    After a violent convulsion in her stomach, Hong Xuanjiao vomited for a while. It wasn't until she vomited out the sour water in her stomach that the annoyance in her heart slightly dissipated.  She straightened up, and under Chen Picheng's surprised gaze, she smoothed her hair, gently wiped the dirt from the corners of her mouth with her bare hands and sleeves, and said with a slight wry smile: "I'm fine, how about hurrying up to see if the guy is injured? How about you?"  Take the injured sisters and brothers and go first! The rest of us and I will take the rear!"

    Chen Picheng said anxiously: "Mother of the West, I"

    Hong Xuanjiao frowned and said angrily: "As a man, please help my mother-in-law and mother-in-law. You must help the injured brothers and sisters get down the mountain safely! After a while, the demon will come up again!" Chen Picheng blushed and beat himself hard.  He shook his chest, turned around and left.

    After a close hand-to-hand battle, more than 20 Taiping female soldiers and child soldiers were killed on the spot, and more than 30 people were injured. Chen Picheng led more than 50 people to protect the injured and left first, while Hong Xuanjiao led more than 80 female soldiers to stay.  Come down.

    "Sisters, cheer, fire up the guns again, so that the Qing Yao can't figure out our reality!" Hong Xuanjiao walked behind the base with two swords in hand, shouting loudly. A moment later, there was another attack on the front line of the Taiping Army.  There was a loud roar of gunfire, mixed with the cheers of the female soldiers.

    In the Qing army formation at the foot of the mountain, Deng Shaoliang looked extremely ugly. After the first battle, the Qing army suffered more than 150 casualties. Counting the more than 50 casualties during the day, his Qing army on Yanzi Ridge was lost.  More than two hundred people.  If he was facing the elite Changmao, he could accept these losses, but he was defeated by a group of big-footed barbarians and boy soldiers, and he couldn't swallow this feeling.

    "Master Xietai, the barbarian women on the mountain don't seem to be breaking out. After the test just now, it can be seen that the barbarian women on the mountain still haven't escaped." A Qian said in a confused tone.

    As soon as he finished speaking, there was only a snap sound, and Deng Shaoliang slapped him with a big ear scraper, knocking out two of Mr. Qian's teeth.  It turned out that Deng Shaoliang had been peeping at the foot of the mountain for a long time, and he always felt suspicious in his heart. He was afraid that the Taiping Army on the mountain would find some secret trail and left some bluffing rear troops at the front, so he sent 300 people to attack the mountain to test.  The weapons were sharp and there were many people. Only half of the people who attacked the mountain came back. When Mr. Qian said this, he greatly lost Deng Shaoliang's face. How could he not be angry?

    Mr. Qian was knocked to the ground by a slap from Deng Shaoliang. Deng Shaoliang was from the army and had a strong hand. He knocked out two of his teeth. But Mr. Qian did not dare to get angry at all. He just got up and knelt down to kowtow, his mouth full of blood.  The vague begging for mercy continued.

    Deng Shaoliang said coldly: "If you lead another two hundred people to attack the mountain, I will forgive you for the charge!"

    President Qian felt a chill in his heart. If he wanted to attack the mountain at this time, wouldn't it be clear that he would take his own life?  He cried and begged loudly, but the generals on the side were as silent as a cicada, not daring to say anything to help, for fear of getting into trouble.

    Deng Shaoliang shouted angrily: "The military order is like a mountain. If you don't go, I will pull him down and kill him immediately!" Several Gesheha beside Deng Shaoliang immediately loudly accepted the order and wanted to come up and fight others down.

    Mr. Qian knew that he had to go. He might still have a way to survive by leading people to attack the mountain. If he didn't go, he would die immediately. He hurriedly broke away from the drag of several Gesheha and responded hurriedly: "Master Xietai,  If you mark it down, I¡¯d like to go, if you mark it down, I¡¯m willing to go!¡±

    Under the coercion of Deng Shaoliang, Commander-in-Chief Qian had no choice but to go up the mountain again with two hundred Qing soldiers.

    "The Qing demon is coming again!" A female soldier who saw it pointed at the bottom of the mountain and said loudly. Hong Xuanjiao frowned, lying on the earthen base and looking down. Sure enough, hundreds of Qing soldiers from the bottom of the mountain were coming up with open fire.

    "Deng Shaoliang is really an old fox!" Seeing that her strategy failed to confuse the other party, Hong Xuanjiao bit her silver teeth and shouted loudly: "Everyone, please be more agile, prepare two muskets per person, and bring them closer to fight. Also prepare the spray gun!  After the two volleys of guns were fired, the gunfire was connected. As soon as my banner came out, everyone rushed out. After killing these clear demons, everyone went up!"

    The Qian Zong tremblingly and bravely approached the earth barrier with his troops, barely within fifty steps. Another intensive volley of guns was released from behind the earth barrier, and more than a dozen Qing soldiers fell immediately.  Mr. Qian was so frightened that he wanted to turn around and run back, but thinking that if he retreated in the face of battle, he would definitely die if he went back, he had to draw his sword and shout loudly to urge the soldiers to continue up the mountain.

    After just a few steps, another volley of guns was fired, and more than twenty Qing soldiers fell down again. A lead shot knocked off the hat of General Qian, who was so frightened that he lay on the ground and never dared to get up again, and followed the earthen base.  The eight-shot gun fired out fierce flames and flew down with stones and lead, which made the Qing army even more frightened.

    "Kill the Qing demon!" While the banner was waving, the female soldiers behind the earthen barrier came out with silver shields and long knives in their hands. After a while of fighting, the Qing army fled down the mountain without their lives.

    Seeing the Qing army fleeing down the mountain, Hong Xuanjiao no longer hesitated and shouted loudly: "Sisters,There is no need to take away the banners and torches. Gather the remaining red powder and place it under the bronze cannon and gun. Leave a longer primer, take the musket and let's go!  "The bronze cannon and gunpowder were cumbersome and could no longer be taken away. Hong Xuanjiao had no choice but to order these firearms to be blown up with gunpowder.

    The Chief Qian returned in embarrassment with more than 130 Qing troops, and lost more than 60 people in a fighting. He originally thought that he would be beheaded by Deng Shaoliang after his defeat. Unexpectedly, when he returned to the army, Deng Shaoliang was  He laughed loudly, stroking his goatee and said: "The barbarian woman on the mountain found a path and was ready to escape. This time the firearms were much weaker. All the troops gathered together and went up the mountain in one go!"

    After the Qing army reorganized, Deng Shaoliang personally led 500 troops to attack the mountain. When they arrived at the fort, they saw only the corpses of Qing soldiers and Taiping female soldiers in front and behind the fort. Banners and torches were still densely planted in the earth.  On top of the fortress, there was no trace of the big-footed barbarian woman.

    Deng Shaoliang was furious and ordered his troops to cross the earth barrier to pursue him. Dozens of Qing soldiers rushed to the earth barrier. Just as they were about to catch up, they heard a Qing soldier shouting sternly: "There is a lead that is on fire" The words were barely spoken.  There were several loud noises on the earthen ramparts, and the gunpowder in the bronze cannons and gun barrels exploded one after another. The excessive gunpowder blew up the barrels of the bronze cannons and gun guns, and injured dozens of Qing soldiers around them.

    Geshiha beside Deng Shaoliang hurriedly pushed him to the ground to avoid being injured by the flying fragments. After the explosion stopped, Deng Shaoliang struggled, his face flushed, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "What a group of cunning people.  Big-footed barbarian woman! Chase me! If you catch up and capture the barbarian woman general alive, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"

    One thousand taels is not a small amount. A group of frightened Qing soldiers bravely chased up the mountain with a heavy reward.

    It was already past midnight, and Hong Xuanjiao rushed to the secret path with the remaining fifty or so female soldiers. They saw Chen Picheng waiting there with a few boy soldiers.

    Seeing Hong Xuanjiao, Chen Picheng came forward to welcome her and said overjoyed: "Mother of the West, I've been waiting for you."

    Hong Xuanjiao swung his swords, put them behind his arms, frowned and said, "Didn't I ask you to leave first?"

    Chen Picheng said: "Aunt Hu has picked up the injured people. The path is difficult to walk. Aunt Hu asked me to bring a few people to wait for you here to guide you."

    Hong Xuanjiao didn't want to waste time, nodded and said: "Let's go quickly, the leader of Qingyao is very powerful and will chase him soon."

    As soon as he finished speaking, several loud noises were heard behind him, and a group of female soldiers cheered: "It exploded, it exploded!" "Yeah, I don't know if a few clear demons were cheated to death!"

    "Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!" Hong Xuanjiao shouted with a face as cold as frost. She knew that Deng Shaoliang would see their true nature and would definitely lead people to chase them. She didn't know whether they could break out of the encirclement safely. At that moment, a group of female soldiers followed Chen Picheng.  The path goes down the mountain.
