"Woohoo"

The desolate sound of the horn spread throughout the south gate, and Cao Bianjiao, who was cruising and chasing, heard the sound and moved, and the Longxiang brigade also entered along the south gate under the command of Liu Ximing.

Along the way, there were corpses of tomb guards and thieves everywhere.

Under the cover of night, thousands of officers and soldiers walked quickly along the light of the fire lit by the thieves' torches.

The Imperial Tomb City is vast, and there is nothing but the palace and the palace, unlike the streets of ordinary cities, where there are many dwellings blocking the way.

Liu Ximing estimated that there were about 20,000 people in Zhang Xianzhong's department before, and at least 10,000 were scattered by him and Cao Bianjiao outside the city, and now the thieves who are still in the imperial tomb can no longer form an overwhelming numerical advantage for themselves.

Thinking of this, he also let go of his hands and feet, and walked to the middle of the imperial tomb, where Long Xiang's brigade and Cao Bianjiao were separated, and he was solely responsible for clearing the thieves in the west of the city.

Zhang Xianzhong was already angry at this time, and the looting of the imperial mausoleum that he had captured was suddenly interrupted by the official army.

After a while, his rogues only had time to ransack some of the above-ground buildings in the Imperial Tomb.

Looking at the fifty-odd and half-old eunuchs guarding the tomb who were trembling in front of him, Zhang Xianzhong's eyes were full of disgust.

"Come on, cut down all these eggless geldings, let's see how you still fish and flesh the people, donkeys into your mother's."

"The king spares his life, the king spares his life."

A group of eunuchs guarding the tomb were so frightened that their souls were scattered, and their feces and urine flowed, and these thieves didn't care about this, like an eagle catching a chicken, they walked out of the hall with their hair buns.

Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo and others ran over in disgrace.

"Grandpa, except for those people in Sichuan, it seems that the people and horses brought by Cao Yanluo, our manpower has been washed away, let's withdraw quickly, it's too late if we don't leave."

"Into his grandmother", Zhang Xianzhong's eyes widened angrily, "I finally have to leave after eating a bite of meat, I am really unwilling to eat his son." ”

"Calculate, light the fire, if Lao Tzu doesn't succeed, don't call the emperor Lao'er better."

Zhang Xianzhong's method is also crooked, Liu Ximing and Cao Bianjiao originally came to save the great merit of the imperial tomb, where dare to let the imperial tomb be burned by thieves.

So one group of men and horses retreated while setting fires, while the other two groups had to fight the fire and pursue at the same time.

There is no excitement in the imperial tomb, and I don't know if the ancestors of the old Zhu family have been awakened.

has been busy for more than an hour, and the imperial tomb gradually quieted down.

In the main hall of the imperial mausoleum, Liu Ximing and Cao Bianjiao were standing solemnly.

Cao Bianjiao sighed, "Fortunately, when we came in time, the city was not destroyed much, and we can also give the court an errand." ”

Liu Ximing smiled bitterly, "The dignified royal family was actually touched by thieves on the ancestral tomb, and when this news spreads, even if we save the imperial tomb, the world will be greatly shaken." ”

"Hmph, the world should have been shaken a long time ago", Cao Bianjiao snorted coldly, his face full of complicated colors.

"Brother, brother, I have followed my uncle to fight in the north and south for many years, and the souls who died under my sword are not one thousand but eight hundred, and I have long seen through this world."

Liu Ximing was shocked, "Brother, you know this, why don't you think about the way back for yourself?" ”

Cao Bianjiao smiled, "The back road, where did the back road come from, in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, the imperial court, and the court, we are just savages who lick blood from the knife edge, and you dare to go west?" If this is the case, I am afraid that I will be arrested and imprisoned immediately. ”

Liu Ximing was silent for a long time before patting Cao Bianjiao's shoulder covered with blood.

"Don't worry, with my brother here, I will definitely find a plan for you."

"Hahaha", Cao Bianjiao grinned, "Brother, I believe what you say, how long has it been since you saved me, and now I have such a great achievement, brother, I listen to you." ”

"By the way, after this battle, what should you do if Your Majesty lets you out?"

The corners of Liu Ximing's mouth were slightly Yang, "Naturally, I refused, the fame should be taken from the science field, if I am opportunistic this time, although it can still go now, but after a long time, it is inevitable to be rejected by the officialdom, and it is not the ambition of the younger brother to work all my life." ”

With the strange smell produced by the mixture of the bloody gas all over the ground and the burning aroma in the main hall, Liu Ximing and Cao Bianjiao had a rare conversation between men.

There is a good saying that only those who have carried guns together can be regarded as real brothers, and now the two look at the blood on each other's bodies, and they both have a sense of pity for each other in their hearts.

"Second brother, the corpses in the city have been cleaned up."

Li Biao broke the atmosphere in the hall, and made a throat-cutting gesture as he walked in, "The thieves who didn't die have all made up for it, what should I do now?" ”

"Are there still eunuchs alive?"

Hearing Li Biao's words, Liu Ximing suddenly remembered that it was best to have a few living mouths, otherwise who would prove his words.

"There are two more who are not dead."

"Hurry up and see if we can save lives." , Liu Ximing hurriedly arranged.

Although Liang Jun didn't come, there was no shortage of gold sore medicine in these pro-guard groups.

After arranging these, Liu Ximing looked at Cao Bianjiao with high spirits, "There is more than one thief, there is still a large team of people rushing to Fengyang Mansion City, we must not slack off." ”

"Brother, I want to ask my brother's subordinates to work together to strengthen the city's defenses and prevent the thieves from coming back."

"Okay, that's the reason, I'll arrange it."

Cao Bianjiao did not hesitate to take Liu Ximing's suggestion, turned around and walked out of the main hall to arrange the deployment.

Liu Ximing took Li Biao and others to observe around the city, looking for a suitable artillery position that had been defended.

On Zhang Xianzhong's side, although most of his subordinates were saved and withdrew from the imperial tomb, it was not until the next morning that he successively gathered the fleeing stragglers back and returned to Fengyang again.

At this time, Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, and other troops had already stationed in Fengyang, and the streets were full of robbers and thieves, and the city was extremely chaotic.

Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates had returned to the city, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng all went out of the city to greet them in person.

"Zhang Huzi, you kid did a great job, and you will rob such a big piece of fat."

Li Zicheng saw from a distance that everyone behind Zhang Xianzhong was approving silk and hanging satin, and many things were obviously royal things, and he was jealous in his heart.

"Those who see it have a share, and your little eunuchs and drummers will give it to me."

Just finished laughing, Li Zicheng waved his hand, and wanted his subordinates to snatch a few little eunuchs behind Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Xianzhong scolded directly with his sleeves upward: "Straight lady thief, what are you doing, this is all Lao Tzu desperately snatched back, thousands of people have died, do you want it?" Get out of the way. ”

Li Zicheng's face instantly wiped off, in front of so many people, Zhang Xianzhong said this way, it was simply not to give him face.

Before he could attack, Gao Yingxiang saw that something was wrong.

Although Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates looted a lot, they were all depressed, coupled with the color of fireworks, could it be that there was something wrong?

"Zhangbeard, what's going on?"

Gao Yingxiang raised his whip and pointed behind Zhang Xianzhong, his face full of doubt.

"Why, can you still be beaten by a bunch of eggs guarding the tomb?"

As soon as he talked about this, Zhang Xianzhong was in a state of fire.

"Grandma who entered his mother, she was originally guarding the mausoleum, and I didn't pay attention to Lao Zhang at all, who knew that a few people would rob me halfway."

"There seems to be Cao Bianjiao's dog mongrel inside, Lao Tzu lost half of his net worth to exchange for such a little thing, you still want to rob me, but there is no door."

Li Zicheng frowned, Zhang Xianzhong's mouthful of Lao Tzu had already made him very unhappy, and the reluctance of such a few little eunuchs to give it made him feel embarrassed.

At this time, when he heard Zhang Xianzhong pouring bitter water, Li Zicheng didn't say anything on his face, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

Gao Yingxiang had a thoughtful look on his face.

"How many people did Cao Bianjiao bring?"

Zhang Xianzhong was still in a state of shame and anger, and he didn't pay attention to Gao Yingxiang's words, just scolding himself.

Sun Kewang hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "Back to King Chuang, there are at least more than 5,000 people. ”

"Hahaha, God help me", Gao Yingxiang looked up to the sky and laughed, "Cao Yanluo, like his dead ghost uncle, is the one who killed the most of my rebel brothers, and now that he is in the place of death, we just happen to be caught in a net." ”

Li Zicheng and the others all heard the sound and looked over.

"King Chuang, the men and horses under the command of Cao Yanluo are brave and good at fighting, and they are all cavalry, we can't stop it if we want to, how can we say that he fell into death?"

Gao Yingxiang pointed in the direction of the imperial tomb and laughed.

"That imperial mausoleum is where he is buried!"

"If you let Chongzhen Lao'er know that Cao Yanluo failed to guard his ancestral tomb, how do you say Cao Yanluo will be disposed of?"

"Hahaha, I definitely want his head", Li Zicheng said happily.

Gao Yingxiang smiled and shook his head, "It's not the emperor Lao'er, it's us who want his life, in this case, Cao Bianjiao categorically doesn't dare to abandon the city and flee, we are so powerful, are you still afraid that he will not be able to do it?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong snorted and smiled, and finally asked a sharp question.

"It's a good idea to break into the king, so who is going to take the lead, I can say it first, I only have 10,000 people under me, and I won't go to this head."
