"Back to the city."
When something happened in the city, Liu Dagong had no choice but to return for help.
There is nothing on the Guanshan defense line, and food and equipment need support from the city. Once Chuzhou City is lost, this line of defense will lose its effectiveness.
Liu Dagong was so flustered that he had no time to think carefully at this time, so he mobilized all his troops and went down the mountain in a hurry.
Because the road was difficult to travel at night, the army had to light torches. And this has undoubtedly become a guiding light in the dark night.
In the New Army headquarters at the foot of the mountain, when he saw the fire on the top of the mountain shining continuously, the experienced Lou Fu knew that something must have happened.
"Tell all the troops to search the mountains and be careful to prevent it from being a plot by the enemy."
The New Army began to move out, but because they could not confirm whether the Ming army on the mountain really retreated or were deceitful, the speed was slow.
This gave Liu Dagong enough time to finally run back to Chuzhou City.
The special forces entered through the south gate, while Liu Dagong returned to the west gate.
At this time, there was still a general leading a hundred or so soldiers who were defending the city.
There were two artillery pieces on the city, and the defenders still had bows and arrows. The special forces had no heavy weapons, and they fought twice without success.
Seeing Liu Dagong returning to help, he quickly ordered people to open the city gate.
Outside the city, Liu Dagong had already heard the shouts of killing inside. When the city gate opened, he quickly commanded his troops to rush in.
The Ming army on top of the city also used artillery support.
"Stand back, avoid the sharp edge of the artillery, and slowly deal with these people."
Zhao Sanyang took his time and led his troops to retreat all the way back.
Liu Dagong didn't know, he thought the new army was afraid, so he immediately cheered up and even rushed ahead.
Seeing him as a civil servant waving a sword without fear, the rest of the Ming army soldiers were also inspired and ran faster and faster.
The general ran across two street corners and reached a place on the city where the artillery could not see, but the Ming army had not noticed anything unusual.
"Do it."
Zhao Sanyang ordered lazily.
The men beside him quickly pulled the rope.
Cluster grenades that had been hidden on the roadside were fired one after another.
The explosion roared along the street, and the entire street was shrouded in flying bricks, dirt, and dust.

None of the Ming troops who ran to this area were spared, either dead or injured.
Although the ones behind were not hit by the explosion, they were shaken to pieces by the roaring explosion and became a mess.
Special forces hidden in every corner took the opportunity to open fire.
The Ming army was on the streets without cover, while the special forces were hiding in various corners.
All of them are sharpshooters. Even in the dark, they will never fail as long as they capture a shadow.
Amidst the sparse gunfire, the Ming army suffered very few casualties.
One after another fell down inexplicably, but you couldn't see where the enemy was. This feeling was really scary.
I don’t know which one was scared away first. He yelled, turned around and ran away.
But when he ran, he moved violently and was immediately discovered by the special forces.
A cloud of white smoke and fleeting sparks rose up from the black screen, and the man flew out like a broken sack, fell heavily to the street, and could no longer move.
The remaining Ming soldiers were stunned, lying on the ground one after another, looking around in horror.
But if they don't move, even the special forces with their sharp eyes can't tell who is dead and who is alive, let alone appear and rush forward.
The scene was at a stalemate for a while.
The person who broke this situation was Liu Dagong.
He rushed to the front and was also affected when the grenade exploded. But there were many people around him, and they all acted as human shields for him. Therefore, he was only knocked unconscious by the explosion, and was neither dead nor injured.
After a while, he woke up slowly, but his mind was still spinning, and his pupils were filled with blood.
He staggered up and became the only person standing on the battlefield.
He didn't know what was going on, he just waved the sword in his hand naturally and kept shouting.
"Come on...kill the thieves! Kill all the Shandong rebels! Serve the king, protect Sangzi, and fight against these deviant thieves!"
The special forces sniper locked onto him and gently pulled the trigger.
boom……
The bullet came out of the chamber as fast as lightning, giving no one any time to react.
A bloody flower burst out from Liu Dagong's forehead, and he fell on his back, immediately becoming silent.
Under the powerful kinetic energy of the rifle, as long as it hits a vital point, he will die on the spot without any room for relief.
The soldiers behind Liu Dagong lost their will when they saw that the chief officer was dead.
"The prefect is dead!"
"Master Liu was beaten to death!"
"Run!"
The Ming army was in chaos. Some people stood up and ran back, while others simply knelt on the ground and surrendered on the spot.
There were faint shouts, and the special forces realized that the shot just now killed Liu Dagong.
Zhao Sanyang took out a loudspeaker and shouted loudly: "Kneel down on the spot and surrender without killing."
But the chaotic Ming army didn't listen at all, and some even started killing each other.
Zhao Sanyang was really angry. He waved his hand and heard another burst of gunfire.
A full thirty or forty people were beaten to death, and the scene was finally calmed down.
Seeing that no one dared to move, Zhao Sanyang shouted again: "Put down your weapons and raise your hands to surrender. If you dare to resist, you will be shot to death."
This time, he was the only voice in the scene, and all the Ming army heard it clearly.
No one dared to resist anymore, only a crashing sound was heard, and all the Ming soldiers felt that the weapons in their hands were hot to the touch, and they threw them on the ground. Then he raised his hands high and knelt down honestly.
The special forces came out of the darkness, weapons in hand, and approached cautiously.
First, he kicked the weapon away from the person in front of him, and then said to the person in front of him: "Put your hands behind your head, walk over there and squat down."
These surrendered Ming troops were very obedient, and soon they were all disarmed and became prisoners of the special forces.
In this battle, the special forces created a miracle.
With 300 men, 3,500 Ming troops were wiped out, and no one was captured.
Zhao Sanyang walked to Liu Dagong's body and looked at the Chuzhou magistrate.
Liu Dagong was in his forties, with a handsome appearance and wearing an official uniform of the Ming Dynasty. Even after death, his eyes were still wide open, with a majestic look.
Dying like this might be a relief for him.
Although he is an opponent, Zhao Sanyang also has full respect for him.
"Carefully collect his body and hand it over to his family without any shame."
Those Ming soldiers who surrendered could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that this group of terrible people did not mutilate Liu Dagong's body.
Even Liu Dagong, the culprit, has not suffered, and these little pawns should not be punished.
