On both sides of the Yellow River, artillery fire and guns and bullets from both sides turned into a pot of porridge. However, due to the fact that the artillery positions of both sides would not stand on the embankment, and the range of the artillery itself was limited, even if the artillery fire of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire was slightly ahead, only a few fell on the edge of the opposite bank, and most of them hit the water near the river bank. The artillery fire of the Qing army fell more in the center of the river. As for the bullets, I don't know where they went.

So, hundreds of meters on the river, under the fierce bombardment of artillery fire from both sides, the curtain wall of water was lifted one after another, and it was like hanging a piece of pearl curtains, you can't see me, I can't see you.

On the occasion of the 10 th anniversary of the Red Army's recovery of all of China, in order to record the events that occurred during the war years in a more detailed and accurate manner, and to restore history as much as possible, the major literary institutions and journalists of the Red Celestial Empire made considerable efforts. They interviewed soldiers who came out of the smoke of the war one after another, models who followed the Red Army of the Celestial Empire all over China, and, of course, people who experienced the war like the president of the Hongguan Village Peasant Association in Ruxiang County.

"That excitement, hehe, it's really rare in a hundred years." The old president, who has worked in the Hongguan Village Peasant Association for ten years and has dealt with the land all his life, has been a pensioned citizen of the Red Celestial Empire at this time, and is living in peace in his old age. But every morning, he would always carry a dung basket on his back and walk around the familiar village, picking up horse manure and dog feces on the road, improving the sanitary environment of the village and accumulating fertilizer for the collective fields. When the literary and historical collectors from the province found him and talked about the "fierce battle" that happened in Ruxiang more than ten years ago, the old president was completely immersed in the memories of the past after saying the previous words.

"It's all said that the New Year is lively, but I haven't seen it much since I was a child. At that time, the poor man sent people to eat people, where did the New Year come from? Hmph, the old rich people naturally know how to shoot bamboo and firecrackers, but unfortunately, in the whole village, the richest people in the village back then only had a dozen acres of land at home, and they couldn't even talk about the old wealth. But as soon as the Red Army came to fight our Celestial Dynasty, that day immediately changed. When the relief food arrived, the white flowers and tinkling Tianyuan that I could never have dreamed of (the silver dollar officially circulated in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom at that time was used to being called 'Tianyuan'. Later, several island nations in the East envied the strong currency of the Red Celestial Empire and admired the affluent life of the people of the Celestial Empire, so they actually changed the center of the 361 intersections on the Go board they liked to play, that is, the position that was originally named "Taiji" by the ancients, to "Tian Yuan", and also named the winner of the game "Tian Yuan" as the highest honorary title of the final winner. In fact, to put it bluntly, it's not just for the word "money") has also been distributed to one household after another. ”

"As soon as I heard that the Red Army of the Celestial Empire was going to 'fight' the Yellow River that night, there was no need to look for it, the person who came was a sea of people. The copper and iron cannons left in various places when the Qing soldiers fled were all turned over and pushed under the embankment. As for firecrackers, they were sold out. In order to make the firecrackers more shocking, the water tanks of all families were also moved to the shore and hidden behind the embankment. The firecracker was put in the water tank, hehe, that scream, it was real, it was really more like real than real. Actually, that is, our Heavenly Army didn't plan to cross the river from here at all, if we really wanted to go over, who could stop it? From the beginning of the night, the old and young people of the villages went to the dam to walk back and forth, busy, and when they arrived, they fired guns and guns, and they have been tossing and turning the other side of the bank to the ugly time, and we removed the embankment and went back to our homes to sleep in a down-to-earth manner. It's lively, not to mention that it's more lively than the New Year, even the demons and monsters on the other side of the river, if they are not scared to death, they have to be scared to death......"

The old president's mood when he said the latter sentence is still understandable, but if he can scare Liu Mingchuan to death at once, it is still too big. The elder didn't know how bold Liu Mingchuan was.

As early as when Liu Mingchuan had not yet occupied the mountain as the king, there was such a joke about how bold Liu Mingchuan was.

It is said that one dark night when he couldn't see his fingers, Liu Mingchuan, who had no oil and water in his stomach for several days, teamed up with several ruffians in his village to rob a wealthy family in masks. Who knows, things are very unfortunate, because the rich family happened to have a distinguished guest, and brought a large group of followers with him. Liu Mingchuan and the others still ran into Mao'er, and they were beaten out of the compound, this is not the end, the bodyguards on duty chased and killed all the way in order to win the master's appreciation, that momentum, if they were not caught alive, it would be endless.

Several accomplices who were chased by the pursuers like rotten ducks had already run their own ways, and Liu Ming's single knife was running all the way. Seeing a huge and gloomy cemetery in front of him, Liu Mingchuan rushed into it without thinking about it. Liu Mingchuan, who was one foot deep and one foot shallow in the mass grave and did not choose the way to go, fell into the darkness carelessly. The bodyguards who followed closely behind were really overjoyed, and no one didn't think that this was finally a good opportunity to catch the thief.

But then, something happened that no one expected.

The pursuers, who were not at most seven or eight steps away from Liu Mingchuan, suddenly heard the thief in front of him shouting at the white miserable stone monument standing in front of a huge tomb, "Dad, quickly open the door and tell my son to go in, the people in the yang world are chasing me!" ”

This shrill cry that occurred in the gloomy cemetery suddenly threw the hot followers and bodyguards into the ice cave, and none of them were immediately creepy and scalpy. In an instant, in an exclamation, everyone turned around and ran for their lives. Mother, this is a real ghost encounter!

Liu Mingchuan stood up triumphantly, dusted off his body, touched the cold sweat on his head, and pouted in the direction of the long-disappeared pursuers, "Damn, dare to play with Lao Tzu, you *** are still a little tender." When he had finished scolding, he bent down to pick up the big knife he had thrown on the ground.

But just as his hand touched the handle of the knife, and before he could hold it, suddenly, he realized that the big knife would actually move by itself, and at the same time, a gloomy low voice sounded from the ground, "Son, you have written so many wrong words on your father's tombstone, and you don't leave this knife for your father to go and correct the typo yourself for a while?" ”

At this moment, Liu Mingchuan also had a buzzing of melon seeds in his head, and suddenly it was as big as a willow bucket, and the hairs on his body stood up. However, Liu Mingchuan is Liu Mingchuan, in a daze, he gritted his teeth, grabbed the underground big knife, and slashed wildly at the ground where the sound was made. In the midst of a terrible howl, blood splattered. It turned out that the back of the tombstone was originally a habitat for people who picked up rags for a living, and this old man was on a whim, but he just wanted to follow Liu Mingchuan's example and pretend to be a ghost, scaring Liu Mingchuan away in order to get the knife on the ground. Unexpectedly, he lost one of his lives in vain.

Just imagine, a guy who is not even afraid of ghosts, can he still be afraid of the living?

Ding Ruchang became more and more energetic, and in the end, he didn't feel that he was too happy just to carry the cannonballs, so he simply went up and played with the cannonballs. When the cannon shook and the vicious cannonball flew straight to the river, Ding Ruchang spontaneously had a kind of heroism. Tong guò "inner line", he knew that the headquarters of the coalition army would help the Qing Dynasty build the Beiyang Naval Division next year, and he also heard that the errand in this naval division was very fat, and the scenery was not beautiful to put it aside, so he said that this salary would be at least three times higher than that of the same officials on land, maybe more than that. For this reason, Ding Ruchang began to embark on a relationship early, so that he could also have his own place in the future Beiyang Naval Division.

Now, with the feeling of bombarding the river with artillery, Ding Ruchang has really found a little bit of the feeling of standing on the sea and competing for hegemony with strong enemies.

Gradually, the sound of gunfire died down. Liu Mingchuan saw that under the hard work of his heroic subordinates, the broken rafts of the "red bandits" obediently returned to where they should have been.

On the south bank, under the reflection of piles of burning fires, the originally busy figure has now become wilted, and after the last few weak cannon sounds, it simply stopped the noise that disgusted the loyal and righteous rescue soldiers. But on the north shore, at the moment, there was thunderous laughter, and in the laughter, it was naturally indispensable to use the kind of provocative dirty words used in the scolding war.

Liu Mingchuan, who was nervous and abnormally excited by the battle, was a little uncomfortable when he suddenly quieted down, and he also felt extremely tired. It's no wonder that like an immortal pine on the top of a mountain, he has always stood on a high platform, maintaining a posture similar to greatness, even if a man with iron is tired, not to mention that Liu Mingchuan is just a person, neither great nor steel?

Liu Mingchuan stepped down from the high platform and began to express his condolences and encouragement to the officers and soldiers under him, especially commending the high sense of responsibility of the Yongle Troupe. In the end, he went to the people who took the initiative to go out of the house and actively supported the army for free, and repeatedly expressed his gratitude.

Don't think that only when the Red Army Brigade of the Celestial Empire goes out to fight, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of the people will follow, and don't say that most of the people in the land of China are supporters of the Taiping Red Army. At least in Yongle, this is not the case. Most of the people of Yongle cannot be said to be hardcore defenders of the Qing Dynasty, but after all, they are resolutely and willingly wearing the same pants as Liu Mingchuan, because they have received Liu Mingchuan's "favor".

This is the difference between Liu Mingchuan and Huang Chunxi. Huang Chunxi tossed for a long time, but what he got was only a superficial article. And Liu Mingchuan is different, you don't care if Liu Mingchuan is true or not, you can get the support of so many Yongle people, that's good. This is also the fundamental reason why Liu Mingchuan is not afraid that the Red Army of the Celestial Empire will not go ashore. If the army and the people are united, that is, they are invincible. Liu Mingchuan, who is good at writing typos, good at being informal, and good at being rude, is actually much smarter than Huang Chunxi and others.

Of course, in the end, Liu Mingchuan also reminded the officers and soldiers of his battalion who continued to stay on the shore to monitor the enemy's situation, as well as the training and defense soldiers, not to be careless. Although the sky will soon be bright, although the "red bandits" have suffered heavy setbacks, although they have failed to sneak attack at night, and even more so when the day comes, they have no ability to come to invade again, but there is always no big mistake in being careful, and it is still necessary to maintain a high degree of vigilance and make persistent efforts.

After the performance, Liu Mingchuan took the reins of the horse brought by the guards, and waved his hand to many soldiers and civilians full of admiration, admiration, etc., and just kicked the stirrup and the ground with one foot, thinking that before he could pick up the other leg, the news made his head instantly bigger, so that he suddenly froze there.
