Chapter 397: This official is sorry for the Qing Dynasty (ask for subscription)
His uncle made a thief and a talented eagle dog, and led people to beat his nephew, which made Shang Zhixin's face ugly, and the generals of the Pingnan Domain also looked very weird, needless to say, I am afraid that there are many Han army colleagues who came with Shang Keyuan.
Ban Zhifu was in good spirits, and hurriedly asked the sentry how many soldiers and horses of the Taiping army had left the city. The sentry was also experienced, and with the banners and the length of the ranks of the Taiping army, it was estimated that the Taiping army should be about six or seven thousand people.
As soon as he heard that there were so many people, Ban Zhifu put his mind at ease and said to the generals: "I am afraid that there are only so many soldiers brought by the thief Xiucai, it is impossible for him not to leave troops to garrison Guangzhou City, and Shunde must also leave some soldiers, so that six or seven thousand people should be the largest mobile force on his hands." However, I thought that at most half of these six or seven thousand people were his old Taipingkou backgrounds, and the rest were mostly generals and troops, so there was nothing to worry about. Speaking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Shang Zhixin, and saw that the prince was listening with his ears pricked up, and didn't think much about his cousin's matter, so he put his mind at ease and continued: "These generals and soldiers are only afraid that their families are in the hands of the thief Xiucai, so they have to surrender, so the morale of the army is not too high, and they may not have much loyalty to the thief Xiucai, and they will definitely not sell their strength for him." Therefore, I thought that this battle was really going to be fought, and our chances of winning were very good. ”
Song Rui, the general soldier of Yingde, frowned and said: "Bandutong means that we want to fight with the thief Xiucai?" ”
"The soldiers and horses are in a hurry to fight us, it seems that we are in this place where the thief Xiucai is not at ease in Guangzhou, hum, he is also arrogant and overdone, I don't know how to occupy the territory of Shunde and control the mouth of the three rivers, and lead the army out of the city to fight with us in the field, this is not self-defeated?"
Ban Zhifu is very confident. If the thieves Xiucai and Xinhui let the city hold on like that and trap them alive, this battle really has no good chance of winning. After all, I don't know if Xu Erxian and Wu Liuqi will send troops immediately, but if they fight in the field outside the city, they will be majestic when the Japanese soldiers are under Xinhui City. His soldiers are complex, but they are not as pure as the Qing army in Sanjiangkou, as long as Kong Guozhi is willing to work hard, he will not be able to win a big victory, and he can also defeat the Taiping Kou. At that time, Kong Guozhi and they are afraid that they will not have the heart to run.
"The thief Xiucai sent it to the door by himself, and everyone didn't grasp it, but I'm sorry for this opportunity given by God."
Ban Zhifu looked at Kong Guozhi and Song Rui expectantly. Even Sun Yi, the deputy general of Nanxiong, who almost made him vomit blood just now, also had a good face.
"What do you say?" Kong Guozhi turned his head sideways and asked Song Rui about them.
Song Rui pondered for a moment and said, "If it is a field battle, I am not afraid of the Taipingkou, there are six or seven thousand of them. There are quite a few of us. There is no reason not to dare to fight them. ”
"I originally thought that the thief Xiucai was guarding Shunde to cut off our grain and trapping us alive, but now he is coming to fight with us in the field, hey, this Xiucai really doesn't take us seriously, let's fight, how can we run better than ourselves?"
Sun Yi was a little moved, if he really wanted to run. At most, he can only run with his own soldiers, so his subordinates will lose more than half. But if you fight the Taiping army in the field, you have a great hope of victory. These three estuaries are not Xiangshan, but there is no geographical advantage to let the thief Xiucai set up an ambush, and the two armies fight in a dignified manner, and the soft guy and the tough guy will know it as soon as they fight.
Shang Zhixin was also very moved, if the Taiping Army did not come out in Shunde City, there was a shadow of Xinhui, he really didn't have the mood to attack, but now he came out to fight, and it was difficult to say who would kill this deer.
"The thief Xiucai has knocked on the door, if we still want to run, wouldn't it make him laugh at our guts! I also hope that all the generals can put aside their distractions and work together to compete with that thief! Shang Zhixin was determined to fight, he stood up and looked at Kong Guozhi and them.
"Well, since the thief Xiucai is going to fight against us, then we will fulfill him, so that the thief Xiucai thinks that we are all afraid of him!" Nanxiong's deputy general Sun Yi echoed Shang Zhixin, and he was not willing to run away like this.
"Since His Royal Highness the Prince is going to fight, then okay, let's go and fight with him to see if his Taiping Army is really no one can control him!"
After Kong Guozhi and others repeatedly weighed the pros and cons, they also unanimously agreed to a decisive battle with the Taiping army. They are all killed by the sea of corpses and blood, all of them are ruthless masters, if it weren't for the fact that there is no way, they wouldn't have thought of running, and now the thief Xiucai is arrogantly coming over to fight them to the death, how can they not fight!
"Thank you, generals!"
Shang Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed to Kong Guozhi with a sincere face, and was so shocked that Kong Guozhi and them hurriedly returned the salute, saying that they deserved such a big gift from His Royal Highness the Prince.
At the moment, Shang Zhixin discussed with Ban Zhifu and Kong Guozhi about sending troops to meet the battle
"The soldiers forced the fat water and Chen, the Jin soldiers were not allowed to cross the beginning, but the Qin soldiers were few, Zhu Xu shouted after Chen: "The Qin soldiers are defeated!" The crowd rushed. Xu Yin, Zhang Tianxi, and Xu Yuanxi all came and went. Obtained the mica car that Qin Wangjian car. Regain Shouyang, and hold its Huainan Taishou Guo Bao. ”
In the account of Tang Sanshui, the deputy general of the Zhaoqing Green Battalion, the literate subordinate Qian General Lu Tycoon looked at him dryly after reading the letter for the deputy general.
"What are these things you are reading, Lao Tzu can't understand them, you speak in the vernacular and listen to me." Tang Sanshui wanted to scold his mother, but he didn't understand a word.
"Yes, yes." Lu Daheng laughed dryly and explained to Tang Sanshui, "My lord, what this passage means is that the Qin army and the Jin army are fighting, but there is a person named Zhu Xu who shouted in the ranks of the Qin army, saying that the Qin army has been defeated, but after hearing this, the Qin army thought it was defeated, turned around and ran back, and the Qin army was really defeated." ”
"Hmm, that kid wants me to do this Zhu Xu?" Tang Sanshui understood, as if he was talking to himself, and seemed to be asking Lu Tycoon.
"I'm afraid so." Lu Daheng nodded.
Tang Sanshui pursed his lips, looked at the letter in Lu Tycoon's hand, and asked, "What benefits does he give me?" ”
Lu Daheng shook his head: "I didn't say this. ”
"Didn't say that?" Tang San didn't come to one place, "With such a big deal, he won't give me any benefits?" His grandmother's, don't think I don't know that he grew big in the city of Guangzhou! ”
"My lord, I think it's because this deal is too big, so that person doesn't dare to easily promise benefits to us, but according to my humble position, that one is a happy lord, this deal is really done, and the benefits on the adult's side will definitely not be small." Lu Daheng has always traded privately with the Taiping Army, so he is very optimistic about the character of the thief Xiucai, and there is no doubt that they can't get the reward they deserve for doing things.
Tang Sanshui didn't speak, thought for a moment, and asked Lu Daheng: "Do you think this business can be done?" ”
"This" Lu Daheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Do it!" ”
Tang Sanshui sighed, got up and walked a few steps in the tent with his hands in his hands, and said very melancholy: "This official is sorry for the Qing Dynasty." (To be continued.) )
