"Damn, Zhou Guodong, Tan Xiao! You're fierce, aren't you? Lao Tzu is consumed with you today, how long will you be rampant? ”

Seeing that the camps were breached, and the troops in the battalions either surrendered or were ruthlessly annihilated, he was simply distressed with blood, which was all the old subordinates who had followed him to fight for many years, relying on them to settle down in the troubled times, and thousands of elite soldiers had been folded in half a day, and it would take a long time to recover in the future.

"When this battle is over, we must scrape more oil and water from Tan Xiao and Zhou Guodong, people can let them go, and those flintlock pistols and artillery must be left!" Although the battle situation was unfavorable, the party did not lose confidence in victory, and began to think about how to make up for the losses.

In the pre-war preparations, he in line with the idea of ensuring that nothing goes wrong, he has played a lot of wealth in all aspects, and repaired seven camps in a row, although the offensive of the Chu army is unexpectedly sharp, but in any case, it is impossible to capture all the camps in one day, after this half-day of fierce fighting, seeing that the sun has turned west, as long as it drags on until tonight, Liu Fangliang and He Zhen can close the encirclement, so that Tan Xiao and Zhou Guodong have no way to escape.

As long as this battle is won, all losses can be made up, the party Shousu undertakes the most arduous task, you can confidently ask Liu Fangliang and He Zhen for more trophies, the power of those flintlock pistols and artillery, he has personally understood, if his troops are replaced with these equipment, it is estimated that they can also defeat the Western Army head-on like Tan Xiao and Zhou Guodong, instead of being chased everywhere and fleeing like rabbits like before.

"Pass on the order of the country's generals, and if there are escapees, behead! Those who win the head of the thief will be rewarded with one or two silver in the first class! ”

The most important thing now is to maintain the crumbling morale of the army, lest the back of these camps collapse without a fight, and even tonight can not hold out, and at the last moment before the encirclement is closed, the Chu army successfully broke through, the party guard did not hesitate to award a rich reward, and also sent 3,000 elite reinforcements to the largest camp, even if the artillery of the Chu army collapsed the camp wall, it was necessary to insist on "street fighting" in the camp, as far as possible to delay the advance of the Chu army.

"That's about it!"

Looking at the sun in the west, the heart of the party Shousu is a lot more steady, the area in the camp is limited, the three thousand reinforcements sent have reached the limit, no matter how many troops are useless, these three thousand reinforcements have been listed as battle losses in the heart of the party Shousu, as long as they fight to the death and do not retreat, they can hold out until dark.

At this time, the Chu army was still attacking a camp in front, and they didn't care about intercepting the three thousand reinforcements, they entered the largest camp very smoothly, and then deployed in place, waiting for the attack of the Chu army, and the Chu army did not let them wait too long, and swept away the defenders in the front camp like a devastating one, and forced towards the largest camp.

The same three-sided enclosure.

The artillery was lined up.

The cavalry and infantry held the position to prevent the Qinwang army from leaving the camp to counterattack.

At the beginning, the deployment of the Chu army was similar to the previous times, but there were more troops and more frequent transfers, although Dang Shousu and his generals were nervous, but they were not in a hurry, anyway, the longer the Chu army dragged on, the better it would be for themselves, and it was understandable that the Chu army's pre-war preparations were as full as possible, after all, this camp was the largest camp, and three thousand reinforcements had just been sent.

Gradually, Dang Shousu found that something was wrong.

The Chu army transferred more and more troops, and there was an infantry of about 5,000 people constantly moving to the northeast, and finally deviated from the main battlefield, stuck in the middle of Ningyuan City and the company camp outside the city and stopped, looking at the banner was Zhou Guodong, who had just crossed the river.

"What do Tan Xiao and Zhou Guodong want to do, is it to guard against reinforcements in the city?"

Dang Shousu has been on the battlefield for a long time, and quickly guessed Zhou Guodong's intentions - Zhou Guodong and Tan Xiao have just arrived in Ningyuan, they are not familiar with the place, lack of intelligence sources, they should not know yet, Liu Fangliang and He Zhen are quickly closing the encirclement, the situation of the Chu army is already very dangerous, when using troops, they still try to be as stable as possible, Ningyuan City and the company camps outside the city constitute a corner, if the largest camp is in an emergency, they can go out of the city at any time to support and attack the weak flank of the Chu army, so Zhou Guodong personally led the troops, Cut off the connection between Ningyuan City and the company camp outside the city.

This explanation is reasonable, and Dang Shousu scrutinized it again, convinced that he had seen through Zhou Guodong's intentions, and there should be no other possibility, but there was a feeling of uneasiness in his heart that always lingered, and he faintly felt as if he had ignored a very important issue.

Look again, see what's going on!

In front of the largest camp, the Chu army had completed the deployment, but still did not launch an attack, but moved and adjusted back and forth in the rear formation, Dang Shousu looked at it for a while, his brows gradually wrinkled, and suddenly slapped the camp wall hard, and shouted: "No! The thief is going to run! ”

The formation of the Chu army is a normal attack formation on the surface, but I always feel that there is something awkward, at first glance it looks like a fierce beast that is ready to attack at any time, but in a quiet way, it has blocked the road for those companies and battalions to counterattack, and it can be turned to defense at any time.

This is to survive with a broken tail!

Zhou Guodong blocked Ningyuan City, Tan Xiao sealed the company camp outside the city, if the Chu army forcibly rushed onto the road at this time, it was really unstoppable, although Zhou Guodong would inevitably fall into a heavy siege after the break, and even be wiped out by the Qin Wang army, but it could cover the troops in front to break through to the east.

Dang Shousu stood on tiptoe fiercely, blocked the dazzling west sun with his hands, and looked at the rear of the Chu army, sure enough, there was a force there that was quietly moving to the northeast, passing through the dilapidated camp that was still smoking gunpowder, if you didn't pay special attention, it was easy to be ignored, but Dang Shousu had noticed that there were not only a lot of cavalry in this team, but also several tightly covered carriages, which were tightly guarded by the Chu soldiers in the middle, and the surroundings were heavily guarded.

"Quick! Fast! While the old boy is still confused, hurry up! ”

In order to confuse the Qin Wang Army, Tan Xiao left the flag in the rear army, and led another one to escort Emperor Longwu to break through, seeing that Ningyuan City and the company camp outside the city were still quietly not moving, his heart was nervous and excited, this sound hit the west, and the strategy of hiding from the sky and the sea was really successful.

The Chu army hurriedly chased all the way from Lianzhou, the grain and grass brought was extremely limited, if it was not for the defeat of Guo Weijing, "the grain to the enemy", now the grain is now out of food, now the whole army has only three days of rations, and the forage required for the war horse is even more scarce, in this case it is difficult to defeat the Qinwang army and the Western army from the front, only like a gecko to throw off a tail (Zhou Guodong) after the break, covering the breakthrough of Emperor Longwu.

Even if Dang Shousu is dragged by Zhou Guodong, this road will still be surrounded and intercepted by other Qinwang troops, after Tan Xiao protects Emperor Longwu and sets off first, the follow-up troops will also follow in turn, leaving only 5,000 infantry for Zhou Guodong, whether he can break through safely in the end depends on luck.

"The Son of Heaven moved to Nanjing, just like Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty entered Xuchang, the general trend of the world can be determined, even if I Zhou Guodong dies in battle, what does it matter?" The impassioned words when they broke up seemed to be still echoing in their ears, Tan Xiao was also fighting to break the queen at the beginning, but Zhou Guodong has always been strong in front of him, Tan Xiao was scolded, and finally did not rob him.

"Don't worry, I also came over in the wind and waves, and the Manchu Tartars are all right, just rely on Liu Fangliang and Dang Shousu, how could they hurt me? Besides, won't I surrender at the last minute? Does Liu Fangliang really dare to kill me? ”

Zhou Guodong has no fear, and his words have completely dispelled Tan Xiao's concerns, with the strong Chu army as the backing, Zhou Guodong should be able to save his life even if he is defeated and captured.

"Hurry, don't grind, hurry up for Lao Tzu, you must spend the spring tonight!"

The last soldier ran by, Tan Xiao turned his head, glanced at Zhou Guodong's general flag in the distance, and secretly said in his heart again, urging the horse to chase the convoy in front.

"Bang bang bang" cannon sounded, the slow response of the Qin Wang army finally woke up, the camp gate and the city gate opened at the same time, the party Shousu personally led the army to chase and kill from behind, and Zhou Guodong after the break to start a fierce battle, at this time both sides no longer left their strength, the party Shousu elite out, the Chu army guns and cannons roared, the Lianshui River killing sound shook the sky, covering the clouds and the sun.

The Chu army that broke through was unstoppable, and soon got on the east road of the city, one of the big cars, Emperor Longwu obliquely propped up his body that had not recovered from a serious illness, and looked at the battlefield not far away, he knew that the people who were fighting with the Chu army were loyal to his Qinwang army, and now there was only a short distance of 1,000 steps between him and him.

"Is that a soldier of the party? There must be tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, right? This idiot! What did you just do? He hid so many soldiers and horses in the city, and he didn't dare to fight with the Chu army, and it was in vain that I trusted him so much......"

The expression on Emperor Longwu's face was uncertain, full of the helplessness of "the country is broken", it's time for you to be a coward, why are you waiting desperately? Hurry up and kill me and save me!

"Your Majesty hasn't seen enough? Don't look at it, if Dang Shousu had the ability to keep His Majesty, he wouldn't wait until now to be in a hurry. Yao Qisheng sat opposite Emperor Longwu, and watched his every move closely with two guards, seeing that Emperor Longwu still had illusions, he sneered: "If Your Majesty is fine, you might as well think more about how to revive the dynasty after going to Nanjing, revitalize the Ming Dynasty, and expel Jiannu from the customs as soon as possible." ”

Emperor Longwu's body shook slightly, the curtain of the car slipped from his hands, and he could no longer see the battlefield outside, only feeling the wheels rolling, and justice went east without hesitation.
