In a hurry, Gao Yingxiang made a mistake, and this mistake was fatal.

That is, he should not have ordered the entire army to retreat in such a hurry.

You must know that the rogues outside the city were originally a group of hastily assembled rabble.

There is no discipline at all. Such a team may not see anything wrong when it comes to fighting a tailwind.

But when there is a setback or retreat, the problem is immediately exposed.

What's even worse is that Luo Rucai and Ma Huihui are leading the headquarters of the people and horses to outflank the left and right flanks of the Ming army, and now he leads the headquarters of the people and horses to retreat in the middle of the retreat, which gives the Ming army an excellent opportunity.

Yan Di, who was commanding in this town, saw such a situation, where would he let go of such a good opportunity, he commanded the army to cover up without thinking, and when he saw the retreat of the Ming army covering the rogues, it immediately turned into a big rout.

The hasty retreat of tens of thousands of rogues and 50,000 homeless people was terrifying. When tens of thousands of people are desperately fleeing for their lives, scolding, stampede, clashes and so on inevitably occur.

Man is a very strange animal, and when they have the upper hand, almost all of them will fight for the first place, lest others take their credit, and the same is true when they retreat, and naturally they are afraid that they will fall behind others and become the enemy's sword.

The retreat turned into a rout, and it came so suddenly that Gao Yongxiang and a group of rogue leaders couldn't react for a while.

Looking at the scene of tens of thousands of people crowded at the narrow city gate fighting desperately to grab the opportunity to enter the city, Gao Yingxiang was dumbfounded, he really didn't expect things to turn out like this.

"King Chuang, let's leave quickly, the Ming army is about to kill!" A rogue leader came to Ah out of breath and said loudly, this rogue is Liu Zhe, one of his henchmen generals.

"Hey!"

Gao Yingxiang sighed, without the slightest hesitation, and hurriedly followed Liu Zhe around from the side.

The rout of the high-impact town naturally also affected Ma Huihui and Luo Rucai, who originally led 20,000 horses each to attack the two wings of the Jianglin army, but now with the rout of the high-impact town, this plan naturally fell through.

"In charge, King Chuang and they are defeated, what are we going to do?" A leader asked Luo Rucai in a panic.

"Stupid, King Chuang has retreated, let's not retreat, waiting to be dumplings by the Ming army? Send some people to resist, let's hurry up" Luo Rucai slapped the leader on the head.

"Kill!"

There was a shout of killing from the front, and it turned out that the cavalry of the Jiangning Army had killed.

"The Ming army in charge has been killed, let's run quickly."

"Idiot, it's too late to run now!" Luo Rucai was so angry that he whipped his henchman fiercely and scolded.

At this time, Luo Rucai's men and horses are less than a mile away from tomorrow. In front of them were thousands of cavalry. Once you turn around and run away, fools know what will happen.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and meet the enemy!"

"Oh oh oh!"

Under Luo Rucai's strict order, the rogues cheered up and put on a posture to prepare to meet the enemy.

Left flank of the Jiangning Army.

Cao Yinmao looked at the rogue who had opened up the formation in front of him, and raised his right hand high.

"Everyone is ready for a full assault!"

With Cao Yingmao's order, the cavalry of the two brigades suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Liukou.

"Kill!"

Soon the two torrents were about to collide.

"Bang ......"

Seeing that the two sides were about to collide together, the cavalry suddenly separated left and right, and the cavalry almost walked around the edge of the rogues, and then a rapid sound of fire rang out, and the rogues who rushed to the front were shot and fell to the ground, it turned out that the cavalry were shooting with three-eyed handguns.

The three-eyed handcuff is also regarded as the traditional standard equipment of the Ming army.

Historically, the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty had a tradition of equipping with three-eyed guns, but the three-eyed guns originally equipped by the Ming army were made of wrought iron.

The total weight of the three-eyed firearm has reached more than ten catties, not to mention the weight of the three-eyed firearm, and it is not satisfactory in terms of power, range and accuracy.

After Yang Feng came to the Ming Dynasty, he also spent a lot of money to hire a brick family in modern society to help him redesign it, and drummed up a three-eyed handcuff suitable for infantry use.

The brick family who got the benefits did not live up to his expectations, and the weight of the three-eyed handcuff designed was sharply reduced to less than three catties, and the effective range also reached about forty meters, although it was not as good as the brown beisi firearm equipped by the infantry, but it was a good thing for the cavalry to defend themselves in close combat.

And for Liukou, the Ming army in front of him is simply a group of villains.

They did not make contact with themselves, but kept firing while bypassing dozens of meters away, accompanied by the sound of fire, and a large number of people fell on their side.

Seeing that he was knocked down by Jiang Ningjun's firecracker before he could make contact, Luo Rucai was so angry that his face turned blue.

"The dog officers and soldiers are too shameless, they have the ability to fight face-to-face with Lao Tzu, what kind of hero is it to hurt people with firearms!"

If Jiannu was here at the moment, he would pat Luo Rucai's shoulder and comfort him.

This is just the basic operation of the Jiang Ning Army, and there are more shameless tactics and tactics that they have not yet used, such as those most vicious poisonous smoke bombs.

What happened next was just as Luo Rucai expected, these cavalry did not make direct contact with them, but relied on the speed of their horses to constantly pass by their perimeter, and then continued to fire at them with firearms.

On the surface, Luo Rucai had more than 20,000 horses under his command, and the number of cavalry in the Jiangning army was only one-tenth of his.

But Jiang Ningjun relied on this number to beat Luo Rucai to the slightest temper.

The rogues wanted to fight back, but they didn't have an effective means to fight back.

Some people may say that you can fight back with a bow and crossbow.

But I'm sorry, for the poor and white, the bow and crossbow are really a rarity.

Even a small number of crossbows were assigned to the outposts and the bandits in the old camp, and the regular rogues were hardly equipped with such things.

And most importantly, it is not so simple to train a qualified archer, and you can't train a qualified archer without more than a year of training.

Most of the rogues are ordinary people, and they have never touched bows and arrows in their lives, and even if they are given bows and arrows, they will not use them, which has also caused the current situation of passive beating.

After a few rounds of attacks, the rogues finally couldn't hold it anymore, and they couldn't fight back just by being beaten, and no one could stand this kind of thing.

As expected, slowly some rogues began to become deserters, at first a dozen or twenty, and then gradually evolved into hundreds or thousands of people, and finally evolved into a great rout.
