Chapter 283: Qiangguan Youyou's Frost All Over the Ground (9)
At this moment, a sound of horses' hooves sounded rapidly, Tian Jianxiu, who was in charge of the broken back, sent a small colonel, he rode a fast horse from the south galloped over, the small colonel jumped off the horse and greeted the brothers in the standard camp, while hurriedly running up to the mound, "Report! The two generals Tian and Gu asked the last general to report to the king, and the officers and soldiers who caught up behind had already begun to attack, at this moment Cao Bianjiao was in the front, He Renlong's men and horses were on the right, and Zuo Guangxian's men and horses appeared on the left. ”
Li Zicheng nodded, glanced at the south casually, and said, "Uh, I know." Go back and tell General Gu and General Tian that they should take it easy and not kill all the enemies, and say that I will arrive later. ”
The little colonel sent by Tian Jianxiu to report the incident got Li Zicheng's message, and immediately ran down the mound quickly, he jumped on the war horse, and whipped it violently, and the good horse outside his mouth suddenly felt pain, and ran south with a cloud of smoke and dust.
Li Zicheng still stayed where he was, waiting for the arrival of the Chinese army brigade led by Gao Yi, and thinking about a plan to break the enemy in battle. He had already seen the situation clearly at this time, Zuo Guangxian and the others were really as Li Guo expected, seeing that he was not breaking through to the Lancao Pass in Lushi County, they had already transferred all the troops and joined the camp that pursued him.
He knew that in the troops under the command of Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting, Zuo Guangxian was also an extremely warlike commander-in-chief, and his troops were not like Zu Dabi who was blocking in front of him, and they often fought alone, and once they entangled the main general, the whole team was like a plate of scattered sand; Zuo Guangxian's men and horses were well-trained, and their combat effectiveness was second only to Cao Bianjiao's troops, and they were stronger than the troops of several other generals.
As for He Renlong, he was brave in battle, but the military discipline of the troops was very poor, and he had already figured out how to deal with it just now. When he thought of He Renlong, he couldn't help but think of the rebel 'Great Heavenly King' Gao Jie, a wisp of hatred and shame drifted through his cold heart, and Li Zicheng unconsciously bit the root of his teeth.
Not long after, the Chinese army and the old battalion of Gao Yigong also arrived. At this time, the Chinese army in the camp was already all cavalry, and even the men and men all had horses. At this time, because of the urgency of the situation, not only were all the soldiers, children's soldiers, cooking soldiers, and wounded soldiers ready to fight at any time, but even the dependents of several generals, whether old or weak or women, were holding swords one by one, waiting to fight with the officers and soldiers who were close to them.
Li Zicheng said hello to Gao Yigong, who rushed first, and he himself walked down the mound surrounded by more than a dozen partial generals and personal soldiers, turned over and jumped onto the oolong horse that was bowing his head and gnawing on the grass roots, tightened the cotton armor on his body, and ordered, "Li Shuangxi stays and sits in command of the Chinese army on my behalf with the old battalion! Gao Yigong, you personally go to order all 500 Chinese army standard battalions and follow me across the river." ”
"King Chuang, tell us to go too?" Li Zicheng didn't wait for Luo Hu, the leader of the boy scouts, to finish speaking, he cut off his words, and ordered with a serious expression: "You don't have to go, follow your Shuangxi side to protect the old camp!"
Li Zicheng saw that Gao Yigong had finished the whole team, he took out his sword and pointed at the river beach, and hurriedly ordered, "Yigong, you bring someone with me!"
At this time, the officers and soldiers who were densely covered with the river beach had already discovered the abnormal movement here, and then saw Li Zicheng's banner fluttering in the standard camp of the Chinese army, and the cavalry of the purge had gathered behind Li Zicheng's back to the other side of the river, and the men and horses were gradually gathered into a phalanx behind the mound not far from the river bank.
Soon, more than 2,000 officers and troops, under the command of a general armed with a machete, set up a position along the north bank of the Xiaohe River in an attempt to stop Li Zicheng's standard battalion from crossing the river to aid Liu Zongmin and others.
Li Zicheng urged the horse to the river beach, the iron hooves of the oolong horse stood still in the cold blood water, and Li Zicheng just calmly took off the hard bow behind his back. In this era dominated by cold weapons, a superb archery can be described as the existence of a Super Saiyan, if you set people's physical strength and energy to be endless, it is better than Bartley M82A1.
Zhang Nai is also a skilled archer, and he is bent on separating himself from the Condor Archer Zu Dabi, so he hurriedly asked Li Zicheng: "King Chuang, let me come!"
Zicheng glanced at Zhang Nai, and said in the tone of getting up early and sending someone out to buy breakfast: "Okay, you shoot that enemy general first, and then snatch his horse for me." ”
Zhang Nai didn't say a word, he put on a carved arrow casually, and he didn't need to aim in particular, only to see him raise his arms, and then open the bow like a full moon, and at the sound of a bowstring, the enemy general who was waving a knife and shouting on the opposite bank had been hit by an arrow in his throat, his head was crooked, and he rolled off the horse with a "bang".
Before the officers and soldiers around him could rescue the general who had been hit by the arrow, Zhang Nai's second arrow shot the standard-bearer holding the battle flag next to him off his horse, and a military flag that was waving in the wind shook violently, and it was thrown into the river with a sound of water.
Taking advantage of the panic of the officers and soldiers on the other side, Li Zicheng leaned the sword shining with cold light in his hand, knocked his feet lightly on the stirrups, and said lightly in his mouth, "Rush!"
His oolong colt had already flown over the river like a meteor, and the moment he leaped across the river, a few ripples appeared on the water, and the steed rose into the air, and had reached the opposite bank, and before the exclamation of the enemy could be exited, he had rushed straight into the middle of the army.
Zhang Nai and Gao Yigong, one left and one right, followed closely behind the horses of Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, and behind them were dozens of partial generals and five hundred cavalrymen with fierce expressions. This torrent swirled and broke the embankment made of flesh and blood by the 2,000 officers and soldiers, who, regardless of shouting and shouting, rushed to the place where the enemy's cavalry had the most and waved the banner of the word "ancestor."
Wherever this rushing torrent rushed through, a rolling earth dragon rose from the smoke, and in the smoke and dust there was only the dull sound of a terrifying sharp blade entering the flesh, and in a moment there was the sound of the clashing of metal and the sound of knives and swords slashing against metal armor and flesh.
The Liaodong Tiger General Zu Dabi and the Hussar General Sun Xianzu thought that the peasant army was already a tired division, and that there were not many of them, so they should be vulnerable; they did not expect that these hungry, tired, and ragged people would burst out with amazing combat power, and they would attack with a ferocious attack that was completely desperate.
With hundreds of cavalry and eight or nine thousand infantry troops, the two of them surrounded Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang, Hao Shaoqi, Yuan Zongdi and other four generals, and the remaining 2,000 people and horses of the four generals were immediately excited when they saw the big banner of the word "Chuang", so as soon as they made contact, the men and horses of the two generals were about to retreat.
