Chapter 159: Another Victory

Hearing that there were only 3,000 thieves, Duolonga 'Ha Luha' smiled, and his heart was excited and excited: "I thought there were tens of thousands of people in the short hair, but I didn't expect that there were only 3,000 people, no more, no less!" Congratulations to the general, this time the annihilation of 3,000 short hairs, the emperor will inevitably be happy, and it is not impossible to rank among the military aircraft in the future! ”

Seeing that the short-haired came to send him to death, Du Xing'a was also very happy, and his mood suddenly became cheerful: "Hubei Governor Hu Linyi only laid down a Hukou County, and it was rumored that it was boiling, for fear that others would not know how powerful he was, thinking that there were many anti-thieves in that small Hukou County, and now we can wipe out more than 3,000 people in the short-haired county, which is the real victory." ”

"The order went down, and the whole army accelerated forward, and each person was rewarded with five taels of silver. Don't let this shorthair run away! At that time, everyone will be promoted and make a fortune together. Seeing that the army was still weak, Duxing had to tempt it.

Wang Guocai frowned and reminded: "General, be careful of deception, yesterday the spies said that there were tens of thousands of people, how could there be only three thousand today?" ”

Duxing said: "If it weren't for your desire to fight, I would have left you in Tianjia Town, how can you be suspicious now, is it afraid of war?" ”

Wang Guocai's face was ugly, and a good heart was regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs.

Zhong Lin called several battalion commanders over and asked in a low voice: "The Qing army is seven or eight miles ahead, but I will win the battle, I have never fought this defeat, what do you think?" ”

Several battalion commanders shook their heads in unison with sad faces.

Zhong Lin pretended to be angry and said, "You guys want to think about it! In less than half an hour, the Qing army arrived, and it didn't look like it when it happened, and it was a mistake for the general. We will all be punished! ”

One of the battalion commanders couldn't stand it and shouted: "What are you afraid of." Let's kill it, with our 3,000 people, we are still afraid that the Qing army will not succeed. Also ......"

Zhong Lin was really angry, and said angrily: "Shut up! You dare to question the strategy set by the army commander, don't think that if you are a member of the Eighth Army, I will not dare to punish you! ”

An elderly battalion commander immediately persuaded: "The regiment commander is angry, Xiao Zhangzi is also young and vigorous, his family is in Shaanxi, he was slaughtered clean when he was cleared by the Qing army, he talks about revenge all day long, and seeing the Qing army is like an enemy meeting." ”

"And what do you say you should do?" Zhong Lin squinted at Xu Erduo, the commander of the third battalion who loves to be a good man.

Xu Erduo sneered: "If you want me to say that this battle is defeated, just learn from the Qing army." Why don't we try it? ”

Zhong Lin frowned: "But every time our army fights with the Qing army, they run when they see our banner, and they only dare to fight with our army with the city wall. ”

The three battalion commanders nodded in unison.

Although Du Xing'a is a Manchurian, he has also read a few military books, and when he saw the military formation a mile ahead, he thought of the short-haired military might, and he had no bottom in his heart. Looking back at the people he brought, as if he was cheering himself up.

Dutong Duolonga swallowed his saliva and whispered, "General, should we send an army to test it?" ”

I turned around and saw the dense soldiers under my command. Duxinga regained his courage and rolled his eyes at Dorona's advice. He said loudly: "Dutong Duolonga led 3,000 men to outflank from the left flank, and the general army kingdom led 3,000 troops to outflank from the right flank. General Ben personally led his army to kill the enemy from the front. ”

"Kill"

Jiangning's general Du Xing'a issued an order, and the army had just been killed. He saw a scene that stunned him: the fierce short-haired thief in his mind turned around and ran, and flags and weapons were scattered all over the ground.

It doesn't matter so much to "kill" Duolong Acai, leading 3,000 people to pursue desperately, such a good opportunity, it would be a pity to let it go.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the kingdom hurriedly rode to Du Xing'a, looking anxious: "General, the situation is not right, how can the thief escape?" We still reorganize our army for the time being, find out the enemy's situation, and then pursue it. ”

Du Xing'a was suspicious and surprised, seeing the generals under his command rushing forward with a scream, he couldn't stop it even if he wanted to, and said to Wang Guocai: "Jintang, you lead the army to press the formation in the rear, I will rush to kill for a while, if there is really an ambush in the short hair, you immediately step forward to respond." ”

Wang Guocai nodded repeatedly.

This kingdom is an outlier, he is a Yunnan person, because of the martial arts and into the official career, even to suppress the people's riots, less than a few years to be promoted to the capital, and later by Xiang Rong at a glance, transferred to Guangxi to fight, every time with the Taiping army in the battle are not afraid of death, soon was promoted to general, because of the gap with the fierce general Leslie Cheung, transferred back to Yunnan from the Jiangnan battalion, passing through Hubei, was favored by Wu Wenrong, the governor of Huguang, and before the position was arranged, Wu Wenrong died in battle, the new governor of Huguang Guan Wen also took a fancy to him, let him lead two thousand green battalion soldiers, This made him really rich, recovered Wuchang, fought Jingzhou, fought Jinkou, attacked Hanyang, and did not fall in battle, and earned enough face for the unlearned and greedy official documents, so the kingdom went all the way to the top, and was promoted to the general army in less than two years, and the green battalion soldiers under his command were the only troops in the green battalion that could compete with the Hunan army.

Chen Yucheng was overjoyed when he saw that the pursuing Qing soldiers had no formation, and with a gunshot, 5,000 people in ambush came out from all directions.

The Qing army was in the forefront of the pursuit of Duolong'a, seeing the menacing Han army in front, cowardly before the battle, with the Qing army behind to turn a corner and run back from the original road, for a time the Qing soldiers turned their horses on their backs, and knocked each other to the ground countless.

Du Xing'a saw the scene ahead from a distance, and scolded: "Bastard thing! Evacuate! There is an ambush for Shorthair! ”

The Qing army in the back turned around and ran, and Du Xing'a suddenly realized that he had given the wrong order, and he should let the Qing army in front withdraw first, standing in place at a loss.

"Kill" Chen Yucheng and Zhong Lin The two armies met and killed the retreating Qing army together.

"Surrender or Kill"

"Surrender or Kill"

The Han army was very familiar with this scene, and shouted slogans one after another, and the Qing troops who were lagging behind threw away their weapons for a while, squatted on the ground, and breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the Han army bypass on both sides.

Duolong'a, who ran back, saw that the general Du Xing'a was standing alone in a daze, and the pro-army around him was nowhere to be found, so he quickly dismounted, helped Du Xing'a to the horse, whipped it on the horse's buttocks, and followed behind on foot.

Wang Guocai looked anxious, just now he was still chasing and killing Shorthair, and in less than half an hour, he was chased and killed by Shorthair like a lost dog, and immediately ordered his soldiers and horses to line up in the same place, and sent some soldiers and horses to the front to pick up the routed soldiers to bypass from both sides, and escort them to the rear to reorganize from the reorganization.

"Thank goodness the general is fine!" Only then did the kingdom see that Du Xing'a came to the front single-handedly, helped Du Xing'a, who looked blank, off his horse, and comforted: "The general doesn't have to worry, it seems that our army has only lost three or four thousand people, and the remaining soldiers and horses still have the strength to fight." ”

Du Xing'a waved his hand, did not speak, sat on the grass alone, he didn't understand why the good man was so defeated, even if he was ambushed, he would not collapse at the touch of a button, a few months ago, he also led these soldiers and horses to fight in Jingzhou with long hair, how did he become like this as soon as he met Short hair?

Sweating profusely and panting, Duolonga came to Du Xing'a: "General, you have nothing to do, right?" (To be continued......)
