Niu Jinxing looked at Li Zicheng in front of him with a wry smile on his face and said.
"How many???"
Li Zicheng looked at Niu Jinxing in front of him with an expression of disbelief.
"More than 27,000 people. Of course, these people are elites..."
Niu Jinxing quickly said to Li Zicheng in front of him.
"In other words, we lost more than 40,000 people in this battle..."
Li Zicheng murmured to Niu Jinxing in front of him.
At this time, Niu Jinxing in front of him said to Li Zicheng in front of him: "Your Majesty, it can't be calculated like this. In fact, many of us were scattered when the cavalry on the opposite side attacked us. In fact, many of us haven't caught up yet and scattered separately.
Well, many of the people around us now are cavalry.
If we wait a little longer, we can gather more troops. Although there will be losses, we should be able to control the casualties to less than 20,000..."
Hearing Niu Jinxing's words, Li Zicheng sighed with a flash in his eyes, looked at Niu Jinxing in front of him and said: "More than 20,000, is already a large number! Among them, there are many of our elites!
In this battle, we were careless. We all thought that we were able to capture the officers and soldiers. Unexpectedly, that guy Huang Degong, who didn't know when, actually lurked in the nearby mountains and forests, and actually attacked our Chinese army!
Before we could react, they actually cut off the flag of our Chinese army!"
As he spoke, Li Zicheng showed a wry smile in his eyes.
Niu Jinxing quickly comforted Li Zicheng in front of him: "Your Majesty, it's okay to relax. Although the Ming Prince won a big victory this time, Huang Degong's elite strength is only 20,000 to 30,000, so he can't make any big waves.
, with such a small number of people and such an elite force, it is difficult to replenish them.
We just need to consume them slowly, they are definitely no match for us!"
Niu Jinxing said to Li Zicheng in front of him.
"I hope so!"
Li Zicheng's eyes flashed with emotion.
"Niu Xiangguo, let us know and collect the defeated troops! Try to reduce losses as much as possible!"
Just when Li Zicheng gathered his defeated troops.
On the other side, the troops who had been chasing for a while also gathered back.
The battlefield has basically been cleaned up.
"General!"
General Liu Shen looked at Huang Degong beside him with an excited look on his face.
At this time, Lin Yi next to him also looked at General Huang Degong in front of him with excitement on his face.
"General!"
"You guys did a great job!"
General Huang Degong said with a smile on his face, smiling at Ji Yi and General Liu Shen in front of him.
General Liu Shen and Lin Yi suddenly smiled when they heard General Huang Degong's words.
At this time, a staff officer hurried over from the side, looked at General Huang Degong in front of him and said: "General, the damage ratio of this battle has been calculated!"
General Huang Degong nodded.
"How about it?"
"About a thousand of us died, and then more than 23,000 enemy troops were beheaded! The rest of them basically fled!"
"good!"
General Huang Degong had a smile on his face.
"Immediately report this news to the imperial court and His Highness the Crown Prince eight hundred miles away!"
"Yes! General!"
General Huang Degong smiled.
"Others, let's go to the city first!"
With that said, General Huang Degong entered the city with Lin Yi and General Liu beside him.
Linzhang City was not destroyed after all.
The battle report under Linzhang City reached Huaiqing Mansion at ten minutes in the middle of the night.
In Huaiqing Mansion, Zhu Cixiang, who couldn't sleep, got the news.
"Well done! Well done!"
Zhu Cihong had an excited look on his face.
"We won! And we won beautifully! After fighting this battle, at least we have severely dampened the spirit of the intruders. At least in a short period of time, the imperial court is no longer threatened with destruction!"
Zhu Cixi let out a long breath, his eyes full of smiles.
This news made him, who had always been worried about the rapid demise of the Ming Dynasty, finally alleviate a little. The worry in his heart, at least there is no need to worry, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed in a short time!
The original history finally took a slight deflection in this place!
Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly.
When his father completely moved the capital, he would lead his army and start stationing troops in Shandong!
Wait for the right time!
Wait for the opportunity to accumulate enough strength to swallow up the world and wipe out the world!
With this thought in mind, Zhu Cixiang slowly fell asleep.
The news of the battle in Linzhang City soon spread to the capital and the imperial court.
The next day, at night, Emperor Chongzhen was having dinner.
"Report!!! Eight hundred miles urgent! Urgent military information!!!"
When the news reached the capital, Emperor Chongzhen, who was having a meal, immediately put down his job and soon received the urgent military intelligence report.
"On April 6th, General Huang Degong used His Highness the Prince's plan to lead an army of 10,000 to cut off the banners of the intruders at the foot of Linzhang City! The intruders were defeated and more than 23,000 of them were beheaded!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Emperor Chongzhen said three good words in a row, and his face was full of excitement.
For several days in a row, he had been hearing good news from the front line. Since the prince's personal expedition, the news he had heard was getting better and better.
Although I was still a little worried at the beginning, maybe my subordinates deliberately reported good results in order to cover up the problems of His Highness the Crown Prince.
But some of the news that came later clearly proved that His Highness the Crown Prince is really doing a very good job!
The results are all true!
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen showed an excited look on his face, and his eyes also flickered a little.
Is there no need to move the capital anymore?
Since the front line is fighting so well, there seems to be no need to move the capital!
After all, there is no reason why you need to retreat after fighting?
The battle situation on the front line was also quickly known to the entire city of Beijing.
Everyone's faces showed excitement.
It seems that Daming’s life should not be cut off!
But there were also people who sighed.
For example, Li Banghua.
"Sir Li, you should be happy that the situation on the front line is so good. You, a pavilion elder, are sighing like this every day!"
Ni Yuanlu on the side looked at Li Banghua in front of her with a smile on her face and said.
Hearing Ni Yuanlu's words, a wry smile flashed in Li Banghua's eyes. He looked at Ni Yuanlu in front of him and said: "Master Ni doesn't know something. The front line is fighting well. Of course, for us, it is not a bad opinion from any angle.
However, I feel that with the frontline fighting so well, His Majesty may choose not to move south... This is what I am most worried about!"
"What are you afraid of? We have already completed most of the work of moving south, and all the money has been spent! Your Majesty wants to regret it now, but it is too late!"
Ni Yuanlu smiled and said to Li Banghua in front of her.
