Chapter 819: Zuo Liangyu
Zuo Liangyu rode behind his wife, son, and daughter, very worried. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
His party dragged at the back of the fleeing army.
Zuo Liangyu is unruly, known as a Ming general, but he is actually a warlord, and he has always supported his own troops. Because he often disobeyed the orders of his superiors, he generally took his family members with him in the army to prevent his family members from being taken hostage by his superiors.
However, it is not absolutely safe in the military. He originally had a wife, five concubines, and more than ten children, but he was killed by the rebels in the Xuzhou Mutiny in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, and only his son Zuo Mengeng was not killed.
In the past ten years, he has married four concubines and given birth to four sons and three daughters.
In order to take care of these families, Zuo Liangyu took a large number of maids in the army. These maids dragged for a long time to prepare to escape, plus a large number of daily furniture items and gold and silver treasures to be loaded, so Zuo Liangyu finally packed up and embarked on the road of retreat.
However, once he walked, Zuo Liangyu's family team was not slow.
Zuo Liangyu looked at the battlefield behind him with the rumbling of cannons, and secretly said that Wu Sangui should be able to hold it for another hour, and by then he would have walked thirty miles away, and when the time came, he would destroy the bridge or something, and the Tiger Ben Army would not be able to catch up even if he chased it.
Glancing at the battlefield, Zuo Liangyu's body shook violently again.
The impact of this battle on Zuo Liangyu was too great. Li Zhi's methods are so amazing, like a trick, he keeps conjuring up new weapons, and all of them are very practical. Zuo Liangyu is now beginning to worry about whether Shi Kefa said that according to Jiang Lishou, God knows if Li Zhi will conjure up a new weapon again.
But no matter what, all of his more than 70,000 soldiers and horses have been withdrawn, as long as the army is in hand, Zuo Liangyu can still be a man of honor and enjoy fame and fortune.
Zuo Liangyu walked and walked, and his son Zuo Mengeng rode over and asked, "Father." Now our army is no match for the Tiger Army, if the Tiger Army chases all the way to Nanjing, what will happen? ”
Zuo Liangyu looked at his son, and replied for a long time: "Let's watch in Nanjing first..."
However, Zuo Liangyu was thinking about the future, when he suddenly saw a guard next to him with wide eyes.
"Dashuai, look over there..."
Zuo Liangyu sighed in his heart, and looked to the right along the fingers of the guard. Sure enough, on the right, he saw a group of Tiger Army infantry outflanking his front.
There's a tiger army on the right!
And what about the left?
Zuo Liangyu turned his head sharply and looked to the left with the Dutchman's monoculars. Sure enough, in the grove on the left, there were also Tiger Ben infantry outflanking in front of him.
Looking at this posture, the Tiger Ben Army at least dispatched tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to chase and kill him.
How could the Tiger Army cross the battle line and kill at their side? What are Wu Sangui's broken soldiers and horses doing? Wu Sangui...
Zuo Liangyu thought for a moment, and suddenly understood that he had been sold by Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui must have held a grudge against himself for leaving him to break off, and deliberately sold a flaw to let the Tiger Ben Army cross the battle line.
Zuo Liangyu was immediately furious.
"God-damned Liaodong thief..."
Suddenly, a general rushed over in front, and it was clearly Zhao Zhu, the deputy general of the Chinese army of Zuo Liangyu.
"Handsome! Oops! The small bridge ahead was controlled by the Tiger Ben cavalry that had bypassed, and we could not cross the river. ”
Zuo Liangyu was so shocked that he was sweating all over his body, and he was soaked with cold sweat all of a sudden. Obviously, the Tiger Army has completely surrounded itself.
Zuo Liangyu looked left and right in a panic, pointed to the hill to the east and said, "Go up to that hill and dig a trench on it to defend it." ”
The drummers in the army blew the horn to stop advancing, and Zuo Liangyu's wives and concubines were suddenly in chaos, crying and crying. Some maids even wanted to leave the team and escape, but were caught by Zuo Liangyu's personal soldiers and tied their hands and feet.
Five thousand Jiangbei Army infantry ran up the hill with heavy wagons, and soon fled and began to dig fortifications.
However, before Zuo Liangyu's infantry could dig a trench, Li Zhi's soldiers and horses were outflanked.
Li Laosi rode on a horse and led 15,000 soldiers and horses to surround Zuo Liangyu like an iron bucket.
Looking at the soldiers of the Jiangbei Army who were digging trenches in a panic, Li Laosi smiled.
"If you don't see the coffin, you won't cry."
A thousand mortars were lifted out and aimed at Zuo Liangyu on the hill at a distance of five hundred meters. The hill is only a few tens of meters high, and Li Laosi is ready to blow the hill into a scorched earth.
The mortar fired, and the shells shot like hail on the hill, hitting the bushes and trees on the mountain, and the bombardment sounded, setting off a storm of iron rain on the small hill.
The soldiers of the Jiangbei Army, who were still digging trenches in the open area, were suddenly blown up.
Shooting five thousand people with a thousand mortars, the density of such artillery is simply too high. The soldiers of the Jiangbei Army seemed to be named by the Tiger Ben Army, and a mortar shell exploded under their feet.
The Jiangbei army did not dare to dig trenches anymore, and only desperately tried to hide behind mountains and rocks and trees.
The Tiger Army at the foot of the mountain was not in a hurry, grabbing binoculars to search for the figures of the soldiers of the Jiangbei Army on the mountain. As soon as a flaw was discovered, a volley of mortar shells immediately beckoned over.
After about ten minutes of bombing, the mortar fired ten rounds, and the barrels of the guns were all hot, and I don't know how many people were killed on the mountain.
Suddenly, Zhao Zhu, the deputy general of Zuo Liangyu's Chinese army, led five hundred Jiading to rush out towards the south. Those housekeepers were all wearing chain mail, holding tiger guns and sabers, and they looked very elite.
The soldiers of the Tiger Army were in the mood and moved closer to the south, ready to shoot them with their rifles.
However, Zhao Zhu's charge was a false move. Just when the soldiers of the Huben Army were approaching to the south, a gap was revealed in the encirclement net in the north of the mountain, and Zuo Liangyu's eldest son Zuo Mengeng immediately rushed to the gap with a few family members on horseback, and those pro-soldiers held Zuo Liangyu's four younger sons on the horse, wanting to escape from the encirclement net.
Zuo Liangyu knew that he couldn't run out today, and he just wanted his sons to escape a way to live.
However, Zuo Liangyu's plan failed, although a small gap was exposed in the north of the mountain, but many of the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army were equipped with sniper rifles, where would Zuo Mengeng easily escape.
As soon as Li Laosi waved his hand, the horn sounded, and at least two hundred sniper rifles shot at Zuo Mengeng and his party. The fleeing people and horses were suddenly covered in blood, and the children of the Zuo family on horseback were beaten into a hornet's nest, fell under the horses one by one, and rolled all the way down the hillside.
Zuo Liangyu on the top of the mountain saw this scene, and his eyes suddenly became blood-red.
He was wiped out once in Xuzhou, and he didn't expect that all his sons would be killed in Huai'an today. Zuo Liangyu took refuge in civil officials all his life, thinking that he could pursue glory and wealth, but he didn't expect to end up with the destruction of all three clans.
He ran a few steps towards the north of the mountain, looked at Zuo Menggeng's corpse, and knelt on the ground weakly.
At this time, Zuo Liangyu couldn't cry.
"Tom tom!" "Tom" "Tom! ”
Seeing Zuo Liangyu peeking out from behind the rocks, more than 200 mortars immediately beckoned towards him.
Zuo Liangyu saw the rain of cannonballs shooting at him, his eyes widened, and he rolled forward.
However, the area covered by 200 shells was too wide, and even if Zuo Liangyu rolled more than two meters away, he still did not escape the bombardment of the shells. At least seven or eight shells exploded around Zuo Liangyu. Zuo Liangyu's body was blown apart by the shock wave in an instant, and when the explosion turned into black smoke and rose, Zuo Liangyu's body could no longer be found on the mountain.
