The Jin army heard the call to collect the troops, alternately covered the withdrawal of the battle group, and regrouped not far away, after all, they were not iron men, and they were tired and hungry after a long morning, and they couldn't move without taking a breath. The garrisons had struggled until now, finally escaped death, and took this opportunity to quickly retreat to the battalion's infantry formation, and the battlefield suddenly fell silent, but both sides knew that a more tragic battle was coming, and seized the time to make the final adjustments.

Leaving Ortai and Jin Sheng to continue to watch the battle, Du Wenhuan and Ma Guangyuan went to the front of the infantry together, and the hole cards of both sides have been revealed.

"There are 18,000 people in the three guards and a large battalion, and more than 5,000 people were lost in one morning, and the loss of the other party is estimated to be no more than 1,500 people. Ma Guangyuan looked at the exhausted and retreating garrison with emotion.

"The soldiers are fought, and the next time Jiannu will not be so lucky," Du Wenhuan stared at the Jin army's infantry formation with his eyes, waved his hand and said loudly, "I can't give them too much respite, prepare to attack immediately, order the left and right flanks to rush forward, and the central infantry formation will be delayed, and the bow and arrow attack ability of the stone soldiers will not be good, and if you are too far forward, you will suffer." ”

"Old Shuai, the first wave of attacks will be fought by our artillery battalion, the brothers are all suffocated." Ding Qiming squeezed up and interjected.

"Okay, just start the new two yellow flags, and you must move quickly!" Du Wenhuan thought for a moment and replied.

When the garrison retreated, they sat on the ground staggeringly, and the people immediately brought water and food, and everyone sat on the ground to eat and drink. Hao Heizi ate five tortillas and drank two large bowls of mutton soup, felt that his stomach was swollen, and he got up and stretched his waist - this battle was easy for him, and he had almost nothing to do behind the murderous Bagan, so he patronized the beheading.

"Heizi, I just saw that the merchants in the country are collecting the heads, and the few in your hands are sold, you keep a copy of the money to marry a wife, and the rest is distributed to the brothers," Bagen gnawed on the cake and pointed to the head on the ground - Fengzhou did not count the first merit, the first level is useless to them, but the people in the customs treat this as a treasure, the last time the Fengzhou army came back from the Xilamulun River, there were businessmen who went out to buy at a high price, Bagen paid attention this time, and told Hao Heizi to collect the intact head, Hao Heizi was about to leave with the head, Bagen said again:" If it is less than twenty taels, it will not be sold. ”

The transaction was completed very smoothly, and before Hao Heizi could speak, the merchant patted his chest and said, Never make the black money of the brothers, twenty-five taels one, six heads one hundred and fifty taels of silver, brother, you have made a fortune! Hao Heizi contentedly carried a stack of silver bills into his arms. The merchant carefully put the head on the car, and his heart blossomed—the head of Jiannu was sold on the black market for fifty or sixty twenty-one, and he also made a fortune.

Hao Heizi walked back happily, a large group of people hugged their heads and cried on the road, he looked up at the other party's military flag - the fifth brigade of Fengzhou Wei, this brigade is estimated to have fought very badly, fortunately we have this guy Bagen, more than 100 people died, but there were sixty or seventy Jiannu killed. He squeezed in to take a look, everyone was crying around a corpse that had been cut to a bloody pulp, and the person who scrubbed the corpse he knew was his fellow villager Liu Erhu.

"Erhu, what's wrong with you?" Hao Heizi leaned in and asked.

"Kuroko, our captain is dead, we have to find the **** Jiannu to settle this account!" Liu Erhu also recognized Hao Heizi and hugged him and cried.

Hao Heizi patted Liu Erhu's shoulder and comforted him softly, but he was thinking in his heart, the captain of Erhu is gone, my captain is still alive, or this guy has the ability.

Everyone was crying sadly, the rallying cry sounded, and the heralds on horseback shouted loudly: "All assemble, the whole team is on standby, and those who have no weapons will immediately replenish their weapons." ”

Hao Heizi hugged Liu Erhu, said take care, and hurriedly ran towards his brigade, at this time, explosions sounded continuously in front, and the battle began again.

The battle was provoked by Ding Qiming, and the Jin army was tired and panting for breath all morning, and for the time being, he didn't want to provoke the Fengzhou army, which was in good spirits. At this time, a group of guys called grenadiers by Ma Guangyuan appeared, and the archers of the Jin Army looked at this group of cavalry in a column very strangely, they did not hold knives, spears, bows and arrows in their hands, but they carried a rope, and there was a smoking ball tied under the rope - do Fengzhou people like to play hammer throw? After entering a hundred paces, the Jin army immediately opened his bow and shot arrows, and the group rode well, throwing iron balls at the moment when the arrows rained down, and then made a beautiful backward turn and desperately ran away. With a loud bang, the Jin Army immediately screamed, and then smashed down one after another round balls, and the explosions were continuous, and the archers of the Jin Army were blown up.

The attack lasted for a short time, but a hundred balls smashed into one place intensively, and the Jin army was in chaos for a while before calming down, and there were not a few people killed, but two or three hundred guys were blown to ashes, some people covered their hands and feet and wailed, and some people covered their faces and groaned - the people of Fengzhou are too bad, it's just a matter of scaring people, they also mixed broken iron with gunpowder, it really hurts to collapse into the flesh, and some unlucky people have ruined their eyes. The brothers of the two yellow flags were furious, how could there be such a plot against others, they had to settle accounts with them, and the Jin army immediately launched a retaliatory counterattack. Ding Qiming was waiting for them, and the three hundred birds fired three salleys at the Jin army that rushed up, and then turned around and slipped away - the artillery battalion lit the fire, and even the artillery was not pushed up in order to escape, and the distance between the two sides was too close, so that the other party could reduce the number of 100 people, and he was unharmed, which was a big advantage. Of course, the Jin army that suffered a loss refused to give up, pushing the cart as a cover, shouting and screaming and pounced on the Fengzhou army infantry formation, both sides were accustomed to long-range attacks, and in an instant, the arrows were as dense as flying locusts, and the Fengzhou army to deal with the cart was fired one after another, and the Jin army also risked its life to play with the firearms that it was not good at, and the explosion of gunpowder sounded loudly, and the tragic war began again.

The bows and arrows of the two sides, guns and cannons did not last long, the Jin army was unwilling to delay time, and rushed up to fight with a big axe, two white flags attacked Sun Shoufa on the left wing, two blue flags attacked Du Hongfang on the right wing, and Haoge met with Yue Tuo as soon as he came up, they were brothers-in-law, they usually walked close, and they often held together in battles, and the two yellow flags and two red flags stared at Ma Xianglin in the center of the fierce attack - the battle flag of the Ming army of the other side was too conspicuous in a black eagle flag, and it could not beat the Fengzhou army, maybe the Ming army was easy to deal with.

Ma Xianglin didn't expect to be attacked by the elite of the Four Banners Jin Army as soon as he fought, the stone soldiers had weak bow and arrow interception ability, the Jin army quickly rushed to the front, the sky was full of arrow rain thrown into the dense infantry array, and the stone soldiers with uneven armor were shot down one after another, but one fell down and immediately made up for another, and the ash pole spear immediately pierced out, blocking the Jin army from the infantry formation. The dead soldiers of the Jin army boarded the chariot and flew to jump to the infantry formation, many people were stabbed to death by dense spears in mid-air, but the surviving ones held knives and axes in the crowd and slashed and killed indiscriminately, unless they fell, they would never stop, the number of dead soldiers in this group was not large, but they tore a few holes, and the stone soldiers were dented in a few places.

The younger generation didn't fight a tough battle, and it was still worse than their father and brother, and it was a pity that the old brother who died in the Hunhe River - Ma Xianglin sighed in his heart, waved his hand and ordered the sloppy head to lead the two hundred Ma family's family members to counterattack. The sloppy head of the tall but extremely brave man went out to fight with a plate axe, the combat power of the Ma family's private soldiers was really good, the Jin army was beaten back dozens of steps in a hurry, taking advantage of the Jin army's attention shift, Ma Xianglin mobilized the knife and axe hand to kill the Jin soldiers in the battle, and sniped the Jin army soldiers with a strong crossbow. The two battalions of Sun Shoufa and Du Hongfang did not miss the opportunity to caress the enemy's two wings, and poured a dense rain of arrows on each other, and the Jin army was beaten on three sides and was forced to slow down the attack, Ma Xianglin's infantry immediately contracted, stabilized again, and the sloppy head covered in blood also withdrew, but only came back less than 100 people.

Sun Shoufa on the left wing faced the strength of the two white flags, and the strength was several times that of him, always suppressed him with an arrow array, and repeatedly impacted the infantry formation with elite soldiers, fortunately, the left battalion of the infantry army has been an army for a long time, the armor and weapons are excellent, and there are many Yulin veterans in the army, Dolgon and Duoduo brothers want to eat him It is not easy, the flag soldiers have been fighting for a long time, and they are a little slack for a while, Sun Shoufa and Ma Danian, the deputy battalion officer, are both brave and combative, and find an opportunity to take turns to take the soldiers to fight back, and they can also help Ma Xianglin in their spare time. Du Hongfang on the right wing is very lively but there is no danger, Jierharang is too fine, and he will never do anything to make a show, but he will not let people grasp the handle, the offensive is terrifying, but the actual investment of troops is not much, Derge is stupid, but he knows how to learn - the two of them play similarly, use the arrow array to control the main battlefield, but do not rush in, but choose elite soldiers to raid at the right time, dig a piece of meat from the other party and eat it slowly, Du Hongfang was bitten a few times, but he did not hurt the bones.

"Decree all banners, but those who have made meritorious contributions will give priority to replenishing the young and strong population in the future, and those who dare to slack off will be punished, and there will be no distinction between population and property." Tiancong Khan shouted angrily. This stalemate made him very angry, what happened to the invincible elite of the Eight Banners in the world today, it was so cowardly, fighting a group of farmers and not taking it, fighting more and less or listless-On the entire battlefield, Haoge and Yuetuo and Sakhalian brothers are still working hard, and Dolgon is not bad, so it is difficult to say about the others.

In fact, Tiancong Khan himself was also in his pocket, holding more than 4,000 elite cavalry in his hands, but he didn't dare to let go of the pressure to fight - the weakness of the Jin army's insufficient strength was exposed, maybe Li Yu was coming, and the last few thousand cavalry were the capital to save his life and go home, and he didn't dare to use it easily. The population of the Eight Banners is too small, and the number of soldiers is seriously insufficient, so more Mongols must be incorporated into the Eight Banners, and the Ming army that surrendered to the Daling River cannot eat in vain, and they all have to fight for Dajin-Tiancong Khan thought with annoyance.

The Great Khan was furious, and the Baylors did not dare to slack off any longer, and the minions under the command began to attack, and the offensive of the Jin army suddenly intensified. Haoge wanted to fight for his Lao Tzu, personally stepped forward to supervise the battle, inlaid with the yellow flag Baya Laxu Zhang Jing Yangshan went into battle with a knife, commanded a group of white armor to make a big gap from the ash pole spear of Rulin, and rampage in the drill formation, the spear more than one zhang long used by the stone soldiers suffered a loss in the melee, and was beaten back step by step by this group of white armor, and the Jin army took advantage of the situation to break into the formation. The stone soldiers couldn't resist it, Ma Xianglin's flag officer also fell to the ground with an arrow, Zhang Fengyi rushed forward to take over the flag, waving it vigorously to boost morale, and her female soldiers kept shooting arrows at the Jin army. Ma Hutou was ordered to attack again, leading the family to intercept the Jin army, Ma Hutou was not tall but brave, facing the tall Yang Shan pounced, the two fought for a while, Yang Shan's helmet was cut off with a layer of scalp, and his face was full of blood and became hateful, and Ma Hutou was even more unlucky, and was carried off the battlefield by Yang Shan's two knives. Ma Xianglin knew that something was wrong, and ordered to shrink the infantry formation again, and at the same time sounded the call for help, and he didn't dare to think about revenge, just to be able to hold it until dark.

The left and right flanks have been unable to assist Ma Xianglin, under the onslaught of the Jin army, the left battalion and the rear battalion of the infantry army have also sounded the call for help, and the front battalion and the right battalion of the infantry army quickly went up to support, so that all the battalions of Fengzhou have been put into battle.

"At least we won't lose this battle, after more than an hour, Yuzi may be coming, the Jin army is not strong enough, and the thousands of cavalry behind have never dared to move." Du Wenhuan stood on his horse and carefully observed the battlefield, his face looked very calm - the seven thousand Fengzhou army and Shi Yan soldiers faced more than 10,000 Jin troops, although they fought very passively, and the casualties exceeded 1,000 people, but the large array did not move, on the contrary, the Jin army began to go crazy, but Du Wenhuan was not afraid, and the retreating garrisons relined themselves after a short rest and prepared for battle, and he still had more than 10,000 troops to call on.

"The call for help ahead is blowing urgently, and it may be a lot of trouble, so I can bring some people up for reinforcements, right?" Ma Guangyuan whispered on the side.

"Don't worry, the Jin army has been fighting since early in the morning, I don't believe they can keep the offensive all the time, the front should be able to withstand it, and when our iron cavalry arrives, we will launch a counterattack with all our might."

"I'm worried about Ma Xuanwei, he contracted too fast, but he didn't dare to launch a counterattack, so he couldn't fight passively for long!"

"You take Xuandewei's soldiers to go, and the artillery battalion will also go together," Du Wenhuan thought about it and agreed, the biggest weakness of the Ming army is that they dare not fight hand-to-hand, the stone soldiers and the Ming army have been mixed for a long time, and they have also contracted this problem, once the spear array is broken through, it will definitely be defeated, fortunately, the Fengzhou army is quite good in this regard, he ordered loudly, "Order all battalions, fight to the death and not retreat in the end, if you can't hold the big formation, you can split it into a small formation by yourself, and put the Jin army into the array to kill." ”

Ma Guangyuan's reinforcements did not directly meet with Ma Xianglin, but detoured back to the flank of the stone soldiers - he was also unwilling to mix with the Ming army, preferring to go it alone. The Jin army besieged Ma Xianglin is handy, found that someone sneaked up to provoke, more than 1,000 people with red and red flags immediately killed violently, and the 15th brigade of Xuandewei happened to collide together, the captain Dehun An howled and led people to pounce on it to fight, and then the deputy garrison Li Wanqing also joined the battle group - the garrison fought for a morning, and the courage was already great, and he was full of food and drink and wanted to beat people, seeing that the number of Jin troops was not much, Urden and Zhang Mengcun even dreamed of annihilating the other party.

"Nonsense, how can the Jin Army be so easy to fight! It will not be useful to fill in all your three thousand, so withdraw first, and I will teach you how to fight. Ma Guangyuan immediately poured cold water on the two of them, Ding Qiming came up with the artillery battalion, and shouted and scolded to drive the garrison away, and the Jin army was surprised that the other party suddenly dispersed, and an infantry circle had been formed on the opposite side, and the five artillery pieces had been pushed up and aimed at them under the escort of the foot soldiers.

Then the artillery battalion began to perform, first the artillery continued to bombard, and then the bird gun salvo, bullying enough for the Jin army, and the garrison took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the Jin soldiers could not eat enough to fight, and fled back in embarrassment. Sakhalian was angry, and regrouped more than 2,000 people to counterattack, but he also had no choice, the infantry formation was supported by artillery, almost impregnable, and the artillery had the infantry formation to rely on, and there was also a chance to reload the guns, and the other side also had bird guns and grenadiers who were swimming and attacking, and they were cold enough to hit a few rows of bird guns and throw a few thunderbolts into the pile of Jin soldiers, and the Jin army could hardly form a powerful offensive. Sakhalian has never seen this kind of infantry formation, artillery and artillery cooperation, after repeatedly suffering several losses, he lost his temper, 2,000 elite soldiers were actually beaten back step by step by more than 3,000 garrisons and artillery soldiers, Sakhalian also sounded the call for help in a very embarrassing way, Yue Tuo and Haoge had to squeeze out more than 1,000 people for reinforcements, Ma Xianglin's pressure was greatly reduced, and he came back to life!

"See no, the battle should be fought like this, the guns support the infantry army, the infantry army protects the guns, if there are cavalry, you can take advantage of the situation to attack, maybe you can defeat Jinkou." Ma Guangyuan was triumphant, and the effect of the fighting method he came up with was really good, and the other party had no way to increase his troops to 3,000 people, he couldn't help but point at Ding Qiming, Jin Guoding and a group of Xuanhewei officers, "You young people, you just don't like to use your brains in war, especially you, Dehun An, you sleep in the martial arts selection camp, and you know how to fight hard when you go into battle, how can you get it like this." ”

Dehun An's face was flushed after being reprimanded, but Ding Qiming, Jin Guoding and Li Wanqing looked at the old horse with admiration, and Wuerden and Zhang Mengcun not far away muttered quietly, and the old horse began to blow again.

The Jin army attacked for a while without achieving results, the banners slacked off again, the battlefield was still an impasse, Tiancong Khan's face was pale, but he did not give the order to urge the battle - the Jin army was too tired, after crossing the Xing'an Mountains, he pursued Chahar Khan for more than 40 days, and he had not been rested, and immediately fought the vicious battle of Kuku and Tun, and the people and horses were exhausted to the extreme, maybe this battle should not be fought.

"Great Khan, withdraw your troops!" Big Belle Daishan finally spoke, and this sentence has been held back for a long time.

"Great Khan, it's not a shame to withdraw now, it's going to be troublesome when Erlu arrives!" Mang Gurtai speaks unpleasantly.

Tiancong Khan glared at Mang Gultai fiercely, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, but his musings were interrupted by the speeding white-armored scout.

"Twenty miles east of Kuku and Tun, there was a large force of armored cavalry fighting the Black Eagle Banner and the Flying Tiger Banner, and the number was about 6,000."
