Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Li Zicheng chased and killed them heartily for more than two hours. From the time when he joined the battle around noon, until after dark, there were still many intruders chasing deserters around the battlefield with torches.

By this time, they had almost stopped killing people, no matter how murderous the brothers were, they had killed enough. Many people's sabers that were not sharp were cut to the edge, and they had to be returned to the furnace and forged again before they could be used again.

From the place where it was inserted into the battlefield to the pursuit of dozens of miles, I don’t know how many Zuozhen officers and soldiers were killed. Before dark, there were about [-] pieces of scales and armor that were peeled off... This harvest is not small, this Although the workmanship of the scale iron armor is not very meticulous, and it is difficult to move people who wear it on the body, it is a real iron armor after all, and it is many times more expensive than cotton armor and brocade armor... A decent iron armor, let alone the price More than a hundred taels, the imperial court mainly supplies the northern military towns, and the southern side is really too rare.

There are also three or four hundred collars of cotton and leather armor, plus more than 2000 mules, hundreds of war horses, and over a hundred carts of food and supplies, bundled into a pile of weapons like a hill... This time, it is really a big profit up.

Of course, there is also the army of over a thousand officers and soldiers in front of us. [

These officers and soldiers became honest after being captured. Their weapons were confiscated, their armor was stripped, and only their fat jackets remained, so they honestly followed the soldiers who entered the camp, pushing carts, lighting torches, and carrying armored battles, and put in a lot of effort.

These captives are strong and strong men, and they are regarded as forced labor for the officers and soldiers to break into the camp for nothing. After a long time, they have been trained in spear and horsemanship, and asked them to rob and kill people. Three years later, he became a horse army, although Xiaoqi has no share, he is still a good soldier that can be used.

"How are you, are you tired?"

The generals of the old battalion chased people and robbed things in batches. After staying in Shangluo Mountain for a long time, they were extremely poor when they entered the camp. Even a good old man like Tian Jianxiu had a great time robbing.

Li Zicheng joked about him: "I'm not tired, your vice-lord Tian has already done it, how can I say I'm tired."

"There is no other way..."

Tian Jianxiu chuckled, and was not in a hurry to get angry, and said to Li Zicheng: "I have told my subordinates to rest, and if it continues, they will have to pay more. The soldiers are exhausted, and so are the horses."

"Yes." Li Zicheng nodded, and said with a smile: "I have already sent an order to Master Liu, the chief sentry, to gather the whole army and find a leeward place to rest for the night. Tomorrow some people will bring the prisoners and Jiazhan's food back to the old camp. I will Go with Zongshao and the others to meet Jingxuan and the others."

He lay down very happily, and his tone was very relaxed and happy: "This battle was fought smoothly. With Jingxuan, Cao Cao and Guo Tianxing together, our elite soldiers are enough. No matter how strong Dengzhou Town is." , can also eat it. It is not impossible for each family to join forces, and then return to the way they fought Fengyang..."

Li Zicheng said, Tian Jianxiu just listened, his temperament was very calm, so he didn't follow up like other generals, he just murmured twice to indicate that he was still listening.

This is Tian Jianxiu's old habit, and Li Zicheng didn't take it seriously, and continued to talk with a smile.

In the darkness, someone came on horseback from a distance, and the sound of the horse's hooves shattered the tranquility of the night. The soldiers guarding the surrounding area hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and ordered someone to get off their horses.

"Qiangzi, it's me."

Someone called out immediately, and Li Qiang, the captain of Li Zicheng's personal army, shouted happily: "It's Bu's uncle!"

"It's me." It was Li Guo who came, he got off his horse, walked to the light, held his waist knife, and strode forward.In today's battle, Li Guo led his troops, killed the hardest, fought the hardest, chased the furthest, and only came back at this time.

"It's back!"

Li Zicheng was happy in his heart, so he simply stood up and greeted his heroic nephew, who was invincible to ordinary people.

But the expression on Li Guo's face was not right, he strode over, accompanied by a tall man, when he got closer, he saw bright armor and bright armor, which was the attire of Ming officers and generals.

"Uncle Bu, who is this?"

Li Qiang also followed, and upon seeing it, his complexion changed drastically, and he immediately drew out his own saber, and stood in front of Li Zicheng.

"Don't panic, in our place, can people still eat me?"

Li Zicheng gently pushed Li Qiang away, and he stood in front of the Ming army general.His stature is a typical appearance of a big man in northern Shaanxi. He is tall and strong. His high cheekbones are a little red. He is in his thirties, and the wrinkles on his face are already very obvious, but his eyes are piercing. , the light emitted was almost like electric light. Under his gaze, few people could look directly at him. At first, this general of the Ming army avoided it a little, but then, he used his eyes to meet him. They stared at each other, and refused to back away at all.

Li Zicheng was secretly surprised. He felt the youth and courage of the general opposite. He looked at most 25-[-], and he must be less than [-]. His beard was short and not long. Although his eyes were looking directly at him, they were gentler. , and did not deliberately make a vicious look...Many generals of the Ming Dynasty Li Zicheng had contact with him. The one who impressed me the most was the besieged Cao Wenzhao. At the last moment, his eyes still had that kind of determination.

That kind of proud look has not been seen in the eyes of the Ming generals for many years.

The one in front of him, although obviously a general, does not have too many decorations on his iron armor, and the sword is not inlaid with gold or gemstones. Although he has an extraordinary bearing, he really does not look like a high-ranking general.

"It's about a thousand, a handful, or a capital, guarding."

Li Zicheng thought to himself, his face became very serious, and he said to Li Guo, "Bizhi, since you brought the guest, why don't you introduce it to me?"

Naturally, there was great dissatisfaction in the words, Li Guo smiled bitterly, and replied: "This is General Li, the chief general of the Tuqi Battalion in Dengzhou Town. When we were in Laiwu, we always looked for General Li when we bought iron."

"It turned out to be a general!"

Li Zicheng was taken aback, and his slight dissatisfaction with Li Guo disappeared in an instant.This Ming general can't be an ordinary envoy, or Dengzhou Town came to see what kind of conspiracy and trick, the strategy must be used for value, it is a strategy when it is used in an idea, there is no reason to use a general for a strategy, otherwise the general will be too Not worth the money anymore.

Judging from Li Zicheng's own experience, he would never use Li Guo or Liu Xiyao as spies. There is no guarantee of success, and most of them will fail. It is too risky.

This general named Li Yongxin, Li Zicheng was very impressed with him. With hundreds of cavalry, he strangled the officials in Laiwu, wiped out all the thieves, and guarded the line between Laiwu and Yanzhou to prevent foreign forces from invading. The general, plus he is the chief general of the cavalry battalion, it can be seen that he is the general of the main battalion. Such a general has old acquaintances with Li Guo, and the pig iron that cost tens of thousands of silver to enter the camp is still in his hands. An account is really unclear.

In any case, Li Guo was not at fault for bringing people here.

When the color changed, Li Zicheng showed joy, and said with a smile: "You did a good job. General Li came from afar, and you are welcome! It's just that the place is simple and there is no camp. If you want to buy wine and listen to the show, please give me a reception." , but this is impossible.”

Li Yongxin has been sizing up Li Zicheng since he came here, the general of the Fushan Camp, he will not be cowardly to anyone, and when he looked at Li Zicheng, he was only slightly surprised by the majesty and momentum in the other party's eyes, but when he thought of Zhang Shouren's When you have a bearing, you are determined in your heart.

In any case, how can a thief leader compare with Zhenglu!

But in terms of Fushan's price point of view, he still admires Li Zicheng. A person who handles the plate, even the leader of a thieves' cottage with hundreds of people, will pay attention to food and clothing and enjoy himself. This one in front of him has a maximum of 10 under his command People are still poor and poor, and they don't change their true nature of poverty. This alone is a hundred times better than ordinary gangsters.

He came back to his senses, crossed his hands solemnly, and said to Li Zicheng, "I've met Li Shuai!"

Such a title made Li Zicheng stunned.

After a while, he smiled wryly and said, "Since I rebelled, the court and officers and soldiers have always called me a thief. Why is General Li receiving such courtesy today?"

"It's not because of anything else, it's just that my family has said that Li Zicheng is different from ordinary people. Of course, the rebels rebelled because they couldn't survive. , except for a few villains, who would rebel?" [

Li Zicheng was suddenly moved, and then calmed down.

The lobbyist in front of him is a formidable person, no wonder he is a general, and when he met, he was the first to win, leaving a unique image in his heart.

How do you know that what he said was not intentional to cater to?The emperor said all these words, and he also said that all the thieves are my sons, but Li Zicheng was sure that if possible, the emperor would not mind asking the officers and soldiers to kill all the thieves himself.

Therefore, his reaction was quite indifferent, and he only responded with a faint echo.

Li Yongxin smiled and continued: "But after the rebellion, he raped people who were poorer than himself, murdered their parents, raped their wives and daughters, and inflicted their own pain on others. In this way, they burned people's property and killed their relatives. People living a good life are reduced to bandits like beasts. This approach will not only fail to achieve great things, but also deviate from the original intention of the rebellion. According to Zhenglu, Li Chuang also followed the same path at the beginning of the rebellion."

Having said that, everyone around was furious, and Li Zicheng snorted, also looking extremely angry.Only Tian Jianxiu nodded slightly, showing a thoughtful look.

Li Yongxin turned a blind eye to the cold snorts and hostile eyes of the people around him. He was wearing armor, and his usual waist knife was tied around his waist. As long as he has a stomach, there is nothing to be afraid of.

He has a few companions by his side, two personal soldiers and three members of the Military Intelligence Department, one of whom joined the Military Intelligence Department in the Huguang area. This time he was able to find Li Chuang in the complicated mountains and dense forests, and he was the Military Intelligence Department Thanks to these people.
