Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 485 Breaking the formation to save people (1) (one more)
Huiying, Huimei and Zhang Nai were moved for a while after hearing Zhu Yousong's words, and they were even more happy when they heard that Zhu Yousong had a plan to break the battle and save people. Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yafu can't compare with each other.

Zhu Yousong immediately delivered an order to call He Zhaoxiong, the commander of the navy battalion who had just arrived at Guandu, to the battalion, ordering him to select [-] strong sailors, not to send out warships, but to dive upstream Two days later, they rushed to the back of the Queyue formation, took care to hide from the eyes of the Dashun army, landed from the water, and cooperated with the troops on the shore to break through the formation.

He Zhaoxiong took the order and went back to the navy camp fifty miles away that night. It was of course a breeze to select [-] strong sailors out of [-] sailors.

Of the [-] members, nearly [-] are from the old navy camp, most of them are from the original team of Green Willow Villa, only more than [-] people are elites selected from the new navy camp, and these more than [-] people After He Zhaoxiong's hands-on training for more than half a year, his underwater skills have been almost mastered. All of them can dive for a long time and can fight alone underwater, let alone fighting on a boat or on the water.

He Zhaoxiong picked up all the personnel overnight, still named them death squads, and gave an oath to the teacher.

Before dawn the next day, under the leadership of He Zhaoxiong himself, this [-]-strong death squad sneaked into the river without anyone noticing it, and went upstream, leaving the affairs of the navy battalion to the deputy general.

The naval battalion was more than forty miles away from the Queyue formation of the Dashun Army. Since they were going upstream and spent most of their time sneaking in the water, Zhu Yousong gave them two days.

Of course, people are not fish after all, and it is impossible for people to stay underwater for two days.After holding back underwater for a long time, of course he can come out of the water to breathe, as long as he is not discovered by the Dashun Army.

Marching twenty miles in a big river a day is considered ample time. He Zhaoxiong led them to sneak against the current during the day, and rest and eat dry food near the bank at night.

After a day and night of special marching, at noon the day before the time limit Zhu Yousong gave them, He Zhaoxiong and the others arrived at a place more than ten miles away from the Queyue formation. From a distance, they could already see the company of the Dashun Army up.

He Zhaoxiong didn't dare to go any further, because the distance was too close, and the Dashun army might discover the target, and all previous efforts would be wasted.

They found a reed marsh, hid themselves and began to rest, dispatched people to take turns to police, and the rest ate dry food, drank water, slept, and rested until the third watch of the night. He Zhaoxiong led them to continue diving, swimming against the current superior……

After sending He Zhaoxiong away, Zhu Yousong continued to divide troops and dispatch generals. The new battalion dispatched [-] troops, led by Du Yinxi, the left servant of the Ministry of War, who was also their demon instructor Du Yinxi.

After He Zhaoxiong's navy succeeded, that is, when there was chaos in the Yueyue formation, they launched a fierce attack again.

Then Zhu Yousong passed down another decree, asking Ma Wannian, the one-eyed general, and Zhang Huan, the young arrow general, to gather 1 imperial guards in the camp and prepare for it. Thousands of people rushed to the company battalion of the Dashun Army, and cooperated with the soldiers of the Ming Army who had broken the formation, fought hard to drive Li Zicheng's troops into the Yellow River to feed the fish and turtles.

Ma Wannian suffered three minor wounds during the Battle of Yuanwu. After several days of careful treatment by the military medical officer, coupled with his young age, good physique, and fresh blood, his injuries have already healed.

You can't win at chess and ignore your family. A company with 10,000+ troops must be well defended. Otherwise, when they send troops to break the formation, the camp will be empty.Li Zicheng's men took the opportunity to steal the camp and rob the village. There are wounded and sick numbers, military rations, warehouses, etc. in the camp. Wouldn't it be the end of it?

Therefore, the task of guarding the base camp is very important.The remaining tens of thousands of Ming army soldiers, mainly the old Ming army, had poor combat effectiveness, and the task of defending the Ming army camp was entrusted to them.

Then let Li Quan send the shrewd men of Jinyiwei to pass the news among several groups of people.

After all the troops were dispatched, Zhu Yousong sent a special person to meet Li Zicheng at the Dashun barracks with his personal seal to determine the date for breaking the formation.

This is tantamount to telling in advance that even if the hostile forces break the formation, they cannot go to war without declaring it, not to mention that there are still hostages in the opponent's hands.

After Li Zicheng received Zhu Yousong's specific date for breaking the formation, they began to break the formation in exactly half of the ten days they had set, that is, on the fifth day.

Li Zicheng knew what was in his mind. After sending away the envoys of the Ming camp, he discussed with Niu Jinxing and Song Jiance. Li Zicheng had no idea about this big formation. He had already suffered Zhu Yousong's loss once, so he was cautious everywhere. , and don't be careless.

After all, the victory or defeat of this battle is very important, not only related to the names of thousands of soldiers, but also related to Li Zicheng's famous name and prestige. In order to advance eastward, they prepared for more than a year. Liu Zongmin lost nearly 15 soldiers and horses. In the first battle of Yuanwu, he lost another nearly 3 soldiers and horses. This time Li Zicheng led an army of [-] troops. Up to now, in addition to the war reduction and guarding Shanzhou, Luoyang, Hulao Pass, and the soldiers and horses on the south bank of the Yellow River, At present, there are only [-] troops in his battalion capable of combating, and another [-] were used to set up the formation, which means that more than half of the Dashun Army has dispatched this time, so the victory or defeat of this battle is too crucial. It is not an exaggeration to say that it concerns the newly established Dashun regime.

Therefore, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies and the founder of the Dashun regime, Li Zicheng had to pay attention to this battle, and then asked the two think tanks with some concern, did Zhu Yousong really have a way to break the formation?In case they break the formation, what should we do?

The dark and short Song Xiance groaned silently, pinching his fingers, chanting words like divination.

Niu Jinxing didn't take it seriously, thinking that their majesty was scared by Zhu Yousong, how could he become a frightened bird?Is this still the invincible, invincible King Li Chuang who despised all the heroes in the world?A few years ago, Niu Jinxing hadn't served Li Zicheng yet. In the battle of Nanyuan, their tens of thousands of Li Chuang's army was almost wiped out by the army of Ming Dynasty. In Shangluo Mountain, their Majesty Li Zicheng did not suffer from such a heavy blow.

Finally made a comeback again, broke out of Shangluo Mountain, marched into Henan, captured Beijing in one fell swoop, and forced Emperor Chongzhen to death, why can't even bear this blow now, where is the original courage?

Niu Jinxing thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say so, only a confident person gave Li Zicheng a reassuring word:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if Zhu Rusong has three heads and six arms, it will be difficult for him to break through this formation. He dare not use cannons, because we have hostages, and even if he has millions of soldiers to attack this formation, it will be difficult for him to attack. "

Li Zicheng felt a little comforted when he heard this, but Song Xiance thought about it for a long time, and shook his head slightly, "Your Majesty is in trouble, Zhu Yousong will not come if he is kind this time, and he will not come if he is kind. superior."

"Short Song, what do you mean, do you want to disturb our army's morale?" Niu Jinxing became angry.

"Okay!" Li Zicheng's face sank, and he agreed with Song Xiance in his heart, asking Niu Jinxing to prepare with all his strength to deal with the Ming army breaking the formation in the big formation tomorrow, but he had other plans in mind.
