"Where did you hide the emperor?" The soldier caught a villager and roared.

"How can there be an emperor in our small mountain village!"

"What about the young and strong in your village, why are they all old and weak?"

An old man walked out tremblingly, "We have captured a bandit, and the young men have gone to the town to ask for credit!"

"What kind of bandits?"

"I heard that he was blind in one eye...... Ah......h

The intruder couldn't listen to it anymore, what is called being blind in one eye, and he will cut it with a knife.

"Strategist, they said they were going to town! It's getting dark, are we going to chase after it?"

Niu Jinxing scolded: "You little rabbit cub, you say that you can't chase it, don't talk about the dark sky, even if there are knives in the sky, you have to save Your Majesty."

The army left 100 people, slaughtered Xiaoyuankou Village, and burned it to the ground.

The army rushed to the town.

As the sky gradually darkened, no one knew the way to the army, and they walked in the middle of the night in the dark, but they did not find the so-called town.

When they crashed into a small village and found a villager as a guide, they increased their speed.

On the second day, the army rushed to the town and surrounded it to death.

"Release our Emperor!"

"Release the King of Breaks!"

Cheng Jiubo and the mayor heard the shouting outside, and looked at the one-eyed bandit on the ground who was missing half a head, and they were really scared.

"This one-eyed bandit is really King Li Zicheng!"

"What to do? If those thieves rush in, we will surely die." The mayor of the town cried and scolded, "Cheng Jiu, you are a scourge!"

"I don't know!" Cheng Jiubo wanted to cry without tears.

Niu Jinxing surrounded the town here, and 7 miles away, He Tengjiao was hurrying with his army.

Suddenly, a scout returned, "My lord, there are thieves surrounding a town ahead, do you want to save it?"

"How many?"

"Less than two thousand!"

"What nonsense, the whole army is attacking!" He Tengjiao waved his big hand, and the 20,000 people behind him quickly rushed towards the scout.

The infantry could reach the town seven miles away in a quarter of an hour or two.

He Tengjiao's troops soon fought with Niu Jinxing's thieves.

Most of He Tengjiao's soldiers are new recruits, but with a large number of people, in the case of ten to one, the considerable combat power is quite objective.

The savior of the army was heartfelt, and although there were only more than 1,600 people, they burst out with terrifying combat effectiveness.

The two sides fought until noon, and after He Tengjiao's troops killed 3,000 people, they could be regarded as surrounding the remnants of Niu Jinxing.

Niu Jinxing panted, looked at the only five or six hundred people left around him, and then looked at the more than 10,000 Ming troops outside, and said loudly, "Brothers, do you want us to surrender?"

……

Seven days later, a war report arrived in Anqing, and Huang Degong was overjoyed and sent a clipper to hurry east.

For another three days, laughter erupted in the Nanjing Imperial Palace.

"He Tengjiao is really a loyal and brave minister, and he is a rare general in the world!"

Hongguang Longyan Dayue.

"He Tengjiao swept away the thieves is a great achievement, and he was named a scholar of Dongge University and the governor of Huguang, and he was crowned Dingxing Bo! Plugging Yinxi to capture Niu Venus alive has merit, and he was promoted to the imperial history of the capital and crowned Guanghuabo."

Hongguang was very excited, and after saying that, the reward was not enough, he looked at Ma Shiying in front of him, and continued:

"Ma Shiying, as the first assistant, has a meritorious leadership, and has been crowned the crown prince! There is also the military department Shangshu Shi Kefa, crowned the prince Shaobao, a few days ago died in the Shuntian Mansion of the military department squire Zuo Maodi, to him posthumously, on the title of the general......

Ma Shiying shook his head, "Your Majesty, He Tengjiao happened to pass by and picked up Li Zicheng's body from the villagers, so there is no need to make such a high reward. Du Yinxi is even more so, how can he say that he captured Niu Venus alive? He just pulled out the bull Venus among the thieves' captives.

Besides, the minister didn't know anything about it, so he didn't dare to ask for credit!"

Hongguang was happy in his heart, and waved his hand, "No, no, no, I am

I want to take a look at the whole world, as long as I am dedicated to doing things for the court, I will also be rewarded for the credit I have picked up!

What's more, Li Zicheng disturbed me for 17 years in the Ming Dynasty, and finally died under my rule, such a gratifying and congratulatory event, how can I be rewarded! How else to show my outstanding merits, how to show the world that I know people and make good use of them!"

Ma Shiying was speechless, "The emperor's destiny is returned, wise and martial!"

Historically, after Li Zicheng's death, He Tengjiao recruited hundreds of thousands of troops from Li Chuang's army to resist the Qing Dynasty.

Emperor Longwu, who had just succeeded to the throne, in order to buy people's hearts and motivate the soldiers, appointed him as a scholar of Dongge University and a secretary of the military department, and crowned him as Dingxingbo.

It was also at that time that Du Yinxi recruited Li Guo and commanded the loyal battalion, so he was exceptionally promoted to the right attendant of the military department and the imperial history of the capital, and was named Guanghuabo.

In this life, by chance, the two of them were rewarded three months ahead of schedule, and their fame shocked the world.

It's a pity that they have now become the heroes of Li Zicheng and Niu Jinxing alive, and it is no longer possible to recruit the remnants of the Chuang army.

However, in this life, Li Zicheng was killed too badly by Azig, except for Li Guo, there are 10,000 horses under his command, and the other generals of the army have almost become bare-bones commanders, and it is impossible to have an army of hundreds of thousands of people.

If Li Guo learns about this, he will definitely give up Changsha and turn around to avenge Li Zicheng!

After He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi received the holy decree of reward, they were also stunned, what was the situation, they just killed the enemy by the way, and killed 1,000 thieves with the loss of 3,000 people, and then they were crowned uncles and worshiped the prime minister?

It's also magical!

"What a matter, don't dare to take the decree from your humble position......" Plug Yinxi was frightened.

He Tengjiao also smiled bitterly, looking at the holy decree in the hand of the eunuch, he didn't know what to do.

The eunuch looked at the panicked two, with a disgusted expression when he looked at the buns: "Two uncles, take the order, such a heavenly grace, this is something that no one else dares to think of!"

……

Just when He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi were trembling and thanking them, Chongzhen finally completed all the deployments and made a final military discussion with several elders of the Military Aircraft Department.

"Your Majesty, Li Yutian replied that he has received all the firearms, grain and grass, and the new instructor has also been in place, a few days ago, he has already commanded the cavalry of the various tribes of Mongol in southern Mo and the men and horses of the Daning headquarters, and is heading towards the hinterland of Mongolia!"

Listening to Ni Yuanlu's report, Chongzhen kept nodding.

"According to the information of the Military Intelligence Department, the Mongolian leaders of the Hozit Division, the Lingel Division, the Tumut Division, the Ordos Division, and the Oirat Division in the Mongolian hinterland have been in frequent contact recently, and they often gather, and it seems that they are going to resist to the end!" Ni Yuanlu's face was a little worried, after all, these tribes are all big tribes, if they join forces, they can make up 100,000 cavalry, to say the least.

Li Yutian only has 10,000 flying dragon troops and 50,000 Mongolian soldiers under his command, and he is a lone army, which is really worrying.

Seeing his face, Chongzhen smiled and said, "Mr. Ni don't worry, the Arms Bureau has sent the four newly made Makqin and 100,000 rounds of ammunition to Daning, and this battle will be won!"
