"It's water, it's water, put out the fire......"

……

In his sleep, Ma Ronghe was awakened by a noisy sound, and the person sat up from the bed violently, "What's going on outside?" ”

At first, he thought that he had been attacked by the Qing army in the city, but this was not the case.

"Prime Minister, Huangjiatai's stockade is on fire!" The familiar voice of the pro-army outside the tent sounded.

Ma Ronghe's vigilance did not go away, but rose, and the fire in the Chenggu West Camp made the entire Western Expeditionary Army feel uneasy. "Why? Can you contact Huang Jiatai? Is it the Qing Demon's doing? ”

"I didn't hear the fighting. Huang Jiatai has not yet been contacted, and the last general will send someone immediately. ”

"Hmm. Watch out! ”

Ma Ronghe's sleepiness disappeared, and after giving orders, he slowly got up in his clothes. Opened the curtain and looked at Huangjiatai, the voices of people were boiling, the fire was red, but there was no sign of fighting, was it just an accident?

There was a good wind tonight, although it was not as strong as the east wind that Liu Xian borrowed at the beginning, but it was still easy to catch the fire. Soon Ma Rong and the big tent got in touch with Huangjiatai, and soon the fire in Huangjiatai became irrepressibly vigorous.

Relying only on the army stationed in Huangjiatai, a team of less than 2,000 people, and 500 young and strong men, it was impossible to put out the fire if they had to go to the Jialing River more than two miles away to carry water to put out the fire.

Ma Ronghe scolded the military commander for his waste, and at the same time strictly ordered the first-line camps in the county to raise their attention to prevent the Qing army in the city from raiding, and then allocated the remaining battalions to organize firefighting.

There is no sign of man-made at all, and there is no clear demon waiting for an opportunity to kill, Ma Ronghe seems that this fire may really be an accident. He responded like this, only focusing his vigilant attention on the county seat of Fengxian County, and being vigilant against the Qing army in the city taking advantage of the fire to rob.

As for Liu Xian outside, there were two Taiping armies chasing him, and Ma Ronghe really didn't want Liu Xian to come in. Even if the fire was not accidental or man-made, he only believed that the Qing army in the city was responsible. Peng Chun and the other two Taiping armies, with more than 2,000 troops, were led by local swordsmen who were familiar with geography, and if Liu Xian jumped out, then Liu Xianam's ability was really not in his imagination.

Ma Ronghe's campaigns in the past ten years have not been surrounded and intercepted by the superior forces of the Qing army, he knows the bitterness of that taste, and he understands the difficulty of getting rid of the pursuing soldiers.

[It is true that the military system of the Taiping Army was a brigade division army in the early days, but it has been transformed into a team and battalion establishment model in the later period. Most teams are divided into front, rear, left, right, and center, and there are teams and squads, which do not belong to each other. When there is a big front team, a big rear team, a big left team, a big right team, a big middle team, a front team, a rear team, a left team, a right team, a squadron, a total of 10 teams, according to the rules are crowned with "Yingfu", "Yingdian" or "Zhongfu" and "Zhongdian" The words are different. The team is divided into 5 battalions: front, rear, left, right, and center.

The Han and Feng continued to form the Taiping Army with brigades, divisions, and armies here, mainly for convenience. Some friends who understand the details still hope not to be more serious. 】

But when the Qing army defending the city in Fengxian County made a move to firmly attract the first-line camps of the Taiping Army, when several camps around Doujishan were young and strong and sent Huangjiatai to help fight the fire, and when hundreds of sudden enemies came to the front, Ma Ronghe was powerless to parry in shock.

There were only about 200 pro-troops left around him, and dozens of people were eaten by Liu Xian's assault at the beginning, and the remaining more than 100 people couldn't stop the attack of the superior enemy of gunpowder jar + white blade.

"Resist, resist—"

Ma Ronghe's face was iron-blue, and his ears rang with a roar like a madness from the pro-military inspection.

Resist, as long as you hold on for a moment and a half, and wait for Huang Jiatai's men and horses to come back to outflank him, he can eat all the enemies in front of him. But he knew very well that the team would not be able to withstand it.

As a veteran on the battlefield, he still has this understanding. The situation in the team can collapse at any moment.

The pro-military inspection frantically assigned people, "Hurry up, lead the team to withstand the impact of the Qing Demon!" ”

"The sword and shield hands are divided into two wings, they must be resisted by Lao Tzu, and it depends on them whether the prime minister can rush out or not!"

"The rear team will rush to Lao Tzu and open a bloody road-" The direction of the rear team is the top of Douji Mountain.

Looking at the enemies coming like a tide in front and back, the pro-army inspector gritted his teeth and couldn't care about anything, and ordered again and again, escorting Ma Ronghe and rushing out of the encirclement of the Qing Demon. As for whether the 200 pro-army can still have some seeds left, it depends on whether God blesses it.

These Taiping troops are worthy of being the pro-army of a general, crazy and brave, the pro-army inspection point personally led the team to rush and kill, and the crowd rushed left and right to be unstoppable. The sword and shield hands on the left and right sides gritted their teeth and struggled to resist the impact of Huang Mazi and Li Jiu, and the pro-soldiers in front also blocked Diao Gui's onslaught.

For a while, Ma Ronghe's danger seemed to be alleviated. But Ma Rong and Tie Qing's faces did not change at all, and he clearly understood that in addition to the knife in his hand, the enemy attacking him also had gunpowder, a more dangerous weapon.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Liu Xian led a specially selected grenadierier, and the Taiping army frantically threw gunpowder canisters wherever they wanted, and the people swept into a piece of the explosion like wheat in the flames of the explosion. Although it is very likely that this includes their own people who are also fighting hard.

Liu Xian really had no choice but to do so. The ferocity of this Taiping army was far beyond his imagination.

Thousands of Taiping troops were pouring in behind him, and he had to kill Ma Ronghe immediately and flee with his team to Douji Mountain.

"Rush out, rush out, rush out!"

The pro-army inspected a big knife in one hand, his face was covered with blood and murderous aura, his voice was hoarse, his eyes were bloodshot, and his head was wolf, but he was still raising his knife and shouting, rushing forward quickly.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

"Brothers, kill Ma Ronghe, kill Ma Ronghe, we all make great contributions, and if you die, there are adults who will raise you for a lifetime, and you will kill Lao Tzu!"

"Don't stop, don't stop, kill, kill!"

“……”

There were shouts of killing everywhere, and there were desperate shouts and shouts everywhere. The Taiping army was crazy, and the bandits, swordsmen, and mountain people were also willing to give up their lives. Behind him, the Taiping army that returned to the reinforcements was like a surging torrent, unstoppable, and the distance was close at hand.

There are only more than 20 people left around the pro-army inspection, but they are still rushing forward bravely, and when one person falls, another person immediately rises on top, not giving Wang Fugui in front of him a moment to breathe and adjust, just rushing and killing all the way.

"Crazy maniac, these crazy people ......"

The mountain bandits under Wang Fugui were washed away, the wolves were unbearable, and the army was born out of a bloody road, with corpses piled up along the way, stumps and broken arms thrown everywhere, and the soft ground was dyed with red blood into a shocking black and red.

Fortunately, the thirty knives left by Chen Bo rose up at the critical moment, and after Wang Fugui integrated his team, he did not hesitate to block the past.

The Taiping army was full of strength, then declined, and then exhausted. If the pro-army inspection is crazy, he can't kill the enemies who are in front of him one after another, Ma Ronghe closed his eyes.

In front of the camp, the Taiping army that returned to help had already arrived, but it was too late......

"Bang-"

Liu Xian, who went into battle in person, pulled his short gun, and the grenadiers were all reduced to hand-to-hand combat, because the gunpowder canisters were all thrown.

The swordsmen, bandits, and even villages in Feng County generally have gunpowder, but no one will do their best to reserve it like he did at the beginning. After several battles, tonight's powder jar is the last point.

The pro-military checker's body froze, and he looked down at the blood hole in his chest in shock, a stream of blood was flowing out of it, and the strength and vitality of his whole body also flowed out of this hole.

In front of the checkpoint, a mountain bandit has already opened the door and is waiting to die, as long as the checkpoint slashes down with the big knife raised above his head. But after waiting, the knife still didn't fall, and the mountain bandit didn't know what the reason was, and he didn't have time to observe it carefully, so he rolled on the spot and hurriedly climbed away. Before he could pick up the weapon on the ground again, the surging companions had already annihilated the checkpoint, and then the horse Ronghe!

"Ma Ronghe is dead, let's go up the mountain......"

The Taiping army that returned to the aid had already annihilated half of Diao Gui's troops.

At the head of the city of Fengxian County, a group of people looked at a line of fire that rose tactfully from the bottom to the top of Douji Mountain, their faces were very heavy, they stood at the head of the city in a daze, looking at the direction of Douji Mountain from afar, and they didn't feel cold when the night breeze blew, let alone get into the warm city gate tower on the side. It wasn't until a clear bell came from afar that everyone's faces suddenly relaxed, and then infinite joy and cheers rang out on the city.

On weekdays, the self-respecting identity, the magistrate who pays attention to majesty and style in his gestures, jumped and jumped like a child at this moment, laughing, crying, crying, laughing and crying......
