When Zhang Yong's pride was in full swing, Yu Shizhong's eyes also turned to his Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp in the opposite Taiping army.

"Zhang Yong, Zhao Liangdong?"

Yu Shizhong was a little confused. These two people were unknown in the Qing army, so why did the commander deliberately write the names of these two people on paper and give it to himself? He also said that if they could be captured alive, they would be captured, and if they could not be captured alive, they would be killed, and they must not be allowed to escape.

Zhou Shixiang's solemn confession made Yu Shizhong particularly attentive. Before the war, he summoned generals to inquire about Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong's details, but little was known, which made Yu Shizhong more and more puzzled. Xian Guoan made the commander pay more attention.

In fact, Zhou Shi's emphasis on Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong was a little too far. When the two of them were really useful in the Qing court, it was the "Rebellion of the San Francisco" more than ten years later. Now, the two generals are insignificant in the Qing army. As for Wang Jinbao and Sun Sike, the other two generals of the four Han generals in Hexi, they can be compared with unknown soldiers. In other words, the stage where Zhang Yong, Zhao Liangdong, Sun Sike, and Wang Jinbao will shine is yet to come.

Zhao Liangdong was a bearded man, and Zhang Yong was able to lead troops, which was what Zhou Shixiang read in a novelist's book of later generations. At that time, he only thought that these two were great heroes, but now it is completely different. From the perspective of Manchurians, Zhang Yong and Zhao Liangdong are indeed heroes of the Qing court, but from the perspective of the Han people, these people are down-to-earth people who have forgotten their ancestors, down-to-earth traitors and executioners! As for the novelist, Shi Xiang also thought that his heart could be punished.

However, even so, Zhou Shixiang still prepared to recruit Zhang Yong and others, so that these Han generals who served for the Qing court could serve for themselves. There is no need to suspect people, no doubts about employment, as long as they come and go anyway, their past actions will not be regarded as Zhou Shi’s habitual attitude towards lowering officials and generals. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, due to current events, some people's actions cannot be criticized too much. Such as Li Chengdong and Wang Deren, who worked for the Qing army before anyway, their hands were stained with the blood of the Han people, but they did not lose the Han family heroes anyway.

Zhang Yong was in the Roto army, but Zhao Liangdong was not there. Yu Shizhong carefully observed Zhang Yong's Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp with a telescopic mirror. Gradually, his expression became a little dignified.

.........

After Roto readjusted his deployment, the Qing army cavalry, who were responsible for outflanking the Taiping army's two flanks, made a sharp U-turn, gathered in one place, and began to rapidly attack the Taiping army's defense line. Ma Yaozi, who was in the rear of the Taiping Army, was a little impatient. He couldn't wait for the command of the army to send troops, and he could only watch the cavalry of the Qing army roaring towards his infantry formation.

Thousands of cavalry rushed into the formation, like tens of thousands of horses galloping, the momentum was earth-shattering, and the ground where the sound of horses' hooves only trod trembled. The Taiping Army's left and right flanks are Wang Youxi's fourth town and Monk Keyuan's thirteenth town. The former is the old four towns, but in the First Battle of Liuzhou, the two brigades were hit hard by the frontier Guoan. The latter is the newly built Guangxi. Wolf Soldier Town has never been on the battlefield. Thousands of Qing cavalrymen rushed into the formation, which was undoubtedly a huge test for the soldiers in these two towns. Sure enough, under the fierce impact of the Qing army's cavalry, the fourth town and the thirteenth town could not hold on, and they quickly retreated and fled to both sides.

The battlefield was full of fighting between the enemy and our army, and tens of thousands of people gathered in one place to fight. Roto, who was watching the battle, could not see what was happening on the battlefield for a while, but he saw that the flags on the left and right wings of the Taiping Army were retreating to the rear. , I was immediately overjoyed, knowing that the cavalry had succeeded.

Roto moved the telescopic mirror from the Taiping flanks to the flag of the Chinese general, and he was looking forward to the flag falling. But he soon discovered that the success of the cavalry did not seem to be a good thing.

After breaking through the thin defense lines of the Taiping army on the left and right flanks in one fell swoop, the Qing army cavalry who were about to take advantage of the situation to expand the gap and obtain greater results found that the Taiping army they defeated did not collapse and retreat, but retreated to both sides in an organized manner. . With the retreat of the Taiping army, the Qing cavalry saw the Taiping army in front of them launched a cannon.

Nearly seventy artillery pieces were launched from the left and right flanks at the same time, half of which were tiger squat cannons that could be used to launch shotguns, many of which were abandoned by Lin Guoan on Xiaobei Mountain. These artillery pieces had already been loaded with ammunition, and after the Qing cavalry broke through the Taiping line of defense, Yu Shizhong's command flag waved.

"fire!"

The artillery lit the arquebus at the officer's order, and then dozens of artillery roared. Hundreds of Qing cavalrymen dismounted at the same time amid the booming sound of the cannon, which made the formation of the Qing cavalry behind them stagnate. Several rounds of artillery bombardment followed, and more and more Qing cavalrymen fell to the front. The formation of the Qing army was also in chaos.

The red triangular command flag in Yu Shizhong's hand was waved again, so the blind man Li, who had been sitting on the ground with his subordinates, saw the flag of the general's messengers waving.

"Armor!"

Blind Li shouted excitedly, and the Eight Hundred Iron Man Guards jumped up from the ground in an instant, and with the help of the auxiliary soldiers quickly put on the iron armor.

"kill!"

Blind Li shouted, stepped forward first, and charged towards the Qing army with his big hammer on his back. According to Yu Shizhong's instructions before the war, Blind Li took the Iron Man and attacked the Qing army cavalry on the right flank. That was because the right flank was a newly created wolf soldier town, which lacked firearms and could not effectively restrain the Qing army cavalry. The fourth town on the left has many firearms and faces far fewer dangers than the thirteen towns.

Shang Keyuan, who was commanding the Thirteen Towns against the enemy, saw Blind Li's Iron Man Guard dispatched, and his heart suddenly moved. What reassured him was not the heavy armored soldiers, but the blind man Li.

The Qing army cavalry, blocked by the artillery, found the Taiping army on the opposite side and drove out a soldier and horse in iron armor to kill them. The big and small generals called in unison, quickly adjusted the queue, and rushed towards the iron armored soldier on the corpse of the companion in front.

The Manchu Eight Banners soldiers, who were at the forefront, waved their long knives and charged straight at the iron armored soldiers with their lances straight. The horses ran faster and faster. From time to time, some Qing soldiers fell from their horses and were hit by guns, arrows, and cannons, but more Qing soldiers rushed to the Iron Man Guard. Violently stabbed those iron armored soldiers.

The moment the lance touched the iron armor, there was a crackling sound on the battlefield, and the Qing soldiers on the horse were stunned to find that not only did the sharp gun points in their hands fail to penetrate the iron armor of the Taiping Army, but they broke the gun barrels on it. The Iron Man Guard was hit by the Qing army's horse-powered lance, and many people fell backwards, and even many people were knocked into the air, and then flew off the ground together with the heavy armor on their bodies, fell heavily on the ground, and issued One after another muffled sound. Some of the Iron Man Guards could no longer get up from the ground, and some of the ones who got up suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, but their internal organs were stabbed by the Qing army's lance.

Blind Li was not knocked flying, but smashed a hammer on the chest of a Qing soldier in front of him. As soon as the hammer fell, the warhorse was already spewing blood, and the knight immediately fell on its head. Before he could get up, he was smashed by the blind man Li Hehen and even the armor on his body was dented.

Dozens of iron guards were knocked away by the Qing army, but the formation did not loosen. The position vacated by the fallen Iron Guard was filled by his companions behind, and it was solidly blocked in front of the Qing army cavalry.

It takes a thousand days to keep an army, and a moment to use it.

The Iron Man Guard raised by Zhou Shixiang did not disappoint him, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not disappoint Blind Li. Just like the battle between Chao Hui, Iron Man Guard once again showed his worth. They used practical actions to tell the friendly army that they are not a wine bag and a rice bag!

The speed of the Qing army's charge was completely retarded. The Iron Man Guards were originally iron armored hoplites. Their existence, their sacrifices, and their bravery made the Qing army's cavalry with a large number of people in front of them unable to advance any further.

There was no emotion on Yu Shizhong's face, he just waved the flag in his hand again subconsciously. So the wolf soldiers in Thirteen Towns roared and charged towards the stagnant Qing cavalry.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Arzin shouted and ordered to retreat. Except for the 100 Qing soldiers in front who were too late to retreat, they were beheaded by the Iron Guards on the spot. The rest of the cavalry quickly turned their horses and retreated. Retreat later. There are constantly Qing soldiers being stabbed by spears and knocked over by guns. Time passed by in the blink of an eye, and the Eight Banners cavalry, who had been pounding on the shore just now, quickly broke away from the white contact with the Taiping Army like an ebb tide.

"Damn it, run so fast!"

Blind Li glanced at the fallen subordinates around him, feeling a little distressed and a little regretful. (To be continued.) Mobile users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
