Chapter 132: Li Guo Avoids Disaster (1)

Because the big guy spoke, Li Zicheng let go of the fat in his mouth, and the 'Old Eighth Team' changed from a pioneer to a rear team, and the group turned backwards and became a team for the 'Thirteen Families and Seventy-two Battalions'. As the head of the first army, Li Zicheng's style is high, but it does not mean that his subordinates are also high-spirited, so quarrels have become the main theme in the 'Old Eighth Team'.

Since the 'Old Eighth Team' can't do anything alone, there is no possibility of being able to fight the crowd bravely, so Li Zicheng came up with a clever countermeasure from his subordinates.

According to historical records, because the '13 families and 72 battalions' finally adopted Li Zicheng's policy of "dividing troops and determining where to go," most of the merit-grabbers used Ge Liyan and Zuo Jin Wang to attack Sichuan and Hu soldiers, Hengtian Wang and 100,000 Shaanxi soldiers, Luo Rucai and Guotianxing strangles the river, Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Jiu Tiaolong, and Lao Huihui and other people to the east; and Li Zicheng responded to the situation.

Later, due to the sharp strength of the Shaanxi army, the king of Hengtian and the 100,000 people of the war were not down, so they increased the number of people who fell into the sky and the king of the world to lead the troops to help. The Ming Dynasty mobilized more than 70,000 soldiers from the northwest and the south to fight in Henan, and ordered Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, to go out of the customs to command, and to assist in the attack with Zhu Dadian, the governor of Shandong.

On the eighth day of the first month after the division of troops, Lu Xiangsheng, the loyal 'prime minister of the thief', led the general army Zu Kuan, the guerrilla Luo Dai and other soldiers to rush to the aid of Chuzhou, and they rushed to the front of the battle with the peasant army at the Wuli Bridge in the east of Chuzhou City. The leaders of the 'Thirteen Families and the Seventy-two Battalions' only discovered at this time that the fat meat should also be good for their teeth; the 'Thirteen Families and the Seventy-two Battalions' were unfavorable in the battle, and Lu Xiangsheng cut off the heads of the seven generals by himself, "The thieves were all defeated, retreated 50 miles to the north, and were beheaded more than 1,200 levels, from Zhulong Pass to Guanshan, the corpses were accumulated in the ditch, and the water did not flow." ”

After the defeat of the peasant army in charge of the general attack, the remnants crossed north to force Sizhou and Xuzhou, and re-transferred to Henan. At the end of the month, part of the rebel army returned to Shang and Luo from Nanshan, and at noon on 11 February, without waiting for these reckless heroes to rest, Lu Xiangsheng led his troops to the scene...... He slashed 676 levels and captured more than 400 horses and mules. ”

However, the lonely Li Zicheng 'Old Eighth Team', at this time, took advantage of the opportunity of the Ming Court to encircle Gao Yingxiang's main force with all his might, sacrificed the magic weapon of blitzkrieg, crossed the state and approached Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown, and captured Fengyang in only one day and night. Although Fengyang is not a big city at this time, Fengyang's influence is extremely heavy, because this is the hometown of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

After Li Zicheng's 'Old Eighth Team' captured Fengyang, together with Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong, who had come to take advantage of the defeated remnants of the army, they destroyed the imperial mausoleum, burned the Longxing Temple, killed more than 60 eunuchs, and beheaded Zhu Guoxiang and several thousand officers and soldiers who remained behind in the Ming Dynasty.

However, the class limited everyone's thinking, and on the third day of breaking Fengyang, Li Zicheng himself also formed a grudge with the 'Eight Kings' Zhang Xianzhong because of the competition for the prisoners, little eunuchs and royal honor guards of the Fengyang Palace...... Everything is vivid, which really makes Li Zicheng feel that "the past is unbearable." ”

If you can't fight or surrender, then there is only one way to escape.

Then the question arises, "Who will be the bait?" This glorious and arduous task, everyone naturally has to push each other, who let the main and deputy generals of the 'Tiger Ben Battalion' not be on duty, then everyone unanimously recommended Li Guo's 'Tiger Ben Battalion' to complete the most difficult task on this earth.

In the past, whenever he was marching and camping, Li Zicheng would always walk among the wounded soldiers, ask this and look at that, and sometimes imitate the story of 'Wu Qi sucking pus' in the ancient soldier's book, and personally wrap the wound with the colorful wound dressing.

In the summer of the year when Fengyang was broken, there was a brother who had been wounded by a knife and had pus on his leg, and due to the medical conditions at that time, his wound was infested with maggots, and the stench was pungent and unpleasant. Li Zicheng saw that there were too many wounds in the army, and those with few arms and legs were hanging on the ground, and the few doctors couldn't keep busy at all, so he rolled up his sleeves and volunteered to take matters into his own hands to squeeze out the pus and blood for the wounded soldier, wash the wound, and apply the Jinchuang Detoxification and Shengmusan Powder secretly made by Shang Shen Doctor, and then bandage the wound of this soldier. Li Zicheng enjoyed the admiration of the soldiers at that time.

Li Zicheng enjoyed it very much, when he squeezed the pus and blood for the wounded soldiers, even the wounded brothers next to him were moved to tears by the scene in front of him. At this point, Li Zicheng was deeply inspired by Wu Qi to lead the troops, and the soldiers who had received his favor were often willing to die for Li Zicheng and did not spare their lives in the battle array.

But time has passed, "Once upon a time, I actually wanted to use the 'Tiger Camp' as the tail of the gecko to save my life?"

Tonight, Li Zicheng finished discussing the matter with Liu Zongmin, Tian Jianxiu, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang, Gao Yigong, Hao Shaoqi, and other senior generals, but he did not have the heart to go to the wounded soldiers to offer condolences. The situation of the whole army is very dangerous, and he may encounter another great battle tomorrow that will decide the life and death of the whole army, and his heart is very troubled.

Li Qiang walked through the crowd and woke up Liu Xiyao, who had not been washed for days. Seeing this face that was a little younger than himself, Li Qiang's heart was also unbearable, "The loss of this little general under the command of Brother Supplement is that he is too sincere, and Liu Xiyao is too serious about the responsibility entrusted to him by his own master and deputy general."

This Li Zicheng's personal army leader, Li Qiang knows almost all the secrets in the army. In the past few days, Liu Xiyao has led the 'Tiger Battalion' adapted from 200 forward battalion soldiers, as well as pawns, poles, coerced young men and miscellaneous servants, and after the 'Old Eighth Team' was broken alone, he saw that the 'Tiger Battalion' of nearly 10,000 people was consumed over time, and now there are only 3,000 men and horses, and most of them have been lost......

However, I don't know if it was because Liu Xiyao was stupid, or because Li Guo had a special instruction to him when he left, Liu Xiyao just calmly listened to Li Qiang's relay, and accepted the task of 'severing the tail to survive' without hesitation.

Such an indisputable command made Li Qiang, who had a stomach full of words, feel a little panicked.

As the commander-in-chief of the First Army, Li Zicheng has already developed a temperament that is invisible, and ordinary generals can't see through the anxiety and depression in his heart.
