As soon as the collapsed green battalion moved, the Han army with the blue flag and the Han army with the yellow flag also moved, and the 700 soldiers of the Pingnan Wang's own family, who were the main force of the siege, were all wearing double armor, and the rest of the Han army with the blue flag were different, the weapons of these soldiers were not firearms, but all of them were big swords. They followed behind the Green Battalion, not rushing forward like a swarm like the Green Battalion, but dozens of people formed more than ten detachments, keeping a corresponding distance between the front and rear, and moving forward at a speed that was neither fast nor slow. Such a queue is naturally due to the fact that there is artillery in the city.

Behind him, rumbling drums sounded, and hundreds of cavalry of the Han army with blue flags lined up, and the cavalry in front of him held a pennant, looking very imposing. The rest of the Qing troops who had not yet attacked the city were also ordered by the officers to gather forward, and together with the people who had been requisitioned, they cheered for the siege team, and the momentum was not scary, and it instantly spread into the city, which only frightened the people of Xinhui, and also made the old and young women and children in the old camp of the Taiping Army feel panicked.

The large battalion behind him was in such a position, which naturally caused the morale of the besieging battalion to be greatly boosted, and they swept away the depression caused by the previous siege failure, and rushed to the city with red eyes like wolves. The temptation to break the city without sealing the knife. Confusion has pressed their fear of death deeply, and the beast that has never gone away in their hearts has not gone away. Sex flutters again

At the head of the city, as soon as the Qing army retreated, Zhou Shixiang ordered the officers to organize men to carry the dead Taiping corpses and wounded down the city.

Most of the casualties in the city were caused by the archers of the Green Battalion, and more than 100 soldiers were shot by the arrows of the Qing army, but there were not many really fatal, most of them were flesh and non-fatal injuries.

Half of the corpses carried down were killed by the Green Battalion during the siege of the city, and they were all directly slashed by swords, some died on the spot, and some died from excessive blood loss. In this day and age. Although Zhou Shixiang tried his best to improve the medical system in the army, and even formulated some medical methods for later generations, but because of the serious lack of medicinal materials and the "military doctor" Lang Zhong in his mind, his later means can only be to talk about his intentions, and the light injuries can not die, and the serious injuries can not be saved, and the only effect is to make the recovery of minor injuries faster. and stop some of the infectious diseases.

The corpses carried down dripped blood all the way down the bricks, staining all the roads, and in a few places because there were more dead people, the ground was full of blood, and as a result, people walked on it and slipped straight, and fell down many young men who were busy replenishing the equipment to defend the city.

Compared to the corpses of the Qing army scattered everywhere under the city, the casualties of the Taiping army were much smaller, and the casualty exchange ratio between the enemy and us was even estimated to be seven to one or even more, including those of the young and strong casualties that were requisitioned. In addition, there were more than a dozen unlucky Han army banner captives. Therefore, it can be said that the Taiping army has just won a battle, and at a very small price, it has won a great victory that has not been seen since the formation of the army!

Since ancient times, sieges have been fought either when the city was besieged or when the besieging side had several times the strength of the defending side. The side with heavy casualties is definitely the besieging side, especially the side that lacks siege equipment.

When Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu, and Feng Houdun defended Jiangyin City, they held on for 81 days with a garrison composed entirely of Jiangyin people, and resisted tens of thousands of Qing troops. This includes Bolo, Nikan and Kong Youde, who were later crowned princes. A small Jiangyin city can make the Qing army pay a great price, how can Xinhui City not do it!

What's more, last year, this Xinhui city had just experienced a fierce battle no less than the Jiangyin Defense War, and thousands of Qing troops repelled Li Dingguo's tens of thousands of troops with Xinhui. Today, why can't the Taiping Army replicate another miracle!

The blood on the ground and the cries of the wounded made those Xinhui Qingzhuang who were in contact with the war for the first time feel frightened, Fan Si was one of them, his life was really big, just when the Qing army attacked the city, several arrows fell to his body and fell behind, and an arrow almost hit him in the face, if it wasn't for a Taiping army next to him to pull him, I'm afraid Fan Si would have seen the Lord of Yama.

People are a very strange animal, when the Qing army did not attack the city, Fan Si was so frightened that his legs cramped, but when he really attacked, he stiffly supported it, when the Qing army retreated, he cheered like his companions, but after cheering, looking at the corpse that kept moving down, he was afraid again, as if the wounds on the corpse were cut on his body, making him numb and very uncomfortable, squatting there and wanting to vomit but couldn't vomit, trying to stand up and couldn't stand up.

Finally, the corpses and wounded on the city were all carried down, Fan Si reacted from extreme fear and physical and mental numbness, and then he was very surprised, only to see the Qing army outside the city rushing up with his own eyes, and shouting to kill the city and the city, he thought that the Taiping army casualties must be very large, how to think about a battle, there don't seem to be many corpses carried down, which really surprised him, and he was impressed by the Taiping army that he called "thief soldiers" two days ago, and even the awe of the Taiping army was a little heavier.

There are many people who have the same thoughts as Fan Si, especially those captives of the Green Camp and the Han Army Banner, these people have unconsciously adjusted their mentality, and they don't have as strong strange thoughts as before.

………

Although they saw that the banner of the Pingnan Wangzhen Domain was still gratifying in the Qing military camp, neither Zhou Shixiang nor his officers, nor Song Xianggong nor they thought that the Qing army would continue to attack the city, at least today it is impossible to attack the city again, because their military morale has become dissipated with the defeat of the siege.

After the corpses and wounded were carried down, the young men successively moved the equipment placed under the city to the city, and the Taiping army in the city also made up for some gaps as much as possible under the command of the officers, everything was carried out in an orderly manner, although the people in the city were busy, but no one was nervous and afraid, they all thought that the Qing army would not attack the city again today, so it was rare to relax. The Taiping army who beat and scolded the young and captives at every turn earlier will also have a good temper, and it is rare that no one will whip or draw a knife to threaten these people to be honest, and the atmosphere on the city wall is very good for a while, after all, they have won a battle and killed so many Qing soldiers.

But what they didn't expect was that less than half an hour later, the Qing army launched a second attack, this time more fierce than before. (To be continued......)
