The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 247 Reversal of the Situation, the Battle of Xiangshui

In the end, after being rescued by the genius doctor Hua Tuo, Gao Qi was finally out of danger.

However, due to the seriousness of the injury, he still needs to rest for a while.

A few days later, the victory report officially came from the south.

That is, more than [-] people from Huang Zhong and Gao Xiang's subordinates have already gone south by surprise.

With lightning speed, he took the opportunity to seize the only pass from Guiyang County to Jiaozhou area - Yema Pass.

This is precisely from Jia Xu's handwriting.

Since Jia Xu proposed to send an army to Mu County to stop the Taiping Army from advancing.

It was already expected that because the entire Taiping army went north, the rear must be empty.

He took advantage of the opportunity to explain to Huang Zhong and Gao Xiang that once the Taiping Army was forced to retreat.

So he quietly led his army south and took the opportunity to capture Yema Pass.

You know, Yema Pass is the only passage between Guiyang County and Jiaozhou.

As long as Yema Pass is completely occupied, the Taiping Army can be firmly kept out of the pass and cannot be stored.

In this way, the safety of Jingzhou can be ensured, and there is no need to worry about the Taiping army invading again.

Moreover, if there is a need to attack the Taiping Army in the future, they can also attack directly from Yemaguan.

Sweep away the rule of the Taiping Army in the Lingnan area like a thunderbolt.

…………

Since Gao Qi's injury was quite serious this time, he needed to rest quietly for a period of time.

Therefore, Gao Qi also took the opportunity to appoint Yue Fei as the main general of the army in order not to make people hate the fighters.

Command the whole army to Changsha to support Zhou Yu's troops and resist the invading Chen Youliang's troops.

This time, due to Yue Fei's series of actions in Guiyang, he has already enjoyed military prestige in the army.

Therefore, Gao Qi believes that with Yue Fei's excellent command value of 101, he will be able to command the entire army.

And he himself slowly returned to Jiangling under the escort of personal guard generals Chen Dao, Dian Wei, and a group of personal guards.

Immediately after Yue Fei took over the command of the army, he immediately summoned the entire army.

Afterwards, the various ministries set off according to the order and quickly went to Changsha.

…………

In Changsha, Xiangshui defense line

It is only said that Zhou Yu's troops and Chen Youliang's army confronted each other across the Xiangshui River.

Similarly, the two armies also fought several water battles on the Xiang River.

However, although Zhou Yu is very good at water warfare, after all, his strength is only more than [-].

However, Chen Youliang's army was more than twice that of Zhou Yu's army.

In addition, Chen Youliang is also good at using troops, and he is quite proficient in water warfare.

Therefore, the two armies have not achieved any substantive results in the continuous fierce battle for several days.

Immediately, the two armies also set up their own defense lines on the opposite bank, confronted each other, and waited and watched the changes!

Two flowers, one on each side

Under Yuhang City
Let's just say that since the time when the Jingzhou Army wiped out Feng Yunshan's troops.

The Taiping Army, headed by the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, also fought fiercely with the Sui Army's Nursing Office and Sun Jian, the governor of Yuhang County.

With the continuous confrontation, the overall combat power of Taiping soldiers gradually began to rise.

Originally, the elite level of the Sui army was much higher than that of the Taiping sergeant at the beginning.

However, under the continuous fierce fighting, the Taiping Army became stronger and stronger.

This can be said to really prove the old saying 'The elite are all tempered in the war of blood and fire'.

At the end of the fierce battle between the two sides, the Taiping Army was not only several times stronger than the Sui Army in terms of strength.

Similarly, the combat effectiveness is almost equal to that of the Sui army, regardless of superiority or inferiority.

For a while, Lai Huer had no choice but to close the door and stick to it.

Let the Taiping army provoke and abuse like this, Lai Huer turned a deaf ear to it.

In the end, Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan was divided into four groups, namely Eastern King Yang Xiuqing, Northern King Wei Changhui, and Wing King Shi Dakai, plus himself.

Relying on their superior strength, they led the army to besiege Yuhang City from all sides.

In an instant, the situation took a turn for the worse, although Lai Huer led his troops to stand firm.

However, under the aggressive onslaught of the Taiping Army, Yuhang City was still crumbling.

In the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops, the tall Yuhang City looked like a drop in the ocean.

In the end, after holding on for more than half a month, the Sui army finally couldn't withstand the pressure.

Lai Huer, the general manager of the Jiangnan Xingjun Road, reluctantly gave up the long-held Yuhang line of defense and withdrew to the north of Yangzhou.

For a while, the Taiping Army happily entered Yuhang City under the vastness of cheering and cheering.

Similarly, Hong Xiuquan, like Feng Yunshan, began to implement the "Heavenly Land Mu System" in Yuhang.

For a time, the people in the territory all joined in and became the help of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

After resting for two days, Hong Xiuquan originally wanted to continue to march northward, trying to break through several counties in Yangzhou in one fell swoop, and then set his capital in Jinling to command the world.

Unfortunately, the world is impermanent, and plans can never keep up with changes!
Just as the Taiping Army was preparing to march, information from Jingzhou was passed on.

After reading it hastily, Hong Xiuquan couldn't help but gasped, and his expression became more and more nervous.

It turned out that this piece of information recorded how the Jingzhou army showed weakness to the enemy and then retreated.

Then stick to Mu County, in order to force the Taiping Army to change to the trail.

In the end, the [-] Taiping army was wiped out with the ambush strategy of blending water and fire.

The whereabouts of the Western King Xiao Chaogui are unknown, and the Southern King Feng Yunshan cannot bear the humiliation and commits suicide!

Seeing that Hong Xiuquan's expression became more and more unkind, Yang Xiuqing, the Eastern King of the ranks, went out and asked, "Heavenly King, what's in the information?"

Following Dongwang Yang Xiuqing's interrogation, the rest of the generals such as Wei Changhui, Shi Dakai and others showed no confusion.

Immediately afterwards, Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan slowly told the contents of the information one by one!

In an instant, there was an uproar in the mansion!
You must know that it was an army of [-], and it was wiped out by the Jingzhou army so easily.

Moreover, the Southern King Feng Yunshan, the number two figure in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, also committed suicide in this war!

It should be noted that the Taiping Army has just captured Yuhang County City, and it is the time when the morale of the army is strong.

Hong Xiuquan also planned to take advantage of this opportunity to continue to march northward in an attempt to occupy Yangzhou.

However, the annihilation of Feng Yunshan's one hundred thousand troops made Hong Xiuquan feel dignified.

You know, since Feng Yunshan is the No. [-] figure in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

That must be enjoying a lofty military prestige in the army.

However, now the [-] troops including Feng Yunshan are all destroyed.

When this news came out, it was conceivable that the blow to the entire army would be fatal.

And, the most important point, with Feng Yunshan's entire army wiped out.

It also led to the complete exposure of the western defense line to the front of the Jingzhou army.

If Hong Xiuquan continues to lead his army northward at this stage, the Lingnan area of ​​the rear base camp will be in danger of overturning.

…………

The Lai Nursing Department, which has retreated into Wu County's solid defense, is also stepping up its defense line.

In order to resist the onslaught of the Taiping Army.

"My lord, don't worry!"

"Wu Jun is the hometown of the last general, and the last general is quite famous here, and he will definitely be able to stop the Taiping army from attacking."

Immediately, Sun Jian, who was tall and dressed in military uniform, couldn't help but cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

Suddenly, the messenger galloped over and handed a battle report to Lai Huer.

After seeing it, Lai Hu'er couldn't help Fu Xu and burst out laughing!

It seems that all failures do not exist.
