Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Shi Dakai did not return to Wuchang before, but after arriving in Anqing, he summoned soldiers and horses nearby. Together with the soldiers and horses from the East Palace and part of the North Palace gathered along the way, he gathered together the 50,000 King Qin army in the Wing Palace.  Shi Dakai did not dare to mobilize too many soldiers and horses from Hunan and Hubei because he was worried that the Hunan Army would take advantage of the situation to raid the Taiping Army. After the loss of Changsha, the Hunan Army became even more crazy. If it were not for the civil strife in Heaven, Shi Dakai would personally be in Wuchang, and he would still have the confidence to deal with Zeng Guofan.  , but Tianjing needs him back.

    Therefore, Shi Dakai in Anqing only gave general orders to the Yidian Guozong Shi Xiangzhen, Shi Zhenlun, Guozhang Huang Yukun and others who were left behind in Wuchang and other places, asking them to closely guard the Yueyang and Xiangyin lines and strangle the Xiangjiang River to the Yangtze River.  Throat, as a result, the Hunan Army's water force cannot keep up, and the Hunan Army's perverted tactics of relying on the waterway, blocking the stronghold, fighting in vain, and surrounding you will no longer work.

    Unexpectedly, just after hearing that the East Palace Navy had defected to the West Palace, news came that Yueyang and Xiangyin had been lost. The openings from the Xiangjiang River and Dongting Lake water systems to the Yangtze River were opened. The Hunan Army, together with Changde and other places, Hunan Governor Zhang Liangji and other troops  The Qing army began to launch offensives in Wuchang and other places.

    Although Yidian's soldiers and horses are elite and brave, without Shi Dakai, Yidian is like a toothless tiger. Although Yidian is still not afraid of the Hunan Army in the field, Zeng Guofan's tribe of the Hunan Army resorted to their perverted "Strong Stronghold",  Using the tactics of fighting a dull war, the navy secured the supply line and formed camps with their backs to the water, gradually surrounding Wuchang City.

    Huang Yukun, Shi Xiangzhen, Shi Zhenlun and others who stayed in Wuchang had no better way. They attacked the Hunan Army camp several times but were unable to break it. The navy was no match for the Hunan Army and had to watch helplessly as the Hunan Army showed off its power under the city of Wuchang.  , with a strong intention to surround Wuchang.  Under pressure from the Hunan Army and other Qing troops, Huang Yukun had no choice but to seek help from Shi Dakai.

    After Shi Dakai heard the news about the emergency in Wuchang, he couldn't help but think about the death of his wife and children at the hands of Wei Changhui.  But he could not avenge himself for a long time, so he was so anxious that he vomited blood and fainted.

    The generals in the tent were shocked. Han Baoying was the first to rush over to help King Xi. With help from the left and right, he also called the rescue officers. After a moment of first aid, Shi Dakai woke up and turned around.

    After Shi Dakai woke up, his first sentence was to ask: "How did Yueyang and Xiangyin get lost?"

    Zhang Suimou had already read the battle report, stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Qingyao Zeng Guofan's troops relied on the help of the navy to build strongholds in Yueyang, Xiangyin and other places, cut off the internal and external connections between Yueyang and Xiangyin, and attacked the city for more than ten days.  The guard generals Kong Zhizhao, Li Langu and more than 15,000 Yueyang and Xiangyin defenders were all killed."

    The generals and staff of the Wing Palace present had sad faces, although Han Baoying looked heroic.  But she was a woman after all, and tears fell quietly.

    "Your Highness. What should we do now?" The words "What to do" seem to be as heavy as Mount Tai.  The pressure was heavy. Shi Dakai has always been the backbone of Yidian. At this time, everyone is looking at him. King Yi will definitely have something to do because he is King Yi.

    Shi Dakai smiled bitterly and looked at Han Baoying and Zhang Suimou.  Zhang Suimou simply said: "King Yi should go and see King Xi again."

    ?? Han Baoying is also quite intelligent. After a second thought, she only thought of Zhang Suimou's intention. At that moment, she raised her beautiful eyebrows and her eyes burst out with determination with tears.  Resolutely said: "Prime Minister Zhang, do you want your adoptive father to beg the Western traitor?" Han Baoying has a strong temper. In her words, the Western King has become a Western traitor, almost on the same level as the Northern traitor.

    Zhang Suimou said helplessly: "The King of the West has left no stone unturned, but now we are surrounded on all sides, with insufficient food and grass, coupled with the betrayal of the navy, Wuchang is in a tight situation, and we cannot enter Tianjing, what else can we do?"

    Han Baoying was silent for a moment and asked: "What can I do if I go to see the Western bandit?"

    Zhang Suimou did not hesitate: "If the King of the West still wants to keep the kingdom of heaven, he will send the navy to the west to rescue Wuchang. At least Wuchang can relieve the siege! The tens of thousands of soldiers in Wuchang can be saved!"

    What Zhang Suimou said is the truth. The King of the West will not do anything with the Wing Palace for the time being, and the King of the Wing needs to see the King of the West and convince him to send navy reinforcements west to rescue Wuchang first. If the King of the West really regards the Kingdom of Heaven as his treasure,  He would not sit back and watch Wuchang fall to the Qing army again.

    After listening to Zhang Suimou's words, all the generals nodded thoughtfully. The strange thing is that no one asked the King of the West if he had the courage and mind to agree to rescue Wuchang. No one from Shi Dakai onwards had ever considered this issue. The King of the West  No matter how he plots against Yidian, his determination to support the Heavenly Kingdom and expel the Qingyao seems unquestionable, just like when he spent a huge cost to send a huge fleet south to pick up the Xiaodao Hui rebels in the Xiamen uprising.  All the generals in Yidian believed that the King of the West would definitely send troops to aid Wuchang.

    Shi Dakai stood up suddenly, with bloodshot eyes still hanging from the corners of his mouth, but his thin, slightly tired face was still resolute. He nodded heavily and said: "The King of the West will definitely agree to rescue Wuchang. If Wuchang is lost, the Yangtze River will be unstoppable."  Exists again, several miles southeast of the Kingdom of Heaven?Everyone is in danger, and the King of the West will definitely save him, otherwise he will not be the King of the West in heaven!  "

    ¡­¡­

    A few hours later, Shi Dakai, Zhang Suimou, and Han Baoying brought dozens of retinues to Chunhua Town, and finally saw the King of the West and the Queen of the West in Chen Yucheng's camp.  Han Baoying came with Shi Dakai only after begging. Han Baoying had never seen the Western thief she mentioned, so out of curiosity, she begged Shi Dakai to bring him with her.  Zhang Sui was afraid that Han Baoying's outspokenness would offend the King of the West, so he kept telling Han Baoying to be careful in his words and deeds along the way.  Han Baoying agreed verbally, but secretly thought in her heart, if the Western thief would take the overall situation into account and agree to rescue Wuchang, if he refused to agree in a hypocritical manner, she, Han Baoying, would have to scold the Western thief even if she spent a little time on the sky lantern.

    Entering the camp, a tall and powerful man with a sinewy face sat on the commander's seat. He was dressed in a yellow robe and hood, with the word "Î÷Íõ" embroidered on the hood.  Han Baoying was a little disappointed. The King of the West looked like a big man working hard in the market, and he did not have any amazing appearance. Instead, there was a beautiful woman sitting next to him, who was as beautiful as a flower and had a heroic spirit.  , which actually made Han Baoying look at her with suspicion.

    Shi Dakai stepped forward to salute, and Han Baoying had no choice but to salute with Zhang Suimou. The King of the West laughed loudly and stepped down from his position. He helped Shi Dakai up and said loudly: "It's unexpected that a fellow Da would come here to find me. Come on.  Come on, my brothers don¡¯t need the formal courtesy, sit down and talk.¡±

    Han Baoying¡¯s mouth dropped.  He secretly scolded the Western thief for being shameless. He had already performed the great gift of his adoptive father, so he came up to help him up in a pretentious manner. He also said that he didn't need the false courtesy. He didn't want to put on the airs of the 8,000-year-old Western King and stabilize his authority in front of everyone.  Foster father?

    The beautiful woman also stood up and stood beside King Xi and said with a smile: "King Yi must have something important to say when he comes here. Your Highness should arrange the military affairs earlier and concentrate on King Yi's affairs."

    Shi Dakai also saw the generals of Chen Yucheng's tribe in the west hall of the big tent. It seemed that the Western King was planning how to force Yang Fuqing to surrender. He immediately said: "Since my brother is arranging military affairs, I'd better wait outside the tent."  moment."

    The King of the West glared at the beautiful woman and said, "What do you mean by this, a woman? Da's brother is his brother. Are some military affairs more important than brothers' affairs?" Then he looked back at Chen Yucheng and other generals.  Said: "There is no need to discuss this trivial matter, just give both kindness and power. If Yang Fuqing insists on going his own way, he wants to use the knife on his own people. Then we will mercilessly destroy him! But remember, he is stubborn alone. But the soldiers under his command are helpless.  Wrong. Anyone who puts down his arms and accepts reorganization will be treated as a soldier. He must not be beaten or scolded, let alone killed. If anyone kills anyone, the superior general will be punished with the same crime!"

    The King of the West dismissed Chen Yucheng and other generals with a few words.  Han Baoying was very surprised. Chen Yucheng, a young general of the Kingdom of Heaven, was so famous that even Qingyao Jiang Zhongyuan, Zeng Guofan and others felt in awe when they mentioned him. Back then, Chen Yucheng led 20,000 West Palace soldiers to forcefully fight in Nanchang, several times his own strength.  The Qingyao confrontation did not fall behind at all.  And in the end, he rescued the East Palace from the siege, and his statement had already spread far and wide, but now he was submissive and obeyed orders in front of the King of the West. It seemed that this Western thief still had some tricks up his sleeve.

    Looking at the beautiful woman who was taught a lesson by the King of the West, but still had a smile on her face, Han Baoying secretly thought that this woman must be Hong Xuanjiao, the flower of peace. Among the women in the kingdom of heaven, Hong Xuanjiao is the most famous, but in Han Baoying's opinion, she  Standing with the vulgar King Xi who didn't know how to respect her, he was like a flower stuck in the cow dung. When he looked at his adoptive father, he was so elegant and full of energy. Although he was in adversity, he still  There was no sign of dejection at all, I just felt that if Hong Xuanjiao was matched with her adoptive father, they would be a match made in heaven. God is really blind.

    After the generals left, only Shi Dakai and his wife, Shi Dakai and his wife, were left in the tent. Shi Dakai didn't waste any time and told him about the emergency in Wuchang. He finally said: "Brother, there is an emergency in Wuchang. Please send more navy to rescue."  "

    Although Zhang Suimou repeatedly warned Han Baoying to endure this, he couldn't help but said: "The King of the West has a good trick. He took all the navy of the East Palace under his command overnight. Now that Wuchang is in danger, only the King of the West can save it."  There are 50,000 soldiers in Wuchang."

    Xiao Yungui did not feel ashamed at all, but said with a smug look on his face: "The training of the navy in the East Palace is in ruins, and the navy's ships are dilapidated. I plan to start reorganizing this navy in the near future. The purpose of recruiting them is to rebuild it."  A powerful naval force will cost a lot of effort and money."

    Han Baoying couldn't help being furious when he heard this. He had never seen such a shameless person who got an advantage and acted like a good boy. He couldn't help but sarcastically said: "What His Highness the King of the West means is that the Navy of the East Palace will be reorganized in the near future, so they will not be able to distinguish their origins."  Rescued Wuchang?"

    " Xiao Yungui exclaimed and said with a smile: "This little girl must be Baoying. I heard that you adopted a wonderful adopted daughter, so it turns out she is??, as expected, he is handsome and his spirit is not inferior to that of a man.  Then Hong Yun'er looked sideways and said with a smile: "Xuan Xiao, Humanity says you are the flower of peace, but this Baoying is known as the little flower of peace. It looks like you when you were young."  "

    Han Baoying was very dissatisfied and said angrily: "I'm not a little girl!"

    Hong Yun'er smiled slightly and smoothed things over: "Miss Baoying is already the leader of a female camp, so she is no longer a little girl. The kingdom of heaven will still belong to young people like them in the future, and the kingdom of heaven still has to count on them."

    Xiao Yungui saw that Shi Dakai was also forbearing, knowing that if he continued to talk nonsense, King Yi might get angry, so he smiled and said: "Brother Da, don't be anxious, Luo Dakai has already set off for Wuchang, and there is a West Palace navy to rescue Wuchang this time.  Come and complete it. The East Palace Navy has just experienced the Tianjing Rebellion. The morale of the troops is unstable and the soldiers have no fighting spirit. They really cannot force themselves to go to war. The West Palace Navy has been training in Shanghai for a long time. Two new Western sail warships are stationed here to discipline them.  Zeng Guofan's navy all went to feed the fish, shrimps and crabs in the Yangtze River!" (To be continued)
