Chapter 112: The Defeat of the Soldiers (Three Watches for Collection, Tickets)

The infantry battle formation of the Ming army advanced slowly, and the soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder, holding blood-stained spears. The projector also followed, and it only took a small amount of effort for the simple projector to start firing. Under this unusually fierce and ferocious blow, the Qing army became more and more chaotic, more and more frightened, and more and more desperate.

With a "boom" explosion, rubble flew sideways, some Qing soldiers fell to the ground without even making a sound, and those who were affected were also injured and disabled, and the painful howls of a large number of people rang out at the same time.

"The Qing army was defeated, defeated, the flag fell, and the line Guoan fled." With bursts of shouts, the last trace of fighting spirit of the Qing army dissipated in an instant, and the Qing soldiers who were frightened by the explosion had no time to distinguish the real from the fake, stepped on the bloody flesh and stumps on the ground, turned around and fled.

"Lao Tzu is here, undefeated, undefeated. Retreat the latter and chop, chop. Xian Guoan screamed under the banner, and had to calm the restless war horse, his eyes were blood-red, and he slashed at the defeated soldiers who rushed over with his sword.

"Boom, boom!" Two loud noises suppressed the howl of the line Guoan, and the war horse neighed and almost ran away.

"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who abandon their weapons will not die!" The shouts rose again, as if to declare the ownership of victory.

The defeated soldiers continued to flee, just walking around the flag, and no one looked at the line Guoan, who wanted them to die in vain.

The infantry of the Ming army did not pursue exhaustively, and the battle formation still advanced unhurriedly, the soldiers were closely arranged, and the swords and guns were as dense as a jungle, mercilessly slashing the Qing soldiers who were wounded and fell to the ground. And every time the distance of more than 20 meters from the Qing army stopped, after a while, the Ming army would project a few shells after the battle formation. The loud noise and explosion pushed the Qing army backwards like a duck, faster and faster, and the banner of offline national security was getting closer and closer.

"Admiral, let's go!" The captain of the personal guard grabbed the angry line Guoan, and shouted with a cry: "If you don't leave, it's too late, the thunder of the Ming army is about to bombard." ”

"Boom!" With an explosion, there were only more than thirty meters left from the banner of Line Guoan, and the strong flash of light made Line Guoan's eyes black for a while, and it took a few seconds to recover.

"Defeated, really defeated, in fact, already defeated." The line country sighed with peace of mind, and took a look at the battlefield of the dead and wounded, and suddenly pulled the horse's head and galloped away.

The banner fell, and the Qing army was defeated. Bai Wenxuan, the king of Zhao, had already climbed a wall that had not been blown up, and had always observed the development of the battle situation. Seeing that the banner of the line Guoan was dragging backwards and fleeing, he immediately changed the banner continuously, and used gongs and drums to give orders to the cavalry outside the camp and the infantry inside the camp respectively.

"It's our turn." Ma Baofei, the king of Ruyang, got on his horse, raised his iron spear, and took the lead in galloping out, and thousands of cavalry followed closely behind, rushing towards the Qing army camp.

Zhu Yongxing saw that the cavalry had moved, and let out a long breath lightly, although the situation of the battle was different from the previous two times, and he did not dare to use the war elephant easily, but the victory was decided! With a sweep of his eyes, he saw Ma Zide beside him with an impatient look on his face, impatiently comforting the somewhat restless war horse sitting down.

"With force, you follow the cavalry pursuit." Zhu Yongxing smiled faintly, stretched out his hand, and teased: "Don't go back empty-handed, but lose face!" ”

Ma Zide was overjoyed, arched his hand to Zhu Yongxing, and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, the last general will capture the flag and present it to His Highness in front of the horse." After speaking, he reined in his horse's head and followed the cavalry who entered the village.

"You-" Zhu Yongxing turned to Yang Guoxiang and wanted to say that he should also go to get some military merits, but Yang Guoxiang had already shook his head quickly and said, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm just guarding the safety of His Highness." ”

……………

The rain seemed to be a little lighter, but on the galloping horse, the rhythm of the raindrops hitting the face was faster. Xian Guoan's ears were still buzzing, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and the Qing soldiers who fled on foot were left behind one by one, in groups, and he didn't even bother to glance at them.

Defeated, deservedly defeated, defeated without suspense, just persevered for a little longer. If you give yourself another chance – and there's still no way to crack it, that's the really sad thing.

The Han army in his hands was almost wiped out, and he had never suffered a fiasco in his life. Line Guoan could no longer see the soldiers fleeing on foot on the road, only the non-dense sound of horses' hooves in front of and behind him. Remorse immediately welled up in his heart, causing him to bite his lip.

It's just that this remorse is quite complicated, obviously not one or two. He regretted that he took the initiative to ask for help in Kunming, and wanted to use his military exploits to reduce his responsibility; He regretted that after the Ming army abandoned the gray slope, he changed the plan of taking a detour to Songshan and Longling to attack Tengchong; He regretted that when he was blocked by the Ming army in the mountains and forests, he stubbornly gritted his teeth and insisted; He regretted that he still had to march to Tengchong despite the fact that there were many injuries; He regretted his indecision, and if he had made an early decision between the Daniel Zhang retreat plan and his own detour, it would have been no worse than now......

A salty smell poured into his throat, and Xian Guoan had bitten his lip unconsciously. Providence, fortune, I have made so many mistakes, can failure be avoided? Suddenly, Xian Guoan only felt that his body leaned over, and he was thinking crankily and was defenseless, and fell down violently with the horse's hoof.

His head hit the ground heavily, splashing muddy water on his face, even with the protection of his helmet, Xian Guoan was also dizzy, and he didn't react to what was going on for a while. Several of the guards behind him were so close that they didn't have time to rein in their horses, and they all stumbled and rolled to the ground.

"Admiral, my lord." The guards behind hurriedly reined in the horse's head, shouting and dismounting.

A volley of pike darts suddenly shot out of the jungle beside the roadside, cutting through the rain curtain and bringing with it the coldness of death, and another scream.

"Enemy attack, there is an ambush." The Qing soldiers exclaimed, jumped off their horses, looked around nervously, and waved their swords and guns as protection.

A row of pike darts only hit three Qing soldiers and two horses, but it was a heavy psychological blow to the fleeing Qing soldiers who were already frightened birds.

When it is strong, it is avoided, and when it is weak, it is attacked. This is the principle that Zhu Yongxing set for the Mengshan Ke people who were responsible for disturbing along the road. In layman's terms, it is to bully the soft and fear the hard. In fact, this tactic does not need to be taught, how to practice, according to instinct, no one will hit the wall with their heads, and they will not challenge the army with a few people and find their own death.

Of course, during this period of raiding and harassing operations, the strong and native soldiers of the Mengshan Ke tribe also suffered a lot of casualties due to the harsh environment and battle damage. This time, Zhu Yongxing counterattacked, and there was no way to inform them to go all out to intercept and block the attack. These people are completely spontaneous, or habitually pull on tripping ropes, put on crossbows and pikes, and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack and kill the enemy.

A small accident can sometimes have a big impact, although the sneak attack did not kill many enemies, but it slowed down the pace of escape of the line Guoan and others, and bought time for the pursuing Ming army.
