Li Zicheng's own soldiers all have war horses, but as soon as they soaked in urine, they rushed to the north gate of Lintao Mansion, at this time the north gate has been completely controlled by Ma Youshui, and the defenders near the city gate have completely lost the ability to resist.

Ma Youshui heard the sound of horses' hooves, and knew that Li Zicheng had arrived, so he hurriedly greeted him out of the city gate, "Governor! ”

"There's water, how's it going, is everything going well?" Li Zicheng didn't see the bound defenders, and there were only one or two lights at the head of the city, which was exactly what it looked like to defend the city on weekdays.

"Back to the Grand Governor, the north gate of the city has been completely controlled, and the brothers have established a perimeter defense line in the city, but we have few people and have not attacked the city for the time being."

Li Zicheng nodded, Ma Youshui only had two gunners from a hundred households around him, if he rashly attacked the barracks, there might be no problem in winning, but there was no guarantee that the defenders would form an encirclement, and the final result would be that the defenders fled in large numbers, and the information that the Heavenly Mandate Army would march into Longyou would be leaked out.

If he completely occupies Longyou, he is not worried that these information will be leaked out, anyway, he will have to face the army of the imperial court, but now that he is attacking the critical moment of attacking the prefectures and counties of Longyou, it is better not to make extraneous branches.

He swept his eyes and said, "Where is General Tao Zhiyong?" ”

Ma Youshui hurriedly ordered the soldiers to push Tao Zhiyong over, "Governor Dadu, his subordinates are worried that he will bite indiscriminately, and they have already blocked his sin with cotton cloth!" ”

Now that the city gate has been occupied, and the infantry behind is about to arrive, Li Zicheng no longer has to worry, so he ordered to take out the cotton cloth in Tao Zhiyong's mouth, and said with a smile: "General, now do you understand the current situation?" ”

Tao Zhiyong blinked his eyes, and did not shout, but said, "Governor, you are ......"

"We are thieves," Li Zicheng laughed, "There are only two ways in front of you, either surrender or die, I heard that you recently forcibly married an aunt's wife, if you die, this Lu family will have to go to someone else...... Haha......"

"You ......" Tao Zhiyong was a little confused, in the face of life and death, he temporarily let go of the delicate Lu family, but how could Prince Su be with the thief, could it be that he wanted to seek the world? Governor, you are rebels...... It's a good man, the prince of Nasu ......"

"Those who know the times are Junjie, don't hide it from the generals, Prince Su is already our people," Li Zicheng glanced at Zhu Zhihong, and then turned his gaze back, "Give you a pee time to think, whether to surrender, join our group, or be loyal to the country, and leave your newly married aunt from now on...... Ao, by the way, the Lanzhou guards have surrendered, and the Ganzhou guards who refuse to surrender have been completely wiped out by us! ”

"This ......" Tao Zhiyong also looked at Prince Su, it was not very clear in the dark, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he didn't speak, obviously not denying the situation that the Metropolitan Governor just said.

Since even Prince Su has surrendered, I am a general, how can I be loyal? Tao Zhiyong's legs were weak, and he bowed to the ground, "Dadudu, the villain is willing to surrender!" ”

"That's right, surrender can avoid death," Li Zicheng just smiled faintly, and how happy he was, "When we enter the city, you have to take the initiative to recruit your brothers, and you can also save their lives, otherwise, as soon as my army arrives, it will be killed!" ”

But he said in his heart: If it falls like this, the soldiers of Lintao Wei have not seen the strong combat effectiveness of the Heavenly Mandate Army, and they are afraid that they will not be convinced, and it will be difficult to be intimate for a while, and they will be temporarily embarrassed.

Seeing that Tao Zhiyong did not answer, Li Zicheng knew that he was still hesitating, the first rat at both ends, surrendering clearly, in fact, hoping to use the cover of darkness to try to reverse the situation, he did not break it, but he was secretly happy in his heart, and he always wanted to open the eyes of the soldiers of Lintaowei.

Li Zicheng followed Ma Youshui into the city, patrolled around the city gate for a while, and saw that the soldiers had already guarded the city gate, so he hid in the dark.

About a bag of cigarettes, the infantry behind rushed to the city, and Ma Youshui responded to enter the city, Li Zicheng asked Qiu Shike's Lanzhou guard to immediately seize the four city gates, "Guerrilla general, in front of the battle, you must be careful, if a mosquito flies out of the city gate, it must be dealt with by military discipline!" ”

"Don't worry, if the villain lets go of a fly and mosquito, he will immediately raise his head to see him!" Qiu Shike bowed and saluted, and then disappeared into the darkness.

He knew that the stakes were very high, and he didn't dare to take it lightly, compared with cleaning up the defenders in the barracks, guarding the city gate was the easiest thing, if the defenders escaped from the barracks, they would inevitably become routs, and when they arrived at the city gate, they were already frightened, where was there still combat effectiveness?

Guarding the city gate is basically picking up military merits, which is the greatest care and trust of the Metropolitan Governor for him.

Li Zicheng saw that Lanzhou Wei had completely disappeared into the darkness, and he didn't say much, so he took all five hundred gunmen of Ma Youshui's department, escorted Tao Zhiyong, surrounded Zhu Zhihong, and quickly killed the barracks.

The soldiers in the barracks had not yet fallen asleep, and when they heard the sound of chaotic footsteps, the sentry felt that something was wrong, so he shouted and asked, "Who?" How dare you trespass into the barracks? ”

Ma Youshui approached Li Zicheng and whispered, "The Governor ...... Dadu"

Li Zicheng slowed down his horse speed and said in a low voice: "Shoot and kill!" ”

"Yes, Grand Duke!" Ma Youshui jumped down from the horse, whispered a few words to the soldier beside him, the soldier quickly disappeared into the night, and then there was a sound of "bang, bang, bang" in front of him, and the soldiers of the Mandate of Heaven Army who were hiding in the darkness began to shoot, and the sentry of the Lintao guard who was caught off guard suddenly fell in a pool of blood, and mechanically let out the last scream of his life.

The shouts alarmed the entire barracks, and the soldiers were immediately confused, and in the shouts of the officers, they picked up the equipment at hand and went out of the barracks one after another, but fortunately the Mandate of Heaven did not attack, they only surrounded the perimeter of the barracks.

The soldiers of the Lintao guard gathered more and more, and the voices of the people were full of people, they carried torches, and built a huge physical barrier outside the barracks, listening to the sounds, at least hundreds, in the shouts of the officers, they became bold and orderly, and they slowly leaned towards the dark shadows in the distance of the barracks, and from time to time they shouted and cursed something.

Tao Zhiyong was secretly happy in his heart, he fell into the trap of Prince Su tonight, and he was almost captured, and now he is being detained by the Mandate of Heaven Army.

Fortunately, the Lintao Guard is still there, as long as the soldiers of the Lintao Guard can break through the darkness and use the cover of the terrain to kill the Mandate of Heaven Army, he can take advantage of the chaos and break away from the control of the Mandate of Heaven Army.

He has already seen clearly, the soldiers used by the Mandate of Heaven Army to attack the barracks are only hundreds, less than the soldiers of the Lintao Guard, and they will not sneak attack, if there is a fierce battle head-on, can the two soldiers of the Lintao Guard, who has just been trained, still lose to a soldier of the Mandate of Heaven Army? These idiot Mandate Army, if they sneak attack at night, maybe there is still a chance.

Tao Zhiyong shrank in the shadows, trying not to arouse the ideas of others, creating opportunities for the next escape, he looked around, in the faint light of the fire, the soldiers of the Heavenly Mandate Army did not move at all, this unknown Dadu Governor, seemed to be a little carried away, but the soldiers guarding him were not affected by the situation on the battlefield at all, and the two soldiers grabbed his bound arms tightly.

"Hey, brother, can you ...... Loosen it up a little bit, I'm going to pee on the side......"

"If you have urine, you hold it, but if you can't do it, you will pee in the crotch!"

Tao Zhiyong was frightened, this soldier, how can he be a virtuous person with this metropolitan governor, and when he talks angrily, there is no room for turning around, he snorted secretly and coldly, "Once you are planted in the hands of Lao Tzu......"

The soldiers of Lintao Wei gathered more and more, and when they saw that there was no reaction in front, they cursed and cursed.

The Mandate of Heaven Army had already set up a battle formation, and the soldiers were divided into several sections, each of which was in three horizontal columns, controlling the corners of the front, aiming at the increasingly confident Lintao Army from multiple directions.

Ma Youshui measured the distance between the two sides with the help of the shadowy torch, "Dadudu, there are only two hundred steps!" ”

Li Zicheng nodded slightly, and said, "Well, let's shoot, it's dark and the vision is poor, so you can't let the Lintao army get too close!" ”

Ma Youshui first put on a show, then patted the hem of his shirt with his hand, and shouted: "Shoot!" ”

"Bang, bang, bang......"

The first row of gunners fired, nearly two hundred rifles, and spit out faint fireworks in the first time, although they couldn't see the faces, necks, chests and other vital positions of the facing Tao soldiers, it didn't matter, they were too tightly crowded, and the salvo at this time did not need too high accuracy.

"Ah...... Mother...... Oh......"

The Lintao army relied on the strength of the crowd, and it was on their own territory, and they were bold enough to move forward, but they didn't expect that at such a distance, the Heavenly Mandate Army began to shoot, they could neither see the bullets, nor were they mentally prepared, and suddenly fell a large piece.

The screams and trumpets were endless, and in the interval between the gunners of the Mandate of Heaven, in this boundless night, it seemed even more terrifying and terrifying.

In front of the glimmer of the torches, the blood mist created a miniature rainbow.

However, on the battlefield, the soldiers on both sides had no intention of observing the saddest tragedy in the world, only Tao Zhiyong's eyes were firmly fixed on the soldiers on both sides, and he wiped the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, only to find that his little heart was almost punctured by the surging blood.

This is the time to spit and foam, and the Lintao army ...... Could it be that the Manifest Destiny Army has any secret weapon?

The Lintao army on the opposite side was also stunned, they didn't expect that the range of the Heavenly Mandate Weapon was so against the sky, if it weren't for the various shouts of their companions rolling on the ground, their brains would have almost short-circuited.

The soldiers in the back didn't know what was going on, and even thought that the small commandos of the Mandate of Heaven Army were sneaking up at night, but there was no enemy in front of them, so they could only wave their swords and guns into the night, not only to scare the Mandate Army, but also to embolden themselves.

The first row of gunners of the Mandate of Heaven was loading, this was their first night battle, and their vision was much worse than that of the day, although they had also practiced simple night loading, but after all, they were not as agile as the day.

The second row of gunners had long been impatient, and they did not give the Lintao army time to think.

People who don't have time to think are free from pain.

The Lintao army was in chaos, but it was still within the range of the rifles, and from the afterglow of the torches, vague figures could still be seen, bullets whistling towards these shadows, another wave of blood rain, and all kinds of screams shrouded in blood rain.
