With Wang Kefan's shout, the Ming and Qing armies immediately reacted, and the loud noise just now must have exploded in the powder magazine in Pizhen.

The Ming army has conquered Pizhen!

The morale of the Qing army collapsed immediately, and the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted!

Morale is a psychological problem, it can't be seen or touched, but it will directly affect the outcome of the battle, and it will continue to change with the shape of the battlefield.

The main general of the Qing army shouted, waved his spear vigorously, forced away a few Ming cavalry in front of him, turned his horse around, rushed back to his team from the oblique stab, led the general to turn around and leave, and summoned his subordinates as he went, leading the Qing army to retreat on all fronts.

Unintentional love war!

Since the Pizhen warehouse was lost, the battle of the West Gate lost its meaning, and it would not be possible to defeat the auxiliary troops of the Gongyi battalion for a while and a half, but the main force of the Ming army would come to support at any time, and the longer it dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be for the Qing army, and it would be annihilated.

The rest of the Qing army retreated in droves, fleeing with the generals.

The auxiliaries of the Gongyi battalion froze.

Since the start of the war, they have been on the defensive, the enemy is too strong, the auxiliaries are desperate to barely resist, they hope to hold on until the reinforcements arrive, they never thought that they could win this battle by themselves, the Qing army suddenly ran away, and the auxiliaries were confused, not knowing whether to chase or not.

"Chase!" Wang Kefan turned over on his horse, raised his saber and shouted to the auxiliaries: "We have won!" We won! Catch up and kill the Tartars! ”

With an uproar, the auxiliaries rushed out with a roar, and only then did they react, they won, this battle was won! Don't worry how you win, now is the time for revenge!

The Qing army fled in time. It was not a completely out of control rout, but seeing that the Ming army was catching up, more than 100 people were separated to cover behind the palace, and the formation blocked the official road.

"Kill!" Wang Kefan led the pro-soldier team to charge directly into battle.

Burst in one go.

After Wang Kefan broke the formation, he did not entangle with the remnants of the Qing army, and took his own troops down the rice field on horseback, outflanking the main force of the Qing army.

Chase. Outflanking, interception, rout......

Ti Zhaorong had just defeated another Qing reinforcement and rushed to Ximen to support, and Wang Kefan ordered him to go to the dock to grab the ship. He also took the auxiliary soldiers to chase and kill six or seven miles in one go, and killed the Qing army. Corpses littered the field.

The auxiliaries fought hard to win the battle. Of course, let them pick the fruits of victory, this battle was enough to wipe out eight or nine hundred Qing troops, only a few remnants of the defeated generals escaped, the Gongyi battalion was in danger, there was no time to chase the remnants, so they turned around and returned to Pizhen.

The Qing army in Pizhen has been routed. There were blazing fires everywhere, thick smoke billowed out, the Ming army had completely taken control of the warehouse in Pizhen, and Wang Sheng and other generals were leading the troops to push the walls. A fire barrier was set up between the warehouses.

There are also two warehouses that are not on fire, and there may be good things in them, but they can't all be burned in one go.

"Squeak-"

The heavy gate was pushed to both sides, and in front of Wang Kefan and the others was a warehouse filled with all kinds of military supplies, row by row, stacked with neat and tidy, everything.

Salt packed in linen, oil in wooden barrels, pots and spoons, stove bellows, hammers and axes, iron picks, tongs, saws and shovels, ......, but unfortunately the Gongyi battalion did not use any of them.

Coming to the innermost part of the warehouse, there was a pile of wooden boxes in the corner that was very conspicuous, Tan Xiao picked up an axe and cut open a wooden box, which was filled with white silver!

This must have forty or fifty thousand taels of silver, which seems to be a batch of military salaries that have just arrived, which is just cheaper than the Gongyi battalion.

Moved!

No one will ever be disgusted with silver, thousands of people in the Gongyi battalion, it is very simple to take away these tens of thousands of taels of silver, Wang Kefan ordered the soldiers to move the silver out, and directly loaded it into a cart and transported it back to the camp.

The soldiers split the barrels, poured oil all over the storehouse, and brought in some beams of wood to burn the storehouse.

Wang Kefan led the generals to the second warehouse.

This warehouse is full of military uniforms, shoes and underwear, rope tents, ......, and more than 400 sets of brand-new armor, in addition to the military uniforms of the Qing army, other things can be used in the Gongyi battalion, but Wang Kefan hesitated, and only ordered someone to move the 400 sets of armor.

Other things were about to be set on fire, and the soldiers brought oil drums and were about to pour oil, but Lu Renqing stopped them.

"General Wang, these clothes are all good things! Shall we put on another tartar? Lu Renqing looked distressed, his mine apprentices often dug tunnels, and their clothes wore out the fastest, and they were all tattered in the past few months, and they were about to become Huazi soldiers.

"yes, let's change your clothes for everyone, it won't take much time!" Tan Xiao and Zhou Guodong also supported Lu Renqing, they were now the most powerful, and they didn't pay attention to the reinforcements of the Qing army at all.

"Okay, then move out quickly." Wang Kefan agreed.

It's a bit risky.

Pizhen was an important place for the Qing army, and after the sudden attack, the Qing troops from all walks of life turned around and pounced like cats that had been stepped on their tails.

According to the scout's intelligence, in addition to the two nearest Qing strongholds, Jin Shenghuan's main force is arriving by boat, and other strongholds of the Qing army have also sent reinforcements, but they are a little far away and have not yet arrived.

Can't wait for the vehicles of the battalion to return, the auxiliaries directly carried their hands on their shoulders, and carried all kinds of materials in the warehouse, and even the Qing army's uniforms were removed seven or eight thousand, Wang Kefan prepared the whole army to disguise and jump out of the encirclement of the Qing army.

After moving the things, the Gongyi battalion set fire to the warehouse, and sent people to other places to check whether the other warehouses were burned through, so as not to leave any materials, especially the two largest granaries, all the grain in them should be burned out, and there would be nothing left.

In addition to the supplies in the warehouse, there were several hundred Qing prisoners to deal with.

These captives were divided into two groups, one group was stubbornly resisted and surrendered after being completely defeated by the Ming army, Wang Kefan did not hesitate to behead them all.

Another group of Qing prisoners was a bit troublesome and difficult to deal with.

They were responsible for guarding these two warehouses, and after seeing the explosion of the powder magazine, they voluntarily surrendered to the Ming army, and it was for this reason that the two warehouses were left intact.

According to the rules of the Gongyi battalion, these prisoners should be treated leniently, but the battle of Pizhen was too fierce, and the Gongyi battalion suffered heavy casualties, and everyone hated the Qing army in Pizhen and was unwilling to spare them. (To be continued......)
