The moon is dark and the wind is high.

Li Zicheng's 300,000-strong army moved violently, and actually wanted to break through overnight.

More than 30,000 people from Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and other Ming Dynasty generals gathered in Elephant Mountain, which is the northernmost part of the Shaanxi-Sichuan border, facing Zhao Shujiao, which is the focus of breaking through to the north, and the Ming army is also very tightly arranged.

Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and the others looked at the direction of the Ming army's position across the mountains and forests, and their expressions were very solemn.

Tang Channel: "The Ming Dynasty has deployed more than 200,000 troops in Shaanxi, even if we break through, we will face the encirclement and suppression of all kinds of armies, and Your Majesty will not give up after all." ”

Wu Sangui's face was full of wind and frost, and he was no longer the martial champion and high-spirited young man he was at the beginning.

He said with a worried expression: "Going to Yungui is indeed the best choice, Your Majesty is in such a hurry to break through, I am even more worried about Your Majesty's condition." ”

Tang Tong shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is in the prime of life, so it shouldn't be a big problem." Let's think about how to break through. ”

The siege network of the Ming Dynasty was very tight, and it was clear that they would be trapped here. Now it is clear that the morale is greatly boosted and the spirit is high, and Li Zicheng will be annihilated here in one fell swoop. On the other hand, Li Zicheng's army was demoralized, people's morale was fluctuating, and deserters were there every day.

One positive and one negative, where is it so easy to break through?

Wu Sangui looked to the right-hand side, where Li Zicheng and the other people were all moving quickly, preparing to break through.

After a while, a few lieutenants came behind Wu Sangui and said in a low voice: "My lord, those people are grabbing things, and they almost fight." ”

The other said: "It was the tall general who blocked it, I heard that it was robbing women and food." ”

Tang Tong sneered and said, "A rogue is a rogue and a dog can't change eating." ”

Although they surrendered to Li Zicheng, as the generals of the Ming Dynasty, they looked down on these very much, even Li Zicheng's pro-army was the same, they were all bandits in nature and had no military discipline.

Wu Sangui was deeply worried in his heart and wanted to find a way for himself, and he was already thinking about whether to stand on his own after breaking through.

Wu Sangui suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said, "Don't care about these for now, wait for the order, and prepare to break through." ”

Tang Tong and the others could only nod silently, waved their hands and ordered the armies to prepare.

On the other side, Li Zicheng's army, which had been monitoring and infiltrating countless Ming troops inside, soon got the news.

The Military Intelligence Department reported all kinds of news to Lu Xiangsheng as soon as possible.

Lu Xiangsheng had already sent Zhao Shujiao, Wu Sangui and others out, and when he heard the news, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Are you saying that Li Zicheng is ready to break through head-on and enter Shaanxi again?" Lu Xiangsheng's face was strange.

The officer of the Military Intelligence Department was also a little puzzled and said, "Yes." It stands to reason that this should not be, because it will be a decisive battle against our strongest army. Moreover, it was still a big night, even if Li Zicheng was confused, those subordinates should not be confused. ”

A frontal breakthrough on the big night, even a military idiot would not do this, it is no different from suicide!

Lu Xiangshengzai thought carefully and said, "Keep staring." The herald ordered all the armies to stand by and not move for the time being. If Li Zicheng really bumps into him head-on, don't be polite. ”

Although he felt that it was strange, Lu Xiangsheng still decided to respond to all changes with the same and follow his established plan instead of dancing with Li Zicheng.

The Ming army quickly got the news, and many people were confused, not knowing what Li Zicheng was going to do.

However, the Ming army's encirclement network was very tight, and no matter how Li Zicheng went, he could easily deal with it.

As both sides moved, it was as if a major battle was about to break out at night.

But before Li Zicheng's army could break through, civil strife suddenly broke out.

Ge Liyan and others did not belong to Li Zicheng's 'descendants', they were forced by the officials and soldiers to come here, and they found out that Gao Yigong and others were running against the poison, and they immediately knew that they were fooled and wanted to find Li Zicheng's theory.

Gao Yigong and the others naturally did not dare to take out the unconscious Li Zicheng, and the fierce conflict almost turned into a rush.

Then all the other people found out that they had been deceived, including Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others, and the army of more than 300,000 people was suddenly in chaos, and the mountains were lined up, and they almost fought bloody battles with each other.

Gao Yigong and the others didn't expect to be exposed so quickly, so they gritted their teeth and ignored it, taking 50,000 people and breaking through in the direction of Sichuan.

People from all walks of life knew that they were deceived, and they wanted to be cannon fodder after Li Zicheng ran away.

Those who are calm want to control the situation and can't do it when they call for calmness, it's too messy!

Wu Sangui and Tang Tong were dumbfounded, is this the 'Great Shun Army'? How could such a thing happen at such a critical moment?

Wu Sangui looked at Tang Tong and the others, and after being stunned, they looked at each other.

What do they do?

Tang Tong gritted his teeth and said: "Shaanxi must not go, otherwise Lu Xiangsheng will definitely chase and intercept us, and we will not stop until we are killed." Huguang can't either, and now I heard that Xiangyang is also stationed in the Ming army, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It was only possible to enter Guizhou from Sichuan and go to Yunnan, where the Ming army was weak. ”

Wu Sangui hated it so much and regretted it in his heart, why did he surrender to Li Zicheng in a daze!

There was no other way, except to flee with the large army, and they had no other way, and they could not go to the official army.

As a result, Li Zicheng's army had an extremely strange scene.

Hundreds of thousands of troops, undisciplined, formation, incomparably scattered rushed towards the direction of Sichuan, surging like a tide, the scene was very spectacular.

Despite the darkness, there were shouts that echoed through the night.

Lu Xiangsheng stood on the lookout, looking stunned.

The military intelligence officer beside him blinked and said, "My lord, is Li Zicheng uncontrollable?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng still looked stunned, looked at the deputy general, and said, "Order all the armies to pursue." Inform Qin Liangyu again, order him to block it, and Cao Bianjiao's cavalry, all of them will move for me. ”

"Yes!" The adjutant general gave the order and quickly went to give the order.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the dark area in front of him, his expression was a little strange, and said, "You say, how will this paragraph be recorded in the history books in the future?" It's me Lu Xiangsheng who is wise and martial, and he breaks the thief; Or is it that the thief defeated himself, and I, Lu Xiangshengbai, picked up a big credit? ”

A group of people listened, their expressions moved, and they didn't dare to answer.

There's a big difference.

is small, it is a matter of current merit and future prospects; To put it mildly, it was a matter of eternity, will future generations praise him or laugh at him?

Lu Xiangsheng thought back to the last time Zhou Zheng pacified the northwest, and then thought about him this time, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

That's right, in Lu Xiangsheng's opinion, Li Zicheng has been defeated and has no power to return to the sky!

"Kill!" Zhao led his sect to the northernmost part, leading an army of 20,000 to pursue Li Zicheng's defeated army on the dark road.

Man Gui, Yang Guozhu, Cao Wenzhao, Gao Jie and others, like others, led more than 100,000 troops to cover up the past, even though it was in the dark night, they still shouted and killed the sky, and the morale was like a tide.
