With Sun Chuanting's order, more than 80,000 Qin troops shouted, or lit artillery, or beat war drums, and pressed towards the intruding army on the opposite side, which was only half of their number. As the Qin army's drums remembered, the intrusive army opposite the Qin army also shouted in unison, swooping down on the Qin army, which was more than twice as numerous as them.

Sun Chuanting watched with satisfaction as the Qin army's artillery fired one after another, and some of them successfully entered the camp of the invading army, knocking down many invading soldiers with each shot.

The distance between the two armies approached rapidly, and as soon as the invading infantry came within range of the muskets of the bandits, the soldiers of the bandit army immediately fired a salvo in a decent manner.

Although the distance is very far, but you can still see a few soldiers who broke into the army were knocked down, with this volley, the morale of the militia of the army immediately collapsed, many soldiers began to turn around and flee, and after seeing the front row turn, the soldiers in the back row also hugged their heads and ran away, and before the hand-to-hand encounter, the army collapsed.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Chuanting and Yang Wenyue saw Xu Ping's general flag begin to move, but this flag seemed to have been squeezed by his own rout, and the speed of retreat was not very fast.

"This is the eldest disciple of Zhendong Hou? The new army is defeated to them? Sun Chuanting was taken aback, turned his head and asked Yang Wenyue beside him: "Did you lose to him last time?" ”

"Hmm, hmm, last time this thief came to beat me with hundreds of thousands of thieves." Yang Wenyue also felt surprised, but he immediately reacted: "And they are all his elite, not these bandits." ”

"Cavalry dispatch!" Sun Chuanting saw that Xu Ping's banner had fallen, and the other party was obviously afraid that his target would be too conspicuous, Sun Chuanting estimated that Xu Ping had found that the militia was broken and could not be collected, and began to abscond with the guards: "Cavalry, don't care about other thieves, go and fetch Xu Ping's head to this officer!" ”

After a pause, Sun Chuanting added: "Of course it's better if you can be captured alive." ”

The cavalry of the Ming Army, which was hidden in the rear of the bandit army, roared out, chasing after their infantry brothers like a whirlwind, and at this time, the infantry of the bandit army was also in high spirits, shouting loudly and chasing after them, just like the performance of the Hebei army in Zhongdu. When the cavalry caught up with the rear of the infantry, the front army of the bandit army had already rushed past the place where the army had just broken into the formation, and the ground was full of broken silver and copper coins.

"Chase, chase!" The generals and officers in the front row of the bandit army let out a loud roar, and they pointed their swords at the back of the intruding army in front: "Don't let the thieves escape, catch Xu Ping, and reward a thousand taels of silver!" ”

Some of the soldiers of the bandit army obeyed the order to continue the pursuit, but most of them were still picking up broken silver and copper coins on the ground, and some even fought with each other:

"I got it first."

"Let go, this is what I saw first."

Seeing that everyone was there, the soldiers who had been following the pursuit also stopped and began to look around to see if there were any belongings within reach. There were many monks and few porridges, and the soldiers who did not grab anything were the majority, so they scrambled to continue to rush forward, and once they ran to the front row of the line, they immediately bowed down to pick up things on the ground in front of them.

"Don't stop, chase it!" Of course, the officers of the bandit army did not look down on these small pieces of silver, but their orders were drowned out by the screams of the soldiers.

At this time, some clever officers of the bandit army had already begun to wonder: "Why did the thieves still carry so much money into battle, isn't it a fraud?" ”

The silver coins thrown on the ground were all temporarily borrowed by Xu Ping from the surrounding cottages, or asked for them from nearby survivors, and the intruders in the front row threw the silver coins all over the ground when they fled.

When the cavalry of the anti-bandit army rushed through the line-up of their own infantry, their infantry companions were already in chaos, a large number of soldiers were scuffling on the ground, and the soldiers of the anti-bandit army who had only arrived later saw that there was money on the ground that could be picked up for nothing in broad daylight, so they all rushed up one by one, pressed on others and broke the fingers of the soldiers in front of them in an attempt to get a piece of the pie and leave.

The cavalry forced their way through the crowd, and from time to time there were screams of being trampled, mixed with the insults of the cavalry after they accidentally fell off their horses.

When a group of cavalry finally stumbled through the formation, the militia on the opposite side had already fled far away, and after seeing that the road in front of them was finally smooth, the cavalry who rushed over did not care to adjust their formation, and accelerated again to watch the intruding army catch up - the confusion behind them became even more chaotic, the cavalry could not find the cavalry officers, and the officers could not see their men.

The intruding infantry running on the opposite side kept running to the sides, and the cavalry didn't care about these miscellaneous fish that had fled into the wheat fields, streams, and woods on both sides of the road, and went straight to the position where Xu Ping's flag disappeared in front of them.

This limited distance between the infantry and the intruding army ran away in a blink of an eye, and more invading soldiers scattered to both sides, and when these cavalry were still about a stone's throw away from the back of the invading army, the banner of Xu Ping, who had disappeared just now, was suddenly erected again.

As the flag was raised, all the invading troops shouted, and the people who had not had time to disperse fell down one after another, and then the cavalry of the bandit army saw that behind the militia invading the army, there was a neat lineup of black-clothed gunners......

"Aim for ......"

Sergeant Yue Mu pointed the spear in his hand in the direction of the cavalry of the bandit army, and the comrades of the Guards Battalion beside him let out a familiar sonorous sound when they flattened their muskets.

"Fire!"

Before the smoke cleared, the soldiers of the Guards Battalion in the back row had already stepped up to the front row, and they were firmly pointing their guns at the front, and when the first cavalry of the bandit army appeared in the smoke of gunpowder, the second order to "open fire" was conveyed.

At the end of this volley, a large number of cavalry rushed out from the flanks of the musketeers of the Guards Battalion, led by a man dressed in black, wearing a wide-brimmed felt hat, holding a shining saber flat on his chest, and the standard-bearer who followed him held high the banner of the general who broke into the camp.

"Get on the bayonet, charge!" At the same time, the battalion flag of the Guards Battalion also waved forward three times quickly, and after seeing this signal, all the officers of the Guards Battalion issued orders in unison.

"Kill the officers and soldiers." Yue Mu held his spear, let out a loud roar, and ran forward at a speed of 100 meters sprint, behind him was the shouts of the brothers in unison, no matter how fast Yue Mu ran, he couldn't leave this shout behind.

Before the war, when Xu Ping said that he would lead the charge of the team, Yu Shenhe felt that he was suspected of leaving the post of commander.

"These people can't command, hundreds of leaders who don't even know the banner, tens of thousands of troops have only converged in less than two days, how can you let me command?" Xu Ping felt that not only did he have no way to command this army, but no one in this world could manipulate such an army with his fingers: "I can only give them the simplest banner and let them remember four orders: retreat, turn around and pursue, form a team, and finally charge." ”

"Even so, is it necessary for the adults to lead the charge in person?" Yu Shenhe still remembers that when Xu Ping was teaching the team, he was the one who didn't like to practice swords, but after he arrived at the camp, he went to practice swords as soon as he had spare time.

"Brother Yu, today my subordinates are all civilian training, they don't understand the importance of command, they only know that the commentary says that the general is going to rush to the front, and I must set an example for them. Besides, the army is impermanent, and the experience of commanding the Guards Battalion and the Western Battalion cannot be copied here. Xu Ping felt that for these militiamen, morale was more important than command, or rather: they needed the simplest command and high morale: "I didn't do this kind of thing before, don't you remember when I first came out of Luoyang, I even sneaked into the city and stole the door?" ”

"At that time, there was only one battalion of adults."

"I only have one guard battalion today," Xu Ping smiled and patted Yu Shenhe on the shoulder: "And I am no longer the commander of this battalion, Brother Yu, you are the one who should stay in the command post." ”

……

Beside him was the first cavalry team of the guards battalion, Xu Ping rushed to the front with his saber, he had no time to look back to see if the other cavalry were keeping up, all the soldiers who had horses and horses to break into the camp got an order, that is, to follow Xu Ping's general banner.

The scattered cavalry of the bandit army was easily crushed by the cavalry of the intruding army close together, Xu Ping saw that the enemy in front of him had begun to turn around and flee, he clamped the horse's belly hard, and his eyes were fixed ahead.

"I am a role model for the whole army, and all the people behind me are looking at me, and more people are looking at them." Xu Ping thought so in his heart, without any hesitation or hesitation, and followed the footsteps of the cavalry of the bandit army to rush back to the original position, in front of him was an endless array of bandit army troops, some were still fighting for things, and some had already picked up weapons and seemed to be ready to resist.

Xu Ping rushed into the crowd without stopping, rushing through the scattered gaps of the Ming army, and he saw the enemy soldiers dodging in panic, and countless people swept by. Xu Ping swung his knife continuously, cutting down several enemy soldiers who passed by in a row, and at the same time felt that the mount seemed to be stepping on someone.

The screams from behind were incessant, and there seemed to be the sound of bones shattering from being hit or trampled on by horses.

The enemy in front of him was only the back left, Xu Ping saw that everyone in front of him was running, he still did not slow down, until he caught up with an enemy soldier in the front row, and when he rushed past him, Xu Ping swung an arc hard, and saw the blood light splashing into the sky with the knife light.

In front of him, there was Sun Chuanting's banner and a group of standard battalion soldiers who were waiting for the battle, and only then did Xu Ping slow down his horse, he looked back after he fixed his horse, and at the same time raised his saber vigorously: "The whole team!" ”

Behind him was the battalion cavalry, they did not disappoint Xu Ping, they all followed the general flag closely, Xu Ping saw that the sticks of these soldiers who broke into the camp were also covered with blood.

Through the gaps in these cavalry, Xu Ping saw that a large number of intruder infantry had rushed up farther away, and they were beating the soldiers of the bandit army with sticks.

"The whole team!" Xu Ping shouted again, and the cavalry of the First Cavalry followed him and swung their sabers vigorously, calling on the others to stop and prepare for the final sprint.

"Kill the officers and soldiers."

"Kill the officers and soldiers!"

However, the Henan militia who rushed up turned a deaf ear to Xu Ping's shouts, and they rushed past Xu Ping in a hurry, rushing towards Sun Chuanting's banner without hesitation. The mace cavalrymen who followed Xu Ping's banner originally stopped and explained to them in advance that they should always follow the general's banner, so they also stopped their horses after Xu Ping stopped.

Seeing thousands of soldiers rushing from their sides, these cavalrymen couldn't bear it, and once again raised the big sticks in their hands above the top: "Kill the officers and soldiers!" ”

Countless soldiers rushed past Xu Ping, which made him shake his head helplessly, and also pointed his saber forward again: "Charge!" ”

……

"What a cunning thief."

After Sun Chuanting saw that the troops in front of him were defeated by the defeated army, he couldn't help but curse.

The artillery of the Ming army opened fire again, and without any scruples, they rained shells into the chaotic army in front of them, and then the reserve infantry of the bandit army began to exert their firepower, and since the invading army had already rushed to the front, each of their volleys would knock down large swaths of the invading army in dense formation.

"Although we lost for a while, we still have a lot of people after all." Now there are 20,000 Hebei troops and 20,000 Qin troops left by Sun Chuanting's side, although the other half has been dispersed, Sun Chuanting feels that he can still turn the tide.

The intruders, who were constantly attacked, did not stop at all, and the people behind did not hesitate to step on the fallen companions in front of them, stepping on their blood and continuing to advance. They ran faster and faster, and the sticks in their hands were raised higher and higher.

"Kill the officers and soldiers."

The shouts of the invading army were continuous, and a large number of barefoot Henan peasants rushed over through gritted teeth, and the bandit army fired a final salvo, which, as before, still could not stop the advance of the invading army. The intrusive army armed with wooden sticks slammed into the Qin army's defense line with the sticks. The soldiers in the front row of the Qin army had already replaced their flintlock pistols with bayonets, and the soldiers who were stabbed by the bayonets held the sharp blades that pierced their bodies, so that these Qin soldiers could no longer use their weapons. And the companions behind them crossed their shoulders and smashed the heads of the Qin soldiers in front of them with big sticks.

Sun Chuanting watched the development of the battle situation in front of him in amazement, and more and more soldiers rushed forward desperately, ignoring the oncoming bullets and bayonets, and just waved the wooden stick in his hand and smashed it at the head of the Ming soldier without a head. Not to mention those Ming soldiers who did not wear helmets, they were some Ming army officers who commanded the battle in the front row, and the iron helmets on their heads were even smashed to pieces by the wooden sticks of the Chuang army along with their heads.

A large number of mace cavalry also joined the battle group, and they did not stay on the infantry battle line, but remained deep in the formation as before, and in a blink of an eye, the entire army of the bandit army was full of murder.
