Chapter 41: Fu Zonglong's Last Battle

"Even if Fu Zonglong still has some combat strength, you have 20,000 people, and there is a camp to rely on, just let the enemy break the camp, it's just that, I can forgive, but after being broken the camp, you can't even control the situation, cannibalism, and it is only at dawn that the situation is stabilized, such an incompetent person, what kind of face do I have to spare my life." Li Zicheng shouted: "Drag it down and cut it." ”

Several big men around Li Zicheng immediately pulled these generals down and reported them.

Zhang Xuan suddenly felt a cold flutter on his neck. There was some sadness in his heart, he felt that he couldn't do better under the situation of the generals of the Qin army. Not to mention anything else, if Fu Zonglong was fighting his own camp, Zhang Xuan didn't think he could stick to it.

"I'm so lucky." Zhang Xuan thought like this at first, and then felt again: "Fu Zonglong's eyes are really poisonous. The flaws can be seen at a glance. And it's an irreparable flaw. ”

The surrender of troops to the righteous army is far from being able to be integrated in more than ten days, not to mention, in the past few days, Li Zicheng has urged the surrender of troops to attack the village, and under the heavy casualties, the more and more the righteous army has become renunciated, and these officers and generals may not have their own careful thoughts, this situation, for a while, Li Zicheng can not change.

After Li Zicheng disposed of these generals, he immediately arranged Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Liu Fangliang and others to lead the cavalry to pursue Fu Zonglong, and it was necessary to kill Fu Zonglong, Luo Rucai also sent Wang Long, Zhang Yingyuan led the headquarters to pursue, and the camp was meaningless here, so he immediately pulled out the camp and went north.

Although just after the heavy rain, the road was muddy, but Li Zicheng gave an order, no one dared to disobey, and Zhang Xuan walked east and west for more than half a year, transferred to the three provinces of Sichuan, Henan and Hubei, traveled thousands of miles, what kind of road has not been walked, this muddy is nothing, Zhang Xuan ordered all the soldiers to tie a handful of dry grass under their feet, so that when walking, you can be less muddy, but the army can not move without baggage, and the old camp moved over, in this case, the transfer cart, it is really a difficult journey.

Zhang Xuan had to find a way to maintain the official road so that it would be easier to walk behind.

While Zhang Xuan was struggling in the mud, Fu Zonglong also came to his last moment.

Fu Zonglong killed all the mules and horses of the whole army, let the whole army eat the last meal, lit up the last soldier who could fight only more than 6,000 people, assaulted the camp of the Qin army that he had already selected, broke it, and then led the army to advance in the direction of Xiangcheng in the dark night, because Xiangcheng is the closest city to Fu Zonglong, if there is a Xiangcheng city wall as a support, replenish the grain and grass, and then hold on to Li Zicheng for dozens of days, Fu Zonglong can also do it.

Counting this day, it happened to be the tenth day that Fu Zonglong was surrounded and burned down the shop.

"Stop, everybody fix it on the spot." Fu Zonglong's face was flushed, he was sweating profusely, and his stomach was hungry. From last night to now, all the way to the march, Fu Zonglong gritted his teeth and stiffened, and now he really can't hold on, but the reason why Fu Zonglong wants to stop is not that he can't hold on personally.

"My lord, we are only twenty miles away from Xiangcheng now, and it is not too late to grit our teeth and rest in Xiangcheng." Li Benshi said.

"Nope." Fu Zonglong said: "We can't go to Xiangcheng, the current situation, if we don't rest, only more than 100 cavalry can defeat us." And if it stops a little, I'm afraid that the cavalry will come. ”

"My lord, I'll carry you away." Yang Congyi said: "I still have the strength, I can carry you to Xiangcheng first." ”

"No need." Fu Zonglong said: "Do you think that without these thousands of soldiers, even if I go to Xiangcheng, this small city and county, can I hold on?" ”

Yang Congyi was speechless.

Indeed, there were soldiers and soldiers, plus the city walls, and food. After these conditions are met, we can talk about sticking to it, otherwise there is only a city, just relying on those township soldiers in the city, how can we stop the army that broke into the camp, and there are still fewer counties to break through during this period of time?

"The only way for us to survive is here, to fight the camp and defeat the camp. There is still life, otherwise you will die here. Fu Zonglong's eyes showed a resolute gaze.

The generals couldn't, and said in unison: "Yes." ”

Last night 6,000 people went out to burn down the shop, and now only 3,000 people remain, most of whom were not killed in battle, but fled in the night. Now people with a little sense know that Fu Zonglong's goal is too big, and following Fu Zonglong is the target of the army's pursuit, and if he escapes alone, it will be much easier.

Not everyone can die calmly.

The last 3,000 people around Fu Zonglong are the essence of the Sichuan army.

Sure enough, as Fu Zonglong expected, they had just rested for a while, and they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and there was a lot of water on the ground after the rain, so the sound of horses' hooves was not as crisp as before, but a little dull, and the sound of treading water was heard from time to time.

Fu Zonglong immediately ordered the whole army to be on alert.

First a few horses, around the officers and soldiers, and then there was a team, about half an hour later, the team arrived, and the first to arrive was none other than Fu Zonglong's old acquaintance, Li Guo.

Li Guo saw that Fu Zonglong only had 3,000 men and horses, and there was no horse team, so he immediately decided not to wait for the rear team to defeat Fu Zonglong first. He gathered the scattered horsemen around him, there were about 2,000 horses, divided into four teams, circled around the officers and soldiers, and then suddenly turned around and wanted to collide with the formation.

In an instant, the blood light cracked, and the people shouted that the horses neighed and there was a feeling that the sky was falling apart.

On the ground that had just rained, after all, it was a little muddy, and the speed of the horse's running was not too fast, and the horse's hooves stepped in the muddy water, setting off countless muddy water. It was as if people and horses were rolling in muddy water. There is not a clean place on the body.

Fu Zonglong could no longer remain indifferent, he pressed his sword in his hand. Standing in the middle of the formation and watching the battle, in fact, he knew that he couldn't do anything now, and it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. Fu Zonglong sent everyone at hand to the battlefield, and there was only one Yang Congyi left by his side. No matter how much he had thoughts, it was useless.

As soon as the battle began, Li Guo was taken aback. It's not the first time he's fought a war, and he's done a lot of things in the past, and he's done a lot of things to impact the infantry formation, almost every time he breaks through with a rush, but today he feels what it means to be resolute. What is called immovable as a mountain. No matter what it was, the short Sichuan army gritted his teeth and did not move, holding the spear at the war horse until he was killed by the horse. Reduced the horse's speed with his own body. When he was killed, he also stabbed his spear into the body of the war horse.

For a while, people turned on their backs.

Once the cavalry loses speed and mixes with the infantry, it becomes not difficult to deal with, countless spears swarm in, and a famous cavalryman falls off his horse, and the cavalry after falling off his horse does not need to ask at all, there is no physiology.

Li Guo should be glad, glad that they had all used up their bows and firearms before the decisive battle, otherwise in today's battle, Li Guo would definitely not be so easy to crash into.

"Collect the troops." Li Guo immediately ordered.

There are so many old people who broke into the camp, Li Guo didn't want to damage people to these people, in Li Guo's opinion, these people were already dead, and the only difference was who killed them. Li Guo reorganized his men and horses, and found that as soon as he made contact, two hundred cavalry were lost in the infantry formation, which made Li Guo feel slightly distressed.

Of course, the losses of the officers and soldiers will only be more than Li's, not less.

"My lord, there is horse meat to eat." Li Benshi immediately said: "Subordinate, bury the pot to cook meat for adults." ”

"What else is cooking?" Fu Zonglong said: "Divide the meat and let the soldiers eat it." As he spoke, Fu Zonglong drew his knife and took off a piece of meat from a dead horse and swallowed it hard. How did Fu Zonglong's stomach digest this raw meat, but he just swallowed it.

He knew that there was no time left to bury the pot and cook.

There was Fu Zonglong sitting on the example, and in an instant, the meat of dozens of dead horses was eaten up by the soldiers.

Li Guo looked at the formation of the official army, and also found the most important shortcoming of the official army, which was that there were no long-range weapons. The bows and ballistas were all used up, Li Guo immediately ordered all the cavalry to shoot arrows around the infantry formation, although Li Guo was the elite of the camp, but not many people were proficient in the art of horse archery, however, the officers and soldiers could not do anything against the cavalry dozens of steps away, as if it was training, for a time they shot one after another, bows and arrows, guns came over.
