At this time, the retreat road behind Xiang Yong had already been blocked by the Qing army with board cars.

At this time, the Qing army had surrounded the Ming army in Yongli.

Xu Liangyuan failed to hit several times, and he was also hit by an arrow in his left shoulder.

Xu Liangyuan gritted his teeth and brandished a big knife to cut off the arrow shaft.

At this moment, Xiang Yong has long lost his previous sharpness and began to rout.

The shield men and archers of the Qing army cooperated with each other, steadily narrowing the encirclement.

Seeing his brothers falling one by one, Xu Liangyuan was also red-eyed.

"Even the Haikou dares to attack and kill my Qing army king?" Looking at the Ming army in front of him, Liu Bao snorted coldly.

"Pass the order, behead the head of the enemy general, and reward ten taels of silver." Liu Bao gave an order, and there was an immediate shout in the Qing army.

But before the shouting could be reached far, it was interrupted by the sound of cannons.

"Bang bang." Bursts of artillery rumbled.

In an instant, the shouts of the officers and soldiers of the green battalion of the Qing army were suppressed.

"Firebolt, where does the firebolt sound come from?" When Liu Bao heard this, he was instantly startled, and a cold sweat fell.

This time when I came to Changhua, the green battalion of the Qing army was lightly armed and marched quickly, and the artillery in the army was abandoned in Danzhou.

But now, Liu Bao clearly heard the sound of artillery, where did this artillery come from?

On the flat ground not far away, four six-pounder Franc machine guns of the Ming army were shouting angrily at the Qing army camp.

One by one, the Portuguese flowering bombs smashed heavily into the green camp of the Qing army.

These flowering bullets were violently exploded like grapes, and lead bullets were fired at the unsuspecting Qing army.

"Ahh The Qing army was instantly blasted out of a burst of blood mist, and many Qing soldiers fell to the ground screaming.

The range of these grape projectiles is relatively close, only two or three hundred paces.

If it was a field battle on weekdays, it would be impossible for the Ming army to launch an artillery bombardment of the Qing army at such a close distance.

It's just that now the Qing army has already been caught off guard by hundreds of township warriors, and all the attention is on Xu Liangyuan's hundreds of township warriors.

This gave the Ming artillery an opportunity to calmly deploy its defenses.

"Kill!" Under the order of the former assistant chairman of the marine battalion, the officers and men of the former association of the Ming army came out one after another.

The Qing army, which originally had the upper hand, was instantly collapsed by this sudden Ming officer and soldier.

One after another, the flowering bullets smashed into the queue of officers and soldiers of the green battalion of the Qing army.

Hot lead bullets and lead slag pierced the chests and cheeks of Qing officers and soldiers.

Many of the Qing army's green battalion soldiers were beaten bloodied and lay on the ground wailing.

And this tragic situation also frightened the nearby Qing army, and when they saw the Ming army killing in the distance, they also abandoned their weapons and fled.

"Not good!" At this moment, Liu Bao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he saw the Qing army in the rear fleeing in defeat.

At this moment, he knew that he had been tricked.

The hundred townsmen were just bait, and after their own armies were killed one after another, the thieves came quietly.

"General, the thief's firearms are extremely sharp, our army is caught off guard, let's retreat quickly." Several personal soldiers were guarding Liu Bao's side.

"What are you afraid of, our army still has rattan soldiers, order the rattan soldiers to line up in front of the camp." Liu Bao waved his hand and pretended to be calm.

To say that in the green battalion of the Qing army in the south, the most famous is Teng Pai Bing.

Even when the Qing army marched north to Yaxa, in the face of the sharp firearms of the Russians, Kangxi recruited 300 Tengdun soldiers from the south to meet the enemy, and finally 300 rattan soldiers made great contributions to the Qing army's victory in the Battle of Yaxa.

At this time, the Qing troops in the rear had already scattered and fled, and the board cars piled up on the road were also blown to pieces by the Ming artillery.

The officers and men of the guerrilla battalion also met with Xu Liangyuan's Xiangyong.

"Kill, brethren!" Xu Liangyuan was already red-eyed at this moment, and most of the brothers beside him were already gone.

At this moment, he held a steel knife and vented his anger on the shield soldiers of the Qing army in front of him.

Guarding directly in front of the camp was a battle formation composed of shield soldiers and archers of the Qing army.

Dozens

The famous rattan soldiers and archers cooperated with each other, and the villagers who killed them could not get close to half a step.

The guerrilla campers were also chicken thieves, and they did not rush up to shoot at the Qing archers.

Instead, he took advantage of the efforts of the villagers to cover up and calmly set up the turtledove's foot.

When the Ming army and villagers were defeated again, the Ming army also set up more than ten turtledoves and guns.

"Bang bang bang!"

A dense burst of white smoke rose up, and the high-speed flying projectiles instantly shattered the rattan cards not far ahead.

There was an instant burst of screams and commotion in the ranks of the Qing army.

Cracked rattan fragments and projectiles pierced the rattan shieldmen and archers in the rear.

After a round of shooting, a hole was torn from the Qing army's camp.

"The archer fires the arrow." The co-ordinator shouted, and more than 20 Ming archers fired a salvo at the Qing army array.

Naturally, the Ming army also had longbows, and most of the longbows of the Ming army came from Luzon. The Luzon wood was used, and its texture was much better than that of the bow in the hands of the Qing army.

A few volleys came down, and the Qing archers on the opposite side were suppressed in an instant.

At this time, the Ming Army's heavy fire team was also ready for the second round.

With the sound of the second round, seven or eight more Qing army rattan cards were broken.

After just two or three rounds of offensives, the Qing army fell by twenty or thirty people, and the battle line completely collapsed.

Liu Bao, who was supervising the battle not far away, was also shocked by the firearms of the Ming army.

"How can a thief have such a sharp firearm?" Liu Bao looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

The rattan soldiers he was proud of were crushed and began to rout towards the rear camp.

"General, more than half of the Tengdun soldiers were killed and wounded, and the archers were also suppressed by the thieves, if our army does not retreat, I am afraid." A general always carried a steel knife that was already full of gaps, and ran to Liu Bao panting.

Not far away, the four Franc cannons were already aimed at the camp of the Qing army.

Six-pound buckshot bullets smashed directly into the camp.

The camp, which had only been built for less than an hour, was dusty by several buckshots, and the pillars crumbled and collapsed in an instant.

"Withdraw!" Liu Bao let out a long sigh and immediately led the Qing army to retreat to the rear.

Seeing that the Qing army began to retreat, the Ming officers and soldiers immediately let out bursts of shouts and began to kill the retreating Qing officers and soldiers.

The fight of equal strength instantly turned into a one-sided defeat and slaughter.

The Ming army's firearms, artillery, and bows and arrows continued to smash at the heads of the retreating Qing troops.

From time to time, the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army fell.

These Qing officers and soldiers had already been sleepy and tired after marching in the torrential rain for days, and after experiencing this sudden battle, their fighting spirit also collapsed one after another.

After a while, hundreds of Qing officers and soldiers laid down their arms and surrendered to the Ming army.

The Ming army also accepted it when it saw a good situation, and when it saw the rest of the Qing army defeated and fled, it did not rush to chase and kill.

In the end, Liu Bao had to lead a Qing army of less than 100 people to break out of the Ming army's artillery fire.

In this battle, it was only half an hour before the Qing army defeated the left battalion of Zhenbiao.

beheaded more than two ranks of the Qing army and captured more than 100 Qing officers and soldiers.

The Ming guerrilla battalion lost more than 30 officers and soldiers, and the Xiangyong also lost 10 people.

Looking at the Xiang Yong of less than forty people under his command, Xu Liangyuan also looked up to the sky and roared.

After all, he still underestimated the Qing army, thinking that the Qing army, which had traveled long distances to the city of Changhua, would collapse in an instant under his sudden surprise attack.

Who would have thought that the Qing army would be steady and steady, but instead surrounded their own Xiangyong.

Fortunately, the reinforcements of the Ming army arrived in time, otherwise, I am afraid that I and hundreds of villagers would have collapsed here.

In this battle, the Ming army did not capture many equipment and horses, but it also greatly encouraged the Ming officers and soldiers who defended the city.
