Han’s Son is Not a Slave

In the middle of the night, Zhou Shixiang didn't feel sleepy at all, so he simply put on his clothes and walked to the river bank, looking up at the stars. The stars in the sky are just like the scene in his previous life. Everything in front of him was extremely quiet, and the low hills in the distance were blurred in the night. The breeze blew across the river, over the jungle, over his face.

Zhou Shixiang didn't want to follow him in person, but Li, the blind man, followed behind him with a sledgehammer, keeping a distance of ten paces. Blind Li has a broken eye, and his vision should have been limited at night, but he can always detect any disturbance around him at the first time.

The patrolling team walked by the river from time to time, and when they found that their commander was by the river, every soldier in the team would give him Zhou Shixiang a respectful look. It was this young man who made the Taiping Army grow from nothing. , step by step to today.

Behind the reverent gaze, Zhou Shixiang caught the tension and fear, but why is he not nervous and afraid! It was because of nervousness, because of fear, that he couldn't sleep.

This is a battle that will decide the life and death of 100,000 people from Fragrant Hills and more than 10,000 Taiping soldiers!

Anyone who faces this war will be nervous and scared.

There is no superman or **** of war in this world, there are only ordinary people.

Zhou Shixiang squatted down, held a handful of river water in his hands, and stared blankly at the river water flowing between his fingers little by little.

On the other side of the river, there was a neigh, and there was the camp of the cavalry battalion, 20"⑤ long"⑤wind"⑤wen"⑤learning, ww※w.cf↙wx.n≯et0 many horses gathered there.

On both sides of the river, hundreds of boats parked one after another, some large boats that could accommodate a hundred people, and some small boats that could only take three or five people.

Same as the barracks on the shore. The boat was also quiet, except for the roar of the water waves blowing across the bottom of the boat.

Haha, you should come!

Zhou Shixiang's hands suddenly loosened. All the water in the river suddenly poured down. He straightened up and looked at the north, very solemn, with determination in his eyes, but also a desire for victory.

"Who!"

The blind man Li Meng drank back.

"it's me."

The visitor went straight to Zhou Shixiang.

"General Qin!"

Blind Li put down his hammer, walked to a tree with a crooked neck and leaned on it.

"The commander is still waiting for news?" Qin Zhisheng asked softly.

"Can't sleep, come out for a walk. What. You're not sleepy either?"

Zhou Shixiang pulled Qin Zhisheng over, and the two sat on the ground together.

Qin Zhisheng gave a wry smile: "In front of the enemy, who can dare to sleep at this time?"

"We can't sleep. Some people can. Oh, Ge Laoliu is one, um, Jiang Bald is one. Even if these two guys carry the coffin in front of him, I'm afraid they can close their eyes and sleep for a while."

Zhou Shixiang laughed, and pointed at Li, the blind man leaning against the tree with his crooked neck, "That guy is also one, if I hadn't come out, he would still be sleeping with his head covered, with that posture, the sky would fall. Let him fall asleep."

Qin Zhisheng smiled and shook his head.

Blind Li listened and rolled his one eye: The words of the handsome man are too exaggerated, and his innocence is about to collapse. Can he fall asleep?

After laughing, Qin Zhisheng's face was full of worry. He said: "The commander decided to fight Hahamu first, and he wanted to eat the full eight flags in one bite. This battle is a vicious battle, and the battle to the death, the army, the top and the bottom, and the last generals are all worried."

"I know what you are worried about. It stands to reason that we should fight Geng Jimao first, the persimmons should be soft enough to pinch, but have you ever thought about it, even if we eat Geng Jimao, it will not help the situation. The Shang Zhixin will still continue to advance to Xiangshan, and they will not retreat because of Geng Jimao's defeat. The same reason, it is the same for us to fight Shang Zhixin first, Haha Mu and Geng Jimao will also continue.

Fragrant Hills is too small, leaving us too little room for activities. Persimmons have to be picked up softly, but this time we can only pick up hard ones, otherwise we have no room for maneuver. We only have one chance, and if we make a mistake, we will never have another chance. After fighting Geng Jimao, it is impossible for us to intercept them in front of the other two Qing forces, and it is impossible for us to have any spare energy to fight them. Once they are forced into Xiangshan City, I am afraid it will be another dead end for the new club. This time, there can be no more miracles. "

Zhou Shixiang did not believe that the Taiping army could perform the miracle of the Xinhui in Xiangshan, because Xiangshan City had no solid foundation, and even if it could withstand the siege of the Qing army, the tens of thousands of people in the city would make the Taiping army starve to death. Either kill for food, no matter what, in the end it is a death. Xinhui's Chen Qice couldn't drive the navy to the edge of Xiangshan City, and Zhu Tong and his men couldn't defeat the Qing army on land.

Once surrounded, the Taiping army is dead.

However, the rivers in Xiangshan are dense, with thousands of large and small rivers. This terrain is destined to be full of eight banners. The cavalry is not as mobile as the Taiping army with water camps.

Zhou Shixiang could transport the Taiping army to wherever he wanted through the water camp, but Haha Mu couldn't. He could only move forward step by step, and could not use the cavalry to detour and intersperse the Taiping army. In other words, the Manchu banners of Hahamu could only passively fight in Xiangshan. He did not have the initiative to fight the Taiping army because his opponents Has more mobility than him.

If Zhou Shixiang was willing to relentlessly use the water camp to intersperse behind the Qing army and develop to Huizhou and even Chaoshan, the Qing army's three-way march would only be a failure. However, Zhou Shixiang would not do it even if he died in exchange for the sacrifice of 100,000 people in Xiangshan Mountain. He will not give up the first base he chose for the Taiping Army, nor will he give up everything he has invested in.

Zhou Shixiang chose a decisive battle, the strongest of the three Qing forces.

Catch a thief first to capture the king, shoot a man first shoot a horse. If you don't eat the full eight flags of Hahamu, the crisis in Xiangshan will not be solved. As long as Hamu loses, Geng Jimao and Monk Zhixin have no courage to continue the attack~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The commander's decision is right. Only by defeating Haha Mu can we all survive. "Qin Zhisheng looked at the sky above his head and said slowly.

Zhou Shixiang said softly: "If you can eat the full eight banners, Geng Jimao's Han army is not strong, and he will definitely be scared to retreat. Shang Zhixin has suffered a lot from us, I guess he does not have the courage to continue southward. Even if he After only hesitating for a day or two, we can deal with it calmly. After all, we return to the army faster than them. If Shang Zhixin insists on seeking revenge on us, then we will fight him again. Change the way, no matter how you fight this battle, it will be better than now."

"I just don't know how many people we have left after the battle with Hahamu."

Qin Zhisheng looked at the military camps on both sides of the strait, and he was indescribably melancholy. He wondered how many people could go back alive to see their relatives after the fierce battle.

"No matter how many people die, we have to fight, we can't be defeated. Once we succeed, all our bones will die. I have never been a mother-in-law or a mother, and I have never felt any guilt for my dead brother, because I will die one day. . But as long as our deaths can save Ming, it will be worth it."
