Yue Tuo waved his hand, and the Jiannu army immediately stopped about 400 steps in front of the Ming army's formation.

He carefully looked at the Ming army's formation and found that the Ming army's formation under Shunyi City was the least domineering formation they had encountered since entering the customs.

I encountered several army square formations in front of me. The soldiers stood straight and the entire formation was neat and tidy. At first glance, there was a sense of oppression.

Although the square formation in front of you looks similar to other Ming army formations from a distance, if you look closely, you will find that they are very different.

Their formation was not neat. The front row looked okay, but the back row stood crookedly. It was obvious that they had not undergone rigorous training.

Yue Tuo, who had experienced many battles, could certainly see that the morale of the Ming army was low. When Niu Lu Zhangjing asked for instructions whether to attack, Yue Tuo said coldly:

"Of course we have to fight. The Ming army in front of us should be the weakest Ming army we have encountered since entering the pass. Saha Lian, you personally lead three Niulu to conduct a test attack. I will adapt accordingly!"

"Here!"

Zhen Saha Lian, who held the red flag in Gushan'e, took the order and immediately led three Niulu and nine hundred men to charge against the Ming army under Shunyi City:

"Warriors of the Qing Dynasty, follow Ben Beizi to kill the enemy..."

Da da da……"

Saharian gave an order, and nearly a thousand cavalry with red flags launched a charge.

They were all wearing red armor, and even their horses were covered in cotton armor. Their momentum was quite shocking when they charged together with strange screams.

The soldiers under Li Chongzhen and Tang Tong were basically defeated by Jiannu. They used to be as fearful of the enemy as Jiannu, and would never dare to fight against Jiannu under normal circumstances.

It was only today that they heard that the National Protectorate Army had defeated the Jian Nu Army, so they dared to muster the courage to go out of the city to fight.

Seeing the Jiannu cavalry charging, almost everyone's calves began to tremble, and the hands holding the flintlocks and shield spears also began to tremble slightly.

Tang Tong and Li Chongzhen originally thought that Jiannu had no fighting spirit, but now they saw that was not the case at all. Jiannu was still very energetic when he launched the charge, and both of them began to feel nervous.

But they must not let their subordinates and Jiannu see it, otherwise the army will be defeated if their morale is in chaos. Li Chongzhen immediately drew his sword and shouted sternly:

"Soldiers, prepare for battle. Anyone who dares to disturb the morale of our army will be killed without mercy..."

When the first row of musketeers raised their flintlocks, the Jiannu cavalry were already about 200 steps away from the phalanx. Their horses began to speed up at a trot, and the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground shocked the already trembling hearts of the Ming army.

Two hundred steps away, Li Chongzhen immediately shouted loudly:

"The first row of gunmen is ready..."

"Bang bang bang..."

As soon as Li Chongzhen said he was ready, the Ming army gunners under his command, unable to resist the pressure of the Jiannu cavalry charge, pulled the triggers of their flintlock rifles one after another.

Some soldiers who were more daring and wanted to wait for the Jiannu to enter the shooting range before firing. When they saw their companions firing, they couldn't help but pull the triggers of their flintlock rifles:

"Bang bang bang..."

Jiannu saw the Ming army firing again at about 200 paces. Although they were disdainful, for the sake of safety, they immediately got on their horses and charged.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

The lead bullets whizzed past their heads immediately, and many of them hit the war horses and Jiannu. The Jiannu armor made a loud banging sound before falling to the ground...

Although the effective range of the flintlock gun is less than 200 steps, it does not mean that it cannot hit as far as 200 steps, it just cannot break armor and harm people and horses.

"Nima..."

When Li Chongzhen saw that his gunmen fired their guns prematurely again, his face turned livid with anger. It was obvious that he had lost this battle again.

Because at this time Jiannu Xianghongqi had already rushed to about a hundred steps, it was too late for the fire gun soldiers to reload their ammunition, so they could only wave to Tang Tong and shout:

"Tang Junmen, quickly order the spearmen to step forward and block for a while..."

Tang Tong's lungs were about to explode with anger. The fire rifle soldiers had no effect at all, but it was his idea to go out to fight in the city. It was not possible if he didn't do it at this time. He immediately waved his sword and ordered the spear soldiers to come forward.

"Pikemen step forward, those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"

The pikemen had wanted to run away for a long time, but they didn't dare to because of military regulations. Suddenly they heard that they were asked to step forward to resist the attack of the Jiannu cavalry. They almost greeted all eighteen generations of the ancestors of the gunmen...

But Tang Tong had already issued an order, so they could only hold on to their spears and step forward, with the tips of a row of spears pointed at the rushing Jiannu cavalry.

After all, the musketeers had been trained for two months. Although they were panicked, they did not collapse after firing the cannons. They quickly retreated behind the pikemen to reload ammunition...

Even though the Eight Banners could only be killed instantly against a few armies of the National Guard Army, against two armies like Tang Tong and Li Chongzhen, the Eight Banners' invincible power in the field immediately became apparent.

Rushing about fifty steps in front of the Ming army's formation, Jiannu immediately threw heavy arrows at the Ming army:

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Although Li Chongzhen and Tang Tong were prepared for Jiannu's cavalry and shooting, rows of shields immediately blocked the spearmen.

However, Jiannu's heavy arrows still passed through the gaps in the shields and bombarded the bodies of some Ming soldiers, and some arrows fell from the air and hit the Ming soldiers:

"Puff puff……"

Suddenly there were screams from the Ming army. Many people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Some people were hit by arrows in their shoulders, some had their throats blocked by an arrow, and some had their helmets pierced by heavy arrows...

Most of the shields were blocked in front of the pikemen. Unfortunately, they turned into firecrackers who had just retreated. The continuous rain of arrows thrown by Jiannu caused more than 200 casualties.

However, the fire gun soldiers who had been trained for more than two months were angered by Jian Nu. More than five hundred fire gun soldiers who had not been hit by arrows suddenly stepped forward and pulled the trigger at Jian Nu through the gap in the shield without an order.

"Bang bang bang..."

Jiannu thought that the Ming army's artillery soldiers had been dispersed, and without any scruples, Xianghongqi was preparing to fire another volley with his bow and arrows.

Unexpectedly, a violent sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded from behind the shield of the Ming army, and a barrage of barrages suddenly spurted out from behind the shield:

"Puff puff……"

Jiannu, who had rushed more than 30 steps, was knocked upside down. A burst of blood mist filled the charging formation, causing more than 200 casualties in an instant...

It has to be said that Jiannu was really fierce. They did not panic at all when there were so many casualties. They continued to urge their horses to charge quickly, and at the same time they threw hatchets and short spears:

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

"Bang bang bang..."

Many short axes and short spears instantly broke the shields in front of the Ming army's formation, causing more than a hundred Ming army casualties. There was a chaos in front of the Ming army's formation...

Tang Tong and Li Chongzhen hurriedly shouted loudly:

"Quickly, the pikemen take two steps forward to defend against the cavalry attack..."

"Bang bang..."

Hundreds of Jiannu cavalry crashed into the panicked spear formation without any scruples. The Ming army suddenly fell on their backs in front of the formation, and many spears were broken by the Jiannu heavy-armored horses...

Jiannu who fell off his horse quickly grabbed heavy weapons and smashed them against the Ming army around him. Some Jiannu who were highly skilled in riding jumped off their horses in advance to avoid being injured when their horses hit the spear array.

These barbarians wielded maces and axes in their hands and killed the Ming army without the ability to fight back. They quickly fled in all directions, while Li Chongzhen and Tang Tong retreated towards the city gate under the desperate protection of their servants...

But whether they can retreat into the city is a question. Once the city gate is opened and Jian Nu takes the opportunity to rush into Shunyi, it will be over. Tens of thousands of people in the city will definitely be massacred by Jian Nu.

After all, Li Chongzhen and Tang Tong were also the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. If they were not allowed to enter the city, they would definitely be killed by the slaves. This would be a great insult to both the Ming Dynasty and Emperor Shenwu.

Just when Li Chongzhen and Tang Tong were at a loss, Prince Jiannucheng Yue Tuo saw that the opportunity had come. He immediately pulled out his sword and waved it in the air and issued an order:

"Warriors, break through Shunyi to grab food..."

"Kill, destroy Shunyi..."

Yue Tuo gave an order and led five thousand taels of red flags and hundreds of taels of yellow flags to attack the Ming army in Shunyi City.

Tang Tong and Li Chongzhen had a total of more than 6,000 people under their command, and they had just lost more than 1,000 people. At this time, they only had more than 2,000 soldiers capable of fighting.

They couldn't even stop Sahan Lian and his group of more than 500 people. How could they defeat the 5,000 taels of red flags led by Yue Tuo? Once Yue Tuo killed them, they could be overwhelmed instantly.

Many soldiers of the Ming army were so frightened that they fled in all directions. Only a thousand servants desperately protected them as they retreated towards the gate of Shunyi City.

Seeing all Jian Nu rushing up, Li Chongzhen hurriedly shouted:

"You can't enter the city, flee towards Changping..."

"Yes, flee to Changping quickly..."

As the commander-in-chief, Tang Tong certainly knew what Li Chongzhen meant. If Jiannu was allowed to take the opportunity to rush into Shunyi, Emperor Shenwu would definitely destroy all three of their clans in a rage.

Emperor Shenwu told them to just stick to Shunyi and not go out of the city to fight Jiannu without a chance. In order to kill a few Tatars, they went out of the city to fight with Jiannu in the field.

Fortunately, Jian Nu's charge brought them back in defeat. The casualties of his soldiers were at least two thousand. The two of them regretted it now. If they had known this, they would never leave the city...

Saharian pursued the Ming army closely. He thought he could follow the two Ming army commanders and take the opportunity to enter Shunyi. Unexpectedly, the Ming army made another decision that surprised them. They did not enter the city but fled!

"Cunning Ming Gou, kill them all..."

Saharian screamed and pursued him, but Yue Tuo ordered his men to stop the pursuit and cut down the wood in the nearby woods to build ladders in preparation for attacking the city.

The Ming army has strong walls and clear fields. The nearby food and grass must be gathered in Shunyi City. Without food, they will starve to death. Shunyi must be captured...

As expected of experts in escaping, Tang Tong and Li Chongzhen led the remnants of the defeated generals to rush all the way. Saha Lian led the Eight Banners and couldn't catch up with them. They were so angry that they kept yelling at the back:

"A dead Ming dog, a stinking Ming dog, if you dare, don't run away and fight for three hundred rounds!"

There were three hundred rounds of fighting! Tang Tong and his two thousand people were so frightened that they ran away faster than rabbits...

After chasing for half an hour, Saharian could still only see the shadow of the Ming army. If he chased for another half hour, he might not even be able to see the shadow.

Tang Tong and the others were unable to fight, and in terms of escape techniques, the Jian Nu, who were outnumbered and outnumbered, could only fall behind.

But thinking about the two Ming generals in front of him, Saharian was reluctant to give up. The Qing army had suffered so many losses this time. He wanted revenge, even if he died in battle, he had to move back...
