Zhang Zongyu was excited, and Lai Wenguang was also excited, this is two thousand rifles, and there are twenty heavy artillery pieces behind, with such a strong force, coupled with the powerful Xinxiangfu city wall, and fifty or sixty thousand elite troops, even if the elite division of Baoding Town is strong, there is no need to be afraid.

Lai Wenguang was holding a rifle in his hand, and he couldn't put it down, if as early as two years ago, the Twist Army and the Taiping Army could have these weapons, then they could have invaded the Gyeonggi area, what is Monk Greenqin? Vulnerable! Guo Ye was still in exile in the United States at that time, and no one in the entire Central Plains would be his opponent, but unfortunately, it was only now that he got this batch of firearms with the help of the Wing King......

Zhang Zongyu's eyes flashed, and shouted: "King Zun, now we have two thousand rifles, twenty heavy artillery, can completely confront Baoding Town head-on, the power of the other party's firearms can no longer cause a huge deterrent to us, we completely rely on this batch of firearms to confront them head-on without falling behind, when the time comes, we will use firearms to contain the strength of Baoding Town, with cavalry to assault the opponent's flank, Qi Zheng is used together, Baoding Town is caught off guard, absolutely a battle and ink!" ”

Lai Wenguang didn't speak, Zhang Zongyu's idea was too simple, if firearms really had that much power, the Taiping army would have been wiped out by the Qing army a long time ago, at the beginning of the war, the Taiping army did not have any firearms, not even earth cannons, didn't beat the Qing army to the ground?

"King Zun, now we don't have to be trapped in Xinxiang, taking the initiative is the king, as long as we defeat the elite of Baoding Town, we can go north to attack the capital again, without Baoding Town blocking the way, the capital can fight down, and the day of the fall of the Qing demon is not far away!"

Lai Wenguang frowned and replied: "Zong Yu, don't be too excited, even if we have these firearms, we are still far behind Baoding Town in terms of quantity, and Baoding Town is the strongest team in China, one-on-one competition, even if they don't use artillery, we are not their opponents, now we have foreign guns and foreign artillery, it is just to enhance a certain degree of confidence, or there is no certainty of victory, why take this risk?" As long as they waited for them to come and attack Xinxiang and destroy their supply lines, the Qing army would naturally retreat without a fight! ”

Zhang Zongyu hurriedly said: "King Zun, if we still have to defend Xinxiang at this time, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow to the morale of our brothers, now the news has spread, morale has risen, and King Wo is dead, the great enemy is in his body, it is the time when the military heart is available, miss this opportunity, we have no place to regret going!" ”

Lai Wenguang is still a little hesitant, attacking, that means leaving Xinxiang to go north, once going north, then the current geographical advantage will be gone, go to Hebi or Anyang, your own military food still needs to be transported from the rear, what should I do? ”

"King Zun, if you are cowardly and afraid that the Wing King will be blamed in the future, then I will act alone, and the 30,000 twist army is enough to compete with Baoding Town!"

Zhang Zongyu is really angry, at this juncture, Lai Wenguang is always pulling his hind legs, where can he do it?

Lai Wenguang saw that Zhang Zongyu was already anxious, and had to make concessions, after all, the Twist Army is not the Taiping Army, the two are just an alliance, the Twist Army temporarily accepts the leadership of the Taiping Army, but in fact it still maintains a strong independence, if the contradiction is made public, it will be even more unfavorable for the next big war.

"Okay, Zong Yu, we can fight, but how to deploy, you must listen to me, now you are carried away by hatred, you are reckless, and if you are not careful, it will bring us a catastrophe!"

Lai Wenguang said helplessly.

Zhang Zongyu was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Of course I have to listen to you, you are the supreme commander of our Northern Taiping Army and the Twist Army!" I'm from for you! ”

Lai Wenguang nodded and replied: "Since this is the case, then give an order, and send troops to Hebi in two days!" However, we can't march too quickly, we need to stabilize the situation, we can only choose to fight with the Qing Demon in Hebi, and we must not go deep into Anyang, where is closer to the Qing Demon's lair, their baggage transportation is more convenient, it is not good for me, as long as they break away from Anyang and go south to the Hebi area, then their transportation line will be opened for two or three hundred miles, and it is easier to expose flaws! ”

Zhang Zongyu nodded and replied: "Well, what the king said makes sense, it is a fool's thing to do it, now that the Qing army has entered the Anyang area, I think it will not take a few days to enter Hebi, and then we will fight with the Qing army in Hebi and fight to the death!" ”

In fact, Zhang Zongyu was carried away by 2,000 rifles and 20 artillery, not to mention 2,000 rifles, even if it is 5,000 rifles, in the hands of the Twist Army and the Taiping Army, it is only similar to the burning stick, tens of thousands of troops, how many people can shoot, not to mention hitting the enemy, if you can not hit your own people, you will burn high incense, and also, which of these generals of the Twist Army and the Taiping Army knows how to fight with hot weapons? With such a single soldier quality and such command ability, if you want to compete with the elite of Baoding Town, you are dreaming in a hundred days.

However, Zhang Zongyu's plan is true, the Twist Army and the Taiping Army were inspired by this large number of firearms, and the Twist Army all wanted to avenge the revenge with Lufeng Mountain in Baoding.

Two days later, Zhang Zongyu and Lai Wenguang left a part of their troops to stick to Xinxiang and led most of the main force towards Hebi.

Zhang Zongyu and Lai Wenguang led their troops to the north, at this time He Qimou and Gao Qi also began to lead the army of Baoding Town to the south, and now the strength of Baoding Town has reached 10,000 people, although compared with the Twist Army and the Taiping Army, there is still a huge gap, but, relying on the strong combat power, the two people are not afraid at all, isn't it necessary to transfer baggage from the territory of Zhili Shandong? Now it's different, this time it's Guo Ye who personally commands the troops, the dignified Yasukuni Gong, the Minister of Military Aircraft, the Governor of Liangjiang, and the Minister of the General Office for Suppressing Bandits, who want to raise military rations on the spot, that is a matter of one sentence, and Ke Yunlu is completely different from each other, local officials can not take Ke Yunlu seriously, but if they dare to take Guo Ye seriously, there will only be one end, and they will die a miserable death!

He Qimou and Gao Qi have already issued an order to collect military rations to Handan and Liaocheng, which is covered with Guo Ye's big seal, no one dares to disobey the order, the baggage in the rear is constantly being transported over, as long as the grain and grass are safe, then Baoding Town and the training army will be completely invincible!

The two armies marched in the opposite direction, no more than six hundred miles apart, and in less than ten days, they would meet, and a great battle had slowly begun.
