The area of the camp of tens of thousands of people is very large, and when a few people are still a few hundred meters away from the edge of the camp, a soldier who got up at night finally found that the black-clothed man led by him opened his hand and killed the soldier, but the screams he made before his death instantly woke up the entire camp, and there was a chaos of shouting everywhere.

In the panic, many rebel soldiers saw the man in black, and the shouts of catching the assassin immediately sounded in the barracks.

The man in black obviously didn't pay attention to this situation, but pulled out his saber and slashed the soldiers who rushed at him, while methodically escorting Li Dingguo to evacuate to the predetermined route.

Although the entire battalion has been turned upside down, there are only a few people who have seen the men in black, and most of the soldiers do not know what is happening. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion at the granary, and some of the unlucky ones stepped on a mine, immediately attracting most of the attention.

Seeing this scene, more than a dozen black-clothed people outside the camp gate hurriedly arranged.

"Black wolf, you immediately send signal flares to the large army, white wolf, green wolf, release all the rockets in your hands, and the rest of the people will rush with me to cover the sky wolf and them."

With a snort, a yellow flare rose into the sky, followed by a whistling sound, and dozens of incendiary rockets swayed into the camp of the rebels with light blue tails of fire.

The rocket has little explosive power, and is mainly used as an incendiary bomb, which contains flammable materials such as sulfur, which is extremely difficult to extinguish. Dozens of rockets immediately caused a sea of fire in the camp of the rebels!

Not far north of the camp, there was also a loud sound of charging horns. With a rumbling sound, it seemed that countless war horses galloped forward.

"What's going on? Is it the Ming army attacking? Zhang Xianzhong walked out of the camp tent with a flustered face and asked.

"King, it seems that the Ming army robbed the camp! Hey, it seems that the third general was injured. A sharp-eyed soldier said.

I saw two soldiers hurrying over with Liu Wenxiu.

"Father-in-law, the big thing is not good, Li Dingguo colluded with the new army and robbed the camp in the middle of the night! He was also rescued by the lurking Hosaku! Liu Wenxiu said weakly.

"Li Dingguo! I have treated you well, and you have secretly harmed me! Wow, I'm. Zhang Xianzhong said angrily.

"Immediately organize the army to concentrate in the middle military camp, and if the Ming army dares to come, it will fight to the death!" Angry is angry, and the battle still has to be arranged. Zhang Xianzhong was not overwhelmed by anger.

Ambushed in the north of the camp is the cavalry battalion of the new army, at this moment the camp of the rebels is full of flames, a chaos, the cavalry of the new army only used a few grenades to blow up the camp gate, a long drive straight in, the panicked rebel soldiers in the face of the swarming brigade of cavalry can not form an effective resistance at all, the whole battlefield has become a one-sided massacre.

The cavalry battalion commander Zhang Bingliang is also an old man who follows Zhu Hao, this expedition has always played the role of playing soy sauce, and he didn't fight a good battle, this time it was finally enjoyable, the cavalry battalion killed three in and three out, until the entire rear camp could not see the large-scale trace of the rebels.

The red signal flare rose at the right time, indicating the successful completion of the entire rescue and robbery plan, and under the cover of the cavalry, a group of black-clothed men escorted Li Dingguo to leave the rebel territory safely and return north.

Afterwards, Zhang Xianzhong grinned with hatred, and the battle of the night was one-sided, with a total of 40,000 soldiers and horses in the entire battalion, and countless cavalry were burned to death and killed by cavalry in the chaos, and many of them escaped, with a loss of nearly 10,000 people. The granary was blown up, half of the grain and grass were lost, the mines at the military horse were trampled on, and the war horses fled countless times, almost uncontrollable.

Although there are still a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, under the loss of soldiers and generals, under the repeated blows, Zhang Xianzhong's heart is sad and his fighting spirit is completely lost, almost the same as the situation of accepting the imperial court's recruitment.

Li Dingguo was protected and ran all the way for several days before he stopped, and when he inquired, he arrived in Suizhou! It wasn't until I saw Zhu Hao that I understood.

It turned out that Zhu Hao received Yang Sichang's document and immediately ordered the troops to retreat to Suizhou overnight. He had already expected that Li Dingguo might be killed, so he secretly left a group of wolf-tooth special forces and cavalry battalions to organize the rescue.

Although Li Dingguo admired his clever calculations, he was still haunted by what happened to him, believing that Zhu Hao was the culprit.

"Zhu Dashuai, I am no longer tolerated by the rebels, and you have one less enemy, so it's up to you to deal with me now. I, Li Dingguo, frowned, and I am not a good man. ”

"Hongyuan didn't think that I was arranging this just to get rid of you? Then why did I go out of order to save you? Zhu Hao smiled.

"And what do you mean?" Li Dingguo was puzzled.

"I told you, I fancy your talent! I don't want a talent like you to be annihilated in the righteous army, Zhang Xianzhong doesn't deserve you at all! Zhu Hao said sincerely.

"Then you're going to use a trick to hurt me? Don't say it, I won't surrender! Li Dingguo said angrily.

"Hongyuan, after so much, you still don't want to open. You know about Yuan Chonghuan, right? Zhu Hao asked.

"Inspector Yuan's reputation is spread all over the world, how could I not know, it's a pity that the faint monarch doesn't know what to do and self-destructs the Great Wall!" Li Dingguo mentioned Emperor Chongzhen's gritted teeth.

"Yes, when Yuan Chonghuan is mentioned, people think of how the emperor is mediocre and how he destroyed the Great Wall, but who has scolded Huang Taiji, the initiator of this matter?" Zhu Hao stretched out his hand and asked.

"This ......," Li Dingguo was speechless for a while.

"Let me tell you, that's because Huang Taiji and Da Ming are enemies, and of course they can do anything to win between opponents, how can you say that Huang Taiji is not?"

"......" Li Dingguo began to ponder.

"This principle is the same here, we were enemies before, in order to defeat the enemy, of course, we can use all kinds of strategies, can you explain in advance which strategy is not allowed to be used before the two armies?"

"......" Li Dingguo's face began to be embarrassed.

"So, my strategy is so effective, because Zhang Xianzhong is simply a jealous person, and Sun Kewang is even more villainous, even if there is no me, you will not end well under the high merit of the master, but it will be later, do you dare not admit it?"

"You, you're not bad. After this incident, I realized that I was indeed too naïve! Li Dingguo hugged his head painfully.

"Hongyuan, I valued you at the beginning, not only because of your talent, but also because your ambition is different from Zhang Xianzhong, he is a person who has no ambition and is greedy for pleasure, but you have a heart to help the people of the world! You are not destined to come together. You are still young, your ambitions and ideals should not be buried here, cheer up and fight with me! Zhu Hao looked at Li Dingguo Road affectionately, and he estimated that this "confession" was enough to win the best line award.

"I ......" Li Dingguo held his head, Zhu Hao's words were fine, and every sentence hit the softest place in his heart.

"The sincerity of the handsome Dingguo is very touched, but I still have to think about it!" After a long time, Li Dingguo made up his mind.

"No problem, so Hongyuan, I will send someone to escort you back to Xuzhou first, there is a small world I have created, you can also go to the New Army Military Academy to have a look, if you still don't want to help me at that time, then I won't force you to stay, just let you go." Zhu Hao saw that he did not refuse, and said with great joy.

"The handsome bearing is by no means comparable to that of idle people! In the future, the achievements are bound to be immeasurable, and I hope that the country will follow one day. Hearing Zhu Hao say this, Li Dingguo also said with some emotion.

Li Dingguo's matter here has come to an end, but he has not received orders from the imperial court, Zhu Hao still can't leave, although the main force of the new army is stationed in Suizhou, but there is still a regiment in Xingshan under the command of Zhang Huangyan alone.

Wang Zhifeng's troops marched into Xingshan City shortly after Zhu Hao left, and Zhang Huangyan withdrew to camp outside the city in accordance with Zhu Hao's instructions, and was ready to return east at any time.

The rest is Wang Zhifeng and Zuo Liangyu's, at this time Zuo Liangyu heard that Zhang Xianzhong was defeated again and again, and was shrinking to the west of Xingshan, and hurriedly marched to occupy Badong, blocking Zhang Xianzhong's way south.

Wang Zuo's two armies totaled more than 60,000, and Zhang Xianzhong's 50,000 soldiers and horses had a slight upper hand.

Yang Sichang also thinks so, now the Zhang Bu thieves are blocked from advancing westward, and they dare not go north, and there is a left army in the south to block them, and they are almost in a desperate situation, and their destruction is just around the corner! Our overseer has been humming a little song all day these days, and his mood is very good.

But a few days later, the news poured a basin of cold water on him! Zuo Liangyu's battle was unfavorable, and Zhang Xianzhong broke through and went south!

Here's the thing, Zhang Xianzhong with 50,000 remnants of the army hit a wall everywhere, lost Li Dingguo and the fierce general Chang Guoan, the combat effectiveness of the righteous army dropped a lot, when the news came from Xingshan that the new army withdrew, and the other way the Ming army settled in, Zhang Xianzhong was happy for a long time, the new army The plague god finally left, in his opinion, other Ming troops are not qualified to stop him.

Immediately sent Sun Kewang to wave his army to storm Xingshan, who knew that although Wang Zhifeng's military talent was average, he was also a combative lord, in the face of Sun Kewang's superior forces to attack the city, he fought to the death and did not retreat, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

At this time, the news came that the new army that had been withdrawn appeared near Xingshan again, which frightened Sun Kewang a lot, and fled south overnight, and discussed with Zhang Xianzhong after going back, feeling that the Ming army in the north was strong and could not be taken lightly, and should go south to break Zuo Liangyu's department and enter Hunan.

Zuo Liangyu was defeated in his own hands half a year ago, Zhang Xianzhong felt that it was not a big problem to break through the Padang defense line, but this time he was wrong again, Zuo Liangyu had suffered a loss, how could he fall again in the same place? Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong attacked the city no matter how he attacked the battle, and tried his best to lure Zuo Liangyu into battle, but Zuo Liangyu was determined to stick to it.

Badong is backed by the Yangtze River, if you want to break through to the south, you must break the city, Zhang Xianzhong has nothing to do, the whole army pressed the onslaught, and several times almost attacked the city, but Zuo Liangyu repulsed.

So the two were entangled for more than ten days, until Wang Zhifeng's department in the north was rested, and the army went straight to Zhang Xianzhong's back to kill, which immediately shocked him half to death, in desperation, Ai Nengqi came up with an idea, volunteered to bribe Zuo Liangyu, let him let the righteous army live, in desperation, Zhang Xianzhong had to write a letter by himself, let Ai Nengqi take it to see Zuo Liangyu.

The content of the letter reads, "Loyalty is here, so the public is respected." The public office department kills and plunders, while the cabinet department guesses and dedicates. If there is no loyalty, it will not be long before the public is destroyed".

It is said that Zuo Liangyu saw the letter, and he didn't say anything for a long time, and these words hit Zuo Liangyu's heart, and after thinking about it, Zuo Liangyu decided to let Zhang Xianzhong go.

However, Zuo Liangyu's condition was that Zhang Xianzhong could only cross the river with 3,000 people, and the rest were all dismissed.

At this time, where did Zhang Xianzhong dare to talk about the conditions? Hurriedly agreed to Zuo Liangyu, taking advantage of the fact that the Ming army behind had not yet been encircled, he hurriedly crossed the Yangtze River, all the way south into Shizhou, and after resting here for a few months, he suddenly led his troops into Sichuan.

After Wang Zhifeng and Zuo Liangyu converged, seeing Zuo Liangyu's "heavy casualties", he was embarrassed to say anything, the relationship between the two was not bad, so he could only return to Xingshan in despair.

After Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan, he was like a fish in water, taking advantage of the contradictions between Sichuan governor Shao Jiechun and Yang Sichang, defeating the Sichuan army in a row, and conquering several counties in eastern Sichuan one after another. That's all for later.
