When there were still more than ten miles away from Baoding City, the scouts came to report the information they had detected.

Wang Xiaoer had already gone to Changping with Wen Kun, Ma Xianglin and others to prevent Qin Liangyu from leading the white pole soldiers to fight in Yanqing Prefecture, which invisibly weakened the power of the scouts, but Zheng Xunrui had already decided that the Zheng family army and the Houjin Tartars were fighting face to face, so the scouts needed to investigate the situation that the Houjin Tartars had already arrived and when they were expected to arrive in Baoding City.

The scouts have long had scouts in Laishui and Yizhou to continuously reconnoiter the movements of the Golden Tartars, so getting information should be expected.

However, Zheng Xunrui knew in his heart that the scouts were not immortals, Yizhou was about two hundred miles away from Baoding Fucheng, and even if the scouts had wings, it was impossible for them to report the specific situation after the scouts set off from Yizhou.

Sure enough, the situation reported by the scouts was that it was expected that Houjin Tartar would set off from Yizhou on the 18th and go to Baoding Fucheng, that is to say, the time of departure of Houjin Tartar and Zheng Jiajun was the same.

This gave Zheng Xunrui more confidence.

Zheng Jiajun set off from Gaoyang Xujiawokeng, only seventy-two miles away from Baoding Fucheng, Du Du led the Houjin Tartar from Yizhou, two hundred miles away from Baoding Fucheng, who can rush to Baoding Fucheng first, this is no need to guess, and Zheng Jiajun's arrival in advance of this time is very precious, so that Zheng Jiajun can hurry up to make some necessary deployments.

Zheng Xunrui ordered the army to speed up the march and reach the destination as soon as possible.

The destination of the army was seven miles away from the city of Baoding, where the name of the place was Qiliping.

A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Xunrui had already arrived at Qiliping.

The situation in front of him made Zheng Xunrui frown, Qiliping is actually a market town, and the houses of the people are all around, the market is trading at this moment, people are coming and going, and no one knows that the Golden Tartars have been killed here.

Zheng Xunrui couldn't wait to immediately call the prefect of Baoding Mansion over and reprimand him loudly, and then the Golden Tartar entered Baoding Mansion to loot. The prefect yamen must know the situation, the new city of Laishui Yizhou and other cities have been ransacked, in this case, the prefect yamen at least needs to let the people hide, so as not to encounter the slaughter of the Houjin Tartars, with today's communication conditions, remote villages and towns can not be informed. But in a place like Qiliping, you can still talk about it.

Winter moon and wax moon. It is the most lively time in the villages and towns, especially after entering the wax moon.

The people in Qiliping Market Town, after the army, had a panicked look on their faces, and the people on the official road took refuge on both sides, and the temporary shops placed on both sides of the official road also began to pack up their things.

Hong Xinyu immediately commanded his own soldiers and began to disperse the people in the bazaar, demanding that they all move in the direction of Baoding Fucheng. Some of the people who were about to go home were stopped by the sergeants and told that it was safe to go in the direction of Baoding Fucheng.

After learning that the golden tartar was about to be killed, the bazaar instantly became chickens and dogs, and many people were dizzy like headless flies, swarming towards the direction of Baoding Fucheng. They know the brutality of the Houjin Tartars, and if they are really caught by the Houjin Tartars, their lives will definitely not be saved.

Zheng Xunrui was a little annoyed by the previous scene, some people followed and ran towards Baoding City, and many people were busy cleaning up the shop. There is chaos everywhere, and when it is completely calm down here, I am afraid that the Houjin Tartars have already arrived, and besides, Baixin is in a hurry, and there is a mess everywhere, and the scouts sent by the Houjin Tartars will definitely arouse vigilance.

Zheng Xunrui coldly gave the order. Gather all the people here into one house, and send some of the sergeants to clean up all the shops as quickly as possible, and it is impossible to care who sells them is.

After the order was given, the people who had been driven out began to weep.

Zheng Xunrui can't manage that much, this is not the time for mercy.

Half an hour later, the surroundings were quiet, and all the things in the bazaar were cleaned up, and no one would believe that there was ever a bazaar here, unless they were careful about the details, it was possible to find out, and it should be said that the scouts of the Houjin Tartars would not notice these details.

The first to deploy is the artillery battalion, the erection of artillery needs a suitable position, but also to calculate the range and distance, the second is the deployment of the Shenji battalion, which is much simpler, the place where they are deployed, is where the Qiliping market is located, and the last deployment is the cavalry, they undertake the task of fighting face-to-face with the Houjin Tartars.

Everything is deployed in an orderly manner.

Zheng Xunrui came to the position where the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were deployed.

A row of sacks spread out means that this is the position held by the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion.

Hong Xintao reported that the officers and men of the Shenji Battalion had been deployed.

"Young master, the soldiers of the eight thousand Shenji Battalion are divided into three queues, each queue is three thousand people, one queue at a time participates in the attack, and the remaining two queues are ready, the three thousand people who participated in the attack, one thousand people are prostrate on the ground to shoot, one thousand people are squatting to shoot, and one thousand people are standing to shoot, so that three thousand people can be guaranteed to shoot at the same time, and the dense firepower makes it impossible for Houjin Tartars to dodge."

"Changing the queue every quarter of an hour, or the interval between each charge of the Houjin Tartars, will ensure the accuracy and accuracy of the shots ......"

While reporting to the police, Hong Xintao asked the officers and men of the Shenji Battalion to give an example.

Zheng Xunrui was careful and very satisfied, the place in Qiliping is not big, and it is not easy to line up a thousand soldiers in a line, and it has reached the limit, Hong Xintao obviously used enough effort and carefully pondered the graphics drawn by the scouts, so he was able to arrange the deployment in a short time.

Choosing Qiliping as the location of the fight, there is no way to do it, Baoding Mansion City as the location of the government, there are many households within dozens of miles around, many gentry and rich households are willing to build houses or manors near the city, this is the rule that has been followed for hundreds of years, many manors are formed in this way, if the place of the fight is too far away from the Baoding City, it is more unfavorable for the deployment of the Zheng army.

"Very good, I remind you to pay attention to one thing, the bow and arrow of the Houjin Tartar is very powerful, although the distance of two hundred meters to three hundred meters, the bow and arrow basically lose its power, but also pay attention to the power of the bow and arrow fired after the cavalry of the Houjin Tartar approaches, and all the soldiers are required to wear cotton armor and wear helmets, this is an order, and they must not take off their helmets because they are not good to launch, if someone violates them, they must be severely punished."

The deployment of the artillery battalion was quite difficult.

The requirements for the artillery battalion in this battle are very high, and the shells must land steadily and ruthlessly, so as not to injure the officers and men of the Shenji Battalion, and also to block the retreat route of the Houjin Tartars to the greatest extent.

There are a lot of masters in the artillery battalion, more than 300 of them come from Xiyi, they are familiar with the structure of the Hongyi cannon, this is the backbone of the artillery battalion, each Hongyi cannon, equipped with ten people, the division of labor is very clear, there are reporting parameters, there are loading shells, there are adjusting the firing distance, there are special launches, some are complicated, but after strict training, the cooperation of everyone is extremely tacit, to ensure that in the shortest time, the most shells are fired.

There were a large number of men and men protecting the artillery battalions, two artillery battalions of 4,000 men, of which 3,000 were responsible for security, and in the event of an attack on the artillery battalion, these officers and men had to protect the artillery and gunners until the arrival of the large forces.

The ninety Hongyi cannons of the artillery battalion, as well as the sixty Fulong machines, are erected in two places, the erection site of the Hongyi cannons is three miles away from Qiliping, where the terrain is very flat, easy to erect and launch the Hongyi cannons, and the erection site of the Fulang machine is 800 meters away from Qiliping Town.

Zheng Xunrui is not particularly familiar with the Hongyi cannon and the Furlong machine, he is not an expert, so he will not put forward many suggestions, but the requirements still have to be put forward, Zheng Kaitao was in charge of command when the artillery battalion was established, it can be said that he is an expert in artillery, which is also a special arrangement made by Zheng Xunrui.

Liu Zeqing, who is familiar with operational deployment, is responsible for coordinating the attack of the artillery battalion, and is more able to ensure the power of the artillery.

"Liu Zeqing, Zheng Kaitao, the role of the artillery battalion is very important, whether you can win the golden tartar or not, the key is that the artillery battalion will exert the greatest power, I am waiting for your good news."

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely call the Houjin Tartar ghost to cry wolf howl."

The last is the deployment of the cavalry battalion, the cavalry battalion led by Zheng Jinhong, a total of 28,000 people, so many soldiers charged at the same time, the formation and queue are very important, Qiliping is not a particularly open area, and there are houses and houses to block, so seize the best reality to charge, you can ensure the greatest victory.

Although the role played by the Shenji Battalion and the Artillery Battalion was extraordinary, the end of the battle still relied on the cavalry battalion, and the fighting on the ground could truly show the domineering spirit of the Zheng family's soldiers and soldiers, and only then could it really make the Houjin Tartars fearful.

Although Zheng Jinhong is the chief soldier of the Zheng family's army, he has always been in charge of the cavalry battalion, and with the continuous growth of the Zheng family's army, there are more and more officers in charge of each matter, Zheng Jinhong does not have so much spirit and time to understand every thing, but he is still the most important for the cavalry.

Zheng Xunrui didn't need to ask for anything, he completely believed Zheng Jinhong, but he couldn't help but say something.

"Jin Hong, you are the chief soldier of the Zheng family's army, although the Zheng family's army requires that every battle be the officer's charge at the front, but you are different, in the future battle, don't charge at the front, what you need to strengthen is the ability to strategize, not the ability to kill the enemy directly, I can't always command the Zheng family army to fight, maybe after a long time, you will have to command the Zheng family army alone."
