The village walls that lost the protection of the trench were difficult to withstand the crazy impact of the armored horses. Under the fierce impact of the charge spear with the wolf teeth, in just a few breaths, the wooden village fences began to collapse and scatter. The dense rain of arrows could not stop the surging tide of soldiers. The gap changed from small to large, and soon became a huge gap. The square formation composed of light armored infantry quickly collapsed in front of the iron armored cavalry, which had absolute advantages in height, speed, weapons, and armor. The iron armored cavalry that had achieved a breakthrough immediately tore the infantry defense line like a wind swept away the remaining clouds, and rushed straight to the inner camp.

But soon they tasted the bitter fruit of underestimating the enemy. The broad camp seemed to be unprepared, but when the pits one after another were rushed in, they immediately exerted their miraculous effects. Due to the speed and the lack of mental preparation, the iron-armed cavalry pouring in fell into the pit scattered in the camp. The huge pressure immediately cut off the horse's hooves. The cavalry with heavy prices had difficulty moving and was soon killed by the Kaman soldiers waiting on the side. Then the armored cavalry rushed in could not control the speed, one wave higher than the other, forcing the cavalry in front to rush in and fell into the pit. Fortunately, the Mot light cavalry who was harassing from the other side saw that the situation was not good, forcibly broke through and inserted from the other side, and used the flexible advantages of the light cavalry to attack the Kaman infantry ambushed in the camp, and gradually reversed the unfavorable situation.

Then, the Gaoyue infantry who arrived quickly became the last bag of wool on the back of the camel, the camel. When the Gaoyue infantry pushed the village wall and rushed into the camp, Hoffman admitted that his battle had been weak. Although the pit he arranged in the camp successfully killed a large number of iron-armored cavalry of the Northwest Army, the adaptability of the enemy's light cavalry and the arrival of heavy infantry at the right time, the huge number difference and the restraint in the military branches could not be achieved by just a few pits. After professional study and training, he knew this well. The proper use of tactics could not reverse the huge strategic gap. This is an eternal truth.

With the addition of Gaoyue infantry to the battlefield, the Mot Light Cavalry also became more and more involved, while the heavy cavalry simply shrank back to a spacious place, avoiding the central area with dense pits, and gradually advancing around the camp for strangulation. The Kaman soldiers fully demonstrated their defense experience and perseverance, allowing Northwest Army and Cavalry to attack in turn, but their defense circle was still very close. However, with the gradual decrease in the number of soldiers and the huge physical energy consumption, the defense circle began to appear in the end, but this was already six hours after fierce battle.

When the last camp was broken, there were only less than 8,000 Kaman soldiers left in the entire camp's open space. The Kaman soldiers who had lost their cover were completely exposed to the blade of the armored cavalry. Only a few consecutive charges were enough to defeat the exhausted but still struggled to maintain the Kaman defense circle. Out of respect for this team, Shanzhu and Mao Jin issued a letter of persuasion to the Kamans after discussion. After a debate, the Kamans finally agreed to the request of the two. Of course, this was the last order left by the commander of the Corps Hoffman after suicide.

When the battle between the Northwest Army and the Kaman people ended, it was also when the Taiping defenders of Pinglu Mansion opened the city to surrender. Shanzhu and Mao Jin were very disgusted with the behavior of the Taiping defenders of Pinglu Mansion. However, Li Wufeng once issued strict orders to strictly prohibit any discrimination against the Taiping surrendered army. Therefore, even though the two were unwilling to do so, they had to accept the surrender of each other with a smile.

At this point, the entire Pinglu Mansion was restored, and the Empire's Double Dragon Playing Pearl Flag and the Northwest Army's Golden Pendant Flag were flying over Pinglu Mansion City at the same time.

Of course, Hurley didn't know that his friend and colleague had already died. At this time, he was proud to talk and laugh with the Third Corps and the commander of the Eighth Corps. The easy capture of Yulin Prefecture made everyone feel relieved and had completed the set initial goal. The Ninth Corps and the Royal Guards had also joined forces with the Pooles to conquer Yunzhong Prefecture.

The Tanghe people's troops in the Yanyun area retreated and moved eastward. The entire Yunzhong Prefecture had fallen into the hands of the coalition forces. The two sides took Laoenhe as the boundary, and the Hebei returned to Kaman in the west and Puer in the east. Yunzhong Prefecture City was given to the Puer people under the rotation of the Prime Minister, which made the Puer people ecstatic. This was the first time in hundreds of years that the Puer people occupied a decent city, and it was a city of the Tanghe people! It is said that in return, the Puer people would put pressure on the Duodun people, demanding that the Duodun people not support the Northern Division of the Tanghe Empire headed by Situ Tai, and even persuaded the Duodun people to form a coalition with the two countries to jointly divide the Tanghe Empire.

But Hurley is not considering these things now. As a vanguard officer, the front of his Fourth Corps had reached the central part of Qinghe. The news came not optimistic. The city guards of the Tanghe people had already defeated the Taiping Army entrenched in Qinghe Prefecture and controlled Qinghe Prefecture. They are now actively repairing the city walls and repairing defensive facilities. It is obviously aimed at his own plan to go south. It seems that the Tanghe people really want to use Qinghe Prefecture as a bridgehead to block the southward movement of its own army. This Qinghe Prefecture is something that the Prime Minister is bound to win. General Nick also sent nearly four corpses, including his Fourth Corps, to come, and he was clearly determined to take Qinghe Prefecture.

Hurley is not clear about the combat effectiveness of the City Guard Corps, but as the two direct legions of the Tanghe Empire, its combat effectiveness will definitely not be bad. It will definitely not be easy to win this battle. Fortunately, siege and the camp have always been the strength of the Kaman infantry. Moreover, according to the information, the south city of Qinghe Prefecture and the Xicheng walls were destroyed to varying degrees. It is said that the heavy defensive weapons on the walls of the four cities were completely destroyed, which is a rare good news for his side. Although the Taiping Cult is not good, Hurley still thanks them from the bottom of his heart. No matter what, their actions are enough to save the lives of thousands of Kaman soldiers. On the contrary, the soldiers of the Tanghe people will pay an equal amount of life to block their attack.

"Reporting the commander of the Corps, the second light cavalry team, the third, fourth and fifth infantry teams have arrived at the outskirts of Qinghefu City, and found that the Tanghe people are organizing manpower to repair the Qinghefu City walls, the second light cavalry team has launched an attack to destroy the enemy's repair operation, three infantry teams have been lined up to meet the enemy, and the first cavalry teams have also arrived later. Now wait for your instructions." A cavalry rushed over, and the horse has not yet stood firm. The messenger turned over and dismounted with the horse and ran two steps tightly, standing on the side with a standard military salute, and Hongsheng reported.

"Well, order the first cavalry and ten thousand cavalry team to prepare for combat to prevent the enemy from sneak attacks. The second light cavalry and ten thousand cavalry team to strengthen harassment. The enemy must not be freed to repair the city wall. The other three infantry and ten thousand cavalry teams can set up camps and strengthen vigilance to prevent the enemy from stealing the camp. Tell them that the central army will arrive soon." Hull used his eyes to consult the two corps commanders beside him. Seeing that both of them agreed to their arrangements, he waved his hand and signaled the commander to leave.

General Nick's plan was very rigorous and meticulous. Yulin Prefecture fell quickly under the attack of the Second Corps, leaving only one 10,000 guards. The remaining 60,000 troops followed the other three corps south. Attacking Qinghe Prefecture was the highlight of this southern battle, and the heavy responsibility of commanding this battle was handed over to Hurley. Although the Third Corps was ranked before its own corps, Viscount Billy was the new commander, and his qualifications and combat experience were far inferior to him. Needless to say, the Eighth Corps, the newly established corps, the purpose of letting them go to the front line this time was to use this battle to train them. Hurley could feel the heavy burden on his shoulders.

"Two corps commanders, it seems that the Tanghe people want to have a real battle with us in Qinghe Mansion. Fortunately, we have ambushed the Taiping Tribute. Even so, I think this battle is probably extremely tragic." Hurley's eyes turned around the faces of the two colleagues and re-sented to the south. "We have never contacted the Tanghe people's city guard corps, and we don't know what the details of this team are. If we can know the opponent's background, perhaps the pressure on our battle will be much smaller."

"Mr. Hurley, this city guard army is not about to be with the Taiping army of Qinghe Prefecture for a year or two. Judging from the performance of the Taiping army of Yulin Prefecture, the combat effectiveness of the Taiping army is not worth mentioning at all. If the city guard army of Tanghe people has been tug-of-war with the Taiping army for so long in a small Qinghe Prefecture, their combat effectiveness is probably not much higher, right?" The person who spoke was Viscount Cherifu, the commander of the Eighth Corps, and a nobleman who was transferred from the deputy commander of the Sixth Corps.

"Mr. Cherif, this question is not that simple. The leader of the City Guard Corps of the Tanghe people is an extremely cunning person. It is said that the reason why he is unwilling to fight the Taiping Army is because it involves power disputes within the Tanghe people's royal family. I don't know the specific situation here, but one thing is certain, this is definitely not a mob. You can think about it, why they have been entangled with the Taiping Army for so long and have no result, but once they are serious, they drive the Taiping Army out of Qinghe in just a few days?" Hurley shook his head, and he disagreed with his colleagues.
