Not to mention that when Xingtai was bombarded by stormy and dense artillery fire, and the city gates began to open their hearts to the fearless Red Army soldiers of the Celestial Empire, Ruilin finally chose to convince himself and willingly became a prisoner of the Red Army again. By the time Wei Jun's army arrived on the outskirts of Xingtai, Lai Yuxin's Red 24th Army had already swept through the already panicked counties of Jize, Nanhe, Pingxiang, Renxian, and Julu in the east, and then surpassed Wei Jun's troops and connected Tangshan (not Tangshan in Jingdong) and Longping in the north of Xingtai.

Outside Longping City, a three-way road leading to Gaoyi in the northwest and Ningjin in the northeast, under the scorching sun, the dust was flying, and a huge iron stream of the Red Army from south to north was divided into two branches here, rolling forward.

"Brother, as long as Xingtai fights smoothly, we will meet in the city in a few days." On the two roaring war horses, Lai Yuxin and his deputy commander Chen Kunshu clasped their fists, saluted, and said goodbye to each other. From then on, the Red 24th Army had to be divided into two divisions, all the way through Gaoyi and Yuanshi, and took Zhaoxian and Luancheng to threaten Zhengding. On the other hand, I have to go to Ningjin, go down to Shulu, Jinzhou, Wuji, and win new music.

"Don't worry, Commander, with Shi Zhenlun and their right flank tossing Jizhou, Hengshui, and Shenzhou, my opponent won't make me much trouble, it's just that I just have to run more." Chen Kunshu smiled heartily, and with his mount, he blended into the team that was surging forward like a tide.

Chen Kunshu was right, after Shi Zhenlun's Red 26th Army took Nangong lightly at this time, the main force had already gathered in Jizhou.

"Lao Shi, you are watching here, and I will take Jizhou within an hour." In the rumbling sweeping artillery fire that sounded for the breakthrough of the city, Deputy Army Commander Zhu Yi pulled the military hat he was wearing on his head, and was rolling his arms and sleeves.

When he saw Shi Zhenlun, who was engrossed in observing the situation in the city with a telescope, nodded, Zhu Yi pulled out the short gun in his waist and waved at a group of trumpeters who had already lined up, "Blow it on me until I enter the city!" ”

The sound of dozens of military horns playing at the same time soared into the sky.

"For the sake of the Celestial Empire, forward!" In the shouting, like a rapidly rolling cloud of smoke, Zhu Yidian, a horse team composed of him and a dozen guards, arrived behind the siege assault team in an instant.

"For the sake of the Celestial Empire, forward!" The warriors of the assault team shouted like thunder, without the slightest hesitation or cowering, and pounced on the city wall that had been destroyed by artillery fire......

Contrary to the scene of the fierce and earth-shattering battle in the west, there was such a dramatic scene in the river hundreds of miles away.

Under the city of Hejian Prefecture, on the temporarily constructed position, the officers and men of the Red Army were seizing the time to rest. At the head of the city, the panicked green battalion soldiers and regimental trainers were worried and crowded together in groups of three or five. Although everyone was looking out with their necks stretched out, they were as silent as the Red Army soldiers below. They didn't know, and certainly didn't expect, when the men below would begin to siege the city. And what they didn't understand even more was that in the fields and official roads in the distance, why did those brigades of men and horses with neither the head nor the tail in sight roll forward with a bang, but they didn't seem to bother to look at them?

"What are they doing here? Scare people to play? A bearded, naïve-looking soldier Yong's eyes were straightened by this face, and he didn't know when, the spear in his hand also stretched out of the battlement, and his mouth was muttering stupidly.

"If you don't get beaten, won't your skin be tight?" Maybe it was Bing Yong's self-talk just now that he was too loud, and the officer who was also "sneaking" along the battlement to look outside at the moment was actually shocked by him, and angrily raised his leg and kicked the bearded Bing Yong's ass hard, "Shut up your stinky mouth for me, put away your broken spear, if you look like this, it's strange if they don't rush up and beat you up a gray grandson." ”

The bearded soldier was so frightened that he shook his whole body when he was coldly kicked, and the spear came out of his hand.

The iron spear fell straight down the city, and then there was the sound of hitting the ground. "When the ...... is long", this sound is extremely brittle and loud at this time.

With the sound, on the position outside the city, which was only a hundred steps away from the city gate, in the seemingly calm and uninhabited trench, rows of human heads suddenly appeared. "Looking for death, don't stay honestly and toss around, Lao Tzu will go up and break your neck." A loud Red Army soldier angrily tore off his hat and slammed it on the edge of the ditch, opening his throat to the city and reprimanding him.

At the head of the city, the officer who was frightened into a cold sweat, his face was pale, and he was regretting his untimely kick just now, when he heard that it was only this kind of evil reprimand from below, he couldn't help but rub his heart, wiped the sweat all over his face, let out a long breath, and smiled strangely outside. What a mystery! He understands that those uncles outside the city can't afford to mess with. Yesterday morning, too, from the south to the north, a team of horses rushed up, and the momentum of the large group of men and horses passing by as if no one was passing by the city annoyed the prefect in the city. The prefect who didn't know each other actually asked the green battalion soldiers and regimental trainers in the city to open the city and sneak attack people. Who knows, those soldiers and practitioners who were finally summoned up for a while to rush out of the brave were beaten by the Taiping Horse Team who came over on one side in an instant, only hating their grandmother for giving birth to two legs for themselves, and fled back crying and crying.

Subsequently, the leader of the Taiping Red Army, who was very angry, sent a letter to the city, "...... The Heavenly Army is only to borrow the road to the north, hoping that the soldiers in the city will behave for themselves and not make trouble for themselves......" Although the words in the letter were not intense, they were shocking to the officers and soldiers in the city. For this reason, Adjutant General Gou, the highest military commander stationed in the city, went down with a few fists, and beat the prefect who had made fun of his own losses and soldiers to the point that he was suddenly bedridden.

"It's a good day, but you have to toss around to be comfortable?" Naturally, Vice General Gou's "no toss" has become a wise saying in the minds of the officers and soldiers in Hejian.

"Yucheng, this marching strategy of yours is indeed clever. In fact, the power of 50,000 elite Tsarist Russia can be eaten by our Heavenly Army in one bite, and these Manchu soldiers and horses directly subordinate to various places are just deaf ears, ornaments, or frightened rabbits, and they will not form a great combat effectiveness at all. But they are shrinking into the city, and if our army insists on taking these cities, it will be much more troublesome. ”

Looking at the quiet Hejian Mansion City in the distance, Zuo Zongtang sighed with emotion from the bottom of his heart.

Under the scorching sun, Zuo Zongtang and Chen Yucheng walked side by side in the northward torrent, sweating profusely. Chen Yucheng was carrying a horse pistol on his shoulder, and although Zuo Zongtang was still holding a fan in his hand, he had been lazy to fan. Behind them, on the back of Chen Yucheng's white dragon horse, sat a Red Army soldier with a sprained foot. Zuo Zongtang's big black horse carried several ammunition boxes.

"Yes, compared with them, we not only have a great strategic initiative, but also have a huge advantage in strength and momentum. We must give full play to this advantage. Chen Yucheng changed the pistol he was carrying.

"Hehe, in fact, when I first heard about your arrangement, I was still a little worried." Zuo Zongtang looked at Chen Yucheng with a smile, "I'm really afraid that you are too presumptuous, only trying to make a quick word, and neglecting more things." ”

"Hehe......" Chen Yucheng also smiled, "Actually, at the beginning, I was just trying to be fast." Around this quick word, I racked my brains, and of course, I was also inspired by Tan Shaoguang and Chen Tingxiang. ”

However, the further the march continues, the greater the difficulties encountered by the soldiers. As the saying goes, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion. We must maintain the current vigor of the soldiers, otherwise, even if we get close to Beijing, we will become a tired army that will not survive a war. ”

"It's a hero, it's a hero, throw off your feet and look at it. Our Red Army is a steel man, not afraid of hardships and difficulties, Dingjiangnan, sweeping Jiangbei, smiling and proud of the Central Plains into Hebei, turning over the river and the sea I am the first, and the Red Army's reputation ......spreads all over the world."

What followed Zuo Zongtang's words was a burst of crisp and loud agitation trumpets that suddenly came from the front.

"Oh my God, when did they get ahead of us again?" Zuo Zongtang stopped and looked up, and couldn't help but have a flash of surprise on his face.

Ahead, on the side of the dusty road, the men and women of the Xingying Art Troupe spread out in groups of five or six, beating the small drums in their hands, and began to sing their own trumpets to the soldiers who passed by over and over again. And among the people closest to Zuo Zongtang and Chen Yucheng, the person who is the leader is actually Liu Xianghe.

"Well, they must have stopped when we stopped for a nap." Chen Yucheng swept the pistol on his shoulder and quickened his pace.

"What a good couple made in heaven!" Zuo Zongtang hurried two steps and caught up with Chen Yucheng.

"Hehe, Chief of Staff Zuo, Yucheng, you have worked hard!" As soon as they arrived at Liu Xianghe's side, Chen Yucheng and Zuo Zongtang hurriedly walked out of the queue, and before Chen Yucheng in front of them had time to open his mouth to speak, Liu Xianghe rushed to greet them with high spirits.

"I said, sister-in-law, you can't do that! After all, this man is not iron, he always needs to eat and rest, but you don't care about it so much, if you are tired, how can we explain it to Your Highness? Looking at Liu Xianghe, who was pretending to be very relaxed in front of him, Chen Yucheng shook his head and persuaded Liu Xianghe uneasily.

"Nonsense, I'm not made of mud, everyone can do things, why can I get tired as soon as I do it?" Liu Xianghe said with a deliberate face, snorted a little angrily, and whispered to Zuo Zongtang, "Chief of Staff Zuo, you have to testify for me, this villain Chen Yucheng is obviously scolding people in a different way, and he can't stand the wind and rain." When I saw Beijing, how could I tell you well in front of Your Highness. ”

"Haha, hehe, oh madam, Zuo's certificate can't be done." Zuo Zongtang shook his hand again and again while laughing, "Besides, madam, if you don't follow the marching schedule of the camp, it is a violation first, and it seems that there is still a suspicion of not taking me, the chief of staff of the camp, in his eyes." ”

"Forget it, this is really true, Xiucai met Bing, no matter how reasonable you are, you can't tell. You better hurry up and follow your path, don't affect our affairs, our brothers in the Heavenly Army are still waiting to listen to our rap. Besides, once you're at war, haven't we been resting all the time? Liu Xianghe pursed his mouth, pretended to be very impatient, and waved his hand again and again to drive Zuo Zongtang and Chen Yucheng away.

Chen Yucheng looked at Zuo Zongtang helplessly, and after a long sigh, he raised his hand and gave Liu Xianghe a military salute, "Sister-in-law, take care, the road is still far away." ”

"Don't worry, you have to take care too!" Liu Xianghe smiled happily.

Just as Chen Yucheng and Zuo Zongtang turned around and joined the rolling torrent, Liu Xianghe's sweet and crisp singing voice sounded on the side of the road, "Forward!" Forward! Forward! Our team is facing the sun, stepping on the land of the motherland, carrying the expectations of the people, we are an invincible force......"

Like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, the impassioned and majestic battle song of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire resounded across the field, "We are the children of workers and peasants, and we are the people's armed forces." Never fearless, never give in, fight valiantly, until the reactionaries are wiped out, and the banner of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is flying high......"

"Our army can't be dragged down or defeated!"

Zuo Zongtang found the answer he wanted to know from the singing, from the face of Chen Yucheng, who didn't say a word with the corners of his mouth tightened and just shook off the strides, and from the rumbling footsteps of thousands of pairs of firmer, bigger, and faster steps.
