The first to start the battle was Chen Yanzheng's department, Qianzhou City was small, and the outside of the city was not large, so it was impossible to fully deploy an array of 50,000 troops, let alone 100,000 Liao troops.

The forces of both sides were almost four phalanxes, about 20,000 men.

In fact, this was beneficial to Chen Yanzheng, because this kind of troop contact completely covered up the embarrassment of the relatively small number of troops of the Ming army.

As Yelu Jing's uncle, the two have inseparable interests, and now most of the 65,000 tribal troops under his command are from Yelu Shuogu's tribes, and the 38,000 leather room army is the emperor's descendant.

Therefore, he was ready to give the first few formations to the tribal army to fight, so that they could almost consume the strength of the Ming army, and then the leather room army would go up to pick peaches.

In fact, Yelu Tira was right, for Yelu Jing, no matter how many tribal troops died, he could not shake his throne, and even in some ways, the more tribal troops died, the more stable his throne became. Yelu Jing cares most about the damage of the leather room army. Therefore, Yelutira's consideration is completely in line with Yelujing's thoughts.

As a result, the 20,000 tribal army was sent to act as the vanguard and launched an attack on Chen Yanzheng's 20,000 Ming army.

The Ming army often relied on the fire of muskets to gain the upper hand at the beginning of the battle, but when the two armies approached, the innate strength and horsemanship often enabled the Liao army to turn the tide of the battle.

But this time is different, behind these 50,000 soldiers is the emperor.

Any soldier, even if he is a soldier who is instigated, wants to die a good death in front of the emperor, anyway. At least I can make a mourning for myself and bless future generations.

So, the soldiers of the Ming army at the beginning of the battle. It's already in the groove.

After three rounds of musket fire, the momentum of the Liao army's charge was frustrated, and the Ming soldiers took this opportunity to quickly launch a counter-charge against the Liao army. It is said that the best defense is to attack, and the 20,000 Ming soldiers are like hungry tigers coming out of the gate, pounced on the Liao soldiers who had just been shot by muskets and frustrated their momentum.

And momentum is often the only way to make up for innate strength and riding skills, and those who are afraid of death are afraid of death. Those who are stunned are afraid of dying, and the soldiers of the Ming army at this time are not dying.

The two armies met five miles outside the north gate, and began hand-to-hand combat of charging and counter-charging.

At this time. The advance of Simon Yeluxi's 30,000 Liao cavalry entered the firing range of the trench musketeers. In an instant, 10,000 guns were fired, and the entire Liao army soldiers fell, but more Liao cavalry filled the original gap.

Life is relentlessly harvested by musket pellets. Ming musketeers spotted. The speed of his own shooting was far from keeping up with the speed at which the soldiers of the Liao army could fill in.

The distance is slowly approaching with human life.

Chai Rong on the city wall began to get nervous, cold sweat slowly oozing out, soaking his back, he turned his head to look at Baili Wuji, only to see Baili Wuji's face blank, and he couldn't see whether his heart was happy or sad.

Although Chai Rong did not know how to command the musketeers to fight, he knew that as long as the Liao cavalry approached the musketeers. That was the end of the musketeers.

The trench outside the west gate of Qianzhou City was originally deployed with 5,000 musketeers, and before the battle, Baili Wuji drew 5,000 musketeers from the city wall of the north gate to enrich the trench outside the west gate. But even if there are 10,000 people. Compared with the attacking Liao army, it is just a mantis arm blocking the car.

Although Chai Rong had the intention to persuade him, he looked at Baili Wuji with a blank face, and finally swallowed back the words of persuasion.

In fact, Chai Rong was right to worry, after the musketeers fired five rounds, the Liao cavalry had already approached the distance of five zhang. That's only the time you can shoot twice.

But at this time, the musketeers began to move, they put the thorns on the barrels of the muskets, turned around, turned their backs to the Liao army, leaned their bodies against the trenches, kicked their feet on the opposite side, held the guns in front and back with both hands, and pointed the spears obliquely at the sky.

Chai Rong on the city wall was stunned, what is this for.

In fact, Baili Wuji is also nervous in his heart, after all, it is the first time that the battle between the military stab and the Liao cavalry on the musket is still the first time, and Baili Wuji does not know what the situation will turn into.

The Ming army suddenly disappeared from the horizon, which overwhelmed the Liao cavalry who were charging, they knew that the Ming soldiers must be shrinking in the trench, but they didn't understand why they were shrinking, weren't they afraid of being besieged and losing the battle?

The distance of five zhang didn't have time to think about anything, and the Liao cavalry didn't pay attention to these Ming soldiers who were cowering in the trenches, and stepped over the heads of the Ming soldiers in the trenches with a roar, approaching the west gate of Qianzhou City.

But at a distance of twenty zhang from the city gate, he again suffered a volley of Ming musketeers in the mezzanine of the city wall.

The western city wall was interspersed with 10,000 musketeers, who spewed angry flames from their muskets at the incoming Liao army from their small battlements.

The Liao cavalry began to shoot arrows at the battlements and the city wall, but the battlements were too small to be aimed at at all, and Baili Wuji and Chai Rong on the city wall had already gone down the city wall when the Liao cavalry broke through the trenches.

Although the Liao cavalry attacked the city gate, they were at a loss, did not hit the door and kept up, looking at the city gate, there was nothing to do.

The most terrible thing is that the small battlements of the city wall are still endlessly spitting flames, knocking down one Liao soldier after another.

At this moment, 10,000 musketeers, who had been cowering in the trench, suddenly jumped up from the trench one mile from the city gate and rushed towards the west gate.

The shape of the battlefield is changing rapidly, and Yelu Qixi, who was watching the battle from afar, was excited that the Liao cavalry had attacked the city gate, but he was annoyed that he did not expect to attack the city gate so smoothly and did not carry siege equipment. When the Ming army, which was cowering in the trench, suddenly jumped out of the trench and charged the Liao cavalry who were hovering outside the city gate, he shouted, "It's not good."

Yelu Qixi immediately ordered to send another 30,000 Liao cavalry to the rescue.

But at this time, 10,000 musketeers had already rushed to the blocked Liao army with their military spurs and started hand-to-hand combat.

This wave of 30,000 Liao cavalry has plummeted by forty percent from being blocked by muskets in the trenches to rushing to the city wall and being named by the musketeers inside the city wall. And now it is even more attacked from the front and back, and for a while, there are heavy casualties. The musketeers hiding in the city walls didn't even need to aim, they shot directly at people, and occasionally the Liao cavalry stabbed the knife into the battlement, which was also lightly flashed by the musketeers, and then shot at the outside of the hole, which must have been shot through.

At the city gate, the Ming army rose up, but the reinforcements of the Liao army in the distance rushed in.

Baili Wuji and Chai Rong had already moved to the mezzanine of the city wall to observe the battlefield situation, and when Yelu Qixi ordered the second wave of 30,000 Liao cavalry to step forward for reinforcements, Baili Wuji knew that these 10,000 musketeers were afraid that they would not be able to keep it.

That's what the battlefield is, you know you're going to wipe out the whole army, but you have to do it for the sake of victory. Baili Wuji knew the outcome of these 10,000 musketeers from the first wave of Liao army attacks, and even knew from the time when 5,000 musketeers from the north gate were transferred to supplement them, but he had to do it.
