The head of Gaoyang City was dead silent, the city walls were mottled and broken, and only the scarlet Ming army battle flag hunted with the wind. Outside the city, the wind is like a knife, and the earth is vast. The camp of the Qing army three miles north of the city galloped to the middle of the city, and Dolgon, the prince of Rui in the big tent of the Chinese army, spread out the letterhead, and after a few cursory glances, his face changed slightly, and he looked up at the soldier who reported the news.

"Ao Bai and Namazik were really killed by the one named Li Xin?"

"It's that brute slave!"

The soldier stopped talking, but Dolgon saw it and knew that he must have not said the whole thing.

"What else? Reported together. ”

"This ...... This ......"

Dolgon couldn't help but be annoyed when he saw him snorting, and snorted coldly. The soldier was frightened and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"General, general, he's blind......"

After listening to the soldier's unbelievable description, Dolgon couldn't help but regret that he didn't keep that Li Xin, this guy is simply a rare ghost. But it's too late to say anything now, and I can only wait for the end of the Gaoyang War to meet that Li Xin, and by the way, I will take it into my pocket. He didn't seem to care about the tragic death of the two generals.

"Go back and hug your general, let him pay more attention to his body, so that he can recuperate and recuperate, Gao Qiqian jumps off the beam clown, don't worry!"

Sending away the messenger sent by Yue Tuo, Dolgon still frowned, looking at the current shape, Gaoyang City can't hold it for a few days, his 30,000 army has been entangled by a small Gaoyang for so long, it has made him very embarrassed, and now any cat or dog dares to come and take advantage of the fire to rob, Dolgon secretly sneered, Discipline you have no return.

In fact, it doesn't matter, as long as he surrounds Gaoyang and does not break, but if the Ming army wants to come and eat two cheap, then he will come to a plan and besiege the city to help, which is exactly the specialty of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry of the Qing Dynasty.

……

On the official road leading from Suning to Lixian, Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong Town, led a team of men and horses to the west in the north wind.

"It's a pity that the heads of Ao Bai and Mazik, you just don't know, these two heads may be exchanged for you in glory and wealth."

Wang Pu was dressed in bright light armor, which was the original outfit of Kong Youde, and this guy no longer wore this thing after he was killed after the battle of the Pigpen River Valley, and he would rather choose a scale armor with much worse protection. This time, when I saw Gao Qiqian, he naturally wanted to make Wang Pu taller, and this Mingguang armor happened to be worn by him, and Wang Pu was also happy.

Li Xin smiled and said nothing, he had a trump card in his hand that was a hundred times more shocking than this, and he still cared about these two kittens and shrimps, not to mention, sending these two heads to the river in order to provoke Yue Tuo and make him lose his reason to maintain restraint. Because he was so big that he would be killed by the enemy, as the commander of an army, if he was still timid in front of the weak enemy, there would be no need to fight this battle, and he would definitely lose the heart of the army.

Therefore, he sent Yue Tuo a big problem, Yue Tuo had to fight if he wanted to, and he had to fight if he didn't want to, which forced him to the point of no return that he had planned for him. The rest depends on whether Gao Qiqian's guy is powerful, and if he takes the river lightly at this time, he will definitely succeed in one blow.

When they reached a place three miles outside the city of Lixian City, Li Xin ordered the whole army to stop advancing. His nearly 1,000 men and horses were for Wang Puzhuang's prestige, but they did not go into the city to send him to death, and the situation in the city is not yet known. Gao Qiqian is not a good man and a woman, and it is very possible to swallow these people at any time, so Li Xin can't be careless.

So he rode alone to report, and in a short time the soldier turned back.

"Let go of the words in the city, and only let Wang Dashuai enter the city alone."

Li Xin was stunned, what trick is this Gao Qiqian playing? The same Ming army was so precautionary. Wang Pu knew very well that when Gao Qiqian heard that he was still alive and came with all the people, he would be surprised and frightened in his heart, but it was difficult to say whether he was more surprised or more afraid in his heart. But one thing can be confirmed, no matter how traitorous he is, once he does something wrong, he will become extremely timid.

Because there is essentially no difference between Wang Pu and this Gao Qiqian, he naturally empathizes with his state of mind at this moment.

"It seems that I have to ride alone to break into this Lixian County."

Li Xin watched Wang Pu's back disappear into the distance, and muttered in his heart, but he didn't know what the result was. He suddenly waved his hand, "Order, retreat three miles and stand by!" ”

Hundreds of cavalry began to roll back, but the scattered probe horses roared in return.

"Teach you, a group of people are coming ahead, and their identities are unknown."

Li Xin was surprised, the large crowd of people who were active here, except for the Qing army and the Ming army, the people had almost fled, who could it be?

The pro-soldier once dared to sharpen his eyes, pointed to the distance and shouted: "Look, it's the villagers!" ”

Li Xin raised his eyes and looked at it, it really looked like, but he couldn't see the faces of people clearly at all, so how did Zeng dare to know that it was the villagers? Looking at Zeng Dare, who was extremely excited, Li Xin suddenly understood that it must be this thing behind his back to trick the people to follow him. scolded in his heart, this product is still not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and he has to teach him a hard lesson another day.

When the team entered, it was indeed the people who did not disperse. One of them saluted with a fist at Li Xin.

"General Li, these people who came here are all homeless and lonely people, all of them are as strong as oxen, I just hope that the general can take us in and avenge our families."

Li Xin took a closer look at these people, and they were really all young and strong. Zeng dared to help on the side:

"General, now is the time to employ people, and we have more strength for more people!"

Li Xin did not want to expand the army, but there was really an unspeakable hidden, and the biggest bottleneck in the expansion of the army was logistics supply, which to put it bluntly was food. Originally, nearly 1,000 people and horses were already facing a shortage of food, looking at these young people in front of him, there were not two thousand but one thousand, where could he get so much food to feed these people?

They are not rogues, and they cannot go anywhere and plunder the land to feed the army.

Moreover, they are all untrained civilians, and they don't even have weapons to take advantage of, so letting them go into battle to kill the enemy is tantamount to sending them to death, so sacrificing so many lives in vain, how can he Li Xin bear it?

But seeing the expectant eyes of the people, Li Xin felt that he could no longer be perfunctory to them, so he categorically refused: "Messing around, go back to protect the villagers, old and young, it is much better than coming to the army to die." ”

Li Xin paused and continued: "It's too late for you to turn back now, go back, and when you get rid of the Tartars in the future, you still have to keep your useful body to rebuild your home." ”

"General Li doesn't look down on us, does he? I don't like us dragging you back! ”

Li Xin sighed, if he had a piece of his own territory at this time, let alone 2,000 people, he would take it even if it was 20,000 people, and the more the merrier. But now the situation is different, he and his men are running for their lives in the cracks of the major Tartar armies, and they will be turned into a hundred miles overnight......

In the midst of the stalemate, a man and a rider suddenly galloped over, it was Wang Pu.

Li Xin didn't care about talking to the people in vain, and went straight to Wang Pu.

"How?"

"Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven!"

Wang Pu sighed, and then stepped up again: "Let's go quickly, I'm afraid it's too late to ......."

Li Xin was shocked, "Why is this?" Is it ......?"

"Exactly, Gao Qiqian is likely to intercept you and me in the army, and if you don't leave at this time, I'm afraid that he will find out the truth ......"

While speaking, Wang Pu saw the people in chaos.

"When did so many people come?"

Immediately, he was extremely dissatisfied and said to Li Xin: "I still made a lot of peace with them, banged away, hurry up, coax children like you, and the people dare to kick their noses in the face one by one!" ”

Li Xin sighed: "The people dare to donate their lives, we can't chill their hearts, since Gao Qiqian refuses to accept this great gift I gave him, we should also change our ways." ”

Then he came to the people who were in a commotion.

"Be quiet!"

"Don't make any noise, General Li has something to say, listen to what General Li has to say......"

The people soon fell silent.

"Since you insist on following me Li Xin, then there is a big deal in front of you, do you dare to do it?"

"Big deal?"

The people were stunned, how could they say that they were like robbers? But it was only stunned for a moment, and then a thousand voices said in unison:

"Dare! Dare! Dare! ”

"Good!"

Wang Pu couldn't keep up with Li Xin's rhythm at all, and he was still trying his best to refuse just now, why did he agree now? The common people are not soldiers, but a group of rabble without the restraint of officers and veterans, and in this dangerous situation, he and Li Xin's understanding is still the same, that is, to implement the policy of elite soldiers, few but strong, run away after fighting, and it is best to be a cavalry that can be transferred to a hundred miles overnight.

And it was this strategy that Li Xin implemented before, and now he says that he will change his course? Wang Pu's net worth at this time fell on Li Xin, if he fled back to the capital like this, Lord Chongzhen might cut off his head in anger, and the best ending would be to push himself to the end. But with Li Xin, there is still hope for a turnaround, to put it bluntly, he uses Li Xin's chicken to lay his own eggs.

He Li Xinyi has no official position, no connections, and a martial artist, if he really rises suddenly, he will inevitably become a thorn in the side of the bigwigs in the DPRK and China, so cooperating with himself is his best choice.

Li Xineng guessed that Wang Puken deigned to stay, and he must have asked for himself, but he didn't expect that his future was not as good as he expected, and it was even full of thorns.

But right now, he's ambitious.

"Wang Dashuai is watching a good show, Li Xin wants to enter Suning three times this time!"

"Suning?"

Back to Suning? Wang Pu was dumbfounded, Li Xin's courage is really big, aren't you afraid of kicking on the iron plate and being eaten by others?

Gao Qi couldn't get on the road, and let the Guanning Iron Cavalry, which had super combat effectiveness, refuse to send troops in Lixian, so he had to do it himself. These two thousand people were charcoal in the snow! Of course, Li Xin did not agree to the people to join the army again, but made other arrangements. The matter of charging into battle, it is enough to have his 600 Gaoyang troops.

Li Xin sneered.

"The Tartars will inevitably send heavy troops to take Suning, and they will definitely think that we have fled far, but we will do the opposite, and come to know that there are tigers in the mountains and go to the tiger mountains!"
