Anti-Qing: Starting from the Jintian Uprising

Chapter 30 Li Yi: Line up, line up!
Of course, it is normal to have fire consumption.

But the normal fire consumption is only one or two points at most.

This is something that is difficult to avoid.

But if someone collects 30% or even 50% of the fire consumption silver, that would not be normal.

It's definitely corrupt officials doing whatever they want!

There is no doubt about this!

Li Yi's expression changed when he heard this.

"Ye Zhisheng, immediately take your men to carry the recast silver cakes to the front door of Li's mansion, and then pass on my military order to summon all the troops to assemble outside Li's mansion."

“Give me money!!”

Li Yi recast the silver winter melon with the intention of rewarding the entire army.

Now that we are about to attack Xunzhou, this reward of silver can be regarded as a reward before the departure.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhisheng clasped his fists outside the study, accepted the order, and then turned around to do it.

Li Yi also took Wang An, Chen Chengrong and the others out of the Li Mansion.

Soon, they arrived at the gate of Li's mansion.

On the steps in front of the door, there was a large box, filled with white, still steaming silver cakes that had just been cast.

Not long after, Li Yi's soldiers arrived outside Li's mansion.

Li Yi shouted at the top of his voice.

"Everyone, gather and line up according to your respective formations."

Soon, his soldiers were in formation.

Li Yi waved his hand and started distributing money immediately.

He asked the soldiers under him to line up according to the organization and take turns to come forward to receive the money, and he personally handed the silver cakes to the soldiers.

After receiving the money, all the soldiers had sincere smiles on their faces.

"Thank you for the reward, Commander. I am willing to die for you!"

I don’t know who started it, but after receiving the money, everyone would express their loyalty to Li Yi with a solemn expression.

The reason for this is very simple.

What is the human heart?

Money is people’s heart!

It was hard for everyone not to identify with Li Yi, the brigade commander who personally gave them money.

After distributing the money, Li Yi keenly noticed that the morale of the army had obviously increased significantly.

Seeing this, Li Yi started talking about business.

"The commander of this brigade has just received a military report that the Qing demon's Guizhou General Zhou Fengqi has mobilized all the troops in Xunzhou and is heading north to attack Jintian."

"Kinda is in danger!"

"Therefore, in order to relieve the predicament of Jintian, our brigade commander has decided to lead the entire army to attack Xunzhou directly, and take advantage of the fact that Xunzhou's troops are empty to capture Xunzhou."

"In order to save Zhao from Wei, and to relieve the predicament of Jintian!"

"Commendants, are you willing to come with me? To build a great cause with me?"

While speaking, Li Yi scanned the entire audience with a look of awe-inspiring majesty.

The next moment, the person Li Yi had arranged in advance in the crowd shouted.

"Kill the Qing monsters, attack Xunzhou, make great achievements, and be a mighty commander!"

The next moment, the crowd seemed to be ignited, and the shouts shook the earth.

"Kill the Qing monsters, attack Xunzhou, make great achievements, and be a mighty commander!"

"Kill the Qing monsters, attack Xunzhou, make great achievements, and be a mighty commander!"

After all, they had just lined up to receive the reward from Li Yi, so naturally no one would disobey orders at this time.

Seeing this, Li Yi raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

After everyone quieted down, Li Yi continued.

"This time, what Li gave to everyone is just an appetizer."

"I, Li Yi, hereby promise that after the army captures Xunzhou, all the soldiers will be rewarded handsomely." "Now, pass on my military order, the whole army will march out, the target is Xunzhou!"

……

As time passed, Guizhou Zhenyuan General Zhou Fengqi and Qingjiang Deputy General Yiktanbu had led their troops to the Xinxu area outside Jintian Village.

Caicun River is not far ahead!
After crossing Caicun River, you will reach Jintian Village.

Zhou Fengqi rode on horseback and looked at the battlefield.

On the front line, shouts of killing were deafening and the sound of gunfire was incessant. The Qing army was fighting against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regiment.

To be precise, it is the Church of God that is in retreat.

As the vanguard of the Qing army, Iktanbu commanded his troops and had broken through several formations of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom camp that had originally occupied Xinxu and attempted to resist the Qing army's offensive in Xinxu had been defeated and was now withdrawing from Xinxu in a panic, heading towards the other side of the Caicun River.

Iktambu rode his horse to kill the enemies. Wherever he passed, the God Worshipping regiments and camps fled, leaving their weapons and armor behind.

There were scattered weapons and flags all over the ground!

The defeated Taiping Heavenly Kingdom soldiers on the Caicun River Bridge had huddled together, completely blocking the narrow bridge and making it impossible to cross.

"Don't block the road! Don't block the road!"

"Mom Diulei, get out of the way! I'll kill anyone who gets in my way again!"

"..."

The groups of the God Worshipping Society even started fighting among themselves and hacked at each other with knives in order to compete for the road.

In the chaos, people were constantly pushed off the bridge and fell into the Caicun River, struggling in the water.

The Qing army chased to the bank of the Caicun River, stood on the river bank, and opened fire at the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom battalion that was huddled together on the bridge and struggling in the river.

Snapped!clap clap!clap clap clap!

Gunshots continued to ring out, and the banks of Caicun River were filled with smoke.

Under the attack of the Qing army, more and more people fell into the water, and the river water was gradually dyed red with blood...

Iktambu charged on horseback, sweeping his saber across, beheading a brigade commander of the God Worshipping Mission battalion, blood spurting out of the headless cavity.

Like a fountain, it sprays everywhere!
Several light cannons were carried up, and after being loaded, they were aimed at the narrow Caicun River Bridge and the fuses were lit.

boom! Boom boom!

A burst of artillery fire was heard.

Although the Green Camp soldiers were not allowed by the Qing government to be equipped with large-caliber artillery such as the Red Cannon, they still had a large number of small cannons such as the Tiger Crouching Cannon and the Mountain-Splitting Cannon.

A large amount of iron sand was sprayed out from the muzzle, and wherever it passed, there was blood and rain.

A large number of the defeated Taiping Heavenly Kingdom soldiers who were crowded on the Caicun River Bridge were swept away.

After a few shots, the Caicun River was piled with corpses, almost blocking the flow of the river.

Overall, the Qing army has the upper hand in the current battle situation.

The town flag of the Guizhou general was the elite of the Green Camp, and its combat effectiveness was far superior to that of the Xunzhou Association. However, the regiment camp of the God Worshipping Society thought that the town flag of the Guizhou general and the Xunzhou Association were of the same kind.

Therefore, Tuoda chose to fight the Qing army in the field instead of occupying Xinwei.

The result was that they had just fought with Zhou Fengqi's troops and suffered a great loss due to being caught off guard, and were defeated several times in a row.

Even the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's forward position in Xinwei on the right bank of the Caicun River was captured by the Qing army in a flash.

The God Worshipping Society had not yet officially revolted, and the Taiping Army had not yet established its reputation.

When facing the Taiping Army, the Qing army did not reach the point where "he who flees after encountering the enemy is the most courageous."

On the contrary, due to the natural suppression of officials over bandits, the Qing army had a considerable psychological advantage when facing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom militia.

Zhou Fengqi put down the telescope in his hand and gave instructions.

"It's getting late. Send a message to the army to immediately camp in Xinxu and rest."

"Send another order, have Iktanbu lead his troops across the river immediately to the left bank of Caicun River, seize the beach, set up camp, and prepare to meet the main army to cross the river tomorrow..."
