King Xin said: "That's right, the thief will bring so many people, it shouldn't be to come and see the excitement before leaving." [top] [point]? ”

"Wait and see. Brother Cheng told us that with 500 brocade guards and 20 tiger squat cannons, even if thousands of troops and horses come, they can defend the camp. Therefore, we don't have to pay attention to the tricks played by the thieves, and we can just hold on to it. ”

The two of them had made up their minds and went back to their respective places. King Shin lay on the fence of the camp as he had just done. Ke Qingqing commanded in the center.

King Shin and Kusakami Fei were separated by five hundred steps, staring at the small ones with big eyes. King Xin didn't order someone to put the cold gun, for fear of scaring the grass away, and there was no battle to fight, so it would be boring. Flying on the grass did not order people to release cold arrows, because it was useless to put them, and the arrows could not fly that far after more than 500 steps.

The two of them just watched, and after two quarters of an hour, the sound of a cupola explosion sounded on the east side of the camp, followed by the explosion of a cupola cannon on the west side.

Ke Qingqing said: "It seems that the thieves want to besiege the camp in four ways. ”

King Xin was overjoyed and said, "Okay, that's how you can fight happily." ”

Ke Qingqing divided the remaining Jinyi guards into five teams, four teams guarded the southeast, northwest, and northwest sides of the camp, and the other team was retained as a mobile force. The captain doesn't have to choose, what Zhu Youcheng left behind was a complete five hundred households, and he could just let the hundred households lead the soldiers to fight.

Ke Qingqing said: "Believe in the prince, you'd better not personally participate in the battle, command the artillery in the east and north, and I command the artillery in the south and west." The artilleryman has calibrated the angle of the cannon, you command the artillery, and when the main force of the thief is concentrated at 300 paces, let the artilleryman open fire. Although I don't know the power of artillery, Brother Makoto is always right. ”

King Shin got up and said, "Okay. I'll be this commander, and I'll definitely blow up the thieves on their backs! ”

At this moment, a sharp explosion of cupola sounded from the north side of the camp, and after a while from the south there was also the explosion of cupola from the south.

Ke Qingqing and King Xin said in unison: "The enemy has begun to attack. ”

After speaking, the two walked to their command positions to observe the enemy's situation. Both of them had telescopes, and they saw the enemy situation clearly. Even the hideous expression on the thief's face could be seen clearly.

When the enemy's forces deployed, the sound of popping beans rang out, and the charging enemies fell one by one like wheat harvesting.

After all, the number of Jinyi guards was too small, and the firepower was not fierce enough, and after dropping nearly a thousand corpses, the thieves finally approached the camp for 300 steps.

Grass Flying was overjoyed, as long as he pushed two hundred steps closer, the soldier could throw arrows to suppress the enemy's firearms. A thousand corpses advanced two hundred steps, that is. If you die another thousand, you can still move forward two hundred steps. It seems that there is hope that the camp will be breached. I remembered seeing the beautiful female soldiers in the camp in the trees, and the small tent on the crotch of the grass flew higher and higher.

After a quarter of an hour, the thieves had left behind a thousand more corpses, and at last they had moved forward with difficulty fifty paces, most of whom were concentrated three hundred paces from the camp.

Zhu Youcheng and Ke Qingqing seized the opportunity and shouted at the gunner. Fire.

The gunner had already loaded the gunpowder and put the flowering shells into the barrel. Shouted: "Cover your ears!" ”

Ke Qingqing, Zhu Youcheng, and all the brocade guards covered their ears together.

Naturally, I couldn't put the gun when I covered my ears, and the sound of the fire stopped abruptly.

The grass is overjoyed, it seems that the ammunition of the camp defenders has run out, and now it is their turn to be powerful. He shouted: "They run out of bullets, let's rush!" ”

Inside the camp. The gunner lit the fuse of the shell, then the lead of the gun, and then covered his ears. I heard a "boom", and the flowering shell exploded at a distance of three hundred paces. A large pit five feet wide appeared in the ground, and the bones of the thieves in their original positions were gone. The soldiers next to him were also knocked to the ground by the shock wave, and some soldiers were hit by the fragments of the bomb and died on the spot. The stumps flew all over the sky, and the wails resounded in the sky.

Ke Qingqing and King Xin's jaws were about to fall to the ground, it turned out that this was the power of artillery, it was really amazing, this cannon took the lives of two hundred people, twenty cannons fired at the same time, and at least half of the thieves were wiped out.

Of course, because it was firing at the same time, the sound of the artillery was a little louder, the ears of Ke Qingqing, King Xin, and Jinyiwei were buzzing, and the Cangzhou city wall in the distance also shook slightly, frightening the soldiers and civilians in the city to think that the earthquake was coming again.

After a long time, Ke Qingqing and King Xin reacted and shouted: "Come back with a second shot to kill this group of rebellious people." ”

The gunner picked up a mop and filled it with water, and smeared it on the inside and outside of the tiger squat cannon to cool it down. However, after the temperature was dropped, the gunners stopped filling the guns with gunpowder. They said, "Two adults, there is no need to open fire. ”

Ke Qingqing looked around, and sure enough, this cannon not only killed more than half of the enemy, but also destroyed the enemy's confidence. The thieves are now crying for their fathers and mothers, and the wolves are fleeing.

The enemy was defeated and routed.

Ke Qingqing immediately made a decision, and ordered a hundred Jinyi guards in the center to ride on war horses, go out of the camp to pursue, and try to maximize the results of the battle.

King Shin mounted a white horse and was about to go out to war. Ke Qingqing pulled him to death: "King Xin, if the son of a daughter doesn't sit in the hall, you can't fight." ”

King Xin still wanted to struggle, but Ke Qingqing said again: "This is what Brother Cheng said, and he also said that if you insist on fighting." After this battle, I won't take you out to fight in the future. ”

Hearing what Ke Qingqing said, King Xin had no choice but to get off his horse unhappily, and pouted: "Okay, I'm afraid of you." ”

The explosion was so strong that Zhu Youcheng, who was chasing the deserter, also heard it. He had already left five hundred brocade guards and twenty tiger squat cannons for Ke Qingqing and King Xin, and he could hold it no matter how he defended it. But if he cared, he called Wu Huping and asked him to take 500 soldiers back to the camp.

Looking at the thieves begging all over the ground, Zhu Youcheng ordered someone to notify the Cangzhou defenders to come out to help. At this time, it was too late for the thieves to flee for their lives, and there was no effective resistance organized at all, so calling the Cangzhou defenders to come out to help was undoubtedly a credit to them.

Chen Guoqi asked a little reluctantly: "My lord, our Jinyi Guard has the ability to destroy the mud, why should we give the credit to the Cangzhou defenders?" ”

"You can also see that I give the credit to the Cangzhou defenders? The Cangzhou defenders were short of armament, and they held the lonely city alone for half a month, without merit and hard work. Give them some credit, so that the officers and soldiers defending the city can be rewarded by the Ming Dynasty, and it is also a reward for their devotion to their duties. Moreover, Cangzhou guards the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and it is always good to have a friend. Maybe you'll need them in the future. ”

Chen Guoqi nodded as if he didn't understand.

Lü Ping rode out on a war horse, followed by two thousand infantry.

Lu Ping saw Zhu Youcheng arching his hand and said, "You are Lord Zhu, you are really a hero." Thank you for letting us into the war. I'm a rough man, I can't speak, if there is anything I need in the future, you just have to speak. ”

Lu Ping is a smart man, and he knew that Zhu Youcheng sent him military merits, so he thanked him repeatedly.

Zhu Youcheng smiled and said, "You're welcome, I'll block the retreat of the thieves." You and I are flanked from both sides, and the thieves will inevitably be captured. ”

After speaking, Zhu Youcheng rode his horse and whipped up, and advanced with the Jinyi guard, blocking the retreat of the chaotic people. There were interceptions in front, pursuers in the rear, and the rebels, who had long been frightened, knelt on the ground and surrendered. Of course, there are also diehards, and they have all become the spirits under the fire.

Zhu Youcheng traveled all the way, saw the ruined countryside, and his hatred for the chaotic people reached its peak, how could he admire the so-called backbone of the diehards? Plague the people, and refuse to surrender, and it is a waste of food to live, so it is better to send him to the western heavens. He wasn't interested in taking someone like that to the noon gate to sacrifice prisoners.

After cleaning the battlefield and counting the achievements, in today's battle, a total of 15,775 thieves were killed and 19,349 enemies were captured. Unfortunately, according to the prisoner's confession, Bu Mu had already escaped under the escort of more than 70 personal soldiers.

Before the battlefield was cleaned up, Wu Huping escorted King Xin with five hundred soldiers, and they also escorted a large number of prisoners.

King Xin happily told Zhu Youcheng that the battle to defend the camp had ended victoriously. In this battle, a total of 6,132 enemies were killed and 3,868 were captured. Originally, the record was not so brilliant, with only a hundred people, it was okay to take advantage of the chaos to cover up, but it was still difficult to capture so many prisoners alive. Fortunately, Wu Huping arrived and the two sides worked together to catch all the bandits.

At that moment, Zhu Youcheng pulled out the camp and entered the city. The prefect Xu Ruzhi and the garrison Lu Ping held a grand banquet at the prefect's yamen, and warmly entertained King Xin, Zhu Youcheng, Wu Huping, Chen Guoqi, and Keqingqing. (To be continued!)
