Zhang Yingxiang is a northerner, in his early years, he was an officer in Zhili, and almost all the large and small wars of the Chongzhen Dynasty caught up, fought with Li Zicheng in Henan, fought with the Qing army in Zhili, and fought with Kong Youde in Shandong.

The older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are.

"Li Chuang is very capable of fighting, but the Eight Banners are invincible in the world, and the firearms of the Tianyou soldiers are also very powerful, which is quite unique." Zhang Yingxiang knew that he had a few catties and taels, so after following Zuo Mengeng to surrender, he was desperately loyal to the Qing court, and the Henan Green Battalion under his command was not even a second-rate army, at best it was a third-rate, and it was only worthy of carrying shoes for the Tianyou soldiers and being lackeys for the Eight Banners...... Sheep will only tremble when they see the tiger, and they will not even have the courage to escape, and in the face of irresistible power, human beings will instinctively produce fear and surrender.

Last night under the Yuezhou battalion suffered a defeat, today happened to catch up with the battle of Zhaojiawan, in order to atone for the crime Zhang Yingxiang took out the last capital, sent 300 hardcore soldiers to fight with the Yuezhou battalion, and it was easy to maintain an invincible situation.

Under the fierce attack of the Yuezhou battalion, the Henan Green Battalion was about to collapse several times, and the reason why he has been supported to persist until now is that he is convinced that the Eight Banners and the Tianyou Soldiers can defeat the Chu army and turn back to rescue themselves.

Seeing that the Chu army sent musketeers to attack Tushan, he felt that victory was in sight, and encouraged his soldiers with confidence: "Tianyou soldiers are the ancestors who use muskets, and the southern thieves are getting axes in Banmen." Suicide! ”

But the course of the battle greatly surprised him, and the Eight Banners were dispatched, but they failed to turn the battlefield around. After the Tianyou soldiers encountered the musketeers of the Chu army, they launched an unusually tragic firefight.

There is no blood-boiling charge, and there is no shouting and fighting of pneumatic mountains and rivers, only round after round of platoon guns fired repeatedly, constantly harvesting the lives of soldiers, after the soldiers in the front row were knocked down, the soldiers in the back row silently stepped forward to fill their positions. Raise your gun and continue to shoot at the enemy, and then continue to be knocked down by lead bullets.

Cruel! Blood!

"What should I do if there is a Henan Green Camp on the earth mountain at this moment? No. You don't have to think about it so much, you must have been defeated a long time ago. Zhang Yingxiang's body was motionless, but his legs were trembling slightly uncontrollably, and he clearly felt the sweat on his back dripping down. Half a life. Zhang Yingxiang is also an experienced veteran, but he has never seen such an iron-blooded, dull and savage way of fighting.

He had to re-examine his positioning, the Chu army and the Tianyou soldiers showed steely discipline and iron will, and the soldiers had the courage not to be afraid of death, and the Henan Green Battalion was absolutely unable to withstand such a battle, so it had to be demoted from a third-rate army to a fourth-rate army...... There is no way, there are too many strong armies. Of course, the Eight Banners are still first-class, and the musketeers of the Chu army seem to be similar. Tianyou soldiers can be regarded as second-rate, but their own troops are obviously two grades behind, and it is a bit reluctant to count them as fourth-rate.

After being defeated by the Yuezhou battalion, Zhang Yingxiang was afraid of the Chu army, but it was just a general fear, and now seeing this magnificent musket shooting, it made him extremely shocked in his heart, as if he was nailed to the ground and did not dare to move.

The green battalion soldiers also stopped fighting, no one looked at the Yuezhou battalion on the opposite side anymore, they all looked at Tushan blankly with their mouths open, they were already very familiar with the rhythm of the two armies' platoon shooting, after the Tianyou soldiers unexpectedly fired the platoon guns, more than a thousand green battalion soldiers turned their heads in unison, watching the Chu army musketeers fall in pieces in the rain of bullets, and then raised their guns to shoot back, and more Tianyou soldiers on the opposite side were knocked down, and the cycle began again and again, and it seemed that there would never end.

"Fortunately, Tan Xiao is also watching the battle and doesn't care about me." Zhang Yingxiang was secretly lucky in his heart, his green battalion soldiers were also frightened by this vicious battle, judging from their stunned looks, the morale of the Henan green battalion had fallen to the brink of collapse, if the Yuezhou battalion launched an attack at this time, they were afraid that they would collapse without a fight.

What to be afraid of, what to come. Although the Yuezhou battalion did not move, the Eight Banners received an order to retreat, and the Chu cavalry then pursued.

Seeing the Eight Banners leaning on the barrier running backwards, but the cavalry of the Chu army killed themselves, many green battalion soldiers immediately turned around and fled, the atmosphere of panic was rapidly contagious, more and more soldiers threw down their weapons to join the ranks of the rout, at this time, Zhang Yingxiang's personal soldiers were supposed to act as a team to maintain military discipline, but they were also full of horror, looking at Zhang Yingxiang together, hoping that their generals would immediately order a retreat.

The troops have begun to be chaotic, and if they don't leave, they will be wiped out, Zhang Yingxiang of course wants to retreat, but the Manchu masters are still fighting bloodily, and escaping from the battle is a crime of killing the head.

"Retreat! Move closer to the dirt mountain! Although he knew that there was little hope, Zhang Yingxiang still had a hint of luck...... Perhaps, the Eight Banners and the Heavenly Blessing Soldiers may create a miracle, turn defeat into victory and win this battle, and then take the initiative to protect Tushan, without merit and hard work, even after losing battles, no one will be held accountable for giving up the responsibility of the left wing and escaping.

Thousands of people lost their armor and fled, but Wang Meng, who caused this qiē, was inexplicable, he was obviously going to the Eight Banners Cavalry, why did the green camp next to him collapse first?

If it is a plan to lure the enemy, those green battalion soldiers run and trample, collide and cry, throw knives, guns and weapons all over the ground, and even have generals wielding swords and slashing over the soldiers who are blocking the way, and the acting is too realistic.

"Chase!" Wang Meng rode forward, and more than 200 cavalry of the Chu army followed closely behind him, raising their swords and shouting in unison, and went straight to Zhang Yingxiang's general flag......

The green battalion on the left flank was defeated, and the Heavenly Blessing soldiers on the earth mountain also reached the last moment of life and death.

The six tiger squatting cannons have long since become mute, and they all rely on the musketeers to resist, but how long they can last, Hutab and Jiang Dingyuan don't know. All the infantry, auxiliaries and wounded soldiers were sent to reinforce them, but there were fewer and fewer birds still shooting, and a large number of soldiers had lost their fighting spirit, lying on the ground and refusing to get up, and even their commanders were crouching on the ground to command.

The overseer team composed of the Eight Banners ran back and forth, roaring, kicking and beating, forcing the Tianyou soldiers to get up and fight, forced by their threats, the Tianyou soldiers stood up one after another, but as soon as the Eight Banners soldiers turned around, they immediately slipped out and shrank down.

The tiger tooth knife was raised high, and a soldier of the Eight Banners gritted his teeth and issued an ultimatum, and the Tianyou soldier in front of him still did not move, so he cut off his head with a knife, and then hacked another one to death, and then another ...... After hacking to death five or six Heavenly Blessing soldiers in a row, the other soldiers were still lying on the ground with their heads in their hands, preferring to be hacked to death rather than get up, the Eight Banners finally let out a roar, threw down the tiger tooth knife that was regarded as life, and snatched the bird gun from the hands of the Heavenly Blessing soldiers, and wanted to fight in place of these cowards in person.

There were countless lead bullets whistling in front of him, and the Eight Banners fell to the ground like a piece of wood.

"Get your pro-soldiers on board!" Hutab's face turned pale, and he resolutely ordered.

All the cannon fodder was used up, but the morale was irretrievable, so Jiang Dingyuan's personal army could only be used. These Han generals regard the pro-army team more seriously than their father, mother, and son, Jiang Dingyuan will definitely be extremely dissatisfied, but Hutabu can't manage so much.

The soldiers under the generals were also cavalrymen, and most of them practiced riding and slashing, and rarely touched the muskets, so they picked up the bloodstained bird guns from under the corpses of their companions, and pulled the trigger to the opposite side with a bang.

Some of the guns were fired, but many more were not loaded, and an even more chaotic scene ensued, as they searched everywhere for powder packets, leads, tongs, and arquebuses...... There are even people who think that the bird guns are malfunctioning, and they slap the barrel of the gun, and then lift it up and knock it on the ground a few times, as if this will fix them.

"Fill the gunpowder first!"

"Poke the lead with a stick!"

"Watch out for your arquebus...... Ah, I'm cāo! ”

The process of loading the arquebus is very complicated, there are more than 30 steps before and after, and there are many dangerous links in the middle, and if you are not careful, you will hurt yourself and your companions.

From time to time, someone went off the fire or ignited the fire rope on the companion's body, in a curse, the normal loading of the Tianyou soldiers was also disturbed, did not play this round of guns in time, but, the opposite Chu army seemed to be never late, only to see the smoke of the fierce orange fire, horizontal line, vertical column, if there are also traversers in the Tianyou soldiers, immediately will be associated with LED billboards.

The billboard lit up for less than two seconds before it suddenly disappeared into the smoke, but a series of screams rang out in the ranks of the Heavenly Blessing Soldiers, and the soldiers who had just joined the battle were shot one after another and fell on their dead comrades.

On the position of the Qing army, there are fewer and fewer officers and soldiers who are still upright, so that they appear so abrupt, and they have become the key target of the Chu army.

The counterfire had turned into a one-sided slaughter, and the firepower of the Tianyou soldiers was completely suppressed, and there was no chance to turn the tide of the battle, so they could only be completely wiped out under the continuous volleys of the Chu army's musketeers. Hutabu on the earth mountain couldn't bear it anymore, suddenly turned over and jumped on the horse, pulled out the tiger tooth knife and waved it high.

"Follow me!"

Two hundred Eight Banner cavalry, is Hutab's last hope, he does not dare to hope to defeat the Chu army, but at least to disrupt the enemy's offensive rhythm, for the Tianyou soldiers to win respite, of course, he knows that the possibility of success is very slim, but it is better than sitting still.
