Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 245

Seeing this scene of thousands of people fleeing, Zhu Changyuan unreasonably remembered an incident that happened in his hometown in the countryside when he was a child: At that time, he was living with his grandparents, and suddenly someone said that the oil depot in the small town exploded, and that the fire was about to explode. It burned to their own village, so men, women and children in the village pulled the cart overnight, put their own quilts and mattresses on it, and even led the animals all the way south.

Then, a miracle happened. The villagers from other villages I met on the way to escape didn’t know why. When I saw them running, I followed them. I ran for dozens of miles with my belongings and didn’t know why.

In the end, it was the great servants of the people who came forward to send the fleeing army, which stretched for dozens of kilometers and led dozens of villages, home.

But later, as far as Zhu Changyuan knew, the oil depot in the town did explode, but in fact, their village was a full nine kilometers away from the town, nine kilometers, let alone the explosion of the oil depot, even if it was a missile, it would not be enough to carry it with the family. I ran away all the way from the mouth, let alone other villages farther away.

It can only be said that escaping is an infectious disease, and it is not transmitted by air, but by sound infection and eye infection, which are more terrible than air.

"Come on!" Zhu Changyuan led the army to charge behind the soldier's buttocks.

Then, Sun Kewang's troops retreated while fleeing, and soon encountered Ainengqi's deployment, and then ran again, the more people ran, the more crowded the roads and post roads were.

In the end, Ainengqi's team didn't know what was going on, so they went back and ran for a few miles, and soon ran into Li Dingguo's team again. Fortunately, Li Dingguo refused to retreat.

However, when his soldiers saw the soldiers fleeing desperately ahead, they ignored the orders of their superiors. Ninety percent of them turned around and turned back with Ainengqi's army, running towards Gucheng.

"Oh!" Li Dingguo sighed, secretly thinking that the situation is over, but suddenly he saw Ai Nengqi who was being pushed back by the soldiers in the chaos.

Ai Nengqi was really pushed back by many soldiers, it was not that he didn't want to move forward, but moving forward in this crowd was ten times more difficult than sailing against the current.Therefore, he can only drift with the flow.

"Nengqi!" Li Dingguo was sitting on a big horse with a cold gun in his chest, he greeted Ai Nengqi, and said: "Nengqi, here, here I am."

Ai Nengqi struggled to swim to Li Dingguo's side, and said out of breath, "Second Brother, something is wrong, and Brother Kewang didn't know what happened in front, the team was not only in chaos but also turned back Let’s go, all my soldiers don’t obey orders.”

"Do you know the reason?" Li Dingguo thrust his spear into the ground, asked Ainengqi, and looked worriedly at the retreating team.

"I don't know, I can't control it at all!" Ai Nengqi gritted his teeth, with a slight shame on his immature face, he said: "Father, father values ​​me so much and entrusts us with a heavy responsibility, I'll wait for today, hey... "

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Li Dingguo got on his horse again, picked up his spear and waved it at the entire retreating army, and said while waving: "Don't run away, line up!"

However, no one obeyed.

Li Dingguo gritted his teeth cruelly, "swish" and picked up several sergeants, stabbing them to death. Unfortunately, the soldiers who were fleeing nearby just stopped for a while, looked at Li Dingguo, and decisively walked away from him Far, retreating back as usual.

Zhu Changyuan led the cavalry to rush from left to right, while Sun Kewang's troops turned around and ran away from each other, trampling on the dead.

However, some sergeants with slow legs but bright heads abandoned the post road and ran up the mountain on the north bank.

Zhu Changyuan charged for a while, and quickly ordered the soldiers to stop. Since the bandits retreated, it was not the time to pursue them, because many of Sun Kewang's soldiers were not dead, but scattered in the mountains on the north bank of the Han River. After being beaten and seriously injured, he didn't know where he went, and his life and death were unknown.

Zhu Changyuan was afraid that he would rush to Gucheng to fight Zhang Xianzhong in a flash of his brain, and Sun Kewang would not die behind him, just in time to organize soldiers to attack Xiangyang City.You must know that although Li Xin and Xiang Wang Zhu Yiming are defending, there are too few troops in Xiangyang City, and their resistance is limited.

"Everyone, stop chasing." Zhu Changyuan gave an order, and the two hundred armored soldiers ordered and prohibited them, and they all gathered around the general within 3 minutes, waiting for orders.

Stop chasing, naturally there are other things to do, one is to find Sun Kewang to decapitate him, and the other is to rest in place for a while, just after a violent attack and pursuit, the soldiers are exhausted.

In any case, they only ate a book of basic fighting skills, and they were not the legendary enemies.

Half an hour later, Sun Kewang, who was seriously injured and fell to the ground, was pulled out from the pile of dead by the soldiers. This guy really knew how to hide, and deliberately pulled the surrounding corpses over and buried him, hoping that the golden cicada would escape its shell.

It's a pity that Zhu Changyuan's soldiers searched very carefully and pulled him out of the dead.

"General Sun, we meet again!" Zhu Changyuan smiled slightly, looking at Sun Kewang who was disheveled and bloodstained on his chest.

"The last time you attacked me in Jiagu, Fang County, I didn't care about you. I didn't expect you to attack me again today. I don't know how you can justify it today?"

Of course Sun Kewang couldn't justify it. Last time it could be said that it was a misunderstanding, but this time it can't work. Not only did Zhang Xianzhong generously swear in Gucheng, but he also informed the world that Marshal Zhang has become a traitor again, and Nima did something even more wicked.

Before Marshal Zhang dispatched his troops, he hung a white satin at the gate of the tallest tower in Gucheng, with the names of the people written on it in large blood-red characters, and behind the name, there was a recitation: What did Marshal Zhang give as a gift in a certain year and month? , how much silver taels, what to say and so on.

Moreover, by coincidence, Zhu Changyuan's Daming was ranked second.

Therefore, this time Sun Kewang could not make any excuses anyway.

"kill him!"

Zhu Changyuan's eyes turned cold, and he turned away. As for how the wolves and tigers behind killed Sun Kewang, he couldn't care so much, "Take a collective rest for a quarter of an hour, and attack Gucheng after two quarters of an hour!"

Zhu Changyuan is definitely not the kind of person who hit me and I just stop there!He wants to pay it back, and he wants to pay it back twice as much.

Two quarters of an hour later, he led his army again and galloped towards Gucheng.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
On the other side, Sun Kewang's subordinates led Ainengqi's subordinates to flee together, and ran into Li Dingguo's army halfway, and the same was true. Most of them didn't know the reason and just followed for their lives.

Finally, he led Liu Wenxiu's troops and ran all the way towards Gucheng. Halfway through, they saw Zhang Xianzhong's guards.

"stop!"

Zhang Xianzhong seemed to have learned the news in advance, and set up giant antlers on the post road early, and spread them one by one to block the fleeing army in front of him.

"Stop, don't run, turn your head and attack Xiangyang City!"

More than a dozen big men with loud voices stood on a high place and shouted at the stragglers in unison. However, there were very few people who responded, and most of them ran forward regardless. It didn't matter if they encountered giant antlers. If the wood is moved, it can be bypassed.

"stop!"

Shouting doesn't do anything.

"shoot!"

Since shouting is useless, then use iron and blood methods. It has to be said that Zhang Xianzhong still has a way of governing the army. With one order, hundreds of crossbowmen came out from the guard behind the antler saw.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhh!"

The rain of arrows flew down, and the sound of piercing through the air was endless. In an instant, dozens of people were shot and more than a hundred people were injured. Of course, more arrows hit the ground.

However, these sacrifices are still too small compared to tens of thousands of people.

In particular, even though the troops in front were scared and didn't want to leave after being killed, the people behind Nima kept gathering forward, but after less than a quarter of an hour, everyone was already facing each other.

Zhang Xianzhong ordered the crossbowmen to shoot non-stop, but it couldn't keep up with the speed of crowds gathering, especially at a certain moment, the crowd suddenly broke out again, and when everyone looked back, they could only see smoke and dust, and the sound of horseshoes From far and near.

"No, God of Death is coming!"

One person yelled, ten people yelled, and then a hundred people yelled, and then a thousand people yelled.

The people behind were too far away from Zhang Xianzhong's crossbowmen, they didn't care whether the people in front were attacked or not, they kept rushing forward, there was nothing they could do, if they didn't charge, they would become the souls of Zhu Changyuan's cavalry behind them!
"Hey!" Zhang Xianzhong personally drove the horse forward, holding a big copper hammer in each hand, pointing in Zhu Changyuan's direction and said: "Don't retreat, turn your head, even if one of you hugs a horse's leg, you can't do it." Those who can kill Zhu Changyuan. Brothers, follow me. Anyone who can dominate Zhu Changyuan will be rewarded with one cart and one hundred beauties. Those who can injure Chang Yuan will be rewarded one thousand and ten beauties. Those who live inside will receive a bounty of one hundred and two beauties!!"

"on!"

I have to say that Zhang Xianzhong is indeed worthy of being a hero of a generation. Facing Zhu Changyuan who is like a tiger and wolf, he can still inspire his subordinates

Maybe it was because the commander had a backbone, or maybe the army below had a backbone, or maybe it was because of the common problem of men who are greedy for money and lust, those soldiers who ran away turned around and killed Zhu Changyuan in the direction where he was flying. .

"Okay!" Zhang Xianzhong smiled and said to himself: The ancients did not deceive me, as expected, there must be brave men under heavy rewards.

"Brothers, kill, kill, kill! Whoever can kill Zhu Changyuan, I will make him a general."

Zhu Changyuan patted his horse and galloped to the front. Although he saw Zhang Xianzhong who was three miles away, it was a pity that the distance was too far to pass. Between him and Zhang Xianzhong, the three miles away were densely crowded with people, all soldiers, and these soldiers, at this moment At the same time, he turned his head and attacked him while driving.

Immediately, Zhu Changyuan's head grew big. Even if this nima was killing people, he would kill them all one by one, and he wouldn't be able to finish the killing until dark!

How to do?
In this battle, Zhu Changyuan could only win but not lose. If he won, Zhang Xianzhong would definitely return to Gucheng.

But if he failed, although his own two hundred cavalry could retreat safely, they would ebb and flow. Once the morale of the enemy team on the opposite side skyrocketed, it would not be a dream for Zhang Xianzhong to attack Xiangyang directly or separate Jingchu from now on!
