Lu Xiangsheng followed Wang Qiang out of the palace, came to the outer courtyard, and climbed the steps to the enemy tower at the corner of the courtyard wall, which was very high and could overlook the whole of the Special Administrative Region. Wang Qiang beckoned Lu Xiangsheng to sit on the stone bench on the top floor of the enemy building, and dozens of personal soldiers immediately dispersed to guard the two in the middle. After all, Wang Qiang had not really experienced the war, and when he saw so many Qing troops killed, he really felt the horror of the fierce battle, and he couldn't help but feel a little timid in his heart, and said secretly: "There are so many Tartars, even if you stand there and let me cut them one by one, you have to cut them for a few days." Can our militia stand up to this? In front of Lu Xiangsheng, he forced himself to calm down, shook the fan in his hand, and said with a dry smile: "Haha, Lord Lu, I have handed over the war to Li Gang and them, let's drink tea and chat by ourselves, if you are bored, why don't we play a game of Go?" But I'm a stinky chess basket, I'm afraid I'm not your opponent. ”

Lu Xiangsheng saw that the Qing army was fierce, and he was anxious, but now he had no soldiers in his hands, and he had to rely on the militia to resist the enemy. So he said: "Okay, since Lord Wang has this Yaxing, Lu is willing to accompany him." ”

The entourage brought Go, and the two set up a battle to fight. The surrounding soldiers saw that the two adults were playing chess so calmly, and the military was relieved for a while.

At this time, the Qing army had already assembled a whole group one mile north of the SAR. The commander of the Qing army, Dolgon, rode his horse to a high slope to observe the movements of the Special Zone. After a bitter battle yesterday morning, although the Shanxi battalion, the main force of the Ming army, was basically wiped out, the most elite forward battalion of the Qing army also lost most of it, and with the losses in the early stage and the scattered troops, the troops under his direct command were less than 40,000. The soldiers and horses of the Ming army, which were several times their own, were coming from all over the country, and the Qing army was in danger of being trapped. Before this trip to the south, the Qing army's spies had reconnoitred the situation in the Special Administrative Region, and there was no strong city or regular official army to defend it, only 5,000 militiamen. However, as soon as he joined the militia yesterday, he found that the militia was brave in combat, skillful in formation, sharp in firearms, and extremely strong in combat, and it was more difficult to deal with than the regular officers and soldiers, and the Ming army came out of thin air with such a new force, which undoubtedly increased the risk of the Qing army. However, at this time, the Qing army was ready to send arrows, and he had no choice but to make a desperate bet and destroy the Tongzhou Special Economic Zone first!

Dolgon saw that the troops had already formed a formation, but did not see any Ming troops coming out to meet the battle, he raised his eyes to look, only to see that the flags and drums in the SAR had died down, and he was silent, and he did not know what tricks the Ming army was playing.

Dolgon bowed and said, "General Che, the militia is well-trained and has powerful firearms, so you must not underestimate the enemy. You lead the troops and horses of the headquarters to test the reality first, bring more shields, bows and arrows, be more careful, if you encounter a large Ming army, do not fight with it, as long as you find out where the main force of the Ming army is ambushed, the commander will immediately command the Chinese army soldiers and horses to follow up the attack. ”

"Order!" Chebai received the command, immediately returned to his team, and shouted: "Brothers! The militia is no match for us at all, the gold and silver treasures and beautiful Han women in the big bazaar are waiting for us, brothers and I will kill them! At the sound of an order, the iron cavalry of the 5,000 forward battalion rushed towards the SAR like a whirlwind.

Li Gang observed the enemy situation on the arrow tower and commanded the defense, he saw that the Qing army only had a few thousand men and horses to attack, and knew that this was to come to test, he waved the command flag, and ordered the Qing army not to bombard with artillery for the time being, and put the Qing army in the open space between the arrow towers before fighting. This is the ambush position preset by the militia group, in which a trap is dug, a mine is laid, a deer is set up, a triphorse rope is set up, and there is a large net specially used against the cavalry, this net is made of a mixture of leather thread and hemp rope, spread on the ground, covered with floating soil, the war horse stepped on the net, the horse's hooves were entangled in the front and back, and it would fall.

The Qing army had rushed through the arrow tower in a blink of an eye, and came to the open field, and the people who were tripped by various obstacles set up there turned on their horses, and became a mess, some fell into the pit, some were entangled in the big net, the horses lost their front hooves, fell to the ground, and the cavalry that swarmed in the follow-up, the men and horses trampled on each other, and there were countless casualties. At this time, only a trumpet sounded, and the figures of countless militia soldiers immediately flashed in the arrow tower, bows, arrows, crossbows and arrows rained down, mixed with the roar of muskets, and the Qing army in the open space became a live target.

The Che Bai was in danger, while waving a big knife to block the crossbow arrows, while shouting and directing the soldiers to clear the barricades, the Qing army calmed down from the panic, the soldiers on both sides held shields to protect, some soldiers shot arrows to fight back, and the soldiers in the middle braved the rain of arrows to clear the barricades.

Seeing that Chebai had already engaged in battle with the Ming army, Dorgon was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he ordered 10,000 horses from the right army to follow up with Chebai. After half an hour, the road ahead was opened, and the forward battalion of the Qing army and the 10,000 horses of the right army braved the arrows on both sides and shouted like locusts to enter the special zone.

To the south of the SAR are the dormitories of migrant workers and the barracks of militia soldiers, and the streets and alleys are crisscrossed, and the streets are lined with shops.

The Qing army quickly passed through the gap in the arrow tower, and the tide generally poured into the special zone, and no militia came out to resist. The purpose of the Qing army's visit was to loot property, but when they saw that there was no resistance in the SAR, they immediately scattered in groups and went out into the streets and alleys to search for property and women.

In accordance with the previous deployment, the militia soldiers were scattered in the streets and alleys in units of 10 people, relying on the cover of houses to attack the Qing army. The Qing army was unfamiliar with the terrain and ran around the streets, only to see cold guns and arrows from the militia everywhere on the walls and roofs, and when they dismounted and entered the house, they found that there was no one inside. When encountering a small group of Qing troops, the militia will suddenly come out of the alley, slash and kill for a while, and when the Qing army arrives, they will withdraw from the secret gate.

Although the Qing army had a large number of troops, it was unfamiliar with the terrain and lost its unified command, and in the street battles, the cavalry could not give full play to its superiority at all. Chebai led his own soldiers to turn two streets, and found that the houses on both sides were empty, there was no one at all, and there was no gold and silver treasure, and the roofs on both sides released cold guns and arrows from time to time, and his own soldiers were shot and killed more than a dozen in a blink of an eye, he found that the momentum was not right, obviously the Ming army had prepared for guerrilla street battles in advance, so it could only be in vain, he hurriedly ordered the assembly team, and the herald blew the assembly of the military trumpet, The beaten and dazed Qing troops withdrew from the streets and alleys one after another to assemble in the empty field in the center of the SAR. It took a lot of effort to bring the team together. He saw from a distance the banner waving on the enemy tower of Wang Qiang's house in the center of the Special Administrative Region, and there were soldiers guarding it, and he knew that it must be the hiding place of the commander of the militia group, and it was estimated that valuable items were also hidden there, so he waved his army to attack Wang Qiang's mansion.

Wang Qiang's palace courtyard wall is tall and sturdy, outside the courtyard is a circle of open land, but also placed deer, wire nets and other obstacles, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Li Gang personally led a thousand militia soldiers to defend, they know that this must be the focus of the Qing army's attack, so they have long been fully prepared.

The Qing soldiers surrounded the government group, a part of the Qing army shot with bows and arrows, the other part of the Qing army held shields and ladders to charge the government office, the militia soldiers stood on the wooden frame, across the courtyard wall, condescending to fight back, for a while the arrows shuttled like rain, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the two sides fought fiercely in one place. Although there were many Qing soldiers, the terrain was unfavorable, and the brigade could not be used, the soldiers of the militia fought bravely, relying on the courtyard wall and the enemy building, and occupied the advantageous location, and the musket team of the militia was also defending in the palace, and the muskets kept roaring, and the gunpowder bags exploded one after another in the ranks of the Qing army, which made the Qing soldiers tremble. Seeing that the government was under siege, the militia groups that had been fighting guerrillas in the SAR also rushed to reinforcements one after another, relying on private houses to sneak attack from behind the Qing army. The two sides fought fiercely for most of the hour, and the Qing army suffered heavy losses, and the open space outside the government was full of corpses of the Qing army. The Qing army rushed to Tongzhou overnight, and even had breakfast on the horse, and was already very tired, and now it has been unable to attack for a long time, morale is low, and the attack is becoming more and more weak. Suddenly, he found that on the enemy building in front of him, there were two people actually playing chess, one of them was clearly his own defeated general Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng was opposite a young man, with beautiful eyebrows, a plain robe, shaking a fan in his hand, looking at the situation and age, it should be the special minister of the special zone mentioned in the report, the little eunuch Wang Qiang. Seeing that the two of them were talking and laughing, their expressions were calm, pointing and pointing only concerned about the chessboard in front of them, and they actually ignored the fierce battle between the two sides, and couldn't help but feel on fire in their hearts, and said in their hearts: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, I will shoot you to death first, and see that you are still free there!" Thinking of this, he secretly took off his bow, drew three arrows, and threw three arrows at the enemy tower with one leaning back. Chebai is known as the first warrior of Manchuria, the archery is exquisite, can pass through Yang in 100 steps, he shoots three arrows in a row to the enemy tower, the first two arrows are shot at the two personal soldiers guarding Wang Qiang's side, in order to force them to dodge, can not save Wang Qiang. And the third arrow went straight to Wang Qiang's front door.

But said that Wang Qiang, pretending to be calm and playing chess with Lu Xiangsheng, in fact, he had been playing drums in his heart, especially when the Qing army was swarming to attack the palace, his hands were shaking and his heart trembled, and his words were abrupt. Lu Xiangsheng was calm and played chess seriously. Wang Qiang's chess skills were not high, and he was restless, so he was soon killed in a mess, seeing that a big dragon of his own was about to be killed, he wanted to play tricks, he wanted to divert Lu Xiangsheng's attention, secretly changed a chess piece, deliberately turned his head to look downstairs, and said: "Interesting!" As soon as he turned his head sideways, he saw a carved arrow coming at him, and he was frightened, "Oops! With a bang, he hurriedly fell from the stone bench, and the arrow flew by grazing his chin, and the iron flute on the end of the arrow scraped his jaw open, and blood immediately came out. This time frightened Lu Xiangsheng and the guards next to him, and everyone gathered around him to check the injury.

Seeing Wang Qiang falling, he thought he had succeeded, and stood on his horse and shouted: "Warriors of the Eight Banners, the enemy's commander has been shot dead by me, everyone rush with all your might!" When the Qing army heard that the commander of the Ming army had died, their morale was greatly boosted for a while, and they rushed up with a shout, and the officers and soldiers of the militia were in chaos.

Wang Qiang was frightened, fell to the ground and closed his eyes, under the continuous shouts of everyone, he opened his eyes and moved his head, it's okay! As soon as he touched his chin, it hurt hotly, knowing that he had just suffered a little skin injury, he heard the shout of chelation, the fire hit up, and he gritted his teeth in anger, he jumped up from the ground with a puff, and copied the Shang Fang sword that Lu Xiangsheng placed next to him in his hand, separated everyone and rushed to the edge of the enemy building, and scolded at the angry break below: "Che Bai!" I am your eighth ancestor! Dig up the ancestral graves of your eighteenth generation, and sell your mother, your sister, your sister, and your wife all to the kiln, you bastard, a traitor, you will only hurt people with secret arrows, grandson! If you have the ability, you will come up, and Lao Tzu will beat you all over the ground looking for teeth! ”

Wang Qiang took out the scolding of the Beijing gangsters, bowed his mouth, how to be Wang Qiang's opponent, and only pointed at Wang Qiang angrily and screamed.

When all the soldiers of the militia saw that the commander was safe, they all calmed down, and when they heard Wang Qiang scolding people for being vicious and vicious, their hearts were very happy. The Qing soldiers were very unhappy, and said in their hearts: "Our general Che has not grown wings, how can we go up!" If you have the ability, you can come down! "Morale suddenly went down again.

Li Gang saw that Aobai's attention was on Wang Qiang, so he took a hard bow and shot an arrow at Aobai, but Aobai was unguarded, and was nailed to the shoulder by an arrow, and immediately the blood flowed like an infusion! The barge retreated, and the Qing army was in chaos.

When Wang Qiang saw that Ao Bai was defeated, he waved his sword and shouted: "Brothers of the militia! That Ao Bai ran away,! Kill Lao Tzu hard! ”

He was just angry for a while, and shouted out casually, but the soldiers thought that Wang Qiang had given the order for a general attack, so they opened the door of the mansion and rushed out.

Seeing this, Li Gang immediately made a decision and immediately ordered the trumpet to launch a general attack. Three rapid and high-pitched military trumpets sounded in the sky over Tongzhou!

Shang Dayong, who was in ambush in the west of the city, was worried about Wang Qiang's safety, and he had been impatient to wait, and when he heard the trumpet, he immediately turned over and got on his horse, and the machete danced into the air, shouting: "Brothers, follow me to kill the Tartars!" And then it went out like a whirlwind!

Hearing the sound of the trumpets, the militia soldiers guarding various parts of the SAR came out of the tunnels and bunkers one after another, shouting and gathering from all directions, and the 3,000 militiamen hiding in the trade market also heard the sound and killed them.

Li Gang got off the arrow tower and took the lead in leading the militia soldiers from the government into the enemy formation. This Li Gang is also a strong general, with a bright silver gun in his hand, which makes him superb, rushing into the enemy formation like a tiger entering a flock, and the Qing soldiers who killed him scattered and fled. Lu Xiangsheng, who was watching the battle on the enemy tower, saw the heroism of the militia soldiers, and his heart was warm, he bowed his hand to Wang Qiang and said, "Lord Wang, please command here, and Lu will also kill him for a while." After speaking, he didn't wait for Wang Qiang to express his position, and hurriedly went down the enemy building, and the soldiers of the Shanxi battalion were already neatly dressed and eager to wait below. Lu Xiangsheng picked up a big iron spear from the weapon rack, got on the war horse, and didn't say much, just waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Shanxi battalion shouted and killed them from the side door.

The Qing army was already demoralized and in a mess, but now it was suddenly attacked by several Ming troops, only to feel that all directions were full of the shouts of the Ming army, and it was not clear how many people there were in the Ming army. Slaughtered.

Wang Qiang was in high spirits, standing on the enemy tower brandishing his sword, and shouting hoarsely: "Kill!" Brothers kill! Don't let go of a Tartar, avenge the fathers and folks in your hometown! Shouting so loudly that his voice was hoarse, he didn't rest until the Qing army was defeated.

The Qing army camp outside the SAR was already a sea of fire, and Dolgon never dreamed that the militia would be equipped with artillery, so the camp was very close to the SAR and completely exposed to the range of the artillery. Having lost its establishment and becoming a pot of porridge, Dolgon saw that the general trend had gone, so he ordered the whole army to retreat, and tens of thousands of Qing troops were defeated like a mountain, rushing to flee north, trampling on each other, and suffering countless casualties!

Li Gangshang Dayong led the troops to chase and kill, and several reinforcements from the Ming army who arrived in advance also came out to join the war group, and chased the Qing army to the outside of Zunhua City, and only collected the troops and returned to the camp at sunset. Dolgon ordered the Qing army to withdraw from Zunhua overnight and retreat all the way to Guanwai, and the fourth southern invasion of the Manchu Qing ended in military failure.
