It's another hearty and surprising victory!

In this battle, the militia led by Zhu Youzhen used the goods as bait to give the bandits in Shimenling a wonderful "anti-ambush". As a result, more than half of the more than 300 bandits were directly killed, and the rest did not run far, and they were all shot and killed by birds.

On the side of the militia, apart from the loss of 15 cars, 15 donkeys, and dozens of boxes of gunpowder, no one was killed! The only one who was injured was still due to nervousness, and * made a mistake in the bird's gun, and as a result, the bird's gun blew up and suffered some minor injuries.

With such brilliant results, Zhu Youzhen was of course very happy. But what made him even happier was that he had gained another great general: Li Laiheng!

To say that this Li Laiheng is very famous in history. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, peasant uprisings were surging, the most striking of which was, of course, Li Zicheng's Dashun Army, and Li Laiheng was a rising star in the Dashun Army.

After Li Zicheng's defeat, his generals were either killed or surrendered. However, Li Laiheng continued to erect the banner of Chuang Wang, led his troops into Sichuan, formed the "Thirteen Houses of Kuidong", and insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty. He used Maolu Mountain as a base to frequently harass the Qing army entering Sichuan, and twice besieged Chongqing with Li Dingguo.

At that time, the Qing army had basically swept the world, so it gathered heavy troops many times to encircle and suppress Li Laiheng's troops. In the case of the disparity between the enemy and us, Li Laiheng can often win more with less, and has also set a brilliant record of setting up ambushes with thousands of people and attacking and killing more than 10,000 Qing troops, and has the reputation of "Little Chuang King".

It's a pity that the general trend of Nanming has gone, whether it is Li Dingguo or Li Laiheng, they are all difficult to support alone. The thirteen families of Kuidong were finally exterminated, and Li Laiheng also committed suicide with his family, achieving a tragic war song.

However, according to the original rhythm of history, this Li Laiheng should be Li Zicheng's person, and his age should be much younger. It seems that Comrade Zhu Youzhen's crossing has indeed caused a lot of disturbance to time and space, and even made Li Laiheng born more than ten years earlier.

Of course, Zhu Youzhen also doubted that this young man would just share the same name as Li Laiheng. But after the battle just now, Zhu Youzhen was already convinced that he must be the real Li Laiheng. Otherwise, how could he have the extraordinary courage to dare to explore the tiger's den alone and lure the bandits into the bait? And it is this that is the key to the success of the ambush war!

After the battle was over, Li Laiheng carried the head of the pangolin and came to see Zhu Youzhen in high spirits. Zhu Youzhen was even more overjoyed when he saw that he had beheaded the bandit leader again, patted Li Laiheng's shoulder and smiled: "Do you want to join our militia?" As long as you join the militia group, you will be a third-class merit for killing the bandit leader, and you will immediately get a reward of thirty taels of silver! ”

Li Laiheng clapped his hands and laughed: "I just want to follow you!" Silver is not silver, it doesn't matter, it's really pleasant to kill all the evil people in the world! ”

Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed and proud. He asked Li Laiheng to follow Li Dingguo first, and when he was more mature, he could lead the army alone.

Immediately, everyone immediately cleaned up the battlefield and implemented the next plan of action: attack Qianzhai!

… Because the battlefield was deliberately chosen to be more than ten miles away from the front village of Shimenling, and it was late at night, so don't look at the big movement, the bandits who stayed in the front village were unaware.

Usually there is a village supervisor, these people are uncomfortable, and they have to cheer up and pretend; At this time, the pangolin led the crowd down the mountain, and these bandits were just like the office staff after the leader went on a business trip in his previous life, all of them herded the sheep and went back to the house early to sleep.

The bandits who were only on duty at the gate of the village did not dare to doze off because they had to prepare to open the door for the pangolin, but they were also very lax. At this time, several people got together, drinking low-quality soju while happily rolling dice and gambling money.

When he was in high spirits, he suddenly heard a commotion on the mountain road, and someone shouted from afar: "Open the door, we are back!" ”

"So fast?" All the bandits were a little surprised, and secretly thought that the owner of the village had not been so sharp in the past. But the people had already returned, and they did not dare not open the door, so they had to throw the dice and come to the gate of the village together.

Looking down, sure enough, a large group of people came up with torches, and they were also carrying a lot of boxes, which seemed to have gained a lot. The first one was the new recruit Li Laiheng, who shouted from afar: "Come out and pick up the goods!" We can't move! ”

These bandits did not suspect fraud, and hurriedly pushed open the gate of the wall. As the people got closer and closer, these guys didn't see the pangolin for a long time, and couldn't help but ask Li Laiheng, who had already walked in front of him, in surprise: "Where is the owner of the village?" ”

"Blind, even the owner of the village can't see it!" Li Laiheng casually pointed down with his hand, "Don't you see that?" ”

A few people were busy craned their necks to watch, but they didn't notice at all: the few "bandits" next to Li Laiheng were actually Xie Sheng and other special service members!

At this time, Xie Sheng saw that he could not miss the opportunity, so he gave Li Laiheng a look. Several people turned to the back of the bandit together, and suddenly showed a bright steel knife, covered their mouths with their left hand, and slashed their necks with their right hands. These unlucky bandits didn't understand what was going on, but they felt a cold throat, so they rushed to the Netherworld with their companions to report to their village owner.

At this time, the door of the village was wide open, but the people inside were still asleep, not knowing that the disaster star had touched it. The two regiments Lian Xie Yong and Li Dingguo took the lead, each leading a hundred strong regimental warriors to quietly surround the bandits' bedrooms, and suddenly shouted in unison, smashed through the door, and put Leng Sensen's steel knife against the bandits' necks.

These bandits were originally dreaming of spring, but after being awakened, they were not possessed, and some of them were directly frightened and pulled under the covers, making the house smelly.

This time, because of the superiority of troops, Zhu Youzhen did not let the militia go on a killing spree, and basically took the Qianzhai without blood. He first ordered all these bandits to be imprisoned, and then sent a regiment to block all roads, so that no news could be leaked and the bandits in Zhongzhai and Houzhai should be alarmed.

Until now, the sky was just numb. Zhu Youzhen was not tired, and immediately convened a meeting of big and small leaders to study the next course of action.

Because he tasted the sweetness of playing the trick of luring the enemy, Li Laiheng volunteered again, wanting to continue to deceive in Zhongzhai and fool the people in Zhongzhai down the mountain.

Li Dingguo smiled and said, "Brother Laiheng, that's not good." ”

"Why not?" Li Laiheng said unconvinced, "Isn't it all once?" ”

"Think about it, since the bandits are divided into three villages, the front, the middle and the back, no matter what there is any movement, it must be the bandits in the front village who know first." Li Dingguo said half-jokingly, "And if you go to Zhongzhai again and say that there is a caravan passing by, it will be strange if the bandits in Zhongzhai are not suspicious!" They'll most likely cut your little brain open and see if it's the truth! ”

Everyone burst into laughter, and Li Laiheng touched his head embarrassedly and smiled: "I don't have any good goods in my head, so don't cut it!" ”

"According to the opinion of Dingguo, what should I do?" Zhu Youzhen also asked with a smile.

"Right now, our side has won two battles in a row, and morale is high, while the bandits are still in the dark and unaware." Li Dingguo said resolutely, "Dingguo thinks that we should strike while the iron is hot and attack Zhongzhai!" ”
