The animal world of the head of the village

Chapter 446 Shocking the Taiping Army

Luo Hongfan quickly finished writing the two letters, because they were written according to Huang Xiaohu's request, so Huang Xiaohu only listened to his dictation, and then decided to immediately arrange for Guo Yi to be responsible for delivering them.

Guo Yi led people to deliver the letters, and would buy a batch of materials casually, so Huang Xiaohu told him to be careful along the way, and to send letters by flying pigeons in case of emergency, and notify Qingyuan City as soon as possible.

After Guo Yi left, Huang Xiaohu put his focus on the government affairs in Qingyuan City, and also reached an agreement with Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan. It will make them work too hard.

One night, Huang Xiaohu had nothing to do in the mansion, so he asked Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan to chat.

Zhao Yali said to Huang Xiaohu: "Qingyuan City is really big, was it considered a big city in the Qing Dynasty?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "According to Guo Yi, it should be regarded as a big city. Although it is not as large as Tianjing and Beijing, it is not too different."

Zhang Yalan said: "But if we leave here and return to our own world, what will happen to the people here? They will definitely be massacred by the officers and soldiers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or the Qing Dynasty."

Zhao Yali also said: "Yes, I remember that in history, the Qing Dynasty did adopt a policy of massacres towards the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom itself also liked to engage in massacres. If we leave, the people of the Dragon Society will probably have only a dead end."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Didn't you say you want to leave here as soon as possible? Why did you suddenly bring up this topic?"

Zhao Yali said: "Huzi, what is your plan? Don't you really care about the people of the Dragon Society?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "Actually, I have also considered this issue. I definitely don't want to see them slaughtered after we leave, so I want to do something, even if it is to change history."

Zhang Yalan said: "If we change history, will it affect us?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "It doesn't matter that much, we have to do some things. As you said, we have established the Shenlonghui, and now we have several cities. After we leave, they must not be the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or The opponents of the Qing Dynasty must end badly, so I definitely can't let this happen."

Zhao Yali asked: "Then what are you going to do?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "It's actually very simple, just take one step at a time. And we haven't found the Longfengyu Ganoderma lucidum yet. Even if we find it, we may not be able to enter the Dragon Wall, so I don't know whether I can leave here or not." .”

Zhang Yalan said: "Just be prepared with both hands. If you can't leave here, then change history and overthrow the Qing Dynasty directly. Anyway, the end of the Qing Dynasty was always bullied by other countries."

Zhao Yali said: "If we develop on our own, it doesn't matter whether we go back or not. Anyway, many things are unknown, and only the present life is real. Huzi, I support you, just destroy the Qing Dynasty. "

Huang Xiaohu said with a smile: "You think the Qing Dynasty can be destroyed if it is destroyed? The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has so much influence, and there were many soldiers and generals in its heyday, but it didn't destroy the Qing Dynasty. Can we do it?"

Zhao Yali said: "We are modern people, and you and Ji Wu basically belong to the heavenly soldiers and generals. With you two leading, the Shenlong Society will definitely have a better future than the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom."

Zhang Yalan said: "If it doesn't work, we should develop technology and manufacture modern weapons earlier, wouldn't that be enough?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "I also want modern weapons, but now we don't even have a place to make steel, and the manufacture of firearms is very backward. How can we get modern weapons?"

Zhao Yali said: "It's really impossible to go abroad to buy, and then learn technology from abroad. At this time, it seems that Britain is the most powerful?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "Let's see, anyway, there is still time, I also consider going to foreign countries to get some technology back, but first I need to go to a place near the sea, so that ships can arrive, and we can get in touch with foreigners Bar."

Zhang Yalan said: "Shanghai, just conquer Shanghai."

Huang Xiaohu said: "I know that too, but it's still far away from Shanghai, and it's not that easy to get there."

Zhao Yali said: "Wow, it's quite exciting to think about it. If we can conquer Shanghai, will it be up to us to decide how to plan and develop Shanghai?"

Huang Xiaohu asked, "How do you plan for development?"

Zhao Yali said: "I'll talk about it after you type it down. I'm sure I have my own ideas."

Huang Xiaohu saw that in the eyes of Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan, taking down a city seemed as easy as playing a game, so he deliberately said, "Do you know how many people died when they took down Qingyuan City?"

Zhao Yali asked: "How many casualties?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "About 2 people, and these are the casualties of soldiers."

Zhao Yali stopped talking, Zhang Yalan said: "Aren't there casualties in all wars?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "So fighting will definitely destroy many families."

Zhao Yali said: "But will they survive if they don't fight?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "It's hard to say in troubled times. We don't fight, they have to fight with the imperial court, and if the imperial court takes down Qingyuan City, the number of casualties may not be the same."

Zhang Yalan said: "If the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty captured Qingyuan City, they would definitely massacre the civilians. The Taiping Army who surrendered may only have a dead end."

Zhao Yali said: "Speaking of this, I suddenly feel that our previous life was really too happy, at least we don't have to worry about fighting."

Huang Xiaohu said: "There are many things that can't be solved. I just want to tell you that taking down Shanghai is not as easy as you imagined. Don't think too much about it."

Zhao Yali said: "Let's take it slowly. I hope that the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will stop making things difficult for us. Otherwise, we will fight the Qing army and the Taiping army. We will be the hardest ones then."

Huang Xiaohu said: "Actually, if they take the initiative to attack us, they must be the ones who regret it. If the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is willing to join forces with us now, perhaps they will not fail in the end."

Zhang Yalan said: "Don't we end up fighting the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom? If the Qing Dynasty is overthrown by us, we will share the world with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom? That would be tantamount to splitting China."

Zhao Yali said: "Yes, although changing history is not a problem, but if we really split our country, the problem will be big."

Huang Xiaohu said: "If we get to that point, if we don't make a move, the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will definitely not let it go. Don't worry, there must be only one winner in the end."

After chatting with Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan about future topics for a while, Huang Xiaohu hugged them and fell asleep together, it was a sweet and unforgettable night.

After Guo Yi went out for two weeks, Fei Ge finally came back and informed Huang Xiaohu that one of the letters had been delivered to the cronies of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, and the next step was to wait for the news.

Another seven days later, Guo Yi came back with a pigeon to send a letter. It turned out that Hong Xiuquan's confidant replied to Huang Xiaohu on behalf of the king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

When Huang Xiaohu received this letter, he knew that the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan still didn't take Shenlonghui seriously, so he discussed with Luo Hongfan that it was time to teach the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom a lesson.

It was discussed at the beginning, if the heavenly king Hong Xiuquan did not agree to hand over the treasure of Xilong Mountain, then the Shenlong Society would attack the two cities of Fuxi and Zhangmu.Now Hong Xiuquan also refused, so Huang Xiaohu decided to do what he said, and prepared to send troops to attack Fuxi and Zhangmu.

Both Fuxi and Zhangmu are small cities, especially Zhangmu. The defenders are estimated to be about [-] people, so Huang Xiaohu asked Ji Wu to lead [-] soldiers to attack Zhangmu first.

After discussing with Huang Xiaohu, Luo Hongfan decided to take down Zhangmu. He just took away all the equipment and food from the Taiping Army and didn't need to occupy the city, so Huang Xiaohu also made this request to Ji Wu.

Ji Wu had experience in attacking the city several times, so he should have full confidence in leading [-] troops to attack Zhangmu Town this time. That's why Huang Xiaohu felt confident and boldly arranged for Ji Wu to go out.

Sure enough, as Huang Xiaohu expected, after Ji Wu led [-] soldiers and horses to set off, he arrived in Zhangmu in three days, and then captured the small town of Zhangmu in one day. It took four days to return, and the task was successfully completed in nine days.

When Ji Wu captured Zhangmu, he actually captured more than 1000 surrendered soldiers, and he lost only a few hundred people. In addition, he emptied Zhangmu's granary and various warehouses, so the common people in Zhangmu could only flee to Fuxi or Qingyuan , so Zhangmu suddenly became almost an empty city.

Qingyuan City accepted many refugees, and also deliberately issued some propaganda notices to Fuxi, even blatantly claiming that it would attack Fuxi City.

Fuxi City is only two days away from Qingyuan City. According to the distance, Zhangmu is farther away, while Fuxi is closer, but Huang Xiaohu deliberately hit Zhangmu first, and then frightened Fuxi. The effect seems to be very obvious.

According to the news obtained by the spies, the people in Fuxi City are in panic, the common people are ready to evacuate at any time, and even the defenders are beginning to waver.

However, new information shows that a Taiping army has arrived at Fuxi, with a number of about [-] people. They should be reinforcements sent by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the leading general is also a strong general. That is Chen Yucheng, a rookie general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. .

Huang Xiaohu knew that after Chen Yucheng came to Fuxi, he didn't want to hurt his life, so he didn't send troops to attack Fuxi immediately, but asked someone to send a letter to Chen Yucheng, explaining some actual situations, for example, the Shenlong Society only asked the king of heaven, Hong Xiuquan Handing over the treasures of Xilong Mountain was not because he really wanted to be an enemy of the Taiping Army.

But Chen Yucheng didn't seem to give Huang Xiaohu any face at all, not only retaliated sharply to Huang Xiaohu, but also issued a letter of war, inviting Huang Xiaohu to fight to the death.
