With the order flag waved, the artillery battalion of the rear army took the lead in attacking, and the musketeers who were hiding behind the sword and shield hands kept firing in batches.

The entire square formation was shooting one year ago, and the advancement was not fast, but it was absolutely safe and efficient. The Qing soldiers escaped from the broken walls and could indeed escape easily, but it also brought them disadvantages, that is, without the cover of the wall, they were all exposed to the Ming army's shooting range.

There were two groups of people in the Qing army camp. Zhang Dayuan was mostly infantry, and Liu Zhong brought all cavalry. The Qing soldiers raised their bows and arrows and barely shot and fought back, but were all blocked by swords and shields. There were very few Ming soldiers who really killed and injured.

The two groups of people merged and fought in a hurry, and lacked tacit understanding between them. At this time, a general needs to stand up and command and mobilize them. However, neither Zhang Dayuan nor Liu Zhong had the intention to be the one who coordinated the entire army. Everyone thought about preserving their own strength as much as possible and avoiding being cannon fodder for the other party.

Zhang Dayuan pretended to be in power and said, "Liu Zhong, look at the Ming army over there, there should be less than 10,000 people. You have 30,000 troops, so you can capture Hou Xuanyan alive and make unparalleled contributions. The position of a vassal king cannot escape."

Liu Zhong cursed in his heart, but he was polite: "General, I think it's not impossible to capture Hou Xuanyan alive, but we have to wait until Prince Heshuo's army arrives before we have a chance. To block the Ming army's offensive, we can only retreat to the Xijiangkou behind. Only by waiting for reinforcements and annihilate them in one fell swoop."

The deputy general Hu Maozhen next to him couldn't bear to see it anymore, and the Ming army opposite was about to come to the front, and the two live treasures were still arguing.

"If the two generals don't decide, the Ming army will come here." As soon as he finished speaking, a small soldier next to him was pierced by a stone blown from the shells and fell to the ground and wailed.

Liu Zhong looked at the soldier and said with a heart-standard attitude: "Follower General Zhang, I will lead the crowd to raid, and wait for Prince Heshuo's army to attack instead of defending."

Zhang Dayuan sneered in his heart, "I'm not going to be cannon fodder."

Liu Zhong walked into his own formation, and his generals of all sizes immediately leaned forward. Liu Zhong lowered his voice and said, "The person surnamed Zhang wants me to be a scapegoat, help him hold Hou Xuanyan up, and fight back when Jiergalang arrives. At that time, the credit will be all this bastard, but it seems to be our brothers."

Liu Shouying, the gang general under Liu Zhong, cursed: "Zhang Dayuan is so vicious. What kind of kindness do he have to treat us? Why should we give up our lives for the top of his head?"

Liu Zhong smiled treacherously: "Zhang Dayuan thought he was a northerner. He was earlier than me when he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and suppressed me everywhere. This time, I want him to see how I, Liu Zhong, are powerful. We are all cavalry. After the first round of charge, don't fight with the Ming army, and divide them to the left and right wings and take the opportunity to escape back to Xijiangkou. Zhang Dayuan is a group of infantrymen, I see how he resists this group of Ming army."

"General, although this plan is wonderful, I am afraid that those with the surname Zhang will cause trouble for us in the future."

Liu Zhong smiled and said, "You really think that Hou Xuanyan is a cash bag. We give him this big gift, and he can let the Zhang surname go, so why should we run away?"

"Haha, the general is wise and has no choice but to do it. It is true that Zhuge Liang is reborn and Xu Maogong is reincarnated."

Liu Zhong mentioned the reins and cursed: "She is the nonsense of his mother. After sending orders to release the Ming army, she will retreat to both wings so that Zhang Dayuan will have a chance to escape. Do you understand?"

"I understand."

Liu Zhong nodded with satisfaction, turned around and looked determined, and sang: "Run for me!"

Zhang Dayuan in the distance was overjoyed when he saw Liu Zhong leading the army to charge. He said to Hu Maozhen: "Hou Xuanyan is a major concern of the court. Now he walked out of his nest and came out to die, which is a wealth that would make us shine. Liu Zhong resisted in front of him. We are waiting for Prince Heshuo's army here. When the prince captures Hou Xuanyan alive, we will gain some credit, and we will be enough for you and I to win the wife and son. Hahaha."

Hu Maozhen smiled and said, "If we have this fate, it depends entirely on the general's magical plan."

Liu Zhong's cavalry rushed towards Hou Xuanyan's square formation. Hou Xuanyan of the central army frowned and asked, "Is the cavalry rushing to the infantry phalanx? Liu Zhong is tired of living?"

A phalanx of infantry formed into a formation is a nightmare for cavalry. It was abnormal. Hou Xuanyan felt a little uneasy. There would be no trick, right? He never expected that there were indeed tricks in it, but not targeting him, but targeting the teammates behind this group of people. How did they sell the teammates of the Ming Dynasty at the time, and how would they sell the teammates of the Qing Dynasty today. If they were expected to sublimate their character and become united and friendly after the Qing Dynasty, it would be impossible.

"Don't care about him, keep pushing forward, and he will fulfill them if he wants to die."

Jiang Jianxun of the Left Army suddenly felt his heart when he saw the charge of the cavalry and ordered: "Start up the march and beware of the enemy's escape from both wings."

Seeing that there were still hundreds of steps away, Hou Xuanyan discovered the movements of the left army and immediately understood. When the Central Army waved the flag, the Right Army also accelerated forward. The Ming army, which was originally a square formation, instantly turned into a concave geese formation.

As the name suggests, the geese formation is like the bow shape of a geese flying by, which is most conducive to exerting the power of the shooting troops and can greatly enhance the shooting density. The disadvantage is that it is not strong in charge. Liu Zhong hits him head-on and has no time to adjust. He retreats to the left and right wings and is surrounded and becomes a living target. On the Ming army, the sword and shield hands retreat, and the spear soldiers are on their heads, harvesting the lives of the cavalry. The spear pierces the horse's neck, and the galloping horse's blood is boiling and hot, and the blood is spread throughout the battlefield.

Hou Xuanyan smelled the familiar smell and looked at the battlefield where the blood flowed in front of him. He suddenly remembered the prosperity of the flowers and willows in Jiangnan not long ago and the boundless wealth. He murmured: "Only by killing them all, we can have a good life."

Seeing that he suddenly said something like this, Qin He pulled out his steel knife and rushed to the battlefield ahead.

Zhang Dayuan from the rear saw it and cursed: "This idiot has been sick for so many years and dares to attack the enemy formation head-on. How did he survive until today."

Hu Maozhen didn't care, and there were 30,000 people. Even if the Ming army was massacred, it would not be possible to end the battle soon. If Jirgalang's army arrived, they would not care about Liu Zhong's life or death.

"General, the Ming army's formation is in chaos, so why not let the archers shoot in a volley."

When Zhang Dayuan heard this, he asked in surprise: "But Liu Zhong made them get mixed up."

"General, look, the situation ahead is so clear. The Ming army wants to replace Liu Zhong with five. The casualties of our volley shots are the same, which is equivalent to making four."

Zhang Dayuan laughed and said, "You guy is right, so let's help Liu Zhong."

The rain of arrows flew from behind him, losing the cover of the sword and shield soldiers, and the spearmen in front suffered heavy losses. But what was even worse was Liu Zhong's men, and countless rain of arrows shot from their backs.

Liu Shouying pushed a knife and pushed away a feather arrow and cursed: "General, that bastard Zhang Dayuan doesn't treat us as human beings, and his left and right are blocked again. Now we're done."

Liu Zhong's eyes were bloodshot, his hair was upright, he slapped his heart with the back of the knife, and said angrily: "Turn the horse's head and rush out from behind!"

The cavalry under his command had long been full of hatred. When he heard this, he ordered his men to turn their heads and rushed towards his rear army.

Zhang Dayuan did not set up a formation. He was waiting for Jirgalang's army. He did not want to harm others but was killed. Nearly 10,000 cavalry attacked a group of loose infantry, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

Zhang Dayuan scolded: "Stop it, damn it...disperse it for me, disperse it for me, disperse it for me,"

After Liu Zhong led his troops to step over, there was no barrier in front of Zhang Dayuan's formation. He was cursed by the dispersed soldiers and horses, and suffered heavy casualties. After Liu Zhong's cavalry broke away Zhang Dayuan's infantry and left. His subordinates soon discovered that a monster-like battle formation had appeared in front of them.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the ridiculous performance of the enemy, and there was no trace of joy in his heart. It was this group of bad guys who handed over Zhongyuan to him.
