By dawn, the sky was getting brighter, and the rain had finally stopped after a night's work.

The soldiers trampled on the stagnant water on the ground and hurried.

"Newspaper"

"Fifteen miles away from the rear, I found the Qing pursuers!" A scout came quickly on a warhorse.

Ji Feng's complexion changed slightly, the sky was about to brighten, there was no restriction on rainy nights, the speed of the Qing army's iron cavalry pursuit would be very fast, and the distance of fifteen miles would arrive in an instant. Ji Feng glanced back, the soldiers had been in a hurry all night in the rainy night, one by one they were not lightly tired, they were not lightly frozen, their lips were white, and they did not have much fighting spirit at all.

"Throne! Ahead is Xue Cheng. Suddenly, a soldier of the Ying Long Army pointed to the faint city in front of him and was excited.

"Okay, after a night of driving, it's finally here!" Ji Feng was overjoyed, as long as they entered Xue City, they would be completely safe, even if the Qing army chased them, there was no way to take them.

With Xue Cheng close in front of him, all the soldiers were overjoyed, and without Ji Feng's order, the pace accelerated a lot.

Finally, tens of thousands of soldiers came to the city exhausted, one by one they were so tired that they wanted to lie on the ground, thinking that they would soon be able to enter the city to rest, the soldiers were all excited, and even Ji Feng and Lu Yanshou were obviously relieved.

Immediately, a scout on a horse rushed forward and shouted at the tower.

"The soldiers of the city, we are the military horses of Jining City, quickly open the city gate!"

"Open the gates!" No response was heard, and the soldier shouted again.

Well? Ji Feng stared at the Xue Cheng Tower, the corners of his eyes jumped slightly, it was so strange that there was no reaction on the city tower, this is impossible, it is too wrong, unless

"Hahahaha, Ming Dog, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" There was a laugh from the city tower, and hundreds of Qing soldiers appeared.

"Not good! Xue Cheng has been occupied by the Qing army, and there is an ambush! Hurry back! Ji Feng was furious and ordered loudly!

However, it was still a step too late.

"Boom" The earth roared, accompanied by the sound of the neighing of war horses.

"Kill" shouted to kill, and countless Qing army iron horsemen rushed out from the left and right sides, like a tiger descending the mountain.

The two armies immediately fought together, Ji Feng roared angrily, and retreated with tens of thousands of soldiers while fighting, and many disabled soldiers lying on the stretcher were lifted off the stretcher by this sudden chaos and fell heavily to the ground, but at this moment, not many people can care about them, it is these people who have added countless corpses along the way, and they are extremely miserable.

If it weren't for Ji Feng and Ying Long's soldiers desperately resisting and getting a chance to breathe for the army, the 60,000 ordinary Ming troops were likely to collapse under the sudden blow just now, but although the army has not collapsed for the time being, its morale is low, like a defeated division, and it is difficult to fight hard with the Qing army's iron cavalry.

At this critical moment, Ying Longjun's tenacious quality was truly demonstrated.

Duoduo rode on the war horse, secretly admiring, this Ying Long Army is indeed worthy of being known as the first elite of the Ming Dynasty, it is really not comparable to the ordinary Ming army, it is a big trouble for the Qing Dynasty, and it must perish!

"Herald! Capture Ji Feng of the first army of the Dragon Army! Dodor coldly ordered.

For Ji Feng, Duoduo admired, but also gritted his teeth, the battle under the city of Tai'an was not only the shame of Azig, but also the shame of the entire Qing Dynasty, this Ying Long army not only wanted to be destroyed, but Ji Feng was also going to be captured alive in front of the whole world!

"Retreat! Hurry back! Ji Feng yelled, and the army fought and retreated! At the cost of heavy losses, he retreated four miles away with difficulty, but at this moment, there was also a sound of earth-shattering shouts from the rear, and the 100,000 Qing troops who were pursuing all the way from Jining City also arrived.

"It's not good, the chasing soldiers from Jining have also arrived, I'll wait for the death of the sky!"

There are enemies on all sides, and there is no way for the army to retreat! Ji Feng's face was dead, could it be that the first army of the Ying Long Army and tens of thousands of troops were going to be buried in his hands today! He Ji Feng is ashamed of his trust in the emperor!

"Commander Ji, there is a hillside on the right, we will retreat to the hillside, and we will be able to hold on until reinforcements arrive!" Lu Yanshou shouted at Ji Feng.

Ji Feng turned his head to look, and there was indeed a hillside half a mile away on the right, and according to the hillside, it might be able to support it for a while longer, so he immediately made a decision.

Ji Feng didn't pin his hopes on reinforcements at all, because he knew that Xue Cheng was the only way to retreat, and now it was cut off, even if the reinforcements arrived under Xue Cheng, they had to recapture Xue Cheng, otherwise there would be no reinforcements to get them at all.

"Retreat up the hill!" Ji Feng did not hesitate, led the rest of the army to retreat up the hillside, in this desperate situation, the only way to fight to the death, the worst can kill and injure the Qing army more, even if the whole army is really annihilated, he also vows to let the Qing army break a few teeth.

After the army retreated up the hillside, Ji Feng ordered the remaining numbers to be counted.

At this time, including Ying Long's army, there were still 60,000 capable soldiers and thousands of disabled soldiers left. Ji Feng's heart was dripping blood, in that short period of time, the army had lost more than 10,000 soldiers, and the losses were too heavy.

"Hmph, Trapped Beast Fight!" Dodor smiled coldly.

At the foot of the hillside, countless Qing army iron horsemen rushed back and forth, and this hillside was besieged.

"Attack!" Duoduo gave a brazen order.

Countless arrows rained down on the hillside.

The screams were intensive, countless Ming soldiers were hit by arrows, there was chaos on the hillside, the morale of the soldiers was low, and their faces were panicked, and even the soldiers of the Ying Long Army were pale and a little desperate.

"Fight to the death!" There were no superfluous words, Ji Feng stood in the center of the army and roared, his momentum was cold, with the taste of iron and decisiveness.

All the soldiers of the Ying Long Army looked at Ji Feng, and under the influence of Ji Feng, all the soldiers of the Ying Long Army gradually returned to their composure, and resolutely followed and shouted: "Fight to the death!" Fight to the death! Swear to die and not be a slave to the country! ”

After all, the soldiers of the Ying Long Army have undergone special training, and they have been tempered by several brilliant victories, as long as they are guided a little, they can make their fighting spirit boil.

Such a resolute shout, boiling war spirit, the impact is huge.

50,000 ordinary soldiers of the Ming Army looked at the soldiers of the Ying Long Army who were boiling with their fighting spirit and full of determination, at this time, they had to bow their heads, and sure enough, the soldiers of the Ying Long Army were worthy of being the emperor's pro-army, whether it was military salary or equipment, they were better than them, and even the fighting spirit was not comparable to them.

is also a member of the Ming Dynasty, why are they worse than Ying Longjun!

Many ordinary soldiers were dissatisfied in their hearts, which gradually turned into morale, and they raised their arms and roared: "Fight to the death!" Long live the Ming Dynasty! ”

Someone took the lead and someone followed, and gradually, not only the soldiers of the Ying Long Army, but all the ordinary soldiers shouted together, and the voices converged together, the momentum shook the sky, and the fighting spirit soared into the sky!

"It can't be!" Duoduo's complexion changed, and it was extremely ugly!

How could the Ming army recover so quickly, this kind of morale, as if it had recovered its peak, this should not be what a defeated army besieged by regiments can have, the Ming army has always been weak and incompetent, and it should all collapse at this time.

"Attack!" Duoduo was furious, he couldn't accept all this at all, and the fear he felt when he attacked Linyi City once again clouded his heart.

Countless arrows flew densely in the sky like rain, like locusts in the sky, covering the sky and the sun.

"Bang Bang Bang"

Suddenly, a dense burst of gunfire rang out on the hillside, and white smoke rose into the sky, which was the sound of Ying Long's musket firing.

It turned out that all the ammunition of Ying Longjun was wrapped in paper shells, and the paper shells were also coated with a layer of waterproof tung oil to ensure that the gunpowder inside would not be penetrated by the rain.

Under the leadership of Ji Feng, together with nearly 10,000 Yinglong troops, 60,000 troops relied on the commanding heights of the hillside to fight desperately in the Qing army.

"Hateful!" Duoduo's face was not very good-looking, although he had seen Ying Longjun's paper shell bullets, and he expected it, but he was still angry at the moment, it was originally a sudden attack of the rout battle and the pursuit battle, but at this moment it has evolved into a hard-fought battle to the death, how can this not make him angry!

However, no matter what, it is imperative to completely annihilate these tens of thousands of Ming troops!
