At a distance of a hundred paces from the camp wall, all the soldiers stopped, and this place was just outside the range of the torches on the camp wall, and it was easy to attract the attention of the soldiers in the camp any further. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This place is very close to the Qing army camp, and when you look at it, you can see a continuous camp in front of you, and you can't see the end at a glance, and the Qing soldiers inside are afraid that there are not as many as 100,000!

There were lit torches at intervals near the fence camp wall, and Qing soldiers were on duty near the torches. Looking into the camp, most of the place was pitch black, with occasional lights flickering, and there should still be some people who had not slept. If you listen closely, you can hear the sobs of women and the roars of men faintly heard in the silence.

In Ren Siqi's view, the precautions of this battalion are extremely lax, but if you think about it, you can understand that the continuous victories have made the Qing soldiers very proud, and in the hearts of most Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers, the idea of the invincibility of the Eight Banners has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Only then did the Qing soldiers just arrive in Sizhou, with the Huai River natural hazards, and dozens of red-coated cannons for defense, but the defender Li Yuchun didn't even have the courage to fight, and immediately surrendered. Only then did the Qing army set out on 5 April and arrived in Sizhou in only eight days, and the Ming troops along the way all fled in despair.

The continuous victory without a fight, and the Ming army's fleeing from the wind, made the Qing soldiers completely see the reality of the so-called four towns in Jiangbei, and also made them arrogant, and they never thought that the Ming army would dare to confront them head-on, let alone take the initiative.

You will pay for your arrogance! Ren Siqi said secretly in his heart, waved his hand and asked Chen Ping to go to the camp wall to investigate clearly, if it was possible, Ren Siqi would wave his army into the camp and turn the world upside down.

Chen Ping quietly crawled to the side of the camp wall alone, after all, the light was too dim to see the specific movements of the Qing soldiers' camp. Then Ren Siqi gave a low order, ordering his subordinates to prepare firearms for the attack. The soldiers put the firearms they had worked so hard to carry on the ground, spread them out, and aimed at the Qing army camp in front.

This time, the Daishan army brought two kinds of firearms for attacking the camp, one was the Flying Dragon, that is, cluster rockets, a total of 100 units, each containing 100 rockets, when ignited, a hundred arrows were fired at once, and they attacked the Qing army camp.

Another type of firearm is the Divine Fire Crow, which contains a large amount of gunpowder and explodes when the rocket flies into the camp, and is specially used to kill and injure enemy troops and burn enemy barracks. This kind of Divine Fire Flying Crow brought more than 300 of them. With Ren Siqi's order, the soldiers in charge of operating the firearms laid out the firearms one by one and aimed them at their targets.

Chen Ping climbed back and whispered to Ren Siqi that there was a trench with a width of one zhang in front of the fence of the Qing army, which made it very difficult for the Daishan army to break into the Qing army's camp.

Ren Siqi's face was ugly, it was not so easy to break through the trench without preparation, so the only way to break through was to break through the main gate of the camp. However, there are several antlers placed outside the main gate of the Qing army camp, and there are camp gates, and there are arrow towers on both sides of the camp gate. It takes time to remove the antlers and break open the camp gate, which is enough time for the Qing soldiers to react and besiege their own side.

It is worthy of being the most powerful army in the East, and in addition to being arrogant and arrogant, it is so well guarded when camping! Such a tight camp was set up in just one day!

Chen Ping lowered his head in shame, when he investigated during the day, he didn't dare to approach the Qing army camp at all, how could he see clearly from a distance of more than a mile.

It's not advisable to attack it, it seems that you can only harass it, but you are not reconciled. Ren Siqi lowered his head and thought for a while, then gave the order.

More than 300 Divine Fire Crows were the first to ignite, and the gunpowder ignited and erupted, pushing the Crows to spread their wings and fly towards the Qing camp.

One after another, with a brilliant firelight, gracefully flew to the camp of the Qing soldiers.

The Qing soldiers on duty on the arrow tower raised their heads suddenly, and looked at this strange scene that happened not far away, a glowing bird, which had never been seen before. Just when he was stunned, he saw the bird fall from the sky above the camp, and exploded with a "bang", bursting out with ten thousand sparks, and the flying crow happened to fall on the top of a camp tent, and the sparks that burst out ignited the camp tent at once.

"Enemy attack!" The Qing soldier on the arrow tower immediately reacted, hurriedly pulled out his bow, and shot a feathered arrow towards the starting point of the flying crow. He was a soldier of the Eight Banners of Meng, a well-known archer in the army, and his eyesight and archery skills were excellent, so he was sent to the arrow tower and was responsible for guarding the entire battalion. But no matter how powerful his arrows were, it would be difficult to shoot at a target a hundred paces away at night when he couldn't see clearly.

At the same time as the arrow was fired, the Qing soldier shouted loudly, and another Qing soldier who was sleeping in the arrow tower was also startled and hurriedly stood up. Just as the Qing soldiers were about to shoot the second arrow at the firebird that flew up one after another, they didn't notice that more than a dozen small fireheads lit up not far from his arrow tower, which were the Daishan musketeers who ignited the fire rope again.

"Bang bang bang" The sound of more than ten musket shots resounded, and the Qing soldier felt a continuous sharp pain in his chest, and he was no longer able to pull up the curved bow in his hand. The Qing soldier, who had just woken up, could not even find his bow and arrow, but was hit by a projectile flying from below. A salvo of ten muskets, there was no room to hide on the small arrow tower.

The other three groups of musketeers wiped out the Qing soldiers on the other three arrow towers with the same volley, so that the Daishan soldiers who operated the firearms no longer had to worry about the threat of the arrow towers.

One after another, the crows flew towards the Qing barracks, and one brilliant fireworks after another burst out in the camp, the flames splashed, and colorful fire points sprayed in all directions. This was a gift from the Ming soldiers to the invaders, a reward for their brutal killing.

The sound of continuous explosions woke the entire camp, and countless soldiers ran out of their tents naked, unaware of what was happening.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Many soldiers shouted and screamed around the camp like headless flies, dozens of tents were set on fire, and the flames quickly ignited, and the flames shone on the panicked eyes of the Qing soldiers.

Suddenly attacked by the enemy, even if it is a strong soldier like the Eight Banners, he will panic. When a sudden explosion occurs outside while sleeping, and the tent above his head is suddenly set on fire, even the best of his mind will panic.

The Eight Banners are better, after all, they are battle-hardened professional soldiers, and killing and attacking is their life. It has always been them who take the initiative to attack the enemy, when have they been attacked by the enemy, and when they are still sleeping, many Eight Banners soldiers ran out of the camp with their bare butts, and they didn't know what was happening.
