Chapter 68: The Battle of Qujing City

The ground was shaking, and the roaring sound of countless war horses spread far away, "Hurry, hurry up." On the mountain official road more than a hundred miles outside Qujing City, tens of thousands of cavalry were galloping toward Qujing City.

, these cavalry are all Manchu light cavalry coming from the direction of Guizhou to support them. Among them are the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty who surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

There were about two thousand Mongolian cavalry and more than a thousand Manchu Eight Banners disciples among the human cavalry. They all held strong bows and swords and quickly drove their horses. Countless dust rose up behind them, indicating that they were very fast.

, these cavalry troops rushed to support Qujing City over a long distance, and they all hurried on for fear of missing important events.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom" suddenly there was a thundering roar, and the ground shook. Countless iron filings, iron nails, lead bullets, sand, and stones flew out. Many war horses and knights were injured. "Kill!"

!" There were ambushes all around, and I don't know how many enemies there were. Gunfires were fired in succession, and a large number of cavalry were shot to death and wounded. Especially the generals in the team were the first to be taken care of by the musketeers, and they were singled out one by one.

All the famous people were dismissed one after another.

The huge roar caused the ears of the Manchu light cavalry to go numb for a moment, and their horses were frightened and ran around, unable to control themselves.

The still alive leaders led their cavalry to rush out, but countless knights were killed by the continuous volleys of guns in front of them before they rushed over. Only then did the brave Manchu light cavalry realize that the other side's musketeers were rushing forward when they saw them.

They rushed into the dug trenches. Countless spears protruded from the trenches. Many cavalrymen who did not react were stabbed to death or both men and horses were tripped to the ground by the wide trenches.

"Kill, kill the Tartars, kill!" "Kill!" The soldiers from both sides rushed to a place. The Manchu light cavalry who crossed the trenches discovered that there were countless musketeers and pike formations behind the trenches, which made them even more desperate.

There were countless iron blades and caltrops inserted into the ground, and the cavalrymen who rushed up one by one were not

Being shot to death by muskets meant that the horse's leg was injured by a hidden weapon on the ground and the cavalry fell down. The few cavalrymen who could rush over were also stabbed to death by the spearmen formation. Some Manchu and Qing cavalry blocked the spears and their horses

They rushed and trampled the soldiers of the Zhonghuo Revolutionary Army, and some Manchu and Qing cavalrymen were stabbed to death with spears.

The Manchu and Qing cavalry slammed into the pikemen and started fighting each other. Many Chinese Revolutionary Army ground knife teams wore thick iron plate armor and chopped off the legs of the horses. The more the Manchu and Qing knights fought, the fewer and fewer they fought.

"Surrender without killing!" "Surrender without killing!" The shouts made the morale of the surrounded Manchu Qing army cavalry, which was already in crisis, even lower. They had no chance of survival and could only fight to the death. But now that there is a chance of survival, let

Many cavalrymen who saw a way out surrendered.

Some veterans of the Han Eight Banners and Manchu Eight Banners have vowed not to surrender. Some of their families are in the Northeast, and some have moved to the capital. If the imperial court knew that they surrendered, their families would be affected. Maybe they would not be able to surrender to the imperial court.

They knew about it and went to investigate you in detail, but there was still a sense of loyalty and courage surging in their hearts, and they would rather die than surrender!

The battle gradually came to an end. The Chinese Revolutionary Army soldiers suffered between four and five thousand casualties, while the Manchu and Qing cavalry captured more than four thousand prisoners and two thousand more injured. All of them were given a happy life by the Chinese Revolutionary Army soldiers. With the current situation,

The level of medical treatment is not even able to save many of the seriously wounded members of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. With limited medical treatment, it is impossible to abandon our own people to save them. Who will let them resist? Kill them all.

Zhang Huahan, who was covered in the enemy's blood, saw that his troops had suffered heavy losses, with nearly 3,000 people killed and more than 1,000 wounded. It would be good if only half of those seriously wounded survived.

"I can't blame you for being able to defeat China, the great country of China. It is still so powerful after being surrounded. This kind of fighting power is indeed powerful. Remember to wash and disinfect the wounds of the wounded with wine." Zhang Huahan muttered to himself while talking to the person who managed the medical team.

shouted the medical officer.

"Brother Hua Han, please clean up quickly. It's all covered in blood." Xiaoyue pulled Zhang Huahan and said. She had arranged for someone to get some water nearby and prepared his clothes. Looking at that beautiful face,

Zhang Huahan happily agreed and looked at Xiaoyue.

"What are you looking at! I look at people like evil ghosts every day." "Hahaha, I can't see it. I can't help it. I can't see enough even if I look at it every day." Zhang Huahan avoided Kai Xiaoyue's pursuit and immediately went to change his clothes.

, he has to rush to Qujing City to take down this nail, because explosive packs can blow up the city.

The wall's powerful weapons have been used up. Most of the large artillery they are using now are still deployed in various towns and cities in Jiangnan. Because at that time, all the best weapons were sent to prevent the Manchu Qing from attacking the Jiangnan headquarters. Now they want to get it all at once.

I didn't come in time, so there was only a small amount.

In Qujing City, in a military tent of the Green Camp Army camp that was patrolled and protected by many Green Camp soldiers, six people gathered together and opened a piece of paper. That paper was a leaflet distributed by the Chinese Revolutionary Army airship.

"The day after tomorrow, South Gate, at midnight." They were reading the code words from the flyers, "Okay, everyone, be smart. The six of us are reserve members of the China Rise Party. With this military exploit, we will have more opportunities in the future.

officially joined the party

Qualifications, glory, wealth and the title of official are indispensable for us. When the time comes, brothers must unite sincerely, don't be afraid of death, and fight for our future." "Yes, yes, fight." Several people said impassionedly.

said.

At Haishi, five thousand Green Camp soldiers on duty in Qujing City, led by several Green Camp generals, came from the military camp in the city. They walked to the south gate to change defenses.

After the defense change and handover was completed, five thousand soldiers from the Green Camp Army walked up to the city wall and began to patrol. The withdrawal of the Chinese Revolutionary Army outside the city made all the defenders feel relieved. At night, the Eight Banners soldiers all returned to the military camp to rest.

, but the cautious Yabram ordered that three thousand green soldiers should be left behind at the gate of the city every night after HST for patrolling.

At midnight, there was a sound of birds chirping under the south gate of Qujing City. After drinking a lot of wine, the Manchu Ha Keduo, the chief guard guarding the south gate, heard the birds chirping and sat at the city gate and said confusedly: "There are still birds in the middle of the night. This bird

I'm not going to sleep either." "Sir, you've worked hard, why don't you go down and have a rest first." Ha Keduo saw that it was his deputy Green Camp Army Staff General ** Shen, and said: "Oh, you just invited me this afternoon.

i drank

, You will have to suffer more at night, haha, yes, General Zhang, you are very good, I am very optimistic about you." Ha Keduo nodded **Shen's nose and said, leading his dozens of Manba Banner disciples

I went back to the city, and I saw that the direction they were walking in was not towards the military camp at all, but towards the Zuihong Building. Where is the Zuihong Building? Of course it is the "Chicken" Yard, which is the favorite place for these guys at night.

.

"Hey, General Zhang, there are a lot of people outside the city. Look." Several sharp-eyed soldiers from the Green Camp said to General Zhang. General Zhang quickly went up to the city wall to take a look. Sure enough, tens of thousands of people wearing Manchu clothes appeared below the city.

They were dressed like soldiers of the Green Camp Army, except that everyone had a red strip of cloth tied around their left arm.

"Ah, it's my friend who is here with his brothers from the Green Camp Army. Open the city gate quickly." As soon as General Zhang said, dozens of Green Camp Army soldiers and generals immediately pulled the winch to open the city gate. Although many soldiers

They all had questions, but the Manchu generals and the Eight Banners soldiers left in vain. Now that General Zhang was the biggest, they did not dare to say anything after he said this. Besides, many generals did not say anything, so naturally they could not come forward to raise questions.

When tens of thousands of soldiers with muskets and various weapons entered the south city gate, those soldiers took their weapons and ran towards the city. General Zhang Shen gathered three thousand Green Camp soldiers. At this time, the Green Camp soldiers

Already discovered something was wrong, those green battalion sergeants who came in

The muskets held by the soldiers turned out to be fast guns of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. They even saw a few rare rifles that the Chinese Revolutionary Army had just developed and put on the battlefield. Of course, they could not recognize them as advanced rifles, but they also knew that the Manchus

The army does not have such firearms.

"Brothers, you have probably guessed what is going on. Now we are going to follow the Chinese Revolutionary Army to conquer the Qing Tatars. We are Han people, and we have the blood of Han people in our bodies. By following the Chinese Revolutionary Army, we can achieve a harmonious society.

We have lived a life where everyone has food to eat and clothing to wear.

We were all born poor, and now we are going to conquer this world for your poor brothers and sisters. Brothers, I welcome those who are willing to come with me to fight the Tartars, and those who are not willing can leave. But once I find that you are helping the Tatars,

, the next time we meet, it will be your death."

Most of these Green Camp soldiers also know the goodness of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, and many are willing to rebel against General Zhang. There are also about a thousand people who want to go home, but they know that all the homes in the areas occupied by the Chinese Revolutionary Army have been divided.

, they are going back to farm and live a good life.

Yabulan frowned and looked at the map on the wall. He doubted the intentions of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. They surrounded the city for a few days and then left. Did they go to get reinforcements? As soon as the Chinese Revolutionary Army troops withdrew, he

He also received news that the 10,000 cavalrymen who came to help were destroyed. Since they were destroyed, they should have attacked Qujing City. Why did they retreat? He was puzzled.

At this moment, shouts of killing suddenly rang out in the city, and flames shot into the sky. Yabulan hurried to the yard and saw that both the Green Camp and the Eight Banners Army were on fire, and there were shouts of killing all around.

"Ah! How did they enter the city?" Yabulan went back to the house and hung up the armor on the wall, picked up the strong bow and sword and walked out. When he was preparing to go to the military camp with the 388 Banner Guards, at this time

From the direction of the military camp, dozens of Eight Banners generals covered in blood were running on horseback.

He ran in and said, "Sir, run quickly. We are surrounded by enemies wearing green camp uniforms. We can't tell the difference between ourselves and the enemy. There are too many enemies. Most of our brothers in the military camp were killed or burned to death in their sleep."

Come on, sir, leave quickly, the situation is over, Qujing City cannot be defended."

"Ah!" Yabulan's liver and gallbladder burst after hearing the news. "You are all cowards, turn around and kill me." He led the guards of the 380 Banners and rode towards the military camp ahead.

Yabulan led his men into the military camp, and out of the barracks came a group of musketeers wearing green army uniforms and armed with Chinese Revolutionary Army rifles. They fired at them indiscriminately, killing many of Yabulan's guards.

"Kill, kill these bandits." Yabulan was shot in the abdomen by a bullet. He didn't care. He shouted and rushed forward with his soldiers, slashing and killing the musketeers who had no time to reload.

At this time, a group of cavalry rushed out from inside. The two knights at the front were both handsome young men. One was holding a spear and the other was wielding two swords, and they came quickly.

"Swish, swish, swish" Yabulan and the dozens of guards around him fired their bows and arrows. Immediately, several more Chinese Revolutionary Army soldiers fell to the ground. Zhang Huahan and Xiaoyue knocked the flying arrows away and quickly approached each other. Zhang Huahan

Holding a new pistol with seven bullets in his hand, he raised the gun and fired, killing seven Manchu knights with seven shots. Because Yabulan was protected by the guards, Zhang Huahan could not shoot him.

The cavalry from both sides collided, and both sides were slashing with swords and guns. Zhang Huahan danced the steel spear in his hand and flew left and right, dancing with countless light stars. Immediately, four Manchu knights were impaled and fell from their horses.

Yabulan crossed paths with Xiaoyue, and was stabbed in the throat by Xiaoyue's illusory sword shadow, "Ah, sir!" When the Knights of the Eight Banners saw their general died in battle, they all shouted: "Avenge me, sir!

Kill!" The mournful soldiers will win and are determined to die.

They rushed up like crazy on stimulants. The five hundred Chinese Revolutionary Army cavalry led by Zhang Huahan were beaten back steadily. If Zhang Huahan and Xiaoyue hadn't stood their ground, they would have been driven back.

.

Thousands of pikemen and musketeers came out from the military camp and killed all the Manchu soldiers of the Eight Banners. No one surrendered until the last Eight Banners soldier was killed. Most of the 500 cavalry led by Zhang Huahan were also killed or wounded.

, suffered heavy losses.

The sky gradually became brighter, and thick smoke floated into the sky. As the wind in the sky gradually dispersed, the fire had been extinguished by the soldiers of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. The soldiers began to bury the bodies or clean the battlefield.

In the commander-in-chief's residence in Qujing City, Zhang Huahan was discussing with the generals the main force to advance towards Guizhou City when suddenly a messenger came in and said, "Report to the deputy commander, here is a letter sent by an eight hundred mile expedited airship from Guangdong.

This is given to you by Master Zhao Qijin."

Zhang Huahan took the letter and opened it. He was immediately shocked. The generals saw his expression change and asked him what happened. Zhang Huahan's expression quickly returned to normal. "It's okay. Mr. Zhao wants me to go to Guangdong. It's okay."

, let's quickly set the strategic goals." He said, and immediately urgently discussed the next strategic goals with the generals. The rest of the battle would be up to them to play freely, and Zhang Huahan quickly took Xiaoyue to the airship.

Fly quickly to Guangdong.

On the airship, Zhang Huahan was experiencing the ups and downs of the new trend. He was very worried because the content of the letter Zhao Qijin sent him turned out to be that Huang Zongxi led a group of old scholars to oppose the New Deal. They resolutely resisted the implementation of simplified Chinese characters and the equalization of land.

Boycott miscellaneous studies, boycott the Chinese Revolutionary Army’s policy of favoring business and suppressing scholars, boycott the college’s enrollment of majors and the establishment of subjects other than Chinese, and boycott all students who do not learn eight-legged essays and only learn simplified Chinese characters.

Zhao Qijin also found out that there were traces of the Tiandihui among these people. It was very likely that some people from the Tiandihui were fanning the wind to start a fire and sowing dissension. When he wrote the letter, he told Zhang Huahan that he and Huang Zongxi had already broken up and were about to fall out.

After a full martial arts show, he begged Zhang Huahan to come to Guangdong as soon as possible after seeing the letter to resolve the matter.

In fact, the policies of the Chinese Revolutionary Army jointly promoted by Zhang Huahan and Huang Ziya impacted the interests of scholars and landlords. When becoming an official, you do not need to take the exam on eight-part essays, but on politics and construction. The former police officers and now the police take exams on criminology and psychology.

One series is about the ability to handle cases, so

The policies of the literati class made the scholar class study the Four Books and Five Classics for a lifetime. Scholars who wrote eight-legged essays had no chance to become officials. The Chinese revolutionary military government looked at ability. As long as you have ability, peasants can also become high officials. If you don’t have ability,

Sorry, even the most famous scholar cannot do it.

Under the policies of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, many retired officials and scholars who had studied hard for decades were dissatisfied with the Chinese Revolutionary Army. There were several riots in Jiangnan, and once there was a conflict,

In the end, Huang Ziya personally came forward to persuade those people to go home. The few who refused to go home kept pestering them and were dragged out by the soldiers. Zhang Huahan only heard about these things but did not witness them with his own eyes.

Now things in Guangdong are far more complicated than in Jiangnan. They actually involve people from the Tiandihui. The people from the Tiandihui are a team composed of some boxers from Fujian Southern Shaolin and Guangzhou to fight against the Manchus. Many of them have joined the militia of the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

Troops, there are still a few powerful soldiers who have entered

They have joined the regular troops of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. It is said that it is impossible for them to mix with the scholars. This time it is really strange. Although Huang Zongxi is a bit pedantic, he still has the overall concept. How could he mix with those scholars?

What? Zhang Huahan’s head hurts when he thinks of this.

The speed of the airship was very fast. They used a small steam engine to turn the turbine to rotate and propel the airship forward. The airship flew non-stop. By noon the next day, it had already arrived at the Guangzhou Garrison Headquarters of the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

When Zhang Huahan saw Zhao Qijin, he looked tired. Before Zhang Huahan could speak, Zhao Qijin spoke first, "Chief, I, Huang Zongxi, have detained you." "What? What's going on?" Zhang Huahan didn't expect it.

He has always been more steady in his work

Zhao Qijin actually detained Huang Zongxi, who was in charge of Guangdong government affairs. He knew that the other party must have a reason, but no matter what happened, his heart was still blocked. Maybe he was not a politician at all, Zhang Huahan thought.

road.

"Governor Huang openly led more than 3,000 Shilins and more than 500 Tiandihui officials to fight against the officials sent by Jiangnan to supervise land reform and other policies. The most disgusting thing is that they actually killed three people. I saw that the situation was really out of control.

Well, we simply arrested everyone. After putting Governor Huang under house arrest, various policies can be implemented more easily. Chief, I

I have no choice but to do so." Zhao Qijin's tired look was very helpless. There were still nearly 100,000 Manchu and Qing defenders gathered in Guangzhou City, and the people in the surrounding Tiandihui were also dishonest. Several militia leaders in Guangdong were assassinated.

He suspected that it was all the fault of people from the Tiandihui. There had been countless bad news in the past few days, which made him a little exhausted.
