The sudden landing of the Ming army on Jiang Shang greatly shook the Qing army's will to fight, and the Qing soldiers who had suffered too much loss in the **** battle with the Taiping army were not able to carry it to the last moment. Although the Taiping army in the encirclement was exhausted, the Qing soldiers had no intention of fighting the Taiping army to the end. Qin Guocheng, the commander of the battle, chose to retreat. He was not sure to end the battle with the rest of the Taiping Army before the arrival of the Ming army reinforcements, and then integrate his forces to deal with the attack of the Ming army navy.

Qin Guocheng's Goshha was ordered to convey the retreat order to the Qing troops everywhere. Soon, the Han army flag soldiers and their own soldiers who received the retreat order began to retreat, but the Qing army's retreat was not a disorderly retreat, but a rush. Orderly retreat, each department can also echo each other. The rest of the Shang family's soldiers insisted on waiting until the flag soldiers had retreated a mile before they began to turn around.

"The clear demon is defeated, the clear demon is defeated!"

After discovering that the Qing army had withdrawn, the Taiping army, who had survived the death, burst into cheers. The first to cheer were the soldiers in the ranks who were descending from the original Han flag. They spoke Liaodong dialect and waved their swords and spears there, jumping for joy. endlessly.

"Kill!"

Shao Jiugong shouted excitedly, and without waiting for Zhou Shixiang's order, he waved his sword and rushed up with his Jiangxi soldiers, intending to chase and kill the fleeing Qing soldiers. Beating the drowning dog is a very pleasant and light work, without effort or fear, just follow behind and chop.

However, after leading his troops to chase after 100 steps, Shao Jiugong stopped because he found that although the Qing army on the opposite side was defeated, it was impossible for him to take advantage of the situation to cover up the past. Furthermore, only a hundred Taiping troops followed him, and the brigade did not move. With this strength, it is obviously impossible to chase and kill the Qing army, which is nearly ten times stronger than them.

"Hurry up and wave the flag, and let thousands of households lead the brigade to catch up!"

Shao Jiugong was so excited that he let the personal soldiers shake the flag of Xiongwei Camp. However, he did not get an immediate response from Zhou Shixiang, but saw fires from the north.

The place where the fire started was the camp where the Qing army detained the young men and women. Under the black smoke, someone could be seen shouting with a wooden stick.

The Qing army, who was retreating, also found the fire in the north, but did not show a look of surprise, but only fled to the east.

Zhou Shixiang ignored Shao Jiugong's request to chase down the Qing soldiers. It's not that he doesn't want to take advantage of the situation to kill. However, there were thousands of infantrymen and two or three hundred cavalry soldiers of the Qing army who had withdrawn to the east, but he could mobilize only less than 500 remnants. If it is easy to pursue, it is an accident. This strength is likely to be swallowed up by the Qing army who retreated eastward.

"The order goes on, without my order, the ministries can't pursue the Qing Yao!"

Zhou Shixiang's order was approved by Qin Zhisheng. He was not overwhelmed by the retreat of the Qing soldiers, but remained awake enough. Otherwise, when Shao Jiugong led someone to chase him out, he would have followed him long ago.

......

Chen Qice brought ashore all the soldiers in his navy who could go ashore. There were more than 4,000 soldiers in total. In addition, the rest of the Taiping army led by Ge Yi had more than 300 soldiers. After jointly defeating the green camp of the Qing army stationed along the river, the two armies joined forces to support the battlefield on the east front. Along the way, a team of soldiers who were trapped in the camp and hundreds of healthy women sent by Duke Xiang of Song in the city joined. Several times as many as the Qing army.

With such a huge force joining the battlefield, the Qing army, who had been struggling with the Taiping army, had to retreat.

"Pass on this general's order, all the armies fight bravely to kill the enemy, and kill the Tartars together with the brothers of the Taiping Army!"

General Ling Hai Chen Qice was in high spirits. He sent orders one after another, and ordered Wu Yuan, the commander-in-chief of Qianhai, to say: "General Wu, you lead your troops to hunt down and kill the fleeing Tartars on the northern front, and then reunite with the brigade after the enemies in the north are cleared! Remember, if the Tartars run far away, Let them go, don't go after them alone!"

"Follow the order!"

Wu Yuan loudly agreed, and led a part of the brigade to the north.

After giving the order, Chen Qice glanced at his aide, the former magistrate of Taishan, Hu Deyu: "This arrangement. Does Zixuan think it is appropriate?"

"It's more appropriate for the general to make this arrangement." Hu Deyu nodded slightly, raised his hand and pointed forward: "The Tartars have cavalry, although friendly forces drag them down. They are forced to retreat, but our army still cannot be blind. Chase and kill to avoid the Tartars jumping over the wall and fighting me desperately. Although our army is on the verge of a great victory, our soldiers are better at water warfare than land combat. If we really want to fight the Tartars in the wild, it may not last long.”

"It's exactly what Zixuan said."

Chen Qice waved his hand and smiled, and waved his hand to the generals under his command: "Several generals are going to fight, and the Tartars must be completely driven away, so that they will no longer have the heart to spy on Xinhui."

"Yes, General"

General Zhou Sheng and others hurriedly clasped their fists and went away, and soon, the officers and soldiers of the navy who landed concentrated their main force to kill to the east.

......

When the navy Ming army, armed with big swords and spears, chased down fearlessly, the Qing army that fled north collapsed. In addition to some guard soldiers of the former Guangdong Ming Army, most of the soldiers who participated in Linghai General Chen Qice's naval division were Guangdong fishermen who had a feud with the Qing army. In the past few years, under the suppression of the Qing army in Guangdong, the officers and soldiers of the navy had no choice but to retreat from the island. Now they have the opportunity to land again and fight the Qing army again. The hatred that had been suppressed in the heart of the navy for a long time suddenly broke out, and they bravely rushed forward to the fleeing Qing army. past.

"Kill Tartars, kill Tartars, and avenge our relatives!"

The shouts resounded through the sky~www.NovelMTL.com~ The thousands of Qing troops who fled on the northern front did not have the courage to turn around and stop the navy. Soon, the Qing army was overtaken by the officers and soldiers of the navy led by Wu Yuan. After some slashing and killing, the Qing army piled hundreds of corpses, and more than a thousand descended.

"Don't run, don't run!"

Wang Shiqing, who had just escaped from the riverside, scolded and waved the whip in his hand, and kept beating the defeated soldiers who retreated. His personal soldiers were also trying their best to stop the defeated soldiers, but they stopped this group, but they couldn't stop the other group. , when he saw that the Ming army was rushing towards him, Wang Shiqing also understood that he could not stop the Ming army.

The defeat was like a mountain, and the collapse of the Qing army on the northern front caused by the first fleeing of the yellow flag soldiers and the governor's pacesmen finally paid for the consequences. Gotta be like a rabbit. On the ground for several miles, there was chaos everywhere. There were Qing soldiers who were kneeling and surrendering. There were not many Qing soldiers who had the courage to resist the Ming army.

The Yellow Banner soldiers and the Governor Biao had the advantage of running first. By the time the battalion soldiers behind were basically beheaded by the Ming army, they had already run a few miles away. Seeing this, I remembered that Wu Yuan, who was instructed by the old general, stopped chasing him, and hurriedly divided a force to guard the prisoners, and then led the rest of the troops to the east to kill them. To be continued.
