The effective attack of the Franz aircraft boosted the morale of the Ming army. Just as the Baihu led his men to approach, he planned to break into the camp directly when the Qing army was panicking. At this time, artillery from the high grounds on both sides rushed in waves, suppressing the Ming army tightly. Since the support of the high grounds on both sides, the Qing army on the front did not panic for a long time, and soon started to fight back with the shouts of its commander. In the end, the attack ended in failure. When it retreated, not only did nearly a hundred people be lost, but even the Franz aircraft he carried destroyed two doors.

Looking at the high ground on both sides, Yang Xu knew very well that if he wanted to take down the camp, he had to pull out these two nails first. However, the Qing army's defense points were very good. The high ground on both sides was extremely steep towards the Ming army. Not to mention rushing, even the local mountain people would have to work hard to climb up. Moreover, judging from the situation of the Qing army's counterattack, there were a lot of people stationed on both sides. In addition to the reinforcements of the Qing army at the other end of the valley, it was impossible for the Ming army to seize the high ground in one breath with the current strength of the Ming army.

Since ancient times, there have been many dangerous areas that often describe it as one man as a pass, and ten thousand men are not open. This is the fortifications of these Badaowans. Without a better solution, Yang Xu could only force a breakthrough with his strength. This is the result he least wants to see, and it is also the most helpless choice.

But Yang Xu is Yang Xu. The so-called defender is also good at attacking. Yang Xu is good at defending, so he is very clear about the advantages and countermeasures of such defense. He immediately organized the third attack. This attack was more reasonable than the first two times. He also carried Franz aircraft, large shields and military vehicles. However, when it was almost at the attack range of the Qing army, some specially selected Ming troops cooperated in groups of three or three, and at the same time brought bows, arrows, muskets, gunpowder and other objects. Relying on rocks, mountain walls, and hills to avoid, they approached the attack one after another, without asking to take down the camp at once, but only trying to kill the Qing army as much as possible to achieve the purpose of the attack.

With the adjustment of the strategy of the attack, the casualties of the Ming army did decrease a lot, and the casualties of the Qing army began to rise one after another, which was much better than the passive situation at the beginning. But although it seemed to be lively, Yang Xu was not excited at all, because he knew that this kind of punishment was to put it bluntly, and from the perspective of both sides of the consumption, his casualties as the attacking side were far greater than those of the Qing army.

"It won't work if this continues." Yang Xu said to Chen Wuxian: "Brother Chen, you still have to help you find a way. Let's do this. You will immediately take 500 people to the north. Although Lan Li made preparations on the ridge of the north, I think he could not set up defenses everywhere. If he could find a place to cross the mountain, just bypass it and turn east and go to the east to make a fierce battle on Qingdog's butt in Badaowan. This battle would be much easier."

Since the war started, Chen Wuxian has seen all the attack situation. He nodded and agreed immediately, and then picked people without delaying for a moment.

There were many people in the Ming army who were good at climbing mountains. Chen Wuxian quickly selected 500 people and set off immediately with their equipment. The attack of Badaowan has never stopped. Although such an attack was not worth the effort in the overall situation, Yang Xu had to maintain the attack to put pressure on the Qing army. At the same time, he also used this method to attract the attention of the Qing army to create conditions for Chen Wuxian.

In the next two days, Chen Wuxian did not complete the task. This was not because he did not do well, but because it was impossible to climb many places to the north. It might be possible if only one or two people could barely climb up with equipment, but it would be absolutely impossible for hundreds of people to climb over.

Moreover, Lan Li was very cunning. Not only did he set up fortifications on many ridges, but he also set up police whistles in some places where he might be crossed. Chen Wuxian finally found a place that could be crossed, but before they could take action, he was discovered by the left-behind police whistle. Not only did he fail, he also lost several brothers' lives in vain and finally had no choice but to retreat.

When Chen Wuxian returned to Badaowan in vain, Yang Xu had no choice but to sigh after hearing his story. At this time, the attack of Badaowan was still continuing. The Ming army suffered more than 1,000 casualties in the past few days. As for how many casualties of the Qing army on Badaowan were not counted for the time being, it is at least possible to touch a few hundred people.

"General, Ma Shuai asked how long it will take to capture Badaowan?" At this moment, Ma Gongcheng's army was almost at Badaowan. When he learned that Yang Xu was blocked in Badaowan for nearly three days, Ma Gongcheng sent someone to ask.

"Give me another three days... no! Two days! I will definitely take down Badaowan." Yang Xu said firmly, and then continued to issue an order to attack. As the army arrived immediately, the attack on Badaowan became more and more fierce, and the casualties of the Ming army continued to rise, but it was also obvious that the Qing army was defending was also quite casualties.

On this day, the battle was fought from early morning to evening. When night fell, the army reported the casualties. After hearing this, Yang Xu was extremely heartbroken. The Ming army suffered more than 500 casualties in this day. Since the war started, there have been more than 2,000 casualties, which is almost one or two of the forwards he led.

The casualties were all elites in the Ming army, and some were the old brothers who followed him in Taishun. One by one, familiar faces left him. Although the people who led the troops could not tolerate the kindness of a woman, their hearts were as strong as iron, but people's hearts were still fleshy. How could Yang Xu not be sad about this situation?

If he still can't take Badaowan tomorrow, and the Ming army will be blocked by Ma Zheng's army, which will have serious consequences for Fujian's strategy. Yang Xu is very clear about this, not to mention that he also made a promise to take Badaowan within two days. If he can't do it, even if Yang Xu has made great contributions, the military law is ruthless and Yang Xu must bear this responsibility.

"General!" Just as Yang Xu was restless and racked his brains to find a solution in the camp, a personal soldier suddenly came to report.

"What's the matter?"

"The Qing dogs in Badaowan seem to be in chaos. General Chen asked you to go and take a look right away."

"What?!" Hearing this, Yang Xu stood up and rushed out of the camp quickly. Soon he arrived a few miles from the Badaowan front line. Chen Wuxian was already there at that time.

"What happened?"

"Brother Yang, look!" Chen Wuxian pointed his finger into the valley and looked in the direction of his finger. There was indeed something wrong with the Qing army camp. Usually, the camp there was dark paint at night except for the faint lights. But now the lights were bright and there were many bonfires.
