The mountains and fields of the homeless people fled in the wilderness, the Dengzhou town infantry in the back of the chase, Dengzhou cavalry is still in the rout of the homeless people to kill, the Liukou cavalry disappeared as soon as the smoke slipped, Dengzhou cavalry killed the bloody road, chased in the direction of the Liukou horsemen.

There are more than 2,000 corpses left by the river, and there are only more than 1,000 people killed and injured by firearms, and more are trampled to death.

The corpses of the rogue radiated all the way to the outward battlefield, and the more they reached the periphery, the fewer they were, but the corpses of the rogue in the direction of the cavalry impact on both wings were very dense, and such a pursuit would cause great damage. Chen Xin roughly estimated that there were 3,000 casualties, and most of those wounded would die.

Huanshui is the main road leading to Zhangde Mansion in Lin County, there is a road leading to the county on the bank of the river, Chen Xin and Lu Zhi walked all the way along the road, the cavalry under Lu Zhi did not let go, and they have been guarding the front and back, and did not play any role, although Chen Xin was very short of cavalry, he did not dare to ask Lu Zhi to hand over his own soldiers.

The cavalry chased along this road, and there were countless rogues who died on the road, Chen Xin observed all the way, many of them were teenagers and old people, and most of the others were young and strong. Most of them were dark-skinned and skinny, they were originally just farmers who farmed the land, but now they were forced to become rogues, Chen Xin didn't want to kill them, but he had no choice.

Lu Zhi was elated, and thousands of people were beheaded in this battle, even if it was a rogue, it was a big victory.

They followed the sentry in front of them, overtook the infantry halfway, slashed the fleeing rogues along the way, and after running for twenty miles, they chased them to the camp of the rogues. It was already the county seat of Linxian County, and the plains around the city were covered with nests, among which there were tens of thousands of displaced families who fled in the wilderness, most of them women and children.

Lu Zhi waved his hand, and more than 100 of his own soldiers galloped on horseback, chasing those women and children to kill, and there were cheers on the city wall of Lin County.

Lu Zhi looked at Di Wozi and said with some disappointment, "This is the big camp?" He marched with Dengzhou Town and was accustomed to the pattern of the Dengzhou military camp. He also demanded that kind of Cheng Dù for his own soldiers and Geng Zhongming, and thought that the military camp should be like that, but now when he looked at the Liukou camp, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Chen Xin looked around, and suddenly said with some worry: "My lord." There is something strange here, there should be a strong army in the camp to guard it, so as not to rob these homeless people of food, how can there be no horsemen now. Maybe there is an ambush in this nest, and the lower officer asks Lord Lu to stay away first, and come here after our infantry clears it. ”

Lu Zhi listened and immediately said, "Then Lord Chen and our family will stand back together." ”

Chen Xin immediately agreed and stepped back with Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi's own soldiers also ran back. Until the Dengzhou infantry arrived, Chen Xin said loudly to Zhu Daichun: "It's a little weird here, carefully check whether there are ambushes, check carefully." ”

Zhu Daichun said: "My subordinates must have checked it carefully." No one is left behind. ”……

More than 500 cavalry galloped in the direction of Linxian to the south, many of them had two or even three horses, and there were large and small coats on the horses, and the horses were all sweating profusely under the gallop. They ran across a small river before stopping to let the horses drink.

"Where did the girl go?" Zhang Xianzhong just stopped his horse and gasped. asked Liu Xiu next to him.

Where did Liu Xiu know, "It's long gone." ”

"Wait until our Lao Tzu catches him and pulls his skin." The Eight Kings were angry, "If he hadn't said that the Dengzhou soldiers were not Lao Tzu's opponents, how could Lao Tzu send them to others to fight, Gui Sun is more fierce than Cao Zhao." ”

Liu Xiu was also shocked, the two rounds of salvos in Dengzhou Town were earth-shattering, the morale of the displaced people collapsed in an instant, Zhang Xianzhong did not wait for the opponent's infantry cavalry to attack, and ran away, not seeing the melee ability of the Dengzhou soldiers, but Liu Xiu saw that the front and rear formations of the Dengzhou soldiers were scattered in formation, the front and front rows of the front formation all became stragglers, the array was divided into four squares, and the rear formation became dozens of small formations, those small formations were particularly flexible, not to mention the fast pursuit speed, the small formations were not chaotic at all, and there were musketeers in the small formations. When they encounter a large group of displaced people, they shoot and disperse. The opposing cavalry was also well-trained, and the kind of dense impact he had never seen before.

Liu Xiu pulled three horses, looked at it for a while before running to chase the eight kings, when he left the battlefield, he saw the cavalry of the Ming army chasing, at this time he listened to the eight kings, and comforted while looking back: "The homeless people are no longer easy to find, it will not rain this year, and there should be a lot of them in Henan, but fortunately they have few cavalry, and they may not dare to ...... Here it comes!!! ”

The Eight Kings looked back, and some rangers came out of the hills in the distance, and they hurried to the various hills to check, and then ran out a group of cavalry, about two hundred people, and chased them this way after a slight adjustment.

"When we are easy to bully, when people come, they all line up for Lao Tzu and fight with them." The eight kings shouted loudly, and a group of righteous sons quickly went to command the horsemen, pulled to a formation dozens of steps away from the river, and waited for the Ming army to cross the riverbed of the small river when the line was scattered before attacking.

The Ming army rushed closer and closer, and finally sounded a trumpet two hundred steps away from the river, stopped and began to form a team, and the rangers rushed to within a hundred steps, shouting and scolding at the rogue on this side, and the rogue also began to scold here, and the Qin cavity, Shanxi cavity, and Dengzhou cavity fought fiercely across the river.

However, the Ming army's cavalry formation did not impact, and he didn't see it after a while, and Zhang Xianzhong didn't dare to rush over to kill, and that small river would also affect his front.

Time passed little by little, and the group of rogues also became commotion, they had just lost all the outcasts and baggage, and the other side and infantry might come, they couldn't afford to spend it.

Zhang Kewang said fiercely to Liu Xiu: "You said that they don't have many cavalry, we have five hundred here, rush over and fight with them before leaving." ”

Liu Xiu's face was anxious, the other party's queue was slightly adjusted and lined up in three rows, each row was the same weapon, it looked very strict, although there were only more than two hundred, but the queue was very long, he had just seen this cavalry impact the homeless, that kind of momentum made him palpitate, and immediately shook his head and said: "Their infantry is so fierce, the cavalry will not be bad, you see that their sentry cavalry is the first to go up the mountain, and everything that can ambush the troops is checked before the brigade comes out, and the battle formation is so skillful, it is not easy to with." It's hard to find our old brothers, and what if we rush over and they run away? Shall we chase or not? What if they follow up when we turn around? ”

Zhang Kewang was speechless, and Zhang Xianzhong was also hesitant. His eyes kept changing, it was not a matter to stop here, even if it was better to fight than this, but he was reluctant to let the old horse soldiers here, he slapped his thigh, "Send a few people over to put things!" ”

Liu Xiulai didn't want to fight, so he hurriedly beckoned a few rogues and took out more than a dozen bags of silver from some empty horses, and some of their silver was carried on the horses. It's very convenient when you run away. Although they robbed everywhere, the silver taels were still useful, in addition to bribing officers and soldiers, they sometimes used the silver to buy things when they encountered a fortress that could not be defeated. Sometimes they buy weapons from profiteers.

A few rogues ran to the bank on the other side of the river, lifted the belt and poured the silver taels of Baihuahua on the ground, which amounted to thousands of taels of silver. The Ming army over there didn't react, and no one came out to speak, and several people who looked like leading generals were muttering something together.

"This group of turtle grandchildren is still too little? Give a little more. Zhang Xianzhong scolded, he didn't know that the girl had already tried, but the girl didn't tell him about it. Otherwise, he will not only pick the girl's skin, but also fry him in the oil pan and eat it.

So a few more rogues ran out, and the silver taels on the ground were increased, and a bag of jewels was made. Piles of belongings are placed on the ground, which is very visually striking.

The Ming army finally made some moves, and several sentry horses approached on horseback, and a rogue in front seemed to have the most dealings with the official army. He said loudly to the sentry riders: "A few officials, the silver is easy to discuss. A few grandfathers came out at a price, and how many were on the brother's side, and the official always had to be happy. ”

A few sentry riders didn't say anything, they walked twenty steps and stopped, and several people dismounted together, Zhang Xianzhong and the others stared at those people intently, waiting for them to offer a price.

Several officers and soldiers suddenly took off their bows from the saddle, and a few rogues by the river turned around and fled, and several officers and soldiers did not have bad marksmanship, and after a loud bang, several rogues were shot over, and they threw themselves face down in the water and struggled, and those sentry riders did not give up, and shot a few arrows at several people.

Liukou was suddenly agitated, Zhang Xianzhong was also so angry that he shouted angrily at Liu Xiu and the others, "Donkey balls, leave fifty people to watch the empty horses, you each lead a hundred people to bypass the point, attack them from both sides, Lao Tzu hit from the middle, see that they have three heads and six arms, grab them Lao Tzu and light all of them on the sky lantern." ”

Zhang Kewang received the order loudly, and Liu Xiu was a little reluctant, but seeing Zhang Xianzhong angry, he didn't dare to disobey, the two of them each led their troops to both sides, and the Ming army also adjusted the formation slightly.

"Kill the dog officers and soldiers with Lao Tzu!" Zhang Xianzhong roared angrily, and more than 500 rogue rogues rushed over from three directions with shouts......

Half an hour later, the Eight Kings rushed out of the hilly area, with a cloth wrapped around his head and blood streaming from his face. There were all flustered thieves around, and the number was less than a hundred.

The Eight Kings only saw the strength of the Dengzhou infantry by the Huan River, and the round of battles just now, the Eight Kings learned the power of the cavalry in Dengzhou Town, and the momentum of the dense rush will break his last bit of confidence, and the Liukou lost seventy or eighty people after the impact of the opponent's three rows, and the rest of the formation was all scattered, and even Zhang Xianzhong himself was cut on the forehead by the boring palladium, and he almost confessed.

Although the officers and soldiers also lost thirty or forty people, the eight kings did not dare to come again, nor did they dare to entangle those Ming troops in the melee, so everyone ran away.

The beginning of the retreat has now become a complete rout, and the Ming army sentry rode out twenty or thirty backward ones, and then Geng Zhongming's standard camp family appeared, he was originally a hundred family members, and he was very smart to leave fifty people, and the other fifty people chased after him with two horses, and bit off more than 20 people from the eight kings, Zhang Xianzhong had to throw down a pile of silver, fortunately, this family ate this set, and ran to fight for the silver, Geng Zhongming found that there were still many rogues, and he did not continue to pursue after getting the benefits.

Zhang Xianzhong's men and horses are now in their early 400s, and some empty horses on the river bank have been scattered by the Ming army's sentry horses, and there are only more than 200 people with two horses and three horses.

Zhang Xianzhong scolded while running, "This Dengzhou soldier has a total of only a few hundred cavalry, how can they all point to our Lao Tzu chasing alone, so many scorpion blocks, sweeping kings, heavenly monkeys, by the way, and that turtle and grandson girl, why don't you chase them, what kind of enmity does our Lao Tzu have with their Shandong soldiers." ”

Liu Xiu was not injured, he ran beside Zhang Xianzhong, and regretted that he did not persuade Zhang Xianzhong at that time, this Ming army is not ordinarily strong, no battalion leader can stand their kind of fighting, once these cavalry elites are lost, it will take a long time to replenish, they originally had six or seven hundred horsemen. When escaping by the river, some of the horsepower was weakly left behind, and they had been separated, and the inexplicable battle just now had caused a lot of losses to the strength.

But if the Ming army is in hot pursuit, many single horses will be abandoned, Zhang Xianzhong has three horses, and he can maintain a high speed by changing horses, and some single horses have been dragged behind, which seems to be out of horsepower.

The rogue doesn't care about anything else. But they are good for their horses, because they are life-saving things. On weekdays, you have to remember to grab beans and raise horses well, they have been active in the southeast of Shanxi recently, and there is no large-scale wandering. The horsepower is still well maintained, and it is stronger than the average officer and soldier horse.

However, Dengzhou Town marched for a long time, and only rested in Linzhang for a few days, and the horses were in a very average state, and it was very difficult to chase them until now. Zhang Xianzhong fled with his life, and the Dengzhou cavalry was thrown away.

This is already a plain, and Liu Xiu turned back again and again. I didn't see the Dengzhou cavalry, so I turned my head and breathed a sigh of relief, there were hills in front of me, but a puff of smoke and dust appeared in the left front. A group of men and horses came out of the mountains.

Liu Xiu's heart immediately raised his throat, seeing that it must be a cavalry, coming from the southeast in this direction, and he didn't know whether it was an officer or a rogue. Zuo Liangyu is here, they know. However, before the war, the sweeping king patted his chest and promised that he would send a team of men to watch Zuo Liangyu. Never let him come out and bite indiscriminately.

The cavalry soon showed its figure, and it was impossible to see what the men and horses were from a distance, and after getting closer, they could finally see the color of the banner, a big left character on the red background, there were about three hundred people, they lined up in a formation, blocking the way of the eight kings to the south, Liu Xiu almost covered his face and cried.

"Send someone to ask for the price." The voice of the Eight Kings sounded, Liu Xiu was excited, and he remembered that Zuo Liangyu could be discussed, and Zhang Xianzhong showed his calmness at this time, and he had not been beaten stupid by the Dengzhou soldiers.

A horseman rode his horse and ran to Zuo Liangyu's side, and several Zuo Liangyu's family members greeted him, and after staying in the middle for a while, the horseman came back and said loudly to the eight kings: "Zuo Liangyu wants all our silver and jewelry." ”

Zhang Kewang almost jumped up, "Donkey ball, why does he Zuo Liangyu want all the silver, if he hadn't met Dengzhou soldiers today, he Zuo Liangyu would also be worthy of ......"

"Shut up." Zhang Xianzhong's cold voice sounded, "After this, we can go to Weihui Mansion and snatch it back, he Zuo Liangyu dog is powerful, and one day he will be asked to come back." ”

Liu Xiu said worriedly: "Today is not the same as in the past, what if he takes something and still wants to stop us?" ”

The Eight Great Dynasties snorted on the ground, "He has more than 300 people and Lao Tzu is not afraid of him, he wants to stop Lao Tzu, he has to explain these 300 families, what good will it do him if he finishes fighting with our Lao Tzu, and the court will not give him supplementary troops." There is no such thing as our Lao Tzu, where can he Zuo Liangyu go to get rich and get silver. This dog official is a green-skinned lamabluff, he knows better than any of us, and the silver is given to him. ”

The transaction was quickly completed, the men and horses of the eight kings threw down the silver and some clothes, and after throwing them on the ground, they bypassed Zuo Liangyu's men and horses from the east side, and Zuo Liangyu's family did not have any interception.

A moment later, hundreds of people were pulled out of the mountain, all men, many shirtless, and they were carried to the open space on their backs, surrounded by the families of the Zuo family, and those people looked around in fear.

A horn sounded under Zuo Liangyu's banner, and all the family members shouted in unison, dismounted and brandished weapons to slash and kill those people, and the screams filled the field.

The killing did not last long, there was only one corpse left in the open space, the family was cutting off their heads one by one, the tall Zuo Liangyu was on the horse, and the sentry cavalry of Dengzhou Town appeared in the distance, and there was a general flag with Geng written on it, Zuo Liangyu said to the left and right: "The Dengzhou soldiers are coming, and the attitude is more respectful." ”

A Qian general manager next to him asked, "Do you want to give them silver now?" ”

"Don't, the silver is for Lord Lu and Lord Chen, not for Xiaobing." Zuo Liangyu shook his head.

"My lord, Zhang Xianzhong ran away, where are we going now?"

"Go north, and then cut off some rogue's heads, you send more people to sentry, see where the sweeping king and the scorpion block have gone, and we still have to talk to them."

Zuo Liangyu pulled the reins and went to Dengzhou's sentry to meet him.
