It's too late, it's fast, life and death, Li Sanshi shouted, at the moment when the war horse was about to fall to the ground, he threw off the horse's pedals, jumped up in the air, jumped behind Liu Qi, his legs tightly clamped the horse's belly, and at the moment when Liu Qi turned back and wanted to resist, he held his head with his left hand, held the waist knife with his right hand, and touched his neck sharply, and blood suddenly gushed out along the knife crack at the neck, splashing Li Sanshi's face all over his body.

Li Sanshi still ignored himself, and along the gap in the armor, he chopped off Liu Qi's head with a knife, and the headless corpse shook with the horse's hooves and was planted.

Li Sanshi pulled the reins of the horse, stabilized the war horse under his crotch, held Liu Qi's head in his left hand, raised the waist knife in his right hand, and screamed in the direction where Wang Yuncheng was.

The knights of the imperial camp were greatly encouraged by this scene, and they all howled sharply, and their purple faces were full of unscrupulous madness!

The knights of the left army were frightened, and the offensive involuntarily weakened, because of Li Sanshi's brave performance, the morale of both sides obviously changed.

Seeing that Li Sanshi continued to rush towards the middle camp with a hideous face, Wang Yuncheng, known as the "Iron Cavalry King", was also aroused a trace of anger, his face was angry, and he quickly took off the riding bow from behind the saddle, pulled out an arrow, pulled the bow and drew the arrow, and the arrow flew out with a swish.

This arrow did not shoot Li Sanshi, but shot at his horse, and when an arrow was shot, Wang Yuncheng's men did not stop, and fired two arrows in a row, still shooting horses. In the face of the galloping knight, shooting horses is obviously higher than shooting people, and at this time, Li Sanshi is only about 20 steps away from Wang Yuncheng.

Although Wang Yuncheng's first arrow and the second arrow were missed, the third arrow successfully shot into the horse's left eye, and the horse was in pain, neighing, and threw Li Sanshi off the horse.

Li Sanshi hurriedly shrank his head in a panic, put his shoulders together, and landed on the ground with the thickest part of the skin and flesh behind his shoulders. I finally got up and still felt a splitting headache, the internal organs in my abdomen rolled violently, the river and the sea were turned over for a while, and the mouth was fishy and sweet, and I couldn't help but squirt a mouthful of blood, and I used a knife to stop myself from falling.

Seeing that Li Sanshi was finally hit by an arrow and fell off his horse, Wang Yuncheng was in ecstasy, and hurriedly sent dozens of personal guard knights to harvest his life.

Dozens of royal horsemen brandished swords and spears, and quickly pressed towards Li Sanshi, with cruel smiles in their eyes, as if they had seen that he was about to be dismembered by a knife.

Seeing this, a few of the more than a dozen royal knights behind Li Sanshi immediately turned their horses' heads and ran towards the place where Li Sanshi landed, trying to pull him back on the horse, while the remaining royal knights were responsible for intercepting the royal horsemen who were rushing over.

As soon as the two sides met, several people were cut down and fell off their horses, including royal knights and royal horses.

Without the brave Li Sanshi as the front, he continued to open the way and break the siege, and the left cavalry scattered around breathed a sigh of relief, and under the command of the military academy, they re-lined up, and the knights of the imperial camp were gradually entangled by the left cavalry who rushed up wave after wave, and fell into a war of attrition.

Although the knights of the imperial camp were not afraid of death, after all, because they had fought for too long, they could not recuperate for a long time, and they were extremely tired, and they gradually could not resist the troops from the left side that surged up from all sides, revealing their defeat, and one by one the bloodied warriors were cut down and fell off their horses.

At this time, the cavalry on the left had successfully formed a four-sided encirclement. More than 200 royal knights were divided and surrounded in the battle circle, and the royal knights were in high spirits when they pursued the rout, and there was almost no damage, but when they were on the way back, they fell into a crisis, and the damage was serious, and it was the end of a regimental annihilation.

Just when the knights of the imperial camp in the battle circle were a little desperate, the cavalry on the left who was surrounded suddenly had a commotion, and then there were bursts of fighting outside the battle circle.

At the critical moment, Zhu Dadian sent the chief soldier Zhang Tianlu and the chief soldier Huang Binqing each with 300 personal guards to go out of the city to relieve the siege.

With the addition of 600 new troops, the encirclement that the left army had finally formed was suddenly broken through by Zhang and Huang. The two sides were entangled and fought, and the situation began to turn against the cavalry on the left.

Seeing that it was their own men and horses coming to the rescue, the morale of the knights of the imperial camp was greatly boosted, and they mustered up their spare strength to fight and kill. The knights on the left were demoralized, their fighting spirit gradually lost, and one by one they changed from offensive to defensive, and the two sides were once again entangled in a struggle

More than 1,000 horsemen against more than 800 horsemen, the numerical advantage is no longer there, and if you continue to entangle, you will only lose both.

Seeing this, Wang Yuncheng knew that it was impossible to encircle and annihilate this elite cavalry team in Jiujiang City at this moment, and his face was full of resentment and regret, so he knew that he would bring more people and horses over. After spitting hatefully on the ground, he reluctantly gave the order to withdraw.

As the horn of the withdrawal was sounded, the cavalry on the left got rid of their opponents as if they had been amnestied, and retreated like a tide with Wang Yuncheng's banner of the Chinese army.

Zhang and Huang had already obtained Zhu Dadian's secret order in advance, and they did not have an advantage in terms of troops, so they did not pursue. After leaving dozens of horsemen to be in charge of the sentry, the rest dismounted one after another and cleaned up the battlefield.

After a fierce battle, the battlefield was full of corpses, including knights of the imperial camp and rebels, blood flowing like a stream, broken spears and blades, broken limbs and arms, and some ownerless horses kept circling in circles, snorting.

The surviving more than 200 knights of the imperial camp, although their armor was messy at this time, even people and horses, and they were wheezing, they all showed joy. A few of the arrows on the body had not yet been removed, and the blood dripped down the body, rattling, staining the yellow earth on the ground.

When cleaning the battlefield, after learning from the number of severed heads that the corpses left by the knights of the left army reached as many as 300, Zhang Tianlu was shocked, three hundred horsemen against 1,500 horsemen, and he could still kill 300 Liaodong soldiers, the main force of Zuozhen, is the combat power of the knights of the new army in the imperial camp so perverted? Isn't it rumored that I've only been training for half a year?

Zhang Tianlu didn't expect that those hundreds of knights of the new army of the imperial camp could burst out with such a powerful combat power, and the total number of his cronies was only four or five hundred. He had every reason to believe that after facing the more than 1,000 Liaodong Iron Cavalry on the left alone, he was afraid that he would be wiped out in a few rounds.

powerful artillery; sophisticated and sharp firearms; 10% armor rate; Disciplined, forbidden foot soldiers; Fierce cavalry; The performance of the Son of Heaven's imperial camp in the battle to defend the city, in just a few days, has given Zhang Tianlu too much surprise and shock.

"Disciplined, sharp-armed, luxuriously equipped, an absolute tiger and wolf division! Back then, Qi Dashuai's Qi family army was afraid that this would be the case. I heard that there are tens of thousands of such an army in Beijing, and there seem to be 10,000 or 20,000 in the army that came to help, how much strength does our son of heaven have not yet revealed? Zuo Liangyu is afraid that this time he will be kicked on the iron plate! If you don't get it right, you will become the object of the court's prestige. ”

Standing on the chaotic battlefield, the more Zhang Tianlu thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he unconsciously felt a trace of fear. Some subtle thoughts before defending the city have long been blown away by the wind after seeing the combat power of the imperial camp. Although his ability to command the army is not good, his vision is not bad.

If the imperial court really has tens of thousands of such troops, Zuo Liangyu's 30,000 or 40,000 soldiers are definitely not enough to fight, and it will be finished sooner or later. Fortunately, he was not confused and was instigated by those Donglin rebels, so he was able to stand on the side of the imperial court.

Fighting with such an army is a nightmare!

It's just that I don't know which is stronger or weaker between them and the Tartars, if they can really block the Tartars and rule the river, even the Northern Expedition to Zhongxing Daming may not be impossible! It seems that there is still a future for such a court mixer.

Looking up at the gradually setting sunset, Zhang Tianlu muttered to himself.

And Zhang Tianlu held the same idea as Zhang Tianfu, Huang Binqing and others, they are not blind, the powerful combat power of the imperial camp army has been vividly demonstrated in this siege battle, and the left soldiers were beaten by firearms so that they could not even get close to the root of the wall.
