    "Oh, Wang Shangli ran away!" Tan Xiao jumped up on a big stone, shielded the sun with his hands and looked at the top of the mountain. On the top of the mountain, Wang Shangli's flag had disappeared, and two fireworks of unknown meaning flew into the air.  "His grandma, Wang Shangli is indeed an old fox, I made a miscalculation again!" Tan Xiao was so angry that he cursed. He had fought Wang Shangli several times today, and every time he felt awkward. He would either suffer a small loss or be controlled by others. If not  The troops are more powerful and may actually lose the battle.  At the beginning, Tan Xiao wanted to get behind Wang Shangli and separate him from Liu Wenxiu, but he met Wang Shangli's main force in a confused manner and failed to realize his strategic intention. After a chaotic battle, although Wang Shangli  The losses were considerable, and Tan Xiao also found it very difficult. After all, Wang Shangli had more troops than him, and he regained the situation bit by bit.  What made Tan Xiao the most angry was that he had already killed two thousand Western troops behind the mountain on the south side, but Wang Shangli broke through the siege at the last moment and rescued Zhang Wu who was about to be captured. This turned a perfect victory into a new one.  Tan Xiao felt a great sense of frustration when he got off to an anticlimactic conclusion.  After gathering his mood, he set up an ambush behind the mountain on the north side, preparing to encircle Wang Shangli for reinforcements. Seeing that Wang Shangli had already rushed down the hillside, he suddenly ran away and sent only a poorly organized troop to continue the attack. Tan Xiao  A closer look revealed that the opponent's general was none other than Zhou Wuding, who had deceived him once before, and now he was coming with more than a thousand old, weak and remnant soldiers in an aggressive manner. It was an insult to his own IQ!  "Wang Shangli must have wanted to run away a long time ago. You have deceived me so hard." Tan Xiao had to admit that compared with Wang Shangli, a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, his ability to command operations is still obviously inferior. The other party may  He had long seen through his intentions. He knew that he was going to surround the area for reinforcements, but he deliberately used his plan to kill him. He shot him down the mountain with a feint, then turned around and left. However, Tan Xiao thought that the plan was successful, so he placed thousands of his main forces behind the mountain, and he was on the other side of the mountain.  A gap is exposed on one side.  "Brothers, chase me! Don't let Wang Shangli get away!" Although he was hit hard, Tan Xiao was very nervous and had long accepted that he was a second-rate general. Although he fell into Wang Shangli's "trick", he still  Not discouraged, he immediately led his troops to pursue him from behind.  Someone among the generals on the left and right asked: "General Tan, Zhou Wuding is coming. Should you stabilize your position first and defeat him before chasing Wang Li?" Tan Xiao waved his head: "This guy Zhou Wuding is just a good guy, no need to  Fei Jian wasted all his energy on him and just drove him away." Having learned a lesson, General Tan was no longer disturbed by Zhou Wuding, and led thousands of tiger and wolf soldiers to charge up the hillside aggressively. Zhou Wuding collapsed at the first touch.  He turned around and ran faster than Tan Xiao.  Panting, Tan Xiao climbed to the top of the mountain, raised his eyes and looked into the distance. He suddenly laughed and cursed: "Wang Shangli, Wang Shangli, even if you are a rabbit, don't even think about taking advantage of me. Hehe, Chen Youlong is so good."  Yes, Bian Xiang is doing well, the Zhenyu soldiers and the Ningzhou soldiers are both good!¡± The official road in the distance rises with the mountains. Wang Shangli leads the main force of the Western Army, which is several thousand in number, but the Zhenyu soldiers and Ningzhou soldiers are retreating.  The state soldiers bit them tightly, forcing Wang Shangli to stop and fight them repeatedly.  Although Wang Shangli knew that the situation was not good, he felt that he had not yet reached the point of fleeing. Since he was bitten by the Zhenyu soldiers and Ningzhou soldiers, running away would lead to a rout, so he turned around to fight again and again, forcing the Chu army to attack.  They retreated a little and then continued to retreat. Chen Youlong and Bian Xiang fought very patiently. When the enemy retreated, we advanced. When the enemy ran, we pursued. When the enemy stopped and wanted to fight, they retreated in a dignified manner and did not give Wang Shangli a chance to fight. They walked like this  Stopping and stopping, Wang Shangli didn't go far for quite a while.  The speed of the Chu fleet was much faster than that of Wang Shangli.  Tan Xiao didn¡¯t see them until they were almost there.  Wang Shangli was still moving back bit by bit, but the Chu fleet was already approaching Liu Wenxiu's central army.   Although Liu Tichun was the commander-in-chief of the first army, the one who stayed in the rear and directly commanded the musketeers to attack was Wang Yi, the division commander of the musketeers. In addition, there were a group of middle and low-level officers who connected the previous and the following to form a complete set of  Zhu Huagui and Da Guniu are both in the command system.  These three thousand musketeers are elites selected from tens of thousands of people. Zhu Huagui and Da Guniu are now senior musketeer officers. After being transferred to the Western Expeditionary Army, they were demoted and became company commanders and platoon leaders respectively.  , even so, they still regarded being selected into the Western Expeditionary Army as a great honor. Wang Kefan once personally taught that the Western Expeditionary Army is the first strategic force of the Chu army to focus on offensive. It must not only advance thousands of miles into Guizhou, but also sweep across the southwest and conquer the world.  , becoming the vanguard and model for the entire army.  The marching drums are lively and impassioned, and the two thousand muskets areTo the beat of drums, they pushed towards the Western Army at a neat pace. Although they were not wearing armor, or were only wearing thin light armor and leather armor, and they were also wearing simple straw sandals under their feet, they walked and moved with an aura of looking down on the world, just looking at the world.  From the description of those soldiers, you can tell that they are looking at the Western Army opposite them with their chins raised. Just like a butcher who sees pigs and sheep, he will naturally look for a suitable place to cut. Their eyes are only fixed on the Western Army.  However, he ignored the weapons in the hands of the Western Army - pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, could they still hurt people?  Even though they were far away, Liu Wenxiu could still feel this murderous aura keenly.  On the contrary, the scholars and masters did not feel anything and were still cheering loudly for the Western Army. Due to the terrain, the Chu Army's musketeers were forced to divide a thousand troops to defend the official road and their own rear lines. Only the troops that went into the attack were  Two thousand people, this made the scribes even more optimistic. They cited scriptures one by one and used various military famous sayings to prove that the Chu army must be defeated and the Western army must win.  Liu Wenxiu finally couldn't bear it any longer. With a wave of his hand, all the noise behind him disappeared.  "Outflank, hurry up and outflank the two wings!" After the Chu army began to attack, Qi Sansheng also adjusted his deployment accordingly. Taking advantage of his strength, he sent two troops to outflank the Chu army, forming a U-shaped pincer attack on the Chu army. Facing the world-famous  He did not dare to hold back the Chu army's musketeers, so he sent all 6,000 armored soldiers. At the same time, 500 cavalry were also ready for battle. They mounted their horses and raised their swords, ready to charge at any time.  "All of you, stand still!" The drums stopped suddenly, and the officers' command sounded. The soldiers of the Chu army stopped and rotated the direction of the queue to form an N-shaped combat formation, facing the Western Army tit for tat.  ¡°Everyone is here, raise your guns!¡± Wow~!  Two thousand people raised their guns at the same time, but there was only one voice.  The murderous intent became stronger, Liu Wenxiu's heart trembled slightly, and suddenly he heard the sound of drums and trumpets behind Qi Sansheng. The Western Army had already launched an attack first - the Chu Army's flintlock guns had a too far range, and the Western Army's archers were not enough.  Without them, if the opponent was allowed to fire from this distance, the Western Army would only be beaten and could not fight back, so they attacked at the last moment.  "Kill!" "Kill!!!" The Western Army had been preparing for a long time, and suddenly launched a charge, like a flood that broke a bank, it was unstoppable.  In order to restrain the Chu army's musketeers, the generals of the Western Army thought of many ways, and finally came to the conclusion that they must invest enough troops at once, charge at full speed, rush through the enemy's fire blockade area as soon as possible, and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Chu army's musketeers.  In this process, there is no need to fight in formation. The formation should be as loose as possible, but sufficient thickness must be ensured to maintain the continuity of the attack.  This is what Qi Sansheng did today. He put 6,000 armored soldiers into the battle at once, outflanking the left and right at the same time, and spreading out the troops as much as possible. The distance between the soldiers was very loose, but there were more than ten rows stacked on top of each other If  In a hand-to-hand battle where the enemy was well prepared, such an offensive formation had no impact and basically sent the soldiers to death. However, the Chu army's musketeers had neither armor nor suitable cold weapons, and the formation was very thin. Qi  Sansheng believed that as long as his armored soldiers rushed forward, he could easily win a chaotic battle.  Yes, Qi Sansheng also admitted that since the Chu Army's musketeers took shape, especially after they were equipped with new flintlock guns, few people could break through their fire blockade, forcing the Chu Army's musketeers to engage in hand-to-hand combat, so that the Chu Army  The Musketeers have the myth of being invincible, but Qi Sansheng is fully confident today that this specially prepared tactic will definitely be a success.  Myths are meant to be broken.  "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" Qi Sansheng urged his horse forward, brandishing his horse sword to personally supervise the battle.  He knew clearly that the Chu army's musketeers were indeed very powerful. During the charge, his six thousand armored soldiers would probably suffer many casualties, but as long as they were not afraid of sacrifice and moved forward bravely, the final victory would definitely belong to the Western Army.  "Qi Sansheng is very smart. He actually knows how to charge with skirmishers." Seeing the menacing attack of the Western Army, Liu Tichun's palms became slightly wet, feeling a little excited and a little nervous.  There are also many musketeers in his army, but they have not yet changed to flintlock muskets. They are equipped with improved muskets produced by the Chu Army Arsenal. If they encounter the current situation in actual combat, they will definitely be in a hard fight, and it is very likely that  A big loss.  "General Erhu, don't worry, our army will win." A staff officer who graduated from a military academy said with confidence: "Wang Junmen once said that musketeers equipped with flintlock rifles are the most powerful army in the world.  When the army encounters them in the field, if there is no strength of ten to one, the only correct tactic is one word: retreat, retreat immediately! " "Isn't that the same word?" Liu Tichun smiled.The staff officer also smiled and opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by the deafening sound of gunfire.  "Fire!" Following the officer's order, Zhu Huagui, who was standing at the head of the team, waved his saber vigorously. Twenty steps away, the big bull who had been staring at him waved his saber almost at the same time and gave the order to fire to the soldiers. His men  Thirty soldiers in a platoon pulled the triggers at the same time, and the muzzles of their guns jumped upwards. The large clouds of fire and smoke pushed lead bullets out of the gun barrels at a speed that could not be caught by the naked eye, and shot towards the Western Army on the opposite side.  .
