There were more than 100,000 people in the county town on the left side of the North Camp, the camp outside the city, and the Nanchang camp. However, at this moment, the captured and surrendered Xiang army and the bandits in the South Camp did not dare to attack again. Fortunately, they had solid camps and long trenches before. If it weren't for these things, it would be easy for the government army to dispatch a small number of infantry and cavalry to cooperate to defeat these 100,000 people.

At night, the soldiers on both sides were extremely tired. Xu Zi first sent orders and did not relax. A large number of baggage soldiers held torches. The archers and the bandit camp continued to shoot at each other. The crossbows were fired as much as possible, so that the enemy police could not suppress the archery with all their strength. The slingers and shields continued to accumulate soil.

The bandits also knew that the earthen mountain was important, and they were dozens of steps away from the camp gate. Once they were piled up, the government army would be in a prestigious manner towards it, and would be suppressed and could not hold it back at that time.

In the middle of the night, the enemy camp suddenly opened, and hundreds of armored bandit soldiers were holding long scepters, big axes and long swords suddenly came out. They were all covered with iron armor, and they were the heavy generals of bandit soldiers and generals. A long man held a sword in both hands. It was difficult for the soldiers of the government to be one of the enemies.

Xu Zixian stood on the earthen mountain. Seeing this, he was eager to try it out. He really wanted to meet the big man by himself. The big man was probably Liu Maoqi, and he thought he was the number one powerful general under Li Kaiming.

But how could the generals of the government army ask the King of Zhongshan to face the enemy in person? At that moment, Liu Yi took the lead and jumped off the earth mountain. The navy soldiers were the ones carrying the earth pile. Liu Yi was in charge of the overall situation on the mountain. Seeing this, the other generals had no choice but to give up Liu Yi.

Liu Yi held two swords, while Liu Maoqi had two long swords. They attacked the long swords with a long sword, opened and closed with great force, and were extremely quick to move. Ordinary people could not react at all and were stabbed by him. Liu Yi was good at short attacks, with dense moves. As soon as the two joined the battle, they took action continuously. Liu Maoqi kept exhaling and stabbing the long sword, swaying, swinging, and constantly attacking Liu Yi. Liu Yi's two swords were as fast as lightning. In addition, they kept setting up the gears, and they also fought back from time to time.

One of the two is a bandit general who has been famous for a long time, and the other is a general family. He has been in the martial arts world for many years. He has a lot of fighting experience and is very murderous and has enough murderous intentions. When he was not satisfied with the match, Liu Yi was stabbed in the leg. Fortunately, he had a shin guard and was not injured. Liu Maoqi was also scratched his arm by a horizontal knife, which looked bloody and his injuries were not serious.

When the generals fought, a large number of soldiers of the government army had formed a formation, with long guns in front, and the shield hands were on both sides. Amid the shouts, the skillful and tacit government army soldiers defeated hundreds of bandits who were attacking. Liu Maoqi was also entangled into the camp by the defeated soldiers. At this time, both sides knew that the outcome had been decided.

By dawn, a large number of archers of the government army climbed under the piled earth mountain, and the offensive and defense momentum reversed. The earth mountain was higher than the Beiying. The archers of the government army began to shoot arrows from a high place, causing many bandits to be unable to raise their heads.

At this point, the two sides fought fiercely for two days and nights, and many soldiers were on the verge of losing their strength. Xu Zixian and many generals were covered with bloodshot eyes. Many soldiers took off their strength while shooting arrows, and even fell down. They were extremely tired and fainted.

By noon, the bandits were even more unable to support them, and the counterattack arrows were weak and weak. After all, most of them were newly recruited miners. Even if the miners were born good soldiers, they had been trained and knew that the consequences of defeat were serious, so they gritted their teeth and fought hard. However, they had not experienced the strict training of the government army after all, and their combat skills and equipment were not as good as those of the government army. Under such intensity, they could no longer support them.

"I will eventually pierce the King of Zhongshan?" Li Kaiming's eyes were covered with bloodshots. He looked at the archer of the mansion who was climbing onto the earthen mountain like an ant colony and shooting downwards, and his face showed an unconcealed look of fatigue.

On the second day after the attack of the government army, Li Kaiming thought that the King of Zhongshan would suspend the attack and ordered the soldiers to rest, because it was obvious that many soldiers of the government army died due to fatigue. Taking the example of the past battles of the Zhongshan army, they had never experienced such a hard battle day and night attack on Yingpan.

According to Li Kaiming and others' estimates, the government army has reduced its personnel by nearly 3,000 people for several days, and at least four or five hundred people have died in battle. The army of 10,000 people, even the imperial guards, cannot bear the 30% casualties. The generals will be resentful, and soldiers will be tired of war, fear of war, and even hate the generals, and even shoot cold arrows behind the generals.

This is what many examples of wars have been written. Throughout history, there are very few troops who can sleeplessly in such hard struggles, experience severe casualties and undefeated morale.

What Li Kaiming was extremely depressed and unwilling to accept was that the government army in front of him was a legendary strong army, with 30% casualties, and the army still had the intention of fighting and attacking continuously.

In front of him, the northern camp had already formed an absolute suppression on the earthen camp. Before the camp, a large number of government commanders were swaying their hands, and like a forest, and before the camp, a large number of shield hands held high and shields. They fought hard for two days. The iron armor was damaged, bloody, and stained with mud. The gun hands and shield hands that had gathered more than 2,000 people were as solid as iron blocks and as solid as rocks. It was no longer something that Li Kaiming and his subordinates could resist.

The battle against Tushan was Li Kaiming's old subordinate who had been many years, and Liu Maoqi personally led it. During the battle, Li Kaiming saw with his own eyes that the opponent's long-term stinger was one person, two people stabbed, and the shield hand wandered in front of the two wings, defending the long-term stalkers from the horizontal formation, so that the raiders did not break the formation and harass the formation. The raiders continued to move forward. There was almost no gap between each raider. The raiders on the opposite side had extremely rich fighting experience and were also good at using short weapons to cooperate with the enemy. However, in front of the Zhongshan Prefecture Army, their array, fighting skills and experience in fighting were all like children's house play.

Fighting alone, many government troops have only been in the army for more than a year. Not to mention fighting with generals like Liu Maoqi, the soldiers of the government are mostly no match for the one-on-one battle with ordinary bandits. Most of the bandits are passers-by in Daibei and Qinfeng in Hedong, and there are also men from Yanzhao Central Plains on Hebei Road and Hebei Road. They are tall and powerful. They have fought for many years and have been constantly tempering their combat skills. They fight one-on-one. The soldiers of the government troops, mainly Fujian people, will never be their opponents.

But the formation was 100% complete, and there was almost no flaw. Many soldiers who held the slaughter and kept turning, slamming, and after each round of assassination, they brought out a rain of blood. Many bandits who were stabbed through the body died immediately. Those who were not dead became even more painful. The piercings were mostly in the chest and abdomen. The severe pain made people unable to even shout. They bowed to the ground, and the blood was sold out, rolling like hot fried prawns. It took a long time to die without expectation.

Under such a sharp attack, no bandits dared to resist head-on before the palace army formation.

Li Kaiming was stunned. Even though he was facing the most miserable failure on the one hand, he was shocked by this extremely aggressive formation. The tactics and tactics of bandits, including heavy archers and long-range ones, all originated from the Great Wei imperial guards. There were more than 100 people in the imperial guards, and more than 20 to thirty people were archers and half were crossbowmen.

The front line was lined up with long sieges, moving forward and constantly assassinated. One side of his side would hurt one person, and even if he was covered in blood, the array was cut one after another. The long siege array was always rushing forward. Many of them saw that the breakthrough of the camp gate was about to break through, so they simply threw away the long bow. Many of them didn't even wear iron helmets, wearing hats on their heads, leather armors that looked like armor, and mailed inside. They were very flexible and light. Most of them held horizontal swords and climbed up from both sides of the Beiying gate. When they encountered resistance bandits, they would wield their swords and fight. If they had no resistance, they would keep moving upwards. Then they came from the camp gate fence, or climbed over pointed wood. During the climbing process, many archers died in battle, or were stabbed to death by pickets when climbing, but more archers still climbed continuously.

Li Kaiming was surrounded by Liu Maoqi, who was injured on many sides. His face was yellow and his eyes were full of shock.

Hearing Li Kaiming's words, he also felt great

In the powerlessness in the words of the palm of the plate, Liu Maoqi tried hard to straighten his body and said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, we are indeed not the opponent of the King of Zhongshan... His mansion army is too strong, too strong, too strong. They are just trying to use us. We have more than 100,000 people in the South Camp of the Central Frontier, and they don't care at all. There are more than a thousand old brothers guarding the North Camp, and the rest are brave men among the miners. They have trained for two months and fought. They are considered elite, and they have the best use of geographical advantages, weapons, and armor, but they are useless... They fight like this, fight hard, fight day and night, and we are exhausted and penetrated..."

Li Kaiming listened quietly to Liu Maoqi's words. The camp gate had begun to collapse. The old brothers among the bandits could not hold back the formation. A large number of new miners and recruits began to turn around and escape, and they could not hold back at all. At most, one or two minutes, the entire Beiying would collapse.

Liu Zongdi, Li Kailiang and others had already run over, and everyone shouted: "The big palm plate, you have to tell the brothers to leave. If you continue to fight, the essence of the old camp will be broken here."

Li Kaiming smiled bitterly. In fact, after this battle, there were no more than 500 brothers from the old camp who could escape. This was the result of sending away some of them in advance.

The battle was extremely bad. Not only did his ambition to occupy the southeast was completely destroyed, but even his brothers who had been in the Central Plains for many years and never left him, with strong force and tenacious spirit, and were indomitable, also lost most of them.

After this battle, if Li Kaiming and others are broken, their backbone will be broken.

Before Liu Mao finished his seven words, he coughed twice and then said, "We can't fight with the Zhongshan Prefecture Army. Brother Li, you have to think about the way you will take in the future."

"Let's hide this and think about it slowly."

"Well." Liu Maoqi was in a heavy mood. A man like him was cruel and bloodthirsty, but he was not evil by nature. He was clear in rewards and punishments in the camp and acted fairly. Even when fighting, even when fighting, he even took over the people and killed innocent people when fighting for bandits. His original intention was to kill a peaceful world for the poor brothers.

This time he was defeated by the government army. What he felt was not only the strength of the Nan'an government army, but also the extremely firm belief of the soldiers of the government army and the determination to not fear death and injury. The ability of these good men and good men to be driven by the King of Zhongshan shows that the King of Zhongshan is outstanding.

Liu Maoqi's heart inevitably felt a little shaken.

Li Kaiming did not want to think about these things at this time, but comforted his deputy, then looked back at the camp gate, and ordered the central army composed of miners to fight in pain. One of his old brothers put on a hat, put on a blue robe, pretending to be Li Kaiming himself to be in charge. He and Liu Maoqi and others climbed up from behind the mountain. Surrounded by many old brothers, they took advantage of the twilight to rush to the depths of the mountains.

There are many slope fields blooming on the mountains near the county town, and the valleys are the villages. There are also many iron farm mines and blast furnaces. In the ordinary season, even when it is night, there will be fires of blast furnaces and bright lights everywhere. But at this time, it is dark and there are dark areas everywhere. The iron farms and villages that used to be wasted, like monsters with their mouths open.

Li Kaiming and others were walking in the mountains. They were extremely fast. Once the government army broke through the camp, it was likely to chase them along the way. No one dared to neglect the matter. Once they were trapped in a heavy siege, they would be in trouble.

Shortly after Li Kaiming and others escaped, the fake substitute was discovered. The morale of the bandits was completely overwhelmed, and the entire camp collapsed directly.
