More than 10,000 troops were walking on the road to the north of Qingshan Town.
In the fields, their helmets were crooked and their flags were curled up.
They were as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog.
If it weren’t for the uniforms worn by the soldiers and the weapons held by a few of them, there would be nothing they could do.
Determine whether they are refugees fleeing famine or the army.
In fact, most of these people used to be refugees, but they just picked up weapons and turned into an army.
All the soldiers of the Western Army have experienced defeat many times.
Sometimes, they will run away like this.
But now they are really scared to escape.
Many soldiers dropped their weapons and took off their armor in order to escape faster.
Under the crazy attack of the Ming army, 30,000 soldiers were able to escape from the water stronghold alive and escape the pursuit of the Ming army.
Less than half.
After a crushing defeat, when an army loses all morale, it will not dare to resist no matter how weak the enemy is, and all it can do is run away.
Zhang Wenxiu walked at the front of the team with a serious look on his face.
Only more than a hundred of the original 3,000 elite guard battalions around him were left.
Most of the others died when they went out to attack the Ming army fleet.
She started rebelling with Zhang Xianzhong when she was ten years old.
Over the past ten years, Zhang Wenxiu has experienced countless such scenes.
She has been defeated and chased to the sky and to the ground by the army countless times.
This failure is nothing.
What really frightened Zhang Wenxiu was the Ming army’s unparalleled firearms Hundreds of red-coated cannons fired simultaneously, which was powerful enough to tear apart mountains and split rocks.
Who has ever seen such a scene, not to mention the covering fire of hundreds of other artillery pieces and rockets and muskets.
The entire battlefield and the entire camp were covered by Ming army firearms.
Completely covered, all of his men were already dead and injured before a close encounter.
Who can muster the courage to resist at this time?
In the torrent of cannonballs and lead pellets, no matter how brave the warrior is, he is just a body of flesh and blood.
The armor on his body cannot provide much protection.
The battle is no longer won by whoever fights bravely.
After all, swords, guns, bows and arrows are far away.
Can't compete with large-scale firearms Zhang Wenxiu realized that the Ming army in front of him was completely different from the others.
Perhaps from now on, the battle would enter another mode.
The battle would be about whose firearms were more powerful, rather than whether the number of soldiers dared to fight or feared death.
It turns out that this is the army of Chen Yue, Duke of Qi in the Ming Dynasty.
It turns out that Chen Yue’s past achievements are all true.
At this moment, Zhang Wenxiu's heart was full of frustration, because he didn't know how to face this situation.
If he met Chen Yue's army again, how would he fight and win?
The general was extremely frustrated, and the soldiers who fled were even more dejected.
Too many comrades and too many relatives died in the battle, but they were thankful that they were alive.
After fighting for half a morning, they fled from the water village in a hurry.
They didn't have time to take anything with them.
It was already past noon and everyone was hungry, but they didn't dare to stop because they were afraid of being exposed.
The tail catches up.
However, what are you afraid of?
Before the Ming army behind them could catch up, the way forward was blocked.
Li Yi led the Ming army by boat across the lake mouth at dawn and arrived at the west bank of Poyang Lake.

After more than an hour of marching, they moved to the scheduled battlefield, from Qingshan Town to the official road of Jiujiang City, and then buried pots to cook rice and rested After a while, the Western thieves were defeated and it was belatedly.
Li Yi had 1,000 elite Dongfan troops and 10,000 soldiers from the Beijing camp allocated to him by Chen Yue.
The soldiers of the Beijing camp were not very effective in combat, but most of the elite Qiandong Fan Army were composed of veterans who had been following Chen Yue and a few Zhoushan fishermen.
The soldiers of the first battalion were equipped with two Fo Lang machines and thirty-six Tiger Crouching Cannons. , there are still 600 muskets captured from the Dutch, and the remaining three to four hundred are artillery, shield, and spearmen.
It is already a force mainly composed of hot weapons.
With these 1,000 elites as the core, plus 10,000 Beijing camp auxiliaries, and the Beijing camp soldiers have been strengthened by battlefield discipline, there is a special supervising team composed of soldiers from the Zhenfu Division, who know that anyone who fails to flee before the battle will be severely punished.
Such an army would naturally have no problem dealing with a defeated army of more than 10,000 thieves.
However, Li Yi did not order an active attack on the soldiers who had escaped from a distance.
Instead, he ordered his men to form a formation and block the rebel army's road to Jiujiang.
All the Tiger Crouching artillery guns have been loaded, and they are waiting for the rebels to enter the range before launching an attack.
Seeing the Ming army suddenly appearing in the distance, the fleeing soldiers suddenly stopped and looked at each other.
Zhang Wenxiu's heart was filled with despair.
The fact that the Ming army suddenly appeared here shows that they have already been included in the opponent's plan.
In front are tens of thousands of enemy troops who are waiting in full formation, and on our side are more than 10,000 defeated soldiers who are unable to escape into formation.
Can they break through the Ming army's obstruction and return to Jiujiang?
"General Funan, the pursuers have reached three miles behind."
Just when Zhang Wenxiu hesitated, one of his men hurriedly reported that the pursuers from Qingshan Town had reached three miles behind.
There are chasing troops behind and powerful enemies in front.
For the more than 10,000 Western troops who were defeated, it was the end of the road.
However, this situation aroused the ferocity in Zhang Wenxiu's bones, making his eyes turn red.
When he was a boy, he suffered a famine and his whole family starved to death.
Fortunately, he survived at the age of ten thanks to Zhang Xianzhong's adoption.
The arduous battles of 16 and 17 years, from Shaanxi to Shanxi and Henan, from South Zhili to Jiangxi, Huguang and Sichuan, followed for more than ten years.
Following in the footsteps of his adoptive father Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Wenxiu traveled to most of the Ming Dynasty, just to find a way to survive and to overthrow the corrupt rule of the Ming Dynasty government.
Today I have reached a dead end again, so let me fight this last battle again, and die to repay the kindness of my foster father for more than ten years of upbringing.
With a "clang" sound, Zhang Wenxiu pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed his sword forward: "Brothers, follow me and fight your way out.
Fight with the dog officers and soldiers.
As long as we break out of the interception of the officers and soldiers in front, we can reach Jiujiang City safely."
"Fight with the dog officers and soldiers."
The more than a hundred personal guards around him also raised their weapons, trying to follow the general's footsteps.
"Fight with the dog officers and soldiers!"
More and more defeated soldiers of the Western Army launched a desperate cry Instead of surrendering and waiting to die, it is better to rise up and give it a try.
As long as you can break out of the interception of the array of officers and soldiers in front, you will have a brighter future.
Under the leadership of Zhang Wenxiu, the more than 10,000 defeated Western troops mustered up their last courage and charged towards the Ming army array ahead.
What he got in exchange was a sneer from Li Yi.
"A worm can shake a tree without overestimating its own capabilities."
Li Yi raised his arm high, and when the rebels entered the range of the Crouching Tiger Cannon, he swung it down hard.
"Boom, boom, boom" thirty-six squatting tiger cannons were fired one after another, and countless projectiles were like death's scythes, rushing toward the oncoming bandit army.
Zhang Wenxiu, who was charging at the front, felt his body shake, as if he was being stung by countless wasps.
His heart was broken and his bones were broken.
All the strength in his body suddenly disappeared.
He knelt on the ground with difficulty.
When he looked down, he saw himself.
There were more than ten holes in the body, and bright red water flowed out from the holes
