Chapter 432
The wind howled, and Li Zicheng's face was full of depression. Looking at the 1-strong army who had escaped in front of him, he no longer had the high spirits he had when he went out to fight!He hadn't even fought against the auxiliary soldiers who escorted food and grass against France, which made him feel a strong sense of frustration, defeat!It's not that he hasn't lost since the moment he started the army. On the contrary, he has lost countless times. Compared with the worst ones, such as Shangluoshan being beaten to 18 people, he is still full of confidence even if it is so tragic, because he sees When it comes to the shortcomings of the Ming army and its own strengths, when it comes to the army in front of it, there is only despair!He said: "Are you sure it's not the Ming army elite secretly transferred from the north?" The one who had the same doubts as him was Hao Yaoqi, the general who broke into the camp, and others who were also puzzled?Is the army that escorts food and grass so strong?
"It's possible, otherwise how could the Ming army have such fighting power! The people who escorted the grain and grass are all elite!" Liu Zongmin said, with a strange feeling that he couldn't believe that the Ming army was so strong!Li Guo said: "Yes, after all, more than 3 people are good fighters we recruited from the hungry people, and many of them have practiced martial arts!"

"They must be the new army. I don't think the fearful expressions on their faces are fake!" Li Yan said, "And this part of the Ming army's fighting style is unheard of. They actually use strong crossbows and javelins to fight, and the javelins are used very skillfully. Then came the sword and shield formation, no one in the troops known to Da Ming has used this method to fight!"

"Strong crossbow javelin?" Everyone became weird, and the Ming army used this kind of weapon?They use bird guns, or are they three-eyed pets, with less powerful crossbows, let alone more exaggerated javelins?This was unheard of. Liu Zongmin asked strangely, "Javelins? Didn't the Ming army throw a few of them when they used it to disrupt the rhythm of our army?" What he said was the method used by the Ming army when they were in a mandarin duck formation.

"No! They threw their javelins very far and very accurately! And they are extremely powerful! Powerful! Fortunately, there were all hungry people in front of them, otherwise I might not be able to come back with so many brothers today!" Li Yan said, looking at the battlefield in front of him. The crowd was full of crying fathers and mothers.

All the generals who broke into the army sighed, and were shocked again. Zhang Wu continued, "And they are all wearing heavy armor. Our army can't break through their defenses at all!" He said, "Each of them is wearing thousands of leaves. Jiaye's heavy armor, so our army can't beat their defense at all!" He said.

this?All the generals are in trouble, and a helpless army has appeared. How can we fight?Li Zicheng sighed leisurely. Although the other Ming armies were strong, he could feel that the strength of this army was weakened after each battle. It was the Shandong army that became stronger every time. Every time he saw him, he would be stronger than the last time. few!What a disappointment. "It seems that my rebel army is not ready yet." His implication is to learn from Zhang Xianzhong and lay dormant to accumulate strength.

All the generals in the Chuang army felt this way, but Li Yan clasped his fists and said, "King Chuang, our army still has a chance of victory this time!" I'm tired!" The crowd became confused, it was still early.

Li Zicheng understood what he meant and waved his hands and said: "Generals, go back to the camp to rest first, Li Yan, Liu Zongmin stay with me to take a look at the Kaifeng city defense!" He said, and all the people retreated.

When everyone left, Li Yan glanced at Liu Zongmin and sighed. King Chuang still didn't understand what he meant, so he took out the letter and said, "This is a letter written by a general under He Renlong of the Ming Army to the last general!" Take it up.

Liu Zongmin looked at the letter with an inexplicable light, and said pleasantly: "Oh! That's it!" He laughed loudly, and said, "But I didn't expect that someone from the Ming army would surrender to my rebel army!" He said strangely.

However, Li Zicheng was overjoyed, if someone opened the city gate in the middle of the night and cared about how strong you are, you would be a turtle in the urn, he worried again: "Will there be fraud?" He asked strangely!How can my rebel army be as comfortable as they are when they are the Ming army?How can it be unreasonable to surrender yourself! ,

"A report from the child soldiers lurking in the army! It is said that Qin Xiaochuan beheaded his brother because he robbed women and children! After that, Qin Xiaochuan's cavalry did not save them!" Li Yan explained: "These are the truth! There will be no fakes! And my rebels can take a gamble!"

Li Zicheng nodded, with an inexplicable color in his eyes. If the traitor really opened the city gate, then Luoyang would go down. Otherwise, he would realize the possibility of victory in this battle. He sighed and said, "Okay! But this matter needs to be kept secret. Don't tell!" He always felt that there might be spies from the other party in his army.Especially the mysterious Beidou organization.

Everyone nodded, and Li Zicheng said again, "The remaining soldiers, Li Yan, will be handed over to you." The surviving soldiers are all elite, either under Zhang Wu's command or the old thief, but Li Yan said worriedly, "The Where are the five generals?"

"Haha, he's a lieutenant general!" Li Zicheng said. At this moment, he could see that he couldn't just concentrate on maneuvering like before. Otherwise, if he encountered this kind of Shandong army, it would be useless if he couldn't beat others with maneuvering.

Li Yan nodded, clasped his fists gratefully and said, "Thank you, King Chuang!" He could use the five remaining troops as the officers of this group of people to train their army formation and combat capabilities at one time.Everyone in the Chuangjun also gradually discovered that their mobile combat was completely useless for the Shandong Army. No matter how fast you run, it is of no use to beat others. You can rely on your horse to appear anywhere on the battlefield, but no matter where you appear You can't even beat them, especially after Li Zicheng completely changed his previous views after he couldn't even beat the opponent's army escorting food and grass.

"Don't take out your 5000 firearms soldiers this time," Li Zicheng said. The firearms soldiers under Li Yan's command have been expanded to 1. His subordinates must not only have speed, but also have combat effectiveness.

"This?" Li Yan asked in surprise, "General, what if the city of Kaifeng doesn't come down?" What he meant right now was what if the night attack failed?Wouldn't it stop fighting if his firearms were not allowed to go up?
this?Li Zicheng had a kind of despair. Although Li Zicheng in history also failed in the attack on Kaifeng, he wiped out many troops of the Ming army. Now that he has lost the ability to wipe out the main force of the Ming army, is there any hope for this battle to continue?
"This? The Shandong Army is here! Is there any hope for my rebel army to win?" Li Zicheng sighed leisurely, looking at the sky outside the tent, he didn't understand why the situation was so good, why there should be more Qin Xiaochuan in the world Send out a Shandong army.

"You King Chuang!" Li Yan was shocked. He felt that Li Zicheng in front of him had been hit to the point of losing confidence. Come back from the mountain, my rebel army can lose ten times, it doesn't matter a hundred times, but the Ming army can't afford to lose even one time!"

"Our rebels can lose ten times and a hundred times!" Li Zicheng's eyes showed an inexplicable light. He understood the key and laughed. "The government oppresses the people. Our rebel army can come back after its failure, but can the Ming army come back again? Haha"
