Chapter Sixty-Nine: Breaking the King and Turning the Ox into a Tiger

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Breaking the King and Turning the Ox into a Tiger

Time flies.

Days passed in a flash.

But Zhang Xuan didn't feel slow at all.

On the contrary, there is a kind of depression that the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings. Zhang Xuan marched every day, but whenever he had a little time, he would scrutinize what Sun Chuanting did. said secretly: "I only remember that between Sun Chuanting and Li Zicheng, there was the defeat of Persimmon Garden." But where is this persimmon garden? ”

Zhang Xuan rummaged through ancient books, but did not find a place called Persimmon Garden in Ruzhou. I couldn't help but secretly say in my heart: "Could it be that Li Xin miscalculated, the place where the two sides fought was not in Jiaxian, but elsewhere. Zhang Xuan repeatedly thought about Li Xin's inference. and assuming that he is Sun Chuanting, what should he do.

Thinking about it, I have to admit that I am far inferior to Li Xin, and I secretly said in my heart: "Some people compare me with Li Xin, they are both rising stars in the camp, wise and brave, capable of literature and martial arts." However, I am deeply introspective and not as good as Li Xinyuan, and most of my insights are based on the insights of later generations, or they are the results of later generations. It is far less than Li Xin to see the incident. Today, I saw the battle between Sun Chuanting and Li Zicheng, and I realized that for masters, when they started to engage in battle, it was the second half of the war, and all kinds of predictions, deception and anti-deception, and so on, were not something I could do. If there was a real course of war, I would be able to score 60 points at most, but the real master is not limited by the 100-point system. The only thing to be thankful for is that the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty didn't seem to be too amazing, such as Bai Qi, Li Jing's famous general. ”

While thinking about it, Zhang Xuan led the team into Yuzhou City.

At this time, Yuzhou City was the logistics base of the Righteous Army, and it was in the state city, but Zhang Xuan entered Yuzhou City and found that there were not many people in the city.

"Uncle." Yang Shan said: "The marshal ordered you not to stay in Yuzhou City." Let's go. ”

Seeing this, Zhang Xuan was shocked in his heart, and he already had a premonition, and asked Yang Shan in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Yang Shan lowered his voice and said: "I found that the official army brigade is full of people, King Chuang has rushed over, and the marshal has also followed, just your infantry team is here, the battle is on this day or two, uncle, remember not to talk nonsense." ”

"I know." Zhang Xuan said in a low voice: "It's not the first time I've fought a war. ”

Before the big war, keep it strictly secret.

Because if the notice continues, the soldiers below will be at a loss, and even the morale of the army will fluctuate. This is already the norm. But often it is not possible to keep secrets, and before the start of the war, gossip flies around, and the soldiers are not stupid. Soldiers who fought old battles can also see it.

Zhang Xuan can be regarded as having been in battle for a long time, but he doesn't know what's wrong, and the whole person becomes nervous

He counted it carefully, the battle of Xiangcheng, he was just a decoy, Linying battle Zuo Liangyu, in fact, it was an outpost battle in a big war, the battle of Xiangcheng, it was a sneak attack, as for the battle of Kaifeng Chengbei, although it was miserable

Lie, but there are not many of each other.

Like this, the total number of troops invested by the two sides exceeded 100,000, and the decisive battle of nearly 200,000 was the first time for Zhang Xuan, after all, he did not participate in the battle of Zhuxian Town.

However, after the nervousness, there is excitement.

After all, history tells him. The place where Li Zicheng lost was a stone, not here, this battle will definitely be a big victory. Zhang Xuan has confidence.

After getting the order, Zhang Xuan didn't dare to slack off, and immediately explained the matter to the people in Yuzhou City. The brigade did not enter the city and went directly to the southwest.

A day has passed.

When Zhang Xuan had just touched the county boundary of Jiaxian, the war began.

It is more than ten miles west of Zhang Xuan. Li Zicheng looked at a flat land, which was extremely open and solid, making it a good place to fight. said: "What is this place?" ”

"This is Ji's Terrace, and it is rumored that Emperor Liu Xiu of the Han Guangwu Dynasty surrendered here." One of the guides said, "However, it is often used as a martial arts lecture now. ”

Li Zicheng was not very interested in these stories, although his eyes were watching the terrain, he was a little uneasy, and said to Zhang Nai: "Where are the officers and soldiers?" ”

Zhang Nai said: "The official army is just a few miles away. The banner is the general soldier of Lintao, the cow. It should be a cow into a tiger. ”

Hearing the name Niu Chenghu, Li Zicheng smiled disdainfully, obviously escaping from the battle in Xiangcheng, so that Li Zicheng still had some impression of Niu Chenghu.

Li Zicheng asked again: "Where is Cao Ying?" ”

Zhang Nai said: "I'm rushing over, the current location is ---" Zhang Nai couldn't say for a while, after all, when he found the enemy's traces, he had already sent someone to inform Cao Ying to come over as soon as possible, but on the battlefield, they were all movers, and the news transmission was lagging behind, and now Zhang Nai couldn't tell where Cao Ying was.

"Can you get there?" Li Zicheng asked directly. "Can you come over before Niu Chenghu finds out about us?"

Zhang Nai smiled bitterly: "How is it possible? ”

Although Niu Chenghu was still a few miles away from the location of the camp, he had toes to think that Niu Chenghu's exploration horse was definitely very close to them. There are even many exploration horses who have broken into the camp at this moment, and they are not collecting at night under the command of Niu Chenghu.

But this kind of behavior can't be stopped for long.

The traces of tens of thousands of troops can't be hidden for long if they want to. The closer you are, the more impossible it is to hide.

Li Zicheng stood up and said: "In this case, pass the order, the army is ready, don't wait for Cao Ying, I will wait for the first attack." ”

"Yes." Zhang Nai immediately sent someone to pass the order.

After Li Zicheng thought about it, he felt that the opportunity could not be lost, and he would not come again. Moreover, the official army came over only Niu Chenghu, and if he could defeat Niu Chenghu, he would rush to defeat the defeated soldiers and defeat him

Most of the officers and troops don't need Cao Ying, but it's just right.

But if the officers and troops can stabilize their positions, they will fight a battle first, and anyway, Cao Ying will arrive later, and there will not be much delay.

Of course, there is also an unspeakable reason, the camp is good at attacking, and Cao Ying is good at fighting, this sentence makes Li Zicheng a little uncomfortable.

It didn't take long for all the troops of the camp hidden in the woods to get the order, and they all held their breath, clenched their swords and guns, and looked at the place where the officers and soldiers were coming.

It seems like a while, and it seems like a long time.

A red flag came out of the horizon, and it was written: "General soldier of Lintao, cattle." "This banner is two feet tall and looks very eye-catching. After a while, the officers and soldiers of the brigade also became clear, and they saw that the people and horses of the brigade were all wearing mandarin duck battle jackets and wearing Fan Yang hats. In his hands, he was neatly holding a firecracker, or a knife and gun, and there were many horse teams on the periphery.

Li Zicheng put the clairvoyant mirror on top of the one eye, and it seemed that he could see Niu Chenghu's old face clearly.

Niu Chenghu seemed to sense something, and looked in the direction of Li Zicheng suddenly. Li Zicheng waved his hand.

Zhang Nai personally lit the fire, and a rocket rushed into the sky, the arrow tied to this rocket was an arrow, and the extremely sharp whistle and the sound of gunpowder were converging to form a sharp, somewhat harsh sound.

Within miles, on the entire battlefield, every corner could be clearly heard.

"Kill." Liu Zongmin turned over his horse, and the first one rushed out, and then ten thousand horses galloped, and more than 10,000 cavalry rushed down, like a landslide and tsunami, which was overwhelming.

Niu Chenghu seemed to be on guard and immediately formed a formation, wanting to resist the cavalry. But where is it so easy, the soldiers who are marching are quickly transformed into battle formations, and they are completed under the pressure of the enemy, even if Zhang Xuan comes to do this, it is a big head.

You must know that the speed on the training ground and the speed on the battlefield are fundamentally different things. Many soldiers can perform on the training ground by three-tenths of the time, and they are considered elite soldiers.

Sure enough, Niu Chenghu was defeated.

Liu Zongmin was the first to rush into the array, and the formation collapsed in an instant.

It seems that the combat effectiveness of Niu Chenghu's foot soldiers is too weak, and they almost collapse as soon as they hit, and all of them are like headless flies, turning around and leaving.

Niu Chenghu saw that the situation was irreparable, and cut off the two-zhang high pole with his own hands with an expressionless face: "Lintao General Soldier, Niu." The banner turned around with more than a thousand cavalry and left.

As soon as the banner fell, the officers and soldiers who could have held on lost their backbone and could no longer recover.

Li Zicheng was overjoyed, he personally rode the horse and said: "Chase, give me a tight bite." ”

What he cared about was not whether Niu Chenghu ran or not, but that he wanted to take advantage of Niu Chenghu's defeated army to rush Sun Chuanting's army formation.
