As Li Shixun expected, shortly after the Qing army was completed, many Ming troops rushed out from behind the hills and the woods. The Ming troops sneaked to the vicinity of the Qing army and suddenly shouted and rushed out together. When they found that the enemy was not aiming at them with their side and backs as they imagined, but holding spears and shields, they had already set up a defensive formation, the Ming troops stopped in front of the Qing army formation, and their shouts also became silent, and they seemed a little at a loss.

"Shoot the arrow!" Li Shixun shouted vigorously, and waved the sword in his hand towards the Ming army.

The Qing army archers bent their bows and pulled arrows and shot towards the Ming army. Many Ming army were caught and fell to the ground. While the Qing army archers were taking arrows and preparing to shoot for another round, countless locusts suddenly emerged from the Ming army behind the front row, making a whizzing sound of breaking through the air, and rushed towards the Qing army's position.

"Raising the shield!"

Suddenly seeing the enemy arrows attacked, the Qing army officers in the front row screamed almost at the same time.

After hearing this order, the shield players subconsciously raised their shields, and the pouring arrows nailed them one after another, hitting the soldiers holding the shields one after another. Most of the feathered arrows were blocked, and only a few shot into the crowd, killing some Qing archers who were not wearing heavy armor.

This limited counterattack did not affect the speed of the next round of shooting in the Qing army. Soon the Qing archers bent their bows to the sky neatly, and with the officer's order, they attacked the Ming army again. Then the Ming army's counterattack... The hand-to-hand combat troops of the two armies did not immediately contact, and they attacked each other with bows and arrows for four or five rounds.

The Qing army had not yet shaken any of the situation. The Ming army's hand-to-hand combat soldiers could no longer bear it because of the continuous casualties. Someone in the Ming army in the front row retreated without waiting for the banner. He shot two more rounds. The Qing army heard the clear sound of gold coming from the Ming army formation. After hearing this sound, the Ming army in the front row left the Qing army formation like a general amnesty, and only the Ming army's archers continued to attack the Qing army one round after another.

Seeing the Ming army retreating, many generals and officials of the Qing army were eager to try and intend to launch an attack. The so-called defeat is like a mountain of fall, and a brave pursuit can make the enemy unable to restrain themselves, and go from retreating to retreat. At that time, add another force to make the opponent defeat, thus laying the foundation for today's victory in one fell swoop.

At this time, behind the Ming army's formation, He Zhen, who ordered the gold to be heard, had already reached a relatively forward position, widening his eyes and observing the actions of the Qing army camp opposite. He cannot but admit that Li Shixun has made progress compared to before, but He Zhen did not stand still, but made further improvements and strengthens the tactics of luring the enemy. Now he is looking for the best opportunity to implement a series of tricks to lure the enemy.

When He Zhen was full of expectations, Li Shixun on the opposite side had already found that the Qing army was about to start a pursuit. He hurriedly ordered his subordinates to rush to the golden crazily and not allow anyone to take the initiative.

In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, Li Shixun also ordered his servants to go to the generals to pass the order immediately, so that the entire army would strictly guard the situation and behead anyone who made arbitrarily move forward.

Watching the Ming army fleeing far away, all the generals and subordinates of the Qing army were extremely anxious. There were also those Ming army archers, who were not far away and had no hand-to-hand combat troops to protect them, but the commander sounded the gold without beating the drums, and sent his confidants to reiterate the order and not allow anyone to attack. A bad-tempered general of Yiling was not far from Li Shixun's general flag. After hearing this ridiculous order, he ran to Li Shixun in front of him in three steps and asked if the other party would fight? Why did he spare the opportunity to defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop?

Faced with the rudeness of this subordinate, Li Shixun was not angry, but shook his head slightly and sighed, "You don't know the cunning of the thief."

When he first encountered the Ming army's time-attracting enemy time, Li Shixun knew nothing about this plan. Seeing that He Zhen was few, he didn't think much about it. He rushed up quickly, and then he lost control of the army in a confused manner. Relying on his horse's speed, he finally escaped from heaven. Later, when he met He Zhen, Li Shixun felt that the other party would not use the same strategy to him again - if that was the other party too despised his IQ - so Li Shixun launched a full charge again, and then fled again with defeat. Later, Li Shixun and Hao Yaoqi were against each other. Because the opponent was not He Zhen, Li Shixun was careless. As soon as the war drum beat, he activated the army to attack the entire line. As a result, he saw Hao Yaoqi's soldiers also ran away while throwing copper coins, cloth and the kind of broken silver that was particularly difficult to find. Li Shixun said nothing. Before the Ming army could attack him from the flank, he ran away with his personal guards.

This third battle was the one that He Zhen knew. Hao Yaoqi once expressed his gratitude to He Zhen afterwards, and repeatedly praised the use of this trick to deal with Li Shixun. In the past, Li Shixun had the support of Hu Quancai, and his troops and equipment were superior, so he defeated He Zhen and Hao Yaoqi many times. This time, they finally avenged a revenge.

Last year, Hao Yaoqi's soldiers were sent to Xiangyang, and the enemy was narrow, and Li Shixun collided with him again. Youdao was an enemy who met, and was very jealous. Seeing that Hao Yaoqi had not many soldiers, Li Shixun was about to pounce on him to take revenge, but then he thought about it, he was worried that the other party would try to lure the enemy. Hao Yaoqi and He Zhen had used this trick three times. Li Shixun thought that if a person's intelligence was not inferior to that of a monkey, he should not use the strategy he had used three times. In fact, don't talk about monkeys, according to Li Shixun's experience, it may be that the basket used to catch toads can be used again and again, but the same toad cannot be used infinitely.

But be careful to sail the ten thousand-year-old ship. In the end, Li Shixun did not launch a general attack, but instead asked a small number of armored soldiers to launch an attack with auxiliary soldiers. If Hao Yaoqi fought seriously, the first round of offensive of the Qing army would definitely be repelled, and would suffer a considerable loss of manpower and morale. However, the facts proved that Li Shixun's caution defeated Hao Yaoqi's treacherous plan, and the other party indeed threw down the copper coins, fabrics and broken silver and ran away.

That time, when Hao Yaoqi's main force came out from the side, he hit Li Shixun's main force in armor. He had suffered three losses, and Li Shixun's eyes were so angry that he obviously did not expect that Hao Yaoqi was soon repelled by the Qing army. Li Shixun personally led the army to rush, chasing behind the Ming army, and swearing to chop Hao Yaoqi into meat sauce and feed the dogs.

Unexpectedly, the main force that Hao Yaoqi used to attack sideways was carrying copper coins, fabrics and the kind of damn broken silver on his body. It was actually a trick to lure the enemy by the Qing army. "Hao thief is ruthless!" After the entire army lost control, Li Shixun cursed and fled again. This was his fourth time to be defeated by such a ghost domain trick. Li Shixun vowed that this would be the last time.

Last time, Hao Yaoqi was finally repelled from Xiangyang. He was not in the mood to show off the enhanced version of the enemy-tempting strategy to He Zhen. So today He Zhen didn't know that he and the hero Hao Yaoqi had a similar view, so he made the same improvements to this strategy.

"Why did Li Thief become a virgin?" He Zhen waited for a long time, but still couldn't wait for the Qing army's full attack. He became more and more anxious. The archers he placed in front were covered with copper coins and broken silver, just for the situation in front of him. As long as the Qing army attacked, they could create chaos again.

Opposite He Zhen, other Qing generals and generals were equally anxious and shouted at Li Shixun that if they did not attack, the enemy would run away.

But Li Shixun was extremely calm and analyzed calmly: "The opposite side is either Hao Yaoqi or He Zhen. I will probably think He Zhen has a big face."

Last time Hao Yaoqi's main attack was blocked, and when he was defeated and lured him to pursue him, the scene was much more realistic than today. Li Shixun felt that it was not like Hao Yaoqi, but He Zhen. If it were Hao Yaoqi, there would probably be some new tricks; but Li Shixun also knew that Hao Yaoqi despised him very much, and maybe he would do it again intact, hoping that he would be fooled again, which is also the reason why he did not dare to be 100% sure of the identity of the enemy general.

"I know very well that He Zhen is a thief. He is just a wild dog. When he sees the opportunity to take advantage of the money, he will be the first to rush up like smelling blood. But if he suffers a loss, he will never be able to do so." Li Shixun said, while carefully observing the movements of Mingjun. The intention of betraying the opponent was too obvious. Li Shixun did not continue to say anything because he was so angry, his lips and arms were trembling. Li Shixun bit his lips tightly and tried his best to control his emotions. He knew that if he spoke now, he would probably not be able to control his tone. Well, even if you think I am a toad, you will still let you know the power of toad today! Let you know that toads are not easy to mess with!"

He swears in his heart angrily that after a long time, he can finally speak in a normal tone. Li Shixun continued to explain his ideas to his subordinates: "He Zhen has thrown away so many copper coins, and the fabrics and silver are broken. If it were someone else, if we saw that we didn't fall into the trap, they might leave, but He Zhen won't. He wouldn't be willing to leave if he didn't snatch the things back. As long as we don't move like a mountain, He thief will definitely launch an attack again."

Li Shixun's attention is now mainly focused on the flanks. According to his experience, when there is a large amount of property on the ground, the Qing army will certainly have serious chaos, but problems will arise with the Ming army. Most of the people responsible for throwing silver are auxiliary soldiers who lure the enemy. In order to save their lives, they will run desperately and throw them desperately. But if the main force of the Ming army turns around and fight back along this road, the Ming army soldiers will not be able to help pick them up.

"If the enemy does not attack, we will call them back to attack after we pick them up." Li Shixun is now leaning against Hanshui and rushing to the east. He is too lazy to take a look at the battlefield in the north, but just casually stretches his arms and points to that direction: "If He Thief continues to throw it, we will continue to pick it up. I want to see if he throws it away!"

After waiting for almost a stick of incense for so long, suddenly the sound of the Ming army's war drums sounded from the east, and a large number of armored soldiers came back. This time, their formation became very strict, with swords, shields, spears, hammers and axes, and all the troops, and the formation was in order, and they lined up layer by layer. Soon the drum sound became more urgent, and the Ming army on the entire front advanced together and rushed towards the Qing army.

After seeing the real strength of the Ming army, the other generals and masters were a little shocked. The momentum of the other party was completely different from the momentum just now, and it was just two armies. If they had known that the Ming army was so neat, the generals and masters who were clamoring to pursue would never act rashly. Now the generals and masters of the Qing army put away their contempt for the Ming army and focused their minds to fight. They admired Li Shixun so much that they were overwhelmed.

The rain of arrows thrown by the Qing army could no longer slow down the Ming army's pace at all. The opponent's archers were also constantly fighting back to interfere with the Qing army's long-range projection weapons. Soon the Ming army walked to the front of the Qing army and saw that a large number of Qing soldiers in the front row had already laid a flat spear to resist the enemy, the front row of the Ming army's pike soldiers suddenly moved away and rushed out of their backs. At this time, they all carried their shields behind them, held the javelin in their hands, and flashed to the back of the front row.

With the momentum of rushing out, these sword and shield soldiers threw the javelin in their hands into the clearing formation not far away. While throwing, they shouted: "Central!"

Countless javelins passed by. Before the Qing army could raise their shields, the group of javelins penetrated into the Qing army's positions. The Qing soldiers in the front row were cut down in a row. The people who were shot in the head and chest fell to the ground without saying a word. The soldiers who were injured in the abdomen and legs were not allowed to die for a moment, and they made miserable calls in the pool of blood.

"middle!"

"middle!"

In addition to the javelin in his right hand, each Ming sabre shield soldier rushed out held two other hands. After throwing the first one, they immediately took the second one and then threw the third one.

The tactics and equipment of the two armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties were very similar. Before the elite sword and shield soldiers charged towards the opponent's spear, they would always use three javelins to open the way. When throwing guns, it was also the most dangerous time for these elite soldiers. They carried their shields behind them, and the swords were still in the sheath. Whether they were archers or the spearmen who rushed up, they would pose a great threat to them. There were also other counter-tactic tactics, such as when the opponent would also let the back row of soldiers counter-tenders to suppress and kill these elite pitchers when the sword and shield soldiers threw guns.

Whether it is bows and arrows, counterattacks or guns, there is only one way to solve all threats, which is to complete this tactical action as soon as possible so that you can get the shield again. The guns, swords and shield soldiers who He Zhen chose to launch a rush are all elite soldiers under his command. They all know that the faster the three shots are completed, the greater the damage they can cause to the enemy and safer themselves.

During the second round, the Qing soldiers had already raised their shields, so the second round of the enemy soldiers was less than the previous time. When they heard the shouts made by the pitchers during this round, all the soldiers of the Ming army shouted in unison and charged forward. As their companions rushed over, the pitchers made their final blow.

He Zhen was reluctant to consume the most elite soldiers in his hand, so his usual tactics were not to use these elite sword and shield soldiers as the lead to attack the enemy formation after three shots, but to launch a full-army assault at the same time as the second shot, and the third shot was just enough to carry out the final suppression. When the enemy set up a shield to resist the last shot, the Ming army had already reached the sight.

The third shot was made, and the elite sword and shield soldiers immediately pulled out their weapons and rushed forward after following their companions. Once they tore open the enemy's front, they would cut into the enemy's front and reap their lives.

In other directions, some Qing generals made counterattacks, and some launched counterattacks when throwing. Only the Qing soldiers in the middle did not have any counterattacks except for the vertical shields.

The Qing army on this section of the position was Li Shixun's personal military camp.

The front row of swords and shield soldiers half kneeled behind the shield and supported the Ming army's third shot. At this time, the front row of spearmen in the Ming army had rushed to the front. As the javelin hit the shield surface and then slid down to the ground helplessly, the tip of the Ming army's spear in the front seemed to have touched the shield surface.

These shield soldiers did not get up to fight, but remained half-squat, when the front row of soldiers in the Ming army were about to raise their guns and stab them down from the top of their heads...

"Squat down!" The officers from the Qing army's personal barracks shouted loudly.

Not only did the soldiers in the front row not stand up, but their companions squatted down two rows, exposing the personal soldiers behind them.

These personal soldiers were Li Shixun's sword and shield pitchers. While the officers were calling the order, they swung their arms together, threw the javelin and axe horizontally forward, and shot out from the Qing army's positions against the heads of the front row of soldiers and the edges of the shield.

The Ming army was already very close when they threw the gun just now, and the distance between the Qing army's axe and the javelin was only a few people. This throwing caused an amazing killing effect, almost sweeping away the soldiers in the front row of the Ming army.

After feeling the weapon pass by his scalp with the sound of wind, the soldiers of Li Shixun's personal military camp immediately stepped up. The Ming army opposite had just received a blow, and hesitated for a moment. If he could seize the fleeting opportunity, he could overwhelm the other party from his momentum.

Like the Ming army, Li Shixun's sword and shield elite soldiers also carried three javelins or three flying axes. Now the soldiers in front of them have stood up. Of course, they will not continue to shoot horizontally, but will quickly shoot twice upwards. After passing the front row companions and throwing the javelins and axes out, these Qing army pitchers also pulled out the sword and axes, took off their shields and rushed forward.

At this time, the front lines of the two armies had just collided, and the dense spears were either entangled or inserted into the human body before they had time to pull them out. This was a rare time for the sword and shield soldiers to attack. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Qing sabre and shield soldiers roared and flew up, leaping over countless gun rods and slashing towards the enemy.

When these Qing soldiers attempted to pounce across the front line, sword lights flashed in front of their eyes. This was He Zhen's sword and shield vanguard. Like the Qing army's peers, they failed to take advantage of the first collision of the front line to rush over and massacre the opponent's spear soldiers, but their timely appearance protected their own front line. The sword and shield soldiers of both sides were close to each other, and the front lines of the two armies pushed each other, and soon formed a scene of staggering teeth.

Li Shixun looked at the fierce battle in front of him with all his attention. The long front line was full of people. In some places, the Ming army was forcing the Qing army to retreat, while in some places, the Qing soldiers defeated the Ming army to retreat. The front line twisted rapidly like a snake, and the sky was filled with axes and javelins. They kept flying through the air and crossed the front line and fell into the opponent's formation...
