"Boom ......" the cannon roared under the city of Nanjing.

The Qin army has already slaughtered this city of special political significance in China. Liu Kunyi didn't come back!

Liu Kunyi, who fled into Anhui with four or five thousand remnants of soldiers, was already a tiger with no teeth and no claws, so he was not to be afraid. But as the governor of Liangjiang, he did not do his best to rescue Nanjing when Nanjing was attacked, but squatted in Anhui without moving, which in itself is very interesting!

Anhui's soldiers and horses are more obedient to Li Hongzhang's orders, although the governor Wenge is a Manchurian, this does not mean that the Anhui army is the imperial court. This is just Li Hongzhang selling a face to the Manchus! Besides, Anhui Province has never had a governor, and like Shandong, Henan, and Jiangxi provinces, the governor and the governor have one shoulder. But now a figure like Zhang Yao is staying in Anqing as an envoy.

The latter's Songwu army was recruited by Li Henian, the governor of Henan, and Song Qing's Yijun were both Yujun Xiangyong, and they were not meant to be a line of Huaijun, but in fact, Zhang Yao was in office in Anhui all the year round, and he directly or indirectly received much favor from Huaijun, and he was definitely inclined to Huaijun.

Anhui is Li Hongzhang's Anhui, and Anhui is Huaijun's Anhui. However, in terms of face work, Li Hongzhang did a particularly bright job.

Anhui hoarded 20,000 Huai troops, plus nearly 10,000 Songwu troops, standing still, sitting back and watching Nanjing endanger and Nanjing's loss, which is really interesting.

And even more interesting is the Jiangning general Mu Teng'a. This great talent set a precedent for the first time when the Eight Banners were stationed in the army and retreated. Mu Teng'a knew the situation in Nanjing, and against the Qin army with this little soldier and horse in his hand, it was simply a mantis arm as a chariot. Mu Teng'a didn't want to be crushed into powder by the rolling wheels, so he took the initiative to send someone to lead the old and weak women and children of the Eight Banners in Nanjing City to transfer to Anhui, and he fought to block the attack.

At the beginning of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, when Mu Teng'a ran to Wuhu, Anhui Province, there were still 16,700 Eight Banners New Army in his hand, and the 3,000 Han troops in addition to the Eight Banners New Army were left with 1,000 strong people.

The loss of Nanjing in the Manchu Qing Dynasty also represents the essence of Jiangsu, southern Jiangsu, which completely fell into the palm of Liu Xian's hands. If the new Qin is more radical, Liu Xian can announce to the whole world in a big way - he will move the capital to Nanjing. If that's the case, it will really bring a big shock to the whole world.

Zhu Yuanzhang was the capital in Nanjing, and in the era when the 'Huayi' dispute began, Zhu Ming was also the only example of unifying the north from the south, and Nanjing City has an extremely special significance. This is completely different from the retreat of the capital to Nanjing during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

……

It was also the day when Mu Teng'a ran to Wuhu in the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, Liu Xian led the army to worship the Ming Tomb very respectfully.

Of course, his subordinates also used it as a literary tribute for him. This article is not only to worship Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, but also to the people of the world. In this article, Liu Xian not only quoted an old saying in "Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang Fengtian Seeks Mengyuan Northern Expedition": Although they are not of the Chinese race, they are born in the same heaven and earth, and there are people who can know etiquette and righteousness and are willing to be subjects of the Celestial Empire, which is no different from the people of Zhongxia. Therefore, I would like to inform you that it is advisable to know. There are two words 'Celestial Empire' sandwiched in the middle. He also mentioned for the first time that 'the Yangyi subverted and the Celestial Empire fell', and for the first time expressed his grand wish of 'suppressing the aliens and comforting the spirits of my ancestors', 'respecting the mandate of heaven, opening the Quartet, saving the people from misery, and restoring the majesty of the Heavenly Empire'.

"Ta Kung Pao" and other newspapers published the whole article as soon as possible, and within half a month, the content of this memorial article spread all over the country, as well as to Japan, North Korea, Vietnam and other places.

Emperor Duc and other rulers of the Ruan Dynasty liked to look at the sacrificial text. Liu Xian's ambitions, which he did not hide in the text, would only make the Ruan Dynasty, a small court that had been tied to the New Qin warship, rejoice. And the Tokyo government, which still has deep ambitions in their hearts, and because of Nogi Noshinori's change in Fuzhou, which triggered a new round of anti-China surge, is gritting its teeth and looking forward to their foreign father expressing anger at Xin Qin.

But the British were silent on this matter, Germany and the United States were silent, France did not even have a diplomat in China, and other small countries did not have the share and strength to speak.

This disappointed a bunch of people in Tokyo!

As for North Korea, because the little devil was beaten up by Liu Xian, the signing of the "Ganghwa Treaty" in 1876 in the original historical process no longer exists. Liu Xian didn't have the heart to look at North Korea at all, but because of the mobilization of troops against little Japan, the wheel of Korean history was lifted.

The current North Korean Concubine Min relatives group continues to be in power, and the Dayuanjun group, which has returned to the political arena, has always been looking for gaps to challenge, two males fighting, two tigers fighting, it seems that there is no difference from ten years ago.

Without the external threat from Japan, North Korea continued to close itself off from the rest of the country and live its own small life.

Of course, this will certainly not last long.

When the situation in China changes, not only Japan, but also North Korea will be included in the eyes of the Western world in Europe and the United States.

At least the Russians have already begun to operate in Seoul.

……

After paying homage to the Ming Tomb, Liu Xian did not continue to stay in Nanjing, nor did he cross the Yangtze River to Yangzhou. Instead, he led the army to Wuhu and Dangtu, and his purpose was obvious, to take all the areas south of the Yangtze River in Anhui.

"Ready! Fire! ”

Huo Guangcheng waved his arm slightly, and after fifty cannons, he opened fire.

"Tom! Tong! ”

"Boom! Rumble! ”

The Qing troops on the opposite side were thrown into disarray after the first salvo, and before they could organize effective resistance, the second round of artillery fire rushed over. Ten rounds of rapid fire in a row, the black smoke that rushed into the sky wrapped in the stump fragments of the Qing soldiers flew into the sky, and the violent explosion was deafening.

The garrison regiment and 2,000 soldiers arrived in Dangtu by boat, and they came too quickly, and the Qing army here was caught off guard at all.

Ten rounds of rapid fire had completely destroyed the morale of the Qing army, and at this time, the Qing infantry with thousands of troops was a group of panicked rabbits.

"This group of little devils meets Lao Tzu, count you unlucky! Trumpet! Let the Forwards attack—"

Huo Guangcheng stood up, looked at the head of Dangtu City with a telescope, and saw some Qing soldiers on the positions outside the city stumbling towards Dangtu County.

"Didida, Didida........."

The trumpeter blew the trumpet of the charge, and a shout suddenly sounded from the Qin army's position.

"Kill-" The soldiers of the advance team, who had long been unable to hold back, immediately rushed towards the Qing position with their rifles loaded with bayonets, and at the same time, the heavy machine guns and mortars responsible for covering the infantry charge also opened fire immediately.

There were not many gunshots, and the white-knuckle melee battle immediately began in the Qing army's position. Although some Qing soldiers tried to put up a stubborn resistance, the revolvers and grenades in the hands of the standing team soon taught them what 'melee fire support' was. In just a few dozen minutes, the Qing army's position completely fell into the hands of the advancing team. These ten minutes of close combat completely disintegrated the fighting spirit of the Qing soldiers, and all the remaining Qing soldiers who did not die obediently surrendered, and the battle ended.

This battle was one of the few battles in which Huo Guangcheng personally led the troops. His style was very ferocious, and as soon as the forward team took the out-of-town position of Dangtu, the shells fell on the city of Dangtu County. An hour later, when all four sides of Tu County were angry, the red flag symbolizing the Qin army!

For a total of five days, Wuhu, Tongling, Guichi, and Dongliu went down in turn. The Qin army relied on the advantage of ships to take the area along the river, and it was really not ordinary fast.

If Mu Teng'a hadn't seen the opportunity early, he would definitely have been covered in the south bank to make dumplings.

At the same time, the Jiangxi part also sent a partial division from Fuliang into Huizhou, so in just three days, Chizhou, Ningguo, Huizhou, Guangde, three prefectures and one state, depending on the message.

More than a dozen books were sent to Huo Guangcheng's hands. Although some of these magistrates went away after writing the letter of surrender. But Liu Xian had just walked to Wuhu, and the whole war was over. Half of November is not over yet!

And from this day on, the Qin army also mastered half of the Yangtze River. From the Jiujiang River downward, the river was all controlled by the Qin army. The war in Jiangsu also stopped in Huai'an, and the war in Anhui and Jiangxi ended. He holds the fleet in his palm, and the benefits of this great river can only be the 'benefit' of the Qin army, not the Qing army. Four mosquito ships, six steam gunboats, and two thousand-ton gunboats, such strength is not at all what Li Chengmou's Yangtze River naval division can resist. As early as when the Qin army traced the river up the river to take Nanjing, Li Chengmou, who had been showing off his might in Poyang Lake, ran out of Poyang Lake and retreated directly to Dongting like a rabbit that saw a hunting dog.

Therefore, although the Qin army's troops on the Yangtze River line were not abundant, Liu Xian was not worried at all that the situation on this side would be repeated. The places he is worried about now are Zhejiang and Hunan.

How exactly does Zuo Zongtang plan to surrender? Then how should Zeng Guoquan, Liu Rong and others in Changsha be willing to return to obedience?

Zhejiang has been silent for half a year, and Liu Xian can see that the Hunan battlefield has been fought so far, and the Chu army and the Hunan army definitely have no intention of accompanying the Manchu Qing to the funeral. But these two groups of people did not take the initiative to surrender, Liu Xian sent a letter and sent someone to contact, but they did not give an accurate response, do you say Liu Xian is annoyed?

"Wang Shang is worried that after Zeng Guoquan, Liu Rong and others died in Changsha, Huxiang Shilin will react violently?" Wang Minyun, who was new to Liu Xian, saw Liu Xian's thoughts at a glance. He stroked his beard and smiled, "The king is too worried. Zeng Guoquan himself was very disrespectful to the Qing court, Liu Rong was not an unwise person, and Guo Songtao had already been disheartened. The stalemate in Changsha did not last long, and perhaps they were just waiting for an excuse. "People want to be faced. For more than 20 years, the Huxiang School has supported this country for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now it is going to be abandoned, and the bare-bones surrender unabashedly, and the scholars can't do it.

"Zeng Guoquan once served as the governor of Shanxi, although he was transferred to Hunan, but he has always been concerned about the drought in Shanxi.

"Is it just Zuo Zongtang...... "R1152
