Chapter 69: The Gap (Part 2)

The world's martial arts are unbreakable, only fast and unbreakable!

Chongzhen uses practical actions to best interpret this point.

In ancient times, there was Yangyuji, who could shoot through seven layers of armor, and Li Guang shot tigers, and even stones could shoot through. This female general can pull the iron tire bow, and her archery skills are absolutely extraordinary. At such a short distance, the iron tire bow was enough to shoot through the iron armor, but it still couldn't hurt Chongzhen.

Click-

Chongzhen's two fingers were like iron tongs, and he easily broke the iron arrow.

Instantly, with a slight flick of his wrist, the arrow turned into a meteor and shot back.

Unfortunately, the distance was too far, and the female general easily dodged the arrow with a slight tilt of her head.

There was shock on the female general's face, and her eyes had regained solemnity, and she shouted coldly: "All soldiers obey the order, form three formations, and besiege and kill!"

On the battlefield, there are many who are not afraid of death, and they are not afraid of being defeated. The most feared thing is to lose the commander, the dragons have no leader, and no matter how powerful the army is, it will not be able to exert its combat effectiveness.

Now, there is a female general who gives the order, and the others have calmed down.

The three formations of war horses were the basic tactics of Li Zicheng's cavalry, and soon, heavy war horses surrounded and killed, like an iron bucket array, approaching forward.

At this time, it is obviously impossible to rush into the enemy formation and kill wantonly.

Chongzhen knew that he had missed the best opportunity, and he couldn't do anything, so he could only sigh helplessly. It's also a pity that he doesn't have cavalry in his hands, if he has thousands of cavalry in his own hands, he can definitely wipe out the enemy army completely under the chaos of the opponent's position just now.

It's a pity that it is obviously not possible to rely only on these brocade guards under him. If he doesn't leave, wait for the other party's iron bucket to besiege him, and at that time, even if he wants to get out, he will be in big trouble.

"Withdraw!"

Chongzhen gave an order, and a group of brocade guards turned their horses' heads one after another and galloped back towards Beijing City.

"Red lady, do you want to chase?" Behind the female general, several commanders surrounded her.

A trace of disdain flashed in the female general's eyes, these guys are all wine bags and rice bags, just now they saw Chongzhen's killing so badly, they didn't dare to go forward at all, but at this time they remembered to take credit.

"If you think you have what it takes down the Dog Emperor, go!" the female general said indifferently.

Suddenly, several commanders stopped talking. Chongzhen's force just now was in his eyes, it was definitely the existence of taking the head of a general in a million army like a bag and picking up things, let them catch up, wasn't that the old birthday star hanging himself - rushing to death?

"Then what should I do now? Do you just watch the Dog Emperor run back?" said someone unwillingly.

The red lady didn't care, although she also wanted to catch Chongzhen, but she also had to think about her soldiers. Just now, the cavalry array was blown up by fire and thunder, and they didn't expect it at all.

Although Chongzhen and the others rode back, who knows if they were deliberately lured to chase after them? Therefore, at the moment, the red lady did not dare to rush forward.

It didn't take long for the smoke and dust behind him, and Li Zicheng led his soldiers and horses to arrive.

Li Zicheng did not ride in a car, but on horseback. He is now only in his thirties, tall, heroic on horseback, and has the fierceness of a Northwesterner.

"See King Chuang!"

The red lady and a group of soldiers saluted one after another.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Li Zicheng's thick eyebrows like knives immediately rose upside down.

And the others, looking at the miserable image in front of them, also gasped and looked at each other.

It's amazing without him.

You must know that Li Zicheng's cavalry training method is the Tiefu Tu of ancient times, although there is no heavy armor, but there are improvements in other aspects, and the combat effectiveness is extremely strong. came all the way to the battle, and it was to rely on the cavalry to be invincible.

This time, Li Zicheng sent cavalry to take the lead in order to seize the opportunity and intercept the Ming army.

But in front of him, the corpse of the Ming army was not seen, but the corpse of the intruding army was spread on the ground.

What's more, War Horse!

War horses!

Li Zicheng couldn't help but roar!

His cavalry consisted of three horsemen and 10,000 cavalry and 30,000 horses. But in front of him, not only the cavalry suffered heavy losses, but they didn't even see the war horses.

In front of me, let alone 30,000 war horses, I'm afraid that even 10,000 or even 8,000 war horses can't be gathered. At a glance, the battle array was empty, and there was no longer the majesty of the impenetrable war horse iron bucket array in the past.

"Red lady, you are guilty!" Li Zicheng roared.

"The subordinates are guilty!" The red lady lowered her head, this time, the cavalry losses were too great, these war horses were Li Zicheng's treasures, and they lost two-thirds at once, and it was not an exaggeration for Li Zicheng to cut her.

All kinds of inexplicable colors flashed in the eyes of the others, and they secretly sneered at not killing, they had long been in charge of the cavalry. Only behind Li Zicheng, a weak scholar man in a carriage, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but speak: "King Chuang, the lady has fought all the way to the south and the north, and has never missed, this time I am afraid there is another reason." ”

Next to him, a general snorted coldly: "What, Li Yan, is it because the red lady is your daughter-in-law that you will help her exonerate? These cavalry are all our family background, and they were defeated by this old lady like this, what will you do to fight in the future?"

The scholar named Li Yan didn't care about the other party's provocation, but continued to say to Li Zicheng: "The lady should naturally be punished, but that has to wait until the battle is over. General Li Guo's death is unknown, and the 30,000 forward battalion was wiped out. And the cavalry suffered such twists and turns, presumably there must have been changes in the Ming army that we did not expect. If we don't understand this, we will lose if this battle continues!"

The identity of the scholar man is obviously not ordinary, Li Zicheng can still listen to his suggestion, and said in a deep voice: "Red lady, I need an explanation!"

The red lady told me what had just happened. It's just that the mine exploded so quickly that she herself was a little confused.

"Do you mean that the army has buried fire and mines in the ground, and as long as you step on them, they will explode?"

"If King Chuang doesn't believe it, look at these war horses!"

Many of the war horses on the ground were killed, and many of them were even blown into pieces of meat, as if they had been hit by artillery.

Li Zicheng frowned deeply, was silent for a while, and said, "If the Ming army has planted this kind of ground fire mine in front, how can our army pass?"

The other generals looked at each other, and let them cut people, rob, and play with women was a good hand, but this kind of brain-using work was not very suitable.

At that moment, everyone's eyes fell on the scholar behind Li Zicheng.

The scholar had expected this, and this situation was not once or twice, whenever he needed to come up with an idea, he was looking for him. This is also the reason why when he opened his mouth, Li Zicheng could listen to it, and he did not punish the red lady for the time being.

"It's not difficult to break this ground fire mine!"

Li Yan stood up from the carriage, his scholarly shirt fluttering in the wind, the goose feather fan in his hand gently fanned, and nodded:

"Mines are buried in the ground, and they will explode when they are touched. All we had to do was drive the wounded and useless horses in front of us, light the oil at the horse's tail, and storm the battlefield with a fiery horse formation, sweeping away the fire and mines buried in the ground. ”

Li Yan is worthy of being the number one military advisor under Li Zicheng's name, and in a moment, he came up with the ancient fire bull array and transformed it into the current fire horse array.

Li Zicheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately ordered to do so.

Immediately, the horses that had just been injured and destined to be eliminated were driven forward, and the tail of the horse ignited fire oil and firecrackers.

In a burst of crackling firelight, dozens of wounded war horses stumbled forward and ran away.

Behind him, Li Zicheng and the generals all widened their eyes.

However, the expected mine explosion did not happen.

Li Zicheng's complexion gradually became a little unpleasant.

At this moment, several commanders of the cavalry glanced at each other, came to Li Zicheng's approach, and whispered something. Li Zicheng's face sank suddenly.
