The three armies from Zijing Pass, Daomaguan and Tumen Guandong had a total of 50,000 cavalry, and they were completely wiped out in Wenyu River. Nearly 40,000 people from high school were surrendered.

If Li Zicheng saw this scene, he would probably regret it.

Did I get kicked in the head by a donkey? What kind of soldiers are there for no reason?

Is it not good to stick to Shanxi and Tongguan, which rely on its own world and rivers?

However, Li Zicheng did not know the news at this time.

Even Li Yan, who led the South Road and Main Road, didn't know the news.

At this time, Li Yan had led his army of 30,000 to the vicinity of Jining Prefecture.

From Linqing to Jining, the two sides of the canal were originally extremely prosperous. Li Yan had also come several times before joining the army. The endless canal ships flowing in the river, the rows of shops on both sides, the ship locks and bridges and the bustling vendors on the streets at both ends all left a deep impression on the young Li Yan.

However, at this time, everything you see along the way is ruins.

The endless stream of canals has disappeared, leaving only the canals still flowing.

The rows of shops have also turned into ruins, and the prosperous towns and villages have also turned into broken walls.

The bustling peddlers and pawns also disappeared. On the lock bridge, the Kneestone Street was covered with knee-deep artemisia. When people and horses passed by, they often shocked pheasants or hares, making them a scene of the end of the world.

There is a strange iron building road.

Li Yan couldn't help but feel a little sad. Has the prosperous Shandong become like this?

This result was not what Li Yan wanted. He just hoped to overthrow the riot and let the people live a good life. Who would have thought that it would turn out like this in the end? It hurts!

At this moment, Li Yan was really full of self-blame.

Li Nian looked at his brother with some concern.

Since passing Linqingzhou, there has been no smile on my brother's face.

Li Nian knew that his brother must be blaming himself, blaming himself for not being able to save the world and the people.

"Brother, you are not blamed for this matter." Li Nian advised, "The disaster in Shandong was not caused by our Dashun Army, but by the repeated escorts of the Ming army and Jiannu in Henan."

"Does Shandong's condemnation really have nothing to do with our Dashun Army?"

Li Yan shook his head and sighed, "I'm afraid that it may not be. Our Dashun Army is probably one of the culprits because of the sufferings we have suffered today."

"But these must be borne." Li Nian said, "If you don't destroy it, you won't establish it. If you want to overthrow the Explosion and recast a bright world, you must pay a price. This is impossible to avoid."

"Suppose the riot?" Li Yan said Youyou, "Is it really a riot?"

"Brother, what are you talking about?" Li Nian suddenly changed color and said, "Isn't it?"

Li Yan asked back without answering, "Second brother, do you still remember the two meetings with Chongzhen in Chahar and in Tongzhou? Do you think Chongzhen is like a tyrant?"

"Not like it." Li Nian shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like a tyrant at all."

"In fact, it's not." Li Yandao, "Nan Ming is now prosperous under the governance of Chongzhen, and the situation is much better than ours."

Li Nian was speechless.

Dashun and the Ming court were not separated.

Every year, many merchants enter Nanming to do business.

So Li Nian and the others have heard about what happened in Nanming.

After a while, Li Yan sighed and said, "Maybe, we are really wrong."

Li Nian really wanted to ask back, and then what? So do we want to switch to the Ming court?

Just when Li Nian couldn't help but want to ask this sentence, Li Mou came back.

"Brother, big brother!" Li Mou came to Li Yan with a loud voice and shouted, "A Ming army was found in front of him, with about 10,000 people!"

"Ming Army?" Li Yan's expression suddenly condensed.

The Ming army today is not the Ming army of the past, so it should not be underestimated.

"Tell me to order me." Li Yan shouted immediately, "The whole army lined up and accelerated its advance."

After dozens of cavalry ordered the cavalry to gallop away, Li Yan ordered Li Mou again: "Third brother, you lead the scout cavalry to increase the search range and ensure that there are no Ming ambush within twenty miles of the surrounding area."

Li Mou retorted: "Brother, there are all uncovered flat ground here."

"Idiot, have you forgotten how Jiannu was defeated in the Battle of Guting Town?" Li Yan's face turned black in an instant, "Look at the artemisia bushes on both sides of the canal, and the plains can also be ambushed!"

"Receive the order." Li Mou shivered and quickly led the scouts to scatter.

Li Nian rode his horse to follow Li Yan and asked, "Do you want to eat this Ming army?"

"If you have the chance, eat them." Li Yan nodded, "It just so happens that we need food and grass urgently now. This Ming army has tens of thousands of troops, so it should carry a lot of food and grass."

...

However, Li Yan miscalculated this time.

This Ming army did not carry much food and grass.

Because this Ming army was a student army led by Wang Jiayan and Jin Xuan.

Wang Jiayan and Jin Xuan did not expect that they would be subjected to the puppet Shun army near Jiningzhou, and they were cavalrymen.

When they discovered the scouts of the puppet Shun Army, everything was too late. If they wanted to urgently retreat to Jiningzhou City to defend, it was too late. So Wang Jiayan sent a quick horse to Xuzhou for help, and ordered a defensive formation on the spot against the canal.

The only thing that is thankful is that there are many retired soldiers in the Beijing Supervisory Bureau, and there is also a 300-man guard. The guards are all veterans who retired from the New Army. Although they are physically disabled, they do not prevent them from firing.

"Line, line up!" The person in charge of command was Jin Hyun, who was organizing the students.

The students were obviously a little panicked, either going into the formation or running into the formation of other classes.

Jin Hyun spent a lot of effort to organize it with dozens of retired scholars and nearly 10,000 students.

However, Jin Hyun did not think that these students could withstand the impact of the pseudo-Shun cavalry. Even the Shizi Camp was vulnerable at the beginning and did not grow up until after the Xuzhou War.

The student soldiers in front of them were even worse than the original Scholar camp.

What's worse is that there are no fortifications to defend, and that's the end.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Therefore, Jin Hyun doesn’t know what this battle will end up in the end.

But even so, they had no choice but to fight the enemy to the death.

Jin Xuan placed the 300 guards of the North Supervisory Commission in front of the formation, and he and Wang Jiayan stood at the forefront of the queue. There was nothing else, they just hoped to inspire the courage of the students through their own leadership.

However, courage is not so easy to inspire.

Time passed by bit by bit, and a faint thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.

Then the ground under my feet began to tremble slightly, as if it was about to have an earthquake.

Everyone turned their eyes to the north unstoppable, and saw a black line already appeared on the horizon. Needless to say, it must be a pseudo-shun cavalry.

】

Wang Jiayan and Kim Hyun raised the telescope at the same time.

After seeing the pseudo-shun cavalry formation clearly, the two of them felt a sank at the same time.

Judging from this formation, there were at least 20,000 pseudo-Shun cavalry attacking!

...

Li Yan was still very cautious. He was still thousands of steps away from the Ming army formation, so he stopped his cavalry. Even if he didn't see the Ming army carrying cannons, Li Yan didn't want to get too close.

The Ming army was cunning, what if the Red Barbarian cannons were hidden?

After drinking Dajun, Li Yan took out the monocular telescope from his leather bag.

Li Nian also took out the telescope from the leather bag and pointed it at the Ming army formation.

For generals of Dashun, monocular telescopes are still a luxury product, and only senior generals can equip them, but Li Nian's telescope was seized.

After observing for a while, Li Nian suddenly exclaimed lightly.

"Brother, this Ming army looks a bit strange. Are wooden sticks used as weapons?"

Li Yan had also seen that in addition to the generals and a few soldiers in front of the Ming army, they were holding short guns and bird guns, and the tens of thousands of infantrymen lined up behind them, actually holding wooden sticks in their hands.

There is such a poor Ming army? There is no sword?

At this time, Li Nian suddenly exclaimed again.

"No, brother, look, most Mingjuns are wearing shawls!"

"Silver shirt?!" Li Yan's expression suddenly condensed. The silk shirt is not something you can wear casually. You have to be famous! Could it be that the Ming army opposite is actually a scholar camp?

But that's not right. The Shiziying has long become a climate.

The more than 6,000 scholars who were ordered to serve the king under the Chongzhen edict, each of them became generals or officials of the Internal Affairs Office. Now they have become backbone of the Ming court, so how could they be here?

What's more, there are not as many scholars in the Scholar camp as there are as many as 10,000.

Li Mou made a new discovery again: "Brother, this Ming army did not carry any supplies, not even a carriage, and the one on its back didn't seem to be a bun, but it looked like bedding."

Li Yan's brows were twisted into a knot, and this Ming army was strange.

Li Nian said, "Brother, don't worry about so much, let's kill them."
