In front of the middle army of the Fat Army, the Mongolian cavalry was already a little unable to withstand the counterattack of the Fat Army, although the angular bow in their hands could easily shoot eighty meters, the musket of the Fat Army could not find the right head after sixty or seventy meters, and the gun flew there and even the Fat Army musketeers themselves did not know, but they could not stand the Fat Army's muskets, and they could not stand the Fat Army's strong bow that could also shoot eighty meters. Thousands of muskets of all kinds plus thousands of strong bows, bullets and arrows were so dense that they were like hail raindrops, and the Mongolian soldiers who were basically composed of only married children still shouted that they couldn't bear it, coupled with the shells of the fat army's mother cannons that fell from time to time, the even more irresistible Mongolian cavalry naturally began to retreat.

Seeing such a scene from afar, Zhou Peigong was inevitably anxious - since the Battle of Anshun, it was the first time that the cavalry of the Qing army broke through the rocket blockade of the Wu army and rushed to the front of the Wu army. When Zhou Peigong did not hesitate, while asking Kang Mazi to send a supervision team to rush to the front to supervise the formation, he even held Kang Mazi's golden arrow in both hands, and rushed to the Mongolian annihilation cavalry team that said nothing in front of the Qing army and did not dare to charge.

When he arrived at the Mengjian team, Zhou Peigong soon found that he did not launch a charge, and these Mengjian cavalry were the teams of Chahun, Ozier and Orbu, and at the same time, these Mengantai Jis were still arguing with the first-class guard Wolf Tan, who supervised the battle, and insisted that the fat man's firearms were too sharp, and the Mengjian cavalry only committed suicide and died in vain when they launched a charge, and asked to meet Kang Mazi to discuss and adjust tactics; Wolf Qin didn't dare to offend Meng Annihilation Taiji, who was basically related to the wild boar skin family, and didn't dare to disobey Kang Mazi's will, so he could only desperately persuade Meng Annihilation Taiji to charge immediately, and the dispute was inextricable. Zhou Peigong was even more anxious, and hurriedly rushed up to drink the golden order arrow, "By holy order——! ”

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live." The slave education of the Qing Dynasty was equally good at brainwashing the Mongol army, and several Mong Annihilation Taiji saw the golden arrow, and quickly gave up the dispute and knelt down and kowtowed together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the slave came to lecture on behalf of the master." Zhou Peigong said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense about a lot of minions, the minions just want to tell you one thing, yes, you are now in a cowardly battle, you choose to flee for your life or even choose to surrender to Wu Gou, you can indeed keep your surname!" But have you ever thought about it, if you surrender to Wu Gou, and the Qing Dynasty loses this time, can you keep your glory and wealth and your beautiful wife and concubine? ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, you all know very well what can the Mongolian steppe produce in addition to cattle, sheep and wild horses?" Zhou Peigong continued to ask loudly: "The food you eat, the tea bricks you drink, the silk and satin you wear, the gold, silver and jewelry you wear, and even the iron arrows you use to shoot wild sheep and hares, which are not from the Han people?" Didn't the Qing court snatch that for you from the Han dog? If the Qing Dynasty is defeated, who will give it to you for nothing? Exchange your cattle, sheep, horses, and dogs? But you have a good deal to raise cattle, sheep and horses to exchange with Han dogs, have you directly grabbed it from Han dogs? ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Peigong paused, and then asked a few Mengjian Taiji: "Ladies and gentlemen, please think about it, if the Qing Dynasty is defeated and Hangou regains the world, will the Hangou Emperor give you the tax and property he scavenged from the Hangou people for nothing?" Will the Hangou Emperor marry his daughter and sister to you? The Han Dog Emperor of the former Ming Dynasty, did he marry a princess to your Mongolian prince? Have you given any of you glory and wealth? In addition to several Northern Expeditions, killing people and setting fire to the Mongolian steppe, what else did the former Ming and Han dogs give you? But what did we do to the Qing Dynasty and how did we treat you? Your Fujin wife, which one is not a noble daughter from our clan from the Qing Dynasty? ”

"Mongolian princes, your lips are cold!" Zhou Peigong's voice was choked, and he said with a crying voice: "We Mizhou and Mongolians together are only more than two million people, but there are tens of thousands of Handogs. You have also seen that the Han dog Lu Yifeng is going out with filial piety this time, who is he for? It is for the filial piety of those Han dogs who were killed when we entered the customs of the Qing Dynasty, and I held back enough strength to avenge those Han dogs! ”

"When we entered the customs in the Qing Dynasty, did you kill fewer Han dogs in the Mongolian Eight Banners? If we're done with the cleanup, will you be able to run away? That Lu Yifeng dog thief with a heart darker than coal and more poisonous than a poisonous snake, will he let you princes of the Eight Banners of Mongolia go? Will I let you sons-in-law of the Xinjueluo family go?! ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Peigong also knelt down on his knees to several Mengjian Taiji, kowtowed and cried again and again: "Several princes, this is the words of the slave digging out his heart, the slave begs you, the Hangou's rocket is about to run out, and it is dangerous for you to rush forward, but you can fight for the last hope for the Qing Dynasty and yourself!" If the Qing Dynasty is over, you won't be able to run away! ”

Zhou Peigong's words finally moved a few Mengjian Taiji, Chahun and Ozier and a few other Mengjian Taiji thought about it carefully, and felt that Zhou Peigong's words were indeed very reasonable, if the mite Qing was defeated, even if they saved their surname, it would be absolutely impossible for Wu Lao Han to get the Central Plains to be like the Mites Qing court, and they would even try their best to win favor and trust them, and it was even possible to settle accounts after the autumn and investigate the crime of closely colluding with the wild boar skin family to poison the Han nation. The only way is to unite with the Mite Qing and join hands to suppress the counteroffensive and liquidation of the Xia Han nation against the Mite Qing court, so as to keep their glory and wealth, and their titles.

Thinking of this, several Mengjian Taiji exchanged a few glances with each other, got up together, and yelled at the Mengjian soldiers next to them: "Immediately form a team!" Charge now! Wu Gou's rockets have run out, rush up to kill Wu Gou, grab money, food, and women! The Menganji soldiers followed the order, and Zhou Peigong was so excited that he cried loudly, kowtowing to several Menganji Taiji, and saying please.

When the remaining more than 10,000 Mongolian cavalry lined up to charge again, the Qing infantry also began to act, divided into two teams led by Dong Weiguo and Cai Yurong, one left and one right to kill the two wings of the fat army, Kang Mazi personally came to the infantry formation to boost morale, called on the Qing infantry to rush and kill, and the fat army fought to the death, Dong Weiguo and Cai Yurong said together that they were determined to attack and would rather die than retreat. Zhou Peigong and Tu Hai and other old annihilators quietly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was best to win this battle, if they could not win, as long as they got rid of the unreliable Mongolian cavalry and the slow infantry, the remaining Mites Qing cavalry also had great hope of protecting Kang Mazi's retreat and going to the ferry in the lower reaches of the Yellow River to cross the river to escape for their lives.

"Lu Yifeng dog thief, your Wu dog cavalry is dead or alive, knowing that you want to save mobile strength and use it to hunt down the defeated soldiers of your master." Zhou Peigong still said proudly in his heart: "But it doesn't matter, if you don't move Uncle Zhou, I'll help you not move, Uncle Zhou, I want to see, what tricks can you play this time?!" ”

……………… At the same time, under the banner of the fat army, Lu Fatzi, Wang Shaobo, and Yao Qisheng were also keenly aware of the tactical changes of the Qing army, Wang Shaobo first said: "The tactical purpose of the full dog is very clear, bite the cavalry with the strongest power in our army, and the Mongolian cavalry will attack the infantry of our army with all their might, and the full dog cavalry will be used as a trump card to find fighters." ”

"That's not just the purpose." Yao Qisheng sneered and said: "There is also a purpose to facilitate the retreat, if the battle is unfavorable, the strongest and most loyal and reliable Mangou cavalry can protect the Mangou Emperor to retreat to the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and cross the river at the downstream ferry to escape." ”

Fat Lu nodded slightly, and said: "If you want to kill Kang Mazi, the only way is to bite the Mites cavalry full of dogs, so that they can't retreat quickly." ”

"General, how about letting our cavalry attack, avoid the full dog infantry, and mix with the full dog cavalry?" Yao Qisheng asked tentatively.

"No!" Lu Fatzi categorically vetoed it, and ordered categorically: "Immediately order the cavalry on both wings, let them retreat in the north and south directions, and wait for orders five miles away!" When you see the fireworks signal, launch an assault and return to the battlefield! ”

"Let our cavalry retreat from the battle?" Yao Qisheng and Wang Shaobo were both startled, and hurriedly reminded: "In this way, our Chinese infantry will have to bear the impact from the whole army of Mangou alone!" ”

"Only in this way will Kang Mazi put the last full dog cavalry into the battlefield!" Fat Lu didn't even blink his eyelids, and immediately ordered one after another: "Erlang, send someone to send an order to Lianfu, let him blast all the rockets out, there is no need for any left, there is no chance for rockets to play in this war." Send someone to Han Daren again, and let him also wait for orders five miles away from the Huai'an battlefield, wait for the fireworks signal, and then launch an attack! ”

Xiao Erlang, the oldest lackey under Lu Fatzi, didn't say a word, and immediately arranged for messengers to give orders respectively, Yao Qisheng and Wang Shaobo looked at each other, all of them admired Lu Fatzi's ruthlessness and quick decision, so that the cavalry and reinforcements waited outside the battlefield, and the infantry exhausted the physical strength and horsepower of the Qing army's infantry and cavalry, and then launched a general attack when the Qing army's cavalry and infantry were all exhausted, and the hope of annihilating the main force of the Qing army and capturing and slaughtering Kang Mazi was also greatly increased - the price was that once the Chinese infantry of the Fat Army could not withstand the onslaught of the Qing army, Lu Fatzi, who was in the Chinese army, would have to die at the hands of the Qing army if he himself did it.

The orders were conveyed separately, and the Fat Army's rocket array moved forward again, blasting out the remaining more than 3,000 rockets in one breath with quick hands and feet, weakening the Mongolian cavalry team as far as possible. At the same time, the cavalry of the two wings of the fat army led by Gao Dejie and Gao Hongchen brothers did not say a word, and took advantage of the slow Qing infantry before they could kill the front, turned their horses' heads and retreated in the north and south directions respectively, temporarily leaving the battlefield - Lu Fatzi's tactic is tantamount to leaving the danger to himself, and giving the opportunity to kill Kang Mazi and establish a miracle to the Gao brothers, and the Gao brothers are naturally very willing to obey orders.

In the rumbling explosion, the densely charged Mongolian cavalry once again turned on their backs, and once again shattered their bones and blood splashed, but because this time a part of the Mongolian annihilation had already rushed to the front of the fat army, the fat army rocket team did not have time to line up to expand the range of rocket coverage, so they could only hurriedly ignite and launch, so the rocket bombardment effect this time was obviously not as good as the last time, at least sixty percent of the Mongolian cavalry rushed through the rocket coverage of the fat army.

The smoke was gradually blown away by the wind, when a large number of Mongolian cavalry rushed to the front of the Fat Army, the infantry of the Fat Army pushed the empty rocket carts to the front of the formation to form a temporary anti-horse fence, the Qing Army and the Mongolian Army were inevitably thunderous, knowing that the Fat Army was the greatest threat to the cavalry, the three good rockets were finally used up. But when I saw the cavalry of the Fat Army retreating from the battle, the faces of Zhou Peigong and Tu Hai, two good friends, changed together.

"How did Wu Gou's cavalry escape?" Kang Mazi's reaction made Tu Hai and Zhou Pei almost vomit blood, and seeing the cavalry of the Fat Army fleeing without a fight, Kang Mazi actually laughed, "Luodi Xiucai is Luodi Xiucai, Lu Yifeng's dog thief's ability to command troops is also very average, seeing that his ghost rocket ran out, the most important cavalry team actually threw him down and ran, we are sure to win!" ”

"Master, the Wu dog cavalry didn't throw down Lu Yifeng's dog thieves and flee for their lives, they were saving their mobile strength." Tu Hai trembled and said: "Lu Yifeng's dog thief was afraid that our infantry would bite his cavalry, so he took the initiative to order his cavalry to retreat and avoid the battle, waiting for the opportunity to launch a fatal blow!" ”

"Really?" Kang Mazi's next words made Tu Hai and Zhou Peigong vomit blood again, "Then hurry up and send an order to Dong Weiguo and Cai Yurong, let them pursue with all their might, and they must bite the Wu Dog Cavalry!" ”

"Master, can our infantry catch up with Wu Gou's cavalry?" Zhou Pei almost didn't cry, and explained: "Lu Yifeng's dog thief let his cavalry temporarily leave the battlefield, in order to let his cavalry preserve the physical strength and the physical strength of the war horse, otherwise, his infantry would not be able to catch up with our cavalry." ”

Kang Mazi's numb face turned red rarely, and then he realized that he had said something stupid - how could a two-legged infantry catch up with a four-legged cavalry? At that moment, Kang Mazi hurriedly laughed and covered up: "I'm joking with you, what are you nervous about?" In your opinion, how should our army fight next? ”

"I can't help it." Zhou Peigong gritted his teeth and said: "Please make an order immediately, let the two generals Dong Weiguo and Cai Yurong lead the infantry to continue to advance, outflank and attack the two wings of the Wu Dog infantry phalanx, work together on three sides, and flank the Wu Dog infantry phalanx with all their might, as long as we can kill Lu Yifeng's dog thief before Wu Gou launches a full-scale counterattack, we can win!" ”

"Wu Gou has his back to the east gate of Huai'an, what if Lu Yifeng's dog thief escapes into Huai'an City?" Kang Mazi asked worriedly.

"Lu Yifeng's dog thief will not flee back to Huai'an City, and he will not dare to flee back to Huai'an City!" Zhou Peigong said with a sneer: "The main force of the Wu Dog infantry is attacked on three sides, and if he, as the commander of the whole army, escapes into Huai'an City, the morale of the main force of the Wu Dog infantry will collapse immediately, and it will not be far from death." ”

"What are you doing then?" Kang Mazi yelled: "Su Lun, immediately send guards to pass on my message, let Cai Yurong and Dong Weiguo attack the two wings of Wu Gou, and attack Wu Gou's army on three sides with the Mongolian cavalry!" Capture Lu Yifeng's dog thief alive and be crowned king! ”

After the tactical adjustment of the Fat Army and the Qing Army were arranged in place, the most brutal and bloody battle since the establishment of the Fat Army was also carried out outside Huai'an City, the dying and struggling Qing Army infantry and the Mongolian Annihilation infantry who were surrounded on three sides had no rocket, the Mongolian cavalry attacked head-on, the Qing infantry attacked left and right, the bows and arrows and axes in the sky were so dense that the sunlight was almost completely covered, the soldiers on both sides fell in rows, the ground was like a forest of knives and guns, guns and bullets came and went like locusts, people turned on their backs, and blood flowed like a river.

The 56,000 infantry of the Fat Army's army were arranged in this way, every 2,500 infantry formed a small phalanx, the outer 16 small phalanxes formed a large phalanx, the four small phalanxes in Tibet were used as reserves, and in the middle of the four small phalanxes were Lu Fatzi's 4,000 pro-army and 2,000 rocket troops. The Qing army was flanked on three sides, and the main force was the eastern, southern, and northern thirteen infantry phalanxes of the Fat Army, of which both sides in the north and south directions were infantry, and the Fat Army could still support it, but the east side was too bad, and the Meng Annihilation was not only good at bows and arrows, but the effective range exceeded the musket of the Fat Army, and the melee combat was also very advantageous.

The more severe test is still to come, Tuhai, who is not favored by Kang Mazi, volunteered to come to the front line to command, and the extremely insidious command of the Mongolian cavalry to attack the third party in the middle of the five phalanxes in front of the fat army, and the partial division attacked the two fat army formations next to it as a containment, more than 5,000 Mongolian cavalry half surrounded the third formation of the fat army, launched wave after wave of terrible charges, rushed to the front and condescendingly slashed at the fat army soldiers, although the fat army soldiers fought back with all their might, they had no choice but to attack too much, The casualties were extremely huge, and the range of the phalanx had to be gradually reduced, and the Fat Army sub-artillery team behind them was also forced to move to the center of the flag array.

In the melee, Yang Ming, the deputy general of the Fat Army who commanded the third array, was killed, and was hit by six arrows, and the deputy general Wang Laixing took over the command less than a pillar of incense and was killed by a stray arrow shot in the face, and was forced to take over the command by the guerrilla Zhang Wancheng, but less than half of the 2,500 Fat Army infantry in this phalanx was left, and it was compressed to the point that the soldiers fought to the death back to back, and the Menganxi cavalry rushed through their side like a tide, and quickly surrounded the Fat Army Yao Yi's team that came to the rescue, Yao Yi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly formed a formation on the spot, Continue to fight to the death with the Mongol cavalry.

At the same time, the superior infantry of the Qing army also created huge pressure on the left and right wings of the Fat Army, Dong Weiguo and Cai Yurong, two hardcore Han Annihilators, went into battle shirtless to boost morale, personally led the army to charge into battle, and imitated Tuhai's tactics to divide troops to feint and pinch, concentrating troops to storm the central phalanx of the two wings of the Fat Army, and breaking through to the depths of the Fat Army at any cost. The battlefield was filled with the sound of arrows breaking through the air, the sound of grenade explosions and the screams of dying soldiers, and the battle was so fierce that it was indescribable.

The most critical frontal third-party array was finally broken by the Mongolian annihilation cavalry, the fat army guerrilla Zhang Wancheng was besieged by more than a dozen Mongolian annihilation cavalry, and was forced to pull the last grenade and the two Mongolian annihilation soldiers died together, and the remaining fat army infantry was completely scattered by the Mongolian annihilation cavalry, and was wantonly besieged and slaughtered by several times the Mongolian annihilation soldiers, only a small half escaped to the friendly formations on both sides, continued to fight side by side with his companions, desperately resisting the attack of the Mongolian annihilation soldiers, and the Yao Yi phalanx behind them was also surrounded by the Mongolian annihilation cavalry, which was compressed and continuously reduced.

In addition, the third party formation on the left flank of the Fat Army was also broken by the hardcore Han Annihilation Cai Yurong and his son personally led the army, and the general of the Fat Army Li Kuang was seriously injured by Cai Yurong's eldest son Cai Lin, and the Qing infantry rushed into the inside of the Fat Army formation from the gap, attacking the infantry of the Fat Army inside and outside. In addition, the right wing of the fat army array, which was in charge of the whole section, was also a little unable to withstand the impact of the Qing army, and was forced to shrink inward, and the first line of the fat army formation was washed to pieces, and the second line began to be threatened.

In the face of such a fierce battle, Lu Fatzi not only remained silent at all, but also categorically rejected the requests of Wang Xu, Hu Tongchun and An Jiarong and other fierce generals to go to war, and ordered Wang Xu to continue to strictly restrain the three fat army formations next to the city gate, and Hutongchun restrained the remaining three phalanxes on the inside of the large square.

It's not that Lu Fatzi wants to keep the elite reserves and the Gao brothers and Han Daren to grab merit, the key is that there is no need for this, the fat army fights in formation, even if the Qing army breaks through and annihilates the three fat army arrays that are besieged by the key points, at least it has to pay a price of one to one, one to five, or even greater casualties, and the other phalanxes of the fat army are still strong, and they can launch a counterattack at any time to encircle the Qing army team that broke through into the big phalanx of the fat army. Lu Fatzi kept Wang Xu, Hu Tongchun and An Jiarong several elites, the purpose was very simple, that is, to prepare to meet the last elite Mites cavalry of the Qing army - if you don't kill the last 16,000 Mites cavalry of the Qing army, it will be extremely difficult to capture or hack Kang Mazi alive.

Therefore, the Qing army does not say that it is to annihilate the three fat army formations, that is, to annihilate the six fat army formations, Lu Fat Man will definitely not dispatch the three teams of Wang, Hu, and An - these most reliable elite infantry have been wiped out, what else can Lu Fat Man do to resist the full impact of the elite cavalry of the Mites Qing?

Sacrifice and hard work will always pay off, in the telescope to see the Mongolian cavalry break through the fat army's frontal third-party array blockade, into the fat army array, Kang Mazi was so happy to jump three feet high, without saying a word, he ordered the rest of the Qing cavalry to charge with all their strength to cut off the head of the fat man. Zhou Peigong, Rabu and Shang Shan and other Kang Mazi henchmen saw at a glance that Lu Fatzi was luring the enemy without a good heart, and hurriedly kowtowed desperately to stop Kang Mazi, and warned that the cavalry of the Fat Army was still watching from a distance, and at the same time the scouts found that there was still a large group of Fat Army infantry guarding in the south, and they could be put into the battlefield at any time. To put it mildly, I finally grabbed Kang Mazi.

After all, the Mongolian cavalry was seriously weakened by the three good rockets of the Fat Army, and only more than 9,000 Mongolian cavalry really rushed to the front of the Fat Army, although the Mongolian cavalry arched and rode and condescended to take advantage of the infantry of the Fat Army, but as the battle continued, the casualties increased rapidly, the huge consumption of the physical strength of soldiers and horses, and the weakness of the insufficient strength of the Mongolian cavalry was gradually exposed. No matter how experienced they are, they can only suggest that the Mengjian Taiji concentrate their remaining forces to besiege Yao Yi's phalanx, and fight as many as possible, and also inflict casualties on the fat army to the greatest extent.

Seeing that the Meng Annihilation team was tired, Lu Fatzi looked at the left flank of the army again, and found that most of the Qing infantry led by Cai Yurong had broken into the middle of the inner and outer lines of the Fat Army, so he nodded and ordered decisively: "Raise the flag, all sides of the left flank are full of dog infantry, close the door and fight the dogs!" ”

The flag was played, the left flank of the Fat Army immediately changed formation, the second and fourth phalanxes moved closer to each other, and the first and fifth phalanxes moved diagonally inward, and the inner line joined forces to encircle Cai Yurong's army on all sides, and the speed was not slow, when Cai Yurong, a hardcore man with rich experience on the battlefield, found that the situation was wrong, it was too late to break out of the encirclement, and in desperation, he had to order the team to move closer to him, and hurriedly formed a circle formation to resist the attack of the Fat Army in all directions, and at the same time sent messengers to Kang Mazi for help.

The momentum of the encirclement was almost formed in an instant, the infantry of the fat army surrounded Cai Yurong's team with knives and arrows, catching and fighting frantically, and the Qing infantry who were separated from the encirclement were mostly hardcore old men who annihilated Cai Shiying's Cao soldiers left by his son, bullying the common people and eating cards on the canal to be handy, and charging into battle was to see that the bloody legs were weak, and seeing Cai Yurong being surrounded, not only did not charge with all his strength, but retreated.

Just as a friend said, Lu Fatzi's military advisor Yao Qisheng and Kang Mazi's military advisor Zhou Peigong can indeed be regarded as chess opponents, on par, but Lu Fatzi and Kang Mazi, the two commanders of the whole army, are not just a little bit different in terms of on-the-spot command and tactical arrangements. Seeing that the offensive of the Mengjian cavalry was blocked, and he received the news that Cai Yurong's army was closed and beaten by the fat army, Kang Mazi couldn't hold his breath at all, and roared wildly: "The Qing cavalry obeys the order, and all the Qing cavalry will attack with all their might!" Target, Wu Dog Infantry Formation Front! ”

"Master! No, I can't! ”

Zhou Peigong jumped out to stop him again, but Kang Mazi directly whipped Zhou Peigong in the face on the war horse, which made Zhou Peigong's face bloom, and his handsome face was scrapped on the spot, Kang Mazi roared with red eyes: "Are you fucking eating my Yulu, or eating Lu Yifeng's dog thief?" This is our last chance to kill Lu Yifeng's dog thief, and you still came to stop it, are you afraid that I will cut Lu Yifeng's dog thief, and no one will send you silver in secret? ”

After retreating Zhou Peigong, Kang Mazi drew his sword and pointed at the front of the fat army and roared: "The Shanpu battalion and the forward battalion left to escort, Rabu and Shang Shan, you two lead all the Qing cavalry to charge!" Take down the head of Lu Yifeng's dog thief, and I will crown you Prince Heshuo! Reward the Prince's Double! Twelve East Pearls! ”

"What are you doing? If you don't obey the order, you will be beheaded immediately! ”

(To be continued)
