The Qing army was in an offensive formation, which was not conducive to defense, and Geng Zhongming did not have any troops to defend, as soon as the Eight Banners were defeated, the green battalions attacking from the other two sides could not support it for a long time, and they were immediately defeated and fled together.

At this time, the Ming army attacked on all fronts, especially the two thousand cavalry, and suddenly killed him, and there were only 1,000 personal soldiers left around him, and there were already two loose and scattered green battalion defeated soldiers.

Although there were still seven or eight thousand men of these soldiers and horses, they were not enough to see in the wilderness, let alone resist the sudden slaughter of the cavalry.

Now that the army is defeated, he is the first to bear the brunt, Geng Zhongming immediately beat his horse and left, and a thousand personal soldiers rushed up, sacrificing their lives to resist Wang Shixiu's 2,000 cavalry.

But they didn't have a tight formation, how could they ride on foot, and most of them were knocked over by the cavalry in an instant, Wang Shixiu held his horse and spear, and directly killed the Qing soldiers.

In the military department of the Qing army, Geng Zhongming ran away, but Wang Qi Daxu is still there, this Daxu flag is the command center of the entire army and a symbol of the commander. On the battlefield, for the army, if the flag is there, it will advance, and if the flag is gone, it will indicate a great defeat.

Geng Zhongming was the prince of the Qing court, and the Manchus also imitated the Han system, so his Daxu banner was exceptionally tall, one level higher than Wang Yan's Daxu.

With such a tall flag, an ordinary person can't hold it, so he has two flag bearers, and there are six flag guards.

They were all strong men, and they must not lose the flag without an order, they saw that Geng Zhongming had run away, so they hurriedly pulled out the flag, but the flagpole was too deep, but it was not easy to pull it out.

Wang Shixiu rode forward and didn't see Geng Zhongming, so he naturally ran to Daxu, he stabbed a flag guard to death with a spear, but the remaining flag bearers gave up Daxu and killed him together.

Shixiu was originally a living in Yangzhou, and he had no power to tie the chicken, but since he invaded the south and his homeland was destroyed, he was determined to follow Wang Yan, abandon the Confucian crown, and follow the army, determined to drive out the Tartars and restore the rivers and mountains.

Over the past year, he has developed a skill on the battlefield, but after all, the time is short, and although he has trained hard, he is still no match for the five elite flag guards.

At this time, he rushed too quickly, but he distanced himself from the brigade, and for a while, he blocked the left and right branches, and suddenly he was in danger, but at this moment, a somewhat immature voice suddenly sounded, "Don't panic in a thousand households, and the public is thrifty!" ”

But it was Zhou Zebin, the general banner, who held a horse and a gun, and rushed up to kill.

The two joined hands, and the Ming army team killed, and the two were stabbed to death again in an instant, killing the flag bearers and flag guards of the Qing soldiers, and then Wang Shixiu suddenly pulled out his waist knife and cut off the flagpole in one fell swoop.

Although Geng Zhongming's army is indeed relatively elite, and the Zhenghuang Banner is even more powerful, the green battalions can only fight with the wind, and once they are frustrated, their morale is immediately low.

At this time, the yellow flag was running back, and the other two Qing troops were also running wildly, and the four thousand green battalions that were originally surrounded by two thousand Ming troops, as well as the defeated green battalions that had retreated earlier, immediately retreated, and the whole army retreated like a tide, and under the pursuit of the Ming army, the retreat soon became a rout, and they were chased by the Ming army for more than 50 miles, and the dead were everywhere.

Wang Shixiu led the cavalry to pursue directly to Jingzhou, and Geng Zhongming except for 3,000 cavalry, who retreated into Jingzhou City, all the other soldiers and horses were killed and scattered by the Ming army.

In this battle, the Ming army's largest loss ratio was that Zhang Youde's 2,000 infantry army killed more than 800 people, almost half, this time more than 1,300 people died in the car battalion, and more than 200 cavalry and sentry cavalry died combined.

At the cost of nearly 2,500 people, the Ming army defeated Geng Zhongming's army of 30,000, Geng Zhongming's Zhenghuang Banner, only more than 2,000 people remained, and the green battalion soldiers only had nearly 1,000 cavalry, and fled into Jingzhou City.

The losses of the Qing soldiers can be described as heavy, but the Ming army actually killed only more than 8,000 people, and most of the Qing soldiers scattered and fled except for being captured.

For Wang Yan, he could have won a little more this time, but he had too few cavalry, and when he chased and killed the defeated army, he couldn't cope with the defeated army all over the mountain.

After this battle, Wang Yan's biggest gain, in addition to completely crippling the Zhenghuang Banner of the Han army and killing nearly 5,000 elite cavalry, followed by harvesting a large number of war horses, materials, and ten Hongyi cannons.

Firearms were originally a sharp weapon for the Ming Dynasty to deal with the Manchus, and the enemy chief Nurhachi was injured by the Hongyi cannon, but it was precisely because firearms were mainly used to deal with the Manchus, so the heavy artillery was mostly placed in the north, and the south was relatively stable because it was relatively stable, so there were not many heavy artillery.

Now that all the northern lands have fallen, these important weapons of the country have also fallen into the hands of the Qing court, and the Ming army in the south has no red-coated cannons.

Wang Yan didn't have one in his camp, and now he has ten gates, whether he fights Jingzhou or Changde, it is an absolute weapon.

When the Ming army cleaned up the battlefield and lightly ordered supplies, the frightened Geng Zhongming fled into Jingzhou, and the guard general Zheng Siwei was shocked when he saw this.

In the previous battle of Jingzhou, although he held Jingzhou, but the losses were also very heavy, now he has not received anything, and he will face the attack of the Ming army, and he can still defeat Geng Zhongming's elite Ming army, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Zheng Siwei was originally the Jingzhou guard general of Dashun, and after Li Zicheng went east to Wuchang, he sold Jingzhou to the Qing court, so that the Qing army copied the ass of the Dashun army, and finally Li Zicheng was also killed.

The remnants of the Shun army hated him for betraying his lord for glory, so when the Shun army besieged the city, even if it was difficult, he had no intention of opening the city and surrendering.

Because he knew that if he fell into the hands of the Shun army, he would definitely have to kill Li Zicheng and end up with this one.

Now that the Shun army has taken refuge in the Daimyo, he naturally can't surrender to the Ming Dynasty, so in the face of the upcoming Wang Yan army, Zheng Siwei has no choice but to fight to the death again to wait for the arrival of Qing reinforcements.

At that moment, he discussed with Geng Zhongming, so he hurriedly wrote a report, Pegasus went to catch up with Luckdehun, and wrote a letter to inform Shen Zhixiang, the Qing army general of Changde, but at this time Wang Yan had already sent sentry cavalry to block the Yangtze River, and the letter sent to Changde was robbed by him.

On 14 February, only a month after the Battle of Jingzhou ended, Wang Yan's army once again approached the city.

At this time, his troops were reduced to 15,000 men, which was the same as the number of troops in the city, so he did not besiege the city, but garrisoned the east of the city, and ordered 3,000 green battalions to take prisoners and build a camp.

When Wang Yan arrived in Jingzhou, in the vast mountains of western Hubei Province, a young general was riding a horse, and beside him was a half-hundred Confucian who was also riding a horse.

"Master Wang, the Duke of Chu is your clan brother, what is his attitude towards the rest of our Shun army, do you know a thing or two?"
