Now that the fierce battle of Wuyang is in full swing, and the nest is about to be lost, Liu Zongmin is no longer arrogant, and now he doesn't dare to stand up, so he has to send cavalry to urgently ask Li Zicheng for help.

With a distance of more than 100 miles, if one person rides in two and runs with all his might, it will not take one day and one night to reach Nanzhao County, where Cao Ying is located.

In the past two days, Li Zicheng has worked hard and constantly met with the important generals of Cao Ying, especially He Yilong and Yang Chengzu, He Yilong himself is the leader of the Fifth Battalion of the Revolutionary Left, and he plays a pivotal role in the brave and good fighting Fifth Battalion of the Revolutionary Left, which must be won over; As for Yang Chengzu, he is the number one general under Luo Rucai, who controls the most elite cavalry under Luo Rucai, and is also a very prestigious general in Cao Ying!

To Li Zicheng's relief, in the past two or three days, these Cao Ying soldiers have lived very peacefully, there are not a few troublemakers, and the hundreds of years old boys have any dissatisfaction or doubts in their hearts, and they have not come out, as long as there are a few more days, it is not impossible to recover Cao Ying.

is the only He Yilong and Yang Chengzu, these two people just don't buy Li Zicheng's account, even if Li Zicheng tried his best to speak, together with the most eloquent Song Xiance personally went out, both of them were false and wronged, and did not give a clear answer.

Killed all?

Li Zicheng is really a little reluctant, thousands of troops are easy to obtain, and one general is hard to find, not to mention that the two of them have tens of thousands of elite horsemen in their hands, and if they kill the two of them, there is not much left of the combat power of these tens of thousands of elite horses!

Just when Li Zicheng hesitated, the cavalry asking for help arrived in Cao's camp!

"King Chuang, King Chuang!"

The cavalry went straight into Li Zicheng's temporary tent, knelt on the ground, and said urgently: "King Chuang, the night before yesterday, the main force of the Ming army raided Wuyang County, blew up the city wall with gunpowder, and launched a fierce attack on Wuyang City. ”

"What?"

Li Zicheng, who was lying on the bookcase, stood up suddenly, shocked and angry: "Damn the Ming army, why is it the Ming army again?" What did Liu Zongmin and Li Yan eat? They now have at least tens of thousands of troops in their hands, can't they withstand the attack of the Ming army? ”

The cavalry said astringently: "King Chuang, now the city wall of Wuyang City has been blown down, and the Ming army is all elite troops, almost thirty or forty thousand people, Wuyang City is really a little bad......"

Li Zicheng felt a toothache, what should I do? Immediate Reinforcement? Where is it so easy? Now the incorporation of Cao Ying is a critical time, at this time to withdraw all their elite forces, then this operation will be wasted, without the deterrence of powerful force, there will definitely be many of these people will take the opportunity to make trouble, and if they don't do it, they will stab themselves at a critical time!

However, not to withdraw troops to help? What about Wuyang? Luoyang, Kaifeng, Ruzhou, Baofeng, Xiangcheng, all the way, the camp has lost a large number of cities, if even Wuyang is lost, most of Henan will fall into the hands of the Ming army again, the most terrible thing is that their tens of thousands of troops but what to do? With the soldiers of Cao Ying, it must be that Wuyang's army is his descendant, if the casualties of the descendant army are too heavy, how can he control the situation?

"Strategist, what do you say we should do now?"

Li Zicheng gritted his teeth and asked.

Song Xiance frowned, and replied slowly: "King Chuang, we can't sit idly by, Wuyang has our tens of thousands of troops, and at the same time, we also have newly transported grain and grass, if we really lose it, we will be completely in trouble!" However, we can't immediately come back to help, and now we have lost all our efforts to return to help, Cao Ying's 100,000 army, we can recover two percent of it, even if it is good, and we have added several powerful enemies to ourselves, the gains outweigh the losses, or we have lost a powerful ally! ”

"So, how is that good?"

Li Zicheng said anxiously.

Song Xiance muttered: "Immediately send a messenger to tell Liu Zongmin and Li Yan that they must defend Wuyang City, five days, five days, they need to hold on to Wuyang City for at least five days, and within five days, lose Wuyang City, behead!" After five days, if they lose Wuyang City, they can be punished! That is to say, we must rush back to Wuyang within five days, and the time for me to flow out is only two days, and within two days, surrender the princes of Cao Ying, whether it is coercion or inducement, we must surrender them! If it really doesn't work, then you can only cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and never suffer in the future! ”

Li Zicheng gritted his teeth and replied: "Okay, just follow the strategy of the military division!" Send an order to Liu Zongmin and Li Yan, defend Wuyang City, and wait for the army to come back! Come on, immediately go and invite the generals of Cao Ying! ”

It didn't take long for the generals in Cao's camp to come to the tent one after another.

"Brothers, I, Li Zicheng, have shown the greatest sincerity, and now it is time for you to give me a satisfactory answer. Do you agree to merge your troops into the camp? ”

Li Zicheng shouted in a deep voice.

The generals in Cao's camp looked at each other, did they surrender or not? Now that Li Zicheng has reached the time to see the poor dagger, he agrees, then joins the camp, and follows Li Zicheng to fight the world in the future; If you don't agree, you can only die here, and you will definitely not be able to escape Li Zicheng's next massacre!

"Since King Chuang asked, then I, Yang Chengzu, will join the camp, but, King Chuang, don't forget the conditions that you promised me and my brothers!"

never expected that Yang Chengzu would take the lead in standing up and surrendering!

Li Zicheng was surprised, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Haha, Chengzu, the so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, rest assured, as long as you sincerely take refuge in the camp, there will definitely be one of you in the future of the country!" ”

"What about me?"

He Yilong on the side asked coldly.

Li Zicheng was stunned and wondered: "What? Brother Yilong, have you figured it out? ”

He Yilong said coldly: "You gave Chengzu a position of Hou Ye, and you want to use a Hou Ye's position against me in the future?" Hey hey ......"

Obviously, He Yilong is not satisfied, joke, Yang Chengzu is just a general under Luo Rucai, and he is the leader of the Fifth Battalion of the Revolutionary Left, and now Lao Huihui is dead, as long as He Yilong raises his arms, at least more than 10,000 people in the two battalions will follow in his footsteps!

Li Zicheng immediately laughed and said, "Brother Yilong, isn't it a title?" Didn't the Ming Court promise Luo Rucai the land of Henan? As long as you help me complete the great cause, then I will make you the Duke of Liang, the governor of Henan, and the governor of Henan! ”

I have to say that Li Zicheng, as a generation of heroes, still has this courage, as soon as he makes a move, he is a national duke, and he is also the top Duke of Liang among the dukes, in order to envelop the people of Cao Ying, Li Zicheng is a big sacrifice of wealth this time, but it is a pity that Luo Rucai, in order to test Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng took out the King of Qin and the land of Guanzhong, but the result still couldn't make Luo Rucai tempted!

"In that case, then I, He Yilong, am willing to obey your orders!"
