Chapter 9 Zeng Guoquan

The two brothers, Xi Baotian and Xi Baolin, all rushed to the bottom of the mountain in a daze, and it took half an hour before they turned around.

"Second brother, you go and order, how many people do we have. ”

Xi Baolin took the order, and finally came back with a sad face: "Big brother, we only have a total of seven or eight hundred people on hand now, and there are only about a hundred musketeers. It's over, it's all over. ”

The Hunan army is not a very formed army.

There are large and small hills inside.

In this, if there is a gun, it is the king of grass.

Everyone has their own soldiers.

If a person's soldiers and horses are damaged, his position is also damaged.

Xi Baotian listened and narrowed his eyes: "Don't be afraid, we still have seven or eight hundred people." In these years, if you casually catch some strong men, people are not afraid, but they have to make some more Western muskets, which is not easy to do. It's hard to make money. ”

"I thought you were talking about something. It's not easy to get silver. Xi Baolin heaved: "When the time comes, we will find a random county seat and rob a few more rich families." It is said that these rich people hooked up with Long Hair and copied their property, and they didn't get it. ”

Xi Baolin was telling the truth.

Zeng Guofan and his men often did this kind of thing when they were fighting the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

For example, Zeng Guofan's younger brother Zeng Guoquan often found a place to rob the money of this place, kill the people of this place, and finally burn this place directly with a fire.

Zeng Guofan, Zeng Guoquan and his subordinates, on the one hand, kept slaughtering, turning the densely populated area of southern Jiangsu into a peopleless place. On the one hand, the scorched earth policy was implemented, turning the fertile fields into places where it was impossible to farm.

Zeng Guofan, whose hands were stained with human blood, was known as Zeng Shaved Head.

It is said that this incident was also very appreciated by Hu Linyi, who praised: "Let the thief be like a fish without water and a horse without grass." can say that the massacre is a praise, which shows how shameless Hu Linyi is.

Of course, Hu Linyi himself was a dog of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and of course the dog was shameless.

However, in the history books of later generations, these massacres have never been recorded, nor these words of Hu Linyi.

On the contrary, he vigorously said that Zeng Guofan, the butcher, and Hu Linyi, a traitor, were positive.

They're a ghost!

Xi Baotian smiled, too, now with the aftermath of the victory over the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, they can rectify whatever they want, and some rich families are nothing: "But even if we recruit people again, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat the weird and unpredictable young king." Why don't we report it right away. ”

"Good. ”

......

Zeng Guoquan, the second person in the Hunan Army.

Zeng Shaved the younger brother of the big butcher, of course, Zeng Guoquan himself is also a super butcher.

For example, when Zeng Guoquan captured Anqing, he killed more than 10,000 prisoners of the Taiping Army in half a day.

Zeng shaved his head and immediately replied: "You have already led the army, so naturally you want to kill thieves, why do you regret killing so much?"

It can be seen that Zeng Guofan's cruelty and killing far exceeded that of his ninth brother Zeng Guoquan.

Zeng Guoquan has been complacent recently, after he captured Tianjing, he called his subordinates, killed in Tianjing for more than a month, and also robbed frantically for more than a month. For more than a month, he was about to go crazy.

He earned tens of millions of taels of silver, more than the Manchu Qing Dynasty's tax revenue in a year.

In addition to silver, there were a lot of other things.

Now there are thousands of boats and hundreds of boats in the Yangtze River, full of returned goods and women, and a lot of them are for Zeng Guoquan to transport.

Zeng Guoquan couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing, and smugness flashed in his heart.

He's the big husband now.

Kill countless people, whether it is the common people or the Taiping army.

robbed countless money, whether it was the original Taiping army or the common people.

Countless women were taken captive, and most of them belonged to the common people.

Moreover, although he did not pay homage to the prime minister, it was not far off.

He now understood Temujin's words in particular, killing countless enemies and taking their wives and children captive.

At this moment, he saw Xi Baotian and Xi Baolin walking in, both of whom were his right-hand men, and he nodded.

"My lord, I have discovered the young king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. ”

"Oh, I found Hong Tianguifu's kid, then bring it up, Hong Xiuquan's son, hehehehe. Zeng Guoquan couldn't help but let out a creepy laugh.

"No, I didn't bring it. Xi Baotian lowered his head and said with some embarrassment: "This time Hong Tianguifu is very evil. First, Bato of the Green Battalion rushed up with 2,000 men, but several hundred died and were cut back. ”

"Then, we'll rush up with the men again. The first to rush up were the brothers with knives and spears, and these brothers went to cut Hong Tianguifu. found that he couldn't cut him. ”

"This young king claims to be possessed by his Heavenly Father, and Vajra is not bad. ”

"As a result, my second brother hit him with a musket, and he was able to get in. However, to the point where he can be impressed, his injuries are definitely not high. ”

Then we bombarded him with five hundred musketeers. Unexpectedly, he approached our musket unit with all kinds of twists and turns, and defeated us. ”

When Zeng Guoquan heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "You mean, the young king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, has evil arts? Cold weapons can't hurt him, and muskets can't hurt him seriously." You took five hundred musketeers, with Western muskets, and you were defeated by him?"

"Yes, but he must have been injured. Xi Baotian said.

"Are you stupid for me? There is also evil magic, if there is really evil magic, we have fought with the Taiping army for so long, and we have never heard of it. Zeng Guoquan sneered.

"My lord, there really is. Otherwise, why would we not be able to deal with the young king of the Taiping army with 2,000 soldiers and horses, and 500 musketeers in the middle. ”

"It's really weird. Zeng Guoquan thought secretly: "Okay, let me go and meet this young king for a while." If it were someone else, it would be fine, but if the Young Heavenly King did not die, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would not be completely destroyed, and he would definitely die. ”

Zeng Guoquan quickly ordered 10,000 cold weapon troops and 3,000 musket troops to go to the area of Shicheng to prepare to arrest He Xuan.

He really didn't believe it! The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom lost even the Heavenly Kyoto, and one by one all the kings were cut down.

What kind of young king is left, what the hell can you play!

......

Stone City on the barren hills.

After He Xuan defeated this wave of people, he took out more than a dozen bullets from his body, about half of these bullets remained in his body, and it was very painful when he pulled it out, but it was acceptable.

And at this time, the constitution of up to nine points comes into play.

Physique is not only physical strength, but also resilience and the like.

He Xuan's wound, he didn't need to do anything at all, he stopped the bleeding, and it is estimated that it will not take a few days for this wound to be healed.

He Xuan was idle, so he simply picked up a few muskets on the ground, and a few of them were held and played with by himself, planning to send a few of them to Donghou Dongxiao to let her defend herself. Then he strode towards the mountain where the winter seedlings were hidden.

A moment later, we arrived at the cave.

Inside the cave, there was no sound at all.

It's like there's none.

He Xuan remembered that when he first crossed over, he and Dong Xiaomiao were the same, hiding in the cave, and there was footsteps outside, so Dong Xiaomiao immediately called himself silent.

"Xiao Miao, it's me. It's back. ”

Hearing this, footsteps were heard from inside the cave.

Dong Xiaomiao ran out in a hurry, and as soon as she saw He Xuan, she immediately pounced on He Xuan's body, her delicate and delicate body, quite a little forbearing, and then broke away from He Xuan's arms, and carefully looked at He Xuan's body: "Young Heavenly King, what are you ...... Loophole. You're hurt. ”

"It's a little hurt, but it doesn't matter. He Xuan's feeling of injury is also quite novel, in the second half of the Ming Dynasty, he was no longer injured, and during the Song Dynasty, he was not injured at all, but he didn't expect that at the end of the Qing Dynasty, something could hurt himself.

"How can it be okay, this is a gun. The Qing army under the mountain has discovered you, the young king. Dong Xiaomiao said nervously: "Then let's run away, run away." ”

"Escape, what escape. The two Qing armies at the foot of the mountain were defeated by me, but I almost killed their musketeers. But they were shot more than a dozen times. The musket can still hurt me. He Xuan briefly described the process of the battle.

After winter, the winter seedlings were dumbfounded.

It's so exciting!

The Young Heavenly King is really the Father of Heaven!

That's amazing!

"If it were an ordinary person, the Qing army would probably forget it. But our Taiping Army still has some remnants everywhere. The king Li Shixian, the king Tan Tiyuan, the king Lai Wenguang, as well as Li Wencai and Yang Fuqing, all have some strength, and Jiajia also has tens of thousands of people. If I, the young king, don't die, then the Manchus must not be able to sleep in peace. ”

"So, after a while, more Qing troops should come. I guess I'll have to fight them again. ”

"Young Heavenly King, we can escape. Why do you have to be here. ”

Now that our Taiping Army has basically been wiped out, we are going to throw ourselves to Li Shixian and the others, they are all on the plains, which is not conducive to their own performance. And the southern part of Jiangxi is full of mountains, mountains and mountains, and I can give full play to my greatest advantages here. So, you can't run away, and you don't have to run away. He Xuan touched Dong Xiaomiao's head: "Okay, you little head melon seeds, you don't have to think about something." ”

"Everything has me. ”

"I'm going to fight guerrilla warfare with the Qing army for a period of time here. When the enemy advances, I retreat, and when the enemy retreats, I advance. Let them understand that they can't kill me, the young king. Then, little by little, it became stronger and smashed the Qing Dynasty. He Xuan sneered.

Dong Xiaomiao saw He Xuan's confident eyes, and nodded hurriedly.

The Young King is the Father of Heaven, and he is right!

"I just don't know where the sister of the queen of spring and the queen of summer is. ”

Sister Autumn Queen is dead, don't think about it anymore.

Alas, these troubled times!
