Chapter 213: Target Runing Mansion

The unlucky Li Guo was caught off guard by Gao Jie, tens of thousands of troops fought together, with more than 20,000 casualties, this battle was too embarrassing, if it was a real battle, Li Guo may not be Gao Jie's opponent, but who made you so greedy?

In Nanyang Mansion for three days in a row, all the soldiers under his command have already grabbed red eyes, who can take care of defending the city?

Li Guo now wants to cry without tears, he originally took Nanyang Mansion, he just sent good news to his uncle, and then he was kicked out, he didn't have the face to see his uncle, and he had to be laughed to death by the generals in the camp?

"Little General, what now?"

Luo Sanhuai, the deputy general on the side, asked astringently.

"What can I do? Temporarily collect the defeated troops, prepare to attack Nanyang Mansion again, don't take Nanyang Mansion before King Chuang arrives, we will stick our heads in the crotch of our pants in the future! In any case, we must also take Nanyang Mansion! ”

Li Guo roared.

"But, little general, this is impossible, you look at our current soldiers, even counting the lively ones, there are only more than 20,000 people, the Ming army is prepared this time, they are all elite, and the strength is almost 30,000, so we will attack Nanyang Mansion with such a small number of troops in our hands? Isn't that a moth to a fire and a self-destruction? ”

Luo Sanhuai was startled and hurriedly persuaded.

Li Guo almost cried, this time, his heel is planted at home, from the beginning of the anti-Ming Dynasty to the present, it is not that the army has not lost a battle, but the one who lost so aggrieved has never appeared! It's so aggrieved! Aggrieved to the extreme!

It's easy to say it yourself, just rely on the current 20,000 remnants of the defeated generals to attack Nanyang Mansion again? Don't say that the Ming army has 30,000 troops, even if it is only a few thousand, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat it, the momentum of the army has been depressed to the extreme!

Bear with it, now you can only wait for the main force of King Chuang to come up.

Li Guo is waiting for King Chuang's troops to come up, in Nanyang City, the current Gao Jie is also waiting for Sun Chuanting's main force to come up, and it is already a great achievement to take Nanyang Mansion, and now Gao Jie belongs to the lone army in depth, at this time it is best to wait and see what happens, and pursue the army?

At least Gao Jie doesn't have this plan now, all the areas south of Nanyang Mansion are already under the control of the thieves, and now chase and defeat the retreating army, once they encounter an ambush, they don't know how to die when they die, it's better to be honest.

In just three days, Sun Chuanting's army came to Nanyang Mansion, the distance from Kaifeng to Nanyang Mansion exceeded six hundred miles, Sun Chuanting only took twelve days, and rushed to Nanyang, this time in order to minimize the scourge of the army to the people in Henan, Sun Chuanting did not even bring his own train battalion, all the way to the hurry!

"General Gao Jie, how is it? The thieves didn't make any changes, did they? ”

Sun Chuanting asked.

Gao Jie smiled bitterly: "Master Inspector, there is no change in the current thieves, but the humble position is still a step late, when I arrived in Nanyang Mansion, Nanyang Mansion has been captured by the thieves, after entering the city, the thieves burned, killed and looted, and the disaster of Nanyang Mansion is powerful enough, in just two days, at least thousands of people died in their hands, and the entire Nanyang Mansion was looted by the thieves......

"Humph!"

Sun Chuanting's face was gloomy, and he snorted angrily: "This group of damned thieves has been tossing for seventeen years, and the people of the Ming Dynasty have been harmed by them, from Shaanxi to Sichuan, and then to Hubei, Nanzhili, Henan, Shanxi, wherever the thieves go, the chickens and dogs are restless, and the people are displaced!" It should have been all of them wiped out a long time ago, if it weren't for the entry of the Eight Banners of Manchuria at the beginning, Inspector Lu and Hong Chengchou and I would have wiped out these thieves a long time ago! It's a pity ......."

Sun Chuanting said well, at the beginning, Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, plus Sun Chuanting, the three famous generals made every effort to encircle and suppress the peasant army, whether it was Gao Yingxiang Luo Rucai, or Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, the three of them were like lost dogs, but unfortunately, at the most critical time, Chongzhen made a will, transferred away the pillar Lu Xiangsheng, and threw Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting down to suppress the bandits, and then the Qing army entered the customs, and the two people were ordered to Qin Wang again, the Qing army withdrew, Hong Chengchou was transferred to guard Liaodong, Sun Chuanting was imprisoned for something, The matter of exterminating the peasant army was completely delayed in this way, and by the time Sun Chuanting came out of the mountain again, the peasant army had already become a prairie fire, especially Li Zicheng's momentum was even more vigorous, if it wasn't for Zhu Jie's birth, even Sun Chuanting would have died in the battle of Persimmon Garden.

"Master Inspector, it's not too late to encircle and suppress them, when the Zhu Jie brothers left, they left us the drawings of the muskets, and now we have equipped nearly a thousand, the power of these muskets is much more powerful than the musket, with the help of muskets, what are you afraid of thieves!"

Gao Jie said proudly.

Sun Chuanting nodded and replied: "Okay, General Gao, even so, we can't underestimate Li Zicheng too much, this guy is cunning, you know better than the nest, it's very difficult to deal with, what's the situation now?" ”

Gao Jie hurriedly said: "My lord, now the left army of the thieves has been defeated by me, Li Guo led the remnants of the defeated army to retreat all the way to thirty miles away, and the right army has already captured Runing Mansion, and there are not many lowly troops, so they dare not divide their troops to attack Runing Mansion, so they have been waiting for you here, and the main force of the thieves led by Li Zicheng has also arrived less than two hundred miles away from us, and there will be four days at most to reach the city of Nanyang Mansion, this battle is inevitable, He is willing to lead his elite to attack again, and first clean up the remnants of Li Guo's defeated generals! Then fight to the death with Li Zicheng! ”

Sun Chuanting shook his head and replied: "Li Guo's remnants of the defeated army have nothing to worry about, it's just a rabble, it's not worth our fight, we must take Runing Mansion as soon as possible, and then Nanyang and Runing echo each other from afar, and maintain a flanking posture against Li Zicheng's main force, even if Li Zicheng is strong now, it will definitely be difficult to help us!" ”

Gao Jie nodded excitedly and replied: "My lord, then this battle should be handed over to the humble position, the humble position will lead the main force under his command to attack Runing Mansion, at most ten days, at least five days, and you will definitely take Runing Mansion!" ”

Sun Chuanting nodded with satisfaction, Gao Jie can be said to be the most capable general under his command now, the strength of Runing is not weak, if you want to take Runing, you can't do it without a competent general!

"Okay, Gao Jie, the burden of attacking Runing City has also been handed over to you, as long as you take Runing Mansion and repel Li Zicheng, then you will be the first to work!"
