Chapter 283: The Fisherman Profits
Sun Kewang's treachery, at this moment is the most vivid, just when he sent the sergeant to contact Li Zicheng, he gave the order again, the sergeant marched at the fastest speed, without the slightest delay, of course, such a rapid march means that it is to surpass Li Zicheng's team and arrive in Wuning Town in advance, since he is going to talk with Li Zicheng in Wuning Town for a short time, then he must take the lead and make a good deployment in Wuning Town, it is best not to have a direct conflict with Li Zicheng, When Li Dingguo, who was behind, arrived with an army of 5,000 troops, Li Zicheng had no way to escape.
While temporarily halting the march, the march was speeding up.
In less than half an hour, Sun Kewang surpassed Li Zicheng and headed towards Wuning Town.
When the two armies met, the scene was a little weird, Sun Kewang didn't even look at Li Zicheng, he just lowered his head and rushed forward, Li Zicheng had no expression on his face, watching the army led by Sun Kewang surpass him, and he even saw Gu Junen who was surrounded by Sun Kewang.
For Li Zicheng, Sun Kewang is a junior, and it is not worth paying attention to, but now the situation is different, Sun Kewang's actions have ignited the anger in Li Zicheng's heart, he must give this junior a heavy lesson, and if possible, it is okay to kill this Sun Kewang.
Li Zicheng, who has experienced a hundred battles, of course knows Sun Kewang's scheme, but this is less than ten miles away from Wuning Town, and the sergeants under his command do not have to pursue closely behind, and the time difference between before and after is not much, even if Sun Kewang arrives in Wuning Town first, it is impossible to make any deployments, anyway, it is inevitable that the two armies will fight, so he will simply make preparations.
After Li Zicheng's order was given. All the sergeants were ready to fight, and they knew very well that when they arrived in Wuning Town, it was the time when the fighting began.
There is a good saying that being smart is mistaken by being smart. Sun Kewang thought that he was very smart, and thought that everything was arranged very well, but it was a pity that his cleverness this time completely buried himself.
Wang Yuncheng, who led the first and second battalions of the cavalry of the Zheng family's army, had been waiting in Wuning Town for a long time, and many scouts were sent out. It was detected that there were two rogues coming towards Wuning Town, one in front of the other, not very far apart, and the number of people was close to 10,000, which made Wang Yuncheng feel nervous. The soldiers of the Zheng family army led by him are a total of 4,000 people, and they are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, so no one dares to guarantee what the outcome of the fight will be.
When the scout reported that the rogue who had been following behind surpassed the rogue in front and was already heading towards Wuning Town, Wang Yuncheng made up his mind. Attack the rogue in front first, leaving a thousand soldiers to defend against the rogue behind, this is a vicious battle. You have to fight, and you can't let the rogues escape from him.
The battle order had already been issued, and the soldiers of the Zheng family army were ambushed in the woods on both sides of the road, without too much hiding, and the terrain of Kuizhou was special, and it could be hidden everywhere. The people of Wuning Town have long been concentrated in a fixed place. No one is allowed to move, otherwise there will be no mercy.
Wang Yuncheng is just a military general. And he is a military general from a military household, he rarely has any strategy, what he thinks of as a battle is a face-to-face fight, defeating the other party is considered a victory, once the fighter comes, he forgets the strategy emphasized by Zheng Xunrui. But Wang Yuncheng also has an advantage, that is, he used to be a general in Sichuan, and he is familiar with the terrain of various parts of Sichuan, and he is also familiar with the customs here, so he is familiar with the road in arranging operations and knows how to set up ambushes.
The 5,000 people led by Sun Kewang, in fact, 1,000 cavalry, 4,000 foot soldiers, although the sergeant is very familiar with the terrain, but it is also very difficult to catch up, especially after getting on the official road, he can only follow behind, if it is not for the slippery road, he has no chance to keep up, because of the disadvantage of the number of cavalry, Sun Kewang does not dare to fight with Li Zicheng, after all, the 3,000 people are cavalry, really fighting, he does not have any advantage, and he will run away if he can't get it, so when Gu Junen said peace, Sun Kewang was very happy, as long as you can delay time, when Li Dingguo arrives, you will be able to find a way to deal with Li Zicheng.
When entering Wuning Town, Sun Kewang did not think of any vigilance, after the brigade stopped, he immediately began to arrange the defense matters, the purpose is to occupy the main road, so that Li Zicheng's three thousand sergeants can not force over, such an arrangement, for Sun Kewang, can be described as a light car familiar with the road, mountain combat, this is a necessary ability.
Just when Sun Kewang arranged the deployment, there was a rain of arrows in the sky.
Sun Kewang, who didn't understand for a while, thought that Li Zicheng was the first to attack, he was so angry that he couldn't imagine that Li Zicheng would suddenly make a move, no matter what, everyone is a righteous army, doesn't Li Zicheng talk about a little affection.
The rain of arrows was steady and fierce, some of the foot soldiers fell screaming, and the situation of the cavalry was not much better.
When the rumbling sound of horses' hooves appeared, Sun Kewang's face changed, he already felt that this was not an attack launched by Li Zicheng, it was wrong in terms of direction, Li Zicheng should have rushed to Wuning Town from the north, but the supply came from the south, and there was only one explanation, that is, there were officials and soldiers who had been ambushed here for a long time.
The battle unfolded in an instant.
After three rounds of arrow rain, Wang Yuncheng led 3,000 Zheng soldiers to attack.
The rushing war horses, with indomitable momentum, faced with the rogue battle, the soldiers of the Zheng family army were fearless and had the belief that they would win.
The remaining 1,000 soldiers of the Zheng family army who did not launch an attack moved faster, and they leaped their horses around the Liukou and guarded the official road that entered Wuning Town from the north to guard against the Liukou behind.
Sun Kewang has no experience in directly fighting with the Zheng family's army, in the battle of Shouzhou that year, the vanguard he led was the first to evacuate, and it was Zhang Xianzhong himself who broke off at that time, so in the face of the menacing Zheng family's army, Sun Kewang did not think of evacuation, he thought of face-to-face combat, and it was precisely because of this decision that Sun Kewang fell into a place of no return.
Gu Junen knew Zheng Jiajun, seeing Zheng Jiajun wearing a fiery red military uniform and cotton armor, his body trembled, his mind was blank, he didn't know why Zheng Jiajun appeared in Wuning Town, could it be said that Zheng Xunrui was an immortal, could he predict that the righteous army would pass through here.
The fight was very tragic, the righteous army was by no means the opponent of the Zheng family's army, it was also the righteous army, Gu Junen originally wanted to remind Sun Kewang to evacuate quickly, don't fall in love with the war, and try to preserve his strength as much as possible, the righteous army couldn't beat the Zheng family's army, but I don't know what the reason was, he didn't open his mouth in the end, but took advantage of the fact that everyone couldn't pay attention, and quietly dodged to the left side of the official road.
The battle in Wuning Town was quickly discovered by Li Zicheng, and the soldiers reported that Zheng Jiajun had fought with Sun Kewang in Wuning Town, this information made Li Zicheng's forehead break out in a cold sweat, and he thought of Zheng Jiajun's bravery.
The choice of heavy dà appeared in front of Li Zicheng again, either to lead the sergeant to fight with the Zheng family army and fight with Sun Kewang, or to turn around and withdraw in the direction of Wanxian, regardless of Sun Kewang, or to take advantage of the Zheng family army and Sun Kewang to fight, rush through Wuning Town and go to Zhongzhou.
Every choice is full of great danger, it is impossible to return to Wanxian, then it will definitely fight with Zhang Xianzhong, and it is debatable to fight with Sun Kewang, Li Zicheng knows that there should be chasing soldiers behind him, Zhang Xianzhong will not just send Sun Kewang, once he is dragged by the Zheng family's army, and when the sergeants under Zhang Xianzhong arrive, he is also a dead end, so thinking about it, rushing through Wuning Town and quickly evacuating in the direction of Zhongzhou, I am afraid it is the best choice.
But this choice is facing a greater danger, if the Zheng family army is deployed in the direction of Chungju, it will be a dead end.
The development of the situation, Li Zicheng could not hesitate and hesitate, he quickly made a decision, rushed through Wuning Town, and headed in the direction of Chungju, as for what kind of situation Chungju would face, that was the next thing to consider.
After the order was issued, the sergeant began to charge, but their charge was not to fight with the Zheng family's army, but to rush out of Wuning Town as much as possible, heading in the direction of Zhongzhou, King Chuang's order was very harsh, anyone must try their best to rush out, absolutely do not fall in love with the war, once they are targeted by the Zheng family's army, then they will consider themselves unlucky.
A strange scene appeared on the battlefield.
The Zheng family army was fighting with the Liukou, and the other Liukou rushed in, and the 1,000 Zheng Jiajun soldiers who had been prepared earlier had already begun to fight with the Liukou, but this Liukou had no intention of fighting, and did not even raise the spear in his hand, did not fire a bow and arrow, but desperately charged towards the front of the official road.
The soldiers of the Zheng family, who were caught off guard, were unable to stop the desperate charging rogues for a while.
It was also at this time that Gu Junen suddenly whipped up from the left side of the official road and joined the charging rogues.
The soldiers of the Zheng family army led by Wang Yuncheng were fighting with Sun Kewang, seeing the rogues rushing away, his face was flushed with anger.
The battle became even more tragic and ruthless, and a wave of anger spread in the hearts of the Zheng family soldiers, and the 1,000 Zheng family soldiers who were previously in charge of vigilance also joined the fight.
The Liukou soon began to crumble, and in the face of the all-out attack of the Zheng family's army, they were simply unable to resist.
Sun Kewang's face turned pale, he thought that Li Zicheng would make a move at this critical moment, but unfortunately Li Zicheng led 3,000 cavalry, what he thought of was to flee for his life, the courage of the Zheng family's army, he understood, the 1,000 cavalry he led, seeing that they were being rushed in all directions, the number of people in the process of fighting was sharply reduced, and the foot soldiers were even more miserable, only to be beaten, and they could not resist at all.
Sun Kewang, who found that the situation was wrong, thought about escaping, he couldn't take care of many sergeants, as long as he could rush out, but unfortunately he had already been targeted by Wang Yuncheng.
Just when Sun Kewang was desperately rushing towards the north of Wuning Town, more than a dozen Zheng family soldiers led by Wang Yuncheng firmly surrounded him in the middle of the official road.
Sun Kewang roared angrily, raised the spear in his hand, and stabbed at Wang Yuncheng...... (To be continued)
