The front Guoan advanced fiercely, and kept playing triumphant songs to advance towards Liuzhou. The Taiping Army's improper response and loss of troops and land naturally led to high morale and strong fighting spirit in the Qing army. The surrendered soldiers who were recognized by Shao Jiu as having a weak fighting spirit and were in chaos and sluggish in the army were also determined to be inferior to the Qing army under the accord of a series of victories of the Qing army, and the Ming Dynasty still had to finish it, so they had the idea of ​​making contributions to the new master. If they wanted to make contributions, they naturally had to submit a letter to the Qing army. This is why the surrendered troops were the ones who suffered the most casualties in the attack on Xiaobeishan, and the surrendered troops still worked for the Qing army, because they saw that the Taiping Army was surrounded by the Qing army, rather than the Taiping Army surrounding the Qing army.

During this process, Xing Guoan also showed the means of qualified generals. His efforts to appease the surrendered army, especially the generals in the surrendered army, were definitely not weaker than Zhou Shixiang.

Money, official position, women, territory, and everything that can stimulate people's life. Nowadays, ordinary soldiers are almost no different from cannon fodder in the eyes of generals. Shi Guoan spent a lot of money, and the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were about to be captured and killed, and they marched all the way and continued to win. There is no reason for the surrendered generals not to work hard. As long as the direct descendants are there, the soldiers below will not cause any trouble. If the people are beaten, they will be able to pull them away. Then, it will be difficult to find two-legged toads in this world, but it is easy to find two-legged toads in this world.

Everyone in surrendered generals worked hard, and the direct line of Xing Guoan was even less out of weakness. The Taiping Army stole their wealth and made all their savings over the years was wasted. Not to mention that they had soldiers under their command, they would have changed to ordinary people, and no one was too angry to grit their teeth.

Just like the template for the Taiping Army to make a fortune, the surrendered troops under the command of Shi Guoan re-take the path of surrendering to the Taiping Army to the Qing army, and their behavior was even more evil and more cruel, not at all weaker than Li Chengdong, Jin Shengheng, Wang Deren and others back then.

The Qing army advanced in a large-scale advance, and the Taiping Army lost its territory step by step. In the Taiping Army, some surrendered officials and generals also made erroneous judgments about the situation. Many people have begun to prepare for a way out and how to clear themselves of the excuse of "returning to the thief" to rebel.

A few days later, Shao Jiugong was unable to rest in Liuzhou City. He was worried that he could not defend Liuzhou, which would mean that the general's full deployment and all efforts in Guangxi were wasted. If Guangxi was reoccupied by the Qing army and the Taiping army that attacked Hunan would be trapped in a Jedi. Under the attack of the Qing army of the two lakes, the Qing army of Guizhou, and the Qing army of Guangxi, the general would definitely not be able to turn the tables. Therefore, Guangxi must not be lost, and Liuzhou must not be lost!

In order not to let the most terrible situation happen, Shao Jiugong did his best to mobilize the troops he could to station in Liuzhou, and also ordered the navy to transport a large amount of food and grass to Liuzhou. He also ordered the wolf soldiers who had just formed in Nanning and Xunzhou and had not yet conducted many trainings to Liuzhou.

After the Good Online Guoan broke into Liuzhou, it was blocked by Xiaobeishan for more than ten days, and the soldiers were damaged and the generals were no longer the attack of the previous few days. This made Shaojiu Public Security be relieved, and also made the surrendered officials and generals who had strange thoughts re-examine and wait for subsequent war changes. If the Line Guoan could break through Xiaobeishan and take Liuzhou City, the previous preparations would naturally be useful. If the Line Guoan failed, the previous preparations would have to be wiped out immediately. Compared with the Qing soldiers' swords, the Taiping Army's sword handle was also very hard.

Every time Xiaobeishan sent military information, Shao Jiugong had to carefully examine it. He ordered Wu Mazi not to exaggerate the number of casualties in the Qing army, so that he could peek at the real casualties in the line.

The successive victories of Xiaobeishan induced the strong fighting spirit of the Liuzhou defenders. Some generals asked Shao Jiugong for battle. They all said that the Qing army came from afar and had been in trouble for many days. They must have been extremely tired. At this moment, the entire army was about to attack and hurt the other side severely, thus ending the war.

It is true that Shao Jiugong is a man of being serious, but it does not mean that he does not have the courage. He was able to fight from Jiangxi to Guangdong with his brothers from Kong Guozhi all the way to Guangdong because of his man of justice, but his murderous spirit. Otherwise, he would not have lived until now.

After the Jiangxi cousin, the governor of Guangxi, who was a cousin of Jiangxi, combined with the information obtained from the prisoners, made a judgment that he thought was quite accurate, that is, when the attack failed for several days and the loss of troops and generals, the Ministry of State Security of the Line was extremely weak and in a dilemma. Most of the surrendered troops of the Ming Dynasty in its army were unwilling to be consumed as cannon fodder. If the Liuzhou defenders went out of the city to attack, even if they could not seriously damage the Ministry of State Security of the Line, they should be forced to retreat to Qingyuan. In this way, the contact between Liuzhou and Guilin could be restored. Shao Jiugong always wanted to ask the free Zhao Ziqiang, if you still have me as the governor in your eyes.

On the city tower, Shao Jiugong had grown a lot of beard in the past six months. He looked at the direction of Xiaobei Mountain and listened to the sound of cannons coming from over there, and sneered. Xing Guoan really did not give up until the Yellow River, and did not cry without seeing the coffin. The fortifications of Xiaobei Mountain were extremely strong. He wanted to take down at least ten thousand casualties. He could eat the price of this casualty? He had been attacking for more than ten days, but could he not see that he had no ability to take down Xiaobei Mountain at all? Telling that 10,000 steps back, what could you do if Xing Guoan took down Xiaobei Mountain? Do you think you can still take down Liuzhou?

The past half a month has made Shao Jiugong feel very happy.

"Reported to Master Futai, Commander Niu reported that the Qing army drove a large number of people to attack Xiaobei Mountain. Our army consumed too much medicine. Commander Niu asked Master Futai to transfer another batch of medicine."

"Driving the people to attack?"

Shao Jiugong shook his head and disagreed with the stupid behavior of Guoan in the Xing. What other benefits can the Qing army do besides making the Han people in Guangxi hate them even more? Could it be that Guoan in the Xing thought that those unarmed people could take down Xiaobeishan for them? However, the problem that the Xiaobeishan defenders were consumed too much by cannon fodder must be faced with the Qing army driving cannon fodder up. The defenders could not fire a single shot or shoot a single shot. If this is the case, how can this position be defended?

"Go and transfer another batch of medicines from the Fanku to Xiaobei Mountain. In addition, ask Wu Mazi to report the casualties."

Shao Jiugong ordered that Xiaobeishan is very important to Liuzhou. The defenders can be defeated, but they cannot be defeated because of insufficient supplies.

Wang Youxi, the deputy general in charge of military supplies, came forward and said with a bitter look when he heard this, "Sir, there is no medicine in the vassal treasury."

"No medicine?"

Shao Jiugong was shocked.

The Taiping Army did not seize much gunpowder when it captured Guangxi, because most of the gunpowder of the Qing army in Guangxi was taken away by the Han army under the Kuomintang army in the front. Except for a very few Han troops, the remaining Qing army left behind were cavalry and battalions, and there was no firearm at all. Naturally, there was no gunpowder for the Taiping Army to seize. Therefore, except for a small part of the medicine used by the Taiping Army in Guangxi and Hunan, the rest were brought from Guangdong in the early stage. After a series of battles, the consumption of medicine was naturally astronomical.

Although a new military factory specializing in the production of gunpowder was built in Guangdong, the factory was newly built and the amount of medicine produced was limited. In order to supply medicines for the front line, under the auspices of Duke Xiang of Song, the Guangdong Provincial Government Office and the Folang people in Macau purchased a large amount of money, and also purchased a batch from the Zheng family of Jinxia, ​​which ensured the supply of medicines for the front line. However, because the Taiping Army was progressing too fast and the front line was too long, it was difficult to transport materials from the rear to the front line. In Liuzhou, the fastest batch of medicines would be delivered six days later.

Shao Jiugong had a headache. The reason why Xiaobeishan defense line was able to kill and injure the Qing army in large quantities was because of the circular fortifications built on the mountain, but the fortifications were dead. In the end, killing and injuring the enemy soldiers was due to the powerful firearm advantage of the Taiping Army on Xiaobeishan. Now Xiaobeishan has exhausted all her medicines, but the vassal treasury has no medicine to send to supplement, which makes the soldiers on the mountain kill the enemy.

Deputy General Wang Youxi suggested that some medicine be transferred from the other two brigades of the Fourth Town immediately and send it to the emergency, and another reinforcement army was transferred to rush. After losing the advantage of firearms, the A Brigade on the mountain could only fight with the Qing army in hand, so the casualties would definitely be huge.

Shao Jiugong immediately adopted this suggestion and ordered a brigade from the tenth town to rush to Xiaobeishan to reinforce the fourth town, and also asked the navy to find a way to collect some medicine to send it to Xiaobeishan.

When Liuzhou was trying to find ways to supplement the shortage of medicine, on Xiaobei Mountain, the A Brigade of the Fourth Town and the Cannon Town soldiers were already fighting with the Qing army rushing up.

At the forefront were the death-death men who drank blood wine and were wearing iron armor. They were either elite Han army or guards of surrendered generals. Everyone received a grand reward in advance and promised a generous reward after the war. With the stimulation of the heavy reward and the encouragement of most of the Ming army's positions being broken through, the Qing army everyone took the lead, stepped on the bodies of men and women, and stepped on the torso of their own comrades, climbing up the slope in groups.

Answering the question of the book friends in the book review area about the cannon fodder removal. The plot of cannon fodder and the bones may have written in some details that violate the authenticity of the cannon fodder, which is slightly exaggerated, but it is generally realistic and based on the references of countless barbarian specific war examples over the past thousand years.

For thousands of years, I have never heard of cannon fodder resisting. In other words, for thousands of years, there has never been a description of the deeds of the barbarians who were driven away by the barbarians and attacked their own troops in history books.

If so, please ask the book friend to point out in the book review that Gutou would also think about the so-called war examples of cannon fodder rebelling against oneself. In the process of searching for historical materials, Gutou saw only thousands of Han people fighting to death to attack their own troops. Once or twice, these people were willing to become accomplices of the barbarians.
