Du Xing'a was determined to take down this bastard who took the lead in escaping, but he thought that he gave the war horse to himself in a critical moment. He couldn't bear to take action, so he scolded Dorona hard.

"Why haven't the short hair retreated yet? Do you want to annihilate us?" | Du Xing'a saw the Han army lined up five miles away, and the monk was confused and could only ask the left and right.

Wang Guocai was shocked: "It's broken, Tianjia Town is in danger!"

Du Xinga quickly turned around and asked, "How can you see it?"

"Report, Deputy General Shi Qingji asks for a meeting!"

Duolona stepped forward and asked Shi Qingji, "Aren't you defending Tianjia Town? How could you be here?"

Shi Qingji cried and said with a sad face: "Report to all of you, less than two hours after you led your army to leave, most of the short-haired people attacked Tianjia Town. They were outnumbered, and they could only lead their troops to break through. One thousand soldiers and horses died in battle.

. ""

Wang Guocai's eyebrows were almost frowning, and he clasped his fists at Du Xing'a and said, "General, it is confirmed that there are tens of thousands of short hairs, and there are only three thousand green camp soldiers in Wuchang City. I'm afraid the Governor doesn't know about short hairs yet.

According to the news of the attack on Hubei, what if the short-haired starry-headed army is advancing towards Wuchang at night, what should we do?”

Du Xing'a cursed loudly: "Rebels are abominable! I have never seen such a cunning and fierce thief. The whole army drove back to Wuchang. By the way, I sent someone to report to Governor Hu, and said that tens of thousands of short-haired men suddenly attacked Hubei.

After fierce battles, our army killed three thousand enemies, but the short-haired thieves were numerous, and our army was outnumbered and retreated to Wuchang."

Looking at the rolling Yangtze River ahead, Chen Yucheng was in a good mood. The battle in Tianjia Town was his first battle, annihilated 5,000 Qing troops and seized 500 horses. The Qing army left tens of thousands of ducts of supplies in Tianjia Town, which was enough for the new army.

After eating and drinking for a year, the most important thing is that the Qing army built a fort here, with more than 100 large and large artillery cannons on it.

Liu Lichuan completely convinced the sixteen-year-old young man ahead and sighed secretly: War still requires talent!

Chen Yucheng took back his stirring thoughts and turned his life and said, "Zhong Lin, you will lead three thousand men to Tianjia Town and allocate a thousand foreign guns. The terrain here is dangerous. For our army to return to Jiangxi, you must not have a retreat.

lose!"

"The last one will obey the order!" Zhong Lin thought to himself, this was considered as having his own side.

Liu Lichuan asked in a low voice: "General intends to continue attacking Wuchang?"

Chen Yucheng smiled confidently, pointed to the northwest direction, and announced loudly: "I have to turn Hubei upside down this time!"

Hu Linyi did not expect that the Han army was prepared for him to attack Anhui. The Taihu area gathered more than 8,000 people to wait for his work. He sent troops to attack for seven consecutive days, but he could not make any progress and could only camp outside the city.

When Zhou Fengqi and Liu Changyou heard that the Han army had invaded Hubei, they hurriedly found Hu Linyi to report: "Sir, it's not good. The Short-mao army attacked Hubei, Tianjia Town fell, and our army's retreat was intercepted!"

Hu Linyi was shocked when he learned about the movement of the Han army. This time, the Hunan Army's eastern expedition had brought all its main forces to Jiangxi. At this time, the total number of troops in Wuchang was less than 10,000. If Wuchang fell, he, as the governor, would not have thought about it.

Now, I paused my feet. The depressed mood of the unfavorable war has come to my heart all these days. I said in a literary way: Anhui, Hubei and Jiaogang, every road is a road, it is hard to defend, and it is better to defend in the province than to plan Anhui and fight in the battle.

If you don’t plan for Anhui outside, it is difficult to protect Chu. If you don’t protect Chu, why not plan for Anhui? Now that the rebels are entering the country, our army is outside, what can you do?”

Zhou Fengqi and Hu Linyi are old acquaintances. They relied on their intimate relationship and complained repeatedly: "My sir, I don't understand what you said. Is it true that you will not return to help? You are giving me a sure letter!"

Hu Linyi looked ugly and ordered loudly: "Now we are restraining a large number of enemy troops in Anhui. If we trade and then withdraw, we may all the enemy troops in Anhui chase us into Hubei. Since Jiujiang cannot quickly defeat him, let Li Kehui lead 5,000 elite troops back to the rescue and wait for him.

The short-haired thief can do anything. As long as they drive them out of Hubei, the situation will benefit us."

Zhou Fengqi also looked expectant: "I hope Kehui can complete the task and protect Wuchang City."

Since the Governor of Huguang heard that Li Yuncong said that the short-mao army invaded Hubei in large numbers, it was a three-shock. On December 17, Qizhou fell, and on December 18, Tianjia Town, Hubei was in trouble. On December 23, Qishui fell, and on the county.

The whole family was ordered to commit suicide. On December 30, Luotian County was trapped, all officials in the city fled, and Macheng was trapped on January 5...

"Ba! Did Hu Linyi send reinforcements back?" Guan Wen's eyes were red and swollen. He had not had a day off for more than two hours in the past half month, and was dazed at the death toll all day, or sent someone to Jiangxi to ask for reinforcements.

Because he lost Tianjia Town, Du Xing'a was not confident enough and replied in a low voice: "Li Kehui personally led his troops back to the rescue. Now he should be in Ezhou Prefecture and will arrive in Wuchang tomorrow afternoon."

Guan Wen's heart that jumped to his throat finally fell back, held his chest with his hands, and asked again: "Where is the short-haired thief attacking now, how far is it from Wuchang?"

Since taking office as governor of Huguang, Guan Wen didn't know how many times he had been worried and scared because of the war. After all, the first two governors died because of this, and he didn't want to follow in the footsteps.

Wang Guo frowned as soon as he raised the short hair and smiled bitterly: "Every time this short hair captures a land, except for Tianjia Town, he does not send troops to stay. Now he has already wandered into Hanyang Prefecture."

In front of his own people, Guan Wen sat on the chair regardless of his image, sighing: "As long as the short hair does not attack Wuchang, I will keep my black hat and pass on the order. Before the reinforcements arrive, no one is allowed to attack without authorization. Violators of military law are violators

Treatment! "

Liu Lichuan looked at Hanchuan, who was defending closely, and said to Chen Yucheng: "General, this place is the barrier of Wuchang. The Qing army has always had heavy troops here. The last general speculated that the Qing army reinforcements had arrived. We should return to Macheng if they were in me.

When the army attacked Hanchuan, it suddenly came from behind. Our army was attacked by the enemy on the back and forth, and it was easy to be defeated!"

Chen Yucheng lowered his head and thought for a moment, nodded slowly, suddenly his whole body stretched out and he ordered loudly: "The army immediately rushed to Hannan and collect all the nearby ships!"

Liu Lichuan was shocked and thought Chen Yucheng was going to attack Wuchang. He advised: "Wuchang's city is tall, with more than ten thousand defenders, but we went alone and deep into the army. All the soldiers and officers were worried. The general thought twice."

"Teacher Liu guessed wrong!" Chen Yucheng pointed to the south and said, "Yueyang City! I followed the emperor to fight once. This Yueyang is the throat of the throat of the Xiang Dynasty. You can attack Changsha to the south and Hubei to the north. It is the Qing army.

Where we must rescue, if we capture Yueyang, how could the Qing soldiers sit still and ignore it? At that time, they will be able to restrain a large number of Hunan troops."

The Hunan Army under Wuchang City was so tired that they rushed to Wuchang from the Jiujiang Front to support Wuchang day and night, just to enter Wuchang City early. Unexpectedly, the defenders in the city refused to enter the Hunan Army. Even if Li Xubin was well-educated, he could not stop cursing.
