Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

There were only 200 old battalion soldiers dispatched this time, but everyone rode horses, and many even had two horses. The weapons in each hand were also very sophisticated, although only a few generals wore armor, and they were very old-fashioned. The scale armor, but everyone's morale is high, and everyone's face is almost full of fighting spirit.

Ever since he was chased and beaten by Cao Bianjiao and Zuo Guangxian, the two generals, and then lost troops in the Shaanxi-Gansu area, and finally fled to Shangluo Mountain, Chuangying has been in a state of failure.

Two years ago, Chuangying was still a large camp with tens of thousands of people, and its prestige was not inferior to that of Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai, but what about now?

Many soldiers have already regarded this battle as a move to revive the prestige of entering the camp.

"Get ready, I can't wait."[

"This battle hurts Lao Zuo, and if Gucheng and Fangxian are wiped out, everyone is ready to eat rice and mutton with their cheeks off."

"Overthrow the old left, then fight Dengzhou soldiers, and then restore a large team of 10 people, fight back to Shaanxi, and seize Xi'an!"

"Yes, haha, that's right!"

Nine and a half out of ten of the first generals who broke into the camp and the soldiers of the old camp were from Shaanxi, and most of them were from northern Shaanxi. Yulin Mizhi and Yan'an were the most.

When I was away, even if there were more than a dozen or 20 people, Fengyang was beaten and Zhongdu was burned, but deep down I always wanted to go to Tongguan and occupy Xi'an, so that I felt that I had become a climate, no longer a "thief" ".

This kind of psychology is very subtle, and even affected Chuangying's decisions on many major issues.

When he was in Henan, although Kaifeng was flooded, Li Zicheng had already firmly controlled the four prefectures of Wuchang and Xiangyang, which were very wealthy. He managed them and connected Tang, Deng, and Nanyang, and then went to Guide and Luoyang. Slow operation, divided into two routes based on the Central Plains, all the way to Suqian, Huai'an, Liuhe, all the way from Xiangyang to Jiangling, then to Jiujiang, to Anqing, until Jiangnan, so that the Central Plains and Huguang grain production areas, and the most affluent Jiangnan At that time, a partial division will come out of Tongguan, and the main force will go northeast through Shandong to capture Beijing. At that time, there will be a solid foundation, and it is possible to advance or retreat. As long as it is operated for more than one year, the whole place will be as solid as gold.

It's a pity that the soldiers from Shaanxi wanted to go back to Guanzhong. After defeating Sun Chuanting, the first choice to break into the camp was to enter Guanzhong immediately. For Henan, Shandong and Xiangyang, only one Baiwang was released to operate in the four prefectures of Xiangyang, Henan and Shandong, etc. The officials in the land are useless, without guarding soldiers and horses, and are often killed, which is not considered effective governance at all.

Now at this moment, in the hearts of these soldiers, they only want to go back to Guanzhong.

Even Li Zicheng himself, of course, had the same idea in his heart.

He had already sharpened his sword, and he was very satisfied watching the horses leaping.

Xiying and Chuangying, as well as Caoying, have the same methods of fighting and developing. The old battalion is the old battalion, including the women and children of the soldiers, this is the battalion of the entire battalion, it doesn't matter if you lose a hundred times in Sanda, as long as the old battalion is there, you can recover.

Li Zicheng was beaten from tens of thousands to less than 2000, but none of the generals survived, and most of the old battalion was there. Throughout the wars, the people who were engulfed in the outermost periphery acted as human shields. If ten people can kill one officer and soldier, it is a profit. , Come in again, there are some infantry with some weapons, red scarves wrapped around their heads, all holding spears and iron spears and other worthless weapons, some small leaders in the middle are armed with swords and shields, commanding the battle.

Then come in, it is the horse army and the old battalion Xiaoqi. Ordinary horse soldiers are trained from the people who are coerced later. Only those with outstanding martial arts and courage will be promoted to horse soldiers or officers. If there is a chance, they will make a surprise attack, and if there is no chance, they will scatter and flee. All the warriors in the old camp are soldiers who fought ten years ago. Any one of them has experienced hundreds of battles. Think about the tens of millions of people who survived the rebellion. So far, which one is not brave and shrewd?

At this time, Li Zicheng was surrounded by Laoying Xiaoqi and Ma Jun, each of whom was fighting against Zuo Liangyu's rear line, so he was full of confidence.

"Zicheng, let's go, it's almost time!"

He is tall, and his arms are much thicker than usual because he was born in iron. The big man who seems to be overflowing with strength is naturally Liu Zongmin. Behind him are Liu Fangliang, Gu Ying, Xie Junyou and other generals, all wearing helmets. Armor, full of vigor.

Li Zicheng was in a good mood, helped his felt hat, and laughed loudly: "The time for us to raise the banner again is coming soon. In this world, peace can only be achieved by killing all the injustices. Brothers, come with me and the chief whistle, go to battle! Kill officers and soldiers!"

"Kill the officers and soldiers!" [

"Kill, kill all the injustice!"

More than a thousand people raised their weapons in the valley, and the sun near noon gave off a particularly bright brilliance. People shouted, making wild shouts, and thousands of horsemen and horses, all of them strong, seemed to be rushing by one after another. Lightning, led by the scouts, galloped towards the battlefield where the assault was prepared in advance.

After turning over two mounds, Li Zicheng and others saw the flags and troops of officers and soldiers all over the mountains and plains. Because it was the rear formation, he could vaguely see that the left wing of the officers and soldiers was not chaotic, and the right wing was very strong. Fight against Xiying.He made a tired sound, waved the sword in his hand, surrounded by his own guards, and immediately rushed to the formation of officers and soldiers.

A nephew of Zuo Liangyu, about [-] years old, was appointed by Zuo Liangyu as a general, but in fact he has no skills. When he saw a large group of cavalry coming, he was so frightened that he trembled all over his body. In a daze, there was no response at all for a while.Even if the Chinese army realized something was wrong and began to use flag language to command, other generals began to respond to the flag, but this guy who bears the brunt was stunned. It's a battalion soldier from Huguang Town. It's dangerous at this time. Who will work for others?With a cry, all of them fled. Li Zicheng was as fast as lightning, he neither shouted nor spoke, his horse was as fast as lightning, but seeing a flash of cold light, the ginseng surnamed Zuo would not be able to parry or react in time. After being stabbed off the horse by a sword, there was a blood hole the size of a teacup on his chest, and blood gushed up, obviously he was dead.

Kill and disperse this group, and then the strong soldiers of Chuangying continued to fight forward, the banner of "Chuang" was raised high, and it was rattled by the wind.

"Failed, defeated!"

"Another group of strong thieves came, lost today, go, go!"

People have the mentality of following others, once someone calls out for defeat, they will naturally panic. With the shouts from the rear, and seeing a large number of defeated soldiers running around all over the mountains and plains, the soldiers and horses of the left battalion who originally had the advantage on the battlefield All of a sudden, the morale of the army became chaotic.

Seeing Li Zicheng leading the cavalry to kill from behind the formation, Zuo Liangyu knew that not only would he suffer a disastrous defeat, but also that life and death would be in an instant, so he did not hesitate at that moment, and immediately led his most elite standard battalion to meet him. Behind him, the left and right wings The soldiers of the army had already retreated one after another, but the soldiers from the west battalion came back from an attack, and they were able to join forces with Chuangying at most a few miles apart.

At this moment, there was also the sound of fighting from the left, less than ten miles away. Zuo Liangyu arranged soldiers and horses from Xunyang and Xiangyang on the left, led by two deputy generals Tun Shou, now the shouts and fights are so loud, I think it was Cao Ying who came to kill him. Cao Cao is not very good at leading troops, but there are tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, and there are a few capable generals. Man said that the current Zuoying couldn't beat them, even if He Renlong, Mengruhu, Chen Hongfan and other troops were added, it was still a toss-up.

At this time, Zuo Liangyu felt very regretful, but there was no panic on his bronzed face. Under his general flag, he shouted and shouted, urging his general to bring his own army and make peace with his standard battalion. , On Pingchuan in the middle of several small earth mountains, the soldiers and horses of Zuoying Biaoying and Li Zicheng launched an extremely tragic bloody battle on Pingchuan.

The Biaoying camp in Zuo Town was fed by Zuo Liangyu with silver, and there were all the soldiers and servants in it. Everyone was wearing armor, and everyone rode tall horses. They were considered strong and strong. The commander of Zhilue, when he was in Liao Town, he was a small military officer under You Shiwei's command. He once committed a capital crime. His accomplice Qiu Lei protected him, and he was beheaded for all the crimes. Zuo Liangyu escaped by luck. Difficult, later gradually under the command of You Shiwei, You Shiwei also knew his ability, and it happened that once he wanted to lead troops to support the area of ​​Song and Jinzhou. Zuo Liangyu went to the doctor in a hurry when he was inquired about his illness, he sent out a memorial that night, recommended Zuo Liangyu as the deputy general, and gave him several thousand soldiers and horses, Zuo Liangyu won a few small victories, and became a member of the general from then on .

He also experienced many battles in Liaodong, and he swung his sword into battle not once or twice. Although the current situation is dangerous, he is not flustered, and he leads his subordinates to fight hard.The battle only lasted for about two quarters, Zuo Liangyu's standard battalion couldn't stand it anymore, the front was routed, and there were shouts of killing on the left side, and the battalion rushing from the rear was chopping and killing the rear like melons and vegetables Soldiers, even if the standard battalion can withstand Li Zicheng's forward troops, it will be of no avail.

Besides, Zuo Liangyu has to admit that Li Zicheng is a great hero. Liu Zongmin was well-known in the camp, and Liu Fangliang is also a master of guns, but Li Zicheng's performance is also admirable. He is brave, witty, calm and alert, and his swordsmanship is also very skilled. , Swinging on a horse, mastering the strength and sense of distance is beyond the reach of ordinary people. In the crowd, the two main generals are sometimes separated by less than a hundred steps, and they are very close to each other. The determination and determination in the other party's eyes showed that the other party was not a kind person, and Li Zicheng's desire for victory became even stronger.

When the banner of Cao Ying finally appeared, and a large group of soldiers and horses appeared in the valley on the left, Zuo Liangyu himself gave up. They fled to the valley on the right side together. Behind them were the soldiers from the West Camp chasing them. In the rear, there were more than [-] soldiers from the left army routed, scattered all over the mountains and plains. Abandoned armored vehicles, horses, mules and donkeys were even more so. Running everywhere, according to what was said in advance, it is very appropriate to rush into the camp to pursue the rear, the west camp to chase the main force of the Chinese army, and the Cao camp to clean up the battlefields on both sides, and each takes what he needs.

At this time, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were the closest. Liu Zongmin rode over, his body covered in blood, and asked, "Zicheng, do you want us to stay here and just meet here? Why do you have to?" Wait until Wangjiazhai to meet again, so serious!"

"Just wait."

Li Zicheng smiled slightly, sheathed his sword, and made a subconscious decision.
