Bundles of torches were extinguished, braziers were toppled, and more and more places returned to darkness.

In the darkness, the cries of despair, the screams of the wounded, and the roar of the firecrackers were all overwhelmed by the thunderous sound of horses' hooves.

The horses neighed, and the knights on horseback charged forward.

There is no need to aim, no need to observe, and all the soldiers in the cavalry formation are extremely familiar with night battles.

All they need to do is shoot arrows or bullets at the periphery of the cavalry formation, and they can reap the lives of their enemies.

The iron hooves of the war horses trampled over one rogue after another, and the outermost cavalry saddled and jumped on the horse, holding a cold saber, and their wrists were constantly churning and chopping.

Those soldiers who did not have time to flee fell to their swords and were cut to the ground.

The saber was like a scythe in an autumn field, except that the scythe cut down the wheat stalks, and they cut down their own kind......

Chen Wang had already pulled out the saber at his waist at this time, and after he stabbed a soldier in the chest, he abandoned the spear.

The spear was often used only as a disposable weapon when cavalry charged.

The action of force is mutual, the extremely fast movement speed of the war horse, the powerful impact force that can be exerted on the spear in the hands of the cavalry.

But the same tremendous reaction force is exerted on it.

Once the general spear stabs the enemy, if it is not withdrawn in time, the huge shock force will come, which can easily cause the user's arm to be injured or even fall off the horse.

Horse lances are not quite the same as spears, and most spears are not as tough as horse lances.

The horses and lances used are generally not stabbed, but are mostly slashed like sabers.

It can be simply understood as an extended version of the saber, but it is actually okay.

Although Chen Wang can use it and has practiced, the cost of the horse lance is expensive.

And it is best to order it according to the user, and he is not in a position to order the horse lance now.

However, with the saber in hand, facing a group of panicked enemy troops who were already in collapse, the saber was obviously enough.

The cavalry of the Ming army was like a sharp knife, easily disemboweling the large array of the army in the east of Chunhua City.

Throwing away the spear, Chen Wang did not charge on the front line again.

The crockpot will not be broken from Inoue, and the general will inevitably die in battle.

Although Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao often charge in battle, they are not always in front.

What's more, as the commander on the battlefield today, he can't just focus on fighting, he also needs to look at the overall situation.

The fire that had already ignited in the rear of the camp was even bigger than Chen Wang had expected.

The panic it caused was far greater than Chen Wang had predicted.

The intrusive army outside the city had already collapsed the moment the fire ignited.

Chen Wang did not panic, although the plan has changed, it is all in a better direction.

The trumpets in the cavalry were constantly sounding, and even in the darkness there were torches and other lighting, but it was still difficult to distinguish between direction and friend and foe.

Although the banner is tall, it is impossible to see it from a little further away.

Therefore, at the beginning, Chen Wang had already stipulated that the exchange of subsequent battles out of the city would be carried out by cavalry to communicate with each other.

It's not difficult to learn, just memorize a few specific horn sounds.

The cavalry of Liaozhen did not fight at night, and most of the troops exchanged with each other in night battles.

According to the original plan, drive the rout of the enemy army all the way.

"Woo————"

The low sound of the trumpet echoed in the sky above the eastern city of Chunhua.

Chen Wang glanced back behind him, but his gaze did not see in the distance, and was already blocked by a group of fully armed generals behind him.

The collar armor shone in the light of the fire, and the erected sabers reflected the light of the flame swords.

In fact, most of the battalion soldiers of the Ming army never lacked courage.

A soldier bears a nest of bears.

The ones who really lacked courage were actually most of the generals in the Ming army.

For example, in the Battle of Songjin, if the siege was broken out in an orderly manner according to Hong Chengchou's plan, the main force of the Ming army had a great possibility of withdrawing to Ningyuan.

However, Wang Pu, the commander of Datong, took the lead in fleeing regardless of the plan, which triggered a chain reaction.

The soldiers and horses of all walks of life were not ready, and when they saw Wang Pu fleeing first, they also fled in a hurry with their subordinates and generals.

As a result, the soldiers and horses fled in confusion, and the cavalry and infantry trampled on each other.

In the darkness, friends and foes are unknown, and it is chaotic, and it is impossible to distinguish which way it is.

The number of people killed by the Qing army was not even as many as the Ming army's self-trampling to death.

When Chen Wang looked back at the people behind him, many people behind him also looked at Chen Wang.

They were subordinate to Chen Wang before, only because of four points, one because of military orders, two because of fear, three because of power, and four because of his shortcomings, as well as clear rewards and punishments.

But after tonight, a little more reason was added.

The generals are brave and brave in battle, and they are always able to convince the soldiers.

Chen Wang was covered in blood, and he killed two generals and colonels one after another, which already made everyone's hearts rise.

Chen Wang didn't know the change in the hearts of the soldiers behind him, he only heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him weakening.

He knew that Hu Zhili was already leading the cavalry of another division, and according to the original plan, he drove the rout of the army all the way to the west.

Most of the elite under Li Zicheng's command were attacking the northern city, and the other part was hidden outside the southern city.

Li Zicheng designed the inside and the outside, and planned to prepare to capture Chunhua tonight, which must be the best of the best.

There must not be many soldiers in the garrison camp, and they are not very guarded.

Now that the camp behind the army is in chaos and turned into a sea of fire, it is the time to panic.

Seeing the soldiers attacking the city in front of him fleeing in a row, how can they not be defeated?

As long as it can disrupt the front camp of the invading army and kill the routed soldiers all the way, the collapse of more than 100,000 invading troops will only be in the morning.

It may seem like a fantasy to defeat more than 100,000 people with only 400 horsemen, but all this is not impossible.

But sometimes wars are like this, and since ancient times, there have been countless battles in which fewer have won more.

The current army is an ordinary rogue, a daring fighter, and a capable fighter, but in fact, there are only a few horse soldiers and elite cavalry.

The sound of horses' hooves continued to echo in Chen Wang's ears, which also made his originally floating heart slowly calm down.

As the main general, Li Zicheng could only be in the northern suburbs of Chunhua City and command the attack on the northern city.

The reason is simple, because it is the best place to command and coordinate the whole battle.

Chen Wang led his troops all the way north, and his goal was very clear - to capture and kill Li Zicheng!

A raging fire burned in Chen Wang's chest.

As for what kind of impact it will have on the future after killing Li Zicheng, Chen Wang didn't think much about it.

Because none of this matters, the time when Li Zicheng really had the ability to influence the process of the world was twelve years after Chongzhen, not now.

Chen Wang felt that according to the current situation, whether he killed Li Zicheng or not.

In the twelfth year of Chongzhen, the world will become unrecognizable.

Things that are too far away in the future, Chen Wang doesn't want to think about it.

Chen Wang only knew one thing now, as long as he killed Li Zicheng, he would be able to completely defeat the more than 100,000 troops outside Chunhua City.

The military merits obtained were enough for him to be promoted to a general or even a deputy general, enough to make him famous, and let him accumulate a lot of prestige in the army.

Not only that, but he was also able to rely on being able to get Hong Chengchou's trust, and even left a very heavy weight in Chongzhen's heart.

Although Chongzhen has many flaws, once he is suspicious of someone, most of his life is difficult to protect.

But when Chongzhen trusts a person, when he wants to use a person, he never stingy with promotion rewards.
