"My lord, my lord......" With a shout, Ding Ruchang, who was marked as the guard camp manager, turned pale and ran in in a panic. Because he patronized and looked at the face of Lord Biaotong, he didn't have time to take care of the soles of his feet, first with a "plop", and then with a "bang", he stepped on the copper basin soaked in Liu Mingchuan's feet, and the copper basin was overturned, and the water flowed to the ground.

"Panic what!" Liu Mingchuan stood up and slapped his hand on the table hard, "Grab the coffin board!" After scolding, he suddenly realized that he was standing barefoot on the ground, and quickly sat back, brushing the dust on his face, and glanced at the guy who ran in with Ding Ruchang, and asked sharply, "What's the matter?" ”

While asking, listening to the continuous explosions, Liu Mingchuan suddenly flashed such a thought in his mind, could it be that the powder magazine was ignited by some careless bastard? Otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a big movement?

"Big ...... My lord, the Taiping Army is ...... is crossing the river...... "Lian Yong, who was out of breath all the way, shouted with a pair of frightened eyes.

"What? Hahaha......" Liu Mingchuan was startled at first, and then laughed extremely easily. Yes, if his powder magazine exploded, then he would really have to die in a hurry, but now that the Taiping Army is about to hit the door, it is really *** There is no cotton sinking in his body, and he doesn't know how to get better.

He picked up the sock from the table and sniffed it under his nose as if no one was around, as if no one else was around. Probably feeling something bad, he frowned slightly, and casually threw his socks on the table.

Ding Ruchang, who had not yet calmed down, but was even more confused by the smile of Lord Biaotong, glanced at Lord Biaotong with confused eyes, and still involuntarily hurried to the head of the bed, skillfully took out a pair of clean socks from a box, and held them to the adult with both hands.

"Lord Liu......" Liu Yuehui also ran in sweat at this time, as soon as he saw Ding Ruchang in the room and Lian Yong who reported the news, he coughed and forced his composure, "Lord Liu, the Taiping army is trying to force the Yellow River, if you don't hurry up and send people and horses, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the regimental training and defense troops in front to resist?" ”

"How many men are crossing the river?" Liu Mingchuan unhurriedly put socks on his feet and asked without raising his head.

"There are thousands of people, and the embankments and ferries are densely packed with Taiping troops, and your lordship, their artillery fire is very fierce." Liu Yuehui saw this with clairvoyance while standing on the wall of the fortress, and the south wall of the fortress was built only two miles away from the Yongle Ferry, so he could see the opposite bank very clearly.

"Lord Liu, what the official is asking is how many red bandits are on the river?" Liu Mingchuan bent down to put on his boots, but he still didn't look at Liu Yuehui, but there was already great dissatisfaction in his voice.

"Multi-...... That's a lot...... My lord...... It's all densely pressed......" Lian Yong, who reported the incident, called out inopportunely.

"Fuck you!" Liu Mingchuan was really angry, and in his anger, he forgot about the fake Swen, grabbed the stinky socks on the table, and smashed his head at the disgusting face of Lian Yong, who reported the incident, "There are thousands of red bandits on the shore, densely packed, can there be so many red bandits on the river?" You've got *** eyes on your ass, right? ”

Don't look at Liu Mingchuan's vulgar words, but when Liu Yuehui heard it, he really couldn't help but secretly admire the scheming of this dirty man. Alas, everyone says that if you don't go out, you know the world, but in fact, vulgar people also have their own shrewdness. At least at this time, Liu Yuehui already felt a little calm led by Liu Mingchuan, "My lord, there are dozens of warships on the river, they ...... They were indeed going to cross the river. ”

"It's not a warship, it's a ferry, to be exact." Liu Mingchuan was draped, and smiled at Liu Yuehui rarely, "The sound of artillery is not small, but there is also our artillery fire here." The artillery team doesn't have to be ordered by their own officer, and they know what to do. Don't worry, don't say that the red bandits can't go ashore, even if they go ashore, they can't break the iron lock of Yongle! ”

Liu Mingchuan tied the wide cowhide belt made by the Russian allies, and then played the short gun that was also the "support" of the Russian ally in his hand a few times, and then, dashingly, he thrust it into his waist, looked at Liu Yuehui at the same time, and pouted his mouth, "Lao Tzu made great efforts, sweated profusely, and spent more than half a year to build the Yongle Fortress, but it is not for playing." Ding Ruchang! ”

As soon as he heard the call of Lord Biaotong, Ding Ruchang hurriedly straightened up.

"Order the first battalion to rush to the ferry immediately." After speaking, Liu Mingchuan turned his head and waved at Liu Yuehui again, "The second and third battalions are on standby, and I will take the guard battalion to the ferry." I'd like to take a good look at how the red bandits put on their wings and flew across the Yellow River. ”

Yongle Ferry, gunsmoke, guns and cannons, flickering fire, like the night of Chinese New Year's Eve. Under the intensive and vigorous artillery bombardment of the favorable topography of the ferry and the embankment, on the wide surface of the Yellow River, the forced ferries of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire, although the sound of killing was earth-shattering, could only return again and again in vain.

On the Yongle side, the Qing army, which had gained momentum, was even more joyful and thunderous, and its morale was high. The drums of war rumbled, and although the guns and bullets could not reach the ships of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire that had retreated, the artillery fire became more and more energetic and more and more interested.

Standing in the firing area of the artillery team, Liu Mingchuan expressed great appreciation for the rapid reaction ability of the officers and men under his command, especially the artillery unit.

Ding Ruchang was imitating the previous practice of Lord Biaotong, and took the lead in leading some officers and soldiers of the guard battalion to help the artillery team deliver shells to the fiery cannon chamber, "Hit, hit hard!" From time to time, his mouth was filled with gnashing of teeth.

Now, let's talk about this Ding Ruchang. Ding Ruchang, who was the same age as Liu Mingchuan and was born in Shizuitou Village, Lujiangbei Township, Anhui Province, dropped out of school at the age of ten because of his poor family background, and only studied in a private school for three years. At the age of 14, Ding Ruchang's parents both died of hunger and illness in the drought, and he could only rely on the help of neighbors, relatives and friends to survive. When he was eighteen years old, that is, in 1854, the Taiping army conquered the Lujiang River, and the destitute and desperate Ding Ruchang joined the Taiping army "angrily" in order to save his belly.

But only two years later, when he was stationed in Luzhou with the army, it was just in time for Wei Changhui to betray the Celestial Empire and leave Luzhou without permission. Ding Ruchang, who had eaten enough for two years and began to complain about the almost strict military discipline of the Celestial Army, was instigated by Cheng Xueqi, who was as forced to defect to the Celestial Army as he was, in order to improve his belly again, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Celestial Army falling into the vicious war in Luzhou, the two guys who had milk were mothers went out of Luzhou with dozens of scum and threw themselves into the arms of Shengbao.

Who knows, originally under the temptation of Cheng Xueqi's ** soup, I thought that there would be a prosperous and wealthy Ding Ruchang and others under the big tree of Shengbao, not to mention that they were half-officials, but they didn't even get a good face from Shengbao. Especially when Miao Peilin betrayed the Qing Dynasty and surrendered to the Celestial Empire, and the army of Shengbao was defeated, if it wasn't for someone to stop him, Shengbao almost killed their dogs.

The gray Ding Ruchang regretted it at that time, if it weren't for the fear that he would be asked about a capital crime if he returned to the arms of the Heavenly Army, he would definitely have to turn around and run back to Luzhou again. Ding Ruchang, who was helpless, could only continue to follow Cheng Xueqi to escape from the frontal battlefield, and hurriedly escaped all the way to Henan, and then escaped the Yellow River. In the end, with the gold, silver and jewelry obtained by robbing the rich along the way, he bought the relationship and took the boat of Li Hongzhang.

Li Hongzhang, who is trying to expand his power by saving ** with loyalty and righteousness, is very concerned about how many Anhui villagers can know Braille. In the recruitment examination for the open recruitment of promising officers in the Loyalty, Righteousness and Salvation, first the written test revealed the exam questions, and then the interview for personal fraud, just a struggle for the temporary comfort of the belly, Ding Ruchang, who has never had great ambitions, actually became an outstanding young man in Anhui Province all of a sudden. In order to gild Ding Ruchang, Li Hongzhang looked at the face of the silver, and specially arranged for Ding Ruchang to serve by the side of the Russian advisers for several months. Not to mention, after a few months, Ding Ruchang worked diligently and diligently, and he could easily speak crooked Russian.

Russian advisers were happy, and naturally many were happy. The common people know that it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and Ding Ruchang is naturally worth it. When one is released, a pipe belt marked as belonging to the guard battalion is released, which is really a step to the sky. So much so that people who are familiar with him say that this Ding Ruchang is really *** enough, and he can't forget to shout that Grandpa Tsar is good in his sleep! Master Lee is his reborn parent!
