Li Zicheng besieged Taiyuan for many days with nearly 200,000 troops and more than 100,000 displaced people, and launched a general attack frantically last night, and was heavily injured by officers and soldiers in a fierce battle all night.

In this battle, Li Zicheng devoted all his troops to besiege Taiyuan, but Chang Yu recruited troops to do tricks, killed and fled, and his vitality was greatly damaged, but he killed one thousand enemies and lost eight hundred, although most of the officers and soldiers relied on the city wall to fight defensive battles, but under the fierce attack of the thief army and the last blow out of the city, the casualties were not small.

After a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers were exhausted, and after more than ten miles of pursuit, they immediately withdrew their troops to rest.

Chang Yu and Zhou Yuji retreated from the ruins of the thief army camp to Taiyuan City, what they saw along the way was shocking, it is not an exaggeration to say that everywhere they came into their eyes, there were corpses!

The closer you get to Taiyuan City, the more corpses there are, and all kinds of tragic situations are unbearable to look at.

The cruelty of the war is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, with Chang Yu's mentality, he actually has the feeling of vomiting at this time, which is really not as good as Zhou Yuji and the others who have long been numb.

The officers and soldiers withdrew from all directions towards the city one after another, and the fierce battle all night, the highly tense nerves, made them extremely tired at this time, but mixed with a trace of inexplicable excitement, and of course, the grief for the comrades who died in battle.

At this time, except for the two gates of the southern city, the rest of the city were closed, prohibiting anyone from entering and leaving, even if the two open gates were also forbidden for ordinary people to enter and exit.

The prefect Sun Kangzhou and the political envoy Zhao Jianji stood outside the south gate, looking at the wolf smoke everywhere and the corpses all over the ground, their eyes were full of sadness, and a large number of logistics teams formed by refugees around them were cleaning up the battlefield and collecting corpses.

A large number of wounded officers and soldiers were sent to the barracks to wait for treatment, and Cai Maode ignored his own pain and called on the doctors in the city to donate medicine to help with treatment, etc.

The streets and alleys of the city were crowded with ordinary people, a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers shed blood desperately on the city, the people were frightened and sleepless, at this time the sky had already dawned, hearing that the thief army had retreated, spontaneously came to the streets to reward the soldiers, and a large number of officers and soldiers who returned from outside the city entered the city, and they were welcomed with unprecedented warmth.

"Who is desperately trying to protect Taiyuan and protect our people from being ravaged by thieves, it is them, it is these good men of the Ming Dynasty......" Someone on the street shouted at the tired and bloodstained officers and soldiers on the return journey, and drove the people around them to greet the officers and soldiers.

At this time, the officers and soldiers who did not die were moved, moved by the enthusiasm of the common people, moved by their own bravery, and the pride of being soldiers in their hearts became stronger.

Yes, these soldiers also have a home behind them, with parents, wives and children, and even they themselves are just children!

After a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers were tired, and even Zhou Yuji couldn't hide his fatigue even though he was excited in his heart, and the rest of the soldiers who were fighting on the front line were even more unbearable, the only exception was Chang Yu.

Because of his extraordinary ability, his strength recovered very quickly, but even so, he was sleepy and yawned.

"General Zhou is mighty, General Zhou has worked hard, the people of Taiyuan City thank you......"

When Chang Yu, Zhou Yuji and a group of subordinates entered the city, the people along the way suddenly let out earth-shattering cheers, and some even knelt down and kowtowed.

That's right, Zhou Yuji is the god in their hearts, the god of war, the god of protection, in the face of the siege of hundreds of thousands of thieves, Zhou Yuji turned the tide with his own strength, defeated the thief army to protect the safety of hundreds of thousands of people in Taiyuan.

In the face of such enthusiastic cheers from the people, Zhou Yuji was a little excited, his eyes were a little moist, and he hugged his fists in all directions.

"I think that the people of Taiyuan should thank you the most" Tie Zhu muttered beside Chang Yu, with a look of unhappiness and grievance, the protector of Taiyuan City should be his factory governor!

The voice was not loud or small, but everyone heard it and agreed deeply, and even Zhou Yuji and his subordinates knew that Chang Yu was the boss behind the scenes.

It's just that Chang Yu is low-key, and few ordinary people know about his existence, even if they know that he is in Taiyuan, such as those gentry in the city, but who would have thought that this eunuch leader had fought wits and courage with the thieves, and personally went into battle to kill the enemy again and again, and finally defeated Li Zicheng was him!

Only the officers and soldiers in the army and the high-ranking officials in the government know how powerful this little eunuch is!

Zhou Yuji knew Chang Yu's temperament very well, but he still couldn't help but ridicule in a low voice: "Robbing the limelight of the factory supervisor is guilty of lowly duties."

Chang Yu rolled his eyes: "It's over, go to the clothes, hide your body and name, and our family is ten streets in this realm."

Everyone was stunned, then laughed, and said: "The realm of the factory governor is not comparable to ordinary people such as me, you are a master!" ”

The sycophant was used, Chang Yu smiled and said nothing, and continued to follow Zhou Yuji's side unhurriedly to enjoy the cheers of the people.

Unbeknownst to him, on the corner of the street, several women had not taken their eyes off him since they appeared.

Zhu Zhi'e put her hands on her chest, looking at Chang Yu on the horse from a distance, feeling that it was extremely difficult to breathe, the little eunuch with a hippie smile on weekdays, a little eunuch who was a hanger, at this time he was fully armored, heroic and upright, although he was covered in blood, but it was difficult to hide his powerful momentum, at this time no one would think that he was a eunuch, he was a hero, a god of war, and an invincible general who charged into battle!

Not only her, but even the several women on her side also had such bright eyes, including Zhu Xianxuan's fiancée Yang Jingxiu, Chang Yu's aura is too strong, at this time, I am afraid they don't remember Zhu Xianxuan at all.

Where did Zhu Xianxuan go?

Kneel in the Jin Palace!

This goods previously took two hundred Ding to go out of the city from the east gate to kill the enemy, and then followed and killed all the way to the city of Da Nan, until the thief army broke and fled.

He didn't lead his family to chase and kill the thief army, first, he was too tired, and second, the thief army broke away, and he was really excited to tell his mommy the news as soon as possible.

So his mommy made him kneel in front of his father's spirit card.

It wasn't until Chang Yu and Zhou Yuji arrived that Zhu Xianxuan was relieved, his eyes were bloodshot but he couldn't hide his excitement and asked Chang Yu how the results were? What are you doing in the palace?

Come to sleep!

Chang Yu told him very bluntly that the city was in chaos, the city tower was seriously damaged, and a large number of refugees were cleaning up on it, which was noisy.

And just after the war, all kinds of miscellaneous things have to be dealt with, and all the yamen are busy, if you ask Qingjing, there is no more suitable place than the Jin Palace, and the treatment is good here.

Zhou Yuji didn't come to sleep, at this time, the war had just passed, there were too many things to deal with, Zhu Xianxuan was the king of Taiyuan, these things had to be reported to him, and even some excerpts needed to be co-signed.

It happened that Zhu Xianxuan couldn't sleep excitedly, so the two whispered together, and Chang Yu had already found a side courtyard and fell asleep.

He slept soundly, but many officials in the city were anxious to deal with various matters, the battlefield outside the city had to be cleaned, the corpses had to be buried, and the city walls had to be cleaned...... It is also necessary to appease the people, build fires and make food, and do all kinds of logistics for the military.

The generals in the army were also busy saving the dead and helping the wounded, counting casualty reports, torturing prisoners, and finding out the movements of the thief army, patrolling the surrounding area, and so on.

When Chang Yu woke up, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and the next person brought food, and when he learned that Cai Maode was also in the house at this time, he accelerated the progress.

Zhu Xianxuan hadn't slept yet, his eyes were bloodshot and tired, but he was still excited, after all, he was woken up by Li Zicheng in the middle of the night these days, and even cried secretly.

Obviously, he is not alone, not only Zhou Yuji, but also Cai Maode, Wang Jimo and others, although these bigwigs of Taiyuan City are exhausted, but they seem to have a special spirit, and they all gather in the Jin Palace.

Although Cai Maode is thin and weak, his backbone is not ordinarily hard, he was smashed on the shoulder by a stone when he was defending in the city, and at this time he was wrapped in injuries, which made Chang Yu's respect for him a little more.

Wang Jimo was the governor of Xuanda, the nominal speaker, and this time he came to the palace with Cai Maode to discuss matters.

"The thief army can't escape, the people along the way are even worse, and it's hard to escape the catastrophe" Cai Maode's face was solemn and he sighed in a low voice! Everyone shook their heads with bitter expressions.

Li Zicheng since crossing the Yellow River, all the counties and counties he encountered were not resisted, and they all opened the city gates to surrender, in order to leave a good reputation, he did not plunder, at most only to some squires, and it was also in moderation, as long as those squires understood the eyes, he did not think much.

But this time he was hit hard in Taiyuan, he lost his armor and fled in embarrassment, and he didn't have time to take away the grain and grass and his baggage, so he became barefoot in a blink of an eye.

The soldiers are tired, the food and grass are exhausted, do you still care about the fig leaf at this time? Once this fig leaf is torn and plundered along the way, the people of the states and counties through which they pass will suffer!

"General Zhou, if we send chasing troops, can we alleviate the crisis in the south?" Wang Jimo frowned.

Zhou Yuji shook his head: "I'm afraid that it will be in vain, but it will be more aggressive to the thieves and soldiers, and the harm of dogs jumping over the wall is even worse, and at this time, the soldiers are tired and sleepy, and the pursuit is just empty talk, and there is not enough food and grass in the city, what should we chase?" ”

There was a sigh in the room, only Zhu Xianxuan's face remained unchanged, although his eyes were full of red silk, but the excitement was always undiminished, in his heart, he didn't care how the thief army harmed other places, as long as it was not in Taiyuan!
