Zhang Quanquan, the commander of the sentry, took the lead, holding his bow and shooting as he walked, shooting at the next few people one after another.
The outpost soldiers of the flag-bearer Zuoying came down the mountain like tigers, and shouts of killing came from all directions. Shen Wenzhong led his country warriors to surround the battlefield on all sides, specifically to deal with the fleeing rebels.
Zhang Quan's outpost headquarters has 200 people, and Li Bizhong's rear camp has more than 300 people. However, among Li Bizhong's more than 300 people, more than 200 are just strong men. Even the 100 people in his headquarters are actually the only ones who can fight.
Ten servants.
Normally, he would follow Li Yuchun in most of his operations and loot the people without losing any chance. However, when he was attacked at this time, Li Bizhong was shot down with an arrow first, causing chaos immediately.
Especially the newly recruited young men were even more panicked, and many even took the opportunity to run away.
"Put your hands on your head, lie down and surrender, to avoid death!"
The soldiers of the flag-bearing battalion rushed forward with swords and guns, but they still did not forget the instructions before the war.
A few simple words, but they were very lethal among these panicked troops. Many strong men who could not escape decisively fell to the ground, clasped their hands behind their heads, and then shouted to surrender and spare their lives.
Li Bizhong's servants still tried to control the horse and wanted to save Li Bizhong, but the Qingqi Ye Buzui from the flag-bearer camp had already rushed over. They caught up with the horse and stabbed Li Bizhong in the back with one shot, holding him down.
After he was on horseback, he cut off Li Bizhong's head with a knife.
A fierce servant rushed towards him with a spear, but the knights turned around and left immediately. Just as the servant caught up a few steps, suddenly there were many spears and bows and arrows coming from the opposite side.
Suddenly, several more musket shots were fired, and the servant was shot down immediately with several bangs and bangs.
The few servants behind saw this and immediately started running away.
The entire battlefield was very chaotic, but the flagbearer battalion used teams as units to quickly divide the enemy forces on the battlefield. The soldiers in each area also kept the mandarin duck battle formation in mind and cooperated with each other, closely following each other with spears, spears, swords and blunderbuss.
If it were a normal confrontation with the enemy, Li Bizhong and his ten fierce servants, fully armored and leading the attack, would actually be capable of fighting. However, they underestimated the enemy and were ambushed. They killed the general as soon as the battle started. There were too many new recruits in the camp.
, coupled with the fact that they also brought a large amount of supplies and even many captive women of the common people, the entire team collapsed in the face of the battle.
Li Bizhong died, and another servant died, so the remaining servants saw that the situation was not good and started to run away.
As soon as they escaped, the entire battalion lost its fighting spirit and just scattered in all directions.
However, Shen Wenzhong led countless rural militiamen to blockade the battlefield on three levels inside and outside. Although these rural militiamen had little combat effectiveness, they were intercepted in groups of three to five, and in groups of seven or eight, holding up their long rifles.
With a spear and a hatchet, it is still very powerful against those soldiers who are fleeing in panic.
Not to mention, the two hundred officers and soldiers of the Flag Bearer Battalion were still plowing the ground, charging and killing them repeatedly.
Compared with the flag-bearer battalion, which was only focused on killing and defeating the rebels, the rural militiamen were actually more ferocious at this time. They often surrounded one of them in groups of seven, eight or even dozens. Once surrounded, they would throw spears, hatchets, or even axes at random.
After hacking and beating him randomly, he cut off his head and kept it for reward, and then stripped everything off his body.
From the armor to the clothes, not only the shoes were taken off, but even the underpants were not left behind.
In the end, only the naked, headless bodies were left, dumped in ditches in the fields.
The battle went more smoothly than expected, and the enemy troops were quickly defeated. The entire battle lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and more time was spent capturing prisoners.
Fortunately, thousands of troops came this time, and they had already surrounded them from three levels inside and three outside. It was very difficult for those soldiers who fled in panic to escape on this battlefield with crisscrossed water nets.
The vast majority of Li Bizhong's soldiers lay down on the ground and begged for mercy. This saved Zhang Quan and the others a lot of time, and they went up to tie these people up one by one.
The servants and old soldiers who tried to break out of the encirclement lay dead in the ditch one by one.
"Total annihilation!"
Shen Wenzhong met Zhang Quan very excitedly.
"Thanks to the brave militiamen brought by Mr. Shen, otherwise although we could defeat them today, it would not be easy to annihilate them all."
"They also know very well that this is a conservative village. If the defeated soldiers escape, it will cause chaos in the village. What's more, there will be a reward for capturing and killing." Shen Wenzhong looked at the soldiers who were still searching and mopping up the battlefield and blew. I was very excited to catch the cool breeze.
"Hurry up and clean the battlefield, be careful if the nearby puppet troops receive news and return for reinforcements."
Shen Wenzhong saw Zhang Dapeng coming over covered in blood, "Are you injured?"
"It's just a little skin injury." He was holding two heads in his hands, and three more were hanging on his waist. He was covered in blood, and with these heads, he looked like an evil ghost from hell. Shen Wenzhong could see it. Some palpitations.
Zhang Dapeng smiled innocently.
"You killed them all?"
"I killed three of them, and the other two were killed by our comrades together."
"Mr. Shen, can a thief cash in his five taels of silver?" Zhang Dapeng asked.
Shen Wenzhong frowned, "Of course I will fulfill the decree of the Supervisor, but you are a soldier of the flag-bearing camp. According to the rules of the camp, even if you cut off the head, you will only get half of the reward, and the other half will be distributed to the collective companions. "
"I understand, half is enough."
For battlefield beheading level one, the person who beheaded and the person who assisted can split half of the head reward, with the one who beheaded getting two-thirds, and the one who assisted got three points. The remaining half of the reward will be collected at the end. All the soldiers participating in the battle have a share. In doing so, we not only retain the merit of the head to encourage the soldiers to bravely charge, but also take into account all the soldiers participating in the battle.
After all, even if you don't get beheaded, your life is still at stake on the battlefield.
With five first-level skills, Zhang Dapeng could get almost 10 taels of silver reward. If the collective reward from this battle is also included, Zhang Dapeng made a big profit this time. Although he had to risk his life, it was still a huge reward. Lucky you.
"Mr. Shen, I want to ask, do what you said to me before the war still hold true?"
Shen Wenzhong glanced at him and said, "Do you really want to marry Widow Wang? She is nine years older than you. You are 18 years old, but she is a middle-aged widow of 27 with three children. Bottle, you have to think about it."
Zhang Dapeng said without hesitation, "Ever since I got along with Sister Wang, I really feel what family is. Sister Wang is a good woman and I am willing to marry her. They say that female college students hold gold bricks, and Sister Wang is nine years older than me." Years old, then I will hold three gold bricks."
Shen Wenzhong could only laugh and curse when he heard this.
"If you really want to marry me, I won't stop you, but I want to remind you that you have to think twice before doing anything. If you marry Widow Wang today, then you will never give up from the beginning to the end. A man must have a beginning and an end. Youxin, do you understand?"
"must."
"I will be your matchmaker later!"
Zhang Dapeng thanked him happily.
Under dusk, thousands of soldiers and soldiers quickly cleaned up the entire battlefield, beheaded dozens of people, and captured all the others. The strong men and women who had been robbed were also rescued and taken away from the battlefield together.
All the money, food and goods looted by Li Bizhong's camp were also transferred away.
Soon, thousands of people dispersed to various villages.
On the battlefield, only the strong smell of blood was left.
Almost at the same time that Zhang Quan and Shen Wenzhong launched a surprise attack on Li Bizhong's camp with thousands of troops, an almost identical battle started on the edge of a river a few miles away.
Those were the men and horses of the flag bearer's left camp and his right guard, leading Xiang Yong to launch a surprise attack on Li Yuchun's other battalion.
Farther away, almost the same battles started one after another.
On the field road that stretched for dozens of miles, half of Li Yuchun's thirty-odd battalions were ambushed at the same time.
Because they carried too many looted materials, too many strong men from Silla in the camp, and even brought many looted women, prostitutes, etc., Li Yuchun's army dragged on for too long.
They were too arrogant and underestimated the enemy. They came to plunder along the way. They were already so crazy that they never imagined that they would be attacked like this.
When the camp leaders who were attacked wanted to call for help, they found that they were surrounded on three levels, and it was difficult to go out to ask for help. Even if they were lucky enough to break through and report the news, they rushed to the nearby camp heads, only to find that they were also under attack.
The situation of a surprise attack and a siege.
When Li Yuchun, who was not far from Zhujiazhuang, realized something was wrong and received the Qingqi alarm, it was already too late.
It was already night.
The front camp attacked Zhujiazhuang three times. As a result, the landlord's manor was extremely tough and the guards were very tenacious. There were even fire blunderbuss and many bows and arrows on the city wall. The front camp lost many people and failed to capture it.
Originally, Li Yuchun didn't care. If he couldn't fight today, he would fight again tomorrow. How could a small country squire's manor withstand seven or eight thousand of his people?
The five hundred Tatar cavalry stood by and watched without any intention of taking action. They had reaped countless benefits on their way east, but they didn't do any of the dirty work, so they wandered over easily and stood up early.
Just let Li Yuchun do the work of setting up accounts, eating wine and barbecue, even playing with women, fighting and robbing.
There was no contact with the battalion leader behind for a long time. Li Yuchun realized something was wrong and went to check on Qingqi. He only found battlefields everywhere and many naked and headless corpses.
A dozen battalion leaders disappeared all of a sudden, and Li Yuchun couldn't help but be shocked.
He ordered the entire army to be on alert overnight and ordered the remaining battalions to quickly move closer to him.
He also personally rushed to the camp of the Manchu adults, reported to Jia La Zhang Jing Qishiha who was leading the troops, and asked for help in defense.
But Jishika, who was holding the woman in his arms and had a red face and was half drunk, didn't pay attention. Instead, he laughed at Li Yuchun's incompetence. Three or four thousand people were gone in half a day.
"Lord Jishika, there were reports from various places that many rural groups appeared here. I thought it was a bit exaggerated. Now it seems there is something wrong here. I guess that a Ming army may have arrived here."
"Ming Army, how can there be any Ming Army here? A group of servants of squires and landlords guarding the courtyard, with a bunch of mud-legged people, just ate thousands of your people. Li Yuchun, you are really incompetent."
The dignified deputy commander-in-chief was scolded by a guerrilla, but Li Yuchun did not dare to refute, but reminded him again that what they encountered must be a regular army. As for where they came from, they might be soldiers who had fled to Jiangnan from Nanjing, such as
Yang Wencong, Liu Kongzhao or Shen Youlong, Chen Wu, Chao Chaoxian, etc. It may also be Wang Zhiren, Huang Binqing or Zhang Mingzhen who came from eastern Zhejiang. In short, it is definitely not a group of landlords and township groups. They are not capable of launching more than a dozen campaigns at the same time.
He could attack and eat all of his dozen or so battalions.
The combat effectiveness displayed is very terrifying, especially since they must have planned it in advance and their command and layout capabilities are very strong. It is impossible for the landlords to unite to achieve it.
Qishiha pushed the woman in his arms away, picked up the wine glass and drank another glass.
"If there really is the Ming Dynasty army you mentioned, it would be interesting. I was feeling a little bored along the way. Haha, let them come. I want to see which one it is, but whether it is Yang Wencong or the Yang Wencong you mentioned
If Liu Kongzhao or Huang Fei, Wu Zhikui, Chen Wu, etc. dare to come, I will twist off his head and use it as a chamber pot, just in time to ask for credit from Bo Luobele."
