On the Songshan front, Zhang Malin stared at the Ming army coming towards the mountainside in front. At the same time, he continued to adjust the artillery in his hand. After adjusting the angle, he directly ignited the artillery himself.

In an instant, the 200-pound cannon in his hand opened fire again, and then another 200-pound cannon beside him also opened fire. The two cannons fired large pieces of iron beads and shrapnel, causing casualties of about seven or eight county heroes at the foot of the mountain.

However, the Ming army at the foot of the mountain did not stop the attack. The county heroes in front of them drove the soldiers behind them, even if they were reluctant, they could only continue to climb up the mountain.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Malin was also powerless.

Although the two cannons under his command are very powerful, their firing rate is just that. Even if they do the maximum rapid firing regardless of the cannon's ability, their firing rate is not as fast as there.

After the Ming army below suffered artillery attacks, as long as they were not directly hit by a round of artillery attacks, they could continue to attack while the artillery fire was fired.

As the Ming army continued to advance, especially when they climbed halfway up the mountain, due to the influence of the shooting boundary, his two artillery guns could not be directly aimed at the Ming army on the left mountainside.

In desperation, Zhang Malin could only ignore these Ming troops, and then adjust the angle of the artillery and began to shell the large number of Ming troops directly in front of the valley.

The Ming army on the mountainside on the left can only be handed over to the archers and infantrymen.

Not long after, the soldiers of Baoxiang Camp on the top of the mountain began to shoot arrows at the Ming army that had entered the range of their own bows and arrows.

They were condescending, and the trees in this place had been cut down in advance, and even some stones and other things were half moved away. The Ming army could not find any shelter when they climbed the mountain to launch an attack.

And when they were halfway up the mountain, there were many obstacles such as horses to block their pace.

As the soldiers of Baoxiang camp on the top of the mountain began to bend their bows and shoot arrows, the county yong who had finally climbed up the hillside was once again killed and injured again.

When they were killed more than 20 people by bows and arrows, the remaining more than 60 county heroes finally couldn't stand it anymore, and turned around and ran towards the foot of the mountain.

Even though they knew that there were soldiers to supervise the battle behind them, they turned around and ran away.

If you don't run away, will you be shot to death by bows and arrows on the mountain?

Seeing that the county heroes in front of them fled, the soldiers behind them were not polite at all. They bent their bows and shot arrows, and killed several county heroes who ran the fastest.

"Those who retreat without authorization can kill you!"

After the soldiers killed more than ten defeated soldiers in succession, they finally stopped the defeated soldiers.

But when the soldiers drove them out to attack the mountain again, these county warriors still stopped moving forward.

If you run backwards, you will be killed by soldiers. If you attack on the mountain, you will be killed by bandits.

what to do?

Soon a smart person made a choice. These people could not move forward or backward, but they could run to the left and right sides...

One, two, seven or eight people, so soon these county heroes rushed towards the mountains on the west side...

Huang Guangmao from behind saw this scene and his face was dark.

These county heroes are not even qualified to be cannon fodder.

How difficult it is to continue rushing up to consume the enemy archer's arrows and physical fitness? Just keep rushing forward stupidly, but these county heroes did not dare to continue rushing forward, but chose to drill into the forest on one side.

County Yong died and injured thirty or forty people, and the rest ran into the forest area on the side. The soldiers behind him could not stop him even if they wanted to stop him.

what to do?

After pondering for a while, Huang Guangmao immediately gritted his teeth and ordered: "Let them continue to attack."

The hillside on the left has reached this point, and Huang Guangmao is not willing to retreat easily.

Once you retreat now, it means that hundreds of county heroes have lost in vain before.

Although County Yong is just cannon fodder and is also an unqualified cannon fodder, the county Yong cannon fodder he can command is limited.

After the hundreds of cannon fodder County Yongs attacked the hillside on the left, it was difficult for him to draw enough cannon fodder from behind to rush forward and take the lead.

Therefore, even if you know that continuing to attack will be more difficult and will cause losses to your own soldiers.

But even if it is difficult to fight, even if it is necessary to pay a certain amount of casualties, he plans to try to attack.

So, the sixty Ming soldiers on the hillside on the left once again moved forward.

As soon as they stepped forward, the archers from Baoxiang Camp on the top of the mountain continued to shoot arrows.

Under the coverage of the arrows of Baoxiangying, even though these soldiers had better quality, they still suffered considerable losses.

After all, not many of these soldiers had armor, and only a dozen of them had armor among the sixty soldiers, and most of them were not very cotton-iron armor.

Under the cover of the first round of arrows, seven or eight people were soon killed or injured. These Ming troops were worthy of being war soldiers. Although they were killed and injured by arrows, they still rushed forward.

But when they were about to rush to the top of the mountain, only twenty or thirty meters away from the wooden wall, they encountered a large number of obstacles set by wood, which made them unable to continue to move forward quickly. When they climbed over these obstacles, they were killed by dense arrows.

A few Ming troops who were looking through obstacles were blocked by the wooden wall again. Before they could climb up the wooden wall, they had already stabbed the condescending bandits on the wooden wall to death with their spears.

Seeing the soldiers in front of him continue to suffer casualties, Huang Guangmao was heartbroken, and finally gritted his teeth and ordered to retreat.

Nearly twenty soldiers under his command had died or injured. If he continued to attack like this, the remaining forty soldiers would probably die.

After watching the Ming army pushing down in this direction, Luo Zhixue on the hillside on the left breathed a sigh of relief.

In just a moment, the left direction was severely tested.

The Ming army opposite sent a hundred county heroes and sixty soldiers to charge towards the left hillside, and their artillery had no time to carry out the first round of artillery bombing.

However, the Ming army was bombarded and lost seven or eight people, but continued to attack.

When they rushed to the mountainside and began to cover and shoot, they killed twenty or thirty enemy county heroes, forcing enemy county braves to flee.

Later, when the Ming army soldiers stopped the defeated soldiers and tried to drive away the defeated soldiers again, the defeated soldiers continued to attack, the county soldiers fled directly to the side.

Originally, Luo Zhixue thought that this would be a joke, but he did not expect that the Ming army would not give up and sent troops to continue the attack.

Fortunately, the cavalry whistle led by EYD was very good at archery, and the archery shot killed and injured more than ten enemy soldiers. Later, in the sporadic close-killing forces of the wooden wall, some of the old thieves were the backbone soldiers and killed and injured many of the soldiers, which really forced the enemy's attack back.

With the retreat of the Ming army, it also means that the left defense line is considered safe.

At this time, Luo Zhixue looked towards the front and right sides of the valley, and found that the Ming army in these two places was also gradually retreating.

The Ming army on the front of the valley seemed to be crowded, but they were not too close to the valley, and they were not even close to the place where the Ming army left artillery before the road.

Their more than 200 county warriors were attacked by two rounds of artillery and covered by several waves of arrows. More than 20 people were killed or injured in the front and back and retreated.

The same is true on the other side on the right. The Ming army who was climbing the mountain attack killed or injured more than ten county dynasties and retreated.

The defense lines on both sides of the left and right sides resisted the Ming army's attack, which greatly relieved Luo Zhixue.

This time it was blocked!

And many enemy troops were killed and injured.

On the left side of the defense line, the enemy county warriors and twenty battle soldiers killed and injured thirty or forty people. On the front and right side, dozens of county warriors also killed and injured at least a hundred enemies. In addition, the county warriors with dozens of people fled into the mountains and forests on the side. It was probably not easy for the Ming army to gather them back together.

While killing many enemies, you can also seize a batch of swords, spears and other remains of the enemy.

What about the Baoxiang Camp who achieved these results?

Luo Zhixue himself was on the left defense line where the fiercest battle was fought. He knew some of the casualties of the left defense line. More than a dozen people were killed by Ming army bows and arrows.

Baoxiang Camp used bows and arrows to kill and injure the Ming army. The Ming army soldiers also had bows and arrows, and they would also use bows and arrows to fight back, but they had wooden walls as cover, so most of the Ming army's arrows were currently not big.

There was no one killed or injured in the front of the valley because the enemy had never really approached the front line of defense. When they were still on the periphery, they were bombarded and bowed and arrowed to intercept the casualties and some of them retreated.

The right defense line is estimated to be about four or five people killed or injured, but it is still not many.

Overall, it is estimated that there are about twenty people who died or injured on our side.

There is a huge gap in the proportion of casualties between the two sides.

Of course, this is also because there were a large number of county braves in the Ming army, and the Ming army simply used county braves as cannon fodder.

As for the Ming army's combat troops, there were actually only about twenty people, which was far from being damaged by menstruation and bone movement for Huang Guangmao's troops.

After watching the enemy retreat, Luo Zhixue, who was in a good mood, immediately ordered: "Send someone to pick up all the weapons left by the enemy, and also need to treat his own wounded."

Speaking of this, Luo Zhixue looked at the open space in front of the valley, where there were three artillery left by the Ming army.

Although both sides fought around this place several times, so that there were a lot of arrows scattered in this place, the three cannons were actually nothing, and they were all there for no reason.

After thinking about it, Luo Zhixue immediately said to Lin Dongsheng: "Take the team over and see if there is a chance to drag the three cannons over. I will let the artillery team and archers cover you."

As he said that, he added another sentence: "If there is really no chance, then destroy the cannon cart and don't give the enemy a chance to drag the cannon back."

If these three hundred-pound cannons can be dragged back, it means that the firepower of their own artillery can be increased on the spot.

Even if it cannot be dragged back, if the artillery carriages of these three cannons can be destroyed, the Ming army would not be able to rush over again and bring these three cannons back in a short time, which would prevent the Ming army from being able to use these three cannons in the future.

Lin Dongsheng immediately took the order and left!

When Luo Zhixue arranged to clean the battlefield and treat the wounded, Huang Guangmao at the foot of the mountain frowned, while Wang Jida on the side was also having a dark face.

Moreover, Wang Jida did not force Huang Guangmao to send troops again like before, but instead had a dark face and didn't know what he was thinking.

The reason why they were so demeanor was naturally because of their miserable defeat in the attack just now!
