When Schroeder discovered this phenomenon, his front-line arquebus phalanx had almost lost control, and almost all the low-level and middle-level officers were dead.There were more than 600 matchlock gunners left to fight on their own, and Schroeder panicked.

Quickly mobilize the Indian arquebus they recruited later to help.

Mobilize the cold weapon troops to prepare to attack the enemy, and take advantage of the fact that they have not collapsed yet, and make a last-ditch effort.

"Hoo-," a bullet passed by his ear, and Schroeder was taken aback for a moment.

What's the situation? He's still 120 meters away from the enemy.

Stray bullets must be stray bullets. The musket gun is not far away, but inaccurate. This is a fact that he has long understood as a former senior Portuguese officer.

"Ah——" One of his personal guards fell from his horse, his head was down, and he lay on the ground like a person who entered the water sideways to swim, and remained motionless.

"Ah—," one of his orderlies died just as he was about to transmit his order to the Japanese phalanx in the rear.

No, what is the situation, Schroeder felt a little worried, will the next bullet hit him?

While he was thinking, his personal guards had surrounded him faithfully.

The tall war horses and the guards are tall and strong men, which really created trouble for the enemy's shooters.

But the Indians were miserable, and soon the Indians collapsed, and the pikemen who went up also collapsed, which directly led to the fact that even the Portuguese native troops who suffered heavy losses have no intention of fighting. They began to consciously stop their progress, and Move back stealthily to distance yourself from the enemy.

"Cavalry charge, cavalry charge." Schroeder doesn't care now, he already feels threatened, he feels bad, he doesn't want to die in front of the battle like the Spanish governor, and he doesn't want to be hit like the Dutch governor Yi Yi.

On the side, until now, there are only more than 100 Dutch arquebus troops and those cavalry, equipped with heavy armor, and the cold weapon troops who are about to attack the enemy's formation with the musketeers opening up the situation are also panicked. There is no guarantee that they will not be killed by the enemy, and they also suffered heavy losses.

In fact, they have persisted until now before collapsing. They are already considered the best army in the world.

The Spanish army couldn't bear it anymore, and lost more than 300 people. Their arquebus gunners had only more than 400 people left, and the others were also cold weapon troops.

The British are already all cold-armed troops, and they are retreating step by step under the threat of the Chinese army's arquebus phalanx.

The British Governor Macconger had already done what he should have done, and the cavalry charged.

The cavalry of the two men charged back, the interval was less than 5 minutes, but the results were different.

The British cavalry won suddenly, but they were blocked by the spearmen covering the left and right of the Chinese army, and blocked by the chasseurs of the Chinese army. More than 500 cavalry were suddenly blocked by the pikemen and 200 hunters.

The two sides fought together, the cavalry piled up with people, horses piled up with horses, and died in a crowd a few steps away from the pikemen, or were led away by the chasseurs, killed by short-fire guns or bows, and killed by sabers. Ten cavalrymen turned and fled.

The Portuguese cavalry, seemingly fierce and invincible cavalry, faced the phalanx of musketeers who had no opponents.

Continuous firepower strikes, a thick line of musketeers arranged in five rows, and hundreds of cavalry were constantly dismounted like delivering food. At a charging distance of 200 meters, the Portuguese cavalry rushed to the Chinese army with only one horse. A few musketeers were knocked into the air, and then they were stabbed into bloody hedgehogs by more than [-] bayonets.

"We lost—" Governor Schroeder fell from a height and said blankly.

Following his defeat, the entire coalition collapsed.

Turn around and run away.

A phalanx of more than 800 arquebus soldiers survived in the end, and only about 1000 people could turn around and escape. The 800 Indian arquebus gunners who came up were the last [-] Indian arquebus gunmen who survived from the coalition forces. Seven to [-] people were also killed, and the rest threw away their guns to compete with those cold-armed troops who could run faster.

"Boom, boom, boom—" the drums of the Huaxia Army became hurried.

The whole army began to pursue, all the cavalry and all active people made their best, and charged forward together.

The resonant bugle sounded at this time, which was the real horn of the Huaxia Army's charge.

Three days ago they were chasing the Ming army, the Ming army of the Longwu court in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and today it was the Huaxia army who had just had a head-to-head duel with them, with less than 4000 troops chasing them.

"Surrender, don't kill, kneel down and beg for mercy." No country or nation lacks soft bones. Among the captives Zhang Qiang prepared, those who abandoned the dark and turned to the bright were sent out by Zhang Qiang after the troops chased them out, and followed the troops and shouted.

Shout out in their language.

"Hold on, hold on," the Dekang family yelled to his subordinates angrily.

But how can you hold on?

There are constant British, Portuguese cavalry deserters, and even the governor's pro-guard cavalry attacking their unused force.

Nearly 2000 remaining arquebus units, and 2000 homeless ronin fighting units.

In the end, there were hundreds of Spanish troops left with heavy losses. They unceremoniously disrupted their formation with cavalry armed to the teeth. The remaining 200 arquebus gunners followed suit and attacked them as well.

You can't blame them, who let them block the main road back to the county, at least you get out of the way and let them go back to camp.

Where did you flee back to the camp of the first trench?

Behind them are the turbulent cold weapon troops from various countries. They have not been fully used. At this time, they have become the main force to massacre the Japanese. The Japanese have to fight these ferocious deserters. The Dekang family closed their eyes in pain. , This is the main force of his daimyo army, the elite.

Several loyal warriors protected the Patriarch and dragged him to escape with the chaotic Japanese daimyo army.

The hunters of the Huaxia Army in the back are like the Mongols playing Rome to let you, hanging from a distance, like driving a flock of sheep, driving them from all sides, seeing where they are gathered, rushing up, and shooting quickly with a bow and arrow, Otherwise, it was just a short-fire shot, and they scattered and fled again, never daring to gather together again.

The infantry of the Huaxia Army chased after them while tying people with ropes. They tied all the fleeing enemies who kneeled and surrendered with ropes, and then handed them over to a cavalry with ten soldiers to escort a group of about a hundred captives back to the camp. .

There are always four battalion-level musketeers scattered in the back, maintaining this formation, running forward, fan-shaped to guard against the enemy's counterattack, and at the same time enclosing the enemy in a small circle driven by the cavalry. Within a range of about two or three miles, the enemy only Can run towards the front, but cannot run to the sides or in all directions.

The Huaxia Army has a big appetite.

Dozens of special shooters have already left the formation, quickly interspersed, and rode their horses to the camp built by the Ming army. They are located in the first line of defense, under the camp in front of the first trench, and shot around the enemy camp. The same panicked enemy defenders.

In less than a quarter of an hour, when the enemies from all over the mountains fled, the defenders of the camp also abandoned the camp in a panic, and then fled towards the direction of the county.

Zhang Qiang looked through the binoculars at Xuanyuan Longfei who followed behind the enemy and took part in the interception and killing of the enemy with his personal guards, nodded secretly, and said, "Good job."

Then, under the protection of twenty guards, he returned to the original station, and he still had to consider further matters.

Chapter 4 and Six After the War

Back at the camp, Su Zhengqing, Li Guangdi, Li Guangxiong, three Nanming officials who had already seen his flag return, and Zhang Qiang's commander of a thousand households came out to greet him.

"Foreign ministers, Li Guangdi, Su Zhengqing, Li Guangxiong, welcome the Governor." Li Guangdi, the most senior of the three, led the way, followed by Li Guangxiong, and Su Zhengqing was the last, bowing and saluting one by one.

Over there, Commander Qianhu, who was stationed by the Huaxia Army, knelt on one knee and saluted, "Welcome to the Commander-in-Chief."

Zhang Qiang got off his horse, stood in front of the four of them, faced the group of people behind them, and waved his hands, "Get up. There is no need to be polite." With his gestures, he vividly displayed the majesty of a big man after victory. Subconsciously, Zhang Qiang didn't realize that he had transformed from a self-abased and self-sorrowful worker to a high-ranking aristocratic ruler in a feudal dynasty.

"Congratulations to the Commander-in-Chief, congratulations to the Commander-in-Chief, such a great victory is really exciting, shining to all people, shining through the ages." Li Guangxiong was the first to flatter Zhang Qiang with a smile.

"Hahaha, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning," Zhang Qiang smiled with a hint of complacency, even he felt incredible, and felt that it was very difficult to defeat the more than [-] Taixi soldiers with [-] soldiers. This is the first time that the Huaxia Army has used the platoon shooting tactic to defeat an enemy with great disparity in strength under the condition of a small number of troops.

"Back to the camp." Everyone chattered about the battle, Zhang Qiang waved his hand and went back to the camp to discuss.

Surrounded by everyone, Zhang Qiang returned to the camp's tent.

After taking his seat, Zhang Qiang said to Su Zhengqing: "General Su, what's the condition of the prisoners in the camp?"
