The tide of routs came from the east, and the five thousand green battalion soldiers and horses sent by Tan Tai to plug the leak on the left flank collapsed in less than half an hour. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn the southeast direction of Tan Tai's Chinese army, more than 1,000 soldiers and horses with yellow flags who were originally sent to support Nanshan Village encountered the Gangfeng battalion on the way, and the crooked attack landed on the ground to prevent the Gangfeng battalion from attacking Tan Tai's central army. However, the hastily arranged defensive line with yellow flags is currently crumbling under the impact of the steel front battalion, and it is probably a matter of time before this direction is broken through. On the front line of Xugang Village directly south, the Second Brigade of Huguang Town was also making an all-out assault on the Qing army's defense line opposite. The middle and right flank of the entire Huguang Town were like opening a large net running northeast and southwest, quickly heading towards Tan Tai's Chinese army.

At this time, the main force of the right wing of the Qing army was still not recovered, and the Zhenglan Banner on the left flank and the soldiers and horses of the Shanxi Green Battalion were trapped near Nanshan Village after suffering a heavy blow, and the only soldiers and horses that Tan Tai could still use were the soldiers and horses of the Zhenghuang Banner and the remaining more than 1,500 foot soldiers of the Green Battalion Denglai Town, totaling more than 4,000 people. But this little force may not be enough to stop the rout that is sweeping from the east and the rout that is about to come from the southeast.

Tan Tai looked at the scene in front of him in despair. How he and the tens of thousands of troops under his command got to this point, he didn't even have time to think about it, and only one voice was hovering repeatedly in his head: how is this possible, how is this possible......

Tunbai next to him was full of anxiety: "General......"

"Say no more!" Before he could finish speaking, Tan Tai broke off with a shout, "All the soldiers and horses of the Chinese army will go with me to block the Huguang Town infantry camp!" As long as we can hold out until the right flank is withdrawn, our army will not be defeated! No defeat! ”

At this time, a Tang horse with a yellow flag in the southeast hurried to the Chinese army: "General, Magushan...... Ma Gushan said that he couldn't stop it, he would hold on for another quarter of an hour at most, and ask the general to retreat north immediately! Otherwise, another infantry battalion in Huguang Town would have come from the southeast, and it would have been too late! ”

Tan Tai suddenly felt a surge of qi and blood rushing to the top of his head, sitting on the back of the horse and staggering, almost falling down. He thought that everything was under his control, just like all the big and small battles he had experienced in the past years, no matter how bumpy the process, the final victory would always be the invincible Eight Banners. But now the cruel reality in front of him is ruthlessly reminding him that he lost, lost everything, and lost cleanly.

Enduring the headache, he braced himself on horseback, and the shouts of killing on the battlefield made countless scenes over the years flash through his mind again. At this moment, he remembered that many years ago, he won the first battle and was personally invited by the old slave with the meritorious people. He remembered that year he followed the king of Wuying County, Azig Vaming, Lianke Yanqing and other twelve cities, and fought three camps, the heavens and the earth were moved, and the wind and clouds changed color. Chasing tens of thousands of Ming troops is like driving pigs and sheep, how high-spirited; He remembered the Battle of Songjin that year, when he personally led 400 armor soldiers from the Xiaoling River to the seashore to cut off the return route of the Ming army, so that his entire army was wiped out and Hong Chengchou was captured......

However, the glory of the past is far away from him, and now he is a complete failure. The price of defeat is so tragic, not only will he lose everything he has, but the tens of thousands of troops under his command will probably be buried together.

"General!" Ilde came over and grabbed the reins of Tan Tai's mount and said loudly, "The soldiers and horses of Huguang Town in the south and southeast will not be able to beat for a while and a half!" I took the infantry armor in the banner and the infantry in Denglai Town to the east to block first, and you took the horse armor in the banner to the right flank to meet with He Luohui Gushan, how much can you withdraw! I have the world in the Qing Dynasty, even if Pang Yue wins this game, he won't be able to turn the sky over, and we will have more opportunities to take revenge in the future! ”

As he spoke, Ilde pulled the reins east with all his might, and before he could pull them twice, he snatched the reins out of his hand with a strong force. When Ilde looked up, he saw that Tan Tai's face was no longer filled with despair and fatigue, replaced by incomparable firmness and determination.

"I, Shu Mulu Tan Tai, am the Yellow Banner Manchurian Gushan Ezhen, the general of the imperial court's order to conquer the south! It is difficult to escape the blame for the defeat in this battle, and there is no reason to leave the army and escape first! And since Lao Khan started the army, I, the Eight Banners, have never had the habit of leaving my back to Nikan! Not today! Tan Tai's voice was no longer manic and excited, and it was calm and unprecedentedly firm, "All the soldiers and horses of the Chinese army, follow me to meet the Huguang Town Infantry Battalion in the east!" Only by breaking through their line and dragging them westward can the center and right flank withdraw more men! ”

"General!" Both Dumber and Ilde were in a hurry.

"Needless to say! If it can be stopped, our army still has a glimmer of life. If we can't stop it, we don't need to run for our lives, we all die there! In addition, he sent someone to tell He Luohui that if the middle lane was completely defeated, let him retreat north immediately with the right wing of troops and horses. As long as we can keep more seeds for each banner, even if we die, we won't be worth a penny. ”

……

"Handsome! Tan Tai's Chinese army moved, and most of them went to the east, it should be to resist the trapped camp, and Tan Tai's Daxu was also among them! "The Central Military Headquarters of Huguang Town, which has arrived in the middle of the road, Zhang Yunli couldn't hold back his excitement and reminded Pang Yue.

"All or nothing! Hero ......" Pang Yue originally subconsciously wanted to talk about the twilight of the hero, but when the words came to his lips, he felt inappropriate, and smiled to himself, "Oh, no, what kind of hero is he?" The thugs of a gang of robbers, like the old slaves and all the Tartars, belong to the dregs of the times. While the Han people are weak, they may be able to do it for a while, but as long as the Han people wake up, these scum will be ruthlessly beaten back to their original shape. There are no tigers in the mountains, the monkey is the king, and it is time for this monkey to jump up and down. ”

......

A large field of cavalry in yellow cotton armor and peaked helmets rushed in front of them, and the ground shook with a bang. The roaring cavalry crowd smashed some of the routers who had no time to dodge along the edge of the Green Battalion's rout, and then rushed to the front of the queue of the 1,000th Brigade of the Camp.

Ding Liehu, who was covered in blood, roared loudly, and with a spear in hand, he was about to chase after a yellow flag war horse that ran past him. After the long-distance charge just now, the formation of the first four rounds of the 1,000th Brigade was already a little loose, and it suffered a lot of losses after suddenly encountering the counterattack of Tan Tai's Chinese army. However, the officers and men of the 1,000th Corps, which had been scattered, immediately formed a battle group as a unit and continued to persist in the battle in many tight small circles, like rocks standing firm in the torrent.

Jiang Yidou, who succeeded Chen Blind as the commander and leader of the battle team, grabbed the crazy Ding Liehu, kicked him back into the small circle formation, and ordered all the soldiers in the battle loudly: "The killer team is in front with spears and boring palladium, and the fire team is behind, and wait for the order to fire a salvo after loading!" ”

Ding Liehu calmed down a little after being kicked, gasped for breath and stood up, holding a spear and standing in the queue of the killer team. Jiang Yidou glanced at him and continued: "Don't worry about the back, there are brothers from the Second Cavalry Battalion in the back, as well as the horizontal formation of the two thousand corps of our battalion, even if these Tartar cavalry rush over, they will be dead!" ”

After the first wave of cavalry with the yellow flag roared by, the second wave followed. Several Yellow Banner cavalry swept past the small circular array where Ding Liehu was, and a few light arrows and iron bones came with the sound of the wind. Ding Liehu's right side of his face was cut by an arrow, a soldier on the right side was hit in the chest by an iron bone and fell screaming, and two people were hit by arrows, and the injured were dragged into the inner circle by the soldiers in the back row. After a volley of flintlock pistols, one cavalryman fell off his horse with a shout, and the other man was shot and crumbled on horseback, barely keeping the horse's neck and following the queue, but he basically lost his combat effectiveness, and most of the people waiting for him behind him were dead.

The other battle groups also stubbornly continued to fight, and the Yellow Banner cavalry roared past in waves, with casualties on both sides. The cavalry was followed by the heavy armored melee soldiers of the Yellow Banner and the foot soldiers of the Green Battalion Denglai Town, and most of the Green Battalion soldiers at this time had become frightened birds, and only the armored soldiers of the Yellow Banner still had fighting spirit. The rushing armor soldiers collided with the 1,000th Corps, which had formed multiple battle groups, and fought bloody and brutal in hand-to-hand combat.

The formation of the Yellow Banner cavalry passing through the front of the 1,000th Brigade was already somewhat scattered, and before they could regroup, they collided head-on with another wave of routers. This wave of rout was the cavalry of the Green Battalion, and the 2000th Brigade of the 2nd Cavalry Battalion defeated them in only two rounds. The Zhejiang Raising Cavalry, whose formation and psychological defense line had completely collapsed, gave up the resistance of the formation and desperately beat their horses and fled westward, even if the formation of the masters of the Zhenghuang Banner was disrupted.

Ilder, who personally led the cavalry into battle, roared angrily, and ordered to kill all the routs who dared to charge into battle, to no avail. Then, he saw a Huguang Town's spears coming up in a horizontal formation, and a Huguang Town's cavalry was bypassing his left flank and rushing straight towards Tan Tai's Daxu. At this moment, his eyes were full of despair......

The battle continues, but it is becoming less and less suspenseful.

......

Under the weaving golden dragon, Tan Tai was also completely desperate. His desperate counterattack was like a wave crashing on a rock, only splashing a series of water, but not shaking the big picture at all.

Immediately afterwards, the cheers from the southeast and south also came like a tidal wave, and this cheer obviously did not belong to the Qing army. The panicked howls of thousands of people shook the earth, and the routs in these two directions also swept in.

Tan Tai was still sitting on his horse, as if none of this had anything to do with him.

"General! The horsemen from Huguang Town are coming! Head north! If you don't leave, it's too late! The leader of Goshha came over with a few Goshkha stickers and shouted anxiously.

"Get out of here!" Tan Tai suddenly burst into a shout, and raised his knife to slash. The leader of the Goshkha leaned over and grabbed the knife, and the other Goshha took his horse by the head and fled north without saying a word. A dozen or so Goshha guarded him, and gathered up about twenty yellow flag vests nearby. In order to avoid becoming the focus of the attack on Huguang Town, even Daxu was gone, and the group fled north in a hurry.

Soon after, thousands of routs swept in, and Tan Tai's Gushan Ezhen Longxu and Zhengnan General Zhiqi, who had stayed in place, were quickly swept down and disappeared without a trace. Following the left flank, the middle of the Qing army also completely collapsed.
