Liu Zhong was dead, and the Green Battalion soldiers could no longer resist after a thousand miles of collapse, and at this time, the captured sheep-like people suddenly rebelled, making it even more difficult for them to escape.

Some of the green battalion soldiers tore together with the people, and more threw away their weapons and fled into the wheat fields and crawled towards the hills.

As a result, the cavalry of the Pingnan Army rode on their horses for a long time, and shot at the back of the green battalion soldiers who fled into the wheat field with crossbows or firearms.

The green battalion soldiers who fled to the hills did not please him, and Ma Chuang and the soldiers of the Southern Army with five hundred square meters had already come around.

In a short fierce battle, half of the 3,000 Green Battalion soldiers were killed, most of them died under the tiger squat cannon and fire bolts, and the remaining half fled into the wheat field, and Yu Feng had no time to chase them.

A small group of about five or six hundred people chose to surrender on their knees. Yu Feng didn't have time to take these green battalion soldiers who surrendered, so he collected his weapons and tied them up and handed them over to the people to deal with.

According to the order sent by Chen Yue, the Qing army had already set a trap for his cavalry. Now there must be several Qing army troops coming here, and Yu Feng doesn't dare to delay time here.

Hastily cleaned up the battlefield, loaded the tiger squat cannon on horseback, and began to evacuate the battlefield.

As for these people, Yu Feng had no time to take them away. Just tell them to go east, as long as they can escape to the canal, there will be ships to meet them, cross the canal to the east bank, and they will be safe.

As soon as the cavalry of the Pingnan Army left, thousands of people rushed towards the tied green battalion soldiers, and in the past two days, they had had enough of the ravages of the green battalion soldiers.

Listening to the terrible screams behind him, Yu Feng shook his head slightly. He has no compassion for these green battalion soldiers who are abetting abuse.

As for whether it would be dangerous to leave the people here, Yu Feng knew that the goal of the Qing army was himself, and it was really dangerous to let the people follow him.

Sure enough, the cavalry left the battlefield for less than ten miles, and the Qing cavalry had already chased after them. Yu Feng immediately led the cavalry to gallop eastward.

Three thousand Mongol cavalry galloped on the road. The southern roads were no wider than the savannahs, full of ditches and farmlands, and the cavalry had to be extremely careful, and it was basically impossible to get off the roads.

But now, the cavalry of the Ming army is in front, and under the supervision of Belenica, the Mongolian cavalry does not care about the horses, and fights the horses one by one.

Nikan was annoyed, and when he got the report and rushed to the battlefield, he saw only the corpses of the Green Battalion soldiers and the backs of the people who had not fled far. Nikan had no time to chase and kill the fleeing people, and after identifying the Ming cavalry going north along the main road, he led his troops to chase and kill them.

If the green battalion soldiers were a little more aggressive, they would be able to block the way of this Ming army and thus surround and kill them! Nikan thought indignantly.

The green battalion soldiers are all rice buckets, and Prince Yu still values them very much, and entrusts them with such an important matter as requisitioning grain and arresting Ding, which makes Nikan very dissatisfied.

When I go back, I will definitely slaughter the general of this green battalion with my own hands! Nikan thought fiercely.

Nikan is the grandson of the old slave Nurhachi, and loves Xinjueluo. Chu Ying's third son, known for his bravery in the Eight Banners Army. This year, when he attacked Li Zicheng with Azig, he made great achievements, and was crowned Dorobelle, and then commanded the Outer Mongolian cavalry to go south with Duoduo to attack Ming. Along the way, he was a pioneer.

Now Duoduo has given Nikan the task of killing the Ming cavalry, which can be seen because of his invincible bravery and the speed with which the Mongol cavalry comes and goes.

The Mongolian cavalry is worthy of being a nation born on horseback since childhood, and it can be said that it is unparalleled in the world in terms of equestrianism. Gradually, the distance between the two sides slowly approached, and the backs of the cavalry of the Pingnan Army could already be seen in the distance.

It was still more than thirty miles away from the city of Yangzhou, and Nikan was sure that he could catch up with the Ming cavalry before they returned to Yangzhou, and then annihilate them.

However, at this moment, the Ming cavalry in front of him suddenly went east, which made Nikan stunned.

Outside Yangzhou City for many days, Nikan naturally knows the terrain near Yangzhou, to the east is the Grand Canal, up to 200 zhang wide, there is no bridge to cross the canal south of Yangzhou City, does the Ming cavalry want to swim across the river?

Although he didn't know what the Ming cavalry had in mind, Nikan led his troops to chase after him, as long as he could catch up, he could kill all the annoying Ming cavalry and completely block the Ming army in Yangzhou City.

To Nikan's delight, the farther east he got closer to the canal, the less farmland there became, and after crossing a ditch that was not wide, the terrain suddenly opened up, and half a mile to the east was the sparkling canal. Between the canal and the ditch that diverted water for irrigation was a wide canal embankment, which was a suitable place for cavalry to charge and fight.

At this time, the Ming army had galloped north along the canal embankment, and the team was not fast, just more than a mile ahead.

Nikan calculated, as long as it took another moment, he would be able to catch up with the Ming army in front.

At this moment, he inadvertently looked into the canal and saw a fleet of ships coming from Yangzhou in the north with sails.

The fleet of 100 boats, stretched back and forth for three or four miles, is so conspicuous in the canal.

It turned out that the cavalry of the Ming army in front of him had such an idea, and wanted to cross the river to the other side by the connection of the canal boats, Nikan suddenly sneered, thinking that he had seen through the tricks of the Ming army. But I didn't notice that the canal embankment was getting narrower and narrower, and the ditch next to it for drinking water irrigation was getting wider and wider, and at first it was still able to be crossed by Pegasus, but now it was several feet wide, and it was already a not narrow river, and there were several ditches branching out of the river along the way to irrigate the nearby farmland.

"Oops!" A Mongolian cavalry horse tripped for some reason, and fell to its knees on the ground with its front hooves, but fortunately, the cavalry was good at it, and jumped to the ground with a kick on his horse's back, and did not fall.

The other horsemen galloped past the cavalry without stopping, leaving behind a string of laughter that laughed at his lame horsemanship.

The cavalry snorted hard and pulled up his horse. If it weren't for the sudden increase in weeds and dry firewood, and the shallow ditch and the black unknown liquid in the ditch, the war horse would not have stepped on a dry firewood and stumbled.

But why is there such a ditch here, as if it was deliberately dug to cut off the road, only one step wide and one foot deep, and the war horse can jump over, what role can it play?

The cavalry glanced suspiciously at the ditch not far away, and didn't care about turning over the war horse and chasing after the team.

The distance is getting closer and closer, as long as there is another tea time, you can catch up with this Ming cavalry, Nikan was excited, stretched out his hand and took out the riding bow from the bow plug on his side, as long as he got closer, he could use the bow and arrow to shoot at the Ming army in front, so that they could enjoy the power of Mongolian cavalry and archery.

The road ahead is getting narrower and narrower, and not far away is the confluence of the aqueduct and the canal on the left, on which several bridges are erected side by side, and the Ming cavalry in front has crossed the wooden bridge.

Just when the Mongolian cavalry was about to catch up with the wooden bridge, suddenly the Ming cavalry in front stopped, threw several swarthy objects on the wooden bridge, and the sound of "bang" sounded, and then there were flames rising into the sky, enveloping several wooden bridges.

The "sparse" galloping horses suddenly stopped, and the Mongolian cavalry looked in horror at the flames that suddenly appeared in front of them.

The wooden bridge several zhang long suddenly burned, and the flames spread rapidly, forming a thick wall of fire, isolating the cavalry of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
