Only a few people in the army knew that Ximen Zhu was in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and other soldiers didn't know that when a soldier was carrying Ximen Zhu, he secretly gave Ximen Zhu a fist, and Ximen Zhu was in pain.

When he was carried into the Chinese army camp by the soldiers and thrown on the ground so hard that he could barely stand up in pain, Ling Jingyang saw that it was him and deliberately shouted at him.

"Ximen Zhu, do you still have a face?"

Ximen Zhu lay on the ground and hummed, Ling Jingyang's subordinates looked at him with horizontal eyebrows, Ximen Zhu got up from the ground and said to Ling Jingyang: "Ling Dudu, the lower officials are ordered to come, even if the two armies are fighting, they will not be killed." ”

Wang Mu pulled Ximen Zhu with one hand, and when he saw Ximen Zhu betraying Ling Jingyang, he scolded angrily: "Who killed you?" ”

Ximen Zhu didn't pay attention to Wang Mu, and looked at Ling Jingyang directly, seeing that Ling Jingyang wanted to laugh in his heart, it was a pity that this Ximen Zhu didn't go to be an actor.

"Lingdu Governor, Your Majesty asked me to bring you a few words, Jiannu is still in the Guannei, I hope that the Governor of the capital will put the common people in the world first, and don't want brothers to kill each other."

Ling Jingyang smashed the cup in his hand towards Ximen Zhu, and then scolded: "Hmph, go back, let Your Majesty send the imperial concubine over, and give my soldiers 500,000 stones of grain and grass to the south." ”

Zhu Youzhen's bottom line for Ximen Zhu was 50,000 stone grain and grass, and Ling Jingyang doubled it tenfold at once, and Ximen Zhu was righteously counterattacking him.

"Lingdu Governor, there are no 500,000 stone grain and grass in the entire Yicheng, Your Majesty has a meritorious service in protecting the country, and I hereby let the lower officials tell Lingdu Governor that tonight the imperial concubine and 50,000 stone grain and grass will all be sent to the north gate."

As soon as these words came out, the entire venue became extremely quiet, no one thought that His Majesty would not only give grain and grass, but also really give the imperial concubine to Ling Jingyang, even if it was Wang Mu and other civil officials, it was incredible, and the woman who occupied the emperor was a big rebellion.

Ling Jingyang squinted his eyes and suddenly said, "Ximen Zhu, who is the imperial concubine?" ”

"The lower officials don't know, the lower officials really don't know."

Ximen Zhu said in one breath that he didn't know, it seemed that he really didn't know, but he also told everyone that he saw Bai Dun in the city and had become the governor of the imperial court, this heavy news made Ling Jingyang sure that the imperial concubine was Bai Lushui, and the killing intent in his eyes was great.

Holding back 100,000 anger, he asked, "Is the imperial concubine Bai Lushui?" ”

Ahh

The faces of the military and Chinese military officials became very angry, and everyone knew that Bai Lushui was Ling Jingyang's daughter-in-law who had not passed the door, and Li Rufeng even pulled out a waist knife and put it on Ximen Zhu's neck.

"Ximen Zhu, did the Dog Emperor snatch the Dudu woman away?"

The old steamed bun also held a fire hammer on the head of Ximen Bamboo, as long as Ling Jingyang nodded, a fire gun smashed Ximen Bamboo's head.

Ling Jingyang shouted violently: "Get out of the way." ”

He personally came to Ximen Zhu with an iron knife, and said softly in his ear: "Go back, let Zhu Youzhen send the white girl, as well as grain and grass outside the city tonight, and let Zhu Youzhen issue a holy decree, the content of which is to order our army to go south to Huguang and recover the lost land." ”

Then kicked open the Ximen bamboo, the Ximen bamboo did not go back to the city, after he left, the generals in the army asked to attack the Yicheng immediately, especially Li Rufeng and Lao Mantou, the two were originally the Dashun army, in the north Zhili has already broken through the capital once, and once again to break through the capital, for them, it is commonplace.

"Old steamed buns, continue to bombard the city wall after dark."

Ling Jingyang issued an order to bombard the army, but stressed not to bombard the soldiers and civilians in the city, the old steamed bun trotted out of the Chinese army camp, came to the artillery camp position, and ordered to continue the bombardment after dark, and the other troops and horses were also ready to break into the city tonight to fight in the streets.

Ling Jingyang's heart was full of guilt, it was all his fault, let Bai Lushui be snatched away by Zhu Youzhen, he held back his anger, as long as Bai Lushui returned tonight, he would let go of the Yicheng Chongzhen Imperial Court, if Zhu Youzhen didn't let Bai Lushui go out of the city, or let others pretend to be Bai Lushui, would he be the same as Wu Sangui, angry and red-faced.

Ximen Zhu returned to the city, the artillery camp had not yet fired, he brought Ling Jingyang's meaning to Zhu Youzhen, Zhu Youzhen heard that Ling Jingyang wanted 500,000 grain and grass, as well as the imperial concubine and the holy decree, he looked up at the starry sky, still hesitating, the sky outside soon darkened, and the artillery camp began to fire at the north city.

The sound of artillery continued for an hour, the north city wall was crumbling, and the kings and ministers of Chongzhen in the city were frightened, and there were 30,000 soldiers in the city, but no one had the courage to resist the attack of the rebels outside the city.

He finally sighed and said to Ximen Zhu: "Go, give Ling Jingyang 60,000 stone grain and grass from the household department." ”

"Your Majesty, what about the Holy Decree and the Imperial Concubine?"

Zhu Youzhen scolded him coldly.

"Dog, is that what you're worried about?"

Ximen Zhu shrank his head down, Zhu Youzhen summoned Wang Chengen again, and asked him to draft a holy decree, and write it according to Ling Jingyang's meaning, Wang Chengen said to him while writing: "Your Majesty, does the imperial concubine really want to give it to him?" ”

"I, go and talk to Concubine Ai, this country is about to collapse, I can't let a woman ruin my Ming Dynasty for three hundred years."

Zhu Youzhen came to the harem, and when the eunuchs and palace maids in the harem saw him coming, they all flashed to the side and let him go to the room where Bai Lushui lived.

Bai Lushui didn't care about the war outside the city, even if Jiannu called, she was just a death, but when she was having dinner today, she heard a palace maid muttering in a low voice, she seemed to hear the name of the governor of the five armies, she became inexplicably excited in her heart, and asked the palace maid who spoke to her room, the palace maid was timid, Bai Lushui asked her anything, and said anything.

From the mouth of the palace maid, Bai Lushui heard Ling Jingyang's name, and also knew that Ling Jingyang led the army to Yicheng, and asked His Majesty to return her to him, and her heart melted in heaven and earth.

But she didn't dare to see Ling Jingyang, she had been hidden in the harem by His Majesty for so long, in the eyes of outsiders, she was not innocent for a long time, she was not worthy of her Ling Jingyang, she endured the pain in her heart, from afternoon to evening, she seemed to have lost her soul, and she seemed to have no soul, and she didn't eat or drink in the room in a daze.

Zhu Youzhen came to her room and knocked lightly, she turned her head suddenly, thinking that it was Ling Jingyang, but it was Zhu Youzhen in front of her, tears overflowed her eyes, Zhu Youzhen was also a little painful, she couldn't bear to see Bai Lushui with tears in her eyes, and said to her: "Bai girl, tonight you go out of the city with grain and grass, I will take you.. Return it to Ling Jingyang. ”

To Zhu Youzhen's surprise, he thought Bai Lushui was happy to break his tears, but Bai Lushui shook his head in pain, she didn't have the face to see Ling Jingyang, which made Zhu Youzhen angry, he didn't want to bury the revival of the Ming Dynasty because of a woman, he coldly let Bai Lushui get out and reunite with the crazy man.

Bai Lushui couldn't live or die, she didn't dare to see her beloved Lang Jun, and she didn't want to see other people's gossip, she lost her innocence, Zhu Youzhen asked the palace maid and the eunuch to drag Bai Lushui out, and threw Bai Lushui's daily necessities out together, all of which were given to Ling Jingyang, so that this madman would get far away.

Bai Lushui, who was dragged away by the palace maid and the eunuch, suddenly let out today's roar, which frightened Zhu Youzhen's heart and liver, how could this woman be so fierce, he called Jinyiwei in disgust, blocked Bai Lushui's mouth, and then tied it to the grain cart and sent it to the north of the city tonight.

Soon at night, the grain and grass in the city were carried outside the city by the soldiers, and in less than half of the night, there was a large pile of grain and grass outside the city, Ling Jingyang ordered the whole army to light torches, and the grain and grass outside the city were piled up on a hill high, but the people he was waiting for had not yet come.

Zhu Youzhen looked at the rebels under the city on the city wall, and a monstrous killing intent surged in his heart, if it weren't for the army's combat effectiveness, he would have ordered Ling Jingyang to be destroyed, he helplessly asked Mei Shifeng, how long will it take for Wu Dading to withdraw?

Mei Shifeng thought for a while and replied that it would take him at least five days to return to Yicheng.

"Waste, a bunch of waste, I've raised a bunch of waste soldiers."

Zhu Youzhen scolded Mei Shifeng, Lin Erle and other generals did not dare to raise their heads, he looked at the last grain truck under the city, with Bai Lushui tied to it, but surprisingly, Bai Lushui was stuffed on his chest, this is Zhu Youzhen deliberately stuffed the holy decree on Bai Lushui's chest, and he had to be disgusted to listen to Jingyang once before leaving.

The last grain truck left the city, and Zhu Youzhen ordered the city gate to be closed to prevent the rebels from continuing to attack the city.

Outside the city, Ling Jingyang finally saw his beloved, he ignored Wen Yuanyang's jealousy, and led his subordinates to the grain truck, and saw Bai Lushui's eyes closed, tied to the car, and a holy decree stuffed on his chest, Ling Jingyang exploded in an instant.

"Old steamed buns."

"The end will be."

"Boom, boom to Lao Tzu, boom flat Yicheng."

Ling Jingyang took Bai Lushui off the car, Lao Mantou and other soldiers also saw Bai Lushui being humiliated, and their scalps were numb with anger, Lao Mantou personally lit the fire, and dozens of large and small artillery guns bombarded the north gate, and they were about to knock down the north gate.

The Ming army and civilians in the city were frightened, Zhu Youzhen regretted that he shouldn't humiliate Ling Jingyang like this, he had already succumbed, why did he do this?

The north gate city wall was finally knocked down, Ling Jingyang's big hand was raised in the air, the whole army raised their weapons, waiting for the order to charge, Ling Jingyang waved his right hand in the air, and was dragged by another pair of hands.

Ling Jingyang looked at it, it was Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuan was his staff, Ling Jingyang attacked Yicheng, he thought it was a show, and he didn't know Bai Lushui, but now it seems that Ling Jingyang is determined to attack Yicheng and eliminate the Chongzhen court, doesn't this make Jiannu laugh off his big teeth?

"Listen to the governor, the love of children is important, but the general trend of the world is even more important."

"Zhou Yuan, do you know who she is?"

"The lower officials don't know, but the lower officials know that the governor broke the Yicheng tonight, and tomorrow the world will be in an uproar, and the governor has done something that Jiannu did not succeed in, and Jiannu may reward the governor with a three-character king."

A word woke up the dreamer, so that Ling Jingyang woke up from extreme anger, he and the generals ordered, bring the grain and grass back to the army, and sent 5,000 stone of grain and grass to He Zhen's department, the whole army will not camp tonight, and go all out to Henan.

The army outside the city left suddenly, and the Chongzhen monarchs and ministers in the Yicheng seemed to have walked around from the ghost gate, and Zhu Youzhen asked Mei Shifeng to lead the light cavalry and follow behind the rebels to prevent the rebels from killing a horse gun, and asked the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to organize people to repair the city wall.

Mei Shifeng led two hundred light cavalry out of the city, far behind Ling Jingyang's team, Li Rufeng led the palace behind, saw the Ming army in the city behind, please ask Ling Jingyang to ambush the Ming army?

Ling Jingyang asked him to give the Ming army a lesson, so that the Ming army did not dare to follow behind, and got Ling Jingyang's approval, Li Rufeng led the troops to set up an ambush, and waited for Mei Shifeng to lead the troops into the encirclement, Li Rufeng led the troops to launch a surprise attack, and Mei Shifeng fled in the wilderness, two hundred light cavalry were killed dozens of people, more than 70 people were captured, and the remaining cavalry and he Mei Shifeng fled in the wilderness.

The captured Ming soldiers were forcibly taken by Li Rufeng to hurry, and those who were unwilling to follow the large army were ordered to be beheaded than Li Rufeng, and the big sword was brightened, and the prisoners followed the team, and after dawn the next day, Ling Jingyang scattered these cavalry and scattered them to various departments.

It was not far from Yicheng to Henan, and it took seven days for this army to finally arrive at Huaiqing Mansion, along the way, Ling Jingyang took care of Bai Lushui, but Bai Lushui was like a dead person, no matter what Ling Jingyang said, she didn't say a word.

Ling Jingyang's heart melted, he hated himself for not protecting Bai Lushui, he decided to find a station in Huaiqing Mansion and recuperate here for a few days to let Bai Lu regain his mood.

The army entered Huaiqing Mansion, and the forward found army activities in Huaiqing Mansion, and the city was also garrisoned by troops, Ling Jingyang saw that Huaiqing Mansion was garrisoned by troops, so Gao Ding and the Special Bureau went in together to collect intelligence.

The Special Bureau infiltrated Huaiqing Mansion three days ago, but it was also unfamiliar with the place here, and the number of people was small, and in the face of more than 50 scouts from the enemy, the Special Bureau did not dare to operate during the day, and when Gao Ding led the troops to Huaiqing Mansion, the Special Bureau could finally let go of its hands and feet to collect intelligence.

With the help of the Special Bureau, Gao Ding obtained a lot of first-hand information, and he rushed back to report to Ling Jingyang that the garrison of Huaiqing Mansion turned out to be the Dashun Army?

Love to read

Ling Jingyang's eyes blinked, he didn't expect that there would be a Dashun army in Huaiqing Mansion, he took the troops to Qinyuan City, the largest city in Huaiqing Mansion, Qinyuan City, there was a Dashun army stationed, this army was Li Guo's subordinates, but most of the soldiers were stragglers gathered by Li Guo in Henan.

Li Guo happened to be in Qinyuan City, he heard that there was a Ming army to Qinyuan City to kill, thinking that the Ming army of Pingyang Mansion had rebelled, and wanted to annihilate his lone army with the Great Western Army, and when the Ming army arrived in the city, he saw that it was Ling Jingyang.

He ordered the city gate to be opened to welcome Ling Jingyang into the city, and Ling Jingyang also felt that the world was very small, and he reunited with Li Guo in Qinyuan City.

The army entered Qinyuan City one after another, Ling Jingyang finally knew why Li Guo was in Qinyuan City, dozens of days ago, Li Guo led the light cavalry to Yicheng and asked to meet with Zhu Youzhen, Zhu Youzhen wanted to kill Li Guo and other Dashun troops, but he still held back after thinking about it, let Li Guo enter the city, and personally met Li Guo.

Li Guo told him that the Great Western Army monopolized the three provinces of Henan, so that not only blocked the Great Shun Army, but also put the Chongzhen Imperial Court at the forefront of the battle with the Qing Army.

Because Zhu Youzhen's troops were insufficient, he gave Li Guo grain, grass and people's husbands, and asked Li to go to Henan to recruit troops and horses.

Li Guo took the people and grain and grass to Henan, with 300 light cavalry as the team, recruited 7,000 troops, and stationed in Huaiqing Mansion, and at this time the forward troops of the Great Western Army had arrived in Ruzhou, and then Nanyang Mansion.
