The artillery fire of the "boom boom" broke the captivity again, and the projectiles fell one after another into the rogue horse team, and the rogue horse team in the charge had no choice but to rush forward next to the artillery fire. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Breaker Army used artillery fire, horse traps, tripping ropes and other objects to block and slow down the pursuit of the Liukou horse team, and bought precious time for the retreat of the Beijing camp. The heavy casualties made Li Zicheng tremble in distress, this battle was not fought by him alone, there were so many "friendly troops" behind him, Li Zicheng didn't want to only let his men and horses make sacrifices to fulfill others. After a slight hesitation, Li Zicheng hurriedly ordered to stop the assault and avoid the range of artillery fire.

Time passed minute by minute, and the follow-up troops of Liukou gathered more and more, and in just a quarter of an hour, there were no less than 20,000 cavalry at Gukou, and Liu Fan knew that if he didn't leave, he might be difficult to escape. At the critical moment, Liu Fan decisively ordered: "Give up the artillery, everyone retreats into the valley!" ”

"What?" Sun Liang was shocked and said, "Overseer, these are fifty cannons, is it just given to the Liukou for nothing?" ”

Liu Fan said in a deep voice, "Yes, order someone to finish all the shells, and then retreat." I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf. If they don't give the rogues a little sweetness, how can they believe that our army is really defeated? As long as our plan succeeds, we will get it back sooner or later! Execute the order! ”

Sun Liang's heart suddenly felt a lot better, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What the Overseer said is right, as much as the Liukou takes now, he will spit out as much as he will give me in the future!" ”

Under Sun Liang's supervision, the artillery emptied the remaining shells and then abandoned the guns and retreated. As soon as the artillery fire of the broken army stopped, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong immediately seized the opportunity and ordered the cavalry to pursue. The rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the rogue monster roared and rushed through the county river town, chasing in the direction of the departure of the Broken Army.

When Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong came to the town of Xianhe on horseback, they were shocked to find that the two sides did not pursue the official army but confronted each other in an open field. Li Zicheng's side is led by no one else, it is Li Zicheng's confidant Liu Zongmin. Seeing Li Zicheng coming, Liu Zongmin seemed to have confidence, and shouted, "Let's let the generals and the eight kings evaluate them." These things were obviously found by us first, and according to the practice of our rebels, whoever captured them will belong to whomever they want, isn't that reasonable? ”

Zhang Kewang immediately retorted loudly, "Our horse team also played a strong role in this battle, why do you have these artillery pieces exclusively?" When the Beijing camp escaped just now, the fifteen cannons were taken by you, and now you still want to swallow these fifty cannons alone? ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, Zhang Kewang's voice fell, following Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong's rogues who came from the rear were suddenly shocked, fifty cannons, could it be that the officers and soldiers were in too much hurry to forget to bring when they fled?

The whispered discussion of the crowd angered the silent Li Zicheng, only to see Li Zicheng's whip raised, and a crisp sound of "snap", and said angrily: "The great enemy, at present, you people are here to quarrel for some petty profits, if you let go of the official army and blame the king, you will all have to fall to the ground!" Liu Zongmin, you bastard, why don't you hurry up and chase Liu Fan for Lao Tzu? ”

Liu Zongmin reluctantly glanced at the artillery behind him, wondering, "But big brother, these cannons..."

Li Zicheng shouted angrily, "What kind of cannon, didn't you hear Lao Tzu's order?" Saying that, Liu Zongmin cast a reassuring look.

Liu Zongmin understood the meaning in Li Zicheng's eyes, glared at Zhang Kewang fiercely, and snorted angrily, "Hmph! We'll see! Then he turned over his horse and left with a large number of men and horses with a shout.

Seeing Liu Zongmin take people away, Li Zicheng came to Zhang Xianzhong's side and whispered, "Brother Bingzhong, there are many people here, in case the people who broke into the king know, we won't get any benefits." How about you and me, how about adding five points? ”

"Good! Just do what Brother Hongji said! Zhang Xianzhong nodded hurriedly and said, to be honest, the reason why he didn't stop Zhang Kewang immediately just now was the idea of getting a piece of the pie. In the past few years, the rebels have fought with the official army, because this artillery has suffered a lot. As for the power of artillery, those who have experienced it first-hand, they even know a little better than the officers and soldiers.

It stands to reason that the Liukou have been crisscrossing the Central Plains for many years, and there are not a few cities that have been broken, and according to the popularity of Daming firearms, a lot of artillery should have been captured. But the truth is not so simple, the rogues are not yet in their heyday, and the Ming officials generally have zero tolerance for the rogues. For so many years, I have never seen a Ming official surrender on his own initiative, and even if the city is broken, the artillery will be destroyed first. Even if there are occasionally some left that are too late to destroy, they are large artillery pieces that can easily weigh thousands of pounds. Although these cannons are powerful, they are difficult to move, and they are good as a weapon for defending the city, but they are very inconvenient for field warfare. However, the artillery of the Broken Army is different, not only is it easy to move, but it is also very powerful. Just now, they had personally felt the power of the artillery of the Broken Army, and in Zhang Xianzhong's opinion, they were probably not weaker than the powerful Hongyi cannon. Faced with the great temptation of fifty guns, who wouldn't want to take it for themselves? Fortunately, Li Zicheng is knowledgeable, otherwise, Zhang Xianzhong is afraid that he will not hesitate to tear his face and fight.

After the distribution of the spoils, the two quickly ordered to block the news, but Gao Yingxiang came to question after getting the news, and the two hurriedly led the army to join the ranks of the pursuit of the broken army, so that Gao Yingxiang knew, in the current situation of the enemy, I am afraid that he would also dispel the idea of asking because of the scruples in his heart.

The two guessed well, as soon as they left on their front feet, someone reported the period that happened here to Gao Yingxiang, and when Gao Yingxiang felt the county river, the building was already empty. Regarding the cunning of the two, although Gao Yingxiang was extremely angry in his heart, he had to pinch his nose and admit it. As a leader, you must have the responsibility of a leader, Gao Yingxiang doesn't want to let the rebels have a gap because of these artillery, so the gains outweigh the losses!

Zhang and Li were thieves, and in order to cover up the "crime" of swallowing artillery, they had lost their sense of normalcy and their vigilance had dropped greatly, and the fog had not yet dissipated, so they did not pay much attention to the surrounding terrain. Gao Yingxiang, as the Chinese army, since there is a shrewd and capable pioneer like Zhang Li to explore the way, he did not bother to pay attention to the surrounding terrain. As for the other leaders, most of them looked at the battle with the mentality that it was none of their business. They are even more lazy to do such thankless tasks.

Under the faintness of Li Lingzhi, the army of 100,000 Liukou stepped into the trap carefully arranged by Liu Fan and others step by step without knowing it. (To be continued.) )
