Chapter 517: A Tongue That Doesn't Rotten Three Inches
In fact, Zhao Liewen was worried that Hu Yihuang and Lai Hanying had not yet received the news that Hong Xiuquan had been killed, so he went to the net by himself, so he postponed it by one day, and sure enough, the next morning, there was a line of chaos in the Taiping army under Nanchang City, and it should have been the news of Nanjing's change of day.
Hu Lai and the others convened the generals to discuss urgently, some impulsive factions proposed to kill back to Nanjing to avenge Hong Xiuquan, and some rational factions proposed to rush to Nanchang and then support Wuhan, with Jiangxi Lianghu as the base, but Hu Yihuang and Lai Hanying were not as good as Yang Xiuqing, Wei Changhui or Shi Dakai in terms of prestige and appeal.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, only Hu Yihuang and Lai Hanying were left, their faces were full of melancholy, they were restrained by Wei Changhui, but they didn't expect Wei Changhui to say goodbye forever.
In Nanjing and its surrounding Taiping Army, no one dared to disobey Yang Xiuqing's orders, but with Wei Changhui's cultivation and development in the two lakes of Jiangxi, the foundation has become deeper and deeper, and Wei Changhui's influence has overshadowed Yang Xiuqing.
"The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is gone, the people's hearts are scattered, and the team is not easy to lead!" Hu Yihuang let out a long sigh.
Lai Hanying didn't answer, he looked eastward in a daze, his eyes were full of hatred, Hong Xiuquan died, which meant that his backstage had fallen, he really wanted to kill back to Nanjing to avenge Hong Xiuquan, but the remaining reason reminded him that he was not the opponent of the Democratic Alliance at all, not to mention that even if he strengthened his troops and horses, on the way back to Nanjing from Nanchang, the soldiers under his command also had the possibility of escaping, after all, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was gone, and neither he nor Hu Yihuang had the courage to take over the banner of the Kingdom of Heaven.
"What should we do?" Lai Hanying turned around and asked.
"What should I do?" Hu Yihuang muttered to himself, he didn't know.
"Report to the two marshals, and a person who claims to be a quiet monk asks to see him." That's when it happened. A pro-soldier called outside.
"Can you be a quiet monk?" Hearing this is a pseudonym, Lai Hanying said unhappily: "What person? Pretending to be a ghost. Missing! ”
"Wait!" Hu Yihuang stopped and said: "There are many strange people in the two lakes, even if they are vain and have no loss to me." Come, pass him over. ”
"Yes!" The soldiers walked away quickly.
Not long after, a young man in his twenties appeared in the tent, with a smooth forehead, a melon skin hat on his head, a beard under his chin, and a big braid with smooth and shiny oil, this is not only Lai Hanying, even Hu Yihuang is frowning. In their impression, the most people who dare to call themselves laymen are at least middle-aged people, and a young man who calls himself a layman is simply unbelievable.
The person who came was Zhao Liewen, who didn't care about Hu Lai's expressions at all, and arched his hand: "Zhao Liewen was ordered by the military department to greet Hu Shuai and Lai Shuai. ”
Hu Yihuang's face turned cold, and he said: "It turned out to be a Qing demon, so bold that he dared to come to my camp." Could it be that your life is long? ”
Lai Hanying also asked coldly: "My subordinates are defeated, what is the matter here?" ”
Zhao Liewen said unhurriedly: "Yesterday, Zeng Shuai may have been defeated under the two marshals, but time has changed, and today is no longer the case." ”
"You" Hu Yihuang was about to have a seizure. Lai Hanying also waved his hand to stop and asked, "What did Zeng Guofan send you for?" ”
Zhao Liewen said seriously: "Zeng Shuai has an order, ordering General Hu and General Zeng to lead their troops to surrender to our Qing Dynasty." Controlled by Zeng Shuai. ”
"Hahahaha~~" As if hearing the funniest joke in the world, Hu Yihuang and Lai Hanying laughed together. Tears of laughter came out.
Zhao Liewen looked at each other coldly.
Maybe it's because the parties don't cooperate, and it's not interesting to laugh. Hu Yihuang immediately smiled, and said with a calm face: "What an arrogant person, come here, drag it out and cut it!" ”
"Yes!" Two soldiers immediately rushed in outside the tent, dragged Zhao Liewen and walked out.
"Stop!" Zhao Liewen struggled and said: "Since I dare to come, I am not afraid of death, but I have a few words to say before I die, don't the two generals even dare to listen?" ”
Hu Yihuang and Lai Hanying glanced at each other, and Lai Hanying waved his hand: "Say!" I want to hear what you can say. ”
Zhao Liewen sneered: "The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has been wiped out by the Democratic Alliance, and the two of them and the tens of thousands of soldiers under their command are about to die, don't you know?" ”
Lai Hanying also sneered: "Nonsense, the morale of our army has been affected, Nanchang may not be able to conquer it in one go, but if it is not good, we can also return to the east of the division and join the Democratic Alliance, how can we say that we are dying?" ”
Zhao Liewen said disdainfully: "General Lai is Hong Xiuquan's eldest brother, then Wang Feng's methods are ruthless, and he is prone to raiding the family and destroying the clan, how can he spare you if he destroys the Hong family?" Besides, you are controlled by Wei Changhui, Wei Changhui and Yang Xiuqing are mortal enemies, and Wang Feng was born in the East Palace, married Yang Xiuqing's sister as a concubine, and fully accepted the name of Yang Xiuqing's rest of the department, according to the hatred between Yang and Wei, how could he accept Wei Changhui's old department?
Let's take a look at Qin Rigang's fate again, who is Qin Rigang? Neither Yang nor Wei, only loyal to Hong Xiuquan, but such a person, just slaughtered the Yang Mansion, was wiped out by the Democratic Alliance Army 10,000 people, in order to buy the loyalty of Yang Xiuqing, do you still naively think that the Democratic Alliance will accept you?
Maybe the two of you will think that they have tens of thousands of troops and are a strong force, and Wang Feng may let go of his personal enmity because of this, but I have to remind you that you think too highly of yourself, the Democratic Alliance Army occupies the four provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Shandong, with a population of nearly 100 million, if you go all out to recruit soldiers, it will be effortless to recruit a million troops in a short time, how can you care about tens of thousands of horses in your area?
There is another point, the military thinking of the Democratic Alliance Army is similar to that of Western powers such as Britain and France, and the combat method of your army is similar to that of our Qing Dynasty, which is incompatible with the Democratic Alliance Army. ”
Although they never thought of going to the Democratic Alliance, in their subconscious, there was still a trace of the idea of going to the Democratic Alliance again, but Zhao Liewen's analysis was very thorough and irrefutable, completely cutting off the subconscious of their defection to the Democratic Alliance.
Zhao Liewen had been observing the changes in the expressions of Hu Lai and the others, and immediately said: "It is only 1,200 miles from Nanjing to Nanchang, if the Democratic Alliance Army intends to recruit the two, they will definitely send people here as soon as possible, but a few days have passed, and the news has come over, where are the people of the Democratic Alliance?"
On the contrary, it was my family Zeng Shuai, after getting the news, immediately sent me to persuade him, which shows Zeng Shuai's sincerity, such as today's general trend, although there is no need to say more, I think the two of you can also understand, but I still want to be wordy, there is no eternal enemy in the world, only eternal interests, in the face of the aggressive strength of the Democratic Alliance, if you and I continue to fight, I am afraid that we will die without a place to bury, Zhao Mou's words are all here, if the two are still lost, Zhao Mou goes to Huangquan first! (To be continued......)
