Chapter 1434 Collapse at the first touch

 It took a full month and a half before Shang Kexi led the army to the border of Yunnan Province.

If it weren't for the constant urging of Li Qifeng, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, he could have delayed it for another month.

However, there is no longer any delay at this time.

"The province of Yunnan is ahead, so all troops should be alert and take precautions!"

Shang Kexi ordered.

As soon as Shang Ke's order was conveyed, he heard the sound of a horn in front of him, and then the sound of neat footsteps came from the distance.

Shang Kexi rushed up to a small slope and looked into the distance.

I saw a large army coming from a distance. In front of it was a concentric sun and moon flag with a red background. Behind it were all soldiers in blue. Everyone wore shiny leather boots and carried a short sword at their waist. Behind everyone was a car.

The carriage is covered with tarpaulin, and I don’t know what it contains.

"What kind of military uniform is this? It's so beautiful." Shang Zhixin said.

"What's the use of just looking good in a military uniform? It's just a showpiece." Shang Kexi snorted coldly.

He looked and saw that the army in front of him was only equipped with daggers, no spears, no bows, and no armor at all.

In his opinion, as long as one's own side has a hail of arrows and another round of charge, the opponent can be defeated.

"If I had known that the Ming army was so virtuous, I wouldn't have been so careful on the road."

Shang Kexi is a little annoyed that he was too careful before.

"Give me the order, form your formation and fight the Ming army for a decisive battle!"

Shang Ke shouted happily.

Following Shang Kexi's order, his soldiers formed a formation and prepared for a decisive battle with the Ming army.

Seeing the Shang Kexi army on the opposite side split into formation, Mu Jiansheng, the chief general of the Ming army, sneered.

"Dare to fight a decisive battle with our army? Then let me show you the power of the flying thunder cannons. Arrange them in formation!"

Following Mu Jiansheng's order, the second, third, and fourth grenadier regiments under his command began to form.

The Independent Cavalry Corps quietly bypassed the flank, waiting for an opportunity to launch an attack.

The army is ready and slowly advances.

Shang Kexi was puzzled as he watched the Ming army unload the dark cylinders one by one from the cart, fix them on the cart frame, and slowly move towards him.

After decades of fighting, he has never seen such a formation.

To be on the safe side, he asked the army to wait where they were to see what the Ming army was going to do.

At the same time, he asked the archers to be ready. As soon as they entered the shooting range, they would fire thousands of arrows and shoot the Ming army into a sieve.

As a result, the Ming army stopped three hundred meters away from him, and the gunner holding the torch lit the torch directly.

Immediately afterwards, there was a deafening roar.

Boom, boom, boom!

Thunder cannons roared one after another, and thousands of explosive packets flew into the queue of Shang Kexi's army.

Afterwards, broken limbs and broken arms were flying all over the sky.

The first half of the military formation was directly destroyed, and almost no intact corpses could be seen within the scope of the explosion.

Outside the explosion range, many soldiers were injured due to the splashing of corpses.

"Advance ten meters!"

Mu Jiansheng shouted.

The flag bearer beside him kept waving the flag and conveyed the order.

The Grenadier Corps moved forward ten meters and reloaded the explosive charges.

"Fire!"

Boom!

There was another series of explosions, and the Qing army, which had not yet recovered from the explosion, was blown up again.

"Push forward!"

The Grenadier Regiment continues to advance.

Being bombed twice in succession caused Shang Kexi to directly lose one-third of his troops.

The rest of the people were even more frightened

Be brave.

They scrambled and turned around and ran away.

"Run! The Ming army has magic tricks."

"The Dragon King appears!"

"Monsters, there are monsters!"

The gratifying army retreated like a tide.

Even the supervising team could not make any difference. They were swept away by the army and rushed backward.

"How could this happen?"

Seeing his troops retreat, Shang Kexi was stunned.

He never expected that his army, which had been fighting in the north and south for more than ten years, would be defeated by the Ming army in a single encounter.

Moreover, the collapse was so complete.

The most important thing is that until now, he still doesn’t know how he lost.

What are those dark cylinders?

Is it really a fairy magic weapon?

"Commander, leave quickly."

Shang Ke was happily escorted by his own soldiers and escaped from the hill, retreating towards the back.

"To retreat so quickly? It really didn't take a fight."

Mu Jiansheng sneered.

"Send the order, the army continues to advance, and according to His Highness's will, we will conquer Guangdong and Guangxi!"

Dududu——

The melodious horn sounded, and the army changed its array and continued to move forward.

The cavalry regiments were scattered around, monitoring the surrounding movements.

Li Qifeng, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, was marching behind with his army.

He has already received the news about Tan Ma, and Shang Kexi has already encountered the Ming army.

"I don't know how much strength Shang Kexi still has now. If I can use the hands of the Ming army to use it up, that would be great. It can eliminate a serious problem for the imperial court."

Li Qifeng thought secretly.

Just when he was thinking about what the war would be like.

Suddenly I heard shouts from the front, and then I saw a large number of broken soldiers running from a distance.

At this time, the second wave of exploration horses came back.

"Governor, King Pingnan has been defeated!"

"How is that possible?" Li Qifeng looked in disbelief.

"Is Shang Kexi a pig? How could an army of hundreds of thousands be defeated so quickly? Even if they were all pigs, the Ming army would not be able to break through the defense line so quickly."

"Governor, King Pingnan has indeed been defeated. The defeat is coming soon. Please make a decision as soon as possible, Governor."

"Hiss——" Li Qifeng took a breath of air.

He knows that he is now in a life or death situation.

If this matter is not handled well, your head may have to be moved.

He now has two options. One is to retreat with the army, retreat dozens of miles, enter the city, rectify the army and horses, gather the remaining troops, and plan for the future.

But if Oboi knew about this and he retreated dozens of miles without fighting a single battle, he might be charged with fear of war and death, and the flower feathers on his head would have to be removed, or even

He himself had to be taken to the capital to face charges.

After thinking about the consequences of retreat, Li Qifeng gritted his teeth and said: "Spread out the army, stop the defeated troops, and let them fight back. If not, don't blame me for being ruthless. All archers are prepared. The defeated troops dare to rush within 100 steps of our formation."

, shoot directly!"

"Yes!"

Following Li Qifeng's order, the Green Camp Qing army deployed its formation.

"Your Majesty the Governor orders, if you are afraid of war and death, and pretend to be men of the Qing Dynasty, you should immediately kill your generals and return them to atone for your crimes. Otherwise, the military law is ruthless and you will not be spared."

The messenger shouted to the defeated soldiers.

But the defeated soldiers were so frightened that they dared to go back and still ran forward risking their lives.

Looking at the retreating troops getting closer and closer, Li Qifeng gritted his teeth and said, "Fire the arrow!"

Whoosh whoosh——

Arrows are falling like rain.
