Chapter 39 Cavalry Showdown

Chapter 39 Cavalry Showdown

The outskirts of Xizhimen.

The war is still going on, but the shouts of killing are obviously much weaker.

The Red Lady's 50,000-strong army took advantage of the situation and defeated Li Zicheng's 100,000-strong army. They retreated steadily and even began to collapse on a large scale.

But at this time, Liu Zongmin and Li Guo arrived with their army, and the battle began to reverse.

And when Liu Fangliang also led his army to fight from the north, hundreds of thousands of people completely surrounded the Red Lady's men and began to strangle them.

"Sister Hong, break out of the encirclement. If we continue to fight, our brothers will all be responsible here today."

"Commander, please keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. Order a breakout quickly!"

"Commander, if all the brothers are here today, there will be no one to avenge my uncle!"

It was already getting dark at this moment.

The general outline of the battlefield can already be seen clearly. There are only nearly 10,000 elite veterans left to support the Red Lady, surrounded by densely packed enemies.

If the scene had not been too chaotic, everyone would have known that these more than 10,000 people had become trapped beasts, and they were all elites. They did not dare to rush and kill them easily, otherwise they would never be able to survive until dawn.

"Walk!"

"Brothers, follow me and fight out towards the west!"

Perhaps the last sentence stimulated the red lady, and she finally calmed down, looked up, and gave the order to break out with a face full of reluctance.

"kill!"

At one time, more than 10,000 people, driven by the desire to survive, immediately started slashing and killing crazily towards the west.

Most of the bandits fought for half the night and didn't know what was going on, so they hardly tried their best. Now that the red lady and her men were trying to escape, the bandits to the west were even more reluctant to fight.

After all, the remaining more than 10,000 people are not easy to mess with at first glance.

Almost everyone has armor and has become a desperado. If you want to kill him head-on, you will definitely have to trade your life for one.

So the red lady and her men broke through the encirclement easily and encountered almost no obstruction.

However, after breaking through, there were countless men and horses behind them, shouting and killing, which was ridiculous.



"Uncle, are you okay?"

"Brother, are you okay? How did it happen?"

"It's okay. It's just a minor injury. It's still not dead. Have you killed the red lady?"

At this time, Li Zicheng's head had been wrapped in a white cloth, and with his messy face and stains all over his body, he was almost unrecognizable.

"Don't worry, brother, although she escaped, there are only nearly ten thousand people left with her, and the brothers have already caught up with her...

Brother, I told you a long time ago that he and his wife are not trustworthy, but you just don’t listen. Now look?

If Li Guo and I hadn't arrived in time last night, the consequences would have been unimaginable..."

Liu Zongmin chattered there endlessly.

Li Guo asked with a stern face: "Uncle, what on earth is going on?"

"Why did the Red Commander rebel?"

"Where's Commander Li?"

“We’ll talk about this later!”

"Those who ran away with that bitch must be her confidants. If we don't get rid of them today, there will be endless troubles in the future. Later, you go back to the camp quickly, gather the cavalry to catch up, and be sure to kill them all!"

Li Zicheng waved his hands impatiently, and then ordered Li Guo through gritted teeth.

If that bitch hadn't taken Li Yan's safety into consideration last night and didn't take action as soon as she arrived, giving him some time to prepare, otherwise she might have fallen into the hands of that bitch, and she would have wanted to tear her into pieces at this moment.

.

"yes!"

Although Li Guo was hesitant and wanted to ask clearly, seeing his uncle's sharp eyes, he had no choice but to answer, then got on his horse and hurried away.

After Li Guo left, everyone looked at the devastated camp, with corpses and body parts scattered everywhere, and they all remained silent.

Li Zicheng's face was also gloomy and almost dripping with water.

As soon as everyone walked into the big tent that had been packed out, they immediately rushed over on horseback, turned over and rushed into the big tent.

"Report, Your Majesty, a large group of cavalry has appeared in the north. According to our camp, it is less than thirty miles away."

"What?"

Everyone was shocked.

King Chuang immediately stood up and asked anxiously: "How many riders are there?"

"It's overwhelming, no less than tens of thousands!" the spy replied nervously.

"Could it be the Tatars? Are the Tatars really coming?"

Everyone became nervous when they heard that there were no less than tens of thousands of riders.

"Back to your Majesty, the flag seems to be the flag of the Ming Army."

"Your Majesty, it should be Wu Sangui's Guan Ning cavalry, don't be careless." Niu Jinxing quickly reminded.

But where does King Chuang need his reminder?

At this moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knew better than Niu Jinxing that for the cavalry, thirty miles could be reached in an instant.

And they fought all night long, and the hundreds of thousands of troops were not only exhausted, but also in such a chaotic state that they didn't know the generals.

"Quickly, rush to the south camp and send an order to Li Guo to immediately lead his cavalry to intercept the enemy cavalry in the north."

"Call the entire army to prepare to meet the enemy!"

All the generals also knew that the situation was critical, so they rushed out of the tent and went to gather their troops to fight.

For a time, the sound of drums, horns and shouts resounded throughout the camp.

At this moment, most of the hundreds of thousands of people were sitting on the ground. Some were dozing off, some were chasing the red lady, and others were carrying corpses and cleaning the battlefield.

As the enemy attack alarm sounded, everyone stood up in shock.

The veterans began to call for the new recruits, and the new recruits looked around for their heads, and their heads looked for the generals. The whole camp was almost in chaos.

Thirty miles away, 20,000 Guan Ning's cavalry were all armored, mounted, and ready, and were lining up.

I saw that the cavalry team, which was originally very scattered, began to become neat and orderly with the long sound of the horn, and finally turned into a huge cavalry phalanx five miles wide and one mile deep.

woo woo woo woo…

"March!"

Following Wu Sangui's order, the first row of cavalry began to move forward slowly.

Then the second row, then the third row, until the whole team starts to move forward.

As the sound of the horn continued to become louder and louder, the speed of the entire team became faster and faster, until the final rumble of horses' hooves overshadowed everything else, and the earth trembled slightly.

Although the entire square array is no longer as neat as it was at the beginning, it still maintains clear layers and orderly intervals.

When the cavalry's speed increased completely, they were less than ten miles away from the invader's camp in a matter of seconds.

The rumble of horse hooves could be heard clearly both in Beijing and in the army camp.

"Commander, thief cavalry!"

"Hmph! A mantis trying to block a car is overestimating his own abilities!"

Looking at the oncoming cavalry team, Wu Sangui snorted disdainfully.

The intruder had a cavalry force of ten thousand people, and he knew exactly how effective it was. He had already expected that the other party would send cavalry to intercept them, so there was no surprise at all.

With a clang, he drew out his half-foot-long saber, pointed forward, and shouted: "Kill!"

Woo woo woo...

Immediately afterwards, a more rapid sound of horns came from around Wu Sangui, and almost everyone drew their sabers at this moment.

Rumble…

The entire cavalry team also changed slightly. The middle began to protrude forward faster, and finally turned into a wild goose cone shape.

Although the 10,000 cavalrymen of the Chuang Army were carefully built, the quality of the horses varied, and there was a lack of systematic training. They could not change formations like this while running at high speed, and they could not even maintain the formation. They just rushed the horses blindly.

"kill!"

Although Li Guo was a little shocked by the strength of the opponent's cavalry, he also knew that they had no way out and had to block or even entangle the opponent, otherwise the hundreds of thousands of troops would collapse, so he also shouted loudly and drew his sword towards them.

"kill…"

Almost all of these ten thousand people were carefully selected warriors, and they did not lack bloody courage. They drew their swords and shouted for courage.

If it had not been dark last night and the cavalry could not be dispatched, Li Guo only brought infantry to help. The 50,000 people of the Red Lady would have been wiped out long ago.

A cavalry charge like this is the most brutal, and almost no one would choose it unless it was a last resort.

Even the Mongolian Tatars and the Eight Banners Cavalry generally use stray shooting as their main tactics and would not choose to go on such a rampage.

But tens of thousands of cavalry confronting each other like this are rare in history.

boom!

I saw the cavalry teams from both sides colliding together like two high-speed torrents.

In an instant, the person who hit him was knocked upside down, and blood mist continued to fly.

Then the cavalry from both sides continued to cross each other in depth, and more and more people fell down, trampled by the horses, and they didn't even have time to scream.

At this time, the battle is all about horsemanship, armor, and reaction. Life and death often only happen in the blink of an eye.

The two sides also decided the winner in a short period of time.

After Li Guo came out of the formation covered in blood, he reined in his horse. He looked around and found that there were less than a thousand people on his horse.

However, the torrent of cavalry from the other side continued unabated and ran directly towards the camp, not caring about them at all.

Li Guo was horrified and his face turned gray.

In just one round, the nearly 10,000 cavalry that the rebels were proud of were directly crushed by the opponent, completely losing their ability to fight again.

The opponent's cavalry losses will never exceed 3,000.

The intruder cavalry who had narrowly escaped death felt chills running down their spines as they looked at the battlefield that was like Shura hell. After gathering around Li Guo, they looked at the enemy cavalry retreating in the distance, wondering what to do.

Li Guo also lacked the courage to catch up again.
