This is already the fourth day of the battle between the two sides, Gao Qi is not in a hurry, just at the foot of the mountain every day with artillery to greet the Taiping army, or to launch the Green cannon, towards the top of the mountain to carry out a ****, the entire Taiping Army's position has been made into a miasma, four days down, the Taiping Army has no chance to look like no one, always vigilant against the Qing army to attack the mountain, is it the sound of artillery and the Green cannon will sound, which one can sleep and scream, four days down, even if it is iron, under such spiritual destruction, it is already a little unbearable.

Huo Qingteng's eye sockets were sunken, Qiu Qingfei's eyes were bloodshot, and both of them were exhausted.

"Qingfei, I'm afraid we won't be able to last long, even if we don't get killed by the Qing Demon, we will be dragged to death by their attack, after a few days, our brothers have begun to be extremely tired, if this continues, the morale will continue to be low, and we will be in chaos first without the Qing Demon attacking......"

Qiu Qingfei was also a little dumbfounded now, he no longer had the confidence he had before, and said in a low voice: "General, it's just that we are retreating now, it's hard to say, if the Qing Demon follows and pursues, we are still more than 100 miles away from Yingzhou City, and we don't know how many brothers we will lose along the way......

Huo Qingteng nodded bitterly, this time he really understood the power of the Qing Demon, the Qing Demon under the mountain did not use all his strength at all, and he had already beaten himself so that he couldn't raise his head, if the main force of the Qing Demon was exhausted, I was afraid that I would not be able to hold on for even a day, and the whole army would collapse!

When I was in trouble, a group of fast horses came from afar and ran up the mountain along the mountain road!

"General, General!"

Well?

Huo Qingteng was stunned, this is ...... Xi Chunhua! It turned out to be Xi Chunhua!

Huo Qingteng had an uncontrollable premonition rising from his heart, "Old Xi, it's Lao Xi!" ”

Qiu Qingfei exclaimed!

While speaking, Xi Chunhua's war horse had already rushed to their vicinity, Xi Chunhua slept all day and night, galloping with all his might, and ran from Yingzhou to Huishan, not to mention people, even the war horse was already tired of the two trembling, and they kept trembling.

Xi Chunhua grunted, rolled off the war horse, and lay on the ground, only wheezing was left, and he didn't even have the strength to move!

Huo Qingteng and Qiu Qingfei hurriedly rushed over, Qiu Qingfei helped Xi Chunhua up, and exclaimed, "Old Xi, you, why did you come here?" What about Yingzhou City? ”

Xi Chunhua gasped for a long time, and then he relieved himself, and said sadly: "General Huo, Lao Qiu, Yingzhou City has lost ......"

Huo Qingteng and Qiu Qingfei gasped, their minds were dizzy, Yingzhou City was lost, Yingzhou City was lost! How is this possible!

"How is that possible? Lao Xi, we have blocked all the Qing troops at the foot of Huishan, and we can't even run a rabbit over, how can Yingzhou City be lost? ”

Qiu Qingfei shouted.

"Fart!"

Xi Chunhua scolded with difficulty: "Didn't even a rabbit run over? Then the thousands of cavalry that appeared under the city of Yingzhou fell from the sky? Thousands of cavalry, each equipped with muskets, we haven't gathered our forces to the north city, they grabbed the north city gate, and then swept the whole Yingzhou! The three infantry battalions are no match for others at all, and in just half a day, the entire Yingzhou City has fallen, and all the Taiping brothers of a thousand people have collapsed, and I am the only one who has fled here......"

Huo Qingteng and Qiu Qingfei were completely dumbfounded, it turned out that if the troops were withdrawn, at least there would be people who could withdraw to Yingzhou City, even if the Qing army was powerful, it would be impossible to encircle and annihilate all their thousands of soldiers, but now, Yingzhou City has been lost, where can the army retreat? The cavalry in front is surrounded, and the infantry in the rear is pursuing, no matter how you look at it, it's a dead end!

Huo Qingteng stretched out his hand and took a water hyacinth, first gave Xi Chunhua two sips of water, and then said: "The defeat is decided, our defeat is decided, Qingfei, Chunhua, we all underestimated this group of people......

"Withdraw your troops, General."

Qiu Qingfei said bitterly: "While the news of the fall of Yingzhou City has not spread, we will retreat immediately, if the news spreads, the morale of the army is scattered, we will only have one way to lose!" ”

Huo Qingteng nodded, Qiu Qingfei was right, the news must have spread, the army was disheartened, and the Taiping Army couldn't even give full play to one-third of its original combat effectiveness!

"Pass the order, all those who know the news are strictly forbidden to leak the news, and violators will be executed! The army was immediately reorganized, and after noon, the army immediately retreated in the direction of Fengyang! ”

"Fengyang direction?"

Qiu Qingfei and Xi Chunhua were stunned, Fengyang is still far away from here, almost six or seven hundred miles! Along the way, in the face of people's pursuit, can you escape?

"General, why don't we head towards Yingzhou? There are only a thousand Qing Demon cavalry in Yingzhou, maybe we have a chance to take ......"

"Qingfei, are you talking in your dreams? How much power do you think we still have? ”

Qiu Qingfei's face turned red and he stopped talking, and went down to rectify the armament.

However, every move of the Taiping army was under the monitoring of the Lu army, and the Lu army scouts who were ambushed at the foot of the mountain sent the Taiping army's movements back to the camp in a steady stream.

Gao Qi got the news and was shocked, this Taiping army seems to want to run, haha, they finally can't hold on!

"Order, order the artillery battalion to launch an artillery bombardment again, blow them up, and drive them out of Huishan as soon as possible, specially, order the seventh and eighth battalions to move to both sides, and maintain the posture of biting the Taiping army at any time, this time, Lao Tzu is going to serve them in a pot!"

Originally, Huo Qingteng also wanted the soldiers to have a meal on the mountain and run, so that they could run faster, but now I am afraid that it will not work, and if I stay, I will only have to eat cannonballs, hurry up, withdraw the troops!

Huo Qingteng led the Taiping army to run down Huishan in one breath, retreating towards the east in a panic, running, running, running slowly, it would only be fatal!

However, what Huo Qingteng didn't expect was that the Taiping Army had just run down Huishan, and behind, the seventh and eighth battalions of the Lu Army rushed up, and the two infantry battalions had not participated in the battle since they arrived at the foot of Huishan.

Directly behind, there were five other infantry battalions of the Lu army, constantly approaching the Taiping army.

Huo Qingteng's head was big all of a sudden, he didn't expect the Qing army to move so quickly and catch up so quickly!

"Huai'an, lead your foreign gun battalion to resist the pursuit of the two wings for me, and buy time for the main force to retreat, quickly!"
