Li Dingguo's power was far beyond Mao Wenlong's imagination, and in desperation, he had to use the Chengzuo army to defend the coastline of Nanjing. He was ordered to lead the most elite firearms of the Dongjiang Army to support Chen Qiyu, so as to quickly quell the chaos in Nanjing, after all, the day of the founding ceremony was getting closer and closer, and there was no room for anything inappropriate.

After Cheng Zuo received Mao Wenlong's order, he set off on the same day, and Chen Qiyu was also ready for the reception early. After the two met, they began to discuss the method of battle, and the army was ready to launch a rapid attack on Li Dingguo at any time.

The movements of the Dongjiang Army are not small, so Li Dingguo still knows very well about the frequent troop movements of the Dongjiang Army. When he learned that the Dongjiang Army was preparing to send a firearms army to attack, Li Dingguo not only did not panic, but his face was full of determination, as if he already had the invincible Dongjiang Army Firearms Army in his heart.

In Nanjing, Li Dingguo's victory in the first battle not only boosted morale to a great extent. After he sent the news to Chongzhen, who was in seclusion, Chongzhen immediately sent Wu Chengen to join the princess who was ready to marry, and three thousand soldiers and horses to quietly come to Ningguofu City to join Li Dingguo.

Princess Changping's beauty was indeed beyond Li Dingguo's expectations, originally he just wanted to borrow the identity of the princess to ride in the same boat with Chongzhen. But after seeing the princess's beauty, he suddenly had a little more affection for the princess.

As a princess of Daming, Zhu Yujiao's vision is naturally superior, and she is not interested in a relatively weak man like Mao Wenlong. But when he saw a mighty and handsome man like Li Dingguo, his heart beat unconsciously.

Zhu Yujiao practices martial arts freely, her personality is different from those of the ladies, and her own skills are also good. The vision of this husband is naturally offset, like Mao Wenlong, he has no force, more like a scholar, not the princess's ideal prince charming.

And a mighty man like Li Dingguo is more in line with the princess's aesthetic views, and the two sides have met for the first time, although there is no more intersection. But Li Dingguo's appearance and image have already left a good impression on the princess.

"The last general, Li Dingguo sees the princess." After Li Dingguo received Wu Chengen, he took the lead in saluting the princess.

The princess's first impression of Li Dingguo was good, and the previous worries in her heart had disappeared, so she responded politely: "General Li doesn't have to be polite. ”

Before coming, Zhu Yujiao was still a little reluctant to make this trip, but because she had already agreed to Chongzhen, she couldn't regret it. And at this moment, the more I look at Li Dingguo, the more I feel that my eyes are closed, but I begin to feel that this trip is worthwhile, and I am looking forward to Li Dingguo's performance in the future.

Seeing that the princess and Li Dingguo seemed to have met their eyes, Wu Chengen's heart blossomed. is not only happy for the princess, but also finally has an explanation for Chongzhen. Li Dingguo is indeed a talent, and the only hope is that he can successfully obstruct Mao Wenlong's founding ceremony this time. In the future, he will marry the princess and complete a marriage, and Chongzhen has a fierce general like Li Dingguo to help, maybe it is really possible to revive the Ming Dynasty.

Li Dingguo was very satisfied with the princess, so he naturally would not neglect her, and immediately ordered someone to arrange the princess's accommodation. After the princess left, Li Dingguo thanked Wu Chengen and said, "Father-in-law Wu, Li would like to thank you in advance!" ”

Wu Chengen sneered: "General Li, don't be busy thanking our family first, whether you can achieve this marriage with the princess depends on your next performance." Our family has heard that Mao Wenlong has sent the firearms battalion of the Dongjiang Army to come, and this firearms battalion believes that General Li should also know something, right? ”

Speaking of business, Li Dingguo's face became solemn: "The firearms battalion of the Dongjiang Army is famous all over the world, and Li Mou also observed it early in the morning, so he took precautions early in the morning. It's just that he has not been able to practice the things created by those craftsmen all along, and it is not good to make any guarantees to Gonggong Wu at this time. ”

Although Li Dingguo is a fierce general, he is not reckless, and he has been involved in Wen Taowu and Wu Strategy. After learning about the strength of the Dongjiang Arms Battalion, he has been secretly observing, and he has also secretly worked with some craftsmen to concoct some weapons to defeat the enemy.

However, it has never had the opportunity to fight with the firearms battalion of the Dongjiang Army, so the weapons created have not been actually tested. Li Dingguo has always been cautious, and he will never easily boast about Haikou in front of others until he is absolutely sure.

Wu Chengen obviously knows Li Dingguo quite well, and listening to his words, he knows that Li Dingguo is actually quite confident in his heart. He sneered again: "General Li's ability can be trusted by our family, as long as you are prepared in advance." Now that the emperor has learned that General Li is in difficulty, he specially ordered our family to bring 3,000 dead soldiers to help General Li, hoping that General Li can win this battle and marry the princess! ”

Li Dingguo laughed when he heard this, chatted with Wu Chengen for a few more words, and personally sent Wu Chengen to the residence prepared for him to settle down.

This time, Chongzhen sent the princess over, obviously to express his determination, and Li Dingguo naturally couldn't miss such an opportunity. Therefore, this time no matter what, you can't fail, only by defeating the Dongjiang Army to prove your ability to Chongzhen, will you have a good road in the future.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and Cheng Zuo and Chen Qiyu also led the army to the city again on time, and the dense outside the city of Ningguo Mansion was full of the figures of the Dongjiang Army. And Li Dingguo, who was in the city of Ningguo Mansion, was also fully prepared early in the morning and was ready for battle.

The confrontation between the two armies did not show weakness, Chen Qiyu had the help of the firearms battalion this time, and he was confident that he could easily solve the hot potato of Li Dingguo. In the face of the resurgent Dongjiang Army, Li Dingguo naturally dealt with it, although he still had some concerns about the firearms battalion of the Dongjiang Army, but he did not shake his determination to persevere.

This time the two armies clashed no better than the previous one, and no one rushed to send troops first, but quieted down and waited for a day. It was not until the early morning of the next day that two hot air balloons suddenly appeared in the position of the Dongjiang Army and slowly rose into the air.

Li Dingguo was notified as soon as possible, and immediately went to the city wall to supervise the battle, and when he saw two huge hot air balloons slowly floating towards the sky above the city of Ningguofu, Li Dingguo immediately showed two huge crossbow arrows on the city wall.

These two crossbow arrows are much better than the crossbow arrows that Huang Taiji used to deal with hot air balloons before, both in terms of manufacturing technology and power. The craftsman who built this crossbow arrow was the craftsman of the previous imperial court Shenji Battalion, and it was also a great gift from Chongzhen to Li Dingguo.

Li Dingguo gave an order, and the giant crossbow began to pull the strings, and the bowstring sound of 'rattling rattle' sounded, and just opening the bowstring had to be completed by eight stout men at the same time. When the thick cow tendon bowstring was tightened, the crossbow bolts were finally wound, and after the crossbow arrows were placed, they began to aim at the hot air balloon that was slowly flying in the air.
