For two consecutive months, Shen Xing worked hard to develop the people's livelihood and invigorate the economy, while dispatching elite soldiers to encroach on Li Zicheng's army in Hubei step by step.

Shen Xing took care of Zhang Xianzhong, who fled westward, and turned around to kill him, so he did not pursue the whole army, but only sent elite troops all the way to attack and disturb, but in the face of millions of peasant troops, it was like scratching the boots and not affecting Li Zicheng's army at all.

Sun Chuanting relied on natural hazards, stubbornly resisted according to the situation, and although the improved artillery provided by Shen Xing in his hand was not the latest, it really made Li Zicheng suffer a lot of losses, especially the advantage of hand slipping was vividly played, Li Zicheng originally planned to take down Shaanxi and enter Henan in one go.

With the vision of his natural rebel, he has long seen that Henan, which has been plagued by disasters for many years, is a natural nourishment for him to respond to every call, but in the face of Sun Chuanting, who refused to back down at all, Li Zicheng sighed with admiration, and was so anxious that he thought hard day and night about a good way to break the city.

When the rainy season came unexpectedly, Li Zicheng was happy to jump three feet high when he got a report from the military bull Venus, shouting that he was destined to return, and if such a thing happened in Shanxi, where cement roads were common, there would be no big thing at all, but in poor and backward Henan and Shaanxi, heavy rain was pouring down, the roads were muddy, and Sun Chuanting's grain road was in danger.

Shen Xing, who was pacifying the people in Xiangyang City, heard about this, and couldn't help but mourn for three minutes for Sun Chuanting, the most brave and loyal general of the Ming Dynasty, is it really the will of heaven? Will the judgment of the death of the court be realized for a time?

The two captains of Wind and Rain rushed over after receiving Shen Xing's order, and the five hundred marines stood tall and quietly looked at Shen Xing who was walking back and forth, waiting for the young leader's supreme order.

"You are lying down in Shaanxi, there is only one purpose, that is, to rescue General Sun Chuanting, don't care about anything else, at all costs, I want General Sun to stand in front of me intact!" In a dead place surrounded by heavy troops, it is easy and easy to rescue a person, but if it is replaced by the first target of saving the enemy army, it will be difficult to enter the sky.

Li Zicheng is not a fool, he must know the importance of Sun Chuanting, the encirclement of the army is considered light, if there is a military attack against Sun Chuanting in advance, then the marines can be said to be nine deaths, Shen Xing gave such an order, it is also very difficult, the marines cost his life one by one, but repeatedly weigh Sun Chuanting is a rare general, as the old saying goes, it is easy to get a good daughter and it is difficult to find!

The marines accepted the task without hesitation and died generously, and before leaving, Shen Xing finally couldn't help but tell the two captains of Fengyu that if the matter was really difficult to implement, they could give up. The two captains didn't reply, just smiled and walked away.

Henan ushered in heavy rain for a long time, everyone was happy, frowning for the only grandson Chuanting, he accepted Chongzhen's order to supervise the military affairs of Shaanxi and Henan, during which the continuous reorganization and expansion of the army once made the Shaanxi border defense impregnable, and the previous several battles with Li Zicheng were also victorious.

The arrival of the rainy season was not a big deal, as long as he insisted on not fighting, he could completely protect himself, but Chongzhen Lao'er, who preferred great joy, didn't know what kind of sheep epilepsy had occurred, maybe it was a few victories that made him see hope, or maybe it was a monstrous hatred for Li Zicheng, and he ordered Sun Chuanting to take the initiative to attack Li Zicheng several times in a row.

I'm really not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of meeting pig-like teammates, but unfortunately General Sun met him, and more than once.

The two armies faced off in the north of Sanmenxia in Jiaxian County, Henan, Li Zicheng mobilized the local people to fortify the wall and clear the wilderness, so that Sun Chuanting's army could not take food and pay on the spot, and on the other hand, he sent the general Liu Zongmin to lead more than 10,000 cavalry to block the grain route of the Ming army.

Sun Chuanting was in internal and external difficulties, making matters worse, it can be said that he was tired, after learning the news, he hurriedly led the army back to the division to open up the grain road, Li Zicheng seized the opportunity to lead the army to pursue, more than 100,000 Ming troops were defeated, Sun Chuanting was unable to return to the sky and fought hard for several days, with more than 40,000 dead and wounded soldiers.

At this time, seeing that the general trend of Tongguan was gone, Bai Guangen, and Gao Jie, the two generals, actually ignored Sun Chuanting's life and death, and went out of the customs to beg Li Zicheng to surrender. Sun Chuanting had a chasing army in front of him, and there was no way out after that, so he was disheartened and dismissed tens of thousands of troops, and only led more than 1,000 personal soldiers to retreat into the mountain recess and vowed not to surrender.

Li Zicheng escorted the Sun family to kneel in front of the battle, Sun Chuanting still stood still, and the eldest son Sun Jihe, who went out with his father, begged and burst into tears, but was scolded by Sun Chuanting and bluntly said that the Sun family died for the country and died well.

The butcher's knife fell, regardless of men, women, old and young, and the bright red blood stained the earth, Sun Chuanting stood tall in the mountain pass, drew his sword and roared angrily to give the final attack order, Sun Jihe wiped away his tears and resolutely followed.

The marine team hidden on the top of the mountain saw with their own eyes that Sun Chuanting's feat of ignoring his family and swearing to die was also completely infected, and thirty slapstick guns fired rapidly one after another, and Li Zicheng's army was dizzy in an instant, and the formation was in chaos for a while. Sun Chuanting regained his senses and took the cavalry to take the opportunity to fight his way out of the encirclement.

Liu Zongmin deserved to be the number one general under Li Zicheng, and quickly stabilized the cavalry brigade that was in turmoil for a short time, and took the lead in leading more than 10,000 horsemen to bite Sun Chuanting's personal guards.

Seeing that the horses fell to the ground one after another after exhaustion, Sun Chuanting had no choice but to dismount to find a hiding place, at this time, the marines who succeeded in the sneak attack also followed suit, looking at this group of murderous soldiers with colorful cheeks, Sun Chuanting's heart was full of doubts: "Dare to ask who sent the general!" The army of thieves is approaching, so it's better for you to leave quickly! ”

After Sun Chuanting said these words, he sat on the ground panting like a cow, as if he had the heart of death, and he didn't want to do any more useless struggles, although the rescue force was strong, it was only more than 500 people.

"Returning to the capital division, we will be sent by the Marquis of Zhenming to protect you and break out of the encirclement!" The two captains of the wind and rain said in a decisive manner, Sun Chuanting was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Sun Mou has fought all his life, I didn't expect it to come, and there is a Shen Zhenming thousands of miles to rescue, Xiangsheng said well, the Shen family is a good boy who values love and righteousness, Daming has this son who can't die, he Li Zicheng slaughtered my Sun family, this revenge should be revenge by Zhenming Hou, you go back, the general of the defeated army is ashamed to live speechless to His Majesty!" ”

Captain Feng stepped forward and hugged his fists and gave a deep salute, and suddenly slammed into the back of Sun Chuanting's head, Sun Chuanting's hundreds of guards were shocked, and they all drew their swords to join the team, but fortunately, Sun Jihe saw that his father was just fainting, and immediately understood what the other party meant, so he shouted loudly.

"Major General, in the current situation, it is impossible for us to take everyone out of the siege, do you understand!" Sun Kewang nodded, then turned to look at the blood-stained soldiers, unable to make a decision for a long time.

"As long as the marshal and the major general can break out of the encirclement, I will die without regrets!" "No regrets!" The three hundred heroes resounded in unison, and Sun Jihe knelt on the ground and bowed to them

Only half of the more than 100 marines who were in charge of covering rushed back on horseback. "Report to the captain, the enemy cavalry brigade has been temporarily frightened by artillery fire ** and does not dare to move forward, and they will be able to break through the defense line in half an hour at most!"

Each of the three hundred and fifty Sun family guards had more than a dozen of the most powerful hand bullets on their bodies, scattered within a radius of several hundred meters to lie on the ground and wait for the final moment to come, and the remaining marines took the Sun family father and son to quickly rush to the place where the war horses had been prepared in advance and continued to move forward.

Liu Zongmin reined in his war horse and looked at the severed arms and limbs all over the ground, he closed his eyes and gave an order to stop the pursuit, more than half of the ambushes of more than 10,000 cavalry and hundreds of people were killed and wounded, such a lifeless way of fighting, he had never seen it in his life, such a warrior who regarded death as his home made him afraid, and the price paid for Sun Chuanting alone was too great to be worth it.
