Chapter 360: The Story of the Bandits in Henan

There are three forces in Henan, Wu Sangui based on Luoyang, Li Zicheng based on Nanyang and Nanyang based on Beidashan, and Red Lady based on Xinyang and Runan.

Among them, Wu Sangui and the Red Lady are evenly divided because they have the support of the Manchu Qing or the Ming Dynasty behind them, and Li Zicheng's power is the worst, but Li Zicheng's army is the most, with 200,000 troops, 60,000 more than the second most Wu Sangui, and 70,000 more than the third most Red Lady!

To say that since Li Zicheng has the most troops, why is the force the worst, such a contrast.

That's because almost all of the 200,000 troops under Li Zicheng's command are rabble forcibly recruited into the army, lacking training, lacking weapons and armor, and even more lacking food, Li Zicheng only accounts for a quarter of Henan's Kankan place, but he has an army of 200,000, and the food is not edible at all, basically there are three days to eat two meals, and the next day is a day to eat one meal, that's all, the key is to eat gruel!

It's no wonder, the army raised in this way is inferior to the rabble, how can it be the opponent of Wu Sangui who holds the Guanning army and the Red Lady army with the strong support of the Ming Dynasty, so that Li Zicheng often has to give up Nanyang and hide in the mountains under the attack of Wu Sangui or the Red Lady, and then wait for Wu Sangui or the Red Lady to come out and reoccupy Nanyang, such a miserable mix is no different from a mountain bandit!

Runan, the Red Women's Army camp!

The thirteen armies all gathered in the school field, and the red lady solemnly boarded the platform!

"There is news from the imperial court that the emperor has sent the Fifth Army of Yinglong Army into Henan to assist the general to encircle and suppress the thief Li Zicheng, and the generals are ready to attack Nanyang again with the general at any time, vowing to take Li Zicheng's head!" The red lady is dressed in a red military uniform, and her heroic posture is compelling, just like a Yang Men female general!

"Long live the emperor, exterminate the thieves! Exterminate the rebels! The 130,000 army roared, and the momentum was shocking.

"Hmph, Li Zicheng, see if you don't die this time?" The red lady's eyebrows jumped, muttering to herself, and the smile on her face was a little cold!

The red lady did work under Li Zicheng back then, but in fact, she has always been not optimistic about Li Zicheng, and what Li Zicheng did after gaining power was even more unbearable. Moreover, Li Zicheng humiliated her back then, so that she almost suffered a great humiliation, so in the face of Li Zicheng, she did not have any affection at all, and every time she sent troops to Nanyang, she tried her best to exterminate Li Zicheng, but it was a pity that Nanyang was close to the mountains in the north, and she returned several times in vain.

As for Li Zicheng, although he persevered under the attack of the Red Lady every time, the Red Lady attacked him many times, which also made him hate the Red Lady, the reason why he chose to establish a foundation in Nanyang back then, in addition to looking at the natural terrain around Nanyang, was to rely on the Dongshan of Henan to make a comeback, but I didn't expect that now because of the Red Lady, the power is limited to the Nanyang area, and it cannot be developed!

At the boundary of Xinyang, the Fifth Army of the Yinglong Army under the leadership of Zhang Kuishan is only more than 100 miles away from Runan, as long as there is one more day, it will be able to go to Runan to meet with the army of the Red Lady, and then send troops to Nanyang to attack Li Zicheng!

Ying Longjun is well-trained and experienced in a hundred battles, even if he is on the march, he is still in a neat formation and murderous!

"Drive!" Zhang Kuishan rode on a war horse, urging back and forth!

At this moment, the heat in Zhang Kuishan's heart was indescribable, which made his blood boil.

Li Zicheng, the first major thief who swept the world back then, commanded millions of elites, the first emperor was martyred because of him, and now the emperor actually sent his fifth army to encircle and suppress, not to mention any monstrous achievements, as long as he succeeds in exterminating Li Zicheng, he Zhang Kuishan will definitely leave a name in history!

"Quick! Artillery baggage keep up! ”

Zhang Kuishan can't wait to go to Nanyang to start a war with Li Zicheng!

Nanyang, the news that Ying Long's army entered Henan, Li Zicheng naturally did not know.

"Ying Longjun!" The moment Li Zicheng got the spies' return, he couldn't help but be furious!

The most important thing is that the prestige of Ying Long's army is so powerful that even the 800,000 army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was defeated, and a year ago, Ying Long's army was even more in Jiujiang, under the city of Nanjing, and it was only one Ying Long army to defeat King Fu's 300,000 army and King Lu's army of more than 200,000. Although Li Zicheng didn't look down on the rabble temporarily formed by King Fu and King Lu, it was an army of two or three hundred thousand, and it can be imagined that the combat effectiveness of the Ying Long army was conceivable.

Li Zicheng's sharp eyes flowed, just the Red Lady Army was difficult for him to deal with, and now with the addition of a fifth army of the Ying Long Army, he was not an opponent, he had to retreat into the mountains and consume with the Ying Long Army!

"Red lady, this slut! I really regretted that I didn't take her down at the first time, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will let her survive and not die! Thinking of the Red Lady, Li Zicheng was immediately so angry that his liver hurt, his hatred for the Red Lady now has exceeded the hatred for Wu Sangui and the Manchu Qing, he always thinks that if it weren't for the Red Lady's hindrance in the past few years, he Li Zicheng would have swept the world in a comeback, and he is a slut of the Red Lady!

"Li Guo, how is the camp in the mountain being built now?" Li Zicheng looked at his son Li Guo!

Li Guo is Li Zicheng's righteous son, one of the six famous generals of Dashun that year, loyal to Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng is the only one general under Li Guo, if it were not for Li Guo's constant support in recent years, Li Zicheng would definitely be worse than today!

"Back to Your Majesty, the camp in the mountain has been expanded, the defense on all sides is suddenly perfect, it is extremely difficult for the enemy to attack it, and at the same time, there is enough food for the army for a year and a half!" Li Guo replied.

As early as when Li Zicheng established the foundation in Nanyang, he did not give up the foundation in the mountain, and has been vigorously building for several years, whether it is defense or so on, it is more and more perfect, there is the most important foundation for Li Zicheng's survival, as long as the camp in the mountain is still there, he Li Zicheng will have a chance to make a comeback.

In the face of the union of Ying Longjun and the Red Lady Army, Li Zicheng has no intention of resisting, he only thinks about spending money with Ying Longjun and the Red Lady Army in the mountains, anyway, he Li Zicheng has rebelled for more than ten years, and he has been consumed like this, and he once swept the world with Daming to become the overlord, in his eyes, now he is just the same as back then, he believes that he will eventually sweep the world again with the same energy consumption!

Li Zicheng nodded, gritted his teeth, and laughed slightly hideously: "Hahahaha, you can come!" I, Li Zicheng, can't be killed, and one day I will make a comeback again! ”

"Da Ming, Manchu Qing, Red Lady! None of you are my opponent of Li Zicheng! ”
