After stabilizing the generals, Roto ordered the entire army to advance towards Qingyuan.

At this time, in addition to more than 4,000 Manchu and Mongolian cavalry under Roto, there were also more than 1,000 Han cavalry under the command of Xian Guoan, who originally belonged to Dingnan, bringing the total number of cavalry to 6,000. In terms of infantry, there are 9,000 green battalions led by Li Benshen, the admiral of Zuobiao. These battalions are from Beizhili and Xuan Dabing, and most of the officers are from the frontier army of Ming Xuan.

Admiral Zhang Yong's army only had more than 2,500 soldiers, but in terms of elites, he was more courageous than Li Benshen's army, probably because the battalion of Zhang Yong's army was the soldiers of Guyuan, Shaanxi and Gansu. Guyuan was one of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, and it fought against the Mongols all the year round, so the soldiers were more elite than Xuan Da. When the Qing army entered Guizhou, Zhang Yong led his troops to rush to the forefront, and his contribution was no worse than that of Li Benshen. There is a saying in the Qing army that the soldiers of Shaanxi and Gansu are the strongest in the green camp, which has been confirmed in many battlefields. When Roto was ordered by Duny to go north, he asked Duny for Zhang Yong, hoping that the Shaanxi-Gansu green battalion soldiers under Zhang Yong could make great contributions for him.

Four generals of the Qing army going south were from the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp, and the other three were Zhao Liangdong, deputy general under Hong Chengchou's account, Wang Jinbao, a guerrilla on the right, and Sun Sike, a guerrilla on the left. Now, except for Zhang Yong, the other three are under the tent of Hong Chengchou in Yunnan, and did not come with the army.

Xian Guoan gathered more than 5,000 defeated soldiers in Hechi, and with the 4,000 soldiers brought from Duyun by Chen Weixin, the governor of Guangxi, Luoto had nearly 30,000 troops available, and thousands of civilians, most of whom were strong men from Guizhou.

On May 17, the banner of the Qing army's vanguard Zhenglan Qi cavalry appeared in the sky over Yiyang Station, west of Qingyuanfu City. At the same time, the Qing army also discovered the red flag played by the Taiping army.

........

Roto did not expect that the Taiping army did not rely on the city to defend, but the entire army was out, posing for a decisive battle with him at Yiyangyi.

Yu Shizhong, the commander of the Guangxi Field Army of the Taiping Army, had long been determined to completely wipe out the Luoto Division entrenched in Hechi. Originally, he planned to wait for a batch of granular gunpowder still on the way to explode the Hechi city wall like Qingyuan. The army suddenly rushed out to attack Qingyuan, which made Yu Shizhong a little surprised, but before he could think about it, he passed an order to all the four town soldiers belonging to the Guangxi Field Army to gather towards Qingyuan.

Yu Shizhong chose the battlefield at the wide Yiyang Station, which was a battlefield that prevented the Taiping army from gaining geographical advantages, and was even conducive to the cavalry of the Qing army. The towns to which the legion belonged had doubts about the commander's selection of the battlefield in Yiyang Yi, which was beneficial to the Qing army, but Yu Shizhong defied all opinions and insisted that the decisive battle with the Qing army would be at Yiyang Yi.

Yu Shizhong made a military order to the commander Zhou Shixiang. Seven days later, he would report victory to Guangdong, and he would also send the heads of Roto and Xian Guoan. Therefore, in this battle, he not only wanted to defeat the Qing army, but to wipe out the entire army. them. Therefore, Yu Shizhong must reassure Roto to the battlefield, that he will put all his troops on the battlefield. Only in this way can he defeat the enemy in one fell swoop and collect all the merits, instead of letting the frontier and Guoan peace in the battle of Qingyuan. Thousands of Qing troops fled.

This is a bold campaign deployment. Since the establishment of the Taiping Army, there has never been a precedent for fielding tens of thousands of Qing troops. The Chaohui War was more of a battle of defense. It was not so much that Jidu was defeated by the Taiping Army, but rather that he was defeated by Hunger. The only two large-scale field battles with the Qing army and victories were the Battle of Shenwan and the Battle of Songjiawolou. But whether the battle of Shenwan or the battle of Songjiawolou was not a simple field battle, the Taiping army could not win without geographical factors. Without the swamps of Shenwan which made it difficult for the Manchu cavalry to move, the outcome of the battle would be difficult to say. In the battle of Songjiawolou, the Ming and Qing sides did not expect the existence of each other in advance. With the cover of the night and the surprise of the Fifth Town C Brigade lying on the mountain, the Taiping military was able to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop.

More importantly, whether it is Shenwan or Songjiawolou, the strength of the Qing army is no more than 10,000 at most, and this time the Roto army has nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses, including 6,000 cavalry. This strength is not worse than the economy from Chaozhou all the way. For this reason, each town will inevitably have doubts. The fourth town general Wang Youxi, the thirteenth town general Shang Keyuan, and the fourteenth town general Geng Zhongde all expressed their concerns to Yu Shizhong.

However, Yu Shizhong told them with great confidence that the Taiping Army would be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. Moreover, Yu Shizhong emphasized to them, "We are the Guangxi Field Army. If we can't fight in the field, what kind of army are we? This battle is to let the Qing army know that our Taiping Army can fight in the field!"

Yu Shizhong got the support of two generals in the field battle between Yiyangyi and the Qing army. One was Blind Li, the commander of the Iron Man Guard, and the other was the "Horse Harrier" who led 2,000 cavalry and was transferred to the Guangxi Field Army. Wang. Auxiliary minister.

What the blind man shouted was to tell them to see how powerful the blind master was, and the 2,000 Mongolian cavalry under his command, besides his horsemanship, was relied on by the horse hawk. Now, one of the two is sitting on the ground with 800 iron guards and waiting quietly, while the other is taking out the wine bag and drinking wine with a few full of Mongolian generals beside him.

.........

A large amount of information about the Ming army in Yiyang Station was quickly sent to Roto. Roto, Xian Guoan, and Arzin were startled at first, but then they were overjoyed. If the Taiping army held on to Qingyuan, it would still be quite difficult for the Qing army to succeed in a quick battle. Now the opponent is out of the city to fight in the field. Isn't this abandoning their strengths and promoting their weaknesses? Don't these Taiping bandits know that thousands of Qing Dynasty have come this time. Full of cavalry!

After the orders were issued, Roto brought Lian Guoan and Arzin to Yiyang Station. Looking at the wide battlefield in front of him, Roto had a smile on his face, Xian Guoan was also relieved, and Arzin burst out laughing. stand up.

Afterwards, Admiral Li Benshen from the left and Admiral Zhang Yong from the right also expressed the emotion that the generals of the Taiping Army seemed to be ignorant of soldiers.

The trumpet of "woo woo" sounded, and teams of Manchu, Mongolian and Han cavalry rushed out from different directions to Yiyang Station. Roto's order to the cavalry was to encircle the Taiping from the flanks.

The opposite Taiping Army commander Yu Shizhong hoped that Roto would not leave behind, and Roto did not leave behind. His desire for victory was stronger than Yu Shizhong.

After all 6,000 cavalry troops were dispatched, Roto used the left-biao admiral Li Benshen to fight against the Taiping army's middle army, the right-biao admiral Zhang Yong and Guangxi governor Chen Weixin's department to deal with the Taiping army's right wing, and the line Guoan department to deal with the Taiping army's left wing. .

More than 28,000 Qing troops were divided into several large formations and advanced towards the Taiping army in Yiyang Station with the sound of horns. As long as the cavalry from both flanks encircled the Taiping army, the Qing army would kill the Taiping army and turn it over. .

After a large number of Qing cavalry came from the two flanks~www.mtlnovel.com~ Yu Shizhong waved his flag and ordered the fourth town on the left flank and the thirteenth town on the right flank to lengthen the front, so that the Qing cavalry was also forced to lengthen the front. Immediately afterwards, the flag was thrown again, and the fifth and fifteenth towns of the Chinese army formed a battle formation and stepped forward.

The flags fluttered and the dust was everywhere. Yiyang Station is golden and iron horse, and the war is about to break out.

Roto frowned, and he found that the Taiping army seemed to have no less troops than him, and there were also cavalry in the rear of the opponent.

No wonder the thieves dared to fight with me here, because they had something to rely on, Roto thought.

Ild watched for a moment and reminded Roto: "General, the enemy's flanks are stretching!"

Roto nodded and ordered the cavalry to ignore the Taiping army and attacked their flanks directly, making sure to attract the attention of the Taiping army to the two flanks. Li Benshen was also ordered to prepare, once the Taiping army had the action of withdrawing troops from the central army to defend the two flanks, they would immediately take advantage of the situation to kill them. The Qing army on the right and left also received the order of the generals at the same time. Zhang Yong looked at the dark formation of the Taiping army on the opposite side, and suddenly there was a sense of pride in his heart.
