Since Shanhai City launched the military rank system, for soldiers, military rank is life and honor. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The mountain barbarian warriors didn't expect that General Bai Qi would be so generous this time, and he would even give all of them a promotion to the first rank, which is a very great reward.

Seeing this, the evil came to be in a happy mood, and laughed and said: "Rabbit cubs, go, eat meat, if you go late, there will be no good meat!" As he spoke, he walked towards the camp.

"Wow".

The mountain warriors who were still squatting in the corner of the wall to "die" suddenly became energetic, ran faster than rabbits one by one, and went straight to the camp.

"Haha!"

Seeing this, evil laughed like a demon.

**********

Compared with the festivity of the Mulan Fortress, the southern camp of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is gloomy and bleak.

The attacks were frustrated again and again, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the deputy general Li Xiucheng was captured, a series of blows made the tenacious nerves of the Taiping army also become fragile.

After withdrawing from the battlefield, the remnants of Li Xiucheng ran to the Shuai tent and shouted and made a fuss, begging the main general Yang Xiuqing to send troops again tomorrow to rescue Li Xiucheng.

The nonsense of the soldiers completely annoyed Yang Xiuqing.

Several soldiers who took the lead in making trouble were hung from the gate and whipped 20 times in succession.

Seeing that the Lord was angry, the soldiers of the Taiping Army were even more silent. The whole camp was quiet, without a trace of life. The soldiers didn't even dare to make too much noise when they were eating.

Yang Xiuqing locked himself in the tent, saw no one, and didn't even eat dinner. It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that Yang Xiuqing suddenly notified the generals to raise the account.

Leaning slightly, all the soldiers gathered in the handsome tent, all worried.

The leaders are naturally the left general Lin Fengxiang and the right general Chen Yucheng.

Lin Fengxiang, the general of the left, was a famous general of the Northern Expedition of the Taiping Army. is also a peasant, when he joined the Taiping Army, he served as a guard in the imperial forest, and was promoted all the way to the Marquis of Jinghu.

The Northern Expeditionary Army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, because of the deep depth of the lonely army, the lack of food and grass, and the cold winter, fell into difficulties. In 1854, he retreated south and retreated to Fucheng, where Ji Wenyuan was killed in battle and retreated to Dongguanglian Town.

In February 1855, the Qing army attacked Lianzhen urgently, and Lin Fengxiang supervised the division to fight hard, repeatedly inflicting losses on the enemy. In March, Lianzhen fell, Lin Fengxiang was wounded and captured, and later sent to Beijing to take justice, at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve.

Subsequently, Hong Xiuquan was posthumously named Lin Fengxiang as the king.

Although Lin Fengxiang was born in a reckless background, he was calm and calm in battle, and he could not only take the lead in charging into battle, but also be calm and commanding. Therefore, in the Taiping Army, he is also a rare general.

The right general, Chen Yucheng, is a young general on the same level as Li Xiucheng. Like other generals of the Taiping Army, Chen Yucheng was also a Hakka, an important general in the later period of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and was named King of England because of his bravery and good fighting.

Chen Yucheng has moles under his eyes, and he looks like four eyes from afar.

In 1862, he was a traitor to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and Miao Peilin lured the Chinese plan and sent him to the Qing camp. He was righteous and awe-inspiring in the face of the enemy, unyielding, generous and righteous, and was only twenty-six years old.

Chen Yucheng is also one of the few generals of the Taiping Army who has achieved martial arts. Since he was a child, he has practiced good marksmanship, and because of his strong marksmanship, he even won the reputation of "Thirty Checks Back to the Carbine".

The two were lined up on the left and right, and the other generals sat in turn according to their status.

Yang Xiuqing sat upright, his face expressionless, he looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Today's defeat is not enough to affect the situation of the battle. Our army still has the advantage of strength and holds the initiative in the war. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Xiuqing paused slightly, as if to strengthen his confidence, and said loudly: "Therefore, the soldiers must not be discouraged, but they must not breed any thoughts that they should not have. I'm going to say the ugly thing in front of me, no matter what, no matter what the heavy cost, you must conquer Mulan Fortress. ”

"Swear allegiance to the Heavenly King!"

All the soldiers responded in unison, looking fanatical.

I have to say that Hong Xiuquan's "brainwashing" of the soldiers is really too powerful.

In this regard, Ouyang Shuo is beyond his reach.

In the Taiping Army, whether it is a general or a soldier, there is an inexplicable and fanatical belief in the ideal world depicted by Hong Xiuquan.

The power of this belief is terrifying.

It was precisely because of this force that although the Taiping army suffered setbacks for three consecutive days, the morale of the army was not greatly affected, and the morale was still high.

"Good!" Yang Xiuqing suddenly got up and said loudly: "Since this is the case, there will be no room for tomorrow's battle." One hole can't open the Mulan Fortress, so two holes and three holes will be smashed. Even if the Mulan Fortress is an impregnable wall, it will not be able to stop the determination of our Taiping army to attack. ”

"Fight to the death!"

When the soldiers heard this, their expressions became more and more fanatical. Even Lin Fengxiang and Chen Yucheng couldn't help but be enthusiastic and full of energy.

Of course, at this time, all the generals did not mention the captured Li Xiucheng. Because for the soldiers of the Taiping Army, once captured, heroic righteousness is the best choice.

No one thought that Li Xiucheng would come out alive.

The king of heaven said that once the warriors of the army are righteous, they will be able to attain eternal life in the kingdom of heaven.

It is precisely because of this that Yang Xiuqing is angry at what Li Xiucheng's remnants have done. Because of these soldiers, they touched the scars of the entire Taiping Army.

"Let's all go down and prepare!"

Yang Xiuqing summoned the generals, not to arrange any tactics, but mainly to mobilize morale. As for tactics, in the current situation, there is no other way than to attack.

The soldiers dispersed, but Yang Xiuqing let out a long sigh.

In the game, Yang Xiuqing can see it more clearly than anyone else.

If this continues, even if the Mulan Fortress can be captured, half of the Southern Route Army will be scrapped. After the capture of the fortress, behind the mountains, there must still be a great army waiting for them.

Is it worth the sacrifice for the sake of a port?

Regarding the decision of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, Yang Xiuqing was skeptical. He admits that it is true that warships are built to give full play to the power of artillery.

But isn't it a little too eager?!

The progress of the Western Route Army did not go as smoothly as expected. After a victory in the early stage, it was stubbornly sniped by the enemy.

The road to the west has reached a stalemate.

At this time, it is not worth consuming the huge Southern Route Army at the foot of Mulan Fortress in vain. At this moment, whether the Southern Route Army is rushing to the aid of the Western Route Army or launching the Northern Expedition, it is a good choice.

Yang Xiuqing couldn't understand why the Heavenly King was unwilling to compromise.

In fact, on the first day of appearing in the wilderness, Yang Xiuqing faintly felt that the king of heaven was suspicious of him.

This kind of suspicion is unreasonable for Yang Xiuqing. (To be continued.) )
