Chapter 213: The curtain has come down

Seeing that the Xingtian Army was getting closer and closer to the official army formation, it was not until the two armies approached sixty or seventy paces that the roar of stopping the advance sounded in the Xingtian army formation, and the drumbeat of the marching drum immediately stopped, and all the soldiers and generals of the Xingtian Army immediately stopped like fingers.

The firecrackers gathered on both sides of the phalanx immediately lowered the bird guns on their shoulders with a loud noise, and the rows of black holes and holes aimed at the opposite officer and army formation.

Xu Dingguo watched the performance of this thief army behind the battle, and felt a chill in his heart, this group of thieves was very different from all the thieves he had met in the past, and the strict military discipline in his army had far exceeded the performance of the most elite family team under his command, and the kind of death-like demeanor shown by this group of thieves in front of the battle made his heart numb for a while, although the other party did not have many troops, but in front of him, it made him have a feeling of Yue Zhenyuan, which made Xu Dingguo's uneasy feeling even more.

He really couldn't imagine how the thief chief of this thief army had trained a group of homeless people they had looked down on before to be so fierce and fearless of death, and this situation was beyond all his knowledge of the outcast army, so he didn't know what to do next for a while!

Without waiting for Xu Dingguo's order, when they saw the Xingtian Army approaching, the officers in the army shouted loudly, commanding the archers and musketeers in the official army to come forward to fight, and a rain of arrows immediately sprinkled down on the Xingtian Army's formation, and at the same time, the firecrackers of the Xingtian Army also began to shoot in a row under the command of the officers.

The two armies immediately fell into a close firefight, the arrow projectiles cut through the cold air, and scattered to each other's bodies, the hot projectiles instantly tore through the armor and clothes on the human body, deeply embedded in the human body, when even the person who was shot flew out, a cloud of gunpowder smoke rose between the two armies, and the screams suddenly rang out one after another in the two armies.

In such a head-to-head confrontation, the power of the Xingtian Army's bird salvo is undoubtedly much more than the chaotic scattering of the official army, although the Xingtian Army also paid some price, but only a few rounds of bird salvo fire, those archers and firecrackers in front of Xu Dingguo's formation were swept away by the Xingtian Army's gun platoon tactics, and a large number of soldiers who were shot fell in front of the formation, which made Xu Dingguo's official army formation immediately chaotic.

These officers and soldiers did not expect that the firearms of the thief army were much sharper than the firearms of their officers and soldiers, and in the face of such a platoon of guns, they were almost powerless to fight back, and no one was a fool, and they were willing to be used as a target like this, so the soldiers and generals standing in the front row were all panicked, and they began to involuntarily want to retreat, avoiding the crowd, and the province became the target of the next round of guns shooting by the thief army.

That is, there was a chaotic situation on the side of the official army, Luo Li stood in the middle of the formation, laughed, waved the big knife in his hand and shouted: "The whole army is attacking!" ……”

The pikemen in the front row flattened their spears in response, forming a forest of guns in front of the line, and then rushed towards the large array of officers and soldiers in great strides under the shouts of the officers.

After a short while, the soldiers of the two armies collided together, and a wave of blood was raised, and the sound of spears and spears entering the flesh came and went, and the roars and shouts of the two armies echoed each other.

Under the almost identical strength of the two sides, the second battalion led by Luo Li and the official army led by Xu Dingguo faced each other, and once the two sides fought, they made a high sentence, and the long-term and rigorous training of the Xingtian Army in such a tragic confrontation exerted great combat effectiveness, and the phalanx used by the Xingtian Army was more reasonable, so that Xu Dingguo's side was almost powerless to fight back, and the phenomenon of rout quickly began to appear.

Although Xu Dingguo already knew that the Xingtian Army was not easy to deal with, but he still despised the strength of the Xingtian Army's field battle, the reason why he wanted to lead his troops out to meet the battle just now was actually a certain fantasy, and wanted to have a face-to-face with the Xingtian Army at the last time, if he could repel the Xingtian Army's support army in this battle, then he could revive the morale of the army, and even might use this opportunity to carry out a counterattack on the Xingtian Army, and take advantage of the situation to completely eat the support army of the Xingtian Army, so he still has a chance to turn over in this battle, If he can win this battle, he will be developed after he goes back, Zuo Guangxian, who is also a famous general in Shaanxi, was defeated in the hands of the Xingtian Army, but he won the battle, and this credit is absolutely not small after he goes back.

But when the two armies came into contact, he realized that it was just his wishful thinking, and the fierceness of the Xingtian Army was not something that the generals he brought could deal with at all.

After this battle, Xu Dingguo can be said to have wasted the strength of the two tigers, and he can be regarded as blocking the onslaught of the Xingtian Army, but the two thousand soldiers and generals he brought out of the battalion lost as many as three or four hundred people after the battle, and they had to fight and retreat into the camp.

Although Luo Li failed to defeat Xu Dingguo in the first battle this time, in terms of the will to fight, the Xingtian Army had an absolute advantage, making Xu Dingguo and the more than 10,000 officers and troops under his command no longer have the intention to fight here.

As a last resort, Xu Dingguo had no choice but to completely give up the idea of continuing to stay and fight with the Xingtian Army, and in the afternoon, he took the initiative to withdraw the camp and lead the army to withdraw in the direction of Zezhou.

Xiao Tianjian combined the local armies of Yangcheng, followed Xu Dingguo's department, and chased it to the outside of Zezhou City, so that he could be regarded as catching the soldiers and horses, and down the way, Xu Dingguo fought and retreated many times and fought with the Xingtian Army that followed, and was beaten by the Xingtian Army almost every time was powerless, fortunately, Xu Dingguo still has some ability, although he was defeated repeatedly, but finally did not let his subordinates completely collapse, and finally lost his armor under the cover of alternating and finally fled back to Zezhou with the remnants of the defeated generals, And the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses he brought, together with a remnant of Hu Dawei's soldiers, when they returned to Zezhou, only about half were left.

As a result, the Shanxi official army's attack on the Yangcheng Xingtian Army, which lasted for two months, came to an end in disgrace.

When the news of the defeat of the three-way official army attacking Yangcheng was transmitted to Pingyang Mansion at the fastest speed, after Wu Fu heard it, he almost vomited three liters of blood on the spot, and almost immediately turned his back on his breath, and finally relieved his breath, and couldn't help beating his chest and crying for a while, before he was persuaded by his officials to stop his grief.
