"Lord Wang, it's not good for you to do this!" The prefect of Nanyang stood on the tower of the city of Fucheng, and said helplessly to Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang.

We already know that since the rebellion of King Ning during the Zhengde period, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty and their families were not allowed to leave the city where they were vassal. The first duty of the magistrates in the city was to guard the vassal king and his family.

But there is a conventional rule here, those vassal kings can go up to the city wall where they are located to see the scenery, but what do you want to do on the city wall? Then it will be blocked.

"What? For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, what is wrong with this king here? Is this king out of the city? Tang King Zhu Yujian replied without showing weakness.

When he learned that Nanyang Mansion was in danger again, Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang, resolutely took out the grain and silver from the palace, recruited soldiers in the palace, and prepared to defend the city. Because there were many Nanyang refugees who hid in the city, King Tang successfully recruited more than 800 people, plus the guards of the palace, King Tang had more than 1,000 soldiers.

In this regard, the prefect of Nanyang is happy to see it, and now in order to ensure that the city is not lost, it is haode to be able to have a little more liliang. Although the recruitment of the Tang King was a little irregular, as long as those soldiers were active in the city, and after the safety of Nanyang Mansion City, those recruited soldiers were dispersed as soon as possible, then there would be no sequelae.

When Zhang Xianzhong's partial division rushed to Fucheng, because it was just to fake a shot and cover Zhang Xianzhong's main force to pass through Nanyang smoothly and enter Huguang, this partial division was a little loose. Seeing that the Ming army in the city did not dare to go out of the city, they boldly went to the houses around the city and searched for the belongings in the houses.

Seeing that the peasant army outside the city was so tired and not ready for battle at all, Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang, who went to the city tower to observe the enemy's situation, was moved, and he proposed to the prefect of Nanyang and General Sun Wei and Sun Wei: Go out of the city to fight the peasant army by surprise.

The peasant army has come and gone so many times in Nanyang Province. After passing through Fucheng several times, the prefect of Nanyang and Sun Wei, who were in danger, had already been frightened. Of course, they didn't dare to go out of the city, so they used the phrase "It's hard to attack with few soldiers!" The reason politely rejected Zhu Yujian.

So Zhu Yujian took the opportunity to propose that the soldiers he recruited go out of the city to fight, anyway, if the battle was defeated, the loss would not be the Ming army that originally defended the city. In this regard, Sun Wei was noncommittal, and although the prefect of Nanyang was somewhat opposed, he couldn't say any reason for opposition, because after all, the Ming army in the city did not dare to attack!

In this way, the five hundred elites who were carefully selected went out of the city to attack under the leadership of the leader of the palace guards. The sneak attack went well. Because the Tang King is good at martial arts, his guard is not an honor guard like the guards of other vassal kings, but has a strong physique and real talents.

But in the battle, Tang Wang was so excited that he shouted on the city wall, directing his sneak attack troops. This made the Nanyang prefect a little nervous. Because watching the battle from the castle tower and commanding from the castle tower are completely two different concepts. But under Zhu Yujian's strong words, the prefect of Nanyang still opened his eyes and closed his eyes.

This indulgence of the prefect of Nanyang and Sun Wei. But it laid a foreshadowing for Tang King Zhu Yujian's future behavior. Because the rules were broken for the first time. That will surely break the second one. But that's a few months away, so I won't talk about it for now.

Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty, went out of the city to attack this time, and the results were not very large, but he killed and wounded hundreds of peasant soldiers. However, the peasant army that was attacked fled from Nanyang Mansion in panic. After all, they came to shoot a false shot, so they were attacked by a sneak attack. thought that his intentions had been seen through by the Ming army, so he hurriedly withdrew his troops to prevent the Ming army in the city of Nanyang from attacking.

After that, it was the dazzling performance of the peasant army.

Let's talk about Zhang Xianzhong's department first. After he discovered the movement of the Ming army in Nanyang Fucheng, he did not dare to venture south into Huguang, and turned to the northeast. Forced into the city of Ruzhou again. And this change of direction first caught Lu Xiangsheng and Zu Kuanbu, who were following the pursuit, off guard, and hurriedly turned around and pursued. Hearing that Ruzhou City was in danger, Yu Zilian's Ruzhou Army also hurriedly marched back to Ruzhou, and even the Zhou Patrol Department in Ye County also left Ye County with He Fei's rotation training corps and Xue Yong's Nanyang Legion, which had been prepared for a long time, and drove to Ruzhou City to rescue, which can be said to have completely mobilized the Ming army in the southwest of Henan.

Seeing that the Ming army was mobilized, Zhang Xianzhong's troops immediately turned to the northwest again, entered Henan Mansion, and approached behind Zuo Liangyu's department. Seeing that the crisis in Ruzhou City was resolved, the Runing army led by Zhou Xun temporarily stopped its operation, but Yu Zilian's Ruzhou army was afraid that his hometown would be lost, so he still rushed back to Ruzhou City.

And the peasant army on the border of Henan has actually already divided its troops. After the old Hui Hui Ma Shouying Department joined Gao Yingxiang's department, he immediately returned to Shaanxi, leaving only Gao Yingxiang's department to attract the attention of the Ming army.

After Ma Shouying returned to Shaanxi, he united with the 13 battalions of the large and small peasant armies that stayed in Shaanxi, marched out of Tongguan and marched eastward, and suddenly appeared in Henan again. And Lu Xiangsheng and Zu Kuanbu, who learned of this situation, immediately turned back again to block this peasant army. The Runing Army of Zhou Xun also immediately returned to Yexian County to prevent the peasant army from breaking through Lu Xiangsheng and Zu Kuanbu and entering the control area of the Runing Army.

And Li Zicheng's department, which originally stayed in Shaanxi, broke away from the entanglement of Hong Chengchou's department, fought Weinan and Lintong, crossed the Huayin Nanyuan Ridge in the east, and went out of Zhuyang Pass. After getting the convergence of Li Zicheng, Gao Yingxiang moved again and broke into Henan.

And such a move made Zuo Liangyu's army immediately become a lone army, and he would face the attack of the three strongest peasant armies. So in Minxiang, Henan, a big war began.

But before introducing the battle, let's take a look at the actions of the two Ming armies. After Yu Zilian's Ruzhou army rushed back to Ruzhou, he only rested for one day and followed Zhang Xianzhong's troops.

And Chen Zhongzhi and Jiang Chengbu, who have been watching from the wall, first of all, Nanyang Mansion was in danger and wanted to rush to the rescue; But they didn't walk long, but they heard that Ruzhou City was in danger, and they rushed to Ruzhou City again; Later, I heard that the crisis in Ruzhou City was lifted, and a large number of peasant troops came in the direction of Tongguan, and they rushed to Tongguan again. It really smells like a war and a Tetris.

But after another day, an order came from Governor Lu Xiangsheng to rescue Zuo Liangyu. Lu Xiangsheng had actually discovered Zuo Liangyu's danger from the development of the battle situation, but his Tianxiong army and Zu Kuan's Liao army wanted to block Ma Shouying's thirteenth battalion heading for Huguang. Therefore, at this time, only the nearest Chen Zhongzhi and Jiang Cheng can be mobilized.

Of course, Chen Zhongzhi and Jiang Cheng didn't dare to disobey the order, but at this time, they had already turned into angry birds. (To be continued......)
