The battlefield is changing rapidly.

Sun Hongji, Li Shiji, Zhao Guangrong and other three Tongzhou Wei generals did not fail in their mission, sacrificed a group of death squads, and successfully captured Lengshui Pass within half a day.

The rapid change of ownership here almost had a decisive effect on the entire Nanchuan battle situation.

A few miles away, Chen Ce was riding on a horse, and when he saw the luxury army stop advancing, he frowned, this situation was not right.

The information I got earlier was that Gao Chongming had gathered a large army and rushed towards him from the front.

But now he roughly estimated that the luxury army in front of him was less than 20,000 horses in the three positions combined, and the cavalry was even less.

Liu Yuanbin also looked solemn, the rebels could never have only this strength.

Although this was his first time participating in a large-scale battle as a cavalry commander, he had always been keen, and he had already sensed that there was an uneasy atmosphere on the battlefield.

"General, the commander on the other side is a chief, and Yu Chongming didn't show up, I'm afraid we will fall for the scheme."

Chen Ce didn't look back, and muttered, "Where is Your Majesty?" ”

"News two quarters of an hour ago, Your Majesty has already camped on Gangqiu with his pro-army, and Huang Degong is guarding him."

"Well, I'm relieved to have him here." Chen Ce understood this Yulin man, and let go of his worries a little, but asked again:

"Qi Jin on the left, isn't there any news?"

Liu Yuanbin shook his head.

"The last time I heard was a quarter of an hour ago."

"That's not right..."

Chen Ce was also afraid that the officials and troops would be tricked, and these rebels, because they were familiar with the terrain of Shuzhong, often waited for work, and suddenly set up an ambush, making the officers and soldiers unable to defend themselves.

Just thinking about it, a fast horse came from the rear, but it was the emperor's imperial camp Han general who came, due to special circumstances, the person who came just made a fist salute on the horse, and said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty said that it is necessary to build a lookout tower on the post, first, to boost morale, and second, to facilitate the overall scheduling."

As soon as General Dahan's voice fell, he turned around and left, and just ran a few steps, but turned his horse's head again, turned back, and said:

"Your Majesty also said that when there is a war in various places, there is no need to ask the imperial camp, from the chief soldier to the governor of the left, down to the generals and thousands of generals, you can act cheaply!"

Hearing this, Chen Ce felt more confident in his heart, and said loudly: "Please tell Your Majesty that there will be no problems with the right wing." ”

At this time, there was movement on the other side.

The drums sounded in front of them, but it was the local chieftain with more than 20,000 extravagant troops, who suddenly advanced in the shouting, and they regularly slapped their swords and guns on their shields, and their momentum was not weak.

"Roar! Roar! Roar! ”

The rebels gradually approached with the sound of drums and shouts, and many officers and soldiers became nervous, at this time, a pacesetter flew out of Chen Ce's rear formation.

Soon, Liu Yuanbin, who got the order, led thousands of cavalry to meet him slightly, took a waiting posture, and blocked in front of the artillery battalion that was building a position.

Seeing that the officers and soldiers had only separated a few thousand cavalry from the formation and stepped forward for a while, they stopped advancing, and the chieftain who led the troops was also puzzled.

The rocky beach was wide enough for tens of thousands of troops to line up here, and the trickle of water flowing over the rocky beach was not conducive to the running of men and horses.

Most of the cavalry of the luxury army were mules and donkeys collected from various places, but the officers and soldiers were excellent war horses.

The rocky beach formations were able to neutralize their cavalry advantage.

Thinking of this, the chief looked at the familiar terrain around him, and suddenly had confidence in his heart, and sneered a few times, these officers and soldiers will know how powerful the stone beach is in a while.

As the two armies got closer and closer, Chen Ce also received feedback from Liu Yuanbin, that is, the terrain of the rocky beach was not conducive to the cavalry attack.

When Chen Ce heard this, he pondered.

It is surrounded by mountains on both sides, with rocky beaches and streams in the middle, and there is not a single tree or mound, so it is indeed impossible to give full play to its cavalry advantage.

But when he thought about it, he smiled slightly.

Immediately, Chen Ce immediately sent pacesetters and gave Liu Yuanbin an order to immediately attack the rebels on the west side of the rocky beach, asking them not to establish a foothold there.

He decided to use Liu Yuanbin's cavalry as bait to lure some rebels to the west side of the rocky beach and divide and surround them.

As for the rebels' wishful thinking, Chen Ce also understood.

Thinking of this, he sneered a few times.

Although Yu Chongming is familiar with the terrain, he is smart this time.

As far as the terrain on the rocky beach is concerned, although it is inconvenient for his own cavalry to attack, the rebels on the opposite side are also very vulnerable to being killed and wounded by guns.

Obviously, Gao Chongming made a mistake.

Although he made a sufficient analysis of the advance of the officers and troops in various places, he missed a key link -- firearms.

In such a terrain, Chen Ce, who has rich combat experience, knows that his cavalry is useless, but firearms can exert their maximum power.

Since the cavalry is useless, why not make sacrifices and use it as bait to divide and destroy the rebels?

As soon as the pacesetters left, the rebels began to approach the center, and the two armies gradually converged.

As soon as they entered the firing range of the self-generated birds, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly sounded on the official and military positions.

But it was the more than 2,000 brave guards who had already begun to shoot volleys.

The terrain on the rocky beach made it not so easy for the rebels to dodge or fend off these flying buckshots.

After the casualties, the rebels were naturally unwilling to sit idly by, and soon divided a part of the archers to shoot at the firecrackers.

There were casualties in the positions of the officers and soldiers, but in comparison, the number of rebels killed and wounded was several times greater than that of the officers and soldiers.

These autogenous birds, after the improvement of Bi Maokang and others, not only have a sui trigger device, which will not be affected by the weather, but even the power has increased a lot.

The rebels continued to release a rain of arrows into the positions of officers and soldiers, but their rain of arrows was nothing more than a drizzle compared to the Jurchens in Liaodi.

The officers and men were well armoured, and the casualties caused by the rebels' bows and arrows were very limited.

The chieftain found that he could not shoot at all, and after having an unforgettable impression of the power of the firearms of the officers and soldiers, he quickly ordered his subordinates to march forward.

At the same time, he also divided a part of his men and horses, turned to the cavalry of Liu Yuanbin's army to the west, and rushed over.

Despite this, the rebels in the middle were still much larger than Chen Ce's Chinese army.

Chen Ce was riding on a horse, and he could even see from the disdainful face of the chief that he wanted to use the advantage of numbers to fight a decisive battle directly in the middle lane.

Thinking about it, the chieftain also knew in his heart that when everyone fought together, he was not afraid of the sharp guns of the officials and soldiers.

When he saw that the rebels had split up to surround Liu Yuanbin, a smile appeared on Chen Ce's face, and they were fooled.

Half an hour passed, and after more than a thousand mutilated corpses were thrown down, the most tragic hand-to-hand combat began.

The men and horses of the two sides fought together, and the chieftain also personally led the team, and after a period of slashing, he found that these officers and soldiers were very strong in combat.

Their formations are not messy, and they are obviously well-trained elites!

Although the rebels were superior in numbers, their knives and guns were often removed the first time they poked or slashed at the officers and soldiers.

Officers and soldiers are just the opposite, sharp swords and spears can easily penetrate the rebels' defenses and stab into the flesh.

Less than a quarter of an hour after the engagement, the shouts of killing pierced through the mountains and into the sky.

A trickle turned into a river of blood flowing with blood and minced flesh, which was shocking.
