Ronglu and Zeng Guoquan were not happy for long. After a few hours, the two led Miao Bing and more than 300 remnants of Xiang Yong to escape back. How could Chen Yucheng be the kind of person who ignores the beginning and the end?

After Chen Yucheng accidentally defeated Shu Xing'a's central army, he took advantage of the fog before he could clear up and led the Taiping cavalry to jump out of the Qing army's encirclement. After catching up with Lai Wenguang's troops, he and Lai Wenguang discussed killing the Qing demon and retaliating.

After retreating for more than ten miles, Chen Yucheng personally led more than a thousand cavalry to kill a retaliation. As Ronglu brought people to chase him, the Taiping cavalry blocked his head without hesitation, cut off his waist, and cut off his tail, breaking the Qing army of Ronglu's troops into three parts. Then the cavalry chased and massacred the infantry one-sidedly.

Fortunately, there are many ponds in the local river bay in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. Ronglu and Zeng Guoquan, with more than 300 people, finally passed an unknown small river before they escaped. When they moved to a village to rest, Ronglu realized that he had been stabbed on the back.

When the personal guard was wounding him, Ronglu stroked his scattered hair and looked at Zeng Guoquan who was sitting on a grinding stone and gasping for breath, saying, "Haha, I forgot that we are facing the four-eyed dog Chen Yucheng. This kid is extremely powerful when he checks the ball back at the thirty points. He is careless."

Zeng Guoquan said, "What's the Thirty Proof? I heard that the Four-Eyed Dog is one of the four major proofs of the pseudo-Western King, but not the Thirty Proofs. Besides, you can still laugh when you are defeated?"

Ronglu still smiled and said, "People always grow up in failure, right? Master Jiu, let's go back to the army now. Next time we meet Chen Yucheng, we will know that this kid cannot be chased."

Zeng Guoquan gave him a blank look and thought that although what Rong Lu said made sense, they had a big fall this time, and only 30% of the people they brought back were left. I don’t know how to tell Zeng Guofan.

After returning to the periphery of Nanchang, Ronglu and Zeng Guoquan realized that Shu Xinga had died in battle. Fortunately, the Jinxian Gate in Nanchang had been opened, and Jiang Zhongyuan's troops in the same city had been connected. Nanchang City could obtain endless supply of food, soldiers and firearms outside the city. Even if Yang Fuqing's Taiping Army had many troops, it would be unlikely to break through Nanchang.

After recording some losses, all the Qing army troops could not laugh. Although they lifted the siege of Nanchang, Shu Xing'a, the imperial envoy of the bandit suppression, was killed in battle, and the more than ten artillery purchased at high prices were all destroyed. What was even more frustrating was that the Qing army was killed and injured more than 8,000 people. The Taiping Army outside the city only left more than a thousand corpses. The arrows that were covered in indiscriminately by both sides in the fog naturally caused greater losses to the more crowded side. Most of the Qing army actually died at the hands of their own people.

Ronglu was silent for a long time after hearing the battle report, before saying to Zeng Guoquan: "I miscalculated. The four-eyed dog was ready to retreat early in the morning. He originally wanted to retreat under the heavy fog. If we wait for another day, maybe even the gunpowder to blow up the Mucheng will be left."

Zeng Guoquan snorted, "The four-eyed dog is as cunning as the pseudo-Western King, Zhonghua, you don't have to be depressed. Our contribution to this battle cannot be erased."

As Zeng Guoquan said, the Qing court praised Nanchang for this battle. When the Qing army lost its troops and lost its territory, Nanchang defended it very much. Jiang Zhongyuan relied on this battle to replace Shu Xing'a's imperial envoy and obtained the real power to command Jiangxi's military affairs. Ronglu and Zeng Guoquan were also rewarded. Although they were not promoted, Ronglu's fate of fighting was spread.

The Qing court praised Jiang Zhongyuan and other Qing troops in Jiangxi. He ordered Jiang Zhongyuan to lead various Qing troops to suppress and slaughter the Taiping Army of Yang Fu's Qing troops, which was still entrenched outside Nanchang City. Jiang Zhongyuan was not Shu Xinga, and the Qing army showed extraordinary combat effectiveness under his command. Ten months later, Yang Fu's Qing troops were forced to evacuate Nanchang, and on the way back, they were pursued by Jiang Zhongyuan's Qing troops. Only more than 30,000 people were returned. The Taiping Army in the East Hall under Nanchang City was killed in 50,000 troops.

Fortunately, the Taiping Army in the West Hall of Chen Yucheng attacked the Qing army everywhere, so Yang Fuqing could retreat calmly, otherwise he would have to take his own life.

After learning that Yang Fuqing was defeated, Yang Xiuqing was furious and immediately recalled Yang Fuqing, deprived him of his official position and was imprisoned. He lost 50,000 troops and was deprived of his official position and was imprisoned. Yang Xiuqing's protection was extraordinary, and this was also criticized by many Taiping generals. If it were someone else, he would have been long ago been snowed by Yun Zhongxue. Then Yang Xiuqing sent Hu Yihuang, who was still in Jiangxi, to replace Yang Fuqing's Taiping Army and continued to deal with Jiang Zhongyuan in Jiangxi.

In the Dongwang Mansion of Tianjing, Yang Xiuqing looked at Yang Fuqing who was kneeling on the ground and cried bitterly. Yang Fuqing did not even think of Chen Yucheng's grace for resolution, but only said that the failure of the East Palace this time was caused by the sudden withdrawal of Chen Yucheng's troops in the West Palace.

After listening to it, Yang Xiuqing was also angry and slapped the table and said angrily: "It's too much!"

Chen Chengying carefully advised, "Your Highness the Eastern King, the defeat in Nanchang cannot be entirely blamed for Chen Yucheng. The West Palace's headquarters is only 20,000 in Jiangxi, and the confrontation with six or seventy thousand Qing Yao outside Jinxian Gate in Nanchang for ten months is already at the end of his strength. It is impossible not to retreat. Besides, Chen Yucheng also sent a military report to inform Yang Guozong to retreat together."

Yang Xiuqing said coldly: "What do you mean? Did I even wrongly accuse Chen Yucheng? Retreatment before the battle is a death sentence! Qin Rigang!"

King Qin Rikang, who was sitting beside him, hurriedly stood up to respond. Yang Xiu said coldly: "You bring 20,000 troops into Jiangxi, take the edict of the Heavenly King and this king, and take Chen Yucheng away from his official position and take him back to Tianjing for punishment! If there is any abnormal movement in the ministry, you can join forces with Hu Yihuang to wipe me out on the spot!"

The generals and officials of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the hall were shocked. Chen Yucheng was a powerful general in the West Palace, and Chen Yucheng's 20,000 soldiers were also soldiers in the West Palace. If the East King really did this, it would be a surprise that the Taiping Army would be in trouble.

Chen Chengying immediately stood up and advised: "Your Highness the Eastern King thinks twice. Although Chen Yucheng is at fault, his troops have killed the most Qing demons in Jiangxi. Moreover, if he is sent to him like this, I am afraid that the Western King will not look good on the face."

Yang Xiuqing sneered: "You only care about whether the Western King looks good on the face is not good. Is this king look good on the face? Do you have no power to deal with a small inspection in the West Palace? No need to say anything! Qin Rigang, you go down and order troops immediately to go to war. I will give you the edict in three days!"

Seeing that the King of the East was angry, everyone dared not persuade him again. In order to cover up the disastrous defeat of the East Palace, the King of the East also ordered people to draft official documents on the spot and sent a document to the King of the West.

Chen Chengying looked at Yang Xiuqing and was angry. He sneered and turned out of the hall. Qin Rik had just come up and pulled him away. He asked in a low voice as he walked, "You can't relieve the anger of the East King like this. Do you really want to see our Taiping Holy Soldiers kill each other?"

Chen Chengying said lightly: "This is what the Heavenly King means. The situation where the East Hall and the West Hall join forces finally reveal flaws. How can we not use it well? Once the East Hall and the West Hall are facing each other, whether the Heavenly King helps the East Hall to break the West Hall or connects the West Hall to break the East Hall, the room for turning around will be greater. In this way, the Heavenly King will gain the upper hand and we will be able to turn over, otherwise we will be suppressed by the East Hall and the West Hall."

Qin Rigang said oh, and smiled gloomyly: "Then I will burn this fire more vigorously when I arrive in Jiangxi."

Chen Chengying nodded and said, "That's true, but Chen Yucheng has a lot of talent and the King of Heaven also attaches great importance to it. If he can understand the current affairs, the King of Yan might as well not look at it. The King of Heaven will find a way to protect him. There is also the 20,000 soldiers in the West Palace, and they don't have to be wiped out all of them. They are willing to gather with the King of Heaven."

The two of them said and walked, and within a few words, they took down the lives of tens of thousands of people ahead. They didn't know what if the soldiers in front knew about it. After leaving the Eastern Prince's Mansion, Qin Rigang asked Chen Chengying in a low voice: "What does the Heavenly King mean to help the East Palace or the West Palace?"

Chen Chengying smiled faintly and said, "The King of the East is inside and the King of the West is outside. Of course, the King of Heaven wants to remove the people around him first."

Qin Rigang also understood and smiled and said, "How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed?"

Chen Chengying said lightly: "There is also the Heavenly Father who came to earth."

The two followed each other and smiled and left separately. A carriage was parked there at a street corner not far from the East Prince's Mansion. The curtains in the car were lifted up. The people in the car watched Chen Chengying and Qin Rikang leave, and the man snorted and put down the curtain.

Following the handlebar, he continued to drive the carriage forward. When he arrived outside the Tianwang Mansion, a person got out of the carriage. He went forward and said a few words to the card knife hand of the Tianwang Mansion, and then followed the card knife hand into the room.

After a while, a Bo Shu came out of the Heavenly King's Mansion and led the carriage into the side door of the Heavenly King's Mansion. When he arrived outside the inner hall of the Heavenly King's Mansion, the carriage stopped and a person got out of the carriage. This person was the Western King Xiao Yungui! But he brought a scarf on his face and followed the Bo Shu from the Heavenly King's Mansion to enter the inner hall directly.

The king of heaven in the inner hall, Hong Xiuquan, was sitting alone inside, with a chessboard in front of him, and there was an endgame on it. Hong Xiuquan was frowning and staring at the chessboard, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiao Yungui entered the inner hall and took the scarf and went to pay a visit. Hong Xiuquan laughed and hurriedly stood up and helped him up and said, "Why do you have to be so polite to the mate? Come on, come on, let's sit down and talk."

After Xiao Yungui sat down, a female official from the Heavenly King's Mansion presented tea and then retreated. Only he and the Heavenly King were left in the hall.

"Brother is so interested, I'll watch this endgame alone." Xiao Yungui didn't know how to play Go, so he couldn't see this endgame.

Hong Xiuquan smiled and said, "This game is like life. Unfortunately, only two people play chess, and there are fewer changes. If three people can play together, it will be complicated and perhaps even more interesting."

Xiao Yungui scratched his head and said, "I don't know how to play chess, nor do I dare to play chess with experts, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at if I lose."

Hong Xiuquan said oh, put the chess piece in his hand back into the chess basket and said, "The chess board is here, I can teach the chassis to make moves."

Xiao Yungui pondered for a moment and said, "I wonder who my brother wants to teach me to play chess with?"

Hong Xiuquan said lightly: "Of course it's the one in the east." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
