I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 429 Great Rout!
"Is this An Bangyan's body?"

Qi Jizu and Wang Jianzhong looked at the burnt black bodies among the crowd, and their hearts were full of doubts.

"Don't worry, General. My subordinates have repeatedly confirmed with An Bangyan's bodyguards. They said this is An Bangyan, and they confirmed it correctly.

He knew at the time that he could not run away, so he did not escape. Now it appears that he set himself on fire and died.Before he died, he also ordered them to kill An Wei and She Shehui, whose bodies were nearby. "

After hearing the confirmation from the people around them, the two nodded, and then turned their attention to the two corpses, one large and one small, next to An Bangyan.

Presumably these are the bodies of An Wei and She Shehui they mentioned.

Seeing this, they were relieved. Through the servants of An Mansion, they knew that An Bangyan took these two people away when he ran from the main hall.Moreover, some people saw the three of them not coming out after entering the ancestral hall, which was enough to prove the identities of these corpses.

"Collect these three corpses and quickly send people to transport them to the camp outside the city. At the same time, let everyone spread the news in Zhijin Pass. Now Zhang Yanfang is probably the most eager to get this news."

The two men breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that their mission was completed.

But the fighting in the city is not over yet.

According to the arrangements of Yang Zhaoji and others, Guizhou Deputy General Zhang Yanfang and Zhenwu Army Yongwei Battalion Staff General Li Siwu were leading more than [-] elite troops to the rebel camp in the north.

There are [-] elite rebels over there, and only by defeating them can victory be truly established.

Qi and Wang also knew the importance of this battle, so when they saw that An Bangyan had been killed, they did not dare to stay, and quickly prepared their troops and horses, and continued heading north to support Zhang Yanfang.
-
Just as Qi and Wang thought, the war at Zhijin Pass was not over yet, and the fight was very difficult.

It's just that this difficulty is not for the officers and soldiers, but for the rebels.

Now An Wugong was already in dire straits. He couldn't figure out how the officers and soldiers broke through the city. Could it be that He Zhongwei surrendered to the enemy?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but agree with this idea. This He Zhongwei really had rebellious intentions, otherwise the army would not have broken through the city so easily.

But the thought was fleeting as he had more important things to do now.

"Order Pu'an to lead his troops to block the officers and soldiers, and not to retreat even half a step."

"Luo Wenliang, why hasn't the assembly been completed yet? Hurry up and hurry up!"

······
A series of orders came out of An Wugong's mouth, but it seemed to be of no use, because the shouts of killing from the south were getting closer and closer to the Chinese army's main tent.

"Lord General, keep the green hills here, don't worry about running out of firewood. The officers and soldiers are obviously well prepared. Now there are fires in Zhijin Pass, and the Ming army is attacking the camp. Our army hastily fought and cannot stop the Ming army at all. Why? For this plan, please withdraw your troops quickly and make another plan."

At this time, the deputy general beside him saw the flames rising into the sky in the south, and the shouts of killing were getting closer and closer. It was obvious that there was no way to save the situation.So he couldn't help but suggest to An Wugong that it would be better to retreat.

But An Wugong turned a deaf ear to these words, and Quan pretended not to hear them, and turned to ask the guards around him another question.

"Have the people who were sent to An Mansion to inquire about the news come back?"

"There is no news yet."

Seeing An Wugong's reaction, the deputy general knew what he meant. He clearly couldn't let go of "King Luodian".

But when he looked into the Zhijin Pass in the south, he couldn't help but begin to wonder whether King Luodian could leave.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Continuous gunshots sounded from the ranks of the Ming army. As soon as the sound rang out, dozens of rebels who had just assembled in the chaos on the opposite side fell to the ground.When the others saw this, they immediately dispersed. Even if Pu'an and others behind them sent people to supervise the battle, it would not help.

"Don't run, they only have one round of shooting, just rush over and win."

Looking at the Chinese speech of the rebel general opposite, Li Siwu shook his head contemptuously.What they said is indeed true. When attacking the enemy camp at night, the fire gun soldiers are indeed not suitable for three-stage or four-stage attacks, but this does not mean that they cannot fight in close combat.

Seeing that there were still some soldiers on the opposite side, the supervising team behind them killed a few deserters and gradually stabilized their position.Li Siwu waved his hand, and the deputy general behind him immediately took the order.Shouted loudly:

"Abandon the blunderbuss, draw the sword, form a formation and move forward!"

According to Qi Jiguang's Art of War, all musketeers are equipped with leather armor and waist knives. They can also fight in close combat when necessary, and now is the necessary time.

Upon hearing the order, the cannon players from the Yongwei camp immediately put away their cannons, carried them familiarly on their backs, and at the same time drew out their sabers, and then formed a formation of five or five.

The formation of the entire Yongwei battalion also quickly shrunk, and then began to slowly kill towards the rebels on the opposite side.

Pu'an on the opposite side was immediately shocked when he heard this. He never expected that the Ming army on the opposite side actually gave up their cannons and formed a formation to kill them. Didn't this give them a chance?

When he thought of this, he immediately shouted to the people below:
"The Ming army is all gunmen and cannot withstand close combat. Don't be afraid to form a formation quickly."

But the current situation did not give them any chance to breathe. As soon as he finished speaking, bursts of cheers suddenly came from the right side of the camp, including shouts from the officers and soldiers, and there were many words in it for everyone present to hear. Very real.

"The traitor on the opposite side has escaped. Kill me and don't let anyone go!"

"Whoever descends shall be spared death!"

When Pu'an heard this, he was immediately shocked. On his right were more than 2 Miao soldiers commanded by General Liu Ren. Even if they had just entered the battle in a hurry, they would not have been defeated so quickly.

But he didn't have time to think too much now, because the officers and soldiers in his camp were already in a state of confusion when they heard this. Even the Miao soldiers could not defeat the officers and soldiers, and they were still waiting here to die.

Pu'an no longer wanted to resist, but if he didn't run now, he might not be able to run either. He had to resist a wave of attacks from the opposite army first.

"Whoever dares to retreat will be killed immediately!"

When Pu'an saw this, he was heartbroken and immediately asked the war team to follow him immediately and stabilize the position first.

But at this time, the officers and soldiers on the opposite side seemed to have heard something, and there was a sudden movement and noise.Just when he was confused, bursts of shouts suddenly sounded from the opposite side.

"Anfu has been destroyed, Anbangyan and Anwei are dead!"

"An Bangyan is dead! Our army is victorious!"

"An Bangyan is dead, if you don't surrender immediately, anyone who violates this will be shot to death!"

When Pu'an heard this, his mood suddenly fell into the ice cellar, and he was done thinking.The soldiers and horses under his command were even more so when they heard this. They didn't care about the supervising team and either ran away or put down their soldiers and horses and surrendered.

Pu'an also knew that the fight could not be fought, and it was better to retreat first for the present plan, so he quickly turned his horse around and rushed towards the Chinese army's tent.

At this time, An Wugong also knew the news, and he was already confused and didn't know what to do.
