Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 154 Chapter 154, Li Zicheng's soldiers suppressed the situation, Zhu Cihong raided the mountain
Three days passed in a flash.

During these three days, both sides have recharged their batteries and prepared for war with all their might.

Zhu Cihong received another letter from Chongzhen, in which he asked whether Zhu Cihuang needed the British government to send some troops to the south for support.

In this regard, Zhu Cihong naturally waved his pen: "No need!"

Li Guozhen was a little puzzled: "Your Highness, the more soldiers and horses under our command, the better."

Zhu Cilang shook her head with a smile: "No, the more the more the better."

As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility.

As a systematic man, Zhu Cihong naturally assumed the greatest responsibility.

What the British Duke faced was Dorgon, who was the actual ruler when the Manchu Qing entered the customs in history. The reason why the Manchu Qing was able to successfully conquer the entire Ming Dynasty was definitely due to this man.

Although the British Duke is loyal, it is still a big question mark whether his combat ability can match Dorgon's.

Therefore, it is better to give the British public more troops and let the palace take more responsibilities!

Li Guozhen looked at Zhu Cihong with admiration in his heart, and felt that the image of His Highness the Crown Prince was much more powerful in his heart.

At this moment, Fang Gongqian on the side suddenly said: "Even if the British Duke dispatches troops to the south at this time, the decisive battle has already been concluded, and it will be futile."

Zhu Cihong glared at Fang Gong and said, "You're the one who talks too much, go away!"

The image of the prince that had just been established in Li Guozhen's heart suddenly collapsed slightly.

All in all, the day of the decisive battle has come.

Early in the morning, all the soldiers and horses on both sides had finished their breakfast, and then went out of the camp/city to form an array.

The Ming army led by Zhu Cihong totaled 30, and what he had to face was Li Zicheng's so-called [-] soldiers, but in fact it should be around [-].

Zhu Cihong was full of confidence. He looked around at the nearby Ming army phalanx, and found that these Ming army soldiers were also full of morale and full of energy.

In just a few months, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army increased rapidly with victories after vicious battles, coupled with a large number of supplements from the captives and the Ming army from the south, it has long been inferior to when the capital was besieged when there were no soldiers available. Embarrassed.

Li Guozhen looked at the Dashun Army on the opposite side, who were also waving their banners, and the crowd was so turbulent that it was boundless. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and asked Zhu Cihong, "Your Highness, how will we fight this battle?"

Zhu Cihong narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Wait."

The system hasn't triggered the sign-in yet, it seems that the distance is not enough.

"Ah?" Li Guozhen was dumbfounded.

No, everyone has already set out to form a camp, and the battle is about to start, so what are you waiting for?
Li Guozhen really wanted to complain about something, but he finally chose to wait patiently.

On the opposite side, Li Zicheng was also a little surprised: "The Ming army didn't move at all?"

Someone next to him said: "Your Majesty, are these Ming soldiers engaged in some kind of conspiracy?"

Li Zicheng snorted, and said: "Zhu Cihong is indeed a plot material. How about this, we must strengthen the vigilance around the city, don't wait until after I attack, Zhu Cihong surprises Yongnian City."

Li Zicheng was attacked by Zhu Cihong, and he lost the battle of Gu'an because of this, so he felt somewhat shadowy.

A minister worried: "If this is the case, our frontal forces will be short again. Will it affect the frontal battle situation?"

Li Zicheng said angrily: "If the old nest is stolen, it will all collapse. What is the pros and cons? Okay, stop talking nonsense. Since Zhu Cihong doesn't attack, then I will attack. Pass the order and beat the drums." , the vanguard goes to battle!"

When Li Zicheng rebelled with Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang 15 years ago, the so-called rebel army was just a group of peasants who could not survive, but now the Dashun Army has already transformed into a regular army. Things are still in order, even after a few defeats.

With the sound of rumbling drums, the vanguard of the Dashun Army began to move out, pressing towards the Ming Army from the front.

Seeing this situation, Li Guozhen couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and hurriedly said to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness, we have to find a way quickly."

Zhu Cihong hummed, fixed his eyes on Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses in front of him, and said slowly: "Let the troops prepare for the battle."

Li Guozhen waited for a while, and couldn't help but said: "And then?"

Zhu Cihong glared at Li Guozhen: "Then just wait."

Li Guozhen: "..."

What are you waiting for? The enemy has rushed over, what are you waiting for?
Finally, the voice of the system sounded in Zhu Cihuang's mind: "The check-in is complete, the check-in task is activated, please lead the host to lead [-] troops to the Dashun army camp on the mountain outside the city within an hour."

Zhu Cihong waited for a few seconds, and couldn't help asking: "Is there any buff?"

The old-fashioned voice of the system sounded: "After the system evaluation, the host already has enough ability to complete this task. In order to help the host grow faster, this check-in will not provide any help."

Zhu Cihong shrugged his shoulders, okay.

Zhu Cihong turned his head and said to Li Guozhen, "Uncle Xiangcheng, I have already thought up a battle plan."

This sentence was so pleasant to Li Guozhen, he hurriedly said: "Please come quickly, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Zhu Cihong chuckled, and said, "Well, let's divide our troops into two groups. You lead 3 people to withstand Li Zicheng's attack from the front, and Ben Gong leads 2 people to attack Li Zicheng's camp on the mountain outside the city, and then fight against Li Zicheng. If you attack from both sides, you will definitely win this time!"

Li Guozhen stopped immediately, speechless for a moment.

After a while, Li Guozhen said dumbfoundedly: "Your Highness, the big camp on the mountain didn't send troops at all! We have to allocate almost half of our troops to attack that big camp. Is this appropriate?"

Li Guozhen usually wouldn't talk back to Zhu Cihong, but this time he really couldn't calm down.

The main force of Li Zicheng's Dashun army was coming from the front, but the camp outside the city was silent. At this time, it was very stupid to deploy half of the troops to attack the camp.

Moreover, after the deployment of troops, the frontal defense force will be weakened a lot, and Li Zicheng's main force may be able to complete a breakthrough and win a victory.

That's Zhu Cihong. If someone else made such a decision that seemed to completely violate common sense, Li Guozhen would have already yelled at him.

Zhu Cihong smiled and said, "It's okay, you trust me."

In fact, Zhu Cihong really believed in the system.

Li Guozhen: "..."

The two looked at each other for a moment, Zhu Cihong said: "There is no time, I'm gone, Uncle Xiangcheng, hold on."

After speaking, Zhu Cihong left in a hurry.

Li Guozhen: "..."

Beside Li Guozhen, a general asked, "Uncle Xiangcheng, what should we do now?"

Li Guozhen let out a breath, and said viciously: "What else can we do? Pass the order, and the archers and firecrackers will launch immediately, and the other troops are ready to meet the enemy in close combat!"

Now that things have happened, Li Guozhen can only bite the bullet and stand on top.

Accompanied by the sound of bang bang fire and the sound of swishing bow and crossbow leaping, this decisive battle officially kicked off.

Both sides came prepared, so the battle was fierce from the very beginning.

After a brief long-range mutual shooting, hand-to-hand combat became the main theme.

In the shadow of swords and swords, blood splattered everywhere, all kinds of strange human organs flew around on the battlefield, and lives disappeared as quickly as grass.

"Kill the dog!"

"Punish the traitors!"

Amidst the hoarse shouts of the generals on both sides, the two completely different armies collided with each other fiercely like a tide, splashing countless bloody waves.

Li Zicheng folded his arms in front of his chest, watching the distant battlefield, listening to the latest report from the front.

"Your Majesty, our army is in a stalemate with the Ming army!"

"Your Majesty, our army has made some progress."

"Your Majesty, our army was counterattacked by the Ming army, and the front line has returned to a stalemate."

"Your Majesty, the front line of our army is a bit shaken. The front-line generals are asking for reinforcements. Otherwise, I'm afraid they won't be able to resist."

Hearing this, Li Zicheng's expression turned gloomy, and he snorted, "What a bunch of useless trash!"

It's all about scolding, but Li Zicheng's own family knows about his own affairs. Right now, the Dashun army is indeed mostly recruits, and its combat effectiveness is nothing. something happened.

According to experience, it takes at least an hour or so from falling into a disadvantage to collapsing across the board.

This time is enough for Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Quickly pass an order to Li Guo and He Jin on the mountain to attack the Ming army's flank!"

This time, Li Zicheng had handed over most of the elites who could fight to Li Guo and He Jin. He believed that these two generals would be able to face their shame and be brave enough to defeat the defense line of the Ming army.

Li Zicheng's order was immediately transmitted to the mountain with the fastest speed.

Li Guoqian couldn't hold back anymore, he was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "General He Jin, our chance has come, let's go!"

He Jin nodded, and was about to say something when suddenly he let out a snort, stretched out his finger and said, "Look, Your Highness, the Ming army also wants to sneak attack us."

Li Guo was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction of He Jin's finger, and he saw a Ming army rushing towards the camp on the mountain, billowing in smoke and dust.

Li Guo said with a smile: "It seems that His Royal Highness and His Majesty thought of going together."

He Jin said: "Otherwise, let's defend the big camp first. With the defensive location of the big camp, we should be able to easily defeat their offensive."

Li Guo pondered for a moment, then flatly denied: "No, His Majesty is still waiting for the news of our victory. If we defend here, what will His Majesty do? Anyway, it is impossible for the Ming army to invest real elites in this direction. What is there to be afraid of? Send the order, and the whole army will be dispatched immediately to defeat the Ming army outside!"
