When he hurriedly hurriedly led the men and horses to the city of Yidu, it was clear that the fighting and fighting in the city were particularly raging; and the person who opened the door to respond also said that Wang Shifan, as the commander of the army, had already failed to urge him and fled into the son. The city was trapped and waited for foreign aid to arrive first. Therefore, while he intensively occupied the south gate of Yidu City, Yidu stepped up liaison with Zhang Chan, the evil known inland, in order to coordinate the final offensive.
However, he never imagined that at the end of the time when it was obvious that the overall situation was determined and the other party had nothing to do, there would still be a reversal change, or that God could not see the smooth wind and smooth flow of his days, and he decided to be here. Played a big joke on him.
However, Wang Jingwu, who thought he could not afford to be seriously ill, suddenly appeared on the top of the city. He counted the names of the soldiers and generals who participated in Zhang Chan's rebellion on the spot, as well as the kindness that he had been with for many years. And the act of attracting foreign enemies; as a result, the generals who said on the spot were ashamed and someone immediately turned against him in an uproar, and when they turned around, they tied up and killed Zhang Chan who was still overseeing the battle in the rear.
Then the same enemy launched an aggressive multi-faceted flanking and counterattack against the Eastern Capital Army coming from afar outside the city. The result was that the Eastern Capital Army, who came lightly and did not carry much equipment and equipment, could not resist it for a while and was impulsively defeated. Zhu Lao San didn't see it well, and both the Divine Sword and Feiyun who acted as Huwei rushed forward to stabilize the situation;
However, the next moment, Wang Jingwu, who was extremely ill in the secret report, also led the pro-fighting army with a helmet and armor, bypassing the city wall from the north and rushing out on horseback. Seeing that the increase was higher than this, it was even Zhu’s hiss. Fighting hard can no longer restore the overall decline. In the end, it was Wang Wu, the commander of Feihuang Capital, who was the only establishment of firearms, and led the soldiers who had lost their mobility mounts to stay behind and drag the enemy back.
Zhu Laosan and most of his remaining troops were able to temporarily retreat and retreat; however, at this time, the defenders in the towns and towns along the way who were originally afraid of foreign forces but did not dare to leave behind closed doors. The members of He Tu Tuan and Xiang Bing also seemed to be encouraged and called upon, and they rushed to attack and harass the retreating Eastern Capital Army.
Although these mosquitoes and gadfly-like existences that smell of blood can really pose little threats and casualties to the retreating Eastern Capital Army, at most only some equipment and horses, etc.; but once they are affected by these It was all disgusting people entangled for a moment; some cavalry of the Pinglu Army caught up and fell into the situation of nine deaths.
Therefore, even if Zhu Lao San is in the midst of fighting and walking, the old brothers Zhu Zhen, Hu Zhen and others who have succeeded in succession have also been lost or washed away, and only the long straight guards and halls are left beside them. Zidu and Bashandu are a small group of incomplete men and horses. At this moment, in addition to his upset and regret, he also had an unprecedented thorough understanding of the Taiping Army's strategy.
Why does the Taiping Army, as long as it has time and spare energy, would rather take the risk of causing local chaos and violence, and also liquidate and judge those local forces that don’t seem to have much direct interest, and it takes a lot of effort and effort to replace them? My own people, or from the middle and lower classes of the people, the real reason and good intentions of re-supporting the people close to them.
As the saying goes, whether it is not broken or established, is there any reason to suffer from it anymore. Usually it may seem insignificant or unnecessary, but at the critical moment of turning into a slump or falling into a disadvantage, these easily succumbed walls can easily become one of their most deadly hindrances and resistances. The corpses of the subordinates who had been stripped off all the way were the most direct price.
And his escape was one day and one night, during which he was exhausted and fell three horses, only to temporarily shake off the figure of Pinglu chasing soldiers in the renewed blizzard; but the soldiers following him There are already less than two thousand people; and they are exhausted and hungry and thirsty, and there are people who are passively stiffened and suddenly fall off their horses in the process of marching.
Therefore, when he wiped away the ice on the telescope, and saw the Dongdu military flag still swaying on the distant city, it was inevitable that he went from being insensitive to unconsciousness. Up, to the next two lines of tears that freeze quickly. Because, there are these frost-covered subordinates around him, I'm afraid they can't go far.
Soon after, Laosan Zhu was able to lean on the battlement of Fengxuejianwen, feeling the security brought by the cold, strong and rough city defenses, and swallowing the hot soup until it was thick. The pungent taste of heavy oil and heavy salt bloomed in the tongue that was almost numb and unconscious, and then I felt that there was no place for the cold whole person, as if it slowly became alive and vivid.
When he sent troops to pass by Linyi, the city of Yizhou (now Linyi City, Shandong), he sent people to the spot to watch food, which became the key to life-saving at this last moment. With the evidence of this medium-sized city, even the men and horses pursued by the Ping Lu army several times over can calmly deal with it, and even use this to repair and gather the remnant and scattered soldiers who have fled back, but it is unfortunate. Just in case.
However, after the sky lighted up again, I risked my death and sent out to gather and contact the squad of the remnants scattered outside. Not only did they bring back ten times more than one’s own troops who were scattered and left behind, they also brought back a somewhat difficult one for Zhu Lao San. Believing news; the Pinglu army, which had been chasing behind, suddenly stopped in Wangting Town, twenty or thirty miles away.
Then, this brigade of soldiers and horses under the banner of "King of Qi" and "Pinglu" waited in vain for most of the day without advancing, retreating, or fighting or leaving. Therefore, Wei Shi is also a little puzzled, but the Pinglu cavalry patrols so tightly that these horses can't get close to peeping and inquiring about more specific reasons.
However, hearing the description of this situation, Zhu Laosan, based on years of experience and intuition of military births and deaths, suddenly felt a little keenly. This was probably not because of some unexpected situation and variables in the Pinglu Army. Therefore, after spending an afternoon of thinking and thinking, finally made up his mind to personally lead the 2,000 people who still have mounts among the remaining 3,000 people, and launch overnight against the Pinglu army camp stationed in Wating Town. Tentative raid.
At this moment, he was almost driven by some inexplicable strength and obsession. He just did what he said, cooked enough food in a short time, prepared armor and weapons, and made people carry an extra pack of flammable fires. Oil; and galloping away in the dim twilight after nightfall, disappearing in droves in the wind and snow that was re-hanging up.
The distance of twenty or thirty miles from Linyi City to Wangting Town is something that is not felt for the remnants who are fleeing, but for this raid team with the rank of night, it is an extra long trot. After walking for more than three hours, I was able to vaguely see the Pinglu Army Camp that surrounds Wating Town in the distance, swimming with the light from the light.
And at such a step, Zhu Lao San seems to have no other retreat; either he succeeds in attacking the camp and finds out the enemy's reality, or he is destroyed here with the last bit of capital, and he is full of regret and unwillingness. One hundred and a hundred; but at least for the sake of having fought and died, his wife and children can already get a better result in the new dynasty.
In the next moment, these men and women were motivated by his hopes and promises to break the enemy's shame. Under the cover of the wind and snow, they were close enough to be within a few dozen steps of the outer fence of the camp, and then they started to trot; It was as if it had come out of thin air with thousands of troops and horses rushing in the dark, rushing fiercely against the outer wall, and throwing packets of ignited kerosene into the camp of the Pinglu Army.
However, the response and response of the Pinglu Army were also somewhat unexpected; in the face of sudden attacks from outside, the flood of fire, and the ubiquitous shouts of killing, they did not hesitate to whistle and blow around on the spot. Camp, exploded. Therefore, just an hour later, Zhu Laosan, who was covered in blood and frozen into a hard state, rushed into Wangting Town surrounded by a group of guards covered in smoke and fire. The Chinese army where Wang Qi and Zhuban honor guards are located.
And here, apart from the scattered flags, books, books and accounts, there are only a group of Wen Zuo staff who have not had time to escape; and from these obviously abandoned people of all colors, Zhu Laosan knows what happened before. Some dramatic scenes. It was probably the Qi King Wang Jingwu who personally led troops to pursue him along the way. After arriving in Wangting Town the day before yesterday, he suddenly fell ill again overnight.
However, it seems that it was because of the fact that he had been fighting for the illness before, and there was too much wind and snow blowing on the road. As a result, the wind chill was severe and caused the recurrence of the disease. After this illness, he became increasingly feverish and unconscious; however, this led to the emergence of the originally not very united army, and it turned into a tense confrontation and a tense atmosphere.
However, at this time, Wang Jingwu, who seemed to be returning to the light, suddenly woke up again, used the remaining prestige of the years to convene the generals to stabilize the situation, and insisted on recruiting cronies to explain the follow-up matters; therefore, the chasing Guo Wanping Lu Jun was also caught He himself was divided into two parts, one was an elite guard, including the former dental soldier and the Yaqian personal guard, who escorted him back to Yidu immediately under the pretext of supervising the transportation of grain and grass.
The remaining troops are divided into groups according to their respective factions, and continue to chase and defeat the fleeing enemies under the banner; at the same time, they promised that as long as they are in the soil of Fuzhou County, Suoke, they will be appointed as the corresponding governors on their own. Soldiers and horses, regiment training, guards, county magistrates, town generals, and township officials.
As a result, it didn’t take long for the forefoot to go during the day. The generals in the camp under the leaderless group of dragons began to argue over potential interests. So, when they had not formulated a charter, they were attacked by Linyi. Since then, the battalion has been blown up.
However, at the next moment, Zhu Lao San had already made up his mind again. Except for the supplies and equipment he had to replenish, he gave up the so-called seizures in this camp and continued to chase down the road; after all, one of them was seriously ill in the escort of his subordinates. Wang Jingwu, the unconscious king of Qi, is far more valuable than any goal.
At this moment, the part of his character that likes to take surprises and take great risks again unknowingly has the upper hand. (End of this chapter)
