The rebels on the south side of the road took a defensive position, lined up without attacking, and waited for the Fujian official army to come forward, while the remnants of the Sichuan army were defeated at this time, but they followed behind the Fujian official army at this time, and were not used as cannon fodder by Yu Xiaotian on the battlefield.

The morale of these Sichuan soldiers is very low, and the quality of the equipment is also very poor, even if they get a certain amount of supplementation from him, but it is just to meet each of them with a weapon, these Sichuan soldiers, after a defeat, are now almost the same as calling Hanako, which makes people feel pitiful when they look at it.

Yu Xiaotian is not hard-hearted, these people left their hometown and came here from thousands of miles away in Sichuan, working for the imperial court, and the officials also defrauded them everywhere, deducting their food and salary, whether they were full of food and clothing, whether they were soldiers or not, but Yu Xiaotian treated them as inappropriate people and forced them to die, this kind of thing Yu Xiaotian still disdained to do.

So after he returned to the camp last night, he saw the deputy general Wang Hong, and waited for him in the camp with a stammering face.

So he promised Wang Hong that he would not treat the remnants of the defeated soldiers under his command as consumables and put them on the battlefield as cannon fodder, but also asked Wang Hong to restrain his subordinates, strictly enforce military discipline, and not come nonsense on the battlefield, as long as his Fujian soldiers did not collapse, the Sichuan soldiers led by Wang Hong would not be allowed to escape, otherwise he would not be able to protect Wang Hong and them.

After Wang Hong heard this, it can be said that he was grateful to Xiaotian, and repeatedly promised that he was willing to use Yu Xiaotian's soldiers and horses as auxiliaries, but if he wanted to do some hard work, just command, he would definitely order his soldiers to help Yu Jiajun's army, as long as Yu Xiaotian did not use them as cannon fodder to fill the battlefield and send them to death, he promised to restrain his subordinates not to mess around.

In fact, Yu Xiaotian did this, not only sympathizing with these Sichuan soldiers, the key is that these Sichuan soldiers, even if they are used as cannon fodder by him and thrown into the battlefield, they will not play much role, but they are likely to collapse in battle, affecting the morale of the generals under his command, and even the defeated Sichuan soldiers may also impact his own formation.

Therefore, instead of using them as cannon fodder, it is better to buy them and follow him as auxiliaries for a period of time in the future, as long as he shows a little favor, these Sichuan soldiers will become his diehards for a period of time in the future, and they can make up for the shortcomings of his own troops.

Therefore, the Sichuan soldiers led by Wang Hong, after this battle, lined up in the rear of the left flank of the home army, basically in the position of watching the battle.

The Sichuan soldiers and others were also grateful to Xiaotian for treating them like this, and after the formation, they also boosted their morale, at least they didn't look like they were listless a few days ago.

The rebels did not move, and Yu Xiaotian was not in a hurry to move, and the two armies formed a state of confrontation on the battlefield, making the battlefield on the south road seem quiet.

However, on the west side, the rebels and the Shandong soldiers and Zhejiang soldiers quickly fought together, and the rebels rushed to the official army array, and in the official army, they immediately fired arrows in unison, shot the foot, and fought with the rebels.

Today, Zhu Dadian led his troops to watch the battle in the Chinese army camp, and Yu Xiaotian also gave Zhu Dadian a low-magnification monocular as a gift, which made Zhu Dadian like it very much, so Zhu Dadian climbed on the high platform and personally observed the situation on the battlefield.

Therefore, generals such as Wu Anbang and Gao Guozhu did not dare to fear the enemy without fighting, so they could only bite the bullet and lead their troops to fight fiercely with the rebels.

At first, the officers and soldiers were able to do the work to block the water and cover the earth, but after more than an hour of fierce fighting, the morale of the officers and soldiers began to become low, but the rebels became more and more courageous, and gradually began to grasp the initiative on the battlefield, and began to attack the officers and troops in waves.

Although Wu Anbang and Gao Guozhu and others also desperately pressed their subordinates, so that they could not retreat, and they must withstand the attacks of the rebels, but these generals were very weak, and the more they fought, the more afraid they became, and deserters began to appear.

So the generals had to kill some deserters in a row, which somewhat stabilized the front and re-stalemate with the rebels, both sides suffered heavy losses in this fierce battle, but the rebels never relaxed the rhythm of the attack, and continued to send generals, wave after wave of continued attacks.

When the two sides fought until noon, the official army had begun to exhaust its strength, and the front was chaotic again, and the rebels saw the opportunity to send an elite cavalry into the battlefield, tearing apart the array of Shandong soldiers, and then cutting off the connection between the Shandong soldiers and the Zhejiang soldiers, and a large number of rebels began to besiege the Shandong soldiers.

At this time, the Shandong soldiers under the command of Wu Anbang finally couldn't bear it, and the array began to have a rout, Zhu Dadian saw clearly on the high platform, it can be said that he was anxious, and turned his head to look at Yu Xiaotian's side, the Fujian soldiers and horses and the Sichuan soldiers were still in a state of confrontation with the rebels, although the two sides also fought some battles, but the war was not fierce, it can be said that the rebels often retreated at the touch of a button, and did not dare to fight to the death with Yu Xiaotian's Fujian soldiers.

Xiong Wencan was anxious at this time, knowing that if the Fujian soldiers didn't make any big moves, the Shandong soldiers might not be able to hold on, and the Shandong soldiers and horses would be defeated, and the Zhejiang soldiers would definitely be defeated together.

So Zhu Dadian was anxious to send people to find Yu Xiaotian, and ordered Yu Xiaotian to hurry up the attack, first achieve a victory on the south road, contain the rebels' siege of Shandong soldiers and horses, and support Shandong soldiers and horses.

Wu Anbang also sent people again and again to ask Zhu Dadian for help, asking Zhu Dadian to quickly transfer troops, flank the rebels, and rescue his soldiers and horses, otherwise he would really be a little unable to hold on.

When Yu Xiaotian saw this time, he ordered the whole army to start advancing, and ordered the Sichuan soldiers under Wang Hong's command to follow closely and kill the rebels on the opposite side.

With the sound of war drums, a few trumpets and cannons sounded in the formation of the Yujia army, and then the horns were blown by the trumpeter, and a column of soldiers and generals of the Yujia army began to advance like a wall at this time, and each column of queues, keeping a certain distance, attacked towards the rebels' large array.

The artillery array on the right flank of the large array also began to fire artillery at this time, and one after another the shells flew whistling across the battlefield and smashed into the front of the rebel formation.

The rebels also fired back, but their artillery level was limited, and the range of their artillery was also limited, and the shells fell in the middle of the battlefield, which did not cause much damage to Yu's army.

These generals of the Yu family's army, their faces were blank, without any expression, one by one silently stepping on the sound of drums or whistles, maintaining a rigorous battle formation without scattering at all, occasionally a cannonball fell into their formation, harvesting the lives of several soldiers, but for their formation, it did not cause the slightest commotion.

Everyone quietly held their weapons, step by step and walked forward steadily, the gap knocked out by the cannonballs would soon be re-bridged, no one made an exclamation, only heard their feet fall to the ground, making a neat roaring sound, like a drum, slamming heavily on the hearts of the rebel generals.

As for the wounded soldiers or the fallen soldiers, someone was specially responsible for rescuing them, and the bodies were quickly carried down for sorting and burial, and the wounded soldiers were immediately sent to the back for hemostasis treatment, all of which seemed to be in an orderly manner.

Zhu Dadian was not born in the army, and he didn't know much about the military formation, but he could also see that the military formation formed by the generals under Yu Xiaotian was thick and steady, and there was no chaos on the battlefield, exuding a palpitating sense of coercion.

It's just that their formations look more peculiar and too simple, forming a phalanx one by one, which neither interferes with each other, but also cooperates with each other, a bit like a kind of fish scale formation of the Ming army, but it is very different.

Zhu Dadian couldn't see through the benefits of this kind of phalanx used by Yu Xiaotian, but he felt that Yu Xiaotian's generals were not simple, and this kind of calmness was the only time he had seen it in his life, and the silent march made them appear as stable as Mount Tai.

This reminded Zhu Dadian of a sentence in Sun Tzu's Art of War, which is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as fierce as fire, and as immobile as a mountain. Just the Yu family's army, which changed from a formation to an offensive formation, this momentum was impressive, and Zhu Dadian once again opened his eyes.

When the rebels saw that the Fujian soldiers began to march towards them, they did not show the rebels on the other side, and suddenly there was a slight commotion in the formation, and after a while, they regained their stability, and hurriedly erected their shields in front of the formation, and the musketeers and archers were transferred to the front of the formation, making a posture of defending and defending strictly.

Some of the rebels' artillery was also pushed out of the large formation and set up in front of the formation, ready to use the artillery to block the attack of these Yu family troops.

However, the range of these cannons of the rebels is limited, and most of the cannons that are carried to the front of the battle are some small cannons, most of which are old cannons such as tiger squat cannons and bowl-mouth guns, and the direct range of these cannons is only a few dozen steps, and the power at close range is not small, but they cannot deal with long-distance targets.

Even if the shell was barely hit in front of the Fujian army's formation, the shell basically lost its kinetic energy and could not achieve the lethal effect of the ricochet.

However, the Yu family army did not even give them this opportunity, and stopped advancing two hundred paces away, and the rows of musketeers armed with wolf tooth rifles began to raise the wolf tooth rifles in their hands, only to hear a shocking sound of guns, and the rebel gunners who were busy operating their guns in front of the rebel formation immediately fell down one after another, and let out a miserable scream.

After only three volleys, the gunners of the rebels who were transferred to the front of the formation were completely lost, and they were all killed next to their guns, and the remaining rebel gunners who were lucky enough not to die also fled back to their formations in horror.
