Two thousand thieves who rushed towards the Tiger Master rode up, and in the blink of an eye, only two hundred people in the back row were still alive. The two hundred horsemen who were still alive in the www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion seemed to have been knocked out of their souls, as if they had met the heavenly soldiers, and they roared loudly and rode their horses back. They didn't even dare to stop even running past the Chinese camp where the thieves were offering, and they were still fleeing to the east.

Seeing that the cavalry was completely wiped out in an instant, there was a stir in the old camp of the Chinese army that offered the thieves. Probably because the way the Tiger Ben Division killed the Xiao Cavalry was too strong, Zhang Xianzhong did not dare to put the most elite old battalion into the battle on the southern flank. On the contrary, Zhang Xianzhong's Chinese army suddenly sounded the horn of withdrawing troops.

Blowing the horn of escape, the 2,000-old battalion of thieves took more than a dozen of Zhang Xianzhong's main generals and fled to the east.

Xiong Wencan stood on a small mound and saw Li Zhi using a cannon from seventy paces away, and in a blink of an eye, he killed two thousand thieves, and he was in high spirits. Unexpectedly, Li Zhi's combat effectiveness was so strong, and the combat strength of these 8,000 people was enough to turn the tide of the battle and let Xiong Wencan's army win calmly. At this time, the southern flank of the sacrifice thief had no troops, and the officers and troops could outflank the middle of the sacrifice thief from the south wing and defeat the sacrifice thief.

But he didn't expect that after the thief Xiaoqi was annihilated, he had no will to continue fighting at all, and fled directly with the elite old battalion.

As soon as the thieves fled, the entire camp of the thieves collapsed.

The 6,000 "horse army" who sacrificed the thieves had horses, and they could turn their horses' heads and gallop to the east, escaping the butcher's knives of the officers and soldiers. And the 10,000 foot soldiers who sacrificed the thieves were unlucky, they had no horses, they could not escape as fast as the cavalry of officers and soldiers, and for every hundred paces they fled, they had to be put down by the officers and soldiers. The thousands of cavalry of the officers and soldiers raised their eyebrows, as if they had suddenly woken up, and chased and killed the thieves' foot soldiers like cats and mice.

The cavalry was chasing the deserters, and the generals of the officers and soldiers looked at Li Zhi's soldiers and horses.

Fengsi General Mu Wenshou was shocked by the strength of Li Zhi's military horse, and stood in the middle of the battlefield in a daze. It wasn't until his Chinese army general rushed to him and asked him if he was chasing him that he reacted and shouted: "Chase!" Hunt down the sacrificial thief! ”

Zuo Liangyu, the commander of the reinforcement army, looked at the defeated enemy army, glanced at Li Zhi's troops, and frowned a little uneasily.

This force is too strong, and it has exceeded Zuo Liangyu's imagination. Encountering such an ally made Zuo Liangyu feel inexplicably lonely.

Zhao Zhu, a general under Zuo Liangyu, looked at Li Zhi's military horse in a bit of a daze. During yesterday's discussion, Li Zhi said that he didn't believe in repelling the thief horse army, but now seeing Li Zhi slaughtering chickens and dogs, Zhao Zhu knows how strong Li Zhi's soldiers and horses are. Thinking of his provocative remarks against Li Zhi yesterday, Zhao Zhu couldn't help but blush.

Huang Degong, the deputy general of the Beijing camp, gradually woke up from his drinking, and he looked at Li Zhi's troops on the southern flank, and had a sense of stupidity. Li Zhi's soldiers and horses were too strong, and in a blink of an eye, he wiped out the two thousand thieves. Artillery salvo, fire salvo, such combat effectiveness has exceeded the concept of officers and soldiers in the late Ming Dynasty, even Grandpa Qi's Qi family army did not have such combat effectiveness, right? Compared with Li Zhi's ferocious firearms soldiers, his Beijing soldiers and horses are simply sheep.

Although there was a big victory in front of him, Huang Degong couldn't get excited. After this war, I must consult Li Zhi and learn the essence of his firearms army.

If you just use firearms, won't your own fighting skills be useless?

In the Chinese army of the official army, 2,000 newly recruited Cantonese soldiers were jubilant, celebrating their great victory.

Zhang Guowei, the governor of An 0qing beside Xiong Wencan, said in a trembling voice: "Prime Minister, great victory, really great victory!" These 10,000 sacrificial thieves are in danger! ”

Liu Yuanbin, the eunuch of the Jingying Supervision Army, laughed, stroked the war horse and said: "Our family knew yesterday that there was such a great victory today!" ”

Xiong Wencan was overjoyed, and his face flushed with excitement on the horse. He shouted, "Chase! The whole army chased and killed the thieves and beheaded all these 10,000 foot soldiers here! ”

The flag was unfurled, and Xiong Wencan's order was conveyed to all armies. The officers and soldiers of the various units were ordered to chase the thieves across the Yonghe River and chase them all the way to the east.

But among the soldiers and horses chasing past like a tide, the 6,000 people under Zuo Liangyu's command stood still like a reef in the waves. Obviously, Zuo Liangyu did not obey Xiong Wencan's pursuit order.

Xiong Wencan led the Chinese army to chase to the east, and when he rode in front of Zuo Liangyu's army, Xiong Wencan found Zuo Liangyu with a black face, and asked loudly: "Zuo Liangyu, why did your unit disobey the order and pursue the thief?" ”

With Li Zhibu's help, Xiong Wencan felt that he had a lot of confidence, and he spoke louder to Zuo Liangyu.

Zuo Liangyu glanced at Xiong Wencan and said, "The thief is the best at ambushing!" Poor Kou Mo Chase! ”

Xiong Wencan scolded loudly: "My 40,000 army is pursuing, and more than 10,000 thieves are ambushed?" You're raising your own self! The old man will explain the reason to the Son of Heaven after this war! Cure you for not listening to the dispatch! ”

Zuo Liangyu said coldly: "Please make a house!" ”

"You!!"

Xiong Wencan was so angry with Zuo Liangyu that he couldn't speak. He turned his head and shouted loudly against the Yue army: "We will catch up and annihilate all these 10,000 sacrificial thieves." ”

The 2,000 Cantonese troops sang loudly and chased after Xiong Wencan to the east.

On the south wing of the battlefield, Li Zhi looked at the thieves fleeing in embarrassment, frowned and said, "Why do I think something is wrong?" ”

Zhong Feng, the head of the trapping regiment, stepped forward and said: "My lord, this thief is running too fast, we only beat him with 2,000 horses, and he will turn around and run, which is a bit unreasonable." It stands to reason that he should have sent a few thousand foot soldiers to try ours again. And although the defeated army lost its flag and abandoned its armor, it was defeated and not dispersed..."

Xue Sanku came up and said, "Division commander, or the thief was frightened by our firepower, and he lost his fighting spirit!" And he fled! ”

Li Zhi thought for a while and asked, "What are the thieves near An0qing, and how many soldiers and horses are there?" ”

Zheng Kaicheng said loudly: "My lord, according to the information obtained from the reconnaissance of the troops and horses under the command of the prime minister for half a month, there are also Liu Guoneng who broke into the sky, Zhang Tianlin, Cao Cao, Luo Rucai, Hui Dengxiang, and Li Wanqing, who shot the sky. ”

Among them, Liu Guoneng had an army of 120,000 and 17,000 soldiers and horses after removing the hungry soldiers. Zhang Tianlin had 80,000 soldiers and horses, and about 10,000 horses were cut out of the hungry soldiers. Luo Rucai had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and there were about 14,000 people who could fight. Whitten had 100,000 horses, and 14,000 were capable of fighting. Li Wanqing had 70,000 horses, and there were about 7,000 people who could fight. ”

Li Zhi calculated and said: "That is to say, with the horse army and the old camp that sacrificed the thieves, the soldiers and horses that the thieves nearby can fight are no more than 70,000 at most. ”

Zheng Kaicheng said: "Yes, my lord! ”

Li Zhi looked at Zuo Liangyu, who was unwilling to pursue the thief, thought about it, and said loudly: "Even if the thief's soldiers and horses are all here, we will also destroy him!" Pass my order, and the whole army will follow the prime minister to pursue the thief! ”

After chasing five miles, the official army had already crossed the Yonghe River far and killed 3,000 thieves. The cavalry of the official army was red-eyed, and kept swinging their swords and slashing at the thieves who fled for their lives in a panic.

The rout of the thieves chased Zhang Xianzhong's old camp, and the officers and soldiers chased the rout, all the way to the east.

Prime Minister Xiong Wencan's Chinese army, with Li Zhihu's division behind the palace, also chased across the Yonghe River with the army and chased to a valley. The valley is called the Valley of the Great Kings, six miles long and three miles wide, with green hills on both sides, and a small stream in the middle, with only one entrance and one exit.

The officers and soldiers continued to chase the routs in the valley, chasing and chasing, and suddenly heard a hideous laughter coming from the exit of the valley in front.

The laughter was so loud that it was evident that tens of thousands of people could laugh together. The laughter echoed back and forth in the valley, and it was particularly hideous.

Xiong Wencan's heart trembled when he heard that laughter.

"My lord, there is an army of thieves ahead!"

Xiong Wencan looked up suddenly, but saw that the exit of the valley was densely packed with thieves armed with swords, bows and arrows. On the head of the thief, the banner of the word "Liu" and "Hui" fluttered high.

The horse army and the old battalion of the thieves also rode there, holding high the banner of "Zhang".

Looking at the formation, there were at least 40,000 soldiers and horses standing in the middle of the valley, as if waiting for Xiong Wencan to throw himself into the net.

Scammed!

Xiong Wencan secretly said badly, and suddenly turned his head to look at the way he came.

From a distance, more than 30,000 rogue soldiers rushed in at the entrance of the valley where they came, blocking the officers and soldiers in the valley. These thieves did not know where to hide before, so that the officers and soldiers who were busy chasing and killing the thieves did not detect it. At this time, there were more than 70,000 rogue soldiers in front and behind.

The conflicted thieves are all united.

"I've been tricked, my life is over!"

Xiong Wencan only felt that his body was weak, and he almost fell off the horse. (To be continued.) )
