Seeing that Wu Qigong and the soldiers had fled without a trace, the Taiping soldiers put away their guns and threw off their legs to chase after them.

"Order, stop the pursuit!"

Suddenly, Li Xiucheng, who was riding on a horse, gave an unbelievable order.

The order was conveyed, and the soldiers in the army stopped.

Li Xiucheng has a high prestige in the army, so that the soldiers and generals can be convinced, so that the order can be carried out. If it was ordered by other generals, it would never have been achieved. Rao is like this, and all the soldiers' eyes are looking at Li Xiucheng in unison, with a puzzled look in their eyes.

Why did you miss a great opportunity?

Incomprehensible!

A general came to Li Xiucheng's side, bowed and saluted, and then asked, "General, just now you had the opportunity to destroy Wu Qigong in one fell swoop, why did you suddenly change your attention and stop chasing it?" You must know that everyone is ready to annihilate Wu Qigong with all their strength. We chased from Yangzhou to Jiangsu, galloping all the way, but you let Wu Qigong leave every time, so that the brothers are puzzled! ”

"General Li has no last resort, and his wits are unparalleled, and the villain knows that you are doing this for a purpose. But do you want to give your brothers a thorough idea of what the situation is? ”

The person who spoke was white-faced, and he was only a ten-year-old young man. But when the young man looked at Li Xiucheng, his eyes were full of infinite admiration, and he was impressed by everything Li Xiucheng showed.

Even, Li Xiucheng's every move made the young man feel that he was a fan.

This young man is simply a star-chasing clan in later generations.

As soon as the young man's words came out, the rest of the generals and soldiers became emboldened and asked Li Xiucheng to explain. After all, these soldiers do not want to be kept in the dark.

Especially every time Wu Qigong was released, the generals and soldiers were a little discouraged.

Li Xiucheng rode on a horse, condescendingly swept past the generals and soldiers in the army, his eyes were as calm as the vast and deep starry sky, but his face showed a confident look, he waved his sleeves, and said loudly: "If you want to exterminate Wu Qigong, can't you do it the first few times?" With the strength of our army, Wu Qigong can be destroyed after breaking through the Jiangbei camp. ”

The young man immediately asked, "General, what are you going to do?" ”

Li Xiucheng's gaze suddenly sharpened, like the eyes of an eagle, raised his hand and pointed to the stretching mountains, and said: "Yushan is a good place, suitable for burying Wu Qigong and the Manchu soldiers in the Jiangbei camp. However, it was not only to bury Wu Qigong, but also to bury more Qing troops. The general has been chasing Wu Qigong but not killing, just constantly weakening Wu Qigong's troops, which is to let Wu Qigong enter Yushan. As long as Wu Qigong enters Yushan, it is a dead end, and it can be easily exterminated. ”

Li Xiucheng retracted his gaze and continued: "Trap Wu Qigong behind Yushan, and then spread the news, waiting for the Qing army around Changshu County to come to the rescue." We only need to wait for the rabbit in Yushan to eliminate more Qing troops. ”

"Wu Qigong is just a chess piece, not worth mentioning. However, in order to destroy more Qing Demons, it is necessary to leave this chess piece for the time being. More importantly, I need to use Wu Qigong to lure Li Zhen over. Once Li Zhen rescues Wu Qigong with his soldiers, we will be able to defeat Li Zhen in one fell swoop and be ashamed. ”

Li Xiucheng's eyes turned to the direction of Shanghai again, and his eyes flashed with a strong fighting intent.

He was defeated by Li Zhen, with shame in his heart, and was always ready to take revenge.

Lee so-sung knows very well what his goal is? Defeat Li Zhen, step on Shanghai, and completely trample Li Zhen under his feet. It's just that when Li Xiucheng was riding on a horse and talking in high spirits, he didn't know that Li Zhen had quietly come with three thousand elites, and he was already lurking in Yushan.

Li Xiucheng explained, and the generals and soldiers in the army were satisfied.

The young people and many soldiers who admired Li Xiucheng were even more impressed by Li Xiucheng's far-sighted plan.

Li Xiucheng gladly accepted the admiring eyes of the soldiers in the army and ordered the battlefield to be cleaned up.

In this battle, none of the soldiers under Li Xiucheng's command were lost, but the Manchu soldiers suffered countless casualties. After the final results were counted, the Qing army suffered as many as 368 casualties, weakening Wu Qigong's strength by one-third. Li Xiucheng had the army camp at the foot of the mountain, and the soldiers spread the news that Wu Qigong had been surrounded, hoping to attract the Qing army and Li Zhen.

……

In the mountains and forests, Wu Qigong led the soldiers to run wildly.

When he entered the mountains and forests and found that there were no pursuers behind his buttocks, Wu Qigong stopped.

Wu Qigong turned over and dismounted, and sat on the ground in defeat, looking embarrassed. His helmet and armor had fallen off in the process of escaping, and at this time he was sitting on the ground gasping for breath, but his eyes were still staring at the road below the mountain forest, for fear that Li Xiucheng would lead the army to kill again.

With a sweep of his eyes, Wu Qigong found that the soldiers who fled back were all tired and tired, wilted and without energy. At this time, the situation was that the army could not form the army, and the soldiers could not form the army, which made Wu Qigong feel uncomfortable.

There is a lot of trust from Qi Shan!

Wu Qigong sat on the ground, but his mind was full of thoughts.

"Hahaha......"

Suddenly, Wu Qigong laughed loudly, and a bright smile appeared on his face, and he laughed very happily. The sound of laughter came out in the woods, extremely abrupt, and completely out of tune with the current scene.

There was a sense of sadness in the army, but Wu Qigong laughed.

This attitude made the soldiers think that Wu Qigong was crazy.

"Mr. Wu, why are you laughing?" A staff general came to Wu Qigong's side and asked.

Wu Qigong propped himself on the ground with one hand, stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks, and said loudly: "I laugh at Li Xiucheng for being stupid, hopelessly stupid." Previously, if Li Xiucheng had chased us directly, he would have killed us and abandoned our armor, and it would have been difficult for us to escape. But Li Xiucheng gave up the pursuit and wanted to sit and wait for us to go down the mountain, but he made a mistake in thinking so. ”

"We rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, we rely on the water to eat the water, and we hide in the mountains."

"As long as you hide in the mountains and forests and delay time, and wait for Li Zhen to kill, you can immediately remove the danger at hand. Before Lord Qishan died of illness, he had already asked the emperor to let Li Zhen send troops. Li Zhen must have already taken the soldiers on the road, as long as he survived this difficult time, he could be relieved of the danger. ”

Wu Qigong looked at the soldiers in the army triumphantly and looked very happy. It's just that Wu Qigong is still sad in his heart, and he only hopes that Li Zhen can come sooner. Once the ammunition is exhausted, Wu Qigong is almost finished.

"Whoop!!

When the soldiers in the army heard Wu Qigong's words, they all became excited.

The soldiers exchanged heads and whispered to each other, discussing Li Zhen's dispatch in a whisper. Moreover, the soldiers were also looking forward to Li Zhen's early arrival. At the current point, the soldiers can only hope for Li Zhen, and there is no other way.

However, Wu Qigong didn't know Li Zhen, and he didn't understand what Li Zhen's plans were? Even Wu Qigong didn't know that Li Zhen had already arrived in Yushan, but he didn't take the initiative to contact him.
