"Father, I have sent many of my sons," Li Shuangxi said with a bitter face, "But, but..."

Li Shuangxi couldn't explain it clearly. He couldn't say that I didn't expect Jiannu to kill him, so he only sent a small number of ambushes and scout cavalry.

And the officers and generals below were probably discounted.

"Damn it!" Li Zicheng was so angry that he almost died. He was so careless.

However, Li Zicheng soon realized something was wrong and asked, "That's not right. Where is your army?"

Jiannu left camp and returned to the army yesterday morning, and Liu Zongmin's 50,000-strong army set off last night. Even if Jiannu made a surprise attack on Kaifeng with his carbine, he would hit Liu Zongmin first.

Liu Zongmin has an army of 50,000. Even if he is ambushed, not even a messenger can get out, right? Unless...

Li Zicheng quickly thought of another possibility, unless this was just a trap from the beginning, and the return of the slaves to Xuzhou was just a cover, in which case Liu Zongmin would also be in danger!

Thinking of this, Li Zicheng's lungs almost exploded with anger.

It's all Niu Jinxing's and Niu Quan's father and son's fault!

It must have been the fool Niu Quan who let Jiannu fool him!

At that moment, Li Zicheng said sternly: "Where are Niu Jinxing and Niu Quan, father and son?"

"Father, I didn't see Niu Jinxing and his son just now." Li Shuangxi said in panic, "Father, please leave quickly!"

While the father and son were talking, Song Xiance and Zuo Maodi also hurried over. As soon as they met, they shouted: "Your Majesty, hurry up, Jiannu is coming along Dongmen Street to kill!"

Then the crash of weapons was heard.

At this time, Li Zicheng's soldiers brought the horse over.

"Damn it, let's go!" Li Zicheng stamped his feet and got on his horse.

Song Xiance and Zuo Maodi also mounted their horses. Under the protection of Li Shuangxi and Yibiao Dashun cavalry, they hurriedly left the city from the west gate of Kaifeng. However, as soon as they left the city gate, they encountered a group of Jian slaves who stayed overnight.

After a scuffle, Jian Nu was repulsed without stopping at night.

Dashun's cavalry also lost more than twenty cavalry.

…

Near dawn, Dorgon returned to the outside of Kaifeng.

By this time, the slave-building army had already captured Kaifeng City.

He Luohui, covered in blood, came to Dorgon's horse and said: "Master, Kaifeng has been taken!"

Being able to capture Kaifeng was already within Dorgon's expectation. Dorgon was more concerned about whether he had caught or killed Li Zicheng: "Where is Li Zicheng? Have you caught him?"

"Li Zicheng ran away." He Luohui said, "Only Niu Jinxing and his son were caught."

"It may be useful to keep an eye on these two father and son in the future." After Dorgon finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the majestic east gate of Kaifeng and said word for word, "Send the order and let the Eight Banners warriors enjoy themselves.

Seal the knife!"

"Long live the Nine Kings!" Upon hearing this, the accompanying nobles of the Eight Banners cheered wildly.

Dorgon's order was conveyed to the city. The Eight Banners soldiers who were sitting and resting in the streets and alleys of the city suddenly became excited. While shouting long live the Nine Kings, they broke into the house and carried out comprehensive, cruel and brutal attacks in Kaifeng City.

After the bloody looting, the Han people in Kaifeng City were really unlucky.

Kaifeng was originally a large city in the Central Plains, with a population of nearly 400,000 at its peak.

After Li Zicheng flooded Kaifeng City, the population dropped sharply to less than 50,000.

However, after Chen Qianfu's governance, many fleeing people were gradually collected, many Jin gentry also returned one after another, and Kaifeng's population returned to more than 100,000. This time the Dashun army entered the city with a peaceful handover, and the people did not suffer military disasters.

But this time, Kaifeng City could not escape the catastrophe.

…

Let’s talk about Li Zicheng later.

They fled all the way to Sishui before they dared to stop.

At this time, there were only a hundred cavalry left under the leadership of Li Shuangxi.

Because they encountered several groups of Jiannu's Night Guards on their way out, they were really capable of fighting. Even five Dashun cavalrymen might not be able to fight them for a whole night.

Immediately afterwards, the Eight Banners Mongolia and the Outer Mongolia caught up.

After a series of fierce battles, only a hundred cavalry remained from the three thousand cavalry.

Fortunately, Chen Yongfu, who stayed in Luoyang, actually led his troops to Sishui.

It wasn't until he entered Sishui Pass that Li Zicheng dared to stop and gather the defeated troops.

Although he suffered another unprecedented defeat, Li Zicheng's mood was relatively stable.

Even Li Zicheng survived a big defeat like Shanhaiguan, so what does the defeat in Kaifeng mean?

By the morning of the next day, defeated soldiers fled back one after another. Not only the defeated soldiers from Kaifeng, but also many defeated soldiers under Liu Zongmin's command fled back, and brought back the bad news that Liu Zongmin had been captured.

Now Li Zicheng finally became angry, which was a loss of an arm.

Since the establishment of Shangluoshan, Liu Zongmin has been his number one general.

Liu Zongmin was defeated in Shanhaiguan and did not die. Unexpectedly, he was killed in Kaifeng.

So Li Zicheng hated Niu Jinxing even more, saying that he would not spare Niu lightly this time.

However, Li Zicheng could not wait to see Niu Jinxing and his son until he returned to Luoyang.
