The heads of the Qing soldiers who were killed in Guazhoudu, as well as the captured military materials, were transported across the river and stacked in front of the Zhenjiang Mansion, and more than a dozen Tartar prisoners knelt in the middle with shackles for the gentry and the common people and the officers and soldiers who rushed to reinforce to visit.

He Tengjiao publicized to the outside world that in the battle to recover Guazhou, the officers and troops completely annihilated the Qing army at the ferry, killing thousands of enemies, and our army only had more than 100 soldiers killed and wounded, which was an out-and-out victory.

In an instant, Zhenjiang was boiling, the gentry and the people lit firecrackers to celebrate, and He Tengjiao personally rewarded Wang Yan for supporting the Japanese army.

After capturing and taking prisoners of Tatars, they were transported to Nanjing, and all the prefectures and counties they passed along the way were boiling, which revived the people's morale and morale to a certain extent.

On the day when the team of prisoners came to Nanjing, Zhu Cihong personally went to check, and when he saw several large car heads and more than a dozen real tartars, he knew that although He Tengjiao had falsely reported his military exploits, he had killed at least a thousand enemies, and his heart was immediately relieved.

For a time, the city of Nanjing also jubilated.

Soon, the true situation of the Battle of Guazhou came to Nanjing.

The great merit was a Wei Wu army from Huguang, the Japanese army just started fighting, and the capture was not as much as He Tengjiao reported, only more than 2,000 people, the rest of the Qing army successfully escaped, and the Ming army suffered more than 100 casualties on this side, but more than 800 people.

The real situation was transmitted by Wang Yan, but only a few high-level Ming officials such as Zhu Cihong and He Tengjiao knew about it, and it was impossible for the people and other officials and soldiers to know this.

Guazhoudu, by the river beach, the cold wind was cold, Gao Chengxun led his subordinates and soldiers, standing in front of more than ten firewood and grass piles.

On the firewood and grass are the corpses of Wei Wujun soldiers, all of whom died in the battle to recover Guazhou. More than a dozen men, all of whom were stabbed and arrowed in front of them, died on the way to charge forward, and there was not a single mischaracter.

Gao Chengxun, the deputy general of the water division, sprinkled a bowl of wine on the ground and said loudly: "Brothers, go all the way!" ”

Man Dazhuang led people to set fire to the firewood and grass piles, and more than ten majestic fires immediately ignited on the river beach.

Hundreds of old soldiers stared at the flames and couldn't help but start singing: "The wind and smoke are rolling and singing heroes, and the green mountains on all sides listen and listen." On a sunny day, thunder beats the golden drum, and the sea waves make a harmony. The Wei soldiers drove the Tartars captive, and forgot to die for peace. Why is the battle flag so picturesque, and the blood of the soldiers stains it red. Why is the earth always in spring, and the life of heroes blooms with flowers~~~"

The Japanese army who was building fortifications in the distance, as well as Gao Yiyan's men and horses, couldn't help but stand up one after another, looking at the river beach, Wang Yan and Gao Yiyan's faces were very complicated.

The fire burned out, and the officers began to collect the ashes, which were wrapped in strips of cloth.

Wei Wujun has regulations, under normal circumstances, whose soldiers are the ones who carry them, and several team leaders and sentinel generals carry a few cloth bags on their backs until they return to Huguang and hand them over to their families.

Guazhoudu was recaptured by the Ming army, but the war was not over, and a new offensive and defensive battle would come soon.

In the battle to recapture Guazhou, the strength shown by the soldiers of the Wei Wu Army convinced the rookies on Nanming's side.

It is easy to take Guazhou, but it is not easy to hold it. How to defend Guazhou, nominally Wang Yan commanded, but the people who actually made the specific arrangements were the generals and veterans of Wei Wujun.

Boasting about seniority on the battlefield, talking about background is not useful, to convince people, it is still necessary to talk about strength.

Although the Japanese army was recruited by Zhu Cihong, it was completely convinced by the Wei Wu army, who was born in the Tukou.

On the Guazhou front, the veteran of Wei Wujun instructed the brothers who supported the Japanese army to dig trenches, build low walls, arrange horses to reject horses, sprinkle iron thistles, and use all the tricks that could be used.

I don't know when it began, every veteran of Wei Wujun will always be followed by so many generals who praise the Japanese army.

Whether it is a small flag, a general flag, or even a hundred households, they are polite in front of the old soldiers, but the old soldiers are very dragged, and they love to ignore these officers and soldiers who want to steal the division, but these officers and soldiers have obviously been instructed, and what kind of faces the old soldiers put on, they are all smiling and never angry.

The Qing army's counterattack came faster and more violently than expected.

After the Ming army recaptured Guazhou, the Jiang Water Division immediately organized a fleet of ships and rushed into Yangzhou along the canal, sending a batch of military supplies to the city and thousands of reinforcements.

This made Azig furious, killed the rebel generals who fled, and immediately asked Xu Dingguo to recapture Guazhou.

The next day, Xu Dingguo personally supervised the battle, commanded thousands of rebels, and launched wave after wave of attacks on Guazhou.

The Ming army relied on the fortifications built to resist the attack of the rebels, Gao Chengxun asked people to transfer a boatload of firearms from Zhenjiang, boxes of throwing earth-shattering thunder, plus trenches, low walls, horses, and thistles to form a defensive line, so that the rebels hit their heads and bleed.

At dusk, the rebels dropped thousands of corpses and retreated.

The leader of the gang carried rice and hot dishes and came to the battle line to serve food to the soldiers.

An old soldier of Wei Wujun sat behind a low wall, and a hundred household officials who praised the Japanese army brought a bowl of rice covered with fatty meat, and said with a smile: "Brother, it's time to eat!" ”

As he spoke, he sat down next to him, picked up the chicken leg in his bowl and put it in the old man's bowl, and said with a smile: "Come on, brother eat another chicken leg!" ”

The old pawn finally smiled faintly, the two of them were eating, and talking, the old pawn began to talk about his glorious deeds, and he taught some battlefield skills to Baihu from time to time, which was eye-opening for Baihu.

After Xu Dingguo was beaten back, he ate Azig's military stick, so that the traitor had to do his best, and the next battle became more intense.

Although under the guidance of Gao Chengxun, the Ming army built quite complete fortifications, but it could not withstand the attack of the Qing army regardless of casualties.

In the end, the Guazhou front line launched a fierce hand-to-hand encounter, and both sides kept increasing their troops and fighting for their lives.

After many days of war, the Ming army withstood the attacks of the rebels and fought with the rebels repeatedly.

Ten days later, the men and horses brought by Gao Yitong were crippled, and they retreated across the river to rest, the original battalion number was canceled, and the remaining soldiers and horses were annexed by the Japanese army.

Wang Yan sent thousands of soldiers and horses to take over the defense, but he was soon crippled again.

The defenders of Guazhou have changed several waves, but whenever they charge, a non-standard Henan accent will still sound on the battlefield, "Guisun, I'll be your wife!" ”

In many days of fighting, the Qing army fought with the Wei Wu army many times, knowing that a Wei Wu army was stationed in Guazhou, whenever they heard someone shouting and scolding "Guisun", they would inevitably lose their morale.

But when an army that had traveled thousands of miles from Guangxi arrived at the battlefield, every time it charged, there was another voice.

These soldiers from Guangxi are short in stature, but they are very strong, and when they start a battle, they charge while "losing your mother." "The fierceness is actually no less than that of the soldiers of Wei Wujun.

Gao Chengxun was also surprised when he saw it, and wrote a letter that night and asked him to send it to southern Henan.
