"Ha Luha, is this the Green Battalion? As soon as the Xinhua Army fired its artillery, it was frightened back, and if it continued like this, it would not be possible to break through the defense line of the Xinhua Army until next year. Seeing that the Green Battalion soldiers were defeated, Monk Greenqin gloated and smiled.

"Lord, you ......" Hunan Governor Changchun was furious, although he was afraid that Prince Hui would love Xinjueluo. Mianyu, but for Monk Greenqin, he is not so afraid. Although Monk Greenqin is the king of the county, it is only the king of the Mongolian county, and he Changchun, as a first-class member, is still a man, and in terms of status, he is not much worse than Monk Greenqin.

"What's wrong with this king? The king is just telling the truth. Do you have the ability to let your soldiers lay down the positions of the Xinhua Army? Monk Grinqin said contemptuously. In his opinion, these green battalion soldiers are really too rubbish, no wonder so many Han people were not Manchu opponents back then, and they were seized by foreigners. However, Monk Grinqin seems to have forgotten that their Mongols were also defeated by the Manchus, and then became Manchu thugs? In addition, in order to control the Mongols, the Manchus stipulated that only one male could be left in each Mongol family to inherit the lineage, and the rest of the males had to be lamas, so as to strictly control the population of the Mongols. lest they pose a threat to the Manchu dynasty. You must know that in terms of horse archery, the Mongols are not much worse than the Manchus.

"Alright. Shut up the king! "Prince Hui loves Xin Jueluo. Mianyu said angrily. If the battle has just begun, and there is infighting within the Qing army, that is not a good sign. It's just that the performance of the Green Battalion also disappointed him too much.

"Yes, lord." Monk Greenqin and Changchun had to shut up stupidly. A beam between two people. Apparently it's already settled.

"Changchun, is this the soldier you bringed? was beaten back so easily by the Xinhua Army, how could he break through the defense line of the Xinhua Army. Defeat them? "Prince Hui loves Xin Jueluo. Mianyu pointed at the green battalion soldiers who had fled back and scolded.

"The prince forgives his sins, and he deserves to die." Changchun hurriedly said goodbye. At the same time, Hu Chunnian, the chief soldier, was so frightened that he fell to his knees. Ask Prince Hui for mercy.

"Humph! This king will give you one more chance. Pull out a few of the people who fled first and cut off their heads, then attack. If you run away again, you, the chief soldier, will know yourself by yourself! "Prince Hui loves Xin Jueluo. Mianyu said viciously. Changchun is the admiral, and he, the prince, can't cut off Changchun's head, but as the commander of this battle, there is still no problem in killing a general soldier who is not effective in combat.

"Yes, my lord. Hu Chunnian. Don't thank you for giving you a chance. Changchun breathed a sigh of relief.

"The last general, Hu Chunnian, thanked the prince, and the prince was relieved. The last general will risk his life, and he will also take the position of the Xinhua Army, so that they can know how powerful my Qing Dynasty is. Hu Chunnian patted his chest and said.

"Okay, this king is watching you here, as long as you can win, the first credit this time is yours!" Prince Hui approvingly.

Soon, the Green Battalion soldiers who had fled returned returned to the main camp, but they were surrounded by other Green Battalion soldiers.

"On the orders of the prince, those who retreat without permission will be killed." Then a couple of wolf-like soldiers rushed in, pulled a few out at random, and cut off their heads by holding them down, despite their struggles.

When several heads rolled to the ground, blood gushed out from the broken wound in their necks like a fountain, and the eyes of those who fell to the ground were wide open, as if they could not believe that this would be their fate. The rest of the Green Battalion soldiers, like frightened quails, watched all this in horror.

"Humph! This is what happens when you become a deserter. Originally, you should have been beheaded, but the prince is generous, spare your life, and give you another chance. If you take the position of the Xinhua Army, you will be able to atone for your crimes. If you fail, you'll all have to die. This time, the official will take his personal guards to supervise the battle, and those who retreat will be killed! Hu Chunnian, the chief soldier, said to his subordinates. Although these people are his subordinates, he can't care about so much. If he fails again, even he will lose his head. Rather than this, it is better to let these soldiers fight, and maybe there will be a glimmer of life.

Under persecution, the soldiers under Hu Chunnian had to take up arms again and go to the battlefield. Previously, they had more than 4,000 people, but under the heavy shelling of the Xinhua army, several hundred people had already been killed. Hu Chunnian led dozens of guards to guard behind the battlefield.

"Do you think this attack will be successful?" Prince Hui Ai Xin Jueluo. Mianyu took the binoculars and looked at the Qing soldiers who were lining up and preparing to attack and asked. He was also deeply impressed by the fierce shelling of the Xinhua Army. This was the first time he had seen the powerful firepower of the Xinhua Army, and he originally thought that even if the Xinhua Army was more powerful than the Qing Army, it would not be much more powerful, perhaps similar to the British Army. But now it seems, he seems too optimistic. The strength of the Xinhua Army's attack far exceeded his expectations.

"Don't worry, the soldiers will definitely do their best." Hunan Admiral Changchun said. In fact, he didn't have a bottom in his heart. Before the main force of the Qing army arrived, he led the Hunan Green Battalion to guard against the attack of the Xinhua army, and he had always been worried.

The other generals did not say a word. They are obviously not very optimistic about this attack. In particular, Monk Greenqin sneered even more, as if he was waiting for the failure of the Hunan Green Battalion's attack, and then he would look at Changchun's jokes.

At Sangong Bridge, the position of the Xinhua Army, the attack of the Qing army was defeated for the first time, and the Xinhua Army did not get carried away. The soldiers began to prepare ammunition for the next attack of the Qing army. Everyone knew very well that the Qing army's offensive had only just begun. For at least a month in the future, they will hold their positions firmly, keep the Qing army out, and buy time for the training of recruits in the rear. However, everyone also believed that with the combat strength of the Xinhua army, it was completely capable of resisting the attack of the Qing army.

"Kill! Anyway, we are all dead, and if we defeat the Xinhua Army, we may still have a glimmer of life. "The officers and men of the Hunan Green Battalion, under the leadership of junior officers, once again launched an attack. Although they only had more than 3,000 people left, the momentum that erupted was greater than when they attacked for the first time before. When people are in a desperate situation, they tend to burst out with greater strength. Now these green battalion soldiers are like this, if the attack fails again, they will have no choice but to die. Rather than this, it is better to die on the way to attack. Perhaps, in this way, it is possible to break through the positions of the Xinhua Army and gain a glimmer of life.

"All departments are ready, and the Qing army is here to die again!" Major Zhang Chusheng, commander of the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Brigade of the Xinhua Army, ordered.

The soldiers of the Xinhua Army have loaded their bullets, the grenades are neatly placed in front of the trenches, and the artillery is ready, just waiting for the Qing army to come up. As the battalion commander, Major Zhang Chusheng, said, in their opinion, the Qing army really came to send them to death.

The soldiers of the Xinhua Army are also eager for military exploits, which is the only way for them to be promoted quickly. This time, the Xinhua Army built 20 new infantry brigades, and many middle- and low-ranking officers were transferred from the old units, and even some battalion commanders were directly promoted to brigade commanders, which greatly encouraged the officers and men of the Xinhua Army. Of course, in the newly formed 20 infantry brigades, the rank of brigade commander is tentatively set at colonel, and only after they have made meritorious service on the battlefield will they be promoted to brigadier general according to the evaluation of their combat merits.

"Artillery fire!" When the Qing army came into range, the artillery of the Xinhua army began to attack first. 12 mortars, which began to fire at the maximum rate of fire.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Dense shells exploded in the ranks of the Qing army, setting off pieces of bloody rain, and the Qing soldiers were constantly killed, or blown to pieces, or the flesh and blood of the explosion were blurred, and the death was extremely miserable. On the entire official road by the Yichang River, there are stumps and broken arms everywhere, as if it has become a Shura hell.

However, the huge casualties did not make these Qing soldiers retreat. Now they have no way out, and if they are beaten back again, they will be ordered by Prince Hui to kill the sacrificial flag. Since they are all dead, it is better to fight, and maybe there is a possibility of survival. A large number of Qing troops attacked with such a mentality.

More than 3,000 Qing troops frantically rushed to the position of the Xinhua Army, even if the comrades-in-arms around them fell one by one, they did not let them be afraid anymore. In other words, they are numb now, and they no longer know what fear is. They just resigned themselves to continuing to attack.

"Ready, shoot!" When the Qing army rushed to a position more than 200 meters away from the Xinhua army's position, the Xinhua army, which was guarding a company at the front, opened fire.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "The crisp sound of gunfire echoed in the mountains, and the dense gunfire was like frying beans.

However, after the bullet was fired quickly, it was able to bloom blood flowers on the chests of the Qing soldiers. Those Qing soldiers who were charging down fell to the ground one by one.

After being equipped with the "Zhonghua I" rifle, the infantry of the Xinhua Army once again increased its rate of fire. A company of more than 100 people can completely block the official road. The dense bullets were fired, so that the Qing soldiers who were attacking were poured down in a row as if they were cutting wheat.

"Shhh The generals of the Qing army who were watching the battle in the rear couldn't help but gasp one by one when they saw this kind of sobriety. Obviously, the firepower of the Xinhua Army has completely surpassed their similarity. Under the combination of heavy artillery fire and intensive rifle fire, the official road has been blocked, and it is almost impossible for the Qing army to break through. (To be continued......)
