Bishui Town, also known as Tiger Prison Pass, was once one of the eight passes to defend Luoyang, although by the time of the Ming Dynasty, Tiger Prison Pass has been completely annihilated in the dust of history, but in Bishui Town, here has always been a place where soldiers must fight, and the wars around this place are numerous.

At this time, outside Bishui Town, a pair of armored soldiers were attacking frantically, but the effect was minimal, not only could they not even touch the thin walls of Bishui Town, but even the defense outside the town could not break through.

"His grandmother's is really a bunch of rice buckets, and he can't even attack a small position, it's simply unreasonable, Lord Wang, if it doesn't work, the last general will personally bring people up, and he will definitely be able to break the enemy army in one fell swoop." On a high slope not far away, two large flags fluttered in the wind, clearly showing the words 'Hong, Wu', which was Wu Sangui's army.

Because of the lack of food, Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui had to mobilize their troops to attack Luoyang, the garrison of the Shaanxi Ming Army, and strive to complete the battle and completely drive the forces of the Shaanxi Ming Army out of Henan in one fell swoop, but what they didn't expect was that the first battle was so difficult.

Bishui Town is the dividing line between the Ming army and the Qing army, all, the Ming army is stationed in this small town, garrisoned 3,000 people, but they never thought that it was the defense of these 3,000 people, they used ten times the strength, 30,000 troops attacked for two days, but they didn't even pass the trench that became, but they had lost more than 10,000 people, which made Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui feel distressed, fortunately, these lost people and horses were all collected from the people, not the descendants of the two, otherwise, they would be even more annoyed.

This is not because the Ming army is invulnerable iron men, but because the Ming army's tactics are quite unique. They dug countless trenches outside Bishui Town, and then the Ming soldiers hid inside, and at the beginning, Wu Sangui and others didn't know this at all, because it was wartime. The spies had no way to get close at all, so Wu Sangui and others thought that the Ming army was cowardly, so they took the initiative to give up the defense outside the town and hid in the city, in a vain attempt to block the attack of the Wu army with a wall.

Carelessly, the more than 3,000 soldiers in the vanguard were completely blinded by the sudden appearance of the Ming army, of course, the main reason for this is that these soldiers are not the elite of the Wu army. It was the original Ming army that took refuge in the Dashun army, and its combat effectiveness was not compared with the Ming army, even compared with the current soldiers under Wu Sangui, there was still a lot of gap.

Then, Wu Sangui, who had been taught a lesson, was suddenly annoyed and sent more people to attack, but he didn't expect it. Taking advantage of the favorable terrain of this trench, the Ming army sniped the Wu army with bows and crossbows. Then, when the Wu army braved the rain of arrows and was about to attack them, another burst of grenades was thrown head-on, in this case. How could those soldiers still insist on attacking, even if there were really some brave soldiers who broke through this layer of protection, they could face the Ming army that had been prepared in advance and had been waiting for a long time. The only end is a dead end.

Hearing the words of Xia Guoxiang on the side asking to personally lead the charge, Wu Sangui suddenly said with an angry face, "Bastard, hurry up and get out of the way for me, don't you see the situation below, if you want to die, just die yourself, don't involve other brothers." "It's no wonder that Wu Sangui is so angry, you know, the following situation, anyone with a discerning eye can see it, rushing over now, not to mention that there is only a dead end, but if you want to successfully break through the defense line of the Ming army, it is also quite difficult, in addition, even if they break through the defense line outside the town of the Ming army, they can still rely on the wall to defend, and when the time comes, it will still be a big battle.

If you want to win, you don't know how many lives you will lose, now that there are these cannon fodder in front, Wu Sangui is happy, but Xia Guoxiang suddenly said this, if it is really allowed by Hong Chengchou, then the matter of charging will fall on the soldiers under him, and he knows very well that Wu Sangui, who has military power to have everything, how could he lose his precious troops in such an indifferent place in vain?

Fortunately, Hong Chengchou did not take advantage of this incident to say anything, but frowned and said to Wu Sangui, "Virtuous nephew, we originally only had five days of military rations, but now we have been stagnant in this place for two days, if we still don't think of a way to capture this place, I'm afraid we haven't seen the edge of Luoyang City, and there will be no food to eat, and when the time comes, even if we really get to Luoyang, what's the use." ”

"Uncle, this Bishui Town, that is, the Tiger Prison Pass, has been easy to defend and difficult to attack since ancient times, and it is impossible to open the position of a husband and a man, and now they are in a defensive position, we can't give full play to the advantage of our troops, so we can only die with them like this, but, judging from the situation that the little nephew just explored, after these two days of brutal fighting, the Ming army on the opposite side is obviously tired and abnormal, just now, there are actually a hundred and ten people rushing in front of them, and even have jumped into their trenches, which can be seen, They are already at the end of the crossbow, so the little nephew thinks, we wait for the troops to return to the camp, and wait until the evening, the elite under the little nephew will go to attack them, if nothing else, we will not only be able to take their positions outside the city in one fell swoop, but also be able to take the opportunity to conquer Bishui Town, if so, as soon as Bishui Town is broken, we can directly drive straight into Luoyang. Hearing Hong Chengchou's question, Wu Sangui spoke.

Just when Hong Chengchou was discussing with Wu Sangui and others how to break the defense of the Ming army, and those Bishui Town, in Bishui Town, the two young generals were also talking.

"Hey, General Yang, to be honest, during this time, I have been listening to General Liu and others praise your Ming army, strong combat power, brave and good at fighting, it can be said that you walk like the wind, sit like a clock, stand like a pine, and do the essence of the art of war, for this I still don't believe it, but the situation of these two people makes me feel that what they said is not right at all, you are even more elite than what is said in the book, and you can be described as the first army in the world." The person who spoke was Li Guo, since the integration of the Dashun Army and the Shaanxi Ming Army, although Li Guo was still the leader of the Dashun Army in name, he had always liked to go straight, and he still preferred to fight.

Therefore, during this period of time, he took the Dashun army and also won some county seats, but these are all small battles, for Li Guo, who has been used to fighting big battles with Li Zicheng, this is not even an appetizer, so this time, when he knew that the Wu army was going to attack them, he asked Li Yan to go to the front line, although Li Yan was unwilling, but after he was moved by Liu Zongmin and others, Li Yan finally agreed to let him come to Bishui Town, originally according to Li Guo's request, it was to take 10,000 Dashun troops to thus, Defending Bishui Town, unfortunately, this is different from Li Yan's plan, in the end, he can only bring 1,500 people over, and the remaining 500 people are led by Yang Guoguang.

At the beginning, Li Guo was very dissatisfied, you know, although the geographical location of Bishui Town is very important, but the number of troops is too small, 2,000 people want to resist the attack of more than 100,000 Qing troops, it is not a fantasy, it is also whimsical, fortunately, Li Yan did not let them come to find death, Li Yan just asked them to hold on for three days, but in Li Guo's opinion, it is also a difficult condition.

But what Li Guo didn't expect at all was that such a difficult task to complete, they were about to complete it, as long as they held until this evening, they would be able to retreat safely, but this made Li Guo very entangled in his heart, not for anything else, because, these days, Li Guo and his 1,500 soldiers of the Great Shun Army have not done anything at all, except for helping to carry some baggage and other things, and rescuing some wounded, the task of defense is actually all completed by Yang Guoguang and his 500 Ming Army. And the soldiers stationed in the trenches outside the town were all members of the Ming army.

It was also during these nearly three days of fighting that Li Guo, who had always thought that leading troops to fight was to lead a group of people, holding knives and guns in their hands, shouting and shouting to kill, and it became a rather artistic thing, and he never thought that it turned out that the war could still be fought like this, just by relying on these bows and crossbows and grenades, he could contain dozens of times the enemy's attack.

Seeing the occurrence of this miracle, Li Guo's heart suddenly rose with great curiosity, and at the same time he also understood why his uncle, before he died, let them come to Shaanxi, and at the same time, the status of the Shaanxi Ming Army in Li Guo's heart has undergone a huge change, from the previous disdain, to the current admiration, and even, Li Guo has an idea in his heart, that is, if he joins the Shaanxi Ming Army in the future, will he also become this kind of soldier who can fight with one enemy and ten and one enemy with hundred, If it can really become like this, thinking of this, Li Guo felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

"Hahaha, Li Gongzi, the first army in the world, can't talk about it, to be honest, this team is still a new soldier, if it is replaced by those elite soldiers who followed Lord Shi at the beginning, let alone three days, as long as there are enough weapons and grenades, we can guard him here for three years, and even maybe, we can also take the opportunity to counterattack Wu Gouzi, don't look at their large number of people, but sometimes more people do not necessarily mean a good thing, adults often tell us, soldiers are not expensive, as long as we can make reasonable use of the troops in our hands, Then you can get victory, on the contrary, if you have too many troops in your hands, it will become a burden, and maybe when it will play the opposite role, so don't look at our Shaanxi Ming army, the number is not much, but they are all heroes from a hundred. Hearing Li Guo's words, Yang Guoguang said with a laugh.
