Chapter 132: Waiting for an Opportunity to Fight
"What's the use of this cannon, when the time comes, we will have to send reinforcements from our army to fight it!" Jin Shenghuan scolded. Qi Xian and Liu Zeqing don't take it seriously.
But on the battlefield, the situation quickly changed.
Pan Yong shouted in a muffled voice: "Don't chase it, retreat first!" ”
The soldiers were at a loss, but they still heard the order and stopped pursuing.
So, Jin Shenghuan looked at Pan Yong's subordinates who withdrew like flowing water in amazement, and said in amazement: "What evil is this? ”
After a hundred breaths, on the battlefield in the east, Li Guogui led his troops to turn from offensive to defensive.
The sound of horses' hooves of more than 2,000 cavalry marching on the ground sounded, making Jin Shenghuan suffocated: "Who is this?" ”
Did the artillery fire repel the enemy, or did the reinforcements scare the enemy away?
In any case, the Red Lady's soldiers are retreating. Similarly, the reinforcements that Jin Shenghuan had hoped for also arrived. Especially when he saw that the reinforcements were the two thousand cavalry of Zuo Mengeng's department, which was the most capable in Zuo Liangyu's hands, Jin Shenghuan was even more overjoyed: "It's the eldest prince who is here!" Two thousand fine horsemen, the thieves are finished! ”
Zuo Mengeng is indeed not a second-generation coward, and his use of cavalry is quite unique.
Two thousand cavalry galloped in, first wandering and scattering, relying on the advantage of the cavalry's flexibility and speed, not letting the red lady's foot soldiers keep up.
When the weakest Zhao Mazhuo began to show signs that he could not maintain the military formation and gradually lost his strength, an elite cavalry charged and killed.
These cavalry were really brave and able to fight, and when they rushed violently, they immediately tore open a big hole. Subsequently, hundreds of cavalry continued to pour up, and they were ready to defeat Zhao Mazhuan's entire army in an instant.
Fortunately, Pan Yong reacted quickly. Immediately followed. Li Guogui also got the military order of the Red Lady in time to keep up with the rush of Zuo Mengeng.
In addition, the red lady began to lead more than 1,000 cavalry and the Feng army to slowly press up. This stabilized the situation.
Rao is like this, the addition of two thousand elite cavalry under Zuo Mengeng's department has turned the tide of the battle in an instant. It began to develop in a direction that was beneficial to the officers and soldiers of Huguang.
……
At the same time, not far from the Banpodian battlefield, Li Zicheng, who had been lying in ambush on the hill for a while, hated it: "Who gave the Red Lady the order to dare to send troops without authorization?" ”
After getting Li Yan's information, Li Zicheng didn't bring anyone these days, only Tian Jianxiu and Li Yan, two small number of elite soldiers, and left Yan Li Zhai to Liu Zongmin to take charge for the time being, so he came over to observe Zuo Liangyu's forward army.
You must know that Li Zicheng has just gotten the information. Here are 400,000 taels of silver, 50,000 stones, and at least 3,000 rods of rumi. With so much military resources, even if the officers and soldiers want to buy it at a low price, they will have to pay at least 500,000 taels, and now they are all in the scope of Li Zicheng's ambush, how can this not make Li Zicheng excited and excited. If it weren't for the fear of scaring away Zuo Liangyu and this striker, Li Zicheng would have to do it himself. After all, Li Zicheng had 2,000 troops on hand, and although he was elite, he was not sure that he would be able to encircle and annihilate him.
But I never expected it. The red lady actually took the main force of the whole army to do it herself!
Li Yan on the side was also a little surprised at the moment when the red lady sent troops. However, Li Yan knew that although the red lady would annoy Li Zicheng by doing this, it was really not unauthorized.
Nian on the friendship between Dongming and Liuyuankou. Li Yan opened his mouth and said, "King Chuang." Now the red lady is stationed in the horizontal floor shop and builds a camp independently. At that time, King Chuang had a military order. The red lady can wait for the opportunity to fight in the face of the official army. ”
This is a rather vague and ambiguous authority to act freely.
Hearing Li Yan say this, Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment.
This is still after Liu Zongmin's suggestion. Li Zicheng agreed. Even how much Liu Zongmin took the benefits of the red lady, Li Zicheng knew. After all. The Red Lady is a female general, not only deeply discriminated against, but also unaccustomed to the lax law and discipline in the army. Sending the red lady out to consume strength with the official army, there was nothing wrong with thinking about it at the beginning.
Seeing that Li Zicheng was choked by himself, Li Yan knew that the heat was enough, so he gave Tian Jianxiu a look.
Tian Jianxiu is a good old man in the army, and he also has a good impression of Li Yan, so he understood a gesture, and said loudly: "King Chuang, the red lady is really not authentic, but as the old saying goes, it is better to make merit than to make a mistake, and these internal affairs in the army can be mentioned after the war." At the moment, the military situation is still important. ”
Tian Jianxiu opened his mouth, and Li Zicheng slowly bowed his head, which can be regarded as acknowledging and exposing this matter.
After all, such a coveted military fund is in front of you, and you can't stop fighting in a fit of anger. What's more, Zuo Liangyu was also involved in the overall strategic action of the Kaifeng Campaign.
Thinking of this, Li Zicheng looked at Li Yan: "Li Junshi, can you tell me?" ”
Li Yan pondered for a moment and said: "King Chuang, after the end of the general's decision, I still have more than 1,000 elite soldiers in my hands, and with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of the Red Lady, I can lure Zuo Liangyu's soldiers and horses to pursue all the way." At this moment, King Chuang ordered him to return to the camp, gather soldiers and horses, and ambush Zuo Liangyu's main force! Thinking of the importance of Zuo Liangyu, the officers and troops in the city will inevitably attack. With this encirclement point to send reinforcements, the day of Kaifeng can be waited! ”
Li Zicheng couldn't help but want to high-five and admire.
Being able to come up with such a feasible plan in such a short period of time, Li Yan's ability made Li Zicheng particularly admired. If it weren't for the fact that this plan really made Li Zicheng feel a little aggrieved, Li Zicheng really wanted to be rewarded.
After all, Li Zicheng originally had all the initiative in this battle. But the Red Lady's actions made Li Zicheng quite passive.
"If heavy troops are gathered here, how can more than 10,000 Huguang soldiers dare to be so rampant!" Li Zicheng was a little angry, but he was still extremely calm, looked at Li Yan and said, "You go and bring the red lady down!" Lead Zuo Liangyu all the way, don't let them run! ”
"Yes, the last general commands!" Li Yan was overjoyed when he heard this.
At this moment, on the battlefield of Banpodian, the development of the situation has begun to develop more and more in favor of Zuo Mengeng.
Li Guogui and Zhao Ma are weak, and they gradually can't support it after being targeted by Zuo Mengeng a few times. Although Pan Yong was brave, he was tired of running around and was soon unable to resist.
At this time, Jin Shenghuan began to make noise again, gathered the remaining nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and began to add chaos.
If it weren't for the fact that there were still more than 1,000 cavalry and an elite phoenix army of hundreds of people in the hands of the Red Lady who had not moved, Jin Shenghuan would have pressed all of them and launched a general attack.
"Red lady, let me go! The 2,000 cavalry of this official army fought too fiercely, and the brothers couldn't hold on! Leading the cavalry was a famous Qiu Huang, a short man with a beard on his face, who looked anxious at the moment.
The red lady just frowned: "The time has not yet come." ”
"What the hell is the timing?" Qiu Huang's heart was anxious.
Suddenly, the red lady's ears moved: "It seems to have arrived!" ”
Dusty, Li Yan led thousands of elite riders down from a small hill, rushing towards Zuo Mengeng like a wolf! (To be continued......)
