Chapter 625: Confusion
Gao Yigong, Li Guo and others rushed towards Sichuan with Li Zicheng, all with solemn expressions, as if facing a great enemy.
They didn't expect the news to leak out so quickly, and the armies everywhere would scatter and flee together.
However, the officials and soldiers did not miss the opportunity to cover up and kill as they expected, and they couldn't care so much, so they could only rush towards Sichuan.
Qin Liangyu, who was in the Sword Pavilion, was also preparing to cut Li Zicheng's army as planned, who knew that they would rush to Sichuan in a swarm.
Ma Xianglin, Cao Bianjiao and others stood behind Qin Liangyu, looking at the mountains and forests in the distance, the sparks were lit, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the shouts were faintly heard, as if there were people everywhere.
Ma Xianglin said in a deep voice: "Is Li Zicheng crazy?" Break out late at night!"
Cao Bianjiao didn't think so much, and said: "General Qin, we must block them, if we let them into Sichuan, we will lose all our efforts." ”
Not only will Sichuan, which has just been pacified, be in chaos again, but also that Li Zicheng's entry into Sichuan is equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain!
Qin Liangyu's expression was calm, and he said with a clear smile: "I'm afraid they don't know how difficult the road in Sichuan is, I only need to send three thousand people to block them outside." ”
Cao Bianjiao entered Sichuan for a short time, and he also knew that Sichuan was difficult to travel, mountainous and dangerous, and his cavalry did not use much.
Ma Xianglin immediately continued: "General, then I will lead people to block them, and as soon as the morning dawns, I will encircle and suppress them!" ”
They all guessed that Lu Xiangsheng's side must have chased after him, as long as it was dawn, it would definitely be surrounded and suppressed by the army!
Qin Liangyu nodded and said, "Bring all 20,000 people over." General Cao, your cavalry moves, responds, and when necessary, pursues. ”
"Yes!"
Ma Xianglin, Cao Bianjiao and others raised their hands in unison, and then quickly arranged.
Ma Xianglin and others guarded the pass, facing Li Zicheng's army who was about to rush over.
Li Zicheng's 300,000-strong army can now be said to be scattered, as if it was not marching, but fleeing in a hurry.
In addition to the army led by Gao Yigong and others.
Their protector, Li Zicheng, held high the 'imperial flag' and rushed forward.
Qin Liangyu did not stick to it from the beginning, but crossed several levels by Gao Yigong and others until Wushan!
More than 20,000 Sichuan troops including Ma Xianglin were stationed here. This is a dangerous pass, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The sky was still dark, and Ma Xianglin stood at the head of the city, looking indifferent.
Gao Yigong, Li Guo and others knew that there were officers and troops led by Qin Liangyu in Sichuan, but the number was not large, their 50,000 army, no matter how big the sacrifice, as long as Qin Liangyu was defeated, then the whole of Sichuan would be theirs!
Therefore, Gao Yigong and others under the banner of Li Zicheng did not have any tactics, and they attacked Wushan fiercely.
Ma Xianglin personally guarded the city, he was not afraid, but his expression was very strange, and he said to himself: "Li Zicheng, what's wrong?" The army of more than 300,000 collapsed without a fight, and now the attack at night is dangerous, don't die, are you crazy? ”
The lieutenant general beside him was also puzzled, and said, "My lord, did you say that the thieves were frightened by our momentum, so they panicked?" ”
Ma Xianglin shook his head and said: "No matter how panicked you are, you won't have any rules and regulations, continue to guard, Premier Lu's army should be able to rush over before dawn, and as soon as dawn, the thieves will be encircled and suppressed!" ”
"Yes!" A group of lieutenants responded in unison.
On Wushan, Qin Liangyu was very well prepared, not only the number of soldiers, weapons, but even cannons, which were brought by Cao Bianjiao.
Therefore, even if it was an attack by an army of 50,000, Ma Xianglin was still calm and calm, which was nothing more than delaying time.
Gao Yigong is here to attack purposefully, and the others are either waiting behind or Sichuan is messing around.
Zuo Liangyu and Liu Liangzuo, who came from Huguang, were not idle, and they were also attacked, and they led troops to resist.
At the junction of the huge Shaanxi and Sichuan rivers, in the middle of the night, there was an incredible big scuffle.
Li Zicheng is still unconscious, no one is in charge, and the chaos of the army of more than 300,000 is unimaginable, it is simply a group of bandits rushing around, shouting and shaking the sky.
Under Wushan Mountain.
Gao Yigong, Li Guo, Tian Jianxiu and others personally went into battle and attacked Wushan at any cost.
But Wushan is as if it cannot be climbed, not moving, the cannon is rumbling, the bow and arrow are raining, and there is no sign of wavering.
There was a glimmer of light in the sky, and Gao Yigong and the others suddenly became more urgent, attacking and anxiously thinking of countermeasures on the other.
Gao Yigong stared at Wushan, his face was solemn, and said: "If it can't be attacked at dawn, Lu Xiangsheng's army of more than 100,000 people will definitely rush over." ”
Li Guo also had a calm face and said: "Without the cover of the night, we have nothing to hide, plus the army's heart is scattered, the dragons are leaderless, there is no other possibility except defeat!" ”
Tian Jianxiu is leading people to attack, and there are only the two of them.
The two spoke, turning their heads back.
Li Zicheng's 'imperial car' was surrounded by water, and there was no movement at all. Queen Gao was in a hurry inside, but Li Zicheng still didn't wake up.
Gao Yigong and Li Guo were suddenly, and their eyes were full of gloom, thinking hard.
Shaanxi definitely can't go, Lu Xiangsheng's nearly 200,000 army has a big net, so he can only enter Sichuan!
Sichuan is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Qin Liangyu is obviously well prepared, they came in a hurry, attacked the city overnight, and couldn't last, what should I do?
Li Guo took a deep breath and said, "There is no other way but to storm Wushan, if you can't attack it, the jade will be burned!" ”
The corners of Gao Yigong's face twitched, and he nodded darkly. At this juncture, they have no other way to think than to fight hard.
As a result, their army of 50,000 attacked desperately at any cost, without stopping for a moment.
While the others were scattered everywhere, Wu Sangui and Tang Tong and others were not with Gao Yigong and others, they already knew that they were abandoned and would not follow again, and they were trying to find a way to bypass Wushan and enter Sichuan.
They are all urgent, the sky is getting brighter, and Lu Xiangsheng's army will chase after them faster.
At the head of Wushan City, the fighting was a bit fierce, which actually made Ma Xianglin feel a trace of crisis.
It was a matter of suppressing bandits, he didn't dare to be careless, and immediately asked Qin Liangyu to transfer troops, and he must guard Wushan steadily.
Qin Liangyu had no other soldiers, so he could only ask Cao Bianjiao's cavalry to dismount and come to guard the pass.
With Cao Bianjiao's 10,000 people joining, there are nearly 40,000 people on Wushan, 40,000 guarding 50,000, plus the danger, how can there be any reason to lose.
Wushan is as stable as Mount Tai, which makes Gao Yigong and others anxious.
On the other side, Lu Xiangsheng led a large army to vigorously pursue and kill Li Zicheng's fleeing rebels, and rushed and killed in a stretch of land for dozens of miles.
Zhao Shujiao, Man Gui, Cao Wenzhao, Gao Jie and others continued to rampage, and Li Zicheng's army, which was already scattered, was scattered, and completely lost the power to resist.
Lu Xiangsheng stood on the top of a hill, holding a telescope, observing the battlefield in a little light.
The military intelligence officer beside him said in a low voice: "My lord, there should be no problem with the others. Li Zicheng should be at the foot of Wushan now, and there is no way out. It's Wu Sangui, Tang Tong's rebels are nowhere to be found, and the Military Intelligence Department is still trying to find a way. ”
Lu Xiangsheng frowned and said, "Find out!" ”
Li Zicheng broke through the background, I don't know how many generals were surrendered along the way, these are the shame of the Ming Dynasty, and they must be uprooted no matter what!
