The large loading volume of the big pole gun is destined to have a longer range than that of the musket. Fu Gui's javelin team skilled by Fu Gui can hit the enemy within 50 steps, but most of them can only throw about forty steps. The reason is that the Huai Army's javelins are constructed with bamboo guns, which not only causes the javelin to be insufficient for long-range shooting, but also has poor accuracy.

The Javelin Team in Guazhou's Battle also had very limited results in actual combat. After the war, Lu Si gave up the plan to expand the Javelin Team. Instead, Zheng Yuanxun asked several carpenters to create a "bolt" for the Huai Army that could fire five or even ten consecutive branches. The principle was similar to the ancient heavy crossbow, but after a few months, the carpenters could not find out what they were saying.

The Huai Army, which had no long-range weapon, could only hide behind shields and carts under the attack of the Ming army's large pole guns. Tian Xiong was worried that if the sun set, it might not be able to annihilate the Huai thieves if it was exhausted like this, so he asked his subordinate Luo Xinggui to abandon the horse and fight in a staircase manner and use muskets to suppress the Huai thieves, which made the Huai thieves unable to withstand the pressure and collapse. In this way, they could ride horses and kill, and then take the opportunity to seize the city.

Ma Degong felt sorry for the losses of dozens of his subordinates, so he did not dare to ask his troops to attack again. Seeing that Luo Xinggui was suppressing the Huai bandits, he didn't dare to raise his head, and also asked Chang Jinzhong and others to abandon Ma Yibu.

The two Ming troops were about 700 guns shot from the left and right sides, and guns kept coming in from all gaps, making the Huai army hiding behind shields and chariots unpredictable. From time to time, someone was shot and quickly pulled back.

Looking at the city wall in the distance, more than two thousand people gathered together, just like ants surrounded by them.

Gao Qifeng was extremely anxious and stomped her feet on the city wall, but she couldn't solve the situation.

"God, why doesn't it rain?"

Fu Gui looked up at the sky, and it was impossible for God to change the sky to turn the fire stick.

All around, there were the whistling sounds of soldiers who were hitting guns, and the sound of fire guns in their ears was constantly blowing. The fire guns of the officers and soldiers might not be able to fire for a long time, and they began to take turns to attack. Even so, the Huai Army only had the casualties but still had no counterattack power and did not dare to rush over.

Half of the Ming army did not dismount, but accumulated horsepower not far away waiting for the Huai army to rush out of the "turtle formation".

"Support me, see how much medicine he has in his dog days!"

Wu Youfu didn't believe in this evil. After participating in the Battle of Shi Jiadang, he looked through the murdered Ming army gun soldiers after the war and found that the gunpowder they carried was only one pound of at most, and it cost five or six cents to load at a time, so he thought that the Ming army could not keep firing guns.

I thought that after a long time when I was hit, there should be no medicine, so I looked up from behind the gun blocking plate. But my left arm suddenly hurt, but I called the gun to hit it. I was bleeding profusely, and the pain was so painful that I felt cold sweat.

"Fu Tou!"

Several subordinates quickly came over to help Wu Youfu bandage and stop bleeding.

"Don't worry about me, I can't die!"

Wu Youfu pushed everyone away, anxious and angry. The Ming army's fighting style really made him feel very frustrated, but he had no way to deal with it.

If the governor was here, he would have brought the iron armored guard to kill the horse and cut the bastards!

But if the governor is here, will he save people?

Wu Youfu didn't know either. He was one of the few people who knew that the Northern Army asked the governor for help three times, but the governor refused to send a single army.

.........

After all, Baoying's Huai Army is not the main force. It is good to be able to hold on until now in such a completely passive situation, but it is difficult for them to hold on until the end.

After fighting at this moment, the Ming army also completely understood the background of the "Huai Pirates" in front of them. These people had no other weapons except for the big sword, spear and some javelins.

Therefore, what they want now is that some of the Huai thieves can't bear to jump up and run. They will not shoot and kill these escaped people, nor will they rush to chase and chop, because they need these deserters to become role models of the "Hui thieves" who are still insisting on.

As long as the "Huai Pirates" collectively flee to the city wall, this battle will be completely final.

Lu Guangyuan and Fu Gui and others in front thought of this and realized that a collapse would definitely happen if this continues. They all believed that the first ones to run were definitely those who were not very reliable.

Before the war, Lu Guangyuan arranged for Song Laogua to take charge behind him, and then transferred a team of people from his direct line, the Second Second Battalion, to command Song Laogua, and told Song Laogua to kill him immediately if anyone escaped and never be ruthless.

However, what Lu Guangyuan didn't expect was that the first person who had the idea of ​​escaping was the team of his new second battalion.

"Lao Gua, this war cannot be fought, so let us go!"

The team officer of the New Second Battalion Zhou Tui and Song Laogua are neighbors in the same village, and the Sanguaizi Fugui who was commanding in front is also from their village.

"It's still too late for us to run away. If it's too late, I can't run away!" On Tuesday, he thought that he and Song Laogua were in the same village and were still intimate, so he wanted to take Song Laogua to go together.

"There are no military orders from the governor, and no one is allowed to leave!"

Song Laogua didn't even want to put the knife on Zhou Er's neck, and her eyes looked at Zhou Er's fiercely like a fire.

The big knife on his neck suddenly frightened Zhou Tuesday and said in panic: "Lao Gua, don't do anything randomly!...The Ming army is too powerful, we can't beat it, so we have to retreat to the city quickly, otherwise we will die if we let the horse go."

"Don't let your mother go, I'll tell you to run away!"

Song Laogua was furious and held the knife and wanted to kill the bastard who was afraid of death. However, as soon as he raised the knife, his body was hit hard. Before he could figure out what was going on, several men on Tuesday took off the knife from his hand.

"What are you doing!"

Song Laogua's subordinates surrounded him with a knife and looked at the group of people on Tuesday nervously.

"Brothers, don't do anything. They are all from the villagers. We just don't want to die here." Zhou Tuesday signaled his subordinates to put down the knife and walked to Song Laogua and persuaded: "Laogua, let's go together. If you don't leave in this situation, it will be too late."

"No one can leave without military orders."

Song Laogua was so angry that she trembled all over. He was always on guard against the surrendered soldiers in front of him to escape, but he didn't expect that they would run away first on Tuesday.

"Old Gua, your mind is in a mess!" Tuesday was also anxious.

Song Laogua snorted: "Since you have become the Huai Army, you have to obey military discipline. You cannot leave without military orders!"

"Damn it, can I not be this Huai Army? Can I go home and farm?" Zhou Er took off his clothes and threw them on Song Laogua in anger.

"Yes, we're going home to farm now!"

Seeing this, the soldiers under Zhou Er took off their military uniforms and shouted that they were leaving.

"you?"

Song Laogua was stunned, bit her lips tightly until blood oozed out, and her face was as dry as if it was dead. For a while, she said in a deep voice: "When you go, the young governor in front will definitely not be able to withdraw."

"This will save your life first."

Tuesday sighed. The young governor was very nice to him, but now he couldn't help but think about himself. Could it be that he really wanted to bury his surname Lu?

"Save your life?"

Song Laogua stared at Zhou Er with a strange smile on her lips, "You can leave, I won't stop you, but you don't forget if there is one thing."

"What's up?"

The look of the call of Song Laogua on Tuesday made her scalp feel numb.

"You are gone, Lu Wenzong will definitely kill your wife and children. Don't forget, they are all in the old camp."

After saying that, Song Laogua turned sideways and signaled that they could leave on Tuesday.
