Now Li Zicheng can make Liu Zongmin and Liu Fangliang retreat, and he has to work hard, with an order, the soldiers in Xiangcheng poured out, even if he gave up Xiangcheng, he must not let a few right-hand men die here, Li Zicheng can no longer afford the loss of the fierce generals.

Tens of thousands of soldiers once again came out of Xiangcheng, ready to fight to the death with the Ming army!

The army inside the city plus the army outside the city, more than 20,000 people, close to 30,000, the strength is almost on par with the Ming army.

However, in terms of combat power, the difference between the invasion army is too great, the combat power of more than 10,000 cavalry brought by Xu Yifan is extremely strong, and it is definitely not something that a group of rabble can resist, only two cavalry of more than 2,000 people, surrounded by Xu Yifan led by the cavalry, in less than half an hour, it was cleaned up, and all the cavalry launched a flanking attack on the infantry from the periphery again!

The two cavalry overturned the river and the sea in the middle of the army, rushed left and right, the entire army has been divided into small pieces by the cavalry, and was constantly annihilated by the cavalry, Liu Zongmin and Liu Fangliang and others surrounded Li Zicheng in the middle, protecting Li Zicheng's safety, and the blood has completely dyed several fierce generals into blood!

"King Chuang, we must lose now, we must retreat immediately, retreat! If we continue to fight, it will be impossible for us to get out! ”

Liu Zongmin shouted.

Li Zicheng watched the last force being defeated by the Ming army here, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he felt a burst of liver pain, the 200,000 army was all lost! There is no chance to turn over at all!

"Zong Min, immediately break through, abandon Xiangcheng, and retreat in the direction of Nanyang!"

Li Zicheng was bitter and remorseful, he had known today's ending, he might as well follow Song Xiance's advice and lead the army to withdraw to Nanyang, even if it was to withdraw to Huguang, at least he could keep a little bit of his family background!

Well, now there's nothing!

Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang and Zhang Nai, the three fierce generals took the lead in opening the way and launched a ferocious assault in the southwest direction, there were three people who sacrificed their lives to fight, plus the elite of the five hundred old battalions around King Chuang, no one could keep them, Yang Chengzu and Shu Xinchen tried their best to block it, and still couldn't trap Li Zicheng in it, so they could only watch the opponent break through!

Without the command of Li Zicheng and others, the army of more than 20,000 people collapsed in an instant, and they could no longer support the battle, and even the spiritual leader had already run away, so what a fart?

The invading army scattered and fled, and no one resisted the siege of the cavalry and infantry elites!

The Ming army once again opened the slaughter mode, and those who do not surrender will be killed!

One by one, the invading army fell under the iron hooves of the cavalry, 20,000 infantry, a lot of troops, but if you want to escape the pursuit of the cavalry, it is as difficult as ascending to the sky, all the invading troops are almost desperate, they can't fight and fight, they can't run and run, and there is no way to go except surrender.

Under the shroud of fear, one by one, the troops fell to the ground and asked to surrender, and within a radius of ten miles, there were surrendered soldiers everywhere, and corpses were everywhere.

Xu Yifan's face was pale, even if he was victorious, he couldn't be happy, Li Zicheng ran again, not only Li Zicheng ran away, but almost none of those core characters were caught!

"Damn, damn it, Brother Shu, Brother Yang, you have so many cavalry, why can't you stop Li Zicheng's bastard and let them run away again?"

Xu Yifan roared.

Yang Chengzu and Shu Xinchen's faces were flushed, yes, Xu Yifan was in command, encircling and suppressing the army in the back, and his two brothers were blocking Li Zicheng on the south side, but they didn't expect it to fail again! Shame, shame!

"Yifan, this, this!"

Yang Chengzu didn't know how to answer well.

Chen Yongfu on the side hurriedly said: "General Xu, this can't all be blamed on General Shu and General Yang, Liu Zongmin and others around Li Zicheng are too strong, they have fought for many years, they are all rare generals, they want to keep them, but it's not so easy, don't say these fierce generals, even if Li Zicheng himself, they are all excellent martial arts, no matter how elite our cavalry is, it is difficult to leave it ......behind."

Xu Yifan hated and shouted, "Don't I know? Even if they are brave and invincible, we have nearly 20,000 cavalry in our hands, and the combat power is so strong, the Ming Dynasty is unsurpassed, and they still let Li Zicheng run away, how can we deal with adults in the future? Damn bastard, order, immediately occupy Xiangcheng, send a force, send all the troops to Xuchang, hand them over to the adults, rest the army for a day, continue to advance south, damn it, Lao Tzu must catch Li Zicheng, even if it is to cross the Yangtze River, Li Zicheng must be caught! ”

Now Li Zicheng has already become a frightened bird, he can't take care of anything, run, run quickly, run as far as possible!

Li Zicheng ran out for sixty or seventy miles in one breath, and the war horses were already tired and began to tremble, before they stopped, it was too miserable, in addition to these generals, there were only about three hundred elite soldiers left in the old battalion, and all the troops were lost!

Li Zicheng, Song Xiance, and Liu Zongmin looked at each other, speechless, what else did they say? What a loss, what a loss!

"King Chuang, what should we do next?"

Liu Zongmin said bitterly.

Li Zicheng suppressed the grief and indignation in his heart, and said fiercely: "Order, immediately rush to Nanyang Mansion, pass through Nanyang, go to Xiangyang, and return to Huguang to recuperate, within two years, we will never have any ...... go north."

Li Zicheng is right, in the first battle of Henan, almost all the elites in the camp were lost, the generals Hao Shaoqi, Li Guo died, Yuan Zongdi, and Gu Ying were captured, and Li Yan was far away in Guide Mansion, even if the four prefectures of Huguang still have a certain number of troops, but compared with the main force brought into Henan, it is more than a little bit worse......

The defeated soldiers of the army rested for half a day, did not dare to stay any longer, and retreated quickly in the direction of Nanyang Mansion, originally Li Zicheng still had to hold on to Xiangcheng, at least for more than half a month, but in just a few days, Xiangcheng fell, and even with the 30,000 troops under his command and buried a clean one!

When Li Zicheng's army was defeated in Xiangcheng, Li Yan and the Red Lady had already led 3,000 troops into the territory of Guide Mansion, 3,000 troops, this is Li Yan's current situation, even if there are some remaining troops in Guide Mansion, it has always been only about 10,000 people.

Better than Henan Mansion is that most of the troops left behind by Liu Zongmin are concentrated in Guide Mansion, surrounding states and counties, and there are some troops, and now what Li Yan has to do is to gather most of the troops to Guide, so that it is possible to hold Guide, based on Guide, and have more than 10,000 troops in his hands.

This is the strategic place in Li Yan's eyes, if he has mastered Guide, then Zhu Jie can't unscrupulously launch a siege on the four mansions of Huguang, and Guide will become the most critical chess piece to contain the main force of Zhu Jieming's army!
