This should be Jiang Zhengxi's troops attacking the enemy, and Zhu Linmiao immediately ordered the whole army to speed up and rush to the place where the two armies were fighting.

After a while, he suddenly heard the sound of the cymbal, he frowned slightly, and secretly wondered in his heart, I don't know if this was because the captive army was invincible and ordered to retreat, or Jiang Zhengxi's people couldn't resist the retreat in Mingjin.

While he was thinking, he saw several horses speeding towards him. Shi Lin immediately ordered his own soldiers to block Zhu Linmiao behind him, raise the flint gun together, and pull the bolt to be cautious.

The cavalry ran forty or fifty paces away from the Dragon Guard and stopped, and one of them shouted, "Purple Qi is coming from the east." ”

It turned out that before Wang Xian's men and horses were gathered, a scout horse hurriedly came to report, saying that a large group of men and horses were found galloping from the north side.

Wang Xiangang and Fan Shaozu had a quarrel, and they didn't dare to be hasty at the moment, so they urgently ordered their personal guards to bring a few people to question with the password, and on the other hand, they hurriedly ordered the team to be gathered in order to prepare for the enemy attack.

When Zhu Linmiao heard the words "Purple Qi from the East", he knew that it was Jianyu.

After defeating Zhang Yingmeng's men, Jin Jie reported to him that Jianyu had shouted at him in front of the battle, "Purple Qi comes from the east".

He immediately asked Shi Lin to interrogate several captured Jianyu officers. The captives could not stand Shi Lin's way of "talking", and soon confessed that this was a password for them to recognize each other at night, along with how to answer each other.

Zhu Linmiao glanced at Shi Lin, and the latter immediately said loudly: "Thousands of generations." North wind? ”

"Move mountains."

Zhu Linmiao nodded and instructed Shi Lin in a low voice, "Just say that we are Zhang Yingmeng's department, and try to deal with each other's details." ”

"My own people." Shi Lin continued to shout, "We are General Zhang's people, which of you are under the command of your lord?" ”

"We are the Ministry of Wang Zuoling."

Zhu Linmiao said in a low voice again: "Ask who they are fighting with, and who Mingjin has retreated." ”

Shi Lin shouted again, and the other party said dejectedly: "But it was the water that washed the Dragon King Temple." When Fang Cai Fan returned from the camp, he was mistakenly taken for a southerner attack on the village, and Lord Erdenbu ordered my general to lead a team to meet the battle. Counselor Fan sent someone to contact, Fang Zhi had a misunderstanding, and my general ordered the guards. ”

In this way, there are all Jianyu ahead, so where is Jiang Zhengxi? Zhu Linmiao looked from afar, and saw that the two Qing army teams were entangled in the night, and it seemed that the "misunderstanding" just now had caused them some confusion.

"Send hussars to continue to explore the traces of Jiang Zhengxi's department."

"Yes!"

Zhu Linmiao whispered to Shi Lin, "Capture the captives who came to join the joint first, torture them carefully, and beware of fraud." ”

"Yes!"

Shi Lin immediately loudly talked to Wang Zuoling's people to distract them, and while signaling the second platoon of his own soldiers to extinguish the torches, he quietly touched those people.

Zhu Linmiao looked at the scene of the people shouting and neighing in front of him, and couldn't help but smile slightly, "Although Jiang Zhengxi was not found, this trip was not in vain." Since Jiannu is in chaos, we will give him a ride. ”

He turned around and ordered Zhu Jiadi and Zhao Shichao, "Taking advantage of the unorganized formation of the captive army, the heavy cavalry battalion broke through from the middle of the enemy and divided it." Hussars followed, creating confusion in enemy formations. At the moment, the identity of our army is not clear, and this point can be put to good use. ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Linmiao continued to command: "Xia Fu first led his dragoons to go around to the west side of Jianyu to form a formation to block the captives who wanted to flee back to the enemy camp.

"The infantry was deployed in a line formation with battalions as a unit, forming a semi-encirclement posture against the enemy's formation. When the cavalry disrupts the enemy's formation, immediately move forward and kill the enemy. It is not easy to command at night, and the battalions should pay attention to coordinating with each other to ensure that they do not mess up.

"The pro-soldier company and the hunters are in reserve, ready to respond at any time."

"Yes!"

The officers of the Long Guard Army left to carry out the order, and the second platoon of the pro-soldiers here had already captured the people sent by Wang Xian.

After a while, Shi Lin said to Zhu Linmi: "My lord, the soldiers have just been captured, and in front of them is the Qing army under Wang Xian and Fan Shaozu, with a total of more than 6,000 people. There were three cannons in the enemy camp, and the fire should be within reach. ”

Zhu Linmiao nodded, "It's okay, it's a quick decision." Eat the thousands of captives in front of us, and we will immediately leave the battlefield. ”

……

Wang Xian had not seen the return of the guards sent to the joints for a long time, and he was anxious when he heard the sound of heavy horses' hooves from far and near. He was familiar with the sound, the movement of the cavalry as they charged.

He shouted in his heart that it was not good, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers who had just retreated to form a formation to the north to meet the enemy.

I didn't want the cavalry to be far away, so he shouted "Purple Qi comes from the east" and "We are General Zhang's people", which made Wang Xian suddenly a little confused. His subordinates even looked back at the commander, not knowing how to respond.

And Fan Shaozu's side was even more chaotic. A moment ago, the man sent by Fan Shaozu to give the password finally rushed back and reported to him that it was Wang Xian's soldiers and horses who were fighting him.

Fan Shaozu was wondering why the "enemy army" was suddenly defeated and retreated, and only then did he suddenly realize, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that his people had chased Wang Xian's department for more than 100 steps, and they were cutting hard.

He hurriedly ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, but some of his own soldiers pointed to the north side and exclaimed that there was a cavalry attack.

Fan Shaozu was taken aback, although he suspected in his heart that these might still be his own people, but they were difficult to identify in the middle of the night, so he had to line up to defend first.

He had to shout again to line up on the north side of the horse, ready to meet the enemy.

The men and horses of his department had a rare full meal tonight, and at this time they were in the midst of a fight, when they suddenly heard the sound of the Chinese army, so they had to let go of the "enemy army" and turned around and retreated.

But as soon as he retreated a few steps, he heard Wang Xian's order to line up to meet the enemy. Under the dim torches, he couldn't see the direction of the Ling Qi clearly, and immediately a junior officer understood that Ming Jin just now was a mistake, and the main general still ordered him to meet the enemy, so he raised his sword and led the team to rush towards Wang Xian's side.

Some officers also heard that Ming Jin was lined up to meet the enemy, thinking that it was too scattered when they were chasing the enemy, and the main general asked him to stop and sort out the formation. So he hurriedly ordered the formation of a formation.

There are also those who retreat to the main formation at a loss with the order of Ming Jin, and there are those who correctly understand Wang Xian's intention to line up on the north side. The most messy thing was the soldiers guarding the grain wagons, and the people sent by Wang Xian to burn the "siege equipment" had not yet been far away, and they came to look back, not knowing whether to go to the north to meet the enemy or to continue to guard the grain and grass.

The Zhu family brother pointed forward with the cavalry sword in his hand and ordered loudly.

"Fast forward!"

"Charge!"

The night was dark, and he couldn't see clearly when he was far away before, and he thought that he would face the prisoners who were waiting for him.

Unexpectedly, when he rushed to about thirty paces away from the enemy, he was shocked to see that the enemy was in chaos as if he was rushing to a market. Although there were several captives gathered in one place, swords and spears rushed out, barely putting on a posture of defending against the enemy, but the vast majority of the captives were huddled together in a chaotic manner.

There were even people fighting each other within the captive army.

In an instant, he selected an undefended place and shouted, "Kill!" He swung his sword and rushed straight in.
