After Ho Shuzhi crossed the canal, he naturally sent a horse scout and a sentry and sent someone to contact Kuching and Tong Baoyi.

At this time, as all the units of the Qing army began to retreat, and the control of the rear was completely disintegrated, the Xia army's horses and messengers made it possible to pass through the war zone behind the enemy without hindrance, and soon He Shuzhi brought the latest information and contacted the two departments of Gu and Tang.

However, what surprised He Shuzhi was that the main force of the Tang Department did not catch up with the Yinyu Department after crossing the canal, this is the situation of Shenma?

Let's go back in time, in the early morning of the 14th, the Fourth Division of the Xia Army's Iron Cavalry Army attacked the Qing army very successfully, and the last 5,000 people attacked the Qing army's rear guard 20,000 people with a thunderous blow is a classic, and the Qing army, which will not be able to improve the defense facilities in the future, will not be able to leave a piece of armor. But the problem arose after dawn, because the Qing army burned down the canal pontoon bridge, the Xia army could only rebuild it by itself, and the Qing army had already collected all the fishing boats, ferries, and door panels in the surrounding villages early in the morning, and even a few groves did not escape the poisonous hands of the Qing army, so the Xia army could only go farther to collect materials for the construction of the pontoon bridge.

After being busy for a long time, and before the materials were enough, an ordinary soldier of the Xia Army from the Cao Gang suddenly reported that he remembered that the canals in Linqing were very shallow, and they still needed to be dragged by a slender man to sail during the dry season in autumn.

Is this really true or fake? If the water is really shallow, why did the Qing army build a pontoon bridge and burn the pontoon bridge, is it that there is nothing to do and be fed? Someone said on the spot, don't care about the real or fake, just send someone to try it. So, two Xia soldiers with good water characteristics touched the river. No, the deepest part of the canal is only to the chest. Look at the men waving on the water, and then look at the building materials that have been so hard to find, 10,000 grass and mud horses are swelling in Xia Jun's chest. But later, looking at the floating corpses of the Qing army resting on the shore, everyone understood that the southern ship and the northern horse did have a saying.

Since the water is not deep, let's cross the river. Cannons were set up here to prevent the Qing army from killing a horse gun, but the various departments crossed the canal in turn, but the artillery team still had to wait for the pontoon bridge to be erected before crossing the river, but well, as long as the Xia army brigade crossed the river, even if there was no artillery, it could fight with the Qing army that also lacked heavy firearms for a few rounds.

After crossing the canal, Tang Baoyi, who had been in the war for a long time, knew that he would send a scout horse to track down the movements of the Qing army, but he also had an extra mind, in addition to setting up a sentry in the north, he also launched a reconnaissance line in the southwest. I don't know if I don't check, and I'm shocked when I check it. It turned out that Yinyu's troops had spread their legs and had already run across the Qinghe River and were almost to Zaoyang. However, at this level, if the Xia army catches up, it is still possible to catch up, but the Yinzhen Department of the Qing Army, which is a daimyo in the south, has fled to the north of Guantao and almost to the west, and the straight-line distance from the Yang Department is less than ten miles away.

What to do? Is it to pursue Yinzhen or block Yinzhen and Yinzhen brothers? Of course, the answer is not to think, ten birds in the forest is not as good as one bird in hand. With the Kuching Ministry contained, it is impossible for Yinhe to escape to Beijing in one go, and there is always a chance to catch up; And if Yinzhen and Yinzhen are not blocked, it is possible to form a situation of front and back attack with Yinzhen, and then it will capsize in the gutter.

Therefore, Tang Baoyi immediately made a decision and rushed to Linxi to block Yinzhen and Yinzhen, and at the same time sent people to find a way to contact Kuching and He Shuzhi, so that they could contain Yinzhen, as for Chen Baoquan, who was still destroying the remnants of the Daimyo defenders on the southern front, Tang Baoyi also sent people to contact, so that they could stop caring about sesame seeds and hurry up to pick up watermelons.

Therefore, on the morning when He Shuzhi crossed the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in the Dezhou section and tried to contact Yang Bokang, in addition to the 2nd Division of the Guangwei Army and the 4th Division of the Shesheng Army guarding the Yinzhen Division between Qinghe and Nangong, the main force of the Xia Army, 150,000, was fighting a decisive battle between Linxi, Weixian, and Qiu County and the Yinzhen and Yinyu Divisions of the Qing Army, which had fled north in a hurry.

The Qing army that fled north was only more than 90,000 people, and in the face of the resistance of the 150,000 Xia army, there was naturally no possibility of winning by chance, but no one could rule out the possibility of the trapped beast still fighting, so Tang Baoyi either did not make a move, and as soon as he made a move, he went all out to strive for a face to defeat the Qing army without heavy artillery support.

Looking at the neat and slaughtering array of Xia Jun in front of him, Yin Zhen, who had not closed his eyes for two days and two nights, hid his face and sighed: "The Qing Dynasty is over." ”

Yinyu, who also had red eyes, drew his sword in his hand, and said to the crowd of Goshha: "The general order of this Beizi, only by breaking through can there be a way to live, think about the family members in Jingshi City, they are still waiting for you to go to the rescue!" ”

Goshha conveyed Yinyu's words, and the Qing army, which was originally on the verge of collapse, recovered its morale slightly, yes, that's right, if you want to survive, you just need to pass the current hurdle first. The Qing army, which had figured it out, quickly reorganized its ranks, but before they could clarify the chaotic formation, the Xia army had already slowly pressed on.

Seeing that the Xia army was about to kill the generals, the Qing army lined up regardless of the formation, among which the birds of the Eight Banners New Army lined up in a horizontal formation one by one, and the two wings were a phalanx composed of mixed green battalions and new battalions, and even the flag soldiers of the inner and outer firearms battalions who had lost their artillery were lined up in the rear of the bird guns with their swords at their waists, ready to participate in hand-to-hand combat at any time.

"It's kind of interesting." Looking at the reaction of the Qing army, a sneer appeared on the corner of Tang Baoyi's mouth. "Over the years, the Tartars have grown, and the team is lined up well, so I don't know how the fight will be." Having said that, Tang Baoyi did not mean to let the Xia army rush straight into the Qing army array. "Come on, order the artillery teams of all divisions and give me a hard beating!"

The Xia army pursued all the way, and it was naturally impossible for those heavy artillery regiments directly under the Privy Council to follow behind, but if only more than 80 artillery pieces were counted by one division of the Xia army, fifteen divisions would be 1,200 guns. Although they are all small cannons, with limited range and average power, they can't hold up a large number. At a distance of 50 to 80 Huaxia steps away from the Qing army, such a fire was immediately poured into the hearts of the Qing army like a storm.

The Eight Banners New Army was a professional firearms unit trained by the Qing court in accordance with strict regulations, and the emphasis was on not moving like a mountain under enemy artillery fire, but in the face of the Xia Army's overwhelming rain of bullets like a net, they could not withstand it, so they had to take the initiative to meet it, so as not to wipe out the whole army without a single bullet.

The New Army of the Eight Banners couldn't stand it, let alone the Green Battalion New Army on both sides, after being forced to suffer for a while, they couldn't stand it and rushed out violently, and rushed straight to the artillery of the Xia Army. Seeing that the Qing army's two wings were loose, the Xia army's artillery team immediately retreated - the eight-point guns generally equipped by the Xia army were very light, with a total weight of no more than 800 catties. The total weight of the eleven-minute cannon equipped by the Xia Army Artillery Corps is about 1,200 catties, which is much heavier than the eight-minute guns of the team, and it is not something that can be pushed by manpower, but the Xia Army has prepared many dragged horses, and after the last cannon is fired, it will leave as soon as it is pulled.

Seeing that the artillery team of the Xia Army retreated under the pressure of their own side, there was a burst of cheers from the new battalion of the Green Battalion, but a few leaders of the Eight Banners New Army who had been trained by the Dutch burst into tears, but the formation had already been moved, so they could only go down hard.

It's just that the Xia army is also thinking that the Qing army is slowly approaching in front of them, and after the passage reserved by their artillery team through Guò is withdrawn to the rear, the Xia army's horizontal formation is suddenly elongated, and the original three-row array is naturally transformed into a double-row array, although it seems that the firepower is reduced, but the number of projectiles fired in a single shot has increased significantly.

The green battalions on both sides of the frenzy came into contact with the Xia army first, only to see all the Xia troops raise their guns, and quickly disperse after firing a volley at the approaching green battalion soldiers, revealing the white soldiers who were not yet armored behind them. The half of the white soldiers, who had two sets of armor on their backs, quickly put on the armor of their companions, and after removing the other set, sat down and rested.

Although only half of the battle can be put into battle, there are more than 2,000 white soldiers of the Xia army on each wing, although they can't be a hundred, but they are still in the mainstay posture with the support of the infantry stabbing gun formation, and they block the front of the green flag soldiers. The artillery corps that the Xia army withdrew to the rear also began to fire at a wide angle to block the follow-up of the Qing army's follow-up troops.

The real decisive is the strength of the Xia army, because the Xia army has nearly half more than half of the Qing army, so the flanks of the Xia army extend more widely, when the two wings of the Qing army and the Xia army fight, the outermost Xia army will calmly spread out on the side, and then there is a platoon of guns to knock the Qing army that is rushing to the ground in a row.

If the flank of the Qing army was oppressed by the main forces of the Xia army, then the new army of the Thirty Leaders and Eight Banners in front of the Qing army received the power of the Xia army's volley. On the surface, the Qing army's firepower was continuous, and from time to time it knocked down the Xia officers and soldiers who fired at it, but in fact, the Xia army's salvo was more powerful - due to the extremely poor accuracy of the firearms in this era, only large-scale shots could cause considerable damage, and the Xia army's double-row salvo could drop more projectiles in a single shot than the Qing army's single-row salvo, so the damage caused was greater - after a few shots, the strength of the Eight Banners New Army began to decrease rapidly.

Seeing that the Xia army could not win the battle in front of him, the New Army of the Eight Banners simply dispersed, allowing the internal and external firearms with knives behind them to rush up for hand-to-hand combat. You scatter and I disperse, the Xia army also let go of the passage, so a scene that frightened the Eight Banners appeared, and the six thousand iron cavalry of the Fourth Division of the Iron Cavalry Army who were still capable of fighting rushed out, and immediately beat the banner soldiers to pieces.

The war was unfavorable, and the old habit of the Manchurian soldiers who liked to turn in suddenly made a mistake, only to see the groups of flag soldiers drop their weapons and turn around and flee to the rear. As soon as the flag soldiers fled like this, the whole army was immediately involved, and the green flag soldiers, who were already forced to work for the Manchurians, did not want to fight for a long time, and when they saw that the masters had run away, they naturally fled with them.

"It's over! It's completely over! Looking at the defeat of the army, Yinzhen sighed and touched the sword on his waist. Emperor Ama, the sons and daughters are loyal??????"

"Fourth brother!" A call woke up Yin Zhen, who was bent on death, he raised his head and looked around, but saw a fist enlarged in front of his eyes, and then fainted. "You minions, hurry up and take the fourth brother to run west, it's best to run all the way to the foot of Taihang Mountain, and then go north, don't go back to Beijing City, go directly out of Xuanhua and go to the south of the country to go to Guanwai."

Beile Mansion, who took Yinzhen, asked, "Fourteenth Master, what about you?" ”

"Me?" Yinyu gave Yiyang the sword in his hand. "Of course, it's the same to run for your life, stay in Qingshan and don't be afraid of no firewood!"

"Ah??????h
