After Wang Chengen defeated more than a dozen Dashun troops of different sizes along the way, he was getting closer and closer to Chaoyangmen, and Zhu Youzhen could almost hear the shouts of the new army in Beijing more than a thousand steps away. Wang Chengen was also excited, since ancient times, the merit has been higher than the rescue, and when he arrives in Liudu, he is only afraid that he can compete with the father-in-law of Sanbao, right?

Just as Wang Chengen was fantasizing about enjoying the treatment of his ancestor Sanbao father-in-law, suddenly a burst of gunshots like fried beans woke up his dream.

If it weren't for the white smoke rising from the houses on both sides of the bamboo pole alley, Wang Chengen would never have imagined that his invincible internal exercise army would lose more than 20 people here. At this time, there were suddenly loud shouts from the houses on both sides of the alley: "Chongzhen is here, don't let Chongzhen run!" "There's a lot of silver here!" "A lot of Nanban gold coins!" ”

"Straight sissy thief! Our **** ancestors are eighteen generations! Wang Chengen scolded, "Quick, hurry up and send these rotten maggots away, and escort the holy car to Chaoyangmen!" ”

Just when Wang Dehua was frightened by the momentum of the Dashun army that had just arrived, Wang Chengen showed a sinister smile easily, because he found that these people were dressed nondescriptly, wearing the big red mandarin duck jacket uniform of the Ming army, but they were holding the banner of the Dashun army, and what they were holding was the fire gun of Nanzhong. Obviously, these people must be the family members of some general, who want to make a profit.

Phew! Wang Chengen secretly took a sip, and said in his heart that you are blind, even you who are afraid of the soft and afraid of the hard, dare to come to brush the tiger's whiskers? Thinking of this, Wang Chengen rushed to his chest with a sense of pride, and he shouted in a loud voice that could hardly be heard in the characteristic shrill voice of eunuchs: "The first, second, and third columns listen to orders, advance slowly, and without the order of my father, you are not allowed to stop, and you are not allowed to shoot." ”

With Wang Chengen's order, the new army of internal exercises marched towards the army in front of them, I have to say that Wang Chengen still has a set of training, these internal exercises of the new army are neat, and they have walked twenty steps without adjusting the queue, this achievement is enough to make Qi Jiguang full of face. Looking at the neat advance of the three new columns, Wang Chengen confidently said to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, it's just some thieves and rats, and the small ones will fight in two rows, and the road will be opened." ”

Chongzhen looked at the neat queue of the new army of Neicao and his face was full of relief, he said to Wang Chengen: "The new army of Neicao is all loyal and patriotic, you have to take note of their merits, and when you arrive in Nanjing, I will give them the official number, how do you think it is called the Loyal and Righteous Army?" “

Just when Chongzhen Wang Chengen was talking, the three new columns of the army were getting closer and closer to the army opposite, eighty steps, seventy steps, and it was sixty steps, but Wang Chengen did not give the order to stop advancing, and on the other side, there was no movement. However, Wang Chengen muttered a little, sixty steps, which is basically a distance that can only be tolerated by Jingying, whose family is opposite? I can be so calm.

The distance soon reached fifty steps, but there was still no movement on the opposite side, just when Wang Chengen was about to give the order to raise the gun, a huge change occurred, only to see the houses on both sides of the alley, I don't know when a large number of firecrackers appeared, they quickly raised the firecrackers to aim, with a sharp whistle, the firecrackers on the house opened fire together, a burst of white smoke rose into the air, as the smoke dissipated, dozens of corpses appeared in the queue of the new army. Before they could recover from the blow, the sharp-eyed man noticed that the opposite team had taken ten steps forward at some point, and at this time, they also raised their firearms. There was no suspense about the rest of the matter, the three columns of musketeers fired a salvo with the formation that the Beijing camp was famous for, and with the dissipation of the gunsmoke, the lives of the three columns of the new army also dissipated, although there were still people groaning, but they couldn't survive.

Seeing the three new armies disappear in a short period of time, Wang Chengen almost slashed himself in distress, but compared with the loss, how to recover the wasted time is a more fatal problem. Wang Chengen knows very well that every second that passes by means of danger. At this critical juncture, Wang Chengen showed good psychological qualities, and he ordered the guerrillas to quickly occupy the surrounding houses and suppress their side shots with quick grabbing. After the guerrillas succeeded, Wang Chengen once again ordered to send three new columns, but this time, they stopped at a distance of sixty paces from the opponent, and then opened fire without hesitation, and a dense rain of bullets flew mercilessly towards the enemy troops on the opposite side.

But unfortunately, the other side seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and just as they raised their guns, Qi Shushu fell to the ground and dodged these fatal blows. Wang Chengen slapped his thigh angrily, and at the same time felt that something was wrong. These quick robberies, but the secret weapon sent by Liang Guogong, not to mention the general Ming army, even among Liang Guogong's subordinates, there are not many people who know that there is this kind of quick robbery, how did these people come up with a way to crack it? Don't...... Wang Chengen couldn't help but lock the target of his suspicion on Liang Guogong, but he overturned this idea in an instant, because it was simply funny, Liang Guogong wanted to be the emperor, just say it, where is the use of playing this set? In addition, no matter who is behind the scenes, the top priority now is to get through this bamboo pole alley as soon as possible.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Chengen ordered: "Alternate cover, approach the enemy army." Hearing Wang Chengen's order, the new army in these three columns couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, because this had appeared in the previous training, although it was not explicitly stated later, but the whip had already educated them, and the content behind it was: bayonet.

Hand-to-hand combat is the most brutal and effective way of fighting, and a person in the West who opposes the theory of hand-to-hand combat has said that most bayonet charges will be defeated by continuous fire, but what he did not say is that the rest is that bayonet charges quickly crush the enemy. However, no matter which one it is, if the two sides are close in strength, then the casualties of the attacking force will not be low. Therefore, the new army of internal exercises all thought back to the past for a while, and then, they all shook their heads, thinking about what they were doing, anyway, we poor people were originally people who had died more than once. When we were cleansed, we had already died once! Now that people are just dying like lights going out, with Liang Guogong and his old man, his family can get benefits, and it's okay.

Although the wave-like cover shooting, the three columns of the new army soon reached a distance of thirty paces from the opponent, at this distance, the shooting with the gun is basically meaningless, although it can kill many people, but it will not be able to prepare for hand-to-hand combat, therefore, the higher the quality of the opponent, the more you don't have to worry about being shot by the fire. Wang Chengen was even more sure of this, so when he reached a distance of thirty paces, he shouted in an excited voice like an imperial army having seen a flower girl: "Little ones, get on the bayonet." ”

With Wang Chengen's order, there was a sound of neat bayonets entering the seats, and then, the three columns of new troops killed loudly, and the fierce tigers rushed down the mountain towards the enemy army. On the other side, they finally stood up, but instead of rushing forward, they scattered to both sides of the road. Just when the charging new army was wondering, several rows of spearmen rushed out from the rear of the enemy army, and these people also rushed in a neat queue, in a uniform line, the difference was that the pike dart in their hands was much longer than the thorn.

The result is conceivable, the charging new army suffered a big loss, but Wang Chengen looked at the new army column that fell into passivity, but thoughtfully, suddenly, he shouted sharply: "Little ones, the time has come to be loyal to the emperor's grandfather, and use the tricks passed on to you by the grandfather of the country." ”

Accompanied by Wang Chengen's order, I saw more than 100 new soldiers neatly put on their bayonets, and then, with their bodies as support points, their whole bodies collided with the fire guns with their stabs. This trick, if the British in later generations saw it, they would definitely scold the copycat piracy, because this is the bayonet technique that the British became famous, and the fight is a life for a life, but although this trick is a trick, it also has to be used by the user to risk his life, and it is very coincidental that these new troops are not bad for courage now.

Facts have proved that the British's bayonet technique, as long as it is used properly, is indeed amazingly powerful, although the opposite side occupies the advantage of casualty data, but is quickly defeated by the life-for-life style of fighting. Wang Chengen took advantage of the situation and ordered the other new internal troops to follow, and he himself drew his sword and charged. This group of enemy troops was beaten by Wang Chengen's fierce offensive, but there was no sign of panic, but it became even more crazy. I saw that they couldn't maintain the line, and they were in a group of three or five people, entangled with the new army of Neicao, and even after their arms and legs were broken, they still tried their last strength to assassinate the hairbolt. Although these efforts could not prevent the victory of the new army, they greatly delayed their final victory.

However, Wang Chengen didn't feel anything, because he stood on a high place and looked out through the fence of Nanshui Pass, and he could already see the smoke and dust stirred up by the cavalry wall of the Beijing camp.

However, soon he couldn't laugh, because from the horse road, a group of cavalry exactly like the Beijing cavalry appeared, and they rushed to the Beijing cavalry without hesitation.

However, Wang Chengen was not discouraged, although accompanied by the cavalry of the Earthquake Mountain Battalion, a group of infantry also stopped in front of him, but Wang Chengen was confident that the tenacious army just now had defeated himself, could the small thief infantry still be able to stop him? Thinking of this, Wang Chengen gritted his teeth and shouted: "Little ones, line up and follow my father-in-law to kill the thieves." “

"Follow the ancestor and kill the thief!"

"Follow the ancestor to kill the thief!"

The remaining hundred and ten eunuchs roared from their chests in cracked voices. They have never been looked down upon as human beings, but in this flesh-and-blood battlefield, they have found their blood and dignity as a human being, a man!

Facing the remnants of the new army of internal exercises, the more than 100 eunuchs held the firearms that seemed to be able to be fired non-stop, and took a life-to-life fighting style, and swooped forward.

"Stick to the point!"

"The wind is tight, out of the water! Water! ”

"Hurry up and report to the big boss!"

From time to time, shouts came from the smoke-filled houses, revealing the difficult situation of this unit.

"Alas! If only there were artillery! ”

Seeing that he was driven out of the private houses by his disciples and grandchildren, but he was stubborn and unrelenting, forcing his internal eunuchs to fight with them step by step, Wang Chengen couldn't help but regret in his heart, if only he had artillery at hand at this time!

"Even some ponytail grenades are good! You can let the little ones explode a path all the way, so it won't be so difficult! ”

Wang Chengen only hated that he didn't bring a cannon, and countless fans of the protagonist's time and space were also fantasizing that if Wang Chengen brought a Fran machine at that time, even if there was only one Fran machine, he would keep bombarding it out, with a distance of less than hundreds of steps between the two sides, just a few cannons, he could blast a road and protect Chongzhen to break out of the encirclement and join the Beijing camp.

However, Chongzhen, who was too guarded by four or five internal guards, didn't think so. He just saw that the houses blocking his escape were overcome, and the road to the outside world was extending outward inch by inch, and he couldn't help but feel emotional.

"Big companion, I suddenly remembered one thing, there was a person named Tong Guan under Song Huizong back then, and he was a little similar to you."

As soon as Chongzhen's words came out, Wang Chengen, who was swinging his sword to supervise the battle, was so frightened that his soul flew and cold sweat broke out all over his body, "The slave deserves death!" He couldn't take care of it anymore, and as soon as his knees were weak, he wanted to kneel, but he was pulled by Chongzhen.

"Emperor, the slave and maid are dead, I don't know what the slave and maid did inappropriately, so that the imperial grandfather thinks that the slave and the maid are traitors?"

"Companion, how can I think that you are a traitor, that is the Tong Guan, how can you say that you are a traitor? I have seen through it now, Tong Guan is a loyal minister, and you are also a real loyal minister. When Song Huizong abdicated and the Jin army went south, he wanted to escape, he had no power and no power at that time, and he followed him, wasn't it the six thieves who didn't know how to please the new king? Why are the people who please the new king, the people of the foreign tribe who bend their knees are written in the history books again and again as loyal ministers and good generals, and those who are loyal to the old lord and follow life and death are scolded as traitors! I didn't understand it before, but now I understand it, because only in this way can I cover up their dirty deeds. And after a long time, the black and white of truth and falsehood will be reversed, and I can assert that if our monarchs and ministers can't rush out, I will be a gutless rat in the book, and you, the big companion, are the traitors who betrayed me. ”

"Emperor, no matter how the slave is written in the book, but please ask the emperor to retract the bad luck just now, what does it mean that you can't rush out? Grandpa Huang has us by his side, and the opposite side of us, at most, is the elite of the Beijing camp, and we will definitely be able to rush out. I just hope that when the emperor's grandfather arrives in Nanjing, he must wash away the grievances of us people, especially Grandpa Wei, who is also a loyal minister. ”

Wang Chengen talked about Wei Zhongxian, and he couldn't help but make Chongzhen's heart gloomy, and bursts of shame and shame came up together. "Yes, I am indeed ashamed of my father-in-law Wei, he held power as a poor and lowly person, raised military salaries and dismissed mediocre officials, and the war situation in Liaodong gradually stabilized. Although there are disasters in the sea, there is money and food for relief, and it has not become a prairie fire. However, I first mistakenly killed Gonggong Wei, and then mistakenly believed Yuan Chonghuan, causing the Liao thieves to harass the Jingshi and the exiles to erode the Central Plains. Later, he was even more bewitched and restrained by the East and East Forests of the DPRK, and he did not use loyal ministers and good generals like Liang Guogong, and he delayed the fighter again and again. As a result, more than 100,000 tigers died in Guangning, Ma Kecao died with hatred, and even the county lord of Ha Jing almost died. I sometimes think that if the imperial brother and Gonggong Wei stood in front of me, and scolded me for being a traitor and a traitor, what would I say? ”

"Emperor, the past has passed and cannot be recovered, but there is a lot to be done in the future. When His Majesty arrives in the capital, he can rely on the Beijing camp and the new army of Neicao, plus the elite of the Liang Guogong Department, to repay the money, food, armor and equipment, and with the manpower of Jiangnan, not to mention 100,000 tigers, one million is not impossible. As for Ma Ke and the others, His Majesty can take more care of their families. In short, the grandfather can rely on the south of the Yangtze River to determine the Ming Dynasty, why can't the emperor clean up the mountains and rivers again? As long as we arrive in Jiangnan safely, everything can start again. ”

After a slight pause, Wang Chengen seemed to have made a lot of determination, and then said to Jin with a solemn face: "Emperor, after all these twists and turns, the emperor should be able to see who should be a confidant, who should be believed, and who should not be used." When I arrived in the capital, the slave maid was foolish, and I must not trust the reader, what the grandfather said back then, only the scholar should not talk about state affairs, and the slave and maid now think about it, it is really a wise saying! It is necessary to soothe the heart of Liang Guogong, thinking that he is the pillar of the country, and he must not let the Donglin traitor and one party dominate the dynasty again! ”

The master and servant said their heartfelt words to themselves, but they completely forgot that this was a battlefield full of dangers and rapid changes!

From the top of the city, a sentry camp team that had rushed to the vicinity of the Chaoyang Gate Tower, led by a sentry with sharp eyes, saw at a glance the small team that was struggling to move forward under the city. I also saw the soldiers of the Dashun Army who were beaten back step by step by their crazy breakthrough action and wore the uniform of the Ming Army.

Judging from the color of their clothes, the weapons in their hands, and the noble man who was desperately guarding the team, this information silently shows that this small team has a lot of oil and water! Otherwise, they would not have rushed out so desperately, and the Beijing camp team outside the city would not have fought with our Zhenshan camp almost frantically.

"Come down to town with me! Stop this thief! ”

The sentry officer at the head beckoned to several of his officers in a low voice.

However, from the horse road to the city, and then from the horse road to Chongzhen and the others to break through the key rush, when they rushed to the position, I was afraid that Chongzhen had already joined the Jingying soldiers and horses near Nanshui Pass.

"Come down to town with me!"

The sentry at the head looked at the city wall slightly, wrapped the wool on his body, held the helmet with his hand, and took the lead to jump down from the city!

Behind him, the soldiers and horses of the Earthquake Mountain Battalion also jumped down one after another. With the help of the snow on the ground, although the body was dizzy, fortunately there were not too many casualties. The sentry officer at the head didn't care about checking the casualties, so he just ordered his officers to hurry up and prepare to meet the enemy!

This small team has become an iron latch, firmly locking Chongzhen's last hope of getting out of the city! Let the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp outside the city desperately rush into the city, turning the hope of Wang Chengen and others in the city trying to get out of the city into a bubble.

Seeing the eunuchs around him fall one by one on the way forward, and looking at the increasing banners of the Dashun Army on the head of the city, Chongzhen couldn't help but let out a long shout: "Big companion, it seems that you and my monarch and ministers are here today!" ”

Wang Chengen has another insight.

"Emperor, if you want to die for the community, this place is not the place where you should stay! Taking advantage of the chaos here, the slave and maid accompanied the emperor back to the palace! Waiting for the emperor to ascend to heaven! ”

Looking at the more and more banners of the Dashun Army on the city tower, and the banners of the Ming Army thrown down from the city by the soldiers of the Dashun Army, Wang Chengen felt sad in his heart. The shouts of the cavalry outside the city also faded away and gradually disappeared.

"Big companion, let's go back to the palace! Originally, I wanted to break through for the prince and their escape, but at this time, I thought that the prince and they had already left the palace to a safe place. After the country has a future, why should I pity myself in vain?! ”

When the Chaoyang Gate Tower changed hands, Chongzhen and Wang Chengen took a desperate look at the city tower, and rode west to the palace. (To be continued.) )
