Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Han Baoying finally realized her long-cherished wish to return to the battlefield. After more than half a year of systematic study in the martial arts school, she obtained the rank of major. However, because she was a woman, she was assigned to serve as a staff officer in the Tianjing garrison.  Shortly after returning to Tianjing for the last time, Han Baoying discovered that the garrison remaining in Tianjing was basically insulated from the war. What followed was the staff room's boring training plans, exercise plans and the compilation of various materials.  , Han Baoying found that she was really not suitable to sit in an office in the garrison headquarters, so she always urged to go to the battlefield.

    "It's a pity that her transfer application was like silence, and she also contacted Hong Yun'er, hoping that Queen Xi Wang would come forward to help.  Unexpectedly, Queen Xi was preparing to be the mother of her second child. It was the time when motherhood was at its peak, so she in turn advised Han Baoying to stop thinking about going to the battlefield all day long, and to stay in Tianjing with peace of mind, and wait until the next day.  A suitable candidate was found for her, and Hong Yun'er even intended to match her with two famous generals in Tianguo who were not yet married, one was Chen Yucheng and the other was Tan Shaoguang.

    Han Baoying was desperate for a time, and finally she went directly to the most powerful person in the Kingdom of Heaven, the Western King Xiao Chaogui, with the attitude of giving it a try.  After meeting Xiao Chaogui, the King of the West listened patiently to Han Baoying's story, and finally asked her only one question: "Does your adoptive father agree with you going to the battlefield?"

    It was only then that Han Baoying understood the crux of the matter, and she immediately wrote a long letter to her adoptive father Shi Dakai, who was far away in Wuchang. Under her pleading, Shi Dakai finally agreed to Han Baoying's request.  Then King Xi agreed to her request.  A few days later, the transfer order came down, and she and Zhou Xiuying were transferred to the Fifth Army.  Prepare to go to the front line together.

    Zhou Xiuying's experience was similar to that of Han Baoying, and Zhou Xiuying was even more aggrieved. She worked in the garrison of the Administrative Department of Shanghai, and her immediate boss was her father Zhou Lichun. In addition to not being able to fight on the battlefield, she was faced with desk work every day.  , Zhou Xiuying still has to endure her father's strict discipline every day, and she has long wanted to escape from the sea of ??suffering.

    When the King of the West arrived in Shanghai.  Zhou Xiuying approached Xi Wang immediately.  When Xi Wang was in Shanghai, there were many scandals with Zhou Xiuying.  But later, to avoid suspicion and because of Li Xuanji's incident, the two began to deliberately distance themselves.  Xiao Yungui was a little surprised by Zhou Xiuying's arrival.  But she was still a little happy, but she didn't expect that Zhou Xiuying's first words were to go to the battlefield.

    Xiao Yungui had a headache, and asked as usual: "Does your father agree?" This guy knew that Zhou Xiuying's Achilles' heel was Zhou Lichun, so he moved out this great god.  Sure enough, when Zhou Xiuying heard that she needed her father's consent before going to the battlefield, she suddenly withered.  Xiao Yungui looked at Zhou Xiuying somewhat triumphantly, thinking that he had the upper hand, but he didn't expect that a moment later, Zhou Xiuying started to take off her clothes in the study room!

    Although there was no one else in the study, Xiao Yungui was still shocked by Zhou Xiuying's bold move.  I saw Zhou Xiuying taking off her clothes with tears in her eyes and saying: "I give my body to you, and I will become yours. When you get married, follow your husband. You don't have to listen to your father!"

    This time Xiao Yungui was dumbfounded, but the beauty was present, and it was the beauty who took the initiative. In addition, this guy had not been with women for several months since Hong Yun'er was pregnant. Under control, he just did it in the study.  Zhou Xiuying did it.

    **after.  Xiao Yungui hugged Zhou Xiuying apologetically and said, "Don't worry, I will give you a status."

    Zhou Xiuying shook her head and said, "Not now. I want to go to the battlefield first. You let me go to the battlefield again. When I come back, I will marry you!"

    Zhou Xiuying's words were very firm, leaving no room for change. Xiao Yungui tried to persuade her for a long time, but Zhou Xiuying just cried. So Xiao Yungui was defeated in the tears of a woman again, and finally had to agree to Zhou Xiuying's request to go to the battlefield.

    So Zhou Xiuying and Han Baoying followed the Fifth Army south together. Xiao Yungui was very thoughtful about their positions. One of them was a Colonel's Staff Officer, and the other was a Major's Confidential Secretary of the Military Department. They were both in the Military Department.  position, and gave Chen Bingwen a death order. If anything happened to these two female generals, Chen Bingwen would come to see them.

    Therefore, although Zhou Xiuying and Han Baoying went to the battlefield, they always followed the military headquarters. It seemed that they just changed the office of the garrison headquarters to the field army headquarters. When the two women traveled, they were followed by a company of guards, which made the two women extremely distressed.

    After arriving in Guangxi from Shanghai, Chen Yucheng directly commanded the Fifth Army, and his supervision of the two women continued unabated. One guard company became two. This move made Han Baoying deeply dissatisfied with Chen Yucheng.  The two women appealed many times, but the good-tempered Chen Yucheng always said with a smile that it was the King of the West's strict order, so the two women returned without success.

    After the Fifth Army entered Yunnan, fighting began to become more frequent. Chen Yucheng and Chen Bingwen became busy, and the supervision of the two women was relaxed. The two women began to try to move towards the battlefield step by step.  At the beginning, they were both togetherHe followed the guards of the guard company to the field hospital to visit the sick and injured. The commander of the guard company thought it was okay and did not stop him too much. Then he went to the military logistics supply station to check the supplies. Although these supply points were far away from the military headquarters, they still  The rear was safer, so the company commander did not stop him.  As a result, the two women went too far. In one day, they went from inspecting the artillery position to running to the forward position to inspect the battle situation, and finally went directly to the forefront position of the Qing army encircling Yuantongshan on Qianju Street in the city.

    Qianju Street cut in the middle between the two Qing armies at Wuhua Mountain and Yuantong Mountain. This position separated the two Qing armies. Both sides would be attacked by the Qing army's desperadoes, so it was the most dangerous. The guard company commander  Unable to stop the two ladies, they finally had to send someone to fly to report Chen Yucheng and Chen Bingwen, and lead their own people to follow closely for protection.

    Under the ruins of Qianju Street is the temporary headquarters of a company guarding Qianju Street. The company commander Lin Baotong is a veteran of Guangxi, but he is not very old because he was the last member of the Dongdian Children's Camp. Although he joined the Taiping Army  Very early, but I am only twenty years old this year.  After his company captured Qianju Street, the order it received was to defend on the spot and wait for follow-up troop support and material replenishment.

    After arriving here, the casualties in the company were not very large, but the supplies were consumed very quickly, especially the dry food that was carried with them was basically distributed to the people in the city.  In order to concentrate the money and food in the city, the Qing army almost left ordinary people with no surplus food in their homes. They only lived on a small amount of rations distributed by the Qing army every day. After the Taiping Army invaded the city, the people's only rations were cut off.

    Originally, Lin Baotong did not want to distribute dry rations to the people, but several of his soldiers distributed three days' worth of rations without permission. As a result, a large group of people surrounded and demanded, blocking the way forward. In the end,  Lin Baotong had no choice but to order the pursuit immediately after the army rations were distributed, and asked the people to retreat outside the city, saying that there was food outside the city, so that a passage could be made.

    The result of this was that there was only enough dry food left to last until nightfall. After Lin Baotong scolded a few soldiers, he led his troops to capture Qianju Street, occupied the houses on both sides of the street, and set up a barricade in the middle of the road.  Prepare to defend.

    By the time the sun turned to the west in the afternoon, no follow-up troops had arrived. The Qing army attacked several times in an attempt to open up the connection between the two Qing armies. Lin Baotong's company relied on its firepower advantage to repel the Qing army, but ammunition began to run out.  If the Qing army attacked a few more times, Lin Baotong would have to lead his men to fight with bayonets.

    Fortunately, at this time, a deputy squad leader of the guard class ran over happily and said that reinforcements from a company were coming over here.  Lin Baotong was overjoyed. He stood up and looked at the company from a distance, only to see that the company was protecting the two female soldiers and moving forward in a defensive formation. He couldn't help but frown and said: "Is this a reinforcement posture? Why are there two of them?"  A female leader?"

    When the reinforcements arrived, Lin Baotong stepped forward with a rifle in hand and said: "You are finally here. Which part are you from? It doesn't seem to be from our regiment."

    The guard company commander was getting angry and said angrily: "We are a guard company directly under the military headquarters."

    Lin Baotong was a little dumbfounded: "What? The military department has even sent a guard company? It seems that the peripheral fighting should be over. Is the military strength really so tight?"

    Zhou Xiuying did not wait for the guard company commander to reply, and said with a generous smile: "Lieutenant, we are here to inspect the defense at the forefront sent by the military headquarters."

    Lin Baotong's face darkened, and he said angrily: "Are the people in the military department fainted? What I want is reinforcements and supplies, and I want to send someone to inspect it! Can the inspection guard this place?!"

    The guard company commander said angrily: "You kid, please keep your mouth clean!"

    Lin Baotong's temper was also aroused: "I have this temper! I don't want to ask about the reputation of the second division, three regiments, one battalion and one company!"

    Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Han Baoying hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing?! Do you still have military discipline?! Lieutenant! In front of you are a colonel, a major and a captain!"

    Lin Baotong reluctantly paid a military salute and said angrily: "What official airs are you showing? Those who come for reinforcements will take over the defense line, and those who come for inspection will not accompany you!"

    The guard company commander was angry and was about to teach Lin Baotong a lesson when a messenger hurried over and said, "An enemy has come down from the mountain again!" Lin Baotong ignored the few people and immediately shouted: "Get ready to fight, we are out of ammunition."  If there are more, come closer and fight!" Then he turned around and left a few people behind and said, "A fight is about to begin, so the officers should go back first to avoid getting hurt."

    Han Baoying snorted, pulled out the revolver from her waist and said: "Since we met the enemy when we came up, there is no reason to turn back? Guard company, follow me!" After that, he and Zhou Xiuying rushed forward.

    Lin Baotong gave a thumbs up and praised: "He is a heroine!" The guard company commander stamped his feet and said: "What are you making fun of!" After that, he led the people in a hurryHurrying over, Lin Baotong smiled and followed.

    After arriving at the barricade, Lin Baotong squatted behind a cart filled with sand and asked: "What's going on?" The front squad leader said: "It's very strange. This time only a dozen people from the Qing army came down, and I heard that  The shouts are all from women!¡±

    Lin Baotong sighed and said: "On what day today, our Taiping army is dizzy, and the Qing army is also dizzy? Why are they sending female soldiers up at this time?!" (To be continued)
