Chen Qingzhu, the current chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society, is He Xuan's concubine herself, and she is naturally the first to receive the news. She sent the news back to the Heaven and Earth Society, and the people of the Heaven and Earth Society were first stunned when they heard it, and then they were overjoyed.

"Great. Half of the elite of the Qing court were destroyed in the battle on Duwan Island. ”

"This was the biggest blow the Qing court had ever encountered. ”

"The Taiping Heavenly Congress was rebuilt!"

The political propositions of the Heaven and Earth Society are actually not exactly the same as those of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

However, there is one thing that is the same for everyone.

That's ...... Anti-Qing and regain sight!

Not only the Heaven and Earth Society, but also many active forces have gathered in the vicinity. For example, the Little Knife Society, the White Lotus Sect and the like. They were all well-informed and got the news very quickly.

The young king of the Taiping army is completely invincible, and he is no longer afraid of the power of bullets!

Defeat the elite of the Qing army.

This news one by one also blew up the people of the Little Knife Society and the White Lotus Sect.

Awesome!

That's awesome!

They naturally have different philosophies from the Taiping Army.

However, before the Qing court was defeated, everyone could join forces.

......

Between Guangdong and Guangxi, there are 100,000 mountains.

Cheongju City, on the other hand, is a city backed by the mountains.

Li Shixian, the servant of the Taiping army, with 10,000 soldiers and horses, lived in this city.

The equipment of Li Shixian's soldiers and horses is actually not as good as the part of Duwan.

His level of use of troops is also very far from that of the famous loyal king Li Xiucheng.

Fortunately, the Qing soldiers in this area are also the green battalions of rotten things.

Everybody's rotten for rotten.

The king Li Shixian also thought about it, in case the Qing army really transferred the main force over, he immediately took the soldiers and horses to drill into the mountains behind, anyway, he also had several secret bases in the mountains, storing a large amount of food, as well as some firearms and bullets.

At this time, a person suddenly came to report: "Good news, great news." ”

"What's the news?" asked Li Shixian. He couldn't imagine that there would be any good news in the near future.

"At the headquarters of the Taiping Army on the other side of Duwan Island, the Qing court sent most of the elite to attack. However, it is said that the young king is stronger again. Even bullets can't hurt him. ”

"The Qing army was defeated, the famous general Zeng Guoquan of the Qing army was taken captive, other soldiers and horses were basically wiped out, and 20,000 Qing troops took refuge in the Young Heavenly King. ”

"Our Taiping Army has won a great victory!"

When the king Li Shixian heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Good, good, good." ”

He is here to be his own king-in-waiting, and no one is in charge of him, so he is naturally comfortable. However, as soon as the main force of the Qing army came, he definitely had to flee. It will be uncomfortable then.

And the main force of the Taiping army was actually able to defeat the main force of the Qing army! This is great news for the prince Li Shixian. As long as the Taiping Army wins the world, he will serve the king Li Shixian, and now he is a high-level, and he will not be a high-level later.

"Someone, go immediately to the headquarters of Duwan Island and send a very generous gift. Congratulations to the main side for their victory. And it shows that our part will always be the young king's centaurs. Listen to the dispatch of the young king at any time. Li Shixian said.

"Yes. ”

Li Wencai's department in Guizhou, Lai Wenguang's department in Shandong, and the Taiping soldiers and horses of these two divisions heard the news that the main force of Duwan Island had won. After the shock, it was also a great joy. One by one, they all had to send congratulatory letters to the main force over there.

......

Only the Qing court is here.

On this day, the Qing court held the usual early dynasty.

Emperor Tongzhi was there in front of a puppet.

Cixi continued her curtain to listen to the government.

The ministers of the court continued to mix their own days.

However, there were a few ministers with military affairs in their hands, and they did not look very good when they walked in.

"There is something to report, and there is nothing to retreat. Li Lianying, the big eunuch, said in a sharp voice.

"The minister has something to do. Zeng Guofan said in a deep voice: "The younger brother led 100,000 elites to attack the remnants of the Taiping army on Duwan Island. There were few ships and it was difficult to travel, so many large ships were borrowed from Westerners. Transported 70,000 people to Stay Bay Island. I thought it could be decided by a war. ”

Unexpectedly, on the side of the Taiping Army, there is really a great strangeness. Their young king is already not afraid of bullets. According to the news from the surviving people over there, it is said that the Young Heavenly King can have two pillars of incense a day, and he can wear a layer of light gold light on his body. In this golden light stage, he is not afraid of bullets at all. And the elite of our army was also lost in this battle. ”

"What!"

"What!"

"What!" The biggest surprise came from the Empress Dowager Cixi, who was listening to the government behind the curtain.

When it came to Emperor Tongzhi, the twelve-year-old little emperor, he was still a little confused. It stands to reason that at the age of twelve, it is time to start taking care of some things. But Cixi grasped power quite ruthlessly, and always cultivated Emperor Tongzhi to the stupid emperor. Tongzhi is also relatively stupid. He doesn't know anything about politics except for flirting with palace maids now.

"The mourning family entrusted more than half of the elite of the Qing Dynasty to your Zeng family, asking you to exterminate the last remnants of the Taiping army. You will give such an answer to the mourners. Hateful, hateful, hateful!"

Zeng Guofan couldn't help but feel the pain of the egg, at this critical moment, this woman was still entangled in this kind of problem. It's really not an atmospheric person.

"No, what do you say, this young king of the Taiping Army, he has two pillars of incense a day and is not afraid of bullets. Can people not be afraid of bullets?"

Zeng Guofan bowed his head: "Obviously, the young king of the Taiping Army can no longer be defined by the concept of people. ”

"What about the two pillars of incense, he is not afraid of bullets. Why is Zeng Guoquan so useless. will not kill the young king of the Taiping army outside of time. The Empress Dowager Cixi asked above.

"The young king of the Taiping army is not a dead thing, he can move. And it moves faster than a fast horse. Every time he fought, he only played a pillar of incense for more than a little time, and left immediately. Our people can't keep up with him. Zeng Guofan bowed his head and said.

"Then what do you say?" asked the Empress Dowager Cixi.

"The minister thinks that the time has come to vigorously train the new army. Western-style muskets didn't have much effect on the Young Heavenly King, though. But cold weapons are completely useless. Zeng Guofan said: "If the Taiping Army is really killed, the young king of the Heavenly Heaven." Well, the Westerners should be pleased. I heard that in the Western countries, there is a thing that is far more powerful than ordinary muskets. That thing is called a machine gun by Westerners. ”

When the Empress Dowager Cixi heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised: "What, there is still a thing in the West that is powerful above the musket, what is it called a machine gun? In this way, there is no need to go to the Western countries. ”

Zeng Guofan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "That thing is said to be a high-end weapon in the West. The West has always sold us only weapons that are a generation behind. How can such a high-end weapon be sold. ”
