When Li Zicheng led the remaining 70,000 troops into Henan for an hour, Duoduo led more than 100,000 Qing army iron cavalry to the junction of Shaanxi and Henan.

"General, the Qing army's iron cavalry is here!" At the mountain pass, a soldier trembled and said to the general guarding the mountain pass.

The chief general who was left by Li Zicheng to guard the mountain pass here was a staff general, who heard the rumbling sound from afar, and heard the soldiers report that the Qing army was coming, not only did not have the slightest fear, but smiled happily, immediately stood up from the stone, and shouted to his five thousand soldiers.

"Soldiers, Your Majesty abandoned us here, and let me wait for 5,000 men and horses to resist more than 100,000 Qing prisoners, which is no different from sending me to death! This staff will not be convinced, and you must not be convinced! The general said, paying attention to the expressions of his soldiers.

Seeing that almost everyone was unconvinced, silent, and some people were even more afraid, the general nodded with secret satisfaction and continued: "I heard that the Manchu Qing Dynasty treats all the soldiers who surrendered, and now Your Majesty is already in the waning mountains, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is unstoppable in sweeping the world, and the regent Dolgon is even more eloquent, and he will definitely be able to lead the Manchu Qing to dominate the world in the future. ”

Although they were somewhat expected, when they heard that the general said it, everyone's eyes widened and there was a lot of discussion.

"Boom" with the Qing army iron galloping roar is getting closer and closer, the Dashun army is all pale, just now there was some hesitation of the mind immediately gone, one by one is full of fear, all the way down, everyone was scared by the Qing army, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and everyone is afraid of death, in order to live, many soldiers looked at each other a few times, for a moment, finally someone took the lead to stand up.

"I'll listen to the general, and the general will do whatever he wants!"

"Yes, yes, we listen to the general." Someone takes the lead, someone follows.

After running for more than a day, I only rested for less than two hours, even those generals with horses felt too tired to do anything, and these ordinary soldiers were eager to lie down and sleep immediately, where was the slightest war spirit and hundreds of thousands of Qing army iron horsemen to the death, none of them wanted to die, no one raised an objection to the suggestion put forward by the general, under the threat of death, everyone tacitly followed the general to surrender to the Manchus.

"Good! Since everyone is so well aware of the righteousness, then the general will lead everyone to surrender to the Manchus! This general was overjoyed when he heard this, he already had the intention of surrendering to the Manchus, and he knew that no one was not afraid of death, so he dared to stand up so openly and instigate his 5,000 soldiers to surrender to the Manchus with him, with 5,000 soldiers to follow, this general can foresee, even if the Manchu Qing does not give him credit, at least it will retain its position at the moment, and he will still be a general.

"Boom, boom"

The rumbling sound of the war horse galloping in front of him was getting closer and closer, and in a moment, the black Manchu Iron Horse appeared in front of him, covering the mountains and fields, and the momentum was terrifying!

Five thousand soldiers of the Great Shun Army gathered at this mountain pass, and one by one they did not even pick up their weapons, and the general watched the arrival of the Qing army's iron cavalry with a flattering face.

"Phew"

For this scene, many Qing generals have experience, and this is about to surrender.

"This general, I am a general of the Dashun Army, and I want to meet your Eight Banners Commander!" The general craned his neck and shouted at the front of a general with a red flag and eight banners.

The general of the Qing army sneered, beat the horse and came to a few meters in front of the general, seeing that although the general was afraid, he looked flattering, and did not have any intention of resisting, the general of the Qing army looked down and said: "As you wish, take the general to show our prince." ”

After the Qing army general finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and went back to report to Duoduo.

Duoduo smiled, although he believed that if the Qing Dynasty Iron Cavalry charged, it would be able to break through this mountain pass, but if the soldiers of the Dashun Army stationed here were willing to surrender, it would naturally be the best, so that the Qing Dynasty would not only not spend a single soldier, but also gather thousands of minions, why not.

Soon, Duoduo collected the 5,000 Shun army and broke through the mountain pass without a single soldier, and chased after Li Zicheng at great speed.

Hundreds of thousands of Qing army war horses, hundreds of thousands of knocking on the earth, the rumbling sound of the war horses galloping resounded for ten miles, and the momentum was huge!

More than 60 miles away from Nanyang, Li Zicheng led more than 70,000 remnants of soldiers to arrive here, and it will take about half a day to reach Nanyang.

Nanyang has an excellent geographical location, it is the only big city in Henan that is close to the mountains of dozens of miles in the north, Li Zicheng thinks very clearly, if after arriving in Nanyang, the Qing army is still in pursuit, besieging Nanyang, then he will give up Nanyang and retreat into the mountains, and wait for the main force of the Qing army to leave, in the mountains to recapture Nanyang, relying on this, with the Qing army hard consumption, just like the Ming Dynasty back then, but in a different place, in short, with this more than 70,000 troops in hand, in the end he will be able to make a comeback, the world is still his Li Zicheng!

"Order, speed up and rush to Nanyang, after arriving in Nanyang, everyone will rest for three days!" Li Zicheng was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to add a pair of wings and fly to Nanyang immediately.

"Boom" At this time, suddenly there was a faint rumbling sound in the rear, like the sound of the Qing army's iron horses galloping.

"Not good!" Li Zicheng suddenly changed color.

Sure enough, a scout came to Li Zicheng in horror.

"Newspaper"

"Your Majesty, the Qingyu Iron Cavalry is chasing after you, and there are still ten miles away from here!"

"What!" Li Zicheng's face darkened, gritted his teeth, and said hatefully: "Why did the Qing Lu come so quickly, could it be that Ruhou can't resist the Qing army, and the damn Huang Deliang, I just left the junction mountain pass less than two hours before the Qing Lu cavalry chased after me, it must be colluding with the Qing Lu to surrender to the enemy and betray me, and he will definitely punish him for the nine clans one day!" ”

"Your Majesty, quickly retreat to Nanyang, here is blocked by the ministers!" Li Guo was also loyal to Li Zicheng, and was not afraid of death, and wanted to personally lead the army to help Li Zicheng block the Qing army's iron cavalry, so that Li Zicheng could retreat to Nanyang safely.

Li Zicheng looked at Li Guo, seeing Li Guo's resolute face, Li Zicheng gritted his teeth, his expression was changeable, he hesitated for a few breaths, and suddenly saw the mountains in the north, Li Zicheng's eyes lit up.

After a moment, Li Zicheng said with a resolute face: "Guo'er is my righteous son, even if we die here in battle, I will never evacuate alone, needless to say, this is not far from the mountain, do not go to Nanyang, all the horses and horses will immediately go north, we will escape directly into the mountain, I don't believe that the Qingyu Iron Cavalry can chase in, one day, I will definitely make a comeback!" ”

Li Zicheng didn't love Li Guo's righteous son much, but he realized that there was no more general who could fight besides Li Guo around him, and if Li Guo was left here to resist the Qing army, Li Guo would inevitably die in battle. Li Zicheng is still a little self-aware, knowing that it will not be easy to counterattack the mountain in the future by relying on him alone, so Li Zicheng would rather take more risks to protect Li Guo.

Of course, if it really comes to that kind of desperate situation of life and death with no way out, Li Zicheng will still sacrifice Li Guo without hesitation.

Li Guo didn't know this, and he was extremely moved in his heart, and he strengthened his determination to be loyal to Li Zicheng.

Immediately, Li Zicheng led an army of more than 70,000 to the north, preparing to flee into the mountains.

This place is about seven or eight miles away from the mountain, in order to enter the mountain before the Qing cavalry catches up, Li Zicheng constantly urges the army to hurry, and he doesn't care how many people are left behind on the way, and their lives are at stake.

However, in the end, the cavalry was faster, and when Li Zicheng came to a place about two miles away from the mountain with the remnants of the army, Duoduo led more than 100,000 Qing army iron cavalry to chase after him.

"Boom"

The figure of the Qing army's iron cavalry appeared in front of him, and Li Zicheng was shocked.

"Quick, protect Your Majesty and retreat into the mountains!"

Seeing that the Qing army was close at hand, all the soldiers of the Dashun army were full of color, extremely frightened, and did not have the slightest will to fight, and ran desperately towards the mountains two miles away one by one, using their strength to feed, almost catching up with the speed of the horses.

"Kill"

Hundreds of thousands of Qing army iron horsemen stared at the soldiers of the Dashun army who fled like lambs, and one by one their murderous intentions were fully revealed, brandishing steel knives and began to slaughter.

A Qing army general was the first to rush into the crowd of the Dashun army, slashing left and right, and slaughtered more than a dozen Dashun soldiers in less than ten breaths, which was simpler than slaughtering lambs.

"Poof! Poof"

More and more cavalry of the Qing army slaughtered into the rout of the fleeing Dashun army, which was a one-sided massacre, the Qing soldiers were red-eyed, chased all over the mountains, and the land within a radius of miles was stained red with blood.

Li Zicheng's face was pale, and he fled for his life in horror, his hair crown fell off on the way, his hair was scattered, and he was extremely embarrassed, but he still rode on the horse's ass and smoked the horse's buttocks desperately, and he didn't even dare to turn back.

"Mountain!" Li Zicheng was pleasantly surprised, stared at the green mountain in front of him, and rushed in on a war horse.

Behind him, the remnants of the countless soldiers of the Dashun Army fled in embarrassment.

"Newspaper"

"Lord Qiqi, Li Zicheng has led the remnants of the army to flee into the mountains!" In front of the mountain, the Qing army's iron cavalry did not pursue it.

Duoduo looked at the countless soldiers of the Dashun Army who fled to the mountains like lost dogs, and sneered angrily and said: "Li Zicheng is really resilient, he didn't die like this!" Hmph, but it's just self-destruction! I'm not afraid of starving to death! ”

Li Zicheng's army of more than 70,000 was slaughtered by nearly 40,000 in World War I, and there were still more than 30,000 left.

Half an hour later, the scouts returned.

"Lord Qiqi, after asking the people at the foot of the mountain, this mountain is fifty miles wide and is the largest mountain in Henan." Most of Henan is plain, but the Nanyang area is close to the border of Shaanxi, and the terrain is different from other places, mainly mountainous.

"Order, immediately mobilize 100,000 Han Banner soldiers to come, and be sure to exterminate Li Zicheng!" Dodor thought for a moment and ordered.

"Wow!"

It was difficult for cavalry to enter the mountains, and Duoduo did not want to turn cavalry into infantry to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng. Of course, Duoduo didn't intend to let Li Zicheng go like this, and vowed not to give up if he didn't exterminate Li Zicheng, after all, Li Zicheng had made a comeback many times back then, and the grass must be eradicated, and Duoduo didn't want to leave any troubles.

Since he didn't plan to turn the cavalry into infantry and go into the mountains to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng, there was no need for so many horses to guard here, and only a few thousand were left to make Li Zicheng dare not come out.

"How many miles away from Nanyang is here?" Dodor asked.

"Back to the prince, ten miles to the east is Nanyang." A Qing army general replied.

"Hmm!" Dodor nodded.

"Order, 5,000 men and horses with blue flags are guarding here, and the rest of the people will take Nanyang with this king!" Duoduo's eyes flashed sharply, intending to start from Nanyang and gradually take down the entire Henan.

However, as several knights in white armor of the Eight Banners traveled south from the north to convey Dorgon's orders to Duoduo, Duoduo's plans to take all of Henan were disrupted. In the next few months, there will be an even bigger war cloud brewing in the world.
