[Today's second chapter is presented, in order to prevent Lao Yun from eating soil next month, I can only work hard to add more codewords, I hope the brothers will also subscribe and support! ] 】

"Kill!"

At this time, the fire in Zhuxian Town was soaring, illuminating the night sky that had not yet been fully lit up at this time.

In the west and south directions of Zhuxian Town, the shouting and killing sound shook the sky at this time, and more than 100,000 Ming troops and Chuang soldiers fought together, and the battle was tragic.

"Report, general, those thieves are crazy, the soldiers are fighting very hard, General Han died in battle, and General Lu asked for support."

At this time, Hu Dawei, two miles south of Zhuxian Town, received a report from a subordinate who ran back from the front.

Hu Dawei's face was expressionless, and then the firelight, looking at the battlefield in front of him, said in a deep voice: "It's not time yet, tell Lu Ming that even if they fight to a single soldier, they are not allowed to retreat."

Let them hold on for a stick of incense, and when it gets dark, I'll let the cavalry attack. ”

"Yes." The Ming sergeant gritted his teeth and ran back.

"How is Zuo Liangyu doing over there?"

After the soldier ran back to the battlefield, Hu Dawei was not worried about Zuo Liangyu and asked the guards behind him.

"General Hui, there are many more people on General Zuo's side than us, so it's no problem for the time being."

"Well, we can't let the thieves go this time." Hu Dawei turned his head, looked at the battlefield in front of him, and said in a deep voice.

"Ahhh

At this time, Zhuxian Town has simply become a purgatory on earth, and the raging fire has not only not weakened in the slightest, but has become even bigger because it has ignited the entire town's buildings.

Many of the soldiers who were left behind were set on fire, turned into one moving torch after another, and after struggling for a while, they turned into a charcoal.

And those soldiers who set themselves on fire even caused huge chaos to the army for a while.

Because, these soldiers who set themselves on fire were burned in severe pain by the fire, and they desperately ran around, and then the flames on their bodies were also led to the bodies of other soldiers.

As a result, Li Zicheng and his generals all ordered that if they encountered any soldiers who were burned by the fire again, they all took the initiative to shoot arrows to kill them.

This will prevent them from running around, draw the flames to the others, and at the same time give the soldiers who are burned by the fire a good relief as soon as possible.

Hu Dawei sent his ten thousand Ming soldiers to block one of the only two roads on which Zhuxian Town retreated south, determined to block the intrusive army in Zhuxian Town.

According to the current fire situation in Zhuxian Town, as long as Hu Dawei can block the soldiers inside for an hour or two, it is enough to burn most of the soldiers to death.

On the other way to retreat south to Zhuxian Town, Zuo Liangyu was in charge of guarding the town, and Zuo Liangyu's troops were much more sufficient than Hu Dawei.

Now Li Guo and Hao Shaoqi's department, more than 50,000 soldiers, are frantically attacking Zuo Liangyu's side.

And Zuo Liangyu also knew that this was an excellent opportunity to make meritorious service this time, and gave strict orders to his subordinates, not to let go of the intruding army, and even took the initiative to lead people to kill them.

On the one hand, there was a chaotic invasion army, and on the other hand, there were Ming soldiers with high morale, and the two sides started a bloody battle south of Zhuxian Town.

At this time, in the west, the two troops led by Gao Guiying and Gao Yigong were also attacked and blocked by the Ming army led by Ding Qirui.

On this day, Zhuxian Town was engulfed in fire, and the battlefields in the west and south of Zhuxian Town were also completely turned into a Shura land, and the corpses were piled up into mountains.

The two sides fought from dawn to dawn, and the intrusive army still failed to kill.

I have to say that this time the Chuang army did not give full play to their real combat power at all, and it was really the fire in the middle and the surrounding area, which made the soldiers and soldiers feel very confused.

On the side of the Ming army, this time it can be said that it has played for a long time.

On the one hand, it was Ding Qirui who promised them a rich reward after the war, plus Zuo Liangyu, Hu Dawei and other generals, who were also tempted by their military exploits and were really willing to fight.

In addition, at this time, seeing the Chuang army trapped in Zhuxian Town and surrounded by fire greatly boosted the morale of the Ming army.

Under the advantages of the other, the original combat power has long been stronger than the Ming army, and now it is besieged by the Ming army with a small number of people, and it is impossible to kill.

On the other side, at this time, a few miles east of Zhuxian Town, there was also a group of men and horses who were silently staying in a mountain col.

The centaur was resting in the col to escape the cold winter winds.

"Report!"

At this time, a scout quickly rode over, came to Li Zixiao, and reported: "General Qiyu, the army has fallen into the trap of the Ming army, and it is breaking through at this time. ”

"Well, probe." Li Zixiao stood on a hillside, looking at the red-hot sky in the west, which he had already guessed.

"Report, General Qiyu, Li Zicheng is leading people to break through, but he was blocked by the Ming army of the two roads, and he has not been able to kill it until now, there are more and more fires in the town, and the army has suffered heavy losses."

"Report, before a stick of incense, the Chuang army almost killed Hu Dawei's defense line, but in the end, Hu Dawei led the cavalry and drove the Chuang army back."

"Report, the battle situation between the Chuang army and the Ming army is ......"

Li Zixiao stayed here, and he had been keeping up with the battle situation in Zhuxian Town.

The two sides fought from the dawn to the hour, that is, around eight o'clock, when the sky was already bright.

In the fierce battle of nearly two hours, Li Zicheng's five-way army never came out, and the Ming army's preparation was still too sufficient.

At this time, the Ming army was desperately blocked by the Ming army in the front, and a raging fire burned over after it, burning tens of thousands of soldiers and soldiers.

The army seems to have fallen into a desperate situation, and it will be extremely detrimental to them if it drags on like this.

"It's been nearly two hours of fighting, Li Zicheng's five-way army, but he didn't kill all the way, it seems that the morale of the Ming army is very high this time!

I just don't know how long Ding Qirui and they can last, Li Zicheng's army should almost fight back in a desperate situation. ”

Li Zixiao was wearing a cloak, wearing a mink brocade coat, and an armor outside, looking in the direction of the west, and whispered.

At this time, standing behind him were also more than a dozen generals of the White Dragon Army, including the chief of the guard, Quartz, Luo Chao, Zhao Zilong and others.

At this time, Li Zixiao's words were heard by Luo Chao behind him, and Luo Chao couldn't help but ask: "The general seems to be not optimistic about Ding Qirui's battle from the beginning!"

But I have to say that Ding Qirui's plan for this battle is really good, and now that the thieves have indeed been tricked, maybe this battle is really possible for Ding Qirui to destroy Li Zicheng. ”

"Hehe, it's impossible." After listening to Luo Chao's words, Li Zixiao shook his head and smiled, and said.

"Why?" Luo Chao said puzzled.

Because the Ming army at this time is no longer the Ming army of the year, and the current soldiers and horses under Li Zicheng are no longer the group of peasants who just picked up swords and guns a few years ago.

Look at it, from the very beginning of this battle, I didn't think Ding Qirui could win.

But I have to admit that Ding Qirui is still very strategic, and he really deceived Li Zicheng and let Li Zicheng fall into the scheme.

However, Ding Qirui made a big mistake, that is, he had too much appetite, and he wanted to eat Li Zicheng's army in one go, which was too greedy.

With the combat strength of the Ming army at this time, even if Ding Qirui's strategy is successful, it is already very good that they can defeat Li Zicheng this time and relieve the danger of Kaifeng.

If Ding Qirui's strategy didn't succeed this time, they wouldn't even have a chance to win two percent over Li Zicheng. ”

"But now, hasn't Li Zicheng's five-way army been killed until now?" Luo Chao was still a little unconvinced.

Li Zixiao glanced back at Luo Chao and said with a smile: "Now Li Zicheng has not been able to kill it, it is because they have not completely reached a desperate situation."

Moreover, it is estimated that Li Zicheng and they have not yet integrated their panicked soldiers.

Look, after a while, when the entire Zhuxian Town is completely enveloped in fire, and they don't break through again, they can only turn into coke.

At that time, Li Zicheng estimated that he would be able to reunite the soldiers under his command who were in turmoil.

At that time, it was the beginning of Li Zicheng's real counterattack, because they had no way to retreat, leaving them to die, and it was possible to live if they were killed.

At that time, these soldiers who seem to be flustered, disheartened, and have no fighting spirit at this time can become fierce wolves who choose people to devour, and are not afraid of death.

When the time comes, let alone Hu Dawei, I dare to guarantee that Zuo Liangyu's side will definitely be the first to be the first to hold on.

With Zuo Liangyu's urine, once he sees that the situation is unfavorable to him, he will never do everything he can, and he will inevitably be the first to be defeated by the intruding army.

As long as Li Zicheng was killed out of a passage, from then on, it was the beginning of the rout of the Ming army and the transformation of the army into victory.

Of course, this is all my guess, but I firmly believe that my guess should not be wrong. ”

"I see, that's why the general sent General Han Tong with the scout camp, mainly staring at Zuo Liangyu's side, the general doesn't want to let go of Zuo Liangyu's guy, right?"

Luo Chao saw Li Zixiao's thoughts and said.

"That's right. In this battle, the victory of the Ming army is not what I want to see, but if Li Zicheng wins, it will be good for us.

Therefore, before the defeat of the Ming army, I will not order people to attack, let them have a fair fight.

But in this battle, the only thing I will meddle in is that I will not let go of Zuo Liangyu, I will kill this person. ”

Li Zixiao's eyes narrowed slightly at this time, and his tone revealed a fierce murderous intent.

In fact, since Chen Jiabao was harmed by Shen Wantao's group of Zuo Liangyu's men, Li Zixiao already wanted to kill Zuo Liangyu in his heart.

Although, at this time, the history of the Central Plains has changed greatly, and the battle of Zhuxian Town, which would only take place after more than half a year, happened in advance at this time.

Moreover, it happened when Li Zicheng opened the seal, and even the course of this battle has completely changed.

But Li Zixiao knows that history can change, but only one person's temperament will not change.

Historically, Zuo Liangyu was able to lead people to withdraw during the battle of Zhuxian Town, because of the unfavorable situation, which directly led to the fiasco of the Ming army in the battle of Zhuxian Town.

Then, Li Zixiao believes that even if the battle process changes in this life, Zuo Liangyu's practice of slipping away when he sees that the situation is not good, should not change.

And when Zuo Liangyu led people to flee, it was when Li Zixiao sent someone to kill him.
