Chapter 365: Cut off the wings

After Huang Xu consulted with Zeng Guofan and others, he decided to let Bao Ping'an lead the army to do this.

When he saw Huang Xu's first general, he called himself, and he was very grateful, he made up his mind that he would do a good job in this matter, and he could not let Huang Xu down, thus betraying his trust.

Before leaving, Huang Xu asked Li Hongzhang to go with him as a supervisor.

Although this is not a big deal, it can't be sloppy, and because it's a small thing, they have to do it well, they can't overturn in the gutter, be careful in everything, it's always right.

Bao Ping'an and Li Hongzhang took 50,000 horses and slaughtered the two wings of the Qing army.

When they arrived not far from the enemy, they discussed with Li Hongzhang about how they would fight the enemy next.

"Strategist, he has two armies there, and we will attack in two, what do you think?" Bao Ping'an said what he thought.

"Well, that's exactly what it should be, however, we can't attack hard, we can only take it skillfully, we can't use the same way to fight, we must feint all the way, take it all the way, so that the other party can't figure out the reality and reality, so that we can win in chaos and win by skill." Li Hongzhang's starting point is still to use strategy.

"Well, the military advisor is reasonable, since this is the case, you see if this will work, I will take a team of people to attack the Qing army on the left flank, and then Cui Min will lead another team of people to touch the Qing army on the right flank, as for who really attacks, who feints, please also ask the military advisor to take an idea." Bao Ping'an has always admired Li Hongzhang, and now everyone is doing errands together, and Bao Ping'an is basically a teacher for him.

"Have you figured out the enemy's troop deployment?" Li Hongzhang asked again.

"Yes, there are 20,000 on the left and 20,000 on the right." Keep safe and truthfully say.

"Well, we have an advantage in numbers, but the enemy is holding on to the fortification, and if we blindly attack, we will definitely suffer huge losses, and we must win it with skill." Li Hongzhang pondered for a moment and said with a smile.

"What is ingenuity?" Bao Ping'an's face was puzzled, quite puzzled.

Li Hongzhang smiled lightly, did not hurry, stretched out two fingers, and then said a paragraph, after hearing it, he was overjoyed, and even called for a clever plan, a clever plan! Then, immediately dispatch men and horses, just wait for dark, and then go to attack the village.

Guarding the left wing was a close subordinate general of Seng Lingqin, surnamed Wu.

That night, the Wu general was drunk with zero tincture, and then unclearly hugged the prostitute who was with the army, and went to sleep, leaving his cronies Qing will continue to eat and drink.

"Damn, it's so cold, if only I had a drink to drink." Soldier guarding the gate of the wall.

"Yes, it's a pity, the general said that alcohol should be banned in the army." Soldier guarding the gate of the wall.

"Prohibition of alcohol?" When Soldier A heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

Still forbidden? It's pure nonsense, it's drunk in there, isn't it a joke? However, they are all small soldiers, how can they be qualified to take care of the affairs of the generals, even if they are not convinced, they can only endure it.

"You say, if the Taiping Army comes to attack at this time, what will we do?" Soldier A laughed.

Listen to his tone, he's joking with Soldier B.

"Shhhh Soldier B was cautious, he looked around vigilantly, a little worried.

"This ghost weather, besides you and me, who else can there be, you are also a little cautious, there is nothing to do, don't worry." Soldier A grinned.

Soldier B rubbed his hands, then put his hands to his mouth and sighed, looked at the dark sky with blank eyes, and couldn't help shrinking his neck, and said, "The Taiping army has always been elusive, maybe it will really come?"

"It's good to come, we don't need to suffer this kind of crime anymore, I heard that the treatment of the Taiping Army is much better than ours, and the commander over there does not deceive people, if our side is the same, how good it would be!" Soldier A yearns for the authentic.

"If you think of beauty, you are not afraid of the general cutting off your head." Soldier B.

"Cut it, cut it, no one hears it now anyway." Soldier A doesn't care about the tunnel.

"Okay, don't dream of your spring and autumn season, stand on your post." Soldier B laughed.

"Hey, why don't we discuss it, you see, it's cold and people are sleepy, or so, I'll lie down first, and then change you later, how about it?" Soldier A's upper and lower eyelids had already begun to fight, so he consulted with Soldier B.

"Hey, you want to be lazy again, don't you?" Soldier B laughed.

"No, no, absolutely not, I'm really sleepy, besides, we brothers should help each other." Soldier A smiled and denied it.

"Okay, you can explain to me, I'm not your general, but it doesn't seem like a big deal to sleep so much, I think it's okay." Soldier B's words were very serious at first, but later, he changed his words and said something that moved Soldier A deeply and almost cried bitterly

"Okay, good brother, you're so good, say okay, I'll sleep first, I'll sleep with you later, look at it, how good this is, we have someone watching, someone sleeping, it's okay at both ends, it's good." Soldier A said happily.

After saying that, Soldier A held the spear in his hand and lay down with his clothes closed.

As soon as he lay down, Soldier B seemed to hear a rumbling thunder coming from the sky, and it was very fast, and at the end of the day, it was faster than a while.

Is it going to rain, Soldier B thought.

His thoughts flashed from his mind, and the earth suddenly trembled, and Soldier B was unstable on his footing, and almost fell, and he just wanted to scold, but Soldier A had already cursed.

"Bastard, it's so noisy, and you can't let people sleep."

After scolding, Soldier A slowly stood up, scratched his armpits, and said, "Brother, what's the matter, why is it so noisy?"

"Who knows, it seems to be raining." Soldier B.

"It's raining, then we have to hurry up and prepare rain gear, we can't get wet, or you wait here first, I'll go get two coats, it's always good to make some preparations." Soldier A looked at the Heavenly Dao.

"Okay, there you go." Soldier B said cheerfully.

Soldier A smiled at Soldier B, and was about to turn away, when he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and then saw blood flowing out, he couldn't help but shout: "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

His words. Only he could hear it.

When he had finished speaking, he fell to the ground and could not get up again.

Soldier B saw an arrow stuck in his chest and went straight into his chest.

Soldier B was so frightened that he stood there for a long time without reacting, when suddenly, two arrows flew and poof, poof, and plunged into his body, and he fell without even making a cry.

What a wretched man, Soldier B!

Just in the blink of an eye, the sound of shouting and killing was remembered at the gate of the village, and then the tide of troops poured into the Qing army's village.

"The Taiping Army, it's the Taiping Army, the Taiping Army is coming!" I don't know who shouted, and the sound was terrifying.

The Qing army was not vigilant at all, and there was no preparation in advance, and it took a while. The influx of Taiping soldiers chopping vegetables and melons killed a few people, and even some of them were cut off in their sleep, and the scene was a bit miserable.

This kind of battle is a completely one-sided situation, it didn't take long, the Qing army should have killed all the killing, and those who were not killed also disarmed and surrendered, and became a prisoner of the Taiping army, that is, the Qing general surnamed Wu, was also pulled up in his sleep, and unfortunately became a prisoner of the Taiping army.

When the general surnamed Wu saw the face of the Taiping Army, he was directly frightened and peed his pants, he stood in front of Bao Ping'an, it was honest like a grandson, Bao Ping'an asked, he answered, and even some Bao Ping'an did not ask, he said it clearly, clearly, it is really obedient and can no longer be obedient.

Bao Ping'an asked about the situation, and was very disgusted to let people take this nest of waste down, out of sight is clean.

According to the situation taken from the mouth of the general surnamed Wu and the seal letter and other tokens received from his residence, Bao Ping'an made the next step of arrangement.

Outside the right-wing village, a horse was speeding up, and with a swish, it stopped outside the gate of the village.

A soldier guarding the wall came out and asked, "Who is coming?" Please call your name, if not, shoot them with arrows."

This is said very smoothly, more domineering, and a little pressing, I can't see that this person is still hiding talent.

"Please report to General Wang, I am General Wu's personal colonel, the left wing of Dazhai is now surrounded and attacked by the Taiping army, the situation is critical, General Wu sent me to ask General Wang for help." After the person who came reported his home, he said the purpose of his visit.

"Why?" Upstairs asked again.

"I have here General Wu's personal token, as well as a handwritten letter from General Wu to General Wang, and General Wang will know it at a glance." The little colonel took some objects and a letter from his bosom, raised them in his hands, and shouted to the castle tower.

"Okay, you wait, I'll put down a hanging basket downstairs, you put things in the basket, if our general sees it and confirms that your thing is not fake, we will let you in." The people upstairs are cautious and authentic.

It seems that the defense of this right-wing Dazhai is much stronger than that of the left-wing Dazhai.

"Okay." The Colonel walked to the bottom of the castle and placed the objects in the basket.

"You're waiting downstairs." The upstairs man shouted downstairs before pulling the basket up.

The small school downstairs waited patiently.

After almost half a cup of tea, a person's head stretched out from the city tower again, and I saw that the face was full of smiles, and a humble voice said: "I'm sorry, we just did things according to the procedure, little brother, don't take it to heart, our general ordered to come down, please go and see him."

"I know the way, I know the way, don't blame, don't blame." Xiao Xiao was not angry at all and said with a smile.

"Okay, you wait, I'll have someone open the door for you." Soon after saying this, the gate of the village was slowly opened, and some obstacles at the gate of the village were also removed, and a person walked out of it, it was the person on the city tower just now.

This man is here to greet the school.

"Little brother, our general is invited." When he came to the school, the man was courteous and authentic.

"Okay, please lead the way." Xiao Xiao smiled meaningfully.

The man had just turned around and was about to lead the way in front, but he felt a heat in his neck, as if something was flowing out, he reached out and touched it, blood! Then, he screamed, and then fell to the ground unwillingly, and before closing his eyes, he could clearly see the cruel smile on the little school's face.

"Kill!" Xiao Xiao suddenly shouted, and then took the lead and rushed towards the gate of the village.

Not far behind him, a black army was rolling in like a dark cloud.

It's the Taiping Army!

When the soldiers guarding the village saw this situation, they were also stunned for a while, and by the time they found out that they had to close the gate of the village, it was already too late, and the Taiping army had already killed.

The Qing army in the village was caught off guard and was completely annihilated.

A pillar of incense, just a pillar of incense, the Taiping army occupied the entire right-wing Dazhai. (To be continued......)
