Xu Dingguo was stunned as the tent of the Ming military camp exploded not far in front of him, countless flesh and blood splashed along with the fire, and with a chirp, something fell from the sky and fell in front of Xu Dingguo, looking down at it, it was a bloody broken arm.

Almost no one of the dozens of green battalion soldiers who followed Liu Zhong into the camp escaped alive, and even the hundreds of green battalion soldiers near the camp were blown away.

Before Xu Dingguo could think about it, a series of explosions sounded in the Ming army's camp, hundreds of camp tents exploded one after another, and countless fires ignited in the entire camp. The green battalion soldiers were bombed and cried wolves, and their corpses were strewn all over the ground.

Xu Dingguo looked up in horror, and saw a fire like a meteor shower coming from the north and instantly falling in the camp.

Flying Dragon! Xu Dingguo suddenly guessed the name of the firearm used by the Ming army, and at this time he didn't know where he was ambushed.

Countless rockets flew into the camp, planted in tents, planted in haystacks, and the flames burned everywhere, and the whole camp was burned into flames.

"There is an ambush, retreat!" Xu Dingguo shouted, turned around and ran, in fact, he didn't need to prompt at all, the green battalion soldiers who entered the camp were already in chaos, and the explosions that sounded one after another and the flames that lit up all over the camp had already frightened them, and they cried and shouted one by one and fled out, but there were fires everywhere, and the sky was still a little dark, and many people were panicked and didn't know where to flee, and they were scurrying around in the camp.

Countless green battalion soldiers' shirts were set on fire, and they were screaming and rolling on the ground with flames.

Billowing smoke ignited, enveloping the entire battalion, choking people to cough continuously, and many green battalion soldiers crawled on the ground and coughed violently, almost coughing out their internal organs.

The Ming army actually took the poisonous smoke! Xu Dingguo was shocked, covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and retreated in a hurry outside the camp under the escort of more than 100 personal soldiers.

Arrows came from outside the camp like locusts, and it was the despicable Ming army sneaking up in the dark, and muskets rang out one after another, each of which took a life.

The 20,000 Green Battalion soldiers who stormed the camp were completely in chaos, some were killed by gunpowder, some were ignited by flying flames, and many more were so breathless from the poisonous smoke containing toxins that they rolled on the ground in pain.

"It's so awesome, I didn't expect this poisonous weed to be so easy to use!" Chen Mingyang, the battalion leader, stood beside Li Yanzhi, looking at the tragic situation of the green battalion soldiers in the big camp in the distance, and his heart was full of joy and praise.

Since receiving the information of the Qing army yesterday evening, Li Yanzhi analyzed and judged that the Qing army must be preparing to attack his own side, so he decided to lay a trap for the Qing army.

In the early summer, the weather was already slightly hot, so there was naturally no need to build such a regular and strict camp when camping, Li Yanzhi just did this, and after setting up the camp, he ordered the people to cut down and collect a large amount of dry firewood and thatch, and pile it in the camp. When retreating from Yangzhou this time, all the materials in Yangzhou's arsenal were removed, including thousands of stone gunpowder. So Ren Siqi used this gunpowder to lay a trap for the Qing soldiers in the camp. Thousands of catties of gunpowder were placed in the big tent of the Chinese army, and a certain amount of gunpowder was also placed in the firewood stacks of the other camp tents, and then the haystacks were watered thoroughly with fire oil.

When setting the trap, Zhang Jinghe, a famous doctor in Yangzhou who retreated with the army, suggested to Li Yanzhi that if several herbs were mixed into the firewood stack, they could emit a thick smoke when burned, which is poisonous and can suffocate people to death if inhaled for too long, and these herbs are common in the wilderness. Li Yanzhi was overjoyed, and immediately sent Zhang Jinghe to lead the excavation and collection of herbs, and then mixed into the haystack.

After the trap was arranged, Li Yanzhi sent troops to make noise in the camp and make a pretense of camping, while secretly evacuating all the people to the north bank while it was dark. More than 20 zhang wide salt river, seven or eight big boats end to end to become a pontoon bridge, at the same time to make more than a dozen pontoon bridges, the accompanying people in the Daishan army sent officials to quickly retreat to the north bank.

Then Li Yanzhi sent more than 500 veterans in the camp, just waiting for the Qing soldiers to light the fire rope when they attacked the camp, and then fled in a hurry to make the appearance of a riot in the whole camp to lure the enemy into taking the bait. And Li Yanzhi personally led all the soldiers to ambush outside the camp, waiting to deal a heavy blow to the Qing soldiers who sneaked attack.

Now the Qing army has finally been fooled! The soldiers of the Daishan Army were all overjoyed, and muskets, bows and arrows rained down into the camp, wantonly attacking the panicked green battalion soldiers.

"Oh my God!" Turai and Ahsan looked at the Ming army camp that suddenly exploded and ignited a raging fire, and looked at each other, and the same horror could be seen in each other's eyes!

Fortunately, Lao Tzu had a lot of eyes and sent the cannon fodder of the green battalion soldiers in first! Thurai was secretly glad in his heart.

If these green battalion soldiers die, they will die, and now that the Eight Banners warriors are safe and sound, then it is the death period of the despicable Ming army! By the direction of the rocket musket attack, Tulay could tell that the Ming army was to the west of the camp.

Turai immediately ordered an immediate attack on the Ming army, which had been exposed. The two turned on their horses and led 3,000 cavalry to attack the Daishan army led by Li Yanzhi.

The iron hooves rolled, and the three thousand cavalry exuded a might, which can be described as earth-shattering. The soldiers of the Daishan Army, who were busy shooting arrows and guns into the camp, looked up in horror and saw a huge cavalry rushing from a distance. Li Yanzhi's face turned white all of a sudden.

Why didn't a Qing army enter the ambush? And it's cavalry! Li Yanzhi thought that he had calculated everything, but he didn't expect that there was still a fatal mistake. Before launching the attack, for fear of attracting the attention of the Qing army attacking the camp, Li Yanzhi did not dare to send any more sentry spies, but he did not expect that the cunning Qing army would only attack with a part of the army, and the other part would be hidden behind.

"Director Li, quickly order the formation!" Seeing that Li Yanzhi was still in a daze, Chen Mingyang on the side hurriedly reminded.

"Yes, yes, hurry up and set up!" Li Yanzhi hurriedly passed the order.

There were two battalions of infantry and a team of archers beside Li Yanzhi, the two battalions of infantry were Chen Mingyang and Sha Qianli's battalion, and that group of archers was a newly established archery battalion in Yangzhou, and more than 1,000 people who retreated with Li Yanzhi were temporarily assembled.

Most of the archers are new recruits, and they are very panicked in the face of this situation, the key is that the power of thousands of cavalry galloping is too terrifying, and the area around Taizhou is alluvial plains, which is conducive to cavalry galloping. The distance between the Eight Banners and Li Yanzhi's troops was only two or three miles, and for the galloping cavalry, it was almost instantaneous.

Compared with the newly recruited recruits, the veterans of the two battalions can be described as well-trained, although the Qing cavalry galloping at high speed can be instantaneous, they still endure the fear in their hearts and quickly arrange a phalanx facing the enemy.

The pikemen were arranged in four rows, their sharp spears pointed diagonally at the galloping enemy. More than 500 musketeers were distributed on both sides of the phalanx, and the muzzles of the black holes were aimed at the front. A fierce battle between cavalry and infantry was on the verge of breaking out......
