Jin Nengheng, the head of Chen Zhuping's Qichang Foreign Company, is a business maniac, and he forgot that he still has the identity of a diplomat, and panning for gold from this ancient country is his only purpose. He liked this kind of civil war that took place here, and both sides of the civil war would benefit him. However, in comparison, he prefers the "rebels". Because they are more hungry for arms, they are often able to pay more. Therefore, he can violate the ban set by his own country against selling a single shot to the "rebels".
Shi Dakai met with Chen Zhuping again, and in the face of this "old friend", Shi Dakai expressed his gratitude, and also told the other party that under the premise of absolute security, the Heavenly Army was willing to accept the arms deal appropriately. However, in order for the two sides to continue to cooperate for a long time, and for the sake of each other's interests, it is still hoped that the two sides will do some trade that is convenient for bypassing the Manchu government. He handed Chen Zhuping a purchase list and smiled, "Go back to your big class, I think he will be very happy." ”
Chen Zhuping looked at the thick stack of lists in his hand, his eyes straightened, "Wing King Chitose, this is not true, right?" ”
"How could it not be true?" Shi Da laughed happily, "Go back and calculate the price, don't be sloppy." The price paid by this king to Mr. foreign guns is at least several times that of Shanghai, because while you are taking risks, you are also helping our Heavenly Army. However, these things are normal trade between us, and Mr. Doing Business should know better than this king. Tong guò had an exchange, and Mr. also saw the integrity of this king. Again, the first is that there is no fixed money, and the second is to hurry up. Good opportunities don't always come by. ”
Chen Zhuping nodded again and again, "Chitose rest assured, there will be an explanation from above when we come, we will definitely hurry up to raise the goods, and the price is absolutely fair." ”
"That's the best, and the firm isn't just your family." Shi Dakai nodded, "Besides, we are all Han Chinese, and the Heavenly Army is fighting to expel the Qing captives, and Mr.'s merits will be remembered by future generations forever." ”
"Yes, yes," Chen Zhuping agreed, thinking for a while, "I'm afraid these things will take months to prepare, will they still come here then?" ”
Shi Dakai laughed out loud, "Sir is really forgetful, this king remembers that when we first met, he said that wherever my heavenly army occupies, I will never give up again." It's no worse than Shanghai to open a business here. ”
Chen Zhuping smiled embarrassedly, although he was not sure in his heart about what the Wing King in front of him said that he would never give up, including the people in the trading house, but he knew one thing, that is, they were all people who spoke their words. At least, from a businessman's point of view.
In mid-November 1853, the army of the Western Expedition, which had been rested and expanded, began to move again. On the right side, Hu Yihuang and Zeng Tianyang concentrated the main forces of Jiujiang and Anqing, and once again entered the city of Nanchang. On the left side, the winged king Shi Dakai personally commanded the army, which also came out by land and water, and surrounded Yuezhou.
This time Nanchang has no previous luck. The Celestial Army blasted two gaps from the north and east of the city at the same time to conquer Nanchang in one fell swoop. Then it began to sweep through Jingde, Raozhou, Fengcheng and other prefectures and counties in northern Jiangxi, and the whole Jiangxi was shocked.
Yuezhou is located in the northeast of Hunan, across the Yangtze River in the north, facing Hubei, and occupies an extremely important strategic position. If you want to stick to Hunan, you must defend Changsha and Yuezhou. Yuezhou and Changsha rely on each other, and neither can be lost. Similarly, if you want to open the gateway to Hunan, Yuezhou is not only imperative for the Heavenly Army, but also a quick battle.
At the same time that the western and northern roads began to divert the attack, the men and horses of the southern and eastern roads of the Celestial Army launched a fierce attack on the fortified city of Yuezhou.
Shi Dakai did not stop at his camp in the south of Yuezhou City, but came to the front of Shi Xiangzhen's army in the east of the city. He held up the monocular, also known as the clairvoyant. At the head of the city, the defenders of the Qing army were so suppressed by the fierce artillery fire of the heavenly army that they could not raise their heads, and they took refuge behind the battlement walls. Under the city, the infantry of the Heavenly Army of the brigade did not wait for their artillery fire to stop, they could not wait to rush to the city wall, erected more than a dozen ladders, and began to seize the city.
"Why don't you stop shelling!" Shi Dakai turned his head and yelled at Shi Xiangzhen, "Didn't you see the brothers climbing the city?" ”
Shi Xiangzhen didn't answer, just stared at the city through the binoculars.
Luo Zenan led 2,000 Xiangyong to aid Nanchang and Jiujiang last month, but failed, so he temporarily stayed in Yuezhou. This person is Zhongyue, Meiquan, and a native of Shiniuwanzhou. He lost his father when he was young, because his family was poor, he often used rosin as a lamp at night, and even borrowed fluorescent light and chaff to study. He has studied in Lianbin, Shuangfeng, Chengnan and other academies. It can be described as a full reading of the scriptures. In addition to teaching students literacy and enlightenment, they also taught them to meditate and cultivate their minds, jump high and cross ditches, and practice boxing and sticks. Lectures in the morning and exercises in the afternoon. As a result, students gathered.
In 1852, Luo Zenan, who was looking for fame in every possible way but had nowhere to seek fame, was unwilling to be a teacher of the old school, and when the Taiping Army entered Hunan, he abandoned his pen and followed Rong, pulled up some students, confidants, and villagers, founded a regimental training, and threw himself into the strangulation of the Taiping Army. is finally "meritorious in killing the enemy", and now in addition to the title of regimental training supervisor, he finally has the top of the county.
Now that he has stepped onto the battlefield, he is not afraid of fighting, and even longs for that shocking opportunity to fight. Because, without the blood and fire on the battlefield, he would not be able to realize his own dream of glorifying his ancestors. However, today's battle finally made him feel terrible.
According to his judgment of the form, he determined that both the west and north sides were long-haired false shots, and even though the south gate and the east gate seemed to be not much different from the long-haired military forces, he still concluded that their main attack direction was the south gate. There is not only the banner of the long-haired coach, but also an important place to directly cut off the connection between Changsha and Yuezhou. For this reason, he specially appointed his proud protégé Li Xubin (of course, it was not his studies that he was proud of, but the fierceness and stubbornness), Li Xuyi and the brothers supervised most of the Xiangyong to guard the south gate, and he took a battalion of Xiangyong to help defend the east gate.
As soon as the two sides fought, Luo Zenan realized that he might be wrong. He'd never seen anything like that. The head of the city was completely controlled by the enemy's dense artillery fire, and the officers and soldiers who beat themselves could not even stand on their feet. And a large number of long hairs under the city are actually rushing upwards against their own artillery fire. He saw with his own eyes that from time to time shells would fall on the heads of his own people, but the fire continued. Crazy, just crazy!
However, he also found that his opponent had the effect of doing so, and that was that someone would soon jump on the top of the city. His eyes were red, and he desperately wanted to organize people to stop the climbers, but how could anyone want to do it with him?
The artillery fire finally stopped, and as a few things he didn't know what to call were thrown along the wall, under the battlement, the soldiers who were still desperately holding down their bodies and trying to dodge the long-haired artillery fire flew in the roar. On the battlement, the first long-haired figure he saw appeared in an instant.
Luo Zenan woke up from the stun of the explosion, screamed, and pounced with a knife. Facing the still childish face on the other side, there was a trace of pity in his heart while he tried his best to cut down the knife. So small!
Unfortunately, things didn't work out as planned. Luo Zenan's knife was cut into the air, and the "doll" of the Heavenly Army flashed smartly, quickly took off the waist knife in his mouth, stabbed him into his lower abdomen, and then kicked him over, and no longer looked at it, and rushed towards the next opponent
His proud disciples Li Xubin, Li Xuyi, Wang Xin, Jiang Yili, Liu Penghong, etc., later all became famous generals of the Hunan Army who suppressed the prince's army.
In the first year of Xianfeng (1851), Luo Zenan was filial piety and honesty by epiphytics. The following year, the Taiping Army entered Hunan, and Luo Zenan initiated a regimental training in the township.
