"King Zhong, we can't attack like this anymore, the firepower of the Qingzi army is too strong, and we have already killed and injured many brothers."
Chen Kunshu came down from the front line, wiped the beads of sweat from his head, and shouted into Li Xiucheng's handsome tent."
Protector, you came just in time, and this king happens to have something to discuss with you."
Li Xiucheng hurriedly walked down from the handsome position, pulled Chen Kunshu in front of the topographic map, and continued, "This is what this king also means, this place in Jinkui County is too narrow, which is not conducive to the development of the large army, although we have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, but we are concentrated together to charge.You see if we can do this," Li Xiucheng pointed to Taihu Lake and moved along the lake to Suzhou."
Does King Taihu Zhongwang mean to take the waterway and attack Suzhou directly, but if the Qing army blocks the waterway, we will become a turtle in the urn, surrounded by the defenders of Jinkui City and Suzhou."
Chen Kunshu looked at the topographic map and frowned.Li Xiucheng chuckled, and compared back and forth to the topographic map, "Don't worry about the guards, this king means this, we only besiege Jinkui City, set up a camp outside the city, we carry enough grain and grass this time, this king wants to see how much time the Qingzi army can consume in the city, and in addition, it is fortified layer by layer between Jinkui City on Suzhou Road, if the defenders of Suzhou City come to support, we will come to a siege point to help."
There is also the most important move, we from the army to draw 20,000 elites, surprise attack Suzhou, as long as Suzhou is in chaos, Jinkuicheng will inevitably shake the morale of the army, but they are withdrawn to help, or hold on, we can all occupy the initiative, to wait for work. ”Chen Kunshu stared at the topographic map and looked at the meeting, and then he suddenly realized, and praised again and again, "Gao, this move of King Zhong is too good, and his subordinates will go down to prepare." ”At this time, it was already dark, and just as Chen Kunshu was selecting the best in the army, more than 10,000 people from the former division sent by Qiao Zhiqing had already gone down to Taihu Lake by boat, and rushed to Changzhou by water.The armies of both sides were calm for three days, Li Xiucheng didn't know what Qiao Zhiqing's idea was, but Qiao Zhiqing saw Li Xiucheng clearly, the two of them arranged their own troops with different era tactics, Li Xiucheng's use of foreign gun formations was far less proficient than Qiao Zhiqing, and his thoughts were still in the era of cold weapons, thinking that 100,000 men and horses could really trap more than 10,000 Qingzi troops equipped with foreign guns and artillery."
Report to the marshal, the fire wolf special operations team has been assembled, please give instructions to the marshal."
Under the scorching sun, on the training ground of the pro-military camp, Huang Feihong took more than 50 special combat personnel wearing camouflage uniforms to stand in turn, these more than 50 people are all sixteen or seventeen-year-old young people, all of them have unique skills, excellent martial arts, sweat has penetrated the clothes of each team member, but no one moved, all of them have keen eyes and straight posture and look straight ahead.After Hu Wenhai's mention in the past few days, Huang Feihong's spirit is more mellow than before, and his face no longer looks young and vigorous, but on the contrary, he exudes a steady atmosphere.Qiao Zhiqing ordered his subordinates to carry up a heavy box, and smiled at the special combat members, "You are the elite of the elite of our Qingzi army, and this commander believes that no matter where you go, it will be a group of howling wolves."
But a good horse with a good saddle, Ben Shuai still wants to give you something today, with it Ben Shuai believes that your wolf teeth will be sharper. ”After Qiao Zhiqing finished speaking, the members of the fire wolf were all staring at the box in front of them with curiosity on their faces, since Qiao Zhiqing said that it was a baby, it must be no worse."
Huang Feihong, out of the ranks.""
Here."
After Qiao Zhiqing gave the order, Huang Feihong yelled and stood up in the line."
Ben Shuai heard that you have a thallium flying stunt, and you are now demonstrating it in front of all your brothers."
Qiao Zhiqing said and asked people to hand a two-pound weighing stone to Huang Feihong, and pointed to the treetops fifty meters away from the edge of the training ground, on which a blue and white porcelain vase hung on the treetops.Huang Feihong smiled indifferently, took the scale, shook it in his hand, took a step ahead, turned around, and the scale in his hand flew out towards the blue and white porcelain vase, accurately smashing the porcelain vase."
Mighty, mighty."
The members of the special operations group applauded violently.Qiao Zhiqing smiled slightly, and asked the guards around him to move the porcelain vase to the treetops a hundred meters away, and handed Huang Feihong a weighing stone.Huang Feihong hesitated slightly, but still took it, jumped up, stepped on the ground with his right foot as the fulcrum, turned his body around, and threw the scale in his hand with a "whoosh".Because the distance was too far, even if Huang Feihong used all the strength in his hands, the weighing stone still fell thirty meters away from the porcelain vase.All the members of the special operations team sighed, but still applauded Huang Feihong.Qiao Zhiqing chuckled lightly and took out a shell gun from the box, the members of the special operations team stared at this swarthy iron guy with wide eyes, and they didn't know what Qiao Zhiqing was going to do with this thing."
Come on, replace the porcelain vase with stone."
Qiao Zhiqing shouted a word to the guards, and corrected the distance with the aiming of the shell gun."
Look ahead, little cubs."
Qiao Zhiqing smiled confidently and broke the insurance."
Boom."
A huge gunshot rang out, and the members of the special operations team were all stunned, only to see that the big stone at the mouth of the bowl 50 meters away turned into broken foam in response."
Mighty, mighty."
Everyone was stunned for a moment and exclaimed loudly."
Dashuai, what kind of secret weapon are you, it's really amazing."
Huang Feihong stared at the guy in Qiao Zhiqing's hand with wide eyes, and the members of the special operations team also gathered around, pointing at the swarthy guy."
This is not a secret weapon, it is science, after you have carried out this mission, I will go to Huaxing Academy for further study."
Qiao Zhiqing smiled and threw the shell gun in Huang Feihong's hand, allowing the guards to open the box and give one to each special combat member.The members of the special operations team played with the shell guns with surprise on their faces, as if the knights in the rivers and lakes had obtained some amazing sword."
The guy you are holding in your hand is called a shell gun, which weighs about two catties, the gun is 28 centimeters long, and has an effective range of 50,150 meters, which belongs to the same firearm series as the Enfield rifle you usually train, and it relies on the explosive power in the bullet to eject the bullet, but this barge gun is easier to carry, and it can fire 20 bullets in a row, which is more powerful than the Enfield rifle."
Qiao Zhiqing introduced it to the team members in detail, disassembled the shell gun into parts, showed the team members the internal structure of the guns, and then assembled them one by one, skillfully and quickly, causing everyone to exclaim again and again, and worship Qiao Zhiqing to the extreme.After everyone figured out the principle of the shell gun, they practiced on the training ground until the evening, and basically they could skillfully disassemble and assemble it.Qiao Zhiqing struck while the iron was hot, lit torches, distributed the guns and ammunition to the team members, and then taught them the methods and skills of shooting.The members of the "bang, bang, bang" and "bang, bang, bang" special operations group all practiced all night with excitement on their faces.At dawn on the second day, the members of the special operations group inexplicably did not know where they were sent and disappeared in the pro-military barracks, and even the battalion commander Hu Wenhai did not know.Li Xiucheng searched the county seat of Wuxi for three days, and finally got more than 500 small boats, and in order to avoid alarming the Qing army in Suzhou, he deliberately chose the landing site in Yuyangli, southwest of Suzhou, where the population is sparse and the lake is low and flat, which is the most suitable for landing on the beach.Taking advantage of the night, the landing fleet swam back and forth four times, transporting more than 20,000 people ashore, and after the Taiping army returned to assemble, they marched towards Suzhou City, standing on a high place and even seeing the city tower of Suzhou.When the army marched to Mudu Town, the generals who led the army became more and more wrong, and they didn't even see a figure along the way, although Suzhou suffered several major wars, but how is it also the land of fish and rice, it is impossible to be desolate to this point.Mudu Town is the last checkpoint of Suzhou City, surrounded by high ground on all sides, only in the middle is a flat terrain, with the same shape as a washbasin.At this time, the sky was already slightly bright, and suddenly there was a rumbling drum sound on all sides, like thunder on the horizon, and the sound was sometimes dull and sometimes intense.After the drums fell, a little bit of fire lit up in the sky, like a fire dragon connected from end to end, surrounding more than 20,000 people of the Taiping Army.Qiao Zhiqing squinted his eyes and sneered at the Taiping army in the encirclement like headless flies, and suddenly felt infinite emotion in his heart, in the church of Joseph Needham in Anqing Mansion, Qiao Zhiqing had secretly sworn that he would be the strongest lion on the grassland, and now he has done it.The more than 20,000 people of the Taiping army were the elite of the Changzhou defenders, and they quickly calmed down from the panic, quickly assembled the soldiers equipped with foreign guns, and rushed into a dense formation towards the commanding heights on all sides."
Open fire.""
Open fire" "Qiao Zhiqing's command echoed back and forth in the night sky before dawn."
Boom, boom, boom."
The sound of cannons rang out from all sides at the same time, and the cannonballs smashed towards the Taiping army like hail, and the bewitching flames rose in the Taiping army, like a blooming peony.The Taiping army was suddenly plunged into a sea of fire, only frightened shouts and screams remained, and the newly formed formation was in chaos again, scurrying around to find cover and hide."
Don't mess up, don't mess up."
The generals of the Taiping army rode their horses and roared their men from time to time with leather whips, but the roar was like the buzzing of mosquitoes, and was soon drowned out by the sound of cannons.Qiao Zhiqing gathered all the artillery that could be used in Suzhou City this time, there were as many as 250 guns, and more than 5,000 rounds of ammunition were allocated.After half an hour of shelling, the battlefield was in shambles, with stumps and broken arms, dead wood and charred corpses, and smoke and dust covering the battlefield like a thick fog."
Qiao Zhiqing, I will grass your ancestor."
The generals of the Taiping Army had long heard of Qiao Zhiqing's name, and this time they finally saw how powerful he was.The general, who was wounded by a cannonball, covered the bleeding wound on his right arm, and roared into the sky
