Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 851: Li Zicheng vs. Dorgon (Part [-])
Zhang Xianzhong didn't expect Li Zicheng to lose the battle. They were all expeditionary troops.

But Zhang Xianzhong had always hoped that he could pull [-] infantry out of Guancheng and severely injure Dorgon's army, which also proved that his soldiers had not been trained in vain these days.Especially since His Majesty was watching the battle, if he brought an infantry army and could beat the Tartar cavalry to pieces, how majestic it would be!

For this day, how much painstaking effort and sweat Zhang Xianzhong has put in in the past year!

But now that Zhu Yousong suddenly sent him such an edict, he really felt it was inconceivable.

"Father-in-law, what exactly does Your Majesty mean?"

Zhang Xianzhong's implication is whether you, the great eunuch, have distorted the sacred meaning and spread rumors, but Zhang Xianzhong dare not say this directly.

"Hahaha, my lord, you are a smart person. Your Majesty has made it clear enough that you should stick to the city and not fight in waves." An Lin smiled until his eyes narrowed, and his voice sounded like a duck quacking.

Of course Zhang Xianzhong understood that he must stick to the pass and not fight.In other words, as long as there is no Zhu Yousong's will, he can't lead the team out of the city without authorization. Li Zicheng outside the pass was defeated at a few o'clock, and even the whole army was wiped out. He could only watch from the pass city, indifferent.

Zhang Xianzhong couldn't figure it out, and the veins on his forehead popped up.Why did His Majesty suddenly come with such a decree?That's not what I said before.If you just stick to the city, why put the battlefield outside the city?No matter how powerful Li Zicheng is, and no matter how powerful the cavalry of the expeditionary army is, can 5 people stand up to Dorgon's 30 troops?
For a moment, Zhang Xianzhong really doubted the authenticity of this will.Could it be that this eggless guy was bought by Dorgon and others?

Zhang Xianzhong still had this thought in his mind at the time, so he looked at An Lin differently.

Being a eunuch is all about observing words and demeanor, and the ability to please the master. An Lin can be mixed into this position, it can be said that his eyelashes are empty, and he can tell what Zhang Xianzhong is thinking at a glance, and his face smiles like a white bun .

"Oh, my lord, His Majesty has strategized and decided to win thousands of miles. It is not the first time. The battle of Shanhaiguan is very important. The lord just needs to follow his will. What is difficult to do? Do you have any ideas?"

How dare Zhang Xianzhong have any ideas, even if he has ideas, he dare not speak them out. In front of the will, a courtier can only obey absolutely, and never dare to harm the public or private interests. Say, that's trivial.

He had been an emperor before, so he could naturally grasp the priorities in it, especially the words of An Lin, which made him immediately dispel his doubts, and felt that His Majesty had His Majesty's reasons, and this An Lin would never dare to distort the holy will.

So Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly said respectfully: "Ah...Eunuch misunderstood, Jingxuan must follow the order."

"That's good. Our family will go back to see His Majesty return."

"Father-in-law, walk slowly."

After An Lin finished speaking, he flicked the fly brush and led the people away, Zhang Xianzhong bowed and saw them off.

A few miles away from Guancheng, Liu Wenxiu, the deputy commander of the expeditionary army's Ma Jun, and the general Ma Wannian led a fierce battle with 2 troops.

But killing 3000 enemies and self-damaging 800, their 2 horses also suffered thousands of casualties at this time.Sony observed very carefully, and it was not easy for them to win these two battles with 2 people.Especially when the 2 Mongol Tartars armored and heavy cavalry were smashed, what Sony said was true. After forming an armor-piercing battle formation, their combat power was reduced by half because they attacked the enemy in pairs. Fortunately, the Tazi's heavy cavalry only dispatched 2 horses. If they had more troops, it would be difficult for Liu Wenxiu and Ma Wannian to win. Therefore, after this battle, Liu Wenxiu's 2 horses suffered heavy casualties.

Seeing that the Qing soldiers were defeated again, Liu Wenxiu and Ma Wannian did not pursue this time. They knew that the battle just now was just a prelude.As for Dorgon's hundreds of thousands of troops, how many have been mobilized, I'm afraid it's not even a fraction, and the fight just now was horrific. Their boss Li Zicheng watched from behind and never brought anyone to support them.

The experienced Liu Wenxiu knew that the fierce battle was still to come, and the main forces of both sides had not been dispatched.Therefore, Liu Wenxiu and Ma Wannian rested their troops on the spot to facilitate another battle.

Sure enough, as Liu Wenxiu expected, according to the time of later generations, about half an hour later, a large number of Qing troops came from the mountains and forests around Huanxiling.

Thousands of horses are galloping, covering the sky and covering the earth.For the first time, 3 green battalions were dispatched, and for the second time, 2 cavalry were dispatched.Now Dorgon is charging with 8 horses. This force is the sum of the previous two times, and it will almost have to be doubled.

Both Liu Wenxiu and Ma Wannian are veterans who have experienced many battles. One can tell from this formation that the main force of the Qing army has been dispatched, covering the sky and the sun, without boundaries.

At this time, there were only more than ten thousand troops of Liu Wenxiu and Ma Wannian on the vast barren slopes and mountains, and after the two consecutive battles just now, they could already be called a tired army.

The 8 elites are compared to the 1 exhausted divisions, and the strengths and weaknesses are divided.

"Brothers in the army, the Tartars are rushing over again. Your Majesty and Lord Hou are watching. Our expeditionary army must not admit cowardice under any circumstances and kill—"

As Liu Wenxiu said, he galloped his horse and raised his saber, charging towards the rolling iron stream of the Tartars. At this moment, his tattered battle robe and blood-dripping sword seemed to be the brightest star among the stars in the sky.

"Kill!" Ma Wannian followed closely behind, holding a big knife high, with one eye wide open, sitting on his horse like flying through the clouds.

The blood of the more than 1 expeditionary troops was once again ignited by the two chief generals.The exhaustion after the battle was swept away, and the shouts were like a tide, rushing towards the Tazi's troops.

At this time, Li Zicheng could see clearly from under the pine trees in the castle.

When the words "Regent of the Qing Dynasty" embroidered on the big white satin banner in the distance came into Li Zicheng's sight, Li Zicheng felt that it was time for him to charge into the battle himself, and took the Chuangwang sword weighing dozens of catties With a single stroke in the air, a word was squeezed out between his teeth in his resolute eyes: "Kill——"

As soon as this word was uttered, the 3 expeditionary cavalry who had accumulated strength for half a day all rushed out, rushing out of the castle like a river pouring down, and charged directly at Dorgon's army.

The distance between the ancient castle and Huanxi Ridge is only a few miles away. Tens of thousands of angry horses on both sides are facing each other. Under the blue sky and on the vast green wasteland, it is undoubtedly the most magnificent scenery. Strong visual impact.

At this time, Zhu Yousong and the soldiers of the imperial camp were watching the formation on Jiaoshan Mountain several miles away from the battlefield.

The battlefield below the mountain seemed to open a gate to release the flood, and it was like an angry sea surging. Knowing that the critical moment had come, Zhu Yousong raised his binoculars again, Song Xiance, Xiao Liushi, Liu Chunhong, Gao Guiying, Huimei and other civil and military officials who accompanied , For a moment, all eyes were locked on the battlefield several miles away from the foot of the mountain.
