Chapter 633: Xiangchu Siege Anqing (3)

In war, the most fearful thing is that your strategic purpose and strategic intention will be detected and guessed by the opponent, and according to your purpose and intention, many marching routes and means of war can be speculated.

At the strategic level, Shi Dakai is obviously a master who is proficient in this way, Zuo Zongtang's difficulty, he has also heard of it, after this actual fight, it is a little too much, the soldiers are surrounded by Anqing, if it is up to him to do it, it may be more secretive.

Even under the First World War, Anqing has seven or eight points of certainty, Zuo Zongtang's intentions are too obvious, too obvious intentions, different from Zuo Zongtang's previous tactics of avoiding the important and light, there must be demons when things go wrong, think about it carefully, in comparison with the battle situation in Jiangxi, this Zuo Zongtang is not incompetent.

Although the two battalions in Jiangnan and Jiangbei retreated under the power of the heavenly soldiers, Shi Dakai clearly knew that the two battalions in Jiangnan and Jiangbei were just a temporary retreat.

According to the tactics of the Qing Demon, I am afraid that after a short time, the Jiangnan and Jiangbei camps besieging Tianjing will be re-established again, and if the two major battalions are re-established and Anqing is lost again, the former advantages of the heavenly soldiers will no longer exist, and the entire Tianjing perimeter will be divided and surrounded again.

Anqing, the provincial capital of Anhui before, is naturally very important, if you look at Anqing alone, it is not too eye-catching, but today's Anqing, put in the overall situation of the kingdom of heaven, this status is extremely important.

In Shi Dakai's view, if the Qing Demon besieged Anqing, its threat was much higher than that of the Jiangnan camp based outside Tianjing City. Once Anhui and Jiangxi are not guaranteed, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are difficult to take. Double break the advantages of the two battalions in Jiangnan and Jiangbei. There will be no more zĂ i.

Anqing takes into account Anhui and Jiangxi in the north and south, and radiates the two lakes in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the east and west, and Xiang Yong of Zeng Guofan and Chu Yong of Zuo Jigao are the great enemies of the heavenly soldiers, and their combat power is stronger than Xiang Rong.

Once the two armies arrive in Anqing, whether they can hold this place or not, Shi Dakai is not completely sure, and looks at the slow movements of the two armies. Obviously, he didn't want to retreat immediately, Zuo Zongtang withdrew from Shucheng and Tongcheng in the past few days, but the soldiers were still the same, and he was afraid that he would not retreat casually.

Although Shi Dakai did not get much of the war report in Jiangxi, Zeng Guofan changed his habit of rushing forward in the past and fought steadily in Jiangxi, which is obviously not a good phenomenon.

The soldiers besieged Anqing and threatened Tianjing to solve the dilemma of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, except for Zeng Zuo. What worries Shi Dakai even more is the Qing court masters who planned this strategy behind the scenes, Xiang Lao Demon and Tuo Ming'a, who were trapped in Jiangnan and Jiangbei camps. is not a general's talent, so there is a three-year stability in Tianjing City.

This time, the prefectures and counties of Anhui and Jiangxi were not taken, and they had to join forces to encircle Anqing, and after thinking about it carefully, the threat to the heavenly kingdom was extremely great, and it was difficult to plan such a strategy if they were not a general.

The siege of Anqing is unstoppable, according to the combat strength of Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang, I am afraid that it is difficult for him to personally go out in a short period of time, and defeat the two people who are fighting steadily, now for the kingdom of heaven, although Jiangsu and Zhejiang are in sight, but the rout of the two battalions in the south and north of the Yangtze River is still a huge obstacle for the heavenly soldiers to enter Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Compared with Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the situation in Anhui and Jiangxi is undoubtedly much better, Tianjing can stand tall, and it is indispensable to the support of Anhui and Jiangxi before.

After occupying Anqing, Xiangyong and Chu Yong's water 6 coalition armies, three or five days, they can surround Tianjing, once they re-establish the Jiangnan camp of the old demon, whether this Tianjing can be held is also a question.

Since suffering the big loss of Yang Sange and losing Jiujiang, the battle situation of the heavenly soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, although it is reluctant, is not as good as before, Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, Xiang Lao Demon, plus a Yang Sange who is rooted in Jiujiang and does not move, if the four of them work together to guard Tianjing, it is as difficult as ascending to the sky!

Thinking of Yang Sange, Shi Dakai's face was also extremely bitter, which was the same as when he lost Jiujiang, from the three towns of Wuhan to the two states of Huanghu, first intercepting the water division and then destroying the 6th division.

The soldiers surrounded Anqing to block the river, and then turned around and used the 6th division to exterminate the heavenly soldiers in the two provinces of Anhui and Jiangxi.

"Could it be that Third Brother Yang is going to use soldiers again? The target is Tianjing? ”

Although he was talking to himself, but linking Yang Sange and Tianjing together, Shi Dakai couldn't help but have some hairs standing up, Yang Sange couldn't stop it, if he lost Tianjing, where would the heavenly soldiers go? Where will the kingdom of heaven go?

Third Brother Yang's methods, Shi Dakai was very disgusted, and he killed them all! Last time, the soldiers went out of the two lakes, the 6th division and the water camp, nearly 40,000, and less than 2,000 survived, most of these people are still the brothers of the water camp, Wei Jun's Ezhou 6th Division, the whole army was wiped out, Shi Xiangjiao's Huangzhou 6th Division, only one person survived, if the third brother Yang occupied Tianjing, I am afraid ......

Further down, Shi Dakai didn't dare to think about it, so he could only quickly repair the book to report the matter to Dongwang, since the Jiangnan and Jiangbei camps were broken, Dongwang's thoughts have also increased a lot, but I am afraid that now is not the right time, once Yang Sange moves, it will be a thunderous momentum, and it will be extremely difficult to block Yang Sange's soldiers with the heavenly soldiers of Anhui and Jiangxi.

Coupled with Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang, who are not very easy to deal with, once the pass of Anqing is gone, Tianjing will not be guaranteed!

Shi Dakai's idea is basically Yang Meng's purpose, the siege of Anqing, the progress is extremely smooth, Anhui's left mule acquaintance, in Shucheng, Tongcheng area, enough for Yang Meng not to suspect him in a short period of time, and Jiangxi's Zeng Disheng, too, changed the style of the past, began to in Jiangxi, slowly capture some of the Taiping Army's money and food.

What makes Yang Meng happiest is that Zeng Disheng's small actions in Hengzhou, expanding Xiangyong, although the scale of the expansion is only 5,000 people, but for Yang Meng, this is Zeng Disheng's attitude, with this, those small actions of the shadow are not necessary.

The camp in Jiangnan collapsed, and Lin Ji Li also received the batch of moldy grain, and in the next battle, I am afraid that the imperial court will be on pins and needles.

The rout of the Jiangbei camp could not stop the advance of the Taiping army, and Tuo Ming'a lost Yangzhou. The Taiping army opened the gateway to Jiangsu in the north; The Jiangnan camp retreated. Lishui was lost. Su Chang Erzhou is also in the pocket of the Taiping army; The iron triangle with Tianjing, Zhenyang and Suchang as the main structure has been formed, as long as Yang Xiuqing has a little force, it is enough for the imperial court to scratch its head.

Shi Dakai and Wei Changhui went west to Anhui and Jiangxi, I am afraid that Yang Xiuqing has the intention of usurping power, as long as Shi Xianggong does not have the intention of usurping power, he is bound to tell Yang Xiuqing the importance of Anqing. Tianjing's safety, Yang Xiuqing will not take it lightly, in this way, his hidden ambition can only be fermented for a while.

When Lin Jili and Yang Xiuqing are working at the same time, the imperial court is an ant on a hot pot, Zeng Disheng and Zuo Jigao are slow, and if they go to the third fold, I am afraid that it will be a natural situation.

Lin Ji Li, who was trapped in the Jinghai, received a batch of life-saving food from Lijiao. It's a little moldy, but it's better than being hungry. Tianjing's rescuers have not been heard many times, and the three of them also have resentment in their hearts, and the soldiers below are even more so, I don't know when there are also deserters among the heavenly soldiers.

Trapped in Jinghai for nearly two years, the northern deacon of the Church of Science and Religion has become a close friend of the three of them, not willingly, but has to do it, Monk Lingqin, repeatedly irrigated Jinghai, facing the encirclement of the Qing Demon Iron Bucket, the three of them can only cry out in vain in Jinghai City.

There is no fire. Medicine, artillery, want to break through the rammed earth wall around Jinghai and the Qing Demon camp, the difficulty is not ordinary, the two years of hard work, more than 20,000 elites of the Northern Expedition, even the death with running, more than 10,000 left, Jinghai City, but also really become a barracks with only men, up to Lin Ji Li, down to the ordinary Taiping soldiers, the eagerness to capture the Beijing division in the heart, has long been beaten by the cold of the north, to nowhere to be found.

I don't know when it began, Lijiao also spread quietly in Jinghai City, and the three of Lin Ji and Li also turned a deaf ear to this, after all, in the dead siege, whether it is Heavenly Father or Lijiao, it is no longer important, and food and warm clothes are the necessary materials for survival.

And in the hands of Lijiao, some of these things are, they can also safely bring these things into the Jinghai, from the beginning of entering Lijiao for a cotton coat, to now helping Lijiao to preach doctrines, many things have changed, all unconsciously.

"Three, no matter whether this breakthrough succeeds or fails, my master will keep the three of them safe.

As long as the three of them can break through the iron siege of Seng Lingqin and put some pressure on Tianjin Wei, at the beginning of summer next year, the three of them can leave Jinghai with the army! ”

In the face of the three of Lin Ji and Li, the northern deacon of the Church, he spoke at ease, and he did not have the consciousness of being in a dead circle at all.

"Deacon Yang, we have done what we should have done, and we have done what we shouldn't have done, it has been more than two years now, and there are some things that we can't talk about openly and honestly?

It doesn't matter if you sell yourself or take refuge with each other! The three of us can't afford to stay on for another two years, can we? ”

After two years of hard work, Lin Fengxiang has also become the brain of the three, the rescue of Tianjing is not good, the latest batch of reinforcements, or a year ago, they only hit the territory of Shandong and returned to the division, for the kingdom of heaven, Lin Fengxiang really has not much to worry about, two years in a desperate situation, many things can be figured out, why bother!

"As long as there are people in Jinghai City who believe in the Heavenly Father, this matter will not be done, and it is not the fault of the three of you, dispose of this group of people, otherwise it will ......"

glanced at Lin Ji and Li in the hall, and the Yang family steward did not hide it, and directly said what he should say.

"I'm already a Heavenly General, Deacon Yang, isn't it too much to do this?

The monk Gelin outside the city has surrendered several times, and we are not really people who have no way out! ”

Ji Wenyuan is still the one of the three who still has his heart towards heaven, Lin Fengxiang's attitude is very clear, except for the Qing Demon, whoever gives him a way to live will follow, and the twister in northern Henan has contacted the three of them, but unfortunately the twister can't get in, so he can only do it.

As for Li Kaifang, although he also has some ideas in his heart, for the unity of the three of them, he can only be two-faced.

"Huh...... Some people have some things, and it's time to make a decision, so let's meet again! ”

Since some people in the army believed in the religion of reason, for Lin Ji Li's Northern Expeditionary Army, this Yang Deacon has become a surviving person who has come and gone without a trace.

Before leaving, he glanced deeply at Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang, and as for Ji Wenyuan, he swept it slightly.

Soon after Deacon Yang left, Lin Ji and Li three people set up a fierce counterattack against the iron fence of Seng Lingqin, although Seng Greenqin boasted that he was the elite of his subordinates, but in order to protect the Tianjin Guard, the Mongolian iron cavalry and the elite of the Eight Banners under his command also paid thousands of casualties, and more than 3,000 backbones of the Taiping Army were killed, and the general of the Northern Expeditionary Army, Ji Wenyuan, died in battle.

Since the two battalions in Jiangnan and Jiangbei were broken one after another, the land of Gyeonggi was again threatened by long-haired thieves, and the battle situation around Tianjin Wei showed that the Mongolian iron cavalry and the elite of the Eight Banners of Seng Lingqin were difficult to block the offensive of the Taiping army, and Gyeonggi was in danger of falling at any time.

The four-color stick couldn't help but think about moving Rehe again, Gyeonggi was in danger here, and the shape of the Jiangnan side was also extremely bad.

The Jiangbei camp of Tominga was defeated, not only lost the camp that had been built for three years, but also lost Yangzhou by the way, Yangzhou was lost, and the door of Jiangsu was opened.

After the defeat of Xiang Rong's army, perhaps it was shame and indignation, or maybe it was exhaustion, and he died in the army, although the imperial court urgently transferred Anhui Governor Hechun to reorganize the Jiangnan camp, but it was difficult to hold Su Chang Erzhou in a hurry.

First of all, the two major battalions in Jiangnan and Jiangbei collapsed, and then Lin Ji Li's Northern Expeditionary Army moved, and the situation in the imperial court became extremely difficult. (To be continued......)
