"Your family has lost the backbone of your family. What will happen to them in the future? Who will support your parents?"
"What will happen to your children in the future? Who will take care of them?"
"General Feng, please think carefully about the brothers around you, is it worth it?"
"We will definitely overthrow the Qing Dynasty. Don't doubt our strength."
"General Feng, I don't know if you have received the information. A fleet has arrived outside Taiping Mansion."
"I can tell you clearly that this fleet is the naval fleet of our Tenglong Army."
"You know about the Three Kingdoms Navy, right?"
"Want to know how they are doing now?"
"The French Cochinchina fleet has been completely wiped out for the second time, and their commander-in-chief Lisby surrendered!"
"Yes, they were destroyed by us for the second time. The fleet in front of them was also killed by us in Taipei. The former commander-in-chief must have been fed to sharks and turned into fish dung."
"Lao Maozi's Vladivostok fleet was also destroyed for the second time. Their commander-in-chief Bratislav surrendered. Both times were due to the credit of our Beiyang Navy. This time it was with the help of Taipei."
"You heard right, the Beiyang Navy is our fleet."
"The little Japanese's Yokosuka fleet was completely wiped out by two fleets of our army in the Bohai Sea. They did not let a single warship escape from the battlefield."
"Yokosuka Fleet Commander Higashino Heisaburo died in battle!"
"Now this fleet is heading south, and its target is you!"
Next Chen Hu also had a fireworks show.
It was not a joke to let Feng Zicai look in front of him.
Twelve cannons and twelve howitzers blasted against a hill.
The hillock was flattened directly.
No amount of words can be as shocking as this one.
The Qing soldiers in the city felt that they would never forget the scene before them in their lifetime.
Feng Zicai was also shocked.
"General Feng, can your flesh and blood stop our cannon?"
"Young general, you've made a fool of yourself today, but what I'm showing you is just part of the equipment of my brigade."
"Do you think Mr. Ba Banner can withstand our artillery?"
Feng Zicai looked at the soldiers around him. These people had followed him to guard the southwest region for many years.
They also have feelings. Chen Hu just ordered the cannon to be fired, which hit the mountain opposite, not them.
This also shows that this army really treats the soldiers as human beings.
This also doubled Chen Hu and Teng Longjun's goodwill in Feng Zicai's heart.
In the end, Feng Zicai decided to agree to fight against the Qing Dynasty.
At this time, Bai Tao and Liu Mingchuan also arrived.
"Come here, give me my general order to open the city gates. Everyone should put down their weapons and surrender. I will take full responsibility for this!"
Feng Zicai's personal guards were the first to put down their weapons and open the city gate. Seeing this, the others threw their weapons away faster than anyone else, but they clearly remembered how they didn't get the little hill bag just now.
Chen Hu led a brigade into the city and successfully captured Taiping City with zero casualties.
Chen Hu saluted Feng Zicai!
"Old General Feng, thank you for your profound righteousness. It is all your credit that we were able to capture Taiping City without bloodshed this time."
"What I said before is true. My young master, my lord, really told me that you are the contemporary Lian Po."
Feng Zicai was embarrassed.
He was about to kneel down when Chen Hu grabbed him.
Feng Zicai was also surprised when he saw that Chen Hu was so strong.
It seems that the other side did not lie to him. This army is too powerful.
"Young general, since I have surrendered, I will listen to your army. I have only one request. Please keep my brothers safe."
"Old General, don't think too much. You are all fine. When our army commander comes to the city later, he will make arrangements for you."
After a while, after Chen Hu completely took control of the city, Bai Tao and the others began to enter the city.
As soon as Bai Tao entered the city, he came to Chen Hu and Feng Zicai.
Chen Hu was the first to salute: "Reporting to the commander, our brigade successfully captured Taiping City, thanks to General Feng's understanding of justice."
Bai Tao returned the gesture.
He patted Chen Hu on the shoulder and said, "Well done. We are all our brothers. If we don't bleed, we won't bleed."
"Remember you, I will send a telegram to the Lord later to tell him the good news."
"Thank you, Commander."
Bai Tao looked at Feng Zicai beside him.
Feng Zicai also followed Chen Hu's example and saluted.
Chen Hu told him that there is no such thing as kowtow in their team, and they do not need to kneel in front of anyone.
He learned quite a bit.
Bai Tao also returned a military salute.
Feng Zicai was also shocked when he saw Bai Tao. He knew Bai Tao and had dealt with him before when he fought against the Taiping Army.
He didn't know whether he should call Bai Junmen or follow Chen Hu and call him Commander.
"Hello, General Feng, I am Bai Tao, Commander-in-Chief of the Tenglong Army. Welcome to join our army!"
After speaking, he went up and shook hands with Feng Zicai.
Feng Zicai was very excited. Bai Tao's level was much higher than his, and he had heard a lot of gossip about Bai Tao.
Li Hongzhang was promoted so quickly due to the outstanding abilities of Bai Tao and a group of other people.
In leading troops in battle, Bai Tao was much better than Li Hongzhang and Zeng Guofan.
Then he also saw Liu Mingchuan.
Since this army is led by Bai Tao, it is normal for Liu Mingchuan to seek refuge with him.
They are all family.
"Commander Bai, what do you think of these brothers of mine?"
Bai Tao smiled and said: "I have already thought about it, and your people will be integrated into Liu Mingchuan's army."
"I will find someone to help you train this new army. You two will stay with me first and get familiar with our army's operations."
"Although you are all generals and have led troops to fight for many years, your old almanacs are no longer suitable for our current combat model."
Both men saluted.
"yes!"
…
Bai Tao telegraphed the news of the capture of Taiping Mansion to Li Jingxiao.
At this time, Gan Hong also captured Sien Mansion and Zhen'an Mansion. Because of Liu Mingchuan's letters, they surrendered directly in these two places.
In the entire Guangxi, only Sicheng Prefecture and Qingyuan Prefecture were left that were not captured.
Gan Wei is sending troops to attack Qingyuan Mansion.
Li Jingxiao was very satisfied when he saw the telegrams sent from various places.
In addition to the ongoing war in Guangxi, a war has also begun in Hubei. Liu Bihua of Hunan and Li Xia of Henan both sent troops into Hubei.
Weng Tongjue, the governor of Huguang, had learned that all of Hunan had been lost. He also sent troops to Sichuan, Henan, and Shaanxi to request support.
As a result, except for Shaanxi, all other roads fell into disrepair and there was no movement at all.
He didn't even understand the situation yet, how could this group of rebels fight so fast.
But Weng Tongjue was very happy about one thing.
Hunan Governor Li Hanzhang must die this time.
If Li Hanzhang died in this war, forget it. If he escaped, he would write to the emperor to give him the death penalty.
Li Hongzhang made him lose his brother, and he wanted to make Li Hongzhang lose his brother.
He had no idea that this was actually the Li family's rebellion.
Zhang Ruijin only found his letter asking for help from Sichuan amusing.
He really wanted to lead troops to "support", but there was no one, so he could only be allowed to live a few more days.
Henan responded positively, and Li Xia sent a division of troops to "support"!
