Immediately, Du Xun, the eunuch who supervised the army, asked the Ming army in Daizhou City to retreat to Taiyuan with him, and even asked Qi Wei to accompany him.

In fact, it was Du Xun who fell in love with the 10,000 elite people in Qi Wei's hands and was reluctant to let them go.

Lu Xiangsheng was not in Daizhou, and the other Ming army generals did not dare to offend Du Xun, who was carrying Shang Fang's sword and came strongly, let alone question him.

But Qi Wei is different, not to mention a small eunuch of the prison army, a broken sword, even if Chongzhen personally gave him an order, if there was no Li Zixiao's consent, he would not listen.

Besides, Qi Wei knew from the beginning that Du Xun was not a good thing, and at this time he didn't believe Du Xun's words at all.

Qi Wei had just returned to Daizhou from Yanmen Pass, but in half a day, Lu Xiangsheng personally sat in Yanmen Pass, and he still had 20,000 horses in his hands.

How could it be broken by the Qing army in just half a day, so Qi Wei decided that Du Xun was lying.

But Qi Wei dared to resist Du Xun's order, and other Ming generals did not dare.

Seeing that the 20,000 Ming troops in Daizhou City were forced by Du Xun to leave Daizhou for Taiyuan, Qi Wei could only look at each other coldly and couldn't stop it.

But Du Xun wanted Qi Wei to also lead the White Dragon Army and go to Taiyuan with him, but it was impossible.

As a result, Du Xun thought that with 20,000 Ming troops in his hands, he could coerce Qi Wei, and ordered the Ming army to surround the White Dragon Army, and even snatched the baggage in Qi Wei's army.

In fact, since Qi Wei led the White Dragon Army to follow Lu Xiang into Shanxi, he has always had a bad relationship with the Ming army that traveled with him.

On the one hand, Qi Wei and these Ming army generals have never had anything to do with each other, and even Qi Wei was once charged with 'rebellion'.

And Li Zixiao has also been notorious in the past two years, at least in the imperial court, everyone knows that Li Zixiao is the 'feudal town' of the Ming Dynasty, and those Ming generals have no good attitude towards Qi Wei.

In this regard, Qi Wei didn't bother to deal with these generals, and had almost no contact with them, except for Lu Xiangsheng's orders, he never communicated with other generals.

On the other hand, the luxurious equipment of the White Dragon Army has always been the target of other Ming army generals.

These generals of the Ming army, how have they ever seen a team from generals to soldiers, all wearing three layers of heavy armor, even the five thousand city defense soldiers in Qi Wei's army, all of them are two layers of armor.

The 10,000 people in Qi Wei's army had already changed into cotton clothes, and they brought their own grain, grass, ammunition, and medicine, and more than a dozen four-wheeled carriages pulled by the baggage alone.

The wealth of the White Dragon Army made those Ming army generals red-eyed, if it weren't for Lu Xiang's pressure, these Ming army generals would have conspired to rob Qi Wei a long time ago.

Now, Du Xun ordered to take action against Qi Wei, and several generals in Daizhou, although they were a little worried in their hearts, they also thought that this was an opportunity.

An opportunity to rob Qi Wei, as for Lu Xiangsheng's recklessness afterwards, if he blames him, they can completely put all the blame on Du Xun.

As a result, more than 20,000 soldiers of the Ming army in Daizhou did not go to Yanmen Pass to resist the Qing soldiers, but surrounded Qi Wei at the north gate of Daizhou.

Du Xun and others asked Qi Wei's men and horses to lay down their weapons, but Qi Wei decisively refused.

Immediately, Qi Wei decisively ordered a breakthrough, he knew that at this time, it was meaningless to talk to these Ming army generals about any reason.

Moreover, he knew that Lu Xiangsheng was in Yanmen Pass, and he was afraid that he was in danger at this time, and he had to rush to support as soon as possible.

This does not mean how loyal Qi Wei is to Lu Xiangsheng or Daming, it is entirely because this is an order given to Qi Wei by Li Zixiao.

So, Qi Wei fought a battle with 20,000 Ming troops in the north of Daizhou City.

Qi Wei's 5,000 soldiers of the White Dragon Army and 5,000 soldiers of the City Defense Army spent an hour to defeat the 20,000 Ming troops who surrounded them, and then they were able to continue to advance towards Yanmen Pass.

In this battle, in fact, the confrontation between the two sides lasted far longer than the war.

These Ming army generals didn't want to start a war with Qi Wei, and at first they wanted to scare Qi Wei and force him to comply, even if they couldn't get Qi Wei to order surrender, they could get some benefits.

But they didn't expect that Qi Wei was so tough, he just sent someone to inform them to give way, and after they refused, they directly attacked them.

After the rows of musketeers alternately marched, the loud gunfire rang out for a long time, and the Ming soldiers who tried to stop them fell in pieces, and soon the Ming army was defeated.

Those generals of the Ming army saw the strength of the White Dragon Army's musketeers, and they caused them so many casualties in a short period of time, and they didn't dare to stop them anymore, and let Qi Wei leave.

And because of their trouble, even if these Ming generals actually didn't believe Du Xun's words very much, thinking that most of the Yanmen Pass was not lost.

But they didn't dare to go to Yanmen Pass anymore, for fear that they would be punished by Lu Xiangsheng, so they all tacitly followed Du Xun, left Daizhou, and went to Taiyuan.

Moreover, what is even more odious is that before leaving, these Ming army generals did not forget to give an order, not only took away the small amount of grain stored by the Daizhou Mansion, but also let their subordinates plunder the people of Daizhou.

Even they said in the name that the Tartars were about to be killed, and the money and grain left in the hands of the people of Daizhou would only be cheaper, so it was better to hand them over to them to defend against the Tartars.

The shameless words of Du Xun and others will also make Daizhou Zhizhou angry, and he will be scolded as a spy of the Tartars.

Immediately, Du Xun left Daizhou with 20,000 Ming troops and went to Taiyuan.

When the heralds sent by Lu Xiangsheng returned to Daizhou for help, Du Xun and other 20,000 Ming troops had already left Daizhou.

When the time was close to five o'clock in the afternoon, the 10,000 horses led by Qi Wei finally arrived at Yanmen Pass.

"Marshal, look south, our reinforcements have arrived."

A guard shouted excitedly at Lu Xiangsheng.

"Reinforcements have arrived?"

Immediately, Lu Xiangsheng raised the clairvoyant mirror and looked towards the south, only to see an army of 10,000 people had arrived outside the southern gate of Yanmen Pass.

Through his clairvoyant mirror, Lu Xiangsheng could clearly see the handsome flag with the word 'Qi' on the side of the White Dragon Army, as well as the armor of the soldiers of the White Dragon Army that was different from the Ming Army.

"It's Qi Wei's centaurs, why haven't you seen other centaurs? Didn't the herald sent by Ben Shuai pass the order to Daizhou? ”

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng also flashed such doubts in his heart.

"Ahhh

But immediately, the west wall was very close to the wall of the main gatehouse, and at this time there was a scream, and a large number of Qing soldiers had already killed.

Although, with Bao Yufeng leading nearly 200 veterans of the Tianxiong Army to fight before, even Lu Xiangsheng regathered some of the Ming soldiers who had retreated and returned to the western section of the wall.

However, with a large number of Qing troops attacking from the western section of the wall, the western section of the wall has basically been controlled by the Qing soldiers, as many as nearly 2,000 Qing soldiers have already climbed the wall.

At this time, a small number of elite Qing soldiers were even about to kill Lu Xiangsheng's main customs building, and a small number of Qing soldiers had already entered the customs along the wall.

"Marshal, the Qing soldiers are coming, you better retreat into the pass."

There was a guard next to him who was anxious and persuaded Lu Xiangsheng.

"What to retreat, you hurry up and give Qi Wei an order, let him enter the customs quickly and take back Guanxi, whether he can hold Yanmen Pass or not, it all depends on him.

Ben Shuai really has no soldiers to send. Lu Xiangsheng said to the guards behind him.

"Yes, I'm going to give orders."

"Kill!"

After the chief of the personal guard behind him left, Lu Xiangsheng turned his head and looked at the western section of the city wall.

At this time, the Qing soldiers who were closest to him were only less than 100 paces, and they were fighting with Bao Yufeng and other Ming army soldiers.

Poof!

Bao Yufeng was old and strong, carrying a broad-faced broadsword, leading more than a dozen veterans of the Tianxiong Army to fight with the Qing soldiers, and chop off the arm of a Qing soldier.

Whoosh!

A rain of arrows flew outside the city, mainly covering the side of the Ming army, and an arrow shot at Bao Yufeng's waist, making him snort.

With a backhand, he cut off the blade of the arrow inserted in his waist, endured the severe pain, and continued to rush into the Qing army.

Around him, a veteran of the Tianxiong Army kept falling, and they used their lives to block the menacing Qing elite who tried to kill Guan Lou.

Lu Xiangsheng stood on the Guan Tower, looking at the bloody battle of Bao Yufeng and other Ming soldiers who were less than a hundred steps away from him, his eyes moistened.

But then, he turned around suddenly, drew his sword from his waist, and shouted to more than a dozen personal guards behind him: "Soldiers, are you ready to fight with your commander?" ”

"I am willing to die for the handsome." The guards shouted in unison.

"Okay, then now, let's go out with Ben Shuai, support General Bao, kill!"

Lu Xiangsheng took the initiative to lead the guards behind him, rushed out of the gate, and a big banner with the word 'Lu' was held by a guard to follow them, waving in the wind.

"Kill!"

Lu Xiangsheng and others, who suddenly entered the battle group, although there were not many people, but with that handsome flag, they gave more motivation to the other Ming soldiers who were still fighting the wall.

"Dashuai, why are you here?"

Lu Xiangsheng led people to Bao Yufeng's side and killed the Qing soldiers back.

"General Bao, are you alright?"

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng saw that Bao Yufeng's armor was stained red with blood, and there were traces of slashing on the armor, and there were two broken arrows stuck in his back waist and left arm, so he hurriedly asked.

"Haha, don't worry, the old man can't die, even if he dies, he has to fight back these Jiannu."

Bao Yufeng said heroically.

"Okay, General Bao, this marshal is now fighting side by side with you, General Qi Wei's reinforcements have arrived, as long as you can recapture the wall on this side of Kansai, Qinggou will not be able to break the pass."

Bang bang bang!

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, there was a loud sound of muskets on a road in the west.

"Array, pay attention to the formation, don't mess up, move forward with this, and explore the way with foot."

In Yanmen Pass, Qi Wei, who had already led the army into the pass at this time, quickly understood the crisis situation in Yanmen Pass at this time, and also received an order sent by Lu Xiangsheng.

Immediately, Qi Wei divided his 10,000 men into ten thousand-man squads, each of which had 700 musketeers and 300 sword and shield fighters to support the Ming army on the wall.

"Forward, shoot!"

Bang bang bang!

As each team of the White Dragon Army squads followed the horse road and killed the wall, they were seven or eight people in a team, advancing alternately with each other, constantly firing at the Qing soldiers who appeared in front.

With such a close shot, these White Dragon Musketeers were able to hit their targets with great accuracy.

At the same time, on their flanks, they were followed by two columns of sword and shield men, and if the Qing soldiers rushed over and rushed close to the musketeers of the White Dragon Army, the musketeers had not been able to shoot them.

At this time, the sword and shield soldiers will rush out in time to stop them.

After the White Dragon Army musketeers boarded the wall, the situation became complicated, and many Ming soldiers and Qing soldiers were strangled together and blocked on the not very wide wall.

At this time, the Qing soldiers also spotted these White Dragon Army musketeers who appeared, and looked at their companions who had been shot in front of them.

The soldiers were all very clever and immediately recognized the great threat posed by the musketeers, and were quick to think of ways to deal with or evade them.

The best way to deal with the musketeers was to rush in front of them, and the best way to avoid the musketeers' fire was to strangle with the Ming soldiers.

The Qing soldiers thought that they were entangled with the Ming army, and they would make the new White Dragon Army musketeers throw rat weapons.

Then, find a way to get close to the White Dragon Musketeers and kill them in close combat.

To be honest, once the Qing soldiers rushed close to the musketeers of the White Dragon Army, it would really cause them a huge amount of damage.

With just a few dozen Qing soldiers, once they are killed in the ranks of the White Dragon Army musketeers, it is enough to disrupt their formation, and as the Qing soldiers follow behind, then this team of White Dragon Army musketeers is basically over.

Therefore, Qi Wei gave an order to every White Dragon Army general who boarded the wall, that is, no enemy should be allowed to approach them.

Their mission is to kill and kill, empty the entire wall, and reoccupy the western section of the wall.

In fact, Qi Wei's order can still be understood in this way, that is, once the musket team of the White Dragon Army climbs the city wall, whether it is the Qing soldiers who have been killed or the Ming army that has been defeated, they are not allowed to approach them, they are all killed.

Because, Qi Wei is also very helpless at this point, at this time, the flintlock pistol of the White Dragon Army is really very limited.

In particular, in fact, the White Dragon Musketeers are not very suitable for this kind of melee combat against the wall, which is not to mention if the Tartars do not attack the wall.

The White Dragon Musketeers hid behind the wall, and just shot at the Qing soldiers below.

But now the Qing soldiers have climbed the wall, especially the Qing soldiers and the Ming army are entangled together.

If Qi Wei ordered that the generals with musketeers should also be separated from the Ming army, and the Ming army must not be killed.

The Qing soldiers were not stupid, they could hide behind the retreating Ming army and get close to the musketeers of the White Dragon Army.

The musketeers of the White Dragon Army, fighting in the narrow terrain of the wall, can only advance, as long as there is a front of him, all are enemies, all of them are shot, there is no other way.

At this time, Qi Wei must not appear as a woman's benevolence.

Therefore, when Qi Wei issued this order and sent ten thousand-man musketeers to the western section of the city wall, the Qing soldiers and Ming troops above were all the targets they shot and killed.

Although Qi Wei knew that after this battle, Lu Xiangsheng was likely to ask him for his guilt because of this incident.

In Qi Wei's knowledge, this is also the only way to avoid letting the White Dragon Army musketeers avoid too much loss.

Between the White Dragon Army and the Ming Army, Qi Wei decisively chose to sacrifice the soldiers of the Ming Army, even if Lu Xiangsheng blamed him afterwards, he didn't care.
