Originally, the composition of the Qi army was only one in Shandong, but now it is quite complicated.

The veterans and ruffians of the former official army are greedy for life and afraid of death, and are accustomed to opportunism, especially some homeless bachelors, who always want to join the army to eat and drink.

Shandong's local salt and water thieves are fierce and abnormal, but at first it is difficult to obey discipline.

In addition, most of them were recruited recruits, who came from peasant families and had only recently been settled in the Nanjing Imperial Court's recultivation and farming policies, and some of them had to start with the most basic training.

As the saying goes, a soldier bears a bear, a nest of bears, a real capable person can turn decay into magic, Wang Zheng may not be such a person, but the strict and complete mechanism effectively ensures the quality of the sergeant, and there are many good generals who have this quality.

Coincidentally, Qi Yaowu is good at the first class of graduates of Licheng Military Academy.

As early as when he was in the military academy, Qi Yaowu was the center of the students in the same period, and he entered the army for training and internship a few months before the others.

The Qi army can always have some miracles that ordinary people can't understand, and now the four generals of the forbidden army who follow Wang Zheng, as well as the main generals of various state capitals, were originally not worth mentioning, but now they are all good.

There has never been a shortage of good horses in the land of China, and in troubled times, there are always many talents, and the few are just Bole who can recognize these good horses, and there is a stage where they can show their strengths.

Wang Zheng is that Bole, in the rising Qi army, the military generals have a long and short military exploits, and the civil ministers can be promoted by virtue of their truth, which is exactly the stage they need.

Therefore, it only took less than a year of hard work for Qi Yaowu to rise to the position of the commander of the first battalion with his excellent command talent and bravery, and at this time, he was only twenty-five years old.

The war drums suddenly sounded, and the Qi army and the Qing army's iron cavalry rushed together, and the expected collapse and scattering did not appear, but were completely mixed together, and it was difficult for either side to win.

Almost all the cavalry charging in front of the Qing army turned on their backs, and a very small number of them directly smashed the defense of the Qi army and rushed into the formation, but at that time, the formation of the Qi army was still complete, and they could not escape the end of being poked into a bloody hedgehog.

Qi Yaowu rushed in front of the battle in the first place, and repeatedly caused damage to the Qing army, and his bravery was abnormal, and he soon entered Abatai's eyes.

Abatai scolded angrily, without any hesitation, and directly jumped on the horse with a spear to kill, Qi Yaowu was also fearless, and turned around to meet him.

At this time, the remnants of the Chuang Army Horse Team, who had retreated to the back to recuperate, looked at the scene in front of them, and most of them were speechless in shock.

Not long after, the panting Tian Jianxiu ran wild and came back with more than a dozen horses:

"King Chuang, the Shandong army is all infantry troops, and it will definitely not be able to resist for long, let's take the opportunity to withdraw to Beijing, Xu Tu's future, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!"

Although this is true, Li Zicheng couldn't open his mouth before giving the order this time, and the reaction made by Qi Jun made him feel a little surprised until now.

Originally, he and Wang Zheng were mortal enemies, and their subordinates were naturally like this, so they could ignore themselves, you know, there were more than 20,000 Tartar cavalry.

If these Qing soldiers chased him to the death, Li Zicheng didn't know if he would be able to escape back to Beijing alive.

But not only did the Qi army not turn a blind eye and take the opportunity to fall into the well, but rushed forward in the opposite direction without hesitation, and the firearms soldiers were nervously debugging the equipment, and it seemed that they had no defense at all.

"What did you say!"

Li Zicheng suddenly roared angrily, pointed to the battlefield and said:

"The Qi army was born and died in front, listen to their words, Huaxia is one, only the East is punished, isn't it enough to understand, how can it be the turn of the Manchurian soldiers to intervene in the internal affairs of Huaxia!?"

Li Zicheng's sudden anger made Tian Jianxiu dare not speak again, and the generals and horse teams around him were speechless, obviously feeling disgusted with what they had just thought.

In fact, many people have a deep fear of the Manchurian soldiers, and the fear is mixed with a lot of anger, Li Zicheng is exactly like this, he first glanced at Tian Jianxiu, and then turned around and shouted:

"Didn't you say that the Qi army only has infantry troops and firearms soldiers, then okay, let's be their cavalry and block the Manchurian soldiers first!"

Under the order of King Chuang, the cavalry of the old battalion of Dashun around him naturally did not say anything, and turned their horses' heads one after another, Li Laiheng clenched the waist knife in his hand, and shouted indiscriminately:

"The Qi army is watching from the side, and they are all fighting bravely, so that they can see if our Shaanxi masters are bad seeds, come on, kill all the pigtail soldiers!"

Dashun's slogan is more straightforward, after all, they have never fought with the Qing army, and calling the pigtailed soldiers can better make everyone understand, anyway, there is only one enemy in this battle, that is, the Manchurian soldiers with ugly braids.

"King Chuang, I'm back!"

"I'm also back, kill the pigtail soldiers, how can I be missing!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves from the north side, and it turned out that Hao Shaoqi and Li Guo, who had just been separated, surrounded them, but the number was not large, and the three parties together were only more than 3,000 people.

"Yes, yes!"

When Li Zicheng saw the two of them coming back, his heart suddenly settled, and he ordered:

"General Ding (Hao Shaoqi), and General Quan (Li Guo) each of you led a thousand old battalion elite cavalry, and rushed straight over from both sides, remember, only pigtailed soldiers were killed in this battle!"

Hao Shaoqi and Li Guo looked at each other and smiled, hugged their fists to receive the order, and rushed back with more than 2,000 Dashun cavalry, they roared past the rear firearms battalion of the Qi army, but no one took a second look.

Hao Shaoqi laughed and said:

"Damn, I'm going to kill this time!"

Li Guo laughed the same:

"This time, there is the Qi army as the front, just kill!"

Although these Shaanxi men are a little more rebellious, they still abide by morality in their hearts, and after Li Zicheng gave the order, they immediately entered the battlefield in batches and surrounded the Qing army from all directions.

"Tian Jianxiu, order you to lead five hundred elite cavalry to stay in the Chinese army and gather the rout!"

Speaking of this, Li Zicheng looked at the Qi army firearms battalion that had just fired a salvo, and continued: "If there are Manchurian soldiers who want to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Qi army firearms battalion, stop them!" ”

Tian Jianxiu nodded and said:

"Don't worry, King Chuang, wrap it up on me!"

Li Zicheng was still very relieved of Tian Jianxiu, he nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand:

"Set up the banner, General (Liu Fangliang) You go straight to the Chinese army with this king to support the Qi army, if they are defeated by the Manchurian soldiers, it will be our turn next!"

Liu Fangliang was caught off guard excitedly, nodded and then clenched his fists and said:

"After the king of Chuang, the last general will take the old camp to the current!"

In the battlefield, 20,000 Qi soldiers and more than 8,000 blue flag cavalry fought together, although Abatai could suppress Qi Yaowu, but the other party seemed to know that he couldn't beat him, and he dodged left and right flexibly, and he couldn't cut him off the horse for a while.

Just when the two sides were anxious, there was a heavy sound of horses' hooves in the rear, and a group of Qing cavalry of about 1,000 people held tiger-headed broadswords, their eyes were shining, and they were roaring and killing.

These Qing soldiers wore red and gold-trimmed full-body armor, carried steel tiger guns on their backs, and had spurs embedded in their boots, which was the standard configuration of the three banners on the Eight Banners of the Manchu Dynasty.
