In this battle, Li Zicheng learned a lesson, and after consulting with Liu Zongmin, Li Guo, Li Laiheng and others, he formulated the strategy of "dead soldiers and infantry first, armor soldiers and cavalry second", and used a large number of dead soldiers to consume Liu Yan's troops.

But when the fight really started, Li Zicheng was shocked to find that even if those dead soldiers were driven and rushed forward continuously, they still couldn't rush in front of the new army, and they could no longer move forward dozens of steps in front of the terrible bird gun formation.

At this moment, Li Zicheng saw a terrible scene in the clairvoyant mirror, countless dead soldiers and infantry rushed forward one after another, and then were killed by the continuous salvo of birds, dozens of steps forward in front of the battalions of the new army, and piled up an arc-shaped corpse pile, just like the low wall built by Liu Yanbu in the last battle!

And with the death of a large number of dead soldiers and infantry, fear has spread among the bandit battalions, even those armored soldiers and horsemen who have not yet been put into battle in the rear, looking at the sea of corpses and blood in front of them at this moment, looking at the new military formation that is standing still, their hearts have begun to beat drums, and the previous fighting spirit has begun to fade rapidly.

"Can't wait any longer!"

Li Laiheng looked at the battle ahead and understood that if he waited any longer, when the armor soldiers and horsemen in the army also began to fear the battle, then there was really no chance of winning at all.

"Immediately ask King Chuang for battle, and the soldiers of my front battalion will ......"

Before Li Laiheng finished speaking, a cannonball fell on the middle army in the front camp of the thieves, and the two horsemen were swept through by the cannonball, and a cloud of blood mist suddenly exploded, and half of Li Laiheng's body was stained red with blood, and he screamed in shock, and hurriedly rode his horse to the side.

Immediately after that, shells continued to fall around, and these shells were fired

The artillery on the closed city fired, Chen Yongfu was also ruthless after receiving Liu Yan's order, his future military exploits were fought here, and he didn't care about the danger of exploding, and constantly commanded all the gunners to open fire, aiming at the nearest thief firearms battalion and the elite of the front battalion.

At this time, there was a commotion among the soldiers in the front battalion of the thieves, and even the horsemen around Li Laiheng were ready to move, and many horsemen began to ride their horses and retreat, and Li Laiheng suddenly fell into an ice cellar when he saw this: The army's heart is gone!

But the war had just begun, and Li Laiheng would never admit defeat at this time, nor would he care about disobeying Li Zicheng's order, so he immediately ordered the whole battalion to charge: "Rush forward!" ”

Zuo Guoyi generals Gu Kecheng and Xie Junyou, and right Guoyi general Tian Hu received Li Laiheng's order and led the 30,000 armor soldiers of the thieves' front battalion to start to step forward.

Li Laiheng personally supervised the 8,000 horsemen of the front camp, and then followed. At this time, more than half of the 30,000 foot soldiers and dead soldiers in the front battalion of the thieves had been killed or wounded, and the remaining 10,000 people had begun to rout, mixed with the rout of the firearms battalion, rushing backwards in horror and directly colliding with the 30,000 armor soldiers.

Seeing this, Li Laiheng was furious, and immediately ordered to kill the rout, Gu Kecheng led thousands of armor soldiers to cover the front, and killed all the rout soldiers who were panicked and cried for mercy, and finally caused a large number of rout soldiers to resist and fight with the soldiers and horses of the front camp in front of the battle.

At the same time, the situation of the left and right battalions of the thieves was similar, with a large number of dead soldiers and infantry fleeing and fleeing with the armored soldiers and horsemen behind

Bumping into each other, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of horses, crowded and clashed with each other, and as far as the eye could see, the battlefield was full of mushy rogue soldiers and horses.

Li Zicheng's eyes widened, and he looked at the chaotic military formation in front of him with anger, relying on the sacrifice of tens of thousands of dead soldiers, the battalions of the army advanced to the position of dozens of steps in front of Liu Yan's formation. But now, with the defeat of the dead soldiers and infantry of the battalions one after another, the armored soldiers and cavalry in the rear failed to rush forward in time, resulting in the huge sacrifice in exchange for all the results!

"Order all battalions to rush up and open the way!"

Li Zicheng ordered angrily, but Li Yan and Gu Junen next to him hurriedly dissuaded.

Li Yan said: "You can't break into the king! Our army's formation is in chaos, and even if the battalions rush up, they will not be able to disperse Liu Yan's army formation, so it is better to collect troops and return to the camp for the time being. First order all departments to build shield vehicles, imitate Liu Yan's department to prepare sandbags to prevent artillery, and then choose a day to fight again! ”

Gu Junen said: "Liu Yanbu's firearms are too sharp, and our army can't suppress it at all when they charge like this. Moreover, our righteous army lacks archers, and the sporadic archers in each battalion can't suppress Liu Yanbu's bird guns at all. ”

Although Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing were at odds, and at the same time, they were not used to Li Yan's upright and gentlemanly style, but at this time, they had to stand up in solidarity, and they all discouraged Li Zicheng's impulses, thinking that the battalions of the righteous army should be withdrawn.

Li Zicheng looked at the four military divisions who agreed on the same opinion, although he was very reluctant in his heart, he still suppressed the anger in his heart, thought for a while, and said: "The hit battalion will withdraw first, and the left and right battalions will slowly retreat." ”

"The pre-battalion and the firearms battalion followed

Continue to attack Liu Yan's army formation, for the queen of the army! ”

Li Yan, Gu Junen, Song Xiance, and Niu Jinxing were all relieved when they saw this, and Li Zicheng finally listened to the persuasion and hurriedly sent someone to pass the order.

However, at this time, the bandit battalions were already in chaos, and although there were dozens of soldiers and horses sent out by Li Zicheng to give orders, these soldiers rode through the chaotic military formation, and they could not quickly find their positions, and even many of the heralds were killed by artillery.

So Li Zicheng, Li Yan and others were surprised to find that the military order had been issued for a long time, but the battalions of the righteous army were still doing their own thing, and they were all continuing to move forward, or colliding with those routs.

"What's going on!"

Li Zicheng was finally angry, this battle was too annoying, first more than 400 artillery pieces did not play their due role at all, and then the army failed to attack, and then wanted to withdraw the army back, and the battalions could not withdraw.

Now Li Zicheng feels that his Chinese army has lost its effect, as if he is a deaf and blind person, even if he knows the surrounding situation, he can't react accordingly at all!

"Send another messenger immediately!"

Li Yan immediately volunteered and went to deploy people to pass the order.

Suddenly, there was a cheer of "Wan Sheng" from the battlefield ahead, Li Zicheng hurriedly raised the clairvoyant mirror, only to see Liu Yan's personal guard battalion and middle battalion attacking, more than 20,000 people in the two battalions marched forward in formation, Li Dingguo, Sun Kewang, and Ai Nengqi led the firearms battalion had been completely defeated, and in the chaotic crowd, Li Zicheng couldn't even find where the battle flags of the three people were!

"Order Li Laiheng's front battalion to stop moving, immediately stick to the spot, and block Liu Yan's counterattack for me!"

"Command left and right

The two battalions immediately attacked the flank of Liu Yan's department, immediately! ”

At this moment, Li Zicheng understood that Liu Yan would not let himself withdraw his troops, and with the more than 20,000 new troops attacking, Li Zicheng knew that it was impossible for the army to withdraw smoothly.

"Forward!"

Liu Yan marched in the middle of the military formation, the middle battalion led by Shen Tuo was in front, and the personal guard battalion led by Liu Yan and Miao Shao took over the original defensive position of the front battalion, and the two battalions advanced two hundred steps.

At this time, Liu Yan looked at the bandit firearms battalion that had collapsed in front of him, and after searching for a while, he found that the battle flags of Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi were about to withdraw to the front camp of the thieves.

"Run fast!"

Subsequently, Liu Yan saw Sun Kewang's battle flag in the chaos, and couldn't help sneering, pointed to Sun Kewang's battle flag, and said to the herald: "Herald cavalry battalion, tell Xu Ming that he still owes the town a general to capture the flag, and ordered him to immediately lead his troops to attack and kill the thief leader Sun Kewang for me!" ”

At this time, the 17,000 pikemen led by Sun Kewang had been dispersed by a large number of routs, and there were only more than 6,000 pikemen left around Sun Kewang, and this place had also become the forefront of the entire rogue battle array.

However, Sun Kewang did not dare to retreat at this time, because the more than 6,000 people around him had already shaken the hearts of the army, and Sun Kewang could see fear and uneasiness in the eyes of every soldier. At this time, the order to retreat was given, and these more than 6,000 people would collapse on the spot.

"Blow the trumpet!"

There was no way, Sun Kewang had no choice but to order the trumpet to blow and ask Li Dingguo for help, hoping that reinforcements would come over to pick him up.

But at this time, the battlefield was full of chaotic shouts and horns, and the call for help was soon drowned out in all kinds of sounds, and it was already crippled

Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi, who had withdrawn to the camp in front of the thieves, could not hear it at all.

Just when Sun Kewang was panicking, a roar of iron hooves came, and Xu Ming led more than 8,000 cavalry battalion soldiers to rush into the chaos and kill Sun Kewang's department.

Xu Ming, who received the order, was already red-eyed, and this time he couldn't take a thief head, so he wouldn't go back, and he would die directly on the battlefield.

"Charge! Full speed ahead! ”

More than 8,000 soldiers of the cavalry battalion charged at full speed, and the rolling iron cavalry army swept through the chaotic battlefield, the thieves along the way, the blocked armor soldiers, and the horsemen who lost their speed and spun in place were all swept away, killed, and defeated, and Xu Ming's troops were like no one!

Rumble!

When the cavalry battalion was about to hit Sun Kewang's department, thousands of bird guns fired at the same time, and under the smoke of gunpowder, the phalanx composed of more than 6,000 pikemen was instantly defeated, and as two or three hundred rogue soldiers were hit and fell, a huge gap appeared in front, and Xu Ming led his troops to kill directly along this gap.

Sun Kewang's troops were defeated!

At this time, thousands of pikemen turned and ran, letting the cavalry battalion soldiers rush past them, allowing countless spears and sabers to harvest their companions, and everyone was only concerned about fleeing for their lives, completely exposing their backs.

Sun Kewang was the same, riding his horse and galloping, but he was very unlucky to be stopped by a pile of corpses, the war horse tripped over the corpse, Sun Kewang flew out directly, and fell heavily to the ground.

Xu Ming led his troops to chase behind, and when he saw Sun Kewang falling from his horse, he laughed and led his troops to rush up, shouting: "Kill the remnants of the enemy, take down the thief's head for Lao Tzu, whether you live or die!" ”

week

The soldiers of the cavalry battalion cheered and rode their horses up, and the dozens of guards who followed Sun Kewang were slaughtered in a blink of an eye, and Sun Kewang's battle flag of General Zuo Guoyi was also cut down.

At this time, although Sun Kewang fell to the ground, he still gritted his teeth and got up from the pile of corpses, looked at Xu Ming in front of him, and knew that it was the general of the new army, so he shouted loudly: "I am Sun Kewang, General Zuo Guoyi of the firearms battalion, I surrender, I am willing to abandon the darkness and surrender to the light, and die for General Liu!" ”

The surrounding cavalry battalion soldiers surrounded Sun Kewang, and Xu Ming also rode over, staring at Sun Kewang for a long time, his face was very entangled.

"Please transfer the general on your behalf, the last general is willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and from now on the saddle horse for General Liu, the last general knows a lot of Li thief's situation and is willing to ......"

Xu Ming looked at Sun Kewang's smiling face, and suddenly slapped him, directly knocking Sun Kewang unconscious, and then said: "You all saw it, this kid was captured by me with one blow, tied up to Lao Tzu, and brought it back!" ”
