8-28 Strong. On the eve of the Great War
He Renlong's choice is correct, when the enemy situation is unknown, the bad way is to retreat, but one of his partial generals does not think so, looking at the nearby governor yamen with dozens of cavalry in the headquarters rushed over, He Renlong wanted to stop it was too late, from the gate of the governor's yamen spewed out a scorching iron rain, all these cavalry knocked over to the ground, I don't know when the death battalion has dragged the cannon into the official office.
All this was born between the lightning and flint, He Renlong tightly grasped the reins, controlled the manic war horse, he suddenly appeared, countless torches lit up all around, and then from these torches threw countless iron balls towards himself, some of the iron balls fell to the ground before exploding, some exploded in the air, Liu Ziguang ruthlessly smashed half of the four hundred grenades into it, the effect was of course very impressive, the He soldiers turned over on their backs, killed and wounded, countless He Renlong pulled out his saber, and commanded the troops to break through with a hoarse voice.
The barracks at the parade ground can't go back, because the barracks are already on fire, and there are torches everywhere, and I don't know how many enemies He Renlong felt in his heart: Could it be that the imperial army secretly infiltrated the city?
In this case, there was only one way to go, that is, to get out of the city, so the cavalry rushed in the direction of the city gate, fortunately they did not encounter too strong resistance, and the strong men near the city gate saw the cavalry rushing and scattered, and the army opened the city gate and swarmed out of the city.
After leaving the city, He Renlong felt that he regretted how many years his foundation was over, and he left Wuchang City, there was no supply, just with his men and horses, what to do, there were only more than 2,000 people in the inventory, and when he turned around, he saw that Wuchang City was already full of lights, and the flags were fluttering at the head of the city, and countless soldiers were waiting for them with firearms and strong bows and crossbows.
"The general trend has gone..."He Renlong sighed, and led two thousand men and horses straight to Ezhou, to meet up with the eight hundred elite cavalry he attacked the ferry, and now he can only seize Ezhou and then slowly plan it.
The reason why He Renlong was able to retreat with his whole body was still merciful to Liu Ziguang's subordinates, because after all, He Bu still had thousands of people and horses, trapped beasts, and it was inevitable that their lives would be ruined, in order to avoid the people in the city from suffering, and in order to reduce his own casualties, Liu Ziguang finally chose to let him go, anyway, there will be opportunities to settle accounts with him in the future.
As soon as He Renlong's unstable factor was resolved, Wuchang really returned to the arms of the imperial court, but with the flight of He Ministry, Wuchang's defense problem became even more severe, and it was difficult to confront Zuo Menggeng's 6 army with only 10,000 strong men and 1,000 soldiers.
Liu Ziguang has his own way, he armed the Yellow Crane Tower on the Snake Mountain into a turret, four cannons were placed on the city tower, the city tower was piled up with sandbags, stored gunpowder and cannonballs, and equipped with a large magnification clairloom observation post, the Yellow Crane Tower is the highest building in the three towns of Wuhan, standing on it, the land of Jingchu at a glance, is the so-called Qingchuan calendar, Hanyang trees, grass, grass, parrot island, if the weather is clear, the left army barracks in Hanyang can be seen clearly, as for the wharf of the left army, it is even more in full view, if the left army warships are dispatched, the Yellow Crane Tower can give an early warning, no matter where they board the 6, they can use the flag to quickly transmit to the mobile troops in the city。
He Renlong ran away, but he left a lot of belongings, the fire in the barracks was quickly extinguished, and there were still a hundred and ten war horses, and then there were a large number of armor, weapons and uniforms, Wuhan was too hot, so that the summer of the soldiers did not like to wear armor, last night He army rebelled, there was no armor, just cheap, Liu Ziguang equipped these armor soldiers, his own sentry, this year, fighting is a strength work, mainly relying on discipline, fighting on the battlefield is not very particular about martial arts, is some simple tricks that open and close, the most effective, those thieves were originally peasants, with a hoe, you can go into battle, after a year and a half, you can become the so-called elite soldiers。
Taking advantage of the fact that the left army did not come to attack, Liu Ziguang stepped up the drill of the strong men, and thousands of strong men with helmets and armor were lined up on the horse parade ground, one by one, the waist pole was straight, and under the reprimand of the head of the sect, they practiced walking in unison, and the peasants who were illiterate in big characters were indeed stupid and could not even walk well, but under the rattan of the head of the sect, they quickly distinguished the left and right steps, and gradually became neat, and the leaders had a very good way to deliberately let them go to the pond, and the strong men looked at the brand-new uniforms on their bodies, where they were willing to go to the mud pond, they were all stepping on the edge of the pond, and the head of the sect roared and rushed over, and the rattan was pumped indiscriminately, and asked the military discipline team to come over, and pressed the soldiers in the front row to the ground and beat the stick, saying that this is the end of not abiding by military discipline, not only to beat the stick, but also to starve three meals of rough skinThe thick strong men were not afraid to beat the military sticks and not let them eat, so they walked over without hesitation in the face of the muddy pond in the second training of the head of the sect.

Looking at the rows of soldiers stepping through the muddy pond without hesitation, Liu Ziguang, who was inspecting under the shade of the trees, nodded with satisfaction, sent a personal soldier to run to the head of the sect and whispered a few words, and then the head of the sect roared hoarsely: "All turn left and walk together!" On the left side of the mud pond is the earthen wall of the barracks, the soldiers walked to the wall and did not hear the head of the sect shout to stop, this time the soldiers in the first row became smarter, and actually knocked down the earthen wall, and then continued to stride forward, and then the barracks in front of them, looking at the posture of these strong men, it seemed that the barracks were going to be demolished, the head of the sect took off the Fan Yang hat on his head, and looked at Liu Ziguang with instructive eyes, Liu Ziguang smiled silently, and waited for those strong men to really start to climb to the roof to remove the tiles, and then made a stop gesture to the head of the sect.
"These Hubei soldiers are good, worthy of being nine-headed birds, go back and pick a few for me to add to the death camp as translators." Liu Ziguang said.
The soldiers of the death battalion came from all over the world, but there were no soldiers from Huguang and Guangzhou, and it was inevitable that they would have to deal with the local people when they marched and fought, even if they captured the prisoners, they also needed to be interrogated.
So some rudimentary translations are needed. The military training here is in full swing, and the cavalry of He Renlong has arrived in Ezhou, but what he didn't expect is that the eight hundred cavalry sent to seize the ferry have been broken up by the imperial army, although the forbidden army is only five hundred people, and they are not equipped with advanced artillery and firearms, but the disposable bazookas and grenades produced by the Beijing Arsenal are equipped with a lot, and these weapons are still a big killer for He Renlong's cavalry.
When He Renlong arrived, Ezhou City had already changed hands, I don't know what method Wu Sangui used, and transported an unknown number of troops over, as well as a large number of firearms, He Renlong could only sigh in the face of the strong city and cannons, and turned his horse away, and the vast land didn't even think about a place to replenish grain and grass, he still decided to go to Changsha and go to his old friend Zhang Yingyuan.
A few days later, the Yangtze River flood peak finally passed, the left army was ready to move again, first took advantage of the night to send spies to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, the spies were all locals, the Yangtze River could not be fully armed, and you could board 6 at any time, and the spies naturally came and went freely, and the spies successfully got the information that He Renlong had rebelled again, and the next night he took a small boat to report to Zuo Mengeng, Zuo Shao Marshal was overjoyed when he heard the news, he was most afraid of He Renlong's five thousand cavalry, in addition to these cavalry, he fought a hard battle against the infantry, he was not afraid, he now has 50,000 horses in his hands, even if he takes the life pad, he can also take Wuchang.
What's more, he Zuo Mengeng is still so resourceful and uses soldiers like a god. Zuo Mengeng saw a white light flashing on the Yellow Crane Tower, and knew that there must be an observation post of the imperial army, and his every move was under the gaze of the other party, but this was not difficult for him, he ordered the army to board the boat in the middle of the night, and not to drive the motor downstream, and to board the river in Xudong Village on the other side of the river.6 This is still some distance away from Wuchang City, and he can calmly arrange the troops, this time he let the soldiers bring enough supplies and tents, ready to fight a protracted war, a boatload of soldiers, The baggage was transported to the south bank, and the camp was set up in Xudong Village, and during the day, it was surrounded by the observation post on the top of the Yellow Crane Tower, and the camp had been formed, and the best opportunity to strike at it while its foothold was not stable.
Now that the camp has been completed, Zuo Mengeng will continue to transport troops unscrupulously, and has been transporting 20,000 soldiers before pausing, so that he also has an overwhelming force on the south bank, not only has a stable camp tent, but also medium-sized catapults, heavy weapons such as crossbows, and the general who leads the team is Jin Shengheng, known as a brave warrior, and Zuo Mengeng is a hundred assured that he leads the army.
Jin Shengheng's nickname
"A fight" is a fierce general of 10,000 enemies, born as a thief, and later surrendered, Zuo Liangyu was relied on by Zuo as an arm, his ten battalions of infantry are the strongest infantry under Zuo Liangyu, fighting positional warfare and siege warfare unambiguously, he attracted the attention of the imperial army, Zuo Mengeng can concentrate his energy on the shipyard, this big factory, after all, condensed his father and his many years of hard work, and has a strong production and research capacity, no matter who it falls into, it is like a tiger with wings, every day Zuo Mengeng has to look at the shipyard on the other side through the clairvoyant mirror, while looking at it with hatred and gritting his teeth.
