At this time, Tianjin Wei is also a unique scenery, the land of Yanzhao under the sunset reveals a quiet, and the lake water of the triangular lake is sparkling, reflecting the sassy and heroic posture of the officers and soldiers of the guards.

The sound of the reeds rippling in the breeze was like a symphony that began to accompany the pace of the Guards, so that every officer and soldier of the Guards was full of passion and hope for victory.

At this time, the Qing army shuttled out of the reeds, holding bows and crossbows in their hands and aiming at the officers and soldiers of the Guards.

The Second Corps of the First Army of the Guards Army marched into Tianjin Wei in two ways.

Among them, the first column, consisting of an artillery battalion, a cavalry battalion, and an infantry battalion, set off from the direction of Dacheng and headed for Tianjin Wei along the shore of the triangle.

Because according to Jinyiwei's intelligence, Liu Xiyao had already learned that the Qing army's main defense focus was on the two directions of Jinghai and Dagukou.

Therefore, Liu Xiyao, as the deputy commander of the corps, thought of dividing his troops to march directly into Tianjin Wei from the direction of Dacheng, and caught the Qing army off guard.

However, at this time, the actual commander of the Qing army, Wang Mingle of Doluo County, also got the personal transmission of Dolgon, and also noticed that there was an official road far away from the Grand Canal outside Jinghai and Dagukou.

"Since the Ming army has a navy that can attack our Tianjin Wei from the direction of Dagukou, is it possible that my Daqing naval division can't be arranged? Ge Ze, you personally led 10,000 sailors to ambush in the reeds of the triangle lake, as long as the Ming army entered the triangle area, they would borrow the reeds to cover up and approach, and shoot these Ming troops with bows and arrows and firearms, so that they would not return! ”

Mingle's meaning is very clear, that is, to borrow the reeds as a cover to catch the guards off guard.

Therefore, when the cavalry battalion of the first column of the Guards and part of the infantry entered the reeds, these Qing troops who were ambushed in the triangle began to rely on the reeds, and began to set up bows and arrows, and the firearms soldiers also began to load ammunition and aim at our guards.

As the deputy commander of the corps, Liu Xiyao, in order to ensure that the battle he commanded in front of His Majesty the Emperor would achieve a foolproof victory, he now looks at the map almost every day and night, and sometimes even swims across the triangle to check the surrounding situation.

Therefore, Liu Xiyao also noticed that Triangle Lake was probably the only place where the Qing army could defeat his own guards, and he couldn't help but say to his subordinates:

"Although the Qing army has 100,000, but if you fight hard with my guards, you still can't win, I think the Qing army should know this truth after suffering so many losses, if I am the commander of the Qing army, I can only take the initiative to attack with the help of geography to defeat my guards in an ambush, and the entire Jinmen area is flat, there are no mountains and jungles to follow, there is only the endless reeds north of the big city."

"Therefore, the Qing army is likely to use the reed swing to ambush us, and even kill us from the reed swing for close combat, everyone knows that there is no gap between bows and arrows and firearms in close combat, and even for skilled archers, bows and arrows are still better than firearms in close combat, but we still have to go this reed!"

"Now the victory of the Northern Expedition is just around the corner, Liaodong and Liaoxi outside the Guanxi have been recovered by the Second Army of the Guards, Shanxi has also been recovered by the Third Army and the Fourth Army of the Guards, the direction of Zhendingfu and Baodingfu is the attack of the two corps of our Guards, Jianguo can only flee now, and it is inevitable that Jianguo will evacuate, but we must kill and wound his living forces as much as possible before he completely withdraws, and prepare for future expeditions or reduce the threat to the north."

"But if we don't choose to take the dense area of Reeddang in the direction of Ayutthaya and only concentrate our forces to attack Jinghai, if I were Dolgon, I would quickly realize that the Tianjin garrison was hopeless and transfer the main force back to Beijing, and then evacuate Gubeikou."

"But what we choose now is to take this reed swing, so that Dolgon and the king of Doro County, who built the captivity, mistakenly think that our guards are beginning to be proud and underestimate the enemy, and they are beginning to be blindly confident, and even blindly confident that they want to take a shortcut to directly attack Tianjin Wei from the direction of Dacheng, but what they don't know is that we are planning a plan!"

Liu Xiyao said that he gave an order: "Pass the order, all the fire oil and earth-shaking thunder brought by the army will be brought by the cavalry battalion and the infantry battalion of the first column to the reeds in the direction of the triangle, and each person will bring two dummies, it is expected that the main force of the first column will enter the reeds in the evening, and bringing the dummies can just give the Qing army the illusion that we are 30,000 or 40,000 main forces going from here;

All departments strengthened their vigilance, and as long as the Qing army launched a surprise attack, they immediately threw out the earth-shattering thunder and fire oil bottles, and burned the reeds! At the same time, the artillery was delayed for half an hour, escorted by the cavalry battalion directly under the corps, and once there was a sound of killing in the direction of the triangle, the artillery was immediately fired, so that this Qing army would not return! ”

Soon after Liu Xiyao gave the order, the army began to prepare for departure.

And as Liu Xiyao expected, the Qing army at this time really didn't expect that the Ming army would deliberately lure them, and the deputy capital of the Qing army, Tong Ge, sneered when he opened the reeds and saw the Ming army marching densely on the official road surrounded by reeds in the dim sky:

"Sure enough, as the prince expected, these bright dogs got into our trap, and we told them to wait for Ben to shoot the signal flares together, and shoot me fiercely with firearms and bows and arrows! When these Ming troops are in chaos, they will rush out again, and the iron cavalry ambushed in the reeds must also be prepared. ”

"Don't worry, master, we are all ready, just wait for your order, so that these Ming dogs know how powerful our Qing warriors are!"

As soon as the men below said this, Goze raised his eyes and aimed his bow and arrow at one of the guards.

Boom.

A dummy in the hands of the guards Chen Zhenhui was suddenly hit by an arrow, and the arrow passed through the dummy and shot directly into Chen Zhenhui's arm, Chen Zhenhui couldn't help but shout bitterly: "Sure enough, there are Tartars, everyone pay attention!" ”

As she spoke, Chen Zhenhui put the dummy to the ground.

When Ge Ze saw this, he thought that the guard had fallen from an arrow, and couldn't help but start to release signal flares: "Shoot Lao Tzu hard!" ”

But at this time, the guards were also ready to shake the sky and the fire oil bottle in their hands.

"Lost!"

Chen Zhenhui shouted.

Suddenly, before the first wave of arrows and bullets of these Qing troops could be shot out in large quantities, a large number of earth-shattering thunderbolts had already exploded in the reeds, and at the same time, a large amount of fire oil began to permeate the reeds, and a fire broke out at the moment when the earth-shattering thunderbolts exploded.

The air in the north was dry, and it was evening, and the water vapor had already evaporated, so that these reeds were more flammable than usual, and the fire was all over the place, and the whole reed was burning rapidly, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger.

The Guards also hurriedly evacuated 100 steps from the official road, using the official road as a separation zone, and began to prepare to ambush the Qing army who wanted to withdraw ashore and flee.
