Chapter 163: Zuo Zongtang Cleanses the Kingdom of Heaven (7)
The Taiping army was entrenched in Meizhou for two months, and the food and gunpowder were about to run out. Wang Haiyang urgently summoned the generals to discuss the way out.
Huang Xiaozi said: Detective, Bao Chao has arrived in Ganzhou, within five days, that is, he will arrive here, where to go, please His Royal Highness King Kang make a decision as soon as possible.
Wang Haiyangdao: In the current situation, only by entering Fujian and Zhejiang can we get rid of the demon army; Dozens of gunboats of the Yue Demon have arrived at Sanheba and are no longer possible to go south to Chaozhou and Fujian along the waterway.
Kaiwang Tan Tiyuan said: Zuo Zongtang and Chu troops are all gathered on the East Road, Bao Chao and the Jiangxi army have not arrived, the Yue army on the West Road is thin, the army is advancing westward, and then entering Xingning and peace, you can get rid of the demons; Then march into Guangzhou or fold into Guangxi, let me do as I wish.
Wang Haiyang said: Guangxi Chidi thousands of miles, poor as wash, I once followed the wing hall, rushed back and forth, and achieved nothing; The west road is not passable, do not discuss it again. I will gather heavy troops again, defeat the demon army on the East Road, and enter Fujian by taking advantage of the situation. I recently investigated, the left demon is in the east of the city Buddha Zigao, Taziao area rolling camp into the camp, taking advantage of its foothold is not stable, immediately surrounded and annihilated. Without further ado, let's move tonight. Kaiwang Tan Tiyuan rate one, from the grass pond path out of the lake top, double pit, to copy the horizontal diameter after the camp; The king Huang Penghou led the headquarters, crossed out of the Yellow Pit, and contained the demon army of Liu Dian in Jingtang and Bingcun. At the fifth watch, I immediately led the whole army to attack head-on, killing demons and demons.
The king Huang Peng was ordered, and after the march, he sent back his powerful henchmen and secretly told the Qing general Xiao Yasi nearby. Xiao Yasi didn't dare to slack off, and reported to Liu Dian overnight. When Liu Dianwen heard this, he was frightened, and immediately sent Gao Liansheng, Kang Guoqi, Liu Qingliang, Zhang Fuzhai, and Li Yaonan to Taziao to reinforce Huang Shaochun and Wang Debang.
At dawn, Wang Haiyang and Hu Yongxiang led an army all over the mountains and wilderness, brazenly besieging Taziao, with more than 40,000 people from the two armies, fighting for four hours, and dozens of rounds were duel, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner from defeat.
The Chu army was insufficient, and there was no reserve army, so Liu Dian was anxious.
The rebel general Ding Taiyang said: Lord Qiqi, I have a plan, but I can punish Wang for rebellion.
Liu Diandao: General Ding, please speak! Hurry up, please speak!
Ding Taiyang said: The one who takes the lead and pulls the yellow flag is the chief of Wang Haiyang; Adults volleyed their guns and took their own lives.
Liu Dian said: Capture the thief and capture the king first, this strategy is very good; General Ding immediately led a foreign gun team to find an opportunity to kill Chief Wang.
Ding Taiyang led the order, that is, dozens of foreign guns and several artillery pieces, aimed at the yellow dragon flag, and the guns were used together; For a while, I saw that the bullets were as dense as rain, and they were sent out together.
Wang Haiyang was busy commanding the army, and he didn't have time to dodge, so he fell in response.
Wang Haiyang was seriously injured, and it was inconvenient for Tan Tiyuan, Hu Yongxiang and others to fight again, so they gathered all the armies and retreated to Meizhou. Wang Haiyang hurt his brain, there was no medicine to treat, he was wheezing for two days, and he returned to the western sky. The generals elected King Tan Tiyuan as the commander-in-chief, and the heavenly general Hu Yongxiang as the president of the army.
When Tan Tiyuan, Hu Yongxiang, Huang Penghou, Huang Dwarf and others were planning to attack and defend, Bao's super army had already entered Xianggong Pavilion.
Hu Yongxiang said: Bao Demon Zhi, the west road has been blocked; The various departments of the demon army are approaching the edge of the city, with His Royal Highness the King, what are your plans?
Tan Tiyuan said: Bao Demon is new, the foothold is not stable, and the army will immediately move westward, from Xingning and peace to Guangxi.
The generals are also attached.
Hu Yongxiang said: Bao Chao's fierce army on the west road, plus Xi Baotian, Liu Shengxiang and Jiangxi's army, it is very difficult to break through; Even if they barely survived, it was difficult for the remnants of the army to enter Guangxi and run around in the barren land; The front drive of the wing hall is also a lesson for my rear car. The southwest Guangdong army is the weakest, I will, the army out of the city, gallop to Huangshazhang, turn through Fengshun, Chaozhou into Fujian, over Tianmu Mountain and into southern Anhui.
The yellow dwarf is also attached.
Tan Tiyuan, Huang Penghou and others were all afraid of Hu and Huang's two soldiers, and they reluctantly obeyed.
