Fifteen hundred shells sound like a lot, but they are not very conspicuous when spread evenly over the thirty Napoleonic guns, and the number of fifty rounds per cannon is declared exhausted after only one hour, and this is only done when the fighting is stopped.

In this hour, it was a nightmare for the Qing army, and the more than 1,000 shells took the lives of at least 4,000 Qing soldiers, and also turned at least the same number of Qing soldiers into wounded soldiers.

"Boom" When the last shell exploded in the Qing barracks, no shells fell in the camp for a full two quarters of an hour.

Amin, who was hiding in a grove under the protection of dozens of Goshkha, looked at the sky with tears in his eyes and muttered, "Immortal God bless, those Ming army shells have finally run out." Quick, hurry up and order everyone to assemble! ”

As soon as the hour passed, the sky began to brighten, and the Qing soldiers, who had been shelled for an hour, finally came out of various hiding places and began to assemble under the orders of the surviving officials at all levels.

Most of them were disheveled, some wore only underwear, and some even shivered in the morning breeze with their bodies, and even fewer of them still had weapons in their hands.

Amin looked at the black and oppressive army in front of him that was comparable to the army called Hanako and almost cried bitterly, is this still the invincible hero of the Great Qing Kingdom? Now, I'm afraid that a group of farmers can defeat them, right?

Amin called Shuotuo and said with a solemn expression: "Shuotuo, you immediately count the men and horses, and let the soldiers put on their armor and pick up their weapons, and after half an hour, we will immediately march to Kaesong, there are still our garrison men and horses, only by joining them will we have a way to live, otherwise our tens of thousands of troops will fall into a state of no return." ”

"Scum!"

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Shuoto immediately took the order and left, and after two quarters of an hour, a gloomy face came back and reported: "Erbeyler, we have killed and wounded nearly 8,000 people last night, and more than 2,000 are missing, and now we have only more than 20,000 soldiers available. ”

"What, so serious!"

Amin's body, which was originally pale, shook for a while, and he almost fell if it weren't for the support of the long knife in his hand. Although he expected that last night's losses would be not small, he did not expect the losses to be so large, what does this mean, this shows that the 50,000 troops he led this time, out of the 10,000 troops left in the passes of various parts of Korea, the 40,000 troops in his hands have lost half, and this loss will be painful for the sparsely populated Great Qing Kingdom.

"Go, go right away, you must not stay here any longer." Worthy of being the commander of the rebel army, Amin quickly came to his senses of grief, he knew that if this demoralized army, which had lost most of its materials, continued to stay here, it would only be the total annihilation, "Order the soldiers to immediately sort out the supplies and leave the camp on time in a quarter of an hour." ”

Every move of the Qing army was ambushed by the Ming army around the night and watched, when Pang Gang, who was two miles away, received the report that the night did not collect, he also had to praise the quality of the Eight Banners Army in this period is indeed not comparable to those of the Eight Banners who rely on hardcore crops to feed and can only carry birdcages on the street.

"Since they want to go, why don't we say goodbye." Pang Gang's face smiled, but there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes, didn't he lead thousands of men and horses to feed the mosquitoes here for a night?

In fact, Pang Gang did not think of taking advantage of the darkness to lead the army to rush into the Qing army camp, but it was not so easy to attack the enemy camp in the dark night when the defense facilities were complete and the terrain was unfamiliar, and there was still the possibility of being bitten by the enemy, so Pang just decided to set up an ambush next to this nameless hill on the road where the Qing army retreated.

At the end of the hour, a group of dozens of cavalry slowly drove out of the large camp of the Qing army, and after they left the camp, they scattered and rushed forward, behind them was a dense Qing army of men and horses, and their target was the northwest direction where Pang Gang was ambushed.

Pang Gang stood on a small hill and watched from a distance, and a man who rode a horse quickly at night came to report: "My lord, the men and horses of the Tartars have already left the camp and are now heading here, and there are dozens of Qing army spies at the head. ”

"Got it." Pang Gang nodded to indicate that he knew, and then raised the clairvoyant mirror in his hand to observe the direction in which the Qing soldiers were coming.

After a while, there was a slight sound of horses' hooves ahead, and dozens of Qing army spies were scattering to reconnoiter the surroundings, and Pang Gang knew that it was impossible for his side to sneak attack in this situation.

"Since you're here, let's do it with real guns." Pang Gang spit out a grass root in his mouth, turned his head and shouted, "Order the brothers in front of you to get rid of those nasty spies." ”

"Yes!"

"Bang Bang Bang"

With a crisp soft sound, more than ten spies of the Qing army who were carefully checking the movements on both sides fell down in the gunshot, and the remaining ten or so spies were so frightened that they immediately fled desperately.

Soon, Amin, who was rushing here with the Qing army, received a report from the spies.

"Sure enough, those Ming troops really set up an ambush here." Amin sighed and said to the two Jialazhangjing beside him: "Abala and Soratu, you take your headquarters to attack that small hill, remember, I don't want you to capture that hill, as long as you can attract the firepower of the Ming army, you can retreat after the large army passes, understand?" ”

The two Jialazhangjing, whose names were called, glanced at each other, as if they both saw the sadness in each other's eyes, they knew that this was basically an errand of nine deaths and a lifetime, and it seemed that Erbeile was going to abandon his two Jiala.

Looking at the two Jia Lazhangjing who hesitated for a moment, Amin's face suddenly sank, and he said in a gloomy voice: "What, don't you want to go?" ”

In the Qing army, there was only one way to disobey military orders, and that was to be put into a sack and trampled to death by a random horse.

A Jia Lazhangjing knelt down towards Amin and cried: "Lord Belle, this is going to die for a lifetime, and the slave has nothing else to ask for, only that Lord Belle can promise the slave one thing." ”

"Well, you say!" The expression on Amin's face remained unchanged, and he still spoke in a cold voice.

"The slave only asks for one thing, if the slave can't go back, the slave's unsuccessful dog will inevitably be bullied by the cousins in the clan, if the beylor has the leisure to help the slave's unsuccessful dog, the slave will also thank the great kindness of the beylor under the nine springs."

Perhaps it was the tragic situation of this Jialazhangjing that moved Amin, and he nodded unprecedentedly: "Abala, if you are unfortunately killed in battle, I will help you take care of your family, you can go with confidence!" ”

"Scum, the slave thanked Lord Baylor for his great kindness." Abala knew that although the Baylor in front of him was cold and ruthless, his reputation had always been good, and he said that he would take care of his son, and he would definitely be able to do it.

After Abala kowtowed to Amin three times, he stood aside, and Amin glanced at Jialazhangjing, who had been standing silently beside Abala, and asked, "Soratul, what about you?" Do you also have a son that I want to take care of? ”

Soratu smiled bitterly: "Qiqi Erbeile, the slave doesn't have a son yet, if the slave can't die in his duties, the mother-in-law of the slave's family will definitely run away with others, so the slave has nothing to say." ”

Amin waved his hand impatiently: "Since there is nothing to say, then you should hurry up!" ”

"My lord, the Tartars are up!" Da Zhuang, who was standing beside Pang Gang, saw the dense Qing soldiers rushing over, and asked in a slightly excited tone: "My lord, let the humble post teach them a lesson, and promise to let them go back obediently." ”

Pang Gang shook his head, "No, you go with Li Yuan." Your task is to eliminate them as soon as possible, and not to be entangled with them for too long, I don't think Amin will be so honest with us, he will definitely find a way to escape. ”

"Yes!" After Li Yuan and Da Zhuang responded in unison, they led two thousand riflemen to form two blocking lines on the hill and began to block the Qing soldiers who were swarming and rushing up.

"Warriors of the Great Qing Kingdom, rush!"

Soratu and Abala led more than 3,000 Qing soldiers in a loose formation, holding shields and screaming towards the hill, while behind them were dense Qing soldiers forcing their way through the hill to the northwest.

"Grass, I can't imagine that this Amin is so ruthless, he can be willing to use two armor lamas as bait and shield, so that he can survive with a broken tail." Looking at the Qing soldiers who couldn't see the end at a glance and swarming towards the front, Pang Gang's face couldn't help but change color slightly, he knew that his original plan to slowly consume the strength of the Qing army here had failed, if he forcibly surrounded it, he and the Qing army would really have to fight for both sides here.

Looking at the Qing soldiers who rushed through the passage ahead, Pang Gang was a little unwilling but helpless to think: "Forget it, there is still a chance to annihilate these Qing soldiers in the future, if you use up your strength now, it will be too cost-effective." ”

Thinking of this, Pang Gang said with some annoyance: "Order Da Zhuang and Li Yuan to kill all the Tartars in front of me, and leave no one behind!" ”

"Bang Bang Bang ......."

Half an hour later, when the last gunshot rang out, there was not a single Qing soldier standing up and down the hill, and the blood that flowed out of the hill almost stained the entire hill red, and the hill was littered with weapons and corpses of Qing soldiers.

"Have all the cavalry been sent out?"

"My lord, they are all sent out, and I promise not to let the Tartars have a good time."

"Tell the brothers, give the official a hard beating, and never show mercy to the Tartars."

"Yes!"

Looking at the dust and smoke in the distance, a sneer appeared at the corner of Pang Gang's mouth, although Amin forced Pang Gang to not dare to invest all his troops to fight with him and let them pass, but Pang Gang would not let Amin go back so easily, a thousand cavalry had already been scattered, and the pursuit began behind the Qing soldiers, I believe that Amin will be very exciting on the next way home.
