Li Maozu thought for a moment, frowned, patted the horse whip in his palm lightly, and ordered: "Ben Fu life, the whole army must not delay, immediately cheer up, march forward, and take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Ming army, catch him off guard!" ”

Yu Shizhong and Ma Jiaolin were overjoyed, and they didn't complain about the hot weather at this time, and hurriedly clasped their fists together and responded: "Please give an order!" ”

Li Maozu was full of spirits, stroked the whip immediately, and was full of pride, as if he had won the battle, he was complacent, and shouted loudly: "Order the general soldier Yu Shizhong, lead the headquarters of 3,000 soldiers, as the right wing of the army, immediately rush to Xinhua City, surround the left side of the Ming army, and don't let go of one!" ”

Yu Shizhong replied loudly: "The last general will obey the order!" ”

Li Maozu shouted again: "Order the general soldier Ma Jiaolin, lead the headquarters of 3,000 soldiers, as the left wing of the army, and also rush to the city of Xinhua, and Yu Shizhong's troops on the left and right, surround the Ming army, don't slack off!" Ben Fu led the Chinese army, rolled in, and annihilated the Ming army with the two general soldiers! ”

Ma Jiaolin agreed in a voice that was not inferior to Yu Shizhong, and then Li Maozu waved his horsewhip, and the two rushed to leave, rectifying their respective military horses.

Less rest, more than 10,000 Qing army troops, were told by their thousands of households that there was a Ming army in front of the way, those Ming soldiers had horses, very rich, killed the past and robbed their horses, it was a great achievement, as for what gold and silver things were collected, it belonged to the individual.

The subordinates of the three people, all of whom were Han people, had developed a very heavy bandit spirit when they were originally in the Ming army, and when they heard that there was a sweetness in front, they immediately cheered up, their eyes lit up, and they followed their respective generals and rushed forward with joy.

Li Maozu looked at the morale-boosting troops, stroked his beard with satisfaction, and couldn't stop laughing, and praised: "Yes, the military heart is available, the military heart is available!" ”

The Qing army almost ran to Xinhua, more than 10,000 people like a new daughter-in-law who was going to the market, and they couldn't wait for fear of missing something, and ran through the scorching sun for fear of missing something.

When the earthen wall of Xinhua City appeared in the field of vision, Li Maozu, who was riding on a tall horse, saw a column of cavalry lined up on the back wall at a glance.

"There are probably some people in the city, but the one who can fight is this thousand horsemen." Li Maozu squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, because the distance was still far away, he couldn't see it clearly, but the general outline could still be seen, and he immediately made a judgment, the thousand-man cavalry in front of him must be the main force of the Ming army.

Yu Shizhong and Ma Jiaolin's people have already whistled past from both sides, circled in a semi-circle, and bypassed the left and right sides of Xinhua City, they want to block the left and right sides, so that this group of Ming troops has nowhere to escape, once defeated, they can only flee into the city.

Li Maozu had already thrown the only 2,000 cavalry in his hands to the north gate of Xinhua City, which was the rear of the battlefield, when the Ming army was defeated and tried to flee through the city, it was inevitable to go from the north gate, and by that time, these two thousand people were a thunderous blow to the water dogs.

These arrangements are obvious, almost under the nose of the Ming army, the Qing soldiers swaggered, without concealment, the banner was very happy, for fear that the Ming army did not know the same shouting.

But the Ming cavalry under the city wall did not react, just hid under the shadow of the city wall as if hiding from the scorching sun, quietly watching the Qing army running around in formation.

Wang Huan was one of the members of this group of Ming troops, and he stood in the middle of the horizontal team, holding crossbow arrows, and his body was straight. Under the iron nose guard, a pair of eagle-like eyes stared at the Qing army's every move, radiating a calm and solemn light.

Li Dingguo stood beside him, also silently watching the appearance and movement of the Qing army, out of the head with the Qing army moving and a slight swing, like a stone statue majestic, until the Qing army formation was formed, roughly saw the intention, he gently turned his head to Wang Huan, and reminded in a low voice: "My lord, the Tartars are going to eat us in one bite." ”

Wang Huan squinted his eyes to resist the wind in the wilderness, and nodded slightly: "Unexpectedly, no matter who the Tartar Lord is, seeing that we are only a thousand people, they will have such thoughts." ”

Li Dingguo frowned and said: "But such a monkey is in a hurry, braving the scorching heat to run for thirty miles, and then going into battle without time to rest, it is a taboo for soldiers, soldiers must be very tired at the moment, their strength is exhausted, how to fight?" ”

Wang Huan smiled and grinned: "This is inertial thinking." ”

Li Dingguo was stunned: "Inertial thinking? What is Habitual Thinking? ”

Wang Huan patted his head and said apologetically: "Well, it's the meaning of habitual thinking, since the southern expedition of the Tartars, there have been almost no opponents, and there are no soldiers who dare to fight, although Li Maozu is a Han, but he also fought a lot of such battles with the banner soldiers, probably in his heart, except for the loyal battalion of the loyal battalion of blocking Yinxi, the other Ming officers and soldiers are all miscellaneous soldiers who are about to collapse at the touch of a button, and they are not worth mentioning, so he saw our thousands of people, and he has already underestimated the enemy from the ideological point of view, and he didn't take it seriously. ”

Li Dingguo understood, and suddenly said: "That's true, no wonder he is so big, my lord, it's better not to set up an ambush, the last general will directly lead the sons and daughters to rush into battle, see if I provoke Li Maozu to dare to despise us." ”

Wang Huan shook his head, looked around, and said solemnly: "No, every one of us is precious, until there is nothing to be done, there is no need to spend the lives of the brothers, the Great Ming Firearms are unparalleled, why not use your own strengths to attack the enemy?" ”

Li Dingguo was eager to try, he was good at using cavalry, and sweeping like the wind was his favorite way of fighting, but he admired Wang Huan's sharp firearms, and he also understood Wang Huan's hard work, and he also valued the lives of the soldiers under his command, so as soon as Wang Huan spoke, Li Dingguo nodded very simply in agreement.

"There are 3,000 people on the left and right, at least 7,000 on the front, and a team of cavalry is running behind us, most of them to block the north gate, each battalion is in its own position, and the formation is orderly, busy but not chaotic. Since there is no need to go out of the battle, Li Dingguo waited quietly, and began to have the leisure to evaluate the Qing army on the other side, he was an old soldier, and he could distinguish the strength and weakness with a sweep of his eyes. ”

"Knowing etiquette, righteousness and shame may not be able to do it." Wang Huan said indifferently: "The Ming Dynasty, the literal and hyphenated generation of the enemy and the traitor, there are more, not to mention anything else, just say that the head of Donglin, the famous talent spread all over the world, the money and benefits, this person is the official to the Hongguang Dynasty Rite Department Shangshu, is the second grade of the officer, when the Qing soldiers broke Nanjing, this person's wife Liu Ru persuaded him to commit suicide and martyrdom, he not only refused, but also shaved his hair and lowered the Tartars, and became a high-ranking official of the Qing Dynasty. ”

Wang Huan sighed, and said: "But one person is like this, it can be said that this person is evil, if you look up and down, a large number of people are like this, then there is a problem." ”

Li Dingguo listened attentively, silent, Wang Huan's meaning, he understood, the Ming Dynasty has been exhausted, corruption and erosion, it should be changed to the dynasty, the so-called emperor takes turns to sit, this year to my house, what he is talking about is the change of dynasty, there is a way of reincarnation, the Zhu family is dead, there is a character with his surname sitting on Jiuding, everyone changes the boss, and also works to earn money.

"However, surrendering Tartar is not the same as surrendering Li Zicheng." Wang Huan took a breath and said: "The Tartar foreign tribe, like the Mongols and the Jin people back then, is barbaric and absurd, as the so-called non-my people, their hearts will be different, surrendering the Tartars, it is as bad as changing the ancestors, if the Tartars are the lord of Kyushu, I want to rise again in the future, it will be difficult." ”

After speaking, Wang Huan put the end of the crossbow arrow, pointed to the front and said, "Okay, gossip and don't mention it, the Tartar has moved!" ”

Li Dingguo hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, in front of the phalanx of the Qing army platoon, a row of black pressed human heads pressed out, and when he looked roughly, there were about 2,000 people up and down, holding all kinds of weapons, shouting towards the Kuizhou army horizontal formation, running over.

"The Tartar formation is a little far away." Wang Huan weighed it, shook his head and sighed: "The Shenwei cannon can't hit it, don't ignite it for the time being, use crossbow arrows to shoot off this wave of people first." ”

The corners of Li Dingguo's mouth twitched, and he looked at Wang Huan with a strange expression, as if he was enduring something funny, even the muscles on his face jumped a few times, and replied in a changed voice: "The last general obeys orders!" ”

On the other side of the battlefield, Li Maozu stared at the reaction of the Kuizhou army with a closed breath, what he had just sent out was the Ming army soldiers who surrendered along the way on this trip to Huguang, according to the convention, the soldiers who had just surrendered must be used as vanguards, and they could only be included in the Han army sequence after gaining trust.

His headquarters soldiers, together with Yu Shizhong and Ma Jiaolin on both wings, did not move, seizing this short time to catch their breath, and at the same time to see if they could scare away the Ming army under the city wall with the impact of these soldiers and the coercion of the siege on all sides.

The soldiers who rushed into the battle, originally the subordinates of the plug Yinxi, surrendered without resistance when Li Maozu came over, docile as a group of quails, surrendered to the Qing army at this moment, but it was as fierce as a chicken blood, screaming and waving weapons, and pounced like a tiger in the mountains, just by momentum, no one could believe that this was the same group of people.

The general who led the army, who was originally a veteran of the guerrilla rank, was originally an old department with Ma Jiaolin, and he took refuge on the battlefield with almost no twists and turns.

More than 2,000 people, the cavalry is only more than 100 people, very skillfully cover the two sides, in the center, is the vast majority of the number of foot soldiers, these people are wearing, or the red uniforms of the Ming army, the white armor of the Kuizhou army is a red and a white contrast, others look like the Ming army is attacking the enemy.

The soldiers approached step by step, and soon rushed to a place a hundred paces away from the Kuizhou army, where they found very strangely that there were many circular holes dug in the ground, and the holes were as big as dustpans, and some were as big as a canopy, and they could easily fall into them, and they were very careful to pay attention to their feet as they passed through this section.

But no one wondered what these strange holes were for.

Under the city wall, the Kuizhou army sat on a horse, steadily raised the mountain-destroying crossbow in his hand, buckled the strings and arrows, and aimed Wangshan at the rushing soldiers.
