Chapter 924

In this land, Hong Liao is not Li Xingya's only enemy, let alone the most tricky one.

After the defeat of the Hong army, the morale of the Jiangnan soldiers was low, and everyone only thought about escaping for their lives, and they could no longer form an effective blockade against the Jiangnan army.

The main army was routed and was already crushed. Invisibly, the one who started to be a cold bench has become the protagonist of this war.

Now, the trickiest one is ready to go.

and people who know Li Xingya too well and hang out with Cheng Dalei all day long, what kind of good bird can he be. His ambition as a wolf is naturally not small, how can a small one satisfy his appetite.

Li Xingya's next target must be Yangzhou City.

This battle must be set in Jiangnan.

And standing on the high platform, watching the clouds in the sky, the pride in my heart suddenly arises.

His soldiers have been assembled, forming a phalanx in front of the Hemian, waiting for He's orders.

He waved his hand and spit out a sentence: "Burn it." ”

Wang Dazhu led the people to light torches and poured fire oil and hay on the granary. With a command, several granaries were set on fire, and smoke rose like clouds, and fire was like an evil dragon.

"This, this ......" Zhu Qi stammered: "Why is this all burning?"

"What do you do if you don't burn it, leave it to Li Xingzai to raise soldiers, let's go, it's time for us to make a move." ”

He patted Zhu Qi on the shoulder, then turned over and got on the horse, and the soldier followed closely behind him, and then embarked on the journey.

Zhu Qi is from a Zhuang family, and he values food the most, and he can feel distressed for a long time when he drops a grain of rice on the ground on weekdays. Now, 100,000 quintals of grain have been burned, and Zhu Qi is trembling in pain.

He was a fledgling and still couldn't understand the intent of doing so.

Hong commanded 200,000 troops, Li Xingzai commanded 100,000 troops, and lost a number of them along the way, but with the addition of later prisoners, there are almost 100,000 now.

And with the strength of his men...... Now it is full, but there are only more than 5,000 people.

In such a situation in the south of the Yangtze River, these 5,000 people are like a stone thrown into the lake, unable to stir up any waves.

However, even if it is a small stone, it depends on where it is placed. Thrown into the lake, it naturally can't stir up strong winds and waves, but if you roll down from the snowy mountain, a small pebble can grow into a behemoth.

From the beginning of the operation, the defeated remnants of the defeated soldiers began to be collected along the way, and the team of He snowballed. From the initial 5,000 people, it slowly expanded...... Soon, he and his men had enough strength to participate in this chaotic battle.

But in this way, the speed of your own march will naturally be seriously slowed down. Right now, he only hopes that when he arrives in Yangzhou City, everything will be in time.

The master's move means that each other can guess each other's intentions, step by step, and adapt to the situation. The rest is to see who God favors.

From this point of view, He Dang is qualified to be Li Xingya's opponent.

However, He is a meticulous person and will never pin his victory or defeat on luck.

He thought about it, called Zhu Qi to his side, and said: "You hurry up, go to Yangzhou City, remind Your Majesty to be on guard, and prevent Li Xingzai from stealing the city." ”

"Yes. Zhu Qi agreed, and he was about to leave immediately.

"Sir. Boss Zhu suddenly opened his mouth at this moment and said, "Sir, my subordinates have taken refuge in Mr., and they still haven't done anything yet, so let my subordinates do it." ”

He thought about it for a while, and said: "It's okay, Zhu Qi worked the previous trip, this time it's up to you to do it, be careful along the way, and don't miss a big thing." ”

Boss Zhu agreed, left quickly, and ran in the direction of Yangzhou.

and the same rapid march, right now, he is competing for time with Li Xingzai.

......

Li Xingzai is in a non-stop hurry, he is worthy of being a brave and ruthless person. Knowing that the army was approaching, the speed of the march would inevitably be slowed down. So he ordered Qi Jiguang to lead the army, divided into 3,000 people, led by himself and Ma Chao, and rushed to Yangzhou City.

With 3,000 people in the powerful Yangzhou City, Li Xingzai probably ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and he was not a descendant of the Li family.

These 3,000 people took off their clothes from Jiangnan soldiers and put on makeup to look like Jiangnan soldiers, with the purpose of defrauding Yangzhou City.

These three thousand people are like a sharp dagger, very dangerous, dangerous for themselves and dangerous for the enemy.

One day and one night, at dusk came to the city of Yangzhou.

The guards at the head of the city drew their bows and arrows, and shouted, "Who is coming, and where are you in the army?"

Li Xingzai pinched his throat and said, "We are Marshal Hong's team, open the door quickly, let us enter the city, we have something important to report." ”

"The marshal's ranks?"

The head guard of the city is named Murong Chen, and he is also a capable general under Li Xing. Although Li Xingzai stepped up his march, the news of the defeat at the front still reached here. Therefore, Chang'an City has strengthened its vigilance accordingly.

"Let your leaders enter the city, and the others will stay outside the city for the time being, and only enter the city after confirming their identities. Murong Chen shouted above the city.

Li Xingzai pushed a captive out, and this person shouted loudly: "Murong Chen, I'll go to your mother's house, Lao Tzu, you dare to stop me." ”

Murong Chen paused and said in surprise: "You are ...... Sun Huzi ......"

"What the hell are you talking about, we lost the battle in front, we're all scattered, open the door quickly, and let us in. ”

This Sun Hu and Murong Chen are brothers who have squatted in the trenches, and their friendship is naturally not ordinary, so Li Xingzai planned to open the city gate by fraud, and he also did some homework in advance.

"Brother, don't worry, aren't we preventing the enemy from stealing the city, in other words, there are so many of you, how can you lose the battle. ”

After getting out of the city, he personally opened the city gate, and said while opening the door Murong Chen.

"It's all this time, can they still call......

As soon as the city gate opened a crack, it was forcefully pushed open, Li Xingzai raised his head and smiled, and stabbed his spear out.

"Brother, let's go!" Sun Hu shouted.

But it was too late, Li Xingzai's spear stabbed Murong Chen's heart. Three thousand tiger and wolf soldiers poured into the city gate and launched a battle against the city gate defenders.

This knife really came unexpectedly, and the Yangzhou soldiers were directly beaten with a stick, and they didn't know what the situation was.

In just a short time, Li Xingya occupied the city gate.

When he learned the news, Li Xing almost fell off the dragon bed.

What to do, dispatched 200,000 soldiers and horses to attack Li Xingzai, I thought it was inevitable. Unexpectedly, he suffered a defeat. If you lose, you will be defeated, why did Li Xingya suddenly appear in Yangzhou City.

Li Xing hurriedly ordered the city defense army to attack the city gate occupied by Li Xingzai, and with 3,000 soldiers, it was indeed a little stretched.

But Li Xingzai had to defend to buy time for Qi Jiguang, who was on a hurried march.

"Can we hold it?" asked Ma Chao.

"Your Majesty is reassured. Ma Chao opened his mouth categorically: "You can hold it." ”
