Chapter 505: Hands-on Soon
Wang Feng's first attack on Tianjing was because the Fu sisters were about to be accepted as Wang Niang by the two kings of Hong Yang, and he saved his own woman and occupied the moral high ground, even if Shi Dakai was the wing king, he couldn't say half of it.
It's just that if it is a sudden attack on Tianjing, with Wang Feng's origin and subordinate generals, it will indeed bring some adverse consequences, but if there is civil strife in Tianjing, it is another matter, in this regard, Shi Dakai understands very well.
At this moment, Shi Dakai's heart is full of pain, intellectually, he agrees with the path of the Democratic Alliance, democracy and the legal system have brought order, efficiency, and prosperity, which is the only way for China to get out of poverty and weakness, but emotionally, on the one hand, he cherishes his friendship with Wang Feng, on the other hand, he is even more reluctant to worship with Hong Xiuquan, Yang Xiuqing and others!
Shi Dakai is the king of wings, is Hong Xiuquan's younger brother, at this point, and Li Kaifang, Lin Fengxiang and other generals are very different, the latter is just a leading general, when the way is different, when the benefits are not in line, it is understandable to put into the command of Wang Feng, who has the grace of saving his life, he has worshiped with Hong Xiuquan, the ancients attached great importance to worship, how could he abandon Hong Xiuquan to join Wang Feng?
Seeing that Shi Dakai was silent, Zhang Suimou secretly sighed and said, "Your Highness, if you start a war with the Democratic Alliance, what are your chances of winning?" ”
Shi Dakai suddenly shook slightly!
Shi Dakai's combat object is the Qing army's green battalion and local regimental training, the guns are poor, morale is low, military discipline is loose, and the victory is not worth mentioning.
And the opponent of the Democratic Alliance Army is in addition to the Green Battalion regimental training. There are also Mongolian iron cavalry, the forbidden army in Beijing, and Western powers such as Britain, France and the United States. The different levels of the opponents determine the different levels of the two armies.
Suddenly, Shi Dakai realized. Whether he admits it or not, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's demise has become irreversible, not only because of the strength of the Democratic Alliance, but also because of the irreconcilable contradictions between the three kings of Heaven, the East and the North.
In the future, no matter who wins the final victory, it will be a heavy blow to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the soldiers under the command of the kings will be corrupt and corrupt, and the people are afraid like snakes and scorpions.
The friendship with Wang Feng is not considered. Just for the sake of the people of Huainan and his own soldiers, Shi Dakai will never dare to start a war lightly, even if he bears the notoriety of disloyalty and injustice!
Shi Dakai once naively had an ostrich mentality, but when the camp in Jiangnan and Jiangbei was broken, and Yang Xiuqing's arrogance could no longer be controlled, he could no longer escape, and he had to face the reality of the Taiping Heavenly Strife!
"Alas~~" Shi Dakai sighed heavily, and asked with difficulty: "The King of Heaven is in trouble, do you sit idly by?" ”
Zhang Suimou shook his head: "My subordinates understand His Highness's feelings. If you sit idly by, Your Highness will feel guilty for the rest of your life, and when turmoil is inevitable, the only way to do so is to put it down quickly. Minimizing the losses and adverse effects is the only way to go, and it may leave the NLD forces without an excuse to intervene. ”
"Go on!" Shi Da moved happily and gestured.
Zhang Suimou said again: "The king of the north and the king of the east do not share the sky. Now that there is a secret edict from the Heavenly King, he will definitely lead the army to Tianjing. His Royal Highness can have someone to monitor the Yangtze River, once the soldiers and horses of the North King are discovered. The elite can be sent to follow behind, but they will not enter Beijing for the time being, wait and see the chaos, no matter which side has the upper hand, immediately help, so that the turmoil can be quelled as quickly as possible, however, I am afraid that it will have an impact on the reputation of His Highness, please consider it carefully. ”
This is regardless of position, Yang Xiuqing has the upper hand, Shi Dakai helped Yang Xiuqing, Hong Xiuquan and Wei Changhui had the upper hand, and Shi Dakai helped the two kings of Hong Wei, this will indeed give people the illusion of looking at the dishes on the plate, but in addition, what else can be done, compared to the great cause of the kingdom of heaven, the old brothers died in a large number of civil strife, what is the gain by sacrificing their own reputation?
Shi Dakai did not hesitate, and gritted his teeth: "Okay, just do as you say." ”
This is the righteousness regardless of the subtleties, it is the real burden of forbearance and humiliation, Zhang Suimou bowed deeply from the bottom of his heart, and his heart was full of admiration.
"Alright, you go down." Shi Dakai waved his hand weakly, the whole person looked very depressed, for him, it was not easy to make such a decision, it meant that he betrayed the Heavenly King, he was only for the entire Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
Zhang Suimou's lips rolled, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, arched his hand, and walked away quickly.
Another day later, Wei Changhui, who was stationed in Fuzhou, Jiangxi, received the confidence of the king, he was eager for this day, without the slightest hesitation, he lit up 3,000 fine horsemen on the same day, and galloped towards Nanjing in the starry night.
A storm is brewing, but time will not slow down for one person, and it is already late at night on September 1 in the midst of intense preparations by all parties.
In the small valley where Wang Feng first ambushed Fuxing, although it was pitch black, there was no other sound except for the chirping of cicadas and insects, but the first division of the First Army of the Democratic Alliance Army was reduced to zero, and lurked in one after another, led by Hong Xuanjiao himself, in addition to Wang Feng and Yang Shuijiao.
Now the seven standing armies of the Democratic Alliance Army, all the soldiers are full, the first army is the trump card unit of the Democratic Alliance Army, the equipment is naturally the most sophisticated, each platoon is equipped with a 60 mortar, the whole division has two infantry brigades, a total of 162 mortars, the other is the artillery brigade, this is the first artillery brigade below the divisional combat unit in the whole army, equipped with a total of 96 artillery pieces, considering the concealment and mobility of the action, all the artillery and the brother combat units temporarily replaced with 75 small mountain guns.
Don't look at the small caliber of the 75 Xiaoshan gun, but the rate of fire can reach eight rounds per minute, and the maximum firing range is 4,000 meters, which is enough for the battle against Nanjing.
Speaking of which, although the First Army is known as the ace army, after taking down Su Song Taichang, the record of winning is almost nothing, which gives people a feeling that the name is not worthy of the name, watching the brother troops continue to win one victory after another, the soldiers of the First Army are anxious, they urgently need a battle to prove their strength.
Leaning against the mountain wall, Yang Shuijiao was playing with a dog's tail, looking preoccupied, Hong Xuanjiao couldn't help but persuade: "Shuijiao, don't worry, your eldest brother is brave and strategic, and has been planning for many years, and it is not so easy for Wei Changhui, Qin Rigang and others to take his life." ”
Yang Shuijiao shook her head and said: "You don't have to comfort me, I don't know the person of the eldest brother, he is stubborn and self-serving, he thinks that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, and others dare not say anything because of his power, but he will think that he has submitted to him."
Besides, Qin Rigang had already led 10,000 elite soldiers to secretly approach Nanjing the day before yesterday, and there was no defense in Nanjing City, although we didn't know what was going on in Wei Changhui, but Wei Changhui would never give up this opportunity, how could I not worry? ”
Hong Xuanjiao also knew that Yang Shuijiao was telling the truth, so she sighed and stopped persuading.
Not long after, a member of the special combat team suddenly rushed over, panting and said, "Commander-in-chief, Wei Changhui has already led 3,000 troops into Nanjing from the Nanyuhuatai City Gate. ”
Wang Feng stood up and waved violently: "The whole army will set off immediately, there is no need to hide your whereabouts!" (To be continued......)
