Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1390

In the wilderness, soldiers of the Wu army mixed together on foot and cavalry, and fled south in a hurry.

The soldiers of the Wu army discarded their guns and spears, and many of them took off their cotton armor and helmets. The entire north of Lishan Mountain was full of defeated troops.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Sangui gave up the unnecessary attack on Li Guozhong's army. He saw that he was trapped in the formation, and the Ming army on the left and right flanks had already driven the Jin army to the corner of Lishan Mountain. , the general situation has already collapsed, so he immediately chose to break out and escape from the battlefield.

At this time, Wu Jun, who was in the wild, ran wildly in the field, screaming and killing behind him, and countless red figures shouted and chased after him.

The defeated army fled south in panic. He Chengzhi, Wang Pingfan and other generals intended to stabilize their position on the front line of Lishan.

The discouraged soldiers of the Wu army bypassed them one after another. He Chengzhi and others were like wooden stakes nailed into the river.

"Not good! They're coming!" Behind He Chengzhi, hundreds of rout soldiers gathered, and suddenly one of them pointed in front and exclaimed loudly.

These hundreds of defeated troops in disheveled clothes, holding spears, and holding a flag were standing behind He Chengzhi. When they looked up, a group of golden cavalry fled south around Lishan Mountain. They suddenly appeared behind them, a patch of red The wave of the waves can kill them in no time.

"Run!" There was an uproar among the defeated soldiers, and the flag-bearer threw away the flag, and hundreds of defeated soldiers immediately dispersed.

In just a split second, He Chengzhi managed to gather a few troops, only a dozen or so personal guards remained.

"General, let's run!" A soldier said anxiously with fear on his face.

He Chengzhi had already seen that the cavalry who had just bypassed Mount Li and fled south were none other than the cavalry led by Wu Sangui.Now Wu Sangui was not able to stop the Ming army, and fled in a hurry.

At this time, a large red figure appeared in front of them. The Ming army followed closely behind the defeated Wu army. The Jin army's infantry had no chance to regroup and rebuild their defense line.

When He Chengzhi was hesitating, Wang Pingfan, who was ordered to gather the defeated army not far away, saw the collapse of the situation, and stomped his feet and pulled his horse south.

On the battlefield, thousands of army cavalry galloped ahead, and tens of thousands of Ming army infantry rushed southward.

Since the southern line was defeated, Li Guo had to go west to Lintong County behind the Jin Army before Hauge's retreat and cut off the way for the Jin Army to withdraw to Chang'an.

If the movements were slow and Hauge ran away, even though the Jin army was defeated, their vitality was still there.

Unlike the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, the Kingdom of Jin did not have a foundation of popular opinion. It had been established for more than ten years and stabilized and resumed production in Guanzhong, allowing the Kingdom of Jin to have a certain foundation in Guanzhong.

After the Ming army fought this battle, if they did not want to attack Chang'an City, they must try their best to wipe out the main force of the Jin army, so that the Jin army would not have the strength to defend Chang'an.

At this time, the Ming army had chased for more than ten miles, and the sun was past noon, but the soldiers forgot about hunger and fatigue, and did not intend to give up the pursuit.

The thousands of cavalry in front were already red-eyed, and wherever the horses passed, they left corpses all over the place.The cavalry kept rushing into the broken soldiers, slashing and killing, and the sabers in their hands were already full of the enemy's blood.The gold generals and soldiers who were fleeing looked back and saw the cavalry rushing up again. They couldn't help but tremble with fear, and at the same time, there was some grief and anger in their hearts.

On the battlefield, the cavalry galloped, and everyone stared at the prey in front of them, retracting their spears in their hands, ready to stab out after approaching.

A cavalry general rushed forward, stabbed a fleeing infantryman to the ground, then quickly drew back his spear, and stared at the fleeing general of the Jin army in front.

The golden general felt the threat from behind him, so he leaned on his horse and rushed. The Ming army general's eyes turned cold, and he threw the spear in his hand directly. The spear failed to hit the golden general, passed over his head, and stuck in front of the horse. On the ground, the spear shaft vibrated again and again, making a buzzing sound.

The golden general and the horse were frightened at the same time, the horse neighed, and its front hooves hung high in the air, almost throwing the golden general off the horse's back. Fall heavily.

He was just about to gallop away when a gust of wind came from behind, and the young general galloped behind him, and with a wave of his saber, General Jin fell off his horse.

This Ming general is called Gao Ruixin, he is the second son of Gao Yigong, and before he knew it, the second generation of generals in the Ming army had already begun to make their mark in the army.

Behind the cavalry, Li Guo led the army and followed closely. When he saw Mount Li from a distance, he couldn't help waving his whip and said, "Order, the former army will take down Mount Li, and don't let the Jin army reorganize the defense line."

To the south of Lishan Mountain, Li Benshen quickly ran into the fleeing Jin army, but the soldiers of the Jin army did not feel at ease when they saw this reinforcement army of nearly ten thousand people, let alone stop, and walked past them one after another.

Seeing this, Li Benshen grabbed a member of the Qianhu officer of the Golden Army. The Qianhu was only focused on running for his life, but he didn't see who was pulling him. He instinctively shook his hand and wanted to break free. Who knew that Li Benshen was so strong that he grabbed his arm. But it didn't move.

"What are you doing, looking for death!" Qianhu couldn't help being furious, and looked at each other angrily, but when he turned his head, he heard a sound of drawing a knife, several elite soldiers, standing behind the general who captured him, drew out half of their swords one after another, and shouted angrily : "Do you want to die, dare to be rude to our army!"

The Qianhu froze immediately, shrank his neck, was startled, and apologized embarrassingly, but Li Benshen didn't care about this, and hurriedly waved his hand and asked, "What's going on next, where are you King of Shu?"

Qianhu replied: "I don't know the situation behind. The Ming army was very aggressive. As soon as our infantry fought, we were shot and defeated by the Ming army. The king of Shu is still behind. I just saw it. Ma Jun's brothers took a detour and fled south, so it is estimated that the prince also lost."

Li Benshen and the generals heard the words, their faces sank, and the soldiers behind them were a little flustered.

Seeing this, Qianhu couldn't help whispering: "This military sect has come to reinforce us, how many troops have he brought?"

Li Benshen looked gloomy and did not answer. A general behind him said, "We have 1 people."

Qianhu listened, shook his head with a wry smile, and pointed to the back, "There are 12 Ming soldiers chasing after me, I advise you generals to flee as soon as possible!"

Li Benshen's complexion changed, and he waved away those thousands of households. Many generals surrounded him, looked at him with heavy faces, and couldn't help saying: "Junmen, we~"

Li Benshen raised his hand and stopped the general from continuing. He looked at the Jin army fleeing in the wild, and walked southward from them.The organization of these people and horses was already chaotic, and they looked very embarrassed. He heard the shouts of killing and had already reached the north of Lishan Mountain, and the gathering was only about five or six miles away.

At such a short distance, no one is behind. Once the Ming army catches up, all the tens of thousands of defeated soldiers will be finished.

"Going up Lishan Mountain, if you can block it for a while, you have to buy time for His Majesty to retreat!" Li Benshen said with a sudden wave, holding the handle of the knife tightly.

The generals hesitated to speak, but no one objected to his opinion after all.Li Benshen is Gao Jie's nephew, Xuzhou surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and then fought in the South and North, and was a relatively capable team in the Green Camp.After the Great War in the Central Plains, he retreated into Tongguan with Meng Qiaofang, and was named Marquis of Dingdong by Hauge, General Military Officer of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and was highly regarded.

Several soldiers and horses under Gao Jie Town are relatively strong in combat power. After retreating to the Kingdom of Jin, they have been supplemented and taken care of. In the past few years, life has been much better than in the Qing Dynasty. Not only in terms of materials, but also in spirit. , coupled with the moderate ethnic policy, so their loyalty to gold is relatively high.

After Li Benshen finished speaking, seeing that the generals were silent, he didn't say much, and immediately got on his horse, and all the generals had to follow.

At this time, the soldiers of the Li family who were walking in front kept yelling, "Get out of the way, don't get in the way."

When the fleeing Jin army found this retrograde army, they couldn't help but make way for a passage, with strange eyes shining in their eyes.

"What are you looking at, someone is blocking the Ming thief for us, why don't you run so fucking fast, and want to die in the hands of the Ming thief?" A flag team saw a soldier standing on the side of the road in a daze, and pushed , scolded angrily.

Hearing the words, the soldiers came to their senses, looking at the friendly army that was going up against the rout, the soldiers admired their courage, and had a desire to walk with them, but after all, their own lives were more important.

At this time, the soldiers of the Li family were running in a hurry, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in their hearts, but at the same time, they also had a trace of pride...
