Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 80 Wang Shiheng, famous in Huaxia
At the moment of Yinshi, when people were sleeping soundly, in the west camp of the Qing army, except for a few patrols walking around in the camp, the whole camp was decorated with torches, and it looked very quiet in the dark night.

A small group of Qing soldiers visited the camp where Jin Sheng's army was located. In the camp, dozens of Ming soldiers were wearing armor and wielding swords, and they did not fall asleep at all.

Dai Zhifan hid at the entrance of the tent, with a saber in his hand, he gently opened a gap in the curtain, watching the approaching Qing soldiers.

Suddenly he waved his hand, and dozens of Ming soldiers behind him walked out of the camp lightly, and suddenly killed an unsuspecting Qing army patrol team. Their movements were sharp and clean, Not the slightest sloppiness.

Slowly, at the corner of the Qing camp dotted with torches, thousands of Ming soldiers quietly left the camp. They didn't speak, but watched the gestures of the generals and school, and soon divided into several groups. Jiang Tian touched the Qing soldiers. Jin Sheng led people to sneak towards the Qing army's war horses, while Dai Zhifan led a hundred people and quietly came to Zhunta's tent.

Two Qing soldiers stood on both sides of the tent door, one on the left and one on the right, breathing listlessly, cursing in their hearts that it was not yet dawn, and the whistle-changers hadn't arrived yet.

At this moment, Dai Zhifan squatted in a secret place and waved his hand, and two archers from the Ming army came to him. Yu Mingjun swarmed into Zhunta's big tent with his sword.

"Look!" Wang Yan was admonishing the three thousand Ming troops in Li Taizhen's camp. Suddenly, a small school responsible for observing the Qing camp pointed at the Qing army's west camp and shouted excitedly: "General! The Qing camp is on fire!"

Hearing the sound, Wang Yan hurried to the side of the village, looked at the clearing camp in the distance, and saw bursts of flames rising everywhere, and then there was the sound of killing all over the sky, Wang Yan immediately said happily: "Mr. Xizheng has succeeded!"

Seeing this, all the generals of the Ming army were also full of excitement, with blood surging in their hearts.

"Where is Li Taizhen?" For a moment, Wang Yan pressed the handle of the knife with high spirits.

"The final general is here!" Li Taizhen quickly stepped forward and saluted.

"The life and death of Yangzhou's soldiers and civilians will be fought here!" Wang Yanhao ordered in a dry voice: "This general ordered you to lead the army straight to the Qing camp, and Mr. Xizheng's soldiers should join forces from the inside and the outside. If you don't break the Qing camp, come forward." See!"

"Here!" Li Taizhen replied solemnly: "The final general obeys orders! He is bound to break through the Qing camp and avenge his revenge!"

"Break through the Qing camp, revenge!" Three thousand soldiers of the Ming army echoed in unison, exasperated.

At that moment, Li Taizhen led the soldiers and horses, rushed out of the gate of the camp, with swords and long spears, flashing cold light, and went to clear the camp in the distance, while Wang Yan immediately returned to the city, ready to lead the army out of the city.

Sure enough, as Wang Yan expected, the sudden flames rising from the west camp of the Qing army and the shouts of killing all over the sky alarmed the Qing troops in the other three battalions.Zhunta is in Xiying, Li Sutai is also in Xiying, and thousands of real Manchurians are in Xiying. If there is a mistake in Xiying, these green camps will definitely be punished by the Qing court.

Not long after, Li Benshen, Bai Yongfu, Yang Chengzu and other generals of the green battalion raised soldiers from the battalion one after another, and wanted to go to the west camp to support them.

In the dark night, under the lighting of torches, the green battalion soldiers ran quickly, and the team was very chaotic. But in the middle of their march, there was a sudden sound of cannon, and there was a loud noise of killing, and a Ming army came out of the night. Instantly killed the green battalion in two.

In the dark night, I don't know how many Ming soldiers came to the green camp, and there was a sudden chaos.

The green battalion, which came out three ways to rescue, was ambushed by the Ming army almost at the same time. Bai Yongfu was startled, and was about to control the army to counterattack, but suddenly saw a small Ming army, wielding two swords, and killed him.

"Bai Yongfu! Hu Weizong from Yangzhou is here for the generation who has forgotten their ancestors! Don't get off the horse and die!" The junior officer was Hu Weizong.

Seeing his unstoppable bravery, Bai Yongfu was terrified in his heart, so he ran away with his horse.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of cannons on Yangzhou City, and then the city gate opened wide, and countless Yangzhou defenders rushed out of the city gate and rushed straight to clear the camp outside the city.

The shouts of killing filled the sky, rushing to the sky, the three battalions of the east, south, and north of the Qing army appeared weak because of the generals who led the soldiers to help, and the Qing army was beaten dizzy by Wang Yan's series of movements, the three battalions were defeated one after another. The Yangzhou defenders broke through.

In the west camp of the Qing army, Zhunta was beheaded by Dai Zhifan in his sleep, but Li Sutai woke up in time because he drank little alcohol, but the situation was over, Jin Sheng's soldiers set fire to kill everywhere in the camp, and the Qing army could not catch up in time When Jiahe took up his weapon, he was killed and fled in all directions.

Not long after, Li Taizhen led [-] Ming troops into the Qingzhai again, killing the Qing army wantonly, causing even the Qing soldiers who had gathered together to resist to be killed and scattered, and fled the camp one after another.

Seeing this, Li Shuitai couldn't help but his liver and gallbladder were torn. He led nearly a hundred defeated soldiers to lead the horses, but the Ming army was already waiting, and it was a scuffle right now.

There were nearly a hundred Qing soldiers, more than half of them were killed or injured, but they only took three horses. Li Sutai couldn't control the Qing soldiers trapped in the camp, so he fled with two Niu Lu.

Li Shuitai urged his horse to go to the southern camp, and happened to bump into Li Benshen who looked flustered on the way. Li Shuitai asked quickly, "Admiral Li didn't guard the southern camp, how could he be here?"

Li Benshen said in a panic: "I saw the fire in the west camp, so I led the soldiers to rescue it. I didn't want to be ambushed halfway and escape here!"

Li Shuitai was terrified when he heard the words, and said anxiously: "We all fell into Wang Yan's plan! Li Admiral Li will return to the South Camp as soon as possible!"

At that moment, the two joined forces and were about to rush back to the south camp, but suddenly they saw a torch suddenly raised in front of them, and an army was killed from the front. The leading general shouted loudly: "Wang Wei of the Zhongyi Battalion is here! Li Ben will take a break!"

It was Wang Wei who ambushed Li Benshen and came after him.

As soon as Li Shuitai came out of the tiger's mouth, he met the Ming army again.

The two rushed away, and not long after, they suddenly saw an army stationed on a small slope in the middle of the night. Li Shitai was frightened, fearing that it was the Ming army again.

At this time, Li Benshen went up to ask about it, and found out that it was Yang Chengzu from Dongying, who was also ambushed by the Ming army, and led the defeated soldiers there. He watched the fire everywhere at night and dared not move lightly, so he observed the situation here.

Yang Chengzu gathered more than a thousand defeated soldiers, and Li Litai was guarded by this soldier and horse. He felt at ease, and followed the crowd to detour to the East Camp. , even though he is dead, he cannot make up for his faults!"

Along the way, Li Benshen and Yang Chengzu had already learned about the fall of Xiying from Li Shitai, and now they listened to Li Shitai's words, and quickly echoed: "Zhunta didn't listen to the general's words, and Zhongjin sounded a plan to feign surrender, which led to encircling Yang Failure, death is not a pity!"

The four Qing camps were destroyed, and the [-] Qing army was defeated. Someone had to bear such responsibility. Li led Tai heard the words of the two people's agreement, nodded tacitly, and urged his horse to continue to bypass Dongying and head north.

The three led the defeated army to flee to the north. On the way, they saw that the northern battalion had also been breached. Li Suitai couldn't help saying in a deep voice, "After this battle, Wang Shiheng's name will move China and become a confidant of the Qing Dynasty!"

While Li Shuitai was sighing, he suddenly felt the ground shake and his face changed. It was Wang Yan who led hundreds of cavalry to chase and kill the defeated army after breaking through the northern camp.

At that moment, Li led his horses and fled until he fled to Tianchang, a hundred miles away, before he took a rest and gathered the defeated army. Of the 8 horses, only [-] were left, and they could no longer threaten Yangzhou.

It's just that "Weiyang was defeated and looked forward to the wind, Zhunta died and fled to Thailand, the four battalions were all broken and the soldiers were scattered, and Shiheng's reputation was higher than the sky."
