A brutal battle between hand-to-hand battles is finally about to begin.

Under the dim sky, a Qing army adjutant general led 5,000 elite Qing troops, rushing out of the fortifications with a loud shout, and rushed towards the fire guns at the front of the marching Tang army's battle array.

Seeing the Qing army rushing out of the fortifications and rushing towards itself, the Tang army's military formation immediately stopped, and then set up a formation, ready to meet the enemy.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

"Bang 。。。。。。"

With the leading captain of the Tang Army, the three rows of Tang Gunners quickly formed a three-stage strike formation in the front and rear rows.

Among the 6,000 shots, the 2,000 in the front row was fired first.

Then, the first row stepped back to the back of the third row, followed by the second row of 2,000 Rums.

Then the second row retreated to the first row, and the third row of gunners came up and fired another 2,000 Lumi guns.

At this point, a complete three-stage blow is completed.

After the third row of gunners was completed, the original first row of gunners had already loaded gunpowder and bullets, and continued to go to the front, ready to start a new round of firing again, and the three-stage attack process began again.

The sound of gunshots like bursting beans rang out densely, and the muzzle flames formed a row of dark red flying fire curtains, and thick white smoke immediately surged up on the shields lined up in a straight line.

Countless whistling three-penny small rice bullets let out a slight scream, and shot away towards the Qing army rushing towards the opposite side.

These hot and hot small lead bullets roared away, and immediately pierced into the bodies of those Qing soldiers like hot knives piercing butter.

Under the almost endless, seemingly endless blows of the Tang army, the 5,000 Qing troops who rushed forward together were instantly shot and killed more than 800 people in the first three-stage salvo.

The lieutenant who led the charge was quite different because of the bright armor he was wearing, so he himself could be called a bullet magnet.

The first three-stage salvo of the Tang army, a full fifteen lead bullets, hit him at the same time, leaving the lieutenant general from head to toe, covered with dense small blood holes.

This adjutant general of the Qing army, who was originally brandishing a war knife and shouting forward, stopped rushing forward as if he had been suddenly hit with a heavy hammer. After being stunned for less than a second, he fell to the ground on his back and did not move again.

The leading lieutenant general was killed, and the Qing army, which suffered heavy casualties, was attacked head-on, and the formation was in chaos.

The remaining 4,000 or so Qing troops, as soon as they were a little sluggish, everyone turned around and fled as if they were crazy about gain and loss. A very large number of people lost their weapons and just wanted to run faster.

It's just that the interval between the next three strikes is extremely short, and the dense and non-stop Lumi guns completely dispelled their desire to escape, and countless lead bullets caught up with them, and shot them five or six hundred people from behind.

After seeing the remaining more than 3,000 Qing troops fleeing back to their own formation in an extremely embarrassed posture, the Tang army gunners packed up their weapons, and after shouting an order, they continued to maintain a stable formation with the soldiers and horses of the main formation behind them, and continued to advance towards the city.

Seeing this tragic scene, the main general Zilharang and all the Qing troops who were hiding behind the fortifications that were urgently built were all immediately beaten.

Depend on! The firearms of the Tang army were so powerful, this was not a war at all, but an outright massacre.

Moreover, what the hell is going on, the Tang Army's firecrackers are not like the firecrackers seen in the past, but they have been continuously released endlessly, this, this is simply a nightmare!

After all, in the impression of all the Qing troops, as long as the Ming army's guns were usually withstood the first round of salvos, then, in the next few minutes, the Ming army was in the most defenseless state because it had to reload the ammunition, and they just seized such an opportunity to carry out a surprise attack.

It's just that what is now beyond the imagination of the main general Zierharang is that the Tang army on the opposite side, the dense thousands of Lu Mi guns, as if they will never stop, actually defeated the 5,000 Qing army headquarters that wanted to be strangled in close combat on the spot in one go, killing and injuring a lot, which is simply beyond everyone's imagination.

Such a dense and concentrated shooting, as if it would never stop, was completely different from any Ming army that had been faced before. This kind of almost endless firepower, this kind of slaughtering battle that wiped out all the attacking troops, dealt a very huge blow to the hearts of the Qing army.

Such a near-mortal ending made the Qing army no longer have the courage to assault, and all the remaining troops were cowered in the city.

At this time, the most anxious and panicked person was the main general of the city, Zilharang.

What to do?

The Tang Army's offensive was so fierce, could the remaining soldiers under his command who were demoralized and demoralized and had no fighting spirit, as well as those even more unbearable temporary summons, really be able to withstand it?

Zilharang's face was full of fear and confusion.

At this time, about ten miles west of Liaoyang City, Duoduo, who had been restored to the title of Prince Yu by the Qing court, was leading his 50,000 troops to march quickly all the way to Liaoyang City.

It was nearly noon, the weather was very hot, and Duoduo and his subordinates were all so hot that their faces were dripping with sweat, and they were all full of exhaustion.

In the scorching heat, Duoduo simply lifted his helmet and let the cool breeze brought by the horses blow the shaved blue scalp and the small braid at the back of his head.

"Prince Yu, the sentinel has come to report, twenty miles ahead, it is the gateway to Xuanfu North Road." A personal general next to him stretched out his finger and pointed to the faint black shadow of the city on the horizon.

Duoduo let out a soft sigh in reply.

After receiving the order to retreat in Jinzhou, he immediately led his troops back, and finally came to the outside of Liaoyang City after a long journey of several days.

At this moment, Duoduo had mixed feelings in his heart.

During this period of time, Duoduo also received letters from the south from time to time, knowing that the Tang army was in full swing to expand its power and expand its territory in the south, and its forces and soldiers and horses had expanded a lot more than a year ago.

And Li Xiao, the king of the Tang Dynasty, has become the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses by virtue of the time, and among the existing major forces, he is already arrogant, unmatched, and almost has the power to dominate the world.

This person is under one person, above ten thousand, and has extremely strong financial resources, vast territory, strong and powerful soldiers, and his strength is so terrifying that almost no one in the world can beat him. I'm afraid that this world will eventually be completely controlled by this person.

And at that time, the Prince Yu of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty clan with heavy troops, will definitely become the mortal enemy of the Tang army. In the future, if Li Xiao succeeds in unifying the country, he will definitely march north and wipe out the Qing court, so he is afraid that his glory and future prospects in the Qing court will become a mirror flower and will not be found.

If that day comes, Hugh will talk about his future official position, but he is afraid that his life and head will be difficult to preserve, and he may become a trophy of the Tang Army.

It's just that I didn't think that when I went out to Jinzhou, as many as hundreds of thousands of Tang troops crossed the sea and attacked Liaozhong, which caught the Qing court off guard, and lost successive battles, which had reached a precarious point.

And after receiving the news from Azig's subordinates, he would completely abandon the original plan of the southern expedition to the north of Xuanfu, and had to return with all his strength in order to preserve the core territory of the Qing court as much as possible.

After Azig led 100,000 soldiers and horses back to Shengjing, he received an edict from Dolgon on the way, asking him to immediately lead his troops to Liaoyang to prevent the Tang army from attacking this important town in Liaozhong.

Duoduo, who received the news, was terrified, he never expected that the Tang army would move so quickly, after landing from Yingkou, it was actually Lianke Liaozhong Yaozhou, Haicheng and other important towns, and completely absorbed and eliminated the Sanshun King in southern Liaoning, and now the troops are pointing directly at Liaoyang, which is simply a speed like a fire burning the plain. The Tang Army's actions are so swift and powerful, this, how can this be stopped.

Duoduo thought sadly, the Tang army had so many soldiers and horses, and it had already been under the city of Liaoyang, even if he came to help urgently, how sure was he that he could defeat the Tang army and lift the siege of Liaoyang.

Perhaps, in such a situation, we can only take one step at a time. What the future holds in the end can only depend on the will of God.

At this moment, thinking of this, the unbearable heat of Duoduo became more and more upset, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh again.

Dordor, with the command of the army, continued some way forward.

It was noon, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the scorching west wind rolled up the billowing sand on the bald sand, and howled like a wild beast, and the grains of sand that blew with the strong wind made it almost impossible for the whole army to open their eyes.

In such weather, the morale of the entire army of the Duoduo Department became more and more depressed, and the fatigue became more and more slow, and even the Duoduo guards looked like everyone was languishing.

It's just that now that Liaoyang City is close in front of him, the vague outline of its city is already faintly visible, and Duoduo feels a little comforted in his heart.

Damn, in this scorching summer, he and his subordinates, like lost dogs, fled all the way west, and ran sleepless for several days, and this man and horse were exhausted. Fortunately, when the morale of the whole army was almost at the bottom, he and his more than 50,000 soldiers and horses finally arrived outside Liaoyang City.

"Brothers, quit your hard work, the whole army will work harder, advance quickly, and after arriving in Liaoyang, let you have a good rest."

Duoduo wiped a handful of sweat and mud stains from his face, and shouted at the scattered and languishing army of the banner, giving them the most practical encouragement to the exhausted.

The entire army let out a low cheer, which was regarded as a perfunctory response to the commander-in-chief.

More than 50,000 Qing soldiers and horses, mighty and mighty, all the way to Liaoyang City in the distance. What everyone didn't expect was that just as the whole army was moving forward, a faint commotion was heard in the distance.

Everyone saw that there seemed to be a black line, which began to be extremely thin and light, and gradually became thicker and thicker, and finally this black line was like magic, conjuring countless soldiers and horses and flags, dazzling swords and guns, and war horses neighing, whistling and shouting, surging in their own direction.

In the boiling heat, these rushing soldiers and horses, showing twisted and strange shapes, look very unreal, as if they exist in a dream.

It turned out that after the sentinel cavalry found out that the Qing army had come to the rescue, Monk An quickly learned that this Qing army was more than 50,000 soldiers and horses of Duoduo, and was planning to enter Liaoyang to relieve the siege of Liaoyang.

So, he immediately made a calculation, and immediately ordered his subordinates Mo Changrong's 11th Town soldiers and horses and Shang Zhixin's 20,000 Shang family troops to go to Qixi to meet the enemy, and in the siege of Liaoyang, only the other three towns were left to continue fighting.

The number of soldiers and horses in the eleventh town, plus Shang Zhixin's more than two people, the total number of soldiers and horses reached more than 60,000 people, which was more advantageous than the enemy army on the opposite side. Monk An asked them to defeat the enemy and if possible, to maximize the results of the battle, so as to deal a greater blow to the morale and will of the defenders in the city.

Now Duoduo and the others, when they saw this sudden scene, they were all shocked and dumbfounded.

No, when the Tang army was besieging the city, there were still so many troops to attack itself.

For a moment, Duoduo's mind was a little overwhelmed.

And when he was stunned and hesitated, the Tang army had already begun to approach rapidly. Seeing this scene, Duoduo did not dare to slack off, and immediately began to set up the formation on the spot.

He ordered all more than 50,000 soldiers and horses to line up according to the width of the Tang army's formation on the opposite side, and prepare for fighting with the Tang army. The 5,000 Manchurian iron cavalry were divided into two divisions, guarding the left and right sides to protect the two wings of the infantry battle array.

At the same time, he ordered several sentry cavalry to set off immediately, asking them to do everything possible to report to the chief general of Liaoyang City, Prince Zheng Zierharang, and order them to go out of the city to fight, hoping that when they dragged the Tang army, they could encircle the Tang army in one fell swoop and wipe it out all by attacking from both sides.

It should be said that Duoduo's response this time was decent, neither big nor aggressive, but it was also appropriate, but he still underestimated the combat ability of the Tang army.

At a distance of several miles, the Tang army was able to maintain a strict formation, without giving Duoduo the slightest room and flaws for a sneak attack. They marched all the way, pressed quickly, and almost in the time of two pillars of incense, they quickly reached the opposite side of Dodor, and then lined up on the spot.

The formation of the Tang army is similar to that of Duoduo, with an infantry battle formation in the middle, and cavalry and heavy infantry on both sides.

However, in their formation, the most conspicuous was at the front, and nearly 6,000 musketeers selected from the two battalions were standing in two rows in front and back.

The Tang Army's battle array, like a precisely combined war machine, pressed towards the Duoduo army array on the opposite side in an extremely orderly and unchaotic manner.

This awe-inspiring and powerful coercive force made the entire army of Duoduo feel invisible pressure. The front army's position, as the Tang army continued to press, began to subconsciously retreat, causing chaos in the entire formation.

"Tell the whole army, don't panic." Duoduo cheered loudly: "The strength of the Tang army is similar to ours, what is there to fear!" Even if you can't defeat them here, if you can drag it to Zilharang to lead the troops, you can attack from both sides and defeat the Tang army, you should have confidence! ”

"Huh!"
