Chapter 92: The decisive battle between the Ming army and Li Zicheng
Li Zicheng mobilized the people to clear the wilderness, and cut off the back road of the official army, Sun Chuanting had no choice but to retreat, let Chen Yongfu as a back, but Chen Yongfu's subordinates would not be stupid enough to be substitutes for the dead, the soldiers fled one after another, and Chen Yongfu couldn't help killing people, in this case, Chen Yongfu had no choice but to escape, what other way did he go?
For this reason, Li Zicheng led the army to chase and kill non-stop, he would not let Sun Chuanting return to Guanzhong safely, and he would beat the water dogs.
At the same time, Li Zicheng also monitored the situation on Zhang Biwu's side at any time, if Zhang Biwu dared to lead the army to aid Sun Chuanting, he would even take Zhang Biwu to eliminate him.
Zhang Biwu naturally knew this, he could only sit on the wall and watch, and found out that the Ming army had retreated to Nanyang Mansion in Henan, and a big defeat was inevitably about to be staged.
"Hey! Hey! The soldiers shouted, pushing the heavy train with all its might, and the train was carrying the Hongyi cannons.
The wheels were stuck in the mud and could not move, and the wheels were full of mud, making it even more difficult for the car to move.
"No! Can't push! Shovel the mud! As soon as one of the soldiers shouted this, someone immediately began to shovel the mud, and when the shovel was finished, someone put bricks or planks or stones on it.
In this way, the person pushing the cart in the back can push the train up. "Let's go!" The driver flicked his whip and let the donkey pull the train. Due to the speed of the car, the wheels drove by, and muddy water splashed the soldiers who were marching on the side of the road. The soldier couldn't help but scold: "You damn! Why are you running so fast! Make Lao Tzu dirty! Beware of Lao Tzu slaughtering your donkey! ”
Saying this, the partner next to him couldn't help but lick his lips with his tongue, because they were so hungry. The grain road was cut off by Liu Zongmin. They retreated in starvation. It's a great thing that you can eat meat when you slaughter a donkey!
In fact, the train is not fast, after all, the donkey is also hungry, and the Hongyi cannon on the train is very heavy, how can the train run fast?
The train didn't run long after getting out of the predicament, and the train couldn't move again, and was bitten to death by the mud. And it has to be concocted in the same way that the train can continue to move.
"Alas!" Seeing this, Sun Chuanting was so relieved, and said worriedly: "The march is so slow, and Li Thief is a lot of cavalry, if he catches up, our army will not be able to defeat them!" Alas! What should I do? ”
Bai Guangen also sighed and said, "Master Inspector, Chen Yongfu's army has also been defeated!" There will be no one to stop Li Zicheng's army for us. Alas! Now we may be caught up by the rebels at any time! After all, Liu Zongmin's more than 10,000 cavalry has arrived in the rear of our army, and they can attack our army on both sides with the main force of the chasing thief army at any time! ”
When Bai Guangen said this. He couldn't help but feel very sad and sad, he had been a subordinate of the Monkey. Killing the lord to surrender to Ming, he began to fight against the righteous army, and he made steady progress. Until now, he has been reused by Sun Chuanting and appointed to be in charge of the train battalion.
Sun Chuanting had already thought of this, and said: "I am desperate to destroy the thief, so as to prosper the Ming Dynasty, it seems that everything is in vain!" Alas! I don't know if Zhang Biwu will come to the rescue......"
When Sun Chuanting said this, he also sighed, he knew that Chongzhen treated Zhang Biwu like this, and repeatedly harmed Zhang Biwu, would Zhang Biwu still come to save him? Will you still support Daming? Sun Chuanting was also secretly ordered by Chongzhen to kill Zhang Biwu, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and Zhang Biwu cannot be ignorant of the Tao.
Under these reasons, will Zhang Biwu still come to save him? No! No! Zhang Biwu's coming is tantamount to opposing Li Zicheng, so Zhang Biwu can't keep it himself, Zhang Biwu won't be so stupid.
Civil officials are still influenced by Confucius and Mencius's loyalty to the monarch, but for a martial artist like Zhang Biwu, he is not bound by the idea of loyalty to the monarch. So don't expect Zhang Biwu to have the idea that the king wants the minister to die and the minister has to die, the king is always right, even if he repeatedly wants my life, I can't resent the thought.
Sun Chuanting thought about it carefully, Chongzhen was too suspicious, and now that Zhang Biwu abandoned him, there was nothing to accuse Zhang Biwu. Didn't even his Sun Chuanting feel depressed and depressed because of this? This time he went out in a hurry, and he fought Li Zicheng desperately, but he was also forced by Chongzhen to be helpless!
Although the emperor is sage, his heart is too anxious, and he is a taboo for a king, he does not doubt the use of people, and he does not use this for suspicious people, but he has not been able to do it.
"Zhang Biwu persuaded me that it would be extremely stupid to go out of the customs and fight Li Zicheng, and he would definitely be defeated! It's not that I don't understand! But what can I do if the Divine Decree is urgent? Alas! ”
Sun Chuanting's heart is very uncomfortable! "Report!" The heralds came quickly. Sun Chuanting couldn't help but perk up and said, "Could it be that Zhang Biwu came to the rescue regardless of his previous suspicions?" ”
The herald reported to Sun Chuanting: "Lord Zhengtai, it's not good! In the rear of our army appeared the enemy's cavalry! Sun Chuanting was shocked when he heard it! An ominous premonition hits my heart!
Yes, when the Ming army was still pushing a heavy cart full of firearms, Liu Zongmin also arrived as soon as he knew that Li Zicheng's army was coming, and he wanted to fight a decisive battle against the Ming army.
Therefore, Liu Zongmin led the cavalry to kill first, and first killed the backward people of the Ming army, so as to cause great psychological deterrence to the Ming army and facilitate the subsequent decisive battle.
With a "pop", a cavalryman quickly slashed past a soldier who was pushing a train and didn't notice, the soldier was stabbed, the blood on his body was spraying, and after he turned 180 degrees, he fell into the mud.
"The thieves are coming!" The soldiers shouted, and they took out their firearms, but their firearms were not fired because they were damp, no matter how they lit them.
No, a Ming soldier was still fiddling with his gun with his head down, and said impatiently: "What's the matter! I haven't been able to do it yet! I'm going to shoot! The enemy is coming......"
"Click" horses' hooves! The enemy is coming! When the Ming soldier raised his head, he saw the saber slashing at him, and suddenly a long blood mark appeared on his face, and he also fell in a pool of blood.
There was a soldier who was a little lucky enough to dodge the saber swing, but his nose was cut off, and he immediately fell into the mud, and the muddy water splashed out, and he rolled in the mud, and from time to time water flew out of the ground.
"Run! The thieves are coming! "When the soldiers saw that the firearms could not be used, they all abandoned the firearms one after another, and they only cared about fleeing for their lives!
"Gotcha!" The war horses chased after these lone Ming soldiers, and the horses' hooves trampled on the mud, and the mud flew out and splashed on the bird guns abandoned by the Ming soldiers. There were even horses' feet stepping on it, and the bird was deep in the mud, and the water covered it, so that it could not be seen clearly.
"Ahh A soldier fell after a stumble, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching, he knew that the enemy was coming, and he couldn't help but look back, and his soul flew away!
He got up in the mud and he kept running, but the more you tried to run, the less fast you couldn't. No, the soles of his feet slipped, and with a "bang", muddy water shot everywhere, and he fell again.
He couldn't care about the muddy water that he had already poured into his mouth, and the mud in his mouth didn't spit out, so he hurried up first, and under the urge to survive, he wanted to escape! Escape for your life! But God didn't want him to escape.
With a "whoosh", an arrow hit him, and he fell into the mud, instantly staining the yellow muddy water into blood-red water.
The fate of these lone Ming soldiers was only to be slaughtered by the rebel cavalry.
The sound moves the world! This is the arrival of Li Zicheng's army! The decisive battle between the Ming army and Li Zicheng began!
"Report! The blind thief has arrived with his main force! "Hou Qi came to report quickly! Needless to say, from the sound of thunder and the trembling of the earth, Sun Chuanting knew that Li Zicheng's brigade was coming! This time, the decisive battle is inevitably about to begin!
Sun Chuanting was stunned and said, "How could the blind thief come so quickly? "Sun Chuanting, have you forgotten! Can Li Zicheng not come quickly? In other words, if you have the advantage, you will not be able to come quickly, and you must not let the opponent have the slightest respite, and you will send the opponent to the west with one blow!
"Oh my God! It's not a pity that my Sun Chuanting died! But why do you want to destroy this lonely army? I'm going to die! My three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty are in danger today! Sun Chuanting was very sad.
Even if this decisive battle has not yet started, Sun Chuanting knows that they will not be able to win, although there is so-called hope, but this is unattainable!
Bai Guangen gritted his teeth and said, "Master Taiwan, let's fight to the death!" I hope God bless me Daming, can defeat Li Blind, and help me Daming Zhongxing! ”
Bai Guangen said helplessly, even so, they can only do this unattainable hope.
The Ming army had to start a decisive battle with the rebels. The battle formation of the rebels was fivefold, the first was the hungry, the second was the infantry, the third was the cavalry, the fourth was the elite cavalry, and the fifth was the family.
The officers and troops broke through the first three battle formations of the rebel army, and the elite cavalry of the fourth battle formation could not hold on. Li Zicheng's tactics are very simple, use the hungry people to consume the sharpness and combat power of the Ming army, after the Ming army was caught up, inspired by Sun Chuanting, they only had to fight to the death to hope that they could survive, so they would be fierce at first.
Therefore, Li Zicheng blocked the hungry people in front, acted as a shield, and then blocked the infantry in the second battle formation, facing the Ming army that wanted to defeat the hungry people.
The Ming army's attack on the second battle formation is like kicking an iron plate, so their sharpness will be consumed, and when they go to the third battle array, the sharpness of the Ming army has also decreased a lot.
By the time the fourth elite cavalry arrived, the Ming army's sharpness was running out, and in the face of Liu Zongmin, the elite division that had just slaughtered their lone companion under their noses, they had only one way to defeat.
The Ming army and the righteous army were in close contact and fought fiercely. (To be continued......)
