Chapter 273: Bloody Funiu Mountain

From Xuchang to Funiu Mountain, the distance is only dozens of miles, in the morning, Li Zicheng led the army out of the city, and arrived at the Funiu Mountain in the afternoon.

The Funiu Mountains lie across the middle of Henan, to the territory of Xuchang, it is already a little remnant, the mountain is not how precipitous, the jungle is dense, the official road leading to Nanyang from Xuchang is just passing under the Funiu Mountain.

Running dozens of miles in one breath, the army felt a little tired, and now it has entered May, the weather is beginning to get hot, and marching against the scorching sun has added to the hardship of the army.

"King Chuang, why don't we take a break for a while, bury the pot and make rice, fill our stomachs and then hurry forward......

Liu Zongmin stood beside Li Zicheng and asked in a low voice.

Li Zicheng shook his head and replied: "No, the cavalry of the Ming army is not far away from us, we may be caught up at any time, march overnight, tonight, we must cross Funiu Mountain and arrive at Xiangcheng!" When we arrived in Xiangcheng, we were able to take a breath! ”

Liu Zongmin's face darkened, wiped it, to Xiangcheng, it was a full hundred miles away, the army marched a hundred miles in one day and one night, this is too exaggerated......

Song Xiance on the side said in a deep voice: "King Chuang, in my opinion, maybe this Funiu Mountain is the best place for us to repel the Ming cavalry!" ”

Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Strategist, what do you mean?" ”

Song Xiance replied: "King Chuang, this Funiu Mountain is densely forested, the terrain is towering, it is not conducive to the cavalry to carry out a surprise attack, if we occupy the favorable terrain and condescend, then the cavalry of the Ming army will be useless, maybe we defeat the main cavalry of the Ming army, it is not ......known."

Li Zicheng's heart moved, what Song Xiance said was not unreasonable, on the vast plain, if you want to compete with the cavalry, it is almost impossible, the cavalry's assault ability is too strong, once you run, it is simply unstoppable! However, in the mountains and plains, it is the world of infantry, and the uneven terrain and dense jungle make it impossible for the cavalry to spread their hands and feet!

"Well, what the military advisor said makes sense, hmph, since Zhu Jie wants to kill us all, then we will fight them to the death in the mountains! Zong Min, our brothers were spinning around in the mountains in the light a few years ago, Zhu Jie, a soil bun who has just debuted, what do you know? We're here to fight them to the death! ”

Li Zicheng said fiercely.

"This ......"

Liu Zongmin was a little hesitant, obviously he still had some lingering palpitations about the cavalry of the Ming army, and the days in the mountains were too sad.

"What? Zong Min, what about your original guts? You weren't like that back then! ”

Li Zicheng said unhappily.

Liu Zongmin's chest straightened and shouted: "King Chuang, what did you say?" For more than ten years, when have you ever seen me Liu Zongmin admit it? Isn't it a fight to the death? In this battle, we fought with the Ming army! Back then, we could make a comeback with only a few dozen horsemen, but now we have to have soldiers and generals, but we are afraid? That's a joke! ”

"Okay, in that case, Zong Min, lead an elite army to enter Funiu Mountain immediately and occupy the favorable terrain; Fang Liang, lead an elite protection army to prevent the sneak attack of the Ming cavalry, I don't think it will be until tomorrow morning, Zhu Jie's cavalry will catch up, and then it will be the moment of our life and death! ”

Li Zicheng shouted.

The army began to pulse towards Funiu Mountain!

It's just that Li Zicheng didn't think that now Shu Xinchen's cavalry has already arrived at the foot of Funiu Mountain to ambush, just waiting for the intrusive army to pounce!

Shu Xinchen rode a war horse, stood on the top of the hill, and looked at it from a distance, the army of the intruding army was like a long dragon, walking in a long way, and was approaching the Funiu Mountains, which was only two miles away from his position!

"Xu Ke, immediately go to the opposite mountain to send a message, once the Chuang army enters within 100 zhang, launch an attack on the Chuang camp at the same time, and don't leave them the slightest time!"

Shu Xinchen shouted, and Xu Ke, the chief flag on the side, hurriedly agreed, turned around and ran down.

Liu Zongmin's 8,000 troops quickly approached the Funiu Mountain Range, and when they reached the foot of the mountain-

Suddenly, a trumpet sounded, one south and one north, and two cavalry rushed down from the top of the hill and rushed straight to the army camp!

Liu Zongmin's face changed greatly, and he roared angrily: "It's not good, there is an ambush, immediately respond to the battle, respond to the battle!" ”

The army that is advancing is now a bird with a frightened bow, even if there is a little wind and grass, it will be flustered, and now thousands of elite horsemen rushed down from the mountain, like a storm and waves, and before they rushed to the front of the army, the army had begun to be chaotic!

After all, this is a group of remnants of the defeated generals, the original structure has already been broken up by the Ming army, and it is temporarily organized together, there is no tacit cooperation like the original army, let alone the previous majestic courage.

Before Liu Zongmin had organized his army, thousands of cavalry had already stabbed into the queue of the intruding army and began to rampage!

On the official road, Liu Zongmin's team started a march, a row of more than a dozen people, thousands of people discharged more than two miles, how could such a thin defense block the cavalry assault? As long as the cavalry sprints, they will beat the invading army, and the invading army has not yet assembled again, and the cavalry will kill it again in a roundabout, and give them a heart-to-heart!

The entire vanguard unit of the invading army was cut into more than a dozen sections by Shu Xinchen's cavalry, and under the assault of the cavalry, it collapsed instantly!

Liu Zongmin was so angry that he jumped like thunder, brandishing a big knife and attacking the cavalry, but no matter how strong a person's bravery is, it is only one person, which can play a role to a certain extent, but it cannot reverse the situation in front of him, dozens of elite cavalry trapped Liu Zongmin in the middle, even if Liu Zongmin is strong, it is very difficult to clash in a short time!

In the distance, Li Zicheng had already discovered the raiding cavalry, and he was shocked, and hurriedly shouted: "Zhang Nai, Zhang Nai, immediately lead a force to support Liu Zongmin, you must repel this cavalry for me!" ”

Zhang Nai, who was beside him, agreed, brandished his weapon, and rushed forward, but now the entire vanguard of the army has been in a mess, even if Zhang Nai pounces up, it is impossible to reverse the collapse of the army in front of him, and the cavalry of the Ming army, which has become crazy, is so strong that it is unimaginable!

However, Liu Zongmin was not stupid, and finally rushed out of the entanglement of dozens of cavalry, and roared angrily: "Order, order, immediately assemble the team and entangle all the cavalry for me!" Waiting for the army in the rear, Lao Tzu will definitely not let them go this time! ”
