After a period of confusion, the Qing army mounted their horses and fled again. They lost several horses and injured several people. Their morale became even more demoralized. They kept looking to both sides suspiciously, wary of sudden murderous weapons. Not only that, the Qing soldiers in front also wanted to
He opened his eyes wide and paid attention to the horse's rope, and his speed slowed down involuntarily.
The road had been attacked, but it had been paved hastily when the Qing army came, and Zhang Yong also repaired it when he led his troops to retreat, so it was not a big problem for the horses to gallop.
The raindrops hit his face, body, and even got into his eyes quickly. Ma Bao closed one eye and wiped it with his hand, then closed the other one and wiped it.
Although there are still many people in the Qing army, they were completely mentally destroyed by the shock of the sky-blasting cannon and the escape of the general. The Qing soldiers who fled along the road lost the consciousness that they must have as soldiers, and many of them had a string of weapons in their hands.
The weapons were also thrown away, and the armor had long since become a burden and was ruthlessly abandoned.
Faced with the pursuit of Lian Yu, the Qing soldiers did not have the courage to turn around and fight. They ran around in panic and screamed, or knelt down and kowtowed to beg for their lives, or got into the jungle beside the road, or ran slowly and were killed by the Ming army.
The cavalry killed him with swords and guns, leaving him as a dead body lying in the mud and ignored.
The cavalry led by General Ma Bao were not in a hurry to kill the fleeing Qing soldiers. These deserters isolated by the cavalry would either be killed or captured. There was no need to waste their precious time. They hurriedly captured two Qing soldiers.
, after asking Qingxian where Guoan was, the cavalry galloped in hot pursuit.
It was a long-lost feeling of joy! Ma Bao sighed in his heart. Once upon a time, he led the remnant army into the mountains and into the forest to avoid the Qing army and escaped. Unexpectedly, the situation changed and the roles changed so quickly. This was him
Things I never dreamed of before.
Traveling for more than 60 miles a day, they raised three camps in a row. They didn't move, but their movements were as powerful as destroying everything. After the consecutive victories, the morale of the Ming army was extremely high. When Yongli entered Burma, most of the negative effects of the emperor's abandonment of the country were gone.
Be swept away.
This is all the work of His Highness Min! It is true that God has given him the blessing of heaven. Seeing His Highness’s expression, he was quite disdainful of the Yin×men formation of the Qing army. He did not use magic weapons or incense candles, but just bowed his sword deeply and stroked it, and it was easily broken.
Formation, the power of the sky-blasting cannon is even greater than before. How strange and extraordinary!
Ma Bao let out a long breath and felt very lucky for his original choice. He even felt that being able to follow Zhu Yongxing east to Annan was a great opportunity in his life. It would be easy to make achievements, just like now.
The three thousand elite cavalry were mostly in leather and mail armor. They only carried one day's dry food and had more than a thousand horses that could be rotated. It could be said that they were pursued by light cavalry.
However, Xian Guoan's several hundred cavalrymen had not abandoned their helmets and fled lightly. First, Xian Guoan felt that although the Qing soldiers in the camp were defeated, there were really many of them, and it would take a long time for the Ming army to clean them up; secondly, he
He believed that the Ming army, both on the march and attacking the city, was almost exhausted and could not pursue it. The third issue was his face. Before they were at the end of their rope, they were as embarrassed as a bereaved dog. This was really not what he wanted in his heart.
If the commander did not issue an order, the guards and cavalry following him would certainly not dare to make their own decisions, lest they offend Xian Guoan, who was already in a bad mood after the defeat.
Even so, escaping was not a smooth journey. Although each attack by tripping horses' legs, spear darts, and crossbows could not kill too many Qing soldiers, it constantly slowed down their speed and shortened the distance between them and the Ming army's pursuers.
Two dead horses lay on the ground, as well as the abandoned corpses of Qing soldiers, who had been shot to death by spear darts, lying miserably on their backs in the muddy water, with eyes like dead fish staring straight into the rainy sky.
"The enemy is already exhausted and has been harassed and attacked. This is a good opportunity for us to kill the enemy and make contributions." Ma Bao took advantage of the opportunity to stop and observe and changed his war horse. After getting on the horse, he shouted loudly: "My sons.
, keep chasing, and kill the enemy to pieces."
"Leave no scrap of armor behind." Many Ming cavalrymen also changed their horses. At this time, they responded to the shout and started again, embarking on the road of pursuit again.
……………
Stretch, stretch, two stumbling ropes suddenly popped up in the muddy water, knocking down three Qing soldiers, causing the Qing soldiers' team to stop again.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... In the jungle on one side of the road, spears, spears, and crossbow arrows flew out suddenly, causing screams and horses neighing.
This is a group of three small groups of strong men and horses from the Mengshan Ke tribe. There are more than thirty people, led by the village leader Rob. They intercept and kill the scouts and explore the horses. A small number of Qing soldiers are the most active.
"Kill, search and kill the enemy!" Xian Guoan jumped off his horse, roared and pointed his knife.
He has endured it for too long. These attackers scattered in the grass and woods have harassed you again and again, just like annoying mosquitoes, buzzing around you and trying to bite you from time to time. This
It simply added fuel to Guoan's already simmering regret, making him furious.
Throwing spears, broad knives, hand axes... The Qing soldiers first attacked the jungle grass and trees randomly, then used their swords and guns to pull out the branches and weeds, and searched deeply.
Xian Guoan waited for a while on the road under the protection of his personal guards, and took a rest to rest his horse power. Most of them were still wearing combat armor, which undoubtedly increased the burden on the horses. Some of the horses sprayed white foam, which was obviously very exhausted.
big.
"Sir." The guard captain suddenly became nervous, listened carefully with open ears, and said in surprise: "Listen, is this the sound of horse hooves, or -"
Xian Guoan frowned, carefully distinguishing between the sounds of rain hitting leaves and the rustling of grass, and his face gradually became horrified. Yes, it was the sound of horse hooves, and the direction was behind him, and it was the pursuit of soldiers.
"Retract troops, retreat." Xian Guoan shouted hurriedly, grabbed the reins and mounted his horse.
"Retreat, retreat, the enemy is catching up." The anxious shouts rang out one after another in the team, and before the soldiers in the grass and woods could withdraw, the team had already begun to gallop forward.
By the time the Qing soldiers who were searching for and killing the enemy in the jungle hurriedly withdrew, the group had already moved some distance away, and only the backs of the cavalry could be seen. These guys yelled and hurriedly got on their horses to catch up. Several Qing soldiers could not find their horses, and they did not know.
Did the war horses run away with the brigade, or were they led away by some unscrupulous and selfish people? There were few horses and many people, and you were fighting for it, and there was another chaos.
The rapid sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, completely covering up the noise in the rain. I could hear it very clearly, and I didn't know how many pursuers were coming to kill me.
The Qing soldiers fled in panic, leaving only a few unlucky ones who had been knocked down on the road. Hearing the thunderous sound of hooves, these unlucky ones reluctantly got up and ran into the jungle howling.
In a moment, the long Ming army cavalry team was like a long dragon, chasing after them. They didn't even care about the dead horses and corpses on the road, and rumbled past.
