Before July of the first year of tongzhi, before the arrival of Katsuho, Dolonga, and Lei Zhengxuan, Guanzhong could be said to be full of flames and anti-kings, which was the time when the rebellion was most rampant.
More than 20 prefectures and counties were besieged, including Gaoling and other counties.
They controlled the vast number of market towns and villages in Guanzhong, the local government of Shaanxi was trapped in a few isolated cities, and the local government in Guanzhong was almost paralyzed.
At the end of July, jiang Tailing and some of the Taiping army troops of the Western Expedition sneaked to the area of Luonan, Sansipo, and Sanyaosi.
The military situation in Shangzhou was tight, and the imperial court dispatched the deputy capital Tong Xiang'en, the deputy general Wang Zuochen, the staff general Liang Shishen, the guerrilla Quanzong, Zhang Zhanbiao, and the garrison Ding Wenwen to intercept the troops and horses.
Duolong Atuo Bauhinia Guan's army, together with the deputy capital Wendler Kexi and the deputy general Tao Maolin, attacked Jiang Tailing.
Dorona, Tao Maolin needless to say, that Windrakesi is also a member of the xiao general.
The three Haojie served Jiang Tailing, the old Jiang was really overwhelmed, this person belongs to the "Fu General", has never suffered a heavy blow, as long as it is called "Fu General" must have a trait, that is, run fast, good at seeing the wind and rudder, good at preserving strength, and Jiang Tailing is such a battlefield "glass egg", adhering to the tradition of the twist army to fight "downwind battle".
At first glance, these people we can't afford to provoke, the old brothers ran away, a pole to Lushi County, this is in the leap August fourth of the fourth month.
This part of the Twist Army was united with the Taiping Army of the Western Expedition, and they ran away on their fast horses, but they could bring calamity to that part of the Western Expeditionary Army.
On the river beach outside Wuguan, Dolonga annihilated this western expeditionary force.
After solving Jiang Tailing, Duolong'a sent Enxiang's troops to the provincial capital of Xi'an to assist Shengbao.
Let's come back and look at Katsuho
Now that it was long summer, it was nearly early autumn, suitable for war, Shengbao went to Xianyang and Lei Zhengxuan to jointly plan the siege of Majiapu and Sujiagou, the two rebels' heavy troops, and then went to relieve the siege of Jingyang and Fengxiang.
On August 15, Shengbao and Lei Zhengxuan led an army to suppress the Xianyang rebels.
On the 18th, the officers and troops were raised on the fifth day, Lei Zhengxuan's troops were from the left, Cheng Lu led the battalions from the right, and Wule Xing'a and Song Jingshi led the horse team to meet.
A mile from Xianyang, more than 20,000 rebels were seen assembling in resistance.
These people were all assembled from Gaoling, Jingyang, Shahe, and other places to resist the encirclement and suppression of the officers and troops.
At this point, they still didn't know that Ray was rolling badly.
Lei Zhengxuan and Cheng Ludu attacked forward, and the rebel camp was not chaotic at all, but instead allocated men and horses to encircle the rear road of the officers and soldiers.
The officers and soldiers attacked in three directions, and the rapid guns and artillery attacked, and the Ulchen Ama team directly entered the middle of the rebels.
After four hours of fighting, the two sides could not stand each other.
Song Jingshi saw the timing and led the horse team to attack the rebels from both wings, killing many leaders on the spot.
That Song Jingshi was a rebel armed force that Shengbao had taken from the Battlefield of Shandong, and was very familiar with the combat routines of the rebels, and the moment was a fatal attack, and the rebels were cut off from the center, unable to take care of each other, and began to retreat from the battlefield.
Song Jingshi and Enxiang chased up from the left side and the other from the right wing, which scattered the retreating rebels, and Katsuho ordered the infantry to attack.
The officers and soldiers pursued to the outside of the rebel fortress, and the defenders inside the fort resisted, firing muskets and artillery intensively, stubbornly resisting.
The officers and soldiers occupied the commanding heights outside the fort and fired rockets and spray canisters into the fort, which could not be attacked for a long time.
At this time, the artillery of the officers and soldiers arrived and fired intensively into the fort with Western flower cannons and gunpowder shells, and suddenly the fire in the fort was soaring, the sound of people was boiling, and the rebels guarding the fort fled one after another.
Taking advantage of the situation, the officers and troops rushed forward, killed hundreds of rebels guarding the wall on the spot, and attacked Zhangjiabao, Yaowangdong, Haijia Village, and Bianjia Village at the same time, killing a total of more than 3,000 rebels, killing more than 3,000 rebels, more than 10 large and small leaders, capturing more than 400 people, capturing eleven cannons, ordnance, weights, gunpowder, and burning all surrounding fortresses.
The next morning, the rebels again entangled five or six thousand people and came to take revenge.
The officers and horses infantry brigade intercepted head-on, the rebels formed a phalanx, surrounded by musketeers, but also steady and steady, the horse team continued to attack the officers and soldiers, and the infantry phalanx followed behind.
The officers and soldiers did not expect that the other side's progress was so rapid, it must have been pointed out by high-ranking people, their tactics and playing style were completely copied from the officers and soldiers, and this battle suddenly became a state of glue, and neither side could continue to move forward.
During the Xi'an Defensive War, Wang Xijue of the once besieged Ningxia Green Camp had already surrendered en masse after the Battle of Liucunbao, which was also the first wave of surrender in the Guanlong Battlefield.
Wang Xijue was born in Yunnan, was a Wujue, was transferred by the imperial court to the Ningxia Green Camp as a garrison, when he was in Yunnan, he had already secretly communicated with Ren Wu, HeMingtang and others, this time taking the opportunity to come to Guanzhong, but also preparing for a counterattack.
After he entered the rebel system, he timely guided the tactics and tactics of Bai Yanhu and others, and under his guidance, the overall strength of the rebel army was greatly improved, changing the previous group fighting mode and becoming an armed force comparable to the regular army.
This time it was his debut, and he played very well, but for a while it made Katsuho very uncomfortable.
Just as the two sides were fighting, a general with a spear rushed from the flank to the rebels, followed by more than a thousand officers and soldiers, and this spear-wielding spear spear took the lead in charging with the Shaanxi Admiral Lei Zhengxuan, who led the battalion commander Gao Fu, Du Sima Fengquan, and the deposed prefect Delin to come, forming a siege of the rebels from both sides.
He led the soldiers of the Heilongjiang and Jilin horse teams who came to help from the northeast.
The rebels fled for more than thirty miles, and the officers and soldiers followed closely behind, destroying several rebel nests along the way, killing five or six hundred enemy horse teams and more than 2,000 infantrymen, and capturing a lot of heavy grain and grass.
The officers and troops were about to return to the camp, when the Ningshan Department and Gong Hengling hurriedly arrived and prayed: "After the Sichuan bandit Guo Dao dao fell from Zhuxi to Pingping, he sneaked into the Fire Ridge of Ningshan, and the battalion officer Liu Daqing lost the battle and retreated to the hall city."
Lei Zhengxuan sent his deputy general Wang Zuochen (王佐臣) to lead the mabu teams to pursue Guo Daodao.
On the sixth day of the first month of September in the first year of tongzhi, at Heishuiyu in The Dragon, Wang Zuochen and Guo Daodao met, and the officers and soldiers waited for work, occupying the commanding heights and ridges on both sides, forming an absolute firepower superiority over Guo Daodao's department, and the rebels were almost completely annihilated, and the remnants of the river fled westward.
Officers and soldiers followed the chase and built a pontoon bridge.
On the seventh day of the first month, most of the officers and soldiers crossed the river and chased them to Xiaojia Village, coinciding with a militia of 2,000 people led by Shi Peng, Military Gong Ma Dechang, and Yusheng Ma Xi, who had been dismissed from their posts.
The officers and civilians met and jointly pursued the remnants of Guo Daodao.
Guo Daodao fought in heishuiyu, and more than 6,000 people in his unit had already lost nearly 3,000 people, and the rest were also birds of fright.
The official Wang Zuochen led the army at Qinghualing, and the militia regiments were in qijiazhai, and soldiers were arranged to intercept and kill along the way.
On the ninth day of the first month, Guo Daodao broke through all the way to the town of Gaodian in Yuxian County, and the people and horses were extremely tired, and the probe reported that the officers and troops still had a day to go before they could arrive, so their spirits were slightly relaxed, and the whole army rested on the spot for a while.
Wang Zuochen was the most quick in his actions, urging his headquarters and militia groups to follow him closely and besiege the town of Gaodian.
The officers and horses first launched an attack, the infantry followed, and after an hour of fighting, Guo Daodao was killed more than 2,000 people, and more than 1,000 people of scattered bandits fled into the mangy mountains of Baoji and Fengxian counties, wanting to return to the river from the mountain path, and Guo Daodao was also among them.
Wang Zuochen flew to the Sichuan garrison and Mao Zhenshou of YangXian county to intercept the troops, and then Wang Zuochen rushed back to Xianyang at night.
The rebels, who had suffered repeated defeats, took advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers were divided to pursue Guo Daodao, and entangled the people and horses of the East Road Brigade, with a total of 40,000 people, gathered at Majiapu, intending to take revenge.
After Wang Zuochen returned to Xianyang, Lei Zhengxuan was urgently transferred to the tent, and sent the Heilongjiang Chengshun Horse Team, the general Ma Sheng, the deputy general Tan Yulong and the Jing'an Camp Horse Infantry team to Xianyang on September 11 to attack the rebels.
The main force of the rebel army, Tunzha Biyingyuan (that is, the former site of the Xiaoliu Camp in the Han Dynasty), stretched for more than 20 miles from east to west.
The officers and soldiers marched separately, forcing them into the enemy position with guns and artillery, and the two wings were surrounded by horse teams, and the two sides fought fiercely for more than six hours, the rebels were killed by more than a thousand people, and they retreated in defeat, and the officers and soldiers returned to the camp.
In the early morning of the next day, the officers and soldiers built a pontoon bridge, and the rebels sent troops to shoot at the officers and soldiers on the other side of the river to stop the officers and soldiers.
At five o'clock on the fifteenth day, the officers and soldiers launched an attack.
Lei Zhengxuan divided the whole army into two parts.
He personally led the mabu armies to line up on the east, south, and north sides of Majiapu to snipe to help the enemy.
One was led by the general Ma Sheng and Liu Jingfang to attack the rebel lair on the west, south and north sides.
The Majiapu wall was high and deep, and the firepower of the guard was strong, and the rebels frequently fired artillery at the walls to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers.
The rebels who came to the aid came from Jingyang and Sujiagou in droves, numbering more than 10,000 people, and were held in Pumazhai, Renjiazui, Mawangchang and other places.
Reinforcements came out of the three divisions, fierce and unusual, and pounced on Lei Zhengxuan's chinese army, and the officers and horses and infantry teams were stationed in place and only attacked with guns and artillery, and the rebels fell to the front of the line, but still bravely charged forward without fear of death.
The rebels sent teams of horses to the front to shoot at the spurt, causing heavy casualties to the officers and soldiers.
Lei Zhengxuan sent Ulxing'a, Song Jingshi, Liu Xiaozhong and other generals to lead the horse team to attack in two ways, and about a moment later, the rebel horse team was defeated.
The officers and soldiers immediately rushed to the death, and the rebels who came to the aid fled the fort in a hurry.
The defenders of the fort saw that the reinforcements were defeated, so they strengthened their defensive forces and repelled several attacks by the officers and soldiers.
The artillery battalion hurriedly dispatched Western flowering short cannons to the fort wall and fired several shells at the fort wall, and the Majiapu fort wall was collapsed for a while.
Ma Sheng immediately led the soldiers, cut open the deer fence, pounced on the edge of the trench, erected a cloud ladder on all sides, and put the long ladder on the place where the fort wall was blown up, and the officers and soldiers climbed on the ants, and cast rocket launchers in the rain of bullets and bullets of the defenders, and the artillery of the officers and soldiers outside the fort was closely bombarded, and the rebels inside the fort were in chaos.
The officers and soldiers opened the fort gate, the brigade swarmed in, the rebels could not resist and fell to their knees on the ground and surrendered, and the rest of the recalcitrant elements and the officers and soldiers engaged in street battles.
After an hour, all the enemies in the street battle were wiped out, the corpses of the rebels piled up in the streets, some of the rebels escaped over the wall and were searched and killed by the officers outside the fort, and the lair of the Majiapu rebels was conquered.
At this time, the time was still early, and Lei Zhengxuan ordered the rebels to sweep east along the way, so he attacked and destroyed Puma Village, Chama Village, RenJiazui, Yejia Village, Mawangchang, Mujiachuan, and other places.
On that day (September 15 of the first year of tongzhi), a total of seven rebel lairs were destroyed, killed, killed, killed more than 10,000 rebels, captured more than 100 people, captured more than 1,000 large vehicles, countless mules and horses, and more than 20 cannons.
Countless guns, flags, gunpowder, clothing, and rice grain rescued more than a thousand civilians who had been plundered.
The west road throat is unobstructed, Sujiagou and Jingyang road are opened.
Lei Zhengxuan fought this big victory and was about to return the triumphant song, but he was not afraid of death to find trouble.
More than 10,000 rebels from Cangtou in Weinan arrived from the north of the Baiqi battalion and surrounded Lei Zhengxuan, who had just finished the battle, from all sides.
Lei Zhengxuan ordered the Chenglu Overseers to arrange a phalanx, surround all captured and civilians in the formation, throw muskets at the rebels, and slowly advance.
The rebels repeatedly failed in their repeated charge against the officers and soldiers, but they still resisted death and continued to harass the officers and soldiers from all sides.
Ulxing'a, Song Jingshi, Gao Fu, and Yongqing led a team of horses to raid the rebels, and the horse teams of the two sides fought fiercely, and Ulxing'a was hit by a spear.
Lei Zhengxuan commanded the troops to stabilize their positions, suppressing the opponent's fire with foreign guns in the front, flanking the horse team to launch a short attack on the rebels, and sending people to Katsuho for help.
Shengbao sent the generals Wang Yongsheng, Wen Lin, and Dusi Dong Youfu to lead an army to Ceying to guerrilla attack Li Gaoqi, and the deputy general Tan Yulong attacked the rebels from the rear.
As soon as the reinforcements arrived, the rebels could not resist and began to retreat, the officers and soldiers pursued and killed for more than ten miles, and the rebels retreated to Changtuo Bay and Sujiagou.
That night, the officers and soldiers arrived at the Baiqi camp and learned that the rebels were still trying to seize the Baiqi camp and block the way of the officers and soldiers' march.
On the evening of the seventeenth day, the officers and horses quietly circled around the camp of the rebels in Changtuo Bay after four drums of horse titles and hooves wrapped in soft cloth, and shouted in.
The officers and soldiers killed the killers, and the rebels were beheaded in the camp except for some of the red stripes that escaped.
All the ordnance was surrendered, and the horses returned victoriously.
The officers and troops were planning to attack Sujiagou on a large scale, and Shengbao received Jingyang for help, and Jingyang was besieged for several months, and the situation was urgent.
He then ordered The Viceroy Cheng Lu to take the deputy general Tan Yulong, the general Zhao Dezheng, the guerrilla Xiang Shangda, and the garrison Xu Liesong to aid Sanyuan at night and cut the enemy's rear road.
He also sent the deputy capital Ulxing'a to lead the general Liu Qi, guerrilla Ma Delin, garrison Liu Xiaozhong, military merit Lei Fengming and others to Jingyang to break the siege.
Ling Lei was stationed in Xianyang
Shengbao consulted with Ying Tanghui in the provincial capital on the matter of raising wages.
