Chapter 701: The End of the Road
Hundreds of pro-soldier knights chased after him, and then he encountered more than a dozen Zhang Xianzhong's pro-soldiers.
There is no doubt that these people deliberately broke away from their own team.
They found that the big boss had been incorporated into the officers, and they all consciously volunteered to participate in the pursuit of the eight kings of the former big boss, striving to get the performance and be left by the "God of War" as an official soldier.
Zhang Xianzhong's cavalry had to bypass the defense area of the "God of War" men and horses to have a chance to escape. How easy is this to say, is it child's play to spread the net on all sides? Where is the obedience and discipline of the intellectual young soldiers, who can be imagined?
At the monitoring points set up by the "God of War" soldiers, soldiers take turns to monitor the 200-mile area with telescopes, which can be said to be fully covered without leaving dead ends.
There are more than a dozen people squatting in shifts at 12 o'clock in the hundreds of scout monitoring points, and as long as there are rogue bandits approaching, there will be intercepting "God of War" men and horses, and the attack will be absolutely accurate and the use of troops will be reasonable.
There is a large group of horseback rogues, and the scouts will even relay the flag through one station, and the information can be transmitted to the general praise painting department in less than half an hour, and it will not be affected at night, and the agreed light code can be transmitted over a longer distance.
In this way, the efficiency of Huang Sheng's command to encircle and suppress the rogues can be imagined, under the monitoring of the Huang family's scouts, even Jiannu and Tartar can't escape from their hands, and the quality of the rogues is not comparable to that of Jiannu, and of course there is no possibility of escaping.
Zhang Xianzhong is a master of escape, who has been on the run for more than ten years and has been playing hide and seek with officers and soldiers for many years.
He knew that there must be sharp soldiers to explore the way, and he had to choose a path with high mountains and dense forests to advance in concealment, but unfortunately he did not succeed.
Because the arrangement of the "God of War" is to wait for the rabbit, the goal is not to let go of an old bandit, there are scouts lurking in mountain passes, intersections and even dense forests, and when they detect the approach of the rogue on horseback, they will send cavalry to surround and suppress it.
Every time Zhang Xianzhong found that the road ahead was impassable, he had to lose a few or a dozen sharp soldiers, and the embarrassed Eight Kings ran for a day or two and failed to jump out of the encirclement.
They have been circling around the territory of Fengyang Mansion, and they can't play around when they go around.
Zhang Xianzhong is depressed! The previous method of dealing with the officers and soldiers was completely ineffective, and it was difficult to succeed in even running away with only a few hundred cavalry from the old battalion, and he even wanted everyone to disperse and hide in the mountains for a while.
Who knew that this would not work, because he had already seen the "God of War" mountain soldiers searching the mountains from a distance several times, and heard the barking of "Wangwang" dogs.
Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can be invincible, Huang Sheng has long sent Li Xihan with a team to study how to lock Zhang Xianzhong, of course, the layout of the heaven and earth net is not to look at the sky, it is definitely targeted.
Combined with geography and the information it has mastered, the Praise and Painting Department has carefully arranged the key points, secondary points, and general defense arrangements.
Li Xihan didn't know where Zhang Xianzhong was preparing to escape, he had already arranged a heavy army to spread a net on the road where the thieves must pass, and each stronghold had at least one hundred general cavalry ready to go.
Li Xihan not only arranged an ambush on the road where Zhang Xianzhong had to escape, but also arranged more than a dozen hidden piles of the military intelligence department in the Gucheng area.
The agents and the civilians who have been inspired by the "God of War" all keep their eyes open and pay close attention to outsiders, even if some rogue is lucky enough to escape here, the fate that awaits is still tied.
How to compete for the hearts of the people, how can Zhang Xianzhong be compared with Huang Sheng, and Huang Sheng still has the righteousness of the court in his hands, the "God of War" people regard the people as relatives to help the poor, and the people have seen it with their own eyes, and the people are of course willing to do their best for the "God of War".
Li Xihan mobilized the common people to participate in the joint defense and distinguish the rogue gangsters, of course, it was twice the result with half the effort, and all in all, the eyes of the masses were bright.
Of course, in order to avoid the rogue from destroying again, it is very important to encircle and annihilate them in the already smashed Fengyang Mansion.
Along the way, the observation posts found that the rogue escaped on horseback, and the Ming cavalry immediately dispatched to surround and intercept it, because the soldiers of the "God of War" all knew that the rogue with a horse was an old bandit even if he was not a big leader, and of course he would not let them escape.
Bitten by the "God of War", a cavalryman who is always waiting for work, even if the rogue has thousands of troops and horses, he can't get rid of it, and the brother troops who receive the flag to deliver the news will immediately form a circle.
Two days and one night passed, and Zhang Xianzhong, who was at the end of the road, still had two or three hundred defeated soldiers who were sleepy and lacking horses, and their war horses were really physically exhausted, so they had to enter the hilly and undulating mountainous areas, and hide in a col called Wolf's Nest Mountain at night to rest.
It was deeper and heavier, the night was as cold as water, Zhang Xianzhong and his subordinates were wet and didn't dare to make a fire to keep warm, and some of the soldiers were resentful in ......their hearts.
Liu Guozheng, who was tracked down, had already discovered that Zhang Xianzhong was wandering around the boundary of Fengyang Mansion, and he knew that the Liukou was already facing a desperate situation, and he was not in a hurry at all.
Liu Guozheng encountered a blocking point arranged by his brother troops, and took his subordinates to eat a hot one, rested before going on the road, and replaced the tired war horses and handed them over to the brother troops to take care of.
Liu Guozheng led his own troops to follow and pursue, and there were troops within a radius of 200 miles to intercept them.
There are also more and more mountain soldiers and vehicle-mounted infantry searching the mountain, and many Liu Guoneng troops who have surrendered to Cheng have taken the initiative to join, and they have worked particularly hard to participate in the investigation of the mountain net.
Many of these people know the so-called Thirty-six Earth Demons, and it is impossible for the big leaders of the rogue to get through in the dark.
Because most of the fortresses were breached from the inside, the rogue was already quite chaotic, and now everyone has long since rebelled, and the thieves will become the names of the minions.
Therefore, everyone in the little minions strives for the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and looks forward to becoming an auxiliary soldier under the command of a glorious "god of war" from now on.
If you are lucky enough to catch a big fish and be specially approved to become a "God of War" regular soldier, you will make a lot of money, everyone knows the treatment of the "Nanming" soldiers, and the salary and benefits of an ordinary soldier when they go out on a mission are about to catch up with the Daming County Lord's salary.
After chasing for two days, Liu Guozheng and his entourage met three Zhang Xianzhong's personal soldiers who took the initiative to find and surrender, and they told Liu Jueye that the war horses of the eight kings could not run, and now they were hiding in the col not far ahead, and they were willing to lead the Ming army to arrest the man.
Liu Guozheng did not hurry to lead his subordinates to arrest, he divided the four hundred into four teams to form a circle, only two or three hundred people were sleepy and lacked, it was impossible to be the opponent of a hundred knights of the pro-soldier team, Liu Guozheng was full of confidence.
Liu Guoneng was the most active, and more than 20 Zhang Xianzhong's Toucheng soldiers were also eager to show their determination to change their past wrongs, and they took the lead in rushing into Zhang Xianzhong's campsite.
Liu Guoneng took the lead and shouted: "Brothers, Zhang Xianzhong is at the end of his rope, everyone tied up that guy and surrendered to the 'God of War'!" ”
This kid has a bit of a conscience, and he doesn't want Zhang Xianzhong's personal soldiers to continue to resist stubbornly, and shouts for them to surrender, so as not to cause too many casualties.
