Chapter Fifty-Seven: Taking Yuzhong City

As the minutes passed, the kingdom's face became more and more ugly, and when the two henchmen were solved, they still did not wait for their entourage to get the desired result.

At this moment, the kingdom sat down in a dejected seat, with a dead face, completely dead, and muttered: "It seems that you have long thought of this day, and rebelled on this day, right?" ”

Li Zicheng smiled faintly and did not answer, there was some impatience in his words: "General Wang, you are already a prisoner of the ranks, don't report any more illusions, no one can save you." ”

After a pause, the words changed, and he said sonorously: "You might as well open the skylight and say something bright, and don't hide it from you, General Wang, you will definitely not live." However, as long as you cooperate with our actions and give full play to your last trace of residual heat, we will help those Yuzhong City to take over Nandaying smoothly. I can assure you that your family will not be harmed, and your loved ones will never be harmed. ”

As soon as these words came out, he reminded the kingdom and relieved him from despair, but he still looked weak: "Okay, I promise you." I hope that you will look at the past and promote you to the general manager, so that you can keep your promise and not affect my family. ”

"Of course~"

Li Zicheng agreed, and at this time, several soldiers walked in from outside, went straight to the two corpses, and pulled them out.

At noon, under the scorching sun, when the sun is the most poisonous, the crisp cicadas squeak and squeak, adding a bit of heat to this summer day.

The north gate of Yuzhong City was wide open, and from time to time there were people coming and going, and the soldiers on the city wall had long since disappeared, and they all hid in the corridor of the cave gate, looking listless, or sleeping with a spear, or leaning against the wall, drowsy again and again, as if they were turning a blind eye to the passers-by, and they were very lazy.

At this moment, a group of people and horses came in the distance, with a sedan chair in the middle, walking slowly, followed by dozens of cavalry, guarding safety. The person at the head, the front guard on horseback was none other than Li Zicheng.

At this time, Li was dressed as a soldier, wearing the uniform of the kingdom's bodyguards. Not to mention, among this group of people, except for the kingdom in the sedan chair, everyone else was a soldier of the Beida battalion.

As he got closer and closer to the city gate, Li Zicheng began to give orders, emphasizing again: "After waiting for a while, try not to make a big movement as much as possible, and it is best to capture those soldiers alive." Be careful not to show your feet and act according to my eyes. ”

"Yes, put the total ~"

Several small flags around responded one after another, hissing like mosquitoes, and the chirping that they didn't know was loud.

Pedal, pedal, pedal...

Stomp Tread...

People walked and stepped on horses, after all, there were many people, and in the end, they still disturbed the soldiers guarding the city gate, woke up from sleep, their eyes narrowed slightly, and they didn't carefully observe the appearance of Li Zicheng and others, but they immediately recognized the sedan chair of the kingdom, and couldn't help urging: "Hurry up, wake up~ Wake up, Wang Sen will come back from Beidaying!" ”

As if stung by a wasp, everyone sobered up, stood up stubbornly, stood on both sides, put up in a queue, and was in great spirits to welcome the arrival of Wang Guo and others, with a look of welcome and flattery, not realizing the arrival of danger at all, the disguise of Li Zicheng and others.

"See the general!"

The soldiers guarding the city gate shouted, and the approaching procession did not stop, but the indifferent voice of the kingdom came from the palanquin: "Alright, get up." Get out of the way, the general still has to enter the city, and there is something important to discuss with the magistrate. ”

"Yes, General!" The gatekeepers agreed, and they all got out of the way, leaning against the edge of the wall.

In just a breath, the vanguard of the team walked into the gate and walked slowly, vaguely, the bodies of these soldiers tensed, and their eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.

"Action!"

Li Zicheng's low roar just sounded, and the soldiers guarding the city gate had not yet reacted, and they didn't know what was going on, so the vanguard immediately took action, like a running cheetah hunting prey, and rushed towards the nearest gate guard, the movement in his hand was even faster, he drew out the saber on his waist, and when he came to the side of the officer and soldier guarding the gate, the steel knife in his hand was just on the neck of the other party, and his eyes were cold, forcing him to look at the person in front of him.

The whole action is done in one go, and it will never take more than three seconds!

In an instant, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate were dumbfounded, their faces showed disbelief, and they said in a pitted manner: "Brother, brother, my own people, don't get me wrong, they are all soldiers under General Wang Counselor, and we are from the Nanda Battalion!" ”

All the gatekeepers were frightened, sweating coldly, and their legs and stomachs were cramping. Especially the feeling coming from the neck, the coldness and murderous intent of the blade against the throat, made them dare not move, almost a neurotic reaction, their hands opened, put down their weapons, and raised them above their heads, for fear that a trace of superfluous movements would cause misunderstandings.

The atmosphere suddenly rose and became extremely tense, and the pedestrians who came from afar were so frightened that they hurriedly left when they saw this scene.

Riding his horse, Li Zicheng walked out of the cavalry, Shi Shiran looked at the subdued gatekeepers, and said calmly: "Tie them up and throw them on the city wall." Immediately send a signal for Li Guo and the centurion to follow. ”

"Yes, put the total!"

Immediately, the soldiers of the northern battalion took action one after another, grabbed the soldiers guarding the gate and walked towards the city wall, and tied their hands and feet.

At the same time, a soldier holding two small flags, ran quickly, went straight to the city gate, stood on the highest point, facing north, stood straight, and began to wave the two small flags in his hand, expressing the flag language.

Soon, a few miles away from the city gates, the sky was full of dust, and a flock of birds flew around, chirping, and circling. Soon, in the midst of the sound of rumbling war horses galloping, a cavalry came at a rapid pace, and in the blink of an eye, the leader was Li Guo.

In the dust, faintly visible, there is an infantry following closely, running, neatly lined up, between the marches, wrapped in a fierce momentum, that is the unique military might of soldiers, resolute and resolute, like a thunderbolt.

Five minutes later, Li Guo roared with the cavalry, came to Li Zicheng's side, and just wanted to turn over and dismount, he heard Li Zicheng's order: "Don't stop, all the cavalry act immediately, divide the troops into two ways, and seize control of the south gate and the east gate." and shut the gates of the city, so that no one could enter or leave. ”

"Yes, Boss!" Li Guo and the two centurions replied in unison, the reins in their hands moved, and as soon as their legs clamped the horse's belly, the war horse immediately galloped, like an arrow off the string, flying out.

It seems that there has been an agreement for a long time, as soon as the two hundred cavalry ran to the crossroads, they immediately divided into two roads, Li Guo took the centurion Wu Ruyi straight to the south gate, the speed was getting faster and faster, and the other route was led by Liu Fangliang, and went straight to the east gate, rampage all the way, provoking passers-by to get out of the way, and they were afraid, but they also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.

Ten minutes later, centurion Tian Jianxiu and Yuan Zongdi ran over, sweating profusely, the armor on their bodies clicked, and the remaining 200 infantry of the Nanda Battalion also came to the north gate and gathered next to Li Zicheng.

As soon as he stood still, Li Zicheng couldn't wait to order: "Yuan Zongdi, you take a hundred people to the west gate quickly, after gaining control, leave dozens of people to guard the west gate, close the city gate, and then go to the Zhixian Yamen to meet with me." ”

"Yes, put the total!"

Yuan Zongdi agreed, and then ordered his hundred-person team and went straight to the north gate of Yuzhong City.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zicheng looked directly at Tian Jianxiu, and said loudly: "Tian Jianxiu, you are responsible for confiscating and sealing the various treasury and granaries in Yuzhong County, leaving enough personnel to guard them, and when Yuzhong County is completely controlled, we will distribute the silver taels in the treasury and the grain in the warehouse." ”

"Yes, the general, his subordinates will select the most capable and reliable soldiers, who will be responsible for guarding the two places of the treasury and the granary, so as to avoid looting."

Tian Jianxiu's words later made Li Zicheng very satisfied. At this time, in the era of natural and man-made disasters, money and food are extremely important and tempting. As long as the will is slightly weak, there will be a robbery.

This thought flashed through his mind, Li Zicheng nodded with satisfaction, and his tone became much softer: "Okay, let's go~!" After dealing with it, we will also meet at the county yamen. ”

"Okay, boss, I'll go first." Tian Mixiu smiled in return, and then left with a hundred people.

Immediately, Li Zicheng did not stay, and after arranging for someone to guard the north gate, he left with the kingdom and went straight to a certain direction.

At this moment, the kingdom has already walked out of the sedan chair, looking at the scene in front of him, all the things just now, and he knows: "It's over, everything is over, there is no possibility of turning the tables." ”

The kingdom's heart was both shocked and regretful, but he didn't expect that Li Zicheng was not only a good leader in leading troops, but also a general, and his future was limitless. Thinking of this, the kingdom really wanted to hit the wall headlong, just because the Gao family's father and son had a lot of what they didn't have, not only offended Li Zicheng to death, but also took this little life.

There is no regret medicine in the world, and the kingdom can only follow Li Zicheng's side and behave as much as possible, hoping that this "little guard" can let himself go.

Gradually, a group of dozens of people disappeared into the streets.
