Several large villages of the "Da Yue" army are lined up in the east-west direction, and they are not far from each other.

The military village built a fence with wood and hard bamboo, including tents, straw huts, and various material barriers set up by the Vietnamese army. A thick layer of thin mud was also pasted on the outside of the fence to prevent it from being burned by fire, and there were perforations between the bamboo and wood on it; Bamboo towers have been built outside the entrances of each part of the fence for observation and archery.

There are many ponds and paddy fields in the surrounding area, as well as large pools. People standing on the bamboo pagoda can see a large pool of water in the east with the naked eye.

Ruan Shuai ordered the whole army to line up in the military village to resist the enemy, and use bows and arrows to block the approaching Ming ** team.

The fortifications had been built earlier, but the troops had just retreated from the front, and the deployment of the defense was very hasty. Not long after Ruan Shuai and the others gained a foothold in the military village, they had already seen the Ming army pursuing from the north and was surging forward.

Flags can be seen waving everywhere on the dirt roads between the rice paddies and among the trees and grasses. There were more and more people growing in the columns of the Ming army, and their offensive was fast and crazy.

"Can you hold off the enemy?" I don't know who muttered in fear, but no one could answer the question. Everyone held their bows and arrows, and looked at the distant scene from the holes, most of them with fear on their faces, and some seemed to hold their breath.

However, the Ming army did not rush over immediately, and they began to organize their formations two or three hundred paces away, so that the men and horses lined up with long dragons could find a place to set up. There was not much open space in the north, so the army was arranged in a large array, and each part was divided into large and small phalanxes that were horizontal and vertical. Men on horseback ran in all directions.

In this way, the two sides confronted each other about half a mile apart. Ruan Shuai began to guess that the Ming people were afraid that they were waiting and wanted to pull the artillery up!

He looked up at the sun in the sky, which was still in the east, and it was not yet noon. It was as if the sun was frozen in the sky, and it didn't move for half a day; Today undoubtedly makes people feel that life is like a year, and I am afraid it is the longest day in Ruan Shuai's memory.

At this moment, a military general hurriedly ran over and said, "Dashuai, a Ming ** detoured from the river to Beijiang Mansion City!" The number of people is unknown, there are a lot of people, and looking at the banner is a Ming general surnamed Yin. ”

Ruan Shuai immediately became angry when he heard this, and asked, "Why are you only reporting now?" ”

The general hurriedly said: "The last general has just gotten the news, and the people on our side are only trying to escape, it's too chaotic." ”

Someone next to him said: "The army of Beijiang Mansion is empty, will the person surnamed Yin take advantage of the situation to occupy the city?" Then there is no way back! ”

Ruan Shuai looked at the large number of enemy troops in front of him who were as close as two or three hundred paces, and was speechless for a while.

Several enemy soldiers had begun to move, their phalanxes disbanding, and the long ranks running flanks and back. After the crowd left, sure enough, rows of black holes and copper cannon muzzles appeared!

Then out of nowhere, a burst of military music sounded. Ruan Shuai's face turned black for a while, and he stared at the artillery in the distance, and before he could come back to his senses, the scene of the flames flickering made his eyes hurt.

"Boom...... Boom Boom! "There was a loud thunderous noise, a huge sound that was simply deafening, and the smoke of gunpowder rose in the distance.

After the artillery is fired, people can sometimes see the stone projectiles falling from the air with only their eyes. But the bronze cannon of the Ming ** team is different, as long as the sound is heard, the iron cannonball has already arrived!

There was a thudding sound around them, bamboo and wood fences covered with thin mud, and many places of earth crumbling, and wood chips and debris splashing and flying everywhere. The soldiers of the Great Viet Nam Army, who were waiting behind the fortifications with bows and arrows, had not even come up before the enemy troops came up, and many people were suddenly knocked to the ground by debris; Some flesh and blood blurred, some crying loudly.

The hail-like iron balls not only pierced the fortifications, but also caused damage in the middle of the military fortress. People had no idea how the bullets were flew, but they saw many people fall to the ground, and the huts and tents that had been erected a few days ago suddenly collapsed as if they had suddenly been dug up from the corners.

The scene was terrifying, and the soldiers, who had never heard of such a situation, almost instantly lost the courage to fight the enemy. If you fight face to face, everyone can still fight fiercely, but such a disaster-like thing can't make people willing to wait for their lives, and people just want to escape from such a place.

Ruan Shuai lay behind a perforation, his hands clutching the fence, his mind blank, his body and mind shrouded in pain and despair.

The loud cannon fire continued, and there was a sudden earthquake in the military village, and there was a lot of shouting and clamour.

I don't know how long it took, some Ming infantry advanced in columns, and they had already reached the range of bows and arrows, and they launched horizontal formations one after another. However, the archers of the Great Viet Army, who had been waiting for the battle, had been beaten by the artillery bombardment and dodged on all sides, and behind the overturned fortifications in many places, the soldiers were in disarray, and they could not immediately carry out effective covering fire.

Ruan Shuai still leaned over there, almost unable to say a word, and could only say silently in his heart: I didn't expect it to be like this.

He was eroded by all kinds of negative emotions, and the gap between the expected situation and the reality in front of him was too far for anyone to accept.

The only reason left also made Ruan Shuai understand that the war had reached this point, and it was useless to do anything now; A battlefield with a large number of people, unlike a few people who want to change their tactics and run whenever they want to run, the chaotic battlefield will be uncontrollable for a while.

Outside the "bang, bang, bang......" perforation, rows of firearms flickered, and the smoke was heavy. The dense explosion made Ruan Shuai come back to his senses a little.

Not far away, a soldier shuddered and fell down from behind the fence. Two more people screamed in horror, and some of the Viet Cong soldiers threw away their bows and arrows, turned around and ran, despite the fact that the commander was nearby.

Finally, a general came over with a cat on his waist, grabbed Ruan Shuai and said: "The military village can't hold it, Dashuai go quickly!" ”

Ruan Shuai turned around with a sword, and saw the people, donkeys, and horses in the military village running in panic, and it was noisy, he blushed, raised his sword and shouted: "Kill!" Kill! Kill the people of the Bright Country...... Yes! ”

His thigh suddenly went limp, and then he felt a sharp pain, and a missile pierced his flesh, and the man immediately knelt down on one knee and stuck his sword on the ground, barely steady.

The general and a few of his own soldiers led the horse over, helped Ruan Shuai to get on the horse, and surrounded him and quickly fled south.

Half a day after the start of the war, Ruan Shuai has completely collapsed, and with so many troops in his hands, he has never fought a decent battle. He felt as if he was running backwards and running all the time!

The roads directly south were full of routs. Ruan Shuai and the others had to make a detour and go to Beijiang Fucheng.

After a long time, they could finally see a castle tower from among the treetops. The soldier who came forward to watch came back and said, "Fucheng can't go!" ”

Ruan Shuai ignored the persuasion, endured the severe pain, rode on, and he came to the edge of a forest and looked at the city in the distance. I saw that in the depths of the smoke, a bright dragon flag on a city wall was fluttering, and the city was in chaos.

He looked at it carefully for a while, and roughly understood the situation.

Some of the soldiers of the Da Yue Army who fled from the battlefield did not enter Dazhai to resist at all, and they ran straight to the city of Beijiang Prefecture; And the Ming army that appeared under the city was probably the people and horses surnamed "Yin" who came from the Shangjiang River on the west side. The Ming ** officers and soldiers drove the routed Da Yue army to the city gate, and brutally shot them with firearms, which was simply a massacre.

And the dragon banner on the city wall has shown that the city has fallen, and the city does not know how it was captured. Although the city defense force is empty, the Ming army is fast and only has firearms, so it should not be able to capture the city too quickly; Most of the defenders opened the door by themselves and wanted to run, but the Ming army took advantage of the situation to seize the door.

Because the Ming army did not stop the defenders on all sides. Until now, a city gate has not been blocked by the Ming army, and soldiers of the Great Vietnamese Army continue to escape from that gate.

At this moment, a subordinate general said: "We must run into the woods, first hide in the woods until dark, and then send someone to find a house where no one is located, and pick out the bullets from the wound for the commander." ”

Another said: "Go into the woods, take off your armor and bury it." ”

Ruan Shuai sighed and said regretfully: "Ben Shuai can't stand your loyalty. ”

The general said: "Now all the people of Dayue, each family is their own family, if the marshal has three long and two short, we brothers have nowhere to stay." ”

After the group had consulted, they tied the horse's mouth with strips of cloth, so that the horse's mouth would not open its mouth and call to attract the enemy; They were reluctant to throw away their horses, and they also expected to leave the Bac Giang area on horseback. In the countryside of Da Viet, it is not easy to find a few mounts. The horse was visibly unwell, and kept shaking his head to break free.

The group walked slowly and easily in the woods for a while, but soon there was movement behind them. I don't know if it was the Vietnamese army or the Ming army pursuers who discovered their whereabouts.

"Hiss......" Suddenly a horse broke free of the strip of cloth and neighed.

Ruan Shuai and the others immediately looked at each other. There are some big trees in this forest, but most of them are bushes; Not only could he not escape on horseback, but he also had to use a knife to split a narrow road, and Ruan Shuai was injured in the leg and moved slowly, so he couldn't escape anymore, like a turtle in an urn.

After a while, figures could be seen shaking in the path they had opened up behind them. Behind the leaves, some bright lights could be faintly seen, like fireflies, and the Ming army's firecrackers did not use fire points.

The enemy soldiers finally showed their heads, and the spear and shield men wearing wide-brimmed iron helmets in front of them squatted vigilantly in place, and the people with firearms in the back immediately raised their firearms and faced Ruan Shuai's side.

Everyone stood where they were, and there was nowhere to run. Looking at the shiny iron guns, time seems to freeze in an instant.

"Wow," shouted in an incomprehensible voice. Ruan Shuai could have understood some Chinese, but the shouter was obviously speaking in dialects, and he didn't understand a word.

At this moment, Ruan Shuai's subordinates threw their swords and bows and arrows to the ground.
