"Hurry up." As a team leader, Li Ming was still busy when his subordinates were resting. "Drink some water and eat something to eat, the North Prisoners may make a comeback at any time." He ordered them one by one, and at the same time asked around the boy scouts who were slightly injured and couldn't get out of the line of fire. "How is it? Can you hold on?" The wounded soldier grinned, so Li Ming patted him on the shoulder. "Good job, I will reward you when you defeat these traitors!" Just as I was speaking, the alarm sounded, and the Qing army slowly came over again, looking at the Qing army, which was even larger than before. Team, Li Minggao is drinking. "The grandchildren are behind us, for the sake of Daming and for the grandchildren, everyone persevere!"

The encouraging sounds of other battalions came and went one after another on the same front, and were soon drowned out by the sound of artillery firing again.

The Qing army did not have artillery support, so they could only endure the artillery fire of the Boy Scouts, but the casualties bowed their heads and rushed.At this time, the Qing army's superiority in numbers was revealed. Even if the densely packed team was punched with several holes, it quickly returned to normal after the surrounding Qing army filled it up.

"Change the shotgun!" With the sound of the order, the shotgun wrapped in tin was put into the barrel of the two-inch gun. The seal is melted by heat at the moment of exiting the chamber, and the eighteen thumb-sized lead particles in the shotgun will quickly spread out, creating a lethal effect of a volley of guns among the enemies.

Sure enough, this kind of terrifying weapon that can empty a fan at once caused the Qing army in groups to suffer a lot, but compared with the chain bullets fired by the three-inch gun, the effect of the shotgun seems not shocking. I saw six iron chains whirling and unfolding in the air, and then shattered all the way, emptying out the entire area.

Most of the Qing army had never seen such a terrible weapon. Many people dropped their weapons and turned to run away, but they were swept away by the second team brought by Zhan Liuqi and Li Quanxin who saw the situation was not good. Back, just like this, the two Qing armies converged, and a team of more than 4000 people resisted the artillery fire of the Boy Scouts, and appeared in front of the firecrackers and melee infantry.

After another three rounds of deer blunderbuss shooting, the blunderbuss team also retreated to the artillery barracks to regroup. At the same time, the Qing army charged at the pikemen in front of them with unprecedented impact. Successfully tore through the gun array with only two rows, and then the bloody hand-to-hand combat began.The Boy Scout spearmen tried to get out of position so that the sword and shield fighters could attack. Many of them managed to escape the entanglement of the Qing army, but a considerable number were still overwhelmed by the large number of Qing troops.

Seeing this situation, the red-eyed sword and shield fighters roared and pushed forward

"Grandson, if you don't join the reserve team, you will die." Mao Hongyan said so. "Let the minister lead the Kunlun mark to fill in!"

The situation had reached the moment when Zheng Kezang could no longer hesitate, so Zheng Kezang nodded and agreed with Mao Hongyan's suggestion, and the last fresh force rushed forward. So far, there were no other people around Zheng Kezang except dozens of guards. By force.

"Report, the Qing army broke into the betel nut forest, and Zhang's guard is leading his troops to resist"

"Reporting to Shisun, 500 Qing troops surrounded them again, and the cavalry barracks officer has already led people to the top."

"Report, Central Admiral Zhongzhen Hong lord urgently reports that Youwuwei Town was attacked by a Qing army on the way, and Hong lord is leading his troops to fight fiercely, but he may not be able to reinforce our team for a while."

Unfavorable news came one after another. The only thing that reassured Zheng Kezang was that Youwuwei had collided face to face with the Qing army that outflanked him. Although the reinforcements could not arrive for a while, at least he would not be fucked. , but if the reinforcements do not come, and the Qing army increases again, he will only be defeated sooner or later, so he looks to the east eagerly: "He Gan, Zhang Xueyao, and Wang Jingong are all counting on you now."

Zheng Kezang was in a state of dismay, and there was also smoke on Hegan's side. He first defeated the enemies of the large platoon, and then went eastward to rescue Zhang Xueyao's troops according to Zheng Kezang's instructions. Zuowuwei Town blocked the onslaught of the Qing army and affected Zheng Jun's counterattack. Fortunately, with the addition of more than 3000 elites, the battle situation has tilted in the direction of Zheng Jun, but this did not satisfy He Gan and Zhang Xueyao. There was a mistake on Zheng Kezang's side, and their hard work was in vain.

"Master Zhang, it's not too late. These rebels will still be handed over to Master Zhang to hunt and kill. I will rush back to rescue the grandchildren now."

"Okay, Master He just go." Zhang Xueyao readily agreed. "I'm going to gather my troops immediately, and I'll go to rescue Mr. Wang later. As for the rest of the Qing army still entrenched on the sandbar?" Zhang Xueyao's face showed a strong murderous intent. "It doesn't need to be too much trouble, just set it on fire"

The raging fire ignited the reeds on the sandbar, and before the Qing army had time to wade out to a safe place, a volley of guns and a rain of bows and arrows shot over. After knocking down dozens of people, they were killed. It was forced back into the fire, so the smell of burnt protein came out

"Fire!" The Boy Scout gunners on the artillery base continued to shoot desperately regardless of the red barrels.Taking advantage of the advantage of being higher than the ground, the artillery soldiers sprinkled lead bullets into the thick rear formation of the Qing army to their heart's content, and knocked down the enemies crowded into a pile as much as possible. Zheng Jun's firepower advantage was offset step by step.

"Kill!" At this time, the slave soldiers who spoke blunt Chinese began a decisive countercharge under the leadership of officials at all levels.

Although the Qing army had already touched the skirt of the Goddess of Victory, they only had supper and breakfast before entering Luermen. After a whole day of tossing, they were already exhausted. The entry and rear formations were blocked by artillery fire, and the Qing army, which had been aggressive just now, was immediately beaten back steadily, and the Boy Scouts' frontline turned from danger to safety.

Hu Kejian, the battalion officer of the Luanyi Guard Cavalry Barracks, reined in his panting horse and looked around. At this time, Wang Zuochang's detour troops of the Qing army had been defeated by him again.

"Blow the horn, let them come back." The whining sound of the brass horn gathered up the scattered cavalry, and when there were almost 150 cavalry around him, Hu Kejian pointed to the flank of the Qing army. "Follow me and kill this way!"

The sudden side attack finally made the Qing army unable to support it anymore. Starting from the far left, the various Qing troops collapsed slowly and firmly like a gravel castle washed by waves.Taking advantage of the chaotic retreat of the Qing army, some boy scouts pursued them, and at least hundreds of Qing troops stayed behind forever.

"Ming Jin withdraws troops." Mao Hongyan, who was about to fight the battle himself, soon discovered the enthusiasm of the young commanders on the front line, and he immediately gave the order. "Maybe there will be a third round, everyone should rest now."

"What? Yang Zongbing was injured, and Zhan Liuqi and Li Quanxin died in battle?" Due to poor vision, Shi Lang didn't know the reason for the destruction, but he guessed that Zheng's army was also at the end of its rope, so when the rout had not yet gathered Next, he ordered loudly. "Come on, put on your armor, I will go to battle in person!"

"Shi Junmen," Lin Xian, who rushed over with the rear team, happened to hear this sentence, and immediately stopped him. "Junmen, you can't," Lin Xian said straight before he had time to greet Shi Lang. "The enemy in front of us is so good at fighting, it must be the elite of the enemy army. The officers and soldiers have repeatedly been blocked by him, and their morale has been greatly weakened. The army can no longer fight recklessly."

"Don't fight anymore?" Shi Lang asked back. "If the sea goes against the sea and reinforcements from all walks of life swarm in, wouldn't it put our army in a desperate situation?"

"When the lower official came here, he saw a big fire erupting in the area of ​​the Salt Water Creek," Shi Lang fixed his gaze, and then he heard Lin Xian say. "With the fire of Hai Ni, obviously I don't want to entangle with the officers and soldiers. In this way, the movement of Hai Ni and the large row of Hai Ni in the area of ​​Yanyan Creek is self-evident." Lin Xian paused. "In case our army has not broken through the enemy in front of us, the two Haini troops will attack from behind." Lin Xian reminded, pointing to the slightly incomplete full moon above his head. "Shi Junmen, it's getting late." Yes, the first battle between the two sides was at the beginning of Shenshi (that is, five o'clock in the afternoon). Bright, but fighting a life-and-death battle under the moonlight is a bit desperate. "Even if we defeat the enemy in front of us, Junmen, our army will not be able to capture Tianxing Prefecture tonight."

"Master Lin, you mean to use one to monitor the enemies in the betel nut forest, and the other departments to turn around and defeat the enemies who come to help?" Shi Lang calmed down and thought about it quietly. The situation where both ends of the wolf are afraid. "Now the movements of He Yi and Chen Mang are unknown. Even with the rear team included, the entire army has no more than [-] soldiers, and there are thousands of wounded among them."

"The humble official thinks that Haini is bluffing, and his military strength is not superior to that of the imperial court. Therefore, the humble official please stay behind with 3000 people to monitor Haini in front of you. Your Excellency can gather [-] soldiers on the right side, and still have a numerical advantage. " Lin Xian paused. "In this way, the officers and soldiers still hope to win a complete victory."

Shi Lang understood, what Lin Xian meant was to give up Tianxing Prefecture as the goal, and instead pick up the tactics of defeating each one that he formulated at the beginning. Maybe he could really break the deadlock in front of him, but after several setbacks, Shi Lang was no longer sure. Zheng Kezang hesitated whether he had any hole cards yet to show. "Soldiers running back and forth, lacking physical strength to fight in the field"

"Then let's not fight in waves." Lin Xian interrupted Shi Lang, perhaps feeling that his tone was a bit presumptuous, so Lin Xian paused before continuing. "Hai Ni is also not made of iron. They also have to rest. It happens to be a decisive battle tomorrow morning." The two were talking, and suddenly there was a burst of earth-shattering cheers from the Zheng army. Jianwei Town and other words, Lin Xian noticed that Shi Lang's face darkened suddenly: "Junmen, Haini's reinforcements are coming up."

"I heard it." Shi Lang frowned, obviously a little unwilling to see the duck flying away, but with Chen Chang killed in battle, Yang Jiarui injured, and Chen Long staying at sea to command the navy, Lin Xian was justified. Now that he has become his deputy, it is impossible for him not to give this de facto deputy a little face. "Then trouble Brother Lin."

"Has the Qing army camped on the spot?" Zheng Kezang, who received the report, cast his eyes on Mao Hongyan beside him. "Does Mao Qing think that this move by the Qing army means that today's battle is over?"

"I thought the Qing army was not good at fighting at night." Mao Hongyan judged like this. "Secondly, reinforcements from our domain came pouring in. If it was a night battle, Shi Lang was afraid of being attacked by the enemy, so he set up camp on the spot to prepare for another day's battle." Mao Hongyan paused. "According to my observation, the Qing army still has a number of five thousand at least. Even if the reinforcements from all walks of life in this domain arrive, it is only five or five. The Qing army still has a chance of winning."

Although they won two consecutive battles and wiped out nearly four or five thousand Qing troops, the casualties of Qianwu in the first town of the Boy Scouts were exhausted. In addition, Hong Gongzhu was in the north. The circumstances of the encirclement and annihilation of the Qing army's detour troops are still unclear. It may have been a long time since He Gan, Zhang Xueyao, and Wang Jinzhong's situation has been heard, so Mao Hongyan advocated being cautious.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Zheng Kezang actually didn't know much about military affairs, but he had an intuition that Shi Lang shouldn't have done so, so he gave up. "Although reinforcements have arrived from Jianwei Town and Jianwei You Town, if Shi Lang ignores the casualties, he is still very likely to defeat our army. A bad night battle is not an excuse. Shi Lang must be playing some terrible idea." Zheng Kezang The memories brought from his previous life made him look up at Shi Lang, but he didn't think that something was wrong and he was right. "Shi Lang must have wanted to use one to cover our army's sight, and the rest of the Qing army was transferred eastward to deal with He Gan and the others." Thinking of this, Zheng Kezang ordered loudly. "Come here, send a fast horse to find He Zhentong immediately, so that he doesn't have to march overnight, and first join the two generals Wang and Zhang." Zheng Kezang thought for a while, and now he should concentrate all the troops that can be concentrated, so Continue to order. "In addition, send someone to bring back the second town of the Boy Scouts. Now that the main force of the Qing army is landed, it is enough to have the sailing battalion and the whale hunting battalion at sea. Their main battlefield is still on land."

The envoy hurriedly set off, Zheng Kezang then turned his head and ordered to Mao Hongyan: "Qing Mao still has to work hard, and immediately start to organize the second town of the Yongwei Army and the remnants of Wuchong Town into the boy scouts in case of emergency."

This is a big deal, so Mao Hongyan agreed and wanted to leave, but Zheng Kezang stopped him: "After the rectification is over, let the team rest quickly. The artillery army will find a way to attack at night, so as not to prevent Shi Lang from turning against the guest."
