As the rogue gradually arrived, thousands of people gathered around the dirt slope, surrounding the small dirt slope, and at a glance it was densely packed with human figures, and people with dense phobia would have to be frightened to see such a scene.

Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin and other rogue leaders came to the bottom of the dirt slope under the support of countless old camp thieves, and they all laughed when they saw that the Jiang Ning army on the soil slope was still struggling to dig a trench.

Liu Zongmin leaned back with a smile, raised his horsewhip and pointed at the dirt slope and said loudly: "Are those dog officers and soldiers digging holes for themselves, they actually dig so hard, is it possible that Jiangning's military reputation is earned by these little tricks?" ”

Yuan Zongdi also shook his head with a smile, feeling that these Ming troops really had a feeling of being dizzy at the end of the road, seeing that it was the last battle, they actually had the leisure to dig a pit, was this afraid that no one would mention that they would collect their corpses after their death?

Li Yan frowned and stared at the Ming army on the slope, according to what he saw, the Jiangning army was definitely the most powerful army in the Ming Dynasty, and such an army would never do anything irrational even when it was in trouble.

Li Laiheng was eager to try: "King Chuang, let me try, as long as you give me 2,000 people, I guarantee that I can slaughter all those dog officers and soldiers in an hour." ”

Li Zongmin glanced at him with disdain, turned his head to Li Zicheng and said: "King Chuang, I don't want 2,000 people, as long as I give 1,000 people, I will take off all the heads of these Ming troops and send them to you." ”

Li Zicheng looked at the Jiang Ning army on the hillside, then at Li Laiheng and Liu Zongmin, and after thinking for a while, he asked everyone: "Do you know why I and the military division spent a lot of energy to mobilize a battalion of nearly 10,000 men and horses to set up this bureau?" Is it just to eat these hundred or so people? ”

Everyone was stunned at first, isn't it obvious that the Jiangning army is too powerful, in the previous battle of Mengjin City, the more than 200,000 righteous troops led by Gao Yingxiang were annihilated by the tens of thousands of Jiangning troops led by Yang Feng in one fell swoop, so that the current rogues have a shadow in their hearts on the Jiangning army, which is why this time the concentration of tens of thousands of troops to deal with the more than 100 Jiangning troops in this area happened.

However, everyone immediately reacted, especially Li Laiheng and Liu Zongmin, who immediately understood that King Chuang was beating them.

Li Zicheng glanced at the two of them and continued: "The strength of the Jiangning army is obvious to all, I estimate that these ditches they dug are used to avoid arrows, and their firearms are very sharp, so you must not be careless."

So this time the two of you go up together, as for who comes first and who comes next, I just want to see you send the heads of those Ming troops to me. I also promise you, whoever eats that Ming army first will belong to whoever they have with their firearms and armor, understand? ”

"Got it!"

Li Laiheng and Liu Zongmin glanced at each other, and a strong battle intent surged in their hearts at the same time, as long as they could eat this one, both their prestige and benefits would be great.

Li Laiheng gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and said: "Don't worry, King Chuang, I will definitely live up to your expectations, and I will definitely bring the heads of those Ming soldiers to you." ”、

After that, he smiled at Liu Zongmin again: "Brother Liu, you first press the formation for me, and then come to invite you to drink after I pick the heads of those Ming soldiers!" Haha......"

With that, he turned around and walked out.

I saw that he came to his own team, drew his long knife, and shouted: "Brothers, on the opposite slope are the officers and soldiers sent by the imperial court to exterminate us. Now that the traitors of the court are in charge, we ordinary people really can't live, since the court wants our lives, we can't just wait for death, right? King Shicai said, as long as you kill all the dog officers and soldiers on the hillside, whether it is silver or women, you can do whatever you want, do you hear clearly? ”

"Clear!"

"Kill all the officers and soldiers, rob the silver and rob the women!"

Li Laiheng roared while encouraging, it seemed to be a threat, it seemed to be an agitation, and soon the expressions of all the bandits became excited, all of them danced knives and guns, and screamed strangely, like a group of demons dancing wildly.

Soon, under the command of Li Laiheng, a group of rogue soldiers rushed towards the hillside.

Since the defeat of Mengjin in the First Battle, Li Zicheng learned from the pain, discussed with Li Yan for several days, and made some adjustments to the soldiers and horses.

Now, the 2,000 men and horses commanded by Li Laiheng are much more disciplined than before.

On the periphery were the poorly equipped young men, while the more elite sword and shield men mingled in the ranks and the archers provided cover in the back.

With the rogues shouting, Li Laiheng commanded two thousand people to rush towards the hillside.

At this time, the Jiangning troops on the hillside had stopped digging trenches, and a hundred people were divided into three rows and squatted in waist-deep trenches, with round shields erected in front of them.

Since there is a steep slope 100 meters deep behind this hill, such terrain is basically not defensive, so the cavalry only needs to defend the front.

Bai Zong stood on the top of the hill and looked over, and found that these thieves seemed to have dispatched nearly 2,000 troops, but in fact, there was only about a group of people who rushed to the front, and the remaining half of the people shouted fiercely, but their movements were tepid, and it seemed that the leader of the robbers in command on the opposite side was not a reckless man.

He silently looked at the rear, because he only had more than a hundred people, so he could only try to arrange his troops in the back, and maximize the power of his firecrackers as much as possible.

Mr. Bai looked at the trench with some regret, due to the urgency of time, the trench dug was still too shallow, if he could be given another half an hour, he would be able to dig a trench that could hide all the personnel in it.

In the trenches, the dismounted cavalrymen were half-crouching, resting their round shields on the excavated floating earth, holding their fire guns in their hands and staring at the rogues who were rushing towards them.

Many people were nervous and their hands were bruised, and the trench was quiet, and only the heavy breathing of everyone could be heard.

When the rogue who rushed to the front came a hundred meters away from them, Bai Zong waved his arm violently, and then a loud shrill whistle sounded.

The shrill whistle seemed to pierce the clouds, and even suppressed the roars of the rogues.

"Fire!"

With Bai Zong's order, the cavalry in the first trench pulled the trigger one after another, the hammer fell, and the flint struck the powder pool and sent out sparks one after another, igniting the gunpowder inside.

Fierce smoke erupted from the muzzle of the gun, interspersed with raging fire.

Plumes of white smoke rose one after another, accompanied by a deafening sound of displacement.

Hearing these familiar and unfamiliar gunshots, Li Zicheng in the distance couldn't help but shudder.
