"What? He's dead? Liu Fan took the case and said categorically, "This is impossible, I worked hard, and I did not hesitate to let the soldiers fight hard for more than ten days without killing Li Zicheng and the other three, but now you tell me that they are dead?" Are you sure it's not a joke? ”

Lu Xiangsheng smiled bitterly and said, "Jimin, I don't believe that Li Zicheng, these cunning bandit leaders died like this, but Governor Chen did say so, what can we do?" You don't know Governor Chen's thoughts, it's not a day since he wants to appease these rogues, even if he knows it's fake, he won't expose them! ”

What Lu Xiangsheng said Liu Fan didn't know? But what can I do if I know it, Chongzhen didn't take his own opinion, and insisted on letting go of these rogues, Liu Fan was unwilling and didn't dare to openly resist Chongzhen's will. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info more than ten days of hard work finally came to naught, and things are developing step by step in the direction that they least want to see. Liu Fan fell on the chair in a daze, hugged his head in pain, and a sense of powerlessness surged in his heart!

Seeing Liu Fan's painful appearance, Lu Xiangsheng felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and couldn't help but comfort, "Jimin, things haven't reached the worst step yet, we still have a chance." As long as we find a way to find out Li Zicheng and the other three, won't we? ”

Liu Fan smiled bitterly, "Looking for it?" How to find it? We don't know them, and we don't even know what they look like. ”

Lu Xiangsheng frowned and said, "Didn't you catch a messenger?" Has the messenger ever seen the faces of the three men? ”

Liu Fan shook his head and said, "That messenger is a small person, he has not seen the appearance of Li Zicheng and others at all, and even if he knows some conditions, I am afraid it will not be of much use." Since Li Zicheng dared to cheat to death, it means that they have long been fully prepared, alas! It looks like they're going to run away this time! ”

Lu Xiangsheng was surprised: "No, didn't Jimin fight with Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng?" Haven't you seen them? ”

Liu Fan shook his head, "No, it was raining heavily in the sky when we fought, and Li Zicheng was far away from me, so I didn't see it clearly." As for the battle with Gao Yingxiang, it happened at night, and I didn't even meet Gao Yingxiang, how would I know what he looked like? ”

Lu Xiangsheng smiled: "Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean that your soldiers haven't seen it either!" How can you not know the face of the enemy in a frontal battle? ”

Liu Fan's eyes lit up, and he said loudly, "That's right!" The soldiers must have seen Li Zicheng, as long as they are allowed to identify Li Zicheng on the day of surrender, they will definitely be able to find out Li Zicheng! Lu Gong, I still have to ask you to help explain this matter to Chen Qiyu, it is best to let him agree to our method! ”

Lu Xiangsheng nodded and said, "Your Majesty has made an order, Governor Chen will definitely not refuse our kindness!" Rest assured! ”

At the beginning of August of the seventh year of Chongzhen, after many consultations between the Liukou and the official army, the Liukou finally agreed to surrender to the imperial court. After Chen Qiyu surrendered, he began to reorganize the rebel army, organizing the 40,000 rebel troops into a team for every 10,000 people, and each team sent a pacification officer to escort them back to the field. And from the money that the rogues bribed themselves, he took out a part of it and distributed it to the ordinary soldiers who had nothing to do as travel expenses and settle down.

On the fifth day of the eighth month, the Liukou finally walked out of the gorge of the carriage that had been trapped for a month and formally surrendered to the official army. When the ragged, yellow-skinned rogues stepped out of the canyon, what was waiting was the army of the captives. After the brutal blows of the Breakers, the Rogues have developed a deep fear of the Breakers. At first glance, when they saw the soldiers of the Broken Army standing on both sides with weapons in hand, these rogues thought that the officers and soldiers were going back on their word and wanted to do something to them.

Just when the Liukou was clamoring to fight to the death with the Broken Army, Chen Qiyu appeared in front of the Liukou in time with someone and explained with a smile. Seeing that the officials and soldiers really didn't seem to move, Liukou's heart finally relaxed. Perhaps forced by the strong deterrent power of the Broken Army, the Liukou did not make any small moves next, but honestly laid down his weapons, obeyed the arrangements of the officials and soldiers, and walked to the camp that had been prepared for them!

In the two miles from the mouth of the valley to the camp, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Broken Prisoners stood in two rows, watching the rogues walking in front of them, trying to find out the suspicious people. After Chen Qiyu's approval, Liu Fan had already secretly told the soldiers about the general appearance of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and repeatedly warned them to see everyone who passed in front of them. Under Liu Fan's deliberate arrangement, the human wall formed by the Broken Captives Army left only a passage for the three of them to walk in parallel. At the request of the officials and soldiers, the Liukou had to follow the orders of the officials and soldiers, and slowly walked forward under the gaze of these evil stars. Because of the fear and fear in their hearts, each of the rogues was cautious and did not dare to make a sound.

"Stop!" Suddenly, the calm situation was broken with a loud shout, and I saw a broken army officer step forward and grab a burly rogue, and asked loudly, "Where are your eyebrows?" Why did you shave your eyebrows? ”

The man who was suddenly attacked was very frightened, and fell to his knees on the ground with a "poof", trembling, "The military master spares his life, the military master spares his life!" The villain's eyebrows were accidentally burned a lot in the last battle, and the villain had to shave his eyebrows! ”

The team officer stared at the person in front of him and said in a deep voice, "You're lying!" Your eyebrows are clearly freshly shaved, I think you are Zhang Xianzhong! Hehe, we overseers have told me that Zhang Xianzhong's inverted eight-figure eyebrows are very distinctive, so we must pay attention to them. Lao Tzu has waited so long and hasn't seen an inverted eight-figure eyebrow, only you, the one with no eyebrows, hum, do you think you can escape from my eyes by shaving your eyebrows? Take! ”

As soon as the officer finished speaking, two soldiers came up and dragged the man away. The team officer continued to instruct, "Everyone pay attention, Zhang Xianzhong is very cunning, this person may be a suspicious soldier he pretended." If you see someone without eyebrows, don't hesitate to catch him at once, you know? ”

"Yes, Captain!" Several people around him responded in unison, looking at the Liukou with blazing eyes.

I don't know if it's because the rogues are too cunning, or if the soldiers of the Broken Army are too stupid. After several hours of tossing, although the Broken Army caught a few suspected people, it was found that it was not Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong themselves.

Although Liu Fan was a little unwilling about this result, he did not feel too surprised and angry. In this era when there are no photographs, it is too difficult to find two people from forty or fifty thousand people with the naked eye of just a few people. Moreover, Liu Fan knew that Li Zicheng and the others had already prepared, and he did this just to make a final effort with a fluke in his heart! (To be continued.) )
