Aspiration

Chapter 105 Confronting Zuo Liangyu

Sad reminder.

Liu Zongmin was furious that a victory that he thought was too big had ended like this.He shouted loudly: "If the order continues, whoever fails to complete the task will not be tolerated by the military law!"

The mighty retreat was clearly seen from the city.They also knew that this was not deceit, but a real retreat, because the arrow aimed at Li Zicheng was not a stray arrow, but a purposeful sniper attack.Li Zicheng was dead or seriously injured, which could be clearly seen from the city.Therefore, Li Zicheng is a real retreat.

"Let's pursue it." Several generals suggested.

"Don't chase after poor bandits." Governor Li Fengxian said while stroking his beard and pretending to be scheming.The commander-in-chief and deputy general also knew that chasing Li Zicheng would definitely pay a huge price.Who is Li Zicheng?After fighting for more than ten years, it is impossible for him not to have follow-up plans.If you rush to attack now, you will definitely suffer.Therefore, when they heard the governor's negation, they fell silent.

In fact, Li Fengxian had his plans.Aren't there troops from various provinces outside the city?He defended the city and repelled Li Zicheng's siege. This credit is enough for him to claim credit in front of the emperor.Now, field attack, and let the others die.He thought, Sun Chuanting, you can direct your general soldiers to hack and kill, and I can just sit on the sidelines.

Li Fengxian's crime of losing Luoyang can be slightly alleviated.So, he's in a good mood.

Sun Chuanting is in the south of Zhuxian Town, ten miles away from Zuo Liangyu's tribe.

After Li Zicheng's troops withdrew for ten miles, Sun Chuanting got the news of Li Zicheng's retreat.However, the news is not comprehensive.

"Quickly find out what's going on?" Sun Chuanting was very annoyed.How much he hoped that Li Zicheng would attack Kaifeng to the death. He knew that Kaifeng would not be defeated within ten days and half a month.This is his wishful thinking.

However, now the troops are suddenly withdrawn without a trace, what's going on?
Soon, the spies reported that Li Zicheng was killed by an arrow in the siege, so he retreated.

"There was no pursuit in the city?" Sun Chuanting asked.

"No."

"His grandma, Li Fengxian, Li Fengxian, I can't spare you. Pass my order, Li Fengxian will only leave 5000 troops to defend the city, and all other troops will go out of the city to pursue. Pass, Zuo Liangyu will attack with all his strength, and must break through Zhuxian Town today; congratulations Long Department, cut off Li Zicheng's retreat to the north; all the officers and soldiers on the north bank of the Yellow River stepped up and forcibly crossed; the officers and soldiers in the east attacked in detail. Let's go, and this governor personally sits in Zuo Liangyu's department." Sun Chuanting made the decision to pursue.

When he came to Zuo Liangyu's headquarters, Zuo Liangyu was already on the front line. He had already learned about Li Zicheng's defeat, so he was desperately attacking Li Guo.

Sun Chuanting yelled in his heart: Well done, it seems that usual arrogance is not necessarily a bad thing, it is General Hao who is willing to do his best at the critical moment, Zuo Liangyu is not bad.He secretly decided that after the successful suppression of the thieves this time, he must recommend Zuo Liangyu well, at least, in terms of rewards, he will never be disadvantaged.

Sun Chuanting wanted to go to the front line to see, but he was worried about being alone.In front is Li Guo, the famous general of Li Zicheng's subordinates. Li Guo is very brave. Anyone who meets him complains of headaches, but what is even more frightening is that he also has a son, Li Laiheng.Sun Chuanting had almost died in his hands several times.Today, his father is outnumbered, so there is no reason why his son Li Laiheng should not come to help.As the saying goes, even though Zuo Liangyu had [-] elite soldiers in the battle, it was hard to say whether he could defeat Li's [-] troops. Maybe, with Li Laiheng's help, Zuo Liangyu might suffer a disadvantage.

Thinking of this, Sun Chuanting decided that it is better not to take risks, but to sit here and wait for Zuo Liangyu's good news.

It was the first time that Li Laiheng really stood on the battlefield in Zhuxian Town, beside him was his father Li Guo.

Li Guo has been fighting against Zuo Liangyu tenaciously here for three days, and his mission has been completed, but the 3000 elite soldiers are now less than [-], and how these [-] people escape is a big problem.

The battle yesterday and the day before yesterday was very fierce. He fought against Zuo Liangyu's 10 horses with 3 people, and exchanged every minute and every second with blood. 4 people, nine out of ten, the tragedy of the war can be imagined.Zuo Liangyu was also full of grief and hatred. He paid 3 people, but he didn't repel Li Guo's [-] horses.

Since yesterday, Sun Chuanting also went to the front line. It was the first time he saw such a grand and bloody massacre. There were corpses everywhere, blood flowing like rivers, and his expression was very ugly.

Seventy thousand dead bodies were piled up in a radius of several miles. It can be said that those who returned alive this time will never forget this scene in the future. This scene will always be the nightmare of everyone's life.

Li Guo has only 3000 people.Zuo Liangyu still has [-].There will be no more suspense in the battle situation.

last blow.

This is Zhuxian Town, an unexpected decisive battle, in which 7 people died at one time.

For the first time, Li Laiheng thought about what kind of place Zhuxian Town is.In the past, he had only heard of Zhu Xianzhen's reputation in textbooks, novels, and materials.

Now, he saw it with his own eyes.

Zhuxian Town is a well-known place. It is located 1140 miles south of Kaifeng in Henan Province. It is known as the four major commercial cities in China along with Foshan in Guangdong, Jingdezhen in Jiangxi, and Hankou in Hubei.According to legend, it was the hometown of Zhu Hai in the Warring States Period, and Hai lived in Xianrenzhuang, so it was named Zhuxian Town.Zhu Hai was originally a butcher, and because of his bravery, he was hired by Lord Xinling as a diner. Later, he made great contributions in the battles of retreating from Qin Dynasty, saving Zhao, and preserving Wei. The appointment of Zhu Hai is inseparable.Furthermore, the fame of Zhuxian Town is more related to Yue Fei, another national hero.In the tenth year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (AD [-]), Yue Fei commanded the Northern Dynasties, defeated the Jin soldiers in Yancheng, and achieved the famous victory in Zhuxian Town.Just when Yue Fei was about to recover Tokyo (today's Kaifeng), the traitorous emperor and Qin Hui won twelve gold medals in one day, ordering him to withdraw. Here, Yue Fei lamented: "Ten years of achievements will be ruined in one day. Soon after Yue Fei withdrew from Zhuxian Town and returned to the court, he was executed on the charge of "unnecessary".

"It would be fine if we were facing Qing soldiers." Li Laiheng thought standing on a high ground.Yue Fei once beat the elite of the Jurchen nation here.The Manchus are the descendants of the Jurchen nation, and they began to spy on the land of the Central Plains again.

How happy it would be to fight to the death with the Manchu Qing elite here.Unfortunately, the person in front is Zuo Liangyu.

"Laiheng, Zuo Liangyu is different from other generals. He is too powerful. Don't take any risks. His heavy infantry and cavalry can't kill him." Li Guo said to his son Li Laiheng.

"My son knows. I don't want the 4000 people behind me to die again."

There were 4000 people, including 800 of his own. Li Laiheng looked at Wang Si and Luo Hu, and said to them: "You two pay attention, Zhang Shiqi is here too. Today must be a difficult battle. After that, you will have no chance to fight with me, and you should lead your cavalry on the battlefield. Today, each of you will kill ten guerrilla generals for me!"

"No!" Wang Si and Luo Hu responded passionately.

"Laiheng!" Li Guo said lightly in a reproachful tone.

"It's okay! They can do it." Li Laiheng smiled.

Zuo Liangyu frowned tightly.

Originally, he was ready today, and the whole team was dispatched. He wanted to crush Li Guo into powder within an hour.However, Li Laiheng suddenly appeared.

As soon as this monster appears, some generals may die.

Two days ago, Li Laiheng fought on the side of He Renlong's and Yuan Zongdi's troops, especially when he was fighting against the pursuers from Kaifeng City. Seven partial generals were killed, and more than a dozen generals including Guerrilla and Qian Zong were killed.This made Li Fengxian very sad and scolded Sun Chuanting.He regretted attacking. It would be great if he didn't come out to pursue him. Once he came out, a lot of officers died. This crime cannot be offset by all the credit for guarding Kaifeng.

Zuo Liangyu has no way out, today is the last blow.Even if a general is killed in battle, there is nothing we can do. Who told us to recite time and meet the Li family father and son?

"Drumming! Attack!"

Zuo Liangyu ordered.He is going to use heavy cavalry first today.After heavy cavalry came heavy infantry.

Li Laiheng was prepared.His 200 riders were divided into three groups, 200 from Wang Si, 400 from Luo Hu, and [-] from himself.

Wang Si and Luo Hu suddenly rushed to the east and west, they were not going to confront each other head-on, they attacked from the side, and then flanked from the left and right, in Zuo Liangyu's central round.

Li Laiheng stood beside Li Guo, and they fought against the frontal enemy.

The charge of the heavy cavalry was too powerful, with a thunderous sound, thrilling.

However, their weakness is also obvious. They cannot stand the chaos. Once the formation is chaotic, their combat power will drop rapidly, and they will not be able to match ordinary infantry.

Li Laiheng waited for them to rush within two hundred steps.

Five hundred steps.

Three hundred steps.

Two hundred steps.

"Come on!" Li Laiheng shouted.

The horse galloped, and then four hundred hooks flew into the sky.

"Retreat!" Li Laiheng shouted.

The four hundred horses rushing forward suddenly turned around and retreated on the spot.The owners on their backs each dragged a hook line.

Zuo Liangyu's heavy cavalry collapsed.Four hundred of his heavy cavalry were dragged off their horses, and more followed.Heavy cavalry, with heavy armor all over their bodies, is bulky and slow.

Li Laiheng's people are back again.

Massacre.

Li Guo shouted: "Destroy Zuo Liangyu's heavy cavalry!"

The red-eyed soldiers rushed into the enemy line three thousand years ago.The heavy cavalry who fell to the ground became lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

A brutal killing.
