Chapter 94: The War of Unification (5)
Under the highly efficient and advanced Taiping Hui system, the Taiping Unification Army, the main force of more than 500,000 people, was relatively well prepared in just two months, and brazenly decided to launch a large-scale military attack on the provinces where the remnants of the 34th Qing forces were located.
The Taiping Hui army that Li Sanyazi saw advancing towards the Qishan River was a Second Route Taiping Unification Army with three giant beast airship regiments and two spider armored regiments as the core of the attack, with 150,000 people.
In the history books of later generations, this Second Route Army, also known as the "Unified Middle Route Army", its main enemy was the self-protection coalition army of the five provinces of Gansu with more than 500,000 people encamped on the opposite side of the Qishan River.
······
"The Fourth, Sixth, and Seventh Masters have all agreed to your proposal!"
Ma Liyang, the governor of Gansu with a white beard, wore an official uniform, and Sibeile, who happened to be in the five provinces of Gansu when Beiping was broken and escaped a catastrophe, walked side by side.
As the eldest of the governors and governors of the surrounding five provinces, Ma Liyang, who was ranked fifth in the first class of Jinshike back then, did not expect that he would encounter such a drastic change in Shenzhou when he was about to become a minister, and he had to carry the remnants of the five provinces of Daqing with an old body.
"Ma Gong!"
"In ancient times, there was a story of 'Chu tyrannizes the king of Han, and the one who enters Xianyang first is the emperor'."
The tall and thin Sibeile is the fourth son of the previous generation of **** Prince Gong's family, and he said to the governor Ma Liyang beside him with a smile.
"Today, there is an agreement of 'Daqing Sanbeile, first break the Taiping thief and become the emperor'."
The news that the Daqing Jingshi was tilted, and the queen mother and the little emperor were in the hands of the enemy, he didn't believe it at first.
But today, several months have passed, and the high-ranking officials and magnates in the remnants of the 34 provinces in Daqing have confirmed the truth through various means!
What are the consequences of a feudal power losing its leader? Naturally, there is a great probability of civil unrest!
In the remaining 34 provinces of Daqing, there are a total of five "multi-provincial self-protection alliances" formed by local real power factions, and two of them are located in the border areas and have no descendants of the braided hair clan, so they temporarily said that they remain neutral. The other three, on the other hand, each elected a braided Belle with the blood of the Iron Hat Prince as their leader, in an attempt to seize the dragon throne and obtain the merit of the dragon in return for themselves!
After all, the throne of the Son of Heaven can only sit on one person, and if there is no Taiping Society's army, maybe they would have fought each other in a river of blood!
In the face of the menacing Taiping Hui army, which broke through the capital division and plundered the royal family, these Baylors and the forces behind them had to maintain a semblance of peace.
And these four Baylor lords also took this opportunity to put forward the so-called "Daqing Three Baylors, first break the Taiping thieves and call the emperor" agreement, the Taiping Society's attacking three-way army, the "multi-province self-protection alliance" where the three Baylors are located, whoever breaks the way first, who can be called the Son of Heaven!
Governor Ma Liyang turned sideways and saluted the tall and thin Sibeile.
Although the master in front of him is still just a Baylor, Ma Liyang is too old with a white beard, and among the two sons and the grandsons below, there is no one who is competitive, and he is probably the least ambitious among the local leaders of the "Multi-Provincial Self-Protection Alliance".
He just wants to leave a little shadow for future generations.
Therefore, Ma Liyang, who secretly set up a subordinate of the monarch and the four beylers, has already regarded himself as a subordinate and offered advice to his lord.
"Fourth master, according to the minister's opinion."
"We ought to send at once the details of your 'Covenant of the Three Baylors' in the newspaper and announce it to the world."
"Let all beings in the world know that the mouth of Youyou has formed a general trend."
"After the Daqing Heavenly Soldiers of my five provinces defeated the Taiping rebels, the sixth and seventh masters had nothing to say!"
The sixth and seventh masters in his mouth are supported by the other two "multi-provincial self-protection alliances", and they also have the **** blood of Daqing, and the braided haired people are the royal Baylor.
It's just that, listening to the numbers "four, six, seven" in front of these Lord Baylors, you know that when they were not yet "tilted" in Beiping, most of them were not favored, and they were not favored by the Daqing braided hair clan.
Ma Liyang's words stunned Sibeile, but he soon discovered the benefits of doing so.
If the agreement between him and the other two Baylors is not widely spread to the world, then even if he manages to defeat the Taiping bandit army first, but the other two Baylors will say that this agreement is unnecessary, and he may really be helpless against the two of them.
"Well, Ma Gong is right!"
Sibeile himself was not the eldest son and grandson in the past, and he had never been cultivated as the head of the family, and after seeing Governor Ma's suggestion, he humbly accepted the old governor's optimization plan, and looked like a wise man.
Although nearly half of the ancestor's country fell, he himself once gained power and had the opportunity to get a glimpse of the position.
This Lord Belle has only now woken up from the earth-shattering changes, and he doesn't know whether to be happy or worried······
————————————
Wang Huimin, who is almost 32 years old, was one of the first 1,000 members of the Taiping Society to follow Hong Tiangui on the "Kolotilda" slave carrier.
After coming ashore and after the establishment of the Taiping City Fortress, his work direction has been developing towards the armed forces of the Taiping Society, and now, he has been appointed by Hong Tiangui as the commander of the Second Route Army.
After successfully occupying the 17 provinces of Daqing, he was awarded the rank of lieutenant general of the Taiping Unification Army by the leader Hong Tiangui, one of the few in the current Taiping regime.
The current Commander Wang was half-lying on the sand table, receiving several offensive plans passed to him by the front army staff committee, studying the next attack, and deciding which plan to follow to implement the next attack plan.
"Based on the intelligence of the special reconnaissance forces behind enemy lines."
"On the other side, our main opponent, the 'Gansu Five Provinces Allied Army', has 320,000 green battalion soldiers, 30,000 braided warriors, 170,000 local regiments in the five provinces, and countless transporters."
In the "Mid-Route Military Liaison Group" created by Lieutenant General Wang Huimin in the Taiping Aura Network, the divisional and regiment-level commanders below him are discussing a lot based on the latest information obtained in the past few days, which is very characteristic of "teleconferences" in later generations.
When Lieutenant General Wang Huimin did not speak, the following members were free to discuss.
"Look at their formation, it's still the same old way of camping."
"Don't they know how powerful the incendiary bombs dropped by our airship troops are?"
"Those people should know, after all, in the previous battles, we used those powerful incendiary bombs many times!"
"Is there any hole card, such as supernatural power that we don't know about?"
······
The doubts of these divisional and regimental commanders are actually the doubts of Commander Wang now.
Hundreds of thousands of allied troops of the five provinces on the opposite side, the large camp stretches for more than ten miles, and it seems that there are many people, and it seems that it is as imposing as Mount Tai pressing the top.
But what's the use?
Those wooden camp walls and dense army layout, isn't this Chi Guoguo's cane-making behavior to bomb and attack the airship troops of the Taiping Unification Army and increase their combat exploits?
Could it be that in those Daqing armies on the other side, there is really any hidden and extraordinary power?
However, according to the analysis of the existing intelligence of the staff group, after the Kyushu enchantment was broken, most of the scattered people with extraordinary strength went to the Beijing division and were wiped out by the leader Comrade Hong Tiangui!
Moreover, in this era of the end of France, what kind of extraordinary force can make up for the gap between the feudal army of the Five Provinces Alliance Army and the semi-modern army of the Taiping Unification Army?
Based on all aspects of the information, I couldn't figure out what was the mystery behind the current outdated and extremely outdated arrangement of troops by the coalition forces of the five provinces, and after thinking about it for a while, he simply didn't want to think about it!
War is like playing chess to a certain extent, you come and go to make moves to each other, see the moves!
This time, Commander Wang simply decided to let him come and "go" first!
"Pass my order, the 17th Airship Regiment, attack immediately!"
"Bring Molotov cocktails and bomb the camp on the other side!"
"The 11th Spider Armored Regiment, the 1st and 2nd Marine Divisions, immediately after the airship bombardment, crossed the river and launched a surprise attack!"
When Lieutenant General Wang Huimin gave the order, in the "Middle Route Military Liaison Group" of the Taiping Aura Network, the words of other people were directly silenced.
After his order was issued, the commanders of the units he named regained the right to speak, and they responded with full vigor in the "Central Military Liaison Group."
"Yes, Comrade Commander!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
In the next moment, one-third of the 150,000-strong Taiping Unification Middle Route Army immediately responded to the orders of its commander.
On the other side of the Qishan River, the allied forces of the five provinces deliberately built a towering lookout by the river, and the sharp-eyed soldiers also saw the movement of the Taiping Unification Army, which was not sheltered at all, during a large-scale military mobilization, and hurriedly lit the wolf smoke for early warning······
