In the ancient city of Nanjing at sunset, thousands of houses are burning, smoke is already billowing under the Purple Mountain, the flames are soaring to the sky, and there are scenes of looting, raping and massacring Han people everywhere, and miserable cries are resounding! 20,000 cavalry of the Manchu Qing River Defense Battalion, under the leadership of the Shengjing general Shaoying, entered the city of Nanjing, and thousands of unarmed civilians fled in all directions with the old and the young.

Shao Ying was a fierce general with a yellow flag in Manchuria, only thirty years old at this time, Prince Gong gave a death order, let him lead 60,000 banner troops to capture Nanjing, so that Emperor Zaitao could move from Xi'an to Nanjing. Prince Gong also mobilized 40,000 Qing troops from all over the country to support, a total of 100,000 troops, to attack Nanjing, and Liu Kun, the governor of Liangjiang, led his troops to hold on for fifteen days, the city was broken, and retreated to Anhui and Jiangxi.

Song Xiaofei led 10,000 new troops to camp in Sanli outside Nanjing, and arms and ammunition were successively transported from Tianjin and other places, and reinforcements from the Huai army were also assembled in Nanjing.

It was already early winter, and a thin layer of ice had formed in some places on the river. Song Xiaofei's 10,000 new army, most of them are elites who have been trained by the Beiyang Military Academy, cavalry, artillery, and infantry are led by Wang Shizhen, Duan Qirui, and Feng Guozhang respectively. Henry's rifles and artillery are armed with Krupp heavy guns, and the uniforms are neat, all of which are imitations of the German army uniforms. In addition to the advanced equipment, it has been reborn ideologically, and it is completely different from the old-style army, and the name has also been changed to the First Army of the People's Revolutionary Army of the Republic.

Before the siege, Song Xiaofei was dressed in military uniform, rode on a tall horse, pulled out a sharp command knife into the air, and once again mobilized with the new army: "Brothers, to be honest, soldiers in the past were often looked down upon, why?" Because the soldiers in the past were all the lowest level of society as soldiers, and they only thought about their own promotion and wealth. After becoming an official, he only knew how to oppress the defenseless people. Just like the flag soldiers in Nanjing, in the face of foreigners' foreign guns and cannons, they run faster than rabbits, but in the face of their own compatriots, they are a hundred times more fierce than jackals! Remember that you are not the same as them, and you must remember that you are the army of the republic! You defend your homeland and the country, fight for the honor of the people and the republic! Only keep this firmly in mind. You will be an invincible army! I have made a military order to Lord Nakado. Within ten days. I am determined to take the city of Nanjing, and I know that today's battle will be fierce! But remember, you are an invincible republican team! Long live the Republic! ”

Xu Shichang took the lead and shouted: "Long live the republic!"

Duan Qirui, Duan Qirui, and Wang Shizhen also pulled out their sabers. With thousands of new troops behind him, they were full of morale and confidence, and shouted together: "Long live the republic!" ”

The shouts shook the sky, and the flag army in Nanjing City didn't know what this group of madmen was shouting, but they didn't need to know, because their end would soon come!

The battle horn sounded, and the National Revolutionary Army was in the tune of the military song "Kaiser Wilhelm's Training Song". At the beginning of the attack, Duan Qirui's artillery blasted a gap through the south gate of Nanjing City, and the recruits poured into Nanjing City like a tide, and the Manchu cavalry was dizzy when they were bombarded by Krupp's heavy artillery. Some Manchu cavalry, unable to even ride steadily, fell directly from their horses and fell to their deaths, and Shao Ying killed three officers guarding the city gate in a row, but to no avail.

Seeing that he couldn't hold the city of Nanjing, Shaoying decided to command 30,000 banner troops to go out of the city to fight hard with Song Xiaofei's new army, to attack instead of defend, and to carry out a decisive battle, but these flag soldiers who went out of the city were first blown up by Duan Qirui's artillery, and then Feng Guozhang took 2,000 infantry and held Martini. Henry's rifles sniped in formation, the "bang bang" gunshots rang non-stop, the black muzzle white smoke billowed out, the barrels were about to "burn" red, the first row of infantry was finished, the second row continued to top, dense bullets whistled away, like a bullet net, the Manchu cavalry was beaten all over the sieve, leaving only the frightened war horses galloping on the empty field! Wang Shizhen's cavalry finally went into battle to sweep the tail, and it was another terrifying killing.

The combat effectiveness of the two warring sides is not at all in the same dynasty, Shaoying's battle, fought quite desperately, 60,000 banner troops, less than 30 hours, more than half of the dead and wounded, no one can get out of Nanjing City alive, he finally understands that he has encountered a more powerful opponent than foreign devils!

On the morning of the third day, the city gates, tens of thousands of Nanjing citizens who had been ravened by the war with their bodies were going to flock out, wanting to flee to the countryside for refuge, the Qing army was to drive them away at first, but it was not up to the matter, at noon, there were already 70,000 citizens rushed out of Nanjing City, and in the evening, there were more and more citizens who wanted to flee, and 20,000 citizens, including merchants, gentlemen, and coolies, flocked to the city gate like a tide, Shao Ying also knew that Nanjing City could not be defended, so he ordered to use the method of beheading to show the public to deter these Han people who wanted to flee, and the flag army put them in a group of ten, Stand in a row and be beheaded together.

After Song Xiaofei heard the people who escaped talk about the massacre in the city, his heart was like a knife, and he ordered to increase the intensity of the siege: "Nanjing City must be taken tonight!" ”

Duan Qirui commanded the artillery to blast open the gaps in the four city gates of Nanjing, southeast, northwest and northwest, and the new army poured into the city one after another to attack the Qing army.

On the way to escape, Shao Ying gave the order to massacre, and the Qing army, whose hands were stained with blood, began to massacre the Han Chinese, regardless of age or age, many ran into the narrow streets and alleys and rampaged, ran to the women's houses to loot money, many rich families fell to the ground, and the streets and alleys were on fire, and from the Bauhinia Mountain, the fire lit up the sky.

When Song Xiaofei took Nanjing City in the middle of the night, the Yellow Dragon Banner that burned several big holes could be seen everywhere, he saw with his own eyes that most of the city was burned, there were thousands of corpses killed on the streets, the city was desolate and silent, and the cruelty of the war made him almost no sense of joy of victory.

After capturing the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion, Song Xiaofei ordered people to begin to count the prisoners, and in this battle, nearly 20,000 flag soldiers were captured. Song Xiaofei was discussing with Xu Shichang and a few people about the peace of the people after entering the city, and the king of the big sword came to the hall of the government with a big tie of flowers, the general was disheveled, there were some straws in his hair, the bridge of his nose was straight, his cheekbones were very high, and he looked like a flag man, and his face was injured.

Dadao Wang Wu said: "This person is Shaoying, the general of Shengjing who ordered the slaughter of the city, he fled to the backyard of a farmer's house, hid in the straw pile of the farmer's house, was discovered, I rushed over, and caught it!" ”

Song Xiaofei said: "Fifth brother of the hard king, you captured the German major Roishide at Bali Bridge last time, and this time you captured Shaoying, the general of Shengjing in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and made another miraculous achievement!" ”

Shao Ying refused to kneel, and the handle of the big sword king hit his kneecap, making a clicking sound of broken bones, and then scolded: "What my big sword king hates the most is the banner soldiers who kill the people indiscriminately, if you are a real man, you have the ability to do it with foreigners!" Slaughter the people, count yourself as a birdman! ”

Shao Ying's kneecaps were shattered, and he was sweating profusely in pain, still struggling to stand on one leg, scolding Song Xiaofei and Li Hongzhang, and said: "Li Hongzhang ate the fortunes of my banner people, but he raised an army against the Qing Dynasty, plotting against me to love the world of Xinjueluo, so rebellious, how can I kneel to you rebels and thieves!" ”

Song Xiaofei said "bah" and said, "I have 10,000 new troops to defeat your 100,000 banner army, do you know why?" This world is the world of the people of the world! You are a million flag people, carrying bird cages all day long, dragging long skirts, drinking tea and chatting, the four bodies are not diligent and the five grains are not divided, if it weren't for my 30,000,000 Han people, I would have starved to death! The braids of the Manchu people have made the world laugh, and they have led foreigners to break through the capital and scourge the people, do you still want us and other Han people to grovel? We're not stupid, we just want to get back what once belonged to the Han Chinese. For this day, we Han people have been waiting for more than 200 years! You should have given it back to us! I don't like to kill people, but you ordered the slaughter of the city, and if you are not beheaded today, I am sorry for the thousands of people who died in the city of Nanjing! Come on, pull Shao Ying out and kill him! ”

Two soldiers in military uniforms came in outside the door, and the big sword king said: "My lord, keep the bullet to fight the flag, I will execute him with a big knife." ”

Song Xiaofei said: "Okay, you caught the person, and I will leave it to you to dispose of!" ”

After defeating Shaoying's 100,000 banner army, Song Xiaofei posted a notice to calm the people, asking Liu Kunyi, the governor of Liangjiang, to re-enter Nanjing, pacify the local people in Jiangsu, and recuperate.

In this battle, the city of Nanjing was taken in three days, and the flag army of 100,000 was defeated, and Song Xiaofei's Republic of the People's Revolutionary Army was famous all over the world, and the British minister to China, Zhu Erdian, sent a telegram back to London, saying that Song Xiaofei would be the first person to control the situation in China in the future, and suggested that the British government should focus on supporting Song Xiaofei.

When the Han people in Shanxi, Sichuan and other places received the news of Li Hongzhang's opposition to the Qing Dynasty, the people's hearts were excited, and many people began to rise up! After Song Xiaofei's 10,000 new troops took Nanjing, they went all the way to Taiyuan in the north, and Yuxian, the governor of Shanxi, was defeated and committed suicide. At the same time, Liu Mingchuan led 10,000 Huai troops to capture Chengdu, Sichuan Governor Kuijun was killed in battle, and the two armies formed a joint encirclement of Xi'an, and Shaanxi was in danger!

After receiving the news that Shao Ying was defeated and killed in Nanjing, and Shanxi and Sichuan were lost, Prince Gong sat down in his chair and said to himself: "The Great Qing Kingdom is going to be finished, and my banner people are going to be finished." ”

At this time, the acting governor of Shaanxi, Duan Fang, stood up and said: "Don't be sad, you still have a tiger general who can fight with the Huai army, and this person will definitely make the Huai army frightened." ”

Prince Gong asked, "Who can fight with Song Xiaofei's new army?" ”

Duan Fang said: "Dong Fuxiang, the governor of Kashgar, this person was born as a bandit, brave and good at fighting, he participated in Zuo Zongtang's suppression of the Hui uprising and the pacification of the southern Xinjiang Agubai riot to recover the lost territory of Xinjiang, many military exploits, Dong Fuxiang treated the enemy army very cruelly in the battle, known as dyeing his top red with blood, most of his subordinates came from the northwest of Gansu Province, where the people were fierce, extremely fierce, the imperial court could order him to raise 20,000 troops, stick to Tongguan Tianxian, Shaanxi and Manchu must be worry-free. ”

Prince Gong said: "If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, Dong Fuxiang is not my bannerman, can he serve us?" ”

Duan Fang said: "This person likes to practice martial arts but does not like to read, and is known for his loyalty and bravery. ”

Prince Gong said: "Okay, I will immediately let the emperor decree that Dong Fuxiang be named the general of Pingnan, and the rank of squire of the military department will be added, so that he can come to Xi'an quickly!" ”
