"Tell that mother-in-law, if you dare to take a step out of Baicheng, I will take her military law!"

In Yizhang County, Li said angrily, and Xiaohong, the maid who was giving the order, quickly covered her mouth, for fear of laughing. Li Tianwang is really as good-looking as an ordinary man, look at him calling Yan Sanniang "that mother-in-law" in his mouth, but he doesn't know how much love in his heart, when he says that when the couple is together, the eyebrows are so low that Xiaohong has goosebumps.

Knowing that this was the result, Xiaohong didn't say much anymore and respectfully retreated. Li Shi has recently been attacked by the Hunan side of the open guns and hidden arrows, not to mention the open guns, I heard that some people in the rivers and lakes intended to assassinate, Yan Sanniang is no longer in Baicheng to stay, fortunately, when Li Xi went north, let Guan Xuan and An Jiuxiu also go back to Baicheng to accompany him, otherwise Yan Sanniang can't care about the body that has been revealed, and he must see the lively Li Shi to rest assured.

Even if she was accompanied by two sisters, Yan Sanniang was not at ease, so she sent Xiaohong to investigate, and by the way, she begged if she could move a little, she only knew that the Hunan army was pressing, and the main forces of Yinghua were still outside, so she was anxious.

Li Xian knew the ability of this daughter-in-law, she wanted to summon up her heart to greet her, how could the new barracks, the Huangpu Martial Arts School, and the old hometown relatives in Shaozhou be pulled by her. This not only broke the rules of not allowing her to interfere in military and political affairs, but also ruined Li Shi's plan, the battle of Chenzhou, he had other plans.

"How can Hunan Minyong be so powerful......

This calculation has not yet taken shape, Luo Tangyuan is not clear, at this moment he is summarizing the battle report of the Chenzhou front line in Yizhang, and he feels that the situation is extremely critical.

"Don't underestimate the organizational ability of the Tartar court, in the Battle of Changping that year, King Qin Zhao could levy men from a county in Hanoi within a few days, although the Manchu Qing of the Confucian family is not as good as the Dufa tyrannical Qin, but once it is urgent, it can still come up with some tricks, and gather tens of thousands of people in half a year, which is nothing."

Peng Xianzhong also followed, he had something to do with Li Xian's calculations, he didn't know much about the situation in Hunan, and he couldn't speak, so he was immediately refuted by Luo Tangyuan.

Hu Qiheng explained clearly that this situation was that Nian Qianyao secretly broke the rules and asked Hu Qiheng to promote the people's courage in this way, and even the muskets were distributed to the blacksmiths of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi provinces, otherwise how could they get so many firearms in half a year. I'm wondering, how can this Hunan Minyong have such a high heart and can fight against the Tiger Ben Army alone. ”

Long Gaoshan couldn't help but interject: "Naturally, I was bewitched by the Tartar officials, and those Han people have soft ears and dizzy eyes, but they can't figure out who the real enemy is." ”

Li Xian coughed and stopped Long Gaoshan from continuing to make ethnic discrimination remarks, and while reading the summary battle report, he educated Luo Tangyuan and Peng Xianzhong.

"Hunan Minyong is a freak made by Nian Qianyao, Hu Qiheng and others who took advantage of Kangxi's policy, and then the Yinzhen brothers joined forces to support them. It is not bound by the rules and regulations before the Qing court, and it is naturally much more practical to do things and fight. At the same time, with the support of the Qing court's money and food, as long as there is a salary, the people can fight. This direction is a serious threat to our new Yinghua dynasty, fortunately, it is also a serious threat to the Qing court and the Kangxi government, so don't worry, Hunan Minyong is just a special case, if I guess right, this thing ...... It should be a flash in the pan, and it won't be until a long time before we can bump into each other again. ”

"It's also worth thanking that this freak doesn't have a brain of his own, it's all put together from state to county. The reason why they were able to suppress the Tiger Ben Army was that the Tiger Ben Army had never touched such an enemy and was frightened, which was not to blame them, if I changed me, I would have been taken aback at first. ”

After reading the battle report, Li Shi's calculation became clearer, and he dropped the battle report, and he concluded: "You and the Tiger Ben army have overestimated the threat of Hunan Minyong, wait for Wang Tanghe and Zhao Hanxiang's men to arrive, and let them demonstrate how to crack this enemy." ”

Peng Xianzhong said: "The Sanjiang Boat Company has been urgently mobilized, and they can be transported to Yizhang with artillery at about five o'clock in the afternoon, and if they occupy a foothold outside Chenzhou City, they will be able to join the battlefield at noon tomorrow." ”

Everyone looked at the fist-sized clock on the table, at three o'clock in the afternoon, calculating that the Tiger Benjun only needed to hold on for more than half a day, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, they had persisted for five or six days, and it should be no problem for half a day.

It should be no problem to persist, but Li Xi still has expectations for the Tiger Ben Army, the enemy will change, and he will not change? Although the Tiger Ben Army has been established for a short time and is underequipped, it should always take the initiative and explore tactics in actual combat.

"A thief, a merchant's son and three green battalion generals are indeed hard to expect......"

In the end, Li Xian could only sigh, the leadership of the Tiger Ben Army was too mixed, and it was good to be able to keep Chenzhou until now, and he couldn't ask too much.

On the morning of the thirteenth, on Su Xianling, Xie Dingbei's head was wrapped in bandages, Jiang Dedao's arm was hanging, and both of them looked at each other a little desperately, only to feel that it was difficult to hold on.

The artillery of the Qing soldiers was destroyed, but then the assault team was besieged by more than ten times the number of people, and rushed out with reinforcements, but still suffered more than half of the casualties. Then there was the continuous impact of the people's bravery, and the three-winged men and horses in the rear camp of the Tiger Ben Army were completely isolated on the Suxian Ridge. In the past two days, no less than three or four thousand people have been killed or wounded, but more than half of them have been killed or wounded, and what is even more critical is that the ammunition has run out.

"Why are these people so resilient? What kind of medicine did you take? ”

Jiang Dedao muttered, the people around Su Xianling estimated that there were no less than 20,000 people, even if they suffered heavy casualties, they could still make a ** impact, and now they relied on the sacrifices of their predecessors to pile up a shallow base around them, and play against them, he really couldn't figure out what was supporting these people to fight bravely.

"It's useless to talk too much, prepare to stab ......"

More than 100 steps away, guns and cannons burst out from the shallow stronghold where the people were bravely piled up, but they were no longer able to fight back, and Xie Dingbei had to give the order to charge.

In the northern tent of the Qing army, Yue Chaolong, who was originally sitting on the main seat, was driven to the corner, looking at He Tenglin, the new governor of Hunan who had occupied his position, and his grievances turned into unwillingness, and then with worry, he gritted his teeth and got up.

"If the battle situation does not advance, it will retreat, if the offensive is loosened, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the army to cheer up, and I hope that the military gate will give another day, and the people will be supervised by the standard, even if they can't break Chenzhou City, they must take Suxian Ling!"

He Tenglin looked at him, with a hint of pity in his eyes, and more sarcasm, the little Dusi, really thought that he could handle tens of thousands of troops and set a provincial war situation? Look at this now, I haven't woken up from my dream yet.

"Another day? The people of half the province, tens of thousands of brave men, are full of corpses under this Chenzhou city, do you want to send them all to death? Where did the battle go in? The thief army retreated to the city, this is a great victory, and there are countless victories in the world! You lost all the fifteen generals in Changsha and Yuezhou, but you are not defeated? ”

He Tenglin reprimanded mercilessly, but Yue Chaolong could only accept it respectfully, he only felt that he was indeed too naïve, so naïve that he thought that the old men above would stand by and watch, and let him sit and reap the merits of the world, but he didn't want to be the sky on his head, and the court was still the court.

Seeing the battle in Chenzhou, the people of Hunan bravely blocked the thief army, and the governor of Huguang, Man Pi, and the governor of Hunan, Ye Jiusi, finally couldn't sit still. didn't dare to compete with the general Yinzhen, or even with Kangxi's cronies Garbi, Yue Chaolong, who sat on the front line with the title of a small capital, became an excellent target for grabbing merit. When the green battalion army of Huguang and Guangxi provinces heard the name of this guy, his eyes were all green, and he was in charge of tens of thousands of troops, once he succeeded, it would be the merit of the marquis and worship the general, why should he Yue Chaolong!?

Man Pi and Ye Jiusi have chips in their hands, that is, Minyong's money and grain are sold, and they use this matter to "communicate" with Garbi. In order to win the support of Hunan, he had to sacrifice Yue Chaolong, a predecessor who planted trees. He Tenglin, the governor of Hunan, led the Huguang Green Battalion to 5,000 starry nights and snatched the command of the battlefield into his hands.

"But my people are brave and have indeed made meritorious contributions, at least they can stand face to face with the thief army and not be defeated!"

Yue Chaolong understood in his heart, but it was difficult to swallow this breath, that's right, the people are from Hunan, and the money and food are also from Hunan, but without the experience of my nephew Yue Zhongqi and the planning of Li Wei and others, how could I make the combat power of the people stronger than the officers and soldiers?

"Yo...... Are you really such a thief army as useless? I, He Tenglin, am a veteran of the night in Guangzhou! The thieves are scheming, and if you take two steps back, you will feel that you have the upper hand. Yue Dusi, you have been in the army for many years, and you don't have any brains? ”

He Tenglin said lightly, he had previously served as the chief military officer of the Left Wing Town in Guangdong, and when Guangzhou was in turmoil, Guan Yuanzhong did not let his whole army enter the city because he didn't dare to believe him, so he was spared. Later, he was driven out of Guangdong by Li Shi, and his general soldier no longer lived up to his name. After going through the door of the former governor of Guangdong and the current governor of Huguang Man Pi, he was transferred to the post of governor of Hunan, and was ushering in the battle of Chenzhou.

Li is cunning and strong, and there is definitely a conspiracy to let a lone army go out to Chenzhou!

He Tenglin thought so, so he despised Yue Chaolong, who felt that he had the upper hand.

"Minyong is not a soldier after all, there is no Nian Daren to arrange the cage before, there is no Garbi Lord to coordinate the money and grain in Hunan, and he will pay two taels of silver per month and one or two out of the county to reward the red, as well as a generous burning and burial pension, can they work so hard? It is more effective to use these money and food on our officers and soldiers than on the people......"

He Tenglin unceremoniously exposed the hole cards of why Minyong fought bravely, and Yue Chaolong had nothing to say.

"The current battle situation is strange, the people have no power to break the city, I am afraid that it will be limited to a stalemate, the thieves will suddenly send reinforcements, once the people are in chaos, the officers and soldiers will also be affected, and the governor is determined to ......"

He Tenglin wanted to order the siege to be suspended, and the whole army was waiting for changes, Yue Chaolong was in a hurry, and his own hard work was about to be ruined, so he was not reconciled, and hurriedly kowtowed and begged.

"This governor is not too much for himself, and will give you half a day."

Thinking that his appearance was indeed too ugly, after all, he had to give Nian Qianyao behind Yue Chaolong, and even trace back to the fourth elder brother some face, and look at Minyong's posture, he didn't believe that he could get something, He Tenglin was relieved.

"All states and counties, all press! Siege the south of the city and Suxian Ridge! Who dares to fear the enemy, I, Yue Chaolong, led the personal order of Lord Garbi, and killed the people who practiced the general history of the county, such as slaughtering chickens and dogs! ”

Yue Chaolong ran out of the big tent, summoned the people to lead the people, waved his waist knife, and roared with a hideous face.

This is the reason why on Suxian Ridge, Xie Dingbei and Jiang Dedao had just broken through the Minyong defense line, and then they were blocked back by thousands of Minyong, and it was also the reason why He Mengfeng had to organize the battalion bayonet team to support the front line on the defense line in the south of the city.
