Shi Dakai's army, all of them crossed to the south, Hu Linyi frowned a little, and said Duxing Adao: Last year, the thieves strife, we couldn't help but be happy; Today, there is a thief war, and I am afraid of myself. 100,000 thieves, mighty, along the river into Hubei, that is repaid. Shi went south, I can let go and attack, Duolong'a and Bao Chaobing went to the turn of Hubei and Anhui, and watched Chen Li Er's reverse movement. Li Xubin, Lu Shihui, Yang Zaifu, Peng Yulin, Waijiang, Neihu Water Division, the three-way army, jointly attacked Hukou, Hukou was obtained, the rivers and lakes were passed, Meijiazhou was also defeated, Jiujiang was completely desperate, and sooner or later it would be broken.

Duxing Adao: I heard Peng Yulin say that he swore not to die with Yang Zaifu, can the two of them have the revenge of killing their father and taking their wife?

Lin Yi sighed: Last year, he attacked Hanyang thieves, and the ship that Yulin was riding was destroyed by the reverse artillery. And then the knot was knotted.

Duxing Adao: I heard that Bao Chao sold his wife to join the army, and now he is accumulating silver taels just to redeem his wife, but there is such a thing.

Lin Yidao: I haven't heard of it, or there is.

Duxing smiled and said: Brother Lin has a way to resist thieves, I have a moment of leisure, discuss three or four, or it is like a dog who has lost his family and is running around.

Lin Yi hurriedly said: Brother Du has said too much! Without the capital brothers, how can they come to the thriving Chu Lake Jingxiang! You and I brothers work together, why worry about rebellion and immortality!

That night, Hu Linyi personally invited Yang Zaifu and Peng Yulin to eat and drink to persuade peace, but Peng and Yang Mian did not look down on them and were unmoved.

Lin Yi knelt down and asked: The world has been eroded to this point, and it really depends on the cooperation of the public and others. After that, tears flowed down my cheeks.

Yang and Peng suddenly were empowered, and they all knelt down and shouted: My generation is responsible for the palace protection! If there is any difference, there is no way to protect the emperor, and there is no way to protect the palace.

On October 24, 1857, Li Xubin threatened to search and suppress Susong and Taihu Lake, and then crossed the river and dived back at night, detouring to the mountain behind the mouth of the lake, hiding in the depths.

In the early morning of the 25th, Peng Yulin's inner lake water division in the south and Yang Zaifu's Yangtze River water division in the north, attacked Hukou at the same time. The Taiping Army's depot caught fire and exploded, and the fireworks soared into the sky, shaking the earth.

Huang Wenjin saw that the situation was not good, and abandoned the city. The defenders of Meijiazhou also retreated without a fight.

The mouth of the small pond and the mouth of the lake are recovered, the lake in the outer river is finally passed, Hu Linyi is very happy, and he says: The battle of the mouth of the lake, sweeping the hole of the danger and solidification in the year, and the road of the water division in the lake in the outer river. And Xuncheng is precarious, lonely and helpless, not only the gateway of Jiangxi can be guaranteed, but the overall situation of the southeast can be mapped. Now we are stepping on water and land, focusing on Jiujiang, in order to build east and quickly sweep away the demonic atmosphere.

Li Xubin privately said that Hu Linyi said: At present, Di Gong has not come out, and the armies of Hunan and Chu are like babies leaving their mothers. If Xuncheng is recovered and Hubei is cleared, there is a chance to drive for a long time. And those who have no authority in the army will preside over it, and who dares to take the opportunity to advance rashly. The relationship between the general trend of the southeast and the courage of the generals and soldiers depend on the two dukes. With Digong in the army, there is no worry about the road ahead; There is a public in Hubei, and the back road can be used to meet the needs of help. If the cardinal's proposal does not pay the prince to the authority, then the prince must not come out, and the strong support of the public independence is also a private worry.

Hu Linyi said: This is true, my brother is thoughtful, and I can't do it. Shi Zhida opened a rage in eastern Jiangxi, and only Di Gong could be controlled.

Hu Linyi said nothing, and immediately went to the sparse: Shi reversed Dakai, 100,000 troops, surging into Jiangxi. Nanchang is in danger! Zeng Guofan was stationed in Jiangxi for two years, and knew the generals and soldiers; It is advisable to move filial piety and be loyal, and go out to do things. When the stone reversal first arrived, fortunately, the opportunity could be taken, and the overall situation in the southeast should not be lost.

The next day, Lin Yi was sparse again: Li Xubin, Yang Zaifu, and Peng Yulin were strict and strong, and they were outnumbered, and they could not be dispatched by generals in other provinces. And the affairs of the military are made up of one, and scattered in two or three. Counsel can be made by everyone, and the decision must be attributed to one general, which is a great military comparison. Wechen has been ill recently, and occasionally coughs up blood; Zeng Guo's affairs have been in trouble for a long time, or he can be a rebel.

Emperor Xianfeng said: Zeng Guofan has been away from the camp for a long time, and it is appropriate to enter the suppression now, whether it can be sure of it, it is not yet known, if he goes to Xun to supervise, I am afraid that it will take time, turn the army's heart, and it is advisable to temporarily guard the ceremonial house. Cantonese bandits are in second strife, and the army is disheartened; The stone is reversed, and the army is outstanding, and it is difficult to become a big trouble. The general of Xi'an, Fuxing, and the governor of Jiangxi, Qi Ling, should take advantage of the fact that their hearts are weak, and try to disperse their party opinion, so that the contrarian trend will become isolated, and they will be quickly captured, and the thieves in Jiangxi will inevitably collapse when they hear the wind.

When Zeng Guofan heard the emperor's intentions, he roamed around the house and sighed for a long time.

Xiaochikou, Hukou and Meijiazhou are all lost, and Jiujiang has no barrier; Zhenjiang Fu was in a hurry again, Hong Xiuquan panicked, and ordered Chen Yucheng and Wei Jun to help Xun; Then Li Xiucheng led an army by himself and galloped to save Zhenjiang.

Wei Jun led the order to attack the mouth of the lake from Jingdezhen. Li Xubin divided Li Xuyi's 5,000 Hunan army to block, the two armies took over, Xuyi showed weakness head-on, set up ambushes on both sides, and won two victories over Wei Jun. Wei Jun lost his troops and did not dare to fight again.

Xiucheng sent troops to aid the town, Yucheng was too busy to take care of himself, in order to stabilize the war situation, and then joined forces with the Han League to advocate Lexing, hoping to resist the Qing Dynasty as one.

Zhang Lexing agreed, and Gong Deshu, the military advisor and the owner of the white flag, also agreed; However, Liu Yongjing, the owner of the Blue Flag, hesitated.

Zhang Lexing said: I don't listen to the tune, I share the blessings, and the difficulties are the same, why not?

Gong Deshu said: Fengyang practiced demon Miao Peilin, with more than 50,000 soldiers, and after disturbing me, I can use the power of Chen's army to completely annihilate this demon.

Zhang Lexing said: Miao Peilin's old son, attached to the head of Shengbao, intercepted two Huai money, grain, taxes, and gold; Build a high village, accumulate grain, and dominate one side. This guy was originally my account master, and he came to consult yesterday, and he said that he would not violate each other, that is, he would commit a crime, and he would also be superficial, and he would not move his muscles and bones. This person has a knife in his smile, capricious, and cannot be shared. When there is leisure, he will take the dog's head.

That night, Liu Yongjing, the owner of the Blue Flag, left the camp without authorization and was killed by Zhang Lexing and Gong Deshu. Seeing that the situation was not good, the red and black flags returned to Huaibei with the rest of the blue flags.

In late October 1857, Gong Deshu led the White Flag Twist Army, attacked from Lu'an, Liankehuo Mountain, Dushan, Li Mengqun was defeated, retreated to Mabu, and asked for help Shengbao and Yuan Jiasan.

At the end of the month, the minister Shengbao and Yuan Jiasan, the left deputy of the Imperial Palace, led the army into Anhui, Kelu'an, and trapped Huoshan. Gong Deshu was not supported, and he was defeated and retreated.

Chen Yucheng failed to aid Xun, the maneuver was not smooth, and he was repeatedly attacked by Duolonga and Bao Chao, and his strength was not enough, so he joined forces with Wei Jun and aided Gong Deshu in the north, and fought Kehuo Mountain. Chen and Wei agreed: Abandon Anhui to enter Henan, raise grain and raise troops. The next day, the Taiping army abandoned Huoshan and marched north to Dushan, Lianghekou and Yejiaji, and in six days, Chen Wei's army entered Gushi, Henan.

Chen Yucheng and Wei Jun accompanied the northern criminals, Sheng Bao, Yuan Jiasan, and Li Mengqun were all shocked, and immediately dispatched soldiers and generals to gallop to Gushi.

Shi Dakai led the troops to leave Beijing, Zhenjiang was tight, Wu Ruxiao's department, had been besieged by Hechun for half a year, there was little food in the city, each person only sent half a tael of rice every day, everyone was yellow and thin, Wu Ruxiao was anxious day and night, and was at a loss. Xiuquan sent Anwang Hong Renfa and Shi Tianyi Li Shixian to lead 20,000 military aids, Zhang Guoliang intercepted and fought halfway, Hong Renfa was ignorant of war, and he was defeated and returned to Tianjing; Li Shixian retreated to Longtan, reorganized 10,000 troops, and wanted to help the east again.

Zhang Guoliang did not wait for his attack, dived into Longtan at night, attacked in the morning, and sent Hu Kunyuan to attack in a roundabout way. Li Shixian was caught off guard and retreated in a hurry.

Wu Ruxiao decided to break through and return to Beijing, and informed Guazhou guard general Qin Xizhang of this intention. At midnight on December 27, Wu Ruxiao personally led the main force to attack the high-level defense line of the Qing army, covering the retreat of Hutou Mountain and Mopan Mountain soldiers into Zhenjiang. He also ordered Wang Tiyuan, the sixth inspector on the right, to lead a group to stay at the West Gate, contain the Qing army, and lead an army of 20,000 to withdraw quietly. The defenders of Kua Chau also withdrew at the same time.

In the morning, the spring harvest was empty, and the pursuit was immediately pursued; Zhang Guoliang heard that he also came out of Longtan, and the east and west were attacked. The capture and killing of the deputy prime minister Zhang Yiyi and the inspection of Huang Dawen, the Taiping army was in chaos, but fortunately Li Xiucheng's reinforcements arrived, and Wu Ruxiao's troops were able to withdraw to the periphery of Tianjing to rest.

Zhenjiang Kefu, General Jiangning and Chun Shangshu: The minions are in charge of the Jiangnan River, first thwarting the thieves and fierce fronts, and then cutting off their help, so as to become a fish at the bottom of the kettle. And the large number of festivals to come to the aid, the momentum is very rampant, all of them are ready to fight, cut the surplus and clean up, and use it to overcome the momentum.

Jiangbei Qinchen Dexing A Yijuan: Guazhou is the throat of the north and south, and the Kajiang locks the yin, which is called dangerous since ancient times. The Cantonese bandits have been defending for five years now, and since Qishan and Tuo Ming Ah Shishi, they have besieged it with all their might, but they can't cover their lair. The slave has been in office for two years, and he has not been allowed to take a step, nor has he been allowed to plunder the grain, and now he has taken advantage of his hunger and fatigue to overcome it with a drum.

Emperor Xianfeng was happy, rewarded and Chun's eyes were dazzling, and the prince was added to the young protection, and he was given the post of captain of Dexing. The two were ordered to march north and south and attack Jinling together.

Harmony and spring are sparse: Ninety-six miles around Jinling, strong and strong, the first in the world. Hong rebels are the old nest, negative for five years, and its hundred fierce thieves, such as Yang Xiuqing, Wei Changhui, etc., have slaughtered each other, and there are still many fierce elite ants. In terms of the number of soldiers and the situation of the thieves, there is neither an attacking side nor the power to besiege. Only step by step, from the southeast to the west gate, choke its key points, cut off its help, such as the weight of Zhenjiang to strangle the high capital, gradually advance, the attack is certain. Li Zhixiu became the department, arrived from Anhui, and the shares were plundered back and forth from Jinzhuguan and Xiaodanyang. Echoing with the liaison with the Li Shixian Department in southern Anhui, he claimed that Lishui, Gaochun, and Dongba were committed. Our department only has Xun Ke Moling, and if we seize it, all roads can be safe, and our division can also attack Yuhuatai.

Dexing A Yishu: Now the thieves in Jiangpu are entrenched in the heart of the river with the nest of thieves in Jiuhuanzhou, and secretly communicate the news of Jinling. The minions and others have now marched into the army as a whole, step by step, cutting off their foreign aid, cutting off their grain routes, and moving to Pukou, and discussing with Hechun and other letters.

Emperor Xianfeng ordered Dexing Anan to attack Jiangpu, and Chunbei to attack Moling Pass, and the general Huang Bin of the Navy Division controlled the river, entered Jiuhuanzhou, and He Guiqing, the governor of Liangjiang, provided food and wages.

He Chundu led the general army Fu Zhenbang and Hu Kunyuan to attack Moling Pass. He also ordered Zhang Guoliang to enter the Ming Tomb with the general soldiers An Tai and Li Ruozhu to peek at Zhong Mountain; Then Zhang Yuliang, Zhou Tianpei, and Feng Zicai were stationed in Yaofangmen and Xianhemen, thinking that they should respond.

The soldiers pressed the city, Li Xiucheng did not dare to slack off, personally went to Moling Pass, dispatched troops, strengthened the supply line of Yinxiang, built a fortress, and strengthened the stronghold outside the pass, wanting to make long-term plans.

Jiangbei camp, Dexing'a, Weng Tongshu also did not slack off, leading troops to attack Pukou.

Weng Tongshu said: Pukou is twenty miles away from Jiangpu County, and the Gangling Mountains are connected during it. The Manchu and Han defense troops are stationed in the north of Pukou City, and their Jintangmen and other places also set up several camps, and Jinling Yifeng Gate outside the lower pass across the river, behind the mountain is the northeast Chongqu, if the thieves of Jiangpu cross the Huangyueling from the north of the city, they can commit Quanjiao in the north, and disturb Liuhe in the east. The Jiuhuanzhou thief army, in the reeds in the middle of the river, is connected with Xiaguan and Qilizhou on the south bank, and the big slip goes straight to the south bank, and the sailor is not near Qilizhou and Xiaguan, and it is reversed, and there is no way to attack.

Dexing Adao: Attack from the Pukou Yuanjiang, and don't cut off its west road with heavy troops, and prevent it from escaping from the mountains from Huangyueling.

In the inner city of Tianjing, Xiuquan heard the rumbling of cannons and the sound of killing, his heart trembled, and he was extremely tormented; This time, what a sad word.
