[My WeChat public account: A few words of microwords, released the picture and text of the military uniform, welcome to see. 】

In front of the soldiers of the Guards Battalion, who cooperated closely, had extraordinary martial arts, and had a tenacious will to fight, Zhang Dingguo only fought for seven or eight rounds, and found that there were only seven or eight soldiers left around him, and the rest were either scattered or killed in battle.

Looking at the desperate eyes of the soldiers around him, Zhang Dingguo's heart was like ashes. Just when the thought of drawing his sword and killing himself came to his heart, suddenly, a clear voice sounded: "They are all compatriots of the same country, although they are rebellions, they will not be wiped out." Who will come, the same name as above, the Ming Royal Guard Legion has never killed prisoners! ”

Zhang Dingguo was still about to insist, but he suddenly heard a guard next to him crying: "General...... King...... The eight kings have run away......"

In the distance, in the face of the fact that as soon as his main force engaged, the Beijing division did not even hold out for half an hour before the ice and snow collapsed, Zhang Xianzhong's will to fight collapsed, and he decisively pulled out the camp and ran south, without mercy.

Seeing this, what else could Zhang Dingguo do, he sat on the ground with a wry smile, closed his eyes, and let the mermaid flesh, but he couldn't say the word surrender.

Seeing this, the other peasant armies of the front army finally stood up and dissolved, and shouted one after another: "I surrender!" ”

"Disarm or kill!"

"Don't kill me, I won't fight ......"

"Surrender, ......"

……

In the distance, Zhang Xianzhong had indeed begun to flee.

Zhang Wenxiu was thinking of brotherhood: "Dingguo is still trapped in the army!" ”

Zhang Kewang reprimanded angrily: "If you don't have time to take care of yourself, where can you take care of anything else?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong saw that his brothers were arguing, and suddenly shouted: "What are you making noise at this time?" Don't take advantage of the lack of officers and soldiers, major generals, and leave this place. Do you want to stay and die? ”

Ainengqi is still called Zhang Nengqi, and at this moment he is looking at the defeated battlefield. Looking at the people around him in panic, he whispered, "Father-in-law." Where do we flee? ”

"Li Zicheng in the west is a hungry wolf who eats people, he can't go!" Zhang Xianzhong said in a deep voice: "Go to Hunan!" ”

Zhang Kewang looked north at the city wall, and sighed heavily: "Pity the six superintendents and other things in vain......

Zhang Xianzhong didn't answer when he heard this, and the soldiers were gone, so what was the point of getting those so-called institutions in Wuchang before?

Of course, the words to boost morale still have to be said.

Zhang Xianzhong said loudly: "When we conquer Hunan next, according to the Yangtze River, we can also resist the official army again!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Xianzhong continued to pull the road and run wildly.

Zhang Xianzhong said that he would rely on the Yangtze River to resist the officers and troops, whether it was true or not. But he was right about one thing. That's ...... Zhu Cihong really couldn't pursue Zhang Xianzhong with few troops at the moment. The role of the more than 100 cavalry can only be used as scout heralds.

Zhu Cihong was not interested in chasing and killing Zhang Xianzhong, he just requisitioned some people in Wuchang City to clean up the battlefield and then marched towards Wuchang City.

Soon, when Zhu Cihong's banner was planted on the gate tower of Wenchang Gate, a news came out that made the people in Wuchang City feel complicated.

"The official army has recovered the provincial capital of Wuchang!"

……

Zhu Cihong entered the city gate tower, but he was not in a hurry to let people send back the good news of the good news, he called Gu Jiang: "Wait for the Jiangnan trend to brew a little, and then send the good news back." ”

After speaking, Zhu Cihong saw He Fengsheng leading a group of officials at the door of Wenchang Gate to guard the door.

Seeing He Fengsheng, a former bachelor, Zhu Cihong naturally had to be humble and courteous. hurriedly went over to help the old man and said, "He Lao tormented me." ”

"Your Highness recovers Wuchang and destroys his country in one day, how can he not be a courtesy to the old man? What's more, the old man still wants to thank His Highness for saving his life! "He Feng Shengzheng said.

Zhu Cihong heard this. Seeing Yang Jue on the side, he couldn't hide his smile when he was wearing a brocade robe.

Hearing this, Zhu Cihong obviously thought about what would happen.

Historically, He Fengsheng insisted on not wanting to surrender to the enemy after being captured. is so strong that he is unwilling to survive in Wuchang City, which Zhang Xianzhong has breached, and after being released by Zhang Xianzhong, he still threw himself into the lake and died.

It was supposed that no one in history saved He Fengsheng. Now there is one more Zhu Cihong. In the face of this first-class gentry in the city, the Jinyi guards who stayed in the city certainly paid a lot of attention. As soon as he saw that He Fengsheng was really caught by Li Dingguo as in history, and was released by Zhang Xianzhong and still looking for death, he immediately revealed that Zhu Cihong was attacking in the starry night, which made He Fengsheng desperate for death.

Historically, Wuchang's defenders Zuo Liangyu ran away early in the morning, so that the upper and lower levels lost confidence that Wuchang could be defended.

But this time, after He Fengsheng learned that Zhu Cihong would come to the rescue, he had more hope and less will to die.

Knowing this section, Zhu Cihong smiled at Yang Jue to signal that he knew, and then talked and laughed with He Fengsheng all the way into the city.

Fifteen hundred guards battalion, not too much, but definitely a lot less.

At least, it is enough for Zhu Cihong to set up a shelf for the aftermath.

The first is to close the four gates and defend the city again.

This, of course, requires an expansion of troops. However, Zhu Cihong had a lot of experience in this, he imitated the story in Kaifeng, called the good family in the city to recruit as compulsory soldiers, and then opened a military academy on the spot to train new soldiers.

At this time, Zhu Cihong burned the documents that went out to appoint puppet officials one by one, so that the people could settle down, and even made these soldiers and generals who originally voted for Zhang Xianzhong excitedly queue up one by one to sign up for the military academy.

As the officials of the Third Division of Huguang ran back again, the control of Huguang was finally slowly brought into control.

At the same time, Zhu Cihong asked Zhang Xu, a clerk, to follow He Fengsheng to contact the Huguang gentry and grain merchants.

This time, it was no longer Hengxin Commercial Bank that took the lead, but Zhu Cihong personally took action to convene a gentry grain merchant who had surplus grain to sell or planned to sell in various parts of Huguang.

With the victorious power of Crown Prince Zhu Cihong's recovery of Wuchang, and the famous local gentry leader He Fengsheng, the Huguang gentry naturally echoed everything.

In particular, the gentry in Hunan are even more excited than those in Hubei.

Seeing that Zhang Xianzhong was beaten by Zhu Cihong in Hubei, and in the face of Zhang Xianzhong's attack, the Huguang gentry naturally hoped that Zhu Cihong could save the people from fire and water.

Finally, when the time fell on June 2, the sixteenth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cihong called Zhang Xu to determine the list of participants in Zhu Cihong's preparation meeting for the last time.

At this time, Zhu Cihong finally got a reply from Jiangnan.

That's right......

The good news of Wuchang's victory, after the slow spread of shipping, finally arrived in Nanjing.

It's just that when Yu Xingjian, the clerk with Zhu Cihong's order, had just arrived in Nanjing, he was stunned by the news flying here.

I saw that Yu Xingjian casually withdrew a scholar, so he inquired about the movements of Nanjing these days, and after a long time, Yu Xingjian sighed: "If you don't do it, you won't die!" (To be continued.) )
