Looking at this scene, Yang Yongtai, the superintendent, couldn't bear to say: "General, it seems that what they said is true, if the Eight Kings were not killed in battle, how dare everyone risk the taboo of the Eight Kings and keep saying that Zhang Xianzhong has died in battle?"

Look at the crowd of refugees for several miles, all over the mountains and wilderness, it is really a hell on earth. ”

Jing Keqin touched the beads of sweat on his face and said: "Yang Jian Jun, it seems that the Liukou was raided, Zhang Xianzhong was unfortunately killed, and now more than 100,000 troops have escaped.

We're just a small cottage, and we can't stop the army of rogues, and we can't stop the army of Tartars.

For now, we need to hold out for a few days to buy time for the general to deal with the fleeing crowd. ”

Although the arrival of the two was extremely tricky, it was only necessary to do so for the sake of the current plan.

From noon to night, there were many people fleeing, and the next morning there were many fewer people fleeing, and the parents breathed a sigh of relief to relieve the tension a little.

Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting and killing in front, Jing Keqin picked up the binoculars and took a look, and saw hundreds of people with green flags and strange clothes four or five miles away, shouting and chasing the sparse crowd of refugees.

Everyone was stunned in their hearts, and Yang Yongtai said: "General, this should be those traitors."

Adults often say that the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, the Tartars in the defeat of the Great Western Army after the morale of the whole army is high, everyone is not aware of the slightest danger, now actually dare to green battalion soldiers dare to go deeper than 20 miles, we can take advantage of the fatigue of its members to kill the generals, a little frustration of its edge.

Jing Keqin nodded and said: "My 6th regiment is now a first-class regiment, and there are more than 2,000 people in the whole regiment. ”

The strategy was immediately agreed, and Yang Yongtai led a battalion with the assistance of the villagers to set up an ambush on the hillsides on both sides, and Jing Keqin led the rest to block the incoming enemy.

The soldiers and horses of the Green Battalion led their troops to pursue the Liukou for more than 30 miles, fighting and seizing a lot along the way, all of them were in extreme excitement and pretending to talk.

From a distance, I saw a large cottage in front of it, because the cottage was steep and dangerous, the official road bypassed a ravine next to the cottage.

Seeing the green battalion soldiers and horses killed, some people desperately fled to the cottage, some hid in the woods on both sides of the mountain road, and more fled south along the deep ditch.

Now that Zhang Xianzhong is dead, the news of the collapse of the rogues has already spread, and in addition, another news that makes people want to move has already spread.

Zhang Xianzhong has been dominating the world for more than ten years, killing three Ming vassal kings in his life, raiding countless states and counties, and plundering millions of wealth.

Now the rout is scattered, some of them carry the wealth of the rogue, just today at noon everyone saw with their own eyes two or three strong men desperately carrying a short chestnut tree to escape, the green battalion soldiers and horses opened to see, it was full of silver ingots with white flowers.

Many people find that the rogues have money on them, and some of them are even softer.

People die for money, birds die for food, and the generals of the green battalion are not aware of the danger in front of them at all, and one of them leads hundreds of people to run desperately into the ravine, while more of them follow behind desperately.

This just gave the volunteers the opportunity to close the door and fight the dogs, and the volunteers who were ambushed on both sides of the mountain road took the opportunity to attack the green camp that entered the ditch.

The explosions rang out, and the six large Francophone guns of the regimental headquarters took the lead in attacking, and the fireball pierced the sky and fell into the ditch, hitting the ground and hitting the people and horses, and then talking again, turning several times before stopping, if it hit the middle of the crowd, it could inflict heavy damage on four or five soldiers in a row.

Seeing that they fell into the ambush circle of the volunteers and entered the ditch, the soldiers and horses of the green battalion were in chaos, but this just gave the volunteers on both sides of the slope an opportunity to attack.

Everyone threw lit fireballs into the ditch, and the fireballs rolled down, burning all over the mountains and fields for a while.

In addition to the CD plain, most places in Sichuan are hills, high mountains, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty sparsely populated, many places are lush with vegetation, now it is a cold winter, the dry grass is on fire and burns very quickly, now hundreds of soldiers continue to roll down the burning fireball, everywhere is thick smoke billowing, less than half a ring, the whole long ditch burns a piece.

Falling into the ditch, the green battalion soldiers will be in a mess, some desperately climb the cliff in a vain attempt to escape from the ascending to heaven, but the cliff, in addition to the volunteers on the slopes on both sides, there are many local people, everyone hates the puppet army, and throws stones into the ditch to help.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the rear team of the green battalion changed to the front team in a vain attempt to kill and escape.

But at this time, Jing Keqin had already led two battalions of soldiers and horses to kill, one battalion as a reserve to block the Tartar rescuers, and the other battalion to block the valley bottom.

Ignoring the flames burning behind them, the Green Battalion soldiers were far away, and everyone charged to the bottom of the ditch regardless of casualties.

At this time, the volunteers had already controlled the bottom of the ditch, and under the leadership of the captain and squadron leader, the volunteers lined up in several phalanxes to block the bottom of the ditch, and when the other party rushed to eighty steps away, they suddenly attacked.

With a command, the sound of birds continued to sound, and the distance between the two sides was less than seventy or eighty steps, and in a few moments, more than ten green battalion soldiers would fall in a pool of blood.

Behind them was a mile-long raging flame that was devouring the lives of the Green Battalion generals, and those who retreated would inevitably be burned to death, and those who advanced had a chance to escape.

For the sake of this last hope, the soldiers and horses of the green battalion in front charged forward regardless of the casualties and rushed forward one after another.

The two sides soon stuck together, and everyone started a fight at the bottom of the ditch. As the saying goes, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, and the green battalion soldiers are now in a desperate situation, and there is no choice for the other party to escape, although the bottom of the ditch is full of the corpses of the green battalion soldiers, but they still desperately rush to the bottom of the ditch to kill.

In the face of the trapped beasts of the green camp, the fourth battalion responsible for blocking was very passive for a while, seeing that the phalanx was about to be broken by the other party, Yang Yongtai, the sub-supervision army, thought of the several 10,000 enemies that the adults had added before leaving.

Ten thousand enemies for the end of the Ming Dynasty artifact, in the Tiangong Kaiwu and other books are recorded, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty there are many records of use, the performance is similar to the modern rolling thunder, the outside is made of clay, the inside is filled with a large number of gunpowder and poisonous substances, weighs about 60 catties, suitable for defending the city.

A person carrying two pieces in a basket was placed at the bottom of the ditch, and after they were ignited, they rolled down, and a deafening explosion sounded, and the sand and stones flew around the bottom of the ditch, and the crying and howling sounded together, and the soldiers and horses of the green battalion were in chaos.

The volunteers at the bottom of the ditch took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack, and after a bloody battle, the bottom of the ditch was finally blocked, and more than 1,000 soldiers and horses of the green battalion who entered the ravine, except for a few who escaped, all the others were burned to death by the fire.

Hearing that the soldiers in front of him entered the ambush circle and were ambushed by the volunteers, Bai Yongfu, the chief soldier of the green battalion, was shocked and hurriedly led his troops to kill, but now the various units have already been scattered, and there are very few soldiers and horses that can be gathered in a moment and a half.

When arriving at Dujiamiao, the soldiers and horses of the green battalion at the bottom of the ditch were desperately breaking through to the bottom of the ditch, although Bai Yongfu led the troops to rescue, but Jing Keqin led the troops to block it, and the rescue could not be done at all.

The sun was in the west, the war at the bottom of the ditch gradually ended, and when he heard that more than 1,000 soldiers and horses under his command were wiped out, Bai Yongfu saw that the situation was not good, and he was afraid of being raided by the volunteers, so he was forced to lead his troops to retreat ten miles back and set up camp.

In addition to leaving a few soldiers to lead the villagers to clean up the battlefield, Jing Keqin and Yang Yongtai also collected troops and returned to the camp, one by one.

Some of them marched around the streets with a few green battalion troops, gambling on the shameful end of betraying the country and seeking glory, and looking at the monsters that were shaved into pigs' tails, people were not human and ghosts, and everyone was furious and threw all kinds of miscellaneous objects to surrender to the surrendered troops.

As soon as I returned to the cottage, I received a reply from the governor's yamen, opened it and took a look, and sure enough, as everyone expected, a large number of rogues fled to Shunqing Fucheng.

The lord has already led his troops to leave Shunqing City and set up camp ten miles outside the city to settle the displaced people, and now there are only Yang Bingyi's 5th Regiment and Yao Chonglie's 2nd Cavalry Regiment stationed around to assist in the battle.

In order to settle the displaced people, it is now necessary to hold on to the periphery for several days, until the army is fully prepared for defense, and then fight to the death with the Tartars in the city of Shunqingfu.

Considering that the Tartars were running for a long distance and the rear supplies were not available, they would inevitably loot the surrounding cottages, and all ministries and local militia groups were required to help the people to do a good job in the defense of each cottage to prevent the Tartars from looting grain and baggage from the people.
