Besides, Zeng Dare, seeing Li Xin's corporal slowly moving forward and going straight to Tartar, he suddenly felt his blood boiling. Previously, he had only seen the Ming official army being chased everywhere by the Tartars, how could he ever see the Ming army that dared to take the initiative to attack? If the officers and soldiers stationed in their own county had not abandoned the city and fled, and if the Ming army passing north could help them, they and the people of this county would not have been ruined and displaced.

He felt that he had to do something, and as he hesitated, a soldier from Li Xin's side ran to him and handed him a wooden sign.

"This is what we taught me to send me."

Zeng dared to wonder why these people called Li Xin to teach Xi, but the enemy didn't have time to think about it at the moment, and took the wooden sign, only to see six big red characters written crookedly on it.

"Organizing the People to Cheer"

The six big characters made Zeng dare suddenly enlightened, at this time there were no less than 10,000 people gathered in this place, if they organized to follow General Li with a strong voice, the Tartars might be so frightened that they fled without a fight.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, please listen to Zeng Dare to say a word......"

Once he dared to speak, he seemed to have a lot of weight in front of these natives, and after Li Xin came to this conclusion from observation, he asked him to help coordinate the people. At this time, Li Xin has already planned to fight a quick battle, and if time drags on, it will only become more and more unfavorable to them, in case the army of Tartars nearby arrives when they hear the news, the advantage they have worked so hard to gain will be gone, and even whether they can retreat with their whole body is in doubt, let alone take away these poor Ming people.

Facts have proved that Li Xin's speculation was right, and Zeng Dare did not disappoint him. The people have always had the heart of conformity, and everything needs a person to take the lead, and after daring to be this leader, first those who were familiar with him and hundreds of people who had suffered together for several days shouted, and took the lead in standing behind the right team of Li Xin's muskets, and then marched together. As he moved forward, he still shouted with a dare to hiss:

"Kill the Tartars, get revenge!"

As soon as the six words were shouted, everyone who heard them was full of blood, and I would like to ask which of the people present did not have a blood feud with the Tartars? Once this kind of sentiment appeared, it spread among the people like a plague.

"Kill the Tartars, get revenge!"

The sound of shouting and killing is actually higher than one Lang, from a hundred to a thousand with one voice, until ten thousand with one voice, just like the sea Lang, one Lang is higher than one Lang, and one Lang covers one Lang. But in the blink of an eye, the whole valley was boiling.

Even the soldiers of the right team of muskets were deeply infected, and unconsciously followed the four roars.

"Kill the Tartars, get revenge!"

As the sound rang out, the right side of the musket advanced step by step, and the Tartar armor seemed to be under pressure as a result, and the scope of the commotion was even greater. The cavalry, which had been roaming the perimeter, tried to maintain order, but were soon caught up in the middle and could not escape.

The Tartars were finally in disarray.

Li Xin still counted step by step, ninety steps, one hundred steps, one hundred and ten steps...... Fifty paces, when Li Xin counted fifty steps, he blew the whistle in his mouth, and the sentry officers immediately ordered the soldiers of their own sentry to stop, find the team, and rearrange into three horizontal columns.

When the right team of muskets was in a mess, Li Xin did not wait for them to line up in three columns, but directly ordered the soldiers in charge of the flag to wave the command flag, and all of them stood up and fired!

The musketeers gave up and regrouped, pressed the fire rope according to the process, raised their guns, aimed, the captain honked his horn, pulled the trigger....... hundreds of projectiles were fired into the Tartar array with the roars of the people.

At the same time, the thick smoke of gunpowder spread across the battlefield, obscuring people and things.

Li Xin pulled out the Yanling knife on his waist, raised his arms and shouted: "Put away the gun, draw the knife!" Rush with me! ”

This time, Li Xin did not follow the team and count the steps, but rushed out first, Zhang Shi felt that it was inappropriate and wanted to stop Li Xin, but he was a step too late. Li Xin, as the leader of an army, cannot make any mistakes, and once there is an accident, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Not to be outdone, the people rushed up, and most of them were bare-handed as they had dared to do, and they all rushed to the front, some of them even rushed to the front of the right team of muskets.

For a time, it was impossible to distinguish who was the army and who was the people on the entire battlefield. This situation made Li Xin think of a word, all the people are soldiers!

The people can be sheep to be slaughtered, but they can also be wolves besieging their prey, the key is whether they have a firm mind, just as the people at this time cry out for revenge in their hearts and actions.

The tragic death of their relatives and the inhuman abuse they have encountered for several days have erupted irrepressibly after Li Xin gave them a suitable breakthrough. No one can stop their outburst at this moment!

The right musket team was still advancing step by step in an orderly manner, but the common people were not, they thought the officers and soldiers were walking too slowly, and jumped over one by one. By some point, they had added hoes, machetes, axes, and even wooden sticks, and everything that could be used to hit qiē was put to good use.

The right team of muskets of only 300 men was instantly submerged in the crowd, swinging with Lang like a light boat......

The morale of the Tartar armor soldiers had fallen to the bottom, and their own families were in chaos again, and in the face of the people of the Ming Dynasty who were roaring like a sea of mountains, they didn't know whether to resist or flee immediately. They were completely stunned, an hour ago they were driven away like cattle and horses of the Ming Dynasty people, at this moment they pounced on the people who had driven them like wolves, and the sudden change of identity made many people unable to turn this corner, and their actions were much slower.

With such a delay, it was too late to withdraw from the valley. The enraged people finally swept over like a fierce tide. Machetes, axes, hoes, and blade-wielding armoured soldiers are against the slightest tribal disadvantage!

After all, it was the outnumber of people who had an absolute advantage, and the red-eyed people rushed over from all directions, and the Tartar armor soldiers had no power to fight back. The first unlucky is the armor soldier standing on the very edge, even if the individual is brave, after all, it is difficult to defeat the four hands, all kinds of weapons beckoned, and they are immediately smashed to the ground, and the flesh and blood are blurred.

Then there was a melee without any tactical formation, without any command routine, and the Tartar armor soldiers were able to parry a few times with their sharp weapons at first, but as the melee unfolded, even the steel knives were slashed, and as soon as a hoe was opened, an axe was already slashed on the body without warning......

An hour later, the sun sank into the distant horizon completely, the north wind swept by, and the snowflakes whirred and fell. The enraged people finally calmed down, and the valley was filled with blood, but after all, not a single Tartar could stand alive.

Nearly a thousand Tartars were slashed and killed, and the whole army was wiped out, and the same people killed a thousand enemies and lost two thousand, or even more, and each Tartar corpse had at least one or two civilian corpses lying next to it.

Zeng dared to survive this **-style battle, he killed two Tartars with his own hands, Yin Hong's blood stained his single clothes, and he could even clearly feel that his hands were still trembling. After the great victory, there was no expected cheer, and there was no joy in the total annihilation of the Tartars.

On the battlefield, there was intermittent choking and crying.

Li Xinjiang dared to call Zeng to his side and told him of his decision. Who knew that he dared to shake his head. "By no means, if the general leaves, won't these tens of thousands of people just get out of the tiger's mouth and fall into the wolf's den again?"

Tens of thousands of people gathered together The goal is too huge, and it is certainly a coincidence that the total annihilation of the Tartars today is also because these people are two Tartars whose morale is not strong, and the previous actions have disturbed their military morale. If a Tartar heard the news and rushed to come, so many old, weak, sick and disabled people gathered together, it would be simply a group of moving targets to be slashed and killed.

Seeing that Li Xin didn't speak, he further said: "General Li, the brave warriors of the people today are vividly remembered, why don't you incorporate these people into an army to fight against the Tartars!" ”

Zeng Dare's idea is good, but after all, the people are not a unified recruitment and training army, and the hastily gathered together is just a rabble, and in the end, when they meet the Tartars, it will also increase casualties.

"Brother Zeng, after all, the people have completely annihilated these Tartars with a moment of blood, you look at the side of these Tartar corpses, how many Ming people are there?"

It is an indisputable fact that the people were killed and injured several times more than the Tartars. It was only with their advantage in numbers and morale that they won such a disastrous situation, and it was really unknown whether they would be able to win if they met the real Tartars.

Li Xin struck while the iron was hot: "When the people are free, they should immediately stay away from the battlefield, except for the soldiers who must replenish the supplies, you can take the rest of the goods." ”

Indeed, there were many cotton clothes among the goods plundered by the Tartars, which saved him a lot of trouble.

"We must leave overnight, without delay, and go to the southwest, where the Tartar soldiers should not have arrived. Zeng Dare, you have to lead the people over the Taihang Mountain to Shanxi. The terrain of Shanxi is complicated, and the Tartars will not go. It's only when you get there that you're really safe. Do you understand? ”

Zeng dared to have a pair of eyes flickering in the light of the fire, and it wasn't until Li Xin asked him that he reacted.

"The general really doesn't plan to recruit these civilians to fight the Tartars?"

Li Xin sighed: "It's not that I don't want to, but that if I adopt them, it will be tantamount to harming them." ”

After that, Li Xin pointed to a group of people sitting around the fire, children sobbing softly, old people sighing, and injured young men moaning in pain.

"They need protection, and if I take them away, what will happen to these people? Zeng Dare, you must know that killing Tartars is not the purpose of our generation, and it is our ultimate goal to let the people have no worries about food and clothing. Zeng dared to be silent again.

Li Xin read something from Zeng Kang's eyes that made him uneasy, but it was only a flash, because Zeng Kang soon stopped insisting and promised Li Xin to take the people to Shanxi.

After collecting enough cotton clothes and grain, the Gaoyang army decided to immediately advance eastward and go to Hejian Province, where there was a granary hoarded by the Ming court, from which Dolgon would inevitably transfer grain, Li Xin decided to go there and wait for the opportunity to give the Tartars another hard blow.
