Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 711 The Powerful Shi Lang

Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Chenggong, Liu Wenxiu, Li Quan, Liu Chunhong and others were responsible for the main force of the navy in Xiamen.Thousands of prisoners of Zheng's army were also left to them for reorganization, and then let them go east by water to cooperate with Li Zicheng's troops to attack Quanzhou.

After Zhu Yousong landed from Xiamen Island, he took Ma Jinhua, He Xuanjiao, Gao Guiying, Huimei, Xiao Liushi, Liu Zhaoji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, etc., and led more than 2 imperial battalions northward to Hua'an County.

He knew that Li Zicheng had encountered a problem now. The 10 troops were blocked in Hua'an County. There was a young general Shi Lang blocking the way, and a bandit Yao Dadao made trouble later. Zhu Yousong wanted to see who these two were!
As Zhu Yousong walked forward, Jin Yiwei and spies from the army reported to him the battle situation of Li Zicheng's troops...

Li Zicheng's team has a total of [-] men, and his generals are well equipped. There is a tiger Li Guo, Gao Yigong, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang, young general Zhang Huan as the vanguard, and general Tian Jianxiu in charge of transporting food and grass.

Li Zicheng's men and horses were like a broken bamboo all the way. After taking down Hua'an County, Nan'an Prefecture was ahead.Nan'an is Zheng Zhilong's hometown, and now Zheng Zhilong's general Shi Daxuan is in charge of Nan'an.

Nan'an Prefecture is also affiliated to Quanzhou, and the current defender of Quanzhou is Zheng Zhibao.This is Zheng Zhilong's fourth younger brother, who is good at land and water combat and is very brave.

Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Zhibao, these are the four real tigers of the Zheng family, four brothers, all proficient in martial arts, the banner of the Zheng family army was originally carried by them four, now Zheng Zhihu has passed away, Zheng Hongkui returned to the imperial court again, leaving only Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zhibao, and the other Zheng surnamed generals were all members of their tribe.

Zheng Zhilong sent Zheng Zhibao to sit in Quanzhou himself, which shows the importance of Quanzhou's location.Zheng Zhibao sent Zheng Jiajun's confidant General Shi Daxuan to Nan'an to take good care of their hometown.

The first stop Li Zicheng's men arrived in Nan'anzhou was Anxi Town, which is now Anxi County, Fujian Province. Shi Daxuan's second son Shi Xian was ordered to station troops here to resist the war.

Shi Xian is proficient in swords and horses, and has high martial arts skills. He heard that Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses are coming. Shi Xian, who is only 22 years old, has always been disobedient. He pulled 3000 soldiers and horses under his command and set up a battlefield with Li Zicheng's pioneer battalion, Zhang Huan, in the wilderness. .

When the two armies confronted each other, Shi Xian urged his horse to swing his sword and shouted and cursed. Zhang Huan, who was not yet 20 years old, was even more vigorous and furious, and urged his horse to dance with two swords to fight Shi Xian.

The two killed more than 30 rounds in front of the battle, and there was no winner.

Relying on his own bow and arrows, Zhang Huan was defeated when he pulled the horse. Shi Xian didn't know what to do, eager to win, he urged the horse to chase with the wheel knife, but was shot by Zhang Huan under the horse.

Zhang Huan commanded the men and horses to cover up the attack, and Shi Xian's men and horses were defeated in that battle.Thanks to Shi Xian's personal soldiers rushed up and snatched Shi Xian away.

Zhang Huan commanded the troops to take down Anxi Town in one go, and the injured Shi Xian was carried back to Nan'an Prefecture.

When Shi Daxuan saw it, he was so distressed that he burst into tears. Fortunately, the arrow had been taken out, and there was no danger of his life. However, this arrow wound was serious, and he would have to lie on the bed for at least a few months to heal.

Shi Daxuan wants to avenge his son. At this time, Zhang Huan's soldiers have arrived in Nan'an Prefecture.

Shi Daxuan went out to face the enemy, but his ability was not as good as his son Shi Xian, let alone Zhang Huan's opponent. After a scuffle, Shi Daxuan lost his troops and lost his generals, and returned to Nan'an Prefecture to hold out.

Shi Daxuan sighed for a long time, at a loss, how to retreat from the enemy, should he ask Zheng Zhibao for help?Just at this time, someone came to report that the eldest son Shi Lang had returned.

Shi Daxuan was overjoyed. He raised two sons, the eldest son Shi Lang and the second son Shi Xian.The two sons are three years apart, and they look like tigers, and they compete with each other.

The second son, Shi Xian, is both proficient in literature and martial arts. The eldest son, Shi Lang, failed in literature. Eight years ago, he abandoned literature and turned to martial arts.

Now that his studies were over and he returned to Nan'an to see his father, Shi Daxuan sent Li Zicheng to attack him. Shi Xian was injured and defeated, and lost Anxi Town. The enemy general Zhang Huan was invincible.

Shi Lang was furious when he heard this, and after seeing his brother Shi Xian's injuries, he immediately ordered soldiers to go out of the city to meet the enemy on behalf of his father.

Seeing that his son had just returned, Shi Daxuan was afraid that his pommel horse would be tired, so he planned to let him have a meal, and after a rest, he would come out a day later.Where is Shi Lang Kenyi?
"Father, watch the battle for the child, come when the child goes out, kill Zhang Huan, and avenge my brother!"

Shi Daxuan couldn't persuade him, so he had to obey his son.He stood at the top of the city and watched the formation, and gave his son 3000 troops. The gate of the city was wide open, and Shi Lang, who was fully clothed, rushed out.

Shi Lang asked Zhang Huan to fight by name and surname, and Zhang Huan patted his horse and danced with two swords to fight Shi Lang.

This Shi Lang is completely different from Shi Xian. A big knife made people appear and disappear. After a few rounds, Zhang Huan couldn't take it anymore. Zhang Huan wanted to run away, and planned to use a bow and arrow to win, but Shi Lang didn't give him a chance, so he used a knife with a sword inside. The trick, Kacha, a sword is slashing on Zhang Huan's back.

It was also Zhang Huan who was killed by mistake, with a bow and a pot of arrows on his back.The bow and arrow blocked it, and Shi Lang's sword hit the bow and arrow. As a result, the bow was cut off, and several arrows were cut off. The injury was much lighter.

It was just a cut in the back, blood spattered, flesh rolled up, Zhang Wen grinned in pain, beat his horse and ran away.

Shi Lang and Cui Ma chased after him with their swords, and the two sides had a scuffle.

Shi Daxuan on the top of the city was overjoyed when he saw his son winning the battle, but seeing his son chasing after him, he understood the reason why the poor should not chase him. He was afraid that he would fall into the trick of the Ming army to lure the enemy. Shi Daxuan felt sorry for his son and decided to hurry up Let his son withdraw his troops and return to the city.

Although Shi Lang didn't kill Zhang Huan in this battle, he hurt Zhang Huan, and he was able to vent his anger on his son. Shi Daxuan was very satisfied, praised his son, and then ordered to serve wine to celebrate his son's success.

The next day, Li Zicheng's main force arrived.

Shi Lang led his troops out of the city to fight again, Shi Lang defeated Li Guo, Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang, Gao Yigong and five generals, and Li Zicheng was dumbfounded.This Shi Lang is too powerful, no wonder Zhang Huan is not his opponent.

In the end, Li Zicheng fought in person. Both of them are swordsmen, and both of them are good at using swords with swords.

Therefore, the two generals were evenly matched, and they fought for more than 50 times, regardless of the outcome.

Shi Daxuan watched his son fight for several consecutive battles, fearing that his son would lose his order to withdraw his troops. Li Zicheng felt that if he continued to fight, he would not be sure of winning, so he also withdrew his troops.

After Li Zicheng returned to the camp, he discussed with the generals how to destroy Nan'an Prefecture. At this moment, his grain and grass were robbed by bandits, and Tian Jianxiu, the grain and grass supervisor, was captured by bandits and taken to the mountain.

Li Zicheng turned pale with shock when he heard the words.
