"Lord Wang, the official army has been killed from the sea!"

Just when Ma Yilong was at a loss in the face of Laizhou City, suddenly a subordinate rushed to tell him.

Ma Yilong hurriedly rode out of the camp to see, and saw dozens of sea ships on the sea in the distance, with towering masts and sails like clouds, coming in the wind and waves.

Seeing this, the peasant army was in a panic.

"Afraid of what? These are big sea ships, and they can't go directly to the shore at all! Ma Yilong reprimanded.

Laizhou is not better than Dengzhou, and there is no water city built, these Ming reinforcements must land through the dock outside Laizhou City, and the Laizhou city wall is two or three miles away from the seaside pier.

"This prince is worried that he can't break the city, but the official reinforcements are coming, as long as these reinforcements are defeated, the official army in Laizhou City will definitely open the city and surrender if they are isolated!" Ma Yilong was full of confidence.

Ma Yilong immediately gave an order, and 10,000 elite soldiers were drawn from his subordinates, plus all the archers and firecrackers, and rushed to the seaside pier.

It only takes half a crossing to drive all the official reinforcements into the sea!

Therefore, Ma Yilong did not lead his troops too close, but lined up two miles away from the pier, waiting for the officers and troops to land from the ship.

One after another, sea ships docked at the wharf, and officers and soldiers landed one after another.

"Lord Wang, it's almost." Seeing that there were already more than 1,000 officers and soldiers who had landed, the leaders of his subordinates were impatient.

Ma Yilong shook his head: "Wait a little longer." ”

There are only a dozen ships on the dock, less than a third of all the ships, even if they can defeat these officers and soldiers, what is the use?

When half of the ships docked at the pier and there were almost 3,000 officers and soldiers landing, Ma Yilong felt that it was almost enough, and finally ordered an attack.

As long as you surround these 3,000 officers and troops, you are not afraid that the remaining officers and troops will not land reinforcements from the ship, and then you will naturally be able to annihilate all the officers and troops!

Under the command of Ma Yilong, the 10,000 "elites" of the Smelling Fragrance Sect slowly pressed towards the 3,000 officers and soldiers who had landed, and Ma Yilong showed a confident smile as he saw the officers and soldiers cowering in a mass and did not dare to move.

The smile was not extinguished, and suddenly, "boom, boom", a deafening cannon sounded.

Dozens of shells flew through the sky and landed in the peasant army array. Because the terrain of the wharf was relatively narrow and the peasant army array was relatively dense, even if a dozen people were hit by the shells, they died on the spot before they could even scream, and the shells fell on the hard rocky ground of the sea, bounced again, rolled on the hard ground, and plowed out bloody paths in the ranks of the peasant army.

There was only one round of bullet rain, and the casualties were only a few dozen, and then the peasant army of tens of thousands of people collapsed "with a bang......

Poor people, these are peasants who have just put down their hoes, how can they ever see such a miserable situation? Listening to the deafening sound of artillery, there was still a long distance between them and the officers and soldiers, and they were easily baptized by the shells, and seeing the blurred flesh and blood of their comrades being smashed, many peasant soldiers ran away even if they couldn't support it. One person fled, led a piece, and tens of thousands of people were defeated in this way.

Ma Yilong sat on his horse in a daze, looking at the situation in front of him in disbelief, he never thought that the strong army he had worked hard to train would be defeated like this, and he was defeated by a round of artillery without even fighting head-on with the official army......

"Lord Wang, quickly withdraw." The henchmen who guarded him were still loyal, and instead of running away on their own, they urged.

"Withdraw." Ma Yilong reacted, turned his horse and ran.

"The one who stepped on the horse was defeated after a few shots?" At the coastal pier, Li Chongzhen looked at everything in front of him in surprise, and couldn't believe his eyes. That is, after a round of bombardment, the peasant army on the opposite side would be killed or wounded by dozens of people at most, and it collapsed!

The Liaodong Janissaries were ordered to cross the sea to quell the rebellion, and Zhou Yuji led 20,000 troops to set off from Lushun on more than 200 sea ships, and after arriving in Dengzhou, he heard that Laizhou was besieged, so he sent Li Chongzhen, who had not yet had time to land, to lead a fleet to support Laizhou by sea.

More than 5,000 people and horses, and less than 3,000 people had just landed, and tens of thousands of enemy troops collapsed, which made Li Chongzhen unbelievable.

"Chase!" Li Chongzhen did not care that half of the army had not yet landed, and led more than 2,000 Praetorian Guards to pursue and kill the fleeing peasant army.

Ma Yilong also wanted to reorganize the army and fight again in the camp outside Laizhou, but the rout could not be cleaned up at all, and these routs brought great panic to the camp, seeing the rout of the main force, the peasant army in the camp was even more panicked. Ma Yilong yelled desperately, trying to regroup the team. However, at this moment, Li Chongzhen chased after him with two thousand Praetorian Guards.

"Bang Bang Bang"

A round of firearms rang out, hundreds of peasant troops fell to the ground, and the rest of the "boom" collapsed, and it was no longer out of control.

"Stop!" Seeing this situation, Li Chongzhen ordered to stop the pursuit, led people into the rebel camp, found the barracks where the money and grain were located, and controlled the money and grain abandoned by the thieves in his own hands.

The Praetorian Guard is strictly disciplined, and it does not count its exploits by the number of heads, and it is no good to kill more peasant troops, it is better to occupy a large battalion, at least some of the money and grain will be sent down as a reward after handing it over.

Li Chongzhen did not chase does not mean that others do not chase, seeing the peasant army outside the city break and flee, Zhang Keda, the general soldier of Laizhou, immediately ordered the city to be pursued.

Zhang Keda did not dare to compete with the Praetorian Guards for the camp left behind by the peasant army, so he led the defenders of Laizhou City to pursue and kill, killing thousands of peasant soldiers along the way, even the women and children in the peasant army did not let go. After chasing for more than 20 miles, Zhang Ke led the troops to return, and when he returned, he felt that he was not happy, and then turned around and slaughtered a town to the north, and beheaded the people in the town as thieves, robbed the town of money and food, and led the team back to Laizhou.

When he returned to the outside of Laizhou City, he found that the city gate was closed, and the city was densely covered with Praetorian Guards.

Zhang Ke hurriedly ordered his subordinates to call the door, but was told that he and his troops were not allowed to enter the city, and temporarily camped in the former peasant army camp outside the city.

Zhang Keda was angry, but he didn't dare to argue, because he had seen the powerful force of the Praetorian Guard.

His army was beaten by the peasant army and fled, and thousands of Praetorian Guards defeated the 100,000 peasant army, and the difference in strength made Zhang Keda have to be honest.

His troops were not allowed to enter the city, but Zhang Keda himself had no problem. In the evening of the same day, Zhu Wannian, the prefect of Laizhou, sent someone to send an invitation, saying that a celebration banquet would be held, and Zhang Keda led more than a dozen family members into the city to attend the meeting. Who knew that as soon as he entered the prefect's yamen, a group of soldiers rushed up and arrested him and his family.

"Zhu Fuzun, why did you do this to me?" Zhang Keda struggled to raise his head and shouted angrily.

Zhu Wannian's face suddenly took a step back, implying that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Li Chongzhen stepped forward and looked at Zhang Keda coldly: "Zhang Keda, you killed good people and slaughtered more than 1,000 people in Chen Town, and robbed the money and grain wealth in the town, are you guilty?" ”
