The wilderness was littered with corpses, buzzing flies were flying, and the artillery of the banner camp that had once been raging was abandoned in front of the Qing army camp like scrap metal. In addition, those Green Flag soldiers who had no time to escape were escorted by groups of three or five, squatting on the ground with their hands tied and looking at the victor in front of them with panicked eyes.

At this time, surrounded by the guards and the cheers of the Zheng officers and soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield, Zheng Kezhang slowly walked through the messy battlefield and entered the abandoned Qing army camp. Shanahai's body was already placed at the entrance, looking at the short body of the Manchurian veteran, Zheng Kezang nodded indifferently, and his own attendants transported it away and buried it.

"Run fast." Inspecting the mountains of warehouses, Zheng Kezhang said lightly. "It's cheaper, it's lonely." Speaking of this joke that is not funny, Zheng Kezhang pointed to Jingzhou City in the distance. "Let's go, don't let your parents wait"

Zheng Kezhang and his entourage slowly approached the Yinbin Gate in Jingzhou East City, hundreds of Jingzhou officials and gentry downstairs in Binyang had already been waiting there, as soon as they saw Zheng Kezang's Wang Qi approaching, all the hulala knelt down, and the Jingzhou prefect held the tray in his hand high above his head, and the tray was placed with the seal of the Jingzhou prefect to show his dedication to the city.

"Gaofutai!" Zheng Kezhang ordered the Great Seal to be confiscated, and at the same time looked at the Qing soldiers who were held outside the city walls, and those who tried to escape into Jingzhou unsuccessfully and were being pursued by the Qing army. "Protecting a city in Jingzhou from being slaughtered by soldiers is not bad, so I will temporarily maintain the city of Jingzhou in the next few days, cooperate with the military supplies, and prepare to make up for it."

Gao Deyi breathed a long sigh of relief, his body softened, and then he straightened up, and knocked respectfully: "The sinner knocks on King Xia and does not kill Hong En, the sinner will definitely atone for his sins to maintain the stability of Jingzhou Mansion City, and once the army is in need, the sinner should also be worshipped." ”

"Remember not to extort from the people." Dropping this sentence, Zheng Kezhang drove his horse, and under the guidance of the guards, he passed through the Jingzhou gentry who were kneeling on the ground, and walked towards the city. "Demolished the city for loneliness"

Two hours after Zheng Kezhang entered Jingzhou, on the field on the north bank of the Manhe River, two oncoming teams were already fighting. One of them was nearly 10,000 Qing troops from Kazhu and Guo Shijie, who hurried to the north, and the other side was a new army of 15,000 new annexed troops led by Yue Shenglong who surrendered to Zheng Qing in De'an, Suizhou, Xiangfan and other places. On the one hand, the master is not stopped, and on the other side, he has just taken refuge in the new master and wants to show his strength, so the battle situation is very tragic from the beginning.

"Put!" At the sound of an order, hundreds of bird guns struck first, and in the smoke of gunpowder, countless soldiers who rushed forward were hit by flying lead and iron sand. Although the lethality of the bird gun is too small, it is still enough to kill when it hits key points such as the front door. Even if you don't hit the key parts, you can make the opponent lose your combat effectiveness. However, the Bird Gun is the standard equipment of the Green Battalion, so after this side fires, it is natural that the other side will return color.

Seeing that the opponent had more birds, Guo Shijie's troops immediately unleashed the artillery they brought. The artillery of the Green Battalion is naturally the same as the Dagong and the Great Buddha Lang machine, and the firing range is limited and the number is not large, so although it creates an artificial hole in the opponent's dense camp, it cannot break the opponent's will to fight at all. Soon, the melee fighters on both sides collided, and the newly opened artillery immediately became a useless burden.

"Kill!" In the shouting of killing, you stabbed me in the stomach with a shot, I slashed you in the head, and the two sides, mainly unarmored soldiers, exchanged casualties in an almost one-to-one ratio, and the rice fields that should have been watered by the river were full of stinking human blood, and the corpses of the pillows told the most unfortunate scene in the world.

"These dead traitors who fight for tigers can really fight." Looking at the scene of fierce fighting in front of him, Yuan Boxiong, the general of the Wuchang City garrison, spat and asked Yue Shenglong, the commander next to him, to fight. "Junmen, let the lowly department attack." Although Yuan Boxiong has the merit of dedicating Fancheng, it is still far from Hu Naili's killing of Gartu Diding Xiangyang, so he naturally wants to show his heart. "The humble position will definitely take Guo Shijie's rank for you."

"It's okay for the Wuchang battalion to fight, but General Yuan, how are you going to fight?"

Yue Shenglong asked Yuan Boxiong with this, how to fight, of course, it was to join the key front and become the last straw to press the opponent, but such a point of view was not recognized by Yue Shenglong.

"Laizhou Town's combat power is not weak, how do you know that you are the last thrust?"

Yuan Boxiong didn't know how to respond, so he had to bow his head and say, "Please teach the military gate!" ”

"See, the left flank is the flag battalion." Yue Shenglong pointed with the horsewhip in his hand. "You beat this official at the flag camp!"

Yuan Boxiong also fought on the battlefield of the pacification of the three feudatories, although he was only a small general at that time, but the old foundation of the banner camp still knew, so as soon as he heard Yue Shenglong's instructions, he immediately understood it, and after answering, he rushed over with more than 1,000 of his people.

In fact, Yue Shenglong guessed correctly, the Jingqi of Kazhu was indeed the weakest link of the Qing army. Speaking of which, the Kaju Department can also be regarded as the elite of the Beijing Banner, and the departments are equipped with well-textured cotton armor. However, due to the hot weather, these flag soldiers did not wear all the armor, let alone imitate their predecessors in double or triple cotton armor. Since most people don't wear armor, they naturally can't take advantage of armor, and they naturally suffer the same casualties in the bloody casualty swaps. This kind of tragic scene could not have been endured by the Eight Banners soldiers who were accustomed to enjoying it in the city of Beijing, and the previous stubborn resistance was only a rebound after being forced to no end, and once the blood and courage disappeared for a while, the morale of the Banner Battalion melted away like an Arctic iceberg with a tropical vision.

Guo Shijie actually saw the movement of the flag battalion very clearly, but his strength was far inferior to that of his opponent, so he could only send the last hundreds of reserves to reinforce the left flank, originally hoping to strengthen the strength of the flag battalion, but he never thought that Yue Shenglong also saw the advantage and sent the Wuchang battalion, a new force.

"Kill!" Yuan Boxiong, wielding a red tassel spear, rode on a horse and rushed into the left flank of the Qing army, and an armored leader in front of him tried to block it, but was stabbed to death under the horse by a shot. Yuan Boxiong immediately shook the body of the gun, and the head of the gun was immediately pulled out of the opponent's throat, and then swept away, forcing back the forward school and the horse armor that were close to the front of the siege.

Since the main general is so brave, the thousands of soldiers and even ordinary soldiers behind him are naturally high-spirited, and they are roaring to kill the banner soldiers who have almost no fighting spirit. Receiving such a fierce blow from the enemy's fresh force, the already fearless bannermen immediately collapsed, abandoned their opponents and fled. It didn't matter if the flag soldiers fled like this, Guo Shijie's reinforcements were exposed at that time, and they were surrounded and killed by the new annexed troops that swarmed in.

Hearing the screams of the Laizhou town soldiers, the dejected flag soldiers fled faster, because people have a herd mentality, the flag soldiers who only want to flee to the rear of their own people led the pursuing new annex army to first crush their own Chinese army, and then even Guo Shijie as the last reserve of the war team was also dispersed.

"It's over, it's over!" Guo Shijie thumped his chest, and at this time, the soldiers around him didn't care about saying anything, they only knew that they were surrounding him and fled into the distance.

The escape of the general flag led to an avalanche on the front line, and the soldiers of Laizhou Town, who could no longer support it, fled one after another, and those who did not have time to escape had to kneel and beg to surrender, but they were killed one by one by the new annex army with great murder, and the tragic situation could not be repeated.

"Lord Yue, there is no law of cutting merit in this domain." Hao Jianjun, who was behind Yue Shenglong, said with a flickering eye. "And the lower officials think that they are pursuing it now, so as not to let Guo and Ka have a chance to breathe."

"If there is no Lord Hao to remind the official, I will almost make a mistake." Yue Shenglong pretentiously increased the amount with his palm, and then ordered: "Come on, pass on the order of the official general, those who surrender will not die, and then send someone to inform the commanders of each battalion to immediately dispatch capable people and pursue them, don't let the Qing prisoners have a chance to reorganize, and seize Guo Shijie and the Kazhu officer to be promoted to the third level!" ”

"Master Guo," Guo Shijie, who had finally escaped from the chaos, happened to meet Kazhu, who was also a wolf, as if he had seen his relatives, and Kazhu wept bitterly and asked for advice with anxiety. "Now what are we going to do!"

"Take it off!" Guo Shijie said while taking off his armor. "You must not go south, going south is also a dead end, for today's plan is only to go west first, cross Wudang Mountain, and go to Shaanxi."

Kazhu followed the stripping and lamented: "I don't know what the court will do with us!" ”

Guo Shijie looked at Kazhu hatefully, if it weren't for the incompetence of the banner soldiers, the battle might not have been lost, but now it's useless to say this, keeping Kazhu, the deputy commander, is equivalent to saving his own life, so he said perfunctorily: "I don't care about the court's disposal now, it's already a fluke to survive." ”

Because they were not prepared to escape at all, the two of them had no change of clothes, so they had to turn over and get back on their horses in their white underwear, and led the remaining ten or so guards of the two to hurriedly flee westward, and soon disappeared from the sight of the crowd, but let the remaining thousands of remnants who had lost their command either die or be captured.

"Good news to Xiangyang." Yue Sheng Longzhi ordered proudly, although he did not capture Ka Zhu and Guo Shijie, but killing 2,000 enemies and capturing 5,000 was also a big victory, and he could fill in another stroke on his already strong enough merit department, thinking that the earl was stable, and the marquis might have hope.

Fortunately, Yue Shenglong was still relatively sober, and after a while, he remembered the task given by Lin Sheng, so he asked Hao Jianjun on the side: "By the way, Lord Hao, let's continue to go south next?" ”

"Counting it, the camp in the south of the town should already know that we have taken Xiangfan." Hao Jianjun shook his head. "We still have thousands of drags in our hands, and we are powerless to resist tens of thousands of enemies, so it is better to return north to Yicheng and hold on, so as to echo our army in Xiangyang."

Yue Shenglong also wanted to accept it when he saw it, and as soon as he heard what the prison army said, he immediately responded: "Then according to what Lord Hao said"
