Zhang Zongling touched his head embarrassedly and said, "As soon as I have an idea, I want to drill outside, and I can't stop." ”

After a while, Lu Xiangsheng concluded: "The front is planted with mines, then sprinkled with thistles, and a ditch is dug every ten steps, and the last ditch is densely covered with cannons and firecrackers. ”

"Set up a second line of defense two hundred steps behind the first line of defense, and here you can light a torch fifty steps in front of the defense line, and strive to keep Jiannu here, especially the Nu Chief Taiji."

When it was almost dark, black smoke came out of Haizhou City, and Cao Wenzhao said: "Tonight, I'm afraid it's a big fight." ”

Lu Xiangsheng nodded: "After this battle, Jiannudang has nothing to fear, and in the end it can only be cleaned up by us like a straw dog." ”

It was completely dark, and the Ming army was already fully equipped and waiting for the charge of the Houjin army. Soon the sound of mines and screams was heard, and the cannons and guns began to fire at the sound, and more screams were heard.

Yue Tuo heard the screams of his subordinates, and he could only harden his heart and urge the troops to move forward, the bigger the opening of the troops in front, the more likely it was that the eighth uncle and they would escape safely.

A small group of cavalry rushed out of the city quickly, which was used to find the way with red flags, and the front was still going well, but when it came to the newly dug ditch, the horses fell into the ditch. Houjin Bing got up and continued to rush forward.

It was not visible at night, which had a certain impact on both sides, and the Houjin soldiers rushed to the front of the Ming army in the first line of defense before they were discovered, and the two sides launched a fierce white-knives battle. The Ming army was in a tight formation and had a certain advantage in the battle.

Even so, a large number of Houjin soldiers broke through the first line of defense and ran towards the back. But after running for a while, they came to the front of the second line of defense, which was full of torches. Before he could react, a bullet hit his body.

Some of the smarter ones shouted, "Shoot the fire torches." "Torches can't be blown out by blowing, and in the process of extinguishing the torches, Houjin soldiers lost a lot of manpower before finally extinguishing all the torches in the two lines of defense.

In the dark, the Ming army could only stick to the defensive line, and the Houjin soldiers who escaped the defensive line had no way to chase after them. But the Houjin soldiers who escaped in this way were only a few stragglers, and there was a net laid by the Ming army in southern Liaoning led by Liu Xingzhi and others.

Under the protection of his own soldiers, Yue Tuo finally escaped the second line of defense, and he asked his own soldiers to gather the team, but the effect was extremely poor. The Houjin soldiers who were lucky enough to escape only knew how to flee to the north in one go, and they didn't care about anything around them.

A special squad of the Ming army carried torches and slowly cruised behind the second line of defense, capturing the Houjin soldiers who had slipped through the net. There was no way, Yue Tuo could only take his own soldiers of about 100 people and slowly march north.

Time passed slowly, and after Huang Taiji waited for the soldiers to leave, he said to the soldiers: "Go." The group ran silently along the path that the soldiers in front had tried to probe out, and met a fierce attack at the first line of defense, after all, the white armor was different from the ordinary armor soldiers, and did not say a word when he was shot, and moved quickly with his head down, without looking at his fallen companions.

After losing about a dozen white armors, he finally broke through the first line of defense. The second line of defense now had a few more torches, and they ran quickly forward avoiding the area where the torches lit.

Huang Taiji is surrounded by a large number of white armor on the left and right, some with red flags, and some with white flags. The bullets were all resisted by the white armor in front of them, and if one fell, another would immediately block it. There was no chance that he would be hit by a bullet.

But they were the last to come out, so the soldiers in the second line of defense were equivalent to dealing with them specifically, and they began to fire their guns just by the sound of footsteps, so here the losses of the white armor are getting bigger and bigger. Huang Taiji whispered bitterly: "Hurry up, the slower you will die." ”

Of course, the white armor also understood this truth, but except for Huang Taiji and the two solid mountain Ezhen, the other white armor did not ride horses, and on such nights, riding horses did not have any effect except to attract more attacks and fall into the ditch. Now that they have escaped from the ditch, the horses have worked, but there are no horses left.

The white armor lowered their heads and charged quickly, but at this time several torches were thrown over, and they fell to the ground for a while without extinguishing, this short light pointed the goal for the Guards infantry, and the sound of fire guns sounded more urgently, and a large number of white armor fell to the ground.

The light of the fire attracted more Guards infantry to this side, and torches were thrown continuously, causing a burst of gunfire. Huang Taiji sighed: "Is it really heaven that is going to kill me?" ”

The captain of his own soldiers, Bai Yintu, said softly: "Baylor don't worry, we will fight to save Baylor alive." Chen Tai, you take Baylor to the left. With that, he rushed to the right front with more than thirty white armors.

Bai Yintu shouted as he ran: "Ming dog, uncle is here, there is a kind of fight with Lao Tzu." The white armor he brought with him also clamoured, and the Ming army was attracted, and many Guards infantry began to move closer to the right.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Tai led Huang Taiji and the others to run to the dark place on the left, and they rushed silently, and quickly rushed through the second line of defense.

Huang Taiji heard the sound of fire behind him, and couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the appearance of Bai Yintu rushing out. Atai said, "Master, we should have passed their blockade line. ”

Huang Taiji said: "If you go to the ancient city or Niuzhuang, it is impossible to go without the search team of the Ming army. Be careful, let's go to the ancient city of Tun. ”

Liu Xingzhi and the Ming army in southern Liaoning have been guarding the direction of the ancient city for a few days, on the one hand, to monitor the reinforcements of Houjin, on the other hand, to prepare to hunt down the remnants of the defeated generals of Houjin, and Liu Xingxian is guarding in the direction of Niuzhuang.

That afternoon, Lu Xiangsheng sent someone to inform them that Jiannu would break through this evening, and asked them to pay attention to the fish that slipped through the net, especially Jiannu's slave chieftains, Taiji and Yue Tuo.

Therefore, Liu Xingzhi gathered the generals of the Ming army, divided the lots, and asked to set up dark piles and set a signal for help.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, sporadic Houjin soldiers began to break into the ambush area of the Ming army, and were quickly captured by the Ming army. Gradually, there were more and more Houjin soldiers, and the Ming army could no longer guarantee to capture all the Houjin soldiers. Liu Xingzhi was a little nervous, for fear that Huang Taiji would slip away.

At this time, a signal rises not far away, which is the most urgent distress signal. Liu Xingzhi was overjoyed and took someone to touch it carefully. Sure enough, it was Huang Taiji and his party, and the Ming army couldn't resist it, so they sent a signal for help.

There were still more than a hundred white armor under Huang Taiji, and when Liu Xingzhi rushed over, the Ming army was fighting with the white armor soldiers.
