Most of the Han army's flag soldiers and battalions ran towards the west city, and a small number were surrounded by the Taiping Army because they did not have time to escape. The number of people was more than a dozen, and the number of people was only two or three. These people fought on their own and could not gather together at all. Faced with the Taiping Army whose troops and morale were far superior to theirs, some were flag soldiers and battalions chose to give up resistance, while others would rather die than surrender.
Several flag soldiers burst out with amazing resistance. Relying on their ability to learn from life and death, the Taiping Army that surrounded them was unable to resolve the battle. However, as time passed, the resistance of these people was just a small wave in the big wave, and could not change the final outcome at all. All they could do was to pull two more backs before they died.
Some of the surrendered flag soldiers and battalions were killed by the Taiping Army, and some were detained by the teams that arrived later. The number of people was added together, with more than 40 people.
After most of the flag soldiers and battalions came to the west city, Zhou Shixiang immediately ordered Ge Zheng and other troops to speed up to the west city, so that these Qing troops could not escape from the city no matter what. At this time, he had no more troops. Except for the few personal guards and a few new recruits, all the other soldiers who could use were sent up. In order to resolve the battle as soon as possible and stabilize the situation in the city, Zhou Shixiang asked Chen Mo to lead dozens of old and weak dead soldiers under his command to join the battle. After Chen Mo received the order, he immediately shouted to take people up, saying that this time, he could not be demoted by Qianhu, and even if he died, he would be a good example.
The strong man Chen Mo made a big mistake in Xinxing, and was almost cut off his head by Zhou Shixiang. Now he is determined to make meritorious contributions. However, the dozens of so-called "dead soldiers" under his command have no combat power and have never experienced any fighting. From the beginning, Zhou Shixiang has never invested any resources in this team of death soldiers, nor has he trained them. Therefore, after these prisoners in Deqing's cell hurriedly picked up the Qing army's weapons and joined the battle, not only did they not make Chen Mo's face shine, but instead caused trouble to the various units that were chasing the Qing army. In the words of later generations, they dragged back.
Seeing this, Zhou Shixiang could only let Chen Mo's men retreat and take charge of guarding the east gate, and then focused on the recruits. In addition to following up in the city to pick up weapons and cut off the heads, there were four teams of full recruits who were not sent up. However, these recruits were just as useless as the old and weak dead soldiers. It was OK to let them wave their flags and shout, but it was useless to really go into battle to kill the enemy and fight the Qing soldiers to fight to the death.
Zhou Shixiang wanted to let these new recruits familiarize themselves with the soldiers, adapt to the cruelty of the battle, and be responsible for some logistics chores, hone the character of these new recruits in the continuous battle, and then add them to the shortage of soldiers and use them as reserve soldiers. They would not be allowed to send them to the battlefield unless they had to lose a lot of troops. After all, the Taiping Camp has only only 2,000 new recruits in the company. The road to the south to Xiangshan is still long, and there are still many battles to go through, and it is necessary to avoid loss of vain.
But now the Qing army in Gaoyao City has collapsed. Zhou Shixiang hopes to end the battle as soon as possible so as not to have too many nights and dreams and create troubles. Therefore, he wants these recruits to go up so that they can become the last straw that will break the camels. Gaoyao County is only a few dozen miles away from Zhaoqing Prefecture City. After the city is captured, there is not much time for the front camp to rest. Moreover, the city has to be collected and grain and grass are exported to the back camp, so every minute and every second is crucial to the Taiping camp. The appearance of the Han army flag, which was not in the intelligence, made Zhou Shixiang dare not drag the war down. God knows whether there are other Qing troops nearby. If there is another Han army flag, it is hard to say who will win and lose. Today's battle was caught off guard against the Qing army, and why is it not the case for the Taiping camp?
After the military order was passed, even though they knew that the Qing army had been defeated, the new recruits who had only joined the Taiping Camp for less than half a month were hesitant and dared not go.
"Those who do not follow the military order will die!"
Seeing that the recruits did not dare to kill the enemy, the general flags and small flags led the team began to intimidate without saying a word, and shouted fiercely at the terrified recruits: "Those who dare not enter will be killed!"
"Those who do not follow the military order will die! Those who do not advance will be killed, and those who retreat will be killed!"
Under the intimidation of the officers, the recruits had to bite the bullet and drive into the city in groups.

After running to Xicheng with a horse running wildly towards Guoqing, he found that there was no Ming army here. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then he was confused and hesitated for a moment and stopped. He did not rush to leave the city. He was preparing to wait for the subsequent escaped subordinates to come and gather some together, so as not to explain it if he went back in shame.
After waiting for a while, a group of flag soldiers and camp soldiers ran over with tears and wolves. There were less than a hundred people, and there was no Ming army chasing behind them. After a glance at Guoqing, he saw that there were only dozens of flag soldiers inside, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden slump. He knew it was not good. It seemed that most of his subordinates were caught up by the Ming army, and 80% of them had no chance to escape.
"Sir, let's go!"
The personal soldier leader whispered to Xiang Guoqing not to wait any longer. He sighed, nodded slightly and wanted to take the horse out of the city. However, as soon as the whip was whipped, a large group of Ming soldiers in black appeared on both sides of the empty city gate.
The sudden appearance of the Ming army made Xiang Guoqing stalk and blocked his cavalry. The Ming army was coming in full force. They were about to block the city gate. Xiang Guoqing subconsciously rushed forward: "Run, run!"
The personal soldiers did not need the reminder of the leader, and they knew that they would run away immediately. The black-clad Ming army had far more strength than them. If they did not rush out in front of the other party, they would never think of leaving the city again.

I was depressed and tried hard to get more than ten thousand words, but I couldn't find it. Can five thousand words work? I talked to the editor and I might arrange it on Friday. Alas, I have never written this book until now, and I haven't read it. So I can't get good recommendations from the Internet and websites with false results, so I can't get the number of recommendations given by the Internet and websites, so I have a poor collection. Of course, maybe it's because I didn't write well enough to attract readers' attention and cannot keep readers.
If the results are really good, it will inevitably be complained like "The Evil Slave" and "The Wolf Rider of the Ming Dynasty", and the writing was forced to be enforced and sealed, which made all the hard work go to waste.
I am a Han Chinese, and I only create novels that belong to Han Chinese. No matter what kind of thoughts I express in my novels and how ruthless and cruel the descriptions are, I always put the interests of the Han Chinese at the highest level. The supremacy of the Han Chinese is the driving force and thoughts for my writing. No matter what kind of blow I suffer, I will not change this. Otherwise, I could write other websites of buying and breaking articles before the Ming, Qing and Yuan dynasties, without involving ethnic or ethnic issues. In that case, there will definitely be seven or eight thousand yuan a month. This income in my hometown will definitely make my family live a worry-free life. Unfortunately, as long as I cannot starve to death, I am just a stubborn person. If you don’t let me write novels of Han Chinese, I will not write them.
Keep it up slowly, there will always be rewards when persisting. As long as the man is not forced or entrusts the book, I will continue to write it until the book is completed to make up for the regrets of "The Evil Slave" and "The Wolf Rider of the Ming Dynasty".
It is not a bad thing for me to list on the shelves. If you have less collections, you will have less. No matter how small it is, I think there will always be readers willing to subscribe to my works. In this way, you will finally have some income. Otherwise, after writing for so long, you will have no other income except for the money you rewarded by readers. I think it is also disappointing (mainly because my wife is disheartened and often scolds me for 0.0)
