Chang Yu raised his eyebrows: "What are you talking about so early in the morning? Liu Zeqing dug up your ancestral grave and kept shouting that he was going to kill him. Did Lao Jiu and the others come back intact?"
"Lao Jiu and the others were turned away from the city and almost fell into the hands of thieves. This is a personal vendetta. Liu Zeqing massacred the city and looted. This was a blatant violation of law and discipline. Killing him ten times would not be an exaggeration," Wuzhong said angrily. Chang Yu was startled, and his face instantly He darkened: "What did you say?"
"This old dog deserves to die!" After hearing what Wuzhong said, Chang Yu beat the wall angrily: "I have repeatedly ordered him not to disturb the people, but he would have just killed people and massacred the city! How can those who don't kill him be worthy of those who don't kill him? Kill the people unjustly!"
"The governor gave me a man and a horse, now I'm going to kill him!" Wuzhong said bitterly.
Chang Yu was silent, breathing heavily, and his face was gloomy. He took a long breath and said, "Let him live for a few more days!"
"Governor" Wu Zhong shouted anxiously: "All the witnesses and material evidence are there, why should I leave him here?"
Chang Yu turned to look at him: "I will kill him, but this is not a good opportunity!"
Wuzhong was still confused and wanted to entangle him. Chang Yu waved his hand and asked Li Muchian to tell him, and then went down to the city and left. Wuzhong dragged Li Muchian and said: "Niubi, tell me what happened? Why can't you kill him now?" ?”.
Li Muxian raised his eyebrows: "What is your name, Pindao?"
"If I don't call you awesome, I'd call you poor!" Wu Zhong almost choked Li Muxian to death with one sentence. If he couldn't beat him, he would have done it. He rolled his eyes helplessly: "Killing Liu Zeqing at this time will cause chaos..."
At this time, the bandit army was fleeing. Chang Yu surrounded him. If Liu Zeqing moved, he would open an opening to the west. It would be good if the bandit surrendered. If he did not surrender and just ran through the gap and escaped into Shandong, it would be bad. If he did not surrender, it would be bad. Liu Zeqing is a veteran warlord. He has his own troops and is watching from the wall. Unless he can be captured with one blow, he will inevitably rebel if he fails. He has been entrenched in Jinan for many years and it will not be easy to defeat him. What's more, the Ming Dynasty cannot afford it at this time. If he causes trouble again, otherwise when Chongzhen summoned troops to serve the king, he did not go. Not only did Emperor Chongzhen not dare to deal with him, he also sent people to send money to express condolences. He was afraid that this big warlord would rebel...
After talking for a while, Wu Zhong finally understood and couldn't help but cursed: "Can't we really cure this bastard?"
"Li Zicheng must be powerful enough. The young governor almost played him to death. Liu Ze is going to deal with him. The young governor just doesn't have time to deal with him at this time. He will definitely deal with him when the war here is over." Li Muchian said hehely.
Wu Zhong looked at him with a puzzled look on his face: "How do you know everything about this newbie like you?"
Li Muxian snorted: "I have learned the secret of heaven from my ancestor. Everything is clear at a glance. How can it be compared to ordinary people like you?" As he said it, he drifted away. When he looked at his appearance, he felt like he was floating in the world. Wuzhong Muttered: "Yes, you've deceived yourself even with your arrogance?"
In the distance, Li Muxian stumbled and almost fell down the city.
Dozens of miles northeast of Zhending City, on the banks of the Cihe River, tens of thousands of rebel troops gathered in groups and retreated. They all looked tired and dejected. They were Li Guo's tribe who were defeated yesterday. They fled in one breath after being defeated. After traveling for forty or fifty miles, Gu Kecheng's tribe who originally fled eastward also came to join them, and then Luo Hu also arrived.
At this time, Luo Hu immediately stood by the river. He glanced at the soldiers on the riverside with a solemn expression. He couldn't help closing his eyes and sighing. He suffered heavy losses in yesterday's battle. His Zhenshan Camp was also broken up. Only half of the three thousand troops came back. So at this time, When the morale of the army was in decline, they received the military order early in the morning and immediately mobilized troops to besiege Zhending Mansion to rescue Li Guo!
Zhending Mansion must be occupied by officers and soldiers at this time. With the little eunuch sitting in charge and no heavy troops in hand, how can he break the city with such decadence? Luo Hu hated Chang Yu in his heart because for the first time in his life, he felt powerless.
.
When Gu Kecheng saw this, he wanted to come to comfort him, but was frightened by his cold eyes. He knew that Luo Hu was angry that he didn't come back to help in time at the critical moment and ran away.
What's more, in that situation, you can't even protect yourself, and you will fall into a trap later. How can you care about others? They would be stupid if they didn't run away. They might be captured like Li Guo now.
However, the military orders were like mountains and must not be disobeyed. Luo Hu was appointed as the commander-in-chief. It would not be a good idea to be so discouraged. Gu Kecheng bit the bullet and said forward: "The Lord asked us to be the vanguard to siege the city. There will be reinforcements behind to carry the baggage to attack the city. At this time, the morale is high."
If you are in the doldrums, Huzi, if you continue to act like this, then we still have to fight this battle? You Zhenshan camp used to be so strong and strong, but you can't bear it after a defeat?"
"Fart! Everyone in our Zhenshan camp is a tough guy. They can't be struck by thunder without being blown by the wind. How can we take this little bad guy seriously?" After all, Luo Hu was young and easily provoked, so he summoned his subordinates to mobilize the entire army.
Heading towards Zhending Mansion.
Gu Kecheng looked at his back with a playful smile. There were soldiers coming from afar to report. He found that there were friendly troops and countless refugees thirty miles away in the northeast.
It seemed that King Chuang was coming. Gu Kecheng breathed a sigh of relief. With the main force behind him and countless cannon fodder, he could still fight with the officers and soldiers again, so he summoned his subordinates to forcibly inject chicken blood, promising to fight again to massacre the city and avenge him.
.
At half past noon, Luo Hugu Kecheng sent troops to march towards Zhending City. A few miles later, he was discovered by officers and soldiers on horseback and reported to Zhending City urgently.
Coming again?
Chang Yu, who was about to have lunch, heard the news and was very confused. The frequency of such attacks was a bit high. He was beaten to such a degree yesterday, and he rushed to get beaten today. What was going on in his head.
"Superintendent, I'm afraid the intruders are coming," Li Muchian reminded in a low voice. Chang Yu was startled: "We have reached the boundary of the land now. Isn't Li Yan a little too anxious to pursue him?" He then sent an order to the generals to discuss the matter.
So Huang Degong was pulled out of the prison, and the Hutuo River was put into combat readiness. The spies reported every moment and paid close attention to the movements of the rebels.
"Let's do it when we get here." Huang Degong said with a careless expression, "By the way, aren't you going to let Li Guo go out to recruit him to surrender? Do you want to attack him first if he fails to surrender? Or do you want to fight and then recruit him to surrender?"
Chang Yu was silent for a while: "Let's wait until the intruder arrives. He must be here to save Li Guo. Besides, he is dissatisfied and wants to fight with me again, and then he will go south." He said with a sneer: "Now that he's here
Regardless of whether you surrender or not, it’s not that easy if you want to leave. It’s useless for me and the governor to prevent you from being detached.”
"Do you think the intruders will attack us from east to west? It seems that they are going to attack the city and surround Zhending City, but they go directly south to break through the defense line and escape." Huang Degong actually said such a thing, but Chang Yu was startled.
, this is extremely possible, and it does not rule out that the intruder will treat him the same way as he did. Previously, he tricked the refugees into besieging the city and made Ma Shiyao trapped inside, unable to move. Now he can also detach a group of troops to surround the city and pretend to attack the city.
It's not impossible for him to attack like lightning and break through the riverbank defense line and fly away in the dust.
"So, you hurry out of the city and return to Putuohe. If you fail to recruit him, we won't be afraid of the intruder attacking from both sides. Just fight him. It's not that easy to break the city. But if he sieges the city here and doesn't move, he can attack on the other side."
On the river bank defense line, you can resist him for a while and let him pass, then come over and attack with this governor to kill the people outside the city, and then go after him..."
Chang Yu explained, and Huang Degong left in a hurry. At this time, Tan Ma came to report that the bandit army had reached Zhending City thirty miles away, and that there were refugees swarming further northeast and farther away.
Chang Yu looked from the top of the city into the distance, and could faintly see an army slowly advancing in the sky. He let out a long breath and realized that the intruders had finally arrived. He ordered the whole city to enter a state of war readiness, banned the people from taking to the streets, and mobilized Ma Shiyao's men to defend the city immediately.
...After some preparations, the formation of the rebel army could be vaguely seen a few miles away. He looked back at Li Guo and joked: "You should go back later, hold your arms and cry with your uncle."
"Lord Governor, you don't seem to be nervous at all." Li Guo ignored his mocking question and asked,
"What do I have to be afraid of? What will happen when I come? Can you beat me?" Chang Yu shrugged, and Li Guo smiled and said nothing.
