"Those who retreat later die!"

Under the gaze of Zhou Shixiang and his personal guards, the defeated soldiers did not dare to resist, so they had to turn around and turn back. After finding that the general led his personal guards to reinforce Jiang Fan, the blind Li at the foot of the mountain was so anxious when he saw it, but his duty was to lead the Iron Man Guard to nail it to the official road. If he did not get the order, Zhou Shixiang would be the first to ask for his head.

Although the blind Li Hun also knew the importance of the Iron Man Guard being stuck in the official road. As long as the Iron Man Guard is present, the Iron Man Guard can also stabilize the situation. If the Iron Man Guard leaves the official road, the defeated soldiers will definitely run backwards without anyone to supervise the formation, and the Qing army can take advantage of the situation and rush out of the official road. Then this battle will be defeated. After all, the Iron Man Guard is the last line of defense of the Taiping Army. The Iron Man Guard is present and the Taiping Army is present; the Iron Man Guard is destroyed, and the Taiping Army is destroyed.

"Sit down, don't waste your energy, what will happen will be our battle!"

The blind Li Henhen glanced at the Qing army rushing to the mountain, and his hand holding the big hammer was extremely itchy.

After Zhou Shixiang led his men to rush up, more than a hundred Chaozhou soldiers came up from the slope and found a group of Taiping soldiers protecting Zhou Shixiang. They immediately shouted loudly. The leader of the team was eager to make contributions. Without waiting for the Zhili soldiers from afar to come up together, they led their subordinates to rush towards Zhou Shixiang.

Zhou Shixiang's personal guards were selected from the Iron Man Guards. Everyone was a good player during the competition, even if these Chaozhou soldiers were killed, dozens of Chaozhou soldiers were immediately chopped over to the ground, and the Chaozhou soldiers were kicked and rolled down the hillside. The other Chaozhou soldiers were frightened to retreat immediately when they saw this.

Zhou Shi did not care about his breath and commanded the defeated soldiers and gathered soldiers to pursue the fleeing Chaozhou soldiers. He led his personal guards to reinforce Jiang Fan, who was surrounded by several Qing soldiers. Suna led his cavalry to come over. These cavalrymen were good at killing the enemy immediately, and killing people was no problem. The reinforcements of Suna's troops lifted the threat of the Taiping Army's gun team at the foot of the mountain, causing the Qing army who wanted to rush to the official road to retreat.

When Zhou Shixiang led his personal guards to 100 meters away from Jiang Fan's troops, a team of Tongzhou archers discovered them, and dozens of bows immediately turned around and shot them at them.

Zhou Shixiang's personal guard was tall and big. Although he was wearing iron armor on the hillside, the Qing army's arrow branches could not be broken through the iron armor unless they shot directly at the gate of the Mingmen. Seeing the Qing army's archery, the personal guards hurriedly surrounded Zhou Shixiang and slashed the arrow branches that were shot. The arrows fell on the iron armor and made a "bang" sound.

"kill!"

Zhou Shixiang pushed away an arrow and roared at the team of Qing army archers. More than a dozen personal guards jumped down from the left front and rushed towards the Qing army's arrow branches. The Qing army archers had no armor on their bodies. Seeing more than a dozen iron armored soldiers running to them, the arrow branches could not be penetrated. They were so scared that they turned around and ran away. The personal guards only chased a few cut down, but the rest of the soldiers asked them to run down the mountain because of their unfast speed.

Yang Zhenwei, the general of Zhending, who was leading his personal soldiers to urge Zhenbiao to besiege the Taiping Army, found reinforcements coming from the Taiping Army. Although the number was not large, he rushed his troops into pieces. He couldn't help but be furious and took his sword and took people up to stop them.

A group of southern barbarians dare to stop the Qing soldiers and ask you to see how powerful the Beidier Lang is!

Two or three hundred Zhending soldiers followed Yang Zhenwei and rushed towards Zhou Shixiang. After the Qing soldiers in front of the camp of the A Brigade, they pressed down the mountain, and found that there was danger here by the Grand General, so they quickly led the team to protect the Grand General. Yang Zhenwei was blocked. Hundreds of soldiers from both sides chopped and killed each other around more than a hundred big trees.

On the other side, hundreds of Tongzhou soldiers surrounded a team of more than 100 Taiping Army. Under the shooting of Qing archers below, dozens of Taiping Army fell down, and the Yuzhe regiment fought to the death around Li Sanjiang, a hundred households.

"Stand up, you can't retreat. The general brought people to reinforce us. The brothers said they could not retreat, and they fought with his mother's Qing Yao!"

Li Sanjiang was a miner from Laofengzhuang copper mine and a fanatical Luo scholar. The one who talked the most in the army was that Zhou Dashui was Grandpa Yue who came to earth. He wanted to lead them into Beijing, eat raw Tartar meat and drink Tartar blood. After one person got a Manzhou princess.

The fanatical Luo Cultist Li Sanjiang roared at the Qing army like a wild beast and roared at him and killed him. However, more than ten meters away from the Qing army, he was shot into a honeycomb by several oncoming arrows. After being caught, Li Sanjiang looked at the Qing army unwillingly, and walked forward two steps forward. Then his knees became weak and he fell to the ground. What he thought before his death was that he could finally enter the Hero Martyrs' Temple to be the patron essay of the Luo Cult. He became the guardian saint of the Han people for generations, and enjoyed the incense of the Han children for generations!

"The Lord of the Hundred Houses has become a god! Avenge the Lord of the Hundred Houses!"

Several Luo scholars rushed towards the Qing army with roars.

"Avenge your family!"

"See you in the Martyrs' Temple!"

Seeing this, the remaining Taiping Army roared and avenged Li Sanjiang and rushed towards the Qing army.

"There are too many Qing soldiers, so we can't stand it!"

Zhang Rong, a small flag from the Han army, was born in the Jingnan vassal state. Seeing that there were too many Qing troops rushing up the mountain, they could not kill them, and they couldn't help but feel afraid.

Liang Jiayou, who was also a member of the Han army under the Jingnan vassal state, cursed: "If you can't stand it, you have to bear it!"

"Brother Liang, let's run away!" Zhang Rong was really scared, he didn't want to fight again.

"run?"

Liang Jiayou, who was covered in blood, looked at Zhang Rong and said angrily: "Where to run!"

"You can run anywhere, and you will die here if you don't run!" Because of fear, Zhang Rong's voice trembled.

But Liang Jiayou grabbed him suddenly and shouted: "Do you want to kill your wife and children?"

Zhang Rong was stunned. If he ran away, the Taiping Army in Guangzhou would definitely kill all his wife and children, but he was really scared that he didn't want to die here.

"Don't think about running away. We are not defeated yet. If you hold on, the Qing army's casualties are greater than ours. If you hold on, we can win this battle!"

Zhang Rong pointed to the corpses that fell everywhere and said tremblingly: "Everyone is almost dead, I can't hold on!"

"We have to hold on if we can't hold on. We have no other way to go. The braids have been cut. If we don't defeat these Qing troops, they will kill our wives and children after killing us. We must fight with them, even if we die, we will die here!"

Liang's friend almost roared at Zhang Rong. Zhang Rong hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't bear to die tragically. He gritted his teeth and rushed towards the Qing army in front with a knife.

Jiang Fan led the A Brigade to intercept the Zhili soldiers and Chaozhou soldiers who were climbing on the left, while Zhu Qinglai led the B Brigade to block the Henan soldiers who were climbing on the right. Compared with the progress of the Zhili soldiers and Chaozhou soldiers on the left, the Henan soldiers were driven down by the Taiping army of the B Brigade before they even climbed up half a hill.

General Liu Zhong, General Guide and General Zhang Chao of Nanyang, were unwilling to fail, and organized manpower to climb again. The two sides fought together on the slope only fifty or sixty meters below the mountain. Zhu Qing came to lead the way. Seventy percent of his part were veterans who joined the Taiping Army before the Xinhui bloody battle. Under the leadership of these loyal officers and veterans, Brigade B again severely damaged the Henan camp soldiers, and the Henan soldiers suffered 700 casualties. They had to retreat to the foot of the mountain to reorganize.

After Liu Zhong and Zhang Chao retreated, the Manzhou governor Na Hai rushed over and refused to let the two generals argue for him. He just whipped the two generals and blew them up, but he dared not speak out.

"Organize your soldiers to rush for me again. If you lose again, I will ask you to know what the Qing Dynasty's military law is!"

Na Hai didn't care how many people died in the green camp, nor did he care that Liu Zhong and Zhang Chao were general officers, he only wanted Xuanwu Mountain.

Under Na Hai's threat, Liu Zhong and Zhang Chao had to organize their troops to go up the mountain again, but the failure of the two attacks made the Henan soldiers lose their spirits. The bodies of companions everywhere on the mountain also made them frightened. Even if Liu Zhong and Zhang Chao led their personal soldiers to urge them, the Henan soldiers were also slow to make progress.

The battle situation on the mountain on the left was becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Taiping Army. After Wu Liuqi attacked the upper half of the hillside, he led his personal soldiers to the mountain himself, trying to do his best.

Wu Liuqi was very skilled in martial arts. When he was young, he was wandering in a temple in Fenghuang Mountain to do odd jobs. The monk in the temple taught his disciples' sticks at night, and Wu Liuqi learned it when he watched. The monk went down the mountain at dawn. Wu Liuqi competed with his disciples. He didn't want to kill him by mistake, so he tied up himself to wait for the monk to lose his skills. However, the monk admired his sticks and kept him in the temple. Another day, Wu Liuqi met a tiger at night, so he killed him with a stick; and he also killed him with a tiger.

Wu Liuqi not only has excellent martial arts skills, but also has a strange appearance. His bearded eyebrows are flying horizontally to the left, looking like a god. Although his appearance is rough, he is meticulous and always conceited with his strategy. A scholar once ridiculed Wu Liuqi as a martial artist in the first couplet "There is no scholar at home, where does the official come from?", but he responded to the second couplet: "Generals and ministers are not born, so men should be self-reliant."

Wu Liuqi had a nickname called "General Dali", but when he was wandering in Zhejiang in his early years, he hid the leftover rice in a big bell in a broken temple. As a result, he raised the big bell with one hand to get the rice, and asked Cha Jizuo, a juren of Zhejiang. He was shocked and called him General Dali. Later, Wu Liuqi joined the army, and the nickname "General Dali" spread.

Although Wu Liuqi, who had been killed by two tigers when he was young, had his fifty birthday last year, his body was still strong and his hair was not white. He looked like about forty people. He held the big iron stick he used when he was young and led his personal soldiers to climb up the mountain and was invincible all the way. There were no less than a dozen Taiping Army people who died under his stick, forcing no Taiping Army in front of him to retreat.

When the Chaozhou soldiers witnessed the admiral's majesty, they immediately burst into cheers. Everyone shouted at the name of General Wu Liuqi. Zhou Shixiang, who was fighting with the Zhili soldiers, was also attracted by the sound. When he looked over, a man in his sight held up an iron stick, and he looked like a strange man under the sunlight.

"What a strange beggar, what a powerful general!"

Zhou Shixiang's eyes were slightly cumbersome, knowing that the man must be Wu Liuqi, the general of Chaozhou. He showed off his martial arts skills, but when he saw Wu Liuqi's morale was revealed, he still rushed towards Wu Liuqi.

"The Grandmaster can't go!"

When the guards saw Wu Liuqi's stick technique, they knew that this person was powerful, and their general was afraid that he would not be his opponent. They were worried that he would come forward to dissuade him.

"If we don't kill Wu Liuqi, our army's morale will not be boosted!"

Zhou Shixiang pushed away the personal guards who were holding him, and was determined to kill Wu Liuqi. The personal guards could not dissuade him, so they had to carry a sword to surround Zhou Shixiang, even if they were fighting to die, they would protect the general's safety.

"Sir, the thief is the thief!"

Wu Liuqi's personal soldiers discovered Zhou Shixiang and his party running from the mountain. Wu Liuqi also saw Zhou Shixiang. The young face of the thief scholar impressed him when he was in Lu Feng, how could he not recognize him?

"What a thief scholar, do you want to compete with me?"

Wu Liuqi was very proud. He was confident enough to kill the thief scholar in front of the formation with one blow. He dared not say that the whole world was in the world. But in Guangdong, if Wu Liuqi said that martial arts was second, who would dare to be the first!

"Calendar with me to kill that thief scholar!"

Wu Liuqi rushed forward with a stick. He knew that Prince Jian at the foot of the mountain was watching. If Wu Liuqi could kill the thief scholar with one stick, how glory would Prince Jian look at it!

Before Zhou Shixiang got closer, he shouted loudly: "Wu Liuqi, I heard that you are a powerful general, but I don't know how strong you are!"

"A thief scholar, how strong is this official is, you will know after trying it!"

Wu Liuqi rushed forward with a grim smile, holding the iron stick high, trying to kill Zhou Shi with one stick on the spot, but with a "bang", a light smoke came from the thief scholar, and he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and then he couldn't stand steadily, flying back like a kite.

"What can you do if you have great strength and good martial arts skills? You are always not as powerful as my pistol!"

Looking at the pistol given by Macau Governor Bugalo in his hand, Zhou Shixiang showed a very satisfied expression and thought that after this battle, the pistol must be equipped with one for each officer, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with when encountering a Qing general with excellent martial arts.
