President Meng has received a message from Xuan Jianzhang."
President" Jie Gege gently shook President Meng's hand.Only Jie Gege dares to touch President Meng when President Meng is thinking about things.President Meng glanced at Jie Gege, a little displeased, however, he didn't have a seizure, and sighed, "What do you say now" Actually, at this time, it is no longer a question of whether Zuo Zongtang surrenders or not, but how the Chinese army will treat the Chu army."
I don't know, why aren't you happy" Jie Gege leaned over, blinked his bright beautiful eyes, and fluttered coquettishly.The corners of President Meng's mouth curled, and a smile flashed, "There's no way to take you, aren't I thinking about it, but, I guess I can't think of it, I don't know what will happen to Li Hongzhang, if Li Hongzhang dies, this beam will never be unraveled."
Because, I once declared to the public that Li Hongzhang was my teacher. ”"Otherwise, let the people below think about it themselves, and reply to know."
Gege covered his mouth and smiled, "Yongzheng Ye likes to reply like this the most." ”President Meng sweats, what do you do with me and Yongzheng, is he as good as me" Don't reply like this, it's quite pretentious, reply to let them handle it at their discretion, give power to Yi Xuan, don't give power to Xuan Jianzhang, things other than the military, Yi Liang has the final say. ”"Okay, though, will Master Xuan be unhappy" Jiegege blinked."
No, there's nothing to be unhappy about, if you let him fight, he will fight, and if you let him go, he will go.I believe in Yixuan's judgment of the situation, Yixuan is a kind of person who loves money like life, and also understands people's hearts best, money is actually not a bad thing, people who love money are usually very smart. ”President Meng smiled indifferently.Geger scoffed, "That doesn't seem like a good compliment. ”President Meng smiled: "It's a good compliment."
The Qing court was too corrupt and allowed officials to embezzle themselves, but in fact, if the management is good, many officials will be more motivated when they enter the system, and their salaries will be raised, which is much more rewarding than corruption. ”President Moe is telling the truth, in modern times, his favorite thing is to raise his salary.Princess Katrina Kafu meant to use more decisive means to directly let the army encircle and suppress Zuo Zongtang, but President Meng's meaning had already come out, so she didn't say what she thought in her heart anymore.Xuan Jianzhang directly showed the message replied by the president's secretariat to Yixuan.Yi Xuan smiled: "How dare you dare to say that Senior Xuan has the final say." ”Xuan Jianzhang said with a smile: "King Xuanjun doesn't have to be polite, the president lets you have the final say, you have the final say, I really don't know what to do now." ”"Prince Alcohol, what do you think" Yixuan turned his face and looked at Prince Alcohol Yiyun.Yi Xun sighed, "It seems that I can't stop fighting, I don't know if Shaoquan is dead or alive, who knows if he can survive at such an old age, and in addition, he also took advantage of this strength to catch Chu Jun off guard." ”Yixuan nodded and said: "Dashan, Prince Alcohol and I want to go together, Senior Commander Xuan, let my people cooperate with the army to attack and kill, there are no immortals in the war, they are all dead, and I happen to follow the Chinese army."
After this battle, the reunification of China should lay the ground, but Zuo Zongtang must not be let go. ”Xuan Jianzhang frowned, he naturally knew what Yixuan said, "It's not difficult to win, the difficult thing is that how not to let Zuo Zongtang escape Their numbers still have an advantage, and there are large horse teams, if you really want to flee desperately, it is difficult to stop." ”Yixuan nodded, "Let's take one step at a time, we really let Zuo Zongtang go, it's not what we think, just explain it to the president, it's too timid to do things, so you don't have to do anything." ”Xuan Jianzhang secretly said You are an old boy, you are ruthless enough, you want to let the big smoke army die, and you also want to catch Zuo Zongtang, sure enough, the traitors hate the Qing army more than the regular army.Xuan Jianzhang issued an attack order in accordance with Yixuan's intentions, and the attack of the First Field Division of the Chinese Army went very smoothly.The entire Chu army has lost most of its fighting spirit at this time, and many people actually want to surrender, but they were frightened by the news that Li Hongzhang was injured, knowing that the relationship between Li Hongzhang and President Meng was extraordinary, and many people were worried that the Hua army would kill them for the sake of face.The Chu army was caught off guard, and many fortifications were directly blown up, failing to form a strong counterattack.Subsequently, with the strong fire support of the 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army, the streets changed hands one after another.The various small units under Zuo Zongtang had to withdraw from their positions on the street and retreat backwards.Concentrate around Zuo Zongtang's Shuai Mansion.In the wee hours of the morning.The troops of the 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army had already pointed directly at Zuo Zongtang's marshal's mansion, and the Chu army suffered heavy losses, losing more than half of its troops.The morale of the entire Chu army fell to the bottom, and they were doing an instinctive death struggle."
Quick, don't defend, let the infantry hold it, let's quickly lead the cavalry to evacuate in two groups, you send two thousand people to go first, and I will chase you with eight thousand brigades."
Zuo Zongtang said to Liu Jintang.Liu Jintang sighed, looking at the dark weather, tonight, there was no moon at all, "It seems that this can only be the case, if I die, even if I repay the kindness of adults." ”"I understand."
Zuo Zongtang patted Liu Jintang on the shoulder."
If you do come down in the end, please try to save my family."
Liu Jintang sighed and said to Zuo Zongtang.Zuo Zongtang was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said: "What do you think of as someone If you want to surrender, you would have surrendered a long time ago, so why wait until this time to go." ”Liu Jintang said secretly, you are not forced to surrender early, there is no way, you will come to this point, the large force of the Chu army began to break through, and today, they are much more active and faster than the breakthrough a few nights ago.The three cavalry battalions of the 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army had already begun to cross the dividing line between Gansu and Shaanxi and enter the territory of Gansu.This is to prevent Zuo Zongtang from escaping, and at the same time, Xuan Jianzhang asked people to contact Dong Fuxiang, regardless of whether Dong Fuxiang started a war against Zuo Zongtang, at least Zuo Zongtang should be driven away.The First Field Division of the Chinese Army has its own cavalry regiment directly under it, which is generally not brought with it in peacetime, and is placed in the border between Mongolia and Beijing for training.A cavalry battalion opened the passage between Gansu and Shaanxi in one fell swoop.The other two cavalry battalions, under the orders of Xuan Jianzhang, went straight to Baoji, the western gateway of Xi'an.Zuo Zongtang's escape was a victory, but more than 1,000 people escaped, and the remaining 7,000 cavalry were beheaded by the artillery bombardment of the Chinese army, and then surrounded by the infantry of the Chinese army.The cavalry was cut to death by the infantry, which means that the First Field Division of the Chinese Army has this level of technology and tactics, and the Second Field Division of the Chinese Army and the Third Field Division of the Chinese Army may not be able to do it.Although there are only more than 500 officers left in the First Field Division of the Chinese Army in Siberia, these officers have not stopped fighting in the past four years, and all of them have rich experience, so that the combat effectiveness of the First Field Division of the Chinese Army has recovered very quickly, and the combat effectiveness of an army still depends on the grassroots officers and senior officers, as for the soldiers, Liu Jintang's more than 2,000 cavalry rushed out more than half of them after training quickly, mainly because Liu Jintang attacked decisively and fiercely enough, and he was the first to attack.
Although the danger was higher than that of Zuo Zongtang's brigade behind, the number of people who ran out was more.The two armies are combined, and there are still more than 2,000 cavalry, which is not weak, and in terms of number alone, a complete cavalry regiment of the Chinese army is also more than 2,000 people, which is about the same as the current number of cavalry of the Chu army, but technically speaking, the Chu army is still more powerful, and most of these people are veterans who have fought for more than ten years.Cavalry is not something that can be easily trained.The Mongols were willing to bow down to China, not because the Chinese army could kill the Mongols in the steppe, but because the economy of China was too strong, the power of unification was too strong, and the Chinese army had taken Siberia and surrounded the Mongols.Then President Moe achieved complete control over the Mongols by controlling the Mongol aristocracy."
Dashuai, there is Baoji in front.We finally got out. ”Liu Jintang sighed, the whole person was about to collapse from exhaustion, but he finally saved his life.No matter how strong the infantry of the Chinese army is, now that they are out of the range of Xi'an, there is no need to worry too much.Zuo Zongtang's face was dark, and his expression was depressed, at such an age, life and death were uncertain in the past few days, and the days of death could indeed kill him."
You can do it yourself, you don't have to ask me, anyway, how can you get to Qinghai, you can take everyone how to go."
Zuo Zongtang said decadently."
Yes, handsome" Liu Jintang nodded, and said to a few soldiers around him: "Order, quickly pass through Baoji and go to the center of Gansu, Dong Fuxiang is a person who misses the old and will not fight hard with us." ”"Yes," several of the soldiers agreed, and hurried to give the order.This cavalry, now like a group of people called Hanako, has no supplies at all, everyone is just a weapon and a horse, if you don't hurry to a densely populated place, it will be a problem to eat.The Bureau of Statistics has a liaison point in Gansu, and the sentinel cavalry of the Chinese army constantly sends back information about Zuo Zongtang's cavalry force of more than 2,000 people.Xuan Jianzhang So although he was in Xi'an City, he was able to know the dynamics of Zuo Zongtang's department.Xuan Jianzhang was very angry, let Zuo Zongtang's 10,000 cavalry escape more than 2,000 people, can he not be angry If it is the first field division of the old Chinese army, if it is not for so many excellent soldiers who died in Siberia, Xuan Jianzhang believes that even if the infantry intercepts the cavalry, it will not let Zuo Zongtang's department escape so many people, and if 500 people can escape, it will be up to the sky "What now" Xuan Jianzhang looked at Yixuan, because President Meng said that for decision-making matters, you have to listen to Yixuan.Yixuan frowned and shook his head, there are many people who escaped from Zuo Zongtang's department, and he is also in trouble.t1706231537:
