Galloping herds of horses hedged in the middle of the battlefield, and some teams of horses rushed in roundabouts. The dust mixed with the mist, and the earth was cloudy, as if it were a swirling stream of water and a whirlpool.

The large formations of infantry troops on the north and south sides also filled the battlefield, and there seemed to be no open space between the two armies, which were all filled with cavalry, and countless men and horses poured together.

In the column of the Han king's army, the foot soldiers in the front row held a shield in one hand and a cherry spear in the other, and walked in a queue with the brothers on the left and right. The King of Han is our king! Win...... The shouts from all over the place barely stopped, and the soldiers seemed to be very fanatical. However, not all of the sergeants who walked in front were impassioned, and some of them were still afraid.

Although most of the soldiers in the vanguard of the Han Dynasty army have experienced more than one tragic battle; But when people go to the battlefield again, they will also feel very scary.

The horse battle ahead is already in sight. A knight of the Han Dynasty lost his long weapon, suddenly pulled out his waist knife, and was stunned to rush close to the enemy cavalry with his horse, and stabbed and stabbed a cavalryman in the abdomen with a single knife nearby! The enemy rider screamed and fell off his horse. The cavalryman with a single sword swept past the enemy cavalry and drew his single sword, as if he had overthrown the enemy cavalry.

The cavalry of the Han army was not as large as the official army, and not all of them were dispatched. Soon the cavalry of the official army rushed through the horse team from everywhere, and the depth in the middle of the battlefield was very small, and the cavalry of the official army could not contain the horse, so they rushed directly to the infantry of the Han army.

"Bang!" The two enemy horsemen crashed into the infantry column of the Han King Army at the same time, and the spear and shield soldiers in the front row and the two pikemen in the back were directly knocked over! Crazy screams and neighing of horses rang out. Then a horse that came finally stopped its speed in front of the formation, and the horse neighed and turned to the right, and the front half of the horse was lifted into the air; The knight on horseback clamped his legs tightly, grabbed the reins of the horse, and the man almost didn't fall over, and his horse sword was raised high in the air.

A soldier of the Han Dynasty in the queue suddenly shouted, and rushed out with a gun and shield. When the knight saw the coming, he roared in horror, but the sword in his right hand could not reach his left flank. The Han Wangjun infantry threw away their shields, raised their cherry spears with both hands, and stabbed at the waist of the enemy horseman! Knight: "Ah! The ground let out a scream.

"Boom, boom, boom......" The Hanwang cannon on the high ground behind the pond fired another volley, and a piercing whistling sound sounded in the air. The soldiers looked up at the sky, but they could not see the shells, and by the time the people heard the whistling, the shells had already hit the opposite side of the large array.

Another group of cavalry rushed past the Han king's army and horses, and they rushed towards the front of the infantry formation, shouting while reining in their horses.

The nearby phalanx of Han Wang's infantry stopped advancing, the military general shouted, and the infantry in the first three rows squatted down. "Bang bang ......" A whole row of openers sounded intensively, and the officers and soldiers not far away screamed miserably, some of them trembled on horseback, and several people fell off their horses. Seeing that the three rows of spears, shields, and pikemen in front of the Han king's army, the cavalry did not continue to come, and soon reined in their horses and turned around, and fled.

The infantry and cavalry of both sides continued to squeeze and approach, and the chaos on the battlefield began to spread, and several places became infantry and cavalry melee. Some of the cavalry were pulled off their horses and even got into a scuffle with the infantry.

The scattered infantry of the Han army, once the threat was reduced, ran to the back, and the neatly prepared follow-up phalanx advanced up to continue the fight. The firecrackers on the battlefield flickered everywhere, and the sound of horses' hooves, shouts, and weapons clashing mingled with the sound of bows and arrows, and the whole land was only a loud noise of "buzzing ......".

Originally, the artillery position of the Han Wang's army was only two or three hundred steps away from the front of the official army! But it was just these two or three hundred steps, and the officers and troops sent a large number of infantry and cavalry to attack, but they couldn't advance at all! Only the casualties on both sides are mounting.

Every once in a while, more than 40 Han King cannons would launch a salvo that shook the battlefield, and it has not stopped until now. All the horses behind the officers and soldiers were exposed to the range of the artillery as the whole army advanced the attack.

The rear of the official army in the north has begun to break and flee in pieces, and this scene is afraid that it will not be able to hold the moment when the front line captures the artillery of the Han army......

Two or three hundred steps! It's like it's on the horizon.

At the southern foot of Hongmu Mountain in the east, the sound of all kinds of guns, firearms, and neighing horses also came faintly. After the roundabout infantry of the official army broke through Wang Bin's department, it was already close to the right flank of the main force of the Han army; They are fighting with the infantry formations that form a defensive formation, as well as the cavalry.

On the flat land on the west side of Hongmu Mountain, the two sides fought with hundreds of thousands of horses, and the situation seemed to develop faster!

More than a dozen cannon shots rang out in front and back of the official and army arrays, and the huge cannonballs fired by the Hongwu cannon roared in the air, all of which smashed into the direction of the Han Wangjun artillery array.

However, the artillery of the Han army's artillery array was very sparsely arranged, and the dozen or so guns of the official army were not fired at one time, and they also hit anything; Some of the shells even smashed into the pond in front of the hillside, causing huge waves of water, and the prodigal son and the splash flew into the air, and the shore was drenched in a damp water.

At this time, the long-range fire of heavy artillery could not be accurate to a few steps at all, and could only hit an approximate position. Whether it is the Hongwu cannon of the official army or the Han King cannon of the Han Wang army, it is all the same effect. Whether you hit a small target or not depends on luck...... Or hundreds of cannons are covered by a salvo.

After a while, the artillery of the officers and soldiers fired a volley, and the huge cannonballs smashed into the dry mud ground, and the dust of the clods of soil splashed violently, as if they had exploded. There was a loud bang, and a Hanwang cannon was smashed by a stone bullet and jumped up, falling to the ground and rolling straight away. The two soldiers around were injured by the broken stones and screamed loudly, and one soldier was hit in the head by the bullet Hanwang cannon and fell to the ground and died.

The reloaded Hanwang cannon of "Boom Boom Boom ......" emitted a huge roar one after another, and the flames flickered and sprayed in the sound of the cannon!

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu led a group of cavalry to the rear of the front formation, he watched the hazy scene in the depths of the gunsmoke, mist and dust, and gradually exhaled a relaxed breath from his mouth.

"Win." Zhu Gaoxu said.

The officers and troops are shaped like a large array of glaives, the depth is too large, and the men and horses are dense, after being fired by the Han King Cannon several rounds, it is simply a living tragedy! The elite officers and soldiers who originally only wanted to get by couldn't bear it, and there were more and more people who broke and fled in the rear, and they spread in all directions.

The enemy's front line was full of men and horses, and the troops were very thick, but the attack was weak and the array was turbulent, and there was no progress at all! The front battle relied on the advantage of troops, constantly rotating to resist, and the speed of the collapse and consumption of the officers and troops was very large, otherwise it would have collapsed early!

The fighting continues, and the fierce fighting has not stopped. But any general can see that the outcome of this battle has been decided; Unless a meteorite falls from the sky and smashes into the Han Dynasty's army, the gods will not be able to save the official army!

may have seen too many scenes of corpses all over the field, and at this time, Zhu Gaoxu's relaxation and pleasure occupied the main senses of the body.

From the "battle to combat crime" that began in the middle of the previous year, to the first month of this year...... In less than two years, Zhu Gaoxu fought from Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Guangxi, and Huguang, as if he had attacked Zhili in a blink of an eye! The journey from Huguang to Zhili lasted more than 2,000 miles, and it only took more than ten days.

But the war is finally over today! Zhu Gaoxu didn't think that after Xu Huizu's defeat in this battle, there would be a siege battle in the Beijing Division.

Zhu Gaoxu sat on horseback and did not leave the battlefield, but he no longer cared about the situation on the battlefield, he looked thoughtful, as if he was thinking about something else.

…… Crowds running away in a frenzy, permeating everywhere! Some people who fell to the ground were repeatedly trampled and shouted loudly, and the number of casualties from the stampede continued to increase. On the huge battle array, the huge crowd fled in panic like a fire in the middle of the city.

The civil and military forces around Xu Huizu were angrily scolding and scolding, but it was useless, who could stop tens of thousands of people from collapsing and fleeing? Xu Huizu didn't do anything himself, just stared at the dusty battlefield and the chaotic scene in a daze.

At this time, the sun had not risen too high and was still hanging above Hongmu Mountain.

I don't know what's going on, Xu Huizu always feels a little trance-like, and feels that the reality is very strange and fast, as if he is in a dream; The light is bizarre and bizarre, making it difficult to catch up. Although dreams are imaginative, they are often very child's play; Isn't this exactly the case in this general battle in which the officers and troops invested more than 100,000 troops and outnumbered the enemy?

Maybe it was a dream, but I couldn't wake up.

Those who are shocked, angry, nervous, worried, helpless...... In the time that the occupation lasted, Xu Huizu's violent emotional fluctuations had passed at this time. Now Xu Huizu's heart is very weird; It's like when he was doing something, and he was trying to do it, but before he could taste it, someone told him that it was over!

Xu Huizu kept meditating, why did he lose so badly! In fact, in addition to the sharp artillery of the rebels, Xu Huizu felt that he also made mistakes...... He suddenly thought that the flanks of the officers and troops at the eastern foot of Hongmu Mountain were roundabout, why was it so smooth? Maybe the rebels' forces over there are simply a feint! The purpose was just to make Xu Huizu think that the tactics of pinching the right flank of the rebels had succeeded, and he was in a hurry to bring the main frontal force close to the rebel artillery array!

Otherwise, if the rebels really wanted to defend their right flank, they could abandon the eastern foothills of Hongmu; A defensive formation was set up at the southern foot close to the large formation to facilitate reinforcements. When the officers and soldiers approached the rebel formation, they encountered such resistance!

Xu Huizu slapped his head, feeling that he had every chance to improve his guard, but he neglected the details of the eastern foothills of Hongmu Mountain!

"Those who surrender will not die, and those who do not surrender will be killed!" A shout was heard in the distance.

Xu Huizu came back to his senses slightly, and when he looked south, he saw that the rebel cavalry had already pursued and killed. The cavalry of the officers and soldiers was actually more numerous, but most of them rushed to run at this time.

"Dashuai, let's go!" The ministry general persuaded.

Xu Huizu said coldly: "Where can I go?" ”

A general suddenly grabbed the reins of Xu Huizu and dragged the war horse to turn around, and the generals and personal soldiers surrounded him. Someone shouted, "Escort the commander out of here!" ”

The generals loyally protected Xu Huizu, and everyone rode away together.

Xu Huizu did not object, he knew in his heart that these generals still wanted to get themselves back and give instructions to the imperial court.
