When he was in a hurry, evil was born from his guts, and he ordered thousands of crossbowmen in front of him to fire immediately and shoot indiscriminately at the shield array.

But Gao Zhengli obviously forgot that it was the shield he transferred himself, and it was he himself who pushed thousands of shield soldiers to the front line to resist the fire of the Ming army's muskets.

The shield is effective against musket fire, and the musket bullets cannot penetrate the heavy shield.

However, the direction of the shield protection was the position of the Ming army in the east, and at this time the Ming army was already stuck with the shield soldiers.

The arrows of the Gao crossbowmen were densely fired into this area, while the shield soldiers had their backs to the crossbowmen, and the Ming soldiers were facing the crossbowmen.

What's more, because the Ming soldiers abandoned their muskets and did not have heavy armor on their bodies, when they saw the enemy's bows and crossbows and arrows coming, their first reaction was to hide behind the standing shield in reverse, and used the body of the shield soldier as the best cover.

However, the shield soldiers hold their shields in pairs, and it is not easy to turn around at 180 degrees, or turn at 90 degrees.

In this case, the consequences can be imagined.

The indiscriminate shooting invisibly turned into a one-sided massacre of the Gao army's shield soldiers' own people.

Gao Zhengli reacted quite quickly, and seeing that the situation was not right, he immediately ordered to stop shooting, but in this instant, the crossbowman had already completed two volleys.

At least half of the 4,000 shield soldiers died under the arrows of their own men, while the casualties of the Ming soldiers were negligible.

At the moment when Gao Zhengli ordered to stop shooting, the soldiers of the 800 Ming Army launched a forced assault.

The so-called forced assault was because the Ming soldiers had no armor to hide. There is a distance of about seven or eight zhang between the shield array and the bow and crossbow array, and in this distance, the Ming army has nothing to dodge the arrows.

Bow salvo. It only takes a breath to breathe in from the time the order is given to the moment it is fired, but if the shot is forcibly interrupted, the crossbowman will slowly release the full string, which takes much more force and slower time than pulling the bowstring.

Yang Ting's order to assault was not that he knew how to seize this opportunity, but that the rout behind him came up again. Yang Tingshi knew that if he lost the shield soldiers as a barrier, he would be mixed in with the rout. If Gao Zhengli shoots indiscriminately again, then the 800 Ming army will undoubtedly become 800 hedgehogs.

Instead of waiting to die, it is better to fight to the death. Out of this thought. The eight hundred Ming army exerted their strength to sprint desperately for this distance of seven or eight zhang.

Gao Zhengli was very annoyed by his on-the-spot performance today, he had just made a stern mistake and shot half of his thousands of shield soldiers, and now because of the sudden interruption of shooting, he gave the Ming army a chance to break through.

At this time, Gao Zhengli saw the Ming army charge, and he regretted it in his heart and ordered to stop shooting.

Since you're already half dead, why not make a mistake. Killing anyone in this area who can breathe is not as passive as it is now.

After the shield array, there were no more infantry and cavalry that could move forward to resist the charge of the Ming army. There were only 8,000 crossbowmen on standby, and even if they gave the order to shoot at this time, it was too late to block the approach of the Ming army.

A crossbowman approached by an enemy is a lamb to the slaughter, like a shield soldier when approached by an enemy.

Gao Zhengli was in a hurry, lost the car to protect the commander, and ordered the crossbowmen to gather in the center, while he himself led dozens of guards to flee to the north gate.

If this scene is seen by the high-ranking spirit in the sky, he will definitely scold.

More than 10,000 troops were dragged by 800 enemies for more than an hour, and now, not only did they lose their troops, but Gao Zhengli, as the main general, abandoned nearly 10,000 soldiers under his command and fled.

Not only is this a big joke, but it really doesn't seem like something that Gao Zhengli can do.

Gao Zhengli has been in the military for decades, is he a reckless man who doesn't know the army and doesn't know the soldiers?

In fact, Gao Zhengli only capsized in the gutter, or was only shocked by the sudden fall from the sky by Yang Ting's style, and attacked tentatively with a small number of troops in chaos, and was completely wiped out by the Ming army's musket array.

This further aggravated Gao Zhengli's prudence, so he dispatched Lidun to achieve the goal of the Ming army's delay.

And if it weren't for the sudden arrival of the rout at the East Gate, and Yang Tingshi would not have been arrogant enough to attack the enemy's tens of thousands of troops with 800 people, then it would not have been possible for the Gao Zhengli Department to reach this point anyway.

If Gao Zhengli can be ruthless and abandon the 4,000 shield soldiers, he can also bury the 800 Ming army, but the ending is often between people's thoughts.

When the Ming army charged from the shield array, the end was already doomed.

The Ming army with grenades is undoubtedly a sharp knife in assault operations, and it is not something that crossbowmen can resist at all, and the so-called wolf into the flock is this reason.

Gao Zhengli's decision is actually correct, if he does not flee at this time, then he will wait to become a prisoner or die in the chaos.

Gao Zhengli still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, that is, there are still his 20,000 troops at the North Gate, as long as he can return to the North Gate alive, Gao Zhengli has a good ideal, so he will take the 20,000 troops to break through to the west, go to the Qilan Department first, and after getting supplies, take root and grow on the border between Dali and Tianzhu, in order to plan for the future.

It's a pity that Gao Zhengli didn't expect that the three evil gods who broke through the east gate would let him slip away so easily.

After the three of Bailiyi broke through the east gate, only Bailiyi led the army to pursue the rout from behind, and Bailikang and Sun Shixu led the army from the east gate to the south and the north gate respectively.

Gao Zhengli is also dead.

No one can say exactly how he died, but Bai Likang explained that Gao Zhengli saw that the defeat was certain, and committed suicide in anger.

But Bai Liyi and Sun Shixu didn't believe it, because it was impossible for someone who could leave an army of 10,000 people to flee for their lives.

But neither of them said it, because they knew that there were some things that they could only think about, not say.

After this battle, tens of thousands of defeated soldiers escaped from the West Gate, and this group of defeated soldiers later fled to the border of Tianzhu, becoming the famous Liukou, known as the "Salamadi Army", at its strongest, more than 30,000 soldiers.

Its leader is said to be Gao Zhisheng, the son of Gao Zhengli.

Until many years later, it was defeated by the Ming vassal state "Tubo King" Zhao Kuangyin led an army of 80,000, and then decayed until it was silent.

The end of the First World War of Tengchong represented the basic unification of the entire East Asian continent by the Ming Kingdom.

And Baili Wuji in Jinling Mansion is accepting concubines, and the emergency military report thousands of miles away has presented a generous gift to the concubine of Baili Wuji.

Gao Foyin was canonized as a "concubine".

After that, Gao Sicong was canonized as the "King of Dali", and so far, the eight prefectures, four counties, and three towns of Dali were officially incorporated into the Ming Kingdom. (To be continued......)
