"The first battalion and the second battalion rushed up to fence the clear dogs, and the third battalion went to deal with the clear dogs who shot arrows!"

Li Guoan saw that his array was a little chaotic by the Qing army, so he shouted loudly and gave an order. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Hearing the order, the officers and men of the 1st and 2nd Battalions hurriedly rushed forward and surrounded the Qing troops who rushed in regardless of casualties. The soldiers of the third battalion also rushed towards the Qing troops who were firing arrows.

The first battalion is Li Guoan's old foundation, and the second battalion is the old foundation of the town general Zhao Ziqiang. The soldiers in the battalion and their families also received a lot of war dividends from the previous battles of the Taiping Army, so this will also be tenacious, and some soldiers did not think of running away after the officers were killed in battle, but gritted their teeth and rushed forward with spears.

The benefits obtained on weekdays are not enough to make these former green battalion soldiers desperate, but the cruel family and family sitting method in their hearts has a greater threat than the Qing army, so that even if the Ming army falls behind, the Qing army can't expand the results in a short period of time, because these Ming troops are different from those they used to face, they don't dare to retreat at all, and they don't want to retreat.

Not far away, seeing the heavy casualties of the A Brigade under the impact of the Qing army, Zhao Ziqiang was in pain. He knew that many of the soldiers who died in battle were veterans who had been with him for many years, and if it was possible, he would not let his descendants be damaged like this. But at the moment, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and if you don't fight, you have to fight, and it's not about thinking about casualties or casualties at all, but fighting to the death.

Against the water, Zhao Ziqiang can't do it, because he can't look at the national security. If he really wants to surrender, he Zhao Ziqiang will not surrender to Xian Guoan, who is also a Han Chinese, but will go to the Manchurians to surrender. Surrender is also divided into good and bad, surrender to the second Tartar can have the face of surrendering to the big Tartar, and the future of the come?

But the current situation is that he Zhao Ziqiang is willing to surrender, and the other party is afraid that he will not treat him. Line Guoan came down from Guizhou all the way, but he killed a lot of prisoners and people, Zhao Ziqiang didn't think about anything else, he also had to consider whether Line Guoan would kill himself as well. Besides, the fifth town is defeated, and the situation in Guangxi will be as he wishes?

If Zhou Shixiang does not die for a day, Zhao Ziqiang will not have the idea of rebelling for a day, because he is not afraid of anyone, he is afraid of Zhou Shixiang, and he will serve Zhou Shixiang alone. If you don't accept it, you Zhao Ziqiang can have the ability to start from scratch, and in two or three years, he will pull out a team of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, sit in two provinces, and make the dog emperor of the Qing court uncomfortable?

"Hit, knock down!"

Zhao Ziqiang can be regarded as having figured it out, since he can't be good today, then fight him for a mother. It doesn't matter if the soldiers are gone, it doesn't matter if they are defeated, what matters is whether he Zhao Ziqiang can go back. He believes that even if he really loses and runs back, Zhou Shixiang will still be important to himself, if not for anything else, but for this loyalty.

Lu Guangzu has nothing to say, in his opinion, what is an elite soldier? Only a few of the 100 soldiers died, and those few were elite soldiers. The Fifth Town is not an elite soldier, at least in his opinion, in addition to the C Brigade trained according to the Qi family's army, the other two brigades are not as good as the soldiers he took to fight Zhang Xianzhong and Sun Kewang back then. And the soldiers he brought back then were called elite soldiers by the Manchurians, why? It's not because those soldiers followed Zuo Shuai to fight in the south and the north with him, or they kept running away with Zuo Shuai and finally survived. The soldiers who can survive the escape are called elite soldiers, but can they still be called elite soldiers who crawl out of the pile of dead people?

When someone else dies, the one who survives, no matter how he survives, is an elite soldier in the eyes of outsiders.

Lu Guangzu's concept of elite soldiers is so simple, so no matter how many people die in front of him, he won't feel distressed, and he doesn't have much of his old background left and right, and his Lu Guangzu's old foundation is now under Suna, the sixth town. His only worry was that the infantry brigade of the Qing army was coming, and the A Brigade was completely dragged by the Qing cavalry.

........

On the surface, it seems that the Qing army has the upper hand, and the array of the Ming army has been torn apart, and the casualties are greater than those of the Qing army, but after the initial chaos, the Ming army began a targeted counterattack, so that the Qing army could not rely on horsepower under the threat of their spears. At such a close distance, and on a horse, where could the Qing army hide, they could only watch themselves being knocked off their horses.

The longer he was trapped in the Ming army's formation, the greater the casualties, Geng Juxian wanted to order the withdrawal several times, but when he saw the subordinates who were following in the rear, he suppressed the idea of retreating several times. Not far away, there were already Qing infantry with torches arriving, so although the casualties were a bit large, Geng Juxian felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. Once the infantry comes up, the Ming army that is still in chaos will definitely be difficult to resist, and this battle will be won, and he Geng Juxian is the person who made this first achievement, not to mention a future, half of the future will definitely be able to get it.

Geng Juxian was thinking about the future that was about to arrive, and Cao Rong, who was gritting his teeth and fighting with the Ming army, was also thinking about half of his future. The repeated slashing and slashing made his arm a little sore, but when he thought of the half of the future that he could get his hands on soon, Cao Rong regained his spirits.

The arrows of the Qing army "swished" in the ranks of the Ming army, and there were soldiers who continued to scream and fall, because they were all holding spears and swords, and when the soldiers fell down, the soldiers around them must be careful to avoid the bodies and weapons of their companions, otherwise they will be easily injured by mistake. As a result, the already untidy queue became even more scattered. Fortunately, the Qing army that broke through was only three or four hundred people, and Li Guoan's three battalions had more than 2,000 people, so although the situation was chaotic, it was impossible for the Qing army to collapse the Ming army.

Under the combined efforts of the two battalions of the Taiping Army, the Qing army that broke through was gradually compressed, and there were spears everywhere. The Qing army rushed left and right, and it was impossible to tear the crack of the Ming army bigger for a while, but it was also difficult for the Ming army to completely eliminate these Qing cavalry.

Li Guoan noticed that the Qing troops who shot arrows were more dangerous than the Qing troops who rushed over, so he rushed forward with the brigade guards and the three battalions. Seeing that the Ming army was divided into several groups, and one of them was rushing towards them, the Qing army who was shooting arrows immediately turned over on their horses, roared and urged the horses, drew their long swords and big swords, and rushed straight towards the Ming army. Although the soldiers of the third battalion were in chaos, they could see the brigade and the academy moving forward with them, and although their hearts had begun to panic, they still gritted their teeth and followed the square team to stride forward.

Li Guoan had already been hit by two arrows in his body, but he was wearing iron armor, and these two arrows could not cause him any damage. The Qing army also saw Li Guoan's figure and knew that he was the commander of this Ming army, so several Qing soldiers aimed their bows and arrows at Li Guoan. But their big arrows couldn't cause any damage to the iron armor on Li Guoan's body, at most it was just a dent, and those arrows shot towards the front door, as long as Li Guoan raised his arm to cover it, there was no problem. Besides, dozens of brigade guards were guarding him in front of him, and the probability of Li Guoan being shot was also very small.

The hundreds of arrows on the horse Qing army were eager to break through the Ming army in front of them, and the Ming army in front of them was bent on intercepting them under the leadership of their main general, and neither side refused to retreat, so they rushed straight up. Seeing the hooves of the Qing cavalry running, Li Guoan wanted to rush out with a spear in his hand, but he kept suppressing his emotions and reminding himself to maintain the formation, only the organized infantry could resist the impact of the cavalry, so he resisted the impulse and pressed the speed with the officers around him, so that the soldiers who followed could maintain the formation.

Li Guoan loudly reminded his subordinates to follow the rhythm of suona and not to mess up as he walked. The soldiers who are responsible for the speed and rhythm of the team's progress insist on their tasks, and the suona sounded rhythmically one after another. When a suona soldier was shot, a second suona soldier soon followed up to blow the suona in his hand. The soldiers moved forward according to the sound of suona, many spearmen and sword soldiers and shield soldiers were standing in the same row, looking at the past from a distance, the weapons of the third battalion were uneven, but the deterrent effect brought by the neat formation still made the Qing army feel a little numb.

When the Qing cavalry was fighting with the Ming army, more and more Qing infantry arrived. The first to arrive were Tong Zhengliang, the commander of the Han army, and Xu Tianyou, the general soldier of Guilin, with more than 4,000 people. After discovering that Geng Juxian's horse team had stirred up the Ming army, Tong Zhengliang and Xu Tianyou both frowned and smiled, they couldn't deal with the Qi family army with the long monster weapon, couldn't they still deal with the thousands of ordinary Ming troops on the opposite side?

After the Qing infantry came up, Zhao Ziqiang immediately ordered Hu Mingyi, who had already adjusted the queue, to lead the B Brigade to meet the attack. After thousands of Qing army infantry soldiers joined the battlefield, the fifth town was immediately tight, if it were not for Lu Guangzu personally leading the town guard cavalry team to take Tong Zhengliang's troops by surprise from the flank, he was afraid that the defense line of the B Brigade would be penetrated.

The arrival of the infantry team greatly boosted the morale of the remaining Qing cavalry, but the red-eyed armored brigade dragged them to the death and did not let them withdraw. The commander-in-chief of the Qing army, the general soldier of the left wing, also arrived with the battalion soldiers of the headquarters and the general soldier of the surrendered army, Lu Sanxiang and others. At this moment, the sky is extremely dark, and it can be said that you can't see your fingers. On the battlefield in the distance, but seeing the firelight flickering, it was impossible to see what the situation was, whether the Ming army had the upper hand or the Qing army.

In the dark night, I don't know if there are still soldiers and horses lurking in the Ming army, so Quan Jie didn't dare to easily order the whole army to attack, and passed down the order to let the artillery team behind quickly pull up. Lu Sanxiang, the chief soldier of the surrendered army, cared about the battle situation, but he couldn't see it clearly, so he relied on his good equestrian skills, and the whole person stood on two war horses side by side, like a juggler. The leather pocket and pointed helmet on his head had been removed, revealing his bald head, a piece of hair the size of a slap on the back of his head, and a slender pigtail hanging there.

"Lu Zhen rest assured, the Ming army won't last long, and when the artillery team comes up, they will definitely be annihilated."

"Always be careful, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. During the day, the Ming army has succeeded a few times, and now that we have taken care of it, we have to watch out for them, and wait for the artillery team to come, and be safer. ”

The whole section is full of confidence in the development of the war, which means that the Ming army has other reinforcements, but they also did not move, so they are not worried about any changes in the war at all. The only thing to worry about is that in the dark night, if the Ming army retreats, it will inevitably let them run away. He thought that the Ming army that had defeated Xu Tianyou and them during the day was also among them, so he was in a good mood.

Lu Sanxiang smiled, sat down from the horse, and then said with a flattering look: "With the whole town personally commanding, Taiping Kou will definitely not be able to stop it, not to mention the Ming army during the day, even if the thief Xiucai personally brought people here, it was also a fiasco." ”

Quan Jie smiled, knowing that Lu Sanxiang was talking nonsense, and was about to order the artillery team behind him to move faster, but there was a shocking shout of killing on Yumeng Mountain not far from the left rear.

Where did the Ming army come from?

Quan Jie and Lu Sanxiang turned around together, but they gasped in surprise at this look, and in their sight, they saw that on Yumeng Mountain, where there was no ambush, countless torches poured from the mountain forest to the foot of the mountain.

"Not good!"

The whole section shouted, "Artillery team! (To be continued.) )
