The final battle has finally begun!

Fang Yuan and Liu Zeqing went to the north gate together, and from the top of the city, they could see the battle situation outside the entire north gate at a glance.

Fang Yuan looked at the barracks with the blue flag, and the sound of horns came and went, converging into a torrent that resounded through the night sky.

The first target of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry's surprise attack was the Chinese army camp of the Zhenglan Banner, as long as the Chinese army camp could be captured, all the military camps of the Zhenglan Banner would be completely panicked, and it would be difficult to take care of the end of the head.

At the beginning of the battle, the Tartar soldiers of the Blue Banner saw the cavalry of the Yellow Banner rushing towards them, and thought that the Abatai side had come to support the siege operation, and they were all negligent in taking precautions.

Chigutai led the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to directly break through the camp gate, advancing at great speed, and the blockers were invincible, while slashing and killing the awakened Tartar soldiers, while setting fire to the camp. Only a quarter of an hour later, the outer battalion of the Zhenglan Banner responsible for defense was already in flames, and it had completely submerged into the sea of fire, obviously having been completely broken through by the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, with countless casualties.

Darhan, who was in the camp of the Chinese army, was shocked when he heard that a group of cavalry with positive yellow flags had attacked the outer camp, and he did not know for a while whether there was a conflict between the positive blue flag and the positive yellow flag, and immediately led the army to mediate.

He just ran to the gate of the outer camp, but saw that the outer camp had been captured, and immediately woke up to the fact that it was not a conflict between the blue flag and the yellow flag at all, but the Ming army pretended to be the cavalry of the yellow flag and came to attack the camp.

The Xuanjia army, which should have been bitten to death by the white flag and pursued, would suddenly wear a military uniform with a yellow flag, and launch a surprise attack while the sergeants with the blue flag were attacking the city, and Darhan was so frightened that his face was bloodless.

He immediately fled to the Chinese military camp, and the soldiers of Zhenglan Banner, who ordered the siege of the city, immediately stopped the siege and sent troops back to help.

Liu Zeqing's 5,000 cavalry was already ready to go, and when he saw that the Tartar soldiers besieging the city retreated, he immediately led his troops out of the city and pursued them.

The military band of 500 people at the head of the city began to beat gongs and drums, and the sound of gongs and shouts that shook the sky resounded in the sky, like a life-urging charm, destroying the fighting spirit of the Tartar soldiers.

The loss of the outer barracks, the Tartar soldiers with the blue flag did not know whether it was a small group of cavalry or a large-scale attack on the camp, and the panic began to spread to other military camps.

Chigutai succeeded in one blow and broke through the outer military camp, and saw that there were at least 4 Niu Lu in the Chinese army camp, and they were ready for battle, so they immediately changed the direction of the attack, ignoring the Chinese army camp, but began to annihilate the other defeated Tartar cavalry and eliminate the living force of the Tartar soldiers.

Fear and panic were still spreading in the barracks of the Blue Banner, and the Tartars were simply unable to organize an effective resistance in formation. The Xuanjia Iron Cavalry was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, and the occasional scattered Tartar soldiers who organized resistance were almost immediately defeated, and they were killed on the spot, and they had no power to fight back.

Darhan, who was caught between the front and rear of the Ming army, did not dare to rescue other military camps at all, and only dared to lead the remnants of 4 Niu Lu to retreat in the Chinese army camp to wait for help, and sent a distress signal to Abatai who was in the yellow flag.

As soon as Abatai received the distress signal from the Zhenglan Banner, he recalled the Tartar soldiers who were besieging the city, and dispatched the cavalry of 8 Niu Lu from the outer defense to the Zhenglan Banner military camp to support.

As soon as the cavalry of the eight Niu Lu withdrew from the outer camp, a group of sergeants with the blue flag fled into the outer camp.

In Jining City, Liu Zeqing's 3,000 cavalry also went out together to pursue the Zhenghuangqi sergeant who was about to withdraw to the barracks.

Abatai, who received two alerts from the attack on the outer camp and the cavalry of Jining City going out of the city to pursue him, was completely confused, and he could not figure out where the Ming army's attack was real and where it was false.

Fighting a war is like a game, Abatai is hand and hand is calculated by Fang Yuan, where does he dare to play easily? He immediately ordered the only eight remaining Niu Lu in the camp of the Zhenghuang Banner not to act rashly, and the rest of the battalions were guarded separately, and sent a sergeant to Ai Shili with the blue flag for help.

Gushan Ezhen Ai Sili, who was inlaid with blue flags, received Abatai's distress signal and immediately summoned a few Zaran Ezhen and Niu Lu Ezhen to discuss countermeasures.

The generals of the blue flag were reluctant to go to the rescue at all, because they had the lowest status in the Eight Banners of the Manchu Dynasty, and it was Huang Taiji who killed the owner of the Blue Flag Amin and forcibly took over the Blue Banner, so the personnel and armament configuration for the Blue Flag were the worst in the Eight Banners.

In this invasion of Shandong, Abatai first ordered the Blue Banner to guard the Jinan Mansion in the rear, but he didn't want the Blue Banner to distribute the profits of this battle. The sergeants with the blue flag have complaints on weekdays, but now that the yellow flag has been attacked, it is too late for them to gloat, where are they willing to go to the rescue?

When Ai Xili was in trouble, a military report suddenly came from the direction of Jining City, because Liu Zeqing sent a Ming army of 30,000 people, pushing a chariot specially designed to defend against cavalry, took the initiative to open the city gate, and approached the camp with blue flags.

The Ming army almost poured out, and Ai Shili finally found a reason to refuse to send troops to rescue, and immediately ordered 15 Niu Lu with blue flags to stick to each camp and not attack without authorization, and ordered 10 Niu Lu to start preparing for the retreat of the whole army.

Abatai in the barracks in the Yellow Flag couldn't wait for reinforcements from the Blue Flag, and Darhan in the barracks in the Blue Flag didn't wait for reinforcements from the Yellow Flag.

Because the reinforcements of the 8 Niu Lu of Zhenghuang Banner were also attacked, and almost all the troops were wiped out.

The support army first encountered the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry who pretended to be the Red Flag on the way to the rescue, and delayed for two quarters of an hour.

Before waiting to review whether this Zhenghong Banner was true or false, Chigutai led the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry with the fake Zhenglan Banner to level all the camps of the Zhenglan Banner except for the Chinese army camp, and also killed the Zhenglan Banner camp according to the prior plan, and joined the Zhenghong Banner, and just happened to bump into the Zhenghuang Banner reinforcements who came to support.

A Zalan Ezhen of the Zhenghuang Banner thought that something had happened to the Zhenglan Banner camp, and was about to ask what was going on, but he was rushed to the front of Chigutai and killed him with a direct shot.

At the same time, the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry led by Chigutai began to assault this Zhenghuang Banner reinforcement; The reinforcements of the Zhenghuang Banner suddenly lost their commander, the dragons were leaderless, and they encountered the powerful Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, and they were caught off guard for a while, and the front team immediately fell into the flames of war.

The squadron and the rear team hurriedly retreated, preparing to gain a firm foothold and meet the enemy again, and the three hundred Xuanjia iron cavalry pretending to be the red flag also suddenly attacked, and began to slash the squadron of reinforcements, cutting the reinforcements in two.

After being attacked continuously, the rear team, led by 3 Niu Lu Ezhen, was about to launch a counterattack, but found that another army with a yellow flag appeared behind them.

The three Niu Lu Ezhen thought that Abatai had sent another army to support them, and they were about to converge together, but unexpectedly, the army in the rear suddenly lit up the butcher's knife against 'their own people', and directly killed them in the formation, and slashed them hard.

It's messy! It's all messed up!

This reinforcement army with the positive yellow flag was besieged on three sides by the Xuanjia iron cavalry pretending to be the blue flag, the red flag, and the yellow flag, and it was completely blindfolded, and it was impossible to distinguish who was the enemy and who was the friendly army.

The only person who can distinguish friend or foe is the comrade-in-arms of each ten-division unit, so they can only use the ten-division as a unit to resist on their own, slashing and chopping indiscriminately.

On the one hand, there is a rabble of unorganized and undisciplined people who fight on their own, and on the other hand, there is an elite division that is prepared and cooperates tacitly, and there is no suspense about the outcome of the battle.

In less than two hours, the reinforcements of 8 Niu Lu fled and died, and they were completely annihilated.

Chigutai ordered the simple cleaning of the firearms and explosion-proof equipment on the battlefield, and then led the army into the dark night and went to Jiaxiang County to rest. The next battle situation will be handed over to Liu Zeqing's Ming army.

The ensuing bloody battle between the Ming army and the Tartar soldiers lasted for two days and two nights, and finally ended with the Manchu Tartars retreating twenty miles and withdrawing from the battlefield.

Liu Zeqing's Ming army lost a total of 3,600 cavalry and 6,800 infantry.

In this battle, the Xuanjia Army and the Ming Army won a complete victory, annihilating a total of 10 Niu Lu of the Zhenghuang Banner and 8 Niu Lu of the Zhenglan Banner, with a total of 5,400 Tartar soldiers.

Abatai also wanted to redeem the defeat by inlaying the blue flag, and the inlaid blue flag refused to carry out the military order of this defeated general who lost a red eye, and under the pretext of the great loss in the vicious battle with the Ming army, he first pulled out the camp and retreated in the direction of Jinan Mansion.

The blue flag disobeyed, and Abatai could only master the 8 cattle records of the positive yellow flag and the 4 cattle records of the positive blue flag, a total of 12 cattle records, less than 4,000 people. With such a small number of troops, not to mention attacking the city, even if you stay under the city of Jining, you may be wiped out at any time.

In desperation, two days later, Abatai could only give up the siege of Jining City and lead the army to withdraw to Jinan Mansion.

The Manchu Tartars retreated in a hurry, and they didn't even dare to take the gold, silver, and population that they plundered with the army, and they all stayed under the city of Jining.

Fang Yuan looked at the Manchu Iron Cavalry who were slowly retreating from the city, his heart was surging, the two or three months of running around were finally not in vain.

Yanzhou Mansion was saved after all.

Next, it is to recover Jinan Mansion!
