Chapter 1003: A Battle to the Death?

The rogues are probably no strangers to the Jiangning army, for no other reason, the name of the Jiangning army is too loud, and the destruction of Jiannu and the suppression of pirates has made the current Mongolian tribes obedient, because the unsatisfied tribes have long been subdued by the Jiangning army with guns and artillery.

What the...... Can't beat or accept? Then you'll just disappear.

How could the rogues not know about such a powerful army, but although the reputation of the Jiangning Army is great, the Jiangning Army has only been active in Liaodong and the south over the years, so no one thought that they would one day face this army.

After muttering a word, Gao Yingxiang seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked, "What about Ge Liyan?" How is he? ”

"I don't know."

Li Zicheng lowered his head.

"I was ordered by He Dangjia to resist the Ming army, but the brothers only held out for a while and were defeated by the Ming army, and I fled back with the rout, and I don't know what happened to He Dangjia."

The rogues in the lobby all stopped eating and drinking at this moment, and looked at Li Zicheng with different expressions one by one, and the sudden appearance of Jiang Ningjun was tantamount to pouring cold water on their heads for them who were originally elated to win Meng Jin.

Gao Yingxiang still asked with the same expression: "Zicheng, how many people have come to Jiangningjun this time, and what is the strength?" ”

Hearing Gao Yingxiang's question, Li Zicheng took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, and then replied: "The day before yesterday, I took my brothers to Henan Mansion to investigate the situation of the Ming army, and encountered the Jiangning Army's night guards on the way.

They could even fire on their horses, but with just one volley, most of my ten brothers were knocked down, and the rest were killed by them with 10,000 enemies, and the whole process did not exceed half a cup of tea.

In the battle the day before yesterday, He Dangjia originally planned to use the terrain to ambush them on both sides of the Wild Boar Ridge, but they did not expect to be seen through by them, and the Jiangning army soon launched a strong attack on both sides of the Wild Boar Ridge, and our 7,000 brothers only lasted less than an hour before collapsing. ”

"You!" A bearded man suddenly stood up, slapped the table and pointed at Li Zicheng and said loudly: "It is clear that you are greedy for life and afraid of death that led to the defeat of the army, and then ran back from He Dangjia in Wild Boar Ridge regardless of yourself, people like you who escaped from the battle should be dragged out to enforce the family law, and the lightest one will have three knives and six holes!" ”

Li Zicheng knew this person, this was He Jin, one of the thirty-six battalions nicknamed "Zuo Jin King", and he was also He Yilong's cousin, and when he heard that He Yilong had lost the battle, he immediately poured his anger on his head.

It's just funny that he actually shouted out the words of using the family law to deal with Li Zicheng, but this is not surprising, most of the rogues are reckless, and they are engaged in the business of licking blood with knives, and they are born with no fear of things like national law.

However, Li Zicheng is not a person who swallows his anger, he sneered, "He Dangjia, I know that you and He Yilong are cousins, but you don't want to blame me for the defeat."

I Li Zicheng is just a small sentinel team, and he is only responsible for investigating news on weekdays, but you can tell me, why did I cause the defeat of the 7,000 army? ”

As soon as Li Zicheng said this, He Jin couldn't help but be dumbfounded for a while. The leaders in the hall also started to talk about it, and many people showed ugly and sarcastic expressions in their eyes.

What people say is not wrong at all, Li Zicheng is just a sentinel team, and there are only about a dozen people under his hands at best, but now He Jin wants to put the charge of He Yilong's defeat on his head, this can't be justified, and there is no such imposition of the crime.

There was even a voice in the crowd, "Second He, we all know that you have a good relationship with your cousin, but we don't need to be so embarrassed by a small team officer, right?" If you have the ability, you will lead your own men and horses to rescue the boss of the He family! ”

He Jin is also a short-tempered master, and when he heard this, his eyes stood up with a glare, "Xue Rengui, Lao Tzu is going to take care of your, do you want to have a competition with me?" ”

"Fight, fight, who's afraid of whom!" The other party also slapped the table and stood up, seeing that the two were about to pinch each other.

"Enough!"

Gao Yingxiang's voice sounded, although it was not loud, but it immediately stopped the figures of the two people who were about to fight, and the people next to them took the opportunity to persuade the two to go back.

Gao Yingxiang ignored the two of them who were like cross-eyed, and he asked Li Zicheng, who was standing in place, "Zicheng, you fought with the Ming army." How many men and horses do they have, and how long does it take for the Ming army to reach Mengjin according to your estimates? ”

Li Zicheng said without thinking: "I have taken a look, the number of the Ming army is at least not less than 10,000 or even more, and the artillery baggage is also a lot, so the action should not be fast, so it will be able to reach Mengjin the day after tomorrow at the earliest." ”

"Hmm......"

Gao Yingxiang glanced at everyone: "Brothers, the Jiangning Army is about to arrive, how do you think our righteous army should deal with it?" ”

"Then you don't need to say, hit the fuck."

He Jin said loudly: "Others say how powerful Jiang Ningjun is, but I don't believe it. Our rebel army now has an army of 200,000 people, twenty dozen one, that is, everyone can drown them with a spit on them. Didn't Li Zicheng say that this Jiangning army is well-equipped and has a lot of baggage, and when they are defeated, all these baggage and equipment will become ours, and then the ranks of our righteous army will be even stronger. ”

"Yes, He Dangjia is right, the Jiangning army is one or two thousand people who died, and we can pile them to death even if we use people."

"I'm afraid of him, others say that the Jiangning Army is the strongest army in the Ming Dynasty, and it seems to me that it is also two shoulders and one head, and it will be cut into two by Lao Tzu, and it will be a mother."

Soon, the hall began to become chaotic again, and it looked like a group of demons dancing wildly.

With the unanimous consent of everyone, Gao Yingxiang ordered the troops to be assembled, and even the troops in Mengxian and Huaiqing Prefecture on the other side of the Yellow River were also mobilized to prepare for a decisive battle with the Jiangning army.

It was in this situation that the entire Mengjin began to get busy, the old and weak women and children in the rogue began to be ordered to strengthen the city wall and carry materials, while the young Zhuang were given rudimentary weapons and asked to stick to the city wall, and the various leaders also gathered their own old battalion soldiers and horses, and one by one they were ready to fight to the death with the upcoming Jiangning army.
