Seriously, a large part of the people are not used to the behavior of King Fu of Nanjing, after all, at this time, the foreign enemy is linked, and the lost territory in the north has not been recovered, so you start a civil war, and your brain is sick, and if you are not sick, you are also in the water.

This may seem like an unwise choice to most people, but it is an extremely important decision for both Nanjing and Guangzhou, and it will be extremely dangerous if they do not establish themselves through this war.

The Nanjing government nominally controls the largest territory, but the actual influence is not as great as Shen Youlong, and the old Comrade Shen has the backing of the Australians, and can continue to accept refugees, which is a good official in the mouth of the people of the world, and even with the praise of King Gui is endless, which was not done before.

King Gui only had a sense of glory as a prince at this time, and being respected is always much better than others fearing you because they are worried about your power, so this is definitely better for him than before.

Although this war has not yet started, it has attracted attention from all sides, and the main reason is whether Australia will be involved.

If the Australians are involved, the outcome of this war can already be predicted, the first battle of Shaoguan, the Australian Army shocked the world, with millions of people to resist the attack of more than 100,000 people, this kind of record even in the future generations is not available, with no one before or after the introduction, is the most appropriate.

The situation that the Liangguang New Army has to face now is the same as when the Australians faced Zhang Xianzhong, and if they can win, it can be seen how much help will be to the prestige of the Liangguang New Army.

If it fails, and the Fuwang regime in Nanjing successfully takes over Liangguang, then the Tang King of Fujian, the King of Lu in Zhejiang and others will also be in danger.

So at this time, all forces want to see who is stronger, if King Gui is strong, then you have to be careful about it in the future.

Both sides are preparing. Since Shen Youlong already knew that the other party was coming, he must have to be prepared, and the army on the Nanjing side was divided into two ways to attack, all the way from Hunan and all the way from Jiangxi, and the total number of troops on both sides exceeded 150,000.

In other words, the number of people along the way is more than 50,000, and such a large comparison of human resources makes the officials of the two Guangxi provinces a little mysterious, which is also too big. Even if the 5,000 new troops were divided into two groups, it would still be more than 2,000 people against tens of thousands of others.

However, Australia's advisory officer corps said that there was no big problem with this. Two thousand five hundred men is equivalent to the strength of a regiment, and it is entirely possible to deal with a unit that uses cold weapons.

As long as the general who commands the army is not stupid, it is absolutely possible, and the most important thing is that Liangguang belongs to the side defending the city, occupying a favorable geographical position, and with the abundance of weapons and ammunition, this can become a big advantage.

Under the conditions of absolute superiority, if Shen Youlong's new army has not yet won. Then it is simply too weak, how can such an army participate in the Northern Expedition or even the heavy task of unifying the South.

In the battle money, Shen Youlong said that his troops are definitely the best and will never lose to the Australians. That's how he encouraged his soldiers, although it was not good to spread the word, but there was no way to win.

King Fu's big fat man naturally knew Shen Youlong's Liangguang New Army, and how this army was fighting. It is not known yet, but one thing is certain that the weapons they used were all firearms, so the Nanjing court was also prepared. Even though they did not have Australian firearms, they still found a variety of weapons, earthen cannons, and bird guns from the hands of the defenders from all over the country.

This news was naturally known to Shen Youlong, and he smiled at King Fu's behavior and said to his subordinates, naïve.

In Shen Youlong's view, this backward old weapon against himself is equivalent to a group of barbarians fighting against civilized people.

But no matter what, King Fu's army has already driven to the border, and even if he is not optimistic, the defense work that should be done is still necessary.

Shaoguan has become a forward position at one time, defensive ditches have been dug outside the city wall, and several dark forts have been set up, coffee mill machine guns imported from Australia, have been erected in several key positions, this time the number of coffee machine guns and 26-pounder guns alone is quite large, so for King Fu's army, this battle is a challenge.

However, the confident King Fu has already announced to the world that he will definitely become the victor, no one can defeat him, and Shen Youlong and King Gui, the two who committed rebellion, must be punished.

Although the remarks were sharp, the action was too slow in the past, don't look at the attack of more than 100,000 people, but it was about more than 20 days on the road, such a long time is equivalent to buying Shen Youlong the opportunity for combat deployment.

With ample time to deploy, and with the guidance of Australian officers on the side, it will be difficult to win this war.

The combat officers sent by Shen Youlong were all old men who had participated in the defense of Shaoguan and had the experience of the previous battle, so at least they would not be so nervous.

On April 2, 1644, the armies of the two sides finally completed the first meeting in history, and this battle of Shaoguan is also known as the Second Battle of Shaoguan.

In this war, Shen Youlong invested a regiment and a democracy movement with a total number of about 5,000 people to face the Nanjing Imperial Court with 50,000 people.

Before the war, the two sides still had a polite greeting, which probably means that you surrender, we can spare you from dying, etc., but it can be imagined that this kind of polite greeting is equivalent to saying it in vain.

Since we can't talk about it, let's start fighting, both sides know that they will first use artillery fire to cover the operation, and this trick was learned from the Australians, whether it was the Manchu Qing or the Ming Dynasty, these peasant armies learned it.

Most of Fuwang's artillery is mainly earth artillery, with a short range and a small power of the shells, which often cannot hit the positions of the two Guangzhous, and the artillery of the two Guangzhous are all imported from Australia, with a long range, directly reaching the opponent's position, causing a lot of damage to the opponent.

After the first round of shelling, the other side chose the most primitive crowd attack tactics, and the shells here were still firing and they rushed up, but for the large-scale crowd tactics, the new army of Liangguang had weapons to deal with, and the coffee mill machine gun was the best weapon to deal with this tactic.

The sudden sound sounded, and dozens of coffee mill machine guns in front of the position began the most brutal massacre, for a group of soldiers armed with cold weapons, this is a massacre, a massacre with no suspense at all, although it is very cruel, but it must be done, I believe that the Nanjing Imperial Army will do this if it stands on the position of Liangguang.

The extremely strong shock of the coffee mill brought too much fear to the attacking soldiers, and they were too afraid to step forward as they watched the people who rushed to the front fall one by one, so they could only curl up on the ground and tremble. (To be continued.) )
