The Taiping Army had the merit of defending the city and the Navy had the merit of helping. Although the Navy came ashore on the four sides of the Qing army's defense line collapsed on three sides, it was very disappointing to hold the troops before, but no matter what, the Navy's merit of the Navy still saved the Taiping Army's defeat. Therefore, Zhou Shixiang, as the master, proposed that the spoils were seized and divided equally between the two sides.w?

Chen Qice smiled and said nothing about Zhou Shixiang's proposal, but Wu Yuan, the registered general sitting on his right, spoke.

Wu Yuan was from Shaoguan, Guangdong. In the first year of Shaowu, he surrendered to Chen Qice with 40 troops, and was later appointed as the general of Ganzhou by the Yongli court. Ganzhou was in the controlled area of ​​the Qing army in Jiangxi. Therefore, Wu Yuan, the general of Ganzhou, was not really stationed in Ganzhou, so he was called the registered general. Just when the Ming army really recovered Ganzhou in the future, he called Wu Yuan, the registered general. If Ganzhou could not be recovered for a long time, Wu Yuan would have to be his registered general forever.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the registered general is a false title that the Yongli court conspired to attract people's hearts. It is a perfect match for people's hearts. It is easy to say that the registered generals like Wu Yuan were arrested in the Southern Ming army, and the main force of the Ming army adapted from the Daxi Army was better. In other places, there were many such abusive number flying into the sky, and there were even registered generals of Liaodong.

Chen Qice didn't have any opinions on Zhou Shixiang's proposal, because this kind of thing was not easy for General Ling Hai. He was not suitable for him in terms of identity or age. It was appropriate for the people below to talk to Zhou Shi. In the end, he made a plan. The battle was already a big victory, and the division of spoils was a trivial matter. If his subordinates wanted to fight, they would fight. It would be fine if they couldn't fight.

Thinking of this, Old General Bai still hopes to get more supplies from the Taiping Army. The navy's re-entry into Tanjiang this time can be said to have emptied Chen Qice's nest and went down to Sichuan Island to all the savings. If he could not get some supplements from Xinhui, then entering the river would be worth the loss. After all, the entire army had to eat grain every day with thousands of mouths, and even more equipment was needed for training soldiers. General Ling Hai was generous and he had to consider his subordinates. He could not let thousands of people go back hungry again.

Zhou Shixiang proposed to divide the capture of the battle equally. Chen Qice agreed, but the details of the matter could not be ignored. At his signal, Wu Yuan stood up and mentioned something he was not easy to say. Wu Yuan asked: "Our army came to the sea to support your army. According to the rules, your army should provide our army with some food and equipment, but I don't know how to calculate this? Should we calculate it together or do it separately?"

“Um…”

The question raised by Wu Yuan gave Zhou Shixiang a headache, and this person was right. W? It was a great kindness for the navy to come to rescue the Taiping Army. His master cannot neglect others. Whether in the past or now, the Ming and Qing dynasties were the same in treating the guest army. The problem is that Zhou Shixiang was also extremely poor, and he was also jealous of the Qing army's capture, so where could he be allocated to the navy.

The Taiping Army was all over the place, and the young and old all had nearly 10,000 mouths waiting for the food to be eaten. In the future, the anti-Qing base was opened, and there were a lot of various equipment and materials. How could Zhou Shixiang be generous? Besides, according to the example, what is this example? It hurts his family if he gives him too much, and he makes people look down upon him if he gives him less. It is difficult.

A headache, Zhou Shixiang didn't know how to speak for a moment. Seeing this, Duke Xiang of Song hurriedly rescued him and asked Chen Qice with a smile: "I don't know how many the old general thinks is appropriate?"

"Hey, you guys talk about this. I have been greedy for a few days, so I'd better put my stomach tightly first." Chen Qice called out, picked up the chopsticks quietly and pushed the problem back.

Duke Xiang of Song pondered for a moment and said, "All the supplies left by the Qing army, whether they are food, weapons, or war horses and livestock, as long as they are available, our army will be divided equally with your army."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Yuan. He said, "Now, both of you and my family are cleaning the battlefield outside the city. How many of us can be seized? We don't know how to sit here. We say it's equal division, but how to divide it equally? Besides, how to calculate after equal division?"

Duke Xiang of Song felt a little embarrassed when he heard this: "What does General Wu mean?"

"You take yours, we take ours, and then divide some of the spoils you seized to supply our army. In this way, we have not come here in vain. Do you think?" Wu Yuan came up with the most suitable plan that he thought could seamlessly win the best interests for the navy. He naturally would not spit out the things he had grabbed from the navy outside the city. It depends on how much oil and water the Taiping Army can have. The lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Qing army was dragged into poverty by the Taiping Army, and the supplies left behind would definitely not be short.

Although Chen Qice felt that it was a little overwhelmed after hearing this plan, he saw that all the generals were inclined to this plan, so he also agreed.

The two families took all the materials on the battlefield. After the Taiping Army set some out for the navy from their own portions, and they didn't know how much more portions were. This made Duke Xiang of Song hesitate and dared not make this decision for Zhou Shixiang casually.

The eyes of the shizi once again focused on Zhou Shixiang, but the latter was deeply frowning and thinking about something. This naturally made Chen Qice's subordinates dissatisfied. Chen Qice stared at Zhou Shixiang with interest, wanting to see what this brave scholar had. If Zhou Shixiang was really embarrassed, he would not force him too much. They were all soldiers who resisted the Qing Dynasty, and no one had any difficulties.

After a while, Zhou Shixiang opened his eyebrows, as if he had made up his mind, stood up and faced Chen Qice and others, and spoke loudly: "The old general led his troops to support our Taiping Army from afar. I am very grateful. As for the requests made by your army, it is absolutely reasonable. However, the Taiping Army of the younger generation has suffered heavy losses in the past few months and is even more in urgent need of food and grass. Therefore, I am afraid that I will not be able to agree to your army's request." Speaking of this, before Wu Yuan and others changed their color, the tone changed and said: "But the old general looks like this, I am willing to thank the old general for helping us with Xinhui City."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qice suddenly stood up, showed an incredible expression, and said in surprise: "Brother Zhou is the truth?"

Wu Yuan and other generals of Chen's army also stood up in surprise, all looking at Zhou Shixiang. On the Taiping Army, in addition to Duke Xiang of Song who was known to Zhou Shixiang, Qin Zhisheng and others were also surprised. It is important to know that Xinhui's strategic position is extremely important, not only the southwest gateway of Guangzhou, but also close to Tan Jiang. Advance can threaten Guangzhou, retreat can defend the Qing army's westward passage, and there is also a navy relying on Tan Jiang. It is really a treasure land that can be attacked and defended by retreat. Because Xinhui is so important, Li Dingguo concentrated his main force to attack Xinhui in the second attack of Guangdong, and Shang Kexi of Guangzhou also fought all his strength to protect this important place. In this important place, Zhou Shixiang said he would give up? (To be continued.)
