When Li Daoli gathered troops and horses at Heishiling, he heard that the defenders of Yanmen Pass were fighting fiercely with the Qing army, and he didn't know what the battle situation was, whether the defenders were holding Yanmen Pass, or were they captured by the enemy? He didn't know anything, but he knew that if the army rashly went to Yanmen Pass, he was afraid that it would be raided by the enemy.

He and Li Rufeng said: "You are resting in the city, and I will let people go to Yanmen Pass to have a look." ”

Li Rufeng was tired of traveling all the way, and really needed to rest, and the old steamed bun and others rested in the city, Li Daoli asked Ma Kai to take dozens of cavalry to Yanmen Pass in person, and he led the troops to meet Li Guo and other soldiers in the rear battalion.

Under the leadership of Zhang Neng, the rear battalion forwards arrived in Wei County early the next morning, Li Daoli had already brought a thousand soldiers to greet their arrival here, Zhang Neng thought it was a rebel army at first, and fought an ambush here, startling him, and when he got closer, it turned out to be the flag of the middle battalion troops.

After a while, Li Daoli came to visit with his generals, Li Daoli is a captain, in front of Zhang Neng, the second-in-command of the rear camp, he is as well-behaved as a cat, Zhang Neng didn't trust Li Daoli at first, because there were rebels all the way, how did he get to Wei County, but it was the middle camp?

In the face of Zhang Neng's distrust, Li Daoli was not ambiguous, and said to Zhang Neng: "General Zhang, the last general was also entrusted by a friend to come to Wei County to help his friend do some things, I don't want the Wei County garrison to be killed by the rebels, the last general survived by luck, and hid in Heishiling with the remnants of the defeated general, and our soldiers and horses are also regrouped, and please don't question the last general's heart." ”

Zhang Neng did not bring many cavalry, and they were all light cavalry, and if he was deceived into the city, he would be devastated, he had led the troops for many years, and he would not be moved by Li Daoli's words, but said to Li Daoli: "Your troops and horses go out of the city, and my troops and horses enter the city, and when the general arrives, I will report everything you have done for the rear camp with General Li, and naturally there will be a heavy reward." ”

Li Daoli also had no choice, led his subordinates back to the city in front, shouted troops out of the city under the city, the soldiers of the Dashun Army in the city hurriedly came out of the city, and his subordinates came out with the cavalry battalion, Zhang Neng saw that the banner of the cavalry battalion was a little familiar, so he said to Li Daoli: "Those who are riding horses, which unit is it?" ”

"General Hui, that is Li Rufeng, the general of the last general's friend Ling Jingyang, arrived in Wei County last night and rested in the city."

Zhang Neng raised his eyebrows, thinking that this Ling Jingyang really had some ability, and he actually arrived in Wei County before them, Li Rufeng and other cavalry battalions were here, and there was no need for him to unify Li Daoli, and said to him: "Li Daoli, yes, I blamed you." ”

Li Daoli was very aggrieved in his heart, Zhang Neng saw a look of grievance, and smiled with him: "Li Daoli, when I see General Li, I recommend you to be the right mighty general." ”

Right mighty general, Li Daoli's eyes lit up, this is a general, one level higher than him, he looked at Zhang Neng gratefully, Zhang Neng smiled with him, and took the troops into the city to rest.

Li Daoli also entered the city with him, and the soldiers rested in the city for a morning, and at noon, Li Guo led the main force of the rear battalion to arrive at the county seat of Wei County, and was ceremoniously received by Li Daoli, and all the chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep in the city were slaughtered to entertain the soldiers of the rear battalion.

Zhang Neng also talked to Li Guo about Li Daoli's achievements in Wei County, after Li Guo heard it, he praised it very much, he had already had an idea, that is, to improve the strength of the rear battalion, seeing that Li Daoli was powerful and powerful, and he was also a lieutenant in the Chinese army before, so he had the intention to win over Li Daoli, Zhang Neng and he recommended Li Daoli as the right mighty general, and the meaning was also very clear, and he wanted Li Daoli and his subordinates to become the rear battalion troops.

Li Guo nodded, and said to Li Daoli: "Li Daoli, you did a good job this time, whatever reward you want, this general will satisfy you." ”

Li Daoli was thinking about the right mighty general, but he was embarrassed to speak, he looked at Zhang Neng, Zhang Neng understood his heart, and said to Li Guo: "General, I think that Li Duwei is a talent, and the position of the right mighty general in our army is vacant, and the last general thinks that Li Duwei can do it." ”

Li Guo deliberately pretended to be contemplative, Li Daoli looked through the autumn water, how eager to see Li Guo nodded, let him serve as the right mighty general, Li Guo closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes to look at Li Daoli, and said: "Li Daoli, this general promoted you to be the right mighty general of my rear camp, I hope you will live up to expectations, bravely kill the enemy, and strengthen my Dashun army." ”

"The last will obey."

Li Daoli gladly accepted the appointment and became the right mighty general of the rear battalion, not only that, Li Guo also had a plan, that is, to merge the entire army of the stone battalion into the rear battalion, and he also gave Ling Jingyang a suitable position, that is, the left mighty general of the rear battalion, as long as Ling Jingyang agreed to become the general of the rear battalion, the strength of the rear battalion would be multiplied.

He and Li Daoli talked about Ling Jingyang and his stone camp behind him, and the food in this city should also be reserved for Ling Jingyang's people, there are thousands of people in the stone camp, don't eat it all, let them go hungry.

Li Daoli should come down excitedly, in the afternoon, Ling Jingyang led the stone camp to arrive in Wei County, which has long been the back camp ocean, the stone camp entered the city, and was also warmly received, Ling Jingyang was on the way to come, Li Rufeng had already reported the intelligence of Wei County with him, and the old steamed bun and Wen Bu also returned to the army, although the task was not completed, but in the end Li Daoli converged, Ling Jingyang did not look at the two coldly, so that the two followed to Wei County.

In the city, Li Daoli and Ling Jingyang hugged each other tightly, Li Daoli and Ling Jingyang showed off, he is now the right mighty general of the rear camp, Ling Jingyang's eyes widened, looked at Li Daoli incredulously, and said: "Li Daoli, you have become the right mighty general of the rear camp?" ”

Not only Ling Jingyang, but also Wan Liyun, who is also a captain, is also full of envy, Li Daoli raised his head high, like a little rooster, very prominent, Ling Jingyang thought, is this Li Guo buying Li Daoli?

The two wanted to continue talking, but Zhang Neng came to the two with his own soldiers and said that General Li was invited tonight, and the two of them were invited to the banquet tonight.

Li Daoli nodded busily, Ling Jingyang also bowed his head, and said yes, after Zhang Neng passed the word, he asked Li Daoli again, how long will it take for the scouts who went to Yanmen Pass to come back?

There is a distance of more than 200 kilometers from Wei County to Yanmen Pass, Li Daoli asked Ma Kai to rush over with cavalry, one person and three horses, he can run 100 kilometers a day, and it takes five days to go back and forth, this is already the limit, and people and horses can't stand it when they run down.

Zhang Neng was silent for a while, and instructed Li Daoli that the destination of the army was Yanmen Pass, and it was only a temporary rest in Wei County, and after five days, regardless of whether the scouts came back or not, the whole army would go to Yanmen Pass.

Li Daoli was a little stunned, he didn't want to give up Wei County: "General, what about this Wei County?" ”

"Your Majesty has an order, the rear camp should form a new defense line at Yanmen Pass to block the attack of the rebels and the Qing army, and the people of this Wei County will also retreat together, you are ready to retreat these days, don't forget, General Li is invited to the barracks tonight."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Neng left with his own soldiers, Ling Jingyang and Li Guo looked at each other, I don't know what kind of medicine Li Guo sells in the gourd?

Ling Jingyang and Li Daoli talked about his subordinates in Shiying, there were more than 100 people, Li Daoli waved his hand generously, those subordinates were the stragglers he gathered in Ling Jingyang's army, they were originally Ling Jingyang's subordinates, he already had more than 2,000 soldiers, and there were more than 100 people, so it was better to give favors and return to Ling Jingyang's troops.

Li Daoli and Ling Jingyang said that after he arrived in Shanxi, he contacted his friend Ma Kai here, but soon after, a rebellion broke out here, and that night he and Ma Kai were not in Wei County, recruiting troops in the nearby countryside to avoid being killed by the rebels.

When they returned to Wei County with dozens of people the next day, they saw a row of corpses hanging on the city wall outside the city, and the rebels in the city shouted loudly.

Frightened, he and Ma Kai did not dare to return to Wei County, and led their subordinates to Heishiling, gathering hundreds of scattered Dashun army soldiers on the road, these soldiers were the main force in Li Daoli's army, and the rebels were powerful, and everyone was forced to lurk in Heishiling.

And because the rebels attacked many people who supported the Dashun army in various places, and the people of Ulzhou were also killed in a river of blood, Li Daoli felt that these people were available, so he recruited troops and horses in Heishiling, gathered the displaced people, and in half a month, he gathered more than 3,000 people, if it wasn't for a bloody battle with the rebels from Datong Mansion under the city of Ul County, he would have more subordinates.

Ling Jingyang also sighed that Li Daoli had a big life, he did not die in the Battle of Shanhaiguan, and he also survived in Wei County, but Li Daoli and Ling Jingyang talked about this Wei County garrison, which was a garrison called Murong Tu, which could be regarded as a good man, but unfortunately it could not be used by him.

"What's wrong, and your big hero Li Daoli can't subdue?"

Li Daoli is still a pity, if Murong Tu becomes his general, he will have a general who can fight the Qing army to the end, and he can also use Murong Tu to recruit more Ming troops, but unfortunately this person is not in Dashun, after listening to it, Ling Jingyang felt that Li Daoli was very humane, and said to him: "You are so good-hearted." ”

"No, but I hate these rebels, my brother was raided by the rebels, life and death are unknown, if I find out which rebel raided my brother, Lao Tzu swears that he must chop these miscellaneous pieces."

Ling Jingyang thought of Li Daoli's brother Li Daowei, and Zhang Shun, the head of the department, the two of them didn't say anything to him, Zhang Shun was his guide, and he promoted him to the head of the post when they met for the first time, so that he could find a foothold in the capital, and also brought Zhu Youzhen and Wang Chengen to the nose of Dashun Army, saving the lives of the two.

Li Daowei wanted to win over Ling Jingyang, but was rejected by Ling Jingyang, and he couldn't win over, and he didn't become angry, but gave Ling Jingyang a good Kaiyuan bow and encouraged Ling Jingyang to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.

He had a sour nose, these two people are good people, if they die at the hands of the rebels, it will be a pity, even more pity than that Murong Tu, but now is not the time to be sad, he and Li Daoli talked about the next plan: "Dao Li, your enemy is my enemy, but we have to look far ahead, we can't limit ourselves to this." ”
