The Qing army scouts rushed to the strange village ahead, but found that there were a circle of gullies around, but there was a road to enter the village.

"Walking that road, you can enter the village." said Zhuangda of the Qing army.

"We searched in Julu for two days, but found nothing. The Hangou Nikan people must have come here. Let's go in and check in first and grab something by the way." said a Qing soldier.

The Qing army scouts and mail cavalry poured into the village. They thought they could enter the village and robbed them. Who knew that as soon as they entered the village, countless crossbowmen appeared on the roof, and arrows with cold light flashed at more than a dozen Qing army scouts and mail cavalry.

"Shoot people and not horses." Several small officers explained to each crossbowman according to Wang Quan's instructions.

More than a dozen Qing army scouts cavalry entered the village and all had entered the range. But Wang Quan did not order archery, but waited for the Qing army to get closer. After a while, the Qing army found that there was no one on the streets in the village, so they dismounted and broke into the house with swords and guns and snatched some things.

"Let me go!" Wang Quan gave the order.

The fifty crossbowmen who were shooting archers in the first row pressed down the hanging knife together. Only a row of bowstrings were heard of the sound of loose bowstrings. The dense crossbows and arrows intertwined a dense net, covering more than a dozen Qing army scout cavalry who had dismounted. Then the first row of crossbowmen retreated, the second row of crossbowmen went up, pressed down the hanging knife, and another fifty pairs of powerful crossbows shot sharp arrows.

The arrows were like rain. These crossbow arrows that could shoot through three layers of armor all shot into hornet's nests in a blink of an eye, leaving no living mouth. Although several Qing soldiers had high martial arts skills and waved their tiger-toothed swords to block the crossbow arrows, they were still swallowed by the arrows that shot like rain. Two Qing soldiers who were quick to react raised their shields, but could not block the arrows shot from all directions. The shield blocked the front, but were shot into a hedgehog by the crossbow arrows shot from behind.

It ended like this? Such a cruel Jiannu died like this? But two rounds of arrows shot all the more than ten elite Qing army scouts and whistle cavalry to death. Such a result made the new recruits adapted from refugees unable to believe their results at all.

Many of these new recruits under Wang Quan's command were civilians who had fled before. Most of them killed people for the first time, and some had never even killed chickens. Now they saw those arrogant and fierce Qing soldiers being shot like hunted rabbits, and they were stunned.

The training of crossbowmen is extremely simple. An ordinary farmer can become a qualified crossbowman after three months of training. The crossbow they use is a kind of powerful crossbow with an amazing range of 200 steps and is extremely powerful. The bowstring materials used are like horse lances, and they are made of precious mulberry wood. The crossbow body is made of iron and the crossbow machine is steel. It uses silk and hemp as the bowstring. When the string is turned on, use foot to open it, put the crossbow machine into the crossbow body, and hang it on the mechanism. The loading speed is much faster than that of the bird gun, the accuracy and range are higher than that of the bird gun, and the power is comparable to that of the bird gun, and the operation is simpler than that of the bird gun.

However, this kind of crossbow machine also has a fatal disadvantage, which is that its cost is far greater than that of bird guns. So far, Li Guodong has only built a thousand excellent crossbows. All of these crossbowmen have been allocated to Wang Quan. The crossbowmen are the farmers who obey orders the most, and let them fire within fifty steps. They will never shoot crossbow arrows randomly when the enemy is still far away.

Among the 10,000 infantry under Wang Quan, there were also a large number of archers, but the bows and arrows they used were rough bamboo bows and wooden bows, and even the strings were made of rough hemp ropes. The arrows were fired out with the elasticity of bamboo and wood. Those shoddy bamboo bows and wooden bows had a maximum range of only fifty steps. When shooting heavy arrows directly, they could break the armor within fifteen steps. The range was very close, but the price was cheap. Moreover, this simple archer training was also simple. It only took several months of training to rush to the battlefield. They did not require high accuracy. They just shot arrows intensively and killed the enemy at close range.

"Sweep the battlefield and put away all the captured war horses!" Wang Quan gave the order.

More than 30 infantrymen opened the door and walked out, stripped the bodies of the Qing soldiers completely. All the armor and weapons on their bodies were taken away. The gold, silver and jewelry snatched by the Qing soldiers became Wang Quan's spoils, and more than 20 good horses were also accepted by Wang Quan.

"The battle results are brilliant. Ten tiger spears, twelve step bows, twelve riding bows, twelve cavalry bows, one mace, one long-handled big axe, four tiger-toothed swords, eight straight swords, twenty-four war horses, more than five hundred taels of silver, more than one hundred taels of gold, several jewelry, as well as armor, javelins, arrows and other items." Wu Biao reported to Wang Quan the spoils seized just now.

Liu Zhu said: "Boss, those armors are shot through by crossbow arrows. Can they still be used?"

"Of course, I can just do it and just do it for a simple repair. It can block Jiannu's heavy arrow from a long distance." Wang Quandao.

In fact, Wang Quan did not arrange the fleeing people from Julu County and the surrounding villages in his own village. This village was actually a huge military camp, specially used to accommodate Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army, providing supplies and protection to the Tianxiong Army, and to block the use of the Qing army, so there was no fleeing people in the village.

Where did the people in Julu County and the surrounding villages go? They were taken away by Wang Quan and all entered the Taihang Mountains to the west to avoid the massacre and looting of the Qing army. They will return to their homes after the Qing army retreats.

In the village, on a high platform in the north of the village, a sentry was standing on the platform, holding a pair of monolithic mirrors in his hand, observing the movement outside the village.

Julu is located in the North China Plain. Looking around, there is endless open space around. Looking at it with a thousand-mile mirror, there are Qing army activities within more than 20 miles of the surrounding area, but they cannot escape the eyes of the sentry.

More than an hour later, another team of Qing cavalry appeared on the plain. Seeing the military flag clearly, it seemed that it was the Korqin Mongolian cavalry, with about a thousand people. It was obvious that the Qing army discovered this village, and more than a thousand Korqin Mongolian cavalry rushed towards the village immediately.

Although it was only the Korqin Meng Eight Banners cavalry, the Mongols who followed the Manchus and Han military flags into the pass and plundered also gained a lot of benefits after following the Qing army. In addition to the gloomy Li Guodong, which Ming army dared to fight against the Mongol Eight Banners cavalry? The ordinary Ming army ran away when they saw the Qing army's banner. How could they tell if they were not Manchus, but Mongols or Han people? Only Li Guodong's elite cavalry dared to pinch the Mongols as soft persimmons. Fortunately, Li Guodong's number was too small. If there were more, would the Mongol Eight Banners cavalry still survive? Because the annoying cavalry was small, the Korqin Meng Eight Banners who followed the Qing army into the pass and plundered also robbed a lot of money and made a fortune.

"We brothers have not snatched anything in the past few days. There is a big village in front of us, and there is smoke from cooking. The Hangou Barbarians must have come here." said Zhang Jing, a Mongolian Eight Banners Niulu.

Another Niu Lu Zhang Jing said: "How could he come here? The Hangou Man must have hid in the mountains!"

"Even if we didn't hide here, there would definitely be a lot of people in such a large village. If we go in and rob, we will definitely gain a lot."

The Eight Banners of Mongolia circled around the village for a few times and found that there was a trench around the outside of the village, and there was only one road to enter the village.

Just as the Mongolians were circling around the village, they found a woman in the village looking out and found a large number of Mongolian cavalry outside. The woman screamed and hid back in fear.

"There is a woman!" The Mongolians looked like a wolve who saw a lamb, and their eyes shone.
