The stalemate on the front-line battlefield made the Dashun army want to drive straight into the long drive and crush the territory of the He Jiajun army with the strong strength of the Dutch army, which became a utopia.

Liu Zongmin, as the general that Li Zicheng relied on the most, his personal ability and the strength of the army under his command were second to none among the many generals in Dashun, and even he had no way to take Caozhou City in one go, so he could naturally see how strong the resistance of the He Jiajun was.

And on their own rear road, the cavalry of the He Jiajun has been constantly harassing their baggage team, just like the hornets that have been flying behind them, and if they don't pay attention, they will be bitten out by the other party with a big bag, which is really annoying.

Li Zicheng thought that he paid great attention to the He Jiajun and that he would be sent out to protect the grain route by himself in the most powerful 10,000 cavalry, but in the end, he still didn't expect that he underestimated the strength of the other party, and let him eat his most powerful cavalry army, and gave himself a heavy blow before the decisive battle, which made his heart ache, but he also had to find a way to solve the big trouble behind him.

"Tian Mi Xiu!!"

"The Last Admiral!!"

"With your 50,000 troops, you must ensure the safety of the grain routes in the rear of our army, can you be sure?"

"In the end, I will vouch for the head of the item, and I will never let any thieves attack one of my food teams again!!"

Tanami Shu knelt on one knee and responded categorically.

There was no way, after the most effective means of support was defeated by the enemy, Li Zicheng could only use stupid methods and send more infantry to protect the transport team along the way, so as to prevent the cavalry of the He family army behind him from continuing to put pressure on his own grain route.

"Draw up a document for Li Xinshangshu in Luoyang, and let him raise another batch of grain and grass and transport it to Dongming County as soon as possible!"

Li Zicheng finally restrained the anger in his heart, and then began to make up for the impact and problems caused by the defeat in the rear.

Fortunately, Li Zicheng has experienced countless failures over the years, which has made him stronger-willed, although the temporary loss makes his heart ache, but it also makes him more combative, and he is more and more determined to exterminate the He family's army.

And Li Zicheng is actually too worried, He Sanjiang and their lone cavalry army have been making trouble behind enemy lines for nearly a month, although the results they have caused in this month have brought a lot of trouble to the main army of Dashun, but in the same way, their losses are not small.

Especially yesterday and last night's three successive battles, although it dealt a great blow to the Dashun army, annihilating two Dashun formed armies in a row, as well as two batches of baggage transporting grain and grass materials, but correspondingly, the losses of the cavalry of the He family army were also extremely heavy.

Wounded the enemy 1,000 and lost 800, the battle of Lianfan exhausted the physical strength of the cavalry of the He family's army, until the final battle with the diehards of Li Jin's cavalry, in fact, the He family's army was also at the end of the crossbow, although he wanted to continue to expand the results, but he also did not have the physical strength and ability, and still let the Dashun cavalry run away almost half of the number of sergeants.

And the losses of the He Jiajun cavalry army, when they were on the scene after the war, the soldiers who could still insist on standing on the battlefield were actually less than 2,000, and the rest were either injured and weak, or unfortunately died.

With the remaining number of cavalry, if you want to make a big move behind the enemy, it is a little wishful thinking, after defeating the Dashun cavalry in one fell swoop, Li Zicheng will definitely not give the He family army more opportunities to sabotage his own back, with his strength, he will definitely send more infantry back to support, and optimize the baggage of sporadic transportation, and the next grain route will inevitably be more cautious and large-scale.

Therefore, after defeating the Dashun cavalry, He Sanjiang had already led people to start withdrawing from the wilderness and detouring back the army.

Although behind the enemy, but He Sanjiang and Caozhou Baiyushan their contact is not small, every ten years there are soldiers to meet with him, report the war in Caozhou to himself and report back the situation on his side, so that the two main generals who let them fight separately can also communicate with each other, so as not to be confused.

At this time, outside the city of Caozhou Mansion, the stalemate between Bai Yushan and Liu Zongmin's two armies had already been informed in the news sent ten years ago, and it was also because of the stalemate between the front line and the other party that He Sanjiang wanted to make a big move in the rear to disperse most of the Chinese army that the enemy had not yet entered the battlefield.

The reason why Li Zicheng and other main forces have been grinding between the roads is naturally because the army is too bloated, which makes it really inconvenient for them to move, and secondly, it is also Li Zicheng's calculation, wanting to let Liu Zongmin's forward grind Bai Yushan after exhaustion, his belated main force can take the opportunity to kill this stubborn army with one blow.

It's just that the plan between the battlefields is more thorough, and when it is really put into reality, there will always be such and such accidents, Li Zicheng's main force of the Chinese army originally followed Liu Zongmin's forward, and now it is to distribute some troops to guard at important passes, and at the same time, because of the harassment and attack of the cavalry of the He family's army, so that their own losses are not small, under the successive actions, before they wait for the main army to arrive at the battlefield, unconsciously its strength is less than seventy or eighty thousand, and now the Chinese army is not more than tens of thousands compared to the army of the forward Liu Zongmin.

He Sanjiang's purpose of leading the cavalry to harass the enemy's rear has been achieved, so the next thing to see is the contest between each other on the front line.

Speaking of He Sanjiang, they are also a little resentful, if the base camp let themselves rebel before, they can take advantage of the fact that the Dashun army is not aware of it, and directly reflexively attack back, plus Han Yao, Wei Long, Shi Ran and other generals who are still lurking in the Dashun army, they dare not say that they will cripple Dashun in one fell swoop, but they can also make the other party have a small loss, and they will never be sent by the other party to attack themselves like now, so that they are in such a passive place.

However, complaining is complaining, although it is not very clear what the intention of the base camp is, and now He Sanjiang and they will not be doing unnecessary chagrin, and have been trying their best to narrow the gap between each other, so that they can hold this wave of defense line.

By the time He Sanjiang and the others returned to Caozhou Mansion in a big circle, the battlefield between Liu Zongmin's army and Baiyushan outside the city had advanced to a few miles outside Caozhou City.
