Wheel——
Under the command of Chen Changming, the Tusi soldiers pushed the rolling logs and rocks down the hillside.
When the Ming army saw this, they immediately stopped attacking and looked for cover.
Some hid behind large rocks, some hid behind trees, and some Ming soldiers had nowhere to hide and could only turn around and run backwards.
With the help of rolling logs and rocks, Chen Changming successfully retreated to the second line of defense.
At this time, Sha Dingzhou had recovered from the explosion. He covered his ears, which were still buzzing, and gave orders loudly: "Guard your positions, and get the rolling logs and rocks ready. As soon as the Ming army attacks, push down and crush them all to death!"
"Don't worry, sir. We are ready."
"I'd rather die than surrender!"
"Fight the Ming army!"
The chieftains and generals expressed their opinions one after another to boost their own morale.
Sha Dingzhou nodded with satisfaction and continued to inspect the position.
Chen Changming took two quick steps to Sha Dingzhou's side and said, "Sir, can I have a word with you?"
Sha Dingzhou nodded and took him to a secluded place.
"Sir, the Ming army's bird guns can reach us, but our bows and arrows can't reach them. This is not a solution." Chen Changming said worriedly, "The number of rolling logs and stones is limited. After we use them up, I'm afraid our army will... be defeated!"
"Ah," Sha Dingzhou shook his head and sighed, "Of course I know! But...what else can I do?"
Sha Dingzhou has run out of ideas.
If he had a way, he would not have suffered repeated defeats in Yunnan Province and retreated to his old nest in Mengzi.
Chen Changming pondered for a moment and then whispered, "Sir, I have a plan."
"Speak." Sha Dingzhou showed an eager look.
"Divide the troops!"
......
After listening to Chen Changming's plan, Sha Dingzhou hesitated for a long time.
"Sir, don't hesitate any longer. It's better to take a risk than to lose every step!"
"This..." Sha Dingzhou was still a little hesitant, because the risk of Chen Changming dividing his troops was too great.
"The Ming army is about to attack, sir, give the order quickly! If we can't hold the second line of defense, we can't hold the third line of defense either. Behind the third line of defense is a camp, and then our army will have no way to retreat!"
Sha Dingzhou gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Okay, I'll do as you say!"
A quarter of an hour later.
Chen Changming led two thousand chieftain soldiers to quickly withdraw from the battlefield.
They did not actually leave, but instead went around to the sides of the hillside, hiding behind rocks and observing the situation.
A thousand Ming troops soon launched another attack.
Just like the previous method, the rattan shield bearers were in front and the bird gun soldiers were in the back, attacking the mountain in a dispersed formation.
Boom boom
The defenders rolled the logs and rocks that had been prepared in advance down the hillside.
The Ming army's offensive was blocked and they were forced to stop and hide.
After the rolling logs and stones passed, the Ming army regrouped and attacked.
The chieftain's soldiers threw it.
The Ming army hid.
After repeating this four or five times, the Ming army was less than thirty steps away from the Tusi's position.
Sha Dingzhou swallowed his saliva.
Now he is very sensitive to distance, and if he doesn't counterattack, the Ming army will throw grenades.
"kill!"
Suddenly, uniform sounds of killing were heard from both sides of the hillside.
In the sound of killing.
Chen Changming led two thousand Tusi soldiers to climb out from behind the rocks and kill their way down the hillside.
They held sharp weapons, wore thin armor, shouted uniform slogans, and rushed towards the Ming army like tigers descending from the mountains.
As Chen Changming launched his attack, Sha Dingzhou stood up and swung his knife fiercely: "Kill, take back our land and women!"
"Kill!" Thousands of Tusi soldiers jumped out of the bunkers at the same time and launched a counterattack.
They had been defeated several times before and had already developed a fear of the Ming army.
However, at this moment, the fear in the hearts of the chieftain's soldiers turned into the motivation for the charge!
They want to regain their confidence from this group of Ming troops.
The rattan shield bearers at the front of the Ming army were frightened by the momentum of the chieftain's soldiers and turned around and ran.
Seeing this, the other rattan shield bearers followed suit and ran.
The Ming army's rattan shield soldiers suffered a crushing defeat.
Down the hillside.
Countless Ming troops are gathering and waiting.
Li Dingguo, who was watching the battle, had a blank expression on his face. He said to the messenger: "All troops, attack!"
Crash!
As the military flags were waving, the main force of the Ming army set out.
They were armed with a variety of weapons and moved up the hillside in a dispersed formation to support the fleeing soldiers.
Sha Dingzhou was stunned for a moment when he saw the military flag swaying at the foot of the hill, and then he laughed wildly: "Hahaha."
"What are you laughing at, sir?" someone asked.
"I laugh at Li Dingguo's lack of fighting talent, and at the Ming army being dragged down by him! The Ming army on the mountain is being defeated. If Li Dingguo sends out his main force at this time, not only will he not be able to save them, but he will be dragged down by the defeated soldiers and defeated together."
"This battle is a sure win!"
As soon as he finished speaking, uniform shouts of killing were heard from the bottom of the mountain.
Sha Dingzhou looked hurriedly and saw that the Ming army's bird-gun soldiers launched a counterattack with bird-guns in hand.
Seeing this, the retreating rattan shield bearer immediately turned around and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the chieftain's soldiers chasing after him.
Chen Changming surrounded the enemy from both wings. He bypassed the rattan shield bearers and pounced on the bird-gun soldiers.
Because he found that the bird-gun soldier only had a bird-gun on him, no knife, and no other melee weapons.
"Brothers, hold back the rattan shield bearers and concentrate your forces to kill the bird-gun soldiers first. They don't have swords!"
"Here I come, here to take the credit!"
"Look at the knife!"
The Tusi soldiers quickly split up the Ming army on the battlefield. Except for leaving a small number of troops to contain the rattan shield bearers, the rest surrounded the 500 bird gun soldiers.
Their original intention was to first deal with the bird-gun soldiers who had no melee weapons, and then concentrate their forces to deal with the fully armed rattan shield soldiers.
However...
