Chapter 177: Burning Joint Venture
Looking at the Qing soldiers who were forced out of the camp by him, disheveled, with incomplete weapons and weapons, shivering in the cold wind, waiting for his attack, his soldiers once again put up the knocked down fences, and faced them like this, Lu Mou laughed. Laughing: "Master Zhang's method of forcing the camp into formation is really mysterious. Just now, we easily occupied the enemy camp.

Zhang Huangyan said: "It's not like the soldiers trained by the prince are good. Outside the camp, the soldier who was ambushed at night had his back broken by a war horse. He didn't say a word and didn't expose our lurking. He is really amiable and admirable. Only you can train him." Only the soldiers who come out can carry out this kind of warfare, other soldiers cannot."

Lu Mou nodded proudly: "I will remember that soldier Qiu Dayun. I will regard him as a hero and launch a movement to learn from him in the entire army. What should we do next?"

Zhang Huangyan smiled: "When the enemy is forced out of bed by us, they will definitely take back the camp at all costs. Because their clothes, food and grass are all here."

"Then what do we do next?"

Zhang Huangyan said calmly: "We will stick to the camp and fight to the death."

Lu Mou smiled evilly and shook his head: "The battle between trapped beasts will be a decisive battle. Why should we fight with a group of trapped beasts and an enemy with more than twice our strength?"

"What does the prince mean-"

"I have dragged in the artillery, two hundred rapid-fire Franco machine steel cannons. I want to block the enemy. Then -" turned around and called the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division: "I said Biaozi, I don't think there is any need here. Come up to you. Go and drive all the cattle and sheep they brought from the Qing soldiers' camp back to our camp. In the evening, I will kill the cattle and sheep to reward the three armies."

Division commander Wang Debiao received the order loudly and rushed away with his brothers.

Hauge led a large group of troops and rushed out five miles, stopped in front of Dahei Mountain, then rectified the team, waiting for the Ming army to chase them out and give them a heavy blow.

This inexplicable battle was fought so cowardly. He lost his camp inexplicably, and he must avenge this arrow.

After finishing the reorganization, Haug and Jilhalang were shocked when they looked at their captured camp.

The Ming army did not follow common sense and send troops out of the camp to continue attacking them. Instead, they raised the fence again and prepared to occupy their camp and defend it.

At this time, looking at his own army, there were more than 100,000 troops, all of whom were disheveled and in a state of embarrassment. Some of them only had underwear on them, and some even had no equipment on their war horses.

Everyone was shivering in confusion in the howling north wind in the early morning.

At this time, the two men came to their senses and retreated again and again, leaving all the supplies in their camp.

If this continues, within an hour or two, a large number of hungry and cold soldiers will freeze to death.

No, we must counterattack and take back our camp.

Haug stood in front of the team and shouted: "Brothers, our camp has been occupied by the enemy. Now we have no food in our stomachs and no clothes on our bodies. Instead of dying of cold and hunger here, it is better to fight to get back to the camp. Follow me and grab Camp, kill the Han dogs.”

This time, faced with the choice of freezing to death or killing the enemy, the Qing army and the Mongols really burst out with unprecedented fighting power. They shouted slogans of killing Han dogs and launched a desperate attack on their own camp, ah, now the enemy's camp.

The two hundred French cannons began to fire, and the countless lead and stones from the shotguns were like iron brooms, sweeping away batches of Qing soldiers and cavalry, and blood and flesh flew everywhere for a while.

The power of rapid fire erects a barrier of death in front of the enemy's charge.

However, after defeating one group and then another, the Qing soldiers who had been forced into a dead end, regardless of casualties, charged and charged non-stop like moths to a flame.

Finally, they rushed to the fence, and in the gap of the fence, the long and terrifying Luoyang shovel of the soldiers of the Fourth Army stretched out, impaling each war horse or Qing soldier under the horse. In the gap in the fence, the terrifying five-eyed machine fired life-threatening bullets. With every gunshot, an enemy would be killed.

Throw an explosive pack over and it will blow up.

But the enemy still charged desperately.

Lu Mou asked anxiously: "Have the enemy's cattle and sheep driven back to our camp?"

A soldier rushed to report: "Your Majesty, all the cattle and sheep have entered our camp." "Okay, let's fly together."

"Here." "Throw all the gunpowder from the cannon onto the enemy's tents, and stuff a small explosive bag into each tent. Quick."

Qi Fei led 20,000 brothers through the tent to implement the plan.

After a while, Qi Fei ran back: "Your Majesty, everything is ready."

Lu Mou immediately ordered, "Abandon the cannons and retreat into the tent area."

The tent area is criss-crossed with tents, just like the streets of villages and towns. Once you enter the tent area, it's like a street fight.

Boom, the fence was knocked over in pieces, and enemy cavalry rushed in like a tide.

The Ming army fought and fled, gradually withdrawing from the tent area. Just when they were about to leave the camp and a large number of Qing soldiers occupied the tent area, Lu Mou shouted: "Light the fire."

At the command, explosive bags were thrown out one by one and exploded immediately in the tent area. The thick smoke and fire instantly ignited the gunpowder that had been scattered on the tent. As soon as the tent burned, it immediately ignited the explosive bags in the tent and exploded. With a sound, the tent with flames was lifted into the sky, and then fell again, igniting another tent.

Continuous explosions set the camp on fire in the blink of an eye, and with the help of the howling north wind, the Qing army's camp became a sea of ​​fire in the blink of an eye. The Qing soldiers who rushed in could only fight and struggle in this sea of ​​smoke and fire.

Lu Mou and others who ran all the way to observe the fire were roasted by the flames and kept retreating and retreating. They no longer felt the heat until they were more than three miles away from the sea of ​​​​fire.

But Jierhalang and Hauge, who were supervising the battle behind them, felt as cold as ice under such heat. I didn't even feel my beard being burnt.

It was over, everything was reduced to ashes, and at the same time, countless soldiers were burned to death.

Cao Cao's Chibi in the Three Kingdoms and Liu Bei's Burning Company in Baidi City are nothing more than that.

There is nothing left, only these 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers who have no food in their bellies and only the clothes on their backs. A hundred thousand troops have lost more than half before the actual battle begins. How can we fight this battle?
A Mongolian Taiji asked: "Two princes, do you still want to fight this war?"

Hauge and Jilharang looked at each other: "The most urgent task is how to fill our stomachs and find clothes to keep warm."

No problem filling your stomach. In the sea of ​​fire, countless horses were burned to death and scorched.

But the problem is that the Mongols and Manchus regard war horses as brothers, and their beliefs do not eat horse meat.

What should we do? Leave this sad place and find the Mongolian tribes to collect cattle and sheep.

Fortunately, the huge sea of ​​​​fire in the military camp cut off the Ming army who might have beaten the drowned dog, and Hauge was able to escape unscathed.

The fire burned for half a day and was completely extinguished in the afternoon. All supplies of the Qing army were reduced to nothing.

In this battle, an astonishing more than 70,000 Manchu and Mongolian troops were annihilated and burned to death, which shows that fire and water are ruthless.

The Ming army suffered less than three thousand casualties.

It's just a pity that the two hundred cannons, although the enemy did not take them away, were all deformed by the barbecue, which shows the fierceness of the fire.

There was no need to search the enemy camp, so Lu Mou ordered the slaughter of cattle and sheep, and the whole army and ten thousand civilians had a feast. Then the next day, all the cavalry flew to cover the army and began to pursue the enemy.

We must beat up the drowned dog.
