……
Take advantage of his illness and ask for his life.
Zhu Dadian saw that the rebels retreated in a hurry and the formation was scattered, knowing that the opportunity was rare, he hurriedly recruited Li Sanshi, a guerrilla cavalry general of the B battalion of Zhongwu Town (the righteous brother of the deputy general Ma Xiong), and said: "The chaotic army has withdrawn in a hurry, the army formation has been chaotic, and the opportunity cannot be lost. ”
Li Sanshi was tall and big, wearing an eight-petal hat and an iron-tipped helmet, and wearing a fine iron chain mail.
Zhu Dadian said arrogantly: "When the general goes out of the city to kill the enemy, the governor will personally beat the drum for the warriors!" ”
Li Sanshi was flattered, blushed, and patted his chest to ensure that he completed the task.
When he got off the city, he turned over his horse and ordered three hundred knights from the imperial camp, all of whom had been trained by the chief instructor Liu Zhaoji's system, many of whom were originally old horse bandits and had a very solid foundation in horsemanship.
In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, before Li Sanshi was captured and surrendered to King Chengfu, they were all old brothers who had followed Li Sanshi and Ma Xiong in the Xu and Lu generations for many years.
After entering Nanjing with King Fu, he went through the strong training of Liu Zhaoji, the former Liaodong general soldier who was good at cavalry warfare. As soon as the salary, food and salary keep up, the morale of each is high, enough to fight one-on-one with the Tartars!
Since following Zhu Dadian to Jiujiang, after seeing their superb riding, Zhu Dadian was very pleased, because the number of cavalry is small, they have always been used as the last killer weapon. At this moment, the left army was defeated and retreated, and it was the right time to use it.
After Li Sanshi's sharp gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, he suddenly raised his chest, swung his fist too much, blushed, and said loudly: "Prepare to go out of the city, and kill the thief with Ben!" ”
"Kill the thief! Kill the thief! The three hundred elite iron horsemen shouted in unison, with high fighting spirit, majestic momentum, and deafening.
Three hundred cavalry entered the Ximen Urn City in order, and the main city gate behind them slowly closed, and the whole team waited for the order to attack.
"Open the gates!"
The gates of the city slowly opened, and the drawbridge was lowered.
"All teams ready!"
Li Sanshi held a long knife in his hand and took the lead, followed closely by the rest of the knights.
"Kill!"
At the head of the city, Zhu Dadian Jiaye walked to the war drum sonorously, and personally vibrated the armor and beat the drum to cooperate, and the rumbling drum was inspiring.
Under the city, Li Sanshi marched forward bravely, with three hundred iron horsemen straight like arrows from the string, quickly swept over the moat, the outer trench, and rushed straight into the left army formation on the other side of the river.
The left army originally arranged a lot of rejecting horses around the military formation, just to prevent the Ming cavalry from charging into battle, but after Zuo Liangyu gave the withdrawal order, because of the hasty retreat, it had long been out of formation. The rejection of the horse was also crooked, and it was too late to clean up.
When Li Sanshi's cavalry team rushed to arrive, the infantry of the left army who ran at the end became ghosts under the sword.
Zuo Liangyu did not expect that the Ming army in the city would have the courage to go out of the city to raid and kill, and in the case of extreme physical discomfort, he held on to his sick body, and ordered the transfer of the deputy general Wang Yuncheng, and led more than 1,000 personal horsemen from his headquarters to intercept the cavalry pursuing from the city.
Wang Yuncheng bowed down and took the order.
Wang Yuncheng started with the army, subordinate to Zuo Liangyu, as a deputy general, because of his superb riding skills, his subordinates are cavalry, so he was nicknamed "Iron Cavalry King". In the first year of Hongguang (1645), Zuo Liangyu suddenly fell ill and died, and his son Zuo Mengeng attacked Nanjing and was defeated by the general Jingnan Hou Huang Degong, Wang Yuncheng and Ma Jinzhong did not follow, but went to Hunan to seek refuge in He Tengjiao, the governor of Huguang, and became one of the thirteen towns of Huguang.
Looking down from the city to the city, the left army was crowded, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was the enemy or me, and the Ming troops on the head of the city only saw a general flag with the word "Li", which was always held high, and among the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the left army, they kept rushing left and right, and they were invincible. As a result, the left soldiers could not retreat in an orderly manner, and some of them even gradually evolved from retreat to rout, trampling on each other, and suffering heavy casualties.
With the miraculous effect of the raid, Li Sanshi and the others really had the addiction of killing thieves, and everywhere they passed, a stump and broken arm, blood splashed all over their faces, just hurriedly wiped it with their hands, and then continued to fight, they were slashing frantically, while shouting refreshment. Huang Binqing, Zhang Tianlu and other generals of the general army who watched the battle at the head of the city were stunned and envious, and they also asked for orders to lead the headquarters to go out of the city and pursue the rebels with the imperial cavalry, and get the credit, but they were rejected by Zhu Dadian without hesitation, and it was a great achievement to let them defend the city with their hearts.
After the three hundred knights of Li Sanshi's department rushed and killed for a while, many of the generals of the left army had slowly calmed down from the initial panic, and saw that the number of Ming cavalry chasing out of the city was not much, and they all plucked up their courage. planned to take advantage of the formation to drag the pursuing Ming cavalry to death in the infantry formation.
After they began to counterattack, the three hundred knights of the imperial camp suddenly felt a great increase in pressure, and the speed of the horse gradually slowed down, Li Sanshi's legs tightly clamped the horse's belly, the long knife waved, slashed left and killed, the courage was abnormal, and he kept sweeping away the left soldiers who surrounded him, and then continued to rush and kill, and scattered the left soldiers who tried to organize the array, and the other knights were also fighting separately with spears, and many left soldiers were killed by the cavalry before they could open the formation.
However, the number of left soldiers was too much, and they scattered a wave, organized another wave, and gradually surrounded it, wanting to besiege Li Sanshi and others, and after killing several waves of left soldiers one after another, the three hundred knights gradually felt struggling, during which more than a dozen horsemen were picked off by the left soldiers with spears, and before they woke up from the dizzy state, they were surrounded by the left soldiers, and hacked to death.
In just a short period of time, Li Sanshi and others had unconsciously pursued and killed for several miles in one go, almost rushing to the central military camp of the left army. The number of people who were really hacked to death and injured by Li Sanshi and others was far less than those who were trampled to death.
At this time, it was almost six or seven miles away from Jiujiang West City, and the sound of war drums on the city was still continuous, but it did become high and dull, and it was a message that the three hundred knights could collect their troops and return to the city.
Li Sanshi also knew the purpose of the military lord sending himself out of the city to pursue the rebels, and how many rebels were killed and injured was still secondary, mainly to boost the morale of the soldiers and civilians in Jiujiang City, and now the rebels have been smashed by them and embarrassed, which has greatly boosted their morale, and their goal has been achieved, and there is no need to take risks again.
If there is a further battle, the speed of the horses will become slower and slower, and the advantage of cavalry mobility will be lost, and at that time, once they are surrounded by heavy troops, even if they can break through, they will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. What's more, the rebels also have cavalry, and under the pursuit of the cavalry, the knights of the imperial camp who have become tired after returning from the charge are even more auspicious. One is not good, it is very likely to be wiped out by the rebel cavalry. Not only is the credit of the pursuit gone, but the morale of the soldiers and civilians in his own city will also be sluggish, and the results of many previous tricks will be in vain, and he Li Sanshi will not be able to bear this responsibility even if he dies.
Almost at the same time, the rebel camp not far away suddenly remembered a rush of drums, Li Sanshi and the others looked at the source of the drums, only to see the smoke and dust billowing there, the horses' hooves trampling, the preliminary estimate is that there are no less than a thousand cavalry, are beating horses and rushing towards their position.
