The current battle is okay, compared to the tragic scene of him and Ao Bai being pressed and beaten every time they encounter the Huaxia army, Duolong is definitely in the case of absolute superiority in troops, as long as his soldiers advance to the enemy, they can destroy these rebel soldiers who have fled thousands of miles in one fell swoop by virtue of their strength advantage.

Their will to fight was certainly not as firm as the Manchu soldiers they led, the enemy had already collapsed twice, and with a single effort, the enemy would be routed, and when the time came, all the cavalry would go out in pursuit, and soon the battle would be won.

"Send people to urge, let them intensify their attack, speed up, don't be so slow, they must get close to the killing distance of the bow and arrow as soon as possible. Otherwise, let their generals come to me. Doron shouted viciously to the herald beside him.

The herald immediately conveyed the news to the herald outside, and then the herald rushed away with Doron's order.

Doron held up the clairvoyant, which was a monocular copper telescope given to him by the Dutch, pulled it open, and looked to both sides, his artillery was suppressed by the enemy, and there were only three of the ten red-coated cannons left, one in front of him, and two more on the hills of six miles behind, and which one in front was on the hills of four miles, on the hills behind him not far behind.

In order to drag these twelve cannons, he scavenged all the cattle in Liaocheng, otherwise the war horses and pack horses could not be pulled, or they fell back into the soft ground, only the oxen had great strength and could pull these thousands of pounds of cannons.

His marching speed was also slowed down, and the artillery brought by the new army town was about the same as the cannon of the rebels on the opposite side, and the heaviest was only a twelve-pounder cannon weighing 2,500 pounds, but it was a little little, because the firearms troops in their establishment were too small, only a mere 4,000 troops, and the combined firearms troops of the two new army towns were only 8,000 troops, and the total strength was only half of the rebels on the opposite side.

The others are all auxiliary and supportive, as well as those Manchu lords who don't know how to form a new military town, and those Manchu lords have ingenious cold weapon troops that they stuffed in, for this, Duolong, who has fought countless times with the Huaxia army, still has experience, but although these troops are under his command, how to organize them, and how many troops are not determined by him.

So he had no choice, knowing that their firepower was as thin as that, so he brought the previously captured Ming army cannons and the red-coated cannons made by the Ming army in the warehouse in Liaocheng.

As for the rebels on the other side, he knew that they had reorganized the troops of the new military town into the same as Hong Chengchou's new army town troops, and Hong Chengchou's Qing army's new army town troops were modeled after the Huaxia Army, so there were more firearms troops than cold weapons troops, but when Hong Chengchou was established, it was just that the Huaxia Army had just changed its name from the Jinhua Righteous Army to the Huaxia Army, so almost the entire army of the current Huaxia Army was a firearms unit, and they still retained quite a lot of cold weapon troops, and they did not pay too much attention to the specialization and simplification of the firearms troops.

"Boom," a shell suddenly exploded in the chamber, and one of the last two red-coated cannons on the artillery position of the Qing army suddenly exploded because the soldiers put too much gunpowder, and the cannon that could not bear it suddenly exploded, taking away more than a dozen Qing soldiers and civilians who were operating, and the remaining artillery did not dare to operate, and they threw down the cannon and fled.

They were then slashed by the Manchu cavalry, who were loyal to carry out the order to supervise the war.

Doron has the heart to kill those cavalrymen, so you can drive them back, you just kill them, who will operate the cannons, who knows how much gunpowder to put in them, the cannons can hit the enemy's positions instead of exploding.

With the occurrence of this accident, other artillery of the Qing army and the new army who operated the artillery fled one after another, and the result became even more chaotic, after being driven back, many people were out of order, and put more gunpowder, or more shells, in short, those artillery accidents one after another, in an instant, more than a dozen artillery pieces exploded, casualties of nearly 100 artillerymen, the artillerymen became more timid, so mistakes appeared frequently, the bombed artillery fired every few shots, and the artillery of the Qing army suddenly weakened.

Followed by Tian Bin's artillerymen put more artillery into bombarding the Han army flag and green battalion soldiers who fought in front, the casualties began to increase, the Han army flag soldiers rushed to a distance of 300 meters and were bombarded by six-pounder guns and three-pounder guns, the cavalry who rushed over was hit by artillery scattered shells and the infantry who protected the artillery, and crossbow arrows, bows and arrows, and javelins fell on the Mongolian cavalry and the cavalry of the new army without money.

Most of the cavalry of the new army were composed of Han Chinese or Manchu cavalry, and the Manchu cavalry also suffered casualties.

While the Han Banner and the Green Battalion soldiers began to flee more, Duolong had to send the Manchu infantry up and shoot arrows in the back to stop their escape, and his Chinese army marched to a distance of two miles, a thousand meters, while the new army approached a distance of three miles.

Finally, the soldiers of the Han Army Banner gritted their teeth and launched an assault in front of Tian Bin's military formation.

Countless crossbow arrows, bows and arrows hit them at a distance of eighty meters, and the rain of arrows raged above their heads, and many Han army flag soldiers and green battalion soldiers gritted their teeth and charged against the rain of arrows, and their shields were held above their heads to avoid the damage of bows and crossbows.

After approaching, he rushed into the formation of sword and shield soldiers with a roar and started hand-to-hand combat, while the crossbowmen retreated to thirty meters, and the rear of the sword and shield soldiers, the artillery in the middle of Tian Bin's army formation and the artillery on both wings quickly retreated to the gap between the pikemen and the general's guard, and rearranged them.

Soon, with the advantage of numbers, wave after wave of Han banner soldiers defeated the sword and shield soldiers and rushed towards the crossbow soldiers, who retreated one after another, retreated behind the musketeers, and continued to suppress.

The musketeers began to fire, firing freely, covering the defeated swordsmen, shieldmen, and crossbowmen to retreat behind themselves and regroup.

The pikemen quickly ran thirty meters behind the musketeers and waited, and the sword and shield men who accompanied them raised their shields to set up a protective net for them, so as not to be killed by the enemy's sudden bow and arrows.

The musketeers in front withstood the onslaught of the enemy and continuously launched a platoon of guns and shot tactics.

Two thousand musketeers on each side lined up in two rows, staggered shooting, a salvo, let the countless Han soldiers in front of them wielding broadswords, spears, shields, maces, roaring and rushing over fall to the ground thousands, slowing down their impact speed, so that the Han soldiers did not dare to move forward, they could only use the archers to suppress, they slowly leaned over, which gave the musketeers time to reload, after the second round of salvo fired, the Han army flag and the green battalion soldiers collapsed directly, 15,600 people fell to the ground in an instant, two salvos, they lost 2,600 people, this battle can't be fought.

The smarter green battalion soldiers quickly fled to the slopes on both sides, and some jumped into the lake next to them, and the Manchu cavalry had no way to catch them back, because thousands of Han army flags and green battalion soldiers were carrying them to retreat, after all, they were few people, and at the same time retreated, they were hacked to death by Han army flags and green battalion soldiers at the same time, and then were followed by thousands of Manchu infantry with a salvo to end the escape.

Duo Long endured the heartache and asked the Manchu soldiers to come again, stopping the retreating Han army banner and the Green Battalion soldiers again, and then sent the remaining Green Battalion soldiers to join the queue, and hundreds of Manchu officers were sent in, took over their command, and led them back to continue charging towards Tian Bin's formation.
