Chapter 210 Ambush from Shang Kexi for the Moon
Tian Jianxiu nodded gently.
He followed Li Zicheng for many years, and he could understand the intention with a look on the other party.
Taking a deep breath, he led a part of the cavalry to forcibly attack Wu Sangui's commanding flag. Although the speed was not fast, it fully attracted Wu Sangui's attention.
Wu Sangui is also a veteran of all battles. He knows very well that Li Zicheng wanted to attack the central army to cause his overall formation to change. He immediately ordered his personal soldiers to step forward to intercept them.
His personal soldiers were equipped with heavy black iron armor, and even the mounts under his crotch were covered with armor. This means that ordinary swords and guns could not cause substantial damage to them. Even if they were slightly injured, they would not lose their combat effectiveness.
After Wu Sangui's personal soldiers joined the battle, Tian Jianxiu's advance came to an abrupt end. Due to the numerical advantage, the Shun Army cavalry, which was trapped in the "quagmire", gradually became unfavorable to be attacked from both sides.
Li Zicheng led his personal guards to rush back and forth several times but could not completely break through the Qing army's iron barrel formation. He knew very well that it would be impossible for him to break through after the Qing army completely tied his pockets.
Li Zicheng looked back at the women and children in the old camp and ordered the entire army to break through.
He once again chose to abandon the old camp, just like when Tongguan was defeated and rushed towards Shangluo.
At this time, the old camp is a burden. Since everyone has to die after staying, it is better to fight to kill and leave the seeds of hope.
Li Zicheng no longer hesitated, clamped his legs and roared, chopping the few riders around him into the basic space for impact, and then turned the horse's head and rushed forward.
"All follow your Majesty!"
Li Zicheng's personal guards roared loudly, like a group of wild wolves following the wolf king.
Even if they die while standing, don’t kneel down and beg for life!
Wu Sangui frowned and felt something was wrong.
Li Zicheng's charge this time is very different from the one before, with a hint of determination.
Wu Sangui did not dare to be careless and condemned the main force to shrink its defense.
He firmly believed that although Li Zicheng was fierce, as long as he set up a fence, these hungry wolves would not be able to make up the sky.
This time he will never give in!
Not far away, the Tianzhu Army led by Shang Kexi was stationed on Xiaogang.
To be precise, this is an artillery squad.
Of course, the red-clothed cannon weighing thousands of pounds could not be brought up the mountain. However, Shang Kexi still ordered the army to carry some three-pound cannons imitated from the Folang Jiren.
These three-pound cannons are very light and weigh only a few hundred pounds. It won’t be too laborious to carry around you, but they can give the enemy a fatal blow at critical moments.
For example, the present.
Shang Kexi had already seen Li Zicheng's idea. He wanted to abandon the old camp and strive to break through.
People often burst out with amazing energy in desperate situations. Li Zifeng is not a wine bag, and he will try his best to get the last bit of energy.
Although Wu Sangui's vassal soldiers were also very strong, killing Li Zicheng was at most a great achievement, which was completely incomparable to Li Zicheng's demand for breaking through and surviving.
Shang Kexi felt that Li Zicheng could probably break through Wu Sangui's siege and lead his personal guards to fight for a bloody path.
Shang Kexi was not in a hurry to order his subordinates to take action.
He had to wait for Li Zicheng to break through the siege of Wu Sangui's troops, and only by seizing that opportunity and credit would belong to him.
If he now ordered someone to bombard Li Zicheng and accidentally injured Wu Sangui's vassal soldiers, the most important thing is that Wu Sangui might have been separated by a lot of the credit. This is something Shang Kexi didn't want to see.
He wants to take this credit exclusively!
......
......
"Hahahaha, Wu Sangui's Guanning Army is just like this!"
After a desperate battle, Li Zicheng led his army to break through successfully.
The Guanning Army, covered in armor, did not stop the Shun Army, and could only watch the Shun Army rush out of the gap.
Wu Sangui was so angry that his teeth itched, but he was helpless.
If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, if you can't stop it, you can't stop it.
If you are not as skilled as others, you can do nothing.
However, he knew that Li Zicheng could not escape at all. After passing this level, Shang Kexi was still ambushing on Xiaogang. Those artillery were not vegetarians, and they could definitely knock the Shun Army into scum after a bombardment.
It’s a pity that the credit for capturing Li Zicheng alive could not fall into Wu Sangui’s hands, and the only thing that was carried to Ajige was Li Zicheng’s body.
But even so, it is better than letting Li Zicheng go again.
With Li Zicheng's prestige and strength, if he escapes, he will not be able to pull up a large army again.
If you let the tiger return to the mountain, there will be endless troubles.
......
......
"Look, Prince, Li Chuang is here!"
Shang Kexi's personal soldier Sun He said happily.
Shang Kexi looked closely with the flames and saw a team of cavalry coming.
Standing on the hills, you can see everything clearly, and Shang Kexi can even tell that Li Zicheng is rushing to the front wearing a cloak.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Wu Sangui, the waste, did not disappoint him, and he really couldn't stop Li Zicheng.
Since he gave a big gift to him, Shang Kexi naturally would not be polite.
"I will pass on the orders of the king and prepare to fire the cannon!"
The absolute power of the three-pound cannon is far less than that of the red-clothed cannon and does not play a role in siege. However, it is more than enough to deal with cavalrymen.
Shang Kexi didn't believe that Li Zicheng could be safe and sound when facing a round of intensive shelling.
However, the heavy responsibility is on his shoulders, and the artillery under Shang Kexi is still a little nervous.
They carefully completed the series of preparations before firing the gunpowder until the moment they ignited the gunpowder.
After all, using muskets and cannons is not the strength of the Tianzhu Army. Compared with Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming's Tianyou Army is more proficient in this.
But things were progressing smoother than they thought. They threw a lead bullet out of nothing and smashed straight towards the Shun Army cavalry who were breaking through.
The three-pound cannon imitated by the Qing army used solid lead bullets like the original Fran machine cannon. It will not explode and cause secondary damage, but it may jump to form a jump, and its power cannot be underestimated.
Especially when firing fire from the hills, both the angle and speed of the lead bullet are extremely perfect.
Li Zicheng, who was running wildly, was completely unaware of the danger. A lead bullet whizzed past his mount and smashed on a guard.
Li Zicheng clearly saw the lead bullet piercing through the guard's chest, leaving a big hole. The guard died immediately and didn't even have time to make a scream.
More and more lead bullets were smashed, and the guards around Li Zicheng fell one by one. Li Zicheng dodged left and right but was hit by a second-hop lead bullet and rolled off the back.
Li Zicheng rolled three times, and after he finally stood up and looked around, he found that there were broken limbs and broken arms everywhere.
This death is so terrible!
what to do?
He never thought that the end of his journey was in Jiugong Mountain.
Are you really going to die here today?
