The weather by the river is very humid, and the temperature difference between day and night is very large, and the dry leaves above the deciduous layer are very dry, but the stumps and rotten leaves below are damp and muddy, and many of them have merged with the soil.

Soon, the fire gradually subsided, but the smoke grew louder.

The original north wind also began to be irregular, 'whirring' and crashing, mixed with the billowing smoke, the whole heaven and earth, chaos, it was impossible to open people's eyes.

The horses of the Houjin army were greatly frightened, constantly wailing and neighing, and some of them had run back uncontrollably, trying to escape from this hellish scene.

"Master, I can't be entangled with these bright dogs anymore! This smoke can kill a person! A leader coughed again and again, choked on tears, and pleaded with Qima on the side.

Zima was also uncomfortable at this time, the billowing smoke had begun to wrap the entire battle array with white flags, he couldn't open his eyes, even if he was close, he couldn't distinguish the surrounding situation.

Especially the follow-up reinforcements of the Ming army continue to pour in, and no matter how much he consumes here, it will not have much effect.

On the contrary, if Li Yuanqing is caught, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Ahead, the Ming army's 'bang bang' bird guns were still continuous, the fire was surging, and his cavalry had no speed and could not break through the barrier of the Ming army's firepower network at all.

"Li Yuanqing of the dog day, one day, Lao Tzu will eat your flesh and blood raw!"

Qima gritted his teeth and scolded, but he was choked by the smoke and coughed, and after a while, he came back to his senses and squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Withdraw!" ”

The people around him couldn't help but be overjoyed, as if they had been amnesty, and they patted their horses again and again: "The master is wise!" ”

In a moment, with the continuous roar of people, the main force of the white flag turned the horse's head and ran desperately towards the rear.

…………

At this time, in the battle formation of the Ming army, the situation was not much better.

The billowing smoke made the surrounding visibility extremely low, and even if you were two or three steps away, you couldn't see it clearly.

But whether it is Chen Zhongbu or Li Yuanqing's Changsheng Battalion, all the veterans who participated in the war at this time are elites, even if they only judge by their voices, they have already understood that the Houjin army has withdrawn.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong also quickly discovered the anomaly ahead.

Chen Zhong couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Yuanqing, the dog day has retired." ”

Li Yuanqing was also relieved, but he didn't have time to pay attention to the others, and shouted: "Pass my military order, all the troops will withdraw in an orderly manner, and retreat behind the earthen wall." ”

At this time, although the visibility was low, whether it was the Changsheng Battalion or Chen Zhong's department, they were all veteran elites, and soon, under the loud shouts of their respective commanders, they began to retreat towards the rear in an orderly manner.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were also under the cover of the two personal soldiers, and quickly retreated behind the earthen wall.

By this time, the fire had gradually stopped, but the smoke was getting worse and worse, billowing up and covering the sky, and the air was filled with an indescribable smell of wet fire, which was simply disgusting.

With the experience of facing fires many times, Li Yuanqing knows that they are all big living people, and only a few people are killed by fire, and this smoke is the biggest threat.

Once a person's respiratory tract is harassed, the consequences are unimaginable according to the medical treatment at this time.

The Houjin army could retreat, but at this time the Ming army had to defend its position.

Li Yuanqing casually ripped off half of his sleeve, wet it with water, and covered it directly on his mouth and nose, while shouting to the children around him: "Don't be stupid, hurry up and get a wet cloth to protect your mouth and nose." Fast! ”

Behind the earthen wall, because of the cover of the earthen wall, the smoke is slightly smaller.

But when Chen Zhong saw that Li Yuanqing was like this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, "Yuanqing, you, you ......"

Li Yuanqing didn't have time to ink with Chen Zhong, so he tore off half of his sleeve and hurriedly shouted, "Big brother, don't ink." Urine smells bad, but it's better than choking to death. Move fast. ”

Chen Zhong also reacted, and was busy learning from Li Yuanqing's appearance, wetting his sleeves with water, protecting his mouth and nose, and shouting loudly to the surrounding children.

Soon, the soldiers did the same, covering their mouths and noses with damp cloths, and hiding behind the earthen wall to rest.

The smoke lasted for most of the hour before it began to dissipate.

As the east wind blows on the river, the air gradually begins to freshen.

Li Yuanqing threw aside his torn sleeves and stared at Zhenjiang City, which was gradually revealing its outline, his face gloomy.

Throughout the ages, the tycoons who capsized in the gutter simply don't know how many.

In ordinary times, Li Yuanqing will take it as a warning.

But today, just a little carelessness almost made a big mistake.

Li Yuanqing was also a little lucky, fortunately the sky was beautiful today, and the north wind did not last forever, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chen Zhong also relieved himself at this time, and greedily took a big gulp of fresh air, for a long time, and then he was extremely unhappy: "Yuanqing, this is fucking!" When Lao Tzu broke through Zhenjiang City, he had to throw Du Du's dog offal into the dung pit and soak it for a month! No, at least for a year, Fang Jie's hatred in Lao Tzu's heart! ”

Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity and patted his cheek vigorously, "Big brother." It's hard to make sure Du Du won't react later. We're going to have to step up. Cow root liter! ”

"Humble duty!" Niu Gensheng was also embarrassed at this time, his face was full of black ash, and he hurriedly ran in front of Li Yuanqing.

"Go to the flotilla and pull the artillery first! You go in person! ”

"Yes!" Niu Gensheng hurriedly left with a few people.

Li Yuanqing waved his hand again and beckoned Huang Guoshan and Kong Youde, "A few of you, regardless of the soldiers or auxiliaries, immediately work with the sappers to dig the trench deep and pile up the earthen wall." ”

"Yes!" The two didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly commanded the sons and daughters to go to work.

Chen Zhong also hurriedly ordered Chen Changyou to take people to work.

Soon, the fortifications on this side of the earthen wall were rapidly restarted.

…………

At this time, on the head of Zhenjiang City, the thick smoke dissipated, and Du Du and his followers were also able to see the movement of the Ming army's battle formation.

Qima and Buyantu also came to Du Du's side, the two had just washed their faces and changed their clothes, Qi Ma hurriedly knelt down respectfully in front of Du Du, "Master, the slave is useless, and he has not fulfilled the master's request." I beg my lord to punish him. ”

Buyantu also hurriedly knelt down, but unfortunately, he was just a Mongolian miscellaneous servant, at this time, Du Du's face was so gloomy, he didn't dare to speak at all.

Fortunately, with the first lesson, the Buyantu headquarters did not rush over when setting the fire, and there was no loss.

Seeing that the earthen walls of the Ming army's battle formation in the distance ahead were piled higher and higher, the trenches were dug deeper and deeper, and follow-up reinforcements continued to pour in, Du Du's face was gloomy.

At this point, he also realized that he had made a serious mistake.

Just now, it was a great time, but unfortunately, he was indecisive and wasted it lightly!

Seeing that Du Du didn't speak for a long time, Qi Ma didn't dare to breathe, and quietly waited for his master's response.

Next to him, a henchman of Du Du hurriedly said: "Master, at this time, it is not a bad thing." We at least blocked the speed at which Li Yuanqing set up camp. Li Yuanqing is powerful, let's not act rashly, let's ask the eighth master for help as soon as possible. ”

Du Du let out a long breath of turbidity, and actually looked at the battle formation of the Ming army not far away.

As the saying goes, 'eat a trench, grow a wisdom'.

After fighting Li Yuanqing several times in a row, Du Du has also grown a lot.

At this time, he suddenly found that he was not without a chance to defeat Li Yuanqing, but at the most critical juncture, his side was always a little lacking in heat.

After a moment, Du Du nodded calmly, "Qima, Buyantu, the two of you have contributed a lot in this battle, and I will truthfully show the Great Khan your merits." Someone is coming, pass on my military order, and quickly ask for help from Uiju! ”

"Wow!"

…………

The time was soon approaching evening, and the Ming army's trenches and earthen walls had stretched for five or six miles, completely enveloping the wide area in front of the woods.

At the middle nodes, several huge mounds of earth were piled up, and twenty guns had begun to be erected on them.

Behind him, as more and more auxiliaries joined, they began to cut down the woods and clear the ground of fallen leaves.

Li Yuanqing, on his side, also breathed a sigh of relief.

By now, he also realized that he was still too anxious for this landing.

The best way is to take advantage of the fact that the river is not frozen at this time, and move forward steadily and steadily.

After all, Li Yuanqing did not have a mandatory combat mission on this trip, and his main task was to do a good job of this 'nail' and stabilize the defense.

The most important thing is that although the Ming army has the advantage of the fleet, on land, compared with the Houjin army, it is still far behind.

Fortunately, Li Yuanqing and his sons withstood the most critical wave and pulled everything back on track.

These woods, the small ones have to be half a person thick, and the tall ones can be more than ten meters, mainly poplars and pines.

As there were more and more auxiliaries, the speed of cutting became faster and faster, and the space behind the earthen wall was quickly relaxed.

Chen Zhong had already washed his face and changed his clothes, Zhang Pan also rushed over, and seeing Li Yuanqing's embarrassed appearance, Zhang Pan couldn't help but smile, and said with a busy smile: "Yuanqing, just now, I really sweated for you." ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Brother Zhang, I was also taken aback. Thankfully, God forbid. ”

Zhang Pan was stunned for a moment, and instantly reacted, and couldn't help laughing, "Yuanqing, brother, I really admire your courage!" If it were me, I wouldn't dare do that! ”

Chen Zhong also smiled: "I was also frightened by Yuanqing at that time. But now that I think about it, if it weren't for Yuanqing's quick decision, we would have been in big trouble~ ! How do you say that? By the way, wealth is only sought in danger! Now that we have taken root, I want to see what other means Du Du has for this little child. ”

The situation was on the right track, and all three laughed.

After laughing for a while, the atmosphere gradually relaxed a lot, but Li Yuanqing's expression became solemn, "Two big brothers, this forest can't be cleaned up for a while, and our crisis has not been completely lifted for a while." At this time, the weather is dry and dry, fire prevention is the top priority, tonight, we don't want to rest. ”

Chen Zhong hurriedly smiled: "Ahem." Yuanqing, don't worry! My brother is in good spirits today. I can't sleep even if I want to! ”

Looking at the two heroic faces of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong in front of him, Zhang Pan seemed to suddenly grasp something, and he finally understood a little, they were originally on the same starting line, why would he pull down such a big gap with Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong.

Hurriedly smiled: "Yuan Qing, Lao Chen, I haven't had such a strong fighting spirit for a long time!" Tonight, let's do it! ”
