    "What on earth is going on? How did the officers and soldiers know our location?" Someone asked loudly in panic.  £¤f ¡°It¡¯s Yang Chengzu and Wang Long, these two rebels. They must have tipped off the officers and soldiers. If I had known, I would have killed them myself!¡± Liu Zongmin gritted his teeth.  "What's the use of talking about this now? Let's think about how to escape first!" Li Zicheng drank impatiently. At this time, he also secretly regretted in his heart. Wasn't he too hasty to attack Luo Rucai?  If Luo Rucai is still alive, at least he should have time to calmly deal with these officers and soldiers who suddenly came out. After all, although Luo Rucai is a womanizer, at least he still has talents, and the combat effectiveness of his troops is not bad, anyway.  He could persist for a while, but now after some cleaning, the combat effectiveness of the men under his command has also dropped greatly. Let alone fighting the officers and soldiers, it would be good if they don't do any harm.  But Li Zicheng is a professional rebel after all. He has seen situations like this many times in his life, so he is not too panicked.  Soon he immediately shouted: "Guo'er, you immediately take one thousand brothers from the old camp and five thousand brothers from the outer camp to stop those officers and soldiers. My brothers and I will retreat to the north first, and we will meet at Shijiazizhuang tonight!"  "Okay, don't worry, King Chuang. I will definitely make those dog officers and soldiers look good!" Li Guo grinned. He was Li Zicheng's nephew and had a reputation for bravery. He was quite trusted by Li Zicheng in the past.  Any difficult battles would be given to him, and he would always live up to his trust. This time Li Zicheng gave him the important task of blocking the officers and soldiers.  Listening to the increasingly rapid sounds of fighting outside, Li Zicheng had no time to say anything to Li Duo, so he led a group of generals to retreat towards the north. Li Guo drew out the scimitar from his waist and said to a leader behind him.  "Brothers, follow me. This time we want those good-looking officers and soldiers to kill!" he said.  Li Guo jumped on his horse and galloped forward.  ¡°Bang bang bang bang¡­¡± A volley of guns flashed past, and large holes were punched out in the bodies of dozens of bandits blocking the front.  "Advance!" A voice sounded, and hundreds of fire gun soldiers walked slowly over in formation holding fire gun soldiers. On both sides of these fire gun soldiers were the sword and shield soldiers and spearmen under Lu Xiangsheng's command. The task of these people was  Protect the flanks of these fire rifle soldiers from being attacked by rogue bandits.  Soldiers generally have bad tempers. At the beginning, the generals under Lu Xiangsheng were naturally unwilling to do what was clearly a supporting role. However, after seeing the combat power of Xuan Dajun, these generals were initially dissatisfied and resentful.  The arrogant and powerful generals also lost their temper.  When people fight, they all push back regardless of who is in front of them. The gangsters who were originally fighting with the officers and soldiers were inseparable from each other. When they encountered Xuan Dajun, they lost their temper as if they were exposed to the scorching sun and heavy snow. No one could do anything when they met such a person.  Not convinced.  When Li hurried to the battlefield with his troops, the bandits who were driving to the front were retreating in a chaotic manner.  Li Guo drew out his long knife and chopped one of the bandits to the ground, shouting loudly: "Brothers, you have all seen what is happening now. Only by fighting to the death can we have a chance of survival. I put my words here today. Who dares to do this now?"  If you take a step back, don't blame me for being ruthless!" As Li Guo spoke, the thousand men and horses from the old camp he brought also blocked the retreat. Many of them pointed forward with their long bows and gleaming arrows.  With the menacing looks on these people's faces, anyone knew that these people were definitely not joking.  He looked at the bandits in front of him coldly.  Li Guo pointed his long sword forward and shouted loudly: "Brothers, life or death depends on this morning. Everyone rush for me!" The bandits with their back roads blocked had no choice but to turn around and rush towards the front.  , while Li Guo led a thousand men from the old camp behind.  He constantly drove the five thousand bandits he brought and the defeated bandits in front to launch a counterattack against the officers and soldiers in front.  Speaking of which, the tactics of the rogue bandits have not changed much from ancient times to the present. They are all based on the human sea tactic. The most they can do is make a promise before the war, and after defeating the enemy, they will drink heavily and eat large amounts of meat.  In the end, it was allowed that everyone did not have to control their own crotch, and could justly steal money, women, etc., and start a war and rush forward like a beehive.  When they retreated, they retreated in droves, and nothing changed for thousands of years.  When the officers and soldiers who were driving the bandits back saw the bandits coming back to fight again, the volley of guns of the Xuan army at the front rang out again. As the gunshots sounded, the bandits rushing at the front started to rush.  Fall down.  However, this time the bandits who had no way out no longer collapsed at the first sign of attack. Driven by the cavalry from the old camp behind them, the people behind them just braved their scalp and rushed forward one after another.  The sound of gunfire on the mountain ridge continued one after another, and the bandits fell one after another, but these bandits seemed to be endlessly killed, and they remainedA steady stream of troops rushed forward, and the shortcomings of the Xuan Da Army gunners in front were spread out too thinly. Due to the small number of people, the firepower was naturally relatively weakened, and the rogue bandits gradually got closer.  Due to the distance between them, the fire gunmen had no choice but to retreat while fighting. Seeing this scene, Li Guo, who was supervising the battle, immediately became excited. He waved the long knife in his hand desperately and kept driving the bandits forward.  Charge, he kept shouting: "Brothers, charge forward! As long as we charge forward, we will win, and those dog officers and soldiers will be defeated!" "Kill" "Charge" In fact, it's not just Li Guo.  , even the bandits who were rushing forward began to feel excited at this time. They had fought so many battles with Xuan Dajun these days, but they had never won a single one. The firearms of Xuan Dajun were really too powerful. Every time they fired,  A large number of people will fall down when the sound is heard. Such huge damage is a great deterrent to people. Now that they have finally seen the dawn of defeating Xuan Dajun, how can they not be excited? Not only Li Guo, but also some of the small leaders in the team are also  Spontaneously driving the surrounding bandits forward, trying to defeat the wave of Xuan's army in front of him, especially Li Guo, who thought that if he could capture a batch of firecrackers used by Xuan's army, he could use these firecrackers to give to the brothers in the old camp.  In terms of equipment, the world is so big that you will have no control over it!  Seeing the rogues swarming up, the sword, shield, and spear soldiers who were responsible for covering the flanks of the fire gunners began to look serious. A Qian Zong shouted loudly, and the sword, shield, and spear soldiers immediately prepared to charge.  Go out and fight the returning bandits in close combat.  But before he could give the order, he heard someone in the firecrackers queue shouting, and torches began to light up, and then the firecrackers put the firecrackers away.  Then he took out a number of black enemy missiles as big as a teacup from the satchel around his waist. When the bandits rushed to a distance of forty or fifty steps away from them, a sharp whistle sounded, and the missiles were lit one by one.  Huosuo's tens of thousands of enemies flew towards the rogues like rain.  ¡°Boom¡­¡± Only bursts of thunderous explosions were heard, and the bandits who were swarming forward were immediately submerged in a large white smoke.  The explosion was so loud that all nearby sounds were drowned out by the explosion.  When the explosion stopped and the thick smoke gradually dissipated, people gradually saw the situation ahead.  Only then did I realize that the densely packed bandits who were swarming forward were all lying on the ground in a mess. The rugged mountainside was littered with broken limbs and corpses. After a rough visual inspection, in a long period of time,  A width of three to four hundred paces.  There were at least thousands of people killed by the bombing. Because the people rushing over were so dense, these corpses were piled up on top of each other, which looked very scary.  And such a terrifying situation even scares veterans of hundreds of battles, let alone those ragtag bandits?  The rogue bandits who originally had the courage to charge only with their passion and the pressure of a thousand old battalion soldiers and horses behind them finally collapsed. In the face of something beyond their cognition, some people threw away their weapons and cried.  They shouted and ran towards the back. For them, they would rather be killed by the old battalions supervising the battle behind than die under that kind of terrifying thing.  More and more people ran back, and soon almost all the bandits began to run back. When tens of thousands of people were defeated, the scene was very shocking.  The collapse came so suddenly.  This left no time for the old battalion supervising the battle to react. Even though the cavalry of the old battalion chopped down dozens of defeated bandits, they could not stop the rogues from retreating. Soon, many people from the old camp were pushed to the ground, including their horses and men.  Like a dam overturned by the tide, it quickly disappeared into the sea of ??people.  "Whywhy is this happening!" Li Guo looked at the rogue bandits that were crumbling across the mountains and fields in front of him with a dull expression.  After a long time, he murmured to himself: "Obviously, he was almost rushing to the officers and soldiers, why is this happening?" The guards around Li Guo didn't notice that much, and one of the guards grabbed his horse.  Yuan said urgently: "Master Li, please leave quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late!" The guard's words seemed to have touched a nerve in him.  He shouted: "I won't leave. King Chuang gave me the task of rearing the palace. If I give up halfway, how can I have the face to see King Chuang!" "Master Li. If you don't leave, it will be too late!" "I won't leave, you come right away.  Tell the brothers in the old camp to kill them and kill a bunch of those mud-legged ones. I don't believe they dare to escape!" Li Guo ignored the guards' dissuasion and continued to shout furiously.  Just as Li Guo was speaking, the retreating bandits were already rushing towards them like a tide, almost scattering the dozens of guards around Li Guo.  A burly guard leader saw that something was wrong and did not talk nonsense to him. He pulled Li Guo's reins and forced him toThe war horse turned its head, then took out the dagger from its waist and stabbed the war horse in the buttocks. The pained war horse raised its head and neighed before rushing forward. The war horse in severe pain knocked down three people with their faces.  The four bandits blocking the front did not stop, but continued to rush forward. The guards quickly followed after seeing this, and the group quickly disappeared into the mountainside This battle  Li Zicheng failed miserably.  More than 30,000 rogue bandits were completely defeated by the sudden attack of the officers and soldiers. What was even worse was that Li Guo, who was in charge of breaking up the rear, retreated without even holding on for an hour. This further led to the rapid retreat of the rogue bandits.  After escaping, he found that there were less than 3,000 troops left around him.  At noon, Li Zicheng and other defeated soldiers stopped at a place called Shijiazizhuang. This was a village with only about a hundred households. As soon as Li Zicheng and other defeated soldiers arrived, they drove the entire village to the center of the village.  All the men and children were killed, and the women and children were dragged everywhere by the defeated soldiers to vent their animal desires.  Li Zicheng did not stop this situation. Now that the army was newly defeated, letting these defeated soldiers vent would be helpful to restore morale.  As for whether this is the right thing to do I'm sorry, this kind of thing is never considered for the rogue bandits whose lives are at stake.  The defeated soldiers continued to vent their animalistic desires until dusk, when they came out from all corners while holding up their belts, laughing and laughing, and began to make rice with the food they looted from various houses.  When it turned completely dark, most people arrived in Zhuangzi one after another.  When everyone met, everyone saw each other's embarrassment.  The armor was tilted, and some of the weapons had fallen off. In short, most of the things were left on the road.  A bonfire was lit, and Li Zicheng sat on a tree stump, looking coldly at Li Guo who was kneeling in front of him.  "Guo'er, what did I tell you today? Is this how you cut off the queen? It's all because of your inability to cut off the queen. Our tens of thousands of troops now have less than three thousand left! You you are simply a waste!" Li Guo  He is Li Zicheng's nephew, and Li Zicheng loves this nephew the most.  But today he was really angry, so he immediately started yelling.  Li Guo, who was kneeling on the ground, had an ashen expression on his face and no longer had the ferocity of the past. He said nonchalantly: "King Chuang, today I had led the army and was about to fight back against the officers and soldiers, but Xuan Dajun beat me again.  Back, these Xuan army's ten thousand enemies were too powerful. They only threw less than three rounds of those mud-legged enemies before they were defeated. Even though I and my brothers from the old camp tried their best to stop them, they still couldn't stop them. One of those mud-legged enemies  Everyone was red-eyed. Many brothers from the old camp also died because of them." He couldn't help but feel sad when he thought that many cavalrymen from the old camp were pulled down by the defeated bandits and trampled to death.  Li Zicheng gritted his teeth and watched Li Guo's chest rising and falling as he knelt on the ground. He naturally knew that Li Guo was telling the truth. He knew the virtues of those bandits very well.  These people joined his army of bandits just for the sake of food. These people can fight smoothly, but if they encounter a slight defeat, these people will run faster than anything else!  At this time, Liu Zongmin on the side also advised: "King Chuang. Don't blame Li Guo too much. You must know that he is facing Xuan Dajun. This is not a good thing. It's good if he can come back with his life."  "What do you want?" As Li Zicheng's top general, Liu Zongmin still has a lot of face. Besides, Li Zicheng doesn't really want to deal with his nephew. He glared at Li Guo and sighed.  He said: "That's it, just get up. You can't be entirely blamed for this defeat. Without these two rebels, Yang Chengzu and Wang Long, we wouldn't be in this situation!" Liu Zongmin shook his head: "What's the point of saying this now?  "Um, we are in trouble this time, the question is where are we going?" Li Zicheng sighed and was about to speak, when suddenly there was a dull gunshot from outside.  "Bang, bang, bang" As the gunfire rang out, the bandits who were sitting in the village to rest all jumped up. They were too familiar with this sound. It was the unique sound of gunfire from Xuan Dajun.  "No Xuan Dajun is coming!" To this day, the terror of Xuan Dajun has been deeply engraved in the hearts of all the bandits, and the familiar sound of gunfire has long been transformed into a reminder.  All the thieves and bandits were blown up. Thousands of people were all in chaos. Many people immediately jumped on their horses and started running out.  "Don't run everyone gather together and listen to my orders before rushing out!" Li Zicheng jumped on a big rock and shouted loudly, but at this time no one except his hundreds of guards and the surrounding generals heard him.  sound.  Looking at the swarm of people,?Zi Chengyi gritted his teeth and said to the generals around him: "It seems that Xuan's army really wants to kill me. Now if we get together and the target is too big, we should all attack separately. Whoever survives will have his destiny."  !" After saying that, Li Zicheng jumped on his horse and rushed north, with hundreds of people's guards following closely behind him.  The other people didn't hesitate at all, they all got on their horses and rushed in all directions "Bang bang bang bang bang" Intense gunshots continued to sound along with the shouts of killing, and there were constant bandits or people being killed.  Kill or be surrendered.  Li Zicheng gritted his teeth and leaned on the horse and galloped with all his strength. He kept dashing left and right, looking for a way out in the dark. In the darkness, he didn't know how many officers and soldiers were pouring into the village. He only knew  Gunshots continued to ring out around him, and the guards who originally crowded around him kept falling off their horses. In the end, only about thirty people followed him.  I don¡¯t know how much time passed, but Li Zicheng ran to a crossroads. He tightened the reins and stopped the horse. He was about to wave for the guards to come over, when he suddenly saw several flashes of fire in the distance.  "Be careful, King Chuang!" an alert guard suddenly shouted and rushed in front of him. Then the guard was hit by several lead bullets, turning both men and horses into a hornet's nest and fell down without saying a word.  on the ground.  "No, there's an ambush!" Li Zicheng shouted, and then looked at the closer and closer shouts of killing behind him, and shouted: "Everyone, please rush forward with me, otherwise we will all die here!"  After saying that, Li Zicheng spurred his horse forward again, but he had just rushed forward more than ten steps when another burst of gunfire rang out. Li Zicheng felt a pain in his chest and was hit by a huge force. His whole body was shaken.  He soared into the sky, and then he knew nothing (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
