Chapter 403: Li Dingguo's Confusion
Despair echoes in the battlefield, and it's a strange scene.
In despair, the remaining strong men of the Red Blood Army begged for death, and not only did not avoid the lead bullets shot by Ying Longjun's flintlock pistol, but took the initiative to meet them with their own flesh and blood.
In some places, there were also many strong men of the Red Blood Army who fought with those ordinary Ming soldiers who deliberately did not resist and met the steel knives cut by the Ming soldiers.
The Red Blood Army has been killed, and more than 60,000 Red Blood Army men have been killed in battle.
With the annihilation of the last strong man of the Red Blood Army, the entire battlefield was dyed red, and countless corpses were lying in a radius of more than a kilometer, and the smell of blood was permeated.
At this time, except for the Red Blood Army who died in battle, there was no trace of any thief soldiers, and Luo Rucai, the thief general who commanded these Red Blood Army, had already slipped away with his own soldiers in advance when the Red Blood Army was about to be wiped out.
No one paid attention to Luo Rucai, who was such a person, only staring at this battlefield.
"Dead, all dead!" Zhou Cao gritted his teeth and felt uncomfortable.
In this bloody battlefield, 60,000 strong soldiers of the Red Blood Army were annihilated in order to inflict heavy losses on the Ming army under the bloody persecution of Zhang Xianzhong.
In fact, Zhang Xianzhong did achieve his goal, the Ming army suffered nearly 30,000 casualties, and the Ying Long army also consumed a lot of ammunition, plus the nature of this war is too palpitating, the morale of the Ming army after the war is generally not high, and even a little low, anyone who slaughtered more than 60,000 ordinary people who were originally just defenseless will not be better, especially many Red Blood Army soldiers are fighting frantically, and the relieved expression after being killed echoes in the minds of Ming soldiers over and over again.
Looking at the bloody battlefield and the countless corpses on the battlefield, a sense of grief and indignation echoed among the Ming army.
Zhang Xianzhong is too poisonous!
"The Great War is far from over!" Zhou Cao and Qin Liangyu both had a depression in their hearts, they knew very well that Zhang Xianzhong's actions were not only related to this, but also a more tragic bloody battle next!
In the western sky, the afterglow of the setting sun gradually faded, and the sky slowly darkened, which gave an even more oppressive feeling to the already oppressive battlefield.
"Knock Knock"
The drums of war thunder and shake everywhere!
"The worst battle is about to begin!" Zhou Cao and Qin Liangyu were in a heavy mood.
A corner of Chengdu.
Li Dingguo also looked in the direction of the thundering of the war drums, and he was very familiar with the rhythm of such war drums, which was the war drums sent by the Great Western Army.
"Did they all die in battle?" Li Dingguo's eyes were full of sadness and confusion.
He grew up beside Zhang Xianzhong since he was a child, he knows Zhang Xianzhong's character too well, so he guessed the process of Zhang Xianzhong's plan, since the war drums of the troops were thundering, the result could only be that the 60,000 red blood army strong men were all forced to die, and the Ming army must have suffered heavy losses, and a more tragic war was about to begin.
Li Dingguo took a deep breath weakly, looked at the void and suddenly laughed miserably.
Hehe, more than 60,000 innocent people!
More than 60,000 innocent people!
Not even mercilessly slaughtered, but forced to their own death by an even more brutal way!
Li Ding's heart twitched, extremely painful, he was very confused, these years, in order to repay Zhang Xianzhong's nurturing grace, Zhang Xianzhong fought the world, to protect the Great Western Kingdom as his own responsibility, he also knew that Zhang Xianzhong's temperament was brutal, but he always hoped that Zhang Xianzhong could change one day, especially in recent years, Zhang Xianzhong was busy enjoying himself in the palace, and rarely went outside to make killings, he was still very confident that Zhang Xianzhong would change one day.
However, temperament is temperament, and since it is a murderous nature, how can it be so easy to change.
This time Zhang Xianzhong created more than 60,000 killings, or in such a cruel way, this undoubtedly hit Li Dingguo's heart hard, he didn't know how he could protect such a big western country, he couldn't find any reason to convince himself to protect the big western country, especially Zhang Xianzhong's sentence, he Li Dingguo was not a dog, but also shattered the trace of admiration for Zhang Xianzhong in his heart!
Li Ding's heart is hollow and extremely confused, he has been trying his best to protect the Great Western Kingdom from extinction all these years, and he no longer knows whether this is right or wrong.
"Someone, bring wine!" Li Dingguo shouted outside the door.
After a while, a guard brought the wine to Li Dingguo.
Although these guards were sent by Zhang Xianzhong to come and see Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo is still a nominal general of the Great Western Kingdom, and as long as he doesn't go out, the guards will follow his request.
The only thing Li Dingguo can think of at present is to use wine to drown his sorrows, he is not a sentimental person, but this time it hit him very hard, Zhang Xianzhong's methods this time are too ruthless, he simply takes human life as a grass, whether it is the people of Daxi or other people in Zhang Xianzhong's eyes, how can such a person rule one side, and Daxi with such a monarch should not exist.
Li Dingguo was depressed, Zhang Xianzhong had the grace to nurture him, and he couldn't betray Zhang Xianzhong, which was why he was confused and at a loss.
The situation outside the city is still developing.
The sound of the gates opening with a "squeak".
The east city gate, which had been sealed with stones, was opened, and more than 200,000 thieves and soldiers were exhausted, including nearly 10,000 Qing troops with red flags and iron horsemen.
"The thieves are coming, prepare for war! Hold on to the camp! Zhou Cao and Qin Liangyu ordered.
After the battle with those strong men of the Red Blood Army just now, the army was heavily damaged, with nearly 30,000 dead and wounded, and the morale was low, and the combat effectiveness had dropped too much, it was no longer enough to fight hard with Zhang Xianzhong, who had the help of the Qing army's iron cavalry, and the only way was to stick to the camp.
A total of 220,000 thieves, of which nearly 10,000 were Qing troops with red flags, Zhang Xianzhong did his best, determined to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army.
"Victory will definitely belong to me Zhang Xianzhong!" Zhang Xianzhong said with a smile.
At present, the Ming army has been hit hard, and has just experienced a big battle, it is the time of exhaustion, Zhang Xianzhong chose to do his best to go out of the city at this time to fight a decisive battle, that is, he has full certainty.
Zhang Xianzhong can't wait for the total annihilation of this Ming army to boost the prestige of the Great Western Kingdom!
Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are the same, always believe that they are the real son of heaven, now Li Zicheng is dead, of the, the righteous army is left with him Zhang Xianzhong, as long as he defeats the Ming army here, the world's opposition to the Ming Dynasty will definitely come to vote, and then the strength of the Great West Kingdom will inevitably skyrocket, sweeping the world to take the Ming Dynasty and replace it is not a problem.
