Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 437 Battle of a Stone (2)

From Juyongguan to Shanhaiguan, a journey of more than [-] miles, Liu Zongmin's [-] troops arrived in only four days.

5 horses, most of them are infantry, and even his guards are only [-] cavalry. This guard, of course, is a newly established guard. The smoke of the war dissipated, or they died in battle, or were captured by Zhu Yousong, some of them surrendered, and now they are members of the Ming army.

As the powerful general Ruhou of the Dashun regime, of course Liu Zongmin couldn't do without the bodyguard. Zhu Yousong let him go. On the day he returned to Changping Mansion, the bodyguard was established.

A piece of stone is today's Jiumenkou, located seventy miles north of Linyi County, Hebei Province. This is the boundary between Hebei Province and Liaoning Province. It is a dangerous pass on the Great Wall and is known as the first pass in the east of Beijing.

In the middle of the 17th century, in just two years, two world-shattering wars ushered in here. These two world-shattering wars have many things in common. , and the senior commanders on both sides of the battle are roughly the same, such as Wu Sangui and Liu Zongmin, all because of the same peerless beauty as the fuse.

The difference is that the First World War is well known and recorded in history.The Second World War has not yet been recorded in the annals of history, because Zhu Yousong traveled through time, and Zhu Yousong acted as the main driving force behind the scenes.The first time was the beginning of the Tatars entering the customs and establishing a regime, and this time it was the sign of the hasty end of the Qing regime in the Central Plains when the Tartars left the customs.

The two wars have many similarities and many differences, which can be called a companion chapter of the war in the late Ming Dynasty.

Liu Zongmin led an army of [-] troops and began to call for battle under Guancheng.

The cunning Wu Sangui didn't go out to fight at the beginning. Although he wished to smash Liu Zongmin's body into thousands of pieces, he hadn't been dazzled by hatred. His outstanding military skills made him take it seriously, and Liu Zongmin's reputation made him dare not underestimate the enemy. .

Wu Sangui was a martial artist in the Chongzhen period. He was born in the general family, and he has practiced with his father Wuxiang and uncle Zu Dashou for many years. He is not only strong in martial arts, but also familiar with military books and strategies. The truth of invincibility.

Liu Zongmin was yelling and cursing in the city, but Wu Sangui first pretended to be deaf and dumb and ignored him.

The one of the two warring parties to show weakness first is obviously an act of the wise. First of all, it can kill the morale of the opponent. Moreover, Liu Zongmin came from a long way.

Moreover, Wu Sangui was not only listening to the scolding in Guancheng, he sent a spy to see if there was any backing behind Liu Zongmin. Within a radius of 5 miles, there was no other army except Liu Zongmin's [-] horses. Wu Sangui Do not worry.

A mere Liu Zongmin, Wu Sangui certainly didn't pay attention to him, the strength of the two sides was equal, and Liu Zongmin was once defeated by him, and he also defeated his opponent in this place last year, so Wu Sangui is very confident.

It's not that Wu Sangui is conceited, because a piece of stone used to be his pride, turning defeat into victory, then chasing down the enemy, leaping with swords and horses, and living a happy life. Is there anything more enjoyable as a general than this?

He, Liu Zongmin, started to lose from a single stone last year, and then got out of control. He lost to Beijing and paid homage to Tongguan, Shaanxi. , with relish.

After more than a year, two people reappeared, on the same battlefield, what a drama!

At this time, the confident Wu Sangui was covered in armor, and beside him stood the concubine Chen Yuanyuan, who was like a pear blossom and carrying water. The two of them appeared on the Guancheng with their personal guards, and looked down from the crenel.

The army below is dense, the swords and guns are like ears of wheat, the swords and halberds are like hemp forests, and the overwhelming Dashun soldiers and horses can't be seen at a glance, and the flags of various colors have become an ocean.

Liu Zongmin, who was covered in armor, was holding a pair of knives in front of the battle, calling Wu Sangui a shrinking turtle, calling Wu Sangui a traitor and national traitor, and hurriedly opened the city to fight him. He wanted to avenge the original one. , He wants to attack the city with cannons, seize the pass, and leave no one behind!

The more Liu Zongmin scolded, the more frustrated he became. Seeing that the gates of the city were closed and no one paid attention to him, Liu Zongmin scolded all eight generations of Wu Sangui's ancestors.

Liu Zongmin was on the verge of scolding, when he suddenly saw Wu Sangui appearing on the top of the city wall, and there was a stunning beauty beside him, who was Chen Yuanyuan who made him miss him day and night.

Sure enough, what Zhu Yousong said was right, and Yuanyuan is indeed here!
Liu Zongmin became even more energetic, pointing at Wu Sangui's nose under the wall and scolding: "Mother, why don't you dare to fight me if you let me come? Wu Sangui, if you are a man, you will come out and fight against me. If you didn’t dare to come out, you stuck your head in your crotch and smothered yourself to death!”

"I asked you to come?" Wu Sangui was scolded inexplicably.

Then Liu Zongmin scolded him again, for his own selfishness, he was willing to give Chen Yuanyuan to Zhu Yousong, pigs and dogs were inferior, and animals were inferior.

Where is this?Wu Sangui was even more wrong, and then he understood that Liu Zongmin was tricked by Zhu Yousong, and was used as a gun!
Wu Sangui became angry, and he was also scolded by Liu Zongmin in front of Chen Yuanyuan, and more importantly, the anger of the hatred of taking his wife burned him so much that he couldn't stay in the city anymore.

He bid farewell to his concubine Chen Yuanyuan, ordered the gate to be closed and opened wide, and led [-] Qing troops to line up outside Guancheng.

Watching Wu Sangui lead his troops out of the pass, Liu Zongmin ordered his team to retreat back within a stone's throw.

Just outside the pass, the Dashun Army and the Daqing Army faced each other. The Dashun Army had 9 troops and the Qing Army had [-] troops. The two sides invested a total of [-] horses.

When Liu Zongmin and Wu Sangui met each other as enemies, they were extremely jealous, and the two war horses charged towards each other like arrows.

Liu Zongmin slashed with the machete, and Wu Sangui used the Santing machete to parry.

As soon as the two of them stretched out their hands, they were in a hurry. Both of them were knives. Liu Zongmin's sun and moon double knives now only had one right-handed knives left.

Wu Sangui said that he was using a Santing machete. The head, shaft, and handle of the knife were all three feet three inches long, and weighed at least forty to fifty catties.

Both of them have strength, and they are both in the prime of life, and they are not bad in terms of martial arts, and they are all risking their lives today.

Therefore, the two men slashed at each other, and the horses circled and killed each other. When they met their opponents, they met good talents, and it was difficult to distinguish between them for a while.

The tens of thousands of horses on both sides saw that the main general was desperate, so let's stop watching, screaming and killing each other, 9 people fought together.

At this time, there was an exciting sound of the piano on the top of the city. It was the peerless beauty Chen Yuanyuan playing the piano for them.
