The ruthless emperor in the late Ming Dynasty forced Chongzhen to abdicate at the beginning

Chapter 39 Cavalry Showdown
The outskirts of Xizhimen.

The battle is still going on, but the shouts of killing are much weaker.

The 10-strong army of Hong Niangzi took advantage of the situation to fight against Li Zicheng's [-] horses. They retreated steadily, and even began to collapse on a large scale.

But at this time, Liu Zongmin and Li Guo happened to arrive with a large army, and the battle began to reverse.

And when Liu Fangliang also led the army to kill from the north, tens of 10 people completely surrounded the Red Lady's men and horses and began to strangle them.

"Sister Hong, let's break through the siege, if the fight continues, the brothers will have to confess here today."

"Commander, keep the green hills here, don't be afraid of running out of firewood, give an order to break through!"

"Commander, if the brothers confessed here today, no one will avenge my uncle's revenge!"

At this moment, the sky is getting brighter.

The general outline of the battlefield can already be seen clearly. There are only nearly ten thousand elite veterans still struggling to support Hong Niangzi, surrounded by densely packed enemies.

If the scene hadn't been too chaotic, everyone knew that these ten thousand people had become trapped beasts, and they were all elites, so they didn't dare to charge easily, otherwise they would definitely not be able to survive until dawn.

"go!"

"Brothers, fight out with me, head west!"

Maybe it was the last sentence that irritated Hong Niangzi, and she finally calmed down. She raised her eyes and gave the order to break out of the siege with a face full of unwillingness.

"kill!"

At that time, more than 1 people, driven by the desire to survive, immediately slashed towards the west frantically.

Most of the thieves didn't know what happened after fighting in the middle of the night, so they didn't try their best. Now that Hong Niangzi was fleeing with her people, the thieves in the west were even more unwilling to work hard.

After all, the remaining 1 people are not easy to mess with at first glance.

Almost everyone has armor and has become an outlaw. If he wants to kill him head-on, he must exchange his life for his life.

So Hong Niangzi led the people and broke through easily, almost without encountering any obstacles.

However, after breaking through, there were countless people shouting and killing behind their buttocks, not to mention how ridiculous.

……

"Uncle, are you okay?"

"Brother, are you okay? How did it happen?"

"Gu's fine, it's just a small injury, he still can't die, did you kill that red lady?"

At this time, Li Zicheng's head was already wrapped in a white cloth, and with his embarrassed face and stains all over his body, he was almost unrecognizable.

"Brother, don't worry, although she escaped, there are only nearly ten thousand people left around her, and the brothers have already caught up...

Brother, I told you a long time ago that he and his wife are not trustworthy, but you just don't listen, now look?
If Li Guo and I hadn't arrived in time last night, the consequences would have been unimaginable..."

Liu Zongmin was chattering there.

Li Guo asked with a serious face, "Uncle, what's going on?"

"Why did Commander Red rebel?"

"Where's Li Junshi?"

"We'll talk about this later!"

"The ones who ran away with that girl must be her confidantes. If you don't get rid of them today, there will be endless troubles in the future. After a while, you hurry back to the camp and gather cavalry to chase after them. They must be killed!"

Li Zicheng waved his hand impatiently, then gritted his teeth and gave Li Guo instructions.

Last night, if that woman hadn't been concerned about Li Yan's safety, she hadn't acted as soon as she arrived, so that he had some time to prepare, or she might have really fallen into the hands of that woman, and now I can't wait to tear her into pieces .

"Yes!"

Although Li Guo hesitated in his heart and wanted to ask clearly, but seeing his uncle's sharp eyes, he had no choice but to answer, then got on his horse and left in a hurry.

After Li Guo left, everyone looked at the devastated camp, with corpses and limbs strewn about everywhere, and they all remained silent.

Li Zicheng's face was also gloomy and he almost dripped water.

As soon as everyone walked into the big tent that had been cleared away, they galloped forward, turned over and rushed into the big tent.

"Report, Your Majesty, there is a cavalry force in the north, and it is said that our camp is less than thirty miles away."

"what?"

Everyone was shocked.

King Chuang stood up and asked anxiously, "How many riders are there?"

"Overwhelming, no fewer than tens of thousands!" The spies replied nervously.

"Could it be the Tartars, the Tartars are really here?"

Everyone became nervous when they heard that there were no less than tens of thousands of riders.

"Going back to your Majesty, the banner you displayed seems to be the flag of the Ming army."

"Your Majesty, it should be Wu Sangui's Guan Ning cavalry, don't be careless." Niu Jinxing quickly reminded.

But where does King Chuang need his reminder?

At this moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knew better than Niu Jinxing that Thirty Miles would be reached in a short time for the cavalry.

And they fought all night, and the 10,000+ troops were not only exhausted, but also confused and confused.

"Hurry up, hurry to the South Camp and order Li Guo to immediately lead the cavalry to intercept the enemy cavalry in the north."

"Order the whole army, prepare to meet the enemy!"

A group of generals also knew that the situation was critical, so they rushed out of the big tent one after another, and each went to gather troops to fight.

For a while, the sound of drums, horns and shouts resounded throughout the camp.

At this moment, most of the 10,000+ people were sitting on the ground, some dozed off, some went after the red lady, and some were carrying corpses and cleaning the battlefield.

As the alarm of the enemy attack sounded, everyone stood up in shock.

The veterans started calling for the recruits, and the recruits looked around for their heads, which in turn looked for their generals, and the whole camp was almost a mess.

Thirty miles away, all the [-] Guanning iron cavalry had put on their armor and mounted their horses.

I saw that the originally scattered cavalry team began to become orderly with the sound of long horns, and finally turned into a huge cavalry phalanx with a width of five miles and a depth of one mile.

woo woo woo woo…

"Go on!"

Following Wu Sangui's order, the cavalry in the first row began to move forward slowly.

Then came the second row, the third row, until the whole team began to march forward.

And as the sound of the horn became faster and faster, the speed of the whole team became faster and faster, so that in the end the sound of rumbling horseshoes had overshadowed everything, and the ground trembled slightly.

Although the entire phalanx is not as neat as it was at the beginning, it still maintains clear layers and orderly intervals.

When the speed of the cavalry was fully raised, it was less than ten miles away from the Chuangjun camp in a short time.

The sound of the rumbling horseshoes could be clearly heard both in the city of Beijing and in the Chuangjun camp.

"Marshal, bandit cavalry!"

"Huh! Mantis arms block the car, overestimate one's abilities!"

Looking at the oncoming cavalry team, Wu Sangui snorted coldly with disdain.

The intruder has a cavalry force of [-] people, and he knows exactly how powerful it is. It was already expected that the opponent would send cavalry to intercept it, so there was no surprise at all.

With a clang, he drew out the half-foot-long saber, pointed forward, and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

woo woo woo...

Immediately afterwards, a more rapid horn sounded from Wu Sangui's side, and almost everyone drew their sabers at this moment.

rumbling...

The entire cavalry team has also undergone slight changes. The middle part began to speed up and protrude forward, and finally turned into a goose cone.

Although the [-] cavalrymen in the Chuangjun were also well-built, the horses were uneven and lacked systematic training. It was impossible to change formations like this while galloping at high speed, and they couldn't even maintain the formation. They just blindly urged the horses.

"kill!"

Although Li Guo was a little shocked by the strength of the opponent's cavalry, he also knew that they had no way out and had to block or even entangle the opponent, otherwise the 10,000+ army would collapse, so he also shouted loudly and drew his sword to face each other.

"kill…"

These 1 people were almost all carefully selected warriors, but they did not lack bloody courage, and they all drew their swords and shouted for courage.

If it wasn't dark last night, the cavalry could not be mobilized, Li Guo only brought infantry to help, and the 5 people in Hong Niangzi might have been wiped out long ago.

This kind of cavalry hedging is the most tragic, and almost no one will choose it unless it is a last resort.

Even the Mongol Tartars and the Eight Banners cavalry, the general tactics are based on loose shooting, and they would not choose such a rampage.

And tens of thousands of cavalry confront each other like this, which is very rare in history.

boom!
I saw the cavalry teams on both sides colliding together like two high-speed torrents.

In an instant, the person who hit him turned his back on his back, and the blood mist flew continuously.

Then the cavalry from both sides continued to stagger deeply, and more and more people fell down and were trampled by the horses, before they even had time to scream.

At this time, the fight is about equestrianism, armor and reaction, and life and death are often only in the blink of an eye.

And the two sides also decided the winner in a short time.

After Li Guo rushed out of the battle covered in blood, he reined in the horse's reins, looked around, and found that there were less than a thousand riders on his side.

But the torrent of cavalry on the other side still didn't slow down, and ran directly towards the camp, ignoring them at all.

Li Guo was terrified, his face was ashen.

In just one round, nearly [-] iron cavalry, which the rebel army was proud of, were directly crushed by the opponent, completely losing the ability to fight again.

And the loss of the opponent's cavalry will never exceed [-].

The cavalry cavalry who had escaped death, looked at the battlefield like Shura's hell, and all of them felt chills down their backs. After they gathered around Li Guo, they looked at the enemy cavalry in the distance, not knowing what to do.

Li Guo also didn't have the courage to chase after him.
