The officers all agreed to attack Gaoyaocheng. The rest and food and grass issues in the front camp also forced Zhou Shixiang to attack Gaoyaocheng. Therefore, without any objection, the order to attack Gaoyaocheng was quickly conveyed.

As before, officers and soldiers had different understandings of attacking Gaoyaocheng, and Zhou Shixiang was helpless. Although he wanted to unify the thoughts of the soldiers and give Taiping Camp a "Three Bay Reorganization" to let the Taiping Camp fight around a common goal and a common ideal, reality cannot tolerate him. First, the officers are complex, second, time is not allowed, and third, there are too few scholars in the army.

Since Luo Ding set out, both the front camp and the back camp have been in extreme tension and long journeys. Zhou Shixiang has no chance to stop and do ideological work on the army, nor can he clean up the officers of the Taiping Camp.

After all, Taiping Camp is strictly a feudal army, and it is unrealistic to regard it as a later army. Moreover, Zhou Shixiang can only talk about it. There must be a group of special people to do this, otherwise it would be impossible to complete this matter even if he is tired of him like a pig. Besides, those who are killed by the bandits and old brothers from the Green Camp are just a little surprised. You think that the bandits are so arrogant. If you want to clean them, what's the matter?

Moreover, the most urgent task at the moment is how to successfully bring the Taiping Camp, an army composed of bandits and growing by entangling the people, to Xiangshan, the future base, to this matter. Compared with this, other issues are secondary.

As long as he can achieve the goal of strategic transfer, Zhou Shixiang can tolerate the confusion of his subordinates, tolerate some officers having bandit ideas, and even tolerate some bastards. Just like Chen Mo who dealt with looting in Xinxing Town, he must beat the board and never cut his head. At least before he has obtained a stable territory and transformed from "bandits" to "official army", unless he is extremely guilty, Zhou Shixiang has no idea of ​​using the formation of people. Instead, he must allow them to atone for their merits and let them play their greatest usefulness.

The officers thought of going to Gaoyaocheng to make a fortune and rest, while the soldiers thought of going to Gaoyaocheng to grab food for their wives and children. When they had the motivation to fight, they naturally had the spirit. With Zhou Shi's order, the front battalion quickly assembled and led by Song Ying to head towards Gaoyaocheng.

In order to achieve the effect of the raid, every citizen encountered along the way was forcibly tied up into the army, so that some of these people would report to Gao's Green Camp, thus making the green camp in the city prepared. Although Gao's Green Camp was not taken seriously, it was always good to have fewer casualties. If it was a strong attack with a strong sword and a strong gun, people would inevitably die in battle.

The march was very fast, but when they arrived outside Gaoyao City, more than a hundred soldiers were left behind because they could not bear the rush to march. After arriving at the place, the remaining soldiers were not much better. They either leaned against the forest to breathe heavily, or they were holding spears and pounced on their heartbeats, or sat on the ground and refused to move. Thousands of people hid in the forest and were too lazy to talk. If it weren't for the occasional coughing, they would probably make people feel illusion that these men were dead.

It was also thanks to Zhou Shixiang's deliberate practice as a training program for soldiers during Luo Ding. Otherwise, I would have known how many people would have been tired on the marching road these days. Although more than 100 soldiers were left behind on the road, Zhou Shixiang was already very satisfied.

"Brothers, prepare to attack the city!"

After a short rest of about half a stick of incense, Zhou Shixiang ordered the teams to be ready to enter the battle. After hearing the order to prepare for the battle, some old soldiers couldn't help cheering, because in their eyes, the high place not far away was waiting for them like a woman stripped off her clothes, and they didn't even consider whether the woman would resist. As long as they rushed up, they could have a happy life.

After experiencing the Battle of Deqing, the emerging Battle, and the Battle of the Four Society, most of the soldiers were confident in capturing Gaoyaocheng. After recovering a little physical strength, they all had relaxed smiles on their faces. The preparations before the battle were completed. They could attack Gaoyaocheng with just a command.

However, those young men who were forcibly brought in by the Taiping Camp after Xinxing were not happy. They looked at Gaoyao City ahead with a bitter expression. Most of these young men were forcibly brought into the army after Taiping Camp occupied Xinxing.

Not long ago, these young and strong recruits who were ordinary people had been participating in the front battalion for half a month, but they had never participated in the battle after all. They were only responsible for logistics and cleaning the battlefield in the army. It was the first time they attacked a city where the Green Camp soldiers were stationed. They could imagine their uneasiness. Many people instinctively thought that after siege the city, would Taiping Camp use them as the first batch of cannon fodder for siege? If that were the case, I was afraid that this life would probably be ruined in this Gaoyao City.

.........

Before siege, Zhou Shixiang asked Song Ying again and asked about the situation of the Green Camp in Gaoyao City in detail. After Song Ying talked about it one by one, he suggested that he wait until it was dark before attacking, so that he could gain greater control.

It is very difficult to capture the city in broad daylight. If there is no engineer battalion, Zhou Shixiang naturally would not dare to consider siege during the day, because he does not have much military force to consume. However, with the experience of these miners and blasting in the engineer battalion, he naturally does not have to wait until night to attack the city. On the contrary, he can't help but want to see the effect of the first actual blasting of the engineer battalion.

After the offensive order was issued, the teams began to gather, and the general flag and the small flags led the way towards Gaoyaocheng. Looking at Gaoyaocheng, which was not big, two or three miles away, the front camp held their breath, especially the newly joined young men, who were extremely nervous.

After Taiping Camp emerged from the forest, the people who came out of the city to chop firewood soon discovered them. After a brief shock, the people threw away the firewood in their hands and ran to the city with screams.

"Brothers, rush!"

Qin Zhisheng's troops covered the engineering camp led by Tie Yi personally and rushed under the city wall. After rushing under the city wall, Tie Yi was about to order his soldiers to dig a pit and bury medicine, but when Qin Zhisheng screamed, he heard something he could not imagine - the gate of Gaoyao City did not have time to close.

From Taiping Camp to the forest to the city wall, the time passed before and after was enough to alert the Green Camp soldiers in the city and close the city gate. However, the fact is that after Taiping Camp rushed to the city, the city gate was still open empty and there was no green camp soldiers on the top of the city. Instead, many people in the city ran out of the city in a hurry.

Is this fucking hell?

Qin Zhisheng and Tie Yi were both stunned. The latter inexplicably thought of the empty city strategy story he had heard when he came to the city with his master.

Is there a fraud or is it really an empty city?

Qin Zhisheng's eyes were rolling, and the army had left for most of his life. After a brief hesitation, he rushed into the city with a knife.

When he saw Qin Zhisheng leading people into the city, Tieyi took people into the city without thinking. When he rushed in, he saw Qin Zhisheng leading his subordinates to fight with a dozen Qing soldiers. From a distance, he heard Qin Zhisheng shouting at him anxiously, Han army flag.
