Chapter 127: The Head of Fifty Taels of Silver

In October of the seventh year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng, who was trapped in the carriage gorge, adopted Gu Junen's strategy of deception and surrender, and successfully won Chen Qiyu's trust.

Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Huguang, advised him bitterly that Chen Qiyu was not credible, but Chen Qiyu scoffed, and he even thought that Lu Xiangsheng intended to seize the military merits.

The Tao is different, and in desperation, Lu Xiangsheng can only hold Yunyang and wait and see what happens.

After the 40,000 rogues represented by Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong escaped from the plank road on the south side, the first thing they did was to kill the 5,000 officers and soldiers who were escorted.

The approaching Ming army completely gave up their vigilance, they didn't expect the Liukou to be so fierce, the Ming commander-in-chief He Renlong and Zhang Tianli were defeated and retreated one after another, and Baoji, Linyou and other cities fell one after another.

If it weren't for the emergency when Lu Xiangsheng led the army to attack and thwarted Li Zicheng's troops, maybe the Liukou army would have broken through Chang'an City!

When the news came out, the world was in an uproar.

In the capital, Zhu Youzhen, the son of heaven, was furious: "Chen Qiyu is responsible for me, and I want to punish him for the nine clans!" ”

Wang Chengen kowtowed again and again, "The emperor is angry, Chen Qiyu can't be killed, the Ming Dynasty has been a monk for three hundred years, even if he has made others, the disaster will not be as good as his family."

Zhu Youzhen was extremely indignant, "What did Chen Qiyu, the dog thief, say in the report?" The thieves Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are all in the urn, and they can be broken day and night! It's good now, the thieves have fled, no one knows where they are going, my country, my people have to be conservative and ravaged, how can you make me not hate? ”

Wang Chengen drove away all the attendants and persuaded in a low voice: "The emperor is angry, and the slaves and maids dare to say a word, Chen Qiyu's crime is unforgivable in the battle of Carriage Gorge, but Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Huguang, won a small victory, at this critical moment, the emperor should be rewarded!" ”

At the mention of Lu Xiangsheng, Zhu Youzhen's face softened, "Lu Jiandou's governor Yunyang is quite effective, and I want to promote him to the right deputy capital Yushi, the governor of Huguang, and the squire of the military department, Wang Chengen, what do you think?" ”

Wang Chengen said with a smile: "The emperor is so loving, presumably Lu Jiandou must be grateful."

Zhu Youzhen intends to Xing Yanshan, "I do not hesitate to hold an official position, I only hope that the liukou will die early and the Jiannu will die early."

"The emperor is thrifty and loves the people, and the rogues in this world will be defeated sooner or later"

There are rogues making chaos inside, and there are slaves outside, Zhu Youzhen only feels extremely irritable, what is wrong with this Ming world?

"Whoever can exterminate the rogues and set foot on the Jiannu will be my minister!"

The red sunset reflected on Zhu Youzhen's body through the window lattice, illuminating his back extremely desolately.

Ulzhou is 500 miles away from the capital, and at this time, the battle report of the Carriage Gorge has not yet reached here, and the people in the city have a kind of happiness for the rest of their lives.

In any case, Ulju was held after all.

As a great hero of Ulzhou, Wang Teng had no intention of staying for a long time, he was worried about the safety of Dinghe Fort, and hurriedly left with his men and horses.

Wang Teng left with his front foot, and Bai Enyuan got the report with his back foot.

"What? Uda is still in the city? What is Wang Teng going to do? ”

"My lord, this Wang Teng shouldn't leave Wuda to Zhu Jixun, right?"

Bai Enyuan's face changed greatly, if this is the case, Zhu Jixun will definitely be added to the rank and knighthood, it will definitely be a bolt from the blue for him!

"Come on, General Binghong will say that Wang has vacated the city"

"No!"

Facing Wang Teng, the initiator, Bai Enyuan couldn't wait to cut it with a thousand knives!

A small nine-grade inspection dared to give the five-grade prefect eye medicine, isn't this looking for death?

Out of Ulzhou City, Wang Teng did not go straight to Dinghe Fort, but went around for dozens of miles.

The accompanying soldiers wondered, "My lord, Guangling is in the west, and Dinghe Fort is also in the west of the city, aren't we in the opposite direction?" ”

Wang Teng grinned, "Kill the Tartars, refuse the prefect, we have played enough prestige in Ulzhou, and now if we want to go home alive, we naturally have to use our brains, otherwise, once we encounter an ambush, we will explain."

"Ambush? Jiannu's soldiers and horses? ”

Wang Teng shook his head, "Who knows, let's just bypass them!" ”

Huang Degong was a little regretful, "My lord, maybe we missed a good show."

"Zhenglanqi will never swallow his anger after suffering such a big loss, let's not risk watching the show, it is important to go home honestly"

"What your lord said is very true, go home quickly!"

A group of six people, riding two horses, is extremely fast.

At the same time, fifty miles west of Ulzhou City, Hong Shiyuan squinted his eyes and asked boredly, "What, hasn't that thief left the city yet?" ”

"General, Tan Ma reported that Wang Teng had left the city, but they were heading east"

Hong Shiyuan's eyes widened, "What? To the east? What a treacherous thief! What about Uda? ”

"Wuda is still in the city, Wang Teng only brought five guards"

"Who led thirty horsemen to set up an ambush in Guangling? I saw Wang Teng's head, fifty taels of silver! ”

No matter where Wang Teng goes, his ultimate goal is Guangling County.

Hong Shiyuan felt that Wang Teng refuted his face, in order to make this breath, he was willing to take out fifty taels of silver as a reward, anyway, it was given by Bai Enyuan, borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, killing two birds with one stone.

Suddenly, a black-faced military academy volunteered to take the errand.

"Remember, don't make a noise after killing Wang Teng, return quickly, I will wait for you in Xuanfu"

"Order!"

After all, Wang Teng was an official of the imperial court, and Hong Shiyuan did not dare to use a large team of men and horses to chase and intercept him, so he could only call the elite of the squad to ambush him.

In everyone's opinion, thirty elites of the Hong Army were enough to complete the task, and there would be no accident in the ambush of Wang Teng.

However, just as Hong Shiyuan was about to leave with the cavalry under his command, a loud rumbling sound came.

Hong Shiyuan's face changed greatly, "What about the night?" Whose centaur is this? ”

It didn't take long for a blue cavalry to come into view.

"Jiannu!"

"Woo woo woo", the horn of urgent preparations sounded, and Hong Shiyuan hesitated.

Jiannu's soldiers and horses came from the east, eliminating the possibility of going to Ulju to ask for help.

"General, there are two thousand horsemen in Jiannu!"

A few days ago, a thousand tired divisions fought with the Hong army without a victory, and now that Jiannu has come to reinforcements, how dare Hong Shiyuan resist?

"To the west, avoid its edge!"

Hong Shiyuan's calculation was good, but unfortunately, his every move had already fallen into the calculation of the general of the Zhenglan Banner.

Under a huge banner, the first-class chief soldier Yanguli showed a bloodthirsty smile, "I have long heard that Hong Chengchou has trained a private army, so let's finish him up this time!" ”

"Master, Dugin, who is in the blue flag, asks to see"

"No, what's the good thing about losing the master's waste!"

"Master, let's see it, otherwise, it won't look good there."

"Hmph, the blue flag is not as good as a day, anyway, I want to see what tricks this Dugin will play! Losing the army and losing the general, nothing can be accomplished, and he has the face to come to see me! ”

Yanguli married Nurhachi's daughter and was Wong's strongest supporter.

This time to conquer the Ming Dynasty, Yanguli represented the Zhenghuang Banner in the battle.
