The Wei army ordered the flag to wave, and the Wei generals on the left flank artillery array put away the clairvoyant mirror, walked quickly to a bronze cannon, and said loudly to a commander, "Do you see Wu Sangui's banner, can you beat it?" ”

The battlefield was vast, the range of the copper cannon was limited, and the commander brigade did not dare to be sure, so he immediately knelt down on one knee, stretched out a hand, cocked his thumb, and closed one eye to observe.

"Yes!" The Commander nodded affirmatively.

"Boom him!" The general waved his arms and yelled excitedly.

If this cannon kills Wu Sangui, then he will make a great contribution.

More than 10 bronze cannons on the artillery array immediately turned around, and the gunner pushed the gun carriage to set up the artillery in a good position, quickly aim, and load.

The well-trained Wei gunners, put in the medicine bag, pushed in the shell, pierced the medicine bag with spikes, inserted the lead, and the action was done in one go, without a single superfluous step, and the loading was completed in a moment.

More than a dozen bronze cannons, the muzzles of which were aimed at the Guanning horse army that stopped on the right flank, aimed at the banner of hunting with the wind, and Wu Sangui, who was shining silver under the banner.

The distance is a bit far, but more than a dozen cannons smashed at the same time, not without a chance.

"Put!" The officer thought about the hereditary title and military merit in his heart, and the green tendons on his neck burst out and let out an angry roar.

The gunner immediately lit the fuse, and a loud sound of "boom boom" sounded on the artillery array, and more than a dozen bronze cannons, the cannon bodies retreated in turn, raising clouds of white smoke, and the smoke of gunpowder instantly filled the entire artillery array.

In the Guanning army on the right flank, Wu Sangui was rearranging when a series of screams suddenly came from the air, and more than a dozen black dots shot extremely quickly, and Wu Sangui's heart immediately sank.

Before he could finish speaking, a cannonball hit a general next to him, and the whole person was instantly torn apart by the cannonball, exploding a cloud of blood mist.

A cannonball smashed directly in front of Wu Sangui's horse, the mud in the rice field splashed, and a lump of mud made him face, Wu Sangui's face was instantly distorted, and he was extremely angry, "Gao Yihuan, this king is straight to your mother!" “

At this time, another cannonball smashed, and the war horse was frightened, and its front hooves hung high in the air, letting out a long neigh, almost throwing Wu Sangui off the war horse.

In an instant, under the banner of the Wei army, the men and horses neighed, and the cavalry behind saw that the banner was bombarded by concentrated fire, and they were all shocked and frightened.

Gao Yihuan held a clairvoyant mirror and stared at Wu Sangui's banner, only to see one iron bullet after another, rapidly shooting into the crowd, splashing pieces of soil, the people under the banner turned over on their backs, and the war horses were panicked.

Suddenly, the big banner representing Wu Sangui fell to the ground with a bang, and Gao Yihuan's face suddenly became excited, but at this moment, the big flag that fell down was beaten by one person again.

That person was Wu Sangui, he held the banner in one hand, galloped on the side again, his strong body galloped on the horse, and the banner danced in the wind in his hand, which immediately relieved Guan Ningjun.

Gao Yihuan put down the clairvoyant mirror, secretly said that it was a pity, and had to admit in his heart that Wu Sangui was a ruthless person, very charismatic, and bravely crowned the three armies.

However, although Wu Sangui is brave, this method of warfare is always an old-style army, Wu Sangui knows the danger of the big flag, but he still has to be with the big banner, and he must let the officers and soldiers of the Guanning army see him and see the big banner, so as to stimulate morale, and the Guanning army has combat effectiveness.

Although the Wei army is also inseparable from Daqi and Gao Yihuan, Gao Yihuan does not have to charge into battle.

At this time, Wu Sangui ran with his flag raised, and half of the horse army followed, moving again to avoid the artillery bombardment of the Wei army.

The other half of the horse army turned over and dismounted, drew their swords, picked up their spears, and killed the Wei army's formation.

Gao Yihuan's face sank when he saw this, and Li Dingguo next to him said: "Wu Sangui wants to use foot combat to attack the hollow array, once he breaks through a few phalanxes, the situation will not be good." ”

The hollow array of the Wei army, with more than 1,200 people in each formation, is led by a deputy lieutenant, with the strength of four divisions, the strength of one division in each direction, the defense on all sides is equal, the outer spears in the middle of the formation, the fire guns in the back, and the middle is also equipped with artillery, rockets, baggage, and a team of sentry horses.

The Wei army's hollow array, consisting of such a phalanx, a total of twenty-four small formations, plus a large formation of the Chinese army, spread all over the wilderness.

The distance between the two small formations was one hundred and forty paces, and within this distance, the horses would be flanked by two muskets, and at least one of the muskets would be enough to break the armor, and the projectiles fired by the two phalanxes would not be enough to accidentally injure the opposing phalanx.

If the phalanx is defeated, it will undoubtedly destroy the structure of the phalanx group, and a huge gap will be formed, and the hollow array group will be seriously damaged.

Gao Yihuan's eyes narrowed, "My Wei army is invincible in the world on foot, Wu Sangui does not turn his horse's head to flee for his life, does not kneel to ask for surrender, he actually wants to dismount and fight, this is self-defeating." ”

At this time, he looked at about five thousand Guan Ning troops, brandished weapons in his hands, pressed towards a small formation on the outermost periphery, and immediately waved his hand, "Bai Wenxuan, you go to the left flank to command the blockade, and the Lone King will transfer troops from the rear to support you!" ”

Bai Wenxuan hugged his fists, turned over his horse, and the guards behind him raised his general flag, galloped out of the main formation, and nearly a hundred horsemen roared to the left flank.

Gao Yihuan picked up the clairvoyant mirror again, and looked at Wu Sangui who was galloping outside the formation and the five thousand elite horse army behind him, he did not dare to carry out a large-scale change of formation, the infantry army against the cavalry, relying on a strict formation, once the formation was unstable, it would give Wu Sangui the opportunity to raid.

The cavalry has the initiative, he does not enter the formation, the infantry army has nothing to do with him, Gao Yihuan must wait for Wu Sangui's 5,000 horse army, and also enter the formation, in order to trap Wu Sangui, and at this time Wu Sangui is also waiting for an opportunity, the right wing and the forward are all passive, he must kill with one blow in order to reverse the occupation.

Gao Yihuan's expression was grim, his eyes scanned the battlefield, "Order the rear, the third and sixth formations of the inner formation, change the formation, and reinforce the left flank!" “

After speaking, Gao Yihuan looked at the forward and shouted the order, "Raise the flag, let the front army solve the foot soldiers of the Guanning Army as soon as possible!" The lonely king can still calm down when he sees Wu Sangui! ”

In the Wei army's formation, the Ling flag was waved, and there were originally six formations behind the main formation, and the two formations close to the main formation immediately moved to the left flank.

On the right flank of the formation, Guo Zhuangtu had fallen into the hollow formation and had no threat to the main formation.

The infantry of the first front of the Wei army in the front line strangled the Guanning infantry army again, and the second front, the Wei infantry who retreated to the two wings, after reorganizing the formation, began to outflank the infantry of the Guanning army from both sides, and it was only a matter of time before they ate the other side.

On the battlefield, on the whole, the Wei army had the upper hand, and the further time passed, the more obvious the advantage became, only the left flank remained uncertain.

At this time, the five thousand Guan Ning army, which was only one hundred and fifty steps away from the Wei army's array on the periphery, had already entered the range of the Wei army's firearms, and Xia Guoxiang suddenly drew his sword and shouted, "Rush!" ”
