Chapter 376: Into the City

Seeing that more and more people are dying, Prince Gong understands in his heart that the general trend has gone, even if Jiang is still alive and should be resurrected, I am afraid that he will not be able to recover today's defeat, although he has a hundred unwilling and a thousand unwilling, but the facts are already in front of him, so he can't help but bow his head, and he can't hesitate anymore.

In the end, he could only turn his heart sideways, wave his big hand, and order to withdraw!

It's a pity that his withdrawal came at the wrong time.

The Qing army, which had been blown up, heard this word, as if they heard the sound of heaven, and ran away, scrambling one by one, for fear of falling behind, the usual rules, the façade or something, all were left behind, and there was only one thought in their hearts, run quickly, and it was important to save their lives.

Prince Gong still wanted to let the army retreat in an orderly manner, who knows, this order, the retreat turned into a rout, a strict military discipline, sworn to defend the city of the loyal army, in the blink of an eye became a blind stream, cowards, scuds, etc.

Looking at the chaotic Qing army, Prince Gong was dumbfounded, and he was even more at a loss, he roared wildly, trying to stop the chaotic situation, and wanted to let the Qing army, which had been in chaos, get out of the rout, but his roar was ruthlessly drowned in the sound of "run" in the sky.

Yes, it's all this time, who will care about him whether he is a prince or not, it is the right thing to take care of himself.

Prince Gong exhausted all methods, but still failed to contain the rout, although he is superior in wisdom, far superior to ordinary people, but also a first-class master of governance, the leader is really not good, now the scene is chaotic, he is more than enough and not enough, the only thing to do is to watch this elite division scattered.

He was shocked, angry, and helpless, all kinds of tastes came to his heart, and in the end, he could only sigh in his heart, the Qing Dynasty, it's over.

Now, the rout of the army can no longer be counted on, Prince Gong is most concerned about the emperor's safety, has the emperor withdrawn, thinking of this, Prince Gong shivered smartly, yes, is the emperor gone, a qiē sign shows that the emperor has not left, this is a great event, the more Prince Gong thinks about it, the more anxious he becomes.

Thinking of this, he didn't care about the rout of the army, and immediately rushed towards the palace, he wanted to persuade Xianfeng to leave quickly, and he couldn't delay any longer. He has made up his mind, if Xianfeng does not leave again, he will die to admonish, no matter what method is used, he must persuade Xianfeng to leave this time, the Qing Dynasty can do without Prince Gong, or even without anyone, but not without the emperor, if there is no emperor, the Qing Dynasty will not only lose the country, but also extinct the species.

Prince Gong would never allow such a thing to happen.

Prince Gong rushed towards the palace with extraordinary determination.

Standing outside the city to command the siege of Bao Ping'an and Li Hongzhang, looking at the shocking scene caused by the thunder on the city, their hearts trembled in unison, they also felt incredible, completely shocked by the power of the thunder, the power of this thing is not inferior to the power of the cannon, and the psychological fear caused by it is far better than the cannon brings.

"Strategist, this, this, whatever..."Bao Ping'an's little heart was still pounding, and so far, his mind hadn't turned a little.

The psychological gap that this incident brought to him was not a little bit of a star, it was definitely super big.

"yes, that's a surprise." Li Hongzhang's foul language was like a dream, which made Bao Ping'an, whose mentality was slightly out of control, even more surprised.

Bao Ping'an turned his face to look at Li Hongzhang's somewhat demented expression, his face trembled involuntarily, his mouth grinned, and the corners of his mouth quietly pulled up a subtle arc.

"Strategist, the things in this firearms battalion are very powerful, we used to be really blind." Bao Ping couldn't help but sigh.

Can you not sigh, this effect, this effect, far beyond their imagination, I knew this, they are still so hard to fight, as long as there is a firearms battalion, artillery bombardment, thunder bombardment, it must be indestructible, invincible, all problems have been solved.

"That's right, when this battle is over, I'll have to ask the marshal to get more of this kind of stuff, such a good thing, if you don't make full use of it, it would be a pity." This incident touched Li Hongzhang a lot, and his heart, which was already a little turbulent, was completely stirred.

His interest in firearms grew.

"Strategist, this must cost a lot of money, right, don't you worry about money?" Bao Ping said in a playful tone.

He was obviously reminding Li Hongzhang that this thing was definitely expensive.

"General, didn't you say that you want to raise money to buy cannons, then even this thunderbolt will be done together." How could Li Hongzhang not know the truth of the deep meaning of Bao Ping'an's words.

"A military advisor is a military advisor, and he deserves a good calculation." Bao Ping'an smiled a little treacherous.

"That's what I learned from the general." Li Hongzhang said with a smile.

Bao Ping'an grinned, feeling a little speechless, when did this military advisor become a scoundrel.

He shook his head and said with a smile: "The words of the military advisor are a bit reasonable, then you have to work harder, I don't have much money, and when the time comes, I will have to count on you."

"You old slippery head, you want to take advantage of loopholes, don't you, you want to be a deserter, don't you, then I can sue you, in a word, there is no door." Li Hongzhang stretched out his fingers, first condensed the air and nodded a little to keep it safe, and finally put it in the air and shook it.

"Strategist, look at what you said, what kind of person do you say to me, am I that kind of person, I promise you here that I will definitely advance and retreat with you, but you also know that no matter what aspect you say, you must be more popular than me, so well, you still have to carry this big head." Bao Ping'an first came to a few words with great words, and finally said a little shamelessly.

"General, Lao Li, I have really seen your true heart today, you are not at all like the honest gentleman I imagined, a little treacherous." Li Hongzhang didn't plan to let go of the peace like this, he still had to hit him, and he definitely couldn't let him get cheap and sell well.

"Strategist, you're complaining about me, I'm a really good person." Bao Ping'an felt a little resentful, didn't he just tell the truth, why didn't Li Hongzhang understand it.

"Good man, that's right, what a hypocritical person." Li Hongzhang showed an exaggerated expression and said with a smile.

"Strategist, what do you want me to say, you only believe it, okay, it's still the same sentence, Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and the people will see the hearts of the people for a long time, and the days of working together between you and me are still long, you will still understand me after all." Bao Ping'an let out a long sigh and said in a resentful tone.

Resentful? No, this is too funny, can the word resentment be used to protect peace, Li Hongzhang feels funny when he thinks about it. He really hasn't seen it yet, and Bao Ping An also has a humorous and funny side.

Jokes aside, can't go too far, it's time to get back to business.

"Alright, General, the joke is over, depending on the situation, we have to enter the city." Li Hongzhang looked at the battlefield in the distance.

The east gate of the city has been knocked open by the Taiping army's crash car, the army is rushing in, the situation on the city has been completely controlled by the Taiping army, the passage into the city has been completely opened, do not enter the city at this time, let alone when.

Bao Ping'an is deeply convinced of Li Hongzhang's words.

He looked at Li Hongzhang, nodded heavily, and then waved his big hand and said, "Enter the city!"

With the fall of the order to keep peace, the army that was lying in ambush outside the city gates, and gathered at the city gates, began to follow the besieging army and poured into the city.

Bao Ping'an and Li Hongzhang followed, and also slowly entered the city with the army.

Stepping on the land of the capital of the Qing Dynasty, at this moment, the hearts of Bao Ping'an and Li Hongzhang are not calm, but the mood of the two is very different, Bao Ping'an is happy, very happy, Li Hongzhang is complicated, not ordinarily complicated.

For Bao Ping'an, the fierce general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, this is unprecedented, and it is the first time that he has entered the imperial capital of the Qing Dynasty in the form of a victor for the first time.

And Li Hongzhang's mood is very complicated, just imagine, what was his previous identity, the chief staff of Zeng Guofan, the commander of the dignified Qing Army, what is it now, the staff officer of the Taiping Army, although he has only changed places, and the role he plays has not changed substantially, but can these two identities be the same? Obviously, no, and it's very different.

If you want to talk about this Jingshi, Li Hongzhang doesn't know how many times he has been here, but all the previous times add up, it is not as good as this time to make him so mixed, he used to be a worshipper who knelt on the ground, but now he is a high winner, can this be the same.

However, one thing is certain, that is, he Li Hongzhang's path is the right choice. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (biquge.info) to vote for recommendation and monthly pass. Your support is my biggest motivation ......)
