Chapter 31 Wild Goose (please read it!)

The sound of killing was loud and smoke was everywhere.

The soldiers of the Dashun Army rushed into the front line of the Qing Army like a tide on wooden planks and ladders laid by their predecessors.

The soil has already turned reddish brown, and the blood cannot solidify.

Li Shutai held the Yanling knife tightly. There were several mutilated corpses at his feet. The originally solid land had been washed away by blood and became a little muddy.

The sounds of fighting and shouting echoed in my ears.

The artillery on Niutou Plateau screamed from time to time, pouring hundreds of projectiles into the bandits' team. Amidst the screams, many severed limbs flew across.

Bits and pieces of blood gathered on the gun helmet and dripped from the edge, like the eaves of a house after heavy rain.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Sutai wiped away the blood, threw it away, and raised his eyes.

The sun gradually sets in the west, and the golden afterglow shines on the battlefield. What remains unchanged is the blood-like sunset.

Suddenly, a cloud of dust and smoke rose up from the far end of the road behind him, like a whirlwind. Gradually, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and a group of cavalry came galloping over.

"The reinforcements are here, the reinforcements are here!"

"I want to see what these bandits are planning!"

Corpses littered the ground, the ground was devastated, and even the ground turned auburn.

The ordinary soldiers who were originally used to lay trenches were protected in the middle by the shield array and followed the army forward.

Duduo sneered at Nikan's suggestion, pondered for a long time, and suddenly said with great certainty.

Duduo sneered, put down his telescope, and straightened his gun helmet.

The Dashun army marched on the footsteps of victory in the first battle, reflecting the light of the fire, and moved towards Duduo's camp with an unstoppable force.

"Should we bring back the 20,000 green battalions on both sides immediately?"

"This group of bandits has a very simple formation. They form a team of a hundred people, and they advance and retreat according to the drums. They are not like the old and the weak!"

Nikan was slightly startled and observed with a telescope.

The white-armored Niulu recalled the battlefield just now and said quickly.

"It's Liu Zongmin!"

After the Dashun Army's long snake formation rushed through the ditch, it gradually turned into a wild goose formation with the sound of trumpets. The front row and both sides were filled with veteran soldiers who had experienced many battles.

Duduo's face didn't look much better, and his tone was frighteningly indifferent. Then he picked up the telescope again to observe the situation.

"Nikan, you still have a lot to learn. In my opinion, although these bandits are large in number, they are not all the main force."

More than a dozen Manchu sentries galloped back. One of them, a white-armored Niulu, dismounted and stepped forward to report the battle situation in a solemn voice.

Above these fortifications, fires billowed into the sky.

Li Shutai was stabbed again in the back, his skin and flesh were torn apart, and blood flowed unstoppably from the wound.

Behind them, the three thousand Qing army's green battalion had completely collapsed, and the Dashun army in Tsing Yi seized one fortification after another.

"You haven't thought about it. In the past, Thief Li always regarded the old bandit as his life. When did he ever use such desperate tactics?"

"Wow--"

Berenikan, who was wearing a red flag in Manchuria, was also holding up a telescope to observe, but the one in his hand could not see as far and clearly as Duduo.

Duduo held a telescope and looked at the battlefield ahead, his voice a little surprised.

"Must win!"

"Did Li Sutai escape from the battlefield?"

Duduo couldn't believe it, and looked sideways, with a bone-chilling chill in his voice.

The earth-shattering sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded from both sides, and a bearded general in Tsing Yi led many fine cavalry to gallop out and went straight to the Manchu cavalry on both sides of Duduo's camp.

"It is better to mobilize the green battalions on the left and right sides and form a defensive formation in front of the main camp. Otherwise, this group of bandits will rush straight into the central army, and I am afraid that our Jianzhou warriors will suffer a lot of damage."

Could it be that he had miscalculated? All the main forces of the rogue bandits were gathered at the front, and there were no troops at all on either side.

With Saburo's desperate posture, he clearly wanted to rush straight to the camp. Duduo frowned and secretly doubted in his heart.

Before this group of Manchu cavalry approached the battlefield, they immediately stopped their horses and stopped to look into the distance. Everyone's eyes were extremely cold, and they had no intention of stepping forward to support them.

At this moment, the sound of neat steps and drums came from ahead.

"On the battlefield, you can't rely on what you see. You must also consider what you don't see."

"Hmph, I think they are trying to make a fool of themselves!"

"These are all elite veteran bandits under Li Thief. They are not comparable to ordinary rogue bandits."

"Report to Prince Yu!"

Li Shutai faced the sky, unable to hold the knife tightly in his hand, and felt that the whole sky turned to blood in his bloodshot eyes.

"I will ask for credit for Li Litai in front of the regent."

It seemed as if the three thousand Qing soldiers who were fighting hard in front of them were not human beings, but just more than three thousand cannon fodder testing the strength of the bandits.

"This is my king's military order. The green battalions on both sides will not move. The artillery battalions on the mountain will give me a hard hit on the big blue paper!"

Duduo held the horse's rein tightly with one hand and shouted backwards.

"What are they looking at?"

These oncoming bandits were all vicious and vicious men equipped with full sets of armor. Every hundred men formed a team, led by a captain. They were bound by strict military discipline and their ability to slash and kill was no less than that of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

On both sides were Dashun's cavalry, with smoke billowing and flags waving along the way, blocking out the sky and the sun.

The incoming rogue bandits were so numerous that the Qing army's camp was on the verge of collapse.

The sounds of fighting, shouting, and gunfire that filled this place not long ago disappeared, but made the silence at this time seem extremely ferocious.

"How did the prince see it? I see that these bandit flags are on all sides, and the number of people is endless."

Li Shutai's face showed a bit of ferocity, but the next moment, the tip of a knife shining with blood was pierced from his chest and abdomen.

Everything disappeared, and soon even Li Sutai's consciousness began to become blurred.

"Prince Huiyu, all the bandits coming out of the customs are wearing green clothes. They are holding large shields in the front line and forming a long snake formation. There are tens of thousands of horses and horses. They are well prepared!"

It can be clearly seen in the telescope that smoke is billowing from where Li Shutai's Three Thousand Green Camp was stationed. The ravines he painstakingly excavated have been directly filled in, and all the fortifications have been burned to the ground.

"Li led Tai's 3,000 men, who had a favorable location for their fortifications and an artillery battalion to provide continuous support, but they only lasted less than two hours."

The rumble of horse hooves sounded, and a dozen Manchu cavalrymen who had been watching for a long time exchanged a few words with each other, then resolutely turned their horses' heads and galloped away in the direction they came from.

Li Shutai screamed and fell into a pool of blood. Next to him, Qing soldiers from the Zhenglan Banner of the Han Army were hacked to the ground one after another.

"The three thousand green battalions four miles away were completely wiped out, all the fortifications were occupied by rogue bandits, and Zhenglan Banner's forward leader Li Shutai died in the rebellion!"

"Li Shutai's 3,000 Green Battalion has good combat effectiveness and is backed by fortifications. If the rogue bandits weren't so powerful, how could they not have been able to hold on for two hours?"

"Da Shun will win!!"

"Send additional sentries to conduct careful reconnaissance near Yuanwang Valley!"

The knife was pierced from behind and then withdrawn without hesitation. The strength that Li Sutai had supported for a long time seemed to be stripped out of his body along with the blade.

Countless soldiers wearing green arrow-coats passed by him, but no one paid attention to his steps.

The Dashun army once again formed a long snake formation, and gathered into a crowd under a large blue banner. They were skillfully filling in the ravines along the way, and rushed to the camp without stopping.

The Manchurian Eight Banners formation beside Duduo was solemn and majestic. In their impression, the bandits often collapsed at the first touch. Since arriving at Tongguan, they had never experienced a frontal charge by the bandits.

The Manchurian soldiers also had solemn expressions on their faces, each holding their swords and spears tightly, with murderous intent flashing in their eyes.

Behind them, numerous Manchu sentries rumbled out and galloped to both sides.
