Hong Xiuquan saw the Qing army repulsed, his face was filled with joy, but he looked crazy, and there was still a hint of coldness in his eyes. He stared at the Qing army outside the Tianwang Palace, and also saw the foreign soldiers standing outside the palace. Hong Xiuquan flicked his sleeves and said in a cold voice: "Lars, I have not only your well-equipped army under my command, but also my own strength. I have long known that foreigners are unreliable, so I formed this army early." An army of heavenly kings, if you follow Li Zhen, you will die, and Li Zhen will die too."
These words were instantly drowned out in the noisy Tianwang Mansion. Except for the people standing around Hong Xiuquan, no one heard what he said. Compared to the entire battlefield, Hong Xiuquan seemed to be talking to himself.
The soldiers of the Heavenly King's Army rushed out of the gate of the mansion and rushed outside.
This charge ignores a practical fact.
The gate of the Heavenly King's Mansion is customized according to the specifications of nine meters wide, but there are 3,000 Heavenly King's troops in the Heavenly King's Palace. When the soldiers stay in the Heavenly King's Palace, because the Heavenly King's Palace is vast and covers a large area, they will not feel crowded inside. , but now all the soldiers rushed out of the gate in a swarm and were immediately affected.
Moreover, everyone wanted to squeeze outside, creating a chaotic situation.
People are crowded, but no one gives in.
The neat army instantly became chaotic, and they were still insulting each other.
When Li Zhen saw this situation, he immediately deduced that the soldiers under Hong Xiuquan's command had been trained but had no actual combat experience. This would never happen to soldiers who often fought hard on the battlefield.
Li Zhen looked at Lu Shaochuan and said calmly: "Captain Lu, Hong Xiuquan has revealed all his trump cards. The soldiers you sent were repulsed. Should you ask your soldiers to retreat and send Yang Banhou's soldiers, or should you? It’s still up to you.”
"Of course I'll go."
When Lu Shaochuan heard that Yang Banhou was going to go, he said excitedly: "That old bastard Hong Xiuquan is my food. No one can take it from me. Please don't worry, Commander, I will complete the task beautifully." After finishing speaking, , Lu Shaochuan also glanced at Yang Banhou and Smith warily, signaling the two of them with his eyes not to act rashly.
He turned his eyes and instantly looked at the soldiers under his command, shouting: "You bastards, the bandits have rushed out. Do you keep your grenades for yourself to swallow? Throw them to me, throw them hard, we If you have money, you don't care about these grenades. Who the hell is saving it for me? I'm in a hurry with him."
"Cough, cough,..."
After hearing this, Li Zhen coughed.
Lu Shaochuan asked: "Commander, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Li Zhen shook his head repeatedly. How could he say that he was stimulated by Lu Shaochuan's words.
Lu Shaochuan looked at the soldiers under his command again and shouted: "The bandits have rushed out. They are in a hurry to die. Don't show mercy. Throw the grenades immediately and seize the time." This guy's voice was very loud, and his deep voice was heard in the Tianwang Mansion. The order was passed on outside, and the soldiers under his command relayed it, and all the soldiers heard it.
One by one, the soldiers took out grenades, pulled the match cord, and threw them towards the gate of Tianwang Mansion.
In the blink of an eye, the grenade fell into the crowd.
"boom,."
A loud noise erupted among the crowd under the gate of Tianwang Mansion. After the grenade exploded, corpses flew everywhere, and bright red blood spilled on the ground. The soldiers who were hit by the bomb were all bloody and bloody.
Suddenly, screams suddenly sounded.
However, such an explosion was just the beginning. One after another grenades flew through the sky, and then fell into the crowd. The explosions sounded one after another, mixed with the screams of the soldiers of the King of Heaven, and there were tragic scenes. They were intertwined, messy but bloody. When Hong Xiuquan saw the situation at the door, he felt as if he had been pricked by needles.
These soldiers were all his hard work, and now they are dying so miserably.
The most important thing was that the soldiers under Li Zhen used their weapons, which were too powerful for Hong Xiuquan to accept. At the same time, Hong Xiuquan also understood that the width of the gate limited the speed of the soldiers' attack, making it difficult to fight back.
Hong Xiuquan was anxious and shouted: "Shoot, shoot..."
He yelled hysterically, and the soldiers under his command hurriedly spread the words and orders. The soldiers who rushed out of the Tianwang Mansion and were frightened by the successive explosions reacted. Now that they had received the order, the soldiers raised their guns and charged towards the Jiangbei camp. soldiers fired.
Li Zhen said coldly: "Smith, the soldiers under your command are responsible for shooting the soldiers who rush out."
"yes."
Smith got the order and ordered the soldiers to fire back.
On the battlefield, the soldiers under Lu Shaochuan kept throwing grenades, and the soldiers under Smith used guns to shoot the Taiping soldiers who rushed out. With the soldiers under Smith's command shooting to block the attack, the soldiers in the Tianwang Mansion could not rush forward at all. If you come out, even if you rush out of the Tianwang Mansion, you will be shot immediately.
This continued, and Hong Xiuquan's heart became cold.
Unexpectedly, the soldiers under Li Zhen's command were so powerful, and their weapons were unprecedented. The soldiers of the Tianwang Mansion were so frightened that they no longer dared to rush forward and hid in the gate of the Tianwang Mansion.
Hong Xiuquan changed his mind and ordered in a deep voice: "Send the order and order the Heavenly King's Army to occupy various locations in the Heavenly King's Mansion to prevent Li Zhen's soldiers from rushing in. As long as we persist, we will be able to wait until the other soldiers in the city come to rescue. When the time comes, If soldiers from all over the city come to attack, Li Zhen will definitely withdraw on his own, and we may even have to keep Li Zhen."
The generals of the Heavenly King's Army began to retreat and occupy a favorable position to defend.
Li Zhen looked at the soldiers of the Heavenly King's Army who had retreated into the Heavenly King's Mansion, with a sneer on his lips.
If you just want to block his army, then there is no need to come out and mess around.
Before Li Zhen could speak, Lu Shaochuan had already spoken: "Commander, the soldiers under my command can serve as vanguards." Lu Shaochuan was injured by Chen Yucheng, and all his resentment was directed at the Taiping Army, especially the soldiers just now. Being repulsed was a loss of face, so I immediately stood up and asked for a fight.
Li Zhen nodded and said, "Okay, leave it to you."
Lu Shaochuan responded with a happy face and said loudly: "You bastards, you just rushed into the house, but you were kicked out. I don't have any luster on my face, and our entire regiment also loses its luster."
Having said this, Lu Shaochuan pointed at his heart and shouted: "I feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable. You guys can take down the Heavenly King's Mansion for me and fight for me. Let me feel refreshed and unite for us." Fighting for honor makes our regiment invincible."
After a battle, Lu Shaochuan was promoted to the honor of the entire regiment.
It happened that these soldiers did this because the army under Li Zhen was divided into five regiments. Each regiment had its own style, but there was competition between each regiment. So when Lu Shaochuan mentioned the honor of the regiment, The fighting consciousness of all the soldiers suddenly became stronger, and a strong fighting spirit permeated the air, condensing into an invincible military spirit.
"Look at me, I'll go to the front."
A soldier rushed forward, but when he was about to rush to the gate, he bent down, picked up the body of a Taiping Army soldier and blocked it in front of him, and then continued to rush towards the Tianwang Mansion.
Immediately, another soldier said: "Damn, there is a natural shield, just use it."
One by one, the soldiers held up a corpse lying on the ground and rushed into the palace of the King of Heaven.
