Chapter 4: The Golden Eagle Flutters
The French Second Route Army, which had been advancing smoothly all the way, stopped advancing!
They saw thousands of people beheaded and built walls, and a bright red military flag was planted on the hill in the distance, and a golden eagle soared in the wind above the military flag, looking down!
They were frightened, and the brave soldiers could bury their heads in a trembling ninja, and the timid ones had already vomited and were frightened.
The French army began to waver, and many soldiers developed severe war weariness.
"Hurry up!"
"That's right! We're getting out of here, it's where the demons live. ”
"The Golden Eagle Banner is the Banner of the Devil, and the place where he appears is only destruction, and nothing else!"
"We have already killed more than a thousand people under the banner of the demon, and the banner of the Golden Eagle is even more cruel than the demon!"
The soldiers of the reinforced French Second Route Army and the Third Regiment had no fighting spirit, and no one was willing to pursue them anymore, and the colonel commander Isaac Barrett knew in his heart that his soldiers could no longer pursue, and the Qing soldiers on the opposite side were not here to fight, they were here to slaughter.
He led his regiment to quickly evacuate from here, returning to Chongzuo, it was better to withdraw from the land of the Qing Dynasty and return to the Nguyen Dynasty, he prayed in his heart, hoping that their general Courbet would follow his advice and withdraw to the Nguyen Dynasty, away from the territory of the demons.
The Kaizi battalion won a great victory, which was the largest victory of the Qing army since the beginning of the war, although they also killed more than 1,000 people, but they successfully eliminated a French army of 1,000 people in formation, and the loss of less than 2 to 1 was the smallest in the history of the Qing army and the foreign powers.
The Kaizi battalion also became the concentration of all the defeated Gui troops, and the soldiers in Kouzhen gradually increased. Since the First Opium War in 1840, the Qing army has never won a victory against the foreigners.
I don't know when the foreigners slowly became the demons in the hearts of the arrogant people of the Qing Empire, and they also slowly grew taller in the hearts of the people of the empire, and became the objects that could not be provoked.
In his own land, he was afraid of foreigners at his own doorstep, and took the initiative to let the guest become the master, but the master became a slave who groveled, and he was willing, and even got involved with the foreigner, and was proud to be a foreigner's dog.
This strange concept is no longer strange after a long time, it has become a natural thing, those who have the ability are those who can get involved with foreigners, they have slowly become the object of envy of people, they are also slowly taller, standing in the crowd will be arrogant, eyes are on the top of the head, and the braids are shaking in mid-air when walking.
Guangxi belongs to the border, since ancient times the economy and culture is relatively backward, in the dynasties before the Ming Dynasty, is the penal colony of many felons, literati (such as Liu Zongyuan was assigned here), criminals are forced to exile here, coupled with the harsh environment, "the people's morale is strong", the people are fierce, brave and aggressive.
Guangxi people are the type of immigrants, and the combination of northern and local genes makes Guangxi people relatively strong in environmental adaptability.
Coupled with the mountainous and hilly geographical structure of Guangxi, the law of war in which the army is like water plays a universal role in the special domain.
Near Vietnam, the ancient Chinese feudal dynasties and Vietnam wars continued, Guangxi often became the main battlefield, so that the people were fierce, and Guangxi ethnic unity, because of the strong sense of local consciousness formed by religion and clan, it was easy to form the idea of unity to resist foreign humiliation when encountering foreign invasion.
"Poof!" Li Yi burst out laughing, panting and laughing: "What the hell do you say that you Guangxi people are monkeys?" ”
"Captain, we Guangxi people are monkeys, and we are faster than monkeys to climb mountains and trees. Haven't you heard that the monkeys in Guangxi race tigers and leopards, and an iron fork beats the world. (An iron fork farmer turns over straw.) At that time, the main force of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was our 30,000 peasant soldiers in Guangxi, and we Guangxi people were not afraid of death when we fought in battle, and we did not want to die. Zuo Huichang said proudly, Zuo Huichang is a native of Chongzuo, Guangxi, and has been a soldier since he was a child, don't look at his age, but he has been in the army for more than ten years.
Zuo Huichang was proud when he talked about the brave warriors of Guangxi, but his eyes when he looked at Li Yi were also full of admiration. After the battle of Kouzhen, their stunned Guangxi people completely obeyed Li Yi, and willingly listened to Li Yi's command, Guangxi people are similar to Shandong people, if they don't obey you, they will be killed by you and won't open their mouths, if they obey you, you want a head, and even your shoulders will be given to you.
"You're fucking brave, but you're just scared of Yongwu and sent to death in vain." Li Yi thought of Wang Xuekai's ignorant and fearless command style, and his eyes were on fire.
"Hey, hey!" Zuo Huichang touched his freshly shaved head, still a little unaccustomed. Said with a smirk: "Of course, it can't be compared with adults, fortunately Wang Xuekai died, otherwise we people would have confessed here, all our brothers have not disobeyed you, you see that you said that you have to get a haircut to mess with you, this is not the first time I cut my braids." ”
Zuo Huichang saw Li Yi take out a cigarette, hurriedly asked for one, took the cigarette and sniffed it vigorously on his nose, then he was reluctant to light it, took a deep breath, and said with a look of enjoyment: "This yellow-haired ghost's cigarette is good, it saves trouble and doesn't need to roll it." ”
"Your Excellency, you have to treat us well in the future, our brothers will follow you in the future, do you know that if we lose our braids casually, we will be killed, you don't want us, we really have nowhere to go." Zuo Huichang is still a little afraid of cutting braids, this is a big crime, if Li Yi is promoted to slap his ass and leave, their gang will be miserable.
"Don't think about it, what do you want, I still don't think there are enough people, you think that's all the French army, if my expectations are right, it won't be long before the French army will attack." Li Yi spit out a string of cigarettes in his mouth, and Zuo Huichang couldn't help but feel stunned.
"My lord! If you suspect that there are few people, let me carry your banner, and shake it in the wind, and the scattered brothers from all directions have not all run over, and now we have gathered more than 1,000 people, and there is no one who is not convinced by this banner. Zuo Huichang was originally going to take a good shot on the horse's legs, but he didn't expect to almost hit the horse's legs.
Li Yi didn't care about Zuo Huichang's words, he wouldn't let Zuo Huichang carry a big banner to recruit people, now there are more than 5,000 people in the entire Kouzhen, more people are good, but relatively it also increases the supply consumption.
When they withdrew, it can be said that they escaped like throwing away their armor, except for the big knife in their hands, there was nothing else, and the consumption of five thousand people and horses was not ordinary, although this time they completely annihilated a regiment of the French army and captured some supplies, but it could not last long.
There is a bigger problem that is the quality of the soldiers, as well as training, Li Yi is not easy now, he has to serve as the highest officer here, but also as an instructor, supply officer, etc., everything here seems to be pressed on Li Yi alone, even the three meals a day in the cooking class, they will find Li Yi to apply every day.
