Before this battle, Zierharang has made all-round arrangements, there are more than 20,000 soldiers in each banner and banner, and then select thousands of horses and horses from the Aha miscellaneous service after the army, these people are the remaining Ding in the Niulu of each banner, thus forming more than 23,000 offensive troops, and the remaining Chinese army has thousands of soldiers and horses to guard, these thousands of soldiers and horses are the soldiers and horses of the two blue banners of Manchuria, and they are the troops of Haoge and Zierharang. In addition, there were about 4,000 iron horsemen to the other side to contain Wu Sangui's chariot camp.

On the east side of the Loess Ridge, the soldiers and horses of the Six Banners of the Eight Banners of Manchuria have been assembled, but in fact, the soldiers and horses of the various banners of Manchuria are only a few thousand on this side. Either only a few Niu Lu troops, or a dozen Niu Lu troops, of which Manchuria is the blue flag, the blue flag, and the white flag are the most.

In particular, Azig, the king of Wuyingjun, although Duoduo replaced him as the owner of the white flag, he still had strong control over Niu Lu under his command, and most of them were with him at this time.

It's just that the loss of Enhai and hundreds of other elite Bayala made Azig hate and feel heartache. That is almost all the elite of Bayala in Manchuria, even if Liu Yan's department is annihilated in this battle, the white flag is also a big injury, without a few years of operation, I am afraid it will not be able to recover its vitality.

At this time, Zilharang also decided to increase the front of the army, and from the thousands of soldiers and horses of the Chinese army, 3,000 iron cavalry were drawn to support, these 3,000 iron cavalry were all heavily armored, and equipped with iron shields, specifically to impact the infantry of the new army.

Soon, the three thousand Manchurian and two blue flag iron cavalry were assembled, and under the leadership of a blue-flag Niu Lu Zhangjing, they roared and charged, and soon rushed into the battlefield in front.

Suddenly, the artillery battalion of the new army in the distance fired a salvo again, the Franco's machine gun and the rocket artillery car were added together, more than a hundred artillery pieces continued to roar, and the three thousand Manchurian two blue flag iron cavalry just rushed into the range of artillery fire, and dozens of people fell under their horses on the spot, all rolling and howling in pain, and that Niu Lu Zhangjing was killed on the spot, his head was pierced by a rocket, and he almost exploded on the spot!

Seeing their flesh and blood blurring and stumps flying, the people around them were all cold, although the three thousand iron horsemen were still charging at speed, but they were already in a big mood, and the speed of the charge could not be improved.

None of these soldiers of the two blue banners of Manchukuo had fought with the new army of Qinglai Town, and they didn't think so before, thinking that the rest of the banners were defeated by Liu Yan, which was their incompetence, or Liu Yan's luck.

But when they arrived on the battlefield today, these soldiers and horses with two blue flags were shocked to realize how the soldiers of the previous flags survived under the sharp guns of the new army in Qinglai Town?

"Keep pounding!"

Zilharang and Hauge also saw the scene of Niu Lu Zhangjing's death, but they gave the order to continue the attack almost simultaneously. The casualties of the army are like this, the soldiers and horses in front are already destroying the chariots of the Ming army, and the new army birds and gunners in many places have stopped shooting and began to retreat, allowing the pikemen behind to come forward, saying nothing at this time can not stop, otherwise the battle will be lost, and you must rush in at any cost!

But at this moment, those Qing soldiers who were destroying the New Army chariot found that the surrounding New Army soldiers shouted one after another, followed by iron lumps like raindrops, followed by a loud bang, the explosion of black powder continued, thick white smoke rose up, and various fragments flew inside!

Those Qing soldiers who were holding shields to protect them were suddenly blown up, countless shields were also overturned by the heat wave, and the Qing soldiers who were chopping chariots behind them also became good targets.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

In an instant, there was a loud bang, and in a burst of chaos, those Qing soldiers were suddenly shot down, and some clever Qing soldiers lay directly on the ground, which dodged the salvo of birds.

But as soon as the sound fell, another earth-shattering thunder was thrown like raindrops.

"Boom!"

The heat wave of the earth-shattering thunder explosion overturned and killed the Qing soldiers lying on the ground, and the front of the new army was suddenly in chaos.

However, after the earth-shattering thunder explosion, the horrific salvo of birds that frightened the Qing soldiers began again, and the battlefield was filled with gunsmoke, and the ears were filled with the frightened neighing of war horses, the screams of the Qing soldiers before they died, and the many crazy horses around them jumping around.

The smoke rising from the surroundings made the faces of the Qing soldiers inside looming, and they either ran in panic and fear, or stood blank and violent.

Liu Yan's Chinese army was a little higher, holding a clairvoyant mirror to observe the battlefield situation at this time, only to see that at this time, the offensive of the Qing army has basically collapsed, and the battle has entered a state of anxiety, those Qing troops still want to continue to attack, but they were stopped by the fierce fire of the new army, and then suffered heavy casualties, such a situation is exactly what Liu Yan wants: to kill the living force of the Qing army to the greatest extent!

In the clairvoyant mirror, Liu Yan saw that not far ahead, there were several Qing army followers howling hoarsely, most of them had no armor, their heads were bare, an ugly pig's tail on the back of their heads, and their bodies were summer horse coats and shoulders, which looked delaying, but some of them had horses and soldiers, and they would also bring their own cotton armor, but only a few.

In the face of the heavy fire of the new army, these followers behaved even more unbearable, or they spun around like headless flies, trying to find a safe haven, or they were at a loss and resigned themselves to fate, and when they were shot, they ran desperately and howling, making the already very chaotic military formation even more chaotic.

The battle became more and more intense, the main force of the Qing army, about 10,000 people, was all attacking the infantry formation of the new army, Liu Yan saw the time and ordered the cavalry battalion to join some of Wu Sangui's cavalry and start a counterattack.

At this time, only a few thousand Qing troops were fighting against the cavalry battalion of the new army and the thousands of cavalry of Wu Sangui, and both sides were maintaining their strength, and the battle was not too fierce.

However, when the Chinese army of the new army in Qinglai Town issued a banner, Xu Ming's blood suddenly surged, and led Dong Yun, Du Zhongming, Lu Yuan, three commanders, and more than 12,000 cavalry soldiers to launch a crazy counterattack, and the iron cavalry army directly broke the cavalry formation of thousands of Qing troops, and even the iron cavalry of Wu Sangui's department on one side did not react, and the thousands of Qing army iron cavalry were defeated.

"Don't fall in love with the war, flank the main force of the Qing army!"

Xu Ming looked at the scattered cavalry of the Qing army, and ordered the soldiers of the cavalry battalion to give up the pursuit, and handed over the defeated soldiers to Wu Sangui's department to clean up, and then the soldiers of the cavalry battalion reorganized their troops and horses a little, and immediately rushed to the main battlefield and charged at the flank of the main force of the Qing army.

Just when the cavalry battalion began to charge, Liu Yan had already ordered the artillery battalion to stop firing, and only continued to shoot and kill the enemy with the left, middle, and right battalion birds, as well as the Huzun cannon in front of the formation.

Soon, Xu Ming led his troops to kill, more than 10,000 iron cavalry soldiers roared and rushed into the battlefield, the Qing army, which had been beaten by all kinds of firearms of the new army on the battlefield, could not resist at all, and was quickly defeated under the impact of the cavalry battalion soldiers.

In the middle of the Qing army, Zilharang, Haoge, Azig and others were frosty, and everyone never imagined that nearly 30,000 iron cavalry troops would be defeated so quickly. Although everyone was already mentally prepared, in the face of the more than 60,000 elite new troops in Qinglai Town, the chances of winning this battle were not so great, and it was very likely to be defeated, but the defeat was so complete and so rapid, no one expected it!

"Withdraw!"

Zilharang gritted his teeth and gave an order, although Haug and Azig, Yingordai and others did not dare, but they did not dare to fight any further, and if they continued to fight, it would not be defeat, but the total annihilation.

The rest of the Mongolian banner owners have long wanted to withdraw their troops, in the face of the casualties of the warriors in their hearts dripping blood, now Zilharang ordered the retreat, everyone's hearts are relieved, without waiting for Haoge, Azig and others to speak, a group of Mongolian banner owners have sent people and horses to give orders, and cover the front of the iron cavalry to withdraw.

In the middle of the new army, Liu Yan held a clairvoyant mirror and watched the battlefield, only to see that the banners of the Qing army had retreated, except for some of the Qing troops who were intercepted by the cavalry battalion soldiers and blocked on the battlefield and could not retreat, the remaining nearly 20,000 Qing troops all rushed to withdraw.

"Alas!"

Liu Yan sighed, this is how to deal with the Hu people's iron cavalry, it is not difficult for the Han dynasty to defeat the Hu people, but it is extremely difficult to encircle and annihilate the Hu people's soldiers and horses, or to stay behind. The Hu cavalry comes and goes like the wind, and the mobility is too strong, it seems that after going back, we still have to continue to vigorously develop the cavalry!

Liu Yan thought for a while, and then ordered all battalions of the whole army to start encircling and annihilating the enemy: "Order the left, middle, and right battalions to advance and suppress the enemy's range of activities!" ”

"Order the cavalry battalion to abandon the pursuit and concentrate on encircling and annihilating the stranded enemy soldiers and horses on the battlefield!"

At this time, there were still thousands of Qing troops on the battlefield, and instead of chasing the poor and risking the death of the Qing army, it was better to pocket these thousands of heads on the battlefield.

The war drums of the Chinese army were beating loudly, Zhang Yi, Wang Bo, and Shen Tuo excitedly commanded the officers and men of all departments to move forward, and more than 37,000 soldiers of the three battalions marched forward in unison, with pikemen in front and bird gunners in the rear.

Ahead, Xu Ming led the cavalry battalion soldiers to complete the division and began to encircle and annihilate the Qing soldiers and horses in the encirclement.

Soon, the three infantry battalions advanced two hundred paces, and thousands of Qing iron cavalry had been compressed into a small range, unable to advance or retreat.

Shen Tuo immediately ordered: "The whole battalion will take the sentry as a unit, attack on its own, and kill Hu!" ”

Wang Bo also drew a knife in his hand and roared loudly: "Each post does its own thing, kill Hu, and leave no room alive!" ”

Zhang Yi shouted at the top of his voice: "Kill! Kill them all! ”

Thirty-seven thousand soldiers roared and disbanded the phalanx, and rushed into battle, and even the bird-bearers put the bird-guns on their backs, then drew their sabers at their waists and followed the pikemen to harvest the heads.

The battle ended quickly, and under the encirclement and annihilation of the four battalions of the new army and nearly 50,000 people, thousands of Qing troops were wiped out in an instant, and there really was not a single survivor!

At this time, Zilharang, Haoge, Azig and others had already led the remnants of the army to retreat in the direction of Rufeng Mountain.

The new army on Liu Yan's side did not pursue, and Wu Sangui naturally did not have the courage to send troops to pursue by himself, but divided his troops and began to clean up the battlefield, and took a team of family members to personally ride a horse to meet Liu Yan.

"Mr. Liu!"

Wu Sangui came to the Chinese army, and there was still some distance away, so he laughed and shouted, then rolled off the horse, hugged his fists and said: "General Liu, this battle is really a great victory!" ”

Although the battle under Wu Sangui's department was not fierce, it was only a struggle with thousands of Qing army iron cavalry, and the number of heads captured was also limited, estimated to be only one or two hundred, after all, both sides were releasing water and containing each other, so naturally they would not do their best.

But Wu Sangui really saw that Liu Yan's side was a great battle, even if Wu Sangui thought that he had been on the battlefield for a long time, he had never seen such a vicious battle.

The roar of firearms like a thunderstorm, the smoke of gunpowder like endless white clouds, and the deafening sound of fighting all tell the cruelty and bloodiness of the battle.

At this time, Wu Sangui finally admired Liu Yan from his heart, hugged his fists and said: "This battle is won, Sangui admires Liu Zongbing!" ”

Liu Yan said with a smile: "Haha, Mr. Wu is too praised." In this battle, General Wu's troops also contributed a lot, and this good news naturally also has a contribution to General Wu's troops. ”

Wu Sangui was moved when he heard this, and said secretly: "After this battle, I must be close to General Liu!" ”

At this moment, a group of personal soldiers of the Chinese army rushed to the horse, and the first general turned over and dismounted, hugged his fists and said: "Qi Qi Liu General Bing, Wu General Bing, the governor ordered the last general to come over to contact and inquire about the situation of the war!" ”

Liu Yan said: "Back to the governor, our department has joined forces with the general army of Wu, and has defeated the army of 30,000 slaves and thieves, and has won a lot of people!" ”

"Order!"

Wu Sangui saw that the general had written down the news, and then asked, "How is the battle in the direction of Loess Ridge?" ”

"The soldiers of Xuanfu Town and Shanxi Town, after receiving the support of the Supervisory Battalion and the soldiers and horses of the Chinese army, have broken through the three defense lines of the Loess Ridge, and the army of slaves and thieves has taken the initiative to retreat, and now our army has captured the Loess Ridge!"

Some people died, but not completely......
