"Three thousand foreign guns, three thousand war horses, including three alliances and Heilongjiang horses, at least a thousand."

"Foolish dreams. Your town's head was kicked in the head, right? Now you are surrounded by us, not us by you.

In a word, there are no horses, and there are 500 foreign guns. ”

"Humph!" Sneer. "Whose head was kicked by a donkey? You are already surrounded by the three-way army of the imperial court, so don't struggle to get out as soon as possible and save your lives. I actually miss something outside my body......"

"Is your life important, or is it the importance of foreign guns and fast horses?"

"Haha...... laughed disapprenousively. Alarmist. ”

"Just Ding Baozhen and Liu Mingchuan are full of words. My Five Banners Twist Army has 100,000 cavalry ......"

"Does it work?"

"Zhang Zongdao, tens of thousands of troops in the imperial court have been pressed in, and it is better not to do a good job of arguing with tongues. If you twisters really don't care about Lu Jun and Huai Jun, will you see me here? ”

……

Zhang Zongdao was silent for a while.

"I can give you more guns, but not horses." Zhang Zongdao's tone was categorical, "Two thousand foreign guns." You stay honestly in Wangtun Town. "The drama of bribing the official army to indulge the rebel army was not only in the late Ming Dynasty, but also in the late Qing Dynasty and even during the White Lotus Rebellion 60 years ago.

On the other hand, the official and military yamen sent food, money and wealth to the righteous army [Taiping Army] in order to seek peace and countless things.

As far as Liu Xian knows, in the past year that the Twist Army has been crisscrossing the Central Plains, more than a dozen prefectures and counties in Henan, Anhui, and Hubei have done such things.

"Not a single one of the three thousand foreign guns is missing. 1,000 horses minus! "The person who came to negotiate with Zhang Zongdao was Qi Dalin. He doesn't have a good name, and he is not a very clever person, but he knows how to advance and retreat, so he can negotiate this deal. No matter how high the status is, it is also suitable to compare Zhang Zongdao.

"Three thousand foreign guns will do!" Zhang Zongdao's eyes widened, "Horses, no!" ”

"If you can't, you have to do it. Two thousand horses, one less, you don't want to go west in peace—"

Who wouldn't stare at the eyes? Qi Dalin's eyes are not small.

Zhang Zongdao's fists immediately clenched. But he couldn't throw the punch. The Lu army and the Huai army were overwhelmed by the same steps, and the twisted army was under great pressure.

The topography of Caozhou is too unfavorable for the twisting army. If the battle fails, the Twist army can only abandon all the infantry and ride away if they want to escape.

Abandoning the infantry and riding away means that the signboard of the Twisted Army is in tatters. Because, no one will serve a team that abandons its subordinates to escape 'alone' at a critical moment, and this is not the same as surviving with a broken tail in the Battle of Huoshan.

Zhang Zongyu, Ren Huabang and others now have no idea of overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty and establishing their own dynasty. But that doesn't mean they don't think about their future. Without the contribution of the people, relying only on the 20,000 horsemen they have now, even if they can dominate for a while, they will never be able to dominate for a lifetime.

It was under the persecution of this consideration that Zhang Zongyu saw Zhang Zhenjiang come back alive again, so he chose to have a dialogue with Liu Xianjun and chose the way to spend money to buy a road.

"Three thousand foreign guns, five hundred horses." Zhang Zongdao gave in.

"There are 1,000 foreign guns and 2,000 horses." Qi Dalin still didn't give an inch on the horses.

"A thousand foreign guns, eight hundred horses." Zhang Zongdao's face was already blue.

"Two thousand horses, at least a thousand Sanmeng and Heilongjiang horses. You said that the sky is broken, and you can't be short of a horse. ”

Looking at each other, Qi Dalin and Zhang Zongdao, who stretched out their heads, looked like two fighting cocks.

"A thousand horses. One more horse won't work. ”

"Then you've thought about Wangtun Town—"

……

……

May 27, Wangtun Town.

Under the pressure of the Qing army of the northern and southern armies, a large number of twisted troops had to risk crossing Wangtun Town and driving to the west. Liu Xian's army in the town attacked from time to time throughout the day, regardless of day and night, and even attacked 5,000 troops at dusk in the afternoon, with more than 10 battles.

On the one hand, the elite of the Twist Army had to reach the Lu Army in the north and suppress the Huai Army in the south, and on the other hand, they had to drive to the front road to maintain order in the army, and the last part was responsible for confronting Liu Xian's army.

The result of this is that the Twist Army, under the frequent attacks of Liu Xian's army in the town, has been stumbling on the left and on the right, and the losses are not small.

Even the most fundamental horse team of the Twist Army suffered a big loss under the rapid sneak attack of Liu Xian's cavalry brigade.

Guns and cannons rang out for ten miles. Billowing gunsmoke and fog covered the sky, obscuring the blue sky overhead.

Wangtun Town fought fiercely this day, and every twister could come to testify.

The next day, the twisted army went west, and Liu Xian led the main force to suffix. Liu Xian's army stayed behind, and a team of several hundred people drove out of Wangtun Town and marched towards the area of Gaolouzhai.

On 29 May, more than 30,000 Luhuai allied troops finally arrived at Wangtun Town. It's a pity that they didn't even catch a single hair of the twisting army.

At this time, there were only less than 2,000 Liu Xian's army in Wangtun Town, and the main force had already pursued the Twist army west under the leadership of Liu Xian. In the fields outside the town, more than a dozen new huge graves stood like small hills, and there were six huge pits, which were full of the corpses of the Twisted Army, which had not yet been sealed.

Ding Baozhen and Liu Mingchuan's faces were all stiff. The ruined Wangtun Town reflects these hills where the bodies of countless rebels are buried, and Liu Xianjun's hard battles and exploits in these days are self-evident. But what about yourself? What to do on your own?

How to deal with the imminent thunderous wrath of the imperial court?

Monk Lingqin has not seen anyone alive or dead, nor has he seen a corpse. But it is true that the county dynasty served the dynasty and remained in the hands of the Twist Army. It can be said that there is really no chance of him surviving.

Liu Xian has been in a good mood in the past two days, except that he has picked off a piece of fat from the hands of the Twisting Army, because Zhang Zongdao has given the exact news that Monk Lingqin had died on the night of the 19th.

The things that I was most worried about during this time in my heart have the best conclusion.

The death of Monk Lingqin is of great significance to Liu Xian, and it is no less than the batch of foreign guns and fast horses in his hands.

Under the thunderous anger of Beijing, Liu Xianam's performance in the past ten days will get the greatest benefits.

He, a butterfly that has entered history, has set off waves that have not changed the fate of Seng Lingqin. But in the future, it will definitely change the fate of the Manchus and change the fate of China.

On 3 June, the Twist Army crossed the Yellow River west of Kaocheng and entered Henan. Liu Xian once led the army to chase him, but was attacked and killed by the superior horse team of the Twist Army, and the troops retreated to Kaocheng, merging the baggage forces of other troops.

But in the Yali of Kaocheng County, where does Liu Xian, who is happy and smiling, have a trace of anger at defeat? Yiqiē is just a scene of his performance with Twist Jun.

3,000 Western horse pistols and 1,500 war horses, including 500 Sanmeng and Heilongjiang horses, these are the money for the Twist Army to go west into Henan.

Liu Xian also sent troops to escort them all the way to the edge of the Yellow River.

This was the end of the Battle of Shandong, which lasted for two months. The rest should look at Beijing and see how the Empress Dowager and the Devil Six will descend the thunder and rage!
