Li Benshen died a dignified death, he died in battle.

At first, there were 2,000 people who rushed to the Kuizhou army formation with him, but when they were halfway there, there were only 200 people left, and the rest all scattered and fled.

Li Benshen didn't care about the people who fled, just run away, his eyes only saw the Ming army flag fluttering very stretched on the hill in the distance, and the huge embroidered gold word "king" on the flag was so dazzling.

He roared, waved the long knife in his hand vigorously, desperately slammed his crotch and the belly of the horse, and in an instant, he crossed the distance between the enemy and the enemy, and flew to the hill to cut off the head of the Ming army.

It is that Wang Huan, the initiator of all this, without him, the Liaodong Army would not have today's defeat, and he must be killed, otherwise this person will be a great disaster in the future, and he will become a fierce enemy who shakes the fundamentals.

The two hundred personal soldiers who embraced him were all elites, and they were also his most loyal subordinates, even though the battle situation was so corrupt, they still did not give up, like a group of moths fighting fire, and collided with the mighty Kuizhou army.

Li Tingyu and Ma Xintian supported the army in the front, coldly watching a handful of fierce Qing troops who were not afraid of death not retreating but advancing, under the leadership of an ironclad general, stepping on the corpses all over the ground and shouting to kill, that scene was like a group of ants trying to block the footsteps of elephants.

The three thousand-man bird commanders fired three salvos, which shattered Li Benshen's dream of killing one Ming army and killing two Ming soldiers to earn one, and more than 200 Qing soldiers and men and horses fell in front of the battle in the rain of bullets, and many of them were shot, and there were 17 or 8 bullet holes on their bodies, and no one survived.

The fleeing Qing army became the prey of the cavalry of the Kuizhou army, and the cavalry galloping across became the kings of the yellow earth.

The Liaodong Army of 8,000 people finally escaped from the battlefield alive, but there were only hundreds of people, most of them were fast-legged Guanning cavalry, their horses were good, their horsepower was long, and the cavalry of the Kuizhou Army could not catch up under the desperate gallop.

After chasing out ten miles, Wang Huan ordered Ming Jin to collect his troops, recall all those who wantonly hunted and killed military exploits, regrouped, and after a short rest, he was about to set off again.

"Wang Yongqiang won't last long." Wang Huan said to the battalion commanders: "If we don't move quickly, their brothers and high friendship will really become benevolent, I promise to help him, don't be untrustworthy." ”

……

Wang Yongqiang is indeed a little unbearable, from Wu Sangui arrived at the city of Xi'an to the present, but in just a day and a half, the three wooden cities were divided and cut, and the small Qing army seemed to surround them.

Wang Yongzhen is the first to bear the brunt of the wooden city, the solid wooden wall is as fragile as a piece of paper under the blow of the iron bullet, the iron bullet shatters the wooden board, and then shoots into the wall, and the people who hide behind the wooden board are beaten to the flesh and blood, crying father and shouting mother, there are 30,000 soldiers in this wooden city, in fact, most of them are homeless people, real soldiers, but 1,000 people.

Seeing the flying iron bullets penetrate the human body as easily as a knife cutting tofu, the already frightened hearts of the homeless people became even more frightened, no one dared to stay within ten zhang of the wooden wall, and tens of thousands of people huddled together on a small territory on the top of the hill, shivering like quails.

At the beginning, they listened to the bewitchment of the Wang brothers, and created a country that opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and the world of the Han people should let the Han people sit and fight to Xi'an, and robbed the granary of the government to have food to eat, and the money to take, so the big guy followed Wang Yongqiang, but in front of the cannon, who in the world will sit does not seem to be a topic that should be discussed now.

Cannons and lead bullets dance like locusts, and if they touch it, they will die and be crippled, which is much more terrible than broadswords and spears, and in the face of these iron bullets, the number of people is really not the factor that determines victory or defeat.

A large number of displaced people began to flee, and they couldn't stop it, as Wang Yongqiang said, one way to overcome the fear of death is to die more terrifyingly, and now Wu Sangui has done it, he let the displaced people no longer fear the knives of Wang Yongqiang's barracks, and like crazy, he opened a door from the back of the wooden city, and fled.

Wang Yongzhen's wooden city was so broken that it didn't last even a day.

The Liaodong army rushed to Mucheng and cut off Wang Yongzhen's head in hand-to-hand combat.

Wang Yongqiang saw that his eyes were cracked, and he personally led his men and horses to try to go over to support, but the Qing army between the two wooden cities was waiting for his arrival, and after several hard fights, the unorganized displaced people in addition to taking advantage of the large number of people at the beginning of the beginning, they touched nails in front of the phalanx of the Liaodong army, and the chaotic flow of people was like a muddy river, and their heads were broken and bleeding on the solid embankment.

More displaced people began to slip away quietly, and the Qing army was very generous to those who fled, and even deliberately opened a hole in the encirclement and let them go.

"These are all rebels against the people, heinous thieves, why didn't the prince kill them all, but let them go? It must be known that if you don't make an example of a hundred, no one will be willing to obey the Qing Dynasty in Shaanxi in the future. Meng Qiaofang was a little dissatisfied, he rode a horse and stood beside Wu Sangui, surrounded by the soldiers of the Liaodong Army, looking at the battle situation in the distance and said.

Ha Ha Mu also stood in front of his head and echoed: "Lord Meng is reasonable, Emperor Taizong took advantage of the fact that the Han people have backbones on their heads, the more they are good to them, the more they will give birth to a lot of right and wrong, only by bullet pressure, can they live in peace and be obedient to the people, why don't you send a strong team to kill back and forth, and kill the thieves in the wilderness!" ”

These words brought Meng Qiaofang and Wu Sangui together and scolded them, and the two of them suddenly changed their faces together, but Ha Ha Mu didn't realize it, as if he didn't know that he had offended the two Han people around him with one sentence, and still looked around unscrupulously, pointing out with a big face where to send troops to encircle and suppress.

Wu Sangui's face was like frost, his Adam's apple moved up and down a few times, and it seemed that it took a lot of strength to hold back and not say some words, and he was silent for a while, and when his face returned to normal, he said slowly: "The two adults are reasonable, these people are all chaotic people and thieves, and they are really unforgivable, but this time and that time, now is not a good time to kill, the art of war: surround the three and leave a way to live." That's exactly what happened. ”

"Oh~~! I understand! Meng Qiaofang, a person who knew the soldiers, heard the sound of the strings and knew the elegance, and immediately clapped his hands and shouted: "The prince is worthy of the master, this is to let the rebels collapse on their own, one side is dead and the other side is life, of course they choose to live, the thieves are cornered, seeing that there is a chance to escape, of course the rats run away, in this way, the rebels will naturally collapse, the prince is wonderful!" ”

"Not only that, Lord Meng, Lord Ha, there is still a way to go." Wu Sangui laughed, he had excellent cultivation, and in such a short period of time, he seemed to have forgotten Ha Ha Mu's cowardly words, and said with a face as usual.

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. Meng Qiaofang and Ha Ha Mu were interested, and at this time, the battle situation was dominant, and the two were no longer anxious.

Wu Sangui raised a finger and said, "Just imagine, after this battle, although the rebels were defeated, those who supported the rebels openly and secretly have to find out, right?" Wang Yongqiang is just a general, how much financial strength can pull up 100,000 people, there must be a generous donation from the big family, the people who escaped today, all cut their braids, find out, and send them to the province's solid home to recognize people, whether they recognize it or not, this disaster silver can be a large amount of money. ”

The two who listened were stunned, and then they were overjoyed, celebrated each other, and gave a thumbs up to Wu Sangui and praised: "Lord Huizhi, I can't wait!" ”

The three of them looked at each other and laughed, like birds and beasts looking at each other, harmonious on the surface but each with their own scheming.

Far away, there was smoke and dust rising from the west, and in the position where the three people were standing, they could see a group of people approaching, and the distance was still far away, and it was impossible to see who was coming.

However, it only takes a thought to know that the west is in the direction of the Qinling Mountains, and the Liaodong military horses must have returned.

Wu Sangui was surprised in his heart, Li Benshen had only been away for less than a day, why did he come back, could it be that the Ming army was weak and vulnerable?

Wu Sangui's subordinates stepped forward to contact him, and then immediately beat his horse and galloped wildly, flying back in the direction of the Chinese army.
