154, Li Zicheng's army pressed the border, and Zhu Cilong raided the top of the mountain

Three days passed in a flash.

During these three days, both sides were raising their strength and preparing for the war with all their might.

Zhu Ciyang received another letter from Chongzhen, in which he asked Zhu Ciyang whether he needed the British Duke to draw some troops to go south to support him.

In response to this, Zhu Cilang naturally stroked his pen: "No need!"

Li Guozhen was a little confused: "Your Highness, our troops should be more and more."

Zhu Cilang smiled and shook his head: "No, the British Duke is the real one that is better."

As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

As a systematic man, Zhu Cilang naturally assumes the greatest responsibility.

The British Duke faced Dorgon, who was the actual ruler of the Qing Dynasty when it entered the pass in history. The reason why the Qing Dynasty was able to successfully conquer the entire Ming Dynasty was definitely a great contribution.

Although the British Duke was loyal, it still had to be a big question whether this ability to fight could be comparable to Dorgon.

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

Li Guozhen looked at Zhu Cilang and admired him, feeling that the image of His Royal Highness became much more majestic in his heart.

At this moment, Fang Gongqian, who was standing beside him, suddenly spoke: "Even if the British Duke dispatched troops and generals to the south at this time, the decisive battle would have been finalized, and it would be futile."

Zhu Cilang glared at Fang Gongqian: "You talk too much, go there!"

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

In short, the moment of this day's decisive battle has arrived.

Early in the morning, all the soldiers on both sides finished their breakfast and then went out to camp and city to line up.

The Ming army led by Zhu Cilang had a total of 50,000, and he had to face a soldier who was known as 300,000, but in fact, it should be around 100,000.

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

In just a few months, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army increased rapidly with the victory of one after another. Coupled with the large number of supplements from prisoners and the Ming army in the south, it was no longer as embarrassing as when the capital was surrounded.

Li Guozhen looked at the Dashun Army opposite, and the crowd was surging. The crowd was endless. He couldn't help feeling a little guilty and asked Zhu Cixuan: "Your Highness, how do we fight this time?"

Zhu Cilang narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Wait."

The system has not triggered the check-in yet, and it seems that the distance is not enough.

"Ah?" Li Guozhen was stunned.

No, everyone has already set up a formation, and the war is about to start, so what are you waiting for?

Li Guozhen wanted to complain about something, but he finally chose to wait patiently.

On the opposite side, Li Zicheng was also a little surprised: "Ming Jun was motionless?"

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

Li Zicheng snorted and said, "This kid Zhu Cixuan is indeed a conspiracy. Let's do this. The city must be more vigilant after I attack. Don't wait until I attack, Zhu Cixuan sneaks into Yongnian City."

Li Zicheng was sneak attacked by Zhu Cilang, and the battle in Gu'an was lost because of this, and there was some shadow in his heart.

A minister worried, "If this is the case, we will lack some of the troops on the front. Will it affect the frontal situation?"

Li Zicheng said angrily: "If the old nest is stolen, it will all collapse. What are the front and back? OK, stop talking nonsense. Since Zhu Cixuan does not attack, then I will attack. Pass the order and beat the drums, and the vanguard army will fight!"

Fifteen years ago, when Li Zicheng followed the King of Breaking King Gao Yingxiang to rebel, the so-called uprising army was just a group of peasants who could not survive. However, the Dashun Army has long transformed into a regular army, and the sound of flags and drums are still accurate, even after several defeats.

Amid the rumbling drums, the vanguard of the Dashun Army began to dispatch and came from the front to oppress the Ming army.

Seeing this situation, Li Guozhen couldn't help but feel a little anxious and hurriedly said to Zhu Cixuan: "Your Highness, we have to think of a solution as soon as possible."

Zhu Cilang nodded, stared at Li Zicheng's troops 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 say, "What about?"

Zhu Cixuan glared at Li Guozhen: "Then wait."

Li Guozhen: "..."

What are you waiting for? What are you waiting for when the enemy rushed over?

Finally, the system's voice sounded in Zhu Cilang's mind: "The sign-in is completed, the sign-in task is activated. Please lead 20,000 troops to the Dashun Army camp on the mountain outside the city within one hour."

Zhu Cixuan waited for a few seconds and couldn't help asking, "There is no buff or something?"

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

Zhu Cilang shrugged, OK.

Zhu Cilang turned his head and said to Li Guozhen: "Your Majesty Xiangcheng, I have already figured out a combat plan."

This sentence was so pleasant to Li Guozhen. He hurriedly said, "Please ask His Highness the Crown Prince to come quickly!"

Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "In this way, we will divide our troops into two groups. You will lead 30,000 people to resist Li Zicheng's attack on the front. I will take 20,000 people to attack Li Zicheng's camp on the mountain outside the city, and then attack you on both sides. This time you will definitely win!"

Li Guozhen stopped and couldn't speak for a moment.

After a while, Li Guozhen said with a giggle and laughter: "Your Highness, the camp on their mountain has not sent troops at all! We still have to distribute about half of the troops to attack that camp. Is this appropriate?"

Li Guozhen generally doesn't talk back to Zhu Cilang, but this time he really can't calm down.

The main force of Li Zicheng's Dashun Army came from the front, but the camp outside the city had no movement. At this time, half of the troops had to be drawn to attack the camp. This behavior was very stupid no matter how you look at it.

Moreover, after the troops are drawn, 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 is to say, Zhu Cixuan, Li Guozhen had already started to curse after another person made such a decision that seemed completely contrary to common sense.

Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "It's okay, believe me."

In fact, Zhu Cilang believes in the system very much.

Li Guozhen: "..."

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Zhu Cixuan said, "There is no time left. I will leave. Xiangcheng Bo, please hold on."

After saying that, Zhu Cilang hurriedly left.

Li Guozhen: “…………”

A general beside Li Guozhen asked, "Xiangcheng Bo, what should we do now?"

Li Guozhen breathed a sigh of relief and said viciously: "What else can I do? If you pass the order, the archers and musket soldiers will fire immediately, and the other troops will prepare to face the enemy in close combat!"

At this point, Li Guozhen had to bite the bullet and take it.

With the sound of banging muskets and the sound of leaping crossbows, the final battle officially kicked off.

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

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

In the sword light and sabers, blood splattered everywhere, and all kinds of strange human organs flew around on the battlefield, and their lives quickly disappeared like grass.

"Kill the Ming Dog!"

"Punish the rebels!"

Amid the shouts of the generals and officials on both sides, two completely different armies collided with each other like a tide, splashing countless blood-colored waves.

Li Zicheng held his hands in front of him, staring at the battlefield in the distance, listening to the latest reports from the front line.

"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 resumed its stalemate."

"Your Majesty, our army's front line is a little shaken. The general on the front line requested reinforcements, otherwise he would be unable to resist."

When Li Zicheng heard this, his face turned gloomy and he snorted: "What a bunch of useless waste!"

No matter how much he scolds, Li Zicheng also knows his own affairs. Currently, most of the Dashun Army are new recruits, and their combat effectiveness is just that. It is rare to be able to stand stalemate with the Ming army until now that it has begun to fall into a disadvantage.

According to experience, it will take at least about an hour from falling into a disadvantage to the collapse of the entire line.

This time is enough for Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go and pass the orders to Li Guo and He Jin on the mountain, so that they can attack immediately and attack the flanks of the Ming army!"

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 know their shame and defeat the Ming army's defense line.

Li Zicheng's order was immediately transmitted to the mountain as fast as possible.

Li couldn't hold back too long, and he heard this and was overjoyed and smiled, "General He Jin, our opportunity is here, let's get there!"

He Jin nodded, and was about to say something, but suddenly exclaimed and pointed, "Your Highness, you see, the Ming army actually wants to come and attack us."

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

Li Guo smiled and said, "It seems that the prince's prince is thinking of going with His Majesty."

He Jin said: "Or we should guard the camp first. With the camp's defense and territoriality, we should be able to easily defeat their offensive."
