Li Dingguo turned to He Tengjiao and Qu Shiyun and said: "Please send troops to the death to drag Qian Guoan, Ma Xiong, Quan Jie and other Qing soldiers in Guangxi, as long as they can't support Kong Youde in Guangxi, even for a month!" Right! Just drag it out for a month! It will take at least 20 days, and I am confident that I can eliminate Kong Youde! ”

He Tengjiao and Qu Shiyun heard it, they were very happy, they would do their best to drag the Qing soldiers, they knew that the Dao soldiers were fast, and when they were about to leave to arrange military affairs, Hou Qi came to report quickly.

Hou Qi reported that Kong Youde had received an urgent report from Shen Yongzhong, and that his men and horses were ready to set off from Guilin to rescue.

"Ha Lu Ha! Well done! Li Dingguo laughed and said, "I'm looking forward to the stars and the moon waiting for you Kong Youde to send troops!" Now as soon as you send out your army, I will destroy you! ”

Li Dingguo waved his hand and said, "Get ready, send troops to the whole state!" "Li Dingguo's army first arrived in Qiyang County, and then directly attacked Quanzhou, the gateway to Guangxi.

His troops were divided into three routes, the left route led by Feng Shuangli to take Quanzhou, and the right route led by Zhang Sheng to knock directly on Yanguan. The Left Route Army broke through Jeonju with a strange army and occupied Jeonju.

Li Dingguo did not let the troops enter the city, nor did they have the slightest rest, so he led them all the way to Yanguan, to meet Zhang Sheng's men and horses.

Huang Qi didn't understand, the army was tired, why couldn't he even go to Quanzhou City to rest for a day? What is this Li Dingguo thinking?

Huang Qi couldn't help but look at Xuan Jianhao, who smiled at him and said, "General Huang, you can rest assured!" General Ning Yu's clever plan will definitely defeat the enemy army! Ha! General Ning Yu is worthy of being a generation of generals! ”

Huang Qi still didn't understand, but since even Mr. said so, of course he had to obey. If it were Zhang Biwu. Huang Qi is not suspicious at all.

"Gotcha!" A ride came quickly. said: "General Yu, Yanguan has been captured!" When Huang Qi heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said: "Hayan Pass has been captured!" ”

"Gotcha!" Another horse came quickly, this is the Hou cavalry sent by Li Dingguo, the Hou cavalry said: "General Huang, my marshal ordered me to pass the order, please General Huang stationed near Yanguan." to chase down the enemy! ”

Huang Qi was stunned again and said, "Okay! Returning to General Li, I will obey the order! Hou Qi patted his horse and sped away.

Huang Qi said: "Sir, do you think that Li Dingguo is afraid that we will make meritorious contributions, so he does not let me make meritorious contributions, but let me stay here?" ”

Xuan Jianhao covered his mouth, then smiled, and said, "General Huang, you think too much!" I think General Lee is going to give us a great credit! Just watch patiently! ”

Sure enough, as Xuan Jianhao expected, the Qing soldiers were after the loss of Yanguan. They came to seize the Yanguan, but they were defeated by Li Dingguo. At this time, Huang Qi's army still did not move, but watched Li Dingguo's Western Army make great contributions.

He is gearing up, including the five thousand wolf soldiers he recruited, who also wants to grow a good face in his hometown, and you let them tan aside, they are not happy.

Many people Li Dingguo complained, thinking that Li Dingguo was afraid that they would make meritorious contributions, so they would not fight on the frontal battlefield.

At this time, Li Dingguo sent someone to send the clothes of the Qing army, telling Huang Qi that in the future, Huang Qi's army would wear these clothes in order to attack Guilin and make great achievements.

Of course, if you can directly take off the head of the thief Kong Youde in the next battle, there will be no need to be so troublesome.

As Li Dingguo expected, after the Qing army could not recapture Yanguan, Kong Youde was very angry, and he personally asked the imperial court to send troops to attack Li Dingguo. We must immediately send troops to eliminate Li Dingguo.

Kong Youde's army was all elite, and he followed him all the way south from Shanhaiguan, but he did not meet an opponent, and he was very arrogant. Now when I meet Li Dingguo again, I also think that he can easily eliminate Li Dingguo.

Kong Youde was in front of Yanguan, and Li Dingguo was in front of Chen Bing. On the other side, Huang Qi's more than 10,000 people and horses all came secretly.

On the high mountain, Huang Qi looked carefully and said, "Oh! Li Dingguo: Let's attack from the flank! Giggle! All right! I'll let the wolf soldiers rush to the flanks! Otherwise, they didn't fight, and they couldn't show their skills in front of their hometown fathers and elders, Cen Yong and the others complained to me to death! ”

Huang Qi looked at the clothes again and thought, "Is it really as Li Dingguo expected?" Can you win? ”

"Listen! What a sound this is! Someone pointed into the distance and shouted. Huang Qi listened to it, one after another, miserable, tragic, hoarse, and procrastinating.

The sound was uncomfortable to hear, and at the same time, it was like something sad to face.

Huang Qi looked at it from afar, this is the cry of an elephant! There were fifty elephants in front of Li Dingguo's army, and the elephant soldiers made the elephants make a mournful sound, of course, it was a mournful sound to people, but what the elephants actually wanted to express was the cheers that were excited to participate in the war!

The Qing soldiers have never been defeated in a battle with anything for a long time, but now they have never seen a behemoth that looks like an elephant? And this kind of screaming is extremely uncomfortable.

The most prominent performance is the war horse, which lowers its head and uneasily plows the ground with its front hooves. Kong Youde shouted: "Everyone is not afraid! We are all elites, all the way from Shanhaiguan, and have achieved countless victories! Now we are facing the defeat of our men in Sichuan, how can we lose? This battle will be won! ”

"Victory!" The soldiers all shouted after Kong Youde, they had great pride, because they were elite!

"Hee-hee!" Li Dingguo laughed out loud and said, "Kong Youde, I want to avenge the old master!" Father, take a good look at it in the spirit of heaven! Hauge and Apollan are dead, so now there must be this Kong Youde, and I will definitely crush him to ashes! ”

Li Dingguo made a move to order the flag, and fifty war elephants immediately came out jubilantly! The elephants lined up in a row, and when they charged, they shook the earth, and the whole earth was like an earthquake, and people couldn't stand even if they wanted to.

Qing was pulling his war horse, not wanting the war horse to be uneasy. But the eyes of the war horse caught sight of the elephant. My heart panicked. Such a behemoth, a war horse in the north, how have you ever seen it? And it's terrifying, right? As they charged, the earth shook. There are war horses that can't help but retreat, and their eyes are full of fear.

Behind the elephants was Li Dingguo's army, armed with sharp blades, roaring and shouting: "Kill! Come on! ”

Suddenly the dust covered the sky. Can't see the situation clearly. If you don't have dust and sand, at least you can see it, you can see it with your eyes, and it won't be too scary, but once you can't see it, you can't see the enemy clearly, then you will fall into fear and fear.

But the elephant's cry was so tragic, miserable, and heavy, so heavy that people couldn't stand it, and even the horses couldn't stand it.

Kong Youde shouted: "Shoot!" Shoot those elephants! "It's not that easy! Before setting out on the expedition, Li Dingguo had the fifty elephants brought to the mud. If you let the elephant roll around in the mud, the elephant's body will be covered with a thick layer of silt.

In addition, the elephant itself has thick skin. Your arrows are not good arrows, and if they are far away, they may not be able to penetrate the elephant.

No, the shouts of the Qing soldiers caused a panic: "You can't shoot to death!" What a monster this is! "Good boy! Who told you that you didn't know! Don't even understand elephants?

I don't know who couldn't control his war horse first, and the war horse ran backwards and ran like crazy. It's like a chain reaction like dominoes, and the other horses are also running together, galloping very fast.

Since the cavalry has fled, do you still want the infantry to stay and die? They also ran along!

"Rush!" From the flank of the Qing army, the wolf soldiers attacked! The wolf soldiers were already holding their breath, and one or two of them were high-spirited soldiers, which made the Qing army unstoppable.

"Don't run! Attack! Attack! "Kong Youde can let you scream, and you can't let the crowd retreat. Kong Youde immediately slashed and killed several enemy soldiers passing by him with his sword, even if he held their heads early, it was useless.

The relatives around him persuaded Kong Youde: "Lord Wang, let's go!" Go back to Guilin first to defend it, and then wait for the time to recover! ”

Seeing the current situation, Kong Youde really had to go back to Guilin first and then make plans as the general said.

Although Kong Youde is still unwilling in his heart, what can he do? He drove his horse back to Guilin City first.

As soon as Guilin City saw that it was their king of Dingnan, he immediately opened the city gate and welcomed Kong Youde into the city.

Li Dingguo handed over the men and horses to Feng Shuangli, Zhang Sheng, and Ma Jinzhong to lead, and he quietly came to Huang Qi and said, "How is it? General Huang, let's march to Guilin together! ”

Huang Qi pointed to his soldiers, everyone had put on the clothes of the Qing army, and they were ready for a long time, so they set off immediately.

On the other hand, Qian Guoan, the governor of Guangxi, Ma Xiong, the chief soldier of the left wing of Guangxi, and the general soldier of the right wing of Guangxi, Quan Jie, could not have expected that Li Dingguo, who was still in Huguang, would march so quickly!

Kong Youde was shocked, he thought about how he had been fighting for so many years, how could he be so embarrassed today? Except that he had to cross the river to cast the Qing Emperor Taiji before.

Kong Youde was thinking, in the face of the current situation, he could only sigh, originally wanted to take the initiative to send troops to attack Guizhou first, so as to break up the offensive of Nanming, but he didn't expect Li Dingguo to send troops so quickly, and it appeared in Hunan menacingly.

Hunan was occupied by Li Chengdong before, and then led by Zhang Biwu, Zhang Biwu withdrew and ceded to the Dashun army, the Dashun army had limited troops, and focused on occupying Shaanxi, so there were not many men and horses sent to occupy Hunan, so Shen Yongzhong would lead the troops to take the land of southern Hunan.

Now Li Dingguo sent troops from Yunnan, quickly marched to Guizhou and then detoured to Huguang, breaking Shen Yongzhong, so that Kong Youde had to withdraw his troops in Guizhou and return.

Now that he is sitting in Guilin again, he has to look forward to Qian Guoan and others quickly leading the troops to come! But Kong Youde waited left and right and couldn't wait for their people, what's wrong? Why haven't they come yet?

Good boy! Kong Youde, do you have a nervous problem? You have just fled all the way back to Guilin from Yanguan, how can your reinforcements arrive so quickly?

At this moment, a soldier came to report: "Lord Wang, there is a group of men and horses coming to Guilin!" Kong Youde hurriedly stood up and asked, "Have you come to Guilin?" Is it the army of Admiral Qian Guoan? Or did Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao in Guangdong come to the aid with troops? Walk! I'll have to see it myself! ”

Kong Youde said this, he really strode up to the city. When he saw the dragon flag with the word "Qing" floating, he smiled and said, "Ha Lu Ha! Sure enough, it's reinforcements! Ha Lu Ha! Good! With this army arriving, even if you Li Dingguo and the thieves arrive, you can't help me! ”

Kong Youde shouted: "Give the order to go down and open the city gate!" "Immediately a herald went down.

This army is approaching the city of Guilin at a gallop. Kong Youde was suddenly startled, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he immediately changed the order: "Don't open the city gate!" Catch up with the herald just now! ”

Immediately, someone stuck his head out of the city and shouted, "You can't open the gates!" The prince can't open it if he has an order! "There are also people who immediately chase the herald who gave the order to open the city gates.

At this time, the herald had arrived at the gate of the city, and had just delivered the order, when he heard a shout from the city, and he was not allowed to open the gate. He was stunned, and had no choice but to let the city gate not be allowed.

The gates, which had been opened by a crack, were closed again and again. The guards were all wondering, why did the prince suddenly change his mind? But now that the order had been given, they had no choice but to obey the order and quickly close the door.

The first rider came quickly, and he shouted, "Drink! An arrow quickly shot at Kong Youde under the king's banner.

Kong Youde's pupils widened, and by the time he reacted, it was too late. "Porphyry" Kong Youde received an arrow on his forehead, and he immediately fell. "Lord Wang!" The generals hurriedly stepped forward to support Kong Youde.

Kong Youde knew that when the enemy army first came, the main general was injured, and if he didn't stand up to stabilize the morale of the army, Guilin City would already have few soldiers, and it would be even more difficult to defend it.

Kong Youde immediately stood up and yelled: "I'm fine!" Everyone is ready to fight! The generals around him had no choice but to support Kong Youde.

Someone also stepped forward to help Kong Youde pull out the arrow, Kong Youde could only be supported, and he didn't move, and a sense of despair had hit his heart.

Before Guilin was besieged, he let his son and daughter escape from Lu, which would shake the hearts of the army even more, and everyone knew that their prince had lost confidence in this battle and fell into despair, and the whole army would be infected by pessimism and despair!

Now as soon as the battle was engaged, Kong Youde was shot again, and the morale of the defenders was greatly damaged. (To be continued......)
