179 Blowing sand and walking thousands of miles (12)

"Look! There is smoke!"

Thick smoke rolled in the distance, like a mistress rising into the air, spreading its teeth and claws.

Both sides who were fighting twelve miles away saw this misunderstanding. Zhu Cilang was naturally excited, but Li Zicheng's mouth was dry and his eyes turned black.

That location is Longmen Town, where he hoarded military rations. Although he has not yet been transported enough, most of it has been saved. Now it is burned to death. Isn’t it just for the sake of eating? Everyone is born and die and lives a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife.

"Your Majesty!" After such a big incident, the quick horse who reported it had rushed to Li Zicheng: "Zuo Guang will rebel first!"

Li Zicheng was just chased out of three miles by a group of mad dog-like officers and soldiers, but this was the result of his personal guards sacrificing their lives in the palace. The army on all sides was in chaos and there was no guidance from the handsome man, so it was thanks to the fact that the pond horse could be found.

"Of course he was rebelling!" Li Zicheng cursed angrily: "My thief! He treats him well! He actually did such a thing that was punished by God! Where did he escape? He had to catch him and peel it to relieve the hatred in his heart!"

"I ran southeast!" said Tangma.

Li Zicheng was thinking about which general behind him to block Zuo Guangxian, and saw a quick horse rushing towards him, saying, "Report~ Your Majesty! Zhu thief ran into the north mountain."

"I'm not chasing you and waiting for anything!" Li Zicheng was furious.

"General Li from the rear camp said, I'm afraid of an ambush." ​​The Tangma whispered.

General Li Guo in the back camp was Li Guo. Although he was brave in war, he was also meticulous. Seeing that the officers and soldiers dared to rush straight to the middle army with small troops, and they were still able to escape, Li Guo was a little worried about the ambush in the north mountain. First of all, he had suffered a loss of ambush once before, and he lost five hundred elite soldiers. Even General Ma Chongxi, the right Guoyi of the base camp, was killed by Prince Zhu's sacrifice flag. Ma Chongxi has followed him for many years, and is not ambiguity at all, but he is too brave and eventually underestimated the enemy.

According to the reward agreed by the civil servants of the Li government, General Guoyi is also enough to be awarded the title of Count. He really has no life of wealth!

After seeing the Yellow River, Shanxi was left with only the old and weak soldiers. Shanxi went there and was a běi spirit. There was no other army that could fight in the Ming Dynasty that could block the 100,000 troops in the camp. It was so frustrating to die under the good situation. In the end, he had not even obtained a title!

What's more, the most important thing now is not to pursue a small group of Zhu thieves who have no threat, but to gather the straits as soon as possible! If you leave it alone and only care about the movement of the brigade, it may cause greater chaos. Once night falls, the strong men and auxiliary soldiers who have been forced to recruit will not be able to recover the barracks and will only flee in all directions.

Li Guo made up his mind and naturally refused to enter the mountain blindly. It was dark early in winter, and even if there were no ambush in the mountains, the brigade would not get any benefits when he went in.

Li Zicheng was already angry and scolded: "Li Guo, this rat! If the officers and soldiers had ambushed on the northern mountain road, they would have come out long ago! Are you waiting for us to chase him? Oh my god!" After hearing this, a group of guards even wiped out the sorrow of defeat: Li Guo is your nephew, Your Majesty!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty calmed down!" Song Xiance, as a military advisor, followed the army and finally found Li Zicheng among the riots.

When Li Zicheng saw Song Xiance, he finally pressed his anger and told Song Xiance the whole story, and asked again: "What are the military advisors' opinions?"

Song Xiance was okay to show off his secrets, and he knew his weight, but he refused to fall into the title of "Military Advisor" with a very high value, and pretended to be calm: "Your Majesty, those bandits will always be waiting for death in the future! At this moment, it is time to attack the left army first. Zuo Guang first contacted his old army for more than a thousand, killed our people, and burned the Longmen Town up and down... Tsk, now the fire is still rising into the sky, the heat is rolling, and even the city gate is not close!"

"Didn't they cross the river in the southeast and flee back to Hejin?" Li Zicheng's heart gradually tightened, afraid that things were not as simple as he thought.

...

"It's easy to go back to Hejin while the Yellow River is frozen now." Cao Ning squatted on the ground and drew a simple and clear map on the ground with a shabby fan: "There is a sandbank six miles southeast from Longmen, but..."

Zuo Guangxian and Xiao Donglou squatted on both sides of Cao Ning and waited for him to continue talking.

Cao Ning pulled out a long line straight down from Longmen Town where he was currently located: "Look, I checked it out before I came out, here!"

"Han Cheng?" Zuo Guangxian was stunned.

"It's Hancheng." Cao Ning said: "You see, if you want to transport grain, you have to set up several points along the way, otherwise how much manpower will be on the road? So Longmen is a point, and Hancheng must be a point."

Zuo Guang nodded first: "The military rations were indeed transported from Hancheng."

Xiao Donglou smiled and said, "Let's just say that managing food and grass is your old job! OK, let's go and burn Hancheng together!"

Zuo Guangxian was sweating all over and quickly waved his hand and said, "The military order only burned the food in Longmen Town. We are acting against the order!"

"It's not in the way." Xiao Donglou took out the military order issued by the military command from his arms and handed it to Zuo Guangxian: "Please look at General Zuo, this is the military order given to me by Your Highness, and I didn't say anything to hurry back."

Zuo Guang first looked at it and found that he had to respond to the order of "Left Army" to burn the thieves to store grain, and there was an additional power to "do things cheaply". But... "Hancheng is not Longmen Town, there are at least two thousand soldiers on the side, responsible for safety along the way." Zuo Guang first hurriedly put a gap in the number of troops and said: "You are only two hundred people in the game, but there are actually only one hundred clans who can fight here! He fought with 300 people, but he was not able to get a good geography, so he could not fight."

"You can cheat." Cao Ning said.

"We are now moving south all the way, pretending to be Li Chuang's men." Xiao Donglou added.

Zuo Guangxian was even more sweating and said to himself: The Supervisor once praised me as a powerful general in the army. Why do you think these two people are more fierce? Who are there under the tent of the Eastern Palace?

"I'm afraid it's not easy to cheat!" Zuo Guangxian said immediately: "Although I have a fake seal, Longmen is only forty miles away from Hancheng, and the wind will arrive in a flash..."

"We have cut their heads in a blink of an eye." Xiao Dong said.

Zuo Guangxian shook his head: "Our brigade is moving fast enough to go through the Tangma Road. Maybe there is news in Hancheng?"

"That's easy!" Cao Ning stood up and said, "We are going to capture you on your order! Does the Hancheng Guard know you?"

"I know, it is Li You, the commander-in-law General Li You, a pseudo-style general." Zuo Guang first reported Li You's official account and quickly added, and said: "There were rumors that Li thieves wanted to let him and Bai Jiuhe... Bai Jiuhe was General Guoyi of the Right Camp... and asked them to cross the river from Hancheng to fight Wanrong and Pingyang. As a result, Yuan Zongdi was not in a smooth battle in Qingyang, and Bai Jiuhe and his troops were unable to come back in time, so Li You waited for him to join forces in Hancheng."

"It's very good!" Cao Ning laughed and said, "It's much more convenient to know each other. Let's go to Hancheng now!"

Zuo Guangxian saw that the two had already made up their minds. After a brief look, he knew that Xiao Donglou was one of the two colonels under the Eastern Palace. He had a good status and was just a general officer who surrendered and rebelled again. It would be better to take them as the main force. Moreover, in Longmen Town, he was very familiar with the more than 200 people who killed and set fire, and he didn't even say much. His military discipline was strict and he was indeed a powerful army with several strict military disciplines.

Zuo Qian's headquarters detoured from the mountain road and sneaked into Longmen Town with the help of Zuo Guangxian. He had already changed into winter clothes for the camp. As for the Ming Dynasty, he had never brought it out. He said that from the appearance, it was difficult to tell the authenticity. However, Li You was born as a guard of Shuai Biao Zhongquan and knew many generals. If he talked nonsense, he might not be able to deceive him.

Fortunately, Zuo Guang surrendered for some time, and then caught up with Li Zicheng's founding of the country and proclaimed himself emperor. He was a "founding meritorious person". He also had a little understanding of the internal military deployment of the pseudo-Shun. He instilled Xiao Donglou and Cao Ning with the current position of the generals of each battalion along the way.

"You are just saying that they are Liu Fangliang's subordinates," Zuo Guangxian said, "They are Zuoying, and after the pseudo-Shun founded the country, they were renamed Zuofuying. Because their original flag was black, they were also called Zaoying. Now the black flag is the color of the front camp. Zuoying has changed its white color, but the bandits have not changed their words, and they are still called Zaoying."

"Hehe, General Zuo is really familiar with the thief." Xiao Donglou looked down on the surrender and betrayal from his heart, and unconsciously stabbed him with one word.

Zuo Guang was speechless for a moment, and then hesitated for a few words and then rode his horse away on the excuse of governing the army.

As soon as Zuo Guang left first, Xiao Donglou couldn't help it and asked, "Siuai, what's your instinct?"
