Chapter 40: Whom to Rely
The net whip rang three times, and the cigarette smoke was swirling.
Huanghuang Taihe Palace, I don't know how many years I haven't called such a big court!
According to the dynasty system that has not changed since the middle of the Qing Dynasty, such a court meeting, in addition to military aircraft, six ministries and nine secretaries, should be said to be of the highest value. It won't be gathered all at once, but it's now. The sky is not clear, the sedan chair outside the Longzong Gate is a string, the white lanterns are dotted, the neatly dressed military ministers, the six departments and Jiuqing have all gathered, waiting for the court meeting.
Over the years, there have been few even uneven court meetings. If something is reported to the center, the military aircraft or the prime minister and the ministers of various countries who can't hide will gather to discuss it, and then Darami Zhangjing will handle the manuscript and send it to the end of it. Anyway, it's not them who have the idea, and God knows if the place will do the same. There are also six ministries and nine Qing meetings, and the poor Beijing officials have no money to make supplements, so it is most important to cultivate some spirit.
But since Xu Yifan's flying telegram arrived, Guangxu Ye happily called the court meeting!
A few days ago, bad news came one after another, and the Jingshi had been shaken and shaken. Everyone in the imperial party who is fighting the main battle is silent, and some people even pretend to be sick and can't get out, and no one can come up with a solution.
Half of Korea fell, the naval division collapsed, and the gateway to coastal defense was wide open...... There are already rumors. At the beginning, Lafayette made a step to see what these Qingliu scholars could do, but now it seems that Lafayette, who has returned to politics, still has to invite Lafayette who has returned to politics to take this big idea!
Guangxu has been going to the Summer Palace to ask for peace more and more diligently, sometimes he sees it, sometimes he doesn't. The rest of the time was just a pile of telegrams that I didn't know if they were useful or not, and the battle to the death was loud and loud.
Putting aside the political controversy above, let's just talk about this war. Such a Qing Dynasty is also known as the Zhongxing since Xiantong, why can't even a small book be beaten? The invincible Beiyang armed forces have been defeated and defeated, what else can they use to resist the devil of Xiao Yueben? Although it is said that it is necessary to recruit troops, to regather the Hunan army, and to buy ships quickly, everyone knows that this top hair is used. After practicing for decades, Beiyang is not an opponent no matter how much money it has spent. Can the newly recruited soldiers stop it?
The Qing Dynasty bullied the Western devils enough, and the reason why the imperial party appeared was not entirely for the sake of power. Everyone has a vague thought, in this world, is it something that Lafayette can't make? Or do you want to count on the Holy Monarch to take power? Now that this road has been defeated, everyone also feels a little bit that this holy monarch is on top, is it a little unreliable?
So what should be done to get out? Is it really necessary to make a constitution as some bold scholars have called?
With no way out, everyone is waiting with bated breath for worse news. Unexpectedly, Xu Yifan's good news came from North Korea! With 10,000 lone troops, he did not get any support from the imperial court, and everyone more or less knew how Xu Yifan was excluded and oppressed by the imperial court and Beiyang. As a result, he won a great victory that killed nearly 10,000 enemies! It is said that the so-called first army of the Qing Dynasty has a number of generals in the army, and the Qing Times have introduced his life, and now he is surrounded by Xu Yifan, and if he is not killed, he will be captured by the Beijing Division!
At first, my first reaction was not to believe it, Ye Zhichao didn't blow it big enough? As a result, only two or three days later, the foreigners watching the battle sent back a message, confirming the good news. The army left behind in Seoul is in a panic. The Fifth Division, which was personally commanded by Youtomo of Heshan County, had lost contact, and the cavalry of the Praetorian Guard had even appeared near Seoul! The foreign devils have all seen the Canglong military banner of the Praetorian Guard with their own eyes!
The Qing Dynasty and the opposition were immediately ecstatic. The teahouse in Yanjing City alone, these words, the three words that are shouted the loudest are Xu Dashuai! The people of the Qing Dynasty were crazy, and finally a mainstay came out to turn the tide!
Lafayette can't do it, the emperor can't command it personally, and Li Zhongtang, who has been famous for 20 years, can't do it, but we still have a Xu Dashuai!
Of course, these thoughts are in the hearts of the people.
But for these officials waiting for the court meeting, it was a different plan. This war, no matter how you say it, is personally provoked by the emperor, and Lafayette doesn't care. defeated Li Hongzhang first top the cylinder, and the emperor followed the top cylinder. Now it seems that Li Hongzhang's bad head has been touched, but the emperor is angry! What is Lafayette's mind about such a situation?
The officials who entered the main hall under the guidance of the eunuchs were pondering this question with heavy thoughts. When they made eye contact with each other, they all avoided it quickly. Amitabha, let's take a look at the wind again.
"The emperor has arrived!" With the sound of the whip and the voice of the eunuch's duck, these ministers standing at the height of the Qing Dynasty's official system and the six Jiuqing Mountains shouted long live and worshipped. I heard the sound of footsteps, and then the voice of Guangxu's unconcealed smile: "Flat, flat!" ”
Everyone got up and peeked up. I saw Guangxu dressed in court clothes, sitting on the throne, smiling and twisting the pearls. The pale face is now almost shining. Seeing that the ministers had already gotten up and taken their positions, he said with a smile: "Call up today, just to tell everyone, Xu Yifan's good news has come, and I have already asked the Queen Mother Lafayette to say hello." Lafayette's message. This battle, let's fight to the end! The Qing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and said that Ben provoked his old man unhappy in Lafayette Wanshou, shouldn't he be painfully suppressed? I am merciful to carry this burden! ”
In front of him, his tone was brisk, and he almost laughed, but later, his tone was already deep: "Since I have been in the imperial pole, I have always treated my subordinates with forgiveness, and there is only tolerance in everything, don't you expect everyone to inspire conscience and serve the country?" As soon as the war starts, this is called a litmus test, knowing which people have been perfunctory for 20 years, once the army starts, it will be a ruckus! I also know what loyal ministers we still have in the Qing Dynasty! Lafayette ordered me to preside over the war against the Japanese, and I won't tolerate anything this time! If you don't make any effort, there is heaven and law waiting for you! The telegram sent a few days ago should be investigated by the military aircraft and all departments, and how it was handled. Have you recruited soldiers, have you raised salaries...... Perfunctory, only the lock is taken! In addition, I would like to make an edict to the Japanese people, as long as they withdraw from my vassal state, admit defeat and surrender, apologize, and I can tolerate it, and if I continue to fight, I am afraid that their country will be destroyed! ”
He babbled a lot, and some of the ministers below were silent. Guangxu called the court meeting to declare that by fighting this battle, he would slowly take power. If the people below don't take him seriously, he won't be polite. They have to be made to understand who the boss is...... Xu Yifan's good news aroused the people's morale, and Lafayette could only pinch his nose and admit to fighting. Is the emperor really going to take power all the time?
The people at the bottom moved their own minds, and they forgot to answer. Seeing that it was a little cold, Guangxu's face sank when he saw it. Weng Tonghe had been listening to it in the shift, and the old man almost shook his head. Looking at the cold field, Weng Tonghe hurriedly came out of the queue and knelt down with a plop: "The emperor is shengming!" How can I not win if I am obedient and rebellious? The emperor's sacred heart is silent, and he will be merciful and thunderous, and he will definitely win the victory! Ministers walking on military planes should be cautious and honest, so as to help the saint achieve great causes! There are still a few things to serve......"
The teacher's words were so good that Guangxu's face was relieved. How long have they been looking forward to this? At the moment, he smiled and said: "Lord Weng, hurry up, if there is anything to do." ”
Weng Tonghe was still lying on the ground, his voice was like a bell, and he was full of energy: "The first is that the law must be rigorous!" The emperor was determined to exterminate the Japanese people, and Lord Xu won a series of battles in Korea. Under such a general trend, if there are any more people who do not contribute to fighting to the death, defeat once they fight, and lie about the military situation, they can only take away their posts depending on the severity of their crimes, and those who take the locks will take the locks, and the Fa-rectification will be the Fa-rectification! Lord Xu's victory, the Japanese people have already broken their courage, and they don't contribute anymore, they really can't stand the hard work of the saints! ”
These words are obviously aimed at Li Hongzhang, as the most powerful faction in the local area, Li Hongzhang has never supported Guangxu, and has always been authoritative and cautious in accordance with Cixi. Cixi's authority and Li Hongzhang's strength overwhelmed the imperial party, and there was no chance to turn over.
There was silence in the hall, and Guangxu nodded with a smile: "Accurate!" That's what I mean...... What else does the teacher have to play? All said, all said! ”
Weng Tonghe's expression was shining, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, please reward Lord Xu and the Praetorian Guard." Lord Xu is loyal, all the armies are defeated and the enemy is alone, and the prestige of the country and the people's hearts are greatly enhanced! How can you serve the world if you don't appreciate it? The Praetorian Guard contributed to the soldiers, and the court also rewarded them heavily. The Praetorian Guard is the armed forces of the imperial court, and His Majesty is pro-army! After the victory, it should be returned to the capital division and be the support of the Great Wall of the Qing Dynasty for me! ”
Guangxu was excited when he heard this, stood up from the throne and walked a few steps: "The military aircraft will discuss with the six departments and Jiuqing, and reward Xu Yifan and the Praetorian Guard!" ”
He stood still and said proudly: "Little Ben, I don't measure myself, and I am hostile to the Qing Dynasty." Undefeated wait! It is said that this is small and I am big, and if I fight it, I will not have their good fruit to eat! Xu Yifan won the battle, I want to gather troops in North Korea and destroy this dynasty! …… Edict to the world! ”
In addition to Weng Tonghe, all the ministers of the imperial party bowed down one after another, the mountain shouted long live, and the other officials glanced at each other and bowed down. Shi Duo, the foreman of the military aircraft, is an important minister of the post-party, and these sons are overwhelmed by Weng Tonghe's edge at the military aircraft, and he knelt down slowly, while sneering in his heart: "Frivolous!" Do you really think that a Xu Yifan is the leaning of Mount Tai? Then there is news of the loss, see what you do? ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tianjin, Beiyang Minister Yamen.
In Li Hongzhang's study, the two looked at each other silently. Today, Li Hongzhang didn't even go to the detention room, but just stayed in his study, holding a telegram, looking at it carefully over and over again, and I don't know how long I have been reading it. Yang Shixiang stood aside, also with a blue face.
The room was silent, and only the sound of paper shaking and sparse threads could be heard.
In the end, Li Hongzhang shook his hand, put the paper telegram on the table, covered his face with a pair of hands full of old age spots, and sighed deeply: "Lafayette has given a mercy message...... It's just against me Li Hongzhang alone, if Beiyang loses the battle, she won't be able to save us...... Lafayette, this is forcing us to win in Beiyang......"
“…… But how to win? The essence of water and land is gone, and Nie Gongting is now controlled by Xu Yifan...... The emperor and those emperor Qingliu thought that they could win this battle by telegraphing, and thought that they were really vulnerable, and it was I, Li Hongzhang, who refused to contribute...... Now I must have used the fleet to cover the warships, and I am about to land at the seaports and go straight to my heart! Haikou in the north is the responsibility of my Li Hongzhang, and I will be defeated again. How do you clean it up? If the war drags on, it is not good for me to say that it is not good, but our Beiyang is also finished! ”
Listening to Old Man Li's tired tone, Yang Shixiang's heart was sour, and tears almost fell. He couldn't figure it out, how could Xu Yifan win? Now it is like relying on the Great Wall of the Qing Dynasty, and Guangxu is still taking advantage of this false fire to fight, asking for power from Cixi at the top, and beating the local powerful faction at the bottom.
Whether the imperial party can succeed is another matter, but if it is defeated again, it will be really difficult for Beiyang to turn over. Li Hongzhang's life's work must also be put into flowing water!
Guangxu took advantage of Xu Yifan's victory to ascend to the throne, and Cixi wanted Beiyang to win and consolidate power. But no matter how Beiyang fights, it is estimated that it will be a defeat!
Yang Shixiang took a deep breath, picked up the telegram and flicked it lightly, and then threw it into a ball of contempt and threw it into a corner. Li Hongzhang heard the sound and looked up in surprise: "Lotus room!" ”
Yang Shixiang said coldly: "Zhongtang, if we can't win, we won't win, so Xu Yifan can't win!" Everyone is a loser, and there is still a fight! As long as the imperial party does not come up, our Beiyang will still be stable! ”
Li Hongzhang's eyes widened, just looking at Yang Shixiang. Yang Shixiang's face was already almost black, and he talked eloquently: "Xu Yifan won in Pyongyang head-on, but according to the deployment of his telegraph court, he still needs Nie Gongting's 10,000 old troops of our Huai army to cover him!" The British minister also revealed a little news to Zhongtang, saying that he has more than 10,000 soldiers, known as the Third Division, and is ready to float to the sea and go to Lu Yuanshan, as long as Nie Gongting gets out of the way, Xu Yifan will die without a place to be buried! No matter how miserable we lose, as long as this Xu Yifan accompanies us, we can explain it anywhere...... In the end, Lafayette still has to rely on the strength of these places in Beiyang to subdue Guangxu Xiaoer! ”
Li Hongzhang shot the case, and pointed at Yang Shixiang: "Yang Lianfang, you bastard!" At this time, the national war is said, you are making such wild words! After all, the Qing Dynasty is a big country, a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff. Although it is sharp, it is too small. No matter how miserable our defeat is, as long as Xu Yifan's army can hold on, the Qing Dynasty will continue to fight. said that he couldn't afford it, and later, he just talked about peace. At that time, Ben couldn't slaughter us as he pleased! And your idea is to ruin my Qing Dynasty's national fortunes! ”
Yang Shixiang's expression did not move, and he retorted coldly: "What other national fortunes does the Qing Dynasty have?" I'm just planning for Zhongtang and Beiyang! Zhongtang said so, Xu Yifan also thought so! At that time, we will only look at Xu Yifan as Zhongtian, and the stars of Beiyang will be scattered, and Zhongtang will bear all the infamy! Zhongtang, what do you think? ”
The two looked at each other fiercely, and later, Li Hongzhang looked away, sat down on the chair, and sneered: "I'm afraid that the old man is willing to make his reputation, and Beiyang is reluctant to give up his position...... Nie Gongting has already returned to Xu Yifan, can he listen to you? ”
"Nie Gongting didn't listen, but the Huai army was up and down, and the middle hall has been raised for decades, and he still has to listen to the middle hall when the time comes! Please Zhongtang telegraph the imperial court, transfer Ye Zhichao, Wei Rugui and others to return to China, and let these two people wait for me on the other side of the Yalu River! He said that his fleet could only move during the day, from Lushun to the mouth of the Yalu River, smuggling into the sea, and arriving in the middle of the night. I took Ye Wei and the others to Nie Gongting's army to seize power! Lead the troops to retreat! Zhongtang, this is our last chance, in the blink of an eye, it will land in my major sea mouth! For the sake of Beiyang, why don't your subordinates regret this, but ask Zhongtang to decide! ”
Li Hongzhang looked blank and sat in the chair. As soon as the door of the study rang, it was Zhang Peilun who rushed in with the hem of his robe. This Li Hongzhang's son-in-law didn't know how long he had been listening outside the door, and when he came in, he slapped Yang Shixiang viciously in the face. Yang Shixiang did not show weakness, twisted him with his backhand, and the two former merry Hanlin immediately scuffled together.
"Bastard bastard, if you have an idea that has lost your conscience, I can't kill you!"
"You are so righteous and awe-inspiring, don't run away in Majiang in the first place!"
Jingling, the two fought in a mess, punching and kicking, one did not let the other. In the end, they twisted into a ball, one pinched each other's necks, the other pulled each other's braids, and the scolding in his mouth became higher and higher.
Li Hongzhang watched them scuffle there, and in the end, he slammed the table and stood up: "Get out of here!" ”
The two elegant Hanlins with blue noses and swollen faces stopped for a moment and looked at Li Hongzhang blankly.
And Li Hongzhang stood there, closed his eyes heavily, tears were in his eyes, and whispered to himself.
"Get out of here......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Said Ben, Upingang.
Military music whimpered, and the drizzle came down. In the midst of the wind and rain, the neat soldiers of the Yue Army were silently getting on the boat. The ronins and the common people of the Newspaper Regiment waved their flags in the distance, letting out a series of hoarse shouts.
The waves are not small, pushing the ups and downs of those merchant ships in the port. The old warships that had not been incorporated into the Combined Fleet had already pulled anchor and left the port, and in the smoke and rain, only pillars of smoke could be seen in the sky, and there was a whistle. After waiting for the ship to be loaded, they escorted the ship out to sea.
The 3rd Division, which had been urgently mobilized in the country, had already assembled a day earlier than planned and was ready to set off.
On the pier, two officers with shining stars were striding along, and all the officers and soldiers stood up and saluted as they passed. These two generals, one is Lieutenant General Katsura Taro, the commander of the Third Division, and a student of General Youpeng in Shan County, who is now surrounded by Xu Yifan. And one is Lieutenant General Kawakami, chief of staff of the army in the base camp.
The two lieutenant generals walked in the rain, soaking wet, but they didn't care. Looking at the spectacular mobilization scene at the port, neither of them brows.
"Kawakami-kun, you are from Satsuma, unlike us from Choshu, who are deeply gracious. Your Excellency Shan County was besieged in Shwe Hung Mansion, and we had to attack, even though we knew that we were defeated......"
"Why did you lose?"
"Xu Yifan's Praetorian Guards are obviously taking advantage of the inside line to break our main force one by one. Since he can break the Fifth Division, he can also defeat the Third Division...... We set off today, on the 22nd, we went to Lu Yuanshan, attacked and advanced, and the Huai Army Nie Shicheng blocked the front, Xu Yifan had enough time to transfer the main force over...... Although we will fight to the death, the future is indeed unpredictable...... Why did the base camp insist on refusing to transfer the Second Army to fight in Korea? ”
Kawakami Yoroku smiled faintly: "Just to fight North Korea, the Qing Emperor will not ask for peace...... No matter how many victories we win in Korea, as long as we do not approach the heartland of the Qing Kingdom, we will not be able to achieve results. Gui Jun, think about it, Xu Yifan has already demonstrated his defensive ability, and forced the Fifth Division to be crippled in one day! How long will it take for the Second Army to join him and break him? The empire annihilated Xu Yifan with the power of the whole country, so what? It is likely that we will no longer have the strength to enter the Qing Headquarters...... At that time, the empire was only bankrupt. ”
"But this is still for the Third Division to send to death! His Excellency Ito is sending it to the Qing people themselves stupidly! Beat yourself! Katsura Taro's face was pale, and he didn't know if he was angry or rained. The army has already expressed its displeasure so strongly that it has even gone so far as to go up to His Majesty the Emperor. However, the emperor still handed over all the decision to Ito Hirobumi, and the army had to obey.
Kawakami Ryoroku was born in the Satsuma Domain and rose to the top of the army, which was already a bit of an outlier, and of course Katsura Taro also thought that this guy definitely didn't fight with Hirobumi Ito in the base camp.
Kawakami knew that Katsura Taro was angry, smiled faintly, took off his military hat and flicked it gently. The rain was on his flat head, and he seemed to feel cool.
"Qing people are not stupid, how can they fall behind us and ourselves? Please believe Your Excellency Ito, he knows the Qing people better than we do. Your Excellency Shan County can't help but save ...... Although it may be too late. If we can't save Your Excellency Shan County, we must also contain Xu Yifan so that he can't help southern Liaoning...... Besides, what awaits us, maybe a surprise? ”
Kawakami Yoroku smiled and pointed at himself: "I have been defeated by Xu Yifan twice, the first time was because I didn't know such a person, and the second time was to maintain the face of the army, so that His Excellency Shan Shan would attack arbitrarily, without waiting for the third division." This time, please let me march towards death with the Nagoya Corps, the fortune of the country is in the hands of you and me, either defeat and death, or watch the rise of the empire, but also happy. ”
Katsura Taro pressed the saber, looked at Kawakami Yaroku, and finally looked up to the sky and laughed: "Okay, let's accompany His Excellency Ito, accompany the entire empire, and bet on our lives!" ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sound of gunfire and cannons suddenly fell silent, followed by earth-shattering shouts.
The heavy rain was falling in the summer, and in the muddy mountains, the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard braved the rain, and many robes had fallen into the muddy water. The rest were still struggling forward, and the front ones had already rushed up the mountain, and the white blades reflected the cold light, shining little by little.
Li Xingchong was at the front, and the military hat didn't know where he had thrown it for a long time. Capture the high ground here, and in front of you is Ruixing Mansion, the last stronghold of the Fifth Division! The army is desperately struggling to resist here, and the soldiers who can move have already filled in. All the shells that could be fired were fired. After attacking and counter-attacking again and again, the cyan mountains have long been scorched black, and the soldiers and officers on both sides don't know how many, and when they fall, they may be able to see a pale human hand stretched out of the muddy water!
The two sides fought desperately for two days, and one battalion of the Praetorian Guard couldn't beat the other battalion again, and now it has been replaced by a third battalion!
A ragged soldier screamed and pounced, his rifle did not have a bayonet, so it smashed in turn, Li Xing stabbed to the left, pushed away his rifle, and stabbed into the chest of the soldier with the advantage of the situation. The soldier threw away his rifle and grabbed his bayonet, and fell to the sky, and Li Xing's whole person was also half-kneeled.
Braving the heavy rain and rushing up the hill, and the bullets to greet him, his physical strength was almost the same. Now that he felt that he had no strength in drawing bayonets, out of the corner of his eye, he saw more soldiers jumping out of the muddy pond-like trenches himself, who had learned to dig trenches with the Praetorian Guards. The soldiers were covered in mud and had scorched faces, and the wounded were crawling in the muddy water, and a dozen bayonets came up to them. There was also a stocky officer, limping behind with a saber brandished, shouting like a madman.
"Fuck, I'm ...... now"
Before he could finish the thoughts in his head, a breathless roar sounded around him, and bayonets passed over him and met him. His brethren followed!
The two sides collided together and scuffled into a ball. The sound of a bayonet poking into a human body was terrifying. Occasionally, there was a scream in my throat. Soldiers on both sides are pouring up, consuming each other as if human lives don't cost money. Li Xingrong exerted a little effort, kicked the corpse with his feet, pulled out the rifle bayonet stuck in the ribs, and pounced straight at the short and fat officer.
The officer had been hit by a bayonet in the leg, and was half-kneeling, still yelling and waving his saber, and seemed to be half-insane. Li Xing approached from the side, and a bayonet poked through the junction of his left neck and shoulder.
The major artery on the side of the neck was cut in an instant, as if it had stagnated for a moment, and the blood column suddenly rushed to the top of the old high, spraying Li Xing's face full of blood foam, which was drenched by the rain, and then washed away again. Only the blood stains on the military uniform were deeper into the cloth pattern.
The officer screamed in his throat, clutched his neck and half-turned as if he wanted to stand up, and finally fell down. Seeing him fall, the soldiers finally collapsed, and turned around and fled after throwing away their guns and knives. These guys are no longer in the formation, and they collapse down the mountain like wandering spirits. And in front of the Praetorian Guard, it is the small Ruixing Mansion!
A cannonball flew in, stirring up muddy water more than a foot high, and no one bent down to dodge. This last shell of the Chinese army also seems to announce the change of hands of this point.
Li Xing gasped deeply and ordered loudly: "Plant our military flag!" Then he sat on the corpse of the officer, and accidentally found that this guy had a rank on his shoulder!
On August 20, the fourth year of A.D., the Praetorian Guard had cleared all the key points outside Ruixing Mansion. In this Sino-Japanese War, the vanguard general of the entire Japanese army, Major General Yoshimasa Oshima, was killed.
The Fifth Division still had more than 2,000 remnants left, assembled in Ruixing Mansion, and defended the city to the death, waiting for the final day to come. In the city, there is one of the leaders of the Choshu Domain of the Army, General Yama Yamatomo!
Xu Yifan and Li Yunzong stood side by side at the forward headquarters, holding binoculars to see the whole battle. The battalions of the Praetorian Guard were tired. The casualties were close to two percent, and in the end, Xu Yifan had no choice but to pull his brother-in-law up. As a new army, although the morale of the Praetorian Guard is high, the level of tenacity is still not as good as that of the long-fought troops. More than 10 percent of the casualties are already quite high. If you can repair it in time and restore your physical strength and morale, this kind of training with real knives and guns can make the combat effectiveness of the Praetorian Guards quickly recover and be greatly improved.
Li Yunzong shook his head lightly: "If these troops are still used in the general attack, I'm afraid it will hurt your vitality, my lord." ”
Xu Yifan's face was not good-looking. The devils are resisting too much! With this kind of firepower advantage, he has been fighting for so long and paying so many casualties, these officers and soldiers have been painstakingly saved, and his heart is so distressed that his liver trembles.
He said in a low voice: "I have transferred our two old battalions over there in Nie Gongting, as well as the battalion in Anzhou, to use them for the general attack...... We must comprehensively defeat the Yue army as soon as possible! The devil's third division will probably go to the land in the next few days, and we must transfer the main force as soon as possible! Yunzong, the general attack must not fail, I can't afford to delay this time! ”
Li Yunzong actually glanced at Xu Yifan very rudely, and pointed to the Canglong Banner that had just been erected and was fluttering in the wind: "My lord, do you still doubt your Praetorian Guard?" ”
(To be continued)
