Chapter 63: Counting Baofeng (6)
To be honest, if Guo Junzhen is from a better background, such as a Yulin Jiangmen family like Zuo Guangxian, then his future is only extremely limited.
Rao is such a desperate situation, he has played quite outstanding results, after Liu Wenbing's soldiers and horses were replenished, Guo Junzhen miraculously stabilized the already crumbling defense line, and even carried out some counterattacks to a certain extent.
In order to defeat the invading army, Guo Junzhen ordered people to prepare thirteen or fourteen wheelbarrows, then placed hay on them, poured fuel oil, and sent the brave to attack the front line of the invading army after igniting them.
And Liu Wenbing took the opportunity to lead the armor to cover up the killing, holding a big knife, where he passed, the people and horses were broken, and the army did not have a united enemy for a while, forcing Hao Yongzhong to take the thirteen personal guards to go up, and barely withstood Liu Wenbing's assault.
Just when the two sides were entangled, the sound of military trumpets and gongs and drums came, followed by the sound of uniform slogans, and from a distance, in the direction of the city gate, an army wrapped in a blue turban and wearing a variety of armor was slowly coming, unhurried, under the beat of the drum, like a neatly moving machine.
"King Chuang is here!" Hao Yongzhong was running for his life in order to deal with Liu Wenbing, and when he saw the big banner of "Chuang" at the gate of the city, he knew that reinforcements were coming, and immediately shouted excitedly.
When the army saw Li Zicheng's army entering the city, their morale was instantly high, and they all shouted and charged, all wanting to rely on bravery to make a familiar face in front of Li Zicheng, so that the promotion in the future would be just around the corner, looking at the Ming army in front of them was like watching military exploits, just thinking about cutting it down to receive the reward.
And the Ming army was miserable, Li Zicheng army arrived, indicating that Guo Junzhen's plan was completely bankrupt, and the morale of the Ming army could almost be said to collapse instantly.
"General, the general trend has gone, let's go to the south gate, there is no army over there, or we can get a way out!" Liu Wenbing was bleeding all over at this moment, and walked straight to Guo Junzhen with the blood-stained Glaive Knife and admonished.
"There is an end, and I will definitely ensure that the total must be out of the south gate!" Liu Wenbing saw that Guo Junzhen was silent, and immediately added.
Guo Junzhen wants to leave at this time, but it is not impossible to go, after all, the south gate is indeed not guarded by the army, and Liu Wenbing and his subordinates are elite, it is not difficult to go out on a bloody road, and Li Zicheng has no time to divide his troops to pursue them.
However, Guo Junzhen really has no intention of leaving, the reason is very simple, he will inevitably die if he leaves, lose his land and land, and escape from the battle, no matter how beautiful you play, it is inevitable that there will be a dead word, not to mention that he Guo Junzhen is humble and light, who cares what he says and what he does?
Thinking of this, Guo Junzhen gritted his teeth, since it is death to go and death to stay, simply die here, and the name of the whole martyr is also excellent!
"Don't go, if you want to go, let's go, I am determined to live and die with Baofeng, and live up to the kindness of my father!" Guo Junzhen took a deep breath, pulled out his sword and said coldly.
"Put the total! Think again! The fall of Baofeng is not the total fault, but the He Jiao! The Son of Heaven will be aware of the total difficulties! Liu Wenbing was in a hurry when he heard this, and hurriedly admonished.
Guo Junzhen shook his head with a wry smile when he heard this, Liu Wenbing didn't know enough about their son of heaven, that is a person who has never been wrong, and if something happens, his subordinates are wrong, Baofeng is lost, and he always has to be scapegoated, and these martial artists are the best choice, rather than this, it is better to ask for a hero.
"I've made up my mind, and I don't want to say anything more!" Guo Junzhen said categorically.
Liu Wenbing knew Guo Junzhen's temper, and when he heard this, he stomped a few feet in annoyance, scolded a few words, and didn't know whether to scold Guo Junzhen or Li Zicheng, and then sighed and said: "Since the general manager has decided, my old Liu's life will be handed over here!" ”
After speaking, he turned his head and shouted: "Brothers! If you want to go, go to the south gate, the south gate did not break into the army, if you want to stay, it is the master's, go to the official office with us! Even death will not make the thief feel good! ”
Guo Junzhen is kind and righteous in governing the army, and when he heard this, the Ming troops around him said in unison: "I am willing to die for the general!" The fact that no one left shows its prestige.
Guo Junzhen didn't expect that the soldiers were willing to stay, took a deep breath, shook his head and whispered: "I, Guo Junzhen, am reckless, and I don't have a family background of meritorious service, I didn't expect that I could let people sacrifice their lives so far, isn't it a blessing?" In this way, there is no regret in dying! ”
After finishing speaking, the remaining Ming army of less than 100 people was gathered, and roared towards the official office, it was obvious that Guo Junzhen was not carried away by the huge defeat, but had already begun to think about the next key points of deployment.
With Guo Junzhen's retreat to the official office, Baofeng's resistance came to an end, and the army successfully took over the entire Baofeng City, and Li Zicheng also rode a war horse triumphantly into this small county town that made him work hard.
"Did the Baofeng guards catch it?" Li Zicheng rode into the city, accompanied by Li Yan and Gao Yigong, this is the honor of the city breaker, and he can enjoy the glory of victory with the lord.
"Baofeng guards Guo Junzhen and Liu Wenbing have not been caught, maybe they have escaped from the south gate," Gao Yigong reported on the side.
Li Zicheng sighed regretfully when he heard this: "These two people are talents, but they can't be used, and it's also excellent to see each other, but it's a pity that I didn't catch them after all." ”
"Do you want to send someone to chase after you?" Li Yan saw Li Zicheng's regret, how could he not regret it, he added on the spot, if it wasn't for the cavalry of the reserve army, he would have let people chase after him.
"No need, it's some good guys, let them go." Li Zicheng shook his head when he heard the words and said, he has always respected heroes, since he is gone, let them go.
"King Chuang, Baofeng County ordered He Jiao to open the city for us this time, and he has made great contributions, please reward him" Li Yan added without losing any time, and He Jiao is his horse bone.
Li Zicheng didn't say anything when he heard this, but his brows furrowed slightly, his face showed a disgusted expression, and he said: "As an official of the imperial court, I can't defend the city, and I still take the initiative to surrender, and now I still want to cooperate with us to break into the army to report a credit, and cooperating with such a person, wouldn't it tarnish my name for breaking into the camp?" ”
Li Yan didn't expect Li Zicheng to nod, and was suddenly a little embarrassed, after all, He Jiao was guaranteed by his reputation, and he didn't believe it if he didn't keep his promises, and then he gave up his hand and admonished: "It is true that He Jiao is a villain, but villains have the usefulness of villains. ”
Li Zicheng's face was still not good-looking when he heard this, he had never had a good attitude towards people like He Jiao, and the reason why the army rebelled was because of the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and now he cooperated with them, which made Li Zicheng full of disgust and nausea.
"Let's discuss this matter again, let's entertain it first." Li Zicheng was obviously swept away by He Jiao's matter, and waved his hand impatiently.
Li Yan was also helpless, and now the situation can only be like this, but he still arched his hand and said, "Isn't it a seer?" ”
"Nope! Let Gu join the army to meet" Li Zicheng had no interest in seeing He Jiao, he was afraid that he would meet and couldn't help but slash with a knife, so he directly refused Li Yan's request.
In this case, Li Yan had no choice but to say embarrassedly: "My subordinates take orders." ”
Just when Li Yan was discussing with Li Zicheng how to deal with He Jiao, a fast horse galloped over, with a flag on his back, and at first glance it was a herald under Liu Zongmin's command.
"Report! Break into the king, the official thief is entrenched in the official office, defend according to the danger, Liu Zongshao has failed several attacks, and he has come to ask for his life to attack it with fire! The herald brought Liu Zongmin's request.
"How many people are entrenched in the government office?" Li Yan was puzzled for a while when he heard this, he had been to Guo Junzhen's official office, it was not very big, and he could not necessarily put down hundreds of soldiers and horses, why couldn't Liu Zongmin defeat it?
"Back to Li Guanjun, about fifty people!"
"Fifty people stumped Liu Jiexuan?" Li Zicheng snorted coldly when he heard this: "You still want to set fire? If the treasures of the treasury are burned, won't this treasure be in vain? Is he, Liu Jiexuan, so pampered that he can't even fight? Tell him! Don't set fire, I'll give him a stick of incense and eat the official thieves in the official office! ”
"Yes!" Seeing that Li Zicheng was angry, the herald was greatly alarmed, and hurriedly surrendered his hand and wanted to go away.
"Wait!" Li Yan sensed that something was wrong from his words, and hurriedly called the herald to stop, and arched his hand to Li Zicheng and admonished: "King Chuang, in Baofeng City, there is only one person who can block the heavenly soldiers, Guo Junzhen is the only one, and his subordinates are not bad, this person should be among them, if he takes it hard, he is afraid that he will not be able to get benefits, and Guo Junzhen is a good person, and his subordinates think that if they can be collected for their own use, wouldn't it be beautiful?" ”
Li Zicheng nodded, what Li Yan said was right, if it was really Guo Junzhen, he would really be reluctant to give him all to eat, so he eased his tone and said, "Is there a way to watch the army?" ”
"Willing to give it a try!" Li Yan said with a smile.
