Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1409 Annihilating North Road
To the east of Longde County, at the foot of Liupan Mountain, on the official road leading from Pingliang Mansion to Ningxia, a 2000-man Ming army formed a simple square formation between two hills, blocking the Jin army from going north. path of.

The Ming army, who came here first, dug a deep ditch in front of the front line. The men and horses stood on the north side of the ditch, and the rattan shields formed a shield wall. The spearmen put their spears on the rattan shields. Very simple, but murderous.

On the opposite side of the Ming army, there are nearly [-] gold troops, ten times the number of the Ming army, but the momentum is not as good as the Ming army who is ready to fight.

The strong wind blew, and the yellow dust on the ground was rolled up. The wind and sand filled the sky, and the battlefield was chilled.

The [-] soldiers of the Jin army lined up in the south of the Ming army in a panic and timidly.

Fleeing from the south bank of the Weishui River to the north bank, and then fled westward all the way, was caught up by the Ming army on the way, was killed and defeated again, and by the time the Jin army was defeated, it had already lost its appearance of being an elite.

At this time, the organizational system of the various armies has long been in chaos, and many battalion generals have lost their own battalion flags. The officers of each battalion have already left their helmets and flags on the road for the convenience of escape.

The officers lost their helmet flags and back flags that marked their identities, and the soldiers didn't know who they were with. The Jin army could barely form a formation with the swordsmen in front and the other troops in the rear.

The golden army, which had lost its weapons and armor, was like an army of beggars, shaped like bandits.

Hauge and Meng Qiaofang were surrounded by people in the middle of the team. Immediately, under the flag of a newly made banner, they looked at the Ming army in the distance with complicated eyes. The generals behind them had anxious faces and dry tongues.

At this time, there is nothing to say, if you don't break through the barriers, when the main force of the Ming army arrives, everything will be over.

Hauge, Meng Qiaofang, Sony and others couldn't help pulling out the sabers around their waists. There was no encouragement, just one word, "Kill!"

The desperate Golden Army let out a roar, and began to charge forward like an army of orcs with no rules in the game.

In the process of the Jin army's rout and flight, not only the organizational system ran into chaos, but also most of the soldiers' weapons and armor were lost.

It is difficult for them to form an exquisite formation now, and the Jin army has no time, so they all spread out and charged.

The Jin army didn't care about any rules, like fighting in groups, or running wildly like ten thousand beasts, but although they were chaotic, they were once elite after all, so they generally maintained their positions, and the soldiers with shields rushed to the front.

Standing behind the formation of the Ming army, Qin Feng saw the overwhelming Jin army rushing towards him, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Fire cannons to meet them."

On both sides of the Ming army's line, five or six bronze cannons let out a roar, and a cloud of white smoke rose up. A fog of blood.

Seeing the soldiers of the Golden Army approaching, Qin Feng waved his hand again, and the flags and drums around him waved the flags, and the whistle sounded in the formation. Pull the trigger.

The sound of "bang bang bang" sounded, and clouds of white smoke rose from the Ming army's front line, filling the entire front line in an instant.

The soldiers of the Golden Army who were running were beaten to the ground and rushed to death.The golden army holding the shield, the shield was hit with sparks flying everywhere, and when they got close, the bullets even pierced the shield.

The soldiers of the Jin Army were ruthlessly shot and killed by the platoon of the Ming army, but they still marched bravely with loud shouts and swept towards the Ming army.

The Jin army rushed forward, protecting the key point with a shield in one hand, and throwing the spear in the other hand, facing the dense rain of bullets, they violently attacked the Ming army's position.

The archers and blunderbusses of the Jin army in front began to shoot arrows and blunderbusses, but their counterattacks were far behind the oncoming rain of projectiles. Under the protection of the shield wall, the Ming army was only sporadically shot down. However, the Jin army was thrown to death in pieces.

Hao Ge saw that the soldiers of the Golden Army suffered heavy casualties, and their sick faces became even paler. At this moment, the soldiers of the Golden Army finally rushed to the front.

The soldiers were blocked by the ditch, and they jumped down the ditch one after another, and then climbed up. At this time, the spearmen of the Ming army behind the shield wall immediately thrust their spears through the gap in the shield, and stabbed the soldiers who climbed up into the ditch. go.

The Jin army fled here in a hurry, without preparing any equipment at all. The Ming army also rushed here, setting up defenses in a hurry, and did not have time to arrange too many fortifications.

The two armies fought brutally, and the golden army that climbed up was constantly stabbed down, and the not-deep trench was filled with corpses in a short time.

'Boom!' With a loud noise, the Jin army hit the shield wall of the Ming army, and the desperate soldiers burst out with unimaginable strength.

Armors collided with each other, armor collided, there was a clanging sound, the hatchet split the shield wall, the two armies fought fiercely together, there were shouts of killing and screams, heads fell to the ground, and blood flowed like rivers.

The front line loosened, and the gunners at the back fired a gun together, then inserted the thorns, and joined the battle group with the guns straight.

When Hauge saw the close combat, a little blood finally appeared on his pale face.It is really heartbreaking to fight against [-] Ming troops with [-] elite gold soldiers.

Seeing that the Ming army's line was loose, Meng Qiaofang leaked a little joy, and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, we are about to break through."

Hao pulls the reins tightly, ready to pass at any time, at this moment, the ground behind him starts to shake, dust is flying, Jin Jun immediately felt it, Sony couldn't help shouting: "Your Majesty, it's not good!"

Hauge turned his head to look, his face full of horror, Meng Qiaofang had already seen it, he was shocked, and saw a cavalry army coming from behind, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth, about 2 people.

The horse army's banners were unfurled, with a terrifying momentum, and they rushed to the back of the Jin army with incomparable speed.The leading general with a black horse in his crotch, holding a lance in his hand, galloped ahead of all the troops, and it was Liu Fangliang who killed him.

Hauge was so startled that he shook his horse. Liu Fangliang was haunted, and he caught up so quickly. He felt a burst of despair in his heart.

This time the Jin army was attacked from the front and back, and the Ming army cavalry was far away, and the Jin army behind them was already in chaos.

Meng Qiaofang, Sony and others saw that the situation was not good, and immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, hurry up, no one can leave if it is too late!"

Hauge's face was pale, and he commanded in panic, his lips trembling, "All ministries break through on their own!"

At this time, where there is any breakthrough, the Jin army collapsed instantly, drilling the mountain, detouring the detour, the soldiers threw away their helmets and armor, fled in the wild, and the Jin army was defeated like a mountain.

"Kill!"

The Ming army shouted loudly, their morale was like a rainbow, and they chased the Jin army to hide and kill. The defeated soldiers trampled on each other, and thousands of desperate Jin soldiers had to kneel down and beg for mercy.

……

A few days later, Longde County.

After Liu Fangliang defeated the Jin army on the North Road east of Longde, he did not continue to march. Instead, he marched westward to Longde, guarding the gate leading to Yongliang, and waiting for the Ming army's food and grass to arrive.

Not long after he arrived in Longde, Liu Bingran came outside the city to ask for an interview. After Liu Fangliang asked why, he sent him and the letter to Chang'an.

In Chang'an City, in the Xingyuan of Jianguo, several cabinet scholars who came from Luoyang sat on both sides. Wang Yanduan sat in front of the commander's desk and looked at Sun Kewang's letter and Wang Deren's letter. After a while, he frowned and said to the left and right: "Several The cabinet also took a look, Sun Kewang is giving Gu a shot at the king, threatening the Gu Wang with the soldiers in Xining city..."
