Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 288 He Renlong vs. Liu Zongmin
Lin Yi led more than 3 officers and soldiers, and cooperated with the outside. After half a night of fierce fighting, he not only successfully rescued Hao Yaoqi's thousands of troops, but also defeated Niu Jinxing's 10 troops.

At dawn, Lin Yi led the victorious soldiers to chase and wipe out the remnants of the enemy. Lin Yi hadn't personally charged on the battlefield for several months.This time he felt very enjoyable, just like when he was a special soldier before crossing, he had a training session, his whole body was dripping, although he sweated a lot, he felt very enjoyable.

Unlike usual, it stands to reason that after such a big victory, soldiers and horses should be taken in, the battlefield should be cleaned up, the spoils of war should be cleaned up, and post-war matters should be dealt with.

But this time Lin Yi did not do so, leaving only Hao Yaoqi and his staff to take care of the prisoners, and other post-war matters will be discussed later.

Lin Yi led the main force in hot pursuit, and chased for more than 30 miles in one breath, and then arrived at the foot of the hill where Sun Chuanting was trapped.

There is still a fierce battle here, of course it is He Renlong's men and Liu Zongmin's team fighting here.

According to Ji Dong's plan, He Renlong took 1 cavalry, including 1000 new musketeers, and left Ji Dong's main force one day in advance.Detour to the northeast for more than 300 miles, the goal is of course the hill where Sun Chuanting's men were trapped.

Lin Yi made such a plan at the beginning, in order to attract Li Zicheng's brigade to fight head-on, and then let He Renlong lead a partial division to attack from behind, mainly to rescue the trapped Sun Chuanting.

The reason why He Renlong's team was allowed to move ahead and go so far was to avoid Li Zicheng's scouting.

However, plans are always out of date.Or in other words, Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance, and Li Yan are not idiots. Three cobblers are worth one Zhuge Liang. They will not easily play cards according to Ji Dong's plan.

Li Zicheng's men and horses only came 10, and the main general was Niu Jinxing, which can be regarded as the main force.However, Li Zicheng is now very powerful, with half of his troops left, he is still gathering at the foot of Sun Chuanting and is trapped at the foot of the mountain, holding a wait-and-see attitude. This undoubtedly poses a great threat to He Renlong's rescue.

Here, Hao Yaoqi was trapped in Zhaojiatun again, forcing Lin Yi to resort to a fake strategy of besieging Wei and saving Zhao, in order to confuse Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing, but in fact it was a trick.

Lin Yi's trick of deceiving the sky and crossing the sea really attracted Li Zicheng's 7 people to the bank of Xiliu River, creating sufficient conditions for He Renlong's team.

When He Renlong arrived near the hill, it happened to be near the second watch at night.At this time, Ji Dong's men and horses were eating the late dinner on the banks of the Xiliu River dozens of miles away.And Li Zicheng led a 7-strong march on horseback, and had already driven to the other side of the Xiliu River to ambush.

On the outskirts of Zhaojiatun, less than 40 miles away from He Renlong's men in the other direction, was Niu Jinxing's 10 troops, who surrounded Hao Yaoqi's thousands of men.But at this time, what he was eyeing was not Hao Yaoqi's thousands of officers and soldiers, but Lin Yi's main force on the Xiliu River, 40 miles away from them.He was expecting Ji Dong's men to start crossing the river, and then he would send a powerful force to chase after him.

At this time, He Renlong's real opponent was Li Zicheng's 1 horses who were guarding several exits of the hill, and the leader of the army was Liu Zongmin, the No. 2 figure of Li Zicheng's group.

He Renlong ordered the team to take a temporary rest in order to recover their full physical strength during the battle. After figuring out the situation, when the third watch was approaching, He Long suddenly launched a fierce attack on a mountain pass with 1 horses.

There were only 2000 bandits here, and it was a sudden attack in the middle of the night, so it took no effort. He Renlong's men charged and killed the 2000 bandits and fled in all directions, leaving dead bodies everywhere.

After killing the bandits for two days, He Renlong rushed up the mountain with his troops.Just halfway up the mountain, a team rushed down from above.Although this team is said to be rushing, it is actually not much faster than walking. Some weapons can't be held firmly, some roads can't walk well, and the wind can even blow them down.

The general at the head had a disheveled armor and no armor on his head. He carried a Zhangba Snake Spear and did not ride a horse.He Renlong took a closer look, and he knew him too well. It was his former boss who was about to kill him. He was also the main person he was ordered to save by Lin Yi this time. Sun Chuanting, who is worthy of his teacher.

Thousands of men and horses were trapped on the mountain, with no food, no reinforcements, and the army had been suspended for nearly ten days. Sun Chuanting, who didn't want to sit still and had been accumulating strength for a long time, planned to fight desperately to break through, finally waited for his chance late at night.

The sound of people fighting down the mountain alarmed him, so he summoned up his energy and immediately assembled the team.In fact, these people are so hungry that they can't sleep, they just barely fall asleep.After gathering, rushing home is actually about the same speed as a snail.

The slope of this road was not steep and the road was not long, but they couldn't move on. It wasn't until He Renlong's troops completely dispersed the bandit army below that they rushed up to meet each other.

Because it was Heitian, and with Sun Chuanting and his soldiers, it seemed that everyone was two-headed, groggy, and mainly hungry. They wanted to fight He Renlong's men and horses, and send this team that came to rescue him. Also regarded as a bandit army.

Thanks to He Renlong's sharp eyesight, he recognized this Dushi Sun as soon as he stepped forward. Otherwise, He Renlong would have wiped out this army without any effort when the two armies were fighting, and all previous efforts would have been wasted.

When Sun Chuanting recognized He Renlong, his face was full of disbelief. A few days ago, he was ordered by the court to put He Renlong to death. Congratulations to Renlong.

At the beginning, he and Lin Yi turned out of the military account, murdered wantonly, and became traitors of the imperial court. Although the imperial court pardoned them and allowed them to return to their posts and continue to suppress thieves, can they forget that incident? Can they not hate themselves?
"He Renlong, are you here to kill Ben Du for revenge? Then please do it."

He Renlong gritted his teeth, "My lord supervisor is wrong, I am here to rescue you under the order of Lord Lin."

"Then there will be Lord Laulin and Your Excellency, thank you very much, I am ashamed." Sun Chuanting didn't know what to say at the time.

"My lord, you don't have to thank me. If you want to thank us, thank our lord Lin." He Renlong was disdainful, implying that someone cares about your thanks. If it weren't for our lord Lin's order, the ghost would risk his life to save you!
Of course Sun Chuanting heard it, and felt embarrassed by the tone.At this time, he didn't blame He Renlong, but was just grateful, after all, it was a life-saving grace, and Sun Chuanting was also a person who valued friendship.And he did feel a little shameless about that incident, but it was just a sacred order.

He wanted to explain that matter to He Renlong, but he felt that the explanations at this time were weak and useless, and that would not only be disrespectful to the court, but would also make He Renlong and others feel that they were an idiot. People who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

Therefore, Sun Chuanting did not mention this matter again.

At this time, the more than 4000 Qin soldiers under him saw that they were the troops of the imperial court, and their hearts were all in their stomachs. The desire to survive supported their hungry bodies that were approaching the limit.

Soldiers from both sides rushed down the mountain together, and someone gave Sun Chuanting a horse to ride on.Of course, He Renlong's men led the way ahead.

As soon as I rushed down the mountain, boom, boom, three gunshots, deafening, the bandits all over the mountain rushed over from all directions, countless torches under the night sky, like winding dragons, blocked their way .

On the left are Liu Tichun and Dang Shousu, on the right are Bai Minghe and Lan Yingcheng, and in front is the commander-in-chief Liu Zongmin. The three-way army overwhelmingly blocked their way.

A few hours ago, after Li Zicheng left with 7 horses, he handed over this place to Liu Zongmin.

Liu Zongmin led four generals and 1 horses, and was responsible for continuing to besiege the hill, and Sun Chuanting and others could not be allowed to escape.

They never dreamed that there would be something going on here tonight.

When Liu Zongmin was sleeping in a daze, he was suddenly woken up by his subordinates. Someone came to report that reinforcements from the government army had arrived. I don’t know how many there were. The army rushed to the mountain.

Liu Zongmin felt that the matter was too big, so he ordered the team to assemble immediately, dressed neatly, and led his men to rush to this mountain pass. His troops arrived, and the troops from the two mountain passes also arrived. Nearly ten thousand people blocked the pass. The mountain road is impenetrable.
