Chapter 538: Two Wings Flanking (First Update!) Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass! )

Geng Jimao's forehead was covered with sweat, and his whole person was like a tight loom.

The oppressive force given by the Ming army was too high, and it only took a moment to push the front forward a lot.

If this momentum continues, it won't be long before the situation gets completely out of control!

Now Geng Jimao can't attack the city, and he can't withdraw his troops.

It's a dilemma, and it's very uncomfortable.

At this moment, he noticed that Shi Lang's detachment was dispatched.

Geng Jimao couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Shi Lang is still very powerful.

He hadn't made a move before, probably because he felt that the situation had not yet reached the time when he needed to make a move.

And now that the situation is almost out of control, if Shi Lang doesn't make a move, it will be really difficult to go against the sky.

It can be said that Shi Lang is in control of the timing in this regard.

Geng Jimao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

With Shi Lang's joining, the situation can at least be stabilized, right?

Now Geng Jimao doesn't want to win anything, he just hopes that the situation can return to the state he just arrived in Jiangxi.

It's just that Geng Jimao is obviously thinking too much.

Shi Lang's partial division was mixed with infantry and cavalry, mainly infantry.

When facing the Ming cavalry on a large pressure, the effect is not as good as that of pure infantry.

Because the words of pure infantry can unify one thought and maintain one action.

But if it is a group of infantry and a group of cavalry, it is difficult to keep it in a consistent and reasonable state in terms of pace and movement.

Shi Lang's partial division did not have a very good effect after pressing on it heavily, but on the contrary, it seemed to be in a quagmire and miserable.

The feeling of not being able to exert the power is so painful.

What made Geng Jimao feel even more painful was that the entire battlefield was divided into several pieces by the Ming army.

Geng Jimao's formation that he had managed to line up was also shattered.

The Ming army obviously did it on purpose, and it was as strong as Shi Lang who punched the cotton, what other way could he do?

But no matter how difficult it is, you have to fight hard, and now admitting cowardice is not a waste of all your previous achievements.

The Ming army is not a living bodhisattva, and he will not have any mercy for them.

Geng Jimao can imagine that once he falls into the Ming army, he is likely to end up with a fate that cannot survive but not die.

I shudder to think about it.

In order not to become Hong Chengchou's second, Geng Jimao decided to resist to the end.

Mo said that he still has more than 100,000 people, but there are only a few thousand left, and he has to fight the Ming army to the end.

"The king of this book will order the death of those who retreat!"

Geng Jimao gritted his teeth and roared.

Now that there is no way to retreat, he will bind all his soldiers to him.

If Geng Jimao is defeated, he will inevitably die, so he will pull these soldiers on his back.

There are those who dare to escape!

Geng Jimao is not a soft-hearted person, never has been!

If he has the opportunity to fight for enough benefits, he can even do it without recognizing his relatives!

What's more, these are just veterans of his Geng family.

Since you are eating the Geng family's food, you have to listen to the Geng family.

Geng Jimao is very sure that this battle will be fought, and the key depends on whether the soldiers are willing to use their lives.

There is a way to put death and then live.

It may sound sad, but that's the truth.

Geng Jimao clenched his fists, and his eyes revealed a fierce light.

This fierce light is like that of a beast that has been hungry for a long time.

Come on, if you want to trouble this king, then just let the horse come, this king wants to see how capable you are!

...

...

That's it? It's too weak!

The corners of Li Laiheng's mouth rose slightly, revealing a trace of disdain.

Originally, he thought that Geng Jimao had a powerful army, which was different from ordinary green battalion generals.

But now, it doesn't seem to be much different.

After the real fight, the Ming army had an absolute advantage.

Whether it is attacking the enemy's formation or dividing the battlefield, the soldiers of the Ming army have done a great job, and it can be said that all the rhythms are under control.

It's like the next game, Black is still struggling with how to make this move, and White is already thinking about what will happen after five or ten moves.

Li Laiheng actually had a bold idea, that is, to completely annihilate this Qing army, or Geng's army.

His Majesty the Emperor gave a decree to destroy Geng Jimao's and Shang Kexi's living force as much as possible, and then take advantage of the victory to pursue.

But after an on-the-spot assessment, Lee Lai Heng felt that the situation seemed to be smoother than expected.

If you have the opportunity to do it all in one battle, why hold it back?

Who doesn't know that Guangdong and Fujian are rich places, and if they can win them, it will also be of considerable help to the Northern Expedition in the future.

Of course, at the moment, Li Laiheng is only thinking about this big war.

How to take the heads of Geng Jimao and Shang Kexi with the smallest battle damage is what he is most concerned about.

"Squeeze the space of the Tartars from both wings and drive them to the middle as much as possible."

After observation, Li Laiheng found that the space for Geng Jimao and others is still too big now.

With such ample space, Geng Jimao can come up with some bells and whistles.

And if the space is compressed, compressed, and compressed, and Geng Jimao's army is driven into a narrow area, the next thing to do is very simple.

Admittedly, it takes a lot of effort to do so, but Lee thinks it's worth it.

Of course, this is not only something he can do alone, but also requires the cooperation of friendly forces.

Li Dingguo's "old Xiying" can be said to have understood it after seeing the flag words that Li Laiheng had ordered people to play.

They were also from the peasant army, and they knew the details of this tactic very well.

In fact, in the process of fighting wits and courage with the officials and soldiers during the Chongzhen period, they invented countless tactics.

And that's one of them.

The commander of Li Dingguo's army is named Daniel Zhang, who is a rising star in the old Xiying over the years.

Although he didn't experience the time when he first followed the Eight Kings to fight the world, he still learned the essence of this tactic.

The world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable.

It's the same with the battlefield.

The advantage of cavalry is to constantly pull, tear open, and then use the enemy's panic to expand the advantage as much as possible.

And now what Daniel Zhang has to do is to cooperate with Li Laiheng to drive the Qing army together like a sheep.

One of the two is in the east and the other is in the west, but the absolute distance is not too far, so it is not too difficult to communicate.

Under Daniel Zhang's orders, the formation of the Ming army underwent some slight changes, although it did not seem to affect the overall situation, but it did play a great role.

The Qing soldiers were completely unaware of the danger and were still immersed in local struggles.

It's like boiling a frog in warm water, the water is heated slowly, so the frog doesn't react too much at first.

By the time the frog reacted, it was too late.

Daniel Zhang didn't know the quality of this Qing army, but who knew that it would be such a good thing.

But in my heart, I was very proud.
