Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 431 Bloody Battle at Gaobeidian
He is eight feet tall, with a wide mouth, a face like purple pig liver, a slight beard, an iron helmet and iron armor, and a purple battle robe. He holds two knives in one hand, sits on an oolong horse, and has a Shaanxi accent in his mouth. People, this is Liu Zongmin in Zhu Yousong's first impression.

Liu Zongmin is worthy of being a big thief, and he still looks pale when he is trapped, and he talks and laughs happily, making fun of Zhu Yousong with the incident of the Fu Lu Banquet. biggest provocation.

It stands to reason that Zhu Yousong should have his beard and hair blown up, and immediately sent an order to cut Liu Zongmin and others into pieces, but Zhu Yousong was not annoyed at all, as if this matter had nothing to do with him. In fact, the Fulu Banquet five years ago really had nothing to do with him. There is no relationship between half a dime.If you have to say that there is a relationship, at most it is public opinion.

Zhu Yousong smiled lightly, "Thank you for reminding me, I will settle these matters with you and the intruder sooner or later, don't worry, the time will definitely not be less than three thousand dollars! However, today I have no plan to destroy I will kill you, but you are only allowed to leave alive, one person and one rider. If you want, I will send a decree to let them get out of the way, and you can go. The rest are best to surrender. You are not Tartars, of course I don’t They will kill them all and give preferential treatment to the captives, but if you don’t know the current affairs and stubbornly resist, then you can’t blame me for being cruel and merciless.”

"Hahahaha..." Liu Zongmin looked up and laughed loudly, "Funjun, I said how you have lived and become younger in the past few years. It turns out that you are relying on whimsy to make fun of yourself. That old guy in Chongzhen hanged himself. Look at you bragging to death! What, let me go alone, why is that?"

Zhu Yousong smiled slyly, "It's okay to tell you, do you know Wu Sangui? He said he would let me spare you, and he wanted to end something with you in Shanhaiguan. The condition he gave me was to give Chen Yuanyuan to me and let me release him." For you, I shouldn't have meddled in the affairs of the two of you, but it's not for other reasons. Chen Yuanyuan is the first of the Qinhuai Eight Beauties. I have no other hobbies in my life except women and wine, so I agreed to him. How can I break my promise? ?”

After Zhu Yousong said this, the faces of Ma Jinhua and He Xuanjiao beside him were a little flushed, and they thought to themselves, our Majesty is really romantic, and he is still thinking about someone named Chen Yuanyuan?Who is Chen Yuanyuan?This means that she should be a great beauty, but is she more beautiful than our two sisters?
The distance is like a mountain, and Ma Jinhua and He Xuanjiao are young and inexperienced, so they don't know Chen Yuanyuan.But it should be a wife?

Immediately understood, their majesty Zhu Yousong was playing tricks again, just like Erqi Fan Wencheng, openly begging Dorgon for Fan Wencheng's youngest and most beautiful wife in exchange for Hauge!

At this time, Liu Zongmin's beard and hair were all blown up, but he didn't take Wu Sangui seriously, because he still had Chen Yuanyuan in his heart. When Zhu Yousong said this, he hated Wu Sangui and Zhu Yousong even more.

Silver teeth creaked, "Chen Fang, Li Xiao, you two lead your troops back to kill, Tian Jianxiu has already arrived at Juyongguan, just hold on and our reinforcements will arrive."

"Hou Ye, what about you?" Chen Fang and Li Xiao are the two generals under his command. Li Zicheng's army is chaotic. First there are battalions, and the number of each battalion varies. There are tens of thousands in the big ones and only a few hundred in the small ones. , the smallest officer in the army is the general, and the middle-level general is the general. Now there are Jiedu envoys, generals, etc., and a general is in charge of about 3000 people.

Liu Zongmin smiled contemptuously, "To capture the thief and capture the king, I'm going to kill Zhu Yousong. If we're lucky, we can still eat the Fulu Banquet!"

In Liu Zongmin's eyes, the army of the Ming Dynasty was just a mob. Don't be fooled by the ambush. He didn't care about being trapped and surrounded. Back then, Hong Chengchou used 10,000+ soldiers and horses to ambush them outside Tongguan city. Didn't he retreat completely?

"Your Majesty is mighty! Kill—" The two thousand generals rushed back with more than 6000 cavalry, and Liu Zongmin left a guard of more than [-] people.

At this time, the Ming army fired ten thousand arrows, and the flying arrows were like locusts, covering the sky and the sun. The cavalry of the Dashun Army were all from farmers. It is really unflattering to say that the cavalry equipment is iron cavalry, except for the personal guards of senior figures such as Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin. , Most of them are unarmored soldiers, and when they go into battle, they rely on their brave bodies to charge into battle.

For the most powerful bow and arrow attacks in the cold weapon era, apart from using knives and guns and a small amount of shields to block the arrows, they relied on their flesh and luck.

For a time, countless arrows fell from the Dashun army.Some men and horses were shot into hedgehogs on the spot, and the neighing of war horses, the sound of killing, and the screams of screams were as loud as the waves of the sea.

But the Dashun army is really not afraid of death, especially when fighting against the Ming army. Maybe they are used to fighting the Ming army, and bloodshed and casualties are commonplace for them.Braving the rain of arrows, thousands of cavalry charged forward one after another, their shouts shaking the heavens and the earth.

Seeing this, Zhu Yousong finally knew how powerful the peasant army was, and finally understood why Emperor Chongzhen's well-equipped regular army could not defeat these mud-legged and poor sticks. It was because they were all brave and fearless. If you will risk your life, you will be hard to beat, and if you risk your life, you will be invincible.I also know that when the Eight-Power Allied Forces entered China, the scene in the film and television footage of those civilians holding large knives and spears, some even stripping off their clothes to face the artillery fire, and the scene where they all fell down in a river of blood is by no means a fiction.

At this time, Liu Zongmin, with more than a thousand troops, didn't move immediately. He watched the rest of the soldiers charge into the battle without moving. The soldiers around him kept getting shot and fell off their horses. It was Zhu Yousong under Huang Luo's umbrella in the alley diagonally opposite.

Suddenly, an arrow shot the Oolong horse's neck, and Liu Zongmin's mount neighed and fell into a pool of blood. Someone brought a big green horse for Liu Zongmin. Shuang Dao broke out and shouted: "Kill——"

Liu Zongmin's knives are different. He is a blacksmith, and his forging skills are superb. This is a pair of weapons tailored by himself. This pair of knives are both single-knife, that is, only the handle and no shaft, and the blades are in the shape of willow leaves. But this knife is not small, the blade is a palm wide, the back of the knife is more than an inch thick, bright as snowflakes, the handle is pressed down, one of the two handles is embedded with the sun, and the other is embedded with the moon. Knife.

On the other hand, the weight of these two knives is not the same, the left-handed knives are slightly lighter, and the right-handed knives are slightly heavier, but each of his knives weighs more than 25 catties, which is a weight that ordinary single-handed knives cannot reach.The combination of the two knives weighs more than fifty catties, which is heavier than the long-stemmed swords used by those generals. He is so powerful and heavy that he usually kills the enemy with one move on the battlefield.

With a shout, Liu Zongmin wielded two swords in his hands, and charged at Zhu Yousong first, followed closely by more than a thousand guards under him, like a rainbow.

"Guard!" Li Quan yelled, and Liu Chunhong, Zheng Damu, Zhang Huan, Lu Xiao, Zhao Fu, Fang Dongxu and other imperial guards stood in front of Zhu Yousong, Ma Jinhua, and He Xuanjiao with swords and spears.

In fact, none of these three need their protection. As long as they are willing, they can charge into battle at any time and take the enemy's head with ease.

Zhu Yousong saw Liu Zongmin coming towards him, and the arrows shot at him fell one after another. Wherever his saber and horse passed, the soldiers of the Ming army were flying with flesh and blood, and no one could beat him. Zhu Yousong immediately ordered, "Stop shooting arrows, Everyone retreat, wait for me to capture him!"
