Ai Nengqi led his troops to take charge of the palace, saving the time of marching and having a certain amount of time to build fortifications, he ordered the civilian workers in the army to cut down the big trees on both sides of the official road, and built three simple wooden fortifications, which were built on the official road and blocked the entire official road.

He planned to build a fairly solid civil fortress, but when he was halfway through filling the space of the two rows of wooden piles with earth, Gao Jie led the main force to appear, and the construction workers had to stop working and retreat behind the fortress, while the soldiers prepared behind the wooden wall.

Although the official road is spacious, enough to accommodate three large carriages in parallel, it is too narrow for the battlefield, and the troops cannot be deployed at all.

Gao Jie sent a company of troops to attack, and another company formed a formation on both sides of the official road, covering with a platoon of guns, but the effect was not great, most of the bullets were fired on the wooden wall, only a few unlucky people were shot and fell, and the attacking soldiers were shot indiscriminately by the archers of the people's army, and more than 20 people fell, so they had to retreat in a hurry, the distance was too far to use the thunder.

Gao Jie was hot, and sent his own soldiers to the rear to urge the artillery to move faster, during this period, he asked the soldiers to set up a battle formation, and used a platoon of guns to shoot at the civil fortress of Ainengqi, causing sawdust to fly, and also suppressed the militia in the fortress did not dare to raise their heads, and the battle was so deadlocked.

Ai Nengqi's stubborn defense of the civil fortress is to delay time, to buy time for Zhang Xianzhong's main force to retreat, and to achieve the goal by blocking Gao Jie's main force in front of the civil fortress, Gao Jie did not send troops to attack again, only put guns in the distance, he was happy.

However, he soon became unhappy, a few horses dragged two Franco cannons one after another, a dozen artillerymen hurriedly set up the cannons, loaded gunpowder shells, the artillery spotter after the visual estimation, the gunner lit the fuse and opened the cannon, and the soldiers nearby were busy learning the artilleryman to cover the headphones.

With a loud bang, the cannonballs flew out with a roar, hitting the second civil fort, blowing up the civilian troops inside the fortress to the ground, and the soldiers who were not affected nearby were so frightened that they hid in the woods, and no one dared to stay in the fortress.

Ainengqi's face was gloomy and frightening, Gao Jie, a bastard, actually set up a cannon bombardment, and the three simple civil engineering fortresses were not reinforced, so they couldn't withstand a few cannons at all, how could this battle be fought?

The artillery spotter continued to adjust, and the Franc cannon lowered the elevation angle, and then fired, this time two cannons fired in unison, bombarding the wooden wall of the fortification, although it did not collapse the wooden wall, but it also blew up several large wooden stakes, and the shrapnel and wood chips fired everywhere wounded several civilian soldiers, and frightened the civilian soldiers hiding behind the wooden wall.

"Quick, fill the soil, fill the soil......" Ai Nengqi reacted, and hurriedly ordered the migrant workers to dig the soil and fill it into the space of the two rows of wooden walls, with the cushion of soil, the power of the shells naturally weakened a lot, and it also made the soldiers hiding behind the wooden walls feel safe.

Under the pressure of iron swords and steel knives, those migrant workers trembled and dug the earth and fell to the space of the wooden wall.

Under the command of the officers, the officers and soldiers in the front line fired with their guns, and the platoon guns shot down more than a dozen migrant workers, so frightened that the others threw away the mud baskets in their hands and shrank behind the wooden wall.

At this time, the artillery had finished loading and opened fire on the civil fort, and this time, two flowering shells fell into the civil fort, blowing the people inside into bloody flesh.

"Attack!" Taking advantage of the confusion of the people's army on the opposite side, Gao Jie ordered the infantry to attack.

A platoon of soldiers shouted and charged, while two small phalanxes on both sides of the official road covered with platoon guns.

There was chaos in the fortress, although the small leader hissed and shouted and released arrows, but those archers were killed a lot, and the whole fortress was in chaos, all looking for a place to hide, only a few people shot a few arrows, hitting two charging Ming soldiers.

The soldiers in the charge did not hold their guns, but hung their backs, they held the fire rope in one hand and the thunder in the other, and after running closer, they lit the fuse and threw it hard, more than a dozen blue smoke thunder thunderbolts drew arcs in mid-air and fell into the fortress, and a few hit the wooden wall and bounced to the ground.

Boom Boom Boom ......

The fire burst out, the smoke billowed out, the stumps and broken arms were thrown everywhere, the civilian army in the first civil fortress lay down, the officers and soldiers took advantage of the situation to rush up, occupied the first civil fortress, and then concocted according to the law, first bombarded a few cannons with the Francophone cannon, and then took advantage of the chaos to charge, rushed close and greeted with thunder, and captured the second civil fortress in ten minutes.

At this time, there were two Franc machine guns dragged by the horses, the gunner set up the cannon, and bombarded the third civil fortress and the people's army behind the fortress, killing and wounding many people, the main general Ainengqi was also shot in the abdomen by the shrapnel flying indiscriminately, and the war horse that stepped down was also hit by a few pieces of shrapnel, and fell down with a neigh, throwing Ainengqi off the grass, several personal soldiers rushed up, helped him up and ran, the entire defense line collapsed, and most of the fleeing civilian troops fled forward, and some of them drilled into the dense forest beside the road.

"Forward!" The officer commanding in front of the battle shouted loudly, and the command knife in his hand pointed straight ahead.

The soldiers of the Royal Guards Separate Battalion lined up in small phalanxes and marched forward to the beat of the drums to the beat of the drums. Behind is a series of phalanxes, each small phalanx is about ten meters apart, in case the first phalanx collapses with a certain distance buffer and reaction.

The speed of the advance of the independent battalion of the Royal Guards is not fast, as long as the fleeing civilian army can still run, they basically escape, of course, only temporarily escaped, those who are injured can only lie in a pool of blood and struggle to call for help, but no one pays attention, what awaits them will be death after the blood in the body is exhausted, war is cruel.

On the official road in the distance, Sun Chuanting led the army just arrived, and the scouts who went out to reconnoiter reported that Gao Jie had led the independent battalion of the royal guards to defeat the Zhang family army behind the palace and was advancing.

"Yo, hurry up or take a step too slow...... "Some officers complained, and the credit was robbed by the family, so they could only follow behind and eat ashes.

Sun Chuanting thought for a while, ordered the army to rest on the spot, in addition to strengthening vigilance, and sent out a team of several hundred people to search the nearby woods to see if there were any fish that had slipped through the net.

At another intersection, Cao Wenzhao also led the Guangping army to arrive, and learned that Lu Xiangsheng had led his troops to block the Zhang family's army, he was embarrassed to fight for merit, and also ordered the army to rest on the spot, and sent a large number of searches to the nearby woods to see if they could catch a few fish that slipped through the net, so as not to run in vain.

The slowest to come is Qin Liangyu's white pole army, after all, her troops are the farthest away, and they can come at this time, which is already the fastest speed, the white pole army is all the children in the mountains, and the dense mountains and forests are their playground, Qin Liangyu is even more exaggerated, leading the whole army into the forest, and launching a dragnet search, she is also in line with the idea of not running in vain, and catching a few fish that have slipped through the net, so she carefully searched the nearby woods.

Everyone is a step slower, they are embarrassed to grab, and they are unwilling to run in vain, so search carefully, catch a few small fish that have slipped through the net, and pick up the sesame mung bean credit, in case you catch a big fish that has slipped through the net.

The three armies did not fight for merit, and they invariably launched a dragnet-style search, and virtually added a blockade line on the periphery of the battlefield, and most of the Zhangjia army that escaped from the battlefield still crashed headlong into the net.

This will, Zhang Xianzhong is commanding the main force to attack the mountain, but because the mountain is steep and steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the mountain road is narrow, the force can not be deployed, even if there is a million troops, it can only be put into more than 100 people to attack at a time, and the rest of the people can only stare at the bottom of the mountain.

The Ainengqi Department behind the palace has collapsed, Gao Jie led the main force to advance slowly, compressing the living space of the Zhang Family Army, the fierce battle of the forward With the arrival of the main force of the Tianxiong Army, the morale of Li Dingguo's department collapsed, and the five hundred cavalry of the Tianxiong Army were like a torrent of steel, crushing forward, and any creature that blocked the charge of the Iron Cavalry was crushed to pieces.

"Resist, resist me."

Li Dingguo didn't expect his subordinates to collapse so quickly and so quickly, he waved his long sword, shouted loudly, and desperately beckoned his subordinates to form a formation to resist, if he could resist in formation, maybe he could resist for a while, so that he would not be defeated so miserably, but no one obeyed the command, the morale of the whole army had collapsed, and everyone was rushing to flee for his life.

Li Dingguo had no choice but to lead his personal guards to meet the battle, his personal guards were all elite veterans who had experienced a hundred battles, there were originally 100 people, but after several bloody battles, only 30 people remained, and they were overwhelmed by the five hundred elite iron cavalry of the Tianxiong Army in the blink of an eye.
