"Stop!" Wei Jun glared at Zhang Shoulin "viciously", "What impulsive, don't damage your proper identity." As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Mingchuan with contempt, turned around and left, and dropped a cold sentence before leaving, "Death is the easiest thing, I'm afraid you won't live at all...... Guts. He originally wanted to say, "I'm afraid that you don't have the face to live at all", but just to save face for Director Lin's order, he temporarily changed it to the word "courage".
Whether he wanted it or not, Liu Ming became a prisoner of war of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire. Together with his men in the field south of Lao Yaling, he was temporarily detained until the early morning of the next day, and with the flow of prisoners of war around the fortress, Liu Mingchuan returned to Yongledu. Starting from Yongle Crossing, it is back to magic, which seems to be a simple back and forth, but it is like two heavens of ice and fire. Here, as Wei Jun told him, he met Liu Yuehui, and of course, there were no more two people who were arrogant and just passed by. Although Liu Mingchuan seemed to be very willing to say something to Liu Yuehui, whom he despised at this time, he had no time or opportunity to say it. Under the strict armed escort of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire, they could only look at each other, and reluctantly boarded the ship of Nandu.
In the prisoner of war camp of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire, Liu Mingchuan began to have the opportunity to communicate with Liu Yuehui, because they lived in the same room. Maybe it's because of the same disease, after the first mutual swearing, the two seem to have become friends within a few days. From Liu Yuehui's mouth, Liu Mingchuan learned the details of the loss of Yongle Fortress. Alas, what a providence! Not long after he left the Yongle Fortress with a large group of men and horses, although the momentum of the Taiping Red Army on the south bank was gradually slowing down, Liu Yuehui always had to defend the ferry wholeheartedly, so that it seemed that he neglected the defense of the fortress, so that the cunning Taiping Red Army could take advantage of it, but could this be wrong? It's not that my army is incompetent, it's just that the *** "red bandits" are too cunning! Liu Mingchuan had no choice but to sigh.
Five days later, in the cell where the rare two people had been clean for a few days, the cell door opened, and there were several familiar faces at once. Still as Wei Jun predicted, the brothers Liu Yuezhao and Liu Yueshu, plus several generals Xie Jingchun, Hu Zhonghe and others, who were also from Hunan Province, were in a hurry to attend an extremely important military rally, and everyone really got together on time.
The news that the military horses of the northern aid had been annihilated halfway was almost brought into Rui County by Liu Mingchuan's subordinates, who were captured and put back, almost with the arrival of more and more Red Army troops of the Celestial Empire who participated in the siege, and reported to Liu Yuezhao, who was like ants on a hot pot. And then, as if deliberately trying to trick him, several of Huang Chunxi's defeated soldiers also "ran" back. At this moment, the news of the defeat of the two places was like a thunderclap, which suddenly exploded the entire Ruixian county.
This shows that the Taiping Red Army has already sent troops on all fronts! Not to mention that the generals were apprehensive and inevitably complained, even Liu Yuezhao himself regretted his inadequacy of the prediction of the Taiping Red Army not long ago. Why should I think that the Taiping Red Army came from Puzhou? Why didn't I think that they forcibly occupied Fenglingdu and Yongledu? If you think about it early, at least you can still follow your own ideas no matter whether you advance or retreat!
The Red Army of the Celestial Empire, which had been strengthened by a large number of soldiers and horses outside the city, began to "attack" the county seat almost day and night, without giving up for a moment. He had a big head, swollen eyes, and blisters on his lips that made it difficult to speak. A boss is busy like this, as for how sad the soldiers below will be, it is conceivable. Rui County can't hold it! This has almost become a common consciousness hidden in the hearts of the generals.
In fact, Liu Yuezhao, who was used to running, didn't think about another golden cicada coming out of his shell, but after thinking about it repeatedly, he still reluctantly gave up this idea. Because it's not the same here as Luoyang. When Luoyang was besieged, the ordinary people in the city were crazy and wanted to run out of the city, but in the barren Rui County in this projectile land, it was surprising, not only did the people not run, but they closed their doors tightly, as if the rotten house that would fall down when the broken wind blew was a steel fortress. In this way, there is only one way to go.
People want to walk, and everyone cares about the path to take. Soon, the soldiers and generals of the four gates of strict defense found some clues from the siege of the Taiping Red Army. In all directions, the southeast, northwest, and cold eyes seemed to have no loopholes to exploit, but after a few days of careful observation, the strength of the Taiping Red Army outside the north gate was obviously much thinner. Why is it so thin here? Could it be that there is fraud again? Liu Yuezhao was afraid of being deceived, even if he really encountered a bargain, he might not dare to talk about it.
Liu Yuezhao was suspicious, but the soles of his generals had already been oiled, and they were waiting for the marshal's order. In order to confirm the feasibility of escaping north, several senior generals, including Liu Yueshu, made a full day of full argumentation in Liu Yuezhao's marshal mansion. In the Zhongtiao Mountain Pass of Yuxiang in the north, there has long been a team of Shanxi Defense Army's men and horses, why is the strength of the Taiping Red Army outside the north gate thin? It was precisely because Tong Guò observed for several days that some of the Taiping Red Army showed signs of moving some troops northward, and it was clear that they were afraid of being attacked from behind by the Shanxi Defense Army. For the army trapped in Rui County at present, going north is the only way out, once the Shanxi defense army can not hold on, and the line to Yuxiang is stuck by the Taiping Red Army, then the lives of these more than 1,000 brothers will be gone.
Don't look at Liu Yuezhao teaching his brothers a lesson, he always likes to talk about the art of war, of course, it is not excluded that he really watched the art of war of Sun Tzu, Sun Bin, Guiguzi, etc., or like his master of the Qing Dynasty, he has watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". However, when it was really his turn to make a decision, Liu Yuezhao's head was one size bigger than anyone else. What is good is that after listening carefully to the discussions of the generals, it was almost after the quarrel of the generals, Liu Yuezhao, who had no personal opinion, gritted his teeth and was about to run away.
Don't look at Liu Yueshu, who was ordered to preside over the overall situation again and was ready to break through, he usually played, but at the critical moment, it was not that he didn't have a brush. First of all, he set the time for the breakthrough at the fourth watch, which was originally the time when his subordinates were least accustomed to fighting, and he believed that the Taiping Red Army generals outside the city would not fail to understand this. Now that everyone understands that once this is done, isn't it "surprise" in response to the art of war? Secondly, he arranged for Xie Jingchun, who was in charge of the rear of the palace, to carry out a fierce artillery bombardment of the Taiping Red Army in the east of the city before the main force left the city to break through the siege, making a breakthrough out of the city, and inducing the Taiping Red Army to concentrate all its attention on the east of the city. The main force, without artillery preparation, took advantage of the gap between the enemy's siege and once again took the lead of the iron cavalry team to suddenly attack the city, which was called "attacking it unprepared".
For the Liu brothers, the breakthrough was difficult to believe at first. In any case, except for the fact that I don't know if it was because of the slight slowness of the action, I was blocked by the Taiping Red Army at both ends of the re-encirclement just after leaving the city, and thus provoked the Taiping Red Army to follow Xie Jingchun's troops who attacked the city, most of the men and horses still broke through the defense line of the Taiping Red Army smoothly.
As soon as he heard Liu Yueshu say this, Liu Mingchuan lowered his head and touched the wound on his right arm that had been forcibly bandaged by the medical staff of the prisoner of war camp, and sneered lightly, "Alas, how do you know that it was out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den!" ”
Liu Yueshu looked at Liu Mingchuan, who was yin and yang, and then looked at the eldest brother who had been silent, shook his head with a wry smile, and said no more. What else to say? Now that everyone has come together, isn't the result self-explanatory?
Liu Yuezhao was even more speechless. Thinking of all the people here in the past, one by one is more bullish than the other, even if they don't dare to claim that Sun Wuzi is in the world, then at least it is almost Sun Bin reincarnated, how can I think that now they are all in the same prison, what else is there to say?
Alas! At that time, as soon as he broke out of the defense line of the Taiping Red Army, it was like a bird that had escaped from the cage, and Liu Yuezhao almost cried excitedly. Although the shouts of the Taiping Red Army were still ringing behind them, and although the men and horses that were left behind were being eaten away by the pursuing Taiping Red Army one by one, it was much better than them blocking in front and having no way to run. Run, run, how long he ran, he didn't seem to remember clearly, only knew that he was drenched in sweat when he sat down and sat down, and the sweat soaked his trouser leg that was clamped on the horse's belly. In short, it is a lack of running people. But what happened next, just like Liu Ming's legend just now, struggled to leave an encirclement, but unexpectedly crashed into another encirclement.
This time, Liu Yuezhao really shed tears. Although the dawn of the morning came out, the mountain air in the early morning was even more fresh and refreshing, but it was not easy to run to the present Zhongyi to save **, and what I saw was the dense Taiping Red Army waiting for work. The generals around Liu Yuezhao have obviously lost any will to resist, although there are still a small number of generals who are running like flies without their heads, most of the generals are either raising their hands, or simply lying on the ground, snorting and panting, which clearly means that they finally don't have to run anymore. These unlucky bastard soldiers didn't even get a chance to change their clothes!
When acquaintances meet, even if they are in prison, there should always be fewer people and less fear, right? Not really. After the freshness of the first day, this prison with several more people was not as good as when Liu Mingchuan and Liu Yuehui were there. If you want to talk about it, you can blame Liu Yuezhao for a dream in his sleep that night. In Hunan, the defeated Zeng brothers and other Xiangxiang generals he was familiar with, except for Zeng Guofan himself, have become sacrifices in front of the Confucian Temple, and now that he has come to this point, he is not far from the situation of those fellow villagers. Don't look at the co-ordinator of loyalty and righteousness to save **, carrying a lot of Qing treasure money, he didn't care when he was majestic and full of style, but now he is more afraid than anyone else, so that he has nightmares every night.
Liu Yuezhao's fear spread to everyone in the prison like an infectious disease.
