"Master Gu, don't say much about this matter, it's all on me, after all, the suffering of the people is within my heart."

Li Yue's expression was calm, and as soon as the words fell, Gu Haiping was also very excited, and the two exchanged a few words of greeting, and said goodbye.

When Li Yue left the prefect's yamen, he saw that Tang Yuan and the others had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

"Young master, something happened, we just got the news, and we rushed over day and night."

Tang Yuan said urgently.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

Li Yue frowned, and he already felt that something was wrong in his heart.

"Li Zicheng has broken through Shanxi, approaching the north of Zhili, and the northern capital is in danger."

Tang Yuan said with a solemn expression.

"Don't talk about it here, go back and talk about it."

Li Yue's face was nervous, but as soon as the words fell, he stopped again.

"Tell everyone in the city directly, evacuate all, and leave no one behind."

As soon as Li Yue's words were finished, the people around him felt that the matter was very serious, and immediately performed their duties and prepared to leave the city.

At the same time that Li Yue was preparing to leave the city, he also directly put pressure on Gu Haiping to the limit.

Because Tang Yuan and Li Sanniang brought enough food and people to have 100,000 people, the soldiers pointed to Jiangdu City.

suddenly made the other party feel the danger, and also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he directly released Chen Lingyue and Zhao Huan.

After the second daughter returned, everyone did not make any stops, and all went north.

100,000 elite soldiers were led by Shi Lei and 500 wolf tooth soldiers and marched directly towards Tongzhou.

At the same time, with the help of the strength of the Qiu family in Tongzhou and the ships brought by Tang Yuan, 100,000 soldiers bravely took a boat and headed north.

And Li Yue and the others sat on a three-story building with a height of four feet, sailing on the sea as a flagship.

"Childe, why would Gu Haiping let us go so easily?"

Chen Lingyue asked with a puzzled expression.

"He also learned that Shanxi had been breached, and Li Zicheng's army had approached Beizhili, and now he used you to threaten me again, it was useless."

Li Yue said with a sneer.

"So that's the case, so wouldn't it be too hasty for us to move north now? I'm afraid something will happen! ”

Chen Lingyue said worriedly.

"Don't worry, no, Hu Yongzhi and Wu Liangyong have gathered 50,000 elite soldiers to go north along the Cao Canal Road, and I believe that it will take less than twenty days to meet us at Tanggukou."

Li Yue looked calm and looked very confident, but he was uneasy in his heart.

I've been wondering why everything seems to be speeding up.

"So that's the case, if the two armies converge, there are still some chances of victory, but I heard that King Chuang led a million people, and we have less than 200,000 troops, so we can compete with them."

Chen Lingyue said with a worried face.

"You can rest assured that Zhou An has pacified the entire Huguang, and the integration of nearly 200,000 troops will go north at the same time, and with a total of 300,000 troops from Runing Mansion in Henan to join us, we can also claim to be one million."

Li Yue said with a sneer.

While the two were talking, Tang Yuan stepped forward with an urgent expression.

"Young master, the forces we have used this time are all we have, if the first battle is frustrated, it will definitely be a heavy blow to us."

Tang Yuan looked at Li Yue with a solemn expression, and at the same time, Chen Lingyue was also worried.

Seeing the two of them like this, Li Yue pretended to smile mysteriously, took out a stack of drawings from his arms and handed them to the two.

"Let me show you, with this kind of thing, you can scare off an army of millions."

Li Yue handed the drawings to Chen Lingyue, and Tang Yuan on the side was also very curious and stepped forward to inspect them.

When the two of them saw the drawings at the same time, both of them showed even more puzzled expressions.

"Childe, is this a cannon barrel? The caliber is so large and the wall of the pipe is so thin, it will definitely not be able to be used normally. ”

Chen Lingyue said worriedly.

"Don't worry, this is a one-piece cannon barrel that I specially asked people to cast by the method of filling steel, and the force it is not large, and it is mixed cast by brass and wrought iron, so I don't have to worry about exploding."

Li Yue said very confidently.

"Won't blow up? With such a large caliber, it takes a lot of gunpowder to carry out explosive propulsion, how can it not explode? ”

Chen Lingyue frowned and said with a serious face.

"Rest assured, there isn't much fire used, just throw a pack full of explosive gunpowder two hundred to two hundred and fifty steps."

As soon as Li Yue's voice fell, Tang Yuan's face suddenly changed drastically, as if he sensed how powerful the weapon Li Yue was talking about.

But Chen Lingyue was still very worried.

Li Yue re-explained the whole principle again, which reassured Chen Lingyue.

And the decisive weapon made by Li Yue is the terrifying conscienceless cannon of modern World War II.

Its power is so great that even if it can't kill people, the powerful shock wave generated can directly tear people apart.

Such a sharp weapon, directly used in the era of the late Ming Dynasty, is definitely a weapon that has been opened.

At this time, Li Yue had already made full preparations.

Originally, he wanted to stabilize the south and then try to go north, but what he didn't expect was that things would come out much faster than he imagined.

More than 100,000 people took more than 10 days by boat to come directly to Tanggukou and go to Tianjin along the canal from Tanggukou.

At this time, Li Zicheng's army had already approached the city, and the entire Beizhili was full of mourning.

Chongzhen looked at the dense Dashun army under the city with a hideous expression, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Heaven is dead, I am a big Ming!"

Chongzhen's expression was sluggish, like a living dead.

Listen to the deafening trumpets and drums of the enemy.

Chongzhen, who had already become a living dead, knew that his emperor might be the king of the dead country.

A man with thick eyebrows and eagle eyes and full of domineering spirit stood on the lookout platform in the middle of the Chinese army, holding clairvoyance and looking at the northern capital.

"Chongzhen Xiao'er, I will accept your life."

The person who said this was none other than Li Zicheng, the emperor of Dashun, with an invincible domineering spirit in his confident eyes.

And at this moment, the army is as brave as the Yellow River bursting its banks.

I feel that as long as I rush to the city wall, I can directly break through this unprecedented capital.

When the Dashun army was less than 300 steps away from the north, it was found that cavalry wearing black leather armor appeared on both sides of the army, like sharp knives, with lightning speed, straight into the Chinese army camp.

At the same time, one after another the chariots also rushed forward, but there were not shooters on the chariots, but four gunners.

The moment the chariot stopped, the gunner immediately took out the cannon designed by Li Yue.

Originally, Li Zicheng felt a little scared when he saw this scene.

However, when I saw that there were no more than 10,000 cavalrymen, and my own army exceeded more than 200,000, I didn't pay attention to them at all.

But as soon as he heard the deafening sound of cannons, and saw the heavy casualties, he knew that his siege was over.

Li Yue, who was standing in the distance, showed a mysterious smile.

His time has come!
