Just as Zhu Ci Xin walked out of the camp, the carrier pigeon landed in the pigeon cage of the breeding farm.
Gugugu ~~~
A farmer immediately ran over to Zhu Ci with a messenger pigeon.
" Your Majesty, messenger pigeon, intelligence!"
Zhu Ci took the messenger pigeon and took off a piece of silk paper from his feet.
"50 miles north, the army that discovered the 'King' banner, 200 people!”
Zhou Xunye became excited.
"Your Majesty, the banner with the word 'Wang' must be General Wang Biao, Dong Maiguo's trusted aide! This person was vicious and merciless. He was the one who killed more than a dozen righteous men who fled from the Nanjing government!”
Zhu Ci Nao was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He didn't expect that these guys were already thinking of surrendering even though they were so far away from Slave Jian.
"Wang Biao, right? It's a good time to test the edge of my army! Pu Zhenguo, go!"
1,300 soldiers marched out of the barracks in an orderly manner.
200 strong archers, 200 light cavalrymen, 300 swordsmen, 300 gunners, and 300 machetemen were all on foot.
As the Ferghana horses in the stables had yet to be slaughtered, the light cavalry followed the infantry.
The one at the front was a sword player, and the one at the back was a strong archer.
The spearmen were in second place. The red-tasseled spears in their hands were five meters long.
The light cavalry carried light crossbows on their backs and held long-handled podaos in their hands. He followed behind the Horse Slayer.
The horse-killing hand was equipped with a Zhanmadao.
The Zhanmadao was a Mo Dao of the Tang Dynasty that had been lost. As long as it was used properly, it could split a horse and horse.
Fifty li away, both sides were marching forward.
They met at a distance of thirty miles. It was obvious that Zhu Ci Xin's army was moving much faster.
"Your Majesty, the enemy is less than a mile away!”
Looking at Pu Zhenguo, who was in a hurry and gasping for breath, Zhu Cixi patted Pu Zhenguo's shoulder.
"You're the general, try to command!”
Pu Zhenguo calmed down and looked at Wang Biao.
"Sword players, form a shield wall! Spearmen, advance! Light cavalry, left flank, right flank. The strong archers lined up behind the sword players.”
"Light Cavalry Commander, Horse Slayer Commander, listen up. After the detour is successful, fire the red signal arrow!”
"Understood!"
"The red signal arrow is the horn for the attack! At that time, all the tribes must fight to the death!"
"Understood!"
Zhu Ciao observed silently and found that Pu Zhenguo's commanding ability was very strong.
"Alright, let's take action immediately!" Zhu Ci gave the general order.
Although the light cavalry did not have horses, they were very fast.
It was noon. Wang Biao took off his heavy armor and squatted in a cool place to rest with the soldiers.
The weather on Qiongzhou Island was very hot all year round. There was no winter to speak of.
"Damn it, why isn't the scout back yet?”
Vice General Dong Chengdu squatted beside a tree and ate dried salted fish.
"How can it be so fast? It would probably take another hour to explore five miles ahead!”
The five scouts swaggered along the road, looking left and right.
Hu ~~~
The strong archer shot out a wave of arrows. The five scouts did not have time to react and became porcupines.
"Step forward!"
Five sword-shield wielding soldiers went up and slashed at the necks of the five scouts on the ground, completely ending them.
Whoosh ~
A red signal arrow flew up from the sky.
"Move out!" Zhu Ci Xin shouted.
The soldiers who were squatting on the ground all stood up, and the flag of the Ming Empire was erected.
Zhu Ci Xin was in a very good mood. The resources of the entire island would be his. When the time came, he would upgrade the town, build thousands of warships, and have 100,000 or 200,000 soldiers land in the Ming Empire.
Thinking that he was about to become the savior of the Great Ming Empire, Zhu Ci Xin laughed proudly.
Looking at Zhu Ci, who was wearing a patched dragon robe, Wang Biao was so scared that he trembled.
"Dong Chengdu, look at that guy. Doesn't he look like Emperor Chongzhen?”
Dong Chengdu took a deep breath as he sized up Zhu Cixi, who was standing in front of the formation with his hands behind his back.
"He looks like Emperor Chongzhen, but Emperor Chongzhen isn't this young!”
Hoho ~~
The sword-shieldbearer tapped his shield with his podao and slowly pushed forward.
The spearman held his five-meter-long spear at a 45-degree angle and slowly advanced toward the enemy.
Two hundred strong archers drew their bows and arrows, and a dense rain of arrows flew towards Wang Biao's two hundred soldiers.
The arrows of the soldiers wearing tattered mandarin duck battle jackets easily penetrated their cotton armor.
Before the soldiers could react, their sinful lives ended.
Wang Biao would never have thought that he would encounter the Ming Empire's regular Wei Suo Army here.
"Damn it, what's going on? Stop fighting, we are also the Ming Empire's Qiongzhou Prefecture Army!”
"Bullshit!" Zhou Xunye shouted when he was less than a hundred steps away.
Wang Biao was shocked to see Zhou Xunye.
"Did you bring the Ming army?"
"General Wang, you followed the governor, betrayed the righteous men who rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and exchanged letters with Slave Jian. You scum of the Ming Empire deserve to be killed!”
"Do you see who this is? Emperor Chongzhen's eldest son, Zhu Ciyan, had already proclaimed himself emperor! All of you, quickly die!"
Wang Biao and Dong Chengdu were deeply aware of their sins.
"Fake! Brothers, kill them and claim credit from His Majesty!”
Wang Biao and Dong Chengdu were wearing armor, and the arrows only left small dents on them.
The other soldiers didn't have the chance to get close to the guards, and a large number of them died.
The surrounding soldiers gradually closed the encirclement.
Less than a hundred soldiers were left holding their rusty swords and trembling.
Wang Biao and Dong Chengdu couldn't understand why there were so many Great Ming soldiers. The key was that these soldiers had brand new weapons and armor, and they looked like they were invincible elites.
The huge aura suppressed Wang Biao's subordinates so much that they did not dare to take a step forward.
"Charge! Traitors, leave no one alive!" Zhu Ci Xi received a five-meter-long red tasseled spear from a spearman.
Seeing the emperor personally enter the battle formation, the spearmen held their five-meter-long red-tasseled spears and quickly stabbed at the enemy.
The enemy's weapons could not reach the spearmen at all.
The remaining hundred soldiers were covered in bloody holes and fell to the ground.
Wang Biao and Dong Chengdu looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
