Li Guoqi was persuaded like this, in fact, who would like to wipe his neck if he has a little way to live, he felt that the words of his subordinates were too reasonable, and the defeat in this battle could not be completely blamed on him, if you want to blame Lin Yi for not being able to plan, or blame these thieves for suddenly withdrawing their troops, otherwise how could he fail?

Thinking about this, General Li felt better, and with more than 500 remnants of the defeated army, he would rest fifty or sixty miles south of Yichuan, waiting for reinforcements from all walks of life to come and annihilate these thieves in one fell swoop, so as to make him a shame of the defeat of Yichuan.

But he was not stupid here, so he sent three letter soldiers, all the way to Yan'an Mansion to let Huang Ming send troops to Yichuan, all the way back to Xi'an Mansion, and then transferred a thousand soldiers and horses to help, these more than 500 people and horses are too few, and the third way is to go to Suide to inquire about Lin Yi and their news.

General Li gave them a death order, the three messengers must be rushed at a speed of 500 miles, which one of the wrong ways to come to the head, the three messengers after the promise on the fast horse, with the arrow non-stop, day and night running.

Now Yan'an, Xi'an, and Suide are not too far from Li Guoqi, and they are all hundreds of miles away.

A very quick report came, Lin Yi fought another big victory in Suide, this battle was more beautiful than the battle of Longmen Mountain, the 20,000 horses of Guotianxing were annihilated, and Guotianxing was shot in the head by Lin Yi with an arrow.

Mr. Lin has won the battle again! The stars are over!

Li Guoqi's more than 500 soldiers and generals were about to cheer, as if they had won the battle, and then there were many discussions, the name Lin Yi made them fascinated, and became the victorious commander in their minds.

The happiest is, of course, Li Guoqi, he can't wait to make a fool of God, but then he feels ashamed in his heart, he is also the chief military officer, and even in terms of official position, his Shaanxi general soldier is one level higher than Lin Yi, the Miyun general soldier, and there are many soldiers and horses under him, but look at Lin Yi, he wins a battle and wins a battle, and he even loses the battle, which is embarrassing!

But in any case, the official army and the thieves are fighting, each has its own victory and defeat, and now it is obvious that the official army has the upper hand, and most of the fifty or sixty thousand thieves have been exterminated, leaving only more than 10,000 thieves in Yichuan.

Therefore, Li Guoqi and his more than 500 remnants of the defeated generals all cheered up from the decadence of defeat......

From Suide to Yichuan, a distance of four or five hundred miles, Lin Yi's men and horses arrived in less than two days.

At the same time, there were people from Yan'an outside Yichuan City, and Huang Ming, the deputy chief soldier, personally supervised the division, he received Lin Yi's letter, and he also received Li Guoqi's letter, things changed so quickly, he didn't expect it. Originally, the three of them were going to meet in Yan'an Mansion and work together to destroy the thieves, but he also noticed that the thieves suddenly scattered their troops, and he was afraid that it was a conspiracy of the thieves, and there was no news of Lin Yi and Li Guoqi, so he didn't dare to act rashly, so he had to act according to the original plan.

Soon came the news of the great victory in the Battle of Suide and the defeat in the Battle of Yichuan, both of which shocked him.

He also felt that this Lin general soldier from Miyun was too powerful, he came from afar, and there were not many soldiers and horses, but he won the battle, and in just a few days, he successively annihilated the three major bandits who had been a headache for the imperial court, such as the Shooting Sky Collapse, the Sky Sweeping Tiger and the Sky Star, what a great merit!

On the contrary, Li Guoqi, their commander-in-chief, suffered another defeat, and this time the defeat was even worse, and the 8,000 officers and soldiers were almost wiped out. Every battle has a reason, no matter what the reason, it is always us Shaanxi soldiers who lose, it seems that the soldiers are fine but not many, and they will be planning but not brave, this is not false at all!

Huang Ming sighed in his heart, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, after seeing Lin Yi and Li Guoqi's letters, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately ordered 5,000 men and horses, leaving more than 1,000 people to guard Yan'an, and drove outside Yichuan City day and night.

Lin Yi's men and horses camped in the north of the city, and Huang Ming's men and horses camped in the west of the city, and at this time, another thousand cavalry came from Xi'an, and Li Guoqi led 1,500 or 600 people to camp in the south.

To the east of Yichuan is a small river, and the water is strong enough to prevent the thieves from escaping into the Luliang Mountains, so more than 10,000 officers and soldiers are equivalent to surrounding Yichuan City.

Yichuan City. The thieves are not in the mud and the lights are not on, and the others are still immersed in the joy of winning the battle.

For them, this battle was too enjoyable and relieving. Recaptured Yichuan overnight, killed thousands of officers and soldiers, and hundreds of abandoned weapons and surrendered, and ordered them to be executed without mud and lights, specifically, with hooks hooked out of the anus and internal organs, until people were killed alive, so the ghosts in Yichuan City cried wolves, and these thieves danced wildly.

After the surrendered officers and soldiers were executed, they began to sit on the ground and divide the spoils. Li Guoqi's 8,000 men and horses were beaten so that only a few hundred escaped, and the trophies in the city were piled up, not to mention knives and spears, horses, livestock, dead and half-dead, all skinned and cooked for meat, and those that could be used alive were charged to the army, and the officers and soldiers still had things that could be eaten, drunk, and valuable, all of which were taken out and divided, and even those good military uniforms were taken off from the corpses.

Then these thieves began to congratulate Haiti on the victory.

But just halfway through the congratulations, the bad news came, and Suide's star was gone.

The wine in the mouth could not be swallowed without mud and the lamp was not lit, and the meat could not be chewed in the mouth, all of them were stupid, and they were stunned, and then they talked about it with a panicked look on their faces.

Some thieves even doubt the accuracy of the news, thinking that the rumors are not credible, the stars are wise and brave, a pair of gauntlets and double hooks are brave and crowning the three armies, and he is good at planning and being strategic, these thieves, he is a big banner, how can such a person be easily exterminated? He has more than 20,000 horses under his command, all of them are very capable of fighting, Chaoyan sent elite soldiers and strong generals to drive him for a few years, and he has been fine in several provinces, how many times have the big rivers and waves passed, how can the boat capsize in the small river ditch?

But soon their news was confirmed, because the remnants of the Heavenly Star came back one after another and joined them, and these people who were not muddy and the lights were not lit were all silent.

"Lin Yi? It's this surnamed Lin again! "Don't get mud and the lights don't light up, mention this name now I hate and fear, of course they have long remembered this name, their five coalition forces have been beaten out, three of them, fifty or sixty thousand people have less than half a month left, can these thieves not have a long memory?

No matter how good the wine and meat are, the joy of victory is all washed away. A serious question is before them: where to go in the face of the risk of being encircled and suppressed?

The five gangs of thieves are now left with two of them, fifty or sixty thousand people, and there are only more than 10,000 people left, and the officials and soldiers will inevitably send troops to Yichuan to encircle and suppress them. Li Guoqi and that Huang Ming are just tofu generals, there is nothing to fear, the key Miyun general Lin Yi seems to be their nemesis, which makes these thieves panic all day long.

Some people advocate fighting to the death with the official army, some people advocate abandoning Yichuan, fleeing to the mountains, and living a life of retreat in the mountains and forests, and some advocate that there are no thieves here, and there is a place to raise thieves, go to Hubei to join Zhang Xianzhong or go to Henan to seek refuge with Li Zicheng, can the living still be called urine suffocation? If we can't afford to provoke us, we can afford to hide, and then kill back when we have the strength, and it is not too late for the gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and he will not be afraid of no firewood to burn, Yunyun.

For a while, there were different opinions, and there was no consensus, that is, there was no consensus on whether it was not muddy and the lights were not on. In the end, there were two major factions, one that did not stick to the mud, and the other did not turn on the lights, of course, the two thieves had the final say.

In the end, the discussion turned into a quarrel, and in the end, the wine bowl also fell, and the table was overturned, and the two families had a tendency to go their separate ways.

At this moment, someone came to report that three armies of officers and soldiers had surrounded them from outside the city.

"Damn, fight with them, brothers, copy guys!" The two factions did not quarrel without mud and lights, and more than 10,000 thieves all held knives, guns, bows and arrows, and opened all the city gates, some to the east, some to the west, some to the south, and some to the north.

More than 10,000 thieves ran out of the four gates like cattle, shouting loudly and rushing towards the officers and soldiers. A life-and-death battle has begun.

In terms of numbers, the strength of the two sides is roughly the same, but in terms of combat effectiveness, the more than 10,000 officers and soldiers are uneven, Lin Yi's Miyun soldiers can almost be ten Shaanxi soldiers, but these more than 10,000 thieves are also a rabble, and they can only fight two or three thousand people, and the rest are indiscriminate.

In a scuffle, Lin Yibing defended the place, none of them rushed out, and all of them were annihilated outside the city not far from the moat.

Then Lin Yi's soldiers launched a charge, attacked the city with an unstoppable force, and then killed them from the city, and finally the more than 10,000 thieves were compressed outside the south gate by the three-way official army, leaving only two or three thousand people trapped in it, and the rest were all killed.

"You can't run anymore, and those who know each other quickly abandon their weapons and surrender in order to survive, Lin solemnly promised that as long as you surrender sincerely, you will never surrender. Otherwise, it's a dead end! Lin Yi shouted to the thief, and his words were amplified by his generals.

The thieves in the encirclement are holding knives and guns, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at the officers and soldiers of the three layers outside the three layers outside, none of them spoke.

"Brothers, fight with these bright dogs!" The non-sticky mud covered in blood waved his knife and shouted, his partner had died in the chaos with the lights not on, and now there was only one left that did not touch the mud.

But as soon as the words that were not sticky to the mud fell, his body suddenly shook, and a steel knife stabbed him in the back of the heart, and a bloody tip of the knife emerged from his chest, and the blood rushed wildly.

The knife that didn't stick to the mud couldn't move, his body twitched and turned around slowly, trying to see whose hand it was, but his body only turned half a circle, and before he could see clearly, he couldn't support it and fell in a pool of blood, the steel knife in his hand fell to the ground, his eyes were unwilling, and he died.

"I'm willing to surrender!" The thief shouted, threw the bloodied knife, and fell to his knees. He took the lead and asked for the surrender of the weapons in his hands.

According to Li Guoqi and Huang Ming, they all killed these people, but Lin Yi had something to say first, and it was inconvenient for them to say more at this time, and as a result, the more than 2,000 thieves all became prisoners of the official army.

Tens of thousands of thieves in this area have all been exterminated so far, and Li Guoqi, Huang Ming, and Lin Yi celebrated each other. The two commanders praised Lin Yi for his great achievements, and complimented Lin Yi to the sky.

When cleaning up the spoils of war and sharing the exploits, Lin Yi is a guest from afar after all, and he can't be anti-guest-oriented, nor can he take the lead, in other people's acres and three-points of land, the strong dragon still doesn't suppress the head snake, and Li Guoqi and Huang Ming have no merit and hard work.

Therefore, Lin Yi said very generously: In the battle of Yichuan, as long as he is captured, the rest can be sacrificed. Li Guoqi and Huang Ming were happy in their hearts.
