Chapter 153: Blossoming in the middle

Before the ghost fire walked on the official road, he ran into Zhu Qing and his party at the fork in the road.

"Who?" Ghostfire was startled.

"Ghost fire?" Although it was dark, Zhu Qing was still familiar with the sound of the ghost fire.

Ghost Fire heard that the other party recognized him, and hurriedly threw a torch, Zhu Qing drew his knife to block, and knocked the torch off.

"Qinglong?!" The ghost fire still recognized Zhu Qing by the firelight.

"Why did you get back?" Zhu Qing walked over

Ghostfire didn't answer, and his head was no longer as proud as before, because he had lost the battle.

"Say it! What happened to Kaifeng City, why did you run back by yourself? What about King Fu? Zhu Qing said, pulling out a machete and placing a knife on the neck of the ghost fire. This is the first time Zhu Qing has pointed a knife at his boss, although he has never recognized this boss!

Ghost Fire can take the position of the head of Jinyiwei, in addition to Wang Chengen's support, he still has some ability, but at this moment he has no intention of resisting Zhu Qing.

"Kaifeng is lost, and King Fu ...... He was ...... by Li Zicheng, "Ghost Fire couldn't bear to say it."

"What the hell is going on?!" Zhu Qing pressed the handle of the knife.

"Boiled ......" the ghost fire was a little silent. Although the ghost fire knows how to use all kinds of means to deal with the loser, but he can't even think of the trick of eating people, and Li Zicheng has already done it, the voice of "bring the pot and serve the dishes" lingered in his ears for a long time, and he always had in his mind The tragic scene of King Fu being boiled in a cauldron of boiling water and then being eaten by Zhang Xianzhong with a bloody basin in his mouth became his nightmare along the way, so that the once arrogant Lord Ghost Fire suddenly became a coward.

"What did you say!" After Zhu Qing and the others listened to the words of the ghost fire, they were extremely surprised, what an incredible thing this is, what an inhumane thing! Zhu Qing did not believe that this was the work of Li Zicheng, who was known as the "righteous army". He put away his machete, grabbed the ghost fire, and asked.

Ghost Huo was paralyzed, and said weakly, "It's true, I heard King Fu scolding the thieves outside the city, Li Zicheng then called his subordinates to the pot, Zhang Xianzhong's unbridled laughter...... It's horrible! Ghost Fire said, trembling a little.

"Humph! Rubbish! Jinyiwei's face has been thrown into you! Three thousand people can't bring out a blessed king! Do you still have the face to go back to the capital?! Zhu Qing hated and scolded, he never thought that he would scold his boss like this one day, in fact, it was not so much scolding the ghost fire, but Zhu Qing's disappointment in the Praetorian Guard. Since he led a thousand elite soldiers out of Shanhaiguan, the quality of the Praetorian Guard has been declining day by day, if it weren't for Liu Qingfeng and the three saints of the capital working hard in the palace, I'm afraid Chongzhen would have died many times!

"Let's go!" Zhu Qing pushed the ghost fire away and said to the soldiers behind him.

"Are you still going to die?" Watching Zhu Qing move forward, Ghost Fire gave a word of advice.

Zhu Qing turned his head slowly, and said to the ghost fire word by word, "It's better to die than to survive sometimes!" Of course, this is not what Zhu Qing pursues, a person doesn't even have the courage to live, so what can he talk about nobility? He said this just because he was disappointed in the ghostfire.

Ghost Fire didn't say anything, he watched Zhu Qing lead eight hundred soldiers to Kaifeng, which had fallen, and looked at the three thousand people around him who were embarrassed and sloppy, he closed his eyes and sighed deeply, "Go." As he spoke, he led the troops back to the capital from the official road.

When Zhu Qing led 800 soldiers to the outside of the back gate of Kaifeng City, the sky was not yet dawn, and the winter made the days short and the nights long. Although Zhu Qing was full of righteous indignation, he did not lose his mind, he would not really be sent to the door to die like this.

Eight hundred soldiers lurked outside Kaifeng City, and Zhu Qing summoned the leaders of the Tianzi to gather.

"We have three tasks, one is to find out the life and death of King Fu, and the other is that some people will make a detour to open the front gate of the city, and one person will stay in the rear, subject to the signal, and attack the city at the same time. Zhu Qingdao.

"And the third?" Lin Bai asked.

"The third is that Brother Shi Qian and I sneaked into the city, on the one hand, to inquire about the news of King Fu, and on the other hand, to check whether there are any remnants of the Ming army in the city and bring them out."

"Will this work? We only have 800 people. Suzaku asked.

"It's not dawn yet, the weather is cold, it's the most slack moment, and besides, the army has just won, and I wouldn't have thought that we would raid by surprise. Brother Shi Qian and me, you don't have to worry, we know what to do. Zhu Qing analyzed.

"You're talking about blossoms on trees?" Leng Thorn asked.

"Exactly." Zhu Qing nodded, flowering on the tree is one of the thirty-six strategies, borrowing others and other things to create momentum, and defeating the strong with the weak.

The crowd nodded.

"The people at the front door must be careful, and once the enemy finds it, immediately disperse and sneak back to the rear."

"Understood! I'll go to the front door. "The white tiger automatically asked.

"I'll go with Lord White Tiger." Lin Bai said.

"Okay." Zhu Qing nodded and turned to Ning'er, "Can you fight?" ”

Ning Er nodded, although she rarely went into battle to kill the enemy since she followed Zhu Qing, the blood of the soldiers in her body had been flowing. And this time she didn't have to be torn between them.

"Okay, Suzaku and Ning'er, as well as Uncle Yuan, you are in charge of the rear, once there is a commotion in the front, the rear is full of firepower, Li Zicheng has just entered the city, and there should not be much force to penetrate the back door. Once they get to the back door, there is no numerical advantage for them in street fighting. It was almost dawn, and if it could not be attacked within an hour, all of them would retreat to the rear. Let's go. Zhu Qing finally ordered.

Several teams groped in the darkness and split up. It is not easy for 800 people to drive away more than 100,000 people, and there is almost no certainty of victory in this battle, but at least in this way, Zhu Qing can have a chance to find out the news of King Fu.

Zhu Qing and Sai Shiqian sneaked into the city gate, Sai Shiqian is known as a flea, Zhu Qing also has parkour skills, plus the equipment of Jinyiwei, it is not a problem to enter over the wall.

But it takes a lot of effort to infiltrate the inner city, although the defenders at the back gate are much smaller than the front gate, but far more than the hundreds of brocade clothes outside the city.

"Let's go! Come on! Be honest with me! "When Zhu Qing and Sai Shiqian were observing the situation in the city, a group of intruders escorted a group of Ming troops under the city gate, and it seemed that they were going to be escorted to the front gate for detention. Because there are the most intruders there, and it is also the safest.

Zhu Qing looked at it, and there were no less than 100 people. Tied with ropes, they marched in a row.

"There are no more than a dozen guards, let's go" Zhu Qing moved the road during the game, and he decided to rescue the Ming army at the entrance of the alley.

Zhu Qing and Sai Shiqian moved quickly on the city wall, rushing to the alley before the escort team passed through the alley and set up an ambush.

Just as the escort team entered the alley, the leading soldier suddenly asked, "Who is it?" Then the soldier fell. Zhu Qing was almost killing with his eyes.

"There are assassins!" Another soldier fell. At this time, the guards wanted to rush up, but Sai Shiqian came out from behind the team.

"There's it too!" As soon as one of the soldiers turned around and spoke, he immediately fell, and Sai Shiqian's kung fu grew rapidly in the war.

The guards were in the light, Zhu Qing and Sai Shiqian were in the dark, and the guards were caught off guard and were quickly cleared by Zhu Qing and Sai Shiqian.

"Who are you?" A Ming soldier at the head asked.

"Green Dragon!" Zhu Qing said, pulled down the mask, and cut the rope with a knife.

"You're the Green Dragon?!" The Ming soldiers led by him were overjoyed, "We are the guards of King Fu's mansion." My name is Liangshan. ”

"Brother Liangshan, is something wrong with King Fu?" Zhu Qing asked, and the tied Ming soldiers were untied one by one.

King Fu was captured, scolded the thief, Li Zicheng was unhappy, so he used boiling to scare King Fu, King Fu was unyielding, Zhang Xianzhong was angry and wanted to kill him. Li Zicheng stopped him, and King Fu was imprisoned in the palace. Liangshan said.

"So King Fu is not dead?" Zhu Qing asked.

"Nope. However, King Liang had already made up his mind to let us surrender and save our lives, so we were tied up. "Liangshan Road.

"Brother, do you want to recapture Kaifeng?" Zhu Qing said very seriously.

"What about intentionality? Li Zicheng's 100,000-strong army has entered the city, and we have so many people left, maybe there are still some stragglers in other alleys, but what kind of waves can be made? Although Liangshan seems to be a talent, it is clear that this defeat has destroyed his will.

"My men have already laid an ambush outside the city, just waiting for my signal, they will attack the city immediately!" Zhu Qing said, signaling the time of the game to move, and the time of the game took out the signal flare.

"Is that true? I have heard that the 10,000 soldiers and horses of Qinglong have defeated the 60,000 army of Dolgon, and if you take the city, I will be the first to join you. Liangshan said excitedly.

"I'm joining too!"

"I'll join in!"

"Lao Tzu joins in!"

……

Hundreds of guards responded one after another, and Zhu Qing received another batch of soldiers.

"Good! Inform them and start the siege! Zhu Qing moved during the game.

Sai Shiqian nodded, and sent a dash of flares into the air.

"Shhhhh A loud bang, a spark, kicked off the siege.

"Big brother signaled. Besiege! The white tiger shouted at the front door.

"Where's the sound?!" Li Zicheng exclaimed.

"It looks like it's in the city!" Huzi Road.

"Siege!" Suzaku drew his sword and waved, and Yuan Bo's firearms were fired.

"Boom, boom!"

"King Chuang, it's the back door!" Huzi said.

"Take someone to see it!" Li Zicheng ordered.

"Oh no. There are enemy soldiers at the front door! "A guard came to report.

"How many soldiers?"

"I don't know. I saw dust and sand in the sky, constant shouts, and firearms! ”

"How so! Give it all to Lao Tzu to get up and fight! Li Zicheng was confused by this sudden battle, attacking back and forth, and flowering in the middle, which was completely out of touch for the 100,000 army that had just woken up from a dream.

"Brother Shi Qian, you lead this hundred guards to the back door to answer! Brother Liangshan, you come with me and me to save the blessed king! "Zhu Qing saw that the army began to riot, and decided to take advantage of the chaos to rob!
