Since Hong Chengchou personally led the army into Tongguan to seek a decisive battle with the Liukou, although the Liukou were numerous, there was no direct subordinate relationship between the Liukou, and they all occupied a piece of land by one person to wantonly collect the people's fat and ointment, and forcibly recruited the people to be thieves.

The size of the rogues snowballed wildly, but inevitably they became very bloated, the quality of the army dropped sharply, and the response became more and more slow.

Hong Chengchou seized the opportunity to take advantage of the time when the rogues were busy plundering, leading the army of 50,000 to abandon the baggage and light troops to advance quickly, and successively defeated the King of the World, the King of Hengtian, the Mixed 100,000, the Heavenly Star, and the Nine Dragons, and exterminated more than 300,000 Liukou, which made the Liukou frightened.

In just ten days, Hong Chengchou swept away half of Shaanxi, forcing the rogues to hurriedly huddle together to deal with the invincible officers and troops.

Now it is the third month of the lunar calendar, the weather has become a little warmer, tonight the moon stars are sparse and breezy, these days have gone through five major battles in a row, and they have rushed back and forth to half of Shaanxi, most of the soldiers can't help but be sleepy and have already fallen asleep, but the lights in the barracks tent are still bright.

"Did that man say that there is any conspiracy behind the rogue?" Hong Chengchou looked at the Jinyi Wei Baihu in front of him and asked anxiously.

"My lord didn't, that person's status in the rogues is not high and he just acts according to orders, and he can't get in touch with the real plans of the rogues, this time the secret is only known to the thieves at the highest level, but the news of the abnormal transfer of hundreds of thousands of rogues is absolutely true, please rest assured!" Jinyi Wei Baihu reassured in a loud voice.

Hong Chengchou frowned and pondered but had no answer, although there were more than a million Liukou, most of them were ordinary people who were forced to obey the thieves, and the real Liukou elite was only 100,000 at most, and he led 50,000 elite troops to be able to fight the Liukou head-on.

What's more, the rogues are now suffering consecutive defeats, and their morale is low, and it stands to reason that they should never divide their troops to do such a ridiculous act, which is self-defeating.

You must know that the location of this decisive battle was personally chosen by Hong Chengchou, and he suppressed the living space of the Liukou step by step, just in order to force the Liukou here to exterminate them in one fell swoop.

This place is a hundred miles in a circle, and there is no danger to defend in Pingchuan, which is suitable for a decisive battle of a large army, once the Liukou divides the troops, Hong Chengchou just takes the opportunity to attack the Liukou camp and exterminate them one by one.

"Could it be that the rogue is trying to cut off our food routes?" Cao Wenzhao pondered.

"Why do we need to send hundreds of thousands of people to cut off our army's food routes? Moreover, our officers and soldiers are more elite than the Liukou, and this is a plain, even if the grain road is cut off, we can open a passage out, and even we can eat the enemy and rob the Liukou's grain and grass, the Liukou's move is not only meaningless! It's a complete failure! Hong Chengchou was very puzzled.

"We are the main force of the official army, and there are no reinforcements around, they are definitely not encircling and sending reinforcements when they do this, so will they just want to surround us and prevent our army from breaking through?" Cao Wenzhao was puzzled, and after saying that, he felt that it was inappropriate and hurriedly shook his head.

"We are here to force the rogues to fight a decisive battle with us, so where are we afraid of being surrounded?" Hong Chengchou laughed.

"Although the adults are unbearable, they are by no means stupid people, there must be some conspiracy behind this! And they dared to make such a bold move, and the last general guessed that they must be confident that they would be able to deal with us! Don't you think it's too easy for us to win this way? When did the Rogue become so easy to deal with? Cao Wenzhao said with great certainty, he had doubts about the purpose of the rogue from the beginning, and he felt more and more frightened when others were surprised by consecutive victories.

"I can't think of any reason for us to fail! Now that we are only one step away from completely exterminating the rogues, even if the official knows that they have a conspiracy, he will rise to the challenge and will never retreat! Hong Chengen said frankly.

Cao Wenzhao was also silent, and he couldn't think of any reason for the official army to fail! Don't waste the time to withdraw just because you're worried about the rogue schemes!

"But there will be no mistake in that person's news, just in case, General Cao's own official ordered you to immediately lead Guan Ning Tieqi out of the camp and respond on the side. In this way, even if there is a conspiracy of the rogues, I can block millions of rogues here with the large battalion, and the general will lead the iron cavalry to respond, and when the time comes, I can take advantage of the situation to attack, at least I can force the rogues to win a small victory! As soon as he was decided, Hong Chengen handed the general order to Cao Wenzhao and asked him to immediately order Guanning Tieqi to leave the camp.

The Guanning Iron Cavalry is one of the most elite troops in the Ming Dynasty today, and it is composed of more than 100,000 strong people selected by Sun Chengzong from more than 100,000 Liao people who have a deep hatred with the Jin Dynasty. The Three-Eyed Divine Gun is a weapon with thorns all over its body, which can be used in long-range combat or as a mace in close combat.

The Guanning Iron Cavalry was not large, but it was very elite and able to confront the Eight Banners Army of the Jin Dynasty, and won many victories. Chongzhen three years Huang Taiji with the Jin army into the customs, and then Chongzhen Yuan Chonghuan to ask the guilt to prison, at that time the commander of the Guanning Iron Cavalry of the Zu Dashou was afraid of being questioned by Chongzhen, and hurriedly took the Guanning Iron Cavalry back to the Guanwai, Huang Taiji took the opportunity to first annihilate more than 7,000 Ming troops at Lugou Bridge, and then defeated the 40,000 troops led by Man Gui and others outside the Yongding Gate, and annihilated 4,000 reinforcements from Shanhaiguan.

At that time, the Ming army outside the capital was completely annihilated, and the three major battalions and the forbidden army in the capital did not even dare to go up the city wall, and there were no soldiers in the entire capital to fight again. Chongzhen had no choice but to dispatch Guanning Iron Cavalry. But Zu Dashou received the order at this time, but he did not move. Chongzhen was helpless, so he asked Yuan Chonghuan, who was in prison, to write a letter to Zu Dashou, and Zu Dashou took Guanning Tieqi to enter King Guanqin again. Huang Taiji learned that the Guanning Iron Cavalry had sent troops into the pass, and immediately withdrew his troops, leaving the heavy troops under the command of Amin to guard the four cities of Zunhua, Yongping, Luanzhou, and Qian'an.

I never thought that the Guanning Iron Cavalry would defeat all the Amin troops within a few days, and restore the four cities in the Guannei, which was known as the "Zunyong Great Victory" in history. Guan Ning Tieqi was so good at fighting, and he even dared not to listen to the emperor's orders, and only listened to Yuan Chonghuan, which made Chongzhen even more uneasy. After the "Zunyong Great Victory", Chongzhen immediately ordered Yuan Chonghuan Ling Chi to be executed. At the same time, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was divided into three, one part was under the command of Zu Dashou, one part was under the command of Wu Sangui, and some were transferred to the Guannai to suppress the Liukou.

The Guanning Iron Cavalry led by Cao Wenzhao was the part of Chongzhen that was transferred to Guannei to suppress the Liukou after the victory of Zunyong in the third year of Chongzhen, although the number was only three thousand, but it was the most important reliance in Hong Chengchou's heart.

Although the Guanning Iron Cavalry complained because they were woken up in the middle of the night, they quickly assembled and followed Cao Wenzhao out of the camp.

The momentum of Guanning's iron cavalry of 3,000 people out of the camp was not small, and the originally quiet camp instantly became noisy, but fortunately, Hong Chengchou had already arranged it so that it did not cause a commotion among the soldiers.

In the ancient military camps, the rules of the camp were strict, not to mention shouting loudly, even spreading rumors if there was nothing to do, and his life was in danger. Moreover, the military camp is an authentic place of slaughter, and the military regulations have the so-called "17 prohibitions and 54 beheadings".

This is because the more powerful the army, the stronger the evil spirit and resentment, usually all rely on the military spirit to suppress, once the morale of the army is unstable, it will not be able to suppress the evil spirit to lead to the camp roar, and then the evil spirit will back, so the soldiers will fall into madness and will never stop if they don't kill everyone around them.

Of course, Hong Chengchou, as the commander-in-chief, would not let this kind of thing happen, and he had already woken up the generals of the various departments to let them calm down the soldiers, and after a while, the camp finally quieted down.

However, tonight the temperature suddenly plummeted, and a sudden snowstorm caught everyone off guard, and the biting cold wind brought large fields of snowflakes; The cold wind shook the banner, howled and howled, and blew the entire barracks like a frenzy.
