Chapter 54: Revisiting the Old Place

Although Ai Nengqi wanted to escort Zhang Xianzhong out of Chengdu, how could I let him be easy to do it, buddy.

I immediately ordered Xia Wanchun to meet An Dehai, the deputy general of Ainengqi, and then took Zhang Zhao and 20,000 horses, divided into four teams, and began to march towards the palace.

Soon, the army reached the palace, and Zhang Xianzhong's men and horses were still resisting stubbornly, but they couldn't withstand the Ming troops surging from all directions.

Seeing such a situation, I thought to myself that no matter how great Ai Nengqi's ability was, it would be impossible to take Zhang Xianzhong out of the palace.

Immediately, I personally led a commando of 200 people to rush into the palace and prepared to kill Zhang Xianzhong.

Who knew that just after pushing open the gate of the palace, suddenly a fierce fire struck, and half of the burned Lao Tzu's beard fell off.

Nima! In order to escape for his life, Zhang Xianzhong actually set fire to the palace of the King of Shu, which had been preserved for thousands of years, which was a building left over from the time when Liu Bei was in charge of Shu Han.

In view of this, I ordered the soldiers to surround the burning palace and wait for Zhang Xianzhong and Ai Nengqi to come out.

However, after waiting for more than an hour, the palace burned to ashes, and the two still did not come out.

In this way, buddy, I panicked.

I thought to myself, could it be that Zhang Xianzhong and Ai Nengqi thought that they couldn't break through and committed suicide directly?

But if you live to see people, you have to see corpses when you die, if Zhang Xianzhong doesn't die, then buddy will be in big trouble later.

Think about it, if he hadn't died, when Li Dingguo arrived in Chengdu, he would definitely have illusions in his heart, after all, Zhang Xianzhong was his father-in-law. Naturally, he would not surrender to me, but would strike a blow back against me.

"Search for me, you must find the bodies of the two!"

At my command, the army rushed into the burned palace and began to dig into the ground and search.

After searching for a while, one of the generals under my command ran towards me and said, "Your Majesty, there is a secret passage in this palace, Zhang Xianzhong has run away!" ”

After that, I walked over to take a look, and under the dragon chair in the palace hall, there was really a secret passage.

"! Zhang Xianzhong, this beast is too cunning! ”

I couldn't help but curse, and then I told someone to go into the tunnel to see where the exit was.

As a result, the person who got in came out and told me that the exit of the secret passage had been blocked and there was no way out.

Hearing this, buddy, I was half angry, and I began to wonder where Zhang Xianzhong would flee.

Suddenly, I remembered that after the Qing army broke through Chengdu, Zhang Xianzhong fled to Shunqing Mansion, an important town in northern Sichuan, overnight, and prepared to go south from Shunqing to Chongqing.

So I was ready to lead my troops to pursue in the direction of Shunqing, but I didn't feel right when I thought about it.

Because the reason why Zhang Xianzhong wanted to go south from Shunqing to Chongqing at that time was because the Manchu Qing had occupied the whole of Shaanxi, as well as Lizhou, Mianzhou and other places in northwest Sichuan, so he could only go to Chongqing.

And now, Lizhou and Mianzhou are still in his hands, and he can completely cross the Qinling Mountains from Lizhou and return to Yan'an, northern Shaanxi, where he started.

Therefore, if you want to intercept and kill Zhang Xianzhong, you can't just fortify in Shunqing, but also have to catch up in northwest Sichuan.

Thinking of this, I asked Zhang Zhao to take 20,000 soldiers and horses to Shunqing to block the attack, and then I cooperated with Xia Wanchun to take the remaining Ming army and chase along the direction of Lizhou.

Just when the army was about to set off, the tiger cavalry battalion I sent out to rescue Mu Xia in Meixian County all returned.

He knelt on the ground with a thud and said to me in frustration: "Your Majesty, the last general is ashamed of the emperor's grace and did not save the little county lord, please atone for the emperor's sins!" ”

Nima, when I heard this, my buddy beat him for the truth, but now is the time to use people, so I have to endure it.

"Can't you stop more than 100 Tibetans from even having 800 tiger cavalry soldiers?"

"The emperor doesn't know that in addition to the 100 Tibetans in Minjiang, there are 3,000 soldiers and horses in Qionglai, so ......"

Hearing this, Lao Tzu's heart was cold, and he suddenly found that he was extremely worried about Mu Xia, a rude girl.

After calming down, I asked, "Did those Tibetans hurt the little county lord?" ”

"The Tibetan named Dorje didn't hurt the little lord, and, moreover, ......"

"And what?"

"And he also told us not to chase, saying that not only would he not hurt the little county lord, but he would also take the little county lord as the princess!"

Nima! As soon as he said this, Lao Tzu became even more worried.

Thinking that Mu Xia was humiliated in the crotch by that vulgar Tibetan prince, buddy, my heart tingled inexplicably.

However, now it is important to kill Zhang Xianzhong, buddy, I don't have time to withdraw to rescue her, and in the end I can only send another 5,000 soldiers and horses to intercept the Tibetans.

After dealing with this matter, buddy, I led the army out of Chengdu with a nervous mood and began to go to the direction of Lizhou to intercept and kill Zhang Xianzhong.

……

As soon as I walked out of Chengdu, the people along the way came to me and told me that Zhang Xianzhong had indeed run in the direction of Lizhou under the stars. He also said that on the way to escape, this beast actually killed people when he saw them, and he didn't want to leave a single living mouth.

Hearing this, the buddy gritted his teeth against Zhang Xianzhong.

When this beast looted the people's money before, it was enough to kill some people, but at this time, he was still bloodthirsty. It is no wonder that the later Sichuan people hated it to the core.

After I appeased the people who reported the news, I ran all the way and finally caught up with Zhang Xianzhong in Mianzhou.

Zhang Xianzhong's beast hid in the city of Mianzhou, and after seeing the Ming army coming, he directly took the people in the city as hostages, and then burned Mianzhou and fled again.

But buddy, I have already figured out the route of his escape, so I did not pursue him directly, but made a detour to Lizhou, preparing to annihilate him in Lizhou in one fell swoop.

What I didn't expect was that I stayed in Lizhou for two days, and Zhang Xianzhong's murderous demon didn't appear.

As a result, the spies reported to me that after Zhang Xianzhong knew that I was going to Lizhou, he turned back east and went to Langzhong, an important town in northern Sichuan, under the protection of Ai Nengqi.

So I rushed to Langzhong again, and Zhang Xianzhong could only abandon the city and flee to Shunqing Mansion in northern Sichuan.

At this time, Zhang Zhao had already arrived at Shunqing Mansion, and after he received my holy decree, he marched west from Shunqing Mansion and attacked Zhang Xianzhong at both ends with me.

Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe fate has already been arranged by God.

Zhang Xianzhong was finally attacked by me and Zhang Zhao to Xichong County, a small city in northern Sichuan, and the place where the history books record his death happened to be Xichong County.

After the army arrived in Xichong, buddy, I was sincerely scared in my heart.

Because Xichong is exactly my hometown, I never thought that I would be able to return to my hometown after crossing over, and I was about to kill the demons condemned by my hometown for generations.

Seeing that the people in my hometown were killed by Zhang Xianzhong on the side of the road a hundred years ago, my heart was extremely sad, and I finally understood why the people in my hometown were ashamed of Zhang Xianzhong's visit for generations.

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong was like a turtle in an urn, surrounded by groups, and could only hold on to Xichong City for a long time.

Buddy, I didn't have the slightest softness, led the army to directly break through the city gate, and then fought with Zhang Xianzhong's 3,000 remnants.

Seeing this, Zhang Xianzhong fled in a hurry, and under the leadership of Ai Nengqi, he was finally forced to Phoenix Mountain behind the county seat.

After hiding in Phoenix Mountain, Zhang Xianzhong saw that he was going to die, so he began to beg me not to kill him, saying that he was willing to surrender to me.

But how could buddy forgive this murderous nightmare!

I directly killed the messenger he sent to Toucheng, and then led my troops to attack Phoenix Mountain.

As soon as he reached the top of the mountain, he saw Zhang Xianzhong unkempt and trying to escape.

Buddy, I quickly stretched out my bow and set up an arrow, only to hear a whoosh, and the arrow passed like a meteor, heading straight for Zhang Xianzhong's head.

Just when the arrow was about to shoot at Zhang Xianzhong, he actually grabbed his favorite son Ai Nengqi and blocked him in front of him.

"Father, you ......"

Eneng was hit by an arrow in the back and lost his life in an instant.

Damn it! Seeing that Ainengchi died, buddy, I was so angry that I was about to explode.

Because I had a plan, I wanted to recruit him and Zhang Xianzhong's other three righteous sons for my use.

And now that he is dead, I am really worried that when Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang find out, they will have opinions about me, thinking that I am too ruthless and will be unwilling to attach to me.

Thinking of this, I roared angrily: "Demon, take your life!" ”

Then three arrows were fired at once, and the arrows were killed.

After only listening to a few swishing sounds, Zhang Xianzhong was hit by arrows in the chest and legs, and fell to the ground in one fell to the ground, and then fell off the cliff with a roll.

"The Ming soldiers listened to the order and went down the mountain to search for Zhang Xianzhong, I must kill him with my own hands!"

As soon as I gave the order, the soldiers rushed down the mountain like tigers and wolves.

As a result, when I ran down, Zhang Xianzhong's murderous demon was not only not killed, but also escaped.
