Chapter 122: Monk Greenqin

Xianfeng's will had just been issued, and before he had time to retreat from the dynasty, the second copy of Monk Lingqin's recital was delivered.

Xianfeng opened it and asked for the entire firearms battalion to be mobilized to participate in the battle and fight to the death with the British and French forces in the area of Bali Bridge!

Xianfeng's nose is almost crooked, I'll your grandma! Monk Greenqin, you have been defeated and humiliated, Lao Tzu has not settled accounts with you, and you dare to think that Lao Tzu wants a firearms battalion? , The current firearms battalion is the lifeblood of Lao Tzu, the last guarantee, without the firearms battalion, what should Lao Tzu do?

Xianfeng was furious, threw the song to the ground, and roared angrily: "Damn monk Lingqin, he actually wants to transfer the entire firearms battalion, is he crazy?" Someone came to issue a decree to admit the title of Prince Horqin of Monk Greenqin and demote him to the son of Horqin! If you can't repel the foreigners, you will be punished together! ”

Prince Gong on the side hurriedly picked up the fold, and said urgently: "Your Majesty, now is the time when the court is in emergency, only the monk king can rely on the Manchu Dynasty, you are so harsh, I am afraid that it will cause a mutation, when the time comes, we are more passive, now we can only comfort, it is not appropriate to condemn ah, also, the war ahead is urgent, the monk lacks artillery and foreign guns, in the face of the foreigners rushing into battle, very passive, if there is no firearms battalion to help, I am afraid that the monk will not be able to return to the sky." ”

Xianfeng shouted: "Bastard, is the war important, but my safety is not important?" Isn't the safety of the capital important? Give him the entire firearms battalion, so what defense does the capital rely on? ”

Prince Gong's face turned pale, and he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, you can allocate four of the signal troops to the monk king, and the artillery battalion can also be called to the monk king, leaving the other four Xun can be transferred to the emperor's side, so as to plan for the ......."

Xianfeng snorted angrily, calmed down a little, and shouted: "Okay, I ordered to reprimand Seng Lingqin for his ineffective fighting, and asked him to repel the British and French forces incomparably, if he is defeated again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" There is also an artillery battalion that can be given to him, the firearms battalion, can only give him two messages, at the beginning, I also allocated thousands of rifles to him, and the number of rifles has even exceeded that of the firearms battalion, but the result is still a big defeat, look at that Guo Ye, he is only more than 2,000 people, and he has defeated Tsarist Russia, and he has lost one! ”

Originally, Seng Lingqin was still counting on being able to have two firearms to save his life, but now he only got a dozen Western artillery pieces from the firearms battalion, and then there are two firearms battalions, two hundred people, what is enough for such a force?

At this time, Monk Greenqin had already run out of Tianjin, and Shengbao led the Beijing camp, the green battalion soldiers and the Mongolian elite cavalry, more than 18,000 people, retreated towards the Gyeonggi area, at the same time, Monk Greenqin urgently transferred Shandong Rehe and the Qing army in Zhili to quickly move closer to Tongxian and participate in the battle of Bali Bridge!

Now Seng Lingqin has obtained the strength of the Anglo-French coalition army, 5,000 French Army, 8,000 British Army, this is only the forward force, and there will be more than 10,000 troops of the Anglo-French coalition army in the follow-up to arrive in Tianjin Wei one after another!

The current 13,000 troops, plus the number of troops that have been sent to the end, will be close to 30,000 troops, which are all elite troops of foreigners, all equipped with advanced muskets and cannons!

Monk Greenqin A chill rose directly from the soles of his feet to the brain shell, I Di Niang, only a few thousand foreigners, it is enough for me to stand it, I was defeated by others, and now I want to gather 30,000 troops, so is there still a way for the Qing army to live, at least at the moment, such a small number of troops, it is definitely not enough to block the eyes of others!

Monk Greenqin quickly ordered to recruit troops from all over the country to go to Beijing to participate in the war!

At this time, Xianfeng's holy decree and Yi? The letter was sent to the army almost at the same time, and after receiving the holy decree, Monk Lingqin lost his temper even more, is this still a fart? Damn! Who is the slander of the emperor who advances? Without the firearms battalion participating in the battle, the certainty of victory by oneself is even more slim!

Without an elite firearms battalion, there is not even a fist unit of its own! Yes, yes, I still have thousands of guns under my command, but these thousand guns have just been installed in the troops, from the completion of the installation to the present, it has been less than a month, and it has only been trained for half a month.

Monk Greenqin wants to cry without tears, and now the British and French coalition forces have not yet reached Beijing, you say that you are a dignified son of heaven, and you ran to Rehe with your tail between your legs first, so who will give you your life to fight the world?

Sheng Bao on the side said astringently: "Lord Wang, look, what should we do now?" ”

Monk Lingqin said angrily: "What should I do? How does Lao Tzu know what to do? What else can I do? Withdraw the troops, speed up the withdrawal of the troops, arrive at the Bali Bridge as soon as possible, in the Bali Bridge, we will fight to the death with the British and French coalition forces, even if the whole army is annihilated, we must fight this battle, Xu Sheng is not allowed to lose, you know, the back is Beijing City, we have no room for anything, once we lose, Beijing falls, that is death is not enough to atone! ”

Shengbao shrank his neck, Monk Greenqin was right, behind is Beijing City, the Qing army has no way to retreat, where can it retreat again?

Monk Lingqin continued: "Now we can only rely on our cavalry, the emperor only gave us a firearms battalion of two hundred people, what is this enough for?" Even if we were given an entire artillery battalion, it would be less than twenty guns, and in front of the artillery group of the Anglo-French army, we were not worth mentioning at all. Only the cavalry can withstand a battle, we went to Zhangjiawan to deploy there, you led the Beijing battalion to defend the left wing, Lord Ruilin led the Beijing battalion to defend the right wing, I commanded the Horqin cavalry to sit directly in the Chinese army, once the war started, you came to attract the main force of the foreigners, my cavalry quickly launched an attack on the British and French forces, hoping that it was possible to attack the positions of the foreigners with a surprise attack, at that time, the combat power of the cavalry could be fully exerted, and our fate all depended on that moment! ”

Shengbao nodded, there are still 8,000 cavalry under Seng Greenqin, although there are some good and bad, but the combat power of the main force is still not to be underestimated, as long as it can charge the position of the British and French forces, at close range, the power of the musket cannot be exerted, and the foreigners will definitely not be able to withstand the impact of the cavalry.

Monk Greenqinku sighed: "To tell the truth, the old man is not sure at all, I just hope that Guo Ye's kid can lead his main force in Baoding Town to kill back, maybe she has the power to return to heaven, we?" I don't have that ability......"

Guo Ye? Now Guo Ye is about to vomit blood, more than 2,000 miles away, only half a month to run to Shanhaiguan, from Shanhaiguan to Tongxian, there are only 500 miles away, but all the soldiers are already a little unable to hold on, exhausted to the extreme!
