readx; The one who rushed to the rescue of Zhangde Mansion was the general Hei Yougong under the command of Li Laiheng, who led 1,500 fresh troops to arrive in time and immediately reversed the situation on the battlefield. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info top fiction said that Gou was obviously in a position with him, his morale was greatly boosted, and he was about to launch a counter-charge against the rebels, but the rebels saw that the situation was not good, and turned around and turned southeast.

It was obvious that he had fought fiercely with this rebel army all night, and at this time, he was willing to give up, and immediately rode his horse behind to chase wildly. After chasing seven or eight miles, it seemed that he was about to catch up, but a river channel with a width of more than ten zhang and a depth of about two zhang appeared in front of him. There was a wooden bridge over the river, and the rebels were scrambling to whizz across it.

But the bridge deck was too narrow, how could 2,000 cavalry cross it at once? Probably more than a hundred horsemen have passed, and the pursuers who are obviously meritorious to the black have been killed. At this time, the rebels had no intention of fighting, and some people abandoned their horses and jumped down the river in order to escape quickly. Most of the rest were still desperately squeezing on the bridge, and some of them were in a hurry to think that their accomplices were in the way, so they became angry.

At this moment, I heard a "click" sound on the other side of the river, and then the wooden bridge shook three times, shook twice, and collapsed. It turned out that the cavalry who fled first actually cut off the bridgehead in order to prevent the pursuers from coming. In this way, although the pursuers could not get through, most of the rebels were also left on this side of the river.

At this time, the rain of arrows in the sky of the official army had already crushed their heads, and these rebels who were ruthlessly abandoned could be said to have no way to enter the heavens and the earth, how could they still have the heart to work hard. Except for some who were shot dead on the spot, most of them fled along the riverbank, while the rest jumped into the river.

Once one of the two belligerents loses their fighting spirit, the rest of the battle is a beating of the water dogs. Don't look at the strength of the official army and the rebels, but at this time, no rebels dare to turn back and resist, which is equivalent to being beaten and not fighting back, and the result can be imagined. After about half an hour, except for a few rebels who climbed across the river to escape, more than 1,000 rebels were killed, and the rest were really helpless, so they had to dismount and surrender.

At this time, it was almost noon, and after a brief count of the number of rebels captured by the Ming Ming and Hei Yougong, more than 600 rebels were captured, and the casualties on his side were negligible. Because more than 50 of his subordinates were killed in the defense of the city in Zhangde Mansion, he obviously hated the leader of this rebel army, and he had to cross the river to continue to chase him. Hei Yougong had no choice but to persuade: "Forget it, you must have run away, and you can't catch up." Besides, your injuries are not light, and this place is not far from the imperial camp, and the Holy Lord is still waiting for you to report on the battle situation, so let's take these prisoners back to the camp first. ”

It was obvious that he had no choice but to lead the crowd to the southwest with hatred, and soon arrived at the imperial camp under the north embankment of the Yellow River. At this time, Li Laiheng was already waiting at the gate of the camp, and when he saw that he was obviously covered in blood, he urgently ordered a military doctor to bandage him. It was obvious that he was completely supported by a spiritual force along the way, and when he saw the main general Li Laiheng, he was relieved and aggrieved, and he couldn't hold on anymore, and he fainted with a roll of his eyes.

When he woke up again, he found himself lying on a marching couch, his uniform had been taken off, his wound was bandaged with clean gauze, and he was no longer bleeding. Looking at the bedside again, a group of people were waiting anxiously around him, and when they saw him open their eyes, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Gou obviously recognized the main general Li Laiheng first. He usually has a lively personality, loves to joke the most, and is very close to Li Laiheng and Jin Tongwu, two living treasures. However, at this time, he couldn't laugh anymore, his nose was sour, and he said with a crying voice: "General, more than fifty brothers... I..."

Li Laiheng was also in a heavy mood, but he had to squeeze out a smile to cheer him on: "You fought well in this battle, why are you crying?" And don't you care about calling me, haven't you seen the Holy come to visit you? ”

It was obvious that Emperor Zhu Youzhen, who was dressed in military uniform, was also sitting on the edge of the bed and looking at him with a smile, struggling to get up and salute. Zhu Youzhen hurriedly held him down and said, "You are seriously injured, the wound has just been stitched, don't move." How do you feel now? Have you recovered a bit? ”

Gou obviously hurriedly said: "With Lao Sheng's concern, the last general will be fine, and he can go into battle to kill the enemy now!" ”

"There's no need to go into battle to kill the enemy, you just made a great contribution, why don't you let others have a chance to make a meritorious contribution?" Zhu Youzhen made a good-natured joke, and everyone around laughed. It was obvious that Lu Xiangsheng, the title of the military secretary of the leading army, the prime minister of the five provinces and four prefectures, the general of Xiaocai, the chief officer of the 3,000 battalion, Hao Yongzhong, and the generals such as Hei Yougong, Li Shoujun, and Li Shouyi all came to visit him, and the tears that had just stopped couldn't help but drip again.

At this time, Li Laiheng said: "I see that it is okay for you to talk for a while, the Holy Monk Shangshu has something to ask you, and we will come to visit tomorrow." In the next battle, we fought for you, so you can recuperate from your injuries in peace. ”

So everyone got up and said goodbye, and only three people were left in the tent: Zhu Youzhen, Lu Xiangsheng and Wu Mingming. Zhu Youzhen obviously reported in detail to Zhu Youzhen about the battle of Zhangde Mansion, Zhu Youzhen frowned tightly when he heard this, and only after a while did he say to himself: "It seems that I am a little underestimated by the enemy." What a powerful Hong Chengchou! ”

Gou was obviously a little unconvinced: "Holy Lord, we still won this battle!" ”

"You fought a good battle, Your Majesty is talking about the overall situation. Do you know who you fought against last night? Lu Xiang ascended.

Gou shook his head obviously and said, "I don't know, it's a guy with a scorched yellow face and long hair." ”

"His name is Li Chengdong," Zhu Youjian said with a sinking face, "because that face looks like a hezi, so he is nicknamed 'Li Hezi'." He and Gao Jie were both subordinates of the 'general' Li Zicheng, Gao Jie and Li Zicheng turned their faces to Hong Chengchou, and Li Chengdong also followed him. Before Hong Chengchou rebelled, Li Chengdong was already the deputy chief military officer of Zheng Erpin. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Youzhen frowned painfully.

Lu Xiangsheng also said with a solemn face: "Hong Chengchou confronted our army across the river with the main force, and yesterday he sent three small groups of cavalry to secretly cross the river from both flanks while the two sides were bombarding each other across the river on the frontal battlefield, and they were intercepted and killed by Hao Yongzhong and Li Laiheng. But the above arrangements are all tricks, and his real killer move is Li Chengdong's strange army. According to the captive's confession, three days ago, Li Chengdong led 3,000 rebel cavalry to secretly cross the river and ambush in a small village 80 miles east of Zhangde Mansion. ”

"It's... How is this possible? "The last general heard from General Pingnan that from Zhangde Mansion to the north bank of the Yellow River, the scouts have repeatedly reconnoitred, except for the rebels who were beaten away by the Guanning Iron Cavalry, they didn't find any other rebels?" ”

"This is exactly what Li Chengdong is ruthless about." Lu Xiangsheng sighed, "He killed all the passers-by he met along the way, took away the corpses, and the small village where he was stationed killed more than 300 people in the whole village, even the newborn baby!" ”
