It was fast, then fast, Kong Liluo's reorganized and supplemented Fan Wai Yi Cong had already launched a row of shots at the recently prominent Cai Zhou Army. Suddenly, people turned their backs on their backs and beat him to death, and even the fleeing pace was stopped. Then more white soldiers brandishing hand cards, cutting knives, and short spears rushed out from both sides to outflank them, which was a big slash.
However, this Cai Zhou soldier was also brave. He was holding the corpse of his companion like this, stepping on the rolling and moaning wounded, and still rushing out more than a dozen steps forward with unstoppable momentum before being held by more spears and swords. The new force that was silently poking, slashing, and hacking was intercepted again. Then they gathered back to back, shoulder to shoulder, and continued to wield all kinds of weapons in place to resist.
"Don't worry about these enemy soldiers in the east, and hand them to the brothers of the Houzhen Zhoushi... The rest of them follow me to catch up, and they can stop them all the way."
Kong Liluo, who saw this scene, immediately shouted again:
However, the Cai Zhou soldiers who rushed out of the West, South, and North Roads did not look back, and they ran farther and farther in the first clear snow. Some of these followers, who obviously came to the South but didn't learn ice and snow, couldn't catch up and were beyond the reach. Kong Liluo quickly yelled again:
"Mule team, where is the mule team, chase me quickly...!"
With his yelling and the sound of the horn, a team riding on mules and wearing cloth backs rushed out from the camp under the hill not far away. It was the Caizhou soldier who was fleeing southward almost without stopping. Go straight ahead. Kong Liluo then shouted to the left and right:
"Hurry up and send someone to fly a letter to Vice-General Qian to the west. It is said that Cai Zhoubing has escaped, so please stop it carefully..."
With this arrangement, a group of Cai Zhou soldiers heading north has gradually ran out of their field of vision, and will vaguely escape to the frozen Huai Shui ice surface. Suddenly, I heard a few faint tremors and smoke coming out. These Cai Zhou soldiers turned to a halt for a while, but accidentally touched the earth mines arranged by the river.
"Spare your cunning son, you can't escape my ambush..."
Upon seeing this, Kong Liluo couldn't help but laugh with his arms akimbo: After the Huai River's ice surface is frozen, it looks so vast, but there are not many suitable places to pass, especially the river bank gaps and up and down slopes that are suitable for most people and horses. There are just a few places. So as long as it is properly arranged, there will be unexpected gains.
Then, I saw these Cai Zhou soldiers who were like frightened birds. They did not hesitate to abandon their plan to escape into the ice, leaving a few corpses and wounded behind, turning to the west and continuing to flee. At this time, those mule teams that were catching up had caught up with the Caizhou soldiers who had fled south, and then they waved their spears, spears, and hand axes, and suddenly threw them one after another; these Caizhou soldiers were also forced to fail. Non-stop turned around and hugged each other. .
Kong Liluo was in a mood and turned to pay attention to the group of Cai Zhou soldiers who had been blocked at first. Surrounded by the big spears, with only a few hundred people left behind, they have completely lost any possibility of escape, but they are still stubborn and resisting.
However, he was overjoyed when he saw this, and he was able to make these Cai Zhou army negatives resist to this point, fearing that there would be a chance of catching a big fish. Therefore, Kong Liluo said to Li Shun'er of the artillery team beside him:
"Can the brothers of the artillery team give a shot to break the position of these Cai thieves..."
"It's easy to say, it just needs the cooperation of the soldiers in the formation..."
Li Shun'er did not hesitate to:
After a while, the Fanwaiyi followers, who were huddling on all sides, suddenly heard a completely different whistle sound; those who couldn't help but stopped looking at each other, and pushed a gap in the direction indicated by the whistle sound. However, even though the Cai Zhou soldiers who had made their way out of nowhere, they did not hesitate to rush from the left to the right to take advantage of the situation.
However, they soon saw that there was a thin line left in front of them that seemed to be broken by one blow; and at least six wheeled cannon carts lined up with wild goose wings. A few of them had participated in the battle under Shanyang City and had seen the great Cai Zhoubing. They couldn't help but screamed and turned around, but they were pushed to the ground and trampled on the ground by more castrated colleagues. . .
"Double scattered pills, 70% charge, within 20 steps... put..."
Li Shun'er of the artillery team was watching the rushing enemy, and she was unable to conceal the nervousness and waved the small flag and shouted: The sudden roar of the explosion overwhelmed all the clamor on the battlefield. , The burst of gray smoke and countless fan-shaped thin trajectories almost drowned out the figure of Cai Zhoubing who rushed forward.
After the hunting north wind blows away the dense clouds of smoke in the battlefield again, the Cai Zhou soldiers who rushed out seemed to have missed a large part of the head, and only one place was soaked in blood flow and beaten. The corpses were crunchy or inhuman-shaped; and at the edge and behind the gunshot, there were even some Caizhou soldiers with severed hands and feet still struggling and writhing and crying for help. . .
The remaining Cai Zhou soldiers also seemed to have been emptied of courage and heart, and stopped in place at a loss or in despair; then, amidst the resounding whistle, the two sides re-covered Fan Waiyi. Congmen, one after another poked and flipped to the ground. But it is no longer the original bravery and perseverance. . . . .
After a while, several enemy generals covered in bloodstained body armor and pockets were dragged to Kong Liluo's front. He couldn't help but asked with expectation:
"Where is Sun Ru, Qin Zongheng is here..."
It was just that he asked several times in a row but no one could answer him; then, he did not give up and asked people to find the prisoners to identify them one by one, but the result was still disappointing for Kong Liluo. The enemy commander with the highest rank captured on the scene was nothing more than a commander of the decisive Du Ma team named Ma Yin.
"Damn it..."
Kong Liluo couldn't help muttering on his mouth: He still counted on this battle to get his name and shame. In the worst case, it is necessary to seize one of the two chief leaders, Qin and Sun, in order to recover his criticism that he "has the biggest failure of the Taiping Army since the establishment of the Taiping Army".
Fortunately, under the harassment of the conflict between the left and right sides of the mule team in the distance, the Caizhou soldier who had fled south was also dragged and ran. He also raised his arms and shouted:
"Children follow me and I will continue to work hard. If you win the group of Cai thief, they will eat snacks..."
And in the Ruyang city of Caizhou, Henan, who had completely wiped out the entire territory of Caizhou, Zhu Laosan was also at a banquet that rewarded his subordinates and was in full swing. When he saw the messenger returning from Huainan, he frowned in surprise and said:
"You mean what you saw in Gushi was the banner of the Taiping Army?"
"Don't dare to conceal the slightest, that's it... It is said that the current Shenguang Realm Equipment has changed hands..."
Xu Zhenggong, the school lieutenant as the messenger, said:
Vaguely hearing such a sentence, the generals who were drinking banquet and whispering to each other couldn't help but quietly quieted down. Then I saw Zhu Lao San asked again:
"Then do you know about Liu Hanhong in Huaixi?"
"According to those claims, the Huaixi army has lost everything and is trapped in the city of Zhongling, the capital of Nahaozhou..."
Xu Zheng continued to respond:
Zhu Lao San couldn't help taking a deep breath in the buzzing left and right. After capturing Caizhou, he still planned to see if he could take the opportunity to take away some of Liu Hanhong's men and horses. After all, the sturdiness of Shen Guang's children is obvious to all. But I don't want the Taiping Army to move so fast, even Liu Hanhong's headquarters can't protect itself. Then he asked again:
"In Huainan, is there any news I want to know?"
"Returning to stay behind, the biggest thing I have seen in Huainan right now is that the Taiping Army entered the Guangling City a few days ago, and all of Yang Xingmin's subordinates have been destroyed..."
Xu Zheng hesitated, but still said:
"what.."
Zhu Zhen, who was drunk and bewildered by the side, couldn’t hold the glass in his hand, and all of them fell down on the case; but the others couldn’t make it much better. Li Zhen, the head of the literary family who was doing beard strokes, was not careful. Pulled out one of his beard. Even the other generals present could not suppress the general loud noise.
That is the Guangling City of Yangzhou, the largest city in the southeast, second only to the famous capitals of Huaizuo outside of the two capitals. It is a giant city that has not fallen since the establishment of the Kingdom. No wonder they were so gagged and surprised. Of course. However, Zhu Lao San, who was at the top, calmed down and smiled:
"But I don't want the road to be blocked in winter, but it made me miss such a happy event... Come here, prepare a gift for me and send it to Gangneung to congratulate..."
At this time, another messenger covered in wind and snow was led to the hall, shaking his body and arching his hands and reporting:
"The villain was ordered by the Hu Du of Xincai County to report that the subordinates who chased the cloud capital yesterday were on the bank of Huaishui, and they seized pedestrians who had fled and came from Huaixi Du unified pedestrians... are on their way to escort... "
"Has Huaixi Liu Hanhong also defeated? Then wouldn't Chuzhou's Sun Ru and others remain?"
Li Bintang, the deputy to stay at the side, couldn't help but lose his voice:
At this moment, the still noisy banquet hall suddenly fell silent. We must know that they are still complacent about taking down the entire territory of Caizhou by imitating the allusions of the former famous general Li Shuo (Xueye attacking Cai); but they don't want the Taiping Army to have won the entire territory of Huainan quietly in this snowy winter. Up.
This is why the vast majority of people present are not dwarfed, yet they are awe-inspiring? After all, a giant city like Guangling has been taken down. How long can Sun Ru and others who are stubborn in Shanyang City last? Not to mention that now that after taking down Caizhou, the forces he belongs to are already bordering on many sides with the Taiping Army, I am afraid it is a whole new situation.
"Let's send someone to send a letter to Chang'an and other places..."
Finally, Jing Xiang, the youngest counselor present, said in a meaningful voice:
"Such news, you can't enjoy it alone..."
—I am the dividing line —
Thousands of miles away to the west of Tongguan, several people from Lintong, Gaoyang, Huayin, Pucheng and other places gathered under Chang'an City. After adding many new soldiers and ordnance on the spot, they continued to rush to the west. Dasanguan's path is over. (End of this chapter)
