Chapter 125: Crossing the Yellow River Eastward and Encountering the Dead
Shortly thereafter, the leaders of the rebel army, such as Zijin Liang, King Chaoshi, Ji Guansuo, Eight Great Kings, Cao Cao, Chuang Collapse Tian, and Xinga Hali, led their troops to Shanxi, where the strength of officers and soldiers was relatively weak, and was active in Fenzhou, Taiyuan, Pingyang and other places.
Although Li Zicheng's unit has made great progress, it has not attracted the attention of officers and men because it has always adhered to the strategy of "covert development" put forward by Li Zicheng. After the rebel armies from all walks of life entered the Jin Dynasty one after another, Li Zicheng also led his troops to quietly cross the Yellow River.
Looking back at Shaanxi, Li Zicheng actually had a different taste in his heart, and after a long time, he secretly said, "We will come back again", turned to Tian Jianxiu and asked, "Did the people who contacted King Chuang send out?" ”
Li Zicheng said that the king is Yingxiang. After Wang Ziyong died of illness in Jiyuan, Henan Province last year (1632), all the righteous armies were under the control of Yingxiang and were called "King Chuang". Before crossing the Yellow River, Li Zicheng sent people to contact him many times, and the strategy of "hidden development" benefited him a lot.
Seeing that Li Zicheng had been silent when he crossed the river, Tian Jianxiu was secretly anxious, listened to his question, and hurriedly said: "I have already sent it out, and it is estimated that the people sent by King Gao Chuang to pick us up are almost there." ”
Before the words fell, I saw a big man in the shape of a man, leading a few cavalry, galloping over.
Li Zicheng couldn't wait to take a closer look, this group of people had already arrived. This big man flew off the horse, shouted "brother", and threw himself into Li Zicheng's arms.
It's actually a high achievement!
Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately hugged him tightly, and the person returned to a year ago.
On that day, Li Zicheng took a few brothers out to investigate the movements of the officers and soldiers. While passing through the checkpoint, one of the brothers accidentally called out "Chief."
"Chief? What boss? Thieves have leaders. Oh, so you are thieves, not only thieves, but also the leaders of the thieves. ”
The sentry at the checkpoint was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood, and shouted at the other accomplices: "Quick, there are thieves here, catch them, don't let them escape." ”
While shouting, he has swung his knife and slashed at Li Zicheng.
Li Zichengyan can make it slash, flash sideways, and when it turns around and cuts again, it goes around to its side, flies up with a kick, hits its heavenly spirit cover, and it snorts and dies on the spot.
At that time, Hong Chengchou had just taken over as the governor of the three sides, and he was making every effort to eliminate the rebels. The thieves were found here, and their accomplices were killed, and the officers and soldiers were eager to do their best and surrounded them.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Zicheng fought hard to knock down two officers and soldiers, shouted "The wind is tight, pull and hoop," turned around and ran up the mountain.
When he reached the mountain, Li Zicheng stopped and looked back to see that the brothers who were following him were gone, and the officers and soldiers were still chasing after him.
"The big deal is to die, don't run away, fight with them to break the net." Li Zicheng really couldn't run, so he thought to himself, so he simply sat down.
The officers and soldiers were afraid of his bravery, and they were stunned for a moment, but they still surrounded him step by step.
When they got closer, Li Zicheng stood up abruptly and roared with all his strength.
The officers and soldiers involuntarily took two steps back, and Li Zicheng was just about to take advantage of the momentum to attack, when someone suddenly came over and took his hand and ran away.
This man was very familiar with the terrain in the mountains, and led him to turn left and right, and actually got rid of the encirclement and pursuit of the officers and soldiers.
At this time, Li Zicheng noticed that this person was actually a meritorious service!
Gao Ligong was originally a jailer in Yan'an, and that year, Li Zicheng went to Yan'an to learn art, and the two met by chance, and it was like acquaintance at first sight. Soon after, due to the uneven fight, Gao Ligong accidentally killed the prefect's brother-in-law Shi Youren, and Li Zicheng escaped after saving him.
How could Gao Ligong be here? It turned out that after Gao Ligong escaped, he took his younger brother Gao Yigong to Hulu Mountain (commonly known as Huludan) in the north of Mizhi County.
On this day, the newly married sister Gao Guiying also came here because her husband died suddenly. Seeing his sister, Gao Ligong inexplicably thought of and missed Li Zicheng day by day.
Gao Ligong himself couldn't tell why, after lunch, he saw that his sister and younger brother Gao Yigong began to dance with knives and guns, and went out of the yard alone, went up the mountain, and wandered aimlessly.
said that it was aimless, but in fact, Gao Ligong was secretly looking forward to meeting Li Zicheng. However, after only a while, Gao Ligong smiled dumbly: "Alas, what's wrong with me today? Why is Li Zicheng here? ”
As he sighed, he suddenly saw that the officers and soldiers were running after a person, and he hurriedly hid behind the rocks to peek. It's closer, it's closer, oh my God, this person is really Li Zicheng.
Gao Ligong was overjoyed in his heart, and slowly approached, just as Li Zicheng roared, causing the officers and soldiers to take a few steps back, hurriedly flew out, took his hand and ran.
Seeing that it was him, Li Zicheng secretly said "providence", and before he could speak, Gao Ligong had briefly told him how he had moved here, and then shook his hand vigorously and led him back to his courtyard.
In the courtyard, Gao Guiying and Gao Yigong were dancing to a wonderful place, and Li Zicheng couldn't help but cheer.
Only then did the sister and brother realize that there was someone in the courtyard, so they stopped embarrassedly, looked at their brother nervously, and then looked at Li Zicheng.
Li Zicheng is also looking at the sister and brother: these two are red and white, they are both dressed in martial arts, and the younger brother is tall and burly, if he has been trained, he must be a tiger general, and he has already liked it first.
If I go to see my sister again, it must be because of the match just now, there are dense beads of fine sweat on her beautiful face, slightly red, and a little panting.
Li Zicheng was unconsciously stunned, and his eyes looked straight at Gao Guiying.
This Gao Guiying saw that Li Zicheng was strong and majestic, and his aura was lofty, and he secretly felt emotional: "Who is this person?" Why is it so different? ”
secretly thought, after all, he was shy, so he kept looking at Li Zicheng.
Seeing Li Zicheng looking straight at him, not only did he not feel angry, but secretly rejoiced and bravely went to look at him.
The four looked at each other, and both of them were as if they had been electrocuted, and they couldn't help but shake up.
Gao Ligong had already noticed it, and said twice, "This is the elder sister Gao Guiying and younger brother Gao Yigong of meritorious service", seeing that Li Zicheng had no reaction, he had the intention not to disturb them, but when he saw that Gao Yigong also noticed something unusual, he looked at them curiously from time to time, lest he see through it, and hurriedly said: "This is the big hero Li Zicheng I often tell you, why don't you come over to see the ceremony?" ”
Gao Yigong had heard his brother talk about it, and when he heard it, he immediately came up and pestered Li Zicheng to give him guidance on martial arts.
Li Zicheng has worshipped famous teachers, and he has studied and pondered over the years, and has unique insights into martial arts. realized his gaffe again, and wanted to show off in Gao Guiying, so he inevitably had to teach him wholeheartedly.
Gao Ligong and Gao Yigong benefited a lot, and they were very happy, and Gao Guiying was reluctant to give up, but she was still busy cooking on the fire.
Gao Guiying was determined to show off her cooking skills, and it was ready in a while, so she came over and called these three to eat.
"Her voice, high but not harsh, how can it be so good?" Li Zicheng pointed at the two brothers for a while, smelled each other, thought secretly, couldn't help but look at her again, his heart trembled again, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
