The official army was getting closer and closer, and some spearmen in the spearmen battle formation trembled.

When Cao Guang noticed, his brows frowned slightly.

The spearmen who trembled on their bodies were mostly soldiers who later joined the two squadrons of Daliangshan, because only these two squadrons had not experienced the actual battle of robbing the Xuji Convoy, and had always been training step by step. This was the first time that they officially appeared on the battlefield, and they were still facing the official army.

"It's great that I've experienced this time." Zhang Hongtu noticed Cao Guang's dissatisfied expression and explained in a low voice.

Cao Guang nodded slightly.

One hundred steps...90 steps...80 steps...

The order flag in Chen Miao's hand was held steadily in his hand, and the blue veins on his forehead bulged, proving that he was not calm inside.

The official army approached step by step.

As the squadron leader, what he was most worried about was whether the musketeers under him could stabilize and would not be afraid of facing the official army.

Although his squadron's musketeer set up an ambush in the forest with Malin and fought with the official army once, it was a sneak attack, which was different from the current situation.

The oppression brought by hundreds of officials rushing over is completely different from sneak attacks.

Seventy steps...

"Let me go!" Chen Miao shouted, and waved the flag in his hand.

Bang...bang...

A series of muskets were fired, which made Chen Miao feel relieved, proving that the muskets under his command did not panic and successfully fired the muskets.

After his team of musketeers fired the musket, he ordered: "Get back, clean the pot and reload it."

Even without his orders, after repeated training, after the musketeers in their hands, they avoided the musketeers in the second row and retreated directly to the back of the third row of musketeers.

Then began to clean the pot and reload the gunpowder and lead.

When the musketeers of the first squadron retreated, the musketeers of the second squadron, who were standing in the second row, became the first squadron. Under the order of his own squadron leader, they fired the musketeers in their hands.

With the musketeers of the first squadron as an example, the musketeers of the second squadron successfully fired the musketeers of their hands.

After the test, you also retreat to the last row and start cleaning the pot and reloading it.

At this time, the musketeer of the third squadron was in the front.

"Let me go!" The squadron leader of the third squadron waved his hand with a expressionless face, and shouted in his mouth.

Bang... Another row of muskets were fired out.

After the battle was released, there was no result of the battle. The musketeers of the third squadron retreated to the back and reloaded the musketes.

"It seems that the official army is going to be defeated." Zhang Hongtu, who was standing beside Cao Guang, whispered.

The hundreds of officials and infantrymen who were rushing towards them were killed or injured by the three-wheeled muskets. In addition to being killed on the spot, many of them were injured but not dead for a while and fell to the ground and screamed.

The one with the most casualties were Wu Huai's personal soldiers.

These people rushed to the front and were taken seriously by the musketeers. Even some personal soldiers wearing mail could not withstand the lead of the musketeers.

Even the mail is not as good as the cotton armor when it comes to the lead shot from the musket.

Hundreds of officials were beaten to death and injured more than 30 people at once. Nearly 30% of the war were damaged, which directly caused the officials who rushed to the mountain village to defeat, and the living soldiers fled in scattered.

"Go, I will hold it down and slash back!" Wu Huai ordered with a bright face.

Even the bandits were not met, and only the hundreds of officials were left with less than 70 people, and the rest of the soldiers were even defeated, and most of the casualties were his personal soldiers.

The personal soldiers next to him advised: "Sir, please retreat. The bird guns in the bandits' hands are different from the bird guns we use. They are too powerful and our people can't get close to them at all."

"I will not give up." Wu Huai said gritting his teeth.

He had already touched the bandit's nest, but as soon as he fought, he had a big defeat, but he was defeated by a group of bandits, destroying more than a dozen of his personal soldiers. These personal soldiers were raised by him with his own money, not ordinary soldiers in the camp. Such failures and losses were difficult for him to accept.

"Sir." said the personal soldiers next to him, "We have too few people. When the troops brought by Mr. Xu arrive, they will definitely rush into the village and kill all these bandits."

A personal soldier on the other side said, "Yes, it's better to preserve your strength. Anyway, these bandits can't escape. Once the army arrives, they will definitely be able to wipe them out in one fell swoop."

Wu Huai's anger calmed down a lot.

He also knew that it would be difficult to kill the bandits on the opposite side with his men alone. The opponent's bird gun was too powerful and very sophisticated, which was completely different from the bird gun created by the Ministry of Works.

More importantly, the bandits in front of them are very skilled in using bird guns. After a long time of training, they not only know the three-stage shooting used by the Qi family army, but also the speed of loading and launching bird guns is far higher than that of the bird gunmen in Fubiao Camp.

"retreat!"

Wu Huai knew that he could not help the bandits in front of him when he was still staying there, so he waved his hand and turned his head to retreat down the mountain.

When he retreated, the soldiers who were hesitant fled down the mountain like a tide.

Soon, only a single corpse was left on the open space in front of the village, and some serious injuries and undead officials and soldiers were left.

"Captain, we won." Marin said excitedly.

Not only him, but many musketeers and spearmen in the three squadrons showed joy.

When they learned the news of the attack of the official army, many new soldiers from the three squadrons were afraid and worried about being wiped out by the official army, especially those who fled in Liaodong. They were originally the people of the Ming Dynasty, but now they have become bandits on the mountain. Once the mountain village is broken by the official army, no one cares who they were before, and they will only treat them as bandits Mingzhengdian.

"I just won a battle for the time being." Cao Guang said calmly.

If his brigade has more than 400 people and even more than 100 official troops, then he will not have to do the brigade leader.

"The captain said that there are still troops at the foot of the mountain." Zhang Hongtu said, "I hope that the officials at the foot of the mountain can retreat voluntarily when they learn about the defeat of these officials in front of them, otherwise there will be a fierce battle below."

Marin nodded in agreement.

The ones who were attacked by him before were the troops of the government army. He knew clearly that there were still five or six hundred people in the government army. Even if he was attacked by him, there would be four or five hundred people. In addition, the newly defeated official troops, there were at least six hundred people left.

Comparing the number of people alone, the number of officials is more than that of their bandits in Daliangshan.

At this time, Chen Miao ran over from his squadron, came to Cao Guangjin, and said, "Captain, after the official army retreated, some seriously injured and undead people were left behind. Should the subordinates send people to give them a pleasure? They can also train their soldiers who have never seen blood in the team to practice and be brave."

"Do not worry about it." Cao Guang waved his hand and immediately said, "Keep these undead soldiers here, so that they can show the officials coming from behind to the scene of the attack on Daliangshan."

"Then I will not send anyone to clean the battlefield." Chen Miao nodded.

Cao Guang said: "You go back and watch out for your squadron, stay alert, there will be a bad battle to fight later."

"yes."
