Chapter 29: The Emperor is mighty
Qinglong was a little farther away from Zhu Youzhen, and suddenly saw Tian Jianxiu sneaking up on the emperor, and he shouted anxiously. Swinging his sword and slashing two rogue cavalrymen, he flew up from his war horse to protect the emperor.
However, with the distance between him and Zhu Youzhen, there is almost no possibility, no matter how slow the spear thrown by Tian Jianxiu is, it must be faster than the Qinglong body.
Although Yue Nu knew that the emperor was powerful, as Zhu Youzhen's personal bodyguard, she still flew up, and the Yue Nu sword in her hand shot out, ready to shoot down the spear.
"It doesn't matter"
Almost at the same time, Zhu Youzhen snorted coldly, like a big peng, and his body rose from the warhorse.
His toes were a little on the fast-pacing spear, and he rushed towards Tian Jianxiu, who was so fast that he couldn't see his figure clearly, leaving only an afterimage behind him.
Before the spear landed, Zhu Youzhen's figure had already arrived in front of Tian Jianxiu, the black sheath sword waved lightly, and the toes tapped Tian Jianxiu's horse's head, and his body immediately flew out upside down.
After Tian Jianxiu's neck spurted out a bloody arrow, Zhu Youzhen was already sitting on top of the red rabbit.
All the movements are done in one go, in just a few breaths, extremely fast and clean.
Qinglong and Yue Nu are both eye-catching.
"Wow, Your Majesty is so fierce."
"The Emperor's Might"
"Your Majesty is mighty"
Because Zhu Youzhen stepped on the spear, Yue Nu Aqing's sword missed with one blow, but it continuously penetrated the bodies of the two rogues opposite.
Ah Qingfei stepped forward and pulled out her sword, her eyes full of admiration and admiration for the emperor.
Qinglong also breathed a long sigh of relief, and raised two thumbs up at Zhu Youzhen:
"The emperor is mighty?"
The elite of the Liukou was killed by the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, and they all moved closer to Li Zicheng's location, Li Cunxiao was killing up, and suddenly heard the word emperor,
Looking back, he found Zhu Youzhen and A Qingqinglong, Li Cunxiao turned his horse's head and ran towards Zhu Youzhen.
How can it be important to protect the emperor by killing the enemy, in case the emperor is a little missing, where should these summoned soldiers go.
Poyu King Shenshuo waved all the way, and dozens of people fell under the big lance, Li Cunxiao soon came to Zhu Youzhen's horse and shouted:
"Your Majesty, you shouldn't come to the battlefield, it's too dangerous."
Before Li Cunxiao's words fell, Qi Jiguang and Sun Chuanting also led his subordinates to rush to Zhu Youzhen's side after annihilating some of the old battalion soldiers of Liukou.
"The new army of the Qi family army has come to protect the emperor."
Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly:
"Two generals, I am not so unbearable, you quickly lead 5,000 iron cavalry and 2,000 new troops to fight out of the encirclement, cut off the retreat of the rogue from the rear, and no one can let go."
"Yes."
The summoned historical figures were all absolutely loyal to their hosts, and they said yes and waved their lieutenants to give them an explanation.
After the two deputy generals received the order, they led 5,000 Xuanjia iron cavalry and 2,000 Qi family troops to quickly kill the rear of the Liukou.
Although there were still many people and horses in the Liukou, under the brave impact of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, the 7,000 soldiers and horses quickly broke out of the encirclement and headed north.
Li Guo, the commander of Liukou, originally wanted to use elite cavalry to attack the two wings of the Ming army and disrupt the deployment of the Ming army.
Unexpectedly, the Ming army still had such a fierce cavalry ambush in the mountains and forests, but launched a fierce attack on their rear from both wings.
After half a day of fierce fighting, under the impact of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, almost half of the elite army of Liukou was lost.
The old battalion soldiers were also defeated under the siege and killing of the mandarin duck array of the Qi family's army, and quickly retreated to the hillside where Li Zicheng was.
Zhu Youzhen took out the telescope and looked around, and soon found the command center of the Liukou, and he pointed at the distant hillside with his black sword and ordered:
"Did you see that hillside? Li Zicheng stood on it to direct the battle, and Li Cunxiao gathered the remaining overlord iron cavalry to kill them.
Remember, they also have a firearms battalion, and if you face the rogue firearms battalion, you will immediately withdraw it to me, and then change to the Qi family's army.
Sooner or later, the rogues are my dishes, don't use the lives of the soldiers to exchange with them, the Ming Dynasty is short of people now, and the lives of the Ming soldiers are worth more than them, have you heard it? ”
Li Cunxiao and others hugged Zhu Youzhen on the war horse:
"Obey, thank you for the emperor's concern, we will be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, born as a Ming person, and died as a ghost of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Youzhen smiled and waved his hand:
"Go ahead, it's too numb."
Li Cunxiao agreed, and led the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to pounce on the Liukou command center, which was actually the hillside where Li Zicheng was.
The Liukou army, plus the surrendered Ming army, is almost 500,000 horses, and after yesterday's siege battle and today's bloody battle, there are only about 200,000 left.
It can be said that most of them were annihilated by the Ming Dynasty, and the old battalion soldiers and elites suffered serious losses, and now they have all retreated to the front of the hillside where Li Zicheng is located.
Yesterday was still aggressive, and the rogues who wanted to eat the Jingshi in one bite are now very demoralized, and they have fought with the Ming army for so many years, and they have never lost as badly as now.
In the past, there were also fiascos, but they all fought more with less, and they were not convinced by the losses, but today their army of nearly 500,000 was almost defeated by more than 50,000 people of the Ming army.
Liu Zongmin, Hao Shaoqi, Tian Jianxiu and nearly ten other generals died in battle, which was unacceptable to Li Zicheng.
So he began to arrange a counterattack, he didn't believe that tens of thousands of Ming troops still had the strength to fight, even if they couldn't kill them today, they could exhaust the Ming army to death.
"Gao Yigong, you gather all the cavalry, lead it by you, and kill me fiercely."
"Liu Fangliang, you organize the infantry as soon as possible and cooperate with the cavalry to charge into battle."
"Li Guo, I will give you a firearms battalion and two thousand personal guards, fully cooperate with the infantry and cavalry to fight, all the generals pay attention, this battle must be completely annihilated."
After Li Zicheng finished deploying, Li Guo's face was very ugly, and he felt that the Dashun army should temporarily retreat and no longer fight with the Ming army.
The military literacy of these Ming troops is not something they can compete with at all, and if they continue to fight, they may be wiped out.
Li Guo gritted his teeth and took a step forward, bowing down:
"Your Majesty, the morale of the soldiers is low, are we thinking of other ways, it is better to ......"
"Come on, stop Lao Tzu, since my Dashun army has been killed under the Jingshi City, how can I easily withdraw and carry out the order."
Li Zicheng's words made Li Guo want to cry, but as soon as he hesitated, Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance quietly glanced at him.
Of course, Li Guo knew what they meant.
"This ...... Yes, sir! ”
Li Guo can understand Li Zicheng's mood at this time, the army has been killed under the capital city, and it is only one step away from the final victory, King Chuang is unwilling to give up, he is gambling.
Although Li Guo was very helpless in his heart, he didn't dare to disobey the order, and gently probed and waved his hand:
"Follow me to the firearms battalion."
"Order."
The Rogue Firearms Battalion agreed, followed Li Guo, and rushed down the hill.
