Seeing this sudden change, the two sides who were fighting to the death were instantly frozen.

What is the origin of this cavalry?

Both sides of the war subconsciously thought that it was the arrival of reinforcements from the rogue.

Therefore, Zhu Cihong and others, who were already struggling to support, became more and more unmotivated, and everyone was terrified, a numb appearance waiting to be slaughtered.

Seeing that victory was close at hand, the general of the Liukou Department and his subordinates were very dissatisfied and resentful of this sudden arrival of ironclad elite cavalry.

Each of them decided that these birds came at this time, and they definitely wanted to compete with themselves for this piece of fat that was about to reach their mouths.

Damn, Lao Tzu has worked hard for a long time, how can there be such a reason that the fertile water flows into the fields of outsiders in vain!

The head of the rogue department with a meaty face took a step across, and the bloody waist knife in his hand pointed directly at the cavalry who rushed to the front, and scolded sharply: "Hey! Which part of you are that?! Damn, don't you see? This is Lao Tzu'......"

Before he could finish speaking, the cavalryman at the front of the wedge slammed into the horse's belly, and a lightning roar came quickly, and the sharp steel cavalry spear in his hand stabbed at a rapid speed, and the cavalry spear pierced straight into the mouth of the rogue commander as if it had eyes.

The sharp tip of the spear, which had opened deep blood grooves, with broken front tooth fragments, resurfaced from the back of the rogue general's neck, hideously seeking.

This rogue general, by the huge impact, rushed backwards and flew up, his eyes widened, and his eyes were full of incredible horror. 、

Immediately, the cavalryman shook his wrist and drew his spear, and pulled out a bloody cavalry spear from his mouth, and the rogue always fell to the ground on his back, and died in an instant.

As soon as the Lord died, the originally high-morale rogue team was suddenly in chaos and chaos.

The wedge-shaped battle formation of five hundred ironclad elite horsemen, with all their invincible power, they were like a whirlwind of clouds, extremely skillful and swift to wipe out all the chaotic rogues.

There were corpses everywhere, blood flowed all over the streets, and only a few lucky rogues were lucky enough to escape, and they were like frightened rabbits, rolling and crawling away, not knowing what to do.

The rogue collapsed, and Zhu Cihong waited for the remnants of more than ten people, all of whom were dumbfounded, and they didn't understand what was happening at this moment.

A fat eunuch rushed towards Zhu Cihong, and then knelt down: "Old slave Cao Huachun, meet the prince." ”

Zhu Cihong, who was seriously injured in the shoulder and lost too much blood, turned pale, his eyes were blank, and he looked at Cao Huachun in front of him in a daze for a while, and then asked in surprise: "Cao Huachun, didn't you go to Liaodong?" Why is it in the capital now? ”

Cao Huachun arched his hand and replied: "Prince, the old slave has already returned from Liaodong with the Tang King. It was precisely because the king of Tang rushed back in time, led by the old slave, that he saw clearly from a distance that the prince was surrounded by thieves and immediately launched an attack, so he was lucky not to let ......"

Cao Huachun's words were roundabout and praised himself, but Zhu Cihong did not listen carefully.

He raised his head in a daze, and saw the Tang King Li Xiao, who was slowly pacing his horse with a serious face, but his eyes became extremely sad in an instant.

Therefore, he saw that the gray-white face of the corpse on Li Xiao's back was not his father?

"Father! Father! ……”

The crown prince Zhu Cihong let out a wail, he rushed towards Li Xiao quickly, and the wound on his seriously injured shoulder was pulled hard, making him faint in pain all of a sudden.

At this time, another prince, Yongwang Zhu Cizhi, a ten-year-old child, stared at Li Xiao with a stern face with a vigilant and cowering look. He was inexplicably afraid of Li Xiao, and subconsciously retreated to the ground and shrank into a ball.

At this time, Li Xiao had probably learned about the battle from the surviving soldiers, his face was calm, and he let out a heavy sigh.

I'm still a step too late!

These three remaining princes, in such a sudden battle, King Ding was killed by the rogue, and now only two are still alive.

Among them, the prince Zhu Cihong, who Li Xiao was most concerned about, had his right arm cut off by a rogue, and he was already seriously injured, and now there is no medical officer to take care of him urgently, so it is really unknown whether he can survive in the end.

For a while, Li Xiao's heart was full of fatalistic desolation and helplessness.

"Pass on the king's order, take the crown prince and the Yongwang, and evacuate quickly. The rest of the people can decide where to go for themselves, and those who are willing to move from our army remember to follow the team. ”

After Li Xiao coldly gave the order, two sturdy cavalrymen jumped off their horses, and one cavalryman tied Zhu Cihong, who had passed out, tightly on his back.

Another cavalryman picked up the Yongwang Zhu Cizhi, sat him firmly in front of the saddle, and then wrapped him in armor.

Yongwang Zhu Cizhi, at this moment, behaved very well-behaved, letting the cavalry fiddle, but his eyes full of fear kept staring at Li Xiao, and no one knew what this ten-year-old child was thinking.

"King Tang, the corpses of King Nayong and Gong Fuma......" Cao Huachun looked back at the corpses in that place, and his face showed unbearable expression.

Li Xiao let out a long sigh and replied with a deep groan: "Then bring the corpse of King Yong with you." As for Gong Yuma, there are two corpses, and the head is difficult to find, and our army is short of time, so I won't bring it. ”

A cavalryman answered the order and tied the body of King Yong to his back. Li Xiao immediately ordered the whole army to turn around and go east, and leave the capital through Dongzhimen.

The group walked through the streets and alleys, hurriedly heading east, and when they were about to reach Dongzhi Gate, Li Xiao's army attracted the attention of a person.

This person is Liu Zongmin, the general of the Dashun Army and the official title of Marquis of Ru.

At this time, Liu Zongmin, who was originally on the tower of the city gate, holding a clairvoyant mirror, watched his soldiers with a proud face, pouring into the city like a monstrous flood, and then burning and looting in the city, doing all kinds of evil. Seeing that the reckless evil of that group of subordinates was like a wild beast, Liu Zongmin laughed heartily, extremely happy.

It's just that at this moment, he suddenly saw from the clairvoyant mirror that there was a cavalry team of hundreds of people in the distance, followed by dozens of ragged infantry, running out of the capital and heading towards the Dongzhi Gate where he was stationed.

Liu Zongmin suddenly frowned, and couldn't help but scold: "Into his grandmother's!" Why did these cowards turn around and run out of the city instead of robbing money and women, but why? “

When Li Xiao and his party got closer, Liu Zongmin suddenly found that these cavalrymen who were walking in front were all dressed in stainless steel armor, extremely well-equipped, and the team was very orderly. The entire team was marching silently, exuding a dignified murderous aura very naturally, and at a glance, it was known that it was an elite division that had been fighting for a long time.

It is said that such an elite cavalry naturally belongs to the old army that started from Shaanxi, and even the personal guards of the generals and princes, so that they can have such a fierce spirit. But even the personal guards of the generals and princes may not be so well equipped.

Liu Zongmin suddenly became suspicious, and kept beating drums in his heart, what is the origin of this strange and mysterious cavalry team.

Liu Zongmin was stunned for a moment, and immediately kicked down the city, and then gathered a group of soldiers and horses to slowly rush towards this cavalry of unknown origin.

When Li Xiao and the others marched, Liu Zongmin stepped forward, slashed the machete in his hand, and shouted: "Bah! What part are you waiting for?! How did you get out of the city on this storm, but why? “

Hearing Liu Zongmin's shout, Li Xiao, who led the troops forward, suddenly had a cold glint in his eyes.

Almost subconsciously, he clenched the dragon-headed sword hanging from his waist.

This golden sword handle carved dragon head sword, is the relics of Chongzhen after the death of the war, all made of pure meteorite iron, sharpened iron like mud, extremely sharp, is the treasure of the ancestral town palace of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. When Li Xiao left, in order to prevent such a precious sword from falling into the hands of the rogue, he personally took it away, and prepared to return it to the Ming court when the time came to support the crown prince.

Li Xiao knew that the enemy general on the opposite side would block the road this time, and the one who came to the other side would be unkind, and the small ones would interrogate them with their tongues, and the big ones would come forward to search, and no matter what the result was, it would be inevitable to have a battle and conflict with them.

Instead of sitting still, take the initiative!

Li Xiao immediately ordered in a low voice: "Everyone prepare, follow this king to fight out of the city!" '

There was a clanging sound, and the cavalrymen behind him, each with a gun and a knife in his hand, were ready for battle.

Seeing such an abnormal situation, Liu Zongmin's eyes widened unconsciously.

originally thought that these guys of unknown origin would dismount one after another to be interrogated under their own shouting, but they didn't expect that these silent elite cavalrymen would draw their weapons one by one and prepare for war with themselves.

For a while, Liu Zongmin felt that his head was a little confused.

What's going on?

Could it be that the corrupt Ming Court still hid such an elite cavalry in the capital?

He couldn't help but think about it, Li Xiao and the hundreds of cavalry let out a loud shout in unison, and everyone slammed the horse's belly, and rushed towards them with swords and spears.

Tang Jun's sudden attack caught Liu Zongmin off guard.

With his long-term experience in the battlefield, Liu Zongmin quickly wanted to draw his knife with his backhand, but at this moment, the leading Tang army general had already killed him.

"Enemy general! Come on! ”

Li Xiao shouted violently, and the dragon head sword in his hand slashed towards Liu Zongmin's neck!

Liu Zongmin was terrified, and his years of battlefield career made him form a strong conditioned reflex. When the sword in Li Xiao's hand, with a whistling sword light, was about to make intimate contact with his neck, he quickly dodged and leaned back, the sharp tip of the sword, rubbing the skin of his neck, cutting a straight blood mark, which made Liu Zongmin crack his teeth in pain.

Li Xiao used extremely hard force, the remaining power of the sword body was not reduced, and the sharp tip of the sword slashed at the gluttonous beast head that connected Liu Zongmin's right shoulder with two shoulder armors, and with a bang, this beast head made of fine iron was smashed.

With a bang, the two pieces of cast iron shoulder armor on Liu Zongmin's body suddenly spread out, like two rotten lotus leaves, swaying in the wind.

Seeing this big change, Liu Zongmin's soldiers and generals reacted one after another, and they hurriedly rushed forward and surrounded Liu Zongmin, separating Liu Zongmin and Li Xiao from each other.

Liu Zongmin's face turned pale, he looked at Li Xiao in front of him with a frightened expression, and hurriedly drew his sword to fight back.

The blow missed, and Li Xiao's face showed a little regret.

However, instead of attacking again, he let out a loud shout, turned around and rushed towards the city gate.

A group of cavalry immediately followed their own commander and rushed towards the city gate together.

Liu Zongmin, who was originally waiting for a big battle with Li Xiao, looked at the hundreds of Tang troops in a daze, roared towards the wide open city gate, and stared at the corpse behind Li Xiao for a moment before finally reacting.

These guys really seem to want to get out of the city!

The general with the corpse on his back must be an extremely important person!

"Stop, stop! Don't let them run! Liu Zongmin shouted hoarsely.

It's just that he just had time to shout, and the Tang army's cavalry formation was like a raging iron stream, quickly rushing away the thin row of soldiers standing at the city gate like shredded paper, and those rogue soldiers screamed miserably and were washed away.

"Quick! Pull up the drawbridge! Don't let them escape from the city! Liu Zongmin shouted at the city.

He shouted easily, but hundreds of ironclad cavalry went out of the city together, and the weight was tens or hundreds of tons, and the soldiers at the head of the city wanted to pull up the drawbridge in an instant, how easy it was to say.

Seeing these cavalry go out of the city like a storm, Liu Zongmin was extremely angry, and his teeth were gritted loudly.

However, when he saw behind him, there were more than a dozen infantry who had time to escape in the future, and his face immediately surged with murderous intent.

Liu Zongmin then drew his sword and shouted: "Everyone! Quickly follow the general to stop these infantry behind the face, and must not let them escape! '

When the rogues heard the order, they waved their swords and spears and rushed towards these infantry. These more than 20 infantrymen, who were originally composed of eunuchs and family members, quickly collapsed, most of them were killed, and several knelt on the ground and begged for surrender.

"Say! What the hell are you guys all about? ”

Liu Zongmin put the dangling waist knife on the neck of a eunuch, and asked viciously.

The eunuch's face turned pale, and he replied tremblingly: "Hey, you general, it was Tang King Li Xiao and his personal guards who just escaped!" ”

Liu Zongmin frowned, he pressed the tip of the knife towards the eunuch's neck, and the eunuch screamed, and the blood from the neck wound crawled out like a small snake.

"you! Didn't Li Xiao fight the Tartars in Liaodong? How could he sneak back to the capital quietly and quietly?! If you want to tease me, I'll immediately cut off your seven-pound head and feed it to the dogs! Liu Zongmin said viciously.

"General! General! Don't dare to lie! The eunuch was so painful and frightened that tears were about to fall, and he hurriedly said: "The king of Tang was ordered by His Majesty to return from Liaodong in a hurry, and he quietly led his guards into Beijing, intending to snatch His Majesty out of the city, but unexpectedly His Majesty had already been martyred. The king of Tang had no choice but to take his corpse and go out of the city. General, what you say below is true, and you will never dare to deceive you! ”
