Hundreds of soldiers poured into Lu Lianghong, and the Tartars had already been bombarded by the artillery, and when they saw An ** rushing up, they fled one after another. Some of them were brave and wanted to resist, but they were stabbed into a hornet's nest by dozens of bayonets.

Zhao Tian took the lead in rushing in, compared to ordinary Tartars, Zhao Tian was more interested in Shang Kexi, this guy is second only to Wu Sangui, Hong Chengchou's old traitor, if he can be captured alive, it will be a full credit.

Zhao Tian led his subordinates to cut down countless Tartars all the way, and whoever dared to block the road was a dead end, rampage, and rushed straight to the official office, and when he rushed to the yamen panting, he saw that the fire inside was soaring to the sky, and it was already crackling.

A few scary dressed people, with bulging bags in their arms, were running outside.

"Stop!"

When an old family member saw them, his face turned pale with fright, and he turned around and ran. Zhao Tian flew up and kicked him in the back, and after kicking this guy down, Zhao Tian stepped on his neck.

"Listen to me, where did Shang Kexi run?"

The guy at his feet hurriedly said: "The villain is just a miscellaneous person, the villain doesn't know!" ”

"Hmph, dare to say that I don't know, Lao Tzu trampled you to death!"

Zhao Tian said with force on his feet, and the heavy military boots continued to increase his strength. But this one stole a big gold bowl from the mansion and pressed it on his chest, and when he pressed it on it, he almost suffocated!

"My lord, spare my life, the little one has said everything!"

Zhao Tian relaxed slightly, and this guy said breathlessly: "My lord, Shang Kexi has already run away, since the city wall was blown up, he didn't even enter the yamen, and threw a bunch of torches from the outside." Turn around and run to the West Side! ”

"Hmph, cunning enough!"

Zhao Tian frowned and waved his hand: "Chase me!" ”

They hurriedly chased westward, and the family member finally got up with the big golden bowl in his arms, and wanted to flee for his life. But two bayonets were waiting for him.

"Don't try to run. Lead the way honestly, if you can't catch Shang Kexi, I'll take you to the account! ”

Zhao Tian led the people and chased them all the way to Xicheng, standing on top of the city tower and looking into the distance. I saw a cloud of dust rolling towards the northwest quickly, most likely Shang Kexi and his cronies.

Silently calculated the distance, and almost ran five miles.

"Hmph, I can run the first year of junior high school, but I can't run fifteen. The left and right will also run to Xuzhou, and Lao Tzu will not let you go when the time comes! ”

Zhao Tian stomped his foot with a snort. He poured all his anger on the remaining Tartars in the city, killing from east to west, from south to north, the bullets were gone, the bayonets were broken, and the slaughter lasted more than an hour, and more than a thousand Tartars were finally killed.

While the soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield. Gu Zhenhua and the soldiers finally drove into Lulianghong, standing in this small city full of stories, Gu Zhenhua was also full of emotion.

"Grandpa Guo, it's only fifty miles away from Xuzhou, do you want to rest and recuperate, and then march into the army?"

"Not necessarily." Gu Zhenhua shook his head and said: "Great rivers and mountains, if we are in the hands of the Tartars for a moment, our shame will be more." Clean up the battlefield and get on your way now. ”

"Yes!"

Zhao Tian led his subordinates to still act as the vanguard of the whole army, in order to speed up the march. He also used all the captured war horses to transport cannons, and all the soldiers carried dry food on their backs, day and night, and killed Xuzhou.

……

"Prince Ying, Prince Shang is back!"

Azig's face suddenly darkened: "Hmph." He still has the face to come back, how can he not die outside! ”

How dare the people below reply like this, they can only stand stunned, and only after a while Azig said: "Go, call him in!" ”

Not much fashion and joy walked in from outside, with his head hanging down, one hand still on his shoulder, baring his teeth and grinning, full of pain.

"Lord Shang, are you injured?"

"Prince Ying, the injury of the humble position is nothing, but the humble duty has something important to report!"

"Since injuries are nothing, can't you take them to war? Lv Lianghong is the gateway to Xuzhou, guarding the key points of the canal, and Ming Gou takes Lv Lianghong, and he can drive straight in! This king is sure to take Xuzhou within five days, but you lost Lu Lianghong in less than a day and ruined the king's major affairs, what do you say? ”

Facing Azig's questioning, Shang Kexi was also embarrassed, being a dog is like this, if the master is unhappy, you must be angry!

Fortunately, Shang Kexi was thick-skinned enough, and he said with a guilty face: "Prince Ying, I know that I am guilty of my humble duties, and I originally wanted to repay the emperor, Your Majesty, and the regent before the death of the army, but I felt that there were some things that I needed to tell the prince, so I licked my face back." If the prince thinks that he shouldn't say this, then you just have to ask the guilt! ”

Azig held back his anger and said with a sneer: "You are also the prince of the first emperor, how dare I ask about the crime, just say what you have to say." ”

"Yes!" Shang Kexi nodded, thought about it for a while, and then said: "Lord Wang, although the lowly position was defeated, but the lowly position has shown the tactics of An **, which is really sharp and abnormal, so the prince must pay attention to it." ”

"Tactics, what tactics?"

Shang Kexi said: "They use heavy artillery fire, and they line up in battle formations during wartime, using artillery at a distance and firearms at a close distance. It also has firearms such as divine fire flying crows, and its combat power is amazing. Whether it is a siege, a field battle, a battle or a defense, they all have unique characteristics, and if they can't restrain their sharp firearms, they can't win! ”

Azig disagreed, and sneered: "I think it's something amazing, we also have artillery, and we also have firecrackers." No matter how powerful this thing is, can it still withstand the impact of the Eight Flags powerhouse? ”

Shang Kexi secretly pursed his lips, and secretly said in his heart that he still talked about the Eight Banners, in front of Gu Zhenhua, you haven't been cheapened, don't you know the lesson!

Of course, Shang Kexi would not say it so bluntly, but said with a wry smile: "The Eight Banners are invincible in the world, this is well known." However, the Ming people have strong firepower, and even if they win, they will suffer heavy losses. What's more, Bolo's entire army is gone. Our forces no longer have the upper hand, and such a desperate fight will inevitably hurt our muscles and bones, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Shang Kexi's meaning is very clear, that is, to sue you, Bolo also thinks so, this guy is finished. Do you want to follow in his footsteps?

Azig is not a fool, although he is arrogant, but he also knows that there is no benefit in fighting hard.

In the big tent, after a few turns, Azig said, "Lord Shang." You have a wound, sit down first. If you have any good idea, just say it, and the king will obey it. ”

Azig's words softened, and Shang Kexi looked around, and suddenly leaned out. lowered his voice and said, "Prince Ying, I've been thinking about ways to deal with An ** all the way. Their firepower is too strong to be beaten, but since ancient times, we can think of other ways. ”

"Fire and water? Do you mean waiting for a rainy day to fight them, that would have some effect on their arquebus! ”

Shang Kexi smiled slightly: "Lord Wang." Gu Zhenhua can also avoid it on a rainy day, I mean find something he can't avoid! ”

"What?"

"Yellow River!" These two words came out of Shang Kexi's mouth, and Azig was suddenly startled.

……

Galloping for fifty miles in a day, finally in the faint morning light, Zhao Tian saw the towering city wall of Xuzhou from afar, and there were camps outside the city, fluttering the banner of the Tartars.

"Send a letter to the city right away. Reinforcements have arrived, let them rejoice too! ”

The little pigeon carried the news and flew easily through the camp, until it reached the city, Wu Kaijie and they had long been looking forward to it, and when they saw the pigeon, they were overjoyed and hurriedly took the pigeon in their hands.

"Hey, I'm finally saved, and I can rest!"

Wu Kaijie was weak. sat on the head of the city, and at this time, Hu Maozhen and Li Guodong were standing beside him and grabbed Wu Kaijie.

"Save people to the end, send Buddha to the west. Staff Officer Wu, let's wait to welcome reinforcements to the city! ”

Huang Degong also smiled: "That's right. I think it should be a combination of inside and outside, but I didn't say it, Huang is willing to be this charge. ”

Hu Maozhen hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Huang Houye, you have fought a lot, not bad for this credit, Brother Li and I will kill together with men and horses, and promise to bring in reinforcements!" ”

Huang Degong thought about it and said with a smile: "Okay, please leave it to the two of you." ”

Hu Maozhen and Li Guodong immediately drew two thousand elites from their soldiers. said that it was the elite, after fighting these days, they were also exhausted one by one, and some people were still injured, but when they heard the arrival of reinforcements, they all came to their senses.

Properly contact Zhao Tian, the cannon outside the city is the number, and the two sides will fight together.

Finally, bursts of artillery rang out outside the city, and clouds of gunpowder smoke erupted from the Tartar camp, Hu Maozhen and Li Guodong rose up bravely and rushed to the Tartar camp with their men and horses.

Crossed the trench, broke away the antlers, and rushed all the way to the camp. Progress gods, but when they got inside, both of them were dumbfounded.

"This, why is there no Tartar here, where have they all fled?"

Li Guodong and Hu Maozhen were shocked, could it be that they had succeeded in the scheme!

At this time, the other soldiers also ran to the front and said, "Lord Qiqi, the camp is empty, and there are no Tartars at all!" ”

"Hmph, I don't believe they can disappear, hurry up and rush with me!"

ran a short distance away, and suddenly heard the sound of people shouting and neighing in front of him, and Hu Maozhen hurriedly rushed over.

"Tartar!"

"Tartar!"

As soon as the two sides met, a stunned boy shot directly, and the bullet accidentally hit the hairpin on Hu Maozhen's helmet. was so frightened that Hu Maozhen was cold.

"Don't shoot!"

Zhao Tian hurriedly ran over at this time and shouted loudly: "Brothers from Xuzhou on the other side? ”

"Is it Ann's reinforcements on the other side?"

The soldier who fired the gun was also dumbfounded, and after a long time, it turned out to be his own family.

Zhao Tian hurriedly came to Hu Maozhen's face, and said ashamedly: "It's all my fault for being inadequate, which frightened you!" ”

"I'm really frightened, but I'm surprised that this brother's marksmanship is so good, such a small hairpin has hit, it's really amazing!"

When he said this, everyone laughed, and the scene suddenly became harmonious.

After a brief introduction by Hu Maozhen and Zhao Tian, they searched around for the Tartar camp, and now all the Tartars in the southwest of Xuzhou have been withdrawn, leaving only an empty military camp.

"Which one is this singing by the Tartars, is it to set up an empty city plan?"

Hu Maozhen said with a smile: "Maybe it was the Tartars who heard that the Duke of Ji Guo was coming, and scared them out, so they all ran away early!" ”

Zhao Tian couldn't figure it out for a while, he could only send a letter to Gu Zhenhua.

Gu Zhenhua was only a little more than half a day's distance from Zhao Tian, and he led the army and rushed to Xuzhou calmly.

Huang Degong, He Tengjiao, Wu Kaijie, and Zhou Yingjie all led the men and horses to wait outside the city.

Gu Zhenhua took a few steps and took the initiative to reach out and grab Huang Degong.

"Dude, how did you become self-explanatory? Brother Rong guessed if it was a Tartar who shot an arrow in Brother Huang's eye, Brother Huang grabbed the shaft of the arrow, shouting the blood of his father and mother, how could he abandon it! Then swallow it in a big gulp, and scare countless Tartars to death! ”

Huang Degong laughed: "Brother Gu, don't look at Huang as a rough person, you also know that you are comparing me to Xiahoudun!" Huang doesn't have the courage to be more heroic than a hero, but it's just a sentence, guarding Xuzhou these days, Huang is worthy of his heart! ”

Gu Zhenhua grabbed his hand tightly and said with a smile: "Brother, real man, Gu used to underestimate his brother, and please don't be surprised." ”

"Hey, three months back, Huang Degong also looks down on Gu Zhenhua, and now Huang still relies on Grandpa Guo to eat."

"What a straightforward Huang Chuangzi!"

Gu Zhenhua said, and came to the front of Wu Kaijie and Zhou Yingjie again, and grabbed the two lovers who were a little out of shape.

"You have suffered!"

When the two of them heard this, they thought of the hard battles of these days, and their eyes were all red, and Wu Kaijie choked up and cried: "Grandpa Guo, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hear Grandpa Guo's scolding anymore these days, even if I get to Lord Yama, I won't be happy!" ”

Zhou Yingjie hurriedly turned his head, for fear of being infected by this mentally retarded person.

Gu Zhenhua easily entered the city with a large army, and the people of Xuzhou were all relieved, and there were smiling faces everywhere.

Only Gu Zhenhua frowned, not very happy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there must be something strange in the retreat of the Tartars for no reason, I am afraid that they have a bigger conspiracy!"

"Conspiracy, what else can there be!" Huang Degong said disappreciably: "Boluo and Hong Chengchou are Azig's right-hand men, these two people are finished, Azig must be ready to retreat!" ”

"No, never! The old slave's grave was dug up, so he rushed to this point, touched his nose and left, that was definitely not Azig's style! ”

Just as Gu Zhenhua was speaking, someone suddenly ran in.

"Grandpa Guo, something is wrong, a farmer came running from outside the city, and he begged us to hang him up, saying that he had something important to report!"

When Gu Zhenhua heard this, he suddenly stood up: "Quick, bring someone over!" ”

Not long after, a young farmer brought him to Gu Zhenhua, he rubbed his eyes, looked at Gu Zhenhua, and hurriedly cried on the ground: "Great benefactor, great lord, something is wrong, the Tartars are going to dig up the embankment and flood Xuzhou!" ”
