Just when Taiyuan was fighting fiercely in Beining and Taiyuan, the French army outside Zhennan Pass also began a new round of attacks.

Negri personally led a French army to attack Guanqian Pass. Under the cover of artillery fire, he captured three fortresses of the Qing army on Xiaoqing Mountain in the east of the east of the French army. Another French army, led by Colonel Belan, rushed towards Guanqian Pass long wall.

The battle on the first day was very fierce, but the Qing army defended the defense line under the command of Feng Zicai. After a whole day of bloody battles, the enemy's rampant attack did not gain any advantage.

At dawn the next day, Nigri led his army to attack again.

He first sent his deputy, Major Letieri, to lead a French army to take advantage of the opportunity of covering the mountains and climbing the mountain, hoping to sneak attack the Qing army's Daqingshan Fortress. Then he came to his high position and cooperated with the French army's main force on the front attack to seize the Qing army's pass position.

However, the mountain road was winding and rugged, and the terrain of the French army attacked was not familiar. They were like headless flies and were walking around the mountain canyon. After walking for more than five hours, they still couldn't find the target. They had to go back from the original path and try to attack directly.

However, Nigri thought that the sneak attack had succeeded, and could not wait to use all the reserve forces and launch a fierce attack from the front.

At 10 a.m., the French army approached the long wall under the cover of artillery fire, and a few had climbed into the wall.

Seeing that the Qing army was a little shaken, Feng Zicai shouted with his spear, led his two sons to jump out of the long wall, and took the lead in rushing into the enemy group without hesitation, and launched a close-knit hand-to-hand battle with the invading army. Seeing this, the deeply inspired subordinates rushed with a storm.

The main forces of the Qing army's left and right wings and the second and third echelons also rushed to participate in the war. The fifth battalion "Cui Army" from the west had rushed into Longmen Pass and surrounded the French army's side and back; Wang Debang's troops also rushed over from the east, intending to block the reinforcements from the French army from Lang Son and cut off their transportation lines; Wang Xiaoqi's troops arrived from Fengwei Mountain and cooperated with Chen Jia, Su Yuanchun, Jiang Zonghan and other Qing troops who defended Dong Lian to attack Xiao Qing Mountain, recaptured the three fortresses occupied yesterday, and followed the defeated enemy and pressed down from the right front of the pass in front of the pass.

The French army was attacked from all sides, and Negri had to convey orders and began to retreat in a trapezoidal formation.

At this moment, Tang Jingsong brought his fourth battalion of "Jingzi Army".

The "Jingzi Army" was the newly recruited brave camp of Tang Jingsong, and the core of it was the "Black Flag Army" led by He Jilin. At this time, this new force joined the battle and immediately became the last straw that broke the French army.

He Jilin's troops, equipped with Hatchais machine guns, immediately launched a fierce attack on the French army. The other third battalions of the "Jingzi Army" immediately pressed on, and the French retreat turned into a complete escape.

During the fierce battle, Negri was seriously injured, and the enemy's morale was in chaos. He didn't even dare to return. He retreated to Beijiang. For eight days, the French army retreated more than 200 miles, and the Qing army killed and injured a total of more than 1,000 French officers and soldiers and soldiers were captured, and various guns, ammunition, and weapons were seized.

On September 27, the remaining French troops finally saw the Fulangtang City in the distance.

However, the city wall changed the king's flag. At this time, more than 2,000 French troops stationed in Fulangtang had already abandoned the city and surrendered under the siege of more than 10,000 Black Flag Army and the Yunnan Army.

On September 17, when Poliye's defeated army finally arrived at the city of Beining, it was already late at night. At this time, because he was constantly chasing the Black Flag Army along the way, only more than 2,000 soldiers were left.

The Black Flag Army was like a wolf on the grassland, chasing behind her for a moment. The French army was in a hurry and did not pay attention to the strangeness of Beining City. When they saw the opened city gate, no one doubted why the city gate had not been closed in the middle of the night. All they thought was to enter the city quickly to save their lives.

Poliye, who had been absent along the way, finally came back to Beining. At this time, the first thing he thought about entering the city was to send a report to Hanoi and request reinforcements.

At this moment, countless torches suddenly lit up in the city, figures and rifles were lit up at the French army who had just entered the city, and countless voices shouted "SeRender" loudly!

"Surrender?" Along the way, Poliye heard this French word from the Chinese people countless times, but never penetrated his heart so deeply.

Looking at the exhausted soldiers around him and no longer fighting spirit, and looking at the black flag army that was densely packed with fighting spirit not far away, I heard the shouts from outside the city getting closer and closer. He knew that he was completely finished this time!

"Put down your weapons, soldiers, for you, the war is over, and I hope you will receive the respect you deserve."

After giving this order, Poriet pulled out his gun and was about to commit suicide. He did not want to be the first French general to be captured by Asians.

Poriye's suicide was not successful. His general uniform was too obvious in the crowd. Before he could raise his gun, four or five black flag soldiers rushed forward and pushed him to the ground.

Outside the city, Ding Huai and Cen Yubao led the brigade of Yunnan troops to fight. Afterwards, they learned that Poliye had been captured. The two laughed happily. As for the French soldiers who escaped from the city, they would just flee to Fulangtang or Hanoi, as soon as they would be dishes on the plate sooner or later.

In the next two days, the Yunnan army continued to drive, and the Qing army in Beining gradually rose to 15,000. On the 20th, more than 10,000 Qing army surrounded the Fulangtang. At this time, the Qing army not only had sufficient troops and high morale, but also obtained more than a dozen heavy artillery left by the French army under Taiyuan City and in Beining City.

Subsequently, the Qing army concentrated its firepower to bombard the south gate of Fulangtang. On the 21st, several sections of the city wall outside the south gate were collapsed. The Yunnan army and the black flag army swarmed into the city. The defenders in the city could not resist at all, and Fulangtang was broken.

On the 27th, when Nigri's Second Brigade retreated from Liangshan, what awaited them in Fulangtang were tens of thousands of elite Qing troops who were raising their strength! Cen Yubao and Ding Huai used their old tricks again, and the desperate French soldiers had to follow Bishuo's footsteps and surrendered to the Qing army under the city.

The next day, the Qing army that followed arrived at Fulangtang City one after another.

"Report..."

Feng Zicai put down the map in his hand and walked to the rewarded scout in two steps, "Have you checked it?"

The scout hurriedly said, "It has been confirmed that the one who broke the city was a unit of the Yunnan Army, and the one who led the army was Cen Yubao. This person was at the top of the city and invited him to meet him."

"Cen Yubao?" Feng Zicai frowned, and had never heard of this name in his impression. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration in his mind, "Have this Taoist ever mentioned that he had a brother named Cen Yuying?"

The scout said awkwardly: "This... has never been mentioned..."

Feng Zicai waved his hand, "Forget it, go and help me invite Ambassador Guannan, Lord Tang, to come to my camp."

"Yeah!"

The spy turned around and left. Soon, Tang Jingsong rode a horse to Feng Zicai's tent.

"Feng Junmen, brother, I heard that he had already understood the situation of the city's internal team, why didn't he leave to contact the city?"

Although Feng Zicai's grade is higher than Tang Jingsong, Tang Jingsong was the ambassador of Guannan appointed by the emperor after all. He was considered an imperial envoy, so he could not be neglected. "It's so that Lord Tang knew that the troops in the city were part of the Yunnan Army, and the leader's name was Cen and Yubao. Can Lord Tang recognize this person?"

Tang Jingsong was stunned: "Cen Yubao? Is it the legitimate brother of Cen Yuying, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou?"

"Sure enough, Lord Tang recognized it. I also heard someone mention it briefly. Since this person is in the city, it is hard for us to be proud of his brother's face. It's better to go to the city to meet each other and discuss it's not too late to enter the city."

When Tang Jingsong came from the capital, he naturally knew that Cen Yuying was a vassal official who was highly appreciated by the emperor. Not only did he strongly support Liu Yongfu during this war in Tonkin, but he also personally led a large army to Vietnam to support him. Since the city was Cen Yuying's younger brother, they came over to meet him, which was a good relationship.

"Since that's the case, then please ask Feng Junmen to summon all the generals to go with you."

Feng Zicai said: "That's what it means."

The fast horses in the army were sent quickly. Soon, Su Yuanchun, Wang Debang, Wang Xiaoqi, Chen Jia, Jiang Hanchen and others came one after another. Feng Zicai told everyone about his intentions, so everyone took their own soldiers and rode their horses to the city gate one by one.

On the top of the city, Cen Yubao was waiting for the Qing army to come across the opposite side. It took half an hour to see dozens of cavalry walking out of the army in the distance, each holding a flag, and one of the poles was written on the middle. There were "Wang", "Su", "Chen", "Jiang" and others on the left and right. I thought that the generals of the army arrived.

Cen Yubao hurried down the city tower, ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and took a few personal soldiers to greet them.

Seeing several cavalry coming out of the city, Tang Jingsong was the ambassador of Guannan in Qin and was ordered to coordinate the troops of Tokyo. At this time, he patted the horses and went up first. "Is the one who came here, Cen Yuying, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Cen Zhengtai's brother?"

Cen Yubao heard the sound familiar. When he walked in, he found that it was Tang Jingsong. Last year, Tang Jingsong first came to Tokichi for the first time and was once under Cen Yuying's command, so he had an old acquaintance with Cen Yubao. At this time, he hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Lord Tang. Brothers don't know that Lord Tang has arrived. I have missed the opportunity to welcome him. I hope he will be more and more tolerant."

Tang Jingsong smiled and said, "Brother Chu Qing, come on, I will introduce you to you for your brother." As he said that, he brought Cen Yubao to Feng Zicai and others and introduced Cen Yubao one by one.

"This is Guannan Military Affairs Assistant, GX Admiral Feng Zicai Feng Junmen..."

Cen Yubao hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Xiaoguan Teng, Qiandao Cen Yubao, I have seen Lord Feng, please forgive me for being in the armor and armor, and I cannot be fully polite."

Feng Zicai replied, "It's okay, it's okay, Taoist Cen is so polite."

After introducing Feng Zicai, Tang Jingsong continued to introduce one by one: "This is the Guannan Military Affairs Council Office, GX Admiral Su Yuanchun..."

"The official has met Lord Su..."

"Guannan Military Affairs Assistant Wang Debang..." "Registered Admiral Chen Jia and Chen..." "Registered Admiral Jiang Hanchen and Jiang..."

With Tang Jingsong's introduction, Cen Yubao and everyone met with the respect one by one. The military commanders who came here were either admirals or registered admirals. The lowest-ranking Tang Jingsong, who was also an imperial envoy, made Cen Yubao, who was also a fourth-rank, feel embarrassed in his heart.

Several people followed Cen Yubao into the city and came to the former governor's office of Beijiang, Vietnam, which was Cen Yubao's temporary office. Originally, Feng Zicai meant that the Yunnan army that entered the city first was the main force, and he and others were all guests, so naturally Cen Yubao should sit in the main seat. However, Cen Yubao refused to sit in the upper seat and persuaded him, and was still the oldest. At the same time, Feng Zicai, the top leader of the army, was the head of the head, and next to him was Tang Jingsong, who was appointed as the ambassador of Guannan. Although the grade was low, he was at least half an imperial envoy. As for Cen Yubao, he sat in the position of the first right hand. Opposite him were Su Yuanchun, Wang Debang, Wang Xiaoqi, Chen Jia and Jiang Hanchen.

After everyone sat down, Feng Zicai said, "We were chasing the legal person all the way here. Unexpectedly, Lord Cen took the lead and captured the French army in one net. It was really gratifying."

Cen Yubao also knew that he could capture Nigri's defeated army so easily, which was indeed the advantage of Feng Zicai and other troops' previous battles. He was fighting to death in front of him, and he reaped profits in the city, which made anyone feel uncomfortable. Fortunately, Cen Yubao has a lot of military achievements now, and he is not greedy for these more than two thousand French prisoners, so he said: "If you don't defeat the legal person first, how can you take the opportunity to collect profits? The officials dare not be greedy for merit. After you lead the army into the city, all the prisoners will be handed over."

The other generals were very frustrated when they entered the city, and the credit they had received was intercepted. If they were just an unknown general in the Yunnan Army at this time, they would have been the deputy general. Even if they were the general and the rank of admiral, they could still take back most of the credit. However, Cen Yubao had the relationship between the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou Cen Yuying, which made the few people dare not act rashly.

But now Cen Yubao is so "superior" that he actually doesn't want to give up. Everyone is happy. After pretending to give up, they take it with the flow. At this time, the few people looked at Cen Yubao again, and they liked it no matter how they looked at it.

Then Tang Jingsong asked, "Brother Chu Qing, I heard that my brother, the Black Flag Army of Liu Yongfu, was fighting in Xuanguang and Taiyuan, and why did he suddenly appear in Beijiang?"
