    "Woo¡ª! Woo¡ª¡ª¡ª! Woo¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª!"

    Amidst the muffled sound of horns that could be heard from each other, Wu Sangui's army and the Qing army's army entered their respective positions and confronted each other along the Anshun official road.  Slightly southerly location.  The flags were flying, the flags were like forests, swords and guns were like mountains, and the team was so vast that it almost completely covered the most spacious and fertile Anshun Basin in Guizhou.

    It was also a coincidence that the sky was clear and cloudless, and the rising sun just shone on the faces of Wu Jun Yungui soldiers who were fighting against the light.  It looks glorious and magnificent, but in fact its face is hideous and gloomy.

    It is precisely because of this light trend that it is inevitable that Laoqiu Bawu Sangui and the old traitor secretly rejoiced in his heart-the Wu army is in charge in the morning, and although the backlight operation is affected to a certain extent, due to the advantages of fortifications, such an impact will definitely not be too great.  In the afternoon, the Wu army counterattacked westward in the sun, and the impact of the backlight on the Mite Qing army, which had no fortification advantage, was far greater than the impact and disturbance received by the Wu army when it was backlighted in the morning.

    At the beginning of the hour, the formation of the two sides was completed. As expected by the decision-makers of the Qing army, Wu Sangui's army deployed heavy troops in the middle of the front. Almost all the elite cavalry gathered in the open area about six miles wide in the front.  The two wings protected by a large number of fortifications are relatively weak. Both wings have only 10,000 troops each, and they are mainly infantry, with poor mobility.  Obviously, Wu Jun placed all his bets on the frontal main battlefield, and did not intend to surprise the victory.

    What worried Oboi secretly and puzzled most of the generals and soldiers was that the first row of the Wu army's central army did not deploy long-range attack weapons such as bows and arrows and musketeers, and there were even pitifully few  The thirty or forty Hongyi cannons were also arranged by Wu Jun in the second team to throw them upwards, and the Wu Jun soldiers deployed in the first row-a wooden cart pushed by horses!  There are hundreds of thousands, big and small, long and short, lined up in front of the Wu army formation, leaving only a few passages for the rear army to move forward.  Moreover, each wooden cart was covered with a straw mat to cover it, so that the mite army could not detect what mysterious weapon was hidden under the straw mat.

    "Unsurprisingly, those wooden carts should be the new firearms made by the old thief Wu Sangui with a lot of money. What exactly are they?" Obai was both curious and nervous.  It's useless if there is less, the old traitor Wu has been preparing for this day for so many years, and he will never show his strength at the last moment. The army sent too many to form the main attack, which is in the hands of the old traitor Wu.  So Aobai gritted his teeth, and finally gave up on this idea.

    "Report to Grand Master!" At this time, all the generals of Mite Qing rushed to the front of the flag array on the top of the short mountain, knelt down on one knee together, clasped their fists and said neatly: "Our army has finished preparing for battle, please give orders to Grand Master!"

    "Prince Kang Jieshu, lead 20,000 infantry, send troops from the right wing of our army, and attack Wu Ni's left wing." Aobai shouted loudly: "Prince An, lead 20,000 infantry, send troops from the left wing of our army, and attack Wu Ni's right wing! Use up Wu Ni's troops!  , Destroy and fill up the fortifications on Wu Ni's wings, and open the way for our cavalry to attack! The rest of the generals restrain their troops and wait for the commander-in-chief's order!"

    "Cover!" Hundreds of Qing generals agreed loudly in unison, each of them galloped back to the formation to deliver orders, while Yue Le and Jie Shu rode their horses and galloped left and right, mobilizing the troops to attack.  After a while, the infantry on the left and right wings of the main force of the Qing Dynasty came out together, lined up in a neat square formation, and marched towards the ends of the two wings of the Wu army with the battalion as a unit.

    On the right wing of the Qing army, Jie Shu concentrated the army at one point, gave full play to his superiority in strength, and stormed a Wu army defense line about two miles long.  On the left wing of the Qing army, Yue Le cunningly stretched out the battle line to a length of more than six miles, with 5,000 elite troops marching in the formation, while the remaining 15,000 troops launched a wave-like attack on the Wu army's position, in an attempt to stretch the front line and disperse the Wu army's strength.  , looking for a breakthrough.

    Because the possibility that the Qing army would attack the two wings was fully considered before the war, although Wu Sangui's old traitor deployed relatively few troops on the two wings, the army was quite elite.  Wu Yingjing, the general and Wu Sangui's nephew, faced Yue Le on the right wing against Wu Shizong, the grandson of Wu Sangui who personally killed the green hat king Sun Yanling and captured Kong Sizhen alive.

    Although the two generals on the left and right flanks of the Wu army were relatively small in strength, they had far more experience than Jie Shu and Yue Le. Facing the Qing army's advance, they were calm and calm, and deployed bows, arrows and muskets to suppress them from the front, while dispatching a large number of elite infantry from the side to enter the densely packed environment.  Anti-horse trenches, holding short knives and spears that are good for tunnel combat, hold your breath and wait for the Qing army to attack.

    ? At three quarters of the hour, the battle drums on the two wings of the mite Qing army??Get ready to go back and kill all the dogs.  "

    "What do you mean?" Before Wu Shizong could finish his exclamation, a cannon rang out from behind the dwarf hill to the north of the Wu army's right-wing position, and a group of Wu army cavalry rushed out.  .  At the same time, there was a sound of cannons in the south, and countless white spots suddenly appeared in the mountains and green forests, and they quickly gathered into a piece, condescendingly charging towards the flanks of the Qing army that had penetrated behind the Wu army's fortifications.

    "It's been tricked!" Yue Le's face turned pale.  At this time, Zhao Liangdong who was standing next to him suddenly screamed in despair, "Hui Yu soldiers! They are Huu Yu soldiers! Your lord, retreat quickly, they are Huu Yu soldiers! They are all lunatics on the battlefield! Crazy people¡ª¡ª!"

    The white dots appearing in the mountains and forests are indeed Jigi soldiers. These ethnic minority soldiers unique to Yunnan and Guizhou all wrap their heads in white cloth, carry huge swords on their backs, and hold earthen cannons made of bamboo tubes or poisonous bamboo arrows in their hands.  Running across the mountains and through the jungle like flying, shouting excitedly, the tide rushed towards the Yue Yue Club of the Qing army, which was attacked on three sides. Before the people arrived, the poisonous arrows and fist-sized earthen artillery projectiles had already arrived, and the soldiers of the Qing army who were caught off guard rushed one after another.  The arrow was shot, and the screams of despair quickly echoed among the Qing army.  (To be continued.
