Chapter 314: Heaven and Earth Waiting for the Thief
"What?"
Qin Mufeng was in a hurry and shouted: "Sima Kang, lead three thousand infantry to move quickly towards the north of Nanyang, protect our backs, and ensure the safety behind us no matter what!" No matter who wants to do something behind our backs, they will be wiped out in one fell swoop, and the grain channel will be cut off, I will look at your head first! ”
Sima Kang hurriedly agreed and ran down to gather the infantry.
Qin Mufeng glared at Qian Bikai fiercely, and shouted: "Qian Bikai, go back to Nanyang Mansion immediately, tell Yifan that bastard that he owes Lao Tzu a big favor, and order the cavalry to immediately march in the direction of Xinye!" ”
Qin Mufeng didn't dare to wait, who knows where the army has reached now? Who knows if Shu Xinchen can kill the reinforcements led by Liu Tichun now? That's twenty or thirty thousand people, and they are going all out to help Li Zicheng, and they will definitely not bring a group of rabble, they must be the elite forces in the army!
Now there are still two or three hundred miles from his position to Xinye County, how can it take two or three days to reach Xinye, even if he marches with all his might, it will take more than a day, but in that case, when he arrives in Xinye, he is afraid that his two thousand cavalry will also be wasted.
I have to say that all of a sudden, Qin Mufeng's brain was enlightened, Xu Yifan was able to think of Li Zicheng's reinforcements from Huguang this time, but he couldn't expect that Li Zicheng actually offered a big price and asked Li Dingguo to send a large army to help!
It is true that Li Zicheng has been defeated in Henan in successive battles, but in Huguang and Sichuan, the current Zhang Xianzhong forces are in full swing, and they are not far behind Li Zicheng's heyday, especially Li Dingguo led the elite of the Xian army into Huguang Province in one go, and now Huguang Province's defense is empty, there are no famous generals in charge, and there is no elite division, so it can't resist Li Dingguo's thunderous offensive at all, and even Wuchang Mansion was captured by Li Dingguo.
Li Zicheng occupied the four northern provinces of Huguang, but Li Dingguo occupied the three central provinces of Huguang Province, and kept away from the nest of Sichuan by himself, firmly occupied Jingmen and Wuchang, and faced the Ming army and the treacherous and cunning Li Zichen, without superhuman ability, it was impossible to do it.
Ten days ago, Li Dingguo of Jingzhou Mansion got a letter from Li Zicheng asking for help, Li Dingguo was overjoyed, although Li Zicheng did not deal with his father-in-law, but both were righteous armies, both were recruited and killed from Shaanxi, even if there was some friction, it was a trivial matter, both sides had a common enemy, that was the Ming Court, now Li Zicheng can't stand it, ask for help from himself, it is the best time to sacrifice the army from the southwest corner of the land to kill, and chase the Central Plains!
Dispatch troops!
Li Dingguo immediately summoned the generals and prepared to lead the army to the battle!
"Little general, this, Li Zicheng is a generation of heroes, treacherous like a ghost, let's go to help him like this, don't let him go......"
Lu Xiong, the partial general on the side, hesitated.
Li Dingguo smiled lightly: "What kind of way? ”
Lu Xiong replied: "Little general, don't forget Luo Rucai's experience, without Luo Rucai, how could Li Zicheng be able to gallop across Henan and Shaanxi in a generation and conquer cities?" But then, as soon as Li Zicheng's wings hardened, he swung his knife and slashed at Luo Rucai, killing Luo Rucai! Such a capricious villain, what are we going to do to save him? If you don't do it, you will be bitten back by him! ”
"Haha, joke! Luo Rucai? That's just a mediocre man who relies on his qualifications to be a loser, simple-minded, and well-developed waste! Li Zicheng wants to deal with me? That's dreaming, if he really dares to touch my thoughts...... Lu Xiong, have you ever heard of the False Dao Falsification? After General Ben repaired the Ming army, by the way, even the four mansions of Huguang that broke into the camp were robbed! ”
Li Dingguo laughed.
Lu Xiong's heart jumped, the little general in front of him was not an ordinary character, he was really a handsome man who was decisive and strategic, don't look at his age, he was not yet thirty years old, but he was really the first tiger general in the army! Perhaps, what he said can really be realized......
"Pass the order, gather 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry in Jingzhou Mansion, from now on, advance in the direction of Nanyang Mansion, cross Xiangyang and break directly into Nanyang, Lu Xiong, the defense of Jingzhou Mansion and Wuchang Mansion will be handed over to you, be careful!"
"Yes, little general!"
The 20,000 elite division, although it is not very powerful, is already the largest force that Li Dingguo can draw in a short period of time, and the rest are far away in Wuchang Mansion and Yongzhou Mansion, where can they be transferred back for a while.
20,000 troops, from Jingzhou Mansion to Nanyang!
20,000 dedicated troops, at least 50,000 troops, plus less than 40,000 Ming troops, spread out in a small space from Xiangyang to Nanyang, the mountain rain is coming, once it is fully launched, the entire Nanyang Mansion will fall into a huge chaos again!
Xinye County, here is the southernmost point of Henan Province, south of Huguang, east of Tongbai Mountain, since ancient times is the Zhongzhou barrier, strategic rush, is the gateway of Henan Province, whether it is Guangwu Zhongxing, or the rise of Shu Han, are inseparable from this treasure land, now, the rain blows away, the status of Xinye County is not as prominent as the Han Dynasty, but it is still the gateway of Henan, from Huguang into Henan, almost is the only way!
In order to rush to the aid of King Chuang, Liu Tichun gathered all the elites of Xiangyang and Huangzhou in one breath, and began to advance rapidly towards Nanyang Mansion, however, unlike Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo was attacking, and the army was basically gathered together, one in Wuchang and one in Jingzhou, and it was naturally easier to dispatch 20,000 troops, but the remaining troops of the four provinces of Huguang were distributed in the four state capitals, and Li Zicheng dispatched a large number of elites to the north, and he had to gather a large number of troops to go north for a while. Where can it be achieved in a hurry?
From ordering the gathering of troops to waving the army to kill Xinye, it took more than ten days, Liu Tichun has been angry these days, but there is no way, who made the army too scattered now?
It is easy to gather troops, so naturally they have to march with all their might, and no one knows how long Nanyang's King Chuang will be able to hold out!
Nearly 30,000 elite soldiers killed Xinye, crossed the Baihe River, and went straight to Xiangyang, but where did Liu Tichun know that Shu Xinchen had already laid an ambush north of the Baihe River, just waiting for the reinforcements to jump into the pit!
In just one day and one night, 20,000 or 30,000 troops crossed the Baihe River and entered Xinye's Xindian Bay and Jianxian Ridge, which was the snare of the Ming army in this small space!
