After Liu Guoneng saw it, he handed the telescope to Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng touched the telescope for the first time, and felt very novel, Liu Guoneng taught Lu Xiangsheng to use the telescope.

Lu Xiangsheng was completely shocked by what he saw through the binoculars. The Qing people charged the battle with Han captives! And most of them are women and children. There are people running all over the mountains, it's a death game, those who run a little slower, they are hacked to death, the only chance for these Han captives to survive is to run forward, the elderly, women, children, crying dad and mother, running forward, this face is too shocking.

Lu Xiangsheng saw Yu Xiang sitting on the ground, his face was pale, and he didn't know what to do. If the guns are fired, these women and children will bear the brunt of the victims, and if they do not open fire, once they get closer, thousands of people will rush into battle, the scene will get out of control, and the Qing soldiers will take the opportunity to get closer, and the new guards rely on artillery and fire. The advantage of the guns was lost, and they fought hand-to-hand with the Qing soldiers, and they had a disadvantage in terms of troops, and the New Guard was in danger of being completely annihilated.

Time was urgent, and Yu Xiang couldn't allow more hesitation and thinking, Yu Xiang stood up and immediately ordered that as long as the Qing cavalry entered the range of the Tiger Squat Cannon, it would immediately open fire.

Xiahou Shangyuan led the Wulin Aid Corps and Zhuge Shanzhen led the Special Purpose Corps to meet them, guiding the refugees to both sides to avoid charging head-on.

As soon as Yuxiang gave the order, Yang Yanlin took the initiative to ask for battle, and wanted to take the remnants of Lu Xiangsheng's remaining hundreds of people to guide him.

Yu Xiang looked at these old and sick people, because they hadn't eaten a full meal for several days, they were shaking when they walked, shook their heads and said: "No need, there are still hard accounts to fight in the back, everyone rest first." ”

Zhuge Shanzhen and Xiahou Shangyuan took these people like sharp knives, inserted into the oncoming crowd, and while they ran ahead, they shouted in unison: "Run to both sides!" Run in both directions! ”

The new guards on the position shouted in unison at the same time: "Run to both sides, run to both sides!" ”

There were no horns in those days, and this earth-shattering shout became an artificial horn. On both sides of the New Guard, give way to escape routes.

Zhuge Shanzhen, who was running among the refugees, was shocked by the scene in front of him, a team of thousands of refugees, what kind of situation was it, many children, running barefoot, if they accidentally fell, they would be trampled to death by the people who came up from behind. How can a child outrun an adult, yes, many children are trampled to death, a child's mother saw the child being trampled, she threw herself on the child's body, trying to protect the child, but she was quickly trampled to death by the crowd that came up from behind.

Those Qing soldiers and executioners who were armed with broadswords and mixed with the refugees were inhumane, and those who stood in the way in front of them, or those who ran slowly, would raise their knives and kill those in front mercilessly.

In the face of the rolling flow of people, the scene coming from the opposite side like a torrent is really shocking.

The team led by Zhuge Shanzhen and Xiahou Shangyuan is highly skilled in martial arts, and they want to minimize collisions and contacts with the refugees, but what is very fatal is that there are still many Han troops among the refugees who surrendered to the Qing soldiers, and these Han generals coldly stretched out their bayonets, and many soldiers were stabbed to death by these Han generals.

Yu Xiang saw this situation in the telescope, and cold sweat broke out intensively on his face, the two teams led by Zhuge Shanzhen and Xiahou Shangyuan were the elite of the New Guard, and they were suffering great sacrifices.

Yuxiang ordered Liu Xiangzhong to lead another stormtrooper, forcing the refugees to divert to both sides, changing the slogan he shouted, and shouting in unison: "Kill the Qing soldiers!" ”

"Kill the Qing soldiers!"

The sound of killing Qing soldiers sounded all over the mountains!

When the refugees heard this, many of them simply stopped running and snatched the knives from the hands of the Qing soldiers with their bare hands. Although none of them were opponents of the Qing soldiers, they greatly slowed down the pace of advancement, and some of the Qing soldiers were pushed by the people behind and trampled to death.

Liu Xiangzhongru led the New Guards and stormed into the refugee camp. Close combat with the refugee with a knife.

Some Qing soldiers and refugees finally ran to the front of the new scarf position, the whole crowd couldn't tell the difference between the refugees and the Qing soldiers, many people snatched the weapons in the hands of the spearmen, the situation was very critical, in desperation, Yu Xiang had to order to shoot, the spearmen stabbed the people who tried to charge the battle directly to death, many refugees were crowded by the people behind, pushed, and hit the spears, and the corpses were poured in front of the new army position.

This was a great shock to the refugees who ran ahead, and many of them ran towards the escape routes on both sides. The pressure on the positions of the Forces nouvelles has eased a lot.

Liu Xiangzhong and Zhuge Shanzhen, who rushed into the refugees, completely fell into the melee of their own battles, losing their advantages, and the strength of the troops led by Liu Xiangzhong was slightly weaker, and almost all the troops were wiped out.

At this time, many Qing cavalry broke through the artillery line of the Tiger Squat Cannon and rushed towards the position of the New Guards, who were on horseback, taking advantage of the attack, against the New Scarf Special Forces Regiment and the Wulin Reinforcements.

Gui Xinshu, who was slashing the Qing soldiers among the refugees, his whole body was stained red with blood, he was extremely tired, and he had to avoid the refugees who were rushing in, and he couldn't find a gap to rest at all.

At this moment, an iron horse rushed to the front, Gui Xinshu wanted to dodge, but it was too late, so he had to come to his body and cut the stomach of a war horse with a knife, the war horse neighed, and ran wildly in pain, Gui Xinshu couldn't dodge, and was kicked out by the war horse, and just fell in front of a Qing soldier. As soon as the Qing soldiers saw that it was the new guard, they slashed with a knife, and Gui Xinshu couldn't dodge, so he had to face the sharp blade of the Qing soldiers, and with his superb martial arts, he slashed the Qing soldiers' necks with a knife, but he was also stabbed in the body.

Zhuge Shanzhen happened not far from him, and hurriedly flew over, but he was still a step late, and he was cut off by another Qing soldier. The famous martial arts hero Gui Xinshu died in this battle. Zhuge Shanzhen was extremely heartbroken, and frantically waved the big knife in his hand, killing his eyes red.

The situation in front of him is becoming more and more critical, there are more and more Qing soldiers in the back, the new guard army is drastically reduced, and Yang Yanlin led hundreds of remnants to also enter the battle.

Yu Xiang held a telescope to watch the changes in the enemy's position, and suddenly, Yu Xiang saw a man riding a tall horse, with extraordinary momentum, pointing at the battlefield, these people were four miles away from the position of the new guards, obviously, this man felt that his position was safe. Yu Xiang intuitively felt that this person must be an important figure in the Qing soldiers, because he had less contact with the Qing soldiers, he did not dare to confirm it.

He handed the telescope to Lu Xiangsheng, who looked at it carefully and said, "This person must be Yue Tuo, the commander of the right-wing army of the Qing army." ”

Yuxiang was overjoyed, and hurriedly called Zhang Youliang and asked him to see, is it sure that he can use a red-clothed cannon to strike at this distance?

Zhang Youliang looked at it in the telescope, gestured, and said: "The distance is too far, the target of a single person is too small, you can only try it, and you may not be able to succeed in one hit!" ”

Yu Xiang held Zhang Youliang's shoulder and said, "Do your best, getting rid of this person is very important to this battle, it is related to the victory or defeat of this battle, and it is related to the survival of the new guard." ”

Zhang Youliang was well aware of the arduousness of this task, he took the order, lifted the camouflage covering the red-clothed cannon, stepped forward in person, adjusted the angle, and adjusted the angle very carefully, until he was satisfied, and then ignited.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the red-clothed cannon in amazement, this cannon was obviously different from the cast iron cannon he saw, the whole body was made of pure steel, and the workmanship design was not comparable to the cast iron cannon he saw, and more importantly, the range of four miles, to achieve accurate strikes, it was simply an impossible task.

Yu Xiang's heart also mentioned in his throat, the Qing soldiers had broken through the first line of defense of the New Guards with the help of refugees, and started hand-to-hand combat with the spearmen, and the special forces and reinforcements had rushed out, and the rest of the people, under the leadership of Liu Xiangyong, Liu Xiangxin and others, resisted to the death, and the sharpshooter team led by Zhao Xiao and Zhu Yitang carried out point shooting on the enemy, so that they could barely withstand it, but if it took a long time and the Qing soldiers were endless, it would be enough.

Besides, Yue Tuo, using the refugees to rush into battle, Yu Xiang in order to protect the refugees, sent the elite to guide, in the middle of Yue Tuo's arms, Yue Tuo was very happy, felt that victory was in sight, he ignored the dissuasion of his subordinates, and wanted to go to the front line to find out.

Away from the range of the Tiger Squat Cannon, he survived, feeling that this place was absolutely safe, watching the situation on the battlefield, dispatching and directing the men, but he never expected that he would enter the range of the Red Guard's red-coated cannon.

There was a roar. The redcoat cannon spits out fire.

Yu Xiang saw a cloud of smoke rising from the place where Yue Tuo was in the telescope, and the Qing soldiers were in chaos.

Yuxiang shouted, "Good! Hit!! Hit!! Keep firing! ”

Zhang Youliang quickly commanded people to load the shells, and there was another loud bang, this time hitting the place where the enemy crowd was concentrated.

Yu Xiang was very happy, handed the telescope to Lu Xiangsheng, and ordered: "All the soldiers, prepare to countercharge." ”

Fire. The gunners got their bayonets on the ground, and the New Guard sounded the horn of the counter-charge.

I saw that the new guards were all descending from the mountain like fierce tigers and rushing towards the Qing soldiers.

At this moment, the Qing soldiers sounded the horn of retreat, the Qing soldiers retreated like a tide, and the new guards covered from behind and killed thousands of Qing soldiers.

Yuxiang accepted it when he saw it, and ordered the new guards to withdraw their troops.

Zhuge Shanzhen and Xiahou Shangyuan were relieved and sat on the ground, they couldn't stand it anymore. Mu Renqing hugged the body of his beloved disciple and cried bitterly, his two apprentices have followed him since they were children, and he has always raised them as his own sons, but now both of them are gone. The grief can be imagined.

I saw that in front of the land requisition of the New Guards, there was a layer of corpses lying there, some of them were not dead, and they were still making their last struggles, there were soldiers, women and children, and the scene was terrible.

Yu Xiang ordered to quickly clean up the battlefield and put away the corpses of the new guards and the people of the green forest for a thick burial. The refugees were gathered, and the old, weak, sick and disabled moved to the nearest county of Guangzong to temporarily seek resettlement and remove them from the battlefield. Some of the refugees who still had the strength helped to escort the wounded soldiers in the direction of Jize County. Because the number of dead and wounded was too large, there was simply not enough manpower, and because they were afraid that the Qing troops would pursue them from behind, the new guards with combat effectiveness had to hold their positions.

Just when Yuxiang was worried about the lack of manpower, at this time, many people came running from all directions, I don't know who spread the news of the lack of manpower of the new guards, and the people who were hiding ran out of their hiding places one after another, leading horses, driving cattle, helping the new guards transport the bodies of the wounded and the dead in battle.

These people know that the war is not over yet, and danger may come at any time, but regardless of personal gains and losses, they stand up when the nation is in danger, and their patriotic enthusiasm is many times stronger than those adults who are full of benevolence and morality in the court. They spared no expense of their precious lives and used their practical actions to show their love for their homeland and their hatred for the invaders.

Yuxiang's state of mind at this moment has been very touched, those ministers above the court, know that these ordinary people who are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, can feed them and guard their safety, who will be loyal to them, who will love them, and then look at the women and children in different situations in front of the position, what are their sins, and they have to suffer from such a war.

Thinking about it, Yuxiang's tears couldn't help but burst into tears. Lu Xiangsheng next to him was very surprised when he saw his eyes, he couldn't guess who this young iron-blooded general was crying for.
