Early in the morning, under the constant advice of Cai Maode and Zhou Yuji, Zhou Huchen led his troops and began to dispatch.

Behind the 5,000 cavalry, there were also 2,000 supply troops, which were composed entirely of mules, horses and auxiliaries, and they would be responsible for the entire logistics. The infantry did not dare to move, because Zhou Yuji was afraid that Li Zicheng would come to fight in a turnaround, which would be a disastrous consequence.

In addition to Zhou Wanjiang, the leader of the family, and Zhou Jian'an, the captain of Zhou Yuji's personal soldiers, Zhou Huchen accompanied Zhou Huchen to fight, there were also 200 family members and personal soldiers. The generals accompanying the army are the most experienced new staff general Liu Qi, as well as Sun Dayong and Wu Yun and others, Gao Qiang is still the leader of the scouts.

If you don't take into account the logistics troops behind you, the five thousand cavalry can reach Taiyuan Mansion in less than a day. But now is not an emergency combat situation, so there is no need to gallop like this, the scouts have been interspersed back and forth in front, and the team led by Zhou Huchen is not fast, but it is just faster than the foot soldiers.

Gao Qiang's scouts never found any trace of the enemy, and in the evening, Zhou Huchen led his army to Ninghuasu (now Ximafang Township).

It was a very dilapidated guardhouse, and of course, there were no more officers and soldiers.

The mule and horse logistics troops behind them moved quickly, and the tents for the night were quickly erected, and some people began to cook dinner.

Zhou Huchen showed full respect to several generals, and after a brief dinner, the senior generals gathered in Zhou Huchen's camp to start military discussions.

Because of the simplicity and simplicity of the camp tent, sitting on the ground with a felt carpet, Zhou Huchen spoke: "You are all elders, and you are also leading generals, with rich experience, this military meeting, please tell us which direction Li Zicheng will march?" How do we respond? ”

Everyone is not an outsider, they are all Zhou Yuji's descendants, they can all be trusted, Zhou Huchen must make an appearance, of course, he already has a battle jihua in his heart, and he has some faint expectations for Li Zicheng.

"Li Zicheng's army suffered heavy losses this time, should he go back to Shaanxi or Henan, right?" Liu Qi first expressed his opinion:

"Is it a big loss? How many casualties does the seventh uncle think Li Zicheng's thief army has suffered this time? How many of them are truly daring warriors? ”

Zhou Huchen was very concerned about this issue, and the original history Li Zicheng also suffered heavy losses, it is estimated that he lost no less than tens of thousands of people in Ningwu Pass, and the losses in the battle of Yanmen and Ningwu this time should be similar to history. This loss will not touch Li Zicheng's foundation, and Liu Qi's judgment should be wrong.

Liu Qi replied: "In this battle between Ningwu and Yanmen, Li Zicheng should have lost no less than 50,000 people, and there should be 10,000 or 20,000 warriors lost." ”

"How many soldiers does Li Zicheng have to fight, just such a small loss, will Li Zicheng give up?" Zhou Huchen said with a smile:

"Then where is Li Zicheng?" Liu Qi was not familiar with geography, so he couldn't understand Zhou Huchen's statement.

"Could it be that Li Zicheng wants to go east, to go east in Taiyuan, to cross the Jingcheng Pass, this is the direction of running to Jingshi!" Gao Qiang, as the leader of the scouts, was naturally very familiar with geography, and Zhou Huchen's statement made him can't help but stand up.

"Li Zicheng has nearly one million troops, how can he let go of such an opportunity, can't he pass Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass, can't he pass Niangzi Pass and Jingcheng Pass?" Zhou Huchen used an almost affirmative tone.

"How can Zhending Mansion and Baoding Mansion have liliang against Li Zicheng? Wouldn't that Jingshi" Liu Qi's eyes widened, and this change made him almost stand up in surprise.

"Therefore, we have to be prepared, if Li Zichengjun goes to Niangzi Pass and Jingcheng Pass, the situation will be very serious. It is also very unfavorable to our army, these places are all mountain roads, and it is impossible to fight after them, and the cavalry cannot be the opponent of the infantry in such a place! Zhou Huchen frowned and said:

"Then wait for Li Zicheng to get out of Jingcheng Pass, and our army will follow closely, and Pingchuan will be our world!" Liu Qi is full of confidence:

"Uncle Seven, can we keep up with our supplies? Most importantly, how many people are in Li Zicheng's army? Even 500,000 is a hundred times more than our army, do you think we can defeat the enemy's 500,000 army? ”

Liu Qi and the generals were silent in an instant, if this is the case, this is too terrifying, these generals are all from the Beijing camp, and everyone knows the combat effectiveness of the Beijing army, as for the local troops along the way, let alone it. The consequences are serious, and they will shake the world.

After a long time, Liu Qi still spoke: "Then what should I do?" We can't watch the thieves attack Gyeonggi, we"

"There is only pinning, pinning down the enemy behind you, using the mobility of our army to constantly harass you, this is the only way!" Gao Qiang quickly intervened, which was equivalent to helping Zhou Huchen, he understood what Zhou Huchen meant, it was nothing more than that it didn't matter if he couldn't fight Li Zicheng, he had to protect himself, as for how righteous this meaning was, it had nothing to do with him.

"Actually, even if you are fighting for your life, I'm afraid it can't be imagined, but we still have a chance, so let's do it, follow Li Zicheng closely, no matter what, we must keep this army intact, as for the rest, let's consider it for the time being!"

Zhou Huchen could not continue to elaborate, if Li Zicheng went to attack the land of Gyeonggi, the consequences did not need him to say in detail, and no one could understand its seriousness. As for how to deal with it, there is a basic principle.

This military discussion is equivalent to Zhou Huchen giving a lesson to the generals, my decision is like this, the dead friends are not dead and poor, they must protect themselves, so let's implement it in accordance with this principle.

The generals understood that this young marshal and the marshal had different concepts, Zhou Yuji belonged to the kind of person who would do his best to defend the country regardless of life or death, and Zhou Huchen was different, he was a standard feudal town style, and the feudal town style was; First of all, you have to save yourself in order to deal with the enemy.

On the second day, after breakfast and the formation of the team, the army set off again.

The scouts were released for a full thirty miles, but unfortunately, there was still no news of Li Zicheng's army.

When it was getting late, the army arrived in Jingle, still releasing sentries and not collecting the night, and the night passed peacefully.

Jingle was still more than 100 miles away from Taiyuan Mansion, and under the instruction of Zhou Huchen, the army accelerated its march. At noon, the scouts came with the news that the gate of Taiyuan Mansion was wide open, and Li Zicheng's army was not found, but the people provided them with a message that the direction of Li Zicheng's army was Shouyang.

Shouyang is directly east of Taiyuan Fucheng, and Li Zicheng's army goes in this direction, which just verifies Zhou Huchen's judgment, Li Zicheng wants to go east to Niangzi Pass and Jingcheng Pass, and then enter Zhending Mansion to take the Beijing Division.

The history of being fanned by Zhou Huchen still could not change Li Zicheng's ambition to seize the world, this was a disastrous eastward advance, last year, the wanton construction of slaves has already explained the problem, these places have no resistance at all, Li Zicheng is afraid that he will soon reach the land of Gyeonggi.

Will the army near Jingshi be able to fight against Li Zicheng? Of course not, Zhou Huchen understands that history is still the same direction, and it is only a matter of time before Li Zicheng takes Beijing.

What can the five thousand cavalry do, they can only chase after them, as for containing Li Zicheng, this is also a kind of helplessness, and it is even more impossible to defeat and stop Li Zicheng, Zhou Huchen will make a show, as for the future development of events, I am afraid that it will still return to the original history.

But now that there is a Zhou Huchen, these epoch-making weapons and equipment, and these different soldiers, will the wheel of history still follow that trajectory?
