The transfer of the army is difficult, especially in the mountains.

After passing the first line of heaven, Shunjun walked dozens of miles along the rugged mountain road, and the sky was completely dark.

Although they walked dozens of miles, they were actually all curved mountain roads, and they were still far from going down the mountain.

Li Zicheng ordered camping on the spot. The place where they camped was in a dwarf field, which was relatively flat and was enough for large troops to station.

However, because most of the food, grass and supplies were abandoned, most of the soldiers of the Shun Army had no tent to raise.

They could only set up a bonfire and gathered to keep warm.

The long night is so cold. If the fire is not set, it is really possible that people will die of freezing.

The soldiers of Shunjun were all tired, leaning against each other, and soon they fell asleep after closing their eyes.

It is extremely rare for them to rest time, and it is a moment to rest for one more moment.

The next morning, I had to continue on the road.

The night is quiet, and nothing can be heard except the crackling sound of the dry branches burning with flames.

Li Zicheng closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap.

These days he hasn't slept for more than two hours, and his eyes have been red and covered with bloodshot.

But not long after he closed his eyes, he heard the deafening sound of horse hooves.

Li Zicheng subconsciously opened his eyes and bounced up. He looked at it with the flames and saw a cavalry rushing towards the camp.

Each of the cavalry held a torch in his hand, and from a distance he looked like a fire dragon.

Li Zicheng was shocked. Of course, he understood that the cavalry that could only be the Qing army at this time.

But how did the Qing army find his trace?

Li Zicheng didn't bother to think about this and quickly ordered his generals to prepare for the challenge.

Ta Mixiu and others reacted quickly enough, and the mobilization work was completed in a short while.

The soldiers of Shun Army all understood that they had no way out and could only survive if they broke through the siege.

Because it was too dark, Li Zicheng couldn't see clearly the part of the Qing army, but his subconscious feeling should not be the main force of the Eight Banners.

The Eight Banners Cavalry didn't like night attacks, and the Han people liked to play this set the most.

Li Zicheng turned over and took out his sword to command the battle.

This behavior has largely played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.

More and more Shun Army soldiers turned over and formed formations beside Li Zicheng.

They are all veterans of the "Three Walls".

The so-called Three Walls are the elite selected by Li Zicheng from the veterans of the Shun Army. Those who can be selected as Three Walls must not only have high qualifications, but also have extremely exquisite riding skills.

In several duels with the Ming army, all three walls played an extremely important role.

The tactics of this cavalry are very different from those of ordinary cavalry. They do not use the maneuverability of the cavalry to repeatedly harass them, but instead concentrate the cavalry to charge at one time.

To put it bluntly, this is a one-time deal. If the rushing force is successful, the enemy will inevitably be defeated. What the next thing the Shun Army has to do is to harvest the heads. If the rushing force fails, the Shun Army will also lose the sharpest cavalry in the army, and will definitely be greatly damaged.

What is commendable is that since the establishment of the Three Walls, they have never failed to charge repeatedly.

It is a killer move in Li Zicheng's hand, and he will not take it out easily unless he has to.

Li Zicheng made three walls to form a formation, proving that he believed that the situation was already very serious and that he had to sacrifice his life.

The cavalrymen on the three walls were very familiar with each other. Their horse heads were close to their tails, and the distance between them was very short.

Li Zicheng took a deep breath and ordered the three walls to start charging.

The cavalry hedging speed is the key. The Qing cavalry has already increased its speed when they are prepared, and the three walls cannot show weakness.

As the horses became faster and faster, the distance between the three walls of cavalry became tighter and tighter, and from a distance they looked like a spear.

And Li Zicheng was the spearhead.

One hundred steps, fifty steps, thirty steps.

Just as the cavalry on both sides collided, a cold arrow suddenly shot towards Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng quickly turned his body. It was just that because he could not fully stretch his movements on the horse's back, although he avoided the cold arrow, he was shot off his helmet and hat.

This more or less affected the impact speed of the three walls. Fortunately, Li Zicheng adjusted it in time and did not cause chaos.

The cavalry of the two armies were officially mixed together, and when you listened, you could hear the sound of spears breaking armor and flesh.

Li Zicheng discovered that the Qing cavalry was well-armed and well-trained, and was no worse than his three walls.

But he glanced at it quickly and found that the cavalry obviously did not belong to the Eight Banners Army, so there was only one possibility. This cavalry was the Guanning Army!

The so-called Guanning Army refers to an army trained by Yuan Cheng when the leader of the sect, Liao Zhen. This army not only had infantry and artillery, but also the cavalry that the Ming Dynasty lacked the most.

In order to fight against the Donglu, Emperor Chongzhen specially collected millions of taels of Liao gulf every year, and provided the Guanning Army with delicious food and drink.

But Guan Ningjun has never disappointed people in the matter of disappointing people.

The Governor of Ji Liao changed countless positions, but the Guanning Army had almost never won the field battle against the Eight Banners Army. Basically, they turned around and ran away when they saw the Eight Banners Army fighting, which means they dared to rely on the strong city to retreat to defend.

I don’t know how many people died of such a Guanning Army, but Emperor Chongzhen still held it in his hand and was afraid that it would melt.

Li Zicheng was extremely disdainful of Guanning Army. But today Guanning Army changed his view.

Judging from the showdown just now, Guan Ning Army did not lose much to the three walls in terms of momentum, but was better at ruthlessness.

What's going on?

Li Zicheng did not know that the Guanning Iron Cavalry led by Wu Sangui had been driven as a vanguard to conquer the city after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty. Even if he had conscripted a group of people who won so many battles, he would have gained confidence.

In addition, after shaving his hair and wearing braids, he subconsciously thought that he was a bannerman, and that kind of confidence in blessing was the driving force that drove them to charge.

The most important thing for cavalry hedging is the first wave of rushing. Nine times of ten hedging will cause one side to directly disperse the other side's formation.

The current situation is that both sides are equal in size, and Guanning Army and the three walls hedge one 55.

This is extremely rare.

But Li Zicheng had to admit this fact and think about how to deal with it based on this.

Now that the cavalry on both sides are entangled together, they are like animals trapped in mud ponds and cannot exert their strength at all. In most cases, you cut me and I stab you with a spear.

Losing speed, the power of the cavalry is greatly reduced, and it is even worse than the role of infantry in hand-to-hand combat.

"Yufeng, you can lead a team of people to squeeze out a way as much as possible to the direction of the Tartars's flag!"

At this time, it is the best choice to actively seek change. Li Zicheng narrowed his eyes and rushed to Tian Jianxiu, who was not far away, in a deep voice.

As long as Tian Jianxiu can attract some of the Guanning Army, Li Zicheng will have room to make use of.
