Outside the city of Chunhua, the camp of the army was brightly lit.

The army set up a bright camp in the west of the city, and the beacons were connected, and the lights were like day.

All kinds of simple horse-repelling obstacles were piled up outside the camp to form a simple camp wall.

The night patrol infantry team is all holding their swords and bows and arrows, staring nervously into the dark distance.

The Ming army was especially good at attacking the camp, often marching at night.

In the years of fierce battles, they have suffered too many losses.

Even if he got the news that there were not many defenders in Chunhua City, he didn't dare to be unprepared.

Looking through the gate, the infantry team is outside, and the horse army responds, and the elite cavalry is used as a garrison in the Chinese army, layered and orderly.

In the place of the Chinese army, a huge blue curtain military tent was guarded by many camp tents.

In front of the tent, a large black flag was erected and connected with the night sky, as if it were one.

Outside the tent, there are many armor soldiers, all of them are robes and belts, and there are many high-topped helmets, iron arms covering, and riveted cloth armor.

The shoulder knife with a bow, soap boots and clean clothes, almost the same as the elite clothing of the Ming army.

But this is not the Chinese army camp of the Ming army, but the Chinese army camp of the breaking army.

In fact, the armor worn by the three warring parties at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army, the Qing army, and the Chuang army was basically the armor made in the Ming Dynasty.

The Qing army made some changes in its shape, removing the helmet and changing the color to distinguish the two armies.

At the beginning of the invasion of the army, due to the limited conditions, it only changed some tones.

This is also the reason why there are often rogues who pretend to be officers and soldiers, and they can still cover up the past.

The lights outside the tent were bright, and the inside of the tent was as good as the outside of the tent.

Although it has reached the time of the child, the military academy is still full of military schools in the Chinese military tent.

Li Zicheng sat in the first seat of the tent, and the military academies in the camp were arranged on both sides according to their status in the army.

In the center of the tent was a man half-kneeling, dressed in rags, wearing a scarf on his head, with a vegetable on his face, looking like an ordinary homeless person.

"There are about 3,000 soldiers in Chunhua City, stationed in three camps, and they are also dressed differently, not the same battalion."

"The first battalion is the Liao soldiers encountered in Sanshui City, the other battalion is the eight or nine hundred infantry who came to the city from behind, and the other battalion has very little armor and looks the weakest, and it seems that they are all recruits who have not been in battle."

The half-kneeling man was not a real outcast, but an inner response that had blended into the city of Chunhua.

"When some officials in Chunhua City talked, they seemed to mention that they seemed to be the guards of Xi'an Mansion."

After several days of investigation, they had already felt that the situation was not much worse.

"Guards?"

A glint flashed in Li Zicheng's eyes, and his expression was slightly gloomy.

Three battalions of 3,000 people, the Liao soldiers were naturally the Ming army in Sanshui City, and the other battalion was the infantry that entered the city later, leaving only the last battalion of the guards of Xi'an Mansion.

He understood in an instant what was going on, Tang Jiuzhou had not been in Chunhua City from the beginning.

The Daxu banner of Tang Kyushu and the banner of his army are all fake, and they are all just Hong Chengchou's bluff.

Chunhua City relied on the almost 1,000 guards, and he didn't dare to go south.

The guards were weak, and the few cannons in the army were obtained from the arsenal of the Qingyang guards.

If he took advantage of the situation to go south at the beginning, Chunhua only had more than a thousand guards and remnants of the Liao army, and he could easily break it.

But now it was too late to know, and the reinforcements of the Ming army had arrived, although there were only eight or nine hundred foot soldiers.

But the point is that that the army sent a lot of ordnance, and the Liao cavalry in Chunhua City was already armed.

The Liao soldiers are strong, not only Li Zicheng has a deep understanding, but all the leaders are the same.

Cao Wenzhao's generals in Liao Town, You Shiwei, and Zhang Waijia were also generals in Liao Town.

Those Liao cavalry are fully clothed and armored, and no one can compare to them when they charge through the formation.

If it is an ordinary encounter, seeing the presence of Liao cavalry among the officers and soldiers, the momentum must be shorter first.

Although Zhang Waijia himself has been killed by Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng still has no opinion to underestimate him.

Those Liao cavalry fought one after another during the day today, and they had obviously recovered their combat strength.

Li Zicheng knew very well in his heart that he was able to kill Zhang Waijia and defeat the Liao cavalry in Sanshui City, not because the generals under his command were stronger than those Liao cavalry.

But because of the mental calculation and unintentionality, when they first entered the city, many of those Liao cavalry did not wear armor, and some of them had not even picked up their blades.

But Rao was like this, surrounded by many sides, and more than 900 people were still run away.

It was after the city was broken that the Liao soldiers in the city resisted stubbornly, and it was not until three days later that they completely occupied Sanshui City.

For three days, the corpses piled up in the Liao barracks were almost stacked into a hill, and Zhang Waijia was finally killed.

"Is there any news about the new battalion that will take over the Liao cavalry?"

Li Zicheng's eyes were slightly condensed, what he was most concerned about was who the newly arrived battalion general was, and he had not waved the flag.

"But Cao Bianjiao?"

After fighting for such a long time, Li Zicheng, the general of the Ming army in Shaanxi, the deputy general, etc., is almost clear.

The defeat in the ambush eventually led to the eventual parting of ways between him and Hui Dengxiang.

After breaking through Sanshui City, Li Zicheng learned from the mouths of those captives.

In that ambush battle on the mountain road, they ambushed no one else, it was Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao.

Li Zicheng's question is also the question of most of the generals and colonies, and they all cast their eyes and waited for the answer with bated breath.

"The new battalion general is called Chen Wang, not Cao Bianjiao."

Hearing that it was not Cao Bianjiao, everyone in the military tent was also relieved.

"I heard that this person used to be a family member under Cao Wenzhao."

It's just that in the end, I heard that it had something to do with Cao Wenzhao, and everyone just breathed a sigh of relief and mentioned it a little more.

Li Zicheng waved his hand, stopped the slightly noisy tent, and asked the last question.

"How is the city defense of the officers and soldiers?"

Li Zicheng's voice fell, and the noise among the battalion commanders also dissipated invisibly.

This question is the most important issue today.

Now all that stands in their way is the wall outside Chunhua City.

As long as there is no section of the wall, whether it is street fighting or field fighting, they have nothing to fear.

"The officers and soldiers set up heavy defenses on the walls of the two cities of Dongcheng and Beicheng, and the government recruited many of us to transport materials for defending the city, but we were not allowed to go to the vicinity of the two cities, and the people transported there were all county citizens in Chunhua County."

"But ......"

The soldier kneeling in the center paused before continuing.

"There are only 100 officers and soldiers in the east and south cities, mainly holding the city gates, and most of the people who defend the city are temporarily recruited Chunhua county citizens, and the garrison is quite lax......

"You're pretty sure."

Li Zicheng's eyes were like lightning, staring at the soldier in the tent.

The soldier raised his head, and his momentum changed suddenly.

"Sixty percent ......"

The soldier's expression was solemn, his eyes were solemn, and he replied in a deep voice.

"Three days later, sixty percent of the certainty of taking Nancheng."
