Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 571

On the west bank of the Xinjiang River, west of Huimin Bridge, in the wilderness for more than [-] miles, a large group of remnants of the Qing army ran wildly, infantry and cavalry mixed together, wishing to have another leg, and those who threw away their helmets and armor fled eastward.

The Eight Banners man on the horse is fine, but the infantry who are close to the two old legs will die. In order to run faster in hot weather, not to mention the weapons and armor, they almost take off their clothes and run away naked. But even so, from time to time someone was shot down.

"Don't stop, run quickly, the Ming army is catching up." Bu Shancong looked at his men and felt despair. It's over.

The exhausted rout soldiers ran wildly, many of them died. Looking back, he saw Ming army cavalry chasing closely. Some rout soldiers knelt down and surrendered. , and behind the cavalry, there were countless infantry who were rushing over with a loud noise of killing. This was obviously to kill the rout.

Wang Deren is an old general of Li Zicheng, nicknamed Wang Zamao, just by looking at his nickname, he can tell that he is not a good stubble.

This time he was able to lead the Qing soldiers into the ambush circle, mostly due to his credit, but he was chased by Liu Zhiyuan for hundreds of miles all the way, and he was also very angry.

At this time, seizing the opportunity, he immediately turned over and sang, with a ferocious face, he charged in front of the army, galloping swiftly and swiftly, he must stab Liu Zhiyuan, who had been chasing him all the way, under the horse.

At this time, Wang Deren held a big gun and stabbed dozens of people to death along the way. The Qing soldiers only cared about running away and did not dare to fight.

The [-] cavalry behind them were also killing people, brandishing their war knives, harvesting human heads like watching melons and cutting vegetables. They chased the rout and fled, biting their prey like a pack of wolves hunting.

Liu Zhiyuan was wearing a pair of underpants, and was running wildly on his horse. When he looked back, he saw Wang Deren was staring at him, already behind him, pointing his spear at his back, making his face pale.

At this moment, a horn suddenly sounded from the front, and a black line slowly appeared between the sky and the earth, and reinforcements from the Qing army came.

Liu Zhiyuan saw thousands of cavalry rushing towards him from the east, and almost wept with joy. When the Ming army cavalry heard the sound of the trumpet, their horses slowed down unconsciously.

"General, the Qing dog reinforcements have arrived, let's withdraw!" Wang Deren's personal soldiers Baihu shouted and reminded.

But Wang Deren didn't slow down, he was afraid of committing a crime, he had to kill Liu Zhiyuan.

At this time, he chased straight on his horse, and the cavalry behind him had to keep up, but he stabbed the rout soldiers in front of the horse to death, and the horse flew over the corpses.

Liu Zhiyuan was rejoicing at his escape, when he suddenly felt a murderous intent coming, he turned his head and saw Wang Deren's eyes met, he was so shocked that he saw the reinforcements from the Qing army, the Ming army Dare to chase after.

At this moment, seeing Wang Deren stabbing towards him with a spear, Liu Zhiyuan couldn't escape, and suddenly he became angry, showing the ferocity of an old man's thief. He tilted his body, hooked his feet on the stirrup, and fell towards the horse. Sideways, the long spear pierced the air, he clamped his legs, stopped at the waist and sat up again, then slammed the knife across, and went straight to Wang Deren's waist.

"Well done!" Wang Deren yelled, raised his gun vertically to block the attack, then swung the big gun around, drew aside the saber, and shot horizontally with the gun.

Liu Zhiyuan could only lean back, and the big gun brushed against the tip of his nose, which made him break out in a cold sweat. He quickly grabbed the gun barrel with his left hand, dragged forward desperately, and the saber in his right stabbed straight at him, but how could he do it with one hand? Wang Deren holding guns in both hands.

When he pulled it, it was like an ant shaking a tree, and it didn't move at all. At this moment, Wang Deren pulled back, and he didn't have time to let go, and the force of the bayonet didn't retract. Instead, the pulled body tilted, and his buttocks left the saddle.

This made him turn pale with fright, and quickly relied on his superb horsemanship to try to sit back, but at this moment the big gun appeared again and slapped him hard on the shoulder, causing him to lose his balance and fall off the horse.

Liu Zhiyuan fell heavily to the ground, and he heard a war horse neighing, his pupils dilated suddenly, his face was full of panic, and saw Wang Deren suddenly reined in the reins, the war horse hoisted high amidst the neighing, and then suddenly fell down, directly stepping on his abdomen, causing He immediately contorted his face, and before he wailed, he vomited blood and fainted.

But Wang Deren pulled up the reins again, his legs clamped tightly on the horse's belly, and amidst the neighing sound, the war horse raised its two front hooves, and then smashed them down heavily, the horse's shoe stepped on Liu Zhiyuan's chest, with a few crisp cracking sounds, his ribs broke, and his chest cavity deformed , the dead can no longer die.

"General!" Baihu, a member of the army, finally caught up with Wang Deren, and he shouted anxiously, pointing to the east with one hand.

Wang Deren looked up, and in the wilderness to the east, there was a dense mass of cavalry in red armor. The banner with a red background, a yellow dragon and a white border was flying in the wind, and nearly ten thousand cavalry came galloping.

"Inlaid with the red flag!" Wang Deren's expression changed, he pulled the reins, and shouted loudly: "Let's retreat!"

The personal guard Baihu immediately took down the horn, and was chasing the enemy cavalry, when he heard the loud sound of the horn echoing on the plain, he immediately gave up the pursuit, turned their horses around, and retreated to the west in an instant.

In the distance, Man Dahai put down the binoculars, and the scene of Wang Deren trampling Liu Zhiyuan to death with a war horse just now was in his eyes, which made him extremely angry.

The Ming army in front of me is really rampant, yes, it is rampant. Man Dahai has led the army for many years, followed Taizong and Dorgon to fight and kill, and met countless enemy soldiers. He has never seen such a wave.

The master of the Eight Banners, who has heard all over the world, has come, and there are only five hundred cavalry, so he has to give a response anyway, and escape in coordination with the wasteland.

Seeing the Eight Banners athletes coming, it's fine if they don't run, but they dare to chase after him, trample his general to death with a horse in front of him, this is not taking him seriously.

Man Dahai's face was livid, and he quickly ordered to pursue him.

Uncle Baqi felt too humiliated if he didn't run away immediately after seeing Baqi. Naturally, he would not let Wang Deren go. They ignored the rout soldiers who were rushing to them, and went around them and chased after them.

In Wannian County, southeast of Yugan County, Jin Shengheng, with 3 horses, retreated to Guangxin Mansion after showing weakness in Fuliang and Jingdezhen.

Thanks to Wang Yan's emphasis on intelligence, Tiandihui's secret operations spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, and it also developed in Jiangxi. These people compiled a huge intelligence network.

As soon as the Qing army decided to attack Chu and Jiangxi, the Ming army in Jiangxi knew the number of troops entering Jiangxi, the list of generals, the composition of the troops, and the marching route.

Now the Qing army is marching in the hinterland of Jiangxi. The secret agents, spies, and the people who stayed in the countryside are the eyes of the Ming army. Jin Shengheng understands all of Man Dahai's actions.

With the movement of the Qing soldiers, Jin Shengheng's 3 horses also secretly entered Wannian County of Raozhou Prefecture.

What he has to do now is to wait for the main force of the Qing army to enter the pre-set ambush circle, follow up from behind, and attack the Qing army with Sun Shoufa and Wang Deren in the front.

It has been a day since Wanji sent the military order, but he still has not received the news, which made Jin Shengheng a little worried. Could it be that Man Dahai dared not move because the forward was ambushed?Or have you seen through the Ming army's intentions?
"Duzhen!" At this time, there was no one outside the hall, and a hurried shout came in first.

Hearing the sound, Jin Shengheng immediately stood up and rushed out to meet him. He saw a general hurrying into the hall, he immediately grabbed him and asked, "Yipeng, what's the matter?"

Xu Qiren didn't care to take a breath, and replied loudly: "Duzhen, just after receiving the news, Mandahai moved, 4 horses, cavalry in front, infantry in the rear, marching westward to help."
