The next morning, the area outside the city of Ruzhou suddenly became noisy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It turned out that Chen Yongfu's forward battalion took the initiative to take it by surprise and dispatched all its cavalry, and Li Zilong also arranged for the cavalry of the Zhu family army to be used as a flank to support back and forth.

Nearly 20,000 or 30,000 troops were dispatched, and the two sides lined up.

The layout of the army is still the same, the hungry soldiers are outside, then the foot soldiers, then the horse army, then the horse, and finally the old battalion.

In addition to Chen Yongfu's soldiers and horses, the rest of the sergeants were poorly equipped, but their morale was good, and it was estimated that this was one of the reasons why they dared to fight.

Of course, the thieves on the other side were even worse prepared.

There are very few people holding large knives, most of them are with wooden sticks, and many people are even bare-handed.

Well, such combat effectiveness can be imagined.

"Kill!"

With Chen Yongfu's order, his army began to charge.

Soon, the two sides first exchanged bows and arrows and three-eyed guns, and then fought with broadswords and spears, and the killings were inseparable.

The difference between officers and soldiers and rogues was evident at this time.

Don't look at the vanguard of the thieves, there are nearly 10,000 people, but under the attack of these two or three thousand officers and soldiers, they are still defeated one after another, and they are defeated on both sides or behind the formation. However, there are a large number of hungry troops in the invasion army, and there are enough cannon fodder to consume, and the number is extremely advantageous.

Seeing the battlefield situation, Chen Yongfu said to Jiang Hai: "General, the enemy on the left side will have the Labor and Gui Department." ”

Jiang Hai responded with a smile and smiled.

In the next minute, he led his cavalry and rushed towards the "horse team" that rushed from both sides. Intercept the operation!

The horses of the Zhu family army were well-equipped, and the momentum that swept was unstoppable. How dare the horse teams that broke into the army collide directly, and they all formed a chaotic formation, or separated.

This time the tentative battle between the two sides ended with the victory of the Ming army.

Chen Yongfu's son, Chen De, repelled the enemy's horse team, came back covered in blood, and captured a banner. He arched his hand and said, "Father, the child is fortunate to have survived his life and returned victorious." Kill about 1,000 enemies! ”

Chen Yongfu was very relieved and looked at his son and nodded again and again. He lost his wife in middle age, only had an only son, and he was a mother and a father, and he loved his son very much in his heart. And his son is also angry, not a flower in a greenhouse, he has the future demeanor of a general, so he has always been very proud of it.

Li Zilong and others were also on the side, and said: "The tiger father has no dogs, and the Chen De brothers are really good." ”

Chen Yongfu was overjoyed in his heart, but he said politely: "Don't praise the general too much, the dog has a long way to go, and it is still a long way." ”

In this battle, Chen Yongfu's subordinates suffered more than 500 casualties, so strictly speaking, it was not a big victory.

When the news of the small victory of the officers and soldiers came back to Ruzhou City, the soldiers and civilians were extremely excited, and the sound of firecrackers in the city rushed into the sky. Zhizhou Qian Zuozheng personally led some squires to the front line to reward the soldiers, and said that he would report to the court for the generals, and everyone was happy.

The next day, Chen Yongfu, who had greatly increased his confidence, led the forward battalion with great enthusiasm to fight, and Jiang Hai still led the cavalry to guard the two wings.

In the words of Zhu Zilong's previous education of his younger brothers, military merit is important, but preserving strength when necessary is also the top priority.

Obviously, Li Zilong kept this in mind.

That's why I don't fight for merit and play with Chen Yongfu. After all, if it weren't for the immaculate, Zhu Jiajun wouldn't be willing to come to support this time!

"The strongest of the thieves are their old battalions and horse teams, these backbones are not lost, and the thieves can easily gather tens of thousands of troops. Today, the focus is on attacking their cavalry, even if it is deep behind enemy lines, as long as their cavalry suffers heavy losses, the battle of Ruzhou can be a great victory. ”

Immediately charged, Li Yongfu said confidently to his son.

I have to say that Lao Chen's determination is very great, and he is also eager to make meritorious contributions. It's just that this is a huge project, involving a large number of enemy soldiers and horses, and that area is located in the rear camp of the breaking army, and most of the men and horses are advancing, which is easy for people to surround it.

As expected, when Lao Chen's army rushed to the rear of the Liujun, Gao Yingxiang was completely furious.

You must know that when they broke into the army spontaneously, they fought against the Ming army in the past, and they won more than they lost. The Zhu family's army is just that, and now even Kaifeng's army is pretending to be compared to it?

is still deep behind enemy lines, not afraid of encirclement, is it really impossible to break into the old camp of the army?

The clay people are still a little angry, not to mention the cannon fodder people, there are more than 100,000 people here.

Originally, Gao Yingxiang's idea was to pretend to defeat the enemy after a few battles, and gradually retreat to the rear, so that the Ming army's battle line would be lengthened. A few more rounds of horse pistols can kill the officers and soldiers who are entangled in the battle and defeat them every time. But these two days of fighting, that's it!

However, now, Chen Yongfu is really too slap in the face.

So, soon, under the command of Gao Yingxiang, the Chen family's army was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

"Kill the officers and soldiers!" "Kill the officers and soldiers!"

Countless hungry soldiers with yellow faces and thin muscles and red scarves on their heads feverishly raised their spears and rushed over.

If there are too many ants, they can bite the elephant to death, Chen Yongfu looked bitter on the spot, he was too confident, and he became arrogant. At the critical moment of the crisis, he looked to the rear.

Sure enough, Li Zilong will not let him down.

"Test the gun."

Zhu Jiajun did not arrange a large group of people to rush over, because there were too many thieves over there, and hand-to-hand combat was purely a brain-dead act.

More than 100,000 people, it seems that it can only be bombarded with artillery. It's just a mistake or something, hehe, with the proportion of Chen Jiajun, it is only one in ten possible ****. I can't say that there is no such thing as nothing, but I don't take this risk, and if I want to rescue it, I really can't do it.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

"Put"!

Under the cover of the infantry phalanx, the artillery of the Zhu family army could have fought about five miles away, but now it has even pushed out of the city.

In the deafening sound of cannons, one after another round iron balls weighing five catties smashed viciously into the formation. Full flood!

Immediately, on the side of the thieves, the tidal wave of cheers stopped abruptly.

Don't look at the fact that they have won many Ming troops, but in the past few years, they have really not looked for a decent Daming artillery team a few times.

Some counties have a few cannons, and some counties may not have one.

If the cannon is not an editor, the power cannot be shown at all, not to mention the person who uses him, which is also the top priority.

I saw that every shell landing was the beginning of a disaster. It can easily take the heads of one or two people, the arms of two or three people, and the thighs and calves of many people, opening a bloody path. Let the picture be miserable!

Dozens of shells, hit like this, isn't it a human tragedy?

Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng's faces changed greatly: "There is artillery in the Ming army, can you still fight so far?" And so many? Why? ”

Before they came to their senses, the second round of the Zhu family's artillery team opened fire.

The whistling sound of cannonballs sounded, and more than 50 large and small iron balls came again to cover their heads. One by one, they landed in the array of hungry soldiers, smashing and rolling around.

Only on the spot, in the army of thieves, hundreds of people were killed and wounded, after all, there were too many people here, and their positions were also dense, and there was nowhere to run if they wanted to.

For a while, there was a commotion among the hungry soldiers, and many of them were running around like headless flies, and their morale was completely lost.

Unlike slashing with swords, the miserable appearance of the cannon hitting is too terrifying, and the sound is like thunder in the sky.

This made the homeless people, who had never seen the sound of a cannon, really frightened in their hearts, and naturally their morale collapsed quickly.

Because, people are naturally very afraid of the unknown.
