After completely defeating the five thousand thieves, Ai Wannian found that there were only a few thousand thieves left in Luo Rucai's base camp, and Ai Wannian did not choose to return to the defensive position, but together with the fierce tiger, he directly attacked Luo Rucai's base camp.

At first, Luo Rucai did not put the more than 1,000 cavalry of Ai Ming's army in his eyes, but he never expected that Ai Wannian's cavalry combat effectiveness was so strong, they saw where they were weak and rushed there to kill, after rushing for a few rounds, Luo Rucai's morale collapsed, Luo Rucai saw that the situation was not right, and there were no other troops around him, so he took more than 100 personal soldiers, rode on war horses and began to run away.

Luo Rucai fled, and Ai Wannian's more than 1,000 people began to shout behind the thieves in the middle lane, "Cao Cao has escaped!" The thieves in the middle saw that their general really fled, and there were cavalry of the Ming army behind them, and the entire middle road collapsed in an instant, everyone rushed to escape, and they didn't know where to flee, running around, and the saddest thing was the old battalion on the right wing, they couldn't escape, they couldn't win, and finally chose to surrender.

Seemingly powerful enemies, as long as the morale collapses, the lion becomes a sheep in an instant, and the battlefield changes rapidly, which is why.

There were still more than 10,000 people on the periphery of Ruyang at this time, but all of a sudden the dragons were leaderless, and when they knew that Luo Rucai had fled to Tang County, they also withdrew the siege and fled to Tang County.

In the past few days, Chen Hongfan has been blaming General Liu for underestimating the enemy's rash advance, causing the defeat of the imperial army and putting himself in a place of death.

At the head of the city, General Liu was also worried, this battle was already like this, and he didn't know how Chongzhen would punish him, thinking of the money-hungry Prime Minister Xiong Wencan, his mind began to liven.

"What's going on? Why did all the thieves withdraw? On the castle tower, a soldier shouted suspiciously.

"Withdraw, withdraw, the thief took the initiative to retreat!" When the tens of thousands of thieves faded like a flood, they finally affirmed that these thieves had really retreated, and they shouted with joy, and everyone was happy for the rest of their lives.

"Compared with the art of war, the difference between swordsmanship and the art of war is really too big, I listened to Mr. Song's words, it didn't take a single soldier, tens of thousands of thieves were washed away, and I spent so much effort to kill more than 20 people!" Qin Yiming couldn't help but praise Song Xiance, who was on horseback, thinking about the glory of this battle.

Song Xiance didn't seem to be very useful, but just lamented: "Hey, create evil, I don't know how many years of yang life will be reduced!" Song Xiance, who was on the donkey's back, began to pinch his fingers again.

"Lord Commander, the thieves in Ruyang have retreated!" A sentry came to report.

"What? Ran away? Which direction did you flee from? Qin Yiming asked.

"Most of them fled in the direction of Nanyang!"

"Again, let's continue to march in the direction of Ruyang!"

Cao Cao took more than 100 people and fled to Zhang Xianzhong's camp.

"What? The army is wiped out? How so? Zhang Xianzhong and the other bull's eyes were about to fall off.

"Yes, the Eight Kings, our army was defeated, the officers and soldiers were too cunning, they blocked the water of the Huai River, took us down the river, and put down the blocked water, and tens of thousands of us were washed away like this! I wanted to take revenge, but this Ming army's firearms are really powerful, hey, I can't beat it! Luo Rucai looked angry and scolded this officer and soldier for being shameless.

Zhang Xianzhong gasped, this strategy is too vicious, too powerful, it doesn't cost a single soldier or a foot to wipe out tens of thousands of people, and these people are landlubbers from the north, it is estimated that less than one percent can survive, as for Qin Yiming's firearms, he knows that he still has the scars left by Qin Yiming's firearms on his body.

"Grandma's, they all say that I, Zhang Xianzhong, am a bad star, and Lao Tzu looks at Qin Yiming as the real evil star, that's tens of thousands of people, and it's gone in an instant!" Zhang Xianzhong's back was cold, and the others were silent.

Li Ding's heart was churning, this Qin Yiming was kind to him, and he was very entangled in his heart at the moment.

"Where do we go from here, my lord?"

"Report!" A herald led this small flag and ran all the way, and when he reached the middle of the team, Qin Yiming knelt down in front of his horse and said, "My lord, the thief army outside Ruyang City has retreated, and not a single figure has been seen. ”

Qin Yiming is a little incredible, how can he say that he just runs?

The sentry replied, "Look at the traces on the ground, and be sure that it is in the direction of Nanyang!" ”

Chen Daquan was very uncomfortable sitting on horseback, but he was embarrassed to make a carriage, he had been with Qin Yiming for a long time, and he had also learned to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, at this time, when he heard that the thieves had escaped, he was also happy, and said with a smile: "Haha, the thieves are really a group of rabble, and when they heard the prestige of Lord Qin, they ran away directly, haha." ”

As soon as Ai Wannian and Meng Ruhu heard that the enemy had run away, they immediately wanted to chase after them, so they said: "Lord Commander, General Meng and I led the cavalry to chase, but it has only been half a day, and those thieves can't run far." ”

"No, although Luo Rucai's subordinates have collapsed in morale, there is still Zhang Xianzhong, don't take the enemy lightly! Little monkey, bring me the map! ”

The little monkey took out the march map, which was not very easy to use, so inaccurate that ordinary people really couldn't understand it.

"Is it Queshan County ahead?" Qin Yiming was not sure, pointed to a black dot on the west side of Runing Mansion on the map, and asked.

The little monkey looked at it and said, "Yes, you will arrive at the mountain after walking for an hour." ”

Qin Yiming nodded, and said to everyone: "Listen, everyone, now that the siege of Ruyang has been lifted, we will wait for General Chen and them in Queshan, everyone have a good rest, and when the army arrives, we will march west together." ”

Chen Daquan and Song Xiance were slower, but Song Xiance was still in front of Chen Daquan, and both of them were in the second half of the army.

Chen Daquan followed behind Song Xiance, inhaling Song Xiance's second-hand dry smoke, choking uncomfortably, and said: "I said Mr. Song, why is your donkey faster than our horse!" ”

"Father-in-law, you're a mare, I'm a donkey!" Song Xiance leisurely spit out smoke rings on the back of the donkey.

"Mr. Song, are you comfortable riding on a donkey?"

"It's comfortable, the donkey's legs are short, and the walking is not so bumpy, plus this mat made for me by Mrs. Qin, it's very comfortable!"

"Oh? What did Mrs. Qin do for you? What mats? ”

"No, there's a lot of cotton stuffed under my butt, and it doesn't matter how many hours I ride."

"Oh, good thing, Mrs. Qin is really virtuous!"

"Then it doesn't need to be said, if you don't say that Qin Mangfu is blessed, the two wives are all good, especially the eldest lady, who cares for us people and takes good care of them, I like to eat bitter hemp cabbage, and my wife orders people to dig bitter hemp vegetables for me everywhere every day, hey, it's just a pity that the season is not right now, and I don't have to eat it." Song Xiance thought of bitter hemp vegetables, and his mouth was sour.

On the second day, Lu Jiude, Chen Hongfan, Liu Liangzuo and others led a total of about 40,000 allied troops to Queshan County.

Lu Jiude is the supervisor of the Qin order, Chen Hongfan, Qin Yiming, Liu Liangzuo, etc. are all the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, so many generals are gathered together, who will command the unified command is a problem, and now it is irrational to separate the troops, only by concentrating, they can have the courage to continue to march west and rescue Zuo Liangyu.

Qin Yiming proposed that everyone have a military meeting, and everyone was present.

Chen Hongfan is the oldest, and he is afraid that Qin Yiming, Lu Jiude and others like Liu Liangzuo like to rush forward, so he wants him to lead the entire army.

"Previously, I joined forces with General Liu to march west, if General Liu didn't listen to my dissuasion, Zhang Xianzhong would have been defeated by me at this time, and Tang County would have been relieved of the siege." Chen Hongfan first accused Liu Liangzuo.

"Hmph, if it weren't for the Mourning family running thousands of miles with an army, how could the thieves outside Ruyang City flee from the wind?!" Lu Jiude was not ashamed, he knew that Qin Yiming had defeated Luo Rucai in the Huai River, but he insisted that the siege of Ruyang City was lifted because of the reason why his army went south.

Phew, shameless! Song Xiance scolded in his heart.

"Phew, shameless!" A voice scolded loudly!

Who is it? Even Lu Jianjun dared to scold? Don't you know? Lu Jiude is a henchman who is high and subliminate!

Everyone found out, and it was none other than Chen Daquan who scolded Lu Jiude.

"Hmph, who's so bold?" Lu Jiude was angry, his yin and yang tone was weird, and his dry face was extremely ugly.

"Who do we think it is? It turned out to be Gonggong Chen, no wonder he was so tough, hey, who called Gonggong Chen a celebrity of Gonggong Gao! Lu Jiude sissy talked endlessly, and secretly sarcastic.

"This has nothing to do with our father-in-law, we can't see your face, servile and arrogant, a few people here are the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, all of them are experienced generals, and the father-in-law doesn't dare to call him a soldier, do you understand? Do you still want to lead an army? You're thick-skinned enough! Chen Daquan's words are very appetizing to these general soldiers, which makes Chen Daquan win a lot of favor, that is, Qin Yiming, and now he is also impressed by Chen Daquan.

Lu Jiude gritted his teeth angrily, and his originally hard-working face was even more bloodless at this time, "You! You ......"

"Besides, Ruyang is the siege you solve? If it weren't for the fact that General Qin defeated Cao Cao's 60,000 army with 10,000 elite soldiers, and General Chen and they were still waiting for people to rescue in Ruyang, Lu Jianjun, I'm afraid you would still be hiding somewhere and watching, and you wouldn't dare to go south an inch! ”

Chen Daquan said that Chen Hongfan and the others blushed, and Lu Jiude was already so angry that he couldn't speak, and his dead fish-like eyes stared at Chen Daquan motionlessly.

"Mr. Song, Gonggong Chen is so bloody today! You have been muttering a lot together lately, did you say something" The little monkey listened to it and whispered to Song Xiance.

"How do I know!" Song Xiance replied in a low voice.

"Hmph, forget it, the miscellaneous family doesn't care, you can watch it!" Lu Jiude lost his aura and walked out angrily.

There is no one to keep them, who wants a eunuch to come out and lead them, Chen Hongfan originally had the heart to fight, but when Chen Daquan said that just now, it was not easy to speak.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Chen Daquan said, "Let's propose that General Qin temporarily control the whole army and coordinate the deployment, how about it?" ”
