Chapter 70: Exemption

"Bastard, how did Lone tell you, and how did he teach you to do it?"

Li Zicheng is 17 late to the city of Beijing, as soon as he heard about Chaoyangmen, overnight with Liu Zongmin, Li Guo, Yuan Zongdi, Wu Ruyi and other generals, gathered all the cavalry in the army, and then rushed to Tianjin together, this delay, when he rushed to Tianjin, Luo Hu and Li Shuangxi had already fought with the Ming army several times, but Luo Hu's department was exhausted, depressed, barely fought twice, were mixed with the Ming army, and then later, although gradually hit Tianjin, and even approached the port for a time, but more than two days, It was enough for the Tianjin side to sail ships one by one, and according to the distant visual inspection of the spies of the intruding army, more than 1,000 sea ships of different sizes were taken away from Tianjin, and it is not clear who exactly who they are...... Of course, the emperor and the crown prince must have managed to escape.

A hard-working battle to dig out the heart, in addition to beating a Beijing division, Chongzhen, who was bound to win, miraculously walked away...... Li Zicheng's whip fell like rain, and kept hitting Li Shuangxi's bare back, and this righteous son also knew that the father in front of him was extremely angry, so he just gritted his teeth and endured it, and the people present saw that the leather whip in Li Zicheng's hand kept rising and falling, constantly hitting Li Shuangxi's back with blood marks.

"Okay, the emperor doesn't want to fight double happiness anymore, this time he is a fierce opponent, and he can't be completely blamed. Xiaohuzi is very cautious, and he has suffered a big loss! ”

Liu Zongmin's body grew up, and his bony wide face was also full of anger, his eyes were blazing at this time, and he was also glaring at Li Shuangxi, but at this time he had barely restrained his emotions, knowing that Li Zicheng whipped Shuangxi'er, in fact, he also gave himself and other generals an explanation, and then asked Zicheng to fight, and each other was not happy...... Although Liu Zongmin is the leader of the generals in Shaanxi, and sometimes he does not pay much attention to etiquette towards Li Zicheng, he is at least to maintain Li Zicheng's prestige in the army, and Liu Zongmin has always grasped this layer very well.

As soon as he spoke, all the generals present were relieved, Li Zicheng was silent, and only after two whips did he drop it, and after exhaling from his chest, he frowned again: "What now?" ”

Liu Zongmin said: "Look at what they said, Chongzhen and the prince must have run away from his mother a long time ago, and they can't catch up, I think, leave some soldiers to guard Tianjin, and then tell Liu Fangliang to hurry to the difficulty, no need to go to Beijing and our division, directly insert it into the Linqing area, and isolate the north and south Caoyun first!" ”

If Chongzhen is captured in Beijing, or commits suicide, then the army does not have to worry too much about the Ming army's northern expedition or western expedition in the south.

And now Chongzhen is going south, there are three towns in Linqing and Xuzhou, adding up to more than 100,000 people, this is a force that cannot be insulted, and the layout of Shandong and Henan must be changed.

"Alas!" Li Zicheng frowned and was silent, his heart was also very disturbed, he glanced at the rest of the people with a stern expression and majestic eyes, of course, as far as his eyes could see, he mainly looked at Song Xiance and Li Yan.

"The minister thinks," Song Xiance hurriedly stepped forward, and said respectfully: "What the Marquis of Ru said is very appropriate, now that the army of our dynasty has won the Beijing division, and after the emperor sacrifices to the heavens to succeed to the throne, the righteousness will be certain, even if Chongzhen goes to Nanjing, it is just a dying struggle, so there is no need to worry." ”

"What the military advisor said is very true."

Listening to Song Xiance's words, Li Zicheng felt a lot more comfortable in his heart, and he hoped that Li Yan could also say a few words of relief and praise, so that his damaged self-esteem and prestige could be somewhat consolidated, but Li Yan was silent and did not say a word, Li Zicheng was very dissatisfied in his heart, and his face gradually became difficult to see.

"Does he really look down on Lonely, have different intentions for Lonely, and have different ambitions?"

At this moment, a young general stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, the vanguard of our army has completely occupied the harbor, and there are only a dozen or so ships in the harbor that have not had time to leave. Please tell the emperor, how to deal with it? In addition, there were hundreds of captured Ming army soldiers, and there were two or three hundred gentry who tried to flee south, and the emperor was also asked to order them to be sent down. ”

Since he had the idea of fighting the world in his heart, Li Zicheng no longer connived at his subordinates to plunder or kill innocents indiscriminately, because his reputation was related and it was not good to spread.

In the early years, Li Zicheng's unit and the rest of the peasant army were the same, they were all burning, killing and looting, and they would cause harm wherever they went, and then they forced the young and strong to enlist in the army, first as slave soldiers, and after a long time together, they became official battalion troops...... Of course, it is still Shaanxi nationality, especially those in northern Shaanxi, who are easy to be promoted and taken care of.

In Henan gradually gained momentum, there were very few things to kill prisoners, and at this time Li Zicheng's heart was full of angry anger, he was very annoyed, and he was also very angry, this attack on the Ming Dynasty Jingshi war, not to capture Chongzhen failed to complete the work, the future trouble is not small!

"Pull to the beach and kill them all!"

"What?"

The person who played the ceremony was Li Zicheng's other righteous son Zhang Nai, and it was also the same as Li Shuangxi, who was brought up by Li Zicheng, listening to his father-in-law's words, he was startled.

"Didn't hear clearly?" Li Zicheng glanced at this righteous son with very angry eyes, and his hand was also tight, and it seemed that the leather whip wanted to hit him.

"Yes, Erchen heard it!"

Zhang Nai hurriedly bowed down and agreed, but said stubbornly: "Yesterday was a battle, and he also captured Gong Yonggu, the commander of the Ming Dynasty, and his father said that he would keep him for interrogation, recruit Ming officials, and more than a dozen Ming Dynasty officials, all of whom were civil officials of the fifth or sixth grades. ”

Gong Yonggu was supposed to ship early, but in the past two days, Luo Hu's department has also been constantly attacking, and someone needs to lead the break, he volunteered to ask for this errand, but he was careless, fell off the horse and was captured, at this time the main force had already boarded the ship and left, and the aid was too late, but it fell into the hands of Luo Hu and others, and as soon as Li Zicheng arrived, of course, he handed it over.

"Did he say he was going to surrender?"

"No, this person is very stubborn, and he keeps scolding, saying that he just wants to die quickly. The military advisor went to see him yesterday, but he didn't convince this person. ”

"What else is there to say?" Liu Zongmin hated these imperial relatives the most, and even more hated those who refused to surrender, he waved his hand coldly and said: "Kill together, let's kill fewer imperial relatives?" I don't care about a colt! ”

"Yes, I'll do it right away!"

At this time, Liu Zongmin's words were not much different from Li Zicheng's words, so Zhang Naifei agreed quickly and immediately rushed down.

Li Yanshi was thinking about the battle by the small river that Li Shuangxi reported, if the battle of Chaoyangmen was still a bit of a force to touch the force, the battle of the riverside, with the foot of the enemy, with less to win more, the fight was very beautiful, so in the tactical tactics, he was very attentive, so he didn't notice Li Zicheng's eyes, and didn't step forward to say a few words.

At this time, when I came back to my senses and heard Li Zicheng's disposition, I was also surprised and felt very uneasy.

The new dynasty and the new lord should not be so indiscriminately killed, Li Yan is a person who can say whatever he wants, and he has the intention of stepping forward to speak at the moment.

But as soon as he took a step, he heard someone next to him coughing slightly, and when he turned his head, it was Song Xiance who was desperately shaking his head and signaling, telling him not to make a sound.

He has always admired this fellow from Henan, and knows that the other party's heart is fast, and there must be a reason to stop it at this time. But after all, it's hundreds of lives...... But after such hesitation, Li Zicheng had already turned around, turned over on his horse, and said loudly: "Let's go to the port and have a look!" ”

As soon as he moved, everyone naturally got on the horse and followed, and at this moment, Song Xiance said to Li Yan in a reproachful tone: "Just now, the emperor wanted you to say a few nice words, explaining that the reason for this failure is not in the upper position, it is that we did not come up with a good idea, and as a result, you were silent." Now you want to come forward to intercede with the captive, I'm afraid you will be severely reprimanded on the spot! Lin Quan, sometimes you really don't know how to serve Tao Hui! ”

Li Yan was said to be a sign of the situation, and then thinking about the situation of suitable talents, it was indeed as Song Xiance said, it was his own mistake.

However, he just shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said to Song Xiance in a very low voice: "If I am the kind of person who can bend his will, how can I be here?" ”

After saying this, he felt a lot more comfortable in his heart, but there was still a strong worry between his eyebrows, he looked at Song Xiance, and said softly: "I heard Luo Hu say that it was not a general who led the troops, and later found out that it was the crown prince Zhu Cihong!" ”

Don't say much. The crown prince of the Ming Dynasty is so eloquent, I think the emperor is also very worried. It's just that he has been dominating the world for more than ten years, and even Chongzhen has run away, so in general, he is not too nervous, it's just that it is not beneficial for you to talk more. ”

"I know that." Li Yan smiled bitterly, and said to Song Xiance: "If one day you can ask me to lead the troops south, I would really like to fight with this crown prince." ”

Since he surrendered and broke into the camp, he has never had the opportunity to lead the troops alone, and what he said at this time is even more foolish. Song Xiance could only smile slightly bitterly, shook his head and sighed: "Lin Quan, I'm afraid you don't have this opportunity!" ”

………… While Li Zicheng and the others rushed to the port, a 400-material two-masted ship floating on the sea not far away, Zhu Cihong and others were also looking forward to Tianjin.

The whole camp did not expect that Zhu Cihong, with the respect of the crown prince, was actually the last boat to get on the boat, and he also ordered the boat not long before the main force of the camp arrived, and at this moment, under the push and lapping of the waves, the hull of the ship was not too far from the shore, and he was also bullying the army There are really no boats and sailors, so as long as you go to sea, you don't have to be afraid.

"Master, look at the shore, it seems to be a Huang Luo umbrella?"

After the army arrived at the port, many people on the ship ran to the side to see the excitement, after all, it was at sea, and the people's hearts were much more stable.

Looking at the thieves running around the port like blue ants, many Ming soldiers laughed.

Wang Yuan was covered in bandages, in the battle a few days ago, he was seriously injured, but now he is alive again, at this time he followed Ren Shang's guidance, and saw that there was a small Huangluo umbrella on a high ground in the port, and he shouted unconsciously: "It's Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng!" ”

Zhu Cihong also squinted at the shore and said with a smile: "It should be." "A legendary figure is right in front of him, and now the Ming Dynasty is up and down, and he is really afraid and jealous of this talent...... But so what? This opponent, only Zhu Cihong knows deeply, he is actually not an opponent...... "The crown prince of the Ming Dynasty greets the marshals of Shaanxi......" Zhu Cihong suddenly smiled and shouted: "Jingshi borrowed and waited for a temporary stay, it is better to be careful, you don't have to send it far!" ”

When everyone heard this, they naturally laughed, first a few people, then dozens, hundreds of people, all shouted at the shore of the port not far away!

The voice floated straight along the sea breeze, and Li Zicheng, who was riding a jujube red horse, hanging "Sailongquan" on his waist, and wearing a blue arrow suit, although the sea breeze was warm and pleasant, but at this moment, he was already as pale as iron!
