Because there is a whirlpool of more than 100 steps wide of the river, no matter which side makes the first move, the other side will be aware that it must wade through the river, which is too difficult not to alarm the other party.

Although the river is not deep, after all, it is slower than the flat ground, and this vortex is within the range of firearms of the Jiaozhou battalion.

After all, the north bank is just an upside-down wooden fence, not the thick city wall of Kaifeng City, but the death of more than 3,000 homeless people yesterday made Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai feel worried in their hearts.

After all, the soldiers who have fought in old battles know how to save their lives on the battlefield, and if the opponent's firearms are indeed very pressed, these people may not rush forward so fanatically.

Everyone has an estimate that if the border soldiers and old brothers in Shaanxi are allowed to rush upward, there will be no less than 3,000 dead, and these people are all backbones, forcing them to be powerful, and it is not impossible to fight and mutiny.

But then use cannon fodder to rush, when the corpses were buried yesterday, these homeless people were already frightened, and there was no effect like yesterday before they caught up, and the tens of thousands of troops on the opposite side, relying on the Yellow River and the largest Zhuangzi in Guide Prefecture, the supply problem was not big, but how many hundreds of thousands of people had to consume to eat and chew.

Although the Li and Luo coalition forces have a certain amount of logistics, the military food supply that this logistics military supply can provide is for these hundreds of thousands of people. It's really too meager, and most of them have to rely on opening up the stockade and the county town to replenish it, and even now, these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, those in the outermost part sometimes have to eat some bark and wild vegetables.

If you just don't embarrass and don't embarrass each other. Officers and soldiers don't matter. But I'm afraid that my side is about to collapse, don't many people follow the army just for a bite to eat, and this food, the army can only be obtained through constant movement and continuous siege of cities.

King Li Zicheng was indeed worried, Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance suggested to him several times, saying that the momentum of the king's land had been achieved, and he should be nourished by a place. In order to do great things, instead of fighting everywhere like now, it is in vain to waste the morale of soldiers and horses. The following generals also have similar meanings.

But at present, Luo Rucai wants to return to Shaanxi, and even many of his subordinates are in this idea, but there are not too many relatives and friends of Li Zicheng, the king of Shaanxi, and his relatives are either born and died with him, or they were killed by the local officials of the Ming Dynasty, but Luo Rucai is different, and his subordinates have a large proportion of Shaanxi border soldiers, and they return to Shaanxi. Gather those scattered frontier soldiers, and the power will swell.

When Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng joined the army, it was almost the size of more than 40,000 people, but these more than 40,000 people were the core elite, so he had the status of being equal to Li Zicheng.

What is the purpose of this rebellion and war?

Hundreds of thousands of troops were encamped on the south bank, in addition to increasingly tightly guarded areas close to the riverbank. There has been no movement.

When the sun was about to set, the camp pushed more than a dozen guns to the shore, ready to try to bombard the first two rows of fortifications, but the dozen or so guns in the camp were the most old-fashioned gun mounts, which were extremely troublesome to move, and there were still a dozen steps from the river bank.

I saw that the officers and soldiers on the opposite side worked together to move the wooden fence away, and also launched five artillery pieces, which were equipped with large wheels underneath. It's a lot quicker to move.

Moreover, the loading and ammunition of this officer and soldier artillery is really amazing. After the artillery was launched, three hits and five divided by two were already loaded with shells. Ignition fires.

A total of three rounds, this time the Shandong soldiers and horses used iron bullets, although the power is slightly worse, but the range is farther, as soon as I saw the landing point of the first shell, pushing more than a dozen guns forward to the camp artillery is a rush to disperse, three rounds of artillery down, in fact, the other side of the artillery smashed three, not even a person was injured, but to show the army the ability of the Jiaozhou battalion to break firearms.

Warn the other side not to have any unrealistic ideas, if you want to come and fight, you will have to come over under the washing of the steel storm of our Shandong soldiers and horses, and you will have to pay a huge price.

After the rumbling cannon, the two sides were quiet again, if it weren't for Li Meng's order, the Jiaozhou camp generals would still think that the two sides were putting their camps on both sides of the whirlpool.

All the big leaders of the army saw all this outside, and even the most optimistic people turned gloomy and silently turned back to the camp.

When Li Zicheng turned back, he stared at Hao Shaoqi, and thought in his heart: "Hao Shaoqi told me that day, there is nothing exaggerated. After pondering for a while, he glanced back at the layers of fortifications on the opposite side, and sighed secretly:

"Sure enough, there is the capital to force me to sign the alliance under the city!"

It was so quiet again, in the dead of night, someone ran out of the camp again, ready to drag the artillery back, not without thinking, taking advantage of the night to fire a few guns to find a bargain, who would have thought that the torches on the opposite shore were bright, and a few guns were placed there, and the artillery was also on duty.

Comparing the range of the artillery of the officers and soldiers with their own artillery, the artillerymen of the invading army still pulled the artillery back to their camp in a foolish manner, and it was better not to provoke it.

This night is so stalemate in the past, in the middle of the night, Gao Yigong once quietly entered Li Zicheng's camp tent with Niu Jinxing, and his face was a little ugly and reported to King Chuang, the military rations are at most able to support ten days, and this battle must be ended as soon as possible, or another city must be laid, and the *** of the king's military tent will be very late......

"The king, the king, the officers and soldiers across the river have moved." Early in the morning, Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, was woken up by the leader of the guards who rushed in, and the leader of the guards was from the rivers and lakes, and was promoted to the leader of the guards because of his strong martial arts. However, this fuss habit always makes people frown, Li Zicheng rubbed his face a few times, and said in a muffled voice:

"Tietong, you have been with me for so many years, why are you still so unstable. ^^^It's so quiet outside. If there is a big job, won't other generals come and report it? ”

"Good, good, good"

Li Chuang, who rode out of the camp on horseback, said three good words in a row on his horse, and his face, which had been gloomy for two days, saw a rare smile, and the nearby wooden fence did not know when it had been moved, and only a group of soldiers lined up from the high slope to the river. According to officers close to the survey, the soldiers from the top of the slope to the bottom of the slope were firecrackers, and the intervals between the queues were large.

The officers and men guarded like this, as if they were hedgehogs covered in thorns, and there was no way to get out of their mouths, but they withdrew the offensive themselves and put on such a posture, obviously they were going to attack.

Now I am not afraid of him attacking, but I am afraid of him defending. As long as he was pulled out and beaten, there were many people, and one person drowned him with a mouthful of foam.

Not only Li Chuang was happy, but even Luo Rucai, as well as Li Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang and other generals were all elated, and the only person who raised a different opinion was Tian Jianxiu, who said uncertainly:

"King Chuang, will there be anything strange ......?"

Those of them who had fought were really a little unsure of the details of the soldiers and horses of the Jiaozhou battalion in their hearts, but at this time Hao Shaoqi did not make a sound. Liu Fangliang interjected on the side and said:

"Even if something is wrong, this dignified fight is better than us stupidly rushing up to death."

Li Zicheng glanced at Luo Rucai and said with a smile:

"Lao Cao, the soldiers and horses in the field are still stronger under you, how about it?"

At this time, Luo Rucai was not as shirky as yesterday. Concentrate on the opposite setting. Nodding heavily, he spoke:

"My son-in-law from the front team is here to attack. Big brother, you protect my wings. ”

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and ordered loudly with his own soldiers, and mobilized troops to prepare a formation between the south bank and the large camp to meet the officer

From the north bank of the river to the top of the slope, rows of musketeers stood at maximum intervals, and fired in rotation according to this spacing, and it took about six platoons to fire non-stop, but they were only here to defend.

Behind the top of Lijiapo, the soldiers and horses of each battalion of the Jiaozhou battalion have already opened the camp, and they are gathered and standing according to the soldiers and horses of the battalion.

Li Meng is rarely wearing his full coat, covered in stainless steel armor, behind the big red coat, the horse he is riding is also a high-headed horse specially purchased from the Western Regions by Lingshan Commercial Bank, with Li Meng's figure, this dress really looks very powerful, at this time the sun has just risen, the sun shines on Li Meng's body, and the whole person seems to be shining. And Chen Liu, Zhang Jiang, Wang Hai and others were also wearing full armor and standing solemnly in front of the formation on horseback, and behind Li Meng there were more than a dozen soldiers who were also riding horses.

In the early morning, the soldiers were all called up by the officers, and after breakfast, they came to the outside of the camp to line up, and everyone naturally knew that the big war was coming, and there were hundreds of thousands of thieves on the opposite side, no matter what the combat strength was, this number was very frightening, and everyone was a little worried in their hearts.

But seeing their own commander patrolling back and forth before the battle, everyone felt that their hearts were gradually filled with courage, and there were many legends among the soldiers of the Shandong general soldier Li Meng in these ordinary Jiaozhou battalions, from the beginning to the command of nearly 100,000 troops, every step can be told as a story.

Shandong General Li Meng, he is a legend, and now this legend is in front of him, he has to lead himself to fight, it must be from victory to victory, what else do you have to worry about.

Every soldier and officer of the Jiaozhou battalion consciously or unconsciously straightened his chest, clenched the weapons in his hands, and showed his best side to the commander for review.

Each battalion was a team, and there was a lot of space between the battalions, and Li Meng galloped between the teams, and when everyone's attention was attracted, he slowed down his horse and shouted loudly on his horse:

"Brothers, where are you behind your back?"

After Li Meng finished speaking, the personal guards who followed him shouted in unison, repeating Li Meng's words and shouting out, as soon as Li Meng spoke, the array was already extremely quiet, only Li Meng's words were echoing.

As soon as the soldiers below heard the words "brothers", they all felt that their hearts were filled with something, and they felt their blood boiling for a while. The second sentence is a little confused, where is the back, many people look back, isn't it a camp, and the landed people think farther. Could it be Zhecheng?

And the landlords in the distance watched the scene with awe. At this time, tens of thousands of people in the Jiaozhou battalion were silent, standing solemnly, as if a majestic giant was preparing for him.

While everyone was still pondering, Li Meng had already answered for them:

"Behind you is Shandong, where your parents and relatives live!"

"You follow me to fight in the south and the north, in this world, is there a place more peaceful than Shandong? Is there a place where you and your family can be fed? ”

Li Meng asked loudly, and the soldiers below answered messily and noisy at first, and then converged into a huge wave

"No!!" "No!!"

Li Meng has been to the south, and shouted loudly:

"What is on the other side, hundreds of thousands of thieves, locusts that ravage the world, they will plunder every place they go, eat up all the food, take away all the young and strong, and starve all the old and weak. If we can't stop them, these thieves will enter Shandong, destroy the peace of our Shandong, rob your family of the grain they have worked so hard to cultivate, and let your family members be called cannon fodder for river filling, or starve to death, do you agree? ”

These words have completely mobilized the emotions of the soldiers, and after Li Meng finished speaking, he replied like a tsunami in the mountains below:

"No!!"

Calming down a little, Li Meng took out his saber and raised it above his head, and shouted again:

"Pick up your swords and guns, think about what you are fighting for, not for yourself, for your family and elders, for your father's and mother's food and smile, and for the peace of Shandong."

It was a tsunami again, but this time it was not to answer Li Meng's question. Instead, he shouted hoarsely:

"I am willing to die for the commander. Fight for the Great!! ”

As soon as everyone asked Li Meng's question, they subconsciously thought of their own food and clothing. The food and clothing of his family is like hell compared to other places, and the situation in Shandong and where he came from to live like this is not the credit of Li Dashuai.

In the battalion close to Li Meng's mount, some soldiers were already shouting and crying, and the fanaticism of being willing to sacrifice their lives to fight was completely from the bottom of their hearts.

"Jiaozhou battalion, forward!!"

Li Meng waved his sword forward on the horse, and shouted this order loudly, and the soldiers shouted along, and the commanders and generals of each battalion, the non-commissioned officers of each column, and every soldier shouted in unison:

"Onward!!" "Onward!!"

The drums were beating continuously and knocking, and those landlords who had been watching calmly on the side were only exhaling at this time, and they really didn't even dare to make a sound.

These landlord armies and the people they gathered were also useful, resisting the filling of the river, each of them carrying straw or cloth bags full of dirt on their shoulders, and others carrying baskets full of rubble.

The drums sounded, they received the order, and hurriedly ran towards the river, leaving them with a path that was the gap between the firecrackers, these Henan people ran tremblingly, each column of firecrackers was a wall composed of living people, and the two columns formed a road.

These dozen or so "roads" have strict requirements on where to go downhill and back to where the soil is taken.

These Henan landlords armed people, carrying dirt and gravel, running carefully, the gap is large enough, they will not and dare not touch the fire soldiers on the side, these young people in Henan, many of them listened to Li Meng's speech, they were all excited, just thinking, how good it would be if I was a soldier in this Jiaozhou battalion.

And this "river filling" is different from the river reclamation that broke into the camp yesterday, they are not cannon fodder, because the soldiers of the Jiaozhou battalion who stand at the front only need to throw soil and stones into the river behind them.

The first and second rows of musketeers stood on the shore, and the men who came down threw earth and stones into the river to fill up a piece of land, and they followed a little forward, and the brigade behind them also moved forward slowly.

The roads are clear, and the dirt is packed in meadows and cloth bags, so that it will not be washed away by the river if thrown into the water. The mixed gravel makes the land more solid.

The road is smooth, not rushing up, but planning the road and the number of rounds, and also filling the river, what the officers and men do is much more efficient than breaking into the army.

On the opposite side, they are lining up to meet the generals of the ground army. I saw the endless flow of people filling the river. Tian Jianxiu patted his forehead with his hand and cursed in his mouth.

And Luo Rucai of the Chinese army looked cautious, and he still scoffed at the noise and shouting from the opposite side, but at the moment he was awe-inspiring, he was rude, but he was also a veteran of the battle-hardened position, so he naturally knew what all this in front of him represented. "It is common to gather and disperse soldiers."

The array of soldiers and horses on the other side is strict to such an extent, thinking about the terrible situation of the other party that Hao Shaoqi said, as well as those rumors that were originally thought to be incredible, it may not be an exaggeration now.

Although in order to prevent the firearms of the officers and soldiers from being threatened, Luo Rucai and the Chuang army pressed the front very back, almost three hundred steps away from the river bank, which was also to give their cavalry space to attack.

But all the people who were at the forefront of the front could see the Jiaozhou battalion firefighters in a strict formation on the opposite side, as well as the surging crowd of people filling the river in it. The river was constantly splashing, and the opposing team was constantly moving forward.

These soldiers didn't move fast, but the pressure on them was getting bigger and bigger, Luo Rucai's brows were getting tighter and tighter, and finally shouted behind him:

"Lao Jiu, you lead five hundred horses up and around, the other party's firearms are powerful, be careful, don't be beaten!"

A younger general clenched his fists and rode his horse to greet him. led hundreds of horsemen to gallop out, and now this kind of leading army is like to receive righteous sons, with the relationship between righteous fathers and sons, and they are also relatives within the nine clans, compared to outsiders, the relationship must be much closer, and it is also reassuring to use.

Luo Rucai is also not exempt from vulgarity. There are also the so-called "Thirteen Taibao" under his command. As for why the number thirteen is put together, it is incomprehensible.

At this time, the whirlpool river had been filled up almost half the distance. The firearms commander standing in the first row saw the opposing cavalry moving, and he also gave a loud order.

The first row of firecrackers directly held the firecrackers high, walked into the river, waded on the north bank first, the first row moved, and the back ones also moved, and the firecrackers all walked forward with some difficulty in the water, fifty steps, not far, before the light cavalry came over.

The firecrackers of the Jiaozhou battalion stepped forward to the south bank, and the people who were still filling the river behind were a little stunned, and they were immediately driven by the shouts and roars of the officers and their leaders, "Don't stop, don't fuck you go to the front and fight hard" "Who is stupid, Lao Tzu cut him!!" ”

After leading the firearms commander ashore, he took more than a dozen steps forward, looked at the terrain left and right, and erected the fire gun in his hand, standing upright.

He was a benchmark, and the rest of the firecrackers were lined up on his left side in battle formation, and in the blink of an eye, there were already six rows and nearly four hundred firecrackers ashore.

The light cavalry is already approaching, the firearms commander has made a slight estimate, and issued an order, Luo Rucai's Nine Taibao is very cautious, the cavalry is not happy, and has been trying to advance, but there are still a few horses that have entered the range of 100 steps, although the range of the Jiaozhou battalion's fire gun is 100 steps, but it is generally important to put it into 80 or 60 steps and then fire.

But in different battle situations, there must be different coping strategies, and under an order, the firearms in the first row are all raised, and a little preparation is to fire in unison.

Within a hundred paces, it was an effective firing range, and it was a salvo of dozens of firearms, and several light horsemen of Cao Cao's army who entered this firing range were beaten down with men and horses.

The Nine Taibao immediately judged and understood the situation, and it was dangerous within a hundred steps of this array of firearms, and hurriedly gave orders, and the hundreds of horsemen were all on the periphery and began to circle the horse.

Speaking of which, the distance between the large array and the river is a total of two hundred paces, and the line and range of the firecrackers are superimposed, which is about one hundred and twenty paces, and the light cavalry seems to have not rushed out, and the movements are very cramped.

The gravel baskets and soil bags are still being thrown in the river, and the firecrackers on the top of the slope are all wading across the river to the south bank to line up, perhaps the casualties of Tian Jianxiu and Hao Shaoqi in front of the firecrackers in the day before yesterday are too great, and although the large array of soldiers and horses on the opposite side is amazing, they did not dare to act.

"Break into the king, use the truck, or transfer the artillery?"

Gao Yigong looked at the battle situation and was a little anxious. The siege weapons and heavy firearms of Li Zicheng's army were much higher than those of other displaced military horses.

Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong, who have been pursued by the official army and joined forces with the camp, have a somewhat stable life, and there are almost no heavy weapons.

At present, the opponent's firecrackers have just gained a foothold on the riverbank, and according to Gao Yigong's idea, he should take advantage of the situation to beat these firecrackers back to the other side of the river. Or stand here. Step by step, how can this battle be fought, although if these firecrackers are to return to the other side, I am afraid that the casualties will be very heavy.

The wagon is the kind of thick wooden plank on the front, on which sandbags and quilts are placed, and pushed forward by manpower, because the front is a plank and sandbag, so the bow and arrows and firearms on the opposite side generally cannot cause any damage to the truck. Use the truck to cover the pawn behind you, and you can directly rush into the opponent's array.

It seems that against the musketeers of the Jiaozhou battalion, this cart is the best tool, seeing that the other party only has the musketeers ashore, and there is no artillery, it can be suppressed with artillery.

Since Luo Rucai is in the Chinese army in this battle, the leader is Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng is in front of the left flank, and he heard Gao Yigong say this. King Chuang didn't have any expression on his face, but he just turned his head to look at Luo Rucai's Chinese army on the side, and said lightly:

"When the truck and artillery were attacking the sealed city, they were already quite dilapidated, and they were used by Cao Cao, wouldn't that help him, don't you do this superfluous thing?"

Gao Yigong was stunned, but he immediately understood that he was a rare deep character in the army, and his mind was also moving quickly. Li Zicheng's glance at the Chinese army already explained a lot of problems, and he was a little quiet, and Gao Yigong stepped forward again and whispered:

"King Chuang, this big battle is imminent, there can be no loss of baggage supplies, the last general will go to the back first, and go farther, so as not to make mistakes."

Li Zicheng nodded quietly. Gao Yigong greeted a few people. Dial the horse and turn towards the rear of the formation.

is calculating here, Luo Rucai is not a three-year-old child. He turned his head to look at the soldiers and horses on both sides, spat at the ground, cursed a few words in a low voice, and ordered with a serious face to the soldiers around him:

"Hurry up and tell King Li Chuang, that official dog is a hedgehog, he can't eat a bite on the shore, and the cavalry can't rush up, so let's take the team back and pull out a place to charge, and I Lao Luo will retreat first."

As soon as the pro-soldier left, Luo Rucai and several cronies and generals behind him said coldly:

"Retreat, everyone show me your sons, don't mess up."

Hearing Luo Rucai's order, even his cronies were a little incomprehensible, and one of them boldly said:

"General, as soon as our Chinese army retreats, I'm afraid that the entire front will be dispersed, will King Chuang's side blame it."

Luo Rucai was in front of his henchmen, but he didn't hide anything, and said coldly with a dark face:

"Blame his mother, so many of the besieged and fighting families over there are all put behind the battle, let us go to death bare-chested, why, return his mother's righteousness to the king, retreat quickly, retreat three hundred steps, if this Li Chuang doesn't say, let's scatter the girl, mother, it's not that we have a bad time, it's a big deal to go to Zhao'an."

The three most prosperous forces in the world, King Chuang, Eight Kings, Cao Cao, Luo Rucai is the least determined one, several times he took the initiative to talk to the court about Zhao'an, and Cao Cao Luo Rucai's soldiers and horses acted the most unscrupulously, plundering, regardless of rich and poor, which may be related to the fact that most of his subordinates were border soldiers.

The whining horn sounded, and the Jiaozhou battalion firecrackers who were waiting on the front line raised their firearms nervously, preparing to fight, who wanted to make them stunned was that the Li and Luo coalition troops on the opposite side began to retreat slowly, what kind of ghost is this, everyone is confused.

Luo Rucai said that he would retreat, and the army was in chaos on both wings, and King Chuang was also a little caught off guard, but he was not slow to react, dozens of heralds rode horses and ran everywhere to notice, and after those chaos, the teams also slowly moved backwards.

There is one thing, whether it is King Chuang or Luo Rucai, they have done it in the front, the big camp has been opened early in the morning, heading towards the west, away from this battlefield.

The firecrackers on the north bank of the whirlpool had already reached the south bank, and the array of almost 2,100 people was lined up in four rows.

The river reclamation project was nearing completion, but the Li and Luo coalition forces were still retreating. The chaos when retreating is not so easy to control.

Looking at the top of the slope from a distance, a big flag slowly rose up on the top of the slope, with red letters on a black background, and a blood-red "Li" holding a big flag and controlling the horses slowly forward. Behind this flag-bearer. It is a murderous and rigorous Jiaozhou battalion team.

The rhythmic drums were beating all the time, and the soldiers of the spear phalanx stood upright, spear in hand, and marched through the land filled in by the people in front of them.

When the first two battalions crossed the land, there were still some stumbles, but after they walked, they were almost trampled on the ground, and the people who had filled in the river were strong. They all stood in the rivers on both sides of the land.

If they ran to the back, they would definitely disrupt the formation, anyway, the intruder army was already far away from the riverbank, and they ran directly into the river.

Watching the Shandong soldiers and horses walk across the land in a strict formation that they had never seen before, the people who were armed and concentrated by these landlords felt that they had also contributed to this big battle at this time, and they felt very proud in their hearts, and they all stood in the river on both sides and cheered loudly.

It didn't matter if they retreated, they had almost taken seven hundred steps back, and Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng put all the light horses in front of the formation. I'm afraid that the other party will come over because of this cover-up.

However, this retreat also represents the end of the honeymoon period between Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai's two armies in the Central Plains after the combined forces.

Li Zicheng led several henchmen to personally go to Luo Rucai's Chinese army to negotiate, and the two sides had a simple conversation, which was the final strategy, which can be regarded as a unified understanding.

The horses and foot soldiers of the invading army began to move towards the central army, since they were unwilling to play the vanguard alone. Then let's join forces.

The battalions of the Jiaozhou battalion crossed the river in an orderly and swift formation from the other side of the river, and the twelve battalions slowly unfolded, forming a long line on the battlefield, followed by twelve battalions.

These twenty-four squares lined up in two columns on the battlefield, leaving a certain distance between them, and erected like woodland spears, verifying the orderly procession.

The twenty-four squares are like twenty-four small cities, and a large plain on the south bank. The Li and Luo coalition forces placed 40,000 people in the front team. But 40,000 against less than 20,000. Everyone in the Li and Luo coalition felt the huge pressure, and for a while Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng thought. Maybe it's not a bad thing to retreat a few hundred steps, just engage in the nearest battle, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it!

"Brothers, don't worry about what happens after you die, I'll take care of it for you!"

"As long as I, Li Zicheng, have a bite to eat, my brothers' families will have something to eat, and if Lao Li doesn't eat, I will cut meat for my brothers' local family to eat!"

Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai both shouted loudly in their own array, and this first batch of soldiers who rushed to the position were almost certain to die in front of the firearms of the Jiaozhou battalion.

But such a pioneer can't use those cannon fodder homeless people, because those people certainly have a fanatical mentality, and they may be beaten back by the other party at any time, the degree of uncontrollability is too high, and they can only use this kind of old pawn.

The veterans of the two armies, either voluntarily or by drawing lots, always elect a group of people, which is also the rule before every big war, everyone has no look of fear, listening to the two people say this, and some people shouted loudly:

"Lord Chuang, our old Zhao will not regret it with you in this life, and he will carry a knife for you in the next life."

"General, if it weren't for you five years ago, I would have been eaten, this life is yours, you have to take care!"

Even with such hard-hearted hearts as Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai, they were a little excited in the face of these diehard words, Li Zicheng clenched his fists on the horse and shook it deeply, Luo Rucai wiped his nose and shouted loudly:

"Damn, go ahead, Lao Tzu will definitely find you a good coffin."

The twenty-four squares on the south bank were still making slight adjustments to each other's positions, and the firecrackers all ran to the first row to stand, and some gathered on both sides of the large formation.

Nearly 3,000 firecrackers stood at the front of the array, standing in a neat formation, and the drumming leading the pace had stopped.

The battlefield was a little quiet, and suddenly, the drums on the side of the Li and Luo coalition forces were loud, and the wandering militia soldiers on that side were all shouting in unison.

The first foot soldiers began to step out of the array, swords and guns in their hands, and these foot soldiers did not move quickly, just like the marching army, the formation was very scattered, the horizontal rows were very loose, and the vertical columns were very deep, and behind these foot soldiers, there were cavalry who followed slowly on horseback.

In the first impact, the army almost mobilized nearly 10,000 people, which was to impact the array of officers and soldiers, but unexpectedly, the drums on the side of the Jiaozhou battalion sounded in unison at this time, and the firecrackers in the front row also began to move forward, and the brigades behind were slowly following.

Liu Zongmin's eyes were about to pop out in the formation, and after looking at it for a while, he suddenly said loudly to the generals beside him:

"It's not right to fight like this, as soon as those official dogs move, the formation must be chaotic, isn't this chaotic, haha, it must be those civil officials who are urging them to fight faster, and pick up a cheap price for us, and the little ones are ready to keep up!!

Liu Zongmin is a straight intestine, he can't hide words in his stomach, and the generals in the camp and Cao Cao's army are also very surprised, the tactics of the officers and soldiers should be static braking, so hedging, it is not because of the bad head. But since this is the case, it means that they have the opportunity to drink and order, and the rear team is ready.

On the top of the slope, the cavalry of the horse team surrounded Li Meng in the middle, Li Meng looked at the battle on the opposite side, and said to Wang Hai beside him:

"Firearms can only knock the other party apart, these thieves are gathered up in a blink of an eye, the soldiers and horses of our Jiaozhou battalion are about to be raised by firearms, to win, to give the thieves a lesson that cannot be forgotten, what to do, can only be torn apart with real knives and guns, to cut his flesh and bleed!!"
