Kong Youde didn't like it, so he sent an order immediately.

"Quickly, stop the siege."

The rebels, who were about to charge up again, were routed like a tide after hearing the order.

Since surrendering to the Eastern Captivity, almost all the Ming troops they encountered were vulnerable. Today was the first time they encountered such a strong opponent, and the morale of the rebels dropped instantly.

When the number of people killed in battle was reported to Kong Youde, Kong Youde was so angry that he almost vomited blood again. With such kung fu, more than half of the [-] siege soldiers were killed or injured.

Kong Youde hurriedly sent an order to retreat five miles to set up camp, and then he wrote a letter to Geng Zhongming, asking Geng Zhongming to come to support him with a cannon in red.

Liaoyang city

"Report to the governor, just now the rebel army attacked the city and was defeated by our army, and now they have retreated five miles and set up camp."

Qi Jiguang smiled and nodded:

"Understood, let's go down."

"Yes"

After the soldiers left, Li Cunxiao asked with some doubts:

"Captain, they are besieging and not attacking. Are they afraid? The last general will lead his troops out to attack once."

Qi Jiguang shook his head:

"No, they should be waiting for the red-clothed cannon. The only one who can provide them with the red-clothed cannon is Geng Zhongming, but Geng Zhongming is still in Ningyuan."

Qi Jiguang spread out the map and looked carefully for a while, and suddenly made a decision, that is to attack Kong Youde's camp at night, and then wait for Geng Zhongming to send the cannon to the door.

"Huang Ming." Recommended reading../../

"The end is here,"

"You led five thousand Qi's troops, quietly left the city from the east gate after dark, and remained in ambush on Longfeng Mountain. If Kong Youde was defeated and fled, no one would be spared. Immediately arrange for your soldiers to sleep."

"Yes"

Huang Ming took the order to leave, and Qi Jiguang looked at the two commanders again.

"Long Yuan Chengyuan, the two of you are in charge of defending the city. Kong Youde should not dare to attack the city for the time being. Two thousand soldiers are enough to defend the city. Just in case, you should be careful and prepare more ammunition."

"Yes"

"Yang An, arrange for the artillery to rest immediately. Before the third watch at night, place [-] red cannons and [-] tiger squatting cannons within the effective range of the rebel camp."

"Yes"

"Qi Tong, you lead a firearms battalion and pay attention to protecting the artillery. Once the opponent finds out, if you are unable to keep the artillery, blow up all of them immediately."

"Yes"

"The rest of the Qi family army who have not received the order should go to rest immediately, and follow the governor to attack the enemy camp on time at midnight."

"Yes"

All the soldiers who received the order went to rest. Li Cunxiao saw that something was wrong, there was nothing about the black armored cavalry, so he immediately clasped his fists to Qin and said:

"Captain, why don't our black armored cavalry have missions?"

Qi Jiguang laughed loudly:

"General Li, you don't have to be lazy if you want to, the Xuanjia Army is the main force of our Ming army's surprise attack, gather all the Xuanjia iron cavalry, and wrap all the horses' hooves with cotton.

After the artillery bombardment, the Xuanjia iron cavalry gave the governor all his strength to attack the enemy camp, trying to wipe out the [-] rebels on the opposite side, and did not accept prisoners. "

"Yes"

After Li Cunxiao accepted the order, he immediately went to arrange Xuanjia cavalry to wrap cotton for the horseshoes of the war horses. Qi Jiguang thought about whether there were any omissions, and then he put on his clothes and lay down on the bed to rest.

The night gradually deepened, and there was silence outside the city, only the sound of the cold wind blowing on the branches, and the soldiers in the city were busy eating, and only when they were full could they have the energy to kill the enemy.

The artillerymen began to eat as soon as they were on watch. After the meal, they quietly moved the artillery out of Liaoyang, and set up thirty red cannons two miles behind the rebel barracks.

Two hundred tiger crouching cannons were quietly set up in the bushes not far from the bandit barracks, just waiting for the arrival of the third watch.

The weather in Liaodong was already very cold, but it was even colder during the Little Ice Age.

Kong Youde believed that the Ming army did not dare to go out to fight in broad daylight, and they should not go out of the city to attack in such a cold night.

Later, under Hong Chengchou's reminder, Kong Youdecai ordered that the tiger crouching cannon be mounted at the gate of the camp to prevent the Ming army from attacking at night.

But on such a cold day, it was safe and sound all night, and there was no movement at all. The guards gradually relaxed their vigilance, and the artillerymen all got into the tents to keep warm.

Only a few bandit soldiers were left on duty outside, but they were all in a daze, feeling that they couldn't open their eyes, so they just snuggled up next to the military tent and closed their eyes with their Vulcan guns in their arms.

For so many years, the Ming army has not posed a threat to them at all, and they almost fled after a fight, which made these rebels relax their vigilance long ago.

"Boom bang..."

"Rumble..."

Suddenly there was a violent cannon sound outside the camp gate, and the camp gate was instantly smashed by shells. Almost all the tiger squatting guns erected there were destroyed. The bandits on duty suffered heavy casualties and fled with their heads in their hands.

Then countless shells bombed into the barracks on both sides of the barracks. These shells were mainly explosive shells. Many bandit soldiers were killed by shells while they were still in their dreams.

Chapter 163 Annihilation of the Rebel Army and Capture of Kong Youde Alive

Two hundred tiger crouching cannons and thirty red cannons poured a large number of shells into the rebel barracks.

The thieves and rebels who were only beaten were in a mess crying for their parents and mothers. Many people woke up in a dream, and they couldn't even find their shoes and weapons.

Seeing that the mess was enough, Qi Jiguang immediately issued an order:

"Come on, send the signal."

"Yes"

"Whizzing……"

"Chichi..."

Three rockets were shot into the sky with a loud noise, which was very obvious in the dark night.

When Li Cunxiao saw the signal, King Yu raised his spear high:

"Boys, follow this general and kill all the dogs and traitors..."
