Chapter 24 Hong Xiuquan Yong'an Divides
In the first battle of Guancun, a complete victory, the Taiping army was no longer fetters, and the soldiers were divided into two routes and marched north to Yong'an.
Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing walked along the waterway, leading the old and the weak, carrying the baggage, and walking in a hurry. More than half of the boat, get out of the predicament, show all the joy, and say: All the soldiers will pray to obey the order of heaven and must not be reversed. I tell the truth, I am not greedy for life and afraid of death in front of me, and then I go to heaven, and I will live forever. If you are greedy for life, you will not live, and if you are afraid of death, you will die. And he is not greedy or afraid of hardship in front of him, and then he goes to heaven and will be free of suffering forever. If you are greedy for peace, you will be uneasy, and if you are afraid of suffering, you will be bitter. In short, obey the commandments of heaven and enjoy the blessings of heaven. Against the order of the heavens, go to hell. The soldiers will wake up with thousands of prayers, and then the rebels are not strange. Chin this.
Lu Lu was led by Xiao Chaogui, and Luo Xuan was the vanguard, and he advanced lightly. On September 20, in Teng County, the whole army was recruited, and Chen Chengying, Chen Yucheng, Li Xiucheng, Li Shixian and others came to visit.
On the 25th, Luo Gangsheng attacked the east and the west, killed the deputy general of the Pingle Association, Aljinga, and took Yong'an City lightly.
Xiao Chaogui was overjoyed, Kailuo outline and Ma Chengtou, pointing out the country, and was passionate for a long time.
Yong'an was the first city captured by the Taiping army, and Hong Xiuquan was overjoyed and married Hong Xuanjiao to Xiao Chaogui.
On September 26, 1851, Ulantai led the army to chase to Xiayikou, and the advance advanced to Wenwei. And spring wants to attack.
Ulantai said: "Wenwei Yong'an, ten miles apart, vast open land, lone attack, the next strategy." Shuidou Village is the gateway of Yong'an, and Yong'an is at your fingertips. ”
At the beginning of October, 3,000 tides arrived, and Ulantai was full of confidence, and the troops were divided into four routes to attack Shuidou Village. Qin Rigang was not supported, Liuurn Village was lost, and the grain camp was destroyed.
Xiao Chaogui went out of the city to supervise the battle, was injured by a stray arrow, and couldn't move; Suddenly, Jesus possessed him and said, "Brother Heaven has worked hard to come down to earth, and he will be in eternal peace." Because of the king of the west, he suffered some minor injuries, which is not very important. Brother Xiuqing, you ascend to the court, and Lord An'er is relieved and blessed. It's okay for your brother-in-law to suffer a little. ”
Yang Xiuqing and the others knelt down and prayed: "Brother Tian atoned for his sins in the past, and our younger brothers have been stained with a lot, and now your brother-in-law is suffering on behalf of the world, and the younger brother begs Heavenly Father and Heavenly Brother to take special care of him, in order to heal your brother-in-law as soon as possible, and be the same as Heavenly Father and Heavenly Brother." ”
Xiao Chaogui reverted to Jesus' words: You are relieved, you must instruct the generals, everyone must be relieved, and recognize the Father and Brother. Move forward boldly and work together to slay the demons.
Xiuqing appeased Chaogui to recuperate from his injuries, and suddenly his heavenly father possessed him, and shouted: "Zhou Xineng, Zhu Ba can be? You are a rebellious and treacherous traitor, and you will be captured right and right immediately! ”
Zhou and Zhu were not convinced and poured out their grievances.
Yang Xiuqing said: "I will make you wait for death without bending and stretching, and bring witnesses." ”
The supervising army Zhu Xikun and the inspector Huang Wenan were escorted in.
It turned out that the military marshals Zhou Xineng, Zhu Ba, and Chen Wuhui Bobai convened the congregation to surrender for the Qing army. Zhu Ba is Zhu Xikun's uncle, and has repeatedly instigated Zhu Xikun to start anew, and when Zhu Xikun was hesitating, Yang Xiuqing already knew everything.
Guancun was defeated, Yong'an City was lost, Emperor Xianfeng was shocked, reprimanded Sai Shang'a for his poor command, and was demoted to four levels to remain in office. Xiang Rong was greedy for merit, and his achievements were defeated, and he was deprived of his military position and stayed in the camp to serve. Ulantai has meritorious service in defending against the enemy and gives him a yellow coat. Dong Guangjia, the chief soldier of Hebei Town, Henan, and Shao Heling, the chief soldier of Yunyang Town, Hubei Province, were quickly reinforced.
Saishang knows that if this continues, the head of Xiang will eventually be lost. With a slap of shocking wood, the curb Bilong knife flicked, and Liu Changqing, the chief soldier of North Sichuan Town, was the acting governor of Guangxi and led the military horses of the North Road; Ulantai Temperance South Road; Zhang Zhao led the water to swim the Meijiang River; Yao Ying, the envoy of Guangxi, served as the wing commander of the battalion, and the prime minister went north and south to besiege and capture the city.
Yao Ying, in accordance with Saishan's order, ordered Ulantai and Liu Changqing to advance north and south, and attacked many times, but they were all repelled by the Taiping army.
Xiuquan sat firmly in Yong'an, physically and mentally refreshed. At the end of the month, Xiu Quanfu issued another edict, enshrined the five kings of the east, west, north and south wings, Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, and the king of Xiao Dynasty and Guixi, ranking first. Feng Yunshan is the king of the south, Wei Changhui is the king of the north, and he is ranked second. Shi Da Kaiyi King, ranked third-class. All the kings below the king of the west were subject to the control of the king of the east. He also sealed the prime minister of heaven Qin Rigang, and the prime minister of Chunguan Hu Yihuang. The prime minister below is the inspector, commander, and general, the general below the general is the general system, the army supervisor, and the army marshal, and the army commander below the army commander is the division commander, the brigade commander, the commander of the pawn, and the two Simas. The Qing Dynasty was abolished, and the "Heavenly Calendar" was promulgated, with Jintian Tuanying as the first year of the founding of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the year was divided into 366 days, 31 days of a single month and 30 days of two months.
Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, was disdainful, and said that Yang Fuqing said: "The military division is two Sima, the twelve-level official text, and this king has a headache." It's really nonsense, this king still can't remember everything, and the soldiers can care? If you don't keep the danger, you will be able to wait for a lifetime. ”
Luo's outline is only the general system, and the position is sixth, and he is also disdainful, saying that Su Sanniang said: "From now on, the brothers and sisters are all in the past." ”
Su Sanniang said: "The vanguard of the former army, the hard work is high, only the general system, those prime ministers, inspectors, commanders, generals, which one is stronger than Er?" ”
Luo Xuan said: "The kings are born and restrained each other, and there are more than the less, I am attached to His Royal Highness the King of the West, and the King of the West is seriously injured, so I am helpless." ”
Su Sanniang said: "Feed and think about lust, and stabilize the etiquette." Seeing the king kowtowing and bowing, what a difference is between Yu Qing and the demon! Dongxiang is called the king, that is, he accepts four wives; The day before yesterday, Meng Deen was in a big beauty pageant, and the king of heaven got another forty wives. If all the brothers and sisters in the world are brothers and sisters, what can Xiao Desheng and his wife complain about? ”
Hong Xiuquan was good at preaching Yang Xiuqing's moderation of the kings, Feng Yunshan sighed, but when he heard that the king of heaven was repairing the palace of the king, the people were widely selected for wives, and the "Taiping Rite System" was urgently thrown, Feng Yunshan's heart trembled, and he said to himself: "The king of heaven is lazy to manage the government, greedy for peace and ease!" This mountain is not exhausted, this water is not exhausted, who cares about 40,000 tigers and wolves outside the city! ”
One day, someone asked to see him, kneeling on the ground and crying uncle, Yunshan asked his relatives how are they? Hearing that his parents, wife and children were punished, Yun Shan suddenly felt that his life was declining, and he whimpered and sobbed for a long time. That night, Yun Shan packed up the remains, walked to the depths of the wilderness with his nephew, burned a few stacks of paper money, and sacrificed his relatives and the past.
At this moment, the mansion of the King of Yong'an, resplendent and brightly lit, Xiuquan is talking with his parents, wife and children about the wind and admiring the moon. Occasionally, a man entered, took his pulse and watched, and asked Xiuquan with a smile if he could take medicine for a cold or flu?
Xiuquan also smiled, saying that his wife Lai Lianying said: "Lai Brother Hanying's medical Tao, the leader of the heavenly kingdom." ”
After more than a month of siege, the progress of the north road was slow, and Sai Shanga was helpless, and then ordered Xiang Rong to lead the north road. In order to boost the morale of the army, Saishang Asu went to Yangshuo and recruited generals to discuss and suppress.
Ulantai said: "My 40,000 people, digging deep trenches widely, locking them on all sides, waiting for their food to run out, annihilated in one fell swoop." ”
Xiang Rong said: "This side has been used many times, and they have all fled. I thought that the siege of the city would be que, besieged on three sides, ambushed and intercepted, and took advantage of the chaos to cover up and kill, so that it could be completely annihilated. ”
Sai Shang said to Yao Ying privately: "At both ends of Xiang and Wu, what do you think of Lord Shifu?" ”
Yao Ying said: "According to the words of Wudu, sit and kill the enemy." ”
"How long will you sit? 40,000 horses, food and salary, but a large number! ”
"I gambled for half a year, and after half a year, Yong'an City ran out of food."
Sai Shang said: "Jiang Zhong Yuanyi, rebel repeatedly broke through, and I only dared to chase the tail but did not dare to hit the head." After tiptoeing far away to the military gate, he looked for an opportunity to annihilate his rear team, and rebelled against the main force, and let it go. I ordered to cut off the head to the military gate, and the Udu Tong swept the tail, and the other armies attacked and killed from the waist, and they would collapse if they rebelled. ”
Yao Ying let out a long sigh and said, "It's a great strategy. People's hearts are moving together, this is the strength of the thief, and my shortcomings are also. Soldiers from all walks of life, only Xiang Junmen and Wudutong can compete with the rebellion. However, these two people are almost enemies, Zhongpingwei, Ulantai was defeated, and Xiang Rong was late to save him. On the battlefield of Guancun, Xiang Rong was almost gone, and Ulantai did not send a single soldier. I tried to reconcile in the middle, but I had no choice but to accumulate deep grievances; Face and heart, Aneng hand in hand! ”
Saizanne said: "This is a discord, it is to die quickly!" Half a year later, my 40,000 troops rushed out, rebellious against the mountain trails, and rebelled against more than 10,000 old, weak, sick, disabled women and children. At that time, I will move my camp to the military gate and watch him kill the enemy. According to Lord Shifu, how can he break through? ”
Yao Ying said: "My 40,000 army, standing in the north and south, the west of the Dayao Mountain, the rebellion will be along the ancient Su rush to escape Zhaoping, the north of Guilin." ”
Sai Shang said: "So very good, Longliao Ridge, Xianhui Ridge area, canyon abyss, endless, I to Rong Zhaoping pinched the head, Ulantai Zhan Gusu rushed to the end, the rest of the army, in the middle of the attack, why worry about no victory!" I immediately played the saint, and after half a year, the Yue rebellion can be destroyed. ”
