Yanguli's flag was too far away, only the long-range Hongyi cannon could be obtained, and it had to be a Hongyi cannon of more than six pounds, and although the Franc cannon fired fast, the range was not far.

"Aim at the flags on the opposite hill and smash them for me!"

"Bang!"

After a test of artillery, the earth-shattering sound of artillery sounded again after a long pause in front of the Yongwei battalion.

All the Hongyi cannons opened fire in unison, and in the thick and fierce smoke of gunpowder, dense iron ball projectiles shot towards the Yanguli banner on the mountain in the distance.

The deafening cannon rang out one after another, and one after another dense lead pellets roared towards the banner, causing the Qing troops on the opposite side to fall to the ground one by one, and there was a mess everywhere.

In the face of the roar of the rain of lead bullets, the Qing army's position was chaotic for a while, and the Qing soldiers of the Zhenghuang Banner guarding Yanguli around the banner screamed and stayed away from this place.

On the hillside where Yanguli is located, the artillery shells of this era are basically solid balls, which cannot be rolled on the reverse slope, and can only smash a pit, which can hardly exert the power of artillery, so Yanguli is lucky to survive.

Rao is Yanguli has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he has seen a lot of knowledge, but at this time he is at a loss, and he has no idea at all. His eyes were straight, and the scorching heat made his face drenched in sweat.

Jia Lazhangjing on his side said: "E, the artillery fire of the Ming army is too strong, retreat quickly!" ”

Yanguli trembled his hands, and finally understood that this battle was a complete failure, and if he waited for the artillery of the Yongwei Battalion to adjust the distance, he would probably be smashed to pieces.

Yanguli gritted his teeth, his voice trembled a little, and said, "Order, the whole army retreats!" ”

Yanguli knew that Liangxiang City might not be able to hold it, and it would be a dead end to flee to Liangxiang City, so he could only abandon Liangxiang City, lead the remaining men and horses, and go south to the desert.

Finally, the sound of Mingjin closing the troops came from behind the Qing army, and the Eight Banners Army was routed on all fronts, and the remaining infantry of less than 2,000 retreated like a tide, and even the cavalry attacking the two flanks no longer fought with the cavalry of the Yongwei battalion and turned back.

After receiving Mingjin's order, the Tartars defending the city saw that the main force was defeated, and hurriedly formed a team, threw down all their belongings and fled out of the city, lest they fall and be blocked in the city by the Ming army.

Seeing the retreat of the Qing army and the cheers of the Yongwei battalion position, how could Zhu Cihong give up? Quickly ordered Huang De's power army to pursue.

Huang Degong rode a war horse, raised the iron whip in his hand, and shouted: "Brothers, follow me to hunt down the thieves!" Strengthen our army! ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The entire Yongwei battalion suddenly screamed, and all the cavalry and infantry shouted wildly and chased in the direction of the Qing army's defeat and escape, pursuing the remnants of the Qing army.

Huang De's power army clung to the Qing army, not letting them take away the Jiannu and wounded soldiers who died in battle, and he would not let go of any of these heads.

The fleeing Qing soldiers also did not care about the corpses of their injured comrades and comrades, and were chased by the Yongwei battalion and cut off a large number of heads along the way.

After chasing for several miles, Huang Degong returned victoriously with a large number of men and two or three hundred prisoners.

He knew very well that the current cavalry of the Yongwei Battalion had suffered great consumption after the battle just now, and they could no longer fight hard, so they did not pursue it hard.

The Qing army ran out for more than ten miles in one go, and retreated to the vicinity of Shilou Town before it stopped.

At this time, Yanguli collected the remnants of the defeated army, and sent people everywhere to recruit other defeated soldiers, and by the way, he also inquired about the movements of the Ming army.

At this time, on the small hillside of the Yongwei Battalion's position, there was blood all over the ground, and the moans of the wounded everywhere, which made Zhu Cihong look at it and sigh.

Zhu Cihong took 500 guards from the East Palace to carry the wounded soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion to a temporary camp tent one by one, and chopped off the heads of those Qing soldiers who were injured and could not escape.

Sun Yingyuan and other generals are used to seeing this kind of scene in Liaodong, and they don't care, many soldiers are full of pride and joy in their hearts, and they are extremely happy.

After Huang Degong returned from leading the army, Zhu Cihong left some of his men and horses to continue to clean up the battlefield, and then took most of his men and horses to Liangxiang City.

Long Xiang did not accept the Qing army guarding the city at night and ran away and took the lead in entering Liangxiang City, cleaning up the missing Qing soldiers everywhere, and it didn't take long to find the people who were imprisoned.

Those people saw that the few team members who did not harvest at night were riding war horses and were well equipped, and they retreated one after another, and there was some fear in their eyes.

Yang Qili, the first sentinel commander, shouted loudly: "We are the Emperor's army, come to rescue you, don't panic!" ”

Countless people flocked to the streets to watch, and they wept to each other and were finally saved.

Some bold people asked the members of the team who did not collect at night: "Master Jun, where are you in the army?" ”

Yang Qili replied: "We are the Jingshi Yongwei Battalion, and we are the Son of Heaven's own army!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come to Liangxiang in person, and now he is leading an army to hunt down the Tartars outside the city, and you have rescued them! ”

"The crown prince's men? Is Chitose here? ”

"I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come and rescue us in person, it's really an eye-opener!"

"The great grace of the Chitose Lord is unforgettable, and I will definitely set up a longevity card in the future to pray for the benefactor for good life."

“……”

Hundreds of people wept with joy.

Yang Qili first let him go for a few nights to transport grain and meat from the warehouses built by the Qing army, and relieve the captured people in the city.

He was worried that these people who had been hungry for too long would eat too much and die of strangulation, so he was only allowed to eat two bowls of rice porridge per person for the first meal.

The rare relief of the officers and soldiers, coupled with the prolonged starvation, made all the people boil, and countless people kowtowed to the night keepers in thanks.

Ye Bushu announced loudly that the crown prince was about to enter the city, and everyone should not run around, let alone take advantage of the mess, otherwise they would be severely punished.

The people everywhere drank the rice porridge with white flowers, and with the joy of being saved, they all agreed to the demands of these sergeants, and did as they were.

Not long after, several dragons found several large warehouses in the city, where a large number of grain and grass materials were gathered, and there were hundreds of thousands of taels of silver alone, and several warehouses were piled up.

After receiving the report, Yang Qili's eyes were straight, but he was not stupid enough to want to be greedy for these goods, the extra income that was not collected at night was already abundant, and these loot in the city did not belong to them, so he couldn't do this thing that triggered the military regulations.

Yang Qili was worried that some people would come to rob him, so he ordered people to handle them tightly and no one was allowed to approach, and then he flew his horse to report to Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong was very surprised when he got the news, this Yanguli actually threw away all these materials and ran away without taking anything?

It's normal to think about it, the Qing soldiers have always been conceited, and they have entered the customs several times as if they were entering no man's land, and there is a legend of 'invincible', Yanguli has nearly 10,000 horses, and he would never have thought that he would be defeated, so he didn't leave a back hand at all.

Zhu Cihong said: "Send more people to help, and let Lu Jiude take the officials of the battalion headquarters to count the seizures here after registering the first-level seizures." ”

Yang Qili said: "Your Highness, do you want to report to the palace now?" ”

Zhu Cihong waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll report after the advanced city is settled, so that Long Xiang will not collect it at night to strengthen the investigation of the movements of the surrounding Qing army, especially the slave chieftain Azig department." ”

The Azig Department had tens of thousands of troops, and Zhu Cihong had to defend against it. After Yang Qili was ordered to retreat, Zhu Cihong led the Yongwei battalion to prepare to enter Liangxiang City.
