Chapter 270 Li Zicheng: Hahaha, the defeat of Cihou must be fake
Liu Fangliang led 12,000,000 Shun troops to attack the eastern defense line of Jinkou Town, and started charging from Ertonggu. By this time, he retreated, less than two quarters of an hour, but he had lost four or five thousand people.
Now there are only seven or eight thousand people who have retreated.
Because Liu Fangliang was captured, the generals and officials in the Shun Army were often "named" by female gunmen in the Zhuque Camp in the previous defense line battles. Even if the elite Shun Army was short of command of the general, they were defeated and retreated in disarray.
.
The Imperial Guard on the Eastern Front was angry, and Zhu Mai was ordered to chase after him.
For a moment, I don’t know how many Shunjun were chopped down from behind or shot in the back.
Fortunately, the generals of the Imperial Guard came to their senses and shouted loudly.
"The state supervisor has an order, and those who throw down their weapons and kneel down and surrender will not be killed!"
When Zhu Meiyu established five new military systems, relevant military orders were instilled - when the victory was scheduled, prisoners made more contributions than killing them.
Therefore, after the Imperial Guard on the Eastern Front chased and killed hundreds of Shun troops, he barely felt angry. When he heard the generals shouting orders, he also shouted.
Of course, if there is still those who resist, they will be killed by the Imperial Guard without hesitation.
At the same time, the three-horse mini-drone that had been hovering in the sky before was lowered to a height of 100 meters, and the selected recording was played while flying above the head of the fleeing Shunjun-
"The princess of the Ming Dynasty's governor has an order to throw down her weapons and kneel down to surrender, and those who surrender will be spared from death!"
This is just a very simple sentence.
But it was passed down from the top of the head, and the sound was extremely loud and the playback was weird.
For a moment, many Shunjun couldn't help but look up at the sky, and then they saw three miniature drones.
Realizing that the sound was uploaded from the "strange bird", many Shun Army soldiers were completely defeated and their psychological defenses were thrown away their weapons and fell to their knees.
Some even kowtow to the drone and beg for mercy.
"Take your life, I've descended!"
"Mr. Divine Bird, don't eat it, you have surrendered."
"Divine bird, please spare me, wuwu..."
The soldiers chasing the Imperial Guards looked at the place where the drone flew past, and the fleeing Shun Army actually knelt down in groups and begged for surrender.
This scene made the imperial guards chasing the enemy stunned.
On both sides of the north and south, the Shun Army was retreating in a relatively orderly manner, but because the drone appeared to "persuade surrender", the Shun Army on both sides immediately became in chaos.
But at this moment, the cavalry camp, which was divided into two parts by Ainengqi, chased after him.
Although there were only five hundred cavalry on one side, it became the last straw to overwhelm these Shun Army.
So, before the soldiers of the Xiaoqi camp rushed over and slashed, many Shun troops surrendered.
Some generals and officers of the Shun Army even surrendered in an established manner with their soldiers.
On the imperial ship, Zhu Mai saw these through the camera footage of a human-computer, and was quite speechless.
She saw the courage of the Shun Army to attack the eastern defense line before, and thought that even if they were defeated, it would be difficult to deal with it. She did not expect that they would surrender so simply now.
This made her some preparations unnecessary.
So Zhu Mai immediately contacted Hong Niangzi using the walkie-talkie.
"Mr. Hongniang, I have taken over all the Shun army that have been attacking this time in Jinkou Town. You don't have to send anyone."
The Hongniang was naturally a little surprised when she heard this, and then said with joy: "I understand. Congratulations to the Jianguo for winning the battle!"
Zhu Mei smiled, "I just took down one of the Shun Army first. If I want to win a complete victory, I have to deal with Li Zicheng on the other side of the river."
Although Zhu Mai said this to Hong Niangzi, after finishing the intercom, she had another plan when discussing the follow-up matters with Hao Guangming.
Hao Guangming said: "These 30,000 Shun Army that entered Jiangxia should be the hope of Li Zicheng's victory in this battle.
Now that you have solved this Shun Army, Li Zicheng should know that he has no chance of winning this battle.
However, I do not recommend that you continue to fight with Li Zicheng - no matter how much time it takes to defeat most of the Shun Army led by Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin.
Even if you really defeat him, where will the troops come from to take advantage of the opportunity to regain Hubei?
And even if the troops were sent to regain Hubei, they would face the Qing army led by Ajige next.
In this way, you will be completely dragged in Huguang, without time or force to go to Nanzhili to prevent the Qing army from going to Jiangnan."
Zhu Ma nodded slightly when she heard this and asked, "What is my husband's suggestion?"
"It's very simple. Using this battle as a bargaining chip, Li Zicheng gave up his plan to cross the river and evacuate from Hanyang Prefecture.
Li Zicheng probably didn't know about the Qing army going south on the east route, otherwise he wouldn't have always thought about taking Jiangnan as the foundation for fighting the world again.
Therefore, you can threaten him - if he insists on going south, you will go out to attack Jingxiang, leaving him without a place to stay!
In this way, he was allowed to withdraw his troops and withdraw from Hanyang Mansion and no longer raise his troops to go south!"
···
In the afternoon, the sun was west.
Near Hanyang Town.
The Dashun "Navigation Army" retreated back to Hanyang yesterday after being defeated, and the Shun army had nothing to do on the Han River.
Therefore, Li Zicheng led 30,000 to 40,000 troops to join forces with Liu Zongmin to attack Hanyang today.
As a result, Zeng Ying also sent the Yangtze River Navy to ashore to reinforce Yang Zhan in Hanyang Town.
Since the morning, he and Liu Zongmin launched five attacks, losing nearly 10,000 soldiers, but still failed to attack Hanyang Town.
Now some of the Ming Navy remain on the ship, and there are still more than 10,000 troops and horses on the opposite side of Hankou Town.
If these people gathered together, I am afraid that the remaining 60,000 troops he and Liu Zongmin would be defeated by the Ming army.
"Your Majesty, these Ming army guns and cannons are really amazing. Hanyang is obviously just a town and even the city walls are different, but they are guarding it like a iron connection. Uh, we really can't capture it."
After gathering the defeated troops who had retreated for the fifth attack, Liu Zongmin couldn't help but complain to Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng looked at the Yangtze River and said expressionlessly: "Well, I said it early in the morning. This time, we were just a feint attack to hold the Ming army in Jiangbei and buy time for Cihou to take down Jiangxia.
As long as he can defeat Jiang Xia or even capture that witch, we will always lose today and will eventually win!”
"Your Majesty said that, too." Liu Zongmin nodded and asked immediately: "Will you still attack today?"
Li Zicheng looked at the position of the sun and said, "It's still early. If the news of Magnetic Hou winning in Jiangxia came, we would have to fight again. We can't give the Ming army time to return to Jiangxia."
Liu Zongmin nodded, "Well, let's ask, who else dares to get on."
Hearing this, Li Zicheng finally had an expression, but his face was speechless.
I thought to myself: You, Liu Zongmin, are also a general under your command. Even if you lose five formations in a row and lose morale, you shouldn't be like this, as a general.
Isn’t this even more frustrated when the soldiers below heard this and can’t raise any desire to fight?
Li Zicheng was slandering Liu Zongmin when he saw a rider running out of the Ming army's defense line outside Hanyang Town.
The rider, with a flag representing the envoy behind him, came to the Shun Army formation and shouted: "Can Li Zicheng be in the army? We Zeng Shuai have something to say!"
Li Zicheng regarded himself as Emperor Dashun, and of course he would not respond to the call of an envoy.
So a general shouted in front of Shunjun, "If you have something to say, say it! If you have fart, let it go!"
The Ming army envoy did not care about the rudeness of the Shun Army generals, nor did he insist on letting Li Zicheng come forward, because he knew that his words would definitely reach Li Zicheng's ears.
"Zeng Shuai said: Li Zicheng, you are still waiting for news from Liu Fangliang, right? Don't wait.
Liu Fangliang led his army to attack Jinkou Town, and he was defeated by the Imperial Guards led by our country.
Liu Fangliang was captured alive, and the rest were either killed on the spot or surrendered to prisoners.
The supervisor sent me to persuade you to withdraw your troops and withdraw from Hanyang Prefecture.
Otherwise, we will send troops to attack Jingxiang and attack you and others with the Qing army, so that you will have no place to stay!"
After hearing this, the entire Shunjun army formation was as quiet as if it was dead.
Liu Fangliang led 30,000 partial troops to attack Jiangxia. The senior generals of the Shun Army knew that the middle-level generals had some vague speculations, but the low-level generals and ordinary soldiers did not know about it.
Now the Ming army envoy said that the 30,000 partial divisions led by Liu Fangliang were defeated and all the people were gone. Even Liu Fangliang was captured alive. How could the Shun Army accept this?
After several breaths, tens of thousands of Shunjun seemed to be alive and started talking buzzingly—
"How is this possible? Didn't Cihou go to attack Hankou? How could he be defeated and captured on the opposite side of Jiang?"
"Thirty thousand people, how could they be defeated by the Princess of the Reign of the Kingdom? Didn't it mean that the Princess of the Reign of the Kingdom is just a teenage girl? I won't believe this!"
"This news must be used by the Ming army to confuse our morale!"
“···”
On a high slope in the military formation, Liu Zongmin and other senior generals who were informed of the situation all looked at Li Zicheng, but no one spoke.
Obviously, they were all waiting for Li Zicheng to say.
Li Zicheng was silent for several breaths, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Ming Jun said this, it must be that Male Male had forced the witch and the Hongmao into the Jedi in Jiangxia!
Zeng Ying saw that he was unable to return the support, so he would release this fake news to confuse the people and deceive the people to retreat so that he could return to Jiangxia!
Let the soldiers in the previous stage pass the u: Thank you Zeng Shuai for telling you that the u is winning in Jiangxia!”
