When the bonfire was lit and the figures of a large number of officers and soldiers were illuminated, on the west side, which was not too far away, was the artillery camp position of the Xingtian Army, and at this time, Huang Shengqiang had already stood next to a cannon in the center for a long time, and the rat whiskers on his chin were almost plucked out by himself, and he walked around outside the canopy with an anxious face, regardless of the rain wetting his armor, he had been silently watching in the direction of the preset battlefield, and now when the bonfires were suddenly lit, Huang Shengqiang shook his wet cloak, With a wild laugh, he jumped back under the canopy like a monkey and shouted, "Ignition cannon!" Free Fire! ……”

In fact, these cannons in the artillery battalion have been pre-aimed by the gunners before dark, and the shells have been loaded, but in order to prevent moisture, they have not pierced the oil paper wrapped in gunpowder in the barrel of the cannon, and inserted the medicine primer of the goose feather tube! Basically, each cannon has already set the position of the shelling, and basically included that area in the scope of their shelling, and they can fire the cannon at the slightest order, and they don't even need to aim.

The gunner then pounced on the cannon, stabbed the medicine bag at the end of the barrel with an awl, and instantly inserted a goose feather tube filled with gunpowder.

Only a loud bang was heard, and a dazzling fire rose on the artillery array, and a cannonball flew out even if it was whistling, and smashed directly into the crowd of officers and soldiers exposed to the firelight, and then under the leadership of this cannon, the rest of the cannons also roared one after another, and the whole artillery array was like a boiling pot, and the flashes of the muzzle could be said to be one after another, and the illuminated artillery array was also bright, and all kinds of artillery shells were mixed in the rain and hit the officers and soldiers.

Everything was pre-set, and Sun Chuanting and Wu Sangui did crash into this trap in accordance with the preset of the Xingtian Army, in order to be light, this time the officers and soldiers did not even push the cart, only carried some shields, so in the face of the falling cannonballs, they could only scatter and flee in all directions in addition to being lifted away.

At this time, a group of soldiers of the Xingtian Army also began to enter the preset position under the command of their respective generals, and the musketeers still stepped forward in turn, and began to fire at the officers and soldiers who were illuminated by the firelight on the battlefield, but because of the rain, this salvo appeared to be much weaker, and many of the musketeers failed to fire after pulling off the bracket, but they did not fire, only a small number of musketeers successfully fired the flintlock muskets, which made their firepower much weaker, and some of the soldiers who did not fire the first shot, Quickly turned on the nose of the machine, and a second firing came quickly, and a small number of firing guns were fired, making the sound of guns not as neat as usual.

In their opinion, under this kind of ghost weather, it is impossible to use the bird guns anymore, but the Xingtian Army that blocked the road still fired the "bird guns", which is really a hell of a thing, compared with the killings caused by the guns, this psychological shock is even more unbearable for the officers and soldiers, and many officers and soldiers immediately turned around and ran like frightened birds, making the already chaotic formation even more chaotic.

At this time, the entire official army was completely chaotic, although Sun Chuanting was in the formation, trying his best to stabilize the situation and continue to supervise the army to break through, but at this time his military order could not be issued, and the soldiers who ordered the order could not effectively convey the military order to the generals under such circumstances, and the generals were also wrapped in the chaos at this time, like a flat boat in a huge wave, they could only go with the flow, so the entire official army had lost its command at this time.

Some officers and soldiers did not believe in evil and swore to rush out, so they attacked the array of the Xingtian Army, and some officers and soldiers did not know where to rush at this time, so they turned around like headless flies, and a large number of officers and soldiers scattered and fled, and they couldn't care about the direction at all.

In the end, the two armies still had a hand-to-hand encounter, and the soldiers of the Xingtian Army were already lined up in the rain, waiting for the battle, and at this time they no longer hid their whereabouts, lit the lampball torches, illuminated the battlefield, and each person's arm was tied with a white cloth, in order to distinguish between the enemy and me, this is already Xiao Tianjian's habitual method, in the dark, only this kind of white light can be seen clearly, their armor At this time, in the dark, they can't distinguish between the enemy and the enemy. It is easy to cause large-scale accidental injuries.

As soon as the two armies fought, their officers and soldiers were in chaos, and in horror they felt that the people around them were enemies, and some people couldn't bear the psychological pressure, so they simply went crazy and waved knives and guns to greet the people around them, whether it was their own people or enemies, once someone was attacked, they would immediately counterattack, so after fighting with the Xingtian Army, more officers and soldiers actually didn't know who they were fighting with. It's just that they are waving their weapons in vain, attacking any active targets that appear around them, either cutting them down or being cut down by them, to put it more vividly, this is no longer a breakthrough, but has developed their chaos into a battalion roar, in which case it is impossible for anyone to control these crazy officers and soldiers anymore.

This battle can be said to have been chaotic until dawn, it can be regarded as gradually stabilized, the rain also gradually stopped in the second half of the night, on the battlefield overnight, the shouting and killing howls never stopped, many officers and soldiers were not injured, but they were also tired and exhausted and paralyzed on the ground, the entire encirclement, everywhere were covered with the corpses of officers and soldiers and living officers and soldiers, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, but the smell of gunpowder had completely dissipated by this time, and the artillery array was not long after the artillery was fired, was ordered by Xiao Tianjian to stop firing artillery, because the re-firing of artillery has no effect except killing more people, the officers and soldiers have completely collapsed in the dark night, all they have to do is to guard the defense lines everywhere, and it is enough not to let some officers and soldiers take advantage of the chaos to escape.

In fact, the frontal white-knuckle battle between the two armies this night was not very tragic, at the beginning, some fierce officers and soldiers also launched a desperate assault, trying to escape through the encirclement, but they launched an attack in an unorganized form, although fierce, but there was essentially no attack power, in the face of the array of the Xingtian Army, their sporadic charge, just to send them to death, even if the Xingtian Army did not shoot them, only with rows of spears, they could only drink hatred and fall in front of the array of the Xingtian Army, More often than not, it is actually cannibalism between officers and soldiers, and a large number of officers and soldiers can be said not to have died at the hands of the Xingtian Army, but completely killed them by their own robes.

In this case, even if Xiao Tianjian knew that the battle had been won, he did not dare to send troops into the battlefield, so he could only helplessly watch the officers and soldiers fight on their own in the periphery, during which he shouted several times to let them immediately drop their weapons and surrender, but because most of the officers and soldiers were too nervous, even if some people wanted to lose the guy and surrender, but as soon as they put down the guy, they were cut down to the ground, so scared that the rest of the people did not dare to lose the guy, and could only continue to "fight" with the people around them until they died.

After dawn, a large number of surviving officers and soldiers gradually recovered from their madness, shouting to each other not to kill, their own people, so that they gradually stopped, but as soon as they stopped, they were all tired and lay down together, lying everywhere.

The ground has long been turned into a country of Ze, trampled into a muddy pond by a large number of people and horses, but the muddy water is indeed blood-red, and some of the earth pits are still soaked with dead people.

After this night's chaos, no one in the officers and soldiers still has combat effectiveness, and no one is willing to continue to resist, Xiao Tianjian only ordered the soldiers under his command to begin to enter the battlefield to clear the field, designate a large area to gather the officers and soldiers who are still alive together, and then begin to clean up the remaining casualties of the officers and soldiers, the seriously injured end the pain for them, and the lightly injured help them down for treatment, since the prisoner of war policy has been promised, then it must be implemented.

Xiao Tianjian specially instructed everyone to pay attention to the whereabouts of two people, one is the superintendent Sun Chuanting, and the other is Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Liaodong.

It took two days to clean up the entire battlefield, and it was considered that the battlefield was cleaned up, this time more than 40,000 officers and soldiers led by Sun Chuanting, except for the initial encirclement, ran away from about a few thousand people, and the rest were basically all annihilated here, after the war, more than 26,000 people were captured, and thousands of officers and soldiers who killed each other killed each other, and the captured baggage armor did not need to be said in detail, in short, how many Sun Chuanting and Wu Sangui brought were all lost here, and became the trophies of the Xingtian Army.

As for Sun Chuanting and Wu Sangui, who Xiao Tianjian paid attention to, they also found their whereabouts the next day, Sun Chuanting was escorted by the standard camp family, killed out of the center of chaos, tried to break out, but was blocked by Luo Li's generals, after a fight, the whole army was annihilated, Sun Chuanting was also injured and captured, originally with Sun Chuanting's personality, at this time, he would never survive, the battle was like this, Sun Chuanting couldn't accept it at all, and the breakthrough was a complete failure, this battle can be said to be too miserable and miserable!

So after Sun Chuanting was injured, he saw that there was no hope of breaking through, so he raised his sword and tried to commit suicide, but he was robbed of his sword by two family members, and before Sun Chuanting struggled to continue to seek death, he was caught by the soldiers who flocked to the Xingtian Army, but the situation was very chaotic at that time, Sun Chuanting was changed into a military academy armor by his subordinates, and was not recognized on the spot after being caught by the Xingtian Army, so he was mixed in the surrender and was sent outside, so that after the war, everyone's main attention was focused on the battlefield, So he was not found for a while, and it was not until the morning of the second day after the end of the war that Sun Chuanting could not find his death, and he was not willing to pretend to be a pawn like this, so he reported his identity among the prisoners of war, and then he was guarded alone by the soldiers of the Xingtian Army.
