Chapter 792 The Battle of Zhuxian Town
On Li Zicheng's side, he fought inextricably with Zhu Xian's guards, and on that side, Luo Rucai also fought against Henan Governor Fu Zonglong's standard battalion.

Most of the standard battalions under Fu Zonglong were recruited from Lin'an, Yunnan, and Li Benshi, Yang Congyi, Huang Chaoxuan, Chen Shangcai, Kong Chensi and Zhang Xianbi were all from Yunnan.

After days of rushing, the officers and soldiers were already exhausted.But Fu Zonglong, governor of Henan, did not dare to let Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai go west, so he had to hang behind and let the officers and soldiers rest for a while.

When he heard that the rebel army was besieging Zhuxian Town, Fu Zonglong finally couldn't sit still.

Zhuxian Town is called a town, but in reality it is as wealthy as the state capital.Even in the entire Henan Province, it is a big town second only to Kaifeng City, so there must be no loss.

In desperation, Fu Zonglong had no choice but to lead the officers and soldiers to rescue the siege.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived near Zhuxian Town, they heard the sound of a cannon, and immediately three thousand people rushed out.

It is none other than Luo Rucai's "Cao Ying" who has been waiting for a long time.

Although Cao Ying had many mules and horses, not all of them were cavalry.Except for the thousands of cavalry led by Yang Chengzu, the general under his command, the remaining thousand were all infantry on mules and horses.

Everyone is not stupid. Since the division of troops in Mianchi, in addition to the skyrocketing strength of Zhang Shun, the strength of Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong has also increased.

This time Luo Rucai's eastward expedition, apart from gaining some gains in Fengyang Mansion, the biggest gain was getting the refuge of Wang Xuangui, son of Shandong Ju.

Luo Rucai imitated Zhang Shun's old wisdom of appointing Zhang Shenyan and appointed him as the mastermind.

As expected, Wang Xuangui lived up to expectations, and immediately offered him the plan of "feigning an attack on Kaifeng to deceive the officers and soldiers, leading troops westward to control King Shun, and turning south to look at Jingxiang".

Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai followed their plan to achieve what is happening today.

For the rebel army, whether it captured Zhuxian Town or defeated Fu Zonglong's Biao Battalion, it was a success.

Seeing this, Wang Xuangui quickly suggested to Luo Rucai, "There are many officers and soldiers, and if one battalion is destroyed, there will be another battalion, and if one person is killed, there will be another.

"But if our army is short of one man, it will be short of one man, and if it is short of one battalion, it will be short of one battalion. It is not a long-term plan. In this way, it is better to stop the officers and soldiers and wait for Zhu Xian to come down."

"Live Cao Cao" Luo Rucai nodded when he heard the words.

In fact, regardless of what Wang Xuangui said sounded good, it was actually to persuade Luo Rucai to preserve his strength and enjoy the benefits.

Na Luo Rucai was already known for his resourcefulness, how could he not know the hidden meaning in Wang Xuangui's words?
Therefore, Luo Rucai first sent his subordinate Wang Long to lead the infantry to fight, and Fu Zonglong also sent Huang Chaoxuan to lead the [-] infantry to attack first.

Huang Chaoxuan is tall and strong, and he has practiced martial arts well. He is the most fierce among the dental schools under Fu Zonglong.

He was wearing double armor, and rushed to the troops of Wang Long's troops standing in front of him.

Wang Long also refused to give in, and sent soldiers to confront him.

After the two sides fought fiercely for a long time, the troops of the Xuan Department of the Huang Dynasty were exhausted and unable to fight, so they had to retreat a little.

Fu Zonglong dispatched Li Benshi and Zhang Xianbi successively to fight, but they were unable to defeat Wang Long's pawns.

Just when Luo Rucai thought that Fu Zonglong, governor of Henan Province, was out of pocket and could only watch Zhuxian Town being captured, a spies came to report: "Take the plate, there are many cavalry soldiers on the left and right sides of the rebel army, I'm afraid it's not a scam!"

"Could it be Li Chongzhen's Liaodong iron cavalry?" Luo Rucai was startled when he heard that, they had suffered a great loss in Xuzhou, and they were quite afraid of this battalion.

"There are so many banners and horses coming, brothers can't get close, and the number of people can't be counted for a while, maybe there are three thousand if not five thousand." The spies responded quickly.

Luo Rucai and Wang Xuangui looked at each other, wondering and wondering.

He couldn't help but hastily ordered: "Send someone to tell 'Chuang Jiang' that there is another change on the battlefield. Send someone to send an order to Yang Chengzu, let him lead the cavalry to cover the battlefield carefully!"

After dealing with the urgent matter for now, Luo Rucai asked Wang Xuangui: "I don't know if in your opinion, our army should fight and leave?"

Then Wang Xuangui is not the legendary Liu Bowen and Zhuge Liang, the rebel army has received too little information, how can he judge clearly?

Fortunately, he had his own thoughts, thinking: "If you stay and fight, if the battle fails, I will lose face; if you persuade him not to go, the left and right rebels will be safe, and I don't know how many officers and soldiers have come. people."

"At that time, I can touch my upper and lower lips and brag about how dangerous it is, and I can win the reputation of being a god."

Thinking of this, Wang Xuangui vowed to offer his plan: "In my opinion, there must be an army of officers and soldiers, and I have been waiting for a long time."

"If you don't leave the plate at this time, when will you wait? Lean a little, or you will be captured by the officers and soldiers!"

Luo Rucai frowned when he heard the words, he just felt that this person was deceiving him with big words, and he didn't really believe it.

It's just that there is a difference between having a mastermind and not having a mastermind.

When there is no mastermind, Luo Ru can order according to his own judgment.Even if there are fallacies, there is no room for others to intervene in what is right or wrong.

It's just that now that I have a counselor, if I don't listen to his plan and get taken advantage of by the officers and soldiers, wouldn't it be obvious that I am too stupid?
Luo Ru thought about it for a while, and sighed: "Okay, you can send someone to inform the 'Chuang Jiang', saying that there are many cavalry officers and soldiers, and I am afraid they will take advantage of them. It is better to leave as soon as possible!"

When Li Zicheng received Luo Rucai's suggestion, he was in a dilemma.

Here Li Guo personally led the soldiers to attack the city, and Zhuxian Town was crumbling.The unknown generals and warriors in the city defended the city with only a burst of blood and courage, and when their spirits were depressed, they could break through in a short time.

However, between breaking the city and not breaking it, what if something happens?
The end of the Xuzhou battle made him and Luo Rucai still have lingering fears when they thought about it now.

However, Li Zicheng felt unwilling to retreat like this.A rich and prosperous town is about to be captured, how many supplies can be replenished in it?
If the rebel army occupies its city, it may not be impossible to compete with the officers and soldiers.

Li Zicheng couldn't make a decision, so he had to send someone to ask his nephew Li Guo for his opinion.

Li Guo was attacking the top of the city, heard the words and responded: "Although Zhuxian Town is big, the city is solid, and the soldiers are brave and brave, but there is no way to do it. They are not soldiers who have fought for a long time, and they can go down sooner or later."

There was nothing wrong with Li Guo's judgment. Most of the defenders in Zhuxian Town were merchant guards, inspector archers, etc. They were able to hold on for so long, thanks to the "prestige" of "Qin Kou".

Li Zicheng made up his mind when he heard the words, and replied to Luo Rucai: "Zhuxian Town is about to fall, why retreat?"

After that, the two sides fought fiercely for a long time. Fu Zonglong saw that the rebels had no intention of retreating, and the two sides fought inextricably.

He then ordered: "Order Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen to attack the thieves from left and right, and make sure that no one escapes!"

It turned out that Fu Zonglong had waited so long with his exhausted battalion because he was waiting for Zu Kuan's iron cavalry and the soldiers and horses of Zhu Dadian, the Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang.

Zhu Dadian's infantry were too late to catch up, and Li Chongzhen's Liaodong Iron Cavalry was dispatched to support Fu Zonglong's troops.

　I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival!
