603 Battle of Zhu Xianzhen (10)

[Today's second update is presented, please subscribe to support!] 】

"Report, General Qiqi, General Han sent his subordinates to report that they had discovered Zuo Liangyu's traces, and they were leading about six thousand cavalry towards us, and they arrived almost after a stick of incense."

Soon, another White Dragon Army scout came on horseback to report, and it was they who found Zuo Liangyu's traces.

"Zuo Liangyu is running away from us? He really has a way to go to heaven, and no way to go to hell! ”

After Zhao Zilong heard the scout's words, he said in a cold voice with murderous intent on his face.

"It is estimated that the general calculated it early in the morning, and Zuo Liangyu's guy would take this road to escape, so he took us here to wait."

Luo Chao next to him said with a smile at this time.

"How can I be so godly, I really think I can pinch and calculate! However, as long as you analyze it simply, you can guess that if Zuo Liangyu wants to escape, he can only go south.

Whether they go back to his hometown Xuzhou, Ruyang, or Huguang Xiangyang, they can only go south, and there is no place for Zuo Liangyu to the north.

To the south is the Shahe River, and Zuo Liangyu can only go to the southeast first, which is where we are now.

In this direction, there is only a relatively wide official road, which is most suitable for cavalry to run, and there is no army on this side, you say, if you are Zuo Liangyu, where will you go if you don't go here. ”

Li Zixiao smiled slightly and explained to everyone.

"I see, the general is already anticipating the enemy's opportunity." Luo Chao still said with a smile.

"Okay, Luo Chao, when will you also learn to pat on the back, Zuo Liangyu is about to arrive, and there are still a lot of cavalrymen with him around him this time.

It is estimated that they are all his henchmen, so don't be careless.

You and Zilong are going to sort out the people, and when Zuo Liangyu comes, I have only one request for your two battalions, that is, to cut off Zuo Liangyu's dog head for Lao Tzu.

It can be regarded as avenging hundreds of innocent people in Chenjiabao. ”

Li Zixiao said to Luo Chao and Zhao Zilong.

"Yes, my subordinates will go down and arrange it." Then the two answered, and left together.

After the incident with Shen Wantao last time, Li Zixiao had already had murderous intent towards Zuo Liangyu in his heart, and the fewer such scum, the better.

Thundered!

Sure enough, in less than half a burnt of incense, a large number of cavalry arrived in the area where the 30,000 White Dragon Army rested.

Then, Luo Chao and Zhao Zilong, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, immediately led their respective Flying Eagle Battalion and Flying Dragon Battalion to kill Zuo Liangyu from both sides.

The two battalions of more than 6,000 White Dragon Army cavalry, like a pair of open pincers, directly clamped Zuo Liangyu's 6,000 cavalry.

At the same time, Han Tong, who had been following Zuo Liangyu, also led hundreds of scout battalion soldiers to Zuo Liangyu from behind.

The unsuspecting 6,000 cavalry of Zuo Liangyu were blinded in an instant, and the formation was directly rushed by Luo Chao and Zhao Zilong's cavalry battalion in a short period of time.

"Damn, this is Li Zixiao's cavalry, how can there be so many cavalry under him, he has always been hiding around here."

After Zuo Liangyu saw the armor and banners of the White Dragon Army's cavalry, he immediately recognized the origin of the White Dragon Army, and said through gritted teeth.

"Come on, kill me with me."

It's just that since Zuo Liangyu knew that the person who ambushed him this time was Li Zixiao, he didn't dare to stay, but he knew that Li Zixiao was full of murderous intent towards him.

Just like he is also full of murderous intent towards Li Zixiao, he knows that once he falls into Li Zixiao's hands, the end may not be good.

So, Zuo Liangyu summoned all the cronies around him, asked them to protect him, and broke through to the south to kill.

It's a pity that if you want to escape surrounded by six or seven thousand White Dragon Army cavalry, it is simply a fool's dream, and Zhao Zilong has been staring at him.

"Team, follow me."

When Zhao Zilong saw that Zuo Liangyu took a few hundred cronies, broke away from their large army, directly gave up the battle, and fled to the south, he immediately led a team of men and horses to chase down.

After Zuo Liangyu led more than 200 cronies to escape, there were more than 4,000 cavalry still on the battlefield, and they simply gave up the battle and chose to surrender to the White Dragon Army.

Anyway, the situation on the battlefield at this time was already one-sided to the side of the White Dragon Army, and Zuo Liangyu had more than 6,000 people under his command, and there were still about 4,000 people left at this time.

Even these 4,000 or so people have been scattered by the two cavalry battalions of the White Dragon Army, divided into more than a dozen places, and they can only fight separately and support themselves.

In this battle, Li Zixiao did not use any soldiers of the White Dragon Army except for Zhao Zilong and Luo Chao, as well as Han Tong's cavalry.

Even the artillery was useless, and Li Zixiao was worried that firing artillery here would attract the attention of Li Zicheng's army in the west at this time.

Half a day later, Zhao Zilong carried a head that was still dripping blood, rode to Li Zixiao, and reported to Li Zixiao: "General, Zuo Liangyu, the head of the dog thief, was brought to you by his subordinates." ”

"Hmm!"

Li Zixiao glanced at it, the bloody human head that Zhao Zilong was carrying in his hand was indeed Zuo Liangyu's, he felt a little disgusted, and nodded in response.

"Take his head back, find an opportunity to send it to Chenjiabao, and hand it over to those widows, who believe that the people who survived Chenjiabao want to see the head of this dog thief."

"Yes."

After Zhao Zilong heard Li Zixiao's words, he ordered someone to put Zuo Liangyu's head away and find time to send it to Chenjiabao.

At this time, with the sunset of this day, the sky was dark, and the fire in Zhuxian Town had been completely extinguished and completely turned into ruins.

Since the defeat of the Ming army in the afternoon, Li Zicheng led the Chuang army to pursue the Ming army all the way, chasing in the direction of Kaifeng in the north.

Originally, Li Zicheng and they actually fought very hard, not to mention the heavy casualties among the soldiers of the breaking army, and they also lost all the grain and grass.

Fortunately, at this critical moment, more than 50,000 soldiers led by Niu Jinxing arrived from Wei's to bring much-needed food to Li Zicheng and them.

It was only on the second day that Li Zixiao led the White Dragon Army to several battlefields where the Chuang Army and the Ming Army fought wildly yesterday.

Although Li Zixiao and none of them witnessed the battle with their own eyes, they were standing on a battlefield full of corpses at this time.

Looking at the mountains around him, within a radius of several miles, there were corpses all over the place, and in the most places, the corpses were piled up on top of each other, the tallest of thighs.

This land, the land stained red with blood, can imagine how tragic yesterday's battle was.

Li Zicheng didn't leave too many people behind, and to deal with these corpses, Li Zicheng was in a hurry, chasing the remnants of Ding Qirui's Ming army and killing in Kaifeng City.

Li Zicheng only left a team of more than 1,000 soldiers to clean up the battlefield here, slowly dispose of the corpses, and more importantly, collect battle armor.

In fact, when Li Zicheng and the others won this battle yesterday, they had already roughly snatched away the armor of most of the Ming soldiers on the battlefield.

After all, most of the homeless armies under Li Zicheng were unarmoured.

They can freely go on the battlefield to find the corpse of a Ming soldier, rip off their armor, put it on themselves, and pick up their better weapons.

Even, many soldiers went directly to pick up the armor of their compatriots who died in battle.

Therefore, after this battle, the tens of thousands of horses under Li Zicheng, whether they were elite or co-operative troops, basically achieved that everyone had armor and weapons.

Therefore, in the end, Li Zicheng only left a small group of men and horses, responsible for disposing of the corpses here, collecting the armor and weapons that were missing on the battlefield, and later sparing.

And these soldiers left by Li Zicheng were all controlled by Zhao Zilong's Flying Dragon Battalion cavalry in the first time of the arrival of the White Dragon Army.

At this time, Qi Wei was also escorting Ding Qirui all the way to Kaifeng, perhaps Qi Wei's Flying Feather Battalion would become the first White Dragon Army to enter Kaifeng City.

"General, this battle is too miserable, just looking at this battlefield, so many corpses, there must be tens of thousands of people!"

If you don't come to such a tragic battlefield, you really can't experience such a shock, at this time, Luo Chao stood next to Li Zixiao and said shockingly.

"yes, it's miserable."

"General, General Hu Dawei's body has been found, do you want to carry it over, it's just that General Hu Dawei's body is a little ......"

At this time, Zhao Zilong came over and said to Li Zixiao.

"Yes, no need, collect the corpse and send it to Kaifeng City for burial." Li Zixiao shook his head and said.

Before Zhao Zilong's words were finished, Li Zixiao understood what he meant, in this case, Hu Dawei's corpse is estimated to have been 'played' by those sergeants.

Even, if it weren't for Zhao Zilong and the soldiers they captured, it would have been completely impossible for them to recognize Hu Dawei's corpse on the battlefield.

In Li Zixiao's heart, he actually admires Hu Dawei.

In yesterday's battle, the more than 20,000 soldiers led by Hu Dawei may be the only one in the more than 100,000 Ming army in this battle that did not flee.

Just for this alone, Li Zixiao admires him.

"Han Tong, you take the scout camp to the surrounding villages, gather a group of people to come over, and let them clean up the battlefield corpses here.

Remember to give one or two pieces of silver to each of the people who are willing to come, and if you don't give money in this winter, everyone will be willing to come. ”

Li Zixiao commanded Han Tong.

Soon, Li Zixiao led the 30,000 troops of the White Dragon Army and continued to march westward, not far from each other, which was the battlefield on Zuo Liangyu's side, and the two battlefields were almost connected together.

There are only a few miles in the middle, and there are not too many corpses.

After walking more than ten miles to the northwest, Zhao Zilong and the corpses in front of them increased again, and they came to a battlefield.

It was yesterday that Ding Qirui, Yang Wenyue and Gao Guiying, Gao Yigong, and the battlefield of the two people.

On the battlefield here, there were more corpses, even more than the two battlefields of Hu Dawei and Zuo Liangyu in front.

That's because there are tens of thousands of corpses of ordinary people on this battlefield, including the corpses of women and children, children and the elderly.

These people were the people in Zhuxian Town before, and Ding Qirui sacrificed the entire Zhuxian Town in order to implement his plan, and even detained nearly 10,000 people in Zhuxian Town.

Originally, according to Ding Qirui's idea, as long as they won this battle, they could completely help these people and rebuild Zhuxian Town.

In exchange for exterminating Li Zicheng's thief army, it is a big profit to exchange for just a Zhuxian town.

However, Ding Qirui did not expect that they would be reversed by the invasion army in this battle.

When Hao Shaoqi led more than 10,000 troops to them and attacked Ding Qirui's men and horses from the flank, the Ming army was defeated.

And with the defeat of the Ming army, Ding Qirui didn't have the heart to care anymore, and he was detained in the army, the nearly 10,000 people of Zhuxian Town!

As a result, those soldiers who have already killed the crazy soldiers will not care, and it is the Ming army or ordinary people who stand in front of them.

At that time, the soldiers will kill all the living people who stand before them.

As a result, these nearly 10,000 people in Zhuxian Town were ruthlessly killed by the crazy soldiers and soldiers, and there was no survivor, which can be described as extremely miserable.

"Ding Qirui's hatefulness is even worse than Zuo Liangyu."

At this moment, when Li Zixiao saw the corpses of women, children, children, and even babies, a cloud of anger appeared in his heart and said coldly.

Maybe all this is not what Ding Qirui wants to see, but it is undeniable that he is the initiator of all this.

These nearly 10,000 people in Zhuxian Town can be said to have died because of him, and they died so miserably and innocently.

"This is a troubled time, human life is as cheap as a dog in troubled times, general, when can we do a big job, let's end this evil troubled world as soon as possible!"

On the side, Luo Chao stared at a baby in front of him, who was still in swaddling clothes, the baby was held by a middle-aged woman, and the swaddling clothes were stained with blood.

"It won't be long." Li Zixiao said coldly.

At this time, Luo Chao suddenly jumped off the war horse and rushed to the woman's corpse with an arrow step, and took out the baby in her arms.

"Ahhh

Suddenly, being hugged by Luo Chao like this, the baby actually cried.

It turned out that the baby was not dead.

Luo Chao was also a few meters away, and suddenly saw the blood-stained swaddling clothes move, and rushed down.

"General, this kid isn't dead yet."

Luo Chao held the baby high and shouted at Li Zixiao.

The swaddling clothes were stained with the blood of the baby's mother, who used her body to protect her child.

The baby's crying was like a beautiful musical note, blowing away the breath of death on this battlefield, making Li Zixiao and the others feel a little relieved.

At this moment, in the eastern sky, a round of morning sun is slowly rising, and the bright sunlight is also sprinkled on this battlefield, dispelling the last gloom here.

"Every troubled era is a transition period for China to become strong again, and I only hope that I can make this transition period shorter."

Li Zixiao looked at the battlefield that was illuminated by the bright sun at this time, and behind this tragedy, Li Zixiao also saw hope.

"General, it's a girl."

At this time, Luo Chao had already remounted the war horse with the baby in his arms, and said to Li Zixiao.

Li Zixiao could see that Luo Chao liked this baby girl very much, so he said with a smile: "Yes, this child has no parents now, why don't you accept her as a righteous daughter." ”

"I think so too, general, you can rob me, I can't rob you." Luo Chao hugged the baby girl and said.

"Haha, I won't rob you."

"In other words, my third lady is also more than three months pregnant.

If she can give birth to a baby boy this time, when your girl grows up, she can give my unborn son as a wife! ”

Li Zixiao listened to the loud crying of the baby girl at this time, and for some reason, he was not sure of the irritability at all, but felt that it was the most beautiful note of life.

Therefore, at this time, Li Zixiao couldn't help but say such an idea on a whim.

"General, is this true? No, the general has always been true to his word, and what he said will definitely not be taken back.

When the time comes, I don't expect my righteous daughter to be the main room of the general's son, and I can give him a place in the side room, so I, Luo Chao, will thank the general on her behalf first. ”

Luo Chao next to him was stunned at first after listening to Li Zixiao's words, but after a while, he came to his senses and quickly blocked Li Zixiao's way of repentance.

Such a good thing, how could Luo Chao let it go.

You must know that if Li Zixiao can really win the ninety-five position in the next few years, then his second son in the future, even if he is not the prince, will at least be crowned king.

This means that this baby girl may be a princess in the future because of Li Zixiao's words.

Luo Chao didn't dare to count on it, Li Zixiao promised his eldest son Li Jie at this time, after all, as the eldest son of Li Jie, the future marriage is too important.

It's not even Li Zixiao who can decide in one sentence.

Even, Luo Chao didn't expect his righteous daughter to be the wife of Li Zixiao's unborn second son, and it was already very good to have a side room.

After all, this girl is Luo Chao's righteous daughter after all, and her status is limited, if she is Luo Chao's biological daughter, she may be qualified to marry Li Zixiao's son.

But what Li Zixiao and Luo Chao didn't know was that it was Li Zixiao's whim at this time that a famous princess would appear in the future.
