Henan Governor Ying Gui also added a fire between Wu Chaoyue and Senggelinqin. Although Ying Gui didn't want to make Wu Chaoyue and Senggelinqin furious in the war zone where he was responsible for, and he once hoped that a miracle would happen, so that Senggelinqin and Wu Chaoyue could get along well in the Central Plains War Zone. However, just as soon as he saw Wu Chaoyue sued the letter to settle the previous accounts, Ying Gui understood that he could not stop him. Even Wu Chaoyue, who had a good reputation in terms of measurement, would not give up, let alone the famous arrogant and arrogant Monk Prince.

Since you can't stop it, it's better not to stop it! Senggelinqin is a stubborn and self-righteous person. Yinggui, who is famous and commander-in-chief, cannot command it at all. Wu Chaoyue is a real governor at the same level as Yinggui. He has a prominent reputation and a tough backer. Yinggui thought with his toes and knew that he would never let Wu Chaoyue bow to him. Since his local snake could not suppress these two crossing dragons, it would be better to let them fight and be overwhelmed and generous. He hid behind him as a referee and watched the tiger fight. Instead, he was far better than being a good man who was a hard-working person. He tried hard to reconcile the conflicts and did not give it thanks.

So in less than five minutes, Yinggui quickly decided to send someone to Senggelinqin the original text of Wu Chaoyue's letter to Senggelinqin, and wrote a letter to Senggelinqin, saying that although he thought Wu Chaoyue's tactical plan also made sense, he was far away from the front line and did not know the specific situation on the battlefield, so he could not draw conclusions lightly, and asked Senggelinqin to discuss with Wu Chaoyue which tactic to suppress bandits should be adopted.

In addition, Ying Gui naturally had to write a handwritten letter to Wu Chaoyue, and also made an excuse that he could not command the front line without knowing the situation, so he also asked Wu Chaoyue to discuss what to do with Senggelinqin. Then Ying Gui put down his brush and clapped his hands, muttering: "If you like fighting, just fight. I will not care about the broken things between you. Even Prince ****** Zai can't stop you, let alone me."

Of course, Yinggui did this like throwing a torch on a powder barrel. Before Yinggui's letter was finished reading the letter from Wu Chaoyue, the monk who had not rested for two days, was immediately exploded and kicked the meal table in front of him a few feet away. He opened his mouth with a blue face and roared, "Wu Chaoyue! I **** the 18th generation of ancestors!"

He asked the reason carefully, and saw Wu Chaoyue's letter that was definitely inverted by black and white. None of the monks, including Qingqi and Zhelimu, were angry and swearing. Even the gentle Fang Yurun couldn't help but shake his head and said repeatedly: "I really didn't expect that the famous Wu Futai was such a petty person. The prince sacrificed himself to make contributions this time. He would forget that he would not appreciate it. He still remembered his past grudges and slandered the prince for being greedy for merit and playing with enemies. He had narrow abilities and narrow abilities!"

After a long period of thunderous anger, the monk prince with blood-filled eyes calmed down a little after repeated persuasion by Fang Yurun and others. When everyone asked whether to change or stop the established combat plan, our always arrogant monk prince roared, "What to change? Just fight according to the original plan! Drive Changmao to the border of Hubei. If Wu Chaoyue dares not send troops, I will immediately impeach him for misleading the military opportunity and entrusting the enemy to support the enemy!"

Because of this stubborn order from the monk, the generals and soldiers of the monk's army suffered enough and suffered enough. Although the monk's cavalry under the monk's army reached 7,000, and the number was far above the white flag cavalry of the Nian Army, it was still extremely difficult to trap the main force of the Nian Army on the open terrain of Nanyang Prefecture.

We must also praise Prince Monk. Prince Monk, who is an expert in civil war, may still have endurance in hard work and endurance. In order to intercept the traversing roads of the Nian cavalry, Prince Monk personally led the main force of the Qing cavalry to block and chase back and forth, constantly intersecting and surrounding. He only rested for less than two hours a day, and was so tired that he couldn't even grasp the reins. He could only tie his hands to the reins with a cloth belt to control the horse. As a result, it was precisely because of Prince Monk's brute force that the main force of the Nian army, who had always wanted to flee north or east, never got what he wanted. He was forced to wander to the Zanggang Township area in Tang County, which was not too far from Hubei, and gradually faced the danger of being double-teamed by Hubei Xinjun and Senggelinqin army.

In Zhao Lie's article, even though he did not receive the order from Yang Xiuqing transferred by Li Kaifang, Gong Deshu, who was very familiar with the terrain in this area, dared not go south to die. He kept trying to break through the eastern defense line of Senggelinqin and fled to the wider Runing Mansion on Tongshan Road or Maoji Road. While taking into account the northern line, Senggelinqin held these two east escape routes and never gave the Nian Army a chance to escape east. However, because the front line was too long and the troops were too dispersed, he could never give the Nian Army a fatal blow, and gradually became a stalemate.

Xiangyang is only about 300 miles away from Tang County. When the battle is stalemate, the monk Prince should have asked Wu Chaoyue for help, asking Wu Chaoyue to send troops to help him storm a fierce blow to Gong Deshu. However, with the addition of new and old grievances, the monk Prince said that he would not bow his head and ask Wu Chaoyue for help. He would rather draw troops from Ruzhou and Xuzhou in the north to help the defense and free up his troops to go south to participate in the war than open this mouth to Wu Chaoyue.

There was no need for the monk to bow his head and speak. He had long expected that the monk would insist on implementing his thankless combat plan. Wu Chaoyue had already prepared to lead the army to fight. He waited freely and freely in Xiangyang Prefecture and confirmed that the Nian Army had reached a stalemate with the monk. Wu Chaoyue left Shao Yanxuan and the Navy Battalion to assist Du Xing'a in Xiangyang to allocate food and grass military supplies to the front line. He immediately took four battalions of Hubei New Army and Cavalry Battalion to set off, crossed the province and entered Henan, and rushed to the back of the Nian Army with great momentum.

In addition, Du Xinga also sent 800 cavalry to join Wu Chaoyue in battle to help the new army in Hubei. Coincidentally, even though Wu Chaoyue did not call for someone, Du Xinga still asked Du Longa, who was good at cavalry warfare, to lead the cavalry to help Wu Chaoyue, inadvertently gave Wu Chaoyue the opportunity to get along with Du Longa for a long time.

Duolona was indeed good at taking cavalry. The cavalry he led was far behind the Wu army cavalry that had just been formed in both cavalry and experience. After crossing Zhenbei River, when he was resting on the way, the Wu army cavalry and Duolona's cavalry each sent a squad to compete in cavalry. As a result, whether it was individual cavalry or collective cavalry, the Wu army cavalry were completely abused by the Duolona's cavalry, which made Wu Chaoyue look very dull and envious. However, Duolona was also straightforward. When he learned that the Wu army cavalry was formed during the Chinese New Year this year, Duolona suddenly screamed: "Genius! Lord Futai, General Nie and General Ding under your command are really cavalry geniuses. Only in such a short time can they train cavalry like this. The last general would never be able to do it!"

His family knew about his family, and Wu Chaoyue was not proud of his brother-in-law. He said frankly: "The auditorium has been awarded. Nie Shicheng and Ding Ruchang can practice cavalry so fast because they only practice riding and not horse archery, so they make rapid progress in riding. If they were to practice riding and archery like you, they would never have such speed."

"If you don't practice archery, how will your cavalry fight?" Duolonga asked in surprise, then suddenly woke up and asked again: "Master Futai, you wouldn't have your cavalry equipped with all the revolvers you used on the Tianjin battlefield, right?"

Seeing Wu Chaoyue smile and nodding, Duolon Ah suddenly became extremely envious and said, "Master Futai is really willing to pay for money. I remember you said when you were in Tianjin that the price of that kind of foreign gun can be worth several bird guns. The cavalry of a battalion is equipped with such revolvers, which is very generous. Not to mention that all the foreign guns are equipped with such foreign guns, there is not even one."

It is indeed a love and respect from the heart that the Han people in the northwest was Duolona. Although he knew that he was likely to fight against Duolona, ​​Wu Chaoyue still asked someone to bring ten revolvers and five hundred bullets to Duolona without hesitation, and taught Duolona how to load ammunition, aiming and shooting, and daily maintenance, and taught Duolona many experiences and experiences using revolvers.

Like Ding Ruchang, who could kill his boss for a revolver, he received a generous gift with a casual word. Duolona was also very surprised and grateful to Wu Chaoyue. However, after carefully fiddling with the Colt revolver, Duolona frowned and said to Wu Chaoyue with a bullet: "Master Futai, this bullet is wrapped in paper. If it rains heavily during the battle, what should your cavalry do?"

"It can only be used to lift the knife and the twister to cut each other." Wu Chaoyue replied with a wry smile, and said helplessly: "I hope it won't rain heavily during this period, otherwise, not to mention that my cavalry is useless, even my infantry combat effectiveness will be affected."

"Master Futai, Shumo will say something unlucky." Duolona said carefully: "It's almost time to Fuxun, and the rain in Nanyang is about to start more."

Wu Chaoyue did not answer, but looked up at the sky with increasing clouds, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "This is also the key reason why I must seize the time to send troops. This battle must be decided quickly, and I have to pray for God's blessing. Don't rain suddenly during the war."

After hearing what Wu Chaoyue said, Duolonga, who also respects Wu Chaoyue, quickly seized the opportunity to show his loyalty and took the initiative to say: "Don't worry, if it really rains heavily during the battle, let the cavalry led by the generals, who can fight hand-to-hand combat and share the pressure for you."

Duolona may have had a crow's mouth, and it happened to be on the same night. It was indeed raining heavily in the Nanyang area. Although the Wu army soldiers were well-trained and paid special attention to the protection of ammunition, the firing gun and the revolver's paper bun bullets were not damp. However, the muddy and poor road surface caused great trouble to the Hubei army's marching speed, delaying Wu Chaoyue's marching speed and giving the Nian Army more time to respond.

Gong Deshu, the leader of the white flag of the Nian Army, was far beyond Wu Chaoyue's expectations. After receiving the news that the Qing army in Hubei was approaching Tang County, Gong Deshu did not seize the time to escape with all his strength, but instead divided the infantry brigade to fight south, in fact, he took the opportunity to escape from the burden of infantry and facilitate the main force of the cavalry to escape.

The situation of Gong Deshu's division of troops was first discovered by Senggelinqin, who was close to him. Although Senggelinqin knew very well that the division of troops to pursue the Nian Army infantry at this time would definitely be able to join forces with Wu Chaoyue to win a great victory, and could also help Wu Chaoyue get rid of the entanglement and rush to Tang County to reinforce. However, Senggelinqin was angry, not only did not seize the time to send troops, but also did not even give Wu Chaoyue a single call. She deliberately asked Wu Chaoyue's scout to explore the enemy situation on his own and did not give Wu the army too much time to respond. At the same time, the Prince of Monk also seized the time to dispatch troops and dispatch generals, assembled cavalry reserves to prepare for a decisive battle with the Nian Army cavalry.

The consequence of doing evil is that evil will be retribution. The Wu army scout just discovered that a large number of Nian Army infantry were approaching the self-defense army. There was another heavy rain in the Nanyang area, and then it was raining again, and it was raining all night. Wu Chaoyue, who had never expected that he would encounter heavy rain for several days, complained loudly, but there was no way, and he could only order against his will to stop moving temporarily, station troops in the high ground to prepare for war, and also built some field defense fortifications for the first time to avoid the impact of rain on the self-defense army as much as possible.

However, it is still good. Although the number of infantry brigades of the Nian Army exceeds ten thousand people, the mountains and fields are densely packed, and it looks very scary, but in fact it is poorly equipped and messy. Only a few elite troops can maintain a strict queue. When the two armies are connected, they stand at the front with pretty good swords and guns.

The rainwater had a great impact on the Wu army's weapons. Of course, Wu Chaoyue didn't want to start a war as soon as possible and wanted to wait for the rain to stop. However, what made Wu Chaoyue laugh and cry was that the Nian Army didn't know what medicine was wrong. When he first contacted the Wu army, he couldn't wait to attack the Wu army's position. Wu Chaoyue had no choice but to lament that he had to command the army to fight.

The outcome of the war was no doubt at all. Even if the firing guns and revolvers in the hands of the Wu army were unable to be used in large quantities for a long time in the rain, it was still possible to use them occasionally. At the same time, the grenade launchers, grenade bullets, breech guns and other weapons in the hands of the Wu army were not afraid of rain. The large and small artillery shells and grenade bullets exploded one after another in the Nian army stormtroopers without having to fight hand-to-hand combat. The Wu army soldiers had already blown up the soldiers of the Nian army to howl and run away with their heads in their arms. Then, Duolonga, who dared to fight in close combat, attacked with Qing cavalry, and immediately rushed to massacre the defeated soldiers of the Nian army like a duck. The mobs behind the scenes collapsed without fighting, and fled in the blink of an eye. Duolonga led the Qing cavalry to chase for more than 20 miles and achieved great success.

After the war, he was very puzzled that the Nian Army dared to take the initiative to attack the defense positions of the self-defense. To be cautious, Wu Chaoyue arranged for soldiers to go to the battlefield to find several Nian Army soldiers who were injured and unable to escape, and personally interrogated them for the reason for the charge. As a result, the answer made Wu Chaoyue shocked and several prisoners confessed: "It was our He Daqi's order to charge. He Daqi said that the foreign guns and bullets in your hands were wrapped in paper, and they were afraid of rain like bird guns. They could not fire when they encountered water. We are sure to win when fighting with you in the rain."

"How did your He Ziqiu's big flag know that our gun is afraid of rain?" Wu Chaoyue asked quickly, "Whoever can tell me the reason, I will spare anyone who can't die, release it immediately and give it a reward!"

Unfortunately, the prisoners were not lucky enough to be released on the spot. They all shook their heads and said they didn't know. Wu Chaoyue's face was gloomy. After a moment, Wu Chaoyue suddenly shouted, "I won't go to Tang County, go back to Xinye to station!"

"Weiting, are you too cautious?" Zhao Liewen asked carefully: "The continuous rain has a great impact on us, but it is impossible for this rain to keep falling?"

"The enemy already knows our weaknesses, be careful."

Wu Chaoyue whispered: "Don't forget that half of our four infantry battalions are recruits who have never been on the battlefield, and the same is true for cavalry. When we are forced to fight by bayonet, we only have two battalions and Duolonga's cavalry, and the troops are too scarce. Moreover, the continuous rain is the most suitable for night attacks. If we are sneak attacked by the Nian Army in the wild, then we will be done. It is a bit embarrassing to retreat to Xinye, but it is better to be embarrassed than to lose our lives."

Knowing that Wu Chaoyue is actually a timid and greedy person and fear of death at his core, Zhao Liewen did not insist, so he could only nod his head to agree. At that moment, Wu Chaoyue immediately ordered the recall of Duolonga's army. He was too lazy to clean the battlefield, so he immediately took the army to retreat to Xinye. Fortunately, Duolonga was also very obedient. After knowing Wu Chaoyue's difficulties, he immediately obediently followed his orders and retreated with him without causing trouble for Wu Chaoyue.

He had been observing the movements of the Wu army from afar. After learning that Wu Chaoyue did not kill all the Nian Army infantry like chopping melons and vegetables and suddenly retreated to Xinye, Senggelinqin was extremely puzzled and suspected that Wu Chaoyue had taken the wrong medicine. In the end, Qingqi, who had also dealt with Wu Jun, suddenly woke up and shouted at the Prince Monk: "Prince, rain! It's because of the continuous rain! The bullets in Wu Chaoyue's foreign guns were wrapped in paper, and he was most afraid of rain, so he could not exert his combat effectiveness and did not dare to continue to march. He could only retreat to Xinye to shelter from the rain!"

Suddenly, he slapped his head with great enlightenment. The monk first ridiculed Wu Chaoyue for being today. However, after thinking for a while, the monk immediately shouted: "Mr. Youshi, immediately send a letter to the magistrate of Xinye County for me, telling him that without the permission of the imperial edict or the governor of Henan, Hubei troops will never be allowed to station in the city!"

"Prince, is this..." Fang Yurun smiled bitterly and wanted to speak but stopped.

"Is that right?" said the monk prince grinningly: "The army of other provinces crossed the border and could not enter the city without the permission of the court or the governor of the province. This is the rule of the Qing Dynasty! I reminded the Xinye County Magistrate to implement national laws. What's wrong with it?"

Knowing the bearish temper of the monk, Fang Yurun dared not talk much, so he could only pick up his pen and write a book and send a quick horse to Xinye to the county magistrate there. The monk laughed even happier and said to himself: "As long as the Nian bandits can be smarter, seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fight you. With your ability, it may not be a big problem to protect the camp army, but the casualties must be large, and the Nian bandits must also pay some price."

"When you fight with the Nian Bandits, both sides are injured, haha, little man, you have today too!"
