Lin Sitong and others finally found Chen Wenxiu.
It was a remote forest.
Chen Wenxiu quietly leaned on the tree trunk.
This butterfly-like girl can no longer comfort the injured soldiers with her lark-like voice.
Beside her, there were three or four Qing soldiers who went to hell.
At the last moment, the girl used a grenade and died together with the Qing army.
Everyone was crying bitterly, and the anger in their hearts was boiling over.
Lin Sitong wiped his face, carefully held the girl's body and placed it on the stretcher.
Everyone carried the stretcher with extreme caution, fearing that the girl would be disturbed again.
Lin Sitong began to load ammunition into the musket.
"Soushan!"
A big manhunt begins.
Every mountain ridge and every dense forest has been turned over by everyone.
All the Qing troops who had infiltrated were caught out. No matter how fierce their resistance was, once they were caught, they were all beaten to death.
The angry people had completely forgotten the discipline.
And their actions effectively supported the frontal battlefield in Shikou.
Azig no longer has the extra strength to break through here.
After Xi County was occupied by the 24th Division and the 25th Division, Azig had only one choice.
That is to escape into the mountains to the north and find a way out.
But everyone knows that once this is done, not even one percent of the Qing troops along this route will be able to escape.
Yanchang County.
Among the ruins, the fierce offensive and defensive battle has been going on for a long time.
Shi Tingzhu was so exhausted from fighting that his eyesight began to blur.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had eaten.
The last thing that entered his stomach was the flesh he cut from the leg of a dead soldier while others were not paying attention.
Raw human flesh smelled extremely fishy, but he couldn't care less.
"Flag Master, all the medicine is gone."
The generals under his command ran over in panic and reported a desperate news.
The greatest combat power in Shi Tingzhu's hands is Wu Zhenchaoha.
When all the artillery is lost, the musket is the most important weapon.
But now that all the bullets are gone, the muskets have become fire sticks.
Shi Tingzhu turned over with great effort and suddenly asked: "How many days have we been fighting?"
The general didn't know why, so he answered honestly.
"It's been five days."
"How many days will the Prince of England's order be observed?"
"Ten days."
Shi Tingzhu patted his thigh, feeling extremely helpless.
"How can you keep this?"
However, the Qing army was very disciplined, and he did not dare to disobey Azig's orders even if it was very difficult.
"Go and invite Bayan Zhangjing, Li Guohan Zhangjing, Jin Li Zhangjing, and King Pingxi to come over."
The Liang army's attack became more and more fierce, and Shi Tingzhu had a premonition that he could no longer hold on.
He planned to discuss with several generals to adjust the defensive strategy. No matter what, we must persist for the number of days required by Azig.
But Bayan, Li Guohan, and Jin Li arrived one after another, but Wu Sangui was nowhere to be seen.
"What is King Pingxi doing? Why doesn't he come?"
No one could give me an answer, they all looked at each other.
Shi Tingzhu suddenly felt a sense of panic, and hurriedly ran out of the camp, looking at the mountains to the north with a telescope.
Just one glance made him fall to the ground.
Wu Sangui's flags, which were originally densely packed on Beishan, have now disappeared. On the contrary, a Liang army was running quickly towards Wu Sangui's position, but no fighting scenes could be seen.
"How dare Wang An of Pingxi do this?"
Shi Tingzhu burst into tears and shouted filial piety, but he was already helpless.
Wu Sangui ran away alone without saying hello. He also gave up all the positions high on the right wing to the Liang army and sold them all at the same time.
Once the Liang army completes the outflank, I'm afraid everyone will die here.
The Qing army immediately fell into panic and chaos.
Everyone knew that the situation was over, and they all retreated, fearing that they would be surrounded by Liang's army.
Originally, Yanchang County was considered a dangerous place, and each department was guarded separately. Even if there were heavy casualties and not much food and grass, the Liang army could still be stopped.
Now that Wu Sangui has escaped from the battlefield, there is no way to maintain the front.
If we don't retreat quickly, everyone will have a hard time surviving.
Although most of the generals and soldiers here are Han Chinese, others still lack the necessary understanding of Wu Sangui.
Shi Tingzhu, Bayan, Li Guohan, Jin Li and others all surrendered to the Qing Dynasty very early. It has been fighting from the Nurhaci era to the present, and has long been integrated with the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The way of fighting and thinking are exactly the same as the Manchus.
But Wu Sangui is different.
Just over a year ago, he was the warlord of the Ming Dynasty.
This kind of warlord has no country, no king, no loyalty and no righteousness in his heart. His priority in every battle is always himself.
Shi Tingzhu and others ignored this and placed Wu Sangui on the fatal right-wing high ground.
Wu Sangui fought hard at first, but as his men suffered more and more casualties, he began to think about conserving his strength.
In Wu Sangui's opinion, he only had a large number of soldiers and horses in his hands, so that he could gain a firm foothold in the Qing Dynasty and continue to be his King of Pingxi.
If all the soldiers and horses were exhausted and he became a mere commander, would the Manchu Qing still pay attention to him?
Therefore, the sky is vast and the earth is vast, and the preservation power is the greatest.
So Wu Sangui gave full play to the warlord spirit of being a dead Taoist friend but not a poor Taoist, and sold Shi Tingzhu and others without even announcing the news.
On the anxious battlefield, the Qing army's retreat quickly evolved into a rout.
They headed eastward crazily along the Yanhe River. Because the road was so narrow, even their own people started wielding knives at each other.
Liang Yue didn't know what happened to the Qing army, but when he saw the Qing army retreating, how could he let go of this God-given opportunity?
He gave an order, and more than 100,000 Liang troops chased him like ferocious tigers, biting the tail of the Qing army and chasing them madly.
There is only one road heading east from Yanchang County.
It is along both sides of the Yanhe River, all the way to the Yellow River. He couldn't even try to seize the way.
After fighting for several days, the exhausted Qing army was quickly overtaken by the Liang army. But at this moment, they were no longer able to reorganize their array and resist.
Jiang Chaoyun is on the left bank and Zhao Silie is on the right bank. The Chahar Mongols led by Duoyun Shanhai also dismounted and joined in the killing.
These people all had a blood feud with the Manchus, and they acted mercilessly at this time.
As long as the Qing army lags behind, they will inevitably die. Even when he fell to the ground injured, his head was cut off.
The Liang army doesn’t want any prisoners!
During the journey of more than two hundred miles, countless people were killed by the Qing army.
And these people are basically the Qing and Han banners.
After these people abandoned their ancestors and joined the Qing Dynasty, they often waved butcher knives at their compatriots. They dyed their crowns red with the blood of their compatriots in exchange for glory and wealth.
But today, these traitors all pay the price for what they have done!
