Nothing unknown to the destination!

Cao Conglong and He Decheng took more than 1,000 former green battalion soldiers pulled out of the coolie camp to Dongyang County, the purpose was either to return to the division with Liu Cheng, or to go to Yushan Town to seize the warehouse, or both. As for what to do next, Taizhou, or Luo Chengyan, it is estimated that there are only two locations, anyway, Chen Wen doesn't believe that these guys will have the courage to go back to Fucheng and fight him to the death.

But whether it is to join forces with Liu Cheng, or to seize the warehouse that has been hoarded in Yushan Town, or to return to Luochengyan, these are all intolerable to Chen Wen, so they must be exterminated as soon as possible!

The main force of the counterinsurgency led by Chen Guobao has long been far away, and Chen Wen is now only the garrisons of the original three counties of Wuyi, Lanxi and Jinyun, and the only thing that has a big advantage is that he still has more than 200 cavalry in his hands. However, the soldiers are very fast, and it is obvious that there is no time left to recall the army, and now it is necessary to send troops to defeat it as soon as possible, only in this way can it be guaranteed that the storage of Yushan Town will not be taken by it.

Cao Conglong had just left the coolie camp when he was discovered, and according to the Yiwu County guard, his troops were marching at a slow pace. If we take into account that the boats on that section of the Dongyang River are not enough to provide too much capacity, it is not surprising that the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow should be able to completely complete the work of crossing the river.

With the issuance of the military order, the advance team of the water camp and the requisitioned part of the ferry from the Wujiang wharf, relying on these capacities, Chen Wen loaded the army in the meantime, took advantage of the recent wind direction is relatively smooth, and set sail directly, returning to the first county town he personally recovered to draw an end to this rebellion.

The fleet traveled up the Dongyang River until it was across the river from Yiwu County, and Chen Wen laid down all his cavalry and let them continue to explore in order to grasp the situation on the road ahead.

On the morning of the 17th, when the returning sentinels informed them that the rebel army under the banner of the governor of Zhejiang and the Fubiao battalion had completed the crossing of the river and was resting for a while, Chen Wen ordered the cavalry to come forward to harass them, and the large army still on board immediately landed and marched to the position where the enemy was located.

It has only been a few days since this army was reorganized, and it is still in a situation where the soldiers do not know the generals and the generals are also unknown. Although the more than 200 horsemen in Chen Wen's department are not very abundant, this Fubiao battalion is only more than ten horses from He Decheng and below, and even the officers can't be distributed, plus there are not many weapons and armor in the coolie battalion itself, when this brigade appeared in sight, it immediately caused an uproar.

In the afternoon, the infantry led by Chen Wen appeared in front of the rebels who were harassed by the cavalry, and those cavalry also took advantage of the situation to retreat and prepare to charge the battle.

The infantry team of the three outposts on Chen Wen's side was originally the garrison of each county, and it still uniformly used the mixed formation of the mandarin duck array killer team and the firearms team last year, but in fact, there were only more than 100 hand-to-hand infantry soldiers.

And the new battalion on the opposite side, at a glance, there are all kinds of weapons used, not only the wolf whisks, spears, knives and shields, boring palladium, and pointed flat poles used by the Ming army, but also the short axes and iron hammers they usually use to perform hard labor, and even the rakes and hoes of the peasants, and more of them are pointed wooden spears made in the past few days, and the clothes are even more tattered and tattered, even worse than the group of beggar soldiers that Chen Wen saw when he first met Wang Sheng.

"Governor Cao, you have always tried your best to put these chickens and dogs together, are you here to send me a head, or are you going to go to Taizhou to send a head to Ma Xin?"

More than 1,000 infantry were blocked by more than 100 hand-to-hand infantry, more than 100 marksmen and more than 200 cavalry on the bank of the Dongyang River and forced to conduct a field battle. However, the distance between this place and Dongyang County is actually only about ten miles, and the garrison of Dongyang County has not appeared yet, and God knows what will happen.

Time was running out, and after a short rest, Chen Wen ordered the team to reorganize and slowly step into the relatively flat area that was separated. At this time, Cao Conglong and He Decheng could only passively line up in a circle formation, trying to defend against Chen Wen from using the mobility of the cavalry to tear a gap from the soft underbelly.

The opponent has an absolute advantage in numbers, but the number of shooters is even smaller than that of the Ming army. In this case, the infantry team of the three outposts marched forward according to Chen Wen's order, and stopped when they were less than a hundred paces apart, but the archers who followed the back row came to the front row from the interval of the Mandarin Duck Array killer team, lined up in two rows, and began to shoot according to the military order.

It was not that there were no soldiers who used to be archers in the Fubiao battalion, but the number of rifle bows found in the coolie battalion was very small, and the hunting bows looted could not be compared with the Jinhua Ming army in terms of range, so they immediately fell into a passive situation of being beaten from the beginning of the shooters of the Jinhua Ming army.

There are only more than 100 shooters in the Jinhua Ming Army, and these shooters are all from local garrisons, and the accuracy of shooting is actually not very high, but they can't be beaten back, which is really unbearable for this newly formed Fubiao battalion.

Surrounded by old troops who have been in the army for more than half a year, facing a group of hooligans who are newly formed but may not even be worthy of the word army for a few days, Chen Wen still plays like this. This guy was so shameless, which He Decheng, who was in charge of command, could not have predicted, but now it was too late to say this, and it wouldn't take long for the army to collapse naturally, so he had to order the troops to attack the Ming army's large array.

Less than a hundred paces away, the Jinhua Ming army turned to shoot rapidly after discovering that the opponent was advancing in formation, and the archers quickly took arrows and drew bows to shoot, which was a great drain on physical strength, but their opponents did not delay too much time, and soon marched to a distance of less than fifty paces, and these archers retreated into the formation after the last round of shooting, and turned to the Mandarin Duck Array killer team that defended in a column according to the code to meet the enemy.

The distance between the two sides was only a few dozen paces, but due to the different speeds of each team, the front line of the Fubiao battalion had become uneven, and the soldiers in the front and the back were nearly twenty paces apart!

He Decheng couldn't see it very clearly behind the formation, but the experience accumulated over the years made him realize that he should reorganize the team at this time, otherwise he would inevitably be besieged by the opponent as soon as he took over the battle, and the battle formation would be completely over as soon as it was broken. The Fubiao battalion reorganized in order, and the shooters behind the Jinhua Ming army also began to shoot from the back, and the sword and shield soldiers in the front row struggled to support it, until it was almost too much, and immediately re-advanced.

The front of the two sides was getting closer and closer, and when the sword and shield soldiers of the Fubiao battalion threw over the only dozens of javelins sharpened with wooden sticks, the Jinhua Ming army immediately changed into a big three talent formation according to the drill and killed the front of the Fubiao battalion.

In fact, Cao Conglong and He Decheng still have to thank these former green battalion soldiers for their treatment in the coolie camp, and the belief that the soldiers who don't want to return to that situation stick to it is nothing more than that, but when the Ming army came to kill in formation, the memories of the previous defeat in the Ming army's mandarin duck array came to their hearts again.

As soon as they took over, the wielded wolf whisk immediately suppressed the sparse pointed wooden spears of the Fubiao camp, as well as the wolf whisks that had not yet mastered how to use them; Even if they can't suppress it, the long players standing in the front row will stay in front of each pawn, blocking the opponent's attack with a heavy long card; Under the almost perfect defense, the rattan players and pikemen came out together, attacking the opponent as crazy as they were training, and even the boring and palladium players who were originally guarding the flanks began to assist in the attack, and the more the entire junior talent formation advanced, the more it changed, and began to unconsciously switch to the small three talent formations that were more suitable for attacking.

As soon as the two armies made a slight contact, the front of the Fubiao battalion began to retreat unconsciously, and the gap in the quality of the soldiers on both sides was too great, and it was a miracle that it was able to support it until now. If nothing else, the cavalry in Chen Wen's hands only needs to be used for pursuit, and the work of breaking the formation is all handed over to the infantry team.

It's just that the variables that had been expected before really came, and the moment the horse returned, the Ming army of the brigade began to appear in the direction of Dongyang County, but it was far away, and it was not clear the font number on the banner.

"Reinforcements have arrived, kill Chen Wen!" (To be continued.) )
