The Taiping Scout named Chen Picheng looked at him only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was born extremely heroic, and what was even more special was that there were moles under his eyes, looking at them like four eyes, although his face was childish, but a pair of clear eyes as water exuded an unruly heroic spirit.

He was wearing the red uniform of the children's camp, and the style of the uniform was similar to that of the adult military horse of the Taiping Army, except that the front of the uniform was written with the big words "Taiping Shengtong", and the clothes inside were ordinary short coats like the adult Taiping Army.

Originally, the boy soldiers in the Taiping Army were not divided into separate systems, but were divided into tail cards for each of the two Sima commanders of the men's battalion, and each two Sima had several old and weak tail cards. Chen Picheng's men's battalion was under the command of Xiao Chaogui, the former army commander, but before the attack on Changsha, all the old and weak tail cards in the battalion were left, and only adult soldiers were mentioned to fight, so Chen Picheng and other former army boy soldiers stayed in Chenzhou.

These boy soldiers are very full of fighting spirit and have always regarded death as the supreme glory, but this attack on Changsha was left behind, which made the boy soldiers extremely depressed. Before Xiao Chaogui set out on the expedition, Chen Picheng and several other boy soldier leaders wanted to ask Xiao Chaogui, the king of the West, to ask the reason for the situation, but they could not meet Xiao Chaogui, only Li Kaifang and General Li of the former army told them that the former army boy soldiers suffered a lot of losses in the battle of Guilin in the spring of this year, and asked them to stay and leave some good seedlings for the front army.

Chen Picheng and others remembered the tragic battle in Guilin, the boy soldiers took the lead, and the casualties were indeed heavy, but it was still not big compared to the losses of the previous army. His uncle Chen Chengying is a Yulin guard, since the capture of Yong'an, he has been with the king of the east, Chen Chengying scolded Chen Picheng away, did not fight and was scolded by his uncle, has always made Chen Picheng sullen.

Fortunately, more than ten days later, the king of heaven and the king of the east ordered Hong Xuanjiao, the mother of the king of the west, to lead the female soldiers of the Jinxiu battalion and the former army boy soldiers to the north to help the king of the west, Xiao Chaogui, and to be able to go out to fight again, which made Chen Picheng happy again.

On the swallow ridge, a row of guns repelled the Qing demon, Chen Picheng cheered, and heard the beautiful woman in front of him command loudly, Chen Picheng immediately led the order loudly: "The subordinates obey the order of the West Wangniang!" With that, he clasped his fists and turned away.

The female general under this pennant is the sister of Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, the righteous sister recognized by the king of heaven, the daughter of the emperor God of the heavenly father in the mortal world, the wife of the king of the west, Xiao Chaogui, the wife of the king of the west, and Hong Xuanjiao, the mother of the king of the west!

Seeing Chen Picheng happily walking backwards, Hong Xuanjiao had a light smile on his face, and said secretly in his heart: "This future king of England never imagined that this would be like this now, maybe he will experience more wars in the future before he can become a famous general of the heavenly kingdom." ”

Thinking of this, a group of female soldiers and boy scouts with muskets beside him opened their throats and laughed loudly at the Qing army under the mountain: "A group of old men just ran away like this, aren't you ashamed?" "The demon is vulnerable, even women and children have been beaten, hahaha"

The coquettish voices of the female soldiers on the Swallow Ridge and the childish laughter of the boy soldiers came, which made the Qing troops under the mountain all change color, and many Qing soldiers even if they couldn't bear it and wanted to rush up the mountain, but they were suppressed by the Qing army generals at all levels.

Hong Xuanjiao watched the group of female soldiers chirp loudly and laugh loudly at the Qing army under the mountain, and her smile became even more delicate. At the time of the Jintian Uprising, the worshippers of the Worship of God were all members of the regimental camp, and the women, like the men, organized a women's army. The attire of the women's army is similar to that of the men's army, with long knives at the waist, narrow sleeves and short clothes, horseback riding can gallop, and yellow scarves are barefoot, and they are not inferior to men.

In the battle of Yong'an, the king of heaven Hong Xiuquan ordered the whole army to "men and women to hold swords, and kill demons with one heart and courage." "In this siege-breaking battle, the women's army has also made great contributions. They fought side by side with the men's army all the way, swept away how many Qing soldiers, broke how many Tongguan iron cards, and fought all the way to Chenzhou. And Hong Xuanjiao is the daughter of the Heavenly Father, the royal sister of the Heavenly King, the sister of the East King, and the wife of the West King. The female soldiers under his command are all pennants and silver shields, so they are known as the splendid battalion of female soldiers. …,

Although Hong Xuanjiao brought a small number of people and horses on this expedition, he had to allocate a lot of firearms, including more than 200 guns of various kinds, shotguns, and muskets, two 100-kilogram copper cannons, eight spray guns, and more than 1,000 kilograms of red medicine. Where this partial division passed, the Taiping army and the Qing army were staggered, and the king of heaven and the king of the east were worried about the lack of combat power of female soldiers and boy soldiers, and they were worried about the safety of Hong Xuanjiao, so they allocated more firearms.

Most of Hong Xuanjiao's female guards in the splendid camp have used firearms, and the former army boy soldiers have also experienced a lot of vicious battles, many people can operate guns, and when Hong Xuanjiao went out to fight, he gathered the people who would use firearms under his command, and once they met the Qing army, they could protect themselves.

Hong Xuanjiao's troops did not follow Xiao Chaogui's march route after leaving Chenzhou, and Hong Xuanjiao calculated that there would be a large Qing army behind Xiao Chaogui's buttocks, so he took Hengdong, Zhuzhou, and arrived in Changsha. Along the way, they found the local poor people as guides, tried to avoid the official roads, took the small roads and marched quickly, and after stealing Xiangtan to Dongjingpu, they got the news that Changsha had been captured by Xiao Chaogui, the king of the West, and the whole army was overjoyed.

Before they were happy for a long time, there were people to report that there was a Qing army coming to Xiangtan, the terrain of Dongjingpu was flat, not conducive to the defense, after several female soldiers, the leader of the boy soldiers discussed, Hong Xuanjiao ordered the whole army to retreat to the Yanziling next to Dongjingpu.

The Qing army in Xiangtan is Deng Shaoliang's department, Deng Shaoliang has been suppressing thieves for many years, and can be described as experienced, but whenever he sends troops, the horses are released in all directions, and soon he learned that there is a Taiping army is retreating to Yanziling, Deng Shaoliang did not dare to slack off, and immediately led the troops to follow, and a battle broke out just now.

Hearing the ridicule of the women and teenagers on the mountain, all the Qing military attaches beside Deng Shaoliang were furious, but Deng Shaoliang remained silent and asked lightly: "Have you ever rescued the minister?" ”

A Qing army commander replied: "Lord Zhu suffered a gunshot wound to his left shoulder, and the wound was very large, but fortunately, he did not worry about his life. ”

Deng Shaoliang hummed and said: "Send someone to send Zichen back to Xiangtan for medical treatment, the lead is difficult to heal from the wound in the body, and he must be taken care of." ”

The general manager of Qian shouted to take the order, and all the generals of the Qing army on the side stepped forward to ask for battle, but they only felt that they were ridiculed by a group of women and teenagers on the mountain, and they couldn't hold their breath.

Deng Shaoliang was scheming and asked lightly: "You have been dealing with thieves for a long time, don't you know the nature of thieves?" A group of big-footed barbarians are just stubble, there is a lack of water on this swallow ridge, we only need to guard the road, and this ridge will be broken in three days, so let them shout it, why bother to attack the mountain? All the Qing generals suddenly realized, and they all praised Deng Shaoliang's clever plan.

On Yanzi Ridge, the female soldiers and boy soldiers of the Taiping Army shouted for a long time and did not see the Qing army attacking the mountain again, Hong Xuanjiao wondered in her heart, so she had to let everyone stop first and prepare for war.

At this moment, Hu Damei, the brigade commander among the female soldiers of the Splendid Battalion, hurriedly came to report: "Xiwang Niang, there is no water source on this mountain, and we have searched all over the mountain and have not found a water source. ”

This Hu eldest sister is the mother of Liang Litai, the commander of the Second Army after the men's battalion, and she is already a woman in her fifties.

After listening to Hu Damei's words, Hong Xuanjiao woke up like a dream, and secretly screamed that it was not good, no wonder the Qing army only surrounded the mountain but did not attack the mountain, because they knew that there was no water source on the mountain, and they only had to defend the mountain road, and their own troops would collapse without a fight like Ma Jian guarding the street pavilion.

I still suffer a loss in the war, although I have some memories in my mind, but when it is used in actual combat, it is inevitable that I will miss a thousand mistakes, a small mistake, and everyone will be in danger, what should I do now, sister? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but panic.
