Shouting below to kill the heavens, Li Zhengjing secretly poked his head out, he had a wide field of vision here, and he could clearly see that the thieves were ready to fight on the wall, and behind their archers were layers of swords and shields, densely packed, all holding waist knives and shields in their hands.

Not far behind them, there were layers of old battalion soldiers and thieves with big swords and heavy axes, and they couldn't help but murmur: "It's about to start." ”

looked at the low wall defense line below, and couldn't help but shake his head: "Miserable." ”

After all, even if there is the protection of the earthen wall, there are also a lot of mud bags and earthen baskets behind the wall, but the shells will catapoch and jump, and if they are rolled to the ground, it will be a miserable end.

The new troops were okay, the battalion soldiers were almost on the verge of collapse after being hit by a cannon blow, all relying on the bullets of the superiors. In fact, the generals of the new army did not object to the personnel arrangement of the defense line, but the battalion soldiers were all afraid, and the people who were arranged were all gray, as if they had been driven to the execution ground.

Li Zhengjing nodded secretly, after this bloody battle, the new army can be regarded as drilled, but at the moment their situation is not good, and they will soon be unable to support it.

Especially against the thieves...... The two sides leaned on the low wall of earthen carts and fired at each other, and the new army in Shaanxi was obviously defeated.

Li Zhengjing's mood was a little complicated, he knew that most of the thieves below were the new army of King Cao in the past, and they worked hard to train good soldiers, but they were used by thieves.

At this time, Li Zhengjing was behind the second low wall of No. 15, and behind him was the praise painting of the ministry. Zhenfu, as well as Chen Sheng, Han Kaihui and other commanders, and four rows of soldiers squatted behind the low wall, they squatted quietly, and the black pressure just spread along the wall.

The Jingbian army had already judged that the old camp of thieves would break through from these two lines, so they lurked behind the second low wall of No. 15 and No. 16. Prepare to strike a thunderous blow to the thief at a critical moment. Of course, the 16th side of the defense line was in charge of Zhao Rongsheng, another commander of the second class army.

In addition to 1,200 gunmen, 400 spearmen were also assembled at some intersections, fighting hand-to-hand at critical times.

"Almost."

Li Zhengjing waved his hand, and immediately the first row of Jingbian soldiers who were squatting behind the low wall got up, put their black and heavy fire guns on the low wall, and pointed their black hole guns downward, and they all used flintlock pistols with swords on the muzzles. There was a faint glow of cold light.

They are all well-trained, and they only need one movement to understand what Shangguan means, and they don't need to speak with their mouths at all. After they put the firecrackers on the rack, they were still silent, and in the sunlight, only the red tassels fluttering on their eight-petaled iron-tipped helmets were dazzling.

At the same time, Li Zhengjing took out a box of cigarettes, which turned out to be "Mighty General" brand cigarettes, and said in his mouth: "Smoke a cigarette before the battle." Race over the living immortals. ”

Li Zhengjing scattered a circle of cigarettes and handed it to Han Kaihui. Although he is not a smoker, he took it out of politeness.

Moreover, Han Kaihui found that there was a lot of pressure to go out to fight, and he originally smoked a few cigarettes at all, but now he occasionally smokes a few.

However, when it was handed to Chen Sheng, he just shook his head silently, and Li Zhengjing scolded him: "You kid is one-eyed." Look at Han Xiaozi, he is much more flexible, no wonder he can marry the niece of Lord Fu's family in Jingying. ”

……

Smoke billowed from the gunpowder, firelight flashed in the smoke from time to time, and people were constantly shot and fell down on the low wall. Their fire was completely suppressed by the soldiers of the battalion behind the earththen carts, and in the midst of the shouts, countless hungry people rushed towards the low wall with short ladder planks.

"Move forward!"

Lao Hu waved his hand, and the sword and shield hands and cold weapon hands under his command covered themselves with shields, and trotted behind those hungry people.

The fire behind the earthen cart sounded like fried beans, covering the charge of the hungry soldiers, who, though no longer firing volleys, still kept the defenders on the other side of the low wall from looking up.

White smoke filled the air, and below was a tidal wave of people pouring towards the low walls of several lines of defense, shouting and killing to the sky.

However, after all, the soldiers of the mountain patrol battalion had fought the defenders many times in the fifth of the armor, and knew that they were not so easy to give into, so they deliberately slowed down their pace, although they shouted louder than anyone else.

Sure enough, as soon as many hungry soldiers approached the low wall, there was a series of firearms explosions, and thousands of enemies threw them like rain. The sound of the three-eyed guns and the explosions of the 10,000 enemies were heard, and the low walls in front of several lines of defense were completely covered in thick smoke, interspersed with the hoarse howls of the hungry soldiers.

The explosions were heard one after another, and the black and oppressed 10,000 enemies just threw themselves out from the low wall, one after another, like rain, and the explosion made the charging soldiers and hungry people cry wolf, and many people were blown up to the flesh and blood, and they just rolled on the ground and screamed miserably.

However, the soldiers behind the earththen cart fired fiercely, slowly suppressing the defenders behind the low wall, and slowly some short ladders were set up, and some sword and shield men who broke into the camp climbed up. And more and more short ladders were erected in front of the low wall, and more and more soldiers climbed into the camp.

However, the defenders behind the low wall still resisted stubbornly, but with the input of 3,000 old battalion soldiers, they finally collapsed.

Lao Hu's expression was complicated: "Attacked? ”

Kong San stared intently over there, and slowly a sneer appeared on his face.

"Attacked!"

There was a cheer in front of the low wall, and the intruders in the ditch watched the defenders of No. 15 and No. 16 frantically flee from the first low wall, and they desperately fled along the slope in front of the ladder into the second low wall, and the unstoppable old battalion soldiers, who chased the figures of the rout, were about to rush into the second low wall.

Then there was a neat sound of the ring, and their cheers stopped abruptly.

"Shoot!"

The dense sword flashed with cold light, and they clinged to each other, pulling the trigger at the old camp of thieves who rushed in front of them.

The deafening sound of a volley of firearms, fierce firelight and heavy white smoke burst out, and countless blood arrows erupted. Shooting, the shields in his hands were shattered one by one, and the old battalion soldiers who were caught off guard fell down in unison, and their screams were continuous.

"Shoot!"

Another burst of fire erupted from under the sword. The billowing smoke of gunpowder rose up, there was a lot of crying, and the old battalion soldiers who were in the rear rolled down a large area. With the shooting ability of the Jingbian Army, it was so close, and they didn't expect the Jingbian Army to ambush here, so they fired every time. At least a ninety percent hit rate.

There were three hundred men in each platoon of the two lines, and after their two volleys, at least four or five hundred of the charging veteran battalion men fell, and the corpses and wounded were already rolling all over the slope in front of the cliff, and blood was pouring all over the ground.

"Shoot!"

Fierce flames erupted again from under the sword, and many of the old battalion soldiers' minds were already blank, they stood blankly, and the fire flickered under the thick smoke in front of them, and then the people around them screamed and fell down one by one.

"Shoot!"

Thunderous roar. The cries were earth-shattering, the corpses piled up on the slope in front of the ladder cliff, the smoke of gunpowder mixed with the smell of blood, and there was an indescribable strange smell in the sun.

"Charge!"

The sword jungle of Senhan was erected obliquely, and after the 1,200 soldiers of the Jingbian Army finished firing the guns, they immediately launched a decisive charge, they jumped out of the low wall, and rushed straight down the slope in front of the ladder cliff. Their swords, shining brightly in the sun.

"Kill the thief!"

Dense layers of armor-piercing cone spears were erected. Four hundred spearmen and soldiers also rushed out from the crossings of the two defense lines, their spears were bright, and they came in rows of cold, and their spears stood up in pieces, shocking and dazzling.

……

"It's time."

On the top of the hill, Wu Zhengchun retracted the clairvoyant mirror. He took a deep breath and said, "Let's shoot!" ”

The artillery officer next to him answered: "Yes!" ”

He shouted: "Poison bomb ash bomb, fire!" ”

One by one, the gunners lit the fuses on the mortars, and immediately the sparks "hissed" and burned.

……

"What is this?"

Things took a turn for the worse, and the old battalion soldiers who were still imposing before cried and fled. The soldiers in the ditch were all dumbfounded, what was going on, why was the old battalion suddenly defeated?

Lao Hu also inhaled the cold air and muttered: "The Jingbian Army is powerful. ”

He whispered, "Do you want to go?" ”

Kong San looked around: "Wait a minute." ”

At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling of cannons on the top of the hill, followed by a terrible whistling sound, and then one after another cannonballs fell and exploded, and immediately bursts of strange smoke filled the air, and bursts of white mist fluttered. For a while, the already commotionous army vehicle formation became even more chaotic.

Some battalion leaders even left the earthen carts and ran away, regardless of the fact that the rear had not yet collected their troops, and their escape caused a chain reaction, and more and more army formations broke up.

Kong San said: "You can go." ”

Lao Hu had been waiting for his words, and when he heard this, he immediately shouted, "Let's go." ”

……

Seeing the thieves retreating like a tide, Sun Chuanting, who was fighting on the top of the mountain, breathed a sigh of relief and won!

However, he had some regrets in his heart, although the thieves were defeated, and although the thieves in front of the low wall were busy fleeing, most of the rear were gathered on the side of the fort, and the layers of archers and firearms were not able to defeat them in one fell swoop. However, after giving the thief a thunderous blow this time and showing his strength, he can also retreat with dignity.

After many days of tragic fighting, the battalion soldiers were already on the verge of collapse and could no longer be used, and the strength of the new army alone could not hold the Yuanwanggou, after all, he could not put all the forces of the new army into this side.

……

The battle on 12 May caused great controversy in the camp, and it was obvious that the earth-cart tactics proved to be indeed effective, and the possibility of attacking from the southern end of Yuanwanggou was also very great, but because of the heavy casualties of the old camp in this raid, Li Zicheng and others were distressed.

The 3,000 raids on the old battalion ended up with more than 2,000 casualties, and the losses were unprecedentedly heavy.

Li Zicheng also fell into a dilemma, facts have proved that Gu Junen's strategy of attacking Shaanxi is wrong, but after fighting in Tongguan for so many days, the losses are so heavy, if he retreats, not to mention Li Zicheng, even if everyone in the camp is unwilling.

It's just that......

Li Zicheng hesitated in the dispute, and just when he was troubled, early in the morning of the 13th, suddenly the sentry cavalry rushed to report that the Ming army had retreated.

Sure enough, when Li Zicheng went to look, he found that the defenders of the entire Yuanwanggou defense line had retreated, and it seemed that they had withdrawn overnight last night.

There was a cheer in the camp, Li Zicheng also swept away all the decadence, and his heart swelled with great excitement and confidence, it seems that the Ming army suffered heavier casualties, as long as he persists, it is the final victory or his own.

After greatly publicizing this victory, on the afternoon of the 13th, Li Zicheng crossed the Yuanwanggou and entered the southern plains amid the cheers of the army. (To be continued.) )
