Just as Zhou Huchen expected, Li Zicheng's army finally reacted.

The huge army was gone, and it was not early, so Li Zicheng began to build fortifications. After trying an attack, he was unwilling to fight to the death, and Zhou Huchen's results were naturally few, so he simply gave up.

On March 15 of the 17th year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng left some foot soldiers and Liu Zongmin's cavalry to block the attack, and the huge army set off again. And Zhou Huchen once again demonstrated his command ability, and his cavalry used various tactics to engage Liu Zongmin in an almost all-morning dogfight.

Towards noon, both sides, who had only made a brief adjustment, seemed exhausted.

"Come on! Use our willpower to destroy the enemy! "Zhou Huchen decided, he can't retreat, the soldiers need this kind of training, as long as these Dashun cavalry are completely defeated, this cavalry team will grow up completely, and it will be unmatched.

A hard-hitting, powerful impact is about to begin.

This time, Zhou Huchen was ready to give it a go, and he used a phalanx this time. There is no doubt about the impact of the phalanx, but in the battle of the cavalry, this is an unusually tragic way of fighting, because everyone has to face each other, as long as there is courage, both sides will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Zhou Huchen was full of confidence, because whether it was the physical strength or horsepower of the soldiers, as well as the bravery, his cavalry was absolutely incomparable to the Dashun army, and he had the purpose of defeating some of the Dashun cavalry in one fell swoop.

The earth began to tremble again, looking at the enemy troops lined up in a phalanx, watching the neat ranks of the enemy army slowly accelerating, Liu Zongmin knew that he was about to lose, and he would lose very badly, and he would be incomplete.

Liu Zongmin, the so-called brave general, did not have the bloody courage that Zhou Huchen imagined and recorded in history, and soon after his cavalry was activated, Liu Zongmin made the most correct decision for him - to escape.

The result of fighting or not fighting is almost the same, because Liu Zongmin's cavalry has no strength, this is actually a tactic that basically has no rest in the morning, and it is also the result that Zhou Huchen needs.

It's much happier to chase down an enemy on the back than to fight head-on, as it can greatly reduce your own casualties.

The enemy in front is frantically fleeing, Zhou Huchen's cavalry is chasing, of course, Zhou Huchen will not let his soldiers do their best, the matter has come to this, the general trend is out of control, and it is not worth it to increase his losses.

Liu Zongmin naturally has his own reasons for running, and there are reasons for failure to fail, because the foot soldiers behind him have been walking all morning, even if the Ming cavalry pursues, it will consume a lot of physical strength if they catch up, and the attack strength will be very limited. What's more, the foot soldiers on his side have already made a defense, which is the reason for Liu Zongmin's escape.

Zhou Huchen was in control, controlling the speed of his cavalry, and the current horsepower was indeed not suitable for a powerful attack. The horsepower of the enemy army was even worse, and the cavalry of the Dashun Army, which had fallen behind, was constantly caught up, and some horses even fell to the ground while running.

Of course, you're welcome, as soon as you stretch out the knife, it will be solved.

When Zhou Huchen's cavalry team saw the enemy's infantry blocking the troops, Zhou Huchen no longer had the strength and mood to attack. The enemy has already made a good defense, not only has a large number of shields and pikemen, Zhou Huchen also has to admire that the Dashun army is indeed a large number of people, they actually built a long line of defense along a river on the left, a trench that spread for several miles, this efficiency made Zhou Huchen helpless.

When Liu Zongmin escaped the unknown river along the road set aside, the ditch and the river became obstacles. The bridge over the river had been destroyed, and of course Zhou Huchen would not have jumped over any trenches.

After Zhou Huchen led the team to march eastward for more than ten miles, a town appeared, and the Dashun army walked in a panic, obviously did not enter this town, although there was no one in the town, but it was not damaged. The cavalry began to dismount, and a belated lunch began.

War horses that eat grain are completely different from war horses that eat forage, and after an hour, the horsepower is basically restored, and the soldiers have no problem.

"This time it's Tongzhou, let's continue to gallop across and kill people!"

This kind of order is a kind of helplessness, Zhou Huchen has determined that Li Zicheng's Dashun army is about to surround the Beijing Division, Tongzhou is one of the places he is most familiar with, he wants to kill in Tongzhou, although Li Zicheng is numerous, but he will also be helpless against his mobility.

Zhou Huchen knew that in fact, Emperor Chongzhen still had a chance to escape, and he still had a chance to go to Jiangnan to make a comeback, but unfortunately, Emperor Chongzhen, who wanted to save face and suffer crimes, would not seize such an opportunity.

Tongzhou is due east of the Jingshi, seventy miles away from the position of Zhou Huchen and others.

The sun was about to set in the west, and the cavalry, which had been advancing at a constant speed, had marched nearly sixty miles, and Zhou Huchen gave an order, and the team began to rest, and the scouts galloped back.

The city of Beijing has been besieged, and there is chaos near Tongzhou, and soldiers of the Dashun Army are clearing the nearby villages and towns.

The soldiers began to mount, these soldiers were silent, fearless, very thorough in the execution of orders, what they experienced, is their precious wealth, these soldiers are growing, tempered by blood and fire, this cavalry team not only increases experience and courage, but most importantly, Zhou Huchen gives them confidence, the confidence to defeat all enemies.

This is the commander's liliang, Zhou Huchen did it, and he did it better than his father Zhou Yuji.

Tongzhou is the northern starting point of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, which is the most important commercial agglomeration area in Beijing, with a Caoyun wharf, a large number of merchants doing business here, and of course, a large number of materials, and an extremely dense population.

Now, this prosperous place of commerce has become a supply depot for the Dashun army, of course, no one wants to give their things to others in vain, but now, no one has a way, in the face of the swarming crowd, all resistance is ineffective, in addition to bringing death to themselves, the merchants and people of Tongzhou can only close their doors.

Closing the door is actually ineffective, the Dashun army was quite restrained at the beginning, only attacking some material warehouses and large households, but with the influx of more and more people, the killing, robbery, and violation of women have been left unattended, and the soldiers of the Dashun army have been out of control.

"Nothing wrong" is sometimes an empty phrase, and it is the pen that holds the record of history that has the final say. Of course, there are such armies in history, and there are several teams that have done it thoroughly, but this does not include Li Zicheng's army.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded in the land of Tongzhou, and many soldiers of the Dashun Army saw this galloping cavalry team, in their consciousness, this should be their own cavalry team, because no officers and soldiers nearby had ever resisted.

The banner of the Zhou character was rattling in the wind, and when Zhou Huchen, who was the leader, waved his knife to cut off the head of the first Dashun soldier, when the Dashun soldier who didn't know what happened spurted out with blood, the Dashun soldier finally understood that the enemy was coming.

Many people don't know this dress, but many people have seen it, and when those who have seen it see this horrible dress again, they are left to tremble.

The light of the war knife is the light of death, the sound of the horse's hooves is the note of life, the sword of war mercilessly slashed, the galloping war horse swept by, leaving behind blood and corpses, and it was infinite fear

Killing without any resistance is too simple, these cavalrymen have been completely adapted, there is no pity, only the cold eyes behind the masks, these soldiers have made killing a job, especially for these beast-like thieves, killing them will only bring them excitement and make them feel the pleasure of killing thieves.

The slanting sun is slowly turning red, and the land of Tongzhou is turning into a bloody color, there is blood here, and there is also the glow left by the setting sun
