0503, retired after success

The Rogues don't have a fixed nest in the first place, so there are no certain rules for their actions.

Zhang Xianzhong and Lao Hui returned to attack Fengyang City, the capital of the city, but did not break through it in three hours, but lost more than 20,000 people, and finally were completely defeated by the mysterious five thunder fire bombs, and no one knew where they would flee.

Prince Xiong rushed out of the city gate and galloped westward, with Mandeli leading the members of the White Phoenix Guard to follow closely behind to serve as protection. Yan Erniang met Mo Jiuniang, Chang Delin and Tang Da at the city gate, and then led forty-eight cavalry to follow.

Is Prince Xiong going to chase after Zhang Xianzhonghe? Of course not, he wants to take this opportunity to run for his life!

It is normal for ordinary people to share weal and woe, but not wealth and prosperity.

Although Xiong Chu has wanted to be an ordinary person for more than ten years, others say that he is not an ordinary person, even if he wants to be an ordinary person.

Since they are not even ordinary people, everyone can cooperate in the face of life and death, and even live and die together. But the enemy has been defeated away, and Xiong Chu feels that a new enemy is likely to appear in Fengyang City, the central capital.

This new enemy is not someone else, but Xiong Chu himself.

Because he instructed Sheng Kexue to use the identity of Jinyiwei to put the governor Yang Yipeng, the prefect Yan Rongxuan, and the city guard Zhu Guoxiang and others under house arrest, this is a big problem.

Putting the imperial court under house arrest, and then seizing military power and acting recklessly, depleting all the reserves of the entire central capital Fengyang City, can completely rise to the height of rebellion.

Jinyi Wei Sheng Kexue, the commander Yuan Ruizhen, and the Qianhu Chen Hongzu will immediately turn their faces and shoot themselves back, Xiong Chu is not sure.

Xiong Chu has absolute reason to believe that once Yang Yipeng, Yan Rongxuan, and Zhu Guoxiang are free, they will definitely find trouble for themselves.

Although these scholars are incompetent in the face of the enemy, they are definitely good at dealing with their own people.

Xiong Chu had already planned to escape, so he arranged all his people on the street of the West City Gate, so that he could rush out of the city at the same time without alarming anyone.

It gives others the feeling that they are the first to kill the enemy, and by the time others react, they have already fled.

After Yan Erniang led Chang Delin and Tang Da's personal soldiers, she quickly discovered the problem, so she urged the horse to the front and shouted: "Xianggong, Lu Chengying and Chen Hongzu led the cavalry to follow, and it seems that the reinforcements from Suzhou in the north have also come." If we don't accelerate, we won't be able to get away from them. ”

Xiong Chutou didn't reply: "Not for the time being, Zhang Xianzhong's people are still retreating westward, we can't be too fast." If Zhang Xianzhong is forced to turn around and fight to the death, we will be in trouble. Let everyone hold down the speed, and don't let Chen Hongzu chase them too close. ”

In the next half an hour, every time he encountered the homeless, Xiong Chu no longer dothered about it, but told them to surrender to the officers and troops behind them, otherwise there would be no way to live.

Along the way, more than 3,000 displaced people were captured and scattered, and after a brief explanation by Xiong Chu and others, they basically stopped and continued to escape. In fact, they could not escape, because more than a thousand cavalry were chasing them.

Chase it out for twenty miles to the west in one breath, and look at it to the north of Liufu Town.

Liufu Town, the last time Xiong Chu passed here, it was named after the Nanjing town guard Liu Qian returned to the field during the Yongle period, and built a mansion here.

It was also at this time that the crowd in front of the black pressure did not continue to run westward, but suddenly turned around and headed south.

Xiong Chu knew very well in his heart that Zhang Xianzhong and the others were likely to sweep through Liufu Town to raise some grain and grass, and then enter a commanding height in Longwang Mountain in the south, and then take a short rest.

After all, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhang Xianzhong's department had eaten before dawn, and after several hours of fighting, he was already exhausted. There was neither the strength to fight again, nor the ability to continue to flee.

This was a good opportunity to disengage, so Xiong Chu jumped on his horse and raised his internal force and shouted: "Don't entangle with the enemy, advance at full speed to the west, distance yourself from the officers and troops behind, rush to the Huai River to assemble, and then look for a ferry to cross the river." ”

Xiong Chu, Yan Erniang, Mo Jiuniang, Mandaili and Baifeng Guards are all BMWs, Chang Delin and Tang Da are all good horses purchased by themselves, and their speed is much stronger than that of the cavalry of the official army.

Before, he didn't want to get too close to Zhang Xianzhong's defeated army, so he didn't dare to rush too fast. Now Zhang Xianzhong's people have changed direction, as if a torrent is rolling south.

As for where Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates can flee and what they are prepared to do, this is not a matter of concern at present.

So Xiong Chu did not hesitate and gave the order to flee at full speed.

In a quarter of an hour, Yan Erniang rushed to the side of Prince Xiong again: "Xianggong, everyone else is chasing the enemy south, only Chen Hongzu led five hundred people to chase after us, it is difficult to get rid of it all of a sudden, what now?"

"It's really haunting. Prince Xiong restrained Hulei Leopard: "You lead everyone to continue to move west, and I will stay to see what this Chen Hongzu wants to do." ”

Xiong Chu didn't think that five hundred cavalry would be able to do anything to him, so he simply turned his horse's head and jumped off his horse to let Hulei Leopard rest.

Chen Hongzu was still wearing a bronze helmet and chain armor, but in three breaths, he had already rushed to fifty zhang away.

At this moment, Chen Hongguo raised the spear in his hand and shouted at the same time: "The whole army is on standby!"

Turning over and dismounting, he thrust the spear into the ground, tied the reins to the spear, and took off his helmet and hung it on the spear.

"Childe, are you going to say goodbye without saying goodbye?"

"The crisis in the central capital has been solved, and the next thing is to see the achievements of General Chen and others. Naturally, I was like an arrow, and of course there was no need to stay here. ”

"This time, if there is no Childe's conspiracy, and it takes less than 100 people to stick to the West City Gate, it is really difficult to say the outcome of the Middle Capital City. If it is really irreparable, including Chen, they are all sinners of the imperial court, and there is no redemption for a hundred deaths. ”

Xiong Chu smiled slightly: "General Chen's words are too much, as far as those conspiracies and tricks, you adults can understand it if you calm down a little and think about it." After all, we are only dealing with a group of displaced people, and they do not have systematic military literacy. Lord Chen didn't go after the enemy, did he come here with the intention of leaving me here?"

"Childe is too worried. Chen Hongzu shook his head: "Childe is my life-saving benefactor, and later I spent the blessing of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and I doubted Childe." I saw Childe all the way west, so I must come over to make amends to Childe. ”

"From a small point of view, Gongzi is my benefactor Chen. In general, Childe is the benefactor of the entire Middle Capital. Childe is above, please accept Chen's worship!"

Prince Xiong knew that Chen Hongzu would have the following, so he accepted him very calmly.

Sure enough, after Chen Hongzu hugged his fists and gave a deep salute, he said solemnly: "Childe, someone Chen admires your broad mind. But Chen someone eats the king's lu, and he wants to be loyal to the king. Chen doesn't want to be an enemy of Gongzi, if one day the court gives an order, Chen will definitely fight to the death. ”

"Hehehe, it's okay!" Prince Xiong smiled: "When the husband has clear grievances, it should be like this! Although I don't want to see that day, but if it really comes to that situation, let's drink three bowls first, and then fight to the death, it's not impossible." ”

"It's a deal!"

Xiong Chu and Chen Hongzu high-fived as an oath, and then said goodbye.

Neither of them expected that Chen Hongzu would become a prophecy.

More than ten years later, Chen Hongzu personally commanded the western expedition, fought under the city of Hengzhou until the whole army was annihilated, and finally died of exhaustion, realizing today's oath. That's all for later.

Xiong Chu is not a god, it is impossible to know how the situation will develop in the future, his purpose is to disappear from the sight of people with intentions as much as possible, and not to hang his tail behind him.

Half a month later, Xiong Chu led everyone to bypass Huoqiu County and go south into the northern foot of Dabie Mountain.

Due to the fact that he had reached the point of being sleepy and tired, Xiong Chu led Mandeli and the White Phoenix Guards to make a surprise attack last night and took Jinzhai Town as a temporary base for his rest.

There were no officers and soldiers in the Jinzhai Town Inspection Division, only one patrol commander from Jiupin, with one hundred and thirty-six archers.

This archer is not a regular army of the imperial court, but a strong man drawn from the local armor, so the inspection department does not belong to the guard.

The inspection department is competent in capturing deserters, prisoners, thieves, etc., and is divided into 200, 100, and 30 arrests, and rewards and punishments are given with reference to whether there is negligence. "If there are robbers and deserters who gather to rob the people, they can capture those who can eliminate the harm of the people" and "Capture those who forge treasure money and counterfeit seals, and play a role in the promotion." ”

The primary responsibility of the Inspection Department is to "capture deserters, prisoners, and thieves", so although their rank is not high, they can interfere in the affairs of the army, which shows that the origin is not small.

The worst thing is that the imperial court has set a specific target for the number of arrests for the "political achievements" of the Inspection Department, which is a big problem that cannot be explained.

Xiong Chu was already in the process of escaping, of course, it was impossible to do nothing, and he must take Jinzhai Town as a temporary rest base.

But Prince Xiong feels that he is a killer, and he can't forget his identity at any time.

As a result, the day before yesterday in Caomiao Town, I received a message from the dark line, and then I saw a little woman, Xiong Chu and the others had to listen to another story, and then the twelve girls of the "New Hidden Dragon Killer Group" completed an assassination mission.

This time, Xiong Chu has a request, although it is an assassination mission, he can't kill people in advance. Therefore, the commander of the Jinzhai Town Inspection Department was already lying under Xiong Chu's feet.

The commanders of the Inspection Department have been arrested, and the Yamen of the Inspection Department has naturally been temporarily replaced, so it has become a temporary base for Xiong Chu and others.

At the same time, let Mo Jiuniang have time to get in touch with the Huguang dark line and find a relatively safe route home.

Prince Xiong is now sitting on the main seat of the Yamen of the Inspection Department of Jinzhai Town, and Tang Da led twenty-four personal soldiers to temporarily stand on both sides of the hall as officials, and of course there are more than ten people lying on the ground of the hall.

Xiong Chu doesn't like to kneel for others, and he doesn't like others to kneel for himself.

Although he is now preparing to make a temporary cameo appearance in the magistrate's trial, he also doesn't like others to kneel.

After this, the dozen or so guys who were about to be tortured could only lie down.

When an ordinary county magistrate tries a case, he must first shoot a shocking case.

But Xiong Chu is definitely not an ordinary magistrate, not even a magistrate, so he didn't shoot the shock.

He didn't make any movements, only a pair of eagle eyes swept around a dozen people.

Because there was no expression on his face, no one knew what he was thinking.

As a prisoner, if you don't know what the presiding judge is thinking, your heart will naturally go up and down.

When it comes to their own life and death issues, few people can handle them calmly, so the dozen or so guys lying on the ground are now covered like chaff.

Although the cold was oppressive in the late spring, more than a dozen people on the ground were still sweating on their foreheads, not knowing what to do.
