Although there is a lot of gunpowder hoarded in the Liu family's firecracker warehouse, it is after all scattered gunpowder used for artillery.

The explosion is indeed just as earth-shattering, but in fact, unless it is in the center of the explosion, the lethality is very small.

Liu Fang also knows this truth.

Is there any other way?

Liu Fang and others can only fight to the death.

In the dark, there is a fixed number.

What is the cause and what is the effect, Liu Fang's benevolence, and the young Zhuang sent by him brought vitality to him and his subordinates.

Chi Erhan led his troops to arrive, and at the moment when Liu Fang and the others arrived home.

At this time, it was the second half of the night, and the cavalry of Chi Erhan's department swept from the north of the town to the center with a frenzied speed.

When the young men who came back with Chi Erhan shouted and ran to Liu Fang and the others, the young men cried, and Liu Fang also cried.

This is not crying for the sake of escaping death, but all the persistence has come to fruition.

Chi Erhan had more than 800 cavalry, and his troops occupied an absolute advantage.

At the same time, the Qing army's night carnival, when chasing Liu Fang and others, many Qing soldiers did not get on their horses, and they pursued Liu Fang and others like cats and mice.

The dozens of Qing soldiers at the forefront were instantly swept away by the cavalry of Chi Erhan's department and crushed into ashes.

It was supposed to be a one-sided battle.

It's a pity that Roccodor's department is indeed the elite of the full flag, and these Manchurian horsemen who have followed Rocoduo for more than ten years have almost no opponents from outside the pass to inside the pass.

They didn't even suffer the same losses as yesterday, but even if they were caught off guard, this Qing army did not break up, but under the leadership of Luo Keduo, they retreated ten miles, and then wiped out Liu Fang's hundreds of young men in one fell swoop.

They are strong on the inside and quick to react.

At the moment when Chi Erhan's cavalry rushed into the town, the follow-up Qing soldiers didn't even need Luo Keduo's order, they each rushed to their own horses, and in an instant, they completed the assembly.

And this time difference is only for Chi Erhan's cavalry to kill the dozens of people who pursued Liu Fang and others, and they haven't even rushed to the center of the town, the temporary camp of the Qing soldiers.

An extremely hard battle began in the dilapidated town of Hengyang.

Everyone knows that the cavalry under Chi Erhan is not cavalry, but is just a temporary formation for the speed of the march.

Their riding tactics and ability to control horses are completely inferior to those of Qing cavalry.

Especially in this kind of battlefield of street fighting, it is impossible to compete with Qing cavalry.

But there was no way, they could not complete the transformation from "cavalry" to musketeers in such a short time.

If you bump into it, you have to fight and fight with your life. On the battlefield, there has never been a reason, and there is no need for a reason.

The response speed of the Qing cavalry was very fast, and when he first started the battle, he saw that the fallen soldiers were all soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

But the Northern Expeditionary Army had strict training, and they also had battlefield experience.

The biggest difference between the elite and the recruit is that when fighting against the wind, the recruit will collapse, the elite can tenaciously reverse the disadvantage, the recruit will only take care of his own life, and the elite can create opportunities for his comrades to survive, even if it costs their own lives.

The "cavalry" of the Northern Expeditionary Army, which rushed ahead, invariably detonated the grenades on their bodies.

used his life to suppress the invincible Qing Cavalry.

In this short period of time, the self-sacrifice of more than a dozen people in exchange for the cavalry of the Northern Expeditionary Army had time to dismount and complete a simple transformation of troops, simply put, they could raise their guns and aim.

This made the one-sided disadvantage of the battlefield begin to stabilize.

The Northern Expeditionary Army had the ability to counter the Qing cavalry.

But the battle was still extremely cruel, Hengyang was just a small town, its streets were too narrow, and the Northern Expeditionary Army could not divide and encircle the enemy with the superiority of troops.

In the case of inferior skills and tactics, it is often two or three lives that can be exchanged for one life of the Tartar.

In the battle of a pillar of incense, Chi Erhan paid nearly 300 casualties before stabilizing the battle situation and forming a north-south confrontation.

The casualties of the Qing soldiers were much smaller than those of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and even less than 100 people.

This is not a disparity in comprehensive capabilities, but a disadvantage caused by a specific time and a specific area.

After the battle situation stabilized, Ji Erhan began to organize a response.

He ordered the rear army to divide into two partial divisions, each with dozens of men to make a detour to the east and west.

……。

Rocodo had been excited.

The moment the Northern Expeditionary Army stormed the town, he was stunned.

But the ensuing battlefield situation made him full of confidence.

He was confident that with more than 300 horsemen, he would annihilate this rookie cavalry of the enemy army who did not know where to come.

But later, when the cavalry in the vanguard of the Northern Expeditionary Army brazenly detonated the firearms on their bodies at the same time, suppressed and repelled the Qing cavalry, Rocodor's self-confidence began to waver.

He realized that this was not a rookie cavalry, this should be the elite of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Because of this kind of fearless behavior, if it is an accidental case, it is not surprising, there are a few brave people everywhere.

But if it's a group action, it's different.

This required rigorous training and great mental strength, and Rocodo felt that he could not let his soldiers do this, so he only had to arrange a few daredevils in advance to guide the rest of the soldiers to follow suit.

But the opponents are different, they don't even need commands, they react spontaneously, knee-jerk.

Realizing this, Roccodo made the only time in his life that he took the initiative to retreat when he had the advantage on the battlefield.

Roccodor's decision was the right one.

The Qing cavalry fight is indeed strong, but the town is already dilapidated, almost unobstructed, the cavalry has lost its speed, and fights condescendingly in the streets, although it seems to be superior, but in fact, it is to abandon the long and the short.

If the musketeers have sufficient range of fire, they can shoot accurately at the enemy cavalry in high places, and the horses of the clear horses stall and cannot impact the opponent's rear, then the advantage they occupy at this time will be reversed in an instant.

Rocoduo is indeed experienced on the battlefield, and with the active evacuation at this time, Qing Qi can calmly break away from the opponent with his riding skills.

Once it accelerates first, then even if the Northern Expeditionary Army pursues again, I am afraid it will be difficult to catch up.

In fact, the Qing cavalry suddenly broke away, and the Northern Expeditionary Army was confused, just like when a fist was struck, it hit the air.

Even Chi Erhan felt a burst of surprise before he came back to his senses and organized a pursuit.

It was this accident that Qingqi had already stretched the distance to two or three miles.

……。

Rocodo withdrew calmly.

This battle made his originally suppressed psychology become happy, especially after guessing that the other party was the elite of the Northern Expeditionary Army, Rocduo was even more comfortable.

Fighting a strong opponent is a dumb loss, this is the most enjoyable thing for any general who leads troops.

After pulling away, Qing Qi did not continue to accelerate away.

Because Rocoduo also wanted to use his speed to attack and harass the Northern Expeditionary Army in the town in order to expand the results of the battle.

That's what light riding does best.

But what Rocoduo didn't expect was that to the south, leading to a small hill that had been beaten by a group of villagers the day before yesterday.

As he passed the hill at a relatively slow pace, Rocodo encountered the same people in the same place.

Maybe it's providence, Roccodo should have died here, under the nameless mountain.
