On March 16, the main force of the Ming army and the main force of the rebel army set up a formation on the west bank of Xiliang Lake.

I only saw flags flying on both sides and soldiers forming a forest.

The difference is that the turbulent army where Li Zicheng is located is erecting a four-meter-high gold-weaver dragon croaker. The golden gold-weaver dragon croaker was held by a burly man of seven feet tall, fluttering in the breeze, and looks very majestic.

Qin Zhao was arranged to the east of the battle formation, near the lake embankment of the big lake.

Yuan Jixian stood on a horse at the Central Military Office. Each of the twelve strong men behind him held a three-meter-high "Yuan" flag, and a golden drum ceremonial guard. He glanced at the battle formation everywhere, and finally stopped at Qin Zhao on the eastmost side.

Qin Zhao could use rockets to kill Liu Zongmin the day before yesterday, and today he should be able to match nearly 10,000 soldiers of the rebel army? In that case, the 70,000 official troops only need to win 20,000 soldiers to win.

Although the rebels who went south this time were all elite, with three or four people against one person, the government army really had no chance?

I only regret that Zuo Liangyu is afraid of the enemy like a tiger and has already escaped. Otherwise, the 200,000 troops from the left side would attack the rebel army from behind, which would be a sure victory.

Yuan Jixian sighed.

The Censor of the Inspector of Yuan Jixian said: "In this battle, our army and 100,000 thieves were fighting on the west bank of the lake, which was barely a mile. It may take a long time to decide the outcome."

Yuan Jixian nodded and said, "I'm afraid it won't be able to decide the outcome until dark today. I will continue fighting tomorrow and the next day."

All the generals nodded.

"The government is very insightful!"

"Governor-General's Mingjian!"

Speaking here, the trespasser troops on the opposite side have already come over.

Three thousand trekking soldiers wearing heavy fish scales covered the entire mile of the battlefield and pressed over with their stair bows.

Walking fifty steps away from the official army, where the small bows could not be shot here, these heavy archers of the rebel army raised the nine-strength heavy bow high.

"Swoosh swish swish!"

Only a sound of bowstrings was heard, and countless bows and arrows sprinkled on the front line of the government army like raindrops.

"Raising the shield!"

The front line of the official army suddenly heard panic raising shields. Countless soldiers put together the shields and formed a shield formation to resist the thrown arrows.

Most of the arrows were stopped by shields, but a very small number of arrows passed through the shield array and shot into the soldiers under the shield array.

Screams sounded, and casualties began to occur on the official army.

The heavy archers there were very tricky. The bows and arrows on their hands were soaked in feces today. Once the soldiers of the government army were hit, their wounds would be 100% infected with bacteria and were extremely difficult to heal.

The morale of the official army was so suppressed by these three thousand archers that he could not raise his head.

Yuan Jixian was so angry that his face was blood-red and shouted loudly: "How can they shoot like this at will? Rush up and fight each other!"

The drummer of the central army of the Ming army took a breath and beat the heavy drum that man was tall and strong. The horn hand bit the horn with the greatest strength and blew the horn violently.

The flag of the central army changed its position and signaled the front army to attack.

The generals of each town had long selected the best soldiers in the front line. When they saw the order to attack forward, they immediately shouted loudly, allowing the soldiers to attack a mile-wide battlefield.

The fish-scale armored archers retreated, and the thieves also made loud drums. Twenty thousand infantrymen wearing chain mail rushed up and strangled them with the soldiers of the official army.

On the battlefield, the swords and swords were suddenly shining, and the sound of killing was shocking!

Qin Zhao stood on the battlefield with his horse, allowing He Qiongwen, the governor of Ningbo, Zhejiang, to cross over to him and fight with the thieves.

Qin Ning asked: "Master Qianhu, why don't we bomb the rebel army?"

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "No hurry, let's take a look at the ability of the government army!"

At the beginning, the official army and the rebel army fought equally, regardless of their superiority.

Both sides have very dense teams, and it is impossible for them to rush into each other's camp to fight. Both sides use long weapons to assassinate each other, slap, block the grid, and maintain the front line. If one side is unfavorable, it will retreat to the rear to avoid it. The other party will panic when the opponent fails, and use long weapons to assassinate a soldier and advance to the front line.

Both sides fought on the front line.

The archers behind the front kept shooting arrows and scrambled the candidate soldiers behind the front.

But after half an hour of fighting, when the first batch of elite officials who came to the battlefield retreated and replaced the ordinary soldiers behind him to fight, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed.

The rebel army fought for half an hour and replaced them, but the rebels went south this time with elite soldiers, and there were no refugees who followed the thief.

The second batch of riots squeezed the front line here like cutting machines.

Experience is the most important thing when fighting on the front line of long weapons. Sometimes there will be long weapons suddenly coming from the left or right to assassinate new recruits who are not attentive enough. The old thieves of the rebel army sprint left and right one by one, with rich experience. How many of the aid battalions in various places have been on the battlefield? The experience is far from the same level.

Not to mention that the armor of the Break Army is complete, each of them is wearing chain mail and covered with cotton armor. Sometimes, even if the long spear and sword of the Ming army stabbed the soldiers of the Break Army, unless they stabbed with all their strength, they would not be able to penetrate the armor of the Break Army at all. The Ming army wore most of the mandarin duck war jackets, and very few could defend against long weapons assassination.

As they fought, the Ming army was constantly dying under swords and guns in front of the battlefield. The front line continued to squeeze towards the south of the Ming army. When they reached the back, the Ming army was already trembling and timid.

After only one hour of fighting, Qin Zhao felt that the Ming army could no longer defend the front and was about to collapse.

Qin Zhao was about to order the rocket team to shoot, but suddenly heard the drums and trumpets of the Central Military Office behind him waving again and the flags were waving.

More than 50 generals from all over the country who were supporting Wuchang were put on the battlefield and personally led their servants to the front line. Each of these generals had nearly 100 servants, and these servants were more elite soldiers than ordinary soldiers. Fifty groups of them rushed to the front line, and immediately stabilized the front line, which was only more than 500 meters wide in the battlefield.

Qin Zhao saw Ningbo general He Qiongwen and his servants fighting desperately in front of him, relying on his personal brute force to jump and stab at the front line. He did not see him dodge the spear of a thief on his left, and used the shoulder armor of Shan Wenjia's right shoulder to resist the long sword of another thief's soldier, and stabbed him into the throat of a thief with his right hand.

No thief even screamed and fell to the ground with a plop.

Qin Zhao saw that Yunnan ginseng general Sha Lianman was empty and jumped into the opposite gun forest like a tiger. He swung his scimitar and cut the thief's head off with his head. Then the weapons from all directions of the trespasser were stabbed towards Sha Lianman. Sha Lianman jumped suddenly and jumped back to the Ming army's front.

The front line gradually stabilized, and Qin Zhao smiled and said, "It's interesting."

Qin Ning asked nervously: "Brother Zhao, why don't we ejaculate?"

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "Wait a minute! Let me see the skills of the government army."

But in half an hour, these more than fifty generals could no longer withstand it.
Chapter completed!
