"Superintendent! Give the order!"

Ma Degong, Qiu Yue, Weng Zhiqi and other Huang Degong generals knelt down on one knee and pleaded with their fists clasped.

Even Zhang Ming, the deputy general of Supervisor Biao, also begged, "Supervisor, if you keep cutting off, you will suffer chaos instead!"

Seeing this, Gao Douguang knew that he had to make a decision, otherwise the people in front of him might leave him alone.

"Ma Degong, Qiu Yue!"

When they heard their names being called, both of them felt anxious, but they still responded: "The general is here!"

"Quickly rectify the cavalry, entangle with the thieves and cavalry, and prevent them from pursuing our army!"

Gao Douguang still had some sense and did not give the cavalry a fatal mission. Ma Degong and Qiu Yue both breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "The last general takes the order!"

"Tian Xiong!"

"The general is here!"

"Order Zhang Jie and Huang Ming to retreat to the camp. Your headquarters and I, Supervisor Biao, abandon their baggage and retreat immediately towards Zhu Gao!"

Gao Douguang's words were more of an exchange than an order.

Didn’t you, Tian Xiong, yell to retreat quickly? There can’t be no one to take the throne, right? If you want to retreat with your headquarters, you have to try to convince others to stay behind!

Tian Xiongyi gritted his teeth and said: "The last general takes orders!"

"Send someone to give Chen Xiance an order to sink some boats and block the river!"

"Yes!"

Gao Douguang finally said to Zhang Ming: "Lead Du Biao out of the east gate of the camp and evacuate along the river."

"Where's the baggage?"

"We don't need any more baggage, just withdraw."

"As ordered!"

···

After seeing the remaining more than a thousand cavalry retreating into the Ming army's infantry formation, the Xiaoqiwei stopped pursuing them.

However, many reconnaissance cavalry were sent out to monitor the movements of the Ming army's formation and camp.

Shen Wandeng, Yang Kuiwu, and Li Dingguo were actually quite curious about how the Ming army would respond to the current situation.

After much deliberation, Li Dingguo felt that the Ming army had no choice but to abandon their chariots and protect their commanders.

Sure enough, soon the valiant cavalry guards who were monitoring the east came over to report that a large group of officers and soldiers were leaving the camp eastward.

After Li Dingguo sent someone to report to Liu Sheng, he immediately led his cavalry over to look for an opportunity to intercept.

However, they were restrained by seven or eight hundred Ming cavalry and could only monitor the evacuation of the Ming army in the camp...

When Liu Sheng learned that the Ming army was withdrawing, he immediately ordered the entire army to speed up.

But the pace of the infantry's advance is just that - at this time, most of the rebel infantry are wearing armor, and they need to march in an organized manner, so it is impossible for all of them to run wildly.

At least Liu Sheng felt there was no need to take such risks.

Today, the rebel army can rely on guns and artillery to defeat the elite Ming army, and they can do so in the future. There is no shortage of opportunities to win battles.

Therefore, by the time the main force of the rebel army arrived two or three miles in front of the Ming army's camp, most of the Ming army had already withdrawn, leaving only three to four thousand people behind the camp.

Liu Sheng ordered the army artillery to start bombarding the Ming army camp, while other ministries continued to advance.

After the army expansion in early March, Liu Sheng equipped each brigade of the standing army with thirty army cannons, and the Guards army had as many as fifty cannons!

Therefore, although the total number of "Hongyi cannons" from the Guards and the Sixth Brigade that came to support Gucheng this time was not as many as the hundreds mistakenly thought by the Ming army, there were still as many as eighty!

The Ming army set up camp in a scale of 20,000 people, and the area was not too large.

When being bombarded by eighty army artillery shells, the people inside felt like explosions were happening in all directions, as if they might be hit by artillery shells at any time.

The Ming troops of Zhang Jie and Huang Ming were given the task of staying behind in the camp, and their morale was already low. Fortunately, as Huang Degong's subordinates, their obedience and discipline were higher than those of other Ming troops. If they were replaced by other officers and soldiers, I was afraid that I would collapse when I got the final assignment.

Although they followed the order and cut off their rear, they were heavily bombarded by enemy artillery. They were unable to fight back and were not far from collapse.

A general braved artillery fire and came to the guerrilla Zhang Jie and said with a grimace: "Guerrilla, the soldiers can't hold on any longer. I'm afraid they will collapse before the rebels attack the camp!"

Zhang Jie was also very depressed at this time, gasping and saying: "Why are you telling me this? There is nothing I can do if I collapse!"

General Manager gritted his teeth and said: "For this plan, we have only two options: one is to retreat immediately - there are still dozens of horses in the camp, and we generals have a chance to escape."

Zhang Jie stopped talking after hearing everything and asked: "What about the other way?"

"Surrender!" General Manager Yi gritted his teeth and said, "As long as we surrender, we don't have to fight to the death, nor do we have to go back and be punished by the supervisor."

"What about the young brothers?"

The general said: "Guerrilla, how many percent of the soldiers in the army have children? Besides, if the wife is gone, you can remarry, if the child is gone, you can have another one, but if your life is gone, it's all over!"

Zhang Jie's expression changed after hearing this, and he said: "We can't surrender directly. It's best to take Huang Guerrilla with us and negotiate terms with the rebels."

Mr. Ba was a little speechless after hearing this, and said: "Huang Youqi was a member of the Zongzhen clan, and the Zongzhen died at the hands of thieves. He was a relatively upright person, and he was afraid of death and refused to surrender.

As for negotiating terms with the rebels - now the rebels are afraid that they can capture the camp in one wave. Do the guerrillas think they will let us impose terms? "

Zhang Jie's expression became ugly.

Boom boom...

Another round of bombs came down, and one of them exploded not far away from Zhang Jie, frightening him to the core.

After the confusion subsided, he gritted his teeth and said to the general next to him: "Gather the servants and follow me to discuss the defense of the camp with Huang Guerrilla!"

When the boss heard this, he knew that Zhang Jie was probably going to become Huang Ming and lead everyone to surrender, so he immediately responded: "Yes!"

When Zhang Jie led more than a hundred people to find Huang Ming, Huang Ming was trying his best to suppress his officers and soldiers who wanted to escape.

Seeing Zhang Jie, Huang Ming was impatient but unprepared.

"Why did Zhang Youyi come to me if he doesn't arrange defense matters at this time?"

Zhang Jie saw that Huang Ming was half-surrounded by him and his servants without warning, so he said, "I want to borrow something from Huang Youqi."

"what?"

"Behead on your neck!"

While Zhang Jie was speaking, he took out his knife and slashed at Huang Ming's neck.

Huang Ming managed to escape with a few narrow escapes.

"Zhang Jie!"

Huang Ming, who had escaped with his life, was furious and slashed at Zhang Jie with a knife.

The servants under the two men also joined in, and they were fighting in an instant!

When Huang Ming's Ming army saw this, only a handful of them joined in to help Huang Ming deal with Zhang Jie and his servants. Most of the Ming troops just ran away - if Huang Ming hadn't brought his servants to suppress him, they would have run away long ago!

Just like this, before the rebels could attack the camp, civil strife broke out in the Ming army camp and it quickly collapsed...

After half an hour.

When Liu Sheng rushed to the Ming army camp on horseback, the remaining more than a thousand Ming army soldiers inside had been controlled and were taken as prisoners.

Zhang Jie was also among the prisoners.

Although he killed Huang Ming, he himself was seriously injured and could not control the rebels at all.

When the rebels broke into the camp, he had no chance to surrender and could only survive as a prisoner.

However, as the highest-ranking Ming army general among the prisoners, Zhang Jie was still brought to Liu Sheng.
