The siege battle in Shanxi has begun, and Liu Zongmin, who vowed to take Zhangde Mansion before noon, is anxious at the moment. Fastest updates

The resistance of the imperial army was so stubborn that he felt a deep despair, and he saw that there was another hour, and noon would come. But the chance of breaking the city is still slim, and there is no hope at all.

His 30,000 subordinates have suffered more than half of the casualties by now, and without backup, don't think that there is a chance to break the city.

"Kill, don't break the city, swear not to give up." Liu Zongmin couldn't hold it anymore, he waved his hand and pressed the whole army up, preparing for the final sprint.

Wolf smoke and blood were boiling, and corpses were everywhere in and below the city.

At this point, all the defenders in the city were almost exhausted, but the prefect still did not give up resistance. He personally led the people of the city to defend the city, and he himself commanded on the battlefield.

All of us are united in our efforts to the end.

"My lord, the enemy's attack is too fierce, and we are about to be unable to withstand it." A one-armed catcher, covered in blood, ran to the prefect to report it.

"Immediately go to the city to drive the people up to the city to assist in the defense, and you must defend me no matter what." The prefect has lost his former glory at the moment.

He was covered in dust at the moment, and although he was not injured, he was as embarrassed as a beggar. If it weren't for the official uniform on his body, standing in the crowd at this moment, absolutely no one would be able to recognize him as the prefect of a city.

The muscles on the face of the head catcher were beating again and again, and the young and middle-aged people in the city had already come up to defend the city first. At this moment, there are only some old and weak, women and children left in the city, and if even these people have to be driven up to defend the city, it will inevitably cause greater dissatisfaction.

"My lord, by all means! There are only women, children, old and children left in the city, and if we drive them all up, we will all be dead in Zhangde City. "His son was killed yesterday, and he himself lost an arm.

"Smack!"

A loud slap was thrown directly on his face, directly hitting the head catcher so that the corners of his mouth bled out.

"The enemy army is so fierce, once the city is broken, you think the people in the city are still alive. Go and do it immediately, and if you dare to ink, the government will take you first. The hideous prefect roared viciously at the headhunter.

Seeing this, the head catcher didn't dare to say more, covered half of his already swollen face, and hurriedly went down to the city to lead the people to do something.

In the Huaiqing Mansion, Li Zicheng looked up at the sky, and it was less than half an hour before noon.

And Liu Zongmin still has no hope of breaking the city, and the stubborn resistance of the imperial army is indeed unexpected.

"Alas!" Li Zicheng suddenly let out a soft sigh.

"Breaking the King......

As soon as Yingshanjian opened his mouth, he was stopped by Li Zicheng waving his hand, and he said lonely: "Immediately order the whole army to retreat back to Shaanxi, without the slightest delay." ”

"Your subordinates can do it!" Ying Shanjian didn't dare to talk nonsense, and immediately turned around and left.

Li Zicheng also got up at the same time and slowly walked towards the outside of the mansion.

At this moment, the entire Huaiqing Mansion has been cleaned up, and all the rebel troops are already ready to go.

After Li Zicheng got into the carriage, he immediately ordered the withdrawal of the troops.

Tens of thousands of troops slowly left Huaiqing Mansion and abandoned the city, even Liu Zongmin, who was desperately attacking the city, and Li Zicheng did not think about it.

Mao Wenlong took a boat from Kaifeng again, heading towards Zhengzhou, and as soon as he arrived in Zhengzhou, he learned that Li Zicheng had withdrawn his troops, leaving only one of his henchmen who was still frantically attacking Zhangde Mansion.

"Is Li Zicheng ready to give up Shanxi?" Mao Wenlong was a little puzzled for a while, this doesn't seem to be Li Zicheng's style!

"This is a wise move by him, the reinforcements of the imperial army are almost in Shanxi, if he doesn't leave, he will definitely die." Hong Chengchou responded indifferently to Mao Wenlong's doubts.

Mao Wenlong smiled and didn't refute Hong Chengchou's remarks, he turned to face the direction of Huaiqing Mansion, and said faintly: "Do you think I should take the opportunity to send troops to besiege Li Zicheng?" ”

Hong Chengchou looked at Mao Wenlong's back suspiciously, and hesitated: "Why do you suddenly have this idea?" ”

Mao Wenlong turned around, glanced at Cheng Zuo, who was standing guard in the distance, and smiled: "Because the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass." ”

Hong Chengchou's puzzled expression jumped on his face, he followed Mao Wenlong's gaze, and soon saw Chengzuo and Zhuang Yexiang in the distance. The two were whispering and talking happily.

Cheng Zuo wanted to marry Zhuang Yexiang, Hong Chengchou had learned about it two days ago, and at this moment he suddenly said: "This is what Zhuang Yexiang asked Cheng Zuo to do?" ”

Mao Wenlong nodded and said, "You don't need to doubt it, after I learned about it, I have already asked Zhuang Yexiang, and it can be seen that there is indeed no problem between the two." ”

Hong Chengchou hesitated for a moment and said, "So you want to disrupt your plan all along for them?" ”

Mao Wenlong shrugged his shoulders and said: "A plan is a plan, and it can be changed at any time." It's rare for them to be a loving couple, and the beauty of adults is also a beautiful conversation, isn't it? ”

Hong Chengchou nodded and said no more, from Mao Wenlong's tone, it was already clear that Mao Wenlong had actually decided what to do early on.

Speaking and talking to yourself at this moment is just trying to find an excuse to convince him, and then firmly implement it.

"Chengzuo, Zhuang Yexiang, you all come here." Mao Wenlong suddenly shouted to the two people in the distance.

After Cheng Zuo and Zhuang Yexiang heard this, they immediately hurried over: "Chief soldier." ”

Mao Wenlong waved his hand and said: "Li Zicheng has begun to withdraw his troops at this moment, and judging from the route they are advancing, it is obvious that they will not return by the original route of the Yellow River. And the imperial army may rush to Shanxi at any time to besiege and kill Li Zicheng's rebellious army. ”

After a pause, Mao Wenlong said lightly: "Now give you a chance to ambush Li Zicheng, as for whether it succeeds or not, it depends on your creation." ”

Cheng Zuo suddenly became excited, he pulled Zhuang Yexiang and knelt down directly, and shouted: "General Xie is complete." ”

Mao Wenlong stepped forward to help the two of them up, and said with a smile: "Don't be busy thanking me first, the opportunity is given to you, and success or failure depends on your creation." Now go back to the barracks and pick up the men, a thousand elite soldiers and Adou have arrived, and he will assist you. ”

Cheng Zuo and Zhuang Yexiang happily thanked Mao Wenlong, and then hurriedly took a boat back to Kaifeng.

Sending a large army to intercept and kill Li Zicheng was obviously not in line with Mao Wenlong's plan. But giving Chengzuo a chance to assassinate Li Zicheng was within Mao Wenlong's acceptability. Moreover, in order to increase the bargaining chips for success, Mao Wenlong did not hesitate to transfer Adou to help.

It also shows that Mao Wenlong attaches great importance to Cheng Zuo, of course, Cheng Zuo also understands in his heart that Mao Wenlong has made great concessions for him, which makes him very grateful.
