It has been more than half a month since the officers and soldiers occupied Zhongmu, and there is still no movement, Chen Liu's rebel army has become more and more distracted, Liu Zongmin, Tian Jianxiu and Li Guo have even begun to send their men around to "raise" grain and grass, only the general Li Yan is still in the camp to train his soldiers without the slightest change.

At midnight that morning, in the northern camp of the city, the general Li Yan was promoted to the general as usual, but this time he ordered a little more, not only Li Nian and other cronies who followed him in the uprising were all listed, but even the newly recruited Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu, Zhao Ru, Sun Biao and other small management teams were also listed.

Li Yan was still leaning back in his chair as usual at first, looking lazy, but after all the generals arrived, he suddenly turned straight and stood up and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Lord Shoufu ordered someone to send news that the passage between Chen Liu, Xinzheng, Fugou, and Taikang has been choked, and we can do it!" Last night, I had already sent someone to inform Lord Shoufu that we would act on time this morning, and that the Guanning Iron Cavalry had already set off at this time, and that it would arrive at Chenliu before the hour. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, they were either Zhang Bin's cronies or Li Yan's cronies, naturally they already knew what Li Yan wanted to do, and after waiting for so many days, they could finally start acting.

Li Yan glanced around with a serious face, and then said to Li Nian on the left: "Li Nian, how are the preparations in the city?" ”

Li Nian didn't have the appearance of being a hanger at this time, and he also arched his hand with a serious face: "General Hui, last night his subordinates have sent someone to inform the internal response in the city, and they have also sent someone to reply, and when they changed shifts last night, they replaced all the guards in the north with their own people." ”

Li Yan nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "Li Nian, Zhao Ru, Sun Biao, order you to lead a large army to occupy the northern city wall, and be ready to respond at any time." ”

When Li Nian, Zhao Ru, and Sun Biao heard this, they arched their hands and said in unison: "The subordinates obey the order." ”

Li Yan then ordered: "Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu, order you to each lead a small team of elite masters to accompany me to carry out the beheading operation, and the rest of the elite masters will arrange to meet between the north gate and Li Zicheng's temporary palace." ”

When Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu heard this, they also bowed their hands and said in unison: "The subordinates obey the order." ”

There was no trace of disbelief on their faces, although they had already been promoted to the third rank of the imperial court, but they were sincere in respect of Li Yan, because Li Yan was indeed a civil and military all-rounder, and what was even more rare was that he was dedicated to the country and the people, without a little selfishness, and people could not admire him.

After giving the order, he waved his hand for the generals to go down and prepare, and then sat down again, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and waited calmly.

When the hour came, Li Nian led Zhao Ru, Sun Biao, Li Dingguo and others to walk in, and solemnly arched his hand and said: "General Qiyu, everything is ready." ”

When Li Yan heard this, he stood up and waved his hand: "Dingguo, Wenxiu, let's go." ”

After saying that, he held his head high, strode out, walked out of the tent, walked out of the camp, and went straight to the north gate of Chen Liucheng.

Behind him, a group of soldiers gathered like a stream, and soon gathered into a long dragon that stretched for several miles, followed him, and rushed straight to the north gate.

The defenders in the city could naturally see such a huge momentum, but the defenders at the north gate and the north wall didn't move at all, as if they hadn't seen it, so they let them enter the city, went up the city wall, and took over everything!

At this time, in King Chuang's temporary palace, Li Zicheng had just gotten up from the bed of a "concubine", washing lazily, his face was still confused, and he obviously didn't wake up.

He was in a daze, and the guards outside suddenly said loudly: "Qi Yu Chuang Wang, the general Li Yan asks to see." ”

Li Zicheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, this is not the county office, but his own "palace", why is this Li Yan running here, can't he wait in the county office?

He hurriedly wiped his face, then threw the towel, and was about to have someone put on his armor, when suddenly the voice of the guard came from outside: "General Li, what are you doing?" King Chuang didn't let you in! ”

This guy is in such a hurry, what the hell is going on, is it a hunger riot?

Li Zicheng opened the door curiously, and when he walked outside, he saw that Li Yan had broken into the courtyard with more than twenty guards, and his own guards seemed to have been pushed aside by him.

It just doesn't make sense!

Li Zicheng said slightly angrily: "Li Yan, what do you mean by this, do you want to rebel?" ”

He wasn't too afraid, because there were hundreds of guards in this mansion, and Li Yan's twenty or so people were not enough to see at all, and the tens of thousands of horses in the entire city were all controlled by his cronies, so he didn't believe that Li Yan dared to come nonsense.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan really had the meaning of nonsense, and he replied unceremoniously: "King Chuang, I'm afraid you're sleepy, it's you who rebels, and you're the thief!" ”

It's overturned you, Li Zicheng couldn't help but shout angrily when he heard this: "Come on, take down this thief for me!" ”

When his guards heard this, they immediately pulled out their knives and pounced without hesitation, but they didn't expect that Li Yan's guards also pulled out their knives without hesitation and went up directly, this guy really wants to rebel!

Li Zicheng was stunned, the two sides had already met together, and something that made him stunned appeared, the guards he carefully selected were like paper paste, and they were cut down by Li Yan's guards in two clicks!

Li Yan glanced back and saw that the guards in the courtyard had cleaned up, so he ordered without hesitation: "Wenxiu, you take someone to block the gate." ”

Immediately, he turned his head again, put on a straight face, and said coldly to Li Zicheng: "King Chuang, I originally thought that you were dedicated to the people, but now I know that you are not for the people of Li at all, but for yourself!" ”

Li Zicheng looked at the guards lying on the ground, and then at Li Yan who was covered with frost, and finally got scared, he pointed at Li Yan and trembled: "You, what do you want to do?" Don't come nonsense, the whole city is full of my people, even if you kill me, I won't be able to get out. ”

Li Yan glanced at him contemptuously, and said disdainfully: "You don't have to worry about this, Dingguo, on!" ”

After all, he was a general under Li Zicheng, so he didn't want to "kill the old master" with his own hands.

Li Dingguo didn't have this scruples, he rushed out with an arrow and shot Li Zicheng's neck!

Li Zicheng was confused and shocked at this time, plus Li Dingguo's spear was as fast as lightning, in a panic, he didn't even dodge, "poof", a bloody arrow flew into the air, Li Zicheng covered his neck, with an unbelievable expression on his face, and fell to the ground on his back with a "snap".

A generation of heroes died like this!

Seeing this, Li Yan was stunned for a moment, then pulled out his saber, threw it to Li Dingguo, and said hurriedly: "Quick, take his head, let's withdraw!" ”
