Every living Taiping soldier insisted on resisting, even though they knew that they might not be alive to wait for reinforcements to arrive, even if they knew that they might never see their parents, wives and children, but they still chose to fight to the end Die or live For my father, my wife and children, I fought and fought Looking at the Taiping army that was encircled, and looking at the dense human heads all around, Qin Guocheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he gritted his teeth and rushed again, the Taiping army would definitely be defeated.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to order the final blow to be launched to completely shred the Taiping army.
He even ordered that no prisoners should be taken in this battle, and as for the thief Xiucai who made him no longer despise, he must divide the body of five horses, otherwise it will be difficult to vent his evil anger The more than 300 Shang soldiers who had been withdrawn for a short rest were ordered to assemble again, this time they would twist into a fist and smash through the simple and crude defensive circle of the Taiping army.
After the Qing army suddenly gave way to reveal the assembled cavalry, Zhou Shixiang was ready to die, he held the long knife tightly, took a deep breath, and roared hard: "Brothers, fight, fight" "Fight, fight" The living Taiping soldiers raised their weapons and shouted vigorously, and the Taiping soldiers who were injured and fell to the ground were also using the last bit of strength of their bodies to open their mouths and roar.
"Kill" More than 300 soldiers and cavalry once again crashed into the defensive circle of the Taiping army, the madness of the capital made them even more crazy, they no longer pity the loss of the war horse, and no longer care about their own casualties, they only have one thought in their eyes, that is, to kill, kill these southern barbarians who are more stinky than the stones in the pit The collective charge of more than 300 cavalry was huge, but looking at the sharp wood that had been stained red with blood, the war horse hesitated and timid.
The Qing soldiers on the horse were sensitive to the abnormality of the mount, either with their legs strangled violently, or directly stabbed at the mount with the sharp points of their boots.
The pain caused the horse to ignore the sharpened logs in front of him, and slammed into the front in a frenzy.
"Puff, puff" The horses that rushed up were instantly pierced by the long poles of the Taiping army, and the poor war horses hung on them and kept neighing and struggling.
The Qing soldiers on the horse were lucky to fall off their horses and were not pierced on the spot, but they were unlucky to be pierced by a long pole and men and horses on the spot, hanging in mid-air like a strip of meat.
Before many Qing soldiers let out a miserable cry on the ground, their backs were heavy, and the feeling of suffocation suddenly made them unable to speak, and before they could move, they were killed by the long knives of the Taiping army that pounced on them.
When the cavalry of the Shang family collided again, Zhou Shixiang stood in the first row, he stopped the kindness of his own soldiers to protect him behind, he wanted to stand in the first row, and blocked the attack of the Qing army head-on.
He wanted every one of his subordinates to know that he was with them A rushed war horse knocked the big cart frame back a few steps away, and the residual force of the big cart knocked Zhou Shixiang directly to the rear, at that moment, his body was so heavy that the whole person could no longer stand unsteadily, and staggered backwards, if it weren't for the two personal soldiers behind him, I'm afraid he would have fallen to the ground on his back.
At the same time as the cavalry attacked, the banner soldiers did not look at it, they either carried the cart together, or jumped on the cart frame to kill the Taiping army behind, relying on the advantage of numbers, the Taiping army fell into a bitter battle, several large carriages were moved away by the Qing soldiers, and the cavalry without obstacles immediately poured in from the gap.
With the swords in their hands, they kept shouting and slashing at the Taiping army, and some who were unwilling to bother directly relied on the strong momentum of their war horses to knock away one Taiping army after another who tried to resist one after another.
"Broken, broken" The cheers came from the mouths of the Qing army, and the Taiping army after being knocked through the gap in several places faced the Qing soldiers who were surging like a tide, they could not resist at all, and could only be forced to retreat.
But with every step back, they were desperately resisting the Qing soldiers in front, and none of them threw down their weapons and turned around.
The battle continued, countless heroic soldiers of the Taiping Army fell to the ground, and almost all of them subconsciously looked at the Xinhui City behind them, where their relatives were located.
Zhou Shixiang, who was supported by his own soldiers and took a few breaths, found that the defense line had been broken through a few places, and he was very anxious, and without making any stops, he waved his knife and rushed forward again.
"Ahh Some Qing soldiers found Zhou Shixiang, who was the commander-in-chief, and they excitedly wrestled with Zhou Shisuo, and the Zhou Shixiang soldiers who were eager to protect the lord hurriedly greeted him, and after a few slashes, the two soldiers fell to the ground.
The rest of the pro-soldiers did not retreat, they blocked the Qing soldiers who rushed up, and tried their best to protect Zhou Shixiang in the middle.
His subordinates were fighting to the death with the Qing soldiers, but he was protected in the middle, how could Zhou Shixiang stand it.
But he knew that now the attention of the Qing army was on him, and the eyes of the Taiping army were also on him, and at this critical time, he must not miss the slightest, so he gritted his teeth and let his soldiers protect him in the middle, only letting out a roar or two from time to time, so that his subordinates who were still fighting hard would know that he was still alive "That's the thief Xiucai, catch him, and divide the five horses" Zhou Shixiang, who was surrounded and protected by his own soldiers, undoubtedly became the most conspicuous person in the Taiping army, and also became the prey in the eyes of all Qing soldiers.
Dozens of Qing soldiers who rushed into the gap rushed towards Zhou Shixiang's location.
Seeing that the Qing army was crowded, and the whole dynasty was coming by itself, Zhou Shixiang frowned deeply, and retreated while fighting.
Qin Guocheng also noticed Zhou Shixiang, who was retreating, and with a finger of the horsewhip in his hand, he asked Goshha to capture the thief Xiucai who made him gnash his teeth alive for him, but at this time, the horn sounded from the southwest, accompanied by the shouting of thousands of people: "Kill the Tartars" The sound of the horn came suddenly, but the Qing army was in an uproar, and some soldiers forgot that there were still Taiping troops fighting for their lives in front of them and stood there stupidly, and some Qing soldiers who were forced to come up by their own soldiers shouted: "The reinforcements of the southern barbarians are coming, retreat, retreat quickly" Hearing someone shouting for the withdrawal of troops, Qin Guocheng was furious: "Damn, who dares to order the withdrawal of troops" was about to order not to retreat, as far as the eye could see, dozens of flags led countless Ming troops to kill this side, and the first banner was written "Linghai General Chen".
"Chen Qice" Zhou Shixiang didn't know Chen Qice, but Qin Guocheng did, seeing that Chen Qice, who had been standing still on the river for a long time, finally sent troops ashore, and came to aid the Taiping army at this juncture, Qin Guocheng was angry and didn't fight anywhere.
His legs shook because he was so angry.
"Brethren, reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming" "The brothers of the sailor have come to save us, the brother of the sailor has come to save us" In the Taiping army, there was an earth-shattering cheer.
"My lord, what should I do," Qin Guocheng's captain Goshha asked nervously.
"God is blind" Qin Guocheng scolded hatefully, the current situation no longer allows him to bite the Taiping army like revenge, his own soldiers and horses have been fighting with the Taiping army for several hours, and now they are even more mixed, if the Ming army on the river does not move, it will only take some effort to solve the remnants of the Taiping army, but now it is impossible not to withdraw.
Otherwise, if the Ming army on the river is allowed to join the battle array, the balance of victory will be tilted in favor of the Taiping army. oshow7 t1706231537:
