"withdraw!"

After the Qing army confronted the Guanning cavalry for half a stick of incense, Du Du still issued a retreat order.

At this time, Du Du's face was as gloomy as water. This was the first time that the Tatar cavalry had voluntarily retreated when they encountered the Ming army in several years.

In the past, the Ming army basically retreated when they saw the Qing army.

Because if they do not retreat, they will face the pursuit of the Qing soldiers next.

So, Du Du was very unwilling to accept this moment. If it weren't for the fact that there were too many Guanning cavalry on the opposite side, and the Guanning cavalry was not an ordinary Ming army, he really wanted to lead the army and rush over.

Rumble!

Teams of Qing cavalry began to rush slowly, slowly revolving around half a circle, preparing to evacuate here.

On the other side of Zu Daqiu, when he saw that the Qing army had signs of retreating, instead of taking the initiative to attack them, he breathed a sigh of relief.

They didn't want to fight the Qing cavalry as soon as they came, as that would not conform to their code of action.

"It seems that the chief general of the Qing army opposite is also a person who can see the situation clearly."

Looking at the Qing army who was about to evacuate, Zu Dacheng smiled and said to the many Zu family generals behind him, saying that he had no intention of leading the army to attack.

Peng!

Boom!

But at this time, a sudden change occurred.

A loud bang came from a distance, and a huge iron bullet hit the Qing army's cavalry formation, and a large number of Qing army cavalry fell down.

“What’s the situation?”

After seeing this scene, Zu Daqiu, who was still chatting and laughing, thought he had avoided the decisive battle with the Qing army, suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the scene in disbelief.

Bang bang bang!

Immediately, loud noises came one after another, and iron bullets fell from the hill behind the Qing army and into the formation of the Qing cavalry.

Needless to ask, the one who fired the artillery shells was the new army artillery battalion brought by Zhu Yong.

But just now, Zhu Yong led the new army to arrive. To the south of the 6,000 Qing cavalry led by Du Du, he happened to see the confrontation between the Qing army and the Guanning cavalry.

Seeing that the two armies were still, they did not start a battle immediately, which made Zhu Yong's expression cool.

Zhu Yong naturally guessed what the 20,000 Guanning cavalry chief across the street were thinking.

"Hmph, Zu Dashou, Zu Dashou, since you have sent the Guanning cavalry into the inner gate to participate in the war, and you still want to preserve your strength, how can I win?"

Immediately, Zhu Yong quietly asked the new army soldiers to climb the two hills behind Du Du's army and occupy the commanding heights here.

At the same time, the five thousand Dunge soldiers brought were blocked the only passage behind Du Du and blocked Du Du's retreat.

In this way, once the Qing cavalry was attacked, they had only two options to withdraw.

One of them is a narrow mountain road passing through the two hills behind them.

If the Qing army had gone here, it would needless to say that they would inevitably be violently attacked by the New Army musketeers and gunners on the hills on both sides.

The other one is to go north to fight out from the Guanning cavalry.

The Guanning cavalry is a smooth road, suitable for cavalry to rush out. After fighting from here, Qing cavalry can choose from whether it is north, west, or east.

Du Du's hesitation time just gave Zhu Yong time to arrange it.

When Du Du was about to lead the army to retreat from the southern mountain road, Zhu Yong had already transferred his new army to the hills on both sides.

Zheng Nanming's artillery battalion, more than 30 enemy-breaking cannons, have been set up, and 5,000 shield soldiers have blocked the mountain road. Zhu Yong issued a fire order without hesitation.

Therefore, the new army artillery battalion was the first to be difficult. Solid iron bombs rushed out of the cannon chamber with the roar, drew a half arc in the air, and then smashed into the dense formation of Qing cavalry.

At this time, the Qing army did not appear at all. Zhu Yong's new military personnel appeared on the hill behind them.

Dozens of solid iron bullets smashed into the Qing cavalry, and suddenly they turned over and pulled out a flesh-and-blood passage, and many Qing cavalry were smashed into meat paste.

"Damn it, there was a sneak attack by the Ming army, and I will kill you."

After seeing this scene, Du Du's eyes were full of blood and roared angrily, and led a Qing cavalry to the rear first. He soon saw the five thousand shield soldiers on the mountain road.

"kill!"

Without saying a word, Du Du rushed towards the five thousand Tianxiong Army Shield and Ghost soldiers without saying a word, hoping to fight out of them.

Bang bang bang bang!

As a result, when Dudu led more than 2,000 Tartar cavalry and just rushed up the mountain road, they were about to rush to the shield wall formed by five thousand shield soldiers, they immediately suffered a storm.

A musketeer stood on the hills on both sides, spreading in height, and was shooting wildly towards the hills. Du Du led these Qing cavalrymen to shoot.

Each new army musketeer pulled the trigger, flames spewed out of the muzzle, smoke from the fire door rose, and a crisp sound made, and a lead bullet shot towards the Qing cavalry below.

Puff puff puff!

"Ahhh!"

The law!

The dense lead ejected out, and a large number of Qing cavalry fell down, screaming, and the war horses that were shot also made a mournful cry.

The sudden blow scared Du Du. Under this terrain, the Qing cavalry was very afraid of firearms.

"rush!"

At this time, Dudu had no way out, so he gritted his teeth and continued to lead these Tartar cavalry to rush towards the five thousand shield soldiers blocking the mountain road at all costs.

Bang bang bang bang!

During this period, dense gunfire continued, and more than 8,000 New Army musketeers were distributed on the hills on both sides, shooting wildly at the Qing cavalry below.

"Ahhh!"

Tartar cavalry were constantly shot and dropped from horses, and Tartar cavalry were constantly running, fighting horses were shot, and then they fell out with their men and horses.

After paying a certain price of casualties, the Qing army finally rushed to the front of the Five Thousand Dunge Army.

After all, this distance was less than four miles, and the Qing cavalry could rush over quickly if they lifted it up slightly.

"Everyone is ready to hit."

Seeing the Qing cavalry rushing to him, behind a large iron shield, a general of the Tianxiong Army roared loudly.

After hearing the roar of the Tianxiong Army general, the soldiers in the front pressed their shoulders firmly behind the iron shield. The latter group of soldiers stretched out the long spear in their hands through the gap.

Boom!

Puff, puff!

Immediately, a Taurus cavalryman who was famous in the high-ranking Mercedes-Benz crashed into the shield wall because they could no longer avoid it.

"Click!"

"Ahhh!"

The sound of broken bones and tendons coming from the bodies of the Tianxiong soldiers who were pressed behind the iron shield, accompanied by screams.

The Tartar cavalry who ran over high and hit the shield, and their powerful force would cause great damage to the soldiers behind the shield.

At this time, many soldiers of Tianxiong Army were shocked and coughed up blood, but they still held back the iron shield in front of them, preventing the iron shield from falling down, and preventing the Qing cavalry from coming in.

Similarly, many screams came from the Qing cavalry.

The Tartar cavalry rushed to the front and knew that they would die at this moment, but they still hoped to break through the shield wall through their own sacrifice.

Dozens of Tartar cavalry rushed to the front, but at the cost of all sacrifice, they did not break the shield wall composed of the shield soldiers.

On the contrary, these Tartar cavalry who fell and died, their bodies and the bodies of war horses were lined up in front of the shield wall, adding another obstacle to the Tartar cavalry rushing towards behind.

"Get out!"

At the same time, the Tianxiong Army soldiers behind the shield wall kept sticking out their long spears through the gaps in the shield.

Either stab, or pull, use long spear heads, horizontal swords and other positions to kill the Tatar cavalry, or break the horse legs of the Tatar cavalry war horses.

"Tiger squat cannon, Flang machine, shoot!"

And at this time, the new soldiers on the hills on both sides were naturally not idle.

They lifted out light artillery such as tiger squat cannons, Flangers, loaded them with projectiles, placed them on the hills, and bombarded the Tartar cavalry below the side.

Rumble!

The tiger squat cannons and the Flang machine opened fire, and the dense projectiles swept out in a fan-shaped shape towards the Tartar cavalry on the mountain road, and the result was very spectacular.

The Tartar cavalry on the outside fell down a large area. Many of the Tartar cavalry fell down on their horses, holding the wounds on their bodies undead, screaming shrillly.

More of the frightened war horses were running around and directly dispersed the formation of the Taurus cavalry behind them. The Taurus cavalry took action to kill these frightened war horses.

During this period, the shooting of the New Army Musketeers never stopped.

"Master Bell, be careful!"
