PS: Thank you for the monthly ticket voted by "Pastoral Muge" and "No Electricity and No Network".

August 15, noon.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived, Liu Fang conformed to the "public opinion" and added meals to [www.biqugexx.biz]'s subordinates, one person with one or two wines, and two taels of meat.

Liu Fang is not short of meat, horse meat!

It was the injured horse and dead horse left by the Qing Riding before, and the good horse was taken to Xuyi by Chi Erhan.

These pieces of meat were treated as treasures by Liu Fang, and the mothers-in-law were strung together piece by piece, looking for vents to dry, and in ordinary times, even he was reluctant to eat them, and used them to reward the trained "soldiers" in the "big school field".

Not to mention, the men who are hung by the flesh are fixing themselves to death, and they don't hesitate to sweat a lot.

It is unprecedented, as it is today, to sprinkle meat on a large scale.

But just outside the town, when thousands of people were preparing to celebrate the festival, the sentry came to report that a large number of enemy troops had reached about thirty miles outside the town and would soon reach the town.

Do you want to say that Liu Fang has this military talent and sends scouts to warn?

Of course not, at least, so far, Liu Fang has not had this kind of awareness.

Fortunately, Chi Erhan left him with more than a dozen people, and this is why Liu Fang's "big school" training move.

It was these dozen or so soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army who supported a framework for Liu Fang's department, but unfortunately there were not enough manpower and time.

When Liu Fang heard this, he shouted at the "generals" who had gathered around him and were going to drink for the festival, "Brothers, the military exploits that I have been looking forward to day and night have come to the door!" ”

Listen, at this juncture, Lao Liu is still panting, and he has no idea what kind of battle he will face.

Where did Klerdo come from?

Xuyi is fighting fiercely in the west, Hongze Lake is in the north of Hengyang, and Yangzhou is in the east.

Ledu, the road he came to is actually the road that Rocco Duo took Doni to walk, bypassing Duliang Mountain, and it is also the only official road leading to Hengyang Town in Fengyang Mansion at present.

……。

This battle couldn't have come at a better time.

So that everyone had to put down the bowls in their hands and start assembling.

It can be said that everyone's heart is depressed, which may also be a kind of morale, the heart of being robbed of their jobs.

But this assembly caused chaos.

There are nearly 9,000 people, not counting the women who drag their families.

Let's put it this way, if it weren't for the dozen or so people left behind by Chi Erhan, I'm afraid this gathering wouldn't have been able to end until dark.

Fortunately, of the more than 3,000 people in Ledu, only 600 were cavalry, and the remaining 3,000 new troops were infantry, which affected the overall speed, otherwise, the distance of thirty miles would not have given Liu Fang time to gather troops.

For a whole pillar of incense, Liu put it with great difficulty, and with the help of ten soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army, he pulled out a team of about 2,000 people.

Liu Fang knew that he couldn't wait, so he left the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army to continue to gather troops, and he led these two thousand people out of the town to meet the attacking enemy.

……。

This battle, at the beginning, almost repeated the same dilemma that Rocodor had encountered that day.

Although Liu Fang is a rough man, the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army left behind by Chi Erhan are not.

Hengyang Town will not suffer a large-scale attack from the enemy on three sides, because the north is Hongze Lake, and it is difficult for the enemy to cross the 800-mile lake in large forces to attack a small town in Hengyang.

In the east, Chi Erhan's troops were fighting fiercely with the enemy, and the enemy could not attack Hengyang Town in a big way before defeating the Northern Expeditionary Army, and there was no need for that.

Yangzhou Mansion in the east is now under the rule of the Great General's Mansion, and it is impossible for a large number of enemies to attack when there is a garrison of the Northern Expeditionary Army to defend it.

Therefore, these soldiers gave Liu Fang advice that guarding the only passage to the west outside the town would ensure the safety of Hengyang Town.

Liu Fang is still "good at admonishment", and the hill outside the town is his military exploits and pride.

As a result, a large number of traps and mines were re-planted on the official road on the side of the hill outside the town.

At this time, it can indeed be called a mine, because with the guidance of the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army, there are standards for charges, there are standards for placing wires, and there are rules for the interval and scope of burial.

In this respect, the ambush at this time was more lethal than what Rocodo had encountered that day.

Naturally, Ledu and his army don't know about this.

The cavalry was in front, gathering scouts and vanguards, and the 3,000 new troops behind were marching like a parade.

Originally, in their minds, this was an errand without difficulty.

Who would have thought that a small town that had been slaughtered would gather a "powerful" army in a short period of time?

When half of the six hundred cavalry entered the ambush, Lao Liu, who had been waiting anxiously, excitedly gave the order to attack.

And it's a general offensive.

It's early, it's really early.

If you wait for the cavalry striker to come out of the ambush, the effect will be more than twice as good.

At least, this cavalry can be severely damaged, and then in the subsequent battle, you can not worry about the cavalry flank raid, and the difficulty will be much less.

It's a pity that Lao Liu was already in a hurry at this time, and he wanted to recreate the glory of the day in front of his subordinates.

Under his order, he detonated the pre-planted earth mines, and for a while, the explosion sounded on the entire section of the official road, and the fire and dust filled the entire sky over the battlefield.

At this time, almost everyone on the mountain was excited, and they thought that with such an explosion, the enemy should have been blown down.

So, Lao Liu waved his hand, "Kill the Tartar", like a long tone that day.

Of the 2,000 people, one counts as one, shouting "Kill the Tartars" and rushing down the mountain.

This momentum is indeed powerful, and it is all over the mountains.

But when he rushed halfway up the mountain, the dust stirred up by the explosion gradually dissipated, and the situation on the battlefield began to be faintly visible.

In fact, less than half of the 600 enemy horsemen were actually killed or injured by the bombing, and at least more than 300 horsemen scattered towards the paddy fields on the side.

And the three thousand infantry of the enemy army behind them did not have any impact at all, at most, they were only startled.

These highly trained recruits began to form a salvo formation, raising their guns and firing at those who rushed down the mountainside.

It's too late, it's too soon.

Round after round of volleys, the rebels on the mountainside were constantly hit by arrows and projectiles, falling and rolling down one by one.

Everyone wanted to flee and hide in their hearts, but they didn't listen to the call, the inertia of rushing down, and the panic made them unable to stop for a while, and in this way, everyone became the target of the Qing army's musketeers on this bare mountainside.

At this time, Liu Fang made a correct choice and retreated!

It's hard to make this decision, especially with a heart like Liu Fang.

But Liu Fang had previous battlefield experience, and Lao Zhang He's five hundred Hengyang Qingzhuang's death method that followed him at the beginning made him unforgettable.

If you can't beat it, you have to run away!

But even if Liu Fang withdrew quickly, 2,000 people, in just this short moment, nearly 800 people were lost.

In other words, the casualties of the rebels were almost more than double the losses of the Qing army when they were ambushed.
