Ge Li Yan He Yilong and Zuo Jin Wang He Jin are not stupid at all, they know very well that in the righteous army, you need to rely on strength to speak, otherwise you only have to be obedient, everyone is out to rebel, what they think of is glory, wealth and women, there is wine today and drunk today, who would have thought of so many things in the future, if it is bad luck and is surrounded and suppressed by the official army, then there is nothing, there are too many lessons ahead, just say Cao Cao Luo Rucai, who was just elected as the chief leader, was beheaded by the official army.

The Xingyang Conference, in their opinion, is the conference of sharing the spoils, the strongest Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, developing in the direction of Nanzhili, if it is really successful, it will definitely obtain a lot of benefits, gold, silver and jewelry, including women, everything, followed by the old Huihui, coordinated in the middle, will not directly face the encirclement and suppression of the official army, and the other rebels are all bitter for Luo Rucai and others to block the officials and troops in all directions, this is a thankless thing, after the development of Luo Rucai and others, The rest of the rebels need to worry about being annexed at all times.

He Yilong and He Jin, among the thirteen rebels, are second only to Luo Rucai and others in strength, so the arrangement for them is also very good, marching towards the south to resist the army of Huguang and Sichuan, it seems that the task is very heavy, but in fact, they have taken advantage of it, the vast army of Hu, once defeated in the hands of the rebels, has not recovered at all, there is no combat effectiveness, after the Sichuan army arrived in Henan, it was very afraid of war, and almost did not take the initiative to attack.

Therefore, after the Xingyang Conference, the two marched to the south, and the effect was very good, the Sichuan army and the Huguang official army stationed in Nanyang Mansion did not move at all, and let them plunder in Ruzhou and even Nanyang Mansion, and in more than ten days, the two plundered a large amount of money and food, and saw that their strength increased.

It was at this time that news came from Xingyang, the general leader Luo Rucai was defeated in Fengyang Mansion and was killed by the Zheng family's army, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng were defeated in Shouzhou, and the Zheng family's army was beaten only by fleeing to Xingyang.

The news from the direction of Xingyang asked the two to concentrate towards Xingyang.

After receiving the news, He Yilong and He Jin discussed carefully, although the news in the direction of Xingyang was very vague, but they knew that this failure must be a fiasco, which also made them gasp, isn't Zheng Jiajun in Yansui, when did he come to Henan, and entered Nanzhili, you must know that the most famous leaders of the righteous army almost all died under the command of Zheng Jiajun, and the leader of the righteous army secretly called Zheng Xunrui, the governor of Yansui, the butcher of Zheng, and no one dared to provoke him.

Luo Rucai and others attacked Fengyang, which also surprised He Yilong and He Jin, if they took Fengyang, what a sensation it would be, how much money and food they should get, I am afraid they can't count it. Since it is an attack on Fengyang, it must be an absolute elite, and when it encounters the Zheng family's army, what good fruit can be eaten, I am afraid that the elite will be almost lost.

Many rebels gathered in Xingyang again, what will they say, the two of them know very well, they are not willing to rush to Xingyang stupidly and become the object of use by others, they need to observe, and the Zheng family army is still in Nanzhili, and they will not come to Henan for a while.

This was also the reason why the two of them were marching slowly, but the news they had just received made them highly nervous.

Zheng Xunrui was appointed by the imperial court as the left squire of the military department, responsible for the extermination of the Liukou, and the Zheng Jiajun has entered Henan to fully deploy the matter of exterminating the Liukou.

Look at the Twelve Paths Righteous Army, most of them are moving closer in the direction of Xingyang, only their speed is slower, if they are targeted by the Zheng Family, they will not have good fruits to eat.

Thinking of this, the two of them almost did not hesitate and ordered the army to quickly set off from Baofeng and head in the direction of Xingyang.

There is only one way to go, that is, to follow the direction of Tanxian, Yuzhou, and Xinzheng, and move quickly towards Xingyang.

The idea of the two is good, but also with a fluke mentality, they are not the most powerful in the righteous army, the official army always has a habit of exterminating the righteous army, that is, to look at the strongest one, plus Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng suffered defeat, at this moment must be panicked, the official army took advantage of the victory to pursue, that is a sure thing.

They plundered too much money and food, even if they wanted to speed up the pace of the march, it was not very likely, to join their army of 50,000 people, the cavalry was less than 5,000 people, most of them were foot soldiers, so that their march speed could not be very fast.

When they first set off, they paid attention and sent sergeants to reconnoitre, but after two days, they found nothing, which reassured them, and they began to slack off, and no longer sent sergeants to reconnoitre.

The intelligence of He Yilong and He Jin's army continued to gather to Zheng Xunrui.

Seeing this information, Lu Xiangsheng was a little speechless, he couldn't imagine that He Yilong and He Jin were so stupid, it seems that the end is really coming, they set off from Xinzheng and rushed to Yuzhou, the battle will start in Yuzhou, and then the Sichuan general army has arrived in Tan County, blocking the back road of the Liukou, so that He Yilong and He Jin have no place to escape.

In just half a day, nearly 30,000 troops arrived in Yuzhou, that is, this march, so that Lu Xiangsheng has a new understanding of the Zheng family's army, this is definitely a fierce brigade, the marching speed is extremely fast, the movements are uniform, and the army shows a murderous aura, which is terrifying.

Lu Xiangsheng finally knows where Zheng Xunrui's self-confidence comes from.

The ambush site chosen is still a mountain col outside Yuzhou City, which is more than 30 miles away from Yuzhou City, and the official road passes through the mountain pass, the area of the mountain col is not very large, but it is conducive to the attack of cavalry.

The twentieth day of the first month of the eighth year of Chongzhen.

It's exactly the time when spring break ends.

He Yilong and the 50,000 soldiers under He Jin's command had not yet fully entered the mountain col before the battle began.

The first reaction of the unprepared rogues was to flee, but unfortunately they were faced with cavalry, and the attacks of Franco, crossbows, bird guns and arrow rain had already made them feel terrified, and they completely lost the courage to resist, and desperately retreated in the direction of Tanxian.

This cannot be considered a battle, it can only be considered a massacre.

He Yilong and He Jin couldn't take care of the foot soldiers, nor did they care about the money and food, and fled desperately in the direction of Tanxian with five thousand cavalry, they had no chance to regret it, after seeing the handsome banner of the official army, they knew that they had met the Zheng family's army, and even the chief leader Luo Rucai was killed by the Zheng family's army, if they resisted, they would only die worse.

The foot soldiers relied on their legs and had no chance of escaping, and after only half an hour, the rogue who was lucky enough to survive chose to surrender.

10,000 Zheng Jiajun under the leadership of Zheng Xunrui, Yang He, Liu Zeqing and others, followed the pursuit, Zheng Jinhong and others stayed behind to clean up the battlefield, after all, money and food are the most important, as for those who surrendered, find a place to concentrate, and after screening, they will be dealt with.

The battle was very boring, and there were hardly any decent fights.

Lu Xiangsheng was not able to follow the army to pursue, he would not have any complaints, although he was a little proud and noble, but in front of Zheng Xunrui and Zheng Jiajun, he was not proud at all, the momentum of Zheng Jiajun's charge and fighting, even he, a strong general who had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't help but be surprised and trembled.

In this duel, where is the battle between the armies, it is like a battle of slaughtering pigs and sheep, and the rogues collapse instantly, without the slightest power to fight back.

The next situation of cleaning up the battlefield made Lu Xiangsheng even more surprised, the soldiers of the Zheng family, seeing the scattered money, all picked up and put it together, no one took a penny of silver, all the money, food and weapons were quickly gathered, loaded on the carriage, waiting to be cleaned up when they went back.

What kind of strict discipline is required, ordinary troops can't do it at all, Lu Xiangsheng looked at the sergeants of the Tianxiong Army under his command, and when he saw the money, the expression revealed in his eyes contained a lot of greed, but the soldiers of the Zheng family's army, when they saw the money, their faces did not change at all.

The battle was cleaned very quickly, and it was over in less than an hour, and the tents of the army were already set up, and it seemed that the army was encamped here, waiting for the return of the army that had gone to pursue it.

Lu Xiangsheng came to Zheng Jinhong's side and spoke with emotion.

"General Zheng, the Zheng family army created by the adults can be described as invincible in the world."

Zheng Jinhong looked at Lu Xiangsheng, smiled slightly, and spoke.

"Lord Lu, the young master has already put forward a request, the military discipline and military regulations of the Zheng family army are put in the first place, all behaviors that violate military discipline and military regulations, no matter who it is, must be dealt with by military law, there were individual sergeants in the past, who were lucky, but now they have all gone underground, so the sergeants know that military discipline and military rules must not be violated, and after the victory of the battle, those who should be rewarded, the young master will never be ambiguous."

"Good, good, rewards and punishments are clear, this is the real king's teacher."

"Lord Lu has won the award, the young master has been dissatisfied with his subordinates, saying that his subordinates are officers of the Zheng family's army, they have no foresight, and it is difficult to deal with more brutal battles, and their subordinates have been studying hard, and the young master is very praising Lord Lu, and his subordinates have the opportunity to learn from Lord Lu."

Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand again and again.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, the lower official must learn from the adult, such a strong army, such strict discipline, this is the dream of the lower officer, and after the battle, the lower official pleaded to the adult's side, and when the time comes, please ask General Zheng to help with a few kind words."

After setting up camp, Zheng Jinhong began to clean up the seized money, food and weapons, Lu Xiangsheng looked in the direction of Tan County, he believed that it would not take long for Zheng Xunrui to return victoriously, He Yilong and He Jin must not think about escaping, and they have no chance to escape, in the face of the strong Zheng family's army, they have no chance.

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head slightly, I am afraid that the end of the Liukou will come soon, and it is an absolutely wise choice for the imperial court to ask Zheng Xunrui to be responsible for exterminating the Liukou.
