Pu Zhenguo and Ma Zhanshan were so angry that they slammed their fists on the table.
"Motherf * cker, we came all the way here to fight. As the local officials of Zhaoqing Prefecture, you actually want to escape. His Majesty said that we have the right to kill those who surrender and those who escape! Even if it's King Gui, I'll kill him!"
The Gui King was depressed. If he had known earlier, he would have left Zhaoqing Manor earlier.
"General is right. We must fight! Therefore, I request the general to immediately go out and defend against the enemy outside Zhaoqing City!”，Ding Kuichu slyly sneered.
Pu Zhenguo and Ma Zhanshan did not have any good expressions towards Ding Kuichu.
The moment they were summoned by the system, they had already been implanted with the memories of this era.
They knew that Ding Kuichu was a cowardly fellow.
"Ma Zhanshan, leave 5,000 peasants and half of the supplies to guard the city. You take 5,000 heavy cavalrymen, and I'll take 1,300 soldiers to fight!”
"Leave the city to fight? General, you can't. Our Ming Empire's army is simply courting death if we fight Slave Jian in the wilderness! It was said that if there were less than 10,000 Slaves, they would be invincible!”，Lu Da stopped Pu Zhenguo.
Pu Zhenguo and Ma Zhanshan looked at each other, their faces unusually ugly.
"Even if Slave Jian has a million people, we will still fight!”
With this order, the 1,300 infantrymen, 5,000 heavy cavalry, and 5,000 farmers drove 500 carriages out of the city.
Many of the citizens in the city were crying.
"Don't go, Slave Jian is very cruel!”，An old woman stood by the street, trying to stop the army from leaving the city.
The commoners looked at the determined soldiers and felt very melancholic and sad.
This was the first army that distributed food to them and did not occupy the houses as camps.
The commoners did not want to send a troop of soldiers who loved and cared for the commoners to their deaths.
Pu Zhenguo helped the old lady up.
"Auntie, we left the city to kill Slave Jian to protect you! Just wait for our good news!"
1,300 infantrymen led by Pu Zhenguo left the city first.
Ma Zhanshan's 5,000 heavy cavalrymen also followed him out of the city.
"General Ma Zhanshan, you lead the heavy cavalry to the back of Li Chengdong's army. I'll be responsible for attracting the enemy from the front!”
Ma Zhanshan frowned.
"That won't do. Your 1,300 men won't be able to stop the enemy!”
"Don't worry, 1,300 people will definitely attract Li Chengdong's army!”
1,300 soldiers were in formation 30 miles away from Zhaoqing City.
Hundreds of flags of the Ming Empire fluttered in the wind.
Li Chengdong was in the commander's tent, preparing for the attack on Zhaoqing City.
A messenger rolled and crawled into the commander's tent.
"General, the enemy is twenty miles ahead and has formed a formation!”
"What is it? The Zhaoqing Manor's army had left the city? I want to see how strong these soldiers, who are called heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals by the surrounding people, are.”
"General, do we need to make a detailed battle plan?”
"The army of the Great Ming Empire has already left the city. What else is there to plan? He ordered all the troops to charge over and not leave a single blade of grass behind!”
Li Chengdong, who had won many battles in a row, was now arrogant to the point of being insufferably arrogant.
"Where is the enemy's formation?”
"Outside Dinghu County, northeast of Zhaoqing Prefecture!”
"How many cavalrymen do we have?"
"Six thousand, but our cavalry is too weak. It would be great if we had cavalry with white flags to help!”，Li Chengdong's son said.
Li Chengdong frowned.
"Without the Eight Banners Army, do you think we Green Army soldiers can't fight? Send scouts to investigate the enemy's situation!”
In less than two hours, the scout returned!
"General, the enemy only has a thousand infantrymen!”
Li Chengdong's face was gloomy and furious.
"Set off immediately. Commander Chen Jia, take six thousand cavalrymen and quickly take down the enemies outside Dinghu County!”
" Damn it!" Li Chengdong was furious." We've been waiting here for more than two hours. If we had known that there were only a thousand people, we would've killed them!"”
Commander Chen Jia led six thousand Green Camp cavalry and charged towards Pu Zhenguo.
"Report, a large number of cavalrymen have been discovered and are advancing towards our defensive line!”
Pu Zhenguo sat on the temporary command platform with a serious expression.
"It's finally here! He ordered the spearmen to get into formation in front, the machetemen to get into formation in the back, and the machetemen to protect the strong archers. They were to get into formation around the command platform! Light cavalry use light crossbows to harass enemy cavalry from a distance. Close combat is not allowed!”
The soldiers who received the order immediately took action.
The 200 light cavalrymen of the Guard were outside the formation, ready to attack the enemy at any time.
200 strong archers and 300 swordsmen from the Wei Suo were lined up 200 meters in front of the command platform.
The 300 gunners and 300 soldiers were at the front, 250 meters away from the command platform.
The 5,000 peasants spread out the 500 carriages and surrounded the command platform, forming a huge circular formation.
On the commanding platform was Pu Zhenguo's general, Da Tao.
Two groups of messengers, a total of twenty people, were waving their flags on the high platform under Pu Zhenguo's command.
The platform was three feet high, and they could observe the situation from afar.
" Discovered a large number of cavalrymen!"
Wuwuwu ~~
The horn sounded.
The soldiers turned their heads from time to time to observe the flag on the high platform.
"Order the spearmen and the machetemen to form a barricade formation to face the enemy!”
The messenger on the high platform kept waving the Great Tao.
The spearman general and the saber-wielding general saw Da Tao's order.
"Horse barricade formation, set up!"
Hu ~~~~
The five-meter-long red-tasseled spear and the two-meter-long Mo saber were all pointed at the enemy cavalry at a forty-five-degree angle.
Phew ~
Commander Chen Jia reined in his horse.
"Motherf * cker, although these soldiers are few, their killing intent is very strong!”
"Commander, they look like elites. These guards don't seem to have fear in their eyes! We've been killing our way here like we were chopping melons and vegetables, but it seems like we've never met such a calm opponent!”，Deputy Commander Tong Yangcheng reined in his horse.
Tong Yangcheng was Tong Yangjia's younger brother. Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong had entered the Guangzhou government at about the same time.
Tong Yangjia was currently following beside Duoduo, resting in Guangzhou Prefecture.
