January 21, the twelfth year of Chongzhen, night.

Lu Xiangsheng led the army to attack Du Du's camp at night, but Du Du did not expect Lu Xiangsheng to be so decisive, defeated and lost.

The loss of 2,000 troops did not stop Lu Xiangsheng's army, and Lu Xiangsheng's army also suffered 2,005 losses, and Lu Xiangsheng led the remaining 6,050 troops to pursue Dolgon day and night.

After a day of pursuit, he caught up with Dolgon's rear army, Dolgon did not expect that Lu Xiangsheng would pursue desperately, so there was a lack of defense, Lu Xiangsheng took the lead regardless of his personal safety, killed into the enemy camp, opened the circle of people who held the Han people, rescued more than 40,000 Han people, and the Han people escaped and hid directly in the mountains and forests, which was considered to have escaped.

Dolgon was furious when he learned about this, and sent Duoduo to lead the army to annihilate Lu Xiangsheng, a lone army, Duoduo led a large army to besiege Lu Xiangsheng, and at this time, Du Du of the rear army also integrated troops and horses to chase up, and besieged Lu Xiangsheng's heavenly army in Baoding, Hebei.

The soldiers of the Tianxiong Army once again fully exerted their tenacity, and used the advantage of firearms to engage in a tug-of-war with Jiannu for a day and a night.

The next day, Dolgon sent people to urge them to collect their troops, because they had received information that Lantian had increased his troops on the border for some reason, suspecting that they were preparing to attack him.

Dolgon feels that the Central Plains is very dangerous now, don't be beaten by Lantian to close the door, no matter how many soldiers and horses the Ming faction has, they are not afraid, but as soon as Lantian has a storm, Dolgon feels that it is extremely dangerous.

Therefore, Dolgon did not love to fight, and after destroying most of the Tianxiong army, Dolgon was satisfied, and the remaining Tianxiong army hid in the mountains to engage in guerrilla warfare with Jiannu, and Dolgon felt that there was no need to drag them out.

For Dorgon's instructions to collect troops, Duoduo was unimpressed, and even somewhat resistant, but Dudu was a person of general knowledge, and repeatedly dissuaded Duoduo from focusing on the overall situation.

Finally, on the 25th, the army of Duoduo and Dudu retreated.

In this battle, there were 6,500 Tianxiong troops, and in the end, only 500 people were left to stick to the deep mountains to confront Jiannu, and Jiannu also left 3,000 corpses on the land of Baoding.

It can be said that the losses were heavy, and in this battle, Lu Xiangsheng personally charged, and beheaded 23 Jiannu, which once again confirmed his title of King Lu Yan.

And this battle Tianxiong Army is completely abolished, 10,000 core men, only 500 people remain, Lu Xiangsheng's brother Lu Xiangtong died in battle, in exchange for 40,000 people who ran into the mountains to escape the war.

When he saw the body of his younger brother Lu Xiangtong, Lu Xiangsheng's face turned pale, but he didn't cry, but when he heard that there were only 500 people left in the entire Tianxiong Army in the end, and most of them were injured, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't hold back anymore and cried bitterly.

The tragedy of its voice made people cry, and a generation of heroes came to an end.

After the war, Lu Xiangsheng personally wrote a letter to the prefect of Baoding, hoping that the prefect of Baoding could send someone to receive the displaced people he saved.

Lu Xiangsheng had no choice but to write to Baoding Tongzhi again, the general judgment, and the county orders from all over the country, and the unified answer was that he was sick.

The angry Lu Xiangsheng scolded but was helpless.

In fact, this can't be blamed on these prefects, county orders, Lu Xiangsheng is now a *** annoyance, whoever sticks to it is unlucky, so let's stay away quickly.

….

Lu Xiangsheng didn't fight anywhere, but he had no choice but to take the people to survive in the deep mountains, but the heavy snow closed the mountains, and there was nothing to eat, and countless people starved to death these days.

Lu Xiangsheng killed the BMW he was riding, and this horse accompanied Lu Xiangsheng on the expedition and saved Lu Xiangsheng's life several times, but in the end, Lu Xiangsheng killed it and distributed it to a group of people who had no food.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't take a bite.

Human life is more valuable than horse life, but he, Lu Xiangsheng, can't speak, that's his life-saving benefactor.

In the wind and snow, Lu Xiangsheng looked into the distance blankly, in this battle, he snatched back 40,000 people, but 10,000 brothers died, and there was a younger brother of his own, ruined his good future, do you regret it?

In the end, Lu Xiangsheng thought about it for a long time, and finally got the answer that he did not regret it.

The people starved to death, froze to death, and died of disease more and more, and Lu Xiangsheng lived in pain every day

, the people have begun to dig the roots of the tree and eat it, and Lu Xiangsheng has not had a tooth for five days, and the whole person is shaky, as if he is about to die.

Finally, on the sixth day, he waited for the people of the imperial court, and it was still the eunuch who sent the decree, but this time he was followed by more than a dozen brocade guards.

Flying fish suit, embroidered spring knife, dazzling and dizzy, the eunuch of the decree saw Lu Xiangsheng like this, almost didn't recognize it, this is still the general who can cut Jiannu with a knife, a refugee who is skinny and bones.

The eunuch couldn't believe his eyes, but Lu Xiangsheng saw the eunuch as if he saw a life-saving straw, and said to him, "Father-in-law, save the people, save the people."

Listening to Lu Xiangsheng's weak appearance, his father-in-law asked Jin Yiwei to melt the cakes he was carrying with him with hot water, boil them into lakes and lakes for Lu Xiangsheng to pour down, Lu Xiangsheng didn't eat them, but he was forcibly pried open by Jin Yiwei.

The eunuch looked at the adult who was expected to become the humerus of the court, and was downcast like this, and couldn't help but say: "My lord, you better think about yourself first, Your Majesty has a will, Lu Xiangsheng resisted the decree and disobeyed it, used swords and soldiers without permission, and was heinous, let the miscellaneous family escort you into Beijing with the brocade guard, and the three law divisions will try and punish your crimes."

Lu Xiangsheng smiled when he heard this: "There is no need to judge, I admit all the crimes mentioned above, just beheaded, father-in-law, now it is this group of people, they are innocent, they are still the people of the Ming Dynasty, they should not starve to death here."

Hearing this, my father-in-law sighed and said, "Lord Lu, it's not that I don't want to help you, but Your Majesty is still angry, and how to settle these homeless people needs to be considered in the long run."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he said in despair: "Think about it in the long run, father-in-law, they are all dying of hunger!"

Hearing this, the eunuch said with a wry smile: "Lord Lu, don't embarrass the miscellaneous family, the miscellaneous family is a castration, Your Majesty and the princes of the court don't want to take care of it, what should you let me do?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng was about to explode: "How can Your Majesty watch the people starve to death here, these are all the people of the Ming Dynasty!"

When my father-in-law heard this, he said, "Lord Lu, I won't tell you that the Jiannu has been detained for a few years, which has led to the loss of the periphery of the capital, and there is a shortage of food inside the capital, and the Jiannu have burned and looted along the way, and no one in Hebei, Henan, and Shandong has any surplus grain to help these victims, so Lord Lu is not Your Majesty's care, but Your Majesty can't control it."

….

"At the beginning, Your Majesty didn't let the adults chase after you, but it was not a headache to save these 100,000 people, where should this ration come from, even if you rescue these people without rations, there is only one way to die, and even more rogues, why don't you listen!"

Lu Xiangsheng listened to his father-in-law's words, and the whole person sat on the cold stone, no matter how cold the stone was, it couldn't be cold in his heart now.

"Why, why did Daming become like this?"

Lu Xiangsheng felt that his heart was so painful, and Lu Xiangsheng didn't know how to say how he was feeling now.

Just when Lu Xiangsheng's heart was dead, suddenly the earth shook, as if a large-scale cavalry attacked, Lu Xiangsheng was stunned, immediately alert, his eyes were full of doubts, could it be that Jiannu went and returned?

Lu Xiangsheng immediately beckoned the five hundred Tianxiong troops under his command to prepare for battle, and the eunuch was so frightened that his face turned blue at this time, and the Jinyi guards who came with him were also terrified.

At this time, the earth shook, smoke and dust billowed in the distance, and the next moment I saw a cavalry of about a thousand people in the distance, and the cavalry was followed by hundreds of carriages, and the cavalry rushed over at this time.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at this group of cavalry, and at first thought that it was Jiannu, but at first glance it was not Jiannu, but when he saw that his military formation was neat, he saw that he had undergone strict military training, where did this cavalry come from?

Lu Xiangsheng's expression was serious, after all, with such an army, he shouldn't be ignorant of information.

This group of cavalry soon came to the front of the mountain, and the next moment one of them took out a big horn made of wood and shouted: "Don't panic, fellow villagers on the mountain, hunger is our big boss in Cangshan, Hebei, the king of the sky, the rivers and lakes are shouting, and the golden eyes are biao."

"We're here today for nothing else, I heard about fellow citizens

They are short of clothes and less clothing, and it just so happens that we have food in the cottage, and there is still a shortage of people, and if there are any people who are willing to fight bandits with hunger, if there is, they will go down the mountain, regardless of men, women, children, and hungry."

After saying that, this guy called Jinyan Biao directly asked people to open the cart behind him, and the cart was full of corn tortillas, and there was also a cauldron, Jinyan Biao said, "Come, cook the corn lake for the fellows and drink it together."

After saying this, someone made a fire, and the cauldron was propped up, and the cauldron was still boiling corn porridge, as if it was going to be relieved.

Looking at the appearance of this group of people, the corners of Lu Xiangsheng's eyes moistened for some reason, and a hundred households of the Tianxiong Army on the side came to the front and said, "My lord, where did this bandit come from, this equipment is also too good, and it is obviously strictly trained in military affairs."

"Yes, Cangshan, Hebei, is there such a bandit?"

The two people asked suspiciously, Lu Xiangsheng glanced at the two people and said with a smile: "Hebei Cangshan bandit Jinyan Biao, you really believe it, let me ask you, how can there be a bandit in Hebei who speaks the words of Shaanxi people, and it is the most authentic Lantian dialect, Hebei bandit Jinyan Biao, haha, amazing, amazing."

"Ah, you mean, this isn't a bandit from Hebei? Are they Lantian?"

"Shhhhhh

Lu Xiangsheng made a silent gesture, his eyes looked at the eunuch who was so frightened that he had already hid like a quail, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, this is the Cangshan bandits to recruit people, where are the Lantian people, after a while, you put down your weapons, take the villagers down the mountain to eat, after eating, you will also join the gang, and then follow them back to 'Cangshan,'"

….

"Huh? Master Overseer, if we are not going anywhere, we will not follow you."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he laughed and said, "What do you do with me, I want to go back to the capital with them and accept the trial."

"Ah, go back to the capital, Lord Inspector, it's good for you to go back to the capital now, who doesn't wait to see your jokes in those bastards in the court, how many people are sharpening their knives and waiting to kill you, and you will return to the capital?"

"Yes, Master Overseer, don't go back, you can't go up to Cangshan with us."

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head when he heard this: "No, I want to go to the capital, I, Lu Xiangsheng, must have a beginning and an end to do things, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, how can I escape the summons of the Great Tomorrow, I want to enter Beijing and finish the last road of my life."

"Ah, my lord, you, if you want this, we will also enter the capital with you."

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head when he heard this: "No, the Tianxiong Army will have your seeds left, you can't be cut off here, otherwise I'm sorry for the dead soldiers of the Tianxiong Army, you can't go to the capital, you are all marked with my Lu Xiangsheng, even if you don't die when you enter Beijing, you will be sent to the front line as cannon fodder, this is absolutely not okay, you listen to me, go back to Cangshan with them,"

"'Cangshan, that soil king is still good, he will definitely settle you well, you will live a good life in Cangshan, don't give your life for me again.'"

"Overseer!"

"Okay, don't say more, if you still recognize me as an overseer, I will give one last order, you take the last five hundred men of the Tianxiong Army, go with them, go to Cangshan, and live the life of a real man."

"Overseer~"

"Carry out the order."

"Yes."

The two hundred households were in tears, and at this time, Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand and said, "Go, drink porridge."

Hearing this, the two hundred households stood up, their faces already full of tears, and then one of them got up and shouted, "King of the mountain, we have come down to drink porridge."

Hearing this, the golden eye said, "Oh, come on, it's enough."

Hearing this, Baihu, who had not eaten anything serious for several days, waved his hand and said, "Brothers, lay down your weapons and go down the mountain to drink porridge."

Hearing this, a group of people put down their weapons and walked slowly down the mountain, and when they arrived at the bottom of the mountain, they all had hot porridge to drink, and when they saw the Tianxiong Army taking the lead, the people who were like frightened birds also went down the mountain, and then received a bowl of porridge from the king of the mountain, and then registered the name, specialty, you want to join the bandits, and you can't do it if you don't record these well.

"Ah, auntie, what will you do?"

"I can steam Shandong steamed buns

Head, do you think I can be a bandit, my lord?"

"Yes, yes."

"King, I can farm, can I be a bandit?"

"That's fine."

"King, I used to be a gangster and killed people, can I be a bandit?"

"Oh, I've killed people, I've killed good guys and bad guys."

"Good man, an old man, bad and good things, I slaughtered him, at that time I beat the four men of their family alone, I was very powerful."

"Come on, control it, don't let him run."

"Ah, what are you doing here, my lord?"

"Ah, it's okay, you're a talent, divide it separately, I can promote you to a small leader or something in the future, and I can also give you a small house separately."

"Ah, yes, that's a good feeling."

The gangsters who have killed people are quite happy, you see, I have said that being a bandit is ruthless, I am a special talent, and I am waiting to make a fortune in the future.
