Chapter 63 Breaking the Encirclement VI

The right-wing troops of the Qing army facing Nantang Camp have completely collapsed. Even if Ma Jinbao, as the head coach, sent all the reserves in his hands, could not curb the trend of collapse. Only a very small number of officers were still leading their soldiers to make the final resistance in the torrent of fleeing west, but under the attack of Nantang Camp, they were just a mantis arm to chariots.

The overall situation of the left wing of the Ming army was decided, and Lou Jiye did not hesitate to put the reorganized infantry teams into the right-wing battlefield that was almost collapsed.

Although Yiwu Camp has a bureau composed of veterans as the backbone of the base camp, most of the veterans in the first bureau of Nantang Camp participated in the Simingshan Palace Battle. In this year's military operation to enter Jinhua, Chen Wen also chose to accompany them. Moreover, the first bureau organization of Nantang Camp was the first-level bureau organization, and the officers were more proficient in how the killer teams and firearm teams in the infantry teams cooperated on the battlefield.

In contrast, most of the veterans in the Yiwu Camp were recruited on Tiantai Mountain and had little combat experience. The biggest advantage over the new recruits was that they had experienced more than half a year of training and fought against the Shaoxing Green Camp on the way to Jinhua. In terms of cohesion, compared with the new recruits formed by fellow townsmen and tribes as links, they were not limited to the inside of the team, but the gap was even greater between the various situations, sentry and infantry teams.

On the battlefield, the front between the Dubiao Camp and the Yiwu Camp was no longer as straight as before. The two sides fought together in an intertwined manner, but they restricted the opponent's attack with wolves and spears, just like two huge rocks rubbing slowly, squeezing some not-solid structures and falling off.

However, as the advantages of the military strength and equipment of the Super Biao Battalion were reflected, the connection between the killer teams of the Yiwu Battalion was about to be shattered. Some killer teams of the Yuanyang Formation who tried to break the formation with their own strength in the previous battles had already been suppressed by the Qing army and besieged by the Qing army because of their protruding position after launching the attack. Other teams could only support the Qing army's attack and shooting, and did not do their best to fight to break the formation as soon as possible.

At this moment, the 31st Infantry Team of Xinshou in the second game of Yiwu Camp was temporarily reorganized with other infantry teams damaged by shelling and were once again put into the front row of the battlefield.

In front of him was the Supervisor Battalion, but the soldiers who were supplemented by our team were not familiar to others. This not only made Chen Lan, as the captain, feel very uncomfortable, but also the original members of our team and the soldiers who were supplemented by our team felt very uncomfortable.

A moment ago, a Qing sabre and shield hand was swept down by the team's wolf hand, and Chen Lan commanded the team to rush forward, trying to use the Qing army as a breakthrough point to break some of the formation. However, the soldiers who were supplementing the incoming were not familiar with the offensive habits of the 31st Infantry Team and did not follow up in time. Although they killed the Qing army, the formation of the Qing army was immediately filled. On the contrary, Chen Lan and others were besieged by the Qing army because of their recklessness.

A little while ago, the entire Yuanyang formation killer team was besieged by the Qing army from three sides, and only the firearms team behind them were striving to shoot from the gap. However, for the Qing army in armor, the Ming army archers' shooting often only added some decorations to their armor, or brought some pain and not very deep wounds, and the actual damage was very limited.

The hand beside him struggled to hold a Qing sabre that was cut off by the shield soldier in the face. Chen Lan shouted loudly and straightened the flag gun and stabbed the Qing army in the abdomen.

The flag gun was stabbed smoothly on the Qing army. Although the armor eliminated a certain amount of force, the cloth armor had very low defense against the spear stab. Chen Lan's spear head still stabbed into the Qing army's abdomen as he wished.

The spear head twisted in Qing Jun's body with the force of his arms, and blood splattered out of the wound. The Qing Jun threw down the sword and shield in his hand with a hideous and painful face, and then held Chen Lan's flag gun, trying to pull it out of his body. However, before he could use force, blood had already flowed out of his mouth and nose, and he loosened his hands and fell to the ground.

With the gun being drawn in his hand, a cousin holding a long card on the other side and a distant nephew who used a long spear also successfully forced several Qing troops to retreat with the cooperation of the archers in the back row.

Taking advantage of this gap, Chen Lan quickly commanded the soldiers of our team to take a step or two to reduce the direction of attack. However, as soon as this entry and exit, one of the wolf wielders, two spearmen, and the rattan player who added in were all killed by the Qing army. If it weren't for not being able to advance, Wu Dengke ordered the killers of the Yuanyang Formation to be transformed into the third-level formation, the casualties might be even greater.

The formation is broken. Even if Chen Lan and Huo Bing play in the same place, they cannot restore the Yuanyang Formation to its original state. What's more, the weapons of those who died in the formation are mostly in areas occupied by the Qing army, and even if they want to replace them for a while, they cannot make it happen.

There were endless shouts of killing. Whether it was Chen Lan, his subordinates, or others near him, no one knew how long this battle would last, but everyone had no time to consider these things. The Super Biao Battalion kept pressing forward, trying to squeeze, separate the Yiwu Camp's military formation, and then achieve annihilation.

The gap in force was too large, and the proportion of armor was huge, even the Qing army's projectiles would occasionally cause some casualties, let alone bloody hand-to-hand combat. After Yiwu Camp suffered a certain amount of casualties, Wu Dengke began to gradually shrink the formation to the side close to Nantang Camp.

However, every step of retreat means that more soldiers were killed by the Qing army in the occupied area. The Yiwu camp gradually melted in the water like ice, and this would not melt little by little until the end like ice, but would soon collapse when the casualties reached a certain proportion, or if there was an emergency on the battlefield that was unfavorable to oneself.

The situation of Yiwu Camp became increasingly unfavorable. Although Wu Dengke waited for the reserve team of the game in Chen Wen's hands, he only delayed the time of defeat when he put them on the front line. With the help of Yiwu Camp, this trend could no longer be reversed.

Fortunately, while Wu Dengke and others came to reinforcements, they also received news that Nantang Camp successfully crushed the Qing army's spear formation in front of him. As long as they persisted for a while, the situation would naturally be reversed as Nantang Camp defeated the Qing army in front of him. But at this moment, the cavalry behind the Qing army finally moved, and the target was a blank area away from the Nantang Camp. The intention shown by the Qing army was very obvious, that was, they planned to defeat Yiwu Camp in one fell swoop, and use the defeated troops to disrupt the formation of Nantang Camp to achieve a turnaround.

A moment later, the cavalry behind the Ming army, led by Chen Wen, also rushed here. However, the cavalry of the Qing army was closer to the Yiwu camp, and coupled with the advantage of being the first to move, it happened to be a time difference.

When the Qing army's cavalry rushed to the front, they first approached and pulled their bows and cavalry from the side, and then attacked the broken Yuanyang formation. The Yiwu camp collapsed instantly when it was attacked by the cavalry. Driven by the Qing army's cavalry, other infantry teams that were already forming formations to meet the enemy...

A few hours later, Chen Wen led the main force of the Ming army to the Qing army camp outside Xiaoshun Town, preparing to continue to march to recover Jinhua Fucheng after resting the troops.

The battle of Xiaoshun Town in the afternoon ended in an unbelievable way for everyone. After driving away a section of defeated troops, the Qing army's cavalry quickly covered the re-contracted formation of the Super Biao Battalion. Before Chen Wen's cavalry arrived, they began to evacuate the battlefield, leaving only the inoperable wounded soldiers killed by the Ming army occupying the battlefield.

On the other side of the battlefield, Nantang Camp was about to collapse, and did not send all the troops to continue pursuing the Green Camp of the Four Mansions, but instead drew some of the troops out to support the Yiwu Camp. As a result, Ma Jinbao left most of the infantry and quickly broke away from contact with Nantang Camp and successfully escaped from the battlefield.

In the game, Chen Wen could not understand why the Super Biao Camp was so straightforward and gave up the opportunity to fight for life and death with Nantang Camp. However, in the eyes of Zhang Guoxun and other Qing generals, the battle was no longer necessary to continue until now.

During the Battle of Zhoushan, the Super Biao Battalion suffered minimal losses, and the amount of goods seized, robbed and distributed was extremely large. Both the officers and soldiers were already resentful about the fact that they came to Jinhua to wipe Ma Jinbao's butt at this time.

This time, the Green Camp soldiers of the Four Prefectures were defeated by the Ming army. They had already suffered a certain amount of casualties in the battle with Yiwu camp during this period, and soon they had to face Nantang camp alone. Not to mention the outcome, the damage must be a large number. Once the Super Biao camp was defeated by the Ming army, it may be that it would be more than just a broken prefecture like Jinhua, which was tragically massacred a few years ago and then robbed by Ma Jinbao for several years.

Of course, in addition to this, there are also Chen Jin's concerns about the Fujian war and some of the views of the generals of the Supervising Camp on Chen Wen and Zheng Chenggong.

Since May, Zheng Chenggong entered Zhangzhou and thought that the local Qing army would be able to defeat it soon. But who knew that Zheng Chenggong not only defeated the local Qing army in succession, but even surrounded Zhangzhou Prefecture City, and successfully defeated the troops sent by the Qing army in Fujian to rescue the siege.

However, the Lu Jianguo in Zhoushan was quite prestigious among the anti-Qing people in Zhejiang and had a greater threat. Chen Jin had to concentrate almost all his mobile troops to besiege Zhoushan first, and then concentrate his troops south to Fujian to solve Zheng Chenggong's problem.

Now Zhangzhou is still besieging, and Jinhua has a chaos. Although Chen Wen is good at using troops, his troops are limited after all, and Jinhua is already ruined and his strength cannot be improved too much. Behind Zheng Chenggong is the Zheng family in Shijing, Fujian. He monopolized the sea trade in the Fujian Sea. When he raised his army, he had more than 10,000 people. Last year, his strength doubled after occupying the Zhongzuo Institute.

In addition, at the beginning of this year, Zhang Xuesheng, Ma Degong and others robbed Zhongzuo Suo, and the Zheng Family Hai Trade savings for many years were robbed, and the participants made a shocking profit. The news came that all these Qing army generals envied this. Instead of fighting with Chen Wen, a poor man, and exhausting their strength, it is better to preserve their strength and siege Zheng Chenggong.

Therefore, officers at all levels of the Supervisor Battalion from Zhang Guoxun had already set a private decision that once it was not enough, they had to preserve their strength. When the right-wing Qing army was attacked by the Ming army as soon as they came into contact with him, they were quickly defeated, and they quickly sent cavalry to accelerate the collapse of the Yiwu camp to cover the evacuation of the main force.

The Battle of Xiaoshun Town was over, and neither Ming and Qing armies achieved the expected results, and the losses of both sides were not small. The Qing army came from the Green Camp soldiers of the four prefectures, while the Ming army concentrated in the Yiwu Camp, which was attacked by the Superbiao Camp.
