The scene became a massacre, or a feast of hunting, the time and place were favorable, and the Sichuan army occupied all of them, constantly reaping the lives of the fleeing Great Western Army.

"Don't kill me, I surrender." In the process of fleeing, some people could not bear the pressure of the mountain and could not overcome the fear of death, so they dismounted with a scream, threw their weapons on the ground, knelt on the ground, raised their hands above their heads, and shouted loudly. ”

"I surrender"

"Don't kill me, I'll drop too."

The role of example is endless, as soon as he saw someone surrendering, someone immediately followed suit, and for a while he knelt on the ground, and when he saw the surrender of the Great Western Army, Li Dingguo immediately said loudly: "Those who surrender will not be killed." ”

"Those who descend will not be killed!"

"Those who descend will not be killed!"

A group of soldiers received an order, while chasing and killing those who were still on the run, while loudly proclaiming this order, so that the desperate and helpless Great Western Army suddenly fell to its knees, and even some cavalry who ran away also dismounted and surrendered.

The Sichuan army has fast horses, sharp muskets, and is familiar with the terrain, so the probability of running away is not great, and there is one point, such a big defeat, it is estimated that Zhang Xianzhong must be in a bad mood, as soon as he is in a bad mood, he will find an excuse to kill, even if he can escape, he is afraid of being killed after returning to the camp, it is better to surrender.

Li Dingguo did not stop, led his troops to chase for hundreds of miles, and slaughtered seven or eight out of ten of the fleeing Daxi Army, until it was almost dark, and then led his troops to look back at Jiangguan.

On the way back, Sun Xiong said with some puzzlement: "Brother, those Great Western Army will die when they die, why do they keep and waste food, how happy it is to slaughter with one knife." ”

Li Dingguo smiled, then shook his head and said, "It's a pity to kill it, how can it be useful to keep it." ”

"Is this an order from an adult?"

"Well, yes," Li Dingguo replied simply and directly.

Sun Xiong pursed his lips and said, "How many people do we want in Sichuan?" What do you want these guys to do, I'm afraid it's a tiger for trouble. ”

"You don't understand this, right" Li Dingguo said with some pride: "These people are prisoners, we can deal with them as we want, you see this one by one, the most suitable to be a coolie, the adult said, the prosperity of a region, first of all, industrial development, economic prosperity, and the premise of industrial development, economic prosperity is to have a large number of cheap labor, give them a little food without using labor to make them work, such as opening up barren mountains, growing food, building roads and bridges, etc., where to find such a good thing?" ”

After a pause, Li Dingguo sneered and said: "No matter how bad it is, when the time comes, they will be incorporated into the army as cannon fodder, or they will be sold to the wealthy families in Sichuan as domestic slaves or something, no matter how they do, they will not suffer." ”

"It's still the eldest brother who thinks thoughtfully, no, it's the adults who think thoughtfully." Sun Xiong said with admiration.

Li Dingguo waved his hand and said: "Okay, it's useless to say this, hurry, help take prisoners, this is just right, let them clean up the battlefield, so that we don't have to take action, so many things have to be cleaned up, broken hands and feet are scattered all over the place, I feel disgusting to think about it." ”

"No, I want to vomit when I smell that smell from afar."

The two of them gathered their troops and escorted the prisoners while returning, with a victorious smile on their faces, judging from the information fed back by his subordinates, Zhang Xianzhong escaped by boat, because he fled quickly, he couldn't catch up even if he wanted to, but there was also good news, more than 100,000 Western troops who participated in the siege were annihilated and captured, and they escaped in one or two percent.

This is an extremely beautiful battle, and it is estimated that not many people believe it even if it is spread.

"It's really hateful, I actually let Zhang Xianzhong, a big fish, run away, if I catch him, it will save effort." Sun Xiong said with some unwillingness.

Li Dingguo's heart was a little relaxed, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Yes, we found Sun Kewang's body, this is also a great achievement, as for Zhang Xianzhong, don't be afraid, Dashan and Zhang Rui are waiting for them." ”

Such a result is undoubtedly the best for Li Dingguo, people are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless, although there is a break with Zhang Xianzhong, but there is still a little affection in the bottom of his heart that cannot be parted, after all, in the first few years, Zhang Xianzhong also sincerely served Li Dingguo well, not only taught by word and deed, but also gave him a lot of opportunities to exercise, if it is really right, Li Dingguo is not sure that he will not hesitate to shoot at him, now Zhang Xianzhong escaped, and the other brothers to face, so that there is no need to be so embarrassed.

"That's also, Dashan and Zhang Rui are both masters of cold knives, and when they meet them, they can drink a pot."

There are two sides to the world, some people are happy and some are sad, just when Li Dingguo and Sun Xiong were talking and dancing, Zhang Xianzhong was standing on the bow of the boat with a lonely face, Liu Wenxiu and the injured Ai Nengqi followed behind him, and the guards on both sides were full of vigilant henchmen, although Zhang Xianzhong's face was so gloomy that it could drip, but no one dared to come forward to persuade him.

is angry, whoever dares to step forward is unlucky.

"Big, big king" At this time, a shipwright approached Zhang Xianzhong tremblingly, and said cautiously: "It's getting dark, the river is rushing and there are many reefs, and I am only afraid of night sailing, but I am afraid of ........"

The boatman couldn't go on, but everyone could understand what he meant, the Yangtze River was fast, there were many reefs, and he had to be cautious when driving during the day, and sailing in the dark night was undoubtedly suicide.

When Zhang Xianzhong heard this, he looked up at the sky, only to see that the sun was setting, the sun had gone down, and there was only the last trace of afterglow left in the sky.

The self-proclaimed king of the Great West originally wanted to dominate the "west" of the west, but now it has become the "west" of the declining west.

"Wenxiu, how far are we from Wanxian now?" Zhang Xianzhong suddenly asked.

Zhang Xianzhong stepped into the camp, after capturing Yunyang and Wanxian, most of the people were settled first and then set off, which was regarded as taking over while attacking, and there were heavy troops in Wanxian County, where the position was more important, and the destination of Zhang Xianzhong's trip was Wanxian.

The purpose of going to Wanxian County is naturally to make a comeback, but not to attack Sichuan, but to take back Hunan and Jiangxi, which they have discarded, again.

After the battle of Wangjiang Pass, Zhang Xianzhong's heart for Sichuan peeping is gone, and the luck in his heart is no longer there, if Li Zicheng is a fierce tiger, and Lu Haoshan, who has been nesting in Sichuan, is a terrifying ancient beast, so powerful that it makes people tremble.

Now Zhang Xianzhong just wants to be able to exit Sichuan safely, for him, he would rather face a ferocious tiger than provoke an ancient giant beast that devours people and does not vomit bones, so powerful that people can't shake it.

"If you go back to your father-in-law, there is still about a day to go." Liu Wenxiu didn't dare to slack off, and responded respectfully.

Going up the river and going down the river are two different things, and it's much faster.

There is still a day to go, Zhang Xianzhong looked back, except for the two escorted boats, there were no other boats, fortunately he saw the opportunity quickly, slipped away early, and the Sichuan army did not notice, and then naively thought that it was no problem for the people he left behind to support the day, so he nodded and said: "Yes, the order to go down, find a safe place to spend the night, prohibit fireworks, and provoke the Sichuan army." ”

"Yes, my lord," the boatman replied with a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the not-so-good-tempered coach did not order a night flight, nor did he embarrass himself, which can be regarded as burning incense.

Liu Wenxiu said flatteringly: "Father-in-law, you haven't eaten for a long time, so go get me some wine and food." ”

Zhang Xianzhong didn't speak, but he didn't say anything against it, Liu Wenxiu knew that he acquiesced, made a salute to Zhang Xianzhong, turned around and prepared to prepare food for him, but when he turned around, he suddenly felt a flash in front of him, as if there was some glow, take a closer look, it turned out to be the afterglow of a thick iron chain with a thick bowl mouth, first fluted, but soon roared out of control: "Stop the boat, stop the boat, quickly, the front is locked in the river." ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole boat was shocked, and everyone looked forward when they heard the words, and saw that everyone's faces changed: a big iron chain with a thick bowl mouth crossed the river, just in a place where the water was turbulent, and if the boat collided, under the impetus of such a rapid current, it would definitely be the end of the ship's destruction and death.

Zhang Xianzhong's face turned white all of a sudden, and he finally understood why he was able to escape, not because the Sichuan army was negligent, nor because they deliberately let him go, but because they had already laid out their pockets, and waited for themselves to rush in to collect the line.

"Quick, hold the boat steady." Zhang Xianzhong shouted loudly.

The "king" boatman almost cried: "This is downstream, the river is turbulent, unless there is a slender man, otherwise this boat can't stop." ”

The boat can go upstream, relying on the people to pull the fiber, no one pulls the fiber, and it is a fool's dream to stop or return.

A group of boatmen desperately tried to stabilize the boat, even Zhang Xianzhong's henchmen and guards also moved, but the boat couldn't stop, and under the impetus of the current, it rushed straight to the big iron cable blocked on the river.

In front of the natural interface, the power of man is too small.

"Quick, let go of the boat, send someone to cut the iron cable" Zhang Xianzhong immediately made a decision and immediately ordered.

Zhang Xianzhong's order was immediately executed, and more than a dozen guards jumped out of the boat, carrying big knives and preparing to cut off the obstructive iron cable, which was a good idea, but the big iron cable was made of high-quality iron smelted from the blast furnace ordered by Lu Haoshan, which was extremely strong, and the blade was curled up, and it was only cut less than an inch deep.

In fact, it is difficult to cut in the river, the river is turbulent, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the river, you need to grasp the iron cable with one hand and cut it with one hand, and you can't give full play to the strength, and the big iron cable is as thick as the mouth of the bowl.

It's about to hit and hasn't been cut yet, there is really no way, Zhang Xianzhong gritted his teeth and said: "Abandon the ship, everyone go ashore." ”

There is an iron rope lock river, then there must be an ambush nearby, but Zhang Xianzhong can't manage so much, don't bully the mountains and the water, you will definitely die in the water, and there is still a glimmer of life in the mountains. R1152
