It was an unusually tragic fight. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Everyone's face is hideous, and the chill of every knife, every sword, and every spear is cold and bloodthirsty.

He Renlong has three generals under him, Wang Zhen, Sun Gang, and Ji Min. Among the three people, Wang Zhen and Sun Gang fought in the ambush circle, while Ji Min alone led 3,000 soldiers outside the ambush circle, responsible for intercepting the army of thieves who kept coming up.

In the encirclement, the officers and troops had a clear upper hand. Although Liu Guoneng commanded his subordinates to resist desperately, the peasant army was far inferior to the official army in terms of equipment and training, so it suffered heavy losses.

Some of Li Zicheng's troops had already entered the ambush circle, but Li Zicheng and the other seven or eight thousand people were still outside the ambush circle, and before other troops rushed up, they temporarily became the main force to attack Ji Min and rescue Liu Guoneng's troops.

Li Zicheng's command was determined, and the tactical literacy of his soldiers was a cut higher than that of other rogues, and in addition to the frontal attack of three or four thousand people, the other three or four thousand people began to detour to the left and right, trying to surround Ji Min's three thousand people.

However, if seven or eight thousand people want to rush together, it will inevitably cause each other to be squeezed.

Seeing this, He Renlong decisively ordered the cavalry to attack.

A thousand cavalry took the lead and rushed towards Li Zicheng's troops at lightning speed. Originally, in addition to the grass, there were many low and hard shrubs on both sides of the road, and it was difficult for the cavalry to rush up. However, He Renlong had already cut down most of the bushes in this area earlier, leaving only weeds, so that the cavalry could rush up.

The powerful impact caused the rogue formations who were huddled together and ready to rush forward into chaos, and there were hundreds of dead and wounded people who were trampled on each other by the war horses alone.

Then the cavalry began to harvest, and the sabers rose one after another, setting off a burst of bloody shadows.

After a period of chaos, Li Zicheng's troops began to fight back. The pikemen surrounded them one after another, stabbing people if they could, stabbing people if they couldn't stab people, and for a while the cavalry of the Ming army turned over on their backs.

However, in this way, the scene was even more chaotic, preventing the reinforcements from coming up. Here's the benefit of the ambush – it can hit a time difference. Before the rogue army in the back did not catch up, the officers and soldiers in the front of the battlefield were profitable.

Not long after the battle outside the ambush circle, the Ming cavalry suffered more than 200 casualties, while Li Zicheng's troops suffered more than 400 casualties. The Ming cavalry turned around and ran.

Liukou was naturally not stupid enough to chase the cavalry, and when he saw that the cavalry had run away, he adjusted slightly, preparing to continue the previous plan and surround Ji Min's department.

At this time, the second wave of 1,000-strong Ming cavalry arrived again. The powerful impact once again disrupted Li Zicheng's department.

This is He Renlong's established tactic. That is, the cavalry constantly attacks the opposing team, so as to cause chaos and block the road, and increase the difficulty of the opponent's reinforcements to catch up.

The tactics worked, and under the onslaught of wave after wave of cavalry, Gao Yingxiang's army was cut into two sections, one inside the encirclement and the other outside the encirclement at all times.

In the encirclement, Liu Guoneng led his men to fight hard in an attempt to break through, but the officers and troops surrounded them so tightly that they couldn't break through at all.

Roars, fights, blood, stumps, screams, death!

The heavy smell of blood floated in the air for a long time.

Most of these rogues were peasants, many of whom had never experienced such a brutal war, and many of them trembled with fright, and desperately squeezed among their allies so that they could be safer for the time being.

However, it hastened the overall downfall.

The clearance in the ambush circle went well, and in less than a quarter of an hour, only four thousand of the eight thousand men remained. And the officers and troops lost only more than a thousand people.

But at this time, the tide of battle changed abruptly.

I saw that in the grass on both sides, the sound of rustling continued.

He Renlong frowned, what he feared most had happened.

The rogue behind was not stupid, and when the official road was blocked, he immediately made a detour and killed him from the grass on both sides, in an attempt to outflank the officers and soldiers.

He Renlong immediately sent cavalry to intercept it, so the two sides started another battle in the grass. The cavalry did not have the greatest advantage in the grass, but it was condescending to have a certain advantage against the infantry.

After Zhang Xiao saw many Ming troops entering the grass in the north, he did not hesitate to order the cavalry to attack and intercept them.

At this time, Wang Zhen and Sun Gang in the ambush circle saw that the situation outside was not good, and after discussing a few words, Sun Gang took 3,000 people out to intercept the enemy army and prevent it from being counter-surrounded.

The 3,000 men immediately divided into two groups, one in the north of the province and the other in the south of the province, and cooperated with the cavalry to block the attack.

Countless rogues continue to rush up like the tide, endlessly, and there is no end in sight.

And that's just the part of the front, and the farthest away from them is still four or five miles away.

The fight continues!

Hanseong.

Cao Wenzhao led 10,000 cavalry and arrived in Hancheng according to the predetermined plan.

Their task is to reach Hancheng first, if the thieves are attacking the city, they will wait for the opportunity to attack, and if they have already withdrawn, then they will chase after them.

Cao Wenzhao saw that the Liukou near Hancheng had long been empty, and he knew that they had already run away. According to the predetermined plan, they immediately chased westward.

Why face west? Because the He Renlong in the west is the weakest, Gao Yingxiang's thoughts, they can also guess!

At the same time, Cao Wenzhao also sent more than a dozen cavalry to inform the defenders in the city, telling them that Gao Yingxiang had run west.

Of course, Zuo Guangxian in the city already knew that Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong had run away, but he only had 7,000 soldiers in his hands, and he didn't dare to chase them, so after thinking about it, he still chose the safest way to stay in the city. As long as Han Cheng is not lost, he has meritorious service in defending the city, and it is enough to explain to his superiors.

However, Cao Wenzhao specially sent troops to inform him that the thieves had fled, obviously wanting to chase him with soldiers. After thinking about it, he felt that people had come all the way to Hancheng to help, and he didn't look good if he didn't pull out a dime, so he sent Xia Peicheng to chase after him with 3,000 soldiers to the west.

At this time, Hong Chengchou and his team had already driven to the Tanma area, which was still about 20 miles away from Banqiao, and it would take at least half an hour to get there. And Qin Shuhuai was afraid that He Renlong would not be able to withstand it, so he took Chen Jinghe and the remaining more than 2,500 cavalry to Banqiao first, and at this time it was less than 10 miles away from Banqiao.

The Great Battle of Itabashi continued. With the continuous influx of rogues, Ji Minbu, who was responsible for intercepting reinforcements, could no longer withstand it, and only about 800 people were left after 3,000 kills. And the 8,000 cavalry led by Zhang Xiao and He Renlong, in the face of the tide of rogues, after smashing left and right in the grass, the physical strength of both the war horse and the soldier was greatly reduced, and now they are completely powerless to block the opponent's counter-encirclement.

In the ambush circle, Liu Guoneng's 8,000 people had been killed until there were only about 1,000 left. The ground was so densely packed with corpses that it was impossible to get off your feet, and if you weren't careful, you would trip over them. Among these corpses, most of them were originally the corpses of the rogues, but after the rogue army caught up, the corpses of the officials and soldiers also soared rapidly.

It's dark, and it's impossible to count which side has lost how many people!

After another quarter of an hour, the soldiers of the He Renlong Department gradually discovered that they were full of rogues in front and back, left and right, and countless bright weapons stretched out from different angles, leaving a deep wound on their bodies if they were not careful.

They are already surrounded!
