The 600 governor-general model soldiers led by Hu Guoli were not taken seriously by Shang Kexi, but the 500 Zhenghuang Banner Han army brought by Geng Zhongde received the order to assist in the siege.

Hearing the order, Geng Zhongde did not hesitate or dissatisfied, and led his people down to prepare silently. Hu Guoli waited for a while, and saw that Shang Kexi had no generals. Although he was confused, he was also happy. There was no immortality in the war. He could see that Lin Shanzhi had led the green camp to attack the city. Judging from the performance of the Taiping Army in the city, this time, even if the soldiers under the command of King Pingnan went up, they might have to be beaten to death.

Before coming, the Governor repeatedly told himself that he must obey the orders of King Pingnan and not have any objections or dissatisfaction, because the relationship between Xinhui City is too important and must be put back under the control of the Qing army. The Taiping Army must not be occupied for a long time, so as not to lose control of the situation, which led to Li Laohu, who had just left at the beginning of the year, to force his troops to come again. However, it is not that he refuses to obey orders, but that King Pingnan does not order his generals at all. Since that is the case, let's sit in the mountains and watch the tigers fight.

From the bottom of my heart, Hu Guoli hoped that the Shang family's soldiers would die more, or even die. Who made Shang Kexi look down on him? And the Governor, who valued him, could not pee in the same pot with him. To be honest, if Guangdong really lost the two feudals of Pingnan and Jingnan, he, the most powerful general under the Governor, could really rise to the top and show his ambitions!

.........

Shang Kexi personally brought not only the elite soldiers under his command who could fight under his command. In addition to the 3,000 elite soldiers directly under the Pingnan King's vassal, there were 600 model soldiers of the Governor's Office, 500 soldiers under the Jingnan King's vassal, 4,000 soldiers stationed in Guangzhou Green Camp, 2,600 soldiers under the Guangzhou Prefecture's battalion, and more than 5,000 young and strong men mobilized for this war. There were a large number of mules and horses recruited. Unfortunately, the army did not carry artillery. This was not because Shang Kexi, who was the best at using firearms, did not want to bring artillery, but could not.

The number of artillery in Guangzhou is not smaller than that in Xinhui City. There are dozens of red artillery guns weighing thousands of pounds. Most of these cannons were purchased from Macau by the former Ming government. The amount of charge and power of the artillery guns made by the former Ming Dynasty Ministry of Works and the Nanzhen Fushi. Unfortunately, it is too heavy. Like the red artillery guns on the front of Ningyuan city, they can only be used to defend the city and not for field battles. If you have to remove these cannons from the front of the city and pull them to Xinhui, then time will be greatly delayed. In just a few days, you can't pull the cannons.

The cannons could not be pulled, but a group of small cannons used in field battles were brought, including tiger squat cannons, large pole cannons used by the Ming army, and small cannons built for the Qing army after Kong Youde surrendered to the Jin Dynasty. The artillery battalion was single, with seventy or eighty small cannons of various types, and most of the gunners were from the Han army flag. However, now the Taiping Army is huddled in Xinhui City and defended by the city. There is no sign that they dare to go out of the city to fight in the field, so these small cannons are useless.

The Green Camp failed in its first attack. The small cannon was not used. At this point, it could only fight with people's lives. Fortunately, the Taiping Army in the city seemed to be at the end of its strength. Otherwise, Shang Kexi would not have suppressed his soldiers. He said a thousand words and ten thousand. King Pingnan was not a fool. If he could not even take down a battle to consume people's lives, he would not have fought. He believed that as long as his soldiers came on, the Xinhui City would definitely be destroyed!

...........

As soon as the flag of King Pingnan was shot out, Lin Shanzhi's heart began to jump up. The Green Camp failed to siege the city and lost thousands of losses. As a general in command, he had to be frightened. Who knew if King Pingnan would exhale anger and ask for his head.

After all, losing thousands of people at a time was a complete defeat. Although there were the fierce resistance of the Taiping Army and the overly strong Xinhui City, as the commander, he made mistakes in the face of the battle. If the superiors really blame him, what could he be like? Could it be that he dared to complain in front of King Pingnan and put the blame for the failure of the war on the prince?

Fortunately, Prince Pingnan did not scold him, but the order to attack the city again also made Lin Shanzhi feel a strife. The bodies under the Xinhui city wall were piled up in front of him, and the morale of his subordinates had long been destroyed by the Taiping Army. If he attacked again, it would be impossible to say that he was not afraid.

"Sir, what should I do?"

Lin Shanzhi's subordinates, Guerrilla Guo Guangquan, was not willing to attack the city again. When he attacked the city just now, his subordinates rushed to the front and suffered the most heavy losses. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that the Taiping Army in Xinhui City was definitely not a mob bandit soldier, but a strong army that was at least not weaker than the Green Camp. The defense on the city was also very well organized. If he attacked again, the Green Camp would definitely suffer a lot. More than half of his soldiers had suffered casualties. If he really wanted to pounce on him, he would probably have broken the city and his guerrilla would be bare.

Lin Shanzhi glared at Guo Guangquan and said angrily: "What can I do? The prince asked me to beat me, let's fight me!"

After saying that, his brows frowned very deeply. This time, the King of Pingnan even sent his soldiers. It can be seen that the prince was determined to seize Xinhui City. The green camps were so happy. The soldiers under the King of Pingnan usually regarded themselves as bannermen, and were arrogant and arrogant towards them. Now they could spare the green camps. The King of Pingnan's order was to say that the soldiers of our family were attacking the city themselves, but if they really fought, they would be the green camps rushing in front. Could it be that the bannermen and men rushed to the front line as cannon fodder!

Damn it!

Lin Shanzhi cursed in his heart, but he had not stopped the matter until now, so he could only grit his teeth and press his brothers on.

"Sir, you have to fight, but we can't really beat all the brothers..."

Guo Guangquan also knew that they would not be able to go to this, but he didn't want his subordinates to really kill them, so he left a bare guerrilla attack on his own.

"Um?"

Lin Shanzhi raised his eyebrows, hesitated, wondering whether to save some strength in secret so as not to be completely wiped out.

At this moment, the guards of King Pingnan called horses and sent orders. After the guards led by the leader arrived, they did not dismount. Instead, they shouted directly: "General Lin, King Pingnan has an order. After breaking the city, they will not be sealed! Take half of the wealth and green camp of the children in the city!"

"Ah?! Don't seal the knife?! Take half!"

This order made the Green Camp generals stunned for a moment, and then someone's face turned red. Lin Shanzhi's frown and thoughts were swept away by this sentence. He turned to his spirits and shouted to the left and right: "Have you heard that you have heard that you will not be sealed after breaking the city! This is the gold mine that the prince rewarded to us in the Green Camp! Brothers, cheer up, even if you climb, you will climb to the top of Xinhui City. After breaking the city, the women will be allowed to be taken by the brothers. When the brothers are happy, I will be happy!"

After hearing Lin Shanzhi's rude words, the green camp generals suddenly shouted excitedly. Most of them had experience in massacre of the city. They knew that once the superiors spoke, they would not be able to block the sword, and the fun after the city was broken would be great. Then women and silver would be lacking!

"Brothers, rush, take down Xinhui City, let us choose!"
