Ten years of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, the sixth day of the sixth month of June.

This is another afternoon that can heat up people, there is not a single cloud in the sky, and the sun is sprinkled unhindered, illuminating the entire Fushun County is a white color. In the scorching heat, everything looked listless, and even the Qing soldiers in ambush in the woods on the banks of Rongxi in Fushun County and outside the city seemed lazy. The castle tower at the south gate of Fushun County, which was built with donations from the salt merchants of the artesian well, stands there, and the outline of the castle tower floats because of the heat.

At this time, Li Tianyu, the governor of Yunnan, and his alternate Dao Lu Sanhao stood on this towering city tower, each holding a clairvoyant mirror, and kept looking at the official road south of Rongxi in the south, both frowning, looking quite uneasy.

Today, the two of them should have guarded Wu Yingxiong, the prince of Pingxi, in a salt merchant mansion in Fushun County, this "big dog bear" who can only eat and wait for death is still somewhat useful now - if Wu Sangui is really cold, then he is the "small righteous name" of the imperial army entering Yunnan! Of course, the righteousness is on the side of the imperial court, but "righteousness is not too much", if the righteousness and small righteousness are on the side of the imperial court, then Wu Yingqi and Wu Guogui are only injustice left in the hands of the two traitors.

But now Li Tianyu and Lu Sanhao really don't have the heart to guard that "only" Wu Yingxiong, who is not in good condition, and looks like he is sick because of excessive grief and fear. Because the two of them received a report from Tangma in front of them an hour ago, they knew that a group of "Wu soldiers" with the banner of "Wu Dutong" had passed Daguan Town (an important place between Yibin and Fushun) and were rapidly coming towards Fushun County.

And the number of this group of "Wu soldiers" was not the 10,000 as previously agreed, but only 2,500, and about 10,000 "Wu soldiers" followed about seven or eight miles behind them.

Obviously, Wu Yingqi is not so easy to deceive, so he still keeps an eye on it, and divides the army he brought into two teams, the front team explores the way, and the back team presses the formation.

If the Qing army set up an ambush on a column of mountain beams on the east side of the official road from Yibin to Fushun (an open plain on the east side of this column of mountain beams) and attacked the "Wu soldiers" of the front team, then the "Wu soldiers" of the rear team would be able to come to the rescue.

The area of Daguan Town is the narrowest area along the official road leading from Yibin to Fushun, the east side is a series of slender and low hills such as Tazi Mountain and Mojia Tomb Mountain, and the west side is another hill, and the official road passes through the narrow flat land in the middle, and the narrowest part of the flat land is less than five miles. Definitely a great place to set up an ambush!

If the front team "Wu Bing" passed through the area of Daguan Town safely, then the rear team "Wu Bing" may or may not pass through.

So this is still quite a test of the Qing Heavenly Soldiers who set up ambushes, but fortunately, the Qing soldiers who are now lying on Tazi Mountain and Mojia Tomb Mountain are personally commanded by Yue Le, and this prince's ability to fight with soldiers is still online!

But the question is, when should the ambush soldiers on the side of Fushun County attack?

According to the original strategy, the ambush soldiers on the mountains near Daguan Town should hit the tail of the "Wu soldiers", cut off their rear roads, and at the same time stop the reinforcements in the direction of Yibin County. And the ambush soldiers on the side of Fushun County are to hit the head of the "Wu soldiers", give Wu Yingqi a head-on blow, if possible, another thief will capture the king first, and capture Wu Yingqi, the head of the anti-thief, then everything will be fine.

And now." The vanguard of "Wu Bing" is waving Wu Yingqi's general flag, but the question is whether Wu Yingqi is really in the team?

So they'll have to come and see for themselves! You can't let a fake Wu Yingqi blind the big guy!

In the clairvoyant mirror of the two of them, the group of 2,000 or hundreds of "Wu soldiers" had already walked along the official road, getting closer and closer.

This group of "Wu soldiers" was composed of an infantry team, a horse team, and an artillery team with artillery, of which the horse team was at the forefront, and there were only 200 cavalrymen, all of whom wore blue cloth robes and red tasseled hats, and each carried a bamboo spear that looked long and thin. There are also people in the horse team with a very large banner, which is embroidered with the words "Pingxi Wangfu is Wu" Pingxi Wangfu now has three Wu Dutong, one is Wu Yingqi, one is Wu Shicong, and one is Wu Guogui. It is impossible for Wu Guogui to come, so this "Wu Dutong" is either Wu Yingqi or Wu Shicong.

Li Tianyu held a clairvoyant mirror and tried to search for Wu Yingqi or Wu Shicong among this group of Wu family cavalrymen who were all dressed similarly. As the team got closer and closer, faces tanned by the sun on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau appeared more and more clearly in the clairvoyant mirror. Li Tianyu tried hard to identify, trying to find Wu Yingqi or Wu Shicong.

Suddenly, Lu Sanhao's surprised voice sounded: "Wu Yingqi! It's Wu Yingqi. He came in person! ”

Immediately followed by the voices of Leerjin, the king of Shuncheng County, and Mo Luo, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi.

"Where? Where is it? ”

"Thank goodness."

At this time, Li Tianyu found out that the two of them had also climbed the city wall at some point, and they were also holding a clairvoyant mirror to look at the official road to the south!

Li Tianyu closed his eyes, cultivated his eyes a little, and then looked intently again, this time he also saw Wu Yingqi! looked quite leisurely, riding a tall horse, walking in the middle of the horse team, and holding a fan in his hand to fan himself - it was stuffy and hot today, and Li Tianyu felt that his official uniform was soaked and sticky to his body at this time.

"It's Wu Yingqi!" He put down the clairvoyant mirror, shook his somewhat sore shoulder, and let out a long sigh, "Your Majesty, the emperor is blessed with heaven!" ”

Mo Luo, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Great, this can be regarded as a win!" ”

"Not yet!" Leer Jin said, "You have to catch Wu Yingqi to win!" As he spoke, he turned to Goshha beside him and said, "Spread the king's order. Be sure to wait for Wu Yingqi to cross the pontoon bridge before starting! ”

"Huh!"

The pontoon bridge he was talking about was a pontoon bridge over Rong Creek. This Rongxi is a tributary of the Tuojiang River, and it is said to be a "stream", but in fact, the width and depth can be regarded as a large river in the north. And now it is the summer flood season, so this Rongxi is now deep and wide, and it is impossible to wade at all, and in order to facilitate Wu Yingqi to throw himself into the net, Yue Le asked people to set up a wide and strong pontoon bridge on Rongxi.

As long as Wu Yingqi crosses the pontoon bridge, then he won't have to run!

At the head of Fushun County, everyone held their breath and looked intently at the Wu family's horse team slowly coming on the official road. I don't know if it's because these people are too anxious, or because the horses under the crotches of those cavalry are tired, and the speed of this cavalry seems to be getting slower and slower.

Suddenly, Wu Yingqi, who was at least fanning the fan on the side, took the reins, stopped the horse, and raised the folding fan in his hand high!

What is this trying to do?

Near Daguan Town, the Stone Drum Temple on a low mountain beam is a temple that has been abandoned for many years, the scale of the temple was not small, it should have been worshiped by the salt merchants of the artesian well, and the remaining buildings are still very tall and sturdy.

Now this temple has become the location of Prince An's Yue Le's Chinese army, and there is a small mountain pass and an abandoned village under the mountain beam where the temple is located, where the artillery team led by Dai Zi is placed, and the twelve Weiyuan general cannons have been erected, just wait for the brigade of Wu soldiers to pass from the official road three or four hundred steps away, and they will be able to fire artillery bombardment!

As soon as the cannon sounded, the Qing army ambushed in the nearby mountains and forests would kill the Wu soldiers who were bombarded by the cannons like a tiger descending the mountain!

The above is the battle plan of the 20,000 Qing Heavenly Soldiers commanded by Yue Le today!

The plan is good but always fails to catch up with the changes. The rear team of more than 10,000 Wu soldiers, for some reason, walked to a village built by "Yunnan immigrants" who spoke Shaanxi accents ten miles southwest of Daguan Town, and stopped advancing and began to bury pots and cook there!

And the area around that stockade is very open, not suitable for ambushes, and it is quite suitable for setting up for a grand formation

This time it's Yue Le's turn to get bigger!

Is it okay for him to take his troops down the mountain now? Or should you keep waiting?

If he goes down the mountain to line up now, then the front team of "Wu Bing" will no longer throw themselves into the net, but will turn south and attack him with Wu Bing's rear team, although the two teams in front and behind Wu Bing together will not exceed 15,000, and the advantage is still him.

But in this way, it will be difficult to catch Wu Yingqi!

But if he doesn't attack now, then when Wu Bing's front team is ambushed, the more than 10,000 people in the rear team may turn to stick on the spot If Wu Yingqi is not in the front team, then even if Leer Jin destroys those 2,000 people, Yue Le still has not achieved his goal.

It's embarrassing!

Yue Le was in a dilemma, and when he was beside him, an unusually burly man in his twenties wearing a cloth mask armor in the color of a white flag suddenly shouted: "Southeast direction. Red Turban Army! ”

Yue Le was stunned when he heard this voice. Red Turban Army?

What dynasty now? The end of the Yuan? Where did the Red Turbans come from? Now at most, it is the end of the Qing Dynasty No, no, the Qing Dynasty will take thousands of years, and there can be no "end"!

At this time, the strong man roared again: "Lord Wang, there is a red turban army in the southeast. There are a lot of them, it seems to be tens of thousands! ”

What? Tens of thousands of Red Turban Army?

Yue Le was not calm now, and immediately stood up and asked, "Feiyangu, where are those Red Turban Army?" ”

Fei Yanggu is the name of this strong man, and his old Manchurian surname is Dong E, the younger brother of Dong E, the favorite of the Shunzhi Emperor - look at him, he is taller than Wang Zhongxiao, and he is stronger! Because of the "Biao-shaped concubine", Feiyanguta Ama also prospered in official affairs, from a commander of the army to the minister of the interior, and the title was also promoted from a second-class male to a third-class earl, and later posthumously presented to a marquis. And this Feiyangu inherited the title of third-class earl, and now he is under Yue Le's account as the deputy capital.

Although he did not lead an army by himself, Yue Le attached great importance to Fei Yangu and used him as the "chief of staff", and the "genius plan" to ambush Wu Jiajun this time came from Fei Yangu's hands.

Of course, this plan is a good plan, but it can't stand it, and Wu Sangui also has a copy in his hand!

"Lord Wang, in the southeast direction, it seems to be from Nanxi County!"

As he spoke, Feiyangu stuffed a clairvoyant mirror to Yue Le, and helped him run to the edge of a watchtower that had just been built. Although Yue Le was old, he was still quite flexible, he climbed up in three or two clicks, and then raised the clairvoyant mirror to look southeast.

The east side of the mountain beam where the stone drum temple is located is a large open plain, the plain has been spread to the north bank of the Shu River, and at the end of this plain to the southeast, there is a county seat that depends on the Yangtze River is Nanxi County.

At present, this county seat is also under the control of "Wu Bing".

However, according to the previous information, there was no brigade of "Wu soldiers" in Nanxi County.

"Lord Wang, Wu Yingqi is reversed! We've been tricked."

When Yue Le was still in the monastery, Fei Yanggu shouted again, "Isn't the third prince Zhu who rebelled in Suzhou before such a Red Turban Army?" ”

That's right! Yue Le finally reacted!

Immediately, an even more terrifying thought appeared in his mind, Wu Yingqi no, it may be Wu Sangui who is the opposite!

"Lord Wang, the Wu soldier brigade under the mountain has moved! They've become Red Turbans! ”

At this time, another Yue Le's Goshha leader shouted, Yue Le quickly turned around and looked, and found that the Wu soldiers who were originally resting around the Zhuangzi at the bottom of the mountain had begun to reorganize their team at this time.

And they have already lost their red tasseled hats, and all of them have changed to red scarves or red hoods!

"Lord Wang, what should I do?" Feyangu's voice was also a little panicked.

He originally planned to fight Wu Yingqi and suffer the enemy on his belly and back, but now the enemy on his back seems to be a Qing Heavenly Soldier!

"Don't be afraid!"

Yue Le is a veteran of the battle after all. At this time, he had completely regained his composure, "Wu Yingqi has survived more than 20,000 people, and it is divided into three parts, and this king is just going to break them one by one!" It is said that the king will order Ma Siwen to lead a wing of green battalion soldiers down the mountain from the east to block the thieves coming from the direction of Nanxi! The rest of the people and horses followed the king and gathered in Daguan Town first! ”

"Huh!"

"No, no, Wu Yingqi wants to rush into battle!"

At the head of Fushun County, Lu Sanhao suddenly roared, breaking the oppressive silence that was suffocating.

Just before he let out this shout, the 200 cavalry gathered around Wu Yingqi had been divided into two rows, the front and back, forming two horizontal teams with more than 100 horsemen each, all the cavalry took off their red tasseled hats, changed into helmets wrapped in red scarves, and the long bamboo spears they were carrying on their backs had also been taken off and pointed high into the air.

Two or three hundred paces ahead of these cavalry, near the south exit of the pontoon bridge, there was also a battalion of green battalion recruits at this time, whose task was to guard the pontoon bridge and block Wu Yingqi's retreat after Wu Yingqi crossed the bridge. Originally, he was set up as an ambush hunter, but he didn't expect to become the prey now!

The general who led the team was already anxious and shouted loudly: "Array. Hurry up."

"Qingtian is dead, Zhou Tian should be killed!"

At the same time, the "Wu Soldiers Iron Cavalry", who had just put out a full formation, also let out the highest shout!

Their onslaught began!

Although there were only 200 cavalrymen, they rushed out of the momentum of thousands of troops and horses, and only saw these "bamboo pole cavalry" divided into two formations, with a very neat horizontal formation, like two moving long walls, crushing towards the panicked green battalion soldiers.

On the north bank of the pontoon bridge, there was already a group of ambushed Ganshan Green Battalion soldiers who reacted, and under the command of a staff general, they rushed onto the pontoon bridge one after another, as if they wanted to support the friendly forces in the south.

But before they were halfway there, the army formation of the green battalion soldiers on the south side of the pontoon bridge had been crushed by the cavalry of the Wu army who came like a wall!

Hundreds of bamboo guns with huge inertia collided with the military formation of the green battalion soldiers at an extremely high speed, and before the collision began, the military formation of the green battalion soldiers was already very chaotic. With a screeching sound, bamboo spears either pierced the bodies of the Green Battalion soldiers, or pierced their rattan cards, stabbing them out with their cards.

A terrible scream followed, followed by a panicked shout: "Defeated, defeated"

The formation of the new army of the green battalion also collapsed, so that the soldiers who could still run turned their heads and ran, shouting and running wildly, rushing towards the pontoon bridge, for fear of running slow and being trampled to death by the enemy's cavalry!

After a while, they ran into the Ganshan Green Battalion who was trying to rescue them! Now it is more lively, both sides of a hedge, squeezing each other, the pontoon bridge, crowded with people, chaotic, people are constantly squeezed off the pontoon bridge and fall into the wide and deep stream, making a plopping sound. The sounds of shouting, scolding, exclamation, and shouts for help were mixed together.

Of course, the gunshots and cannons that were used to increase the atmosphere of panic also rang out chaotically. It was not Wu Yingqi's men who were firing, but the shotguns and artillery of the Eight Banners who were ambushed in the woods on the other side of Rongxi were shooting indiscriminately, trying to intimidate Wu Yingqi's subordinates who "wanted to seize the pontoon bridge".

However, the sound of their guns did not give courage to the new soldiers of the Green Battalion who had been defeated, but made them even more panicked, and finally the mana broke the soldiers of the Ganshan Green Battalion, and the two groups ran towards the north bank of the pontoon bridge together.

A whole battalion of the elite of the new army of the Green Battalion was actually defeated by the Wu family's bamboo lancers, and they also rushed to rescue some of the Ganshan Green Battalion who came to their rescue!

Seeing this scene, everyone on the battlefield was shocked!

Why are the Qing Heavenly Soldiers so can't help fighting?

Wu Sangui's cavalry, why is it so powerful? rushed casually with a bamboo gun, and scattered an entire battalion of the green battalion recruits, known as the elite?

Could it really be that Qingtian is dead and Zhou Tian should be established?

I don't know if it's because the victory came too suddenly, which made Wu Sangui's bamboo lancers a little uncomfortable. After breaking down a battalion of green battalions, they did not continue to attack the chaotic pontoon bridge, nor did they take the opportunity to cut the rope of the pontoon, but turned back and retreated. Retreated into a Chinese-style hollow phalanx that had just been set up.

And this Chinese-style hollow phalanx, just placed in the mouth of the south of the pontoon bridge, less than 100 steps away from the pontoon bridge, not only blocked the official road, cut off the communication between Yue Le and Fushun County, but also did not be bombarded by the artillery on the Fushun County, this location is really ingenious enough!
