At the same time, Shi Dakai commanded the Western Expeditionary Army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which also conquered Luzhou and surrounded Wuchang one after another, and fought with the Hunan Army led by Zeng Guofan in Yuezhou, Xiangtan, and Jinggang. After the defeat, they defeated the Hunan Army in Hukou and Jiujiang The navy took advantage of the victory to counterattack and captured the three towns of Wuhan.

When Zhou You and Lin Fengxiang won the capital, Zeng Guofan was also sending troops from Jiangxi to rescue Wuchang, which attracted Shi Dakai to lead his troops to the west, defeated the Hunan army in Xianning and Chongyang, and took advantage of the emptiness to advance into Jiangxi, quickly sweeping 7 prefectures and more than 40 counties. Zeng Guofan was besieged in Nanchang.

Shi Dakai is indeed good at fighting, but although Zeng Guofan is a civil servant, he is also quite talented in command, and his ability to train troops and coordinate the battle situation is also very good.

Relying on the Hunan Army formed in just one or two years, it was able to fight each other with the Taiping Army without being crushed and defeated by Shi Dakai, and it was able to stabilize the battle situation in Hujiang, which is enough to show Zeng Guofan's ability .

Just when the Taiping Army and the Hunan Army were fighting in the lake and Jiangxi, news came that the capital was captured by Zhou You and Lin Fengxiang, and Emperor Xianfeng vomited blood and died. Shi Dakai and other Taiping Army generals were surprised and excited. Zeng Guofan was in a daze, did the Qing Dynasty die?

Knowing that once the news spread, the morale of the Hunan army would be greatly affected. Zeng Guofan also lacked the confidence and courage to garrison Nanchang, so he quickly led his troops to break through and retreat to Hunan.

However, when Zeng Guofan led the troops back to Hunan, they were surrounded by wars in southern Hunan. The Guangxi Datong Army led by Zhou You, led by Luo Dagang and Su Sanniang, went northward and entered Hunan, and captured Yongzhou and Baoqing one after another. Refers to news from Xiangtan and Changsha.

Immediately afterwards, the Datong Army quickly besieged Xiangtan, and Zeng Guofan, who hastily withdrew to Hunan, wanted to rescue Xiangtan, but in the First World War, facing the well-equipped Datong Army, he was defeated and forced to return to Changsha.

Almost at the same time that the Hunan Army retreated to Changsha, Luo Dagang also led the Datong Army to defeat Xiangtan in one go.There is no way, the Datong army with the momentum of great victory is in full swing, and with the help of various firearms and artillery, attacking a Xiangtan where the main force of the Qing army is not stationed is naturally within reach!

After taking Xiangtan, tens of thousands of Datong troops took advantage of the victory to advance to Changsha, and quickly besieged Changsha..

After Zeng Guofan broke through and retreated back to Hunan, Shi Dakai did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it, because at this time, with the fall of Wuhu, Zhenjiang was in danger, and Tianjing was increasingly threatened by the two camps of the Qing army in the north and south. The Western Expedition battlefield dispatched troops to rescue Tianjing.

After returning to the army, Shi Dakai joined forces with King Yan Qin Rigang to break through Jiangbei Camp and Jiangnan Camp one after another, and reoccupied Yangzhou, which had been recaptured by the Qing army before. Beijing's threats.

In the north, Zhou You and Lin Fengxiang had occupied the capital for a few months. The troops led by Li Kaifang also blossomed everywhere in Shandong and Hebei, and even burned to Henan, northern Anhui, and northern Jiangsu like a prairie fire. As a result, the large cities under the jurisdiction of the local troops and officials of the Qing army fell into isolation.

Under the 'siege' of the peasant rebel army, Li Kaifang, who led the elite troops to the north, also teamed up with Lin Fengxiang to quickly break through Tongzhou, captured Shengbao and Seng Gelinqin alive, and took Tianjin, sweeping Hebei...

In the meantime, although the Qing troops stationed in Fengtian and Rehe went south to recover the capital, they were all defeated by Lin Fengxiang, and Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang also divided their troops towards Rehe and Rehe after they captured Tongzhou and solved Shengbao and Seng Gelinqin. Going to Fengtian, he wants to take advantage of Rehe and Fengtian when they are empty, and occupy these two bridgeheads entering the northeast in one fell swoop.

Of course, Zhou You still can't care about the Northeast area now!At present, the most important thing is to quickly take down Henan, Hubei and the entire land of Hunan, so that the people under his command and the territory will be connected together, and the Central Plains and Jiangnan will be obtained first, so that they can sweep the southeast and southwest, and then win the northeast and northwest Dingding world.

In the Forbidden City, it is the season of warm spring and flowers blooming. It is approaching summer and the weather is getting hotter.Early in the morning, the weather was relatively cool, and as soon as Zhou You came out of Chuxiu Palace, refreshed, he saw Lin Fengxiang rushing over.

"Prince Fu, something has happened!" Seeing Lin Fengxiang's serious expression, he seemed a little flustered, Zhou You raised his eyebrows as soon as he opened his mouth, and then frowned and asked, "What's the matter? Don't worry, speak slowly!"

"News came from Tianjing that the East King is dead!" Lin Fengxiang continued, "It was the North King Wei Changhui who led the men. The East King and tens of thousands of his subordinates were killed, and the East King's mansion was littered with corpses!"

"Eastern King is dead?" Zhou You was a little surprised when he heard it. Although he knew that Yang Xiuqing would die at the hands of Wei Changhui, he didn't expect him to die so quickly. It seemed that he died earlier than in the play!

It seems that with their breakthrough of the capital and the collapse of the Qing court, it also had some impact on the situation in Tianjing!

"Why was the Eastern King killed? Was it Wei Changhui's rebellion?" Zhou You frowned and asked back, and Lin Fengxiang was slightly taken aback when he heard it, and said with a slightly unnatural expression: "No, it is said that the Eastern King took credit for his pride. , arrogant and domineering, and even forced the king of heaven to confer him as 'long live' so..."

Zhou You couldn't help sneering when he heard the words: "So, in fact, it is the king of heaven who wants to kill the king of the east? Is that right? Before he got the world, he started killing each other. Moreover, he killed so many people at once. Wei Changhui is really Do you obey your orders? Or do you want to take the opportunity to eradicate dissidents and replace him with the Eastern King?"

"This..." Lin Fengxiang's expression became more complicated when he heard Zhou You's words, and he was speechless for a while.Why doesn't he understand these principles?It's just a little unacceptable, I didn't expect Hong Xiuquan and Wei Changhui to do this.

"Suicide! This Wei Changhui is also an idiot with no vision. He killed so many people at once, which will definitely arouse public outrage. He wants to replace the Eastern King, but since the Kingdom of Heaven established its capital in Tianjing, he has been Responsible for the defense of Tianjing, he has never fought any real battles, and he is not as capable of handling government affairs as the Eastern King, who in the kingdom of heaven can obey him?" Zhou You shook his head and sighed.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou You couldn't help sighing again: "Look! I'm afraid Wei Changhui will follow in the footsteps of the Eastern King in a short time. Is all this really what the Heavenly King wants to see? If the Heavenly King kills Wei Changhui , How can King Yi not be sad when the rabbit dies and the fox, and be separated from the kingdom of heaven? Self-destruction of the Great Wall is really self-destruction of the Great Wall!"

"Fu Wang, you mean, this... all of this is the Heavenly King..." Hearing this, Lin Fengxiang couldn't help but change his expression after thinking about it.

"Okay, it's meaningless for us to be suspicious here. Just wait and see! Next, time will give us the correct answer," Zhou You waved his hands.

Lin Fengxiang, who hesitated to speak, finally nodded helplessly, and then said: "Fu Wang, what do you mean, we will continue to fight independently outside, and sit and watch the development of the situation in Tianjing?"

"Yes, the situation in the world is now clear. The Qing court has become a rootless grassland. King Yi and King Qin Rigang have successively broken the Jiangnan and Jiangbei camps. The threat of Tianjing is no longer there. The next step is to see how capable they are. Expanded," Zhou You nodded and said, "And we also want to take Henan, the hinterland of the Central Plains, as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Lin Fengxiang, who nodded slightly in agreement, couldn't help but look at the Chuxiu Palace behind Zhou You, and said with a little hesitation: "Fu Wang, the Heavenly King has long urged us to send the Qing royal family, family members and dignitaries to Tianjing. Look at this..."
