Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 151 The blood is boiling
It's night, the moon is in the middle of the sky, insects and birds are singing, the mountain breeze is gentle, and the heat of the day is scattered for most of the time.

Li Dingguo looked at the barracks, and looked at the trees all around it that had been cut down, he couldn't help sighing: "Even if it is a fire attack, there is no flaw, that's all!"

As he said that, he slapped the horse and returned, splashing a lot of dust.

In the barracks, Zhu Yixi took all the generals, climbed up the arrow tower without haste, stared at the Western Army back, and couldn't help saying:
"The cavalry of the western thief is so fine, it fits into one body, separates but never separates, and can be manipulated freely."

"I wanted to send cavalry to chase after him, but I was afraid of being defeated by them. Tonight, I can only do so."

Li Jingwu was so ashamed by these words, he raised his head and said: "Your Highness, the formation of the cavalry battalion is still too short, given time, the entire army will definitely be wiped out."

"Your Highness, if you are in Shaanxi Province, or the Central Plains, the cavalry is unrestricted, but in Sichuan Province, the cavalry cannot be used."

"The cavalry battalion will be no worse than this cavalry after training for a while."

Bai Wang couldn't help explaining that Li Jingwu gave him a grateful look.

Zhu Yixi was noncommittal, he was really jealous of this group of cavalry.

Thieves still contribute a little bit, at least they can increase my cavalry.

At this time, Prime Minister Hui Deng took a fan and kept fanning His Highness the King of Hanyang, grinning and saying:
"This time entering Sichuan, there is still a strange thing!"

"How do you say it?" Liu Tingjie's eyes were hot. How could I not have thought of such a good thing of flattering? No wonder Mr. Whedon's fan is always in his hand, and he had laid an ambush long ago.

"Most of the western thieves are from Shaanxi, and we are also from Shaanxi. The king is from Xi'an, but we from Shaanxi are fighting in Sichuan Province. Isn't it interesting?"

After saying this, Zhu Yixi became interested.

This time, Li Jingwu, Liu Tingjie, Yan Guochao, Hui Dengxiang, Wang Guangen, Zhao Guangyuan and Bai Wang were all from Shaanxi.

Although the western thief on the opposite side has undergone a lot of expansion, the top layer is also from Shaanxi.

Zhu Yixi said silently: At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was the home court of the Shaanxi people, and both the official and the villain were them.

But for him, it is also convenient to recruit and surrender. They are all fellow villagers, so there is no discrimination.

"Ming Whistle and Dark Whistle are ready again, let's rest, tomorrow will be a big battle."

Zhu Yixi yawned, waved his hands and left.

The generals also went back to rest immediately.

The next day, Li Dingguo cheered up and commanded the whole army to fight a frontal defeat.

The reason why he didn't defend the city was that apart from being unpopular and difficult to defend, the main reason was that the Western Army was not good at defending the city.

Taking advantage of one's own weaknesses to meet the strengths of the enemy is what fools do.

Since you can't defend well, let's fight in the field!
Offense instead of defense——

Like the Chuang Army, the Western Army is also a rogue. It has never built a territory, and it doesn't care about abandoning the city, as long as there are people.

Therefore, Li Zicheng did not hesitate to abandon the city of Beijing without any hesitation, even though the capital city was originally set up as a castle.

Similarly, in order to enter Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong easily abandoned the Hunan area that he could conquer, and did not even send troops to garrison it.

Replacing defense with offense is the manifestation of the idea of ​​rogue bandits that has not been eradicated.

That's why Zhu Yixi didn't bring a cannon in red, because he knew that siege battles were rare and mainly field battles.

It's better to leave the red cannon to Nanyang.

At this time, on the battlefield, Li Dingguo led [-] troops, with cavalry as the vanguard and infantry as the rear, forming a cone-shaped structure, hoping to penetrate the army like a sharp thorn cone.

Thanks to his previous experience, Zhu Yixi deeply understood that if the cavalry lost their energy, they would be sentenced to death.

Therefore, this time, the heavy infantry is in the front again, and the Chinese army is the firearms battalion.

The left wing is Sanbianying and Mingjieying, and the right wing is Minghuiying and Mingyuanying.

The finale is the Guards Battalion, Mingwang Battalion, Mingguang Battalion, and Cavalry Battalion.

Zhu Yixi sits in the central army, commands calmly, and is protected by a firearms battalion. He has no fear.

"Sure enough, the Western Army is useless except cavalry."

Looking up, although the infantry of the Western Army is neat and not so messy, there are very few armored ones in their clothes.

The old military robes are still in the style of officers and soldiers, the only difference is probably the bright triangle scarf.

"sorrow!"

Zhu Yixi shook his head and said: "Although it is said that the Shaanxi people fought each other, it should be more of a civil war between the Ming army."

The fleeing frontier army and the captured officers formed the main body of the Western Army.

This is also the reason why after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Chuang army and the Western army surrendered to the Southern Ming on a large scale and fought against the Qing army without any grievances.

Originally, he was an officer and soldier, so there was nothing wrong with changing his skin and paying his salary.

Three meals a day, one meat for three days, and daily practice gave Qin Jun a different temperament as a whole.

High spirits and high morale.

If you win a field, you can heal your injuries, and if you are disabled, you will be an official, and you will be rewarded with more fields.

Facing the Western Army, the soldiers stared at each other without any fear.

And at this moment, Zhu Yixi decided to add another fire:
"After this victory, everyone will be rewarded with three points of merit."

"Woohoo, long live, long live the king—"

Cheers were heard endlessly, and morale skyrocketed again.

In the eyes of the soldiers, the Western Army in front of them is no longer a human being, but merit points.

land, silver.

At this moment, Chen Tieniu's eyes were red, as if he could shoot arrows at any time, killing all these thieves.

He made a calculation in his mind.

If he wins this battle again, he will get another six acres of land.

Adding the previous twelve acres, that's eighteen acres.

This is enough to supply a scholar in the south.

Thinking of his son's success in the Juren and Jinshi exams in the future, he couldn't help his blood boil, and he swung his big knife to kill the thief in front of him.

Even if he looked from a distance, there were several familiar faces inside.

"Attack—"

His Royal Highness the King of Hanyang, who loves soldiers like a child, naturally couldn't bear to reject the eagerness of the soldiers, so he issued a military order decisively.

In an instant, the soldiers of the Qin Army, like tigers descending the mountain, rushed forward screaming.

Li Dingguo was startled: "When did the Ming army die so thirsty? I am a cavalry soldier!"

Li Dingguo was stunned for a while, and immediately led the cavalry to kill him.

The previous temptation made him understand that there was no hope for the infantry.

For the current plan, only cavalry can be used to fight a bloody road.

Just now at the tower, he already understood that the front army was all wearing heavy armor, and it must not be used as a breakthrough.

The left wing has strong soldiers and horses, and the right wing is a little weaker, but it is a good opportunity.

"If this battle is won, each person will receive one hundred taels."

"follow me--"

Putting on his battle armor, Li Dingguo is majestic and majestic. He seems to have a different temperament all over his body, making people unconsciously obey his orders.

Half of the four thousand cavalry behind them were covered in leather armor, all of them were silent, their eyes bursting with extreme desire.

This is the biggest reward in the past few years.

Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, under such a temptation, they dare to go all out and follow this man to fight.
