After receiving the news that Guo Xing'a gave up his hand to the heavens, Zhang Guoliang was very happy, and in his eyes, the young Guo Xing'a was a lot more sensible. However, the general surnamed Zhou, who received Tianchang, did not thank Guo Xing'a at all, and even wrote a submission to the Jiangnan camp overnight, scolding Guo Xing'a for being a dog.

It's no wonder that the surname Zhou doesn't appreciate it, the Tianchang left by Guo Xing'a to him is really miserable. Not to mention that the city was full of mutilated corpses, Guo Xing'a also scraped the Tianchang clean, and the city couldn't even make up a hundred catties of food. After the surname Zhou received Tianchang, not only did he not take advantage of it at all, but also provided relief to the refugees who survived the city disaster. Moreover, the people in the city have really harmed the Guoxinga department too badly, and it can be said that hatred is like an ocean. Almost every one of these people who escaped had relatives who were poisoned by the Guoxing Asuo, or their wives and daughters were harmed by them. They all picked up the bowl to eat, and when they put down the bowl, they scolded their mother. In their eyes, the Guoxing Asuo is the Qing army, and the Zhou surname is also the Qing army. The surname Zhou wants to help the people during the day, but at night he has to prevent the people from rebelling and doing him, and he has completely become Guoxing's pick-up man, no wonder the surname Zhou is dancing and scolding Guoxing's crazy.

Guo Xing'a, who threw the mess to the surname Zhou, is not happy now, he was scolded by a small sailor on the bank of the Yangtze River, and he has no temper at all. Guo Xing'a led the team to feel that Jiangbian wanted to send the captured across the river and continue to open the road, but he didn't expect that it was not a team of empty boats coming from the south bank, but it was actually full of ammunition. It turned out that Xishou, who stayed in Jiangnan to contact the sailors, thought that Guoxinga was in urgent need of supplies after returning from the war, so he sent several boats full of ammunition to Guoxinga. However, the battle of Tianchang was too easy to win, and the ammunition consumption was not large, and where so much ammunition was needed, it was also a burden to carry. Guo Xing'a wanted the sailor to send the ammunition back first, and then come back to pick up the loot, which was not a big deal, but the sailor led the team was a twisted seed, and a six-grade sailor almost killed Guo Xing'a.

"It can't be done! We can only go back and forth once, and if you have to let us go back, you will wait for us here, and we will come back in ten days! "It's like I've eaten gunpowder.

"Just one more trip, and you can bring back the ammunition, and then come and get the things back, and this is what I will give the brothers tea." After all, he was not his own subordinate, and he also asked others to do things, Guo Xing'a was polite, and let people take a hundred taels of silver to the Qianzong.

"The reward of the adults, the last general will not dare to ask for it! It's not difficult for you to run for you, we can really only run once, and it's okay for you to let the last general run a hundred times in peacetime. But what time is it? And this place is too close to Nanjing, and the long-haired sailor can kill it at any time! The last will not be able to joke with the heads of the brethren! "Mr. Qian said that he would not accept any money.

Guoxing, you have been tossing with him for a long time, and Mr. Qian is a sentence "I can't do it!" In the end, Guo Xing'a, who had no choice, could only collect enough ammunition for two major battles, and then loaded the captured onto the ship. After watching the fleet go away depressedly, the whole army of Guoxing'a began to move north along the Chuhe River, preparing to bypass Liuhe, Pukou, and Chaoxian, and go to the vicinity of Wuhu again to fight the autumn wind.

"Without a sailor ship, this Jiangbei is not easy to mix!" Guo Xing'a, who was robbed of everything, was quite emotional, he was going to move to Jiangbei in the future, and a bunch of belongings was not lucky.

After sighing, Guo Xing'a thought of the Aspen fleet again, if there can be strong ships and artillery, it can cross the Yangtze River. Unfortunately, it was a failed attempt, and China's strong ships and artillery would not be available until the Nanyang Naval Division.

There were no waves along the way, and after bypassing Liuhe, the Qing army turned west and began to insert itself into the occupied area of the Taiping army. Guo Xing'a didn't feel that there would be any danger, although the Taiping army occupied the area passing by, but he also walked close to the border between the two sides, once he touched a big coffee like Li Xiucheng, he immediately turned around and ran north to Chuzhou. The Chuzhou guard is Li Zhaoshou, the number one second boy under Li Xiucheng, who can be said to be absolutely safe. Even if Li Xiucheng really chased him to Chuzhou, he would definitely be the first to settle accounts with Li Zhaoshou, and his little shrimp could slip away calmly.

However, when Guo Xing'a walked to a small village called Jixiangzhuang, it was time for him to pay off his character debts. Guo Xing'a, who was entrenched in the village chief's hall and eating the village chief's lunch, received a report from the outpost, and found a large number of Taiping troops building a defensive line twenty miles to the west, with a total strength of no less than 15,000 men. Guo Xing'a didn't care, the Taiping army had just recovered here, and there were still sporadic exchanges between the Qing army and the Taiping army nearby. casually spread out the map and looked at it twice, and hastily issued an order to turn north and move closer to Chuzhou.

However, less than five miles after the departure of the journey, the outpost once again received information that a large number of enemies had appeared in the north and northwest. Guo Xing'a, who opened the map again, was a little confused, and there seemed to be a trace of unusual smell in the air. According to the intelligence, the Taiping army in the north and northwest just blocked the road for Guoxing'a to enter Chuzhou, which may be a coincidence or a danger.

"My lord, the number of long-haired people in the two places in the north is not much, only three or five thousand people, let's break them up and go to Chuzhou again!" The officers who fought even the battle had become more and more arrogant, and they didn't pay much attention to the Taiping army with less than 10,000 people.

"Forget it, let's go home for the New Year!" Guo Xing'a was also very arrogant, and he couldn't afford to look down on the Taiping army blocking the road, but he was afraid of Li Xiucheng who was close to Pukou. The defeat battle of thousands of people cannot be completed in a moment and a half, and it will not be cost-effective if Li Xiucheng is recruited. Since there is no suitable place for development, and the road is not smooth around the periphery of Nanjing, it is better to go back to the New Year as soon as possible.

The Qing army began to move closer to the Chuhe River and prepared to return the same way, but after walking for less than half an hour, they were forced to turn again, and the Taiping army of nearly 20,000 troops pressed over from the northeast. Even if Guo Xing'a is sluggish, he now understands that the deeds of his subordinates have been exposed, and the top brass of the Taiping Army has paid unprecedented attention to him, and is mobilizing a large army to round him up.

There were enemy armies on the east, west, and north, and Guo Xing'a could only lead the team to flee south, although the Taiping army was chasing but was not in a hurry, and did not seem to be worried about escaping. Guoxing'a, who fled to the Chuhe River, understood that the Taiping army did not need to be in a hurry, in a sense, Guoxing'a had been besieged, there were large armies besieged on three sides, and the only vacant south was the Chuhe River, which was hundreds of meters wide.

The generals of the Taiping Army, who were pursuing Guoxing'a, saw that the Qing army had set up a defensive formation on the bank of the Chu River, and thought that the overall situation had been decided. But they never expected that when they slowly approached, the Qing army had built a pontoon bridge over the Chu River and flew over the Chu River under their noses. By the time they reached the river, there were only scraps of wood left on the river after the Qing army dismantled the pontoon bridge. Guoxing'a, who crossed the Chu River with the help of a mortise and tenon pontoon bridge, was temporarily safe, but he also knew that if the Taiping army wanted to arrest him, it would definitely not be as simple as that.

"My lord, do you want to turn east into the direction of Liuhe?" Xiande and several people gathered around Guoxinga to ask about the direction of the march, and they also found out about their own situation.

"When ordinary people encounter an ambush, they must go Liuhe, and there must be an ambush for long hair! Damn, go west, go up the river and go up to Hexian, Lao Tzu gave Li Xiucheng a big surprise! "Guo Xinga thinks that it is safe to go off the beaten path.

It's a pity that Guoxing'a, who attacked the Taiping army by surprise several times, hit the iron plate this time. Before the Qing army could be drawn, a Taiping army of about 5,000 people had already pressed along the mountains north of Pukou.

"Infantry artillery coordinated to defeat the incoming enemy array, cavalry charged, and defeated the incoming enemy to take Hexian directly." Guo Xing'a, who was deformed by a big slap in the face, jumped like thunder.

The effect of the intensive bombardment of thirty-two Napoleonic guns was extremely impressive, coupled with the long-range accuracy of the Enfield M1853, the Qing army easily disrupted the incoming enemy's array. However, when the cavalry started to charge, an accident occurred, and the first-line cavalry was forced to run back as soon as they began to charge, giving up the good fighter. In the binoculars of Mu Shun and Guo Xing'a, the panicked positions of the Taiping army were full of horses and antlers, and if the cavalry rushed forward, the consequences would be unimaginable. It's not difficult to deal with the rejection of horses and antlers, but Guoxing Ah Mei has so much time. Guo Xing'a has the feeling of kicking people on the knee as soon as he raises his leg, all the moves have been seen through, and it doesn't feel good at all to be beaten by someone with Jeet Kune Do.

"Withdraw!" Goxinga gritted his teeth and gave the order to retreat.

Turning east to Liuhe again, the bad luck had just begun, and the pursuing Taiping army also crossed the Chu River by boat, and again pursued it from a different direction. Guo Xing'a had to order to speed up the march, the Qing army was no longer calm, and now it was bitten by any Taiping army, and it was difficult for the Qing army to get out.

"My lord, the long hair has been pressed from the west, northwest, north, and northeast directions, and it is too dangerous for our army to continue to encircle the south, so it is better to turn to the south, pass through the valley floor between the big chair mountains, bypass Pukou City, retreat to the river, and then get out by the warship of the sailor." Hyunde, who had compiled several enemy situations, drew a seemingly unique way out of the map on the map.

Guo Xing'a looked at the map and had no idea for a while, the Qing army was trapped on the plain between the Chu River and the Dayi Mountain, and the slightest hesitation was in danger of being surrounded by the Taiping army. Judging from the map, it is indeed a way out to reach the outside of Pukou City by passing through the mountain road of Dayi Mountain for more than ten miles. Pukou City was close to the Yangtze River, and there was enough open space outside the city for the Qing army to hold along the river, wait for the sailors to respond, and then escape by boat.

Although it is a seemingly perfect way to live, Guo Xing'a didn't dare to go, because he remembered the sailor Qianzong who scolded him like an allegro, and the sailor of Daqing was unreliable! They were afraid to sail across the river in their rear, and let them drive down to Nanjing, which was estimated to be more difficult than Tang Seng marrying relatives. And there are things in Pukou that Guo Xing'a is more afraid of, which is also the reason why he has been going around Pukou, and now there is a person in Pukou City, his name is Li Xiucheng.

Although he did not taste defeat after the crossing, Guo Xing'a still did not have the courage to face the pillars of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's armed forces. He was very afraid of His Royal Highness the Loyal King, who almost single-handedly survived the crisis and extended the life of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for several years. Unless there is no way to avoid it, Guo Xing'a is absolutely unwilling to face Li Xiucheng.

"Ten miles of mountain roads, or canyons, choke the head and block the tail, we will be trapped to death." There is no need for Goxinga to object, Bo Ritu has already expressed his objection.

"The whole army marched quickly, to the east, rushed out!" Goxinga gambled on one-tenth of his hopes and rushed at full speed to the last little gap in the encirclement.

"Sure enough!" A young Taiping army general about the same age as Tan Shaoguang stood at the top of the big chair mountain, holding a telescope to watch the movements of the Qing army, and Guo Xing'a's choice to attack the east with all his strength seemed to be in his hands.

"Send an order to Xiao to enroll, go south with all your might, and be sure to plug the gap in the eastward movement of the Qing demon!" Li Xiucheng, who was also holding a telescope, gave an order anxiously.

The speed of the Qing army's movement greatly exceeded his expectations, and the six troops surrounding the Qing army were already in place, but Xiao's enrollment department, which was a little farther away, was still more than ten miles away from the big chair, and there was a gap of more than ten miles in the encirclement. Both troops were desperately running towards the gap, but it seemed that the Qing army was slightly faster.
