Encountering such a situation, Li Zicheng began to be a little nervous, because in the past year, he has fought with the official army several times, among which he happened to encounter an official army that uses a large number of bird guns, this officer army is very powerful, and the bird guns in his hands are also very sharp, far beyond his previous knowledge of bird guns, these bird guns hit very far, and they are full of power, they can take people's lives two or three hundred steps away, and he was almost killed by this bird gun both times.

When he encountered such an officer twice, he was defeated and fled, which can be said to have lost his armor and suffered heavy losses, so he subconsciously was very jealous of the officers and soldiers who used this kind of sharp bird gun.

This time, I didn't expect to encounter this kind of bird gun among the defenders in Zhenyuan County, but fortunately, there don't seem to be many such bird guns among the defenders, otherwise his men would have been killed in pieces, and now it seems that there should be a small number of officers and soldiers who use this kind of sharp bird guns.

Although Li Zicheng was a little worried, he thought that he was running out of food now, and if he didn't take Zhenyuan County, he might be difficult to get to Yan'an Mansion, so no matter what, he had to take Zhenyuan County, so he endured the fear in his heart and ordered to continue the siege.

Although there were occasional gunshots or the roar of small cannons, there was no volley of muskets and guns, and most of the defenders still used bows and crossbows to fire to stop the exiles from attacking the city.

After observing for a while, Li Zicheng thought that even if there were men and horses in the city that he feared, there should be a small number of them, not enough to pose a big enough threat to him, so he gradually reassured and began to attack the county seat of Zhenyuan more ferociously.

The battle was fought for a morning, and the exiled army failed to capture the county seat of Zhenyuan, Li Zicheng was a little anxious, he now has no surplus grain in his hands, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, he has taken out all the grain in the morning for the soldiers to eat, in order to boost morale, he concealed the news of the food shortage, and only encouraged the soldiers to take the county seat of Zhenyuan in one go, if this battle dragged on until the night and could not beat the county seat of Zhenyuan, he would have no food for his subordinates to eat at night.

At that time, the news of the lack of food will definitely spread to the whole army at once, and then the matter will be in great trouble, so he has no time to delay here, and must take the county seat within a day, and then get food in the city.

So after noon, he finally couldn't help it, and put his most elite cronies into the siege war, and at this time he still had more than 2,000 elite cronies and generals at hand, and once more than 2,000 people were put into the siege war, the situation in Zhenyuan County suddenly began to become critical.

And just after Li Zicheng put the elite into attacking the West Gate, the situation at the West Gate of Zhenyuan County was in danger, and the defenders soon couldn't stop Li Zicheng's attack, and some wandering troops began to climb the city wall and started a white-knuckle battle with the defenders on the city wall.

At this moment, several ringing hammers suddenly rose in the city, and the sharp sound of the hammer pierced the sky, flew high, and then exploded in the air.

After the sound of the dysprosium was lifted into the air, a large number of officers and soldiers armed with muskets suddenly poured out of the city wall, and as soon as this group of officers and soldiers appeared, the situation on the battlefield was changed in an instant.

The wandering army that had just stormed the city was driven off the city wall almost instantly, and then a series of guns were fired from the wall.

Li Zicheng's elite subordinates, who were attacking the city with all their might, were put down in a large area almost instantly, Li Zicheng watched the battle from behind, and realized in his heart that he was afraid that he was going to be in trouble today, and there was actually a hidden officer army in the city that he was most afraid of, and he didn't show up until this morning, and he didn't show up until this time, obviously wanting to lead him to put the elite into the battlefield, and then kill his cronies here in Zhenyuan County.

Li Zicheng was so frightened that he hurriedly ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, now in Zhenyuan County, there is such a terrible official army, so it is impossible to continue to capture Zhenyuan County, and he may have to be wiped out here, so he would rather give up Zhenyuan County, at least first keep his remaining cronies, as long as these people are here, then he still has the possibility of recovery, if these people are all here, then he may have no chance of revival.

And Li Zicheng's subordinates, after being hit by a row of guns on their heads and faces, did not need Li Zicheng to order Mingjin to withdraw their troops, they were already frightened, and they all turned around and ran, but the officers and soldiers on the city wall behind them refused to let them go at all, and a row of fire-guns chased their butts and beat them down, as a result, after each row of guns, a group of Li Zicheng's men fell on the open space outside the city wall.

In the area of two or three hundred meters away from the city wall, the corpses of Li Zicheng's men were scattered everywhere, and the remaining remnants fled out of range like frightened birds.

But before they could recover from their fright, there was another sound of horses' hooves and earth-shattering shouts behind them, and a group of about 200 officers and cavalry appeared behind Li Zicheng's headquarters and swept towards Li Zicheng like a gust of wind.

Li Zicheng turned around and saw the cavalry of the official army attacking from behind, and he was immediately frightened, this cavalry was well-equipped, all of them were wearing light armor, holding a cavalry gun in their hands, and they were speeding towards them.

At the same time, in a forest on their right, a large group of officers and soldiers also poured out at this time, quickly assembled outside the forest, formed a wide horizontal formation, and advanced towards Li Zicheng's remnants in a row.

Li Zicheng only felt dizzy in his head, and knew that it was bad, this time he estimated that he would not be able to escape the doom, and he was completely pitted by this official army.

This official army has actually been ambushed here for a long time, just waiting for him to attack the city, the official army hid some soldiers and horses in the city, hidden, led him to put the elite into the siege, and then took the opportunity to storm his elite men to create a large number of casualties, and then the soldiers and horses who were ambushed outside the city were launched and launched a fierce attack on him.

Li Zicheng didn't have much troops at this time, and there were only more than a thousand core cronies left around him, although there were a lot of cavalry, but at this time they had all become frightened birds, and they could no longer fight against these officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers appeared very suddenly, and while advancing at a long distance, they began to fire in rows at Li Zicheng's headquarters, and the dense guns of bullets whizzed past Li Zicheng's men, and people were constantly knocked to the ground, and the war horses were also frightened by bullets, and began to jump and run around, making a mess for a while.

And the cavalry of the official army, which only had more than 200 people, had already rushed into the battlefield roaring at this time, approaching Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng did not dare to slack off anymore, and immediately began to try to break through and flee with the remnants of the defeated army.

Li Zicheng led the remnants of the army, first to break through in the direction of the north of the city, but at this time the north gate of the city rushed out of an official army, blocking their way, the split is a row of guns, Li Zicheng's several personal soldiers were immediately shot and fell off the horse, Li Zicheng's war horse also took a beat, and fell to the ground on the spot.

His own soldiers hurriedly rescued Li Zicheng and changed a horse to him, Li Zicheng held a sword while waving it and shouted to turn around and turn his horse and run, and began to try to go around the city in the south direction of the city with the remnants of the defeated generals, but then he was scattered by the officers and soldiers indiscriminately, blocking his way.

At this time, the more than 200 official cavalry had caught up with Li Zicheng's remnants, these official cavalry were quite fierce, not to mention superb horsemanship, and the equipment was also very good, just approaching Li Zicheng's remnants, twenty or thirty steps away, they first used a short gun, towards Li Zicheng's men is a bang bang gun.

Before Li Zicheng's personal soldiers could resist, they were overturned, and suddenly became even more chaotic, and the more than 200 official cavalry then slashed into Li Zicheng's chaotic army like a sharp blade, and stabbed straight with their spears, and instantly stabbed over many of Li Zicheng's men.

Li Zicheng was so frightened that he fled, he fled, at this time he had no ability to resist, there were only dozens of pro-soldier generals left, but one by one they also became frightened birds, and they all went crazy to urge them to sit down on the war horses, and began to run desperately.

The official cavalry did not relax, staring at Li Zicheng, who was protected in the middle, and they were also madly urging the war horses to chase wildly.

It didn't take long for Li Zicheng's personal soldiers to be killed by the official cavalry, and finally Li Zicheng was surrounded by this group of official cavalry, and there was no way to escape.

Li Zicheng saw that he was under siege and there was no possibility of escaping and ascending to heaven, so he had to look at the few remaining soldiers around him with a sigh and shouted: "The sky is going to kill me!" Horizontal and vertical is death, and today you will fight with them with me! ”

After calling out, Li Zicheng brandished his favorite sword, shook the reins violently, and rushed towards the official cavalry with a wild scream......

Yu Xiaotian looked at the sword sent by Hong Chengchou on the table, picked it up gently, pressed the tension spring, and there was a crisp click, and the sword popped out of the scabbard, revealing a trace of coldness.

Yu Xiaotian grabbed the hilt of the sword and slowly pulled the sword out of its scabbard, looked at the sword carefully, and said, "It's really a good sword!" It's a pity that you used to cast a pearl! With that, he sighed softly and returned the sword to its sheath.

Li Zicheng's downfall, for him, also completely let go of a stone in his heart, although he and Li Zicheng have never met, and there is not even a direct conflict of interest, but as a ruler, there is no room for maneuver between him and Li Zicheng, let alone become friends.

Li Zicheng's storage zài, for the current Ming Dynasty, is a cancer, which must be removed in order to return the Central Plains to a peace, so as long as Li Zicheng does not die one day, then he will not be able to let go of this stone for a day.
