege battle began. Of course, there is far more than just one of his teams here, the third and fourth regiments of Ye Yunlai, who came from Chuzhou, also spread out on his two wings at the same time.
In the makeshift trenches on the front line, the Red Army officers and men stared at the routs who were gradually approaching with wide eyes. Behind them, in the village and on both sides, were rows of red cavalry ready to attack. Under the reflection of the morning glow, the battle flag is fiery red, and the red stars radiating dazzling light reflect the young faces, the same fiery red.
On the land of Pingchuan, another red storm is about to sweep away.
When Dexing'a's rout finally approached the village, he was confronted by a wall of fire rising from the ground, and many of the generals fell down in a daze. The Red Army soldiers who were in ambush were like iron gates, intercepting the frenzy of loyalty and righteousness to save the ** retreat.
Seeing the loyal rescuer in front of him turn over on his back and scatter the road he came from, Wu Ruxiao sat on a high house in the village and smiled with satisfaction. However, he still did not give the order to attack. In the binoculars, he noticed that the friendly troops killed in Pukou had just organized with the loyal and righteous rescue**, and he also noticed that the loyal and righteous rescue** was gradually concentrating again under the guidance of a big banner. He carefully observed the angry general under the banner with great interest, watching his war horse circling, the short gun in his hand dancing wildly, and his mouth kept opening and closing, although he couldn't hear what the guy was shouting, Wu Ruxiao already understood that he was preparing for a counterattack.
waited until Zhongyi rescued ** and frantically rushed to his blocking position again, and the fierce gunfire started again, Wu Ruxiao stood up with a cry and yelled at the heralds below, "Fire!" ”
The grenadiers set up in the village accompanied his orders, and one shell after another flew with a whistling towards the dense team of loyal rescuers.
This attack team, which was already a chaotic organization and was barely put together for a glimmer of hope for survival, collapsed in an instant.
Wu Ruxiao jumped on the war horse, pulled out the snowy saber, and stabbed at the sky, "For the sake of the Celestial Empire, go forward!" With his shout, the war horse swooped down, and a dozen trumpeters lined up sounded the trumpet at the same time.
"For the sake of the Celestial Empire, forward!" The same cry, accompanied by the sound of iron hooves churning like war drums, shook the earth and resounded through the sky, from behind him and from his wings.
The three regiments of Ye Yun on the right flank, and the four regiments on the left flank, followed by one regiment, blew the trumpet of the charge, and with the same shout, they came out.
Dexinga has seen a general battle, but he has never seen it, let alone imagined that there is such a battle. Behind the blood-red banners, the fierce cavalry that could not be seen at a glance was like a yellow wind rolling up in the sky, chasing him when he had just encountered a head-on attack and was turning around and roaring back to the generals. Before the fight, this momentum alone has already overwhelmed a qiē. Especially the earth-shattering "For the sake of the Celestial Empire, forward!" The scream made him shudder.
Dexing Ah sighed, he knew that it was about to end, and what happened to the Third Association would be repeated here. He once again looked around at the men who were scurrying around, and in front of such an opponent who had taken advantage of the numerical and psychological advantage, defeat seemed to be doomed.
He was wrong. He forgot a little, and now the street fighting in Pukou City continues. Judging from the number of people alone, the Red Army of the Celestial Empire only had a total of six regiments and one battalion, less than 10,000 people, which was less than half of the army led by Ta Dexing'a. Only here, he did have the upper hand, and four regiments of people in front and behind, left and right, surrounded his tired and hungry 3,000 men. From beginning to end, the Red Army of the Celestial Empire took advantage of its huge psychological advantage, first handed him an empty city to carry on his back, and then forced him to choose to flee, and finally used the local advantage to annihilate his main force in one fell swoop.
War is a game, a psychological and spiritual game. De Xing'a's final escape determined the time course of the entire campaign. If you don't escape, you will be destroyed, and if you flee or you will be destroyed, the ending will be the same.
In less than half a day, a qiē regained its calm, and the only thing that could still be seen that there had been a great battle here was the corpses lying sideways inside and outside the city before they had time to clean up, and the rising gunsmoke.
"Commander Pan, do we want to go to Pukou this time?" Looking at the more dilapidated Pukou city walls, the generals who followed Pan Qiliang to inspect Pukou couldn't help but ask a question while being happy.
"Yes, whoever says no, of course we do." Pan Qiliang repeated the previous words, and then he smiled, "However, even if we don't need to send heavy troops to guard it, the Qing Demons won't dare to come here again, this is their grave." ”
"Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity, our regiment hastened and desperately broke Dexing's rearguard, and still let him die in the chaos. Alas, we shouldn't show our faces! Wu Dingcai looked at Ye Yunlai, who was laughing, and first pouted his lips regretfully, and then patted his chest quite smugly, "However, Xue Zhiyuan, Zhang Yuanlong, Li Yun, and Han Xiufeng's dogs have all fallen into the hands of Lao Tzu, and the harvest is not small." Hehe, this qiē also thanks to Brother Liu's care. As he spoke, he smiled at Liu Mingyuan next to him.
Liu Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, then grinned, "Senior Wu is too polite, we don't mean to take care of you, we don't have the time to take care of them." It's better to kill these things than to kill those foreign hairs and some bullshit. However, now that there is nothing to do, it is quite interesting to use them for sacrificial knives. ”
"I'll see it." Wu Ruxiao looked at Pan Qiliang and shook his arm, "Deputy brigade commander, none of these damn traitors can be left, they are all pulled out and chopped together to relieve their anger." ”
"Hehe, don't worry." Pan Qiliang held the battlement with his hand, and looked at the people below who began to help the old and the young to return to their homes one after another, "In addition to organizing forces to immediately repair the destroyed city walls and resettle the people, we also have to prepare a celebration ceremony with great fanfare, in front of the fathers, elders, brothers and sisters in the city, send the traitors to the gallows, and the corpses for three days, so that everyone can see the fate of daring to betray the Celestial Empire!" ”
In less than five days, on the southern front, the Red Army of the Celestial Empire completely annihilated the loyalty and righteousness of the two associations. On the northern front, taking advantage of the misjudgment of the Qing army, Hu Yihuang and Lin Qirong's two armies and horses, when the vanguard swaggered to the outside of Xuyi City, the main force suddenly turned east by surprise, quickly crossed the Chihe River, and conquered Dingyuan City, a military important place known as the "thoroughfare of nine provinces". This time, not only did he stab Katsuho hard in the back of his ass, but he also got an unexpected gain. This harvest made the original advantage of the Qing army in Huainan almost instantaneous.
This has to start with a person who is inseparable from sin, he is Miao Peilin.
Miao Peilin, the word Yusan, a native of Fengtai, Anhui Province, was born in Xiucai, "suave and ambitious", and quite ambitious. It is said that this person, who admired Cao Cao very much, wanted to become a hero in troubled times, and even called him the king and emperor, and established his own independent kingdom. In this era, the situation of "drawing flags with pillars and beads" that appeared in the north and south of the great river also provided conditions for him to realize his personal ambitions.
Since the Taiping army invaded Anhui in 1853, the two sides of the river have become the hottest war area between the Celestial Empire and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Huaibei is the base of the Twist Army, where the Qing army and the Twist army are also engaged in endless fierce battles. The shielding from the south and the north enabled Miao Peilin to "strengthen the officials and bandits, and the first party", and the two Huai regions then took place the "Huaibei Change" -- the rise of the Miao Peilin Group.
In this specific social and cultural circle in the Binhuai area, the folk customs are fierce and the geographical location is special, "since ancient times, the heroes of the strange people, the prolific Huaidian, and the traitorous male grass coward, the cross-state refusal of the dynasty, also often out of the Huai, Cai between, its terrain is also!" Miao Peilin's Fengtai "Lao Village" is regarded as an important place on the verge of Huai, "across Huai, Huai, barrier north and south, people and practice, it is really an extremely dangerous place, Miao Peilin originally intended this map to be a nest, and then west to swallow Ying (state), Bo (state), east to Ling (Bi), Su (state), in order to and according to the plan of Changhuai", Miao is the use of this troubled times to rise in the land of Linhuai, this kind of rebel army and the Manchu army fierce battle between the gap area.
However, the good times were short-lived. After the Twist Army was incorporated into the Anhui Provincial Self-Defense Army by the Celestial Empire, its power rapidly expanded to Fengtai at the same time. In order to keep his own territory and realize his future dreams, Miao Peilin recruited troops to confront the Self-Defense Army, and repeatedly defeated the Twist Army...... Far and near are afraid, all of them seek to be attached, and those who attach them lead the flag to distinguish themselves from the officials. In the past two years, Feng and Ying have been hundreds of miles, all of which are seedlings." In the area under his control, not only could the self-defense army not set foot in it, but even the rule of the Qing government also existed in name only.
"The people of Huaibei and the north are fierce, hungry and cold, and gather in the mountains and rivers for thieves, and they are good at soothing them, and they are also well prepared." In order to eliminate the "big trouble of the henchmen", and in view of Miao Peilin's confrontational attitude towards the twister, after Shengbao presided over the overall situation of Suzhou and Anhui, the Qing court began to adopt a soft policy towards Miao Peilin. Miao Peilin is not a foolish person, in the face of the swarming Manchu army, he knows that he is far from being able to be completely autonomous, so he accepted Shengbao's recruitment, and recognized this teacher, and began to follow the Manchu Qing into the crazy strangulation of Zhang Lexing's Anhui Provincial Self-Defense Army. It is precisely for this reason that in just half a year, the Empress Dowager Cixi, who enjoyed the caress of Mr. Consultant with a chest hair in the Forbidden City, issued twelve edicts in a row to reward Miao Peilin.
With Zhang Lexing's final complete withdrawal from Huaibei, Miao Peilin gradually became bigger. "The official army borrowed the seedlings to train to control the twist, and he also used the official power to call for it", so that "the training then held the government hostage to show it".
