69 The army was defeated like a mountain

The tiger squat cannon weighed about thirty-six pounds, and in order to increase its power and kill as many enemies as possible, Hu Guang picked it up and fired it flat.

He also knew that there was recoil, so he tried to tie his horse and hold it with his feet. Who knew that this body was far from being comparable to the physical quality of later generations, and he was suddenly impacted by the reaction force, fell, and the tiger squat cannon still pressed on him.

However, the effect is also very good, the lead bullet is shot out one by one, mostly the leg position of the Ming army, compared with the normal firing diagonally upward, to attack the torso of the Ming army, obviously can kill and injure the enemy more.

At this time, the rebels first cheered, and then they were busy attacking the Ming army under the city, and no one cared about Hu Guang. Wang Jiayin laughed, walked over quickly and pulled Hu Guang up.

When Hu Guang got up, he could see that the Ming army outside the city was like a long snake, constantly swarming over, and under the city, it was chaotic. He couldn't help but immediately suggest to Wang Jiayin: "Brother Wang, don't come again when you have the opportunity now, you have to act quickly!" ”

Wang Jiayin is also a decisive person, he looked up to check the chaos under the city, and found that the Ming army was already in chaos away from the city wall, so he nodded and said loudly: "Okay, let's see my Wang's performance!" ”

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and ordered the two guards to follow Hu Guang, and at the same time told them: "Protect our little Zhuge and don't go wrong!" Apparently he remembered that no one had paid attention to Hu Guang just now.

More than a mile outside the city, Vendron watched with great annoyance as the victory of the city was lost. He loudly issued an order for the follow-up Ming army to stop, and the general and the remaining horse army were also trying to gather and settle the rebels under the city.

They all knew that they had just missed the opportunity to take down Fugu in one go, so they could only camp outside the city, and then bring siege equipment to attack the city.

At this time, the sunset is only half exposed on the top of the mountain, and the sky is about to get dark, and the weather at this time is getting colder and colder.

The Ming army, which was far away from the city wall, stood still, and the sweaty body was blown by the cold wind, feeling tired, hungry and cold, and they all looked forward to setting up camp early in order to have a good rest.

However, none of them expected that suddenly there was a shout from the city, and the gate gate was opened, and out of it rushed out of the thieves.

There were about fifty or sixty knights at the head, leading countless thieves to roar and kill, and in the blink of an eye, they bit the nearest Ming army.

The thief with a rainbow of momentum encountered the exhausted and panicked Ming army, as easy as chopping vegetables and melons. The Ming army's foot soldiers could still resist it, and they all mustered up their strength to flee for their lives.

The military general didn't see it well, he was riding a horse, and hurriedly ran backwards, and came to Wan Delong's place: "My lord, the thief is fierce, hurry up, right?" ”

When Wan Delong heard this, he raised the horse whip in his hand, and actually gave the military general a whip, and then pointed at the county seat of Fugu with the horse whip and shouted: "This official is worried that there is a city wall to block it, and he can't attack the city!" Now that the thief is stupid, he took the initiative to go out of the city, how can he miss such a great opportunity? ”

The generals thought about it, and Wan Delong was unwilling to run, if he ran away, he would definitely not end up well, so he could only organize the Ming army behind to set up the formation, and at the same time send people to shout, so that the Ming army that had retreated in front of him would scatter to both sides.

Before the formation was completely set up, the defeated army had already retreated. Although many of them had experience and knew that they could not attack the main formation, there were many more who were afraid of being chased by thieves behind them, so they retreated directly to the main formation.

The military general also knew that it was time to play with his life, and the other party was just a pariah, and the instinctive contempt gave him the courage to immediately organize a group of elite soldiers to stop and kill the defeated soldiers and thieves in front.

Wang Jiayin took all the elites, including Yang Liu, Bu Mu and others, to the front, and behind him was a steady stream of rebels. All kinds of weapons are available, including sticks, hoes, etc.

At the beginning, with them as arrows, it was quite smooth to kill them.

When it came to the group of people organized by the generals, they felt resistance. However, the other side is exhausted and has no morale, while his side has had a full meal before the war, and its morale is like a rainbow, so the front is still advancing.

Wan Delong looked at the generals and was a little bit closer, unable to withstand the attack of the thieves. Just behind, an order was issued to organize the remaining Ming troops to continue to deploy the formation.

He believed that as long as the thieves were blocked in front, he would be able to fight back after the organization on his side was completed. In this way, I still have a chance to stay in Fugu County tonight!

But it is not so easy to organize the remaining Ming troops who continue to come over. He was busy when he suddenly heard shouts of killing coming from behind him.

He looked up at the sound and was immediately frightened. I saw that in the valley behind me, another group of thieves suddenly appeared.

The first was also led by knights, with more than a hundred horsemen, and swooped in. There were countless thieves behind him, who followed the cavalry and rushed to kill them. Although the sun had set behind the mountain, the dust raised from there could be seen from the afterglow, and there were thousands of thieves.

Wan Delong is just a civil official, but he also knows that if he is attacked by this thief and joins up with the thieves in the city, his side will not be able to stop him no matter what.

He immediately looked up to the sky and sighed, there was no time to organize the Ming army to adjust its formation to block this thief army, let alone support the generals who were fighting hard against the thieves out of the city in front.

Without saying a word, Wan Delong pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and fled.

This immediately triggered an avalanche-like effect. The Ming army behind saw that Zhou Tongzhi had run away, and they all ran with him.

With such a big movement behind him, naturally he couldn't hide it from the general. When he saw that the thieves had ambushed a troop of men outside, he knew he couldn't do anything.

Immediately saw that Zhou Tongzhi ran away first, and he was not to be left behind, and immediately turned his horse's head and ran. When I ran, I still secretly hated these untouchables in my heart, how could they be so powerful, and they knew how to use tricks? It's a pity that the family members he cultivated with great difficulty were all lost in this seemingly easy suppression.

Contrary to these Ming troops, the righteous army saw Hu Kuan leading the army to kill, and the Ming army abandoned their armor and ran away, and their morale rose suddenly, even if they were usually cowardly people, they also fought bravely to kill at this time.

As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain, and the situation at this time is only a one-sided pursuit, and the overall situation has been decided.

When the sky was completely dark, although the north wind was howling, the rebels were all elated. I originally thought that these regular Ming troops were invincible, but I didn't think about it, but it was as simple as slaughtering sheep and dogs, and many people's hearts unconsciously had a glimmer of hope for the future.

They carried torches and scattered outside the city, cleaning up the battlefield.

After this battle, the equipment and combat effectiveness of the righteous army can be raised to a higher level, Hu Guang stood at the head of the city and thought.

Suddenly, he saw a scene outside the city, and he couldn't help frowning. After thinking about it for a while, he took the two guards that Wang Jiayin had sent to him before leaving, walked quickly down the city, and went out of the city.
